[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] souler456:
Update: So, the bootloop problem is now solved, thanks to [MENTION=4330322]MistahBungle[/MENTION] guiding me at Troubleshoot a failed Odin flash and did the Another option in i9100 step. But, access to Recovery Mode is still unsolved... So here's the phone problem's history:

Okay. Long-story short, after I downgraded-flashed my friend's S2 to Stock GB (which is I think a corrupted file, my bad) via Mobile Odin, the phone starts to bootloop. Here are the factors:

1. Main problem is the phone won't go Recovery Mode. (Vol UP + Power only leads to a reboot).

▬ Thinking it's a kernel issue, I flashed a Stock JB Firmware XWMS1 via Odin (which is a success), then flashed Philz Kernel for XWMS1 (flashable via Odin, which also is a success). But sadly, the phone still won't go to Recovery Mode.

▬ Before I flashed the GB, to ensure the phone can go to Recovery, I tested the Volume keys, and they are working, so a faulty/broken Volume UP key is excluded in reasoning.

2. I can access Download Mode, can successfully flash stock firmwares via Odin (tried officials 4.0.3/2.3.x/4.1.2), but the result are the same = Bootloops and cannot access Recovery Mode, again. Each and every one of them.

What I think: Since it's a bad firmware, I think wiping system/data/cache/boot.img will do the trick, but I can't access Recovery Mode for it. Is there a possible procedure like via Odin? Like flashing some files to wipe those filesystems and such?

Thanks for noticing, and a much of a thanks for helping! :D:) ;) :good:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Flash the 3 part firmware linked in Hopper8's 'Odin troubleshooting' thread stickied in General which will wipe the phone & hopefully get rid of whatever is causing the problem. From there, re-root your phone & restore nandroid or reinstall custom rom/kernel/whatever.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] souler456:
I guess that's my last bet. How does that work? Just curious. :confused:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
As it's a 3 part firmware, the separate CSC wipes the phone. And as I said, hopefully this gets rid of whatever is causing the problem. Either that will fix it, or something really small/obvious is being missed here, which can be very very difficult for other people to figure out from the other side of the world (not there watching you/etc, etc).

If you can't get a successful flash, go through the troubleshooting stuff in Hopper's thread until you do.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] souler456:
OK... The good news is the S2 is now usable (currently using), and a big thanks for you to that! :D

But the bad news is Recovery Mode is still unaccessible. When I do the Volume UP + Power, it just reboots. :(

Is it related to Bootloader? Or something? :confused:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vivek_Neel:
Use some other third party applications for booting into recovery move

( just to make sure your keys are faulty or not)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] souler456:
Volume Keys are working fine. I can volume up and down the sounds and some media stuff. It's just that there's some kind of a problem "blocking" me to access Recovery Mode. It always ends to the Boot Logo then Reboot when I do the Volume UP + Power combo.

As of now, I cannot do the "Other Third Party Applications" thing, cause it's not rooted (Stock Firmware XXLSJ freshly squeezed by Odin). And I can't root it cause I can't access the Recovery Mode, so... Yeah... :(

I was thinking of getting a Philz Kernel (Odin Flashable) for the ROM, but it will trigger the accursed "Yellow Triangle", which I'm trying my best to avoid. So, any root procedure that doesn't require me to access Recovery Mode is pretty much a helpful info for me as of now... Do you know such a thing like that? :D

You can flash tar version of philz via Odin.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sparrow40k:
Hey everyone, So early this year I got myself a Jiayu G4S (MTK6592) mobile phone. I knew that I wouldn't be able to port Cyanogenmod and all the others over due to something about MTK not releases source code for their SoCs or something..

But I downloaded a stock ROM of my phone and looked inside and.. I have no idea what I am looking at and how to remove apps, add them or do anything now.

I did notice the System.img But no idea what to do with it..

This is the stock ROM of my MTK Jiayu G4S (At least i think it is..)

[IMG="MTK ROM"]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/95353166/Untitled.png[/IMG]

This is a Cyanogenmod 11 ROM from my HTC Sensation XE

[IMG="Cyanogenmod ROM"]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/95353166/Untitled1.png[/IMG]

This is inside the System folder that everyone is familiar with, where you can remove built in apps and do most of your personal editing.

[IMG="System Folder"]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/95353166/Untitled2.png[/IMG]

Can someone please help me understand the ROM better?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nihal @A-JAX:
You can't port CyanogenMod from one device to another . You should build it from source . Even if you want to port , both device should be of same soc hardware and MT6592 has no CM builds till now .Sorry

And in your stock rom the system folder is packed as system.img in ext4 format and you can use any ext4 unpacker to extract system folder.

Your stock rom backup is used to flash the rom to your device using SP Flash tool (like Odin for Samsung)[Official MTK flasher].

And your CM 11 rom backup is used to flash rom using custom recovery (CWM/TWRP)

You can convert your stock rom into recovery flashable zip by extracting system folder from system.img and your stock boot.img and buiding a flashable zip using them.

