[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] drakonizer:
In my opinion...heimdall is a little more advanced as opposed to odin. I suggest you stick to Odin...the flash might have failed because you flashed the wrong files before. From your thread...I believe you will get the PIT file...flash that and then flash the ROM and if you want, the kernel.

EDIT: I tested Odin v3.04...and it works fine with my YP-GI1.

Hi

Thanks for your help. I have the rom from the link above but where would i get the pit file from ?

Thanks - xdanewbie

Update: I found the PIT file for the international 4.2 version. I used odin 3.04 with the pit file followed by the rom and my device its now working again :) Is there any way now to get rid of the Salaxy S2 logo ?

Either way, many thanks to all who helped and I hope this thread helps those who were as silly as I was !

Thanks - xdanewbie

To remove the yellow triangle, you need to use a USB JIG, google the term to know what I mean. There are no other ways to do the same.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamDubas:
Hi guys,

I have a question for u. If I have rooted my N5 in the past and now I went back to stock, is it possible to check it?

And is it a reason to cancel my warranty?:confused::confused:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
If you returned to stock properly, no it cannot be traced.

Did you reset the tamper flag? That's the only way Google/LG would know you modded.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamDubas:
How

Is it a way to reset temper flag without working screen? I watched this video - How to Unbrick or Unroot the Nexus 5 (incl. Tamper Flag Reset) on YT and I can't flash cwm-Nexus.BootUnlocker.zip because I don't have working screen and TWRP isn't help for me. Is there any other way to install cwm-Nexus.BootUnlocker.zip without TWRP?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
If you're rooted and you have a video out, you can use BootUnlocker from play
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamDubas:
I am not rooted, but I can get root via NRT. But I don't want to unlock my bootloader, only to reset temper flag.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
You cant. ...and you should never use toolkits
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamDubas:
OK, I know now, but I didn't in the past.

Will it work if I simply flash cwm-Nexus.BootUnlock.zip via fastboot using "fastboot flash cwm-Nexus.BootUnlock.zip"?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
No. You cannot fastboot flash zips. You can either have root and use an application to do it, or you can have a custom recovery and flash a zip. These are the only 2 ways and both involve you needing video/ screen to do it. If it is not done, there is nothing you can do.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamDubas:
Thanks guys. You're awesome!

I hope LG won't check Temper flag. Rest of my phone is stock.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamDubas:
One more question. If I've flashed all stock files, my recovery is stock too? There was recovery.img file, but I want to be sure. And if not - Does the custom recovery void warranty?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Yes it does.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Taji34:
Okay, so my dad has been doing some research online by himself and decided he wants to upgrade to Android 4.3 (though he probably wouldn't opposed an update to 4.4) to try to improve the battery life on his Nexus S 4G. Suggestions on ROMs I should show him? Preferably they would not be very flashy, as close to AOSP as possible, with a majority of features, if not all, working properly (SMS, MMS, Data connection, compatibility with most apps). He uses 4G sometimes, so if there is a ROM out there that has that working too that'd be great! Thanks!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamesandruth:
Good Idea!

Good Idea!. My experience is that KK runs on lower-spec devices much better than JB.

I just flashed my wife's Nexus S (not 4G) with the OmniRom 4.4.4+Micro Modular Package GApps+SuperSU and it works like a charm. The "Mini" Gapps was too big. Stable, fast, and good battery life. She just went 2 days on a charge. That never happened with the stock roms or CM. Good daily driver. I did need to do a factory reset, as the phone would come up and then crash until I did. (Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped. Crash. Bang. Reboot, Repeat.)

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andiling:
Hi,

from time to time I reset my phone and set it up from scratch... I did it now for the first time since I have updated to .230 KitKat.

I noticed that once the screen lock gets active the notification bar appears for a part of a second with a small dot on the left side (like sometimes with low priority notifications).

The device is freshly setup with nothing installed, etc. It does not happen if I upgrade to KK w/o wipe.

That behaviour interferes with DayDream and a floating notification app I have.

Does anyone have an idea? I have restored now my TiBu backup so far not an issue but I still wonder.

[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] over2land:
Hey guys I've had the i537 ATT S4 Active since the day it came out. Rooted it the first day I saw that on here, and its got some version of clockwork mod on it.

