[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brianx87:
I bricked my Galaxy Ace GT-5830 and I need help un-bricking it with a stock ROM or one of these shiny Cyanogen ROMs. I've got all the tools I need from what I understand and hopefully someone can help guide this noob through the process and perhaps help me upgrade to a new OS. The phone will boot to and hang on the Samsung logo and to recovery mode but there seems to be some issue putting it into download mode so I'm stuck at the point of connecting it to Oden for download mode.

What I have:

Bricked phone

Oden 3.07 and 3.09

SD Card

Stock Firmware S5830XWKPY_S5830CPWKP1_CPW

My issues:

Firstly the stock ROM for a UK Carphone Warehouse phone I need that I found on SamMobile and another hosting site isn't in a tar.md5 format but I'm trying another stock ROM which is in the proper format for another UK provider to see if it will work, I'm not aware of how this would effect the phone if at all.

Secondly booting the phone to download mode doesn't seem to work as no connection is made with Oden. The phone boots to an empty charging battery which will disappear after a minute or so before the phone switches itself off again. Oden does recognise the phone when it boots and hangs on the Samsung boot logo and also when it boots into recovery mode. Multiple installs/versions of the USB drivers and Oden running in admin have been unsuccessfully attempted with various Samsung USB cables. Should I try to start Oden when a connection is made it hangs on setupconnection but I guess that is because it needs to be in download mode?

When attempting to wipe data/factory reset and cache partition it returns with the errors rfs format failed on /dev/stl13 and /dev/stl14.

You forgot to tell us how you got it bricked in the first place. Was your device rooted and do you have stock recovery or CWM? Try taking out the battery and then put it back. Press and hold Vol Down+ Home+ Power button and see if you enter the Download Mode. Once you are in the Download Mode, there should be a yellow text saying "Downloading". Do post the result.
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brianx87:
I rooted the device and tried installing a custom ROM through recovery mode from what I remember and it's using a stock recovery. I've tried removing the battery and replacing while holding Vol Down+ Home+ Power button and it goes straight to the yellow text saying "Downloading" at which point the usb connection becomes unrecognised by my PC. Tried several different ports with various cables using the USB drivers from Samsung Kies and standalone drivers and I have yet to get it to recognise the device. What about "Emergency Download Mode," the device is recognised then but of course Oden hangs on the "setupconnection."
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 5617821:
It's just a soft-brick so nothing to very about :) The reason it was bricked was because you tried to install the custom rom from stock recovery mode. Always make sure to install custom rom from custom recovery mode like CWM. The reason your odin can't identify your device is because the odin is probably outdated and/ or maybe due to drivers. You can never use Emergency Download Mode to flash back stock rom from odin. When you use Emergency Download Mode, your connection will be recognized but you will end up getting set up connection error while flashing. Now to unbrick your device, just use the following thread,

[Share] All Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 Stock Firmwares (2.3.X) Ever Released

First download the required firmware for your region from the first post. Once you have done that, go to the link in the second post. Download all the files (usb drivers, odin and ops) except firmwares (which you have already downloaded from the first post) in the "Preparation" section. Now install the USB drivers and follow the "Single Firmware File Installation". Once you have finished flashing, go to stock recovery mod and do a wipe data/ factory reset & wipe cache (otherwise bootloop might occur). Then restart. Now you have successfully flashed the stock rom. Here is the link for rooting and installing CWM 5 on Samsung Galaxy Ace which you can install from stock recovery mode (always root first and then install CWM),

How To Root and Unroot Samsung Galaxy Ace?

CWM 5.0.2.6 fix for Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830

I think you need to have an unlocked bootloader to downgrade.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingamateur:
I have researched high and low. I have exhausted all efforts to fix this myself, but I’m at a wall to which I cannot go around, over, or through.

Here’s the play-by-play:

1. I have been using my I317 G Note 2 on Straight Talk just fine for almost two years, with no issues.

2. I was currently running Android version 4.3 and attempted to update OTA to version 4.4, however, I received the notification “update unsuccessful” or something to that effect.

3. I decided to use Odin and revert back to version 4.1.1.

4. The version downgrade was successful.

5. After a couple days of regular usage, I began to receive notifications to update AT&T version v4_1_1209_2_1

6. I authorized the update and allowed it appeared to complete successfully and reboot on its own.

7. The phone will not boot beyond the Samsung Logo.

8. The phone is soft-bricked, as it can access “download mode” (power + volume down + home).

9. I cannot enter the “recovery mode” (power + volume up + home); just hangs at the Samsung Logo.

10. I have utilized Odin 3.7 to flash two different AT&T stock roms, which both appear to install successfully. After receiving a PASS! Status, the phone restarts and hangs once again.

1. I317-UCUBMK6.tar.md5 (aka i317-ODIN-UCUBMK6-rooted)

2. KIES_HOME_I317UCALJ2_I317ATTALJ2_21528_REV04_user_low_ship.tar.md5	(aka I317UCALJ2_I317ATTALJ2_ATT)

11. After each installation, I am unable to boot into “recovery mode”.

12. I have also successfully run the Re-Partition with i317.pit; still no further progress.

13. I have removed the battery after every successful Odin flash and nothing further.

HELP!