Hope it helps !!

I have a ton of movies but there currently all on a series of external 1TB drives but I would like to have them all stored on a NAS to watch from.

I'm partial to the Synology nases. Spendy but a very nice UI, the company permits their customers to have root access, they support NFS shares as well as the more often-used sharetypes.

One piece of advice with all of the NASes: even though the companies tell you you can put them on the internet, I'd recommend against it. The firmware for them is often vulnerable to exploits and the cycle time on fixes can be very long.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] zmag:
HELP! "Ghost touch" (Screen unresponsive when it randomly occurs)

Ok, the best way I can explain what happens to my screen is a "ghost touch"

As in, sometimes when I'm using my phone, there will be a spot that gets stuck on my screen; just like if I was holding one finger on my screen.

This causes my lockscreen to be unresponsive, and even _if_ I am able to unlock to my launcher, I cannot press any buttons at ALL!

I turned on the (Developer Options - Show Touches: "Show visual feedback for touches") when I had a hunch this was happening, so I could try and diagnose where on my screen it was "touching"

This is a screenshot of where it happens:

It's on the VERY far left of the screen. And I have never dropped my phone, I take very good care of it - and it's been in an Otterbox since week 1.

If I touch it when it happens and slide my finger directly up and down; Upwards: it goes about just under the status bar, and Downwards: it goes a little above the lock ring - any further and it snaps back to the same spot.

I _just_ dealt with this for about 30 minutes prior to me writing this post from my phone right now. I had to keep holding the Power key and doing a faux "battery pull" (force restart) - I would try a normal restart, then I would reboot to recovery, then TWRP, wipe my cache/dalvik, carefully clean my screen with lens cleaner liquid (for contacts and glasses) with a soft cloth, using very little liquid as to not get any inside the phone/screen (trust me, I know you're thinking "Oh this dumb guy just got liquid in there and that's whats causing this!" - That's not it! lol)

And as of right now I'm able to use my phone fine, but it _really_ f@(king sucks when I get a phone call and pull my phone out of my pocket and am unable to answer my phone because of the "ghost touch" - then I have to spend another 20-30 minutes going through my reboot/clean routine until it works again.

Any suggestions? Has anyone experienced this? (With this phone or any other device?) Should I bring it to a Sprint store? or should I just say "screw it" and get a new phone?

Only problem with getting a new phone, is I plan on switching from Sprint to Ting (Ting uses Sprint towers, and is a pay-as-you-go type of plan) and Ting only allows a VERY small list of devices to be activated under their plan. The Evo 4G LTE being one of them. And if you purchase a new phone from Ting, they charge _FULL_ price (even more I think, for example: I believe a new iPhone is $700+ from their website) and I'm not spending that kind of money. Also, I can't get an upgrade from Sprint and renew another 2 years, so I don't think I can even get a new phone :(

Anyway sorry for rambling on, I'm just upset... This ghost touch BS is really pissing me off. I want a new phone and can't get one, without paying full price AND has to be on Ting's list.

HELP! :(

P.S. It's my birthday today, Happy freakin' Birthday to me huh? lol - zmag
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fizbanrapper:
Buy a used EVO from eBay. Expect to spend about $70 - $90. I had to replace mine just a few months ago.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] zmag:
Yeah I'm probably gonna bite the bullet and go in a different direction (thinking galaxy s5, but if I buy from Ting now it's $597) :(

Or you gotta wait 1 year from release date to use Ting's BYOD - dunno what I'll do yet :p

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] zmag:
I seem to have found something out about this...

Out of pure frustration, I took my phone and physically tried to bend it (when the ghost dot appeared) - In doing so, it temporarily removed it from the screen.

Do you think it has to so with the screen touching the sensor inside in that area?

It goes away for 30-60 seconds then reappears (probably when the plastic goes back to that spot)

Any input?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Psycario:

I recently got an AT&T Galaxy S 4 I337 from a friend and I'm trying to root it. I've seen a few blog and forum posts and it seems like there are multiple versions of the galaxy s 4 floating around like a Canadian version and stuff. How do I know which version I have and whats the easiest way to do it?

My searching led me here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2314494

I tried the [ROOT[RECOVERY] Loki + TWRP + Motochopper CASUAL way of rooting and it didn't work. The java script runs and everything but my phone's rom is blocking it for security reasons (gives a notification in tray). I've looked around in the settings to disable it but I couldnt find anything, it only wants you to update it. Debugging has been enabled too.

Coming from the US, I don't think it would be a Canadian model. And the I337 & I337M Users post claims that their way won't work on the AT&T I337 MF3 version or something which is why I'm skeptical to even try it.

So where do I go from here? What have I been doing wrong? I've been looking for an pre-rooted odin version which usually exist (how I rooted my S2 i7700) but i can't find any.
