[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] shiftystylee:
Hello,

Longtime flasher here, but not as familiar with gs4.

My girl has a sgh-i337 that has been boot loader unlocked since day one. It's been on TWRP and slim rom the whole time too.

I was wiping Cache, Dalvik Cache, and System (so no more rom to boot to) prior to doing a rom update and TWRP glitched out while updating partition after the final wipe operation. Screen went black and unresponsive.

Now, the phone boots to download mode only.Will not boot rom (as system was wiped) but shows the samsung custom unlocked logo. When in download (odin) mode, I see product name: sgh-1337, Current Binary: Samsung Official, System Status: Custom CSB_OEM_LSB: 0x30 Write Protection: enable

Universal android toolkit will not show device connected so Installation of custom recovery through toolkit fails.

oddly, ADB will not show device connected so cannot flash rom or recovery via adb though all drivers were updated.

ODIN will show device connected, though (blue Com 4 appears in ODIN when connected).

To recover with odin, can I flash the I337UCUAMDL from sammobile and retain unlocked bootloader?

Thanks for any and all help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jmjoyas:
Yes. After you flash MDL firmware using Odin, you can still root and flash custom recovery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] shiftystylee:
Welp, installed that .tar through odin seemingly successfully. I still see the Samsung/custom/unlock boot screen but it hangs at the ATT boot screen (I let it sit for 20 mins). Any thoughts?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jd1639:
Boot into the stock recovery and do a factory reset. It'll get you past the bootloop
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] shiftystylee:
Ah, gotcha. That will not wipe SD Card will it? i.e. /data is different than /sd, correct? ...There are vacation pictures on there I haven't backed up yet.

Many thanks again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Frankenscript:
If you boot it into MDL stock, you may want to be careful that it doesn't get an OTA update to NB4 and in the process locking the bootloader.

You might be best off flashing the latest TWRP and rom of your choice. Or your girlfriend's choice!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jd1639:
It won't wipe your external sdcard. It will wipe the internal but if you just odin'd the internal is gone already
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] shiftystylee:
Thanks Marc,

I'm keeping an eye on it waiting for it to boot so I can turn off wireless and data and root/flash recovery/etc. asap but its not booting. (will factory reset/wipe Data if I can confirm that it won't wipe SD Card)

I tried to make a flashable .tar file from the twrp recovery image and flash with oidin, but it fails.

ADB doesn't seem functional without root (?) so I can't push, pull or flash anything with ADB. Any suggestions on how to flash recovery and rom from this state?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jd1639:
The twrp Odin fails because the bootloader is locked. Use motochopper

Edit, I haven't tried it but it's possible you can use towelroot to root and then flash the twrp image in flashify from the play store
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] shiftystylee:
Ok. factory reset. Got it to boot. You were right, though. Odin formatted internal SD card. Once in a lifetime photos gone. Live and learn i guess, but I don't recall Odin formatting the SD card on my captivate when I was flashing that thing. ROM Chefs must have written custom scripts.

Time to look into motochopper loki root and the rest.

Thanks for your help guys.

btw, I have recovered deleted tiles from my PC with a utility that makes use of the fact that, in windows, deleted files are not written over, merely marked that those segments on the drive are available to write over. Do you think the flash memory on the phone would work this way?

Edit: pretty sure root/flashify is how I did it the first time. Will attempt that again.

In some of the custom Roms for our device there is a

bug that the magnetic sensor is not working. But we can

calibrate it manually and get it working. Here is how:

For all the people who want their magnetic sensor to

work,

Download advanced tools from play store, go to

compass calibration section and now rotate your phone

in all three directions. Wallah! your compass will work. It is also a very good app with useful tools.

Hope it will help someone.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] macfIy:
Hi everyone,

I got a big problem with my Iocean x7.

I have installed Chainfire 3D, but this app was incompatible with this phone, after that, the phone wont start.

I've tried to flashed the phone but I have flashed with the wrong rom... :eek:

Now the phone doesnt start, doesnt charge and is not recognized by my computer. :crying:

When I connect the phone to my computer I heard the sound of the device connection of windows vista, and this sound play every 20, 30 seconds.

