[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prototype74:
I think you should reflash your current firmware via Odin3 again. You will get all system apps (what you delete before) back, also Google play services. You can get your current firmware from : http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=31729 (Android 4.4.2)

Installation instructions from SamMobile :

1. Extract (unzip) the firmware file

2. Download Odin v3.09

3. Extract Odin zip-file

4. Open Odin v3.09 (as Admin, only if you use Windows Vista,7,8)

5. Reboot phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons)

7. Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin

8. Add the firmware file to AP / PDA

9. Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked (very important point! Don't ignore this!)

10. Click the start button, sit back and wait a few minutes

Note : You will lose ROOT access!! You have to root again after flash

Success

Thanx for the info. Worked like a charm. Didn't even have to download the root afterwards, towelroot was still there, just had to activate it. Thank you again for your help. Your the man.

Hello,

I was trying to just un-lock boot-loader. I used the sony site for getting the key. I followed the same process and got a OKAY message as well.

But when I tried to boot the phone, It got stcuk after displaying the xperia logo. It stuck and displaying the colour animation and not going further.

How can I make the phone re-usable?
[Sony Xperia L] javad_b:
Hi

Flash your phone with stock rom after that you can use boot loader.
[Sony Xperia L] jeet0689:
What is stock rom? where can I get it? How can I flash? I am totally beginner in this case.
[Sony Xperia L] javad_b:
What is stock rom? where can I get it? You Can Find it

How can I flash? Here
[Sony Xperia L] jeet0689:

What is the effect of Flashing? I downloaded the ROM, the file Flashtool is getting blocked as if some virus. Is that file good? And I don't want to delete my data. What way I can atleast copy it? I have just done the unlock bootloader process using sony official website and still I am not able to boot. Is there any way that will protect the Same OS( Sony original ) version on the phone?
[Sony Xperia L] abhi007.john:
You should have gained some more knowledge BEFORE unlocking your bootloader.

Your phone is in Bootloop now. And unfortunately, you can't have your data back. There's absolutely NO way that you can have the original sony firmware (the one in Bootloop). All you can do is flash the new firmware using flashtool. The file is absolutely safe. Feel free to use it. Carefully carry out all the instructions mentioned in the guide.

And do one thing. Uncheck WIPE DATA in flashtool when you select the firmware. This may save your data

All the best.

Hit thanks if it helped

All I did that I used the flashtool to relock the phone and used sony SUS software did the rest thing. I had the app back-up, So restored it. All important files I used to keep on SD Card, which is safe.:)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] branmuffin17:
Hi everyone,

So, not sure if I have a unique situation here, but have looked through the forums and haven't found any that seemed to answer my question. Sorry if there's a duplicate situation posted elsewhere. My level is pretty noob...I do pretty much only the basics. I understand about half of what I read, hahaha. Previously had a Verizon Galaxy Nexus that was unlocked/rooted and running Gummy, and then AOKP, so was able to keep up with that to some degree, though things like S-Off, CID, etc., still are a bit confusing to me.

Main target: Update Verizon HTC One (M8) to 4.4.3 Stock

My current situation:

My PC has adb/fastboot ready to go

My phone is already unlocked and S-Off

Running current TWRP recovery (2.8.0.1)

Phone running stock otherwise (4.4.2, Software # 1.55.605.2 Official)

I got the firmware that Tigerstown/Santod posted http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2723159 (no boot/recovery version). I installed via Fastboot, and can confirm that the firmware took hold (e.g. radios definitely updated, reads 1.09.20.0702 in fastboot). Phone starts back up just fine.

Now, I assume I'm just stupidly expecting to see my Android version read 4.4.3, but it's still at 4.4.2. I'm guessing that it's because I only updated firmware, not software. Can also confirm I do not have the option for Extreme Power Saving mode. To add to that, I get the OTA notification that I can download 4.4.3 and update, but of course, I can't, because I'm running TWRP, not stock recovery. Tried flashing the stock 4.4.3 recovery from Tigerstown's thread, but the only thing I see is a picture of a phone with a red triangle, so I had to reflash TWRP, which is working again.

You can probably tell I'm in a bit over my head. Would like to be on 4.4.3 everything (not just the firmware underneath). Don't want to have to wipe everything if I decide to stay stock (have tons of photos and video of my kids that I don't want to have to reorganize), though I'm considering Android Revolution or ViperOneM8 (and would obviously have to wipe then). What am I missing, and what should I be doing? Or, since I'm not running any custom ROMs and the firmware seems to have taken hold, should I just leave it alone for now?