Nvm I didn't read the top part all the way ya you can't go back to 4.1.1 or 4.3 I'm sure it's bootloader related I had to flash the 4.4.2 stock ROM in the android development thread to get the phone to work again

OK I can't read today I'm sorry just flash 4.1.1 if it didn't boot do a factory reset then do the OTA and it will freeze at the note 2 screen then flash the mk6 bootloader and it should boot then do the OTA and you should be on 4.4.2

In my step 10 from my OP, I've already done this. That was actually the main thread that I followed to figure this out on my own. I have followed those guidelines to the letter and am still stuck at the Samsung Logo.

Again, the flash process appears to succeed. Many people experience the freeze at the Samsung Logo and are instructed to remove the battery (which I did) and then restart in recovery mode. I am simply not able to enter recovery mode. I just continue to freeze at the logo. The only thing I can do is enter download mode.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] terpin32:
Well I'm guessing it some what upgraded your bootloader so therefore you can't go back at lease I couldn't get it to even go back to 4.3 so for the time being just flash like philz recovery and download a stock or whatever 4.4.2 or higher rom until ppl figure out how to
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingamateur:
Solved the problem!

I wish I could pintpoint the exactly method I used to get back up and running, but after trying everything, and in different orders, I can't recall the exact fix. I focused on trying to replace/reinstall the bootloader through Odin. I was able to flash the W03 Slim ROM, however, it froze at the ROM's boot screen. I reflashed a couple other times with further progress, even after waiting 30 minutes in hopes that it would break through. This was the first time that I made it past the Samsung screen, so I tried to go back to the KIES stock ROM from before. Loaded from Odin just fine, but stuck at the Samsung screen. I went back to recovery and did a factory reset and TADA!!! she came back to life. I had no luck with the factory reset so many times that I didn't try it under the W03 Slim ROM. I immediately ran the Cyanogenmod Installer and all is well in the world again.

I think taking the advice of flashing a 4.4.2 ROM pieced things back together, but I'm not 100% sure. Thanks so much for the rapid back-and-forth replies to get me back up.

Much appreciated! :good:

How do you know this? All models state '1032' under About phone > Baseband version.

You have flashed the the retail XT1032 US stock firmware and radio is not working. That suggests a) have an XT1034 or b) you didn't flash correctly.

Yes I checked the Baseband version and it does say 1032. You might be right that it was flashed wrong, but Iv'e tried it about 3 times now it still isn't working.

If this was already answered in another thread please link me.

So, i have a Moto G Dual-SIM Retail on 4.4.2 and i've been noticing some minor bugs, but i think the OTA updates would be able to solve it for me. But on the other hand, my device is rooted and i have quite a lot of things (XPosed Modules and etc) on it, as well as a custom recovery (I think it is CWM). How do i update, only gotta restore stock recovery and update normally via OTA? No need to reset anything? Root will remain along with my Xposed Modules?

Thanks in advance.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bec de Xorbin:
You need stock recovery (some have reported that philz recovery also works) and stock kernel with stock modules. Root remains. You just need to reinstall xposed framework from installer. Modules remain.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thuybang:
Quick way is flash 4.4.3 vesion for Bazil utmsds ( for dual sim).
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Quimerinha:
Where can i get the stock recovery and how to flash it? Currently using PhilZ but it doesn't let me do the OTA update.

And there's a thread on this section that shows how to restore stock firmware, but i'm already running it and would not wan't to wipe out the phone or anything just to update.

Thanks anyway guys!

PS: Now that i tried this without success, phone goes on rebooting to Philz Recovery after a while in attempt to update (and fails everytime of course)

EDIT again: Done it by getting recovery.img from stock firmware and flashing via fastboot (Android SDK), but now getting error while phone tries to update and when it boots get "update unsuccessful" warning.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thuybang:
Because u use Xposed and some module. Best way u should use Titanium Backup, backup all you apps,after that,use Root Explore ,copy whole sdcard to yr PC, flash stock 4.4.3,root and copy back all detail to sdcard, use Titan backup all apps lost and all data. Done. If not ,u still have to unroot,uninstall Xposed with all module, i mean must do yr phone like stock rom,and update it.

I just played with my old Wizard (now my wife's) and I just realised it comes on much faster from standby than my Hermes.

The Wizard's screen illuminates instantly (or near enough) when the Power button is pressed whereas my Hermes takes up to two seconds.

Anyone else notice this? Can it be fixed?

The wifi may explain this; when it is activated the tytn take a little longer to wake up. As I dont have any wizard I cannot speak about that kind of device.

The Hermes powersave mode is a strange beast. They've always been this way. I noticed it immediately too when I switched from my 8125. Also, A2DP shuts down in powersave mode and return from powersave always forces portrait mode.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] danprodan:
I agree. There was an earlier post on that. My Wizard was switching on much faster. The Hermes takes a while to switch on. On the today screen I only have the phonealarm. Frankly wizard felt much faster than hermes.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] mr_Ray:
Yes, the Wizard powers on the screen faster, but I find that it's slow for a second or two. My Hermes takes a second, but I've never seen it anything other than ready to go at that point. Of course, it could be differences in loaded software, etc.

Still, any difference there pales in comparison to the speed in general use. Rotating the screen is a 1 second thing instead of 5.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] timbouk:
Is the speed issue due to WM5's spec requiring the use of flash RAM rather than standard RAM to save data loss on a flat battery?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] mr_Ray:
Both the Wizard and Hermes run WM5.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] g00nerz:
In addition to these theories I've noted in a previous post that having either of the lock/password protection options enabled gives you a second or so of white screen when bringing out of standby.