Does the phone was dead or there is a little chance to repair it ?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
Can you link to what you flashed?

If it was stock firmware you'll have to reroot. SuperSU might still be there if you didn't factory reset, but it'd just be the app.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
Go to /system/xbin and check if you have the su binary there.

If not, uninstall SuperSU and try again. If it is there try flashing the SuperSU update zip. You can find the link to it in chainfires thread.

You can root other ways, but the above two are the methods I prefer.

You can always pm him, but I doubt he will be able to help much more than anyone else. I'm not sure what's going on, but I don't believe it to be the ROMs fault. But it is an older ROM... What is your current base firmware/bootloader build? Open terminal emulator and enter this to find out....

getprop ro.bootloader

I would also suggest considering a different ROM. It appears that it is no longer supported by anyone, and there are several more current ones you can use. Depends on what your base firmware is though.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] TitoNexus7:
Hi everyone,

I am new here and I want a help from experts,

I decided to replace my head unit on my car with Nexus 7 tablet, I installed Tasker and set profiles for turning on and off the tablet with receiving power, the problem is that my tablet drains the power over night and it won't work again in the morning ( Although I turn odd the WiFi and Bluetooth) I think it is because of an app called

Car Dashdroid

which refuses to close even with Tasker using root permission!

Any advise?

Cheers

[Gionee M2] maxdozie:
Well done mate. Can you please

upload the cwm backup that you

have rooted
[Gionee M2] Micheal86:
Thanks for you and your team-mates. You`ve done a great job. Recently I`ve updated M2 from 4.2.2 to 4.4.2. But could not root the same. Hope it will be possible now. But in your Root Instructions you`ve wrote that this method is only for 4 GB model. But mine is 8GB model. Now my question is What should I do ? Should I go for the Root Master option ? If this is only for 4 GB too , then please do something for 8GB also. Thank you once again.
[Gionee M2] cool_ravi78:
It's work for 8gb also and also recovery... Work for 8gb too... Don't forget to hit thanks if it helps u...
[Gionee M2] Micheal86:
Thank you for your quick reply. That means I can choose any options provided by you and you Team ?

May be it`s a novice question, but I want to know that which option should I choose to root the same ? Is there any big differences in between them ?

BTW, I didn`t forget. Yes, it certainly help me a lot. Thank you once again for your valuable help.
[Gionee M2] cool_ravi78:
Ya there is big difference... If u root using method 3rd... Then some important app don't work like titanium backup...and one more things xposed framework don't work...But we r trying to find out that solution... Its better u use method one install root master and then... Root... After that update ur recovery with we provided... This is touch base recovery we also created non touch recovery... If u need that the tell... We will also provide.. That.. If any help needed most welcome...
[Gionee M2] Micheal86:
Many , many thanks. I tried Root Master (2nd option). Follow your instructions. Install apk as a normal apk. But when I tried to root via Mulai Root. it tried for sometimes, but nothing happened. Generation some message in some language,which I could not read. After that when I checked with root checker apk, it says, No rooing access. What should I do ?
[Gionee M2] cool_ravi78:
Bro use 1st app... If 2nd not work for you... First should definitely work.. Try that and answer... If that also not work we also find a new method... First u try method 1
[Gionee M2] Micheal86:
Nope. Sorry Bro, this option has been also failed to root the same. After installing when I first try to run the app, in first screen it says " M2, and after that it says No Root Permission",and when I click on Root button, it says " failed, and try again". I`ve tried several times , but every time same thing happened. So, both apps are failed to to root the kitkat version. apart from these I`ve also tried Vroot, towelroot. All failed. I really don`t know why this kitkat version remains unrootable. When I was on 4.2.2, I got root access at first chance by Vroot. I`ve tried to root the same from last 3 days. Now it becomes boring to me. Please try to find other options, by which we can at least root this device. Best of luck. Thank you and your team once again for helping us a lot to try to root the device. Waiting for your response.