As such, I can't just upgrade to the ATT 4.4.2 OTA. I'm not sure its worth pulling root, going back, and then coming forward just to have another ATT-bloat ROM on the phone. Is it worth it? I never use any of the ATT bloat stuff except for the wifi hotspot thing... but I could even do without that.

If not, what's a good 4.4 ROM that would work? It seems like all the ROMs are for the international S4A. I need it to be stable with no or very minimal bugs... camera, network connectivity, bluetooth, and audio are all very important to me.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
Don't do it!

A little background, I'm a long time xda lurker, never had the guts (nor felt like I had the appropriate knowledge level) to ever come out of the shadows. I first encountered this Samsung bootloader nightmare when I promised my girlfriend I'd root and and flash CM10 to her GS3. Like an idiot I took the OTA beforehand, so I was able to root but heartbreakingly unable to flash CM or even CWM recovery. I cannot describe to you how crestfallen I was once I did the research and realized what I had locked myself out of (I have had nothing but positive experiences with CM and its relatives on my Pantech Burst and Samsung Infuse). Trust me don't do it.

I guess the main point I'm trying to make is that you can always flash a stock(-based) ROM, and even customize it to look exactly like a bloatware-ridden new phone, but once you take the OTA, that's it you're done. No cyanogen, no custom ROMS, no custom kernels, no CWM. I wish someone had given me this warning a year ago with my gf's GS3 (Verizon btw, this nonsense isn't AT&T-exclusive). I know I'm repeating myself, but even without the OTA, you can still give yourself an authentic KitKat experience, whereas if you take the OTA, you're completely removing almost all the phone's customizability. And in my humble opinion, that very customization was what makes (or made, for those of us stuck on locked bootloaders, pining for the good old days) the Android experience so superior.

I really hope this helped, I saw your post and didn't want to see someone else lose their phone.

-I'm new to actually posting so I don't really know how to do this the right way but my current phone is the GS4 Active, I have two retired Pantech Bursts (one still working, IMO the best no-name brand smartphone at least as of 2012), a retired Samsung Infuse, and I have experience with the GS3 as well, mentioned above

You need adb shell and a bunch of other stuff. But once you get the phone booting to fastboot, install clockwork mod(cause I'm lazy), adb shell into it, then use parted to create the partitions.

Hi Guys,

I am pretty much stuck at updating my phone. I will explain the problem.

I got a Nexus 4 8gb version running 4.2. I recieved via OTA 4.3. Downloaded, installed no problem. After rebooting i got the 4.4. via OTA. Downloaded it and installed it Got stuck a starting apps, after 1.5h i shutdown the phone rebooted. Now it is stuck at the nexus logo.

I flashed via fastboot, i tried different official roms. The only one working is the JDQ39, i think 4.2.

I also tried flashing with the nexus root toolkit from wug... stil the same.

I can reach the fastboot and the recovery...

Any help???

I've tried SuperDave's i730 fix/hack at pdaphonehome.com, every thing seems to work except there is no way, or option to select "set as wireless stereo".

I get no stereo from bluetooth, WMP still plays sound through the device speakers.

I tried the "zoad2p.cab" from this site (works on Cingular 8125)

Same results.

I've also tried the Tornado a2dp I found here.

It's working on devices with AKU2.6 but I get the same results

as with SuperDave's fix.

One interesting thing...

If you launch WMP and play a song then activate voice siginal, the music

IS sent to the head set briefly.

To keep it active, select settings>about and leave voice signal running.

seems to work like Bluetoothaudiotoggle for about 45-60 sec.

I wonder what is missing from these hacks that we need to make it work.

Actually, I had read that the bluetooth audio toggle wouldn't work with sd's hack, so I had removed the hack.

I currently have the i-tech clip and bluetake i-phono; the clip gives me music but no calls and the bluetake gives me calls and no music......

SuperDaves' hack for the i730 (I think is based on the Tornado Hack found here on xda) will not Work at all with the i830's bluetooth stack. It seems to be completely different. After you install it and try to use it you will get OS errors if you have error reporting turned on.

AudioToggle.exe seems to work fine, except its mono.

I've also tried the Wizard hack with the same results. :)

I really hope we can find a device with the same bluetooth stack/build and figure out what we need to add to enable a2dp.