BTW , previously when I tried to root the same by Vroot, then also in first scrren it said something like that " no root permission", same thing happened with Rootgenious app. Actually as a novice in this field I cann`t understand the word, "permission", You guys please may think this. Any way I`m just sharing my thinking with you. Hope you don`t mind.
[Gionee M2] cool_ravi78:
Bro it works fine atleast 30members in our group rooted via that software... Anyway wai8 I give u screentshot of rooting method wai8 for tomorrow... Coz its so late...Now.. U can see prove of that.... Okh if u find difficulty I send u step be step screentshot of rooting
[Gionee M2] Micheal86:
thank you.

Bro, I`m not complaining at all. I just want to share with actually what happened when trying to root with these two apps. Please don`t misunderstand. I don`t have any doubt about either this method or these apps. But I really don`t understand what actually happening. I`ve tried several times with these apps, but if failed every time. I don`t want any prove. I totally believe on you. It would be more helpful if you please send me the steps of rooting. Perhaps I did some thing wrong. So, please send me the steps ( with screen shots, if possible) soon.
[Gionee M2] Micheal86:
Bro, thank you. I`ve done (actually I should say "we`ve done). Thank you once again.

Now my device is rooted. Finally the Root Master has done it. Now root checker app is saying that this device is rooted successfully.

I missed the main criteria for rooting the same with this app. Every time I tried , tried it without Internet connection. That was the one and only reason for not rooting the same. I`ve read your instructions (with screen shots).There you`ve wrote that it needs Internet connection to root.

I follow the steps and finally can do it.

Thank you for your help.

BTW, I`ve a question. Would I download and install supersu from playstore and use it as a default root app ? Because i`m more familiar with this app.
[Gionee M2] cool_ravi78:
It not gonna work...

Its show binary outdated like this

Don't worry about that app

Give permission... It so simple left Is for no where timer come and right is for yes

Click in box if u want to remember app permission like this
[Gionee M2] cool_ravi78:
Guys we r back...Many of us find error in mtk droid tools, it was not able to detect gionee m2 u after Kitkat update... like, those who use mtk droid tools have find this after updating to m2

So guys our group has found solution for that...

Step=1

First thing u have to do remove all driver from ur Pc like pda, Google Android and all others related to Android

Now reboot ur Pc and Install planet driver

U can download that from here...

pdanet.co/bin/PdaNetA4150.exe

Or u can simply go pdanet.co

Then connect ur phone with Pc with debugging mode and pda net will install driver for ur phone

And then unplug ur phone and Install adb driver...

https://copy.com/j66JFWLBHC8Y79wd

Now switch off ur phone then connect it... It install some files automatically...

Then restart while connected and now ur phone is detectable by mtk droid tools.. If not then make sure USB debugging is on... And again connect it this time u don't have to reboot...

And finally u r done now ur kk m2 detectable by mtk droid tools...

Don't forget to subscribe and thank...

This is just starting we r coming with lots of mods and tricks...

Credit=Geo baby(senier member of our group)and all our gionee m2 whatsapp group...
[Gionee M2] Micheal86:
Thanks Bro.

i don`t use supersu. I will use the default app. The only problem with this app is language and nothing else.

BTW, please make some beautiful themes for our beloved device, when you and your team will get time.

And thanks for the driver solution. Really the Team rocks.

One more question. Should I uninstall the Root Master app, as the device is already rooted ?
[Gionee M2] cool_ravi78:
Ya sure we will also do that but now there are few major issue yet to be solved with m2.. And yes u can freely Uninstall the root master app.....

Hi All,

I am looking for custom roms for note pro 12.2. I know this is wrong forum as this is for Tab pro but when i checked Note pro forum for a customer ROM, there is only one available. I am just wondering if that simply because there is no development for note pro or Tab ROM's are compatible?

I know that tab pro is separate animal with no S pen but still wanted to check. If there is no ROM available i will go for Tab pro instead of Note pro. I am not sure if S pen worth custom ROM development. Please share your comments.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dioxx:
Hello fellas, i really need a help here.

I have a I890L Brasilian with latest updates installed - is the phone of my wife. She was complaining about the slow so i decide check for a CFW or a something. I'm not new on it, i flashed cfw to my smarts since i had a P500, now on Moto G. But the question is:

1º - i rooted the S3 mini follow this thread - How to guide easiest way - and works fine. No problems here.

2º - after it i searched by a CFW and decide by AOKP 4.4.4 (this) but i made a mistake and put the files on sdcard, not external. So when i wipe data/factory i erased it (stupid, i know) and did the follow threads: remove the batery, get the memory card, removed it (to put the files of CFW - aokp4.4_golden.nova.20140805 and [GApps][4.4.2][AROMA]_Aroma_Installer_GApps-v1.5.2 - and while it happens i started the phone. Normally, jsut clean. So enabled the usb debugging, put the memory card back and proceed the 1º step again - in my mind, since imade a factory reset and it stats with the official samsung firmware, was unrooted. The things was normally, works nice and i enter on recovery using the win+adb strategy.

3º - now is the problem. On recovery, i wipe data/factory, wipe cache, installed CFW, root and installed gapps - and now i'm froze on a android logo (it's a bootsplash animation). The question is how i solve it? i don't enable the Three-button combo so i can't back to recovery; but the phone is detected by Odin while on download mode.

Can someone help to solve it and help me to flash a CFW on the proper way?

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] JGress:
So, I went to look at the time on my phone and it wouldn't turn on. I held down the power button and the back & home buttons just blinked a few times but it didn't turn on. I plugged it into the charger and it's not charging, no LED light or anything, and it won't turn on.

Does anyone know what could have happened or how to fix it?? I noticed earlier it was running a little hot after some app updates. could that have something to so with this? Is my phone dead??
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] disconnecktie:
There have been several reports as of late where the same thing has happened. Were you running a custom Rom and kernel?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] brymaster5000:
What recovery were you running?

Sent from my Lunar Ecliptic One.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] disconnecktie:
How come this would be caused by a recovery issue? My phone died just today because I forgot my charging cable at home. I charged it up just fine. If the recovery was the issue I wouldn't have been able to charge my phone up after it died. He overheated his phone which seems to be the link to every other case of this happening.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Uzephi:
Recovery "might" be an issue, as if recovery cannot respond to a "power on" it will not turn on. Most recoveries will respond to a "adb reboot" command. That may fix his issue... If his PC recognizes the device. I know certain TWRP had issues with the DNA and it could have bled to the m7
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] disconnecktie:
Wouldn't this happen a lot more often if the recovery caused in considering that people run out of battery all the time?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Uzephi:
Depends if they are using a commonly used recovery, or if the MD5 matched. I never let my battery go below 30% as most users should try their hardest to not also, fully draining li batteries drastically reduces their life and capacity.

Edit: it is also good to see everyone's setup who has this issue so we can find the common thing every time it happens.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] disconnecktie:
Yea I generally try to not get way to low. It's a scary thought though that if you happen to forget to charge your phone it might not charge back up. That's why I was interested in what rom and kernel he was using. Plus it seemed to be that most of the people who couldn't recharge had an overheating issue before hand which is more or less why I don't believe it is a recovery issue.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] JGress:
Ok, for some reason it's working again. As I said before, it was just completely dead (wouldn't power on, no LED light when plugged into two different chargers, two different outlets) then I tried again about an hour after all the problems started and it powered on again.

When it came on, it had a 70% charge, so I put it back on the charger and charged it back up to 100%. However, after about two minutes being unplugged, it dropped down to 95%. It's never done anything like that before and this is the first time I've had any kind of problems with it in the year I've had the phone.

Could this have been some sort of temporary battery issue? I'm so confused. Are there and diagnostic tools I can use to try to figure out what happened?

I'm using NuSenseONE-Max_RC6_111313 (4.3 based), not sure what kernel and TWRP recovery. Also, I usually drain the battery down to 15% before I charge it.

Also, this happened after I updated about 20 apps.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] disconnecktie:
That almost sounds like your battery might be going out but maybe you should update your rom and recovery just out of precaution. You'll need to update your firmware as well since you're probably still running jb firmware considering the age of that rom.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] JGress:
Wait... I thought a ROM and firmware were the same thing.