I appreciate any help and direction you can give! Let me know if you need further info that I didn't describe here.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jsaxon2:
The phone with the red triangle is what you are supposed to see. When you see that, you need to hit Vol-Up + Vol-Down and Power and it will take you into recovery. With that, you should be able to do the OTA to 4.4.3. I'm not sure if you need to flash the 4.4.2 firmware first or not. You can give it a try. If it fails then go ahead and flash back to the 4.4.2 firmware from Tigerstown's thread and try it again.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] BladeRunner:
SCrosler has posted a stock rooted 4.4.3 ROM. If you flash that you will all up to date (or you could flash Viper 2.4 or NuSense 2.0) essentially flashing any 4.4.3 ROM will get you where you want to be.

Here is the link to the stock, rooted ROM: http://xdaforums.com/verizon-htc-one-m8/development/rom-stock-rooted-vzw-ota-2-21-605-2-wp-t2874699. With your updated firmware and that ROM you will be stock, and up to date on 4.4.3
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] branmuffin17:
[MENTION=4439832]BladeRunner[/MENTION] & [MENTION=2401586]jsaxon2[/MENTION], thank you very much for your replies and the help. Looks like this was covered to some degree, and has answered my questions.

Going to try dirty-flashing the ODEX rom. I want to flash Viper pretty badly, but don't want to have to wipe everything right now. When Android L comes out, that will be fully worth starting from scratch. I have just enough patience to wait.

Will confirm shortly that everything has worked.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] branmuffin17:
FYI, dirty flash of the ODEX (just wiped cache/dalvik, left data alone) worked perfectly. Software is now reading 4.4.3. Thanks to [MENTION=426561]scrosler[/MENTION] for the stock ROM!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] socokal:
I have this problem: youtube.com/watch?v=chvRbwgT9n8

Sprint Galaxy S3, unrooted, stock

Basically one night my phone would not turn on after the battery completely drained out. Put on charger but phone would not turn on. Did the spin test on original battery and it seemed busted. Ordered a new battery, put it into phone, charged for a few hours and have the same problem the above youtuber does. The battery icon looks identical (both the grey and ~90% one).

1) If phone is unplugged nothing happens, can't start into recovery/download/boot.

2) If phone is plugged in it will show grey battery icon for like 10s, then go to a green battery screen where it shows the battery is ~90% full. The red charging light stays on.

3) I can boot into recovery mode if the phone is plugged in but if I try to normal boot the phone it will 50% get to the S3 splash screen, vibrate, and then turn off, and then 50% of the time it will boot to the home screen but wifi and data will not work (the battery icon will show 100% at this point). After a few seconds the phone will vibrate, turn off, and return to the grey battery icon swirly and then back to the 90% green battery screen.

4) I've tried wiping cache and doing factory reset but doesn't seem to phase it.

5) Reflashing via Odin to stock doesn't fix issue.

Any ideas? It doesn't seem like the power button issue because usually in those cases the battery shows as low or it will be stuck in a constant repeating cycle. This just seems like the phone is not drawing any power from the battery. Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArkThompson:
You posted this in the wrong forum, but anyway, try downloading an app that tells you the charging current going into your phone so you can see whether any power is actually going into the battery. Have you tried plugging it into different power ports around your house / using usb + computer to charge?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] socokal:
No, will try that.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] socokal:
Update: so it appears that the longer I leave it on the charger the longer I can use it while connected. The issue now is that Wifi and data will not enable, sound doesn't work, bluetooth doesn't work. I found someone else with _exactly_ the same issue who had a weird fix:

http://forums.androidcentral.com/sa...amsung-galaxy-s3-wont-turn-5.html#post3322596

The problem for me is that the Sprint version doesn't have a SIM card and I'm not using a SD card. Is there any reason for this madness?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArkThompson:
It sounds like you might need to flash a new modem. I'm not 100% sure though since I don't own the phone, you should post it on the Sprint S3 forum http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3-sprint/help

HEY THERE!

i have been testing spyapp.net 's application on my non rooted galaxy s5, i used the site's whatsapp keyextractor to save my chats and followed all the steps (( 1.) Extract "WhatsAppNonRootKey.zip" on your computer maintaining the directory structure.

2.) Browse to the extracted folder and click on "run.bat".

3.) Connect your phone via USB*, unlock your screen and wait for "Full backup" to appear.

4.) Leave the password field blank and tap on "Back up my data".

5.) Check /sdcard/WhatsApp/Databases/.nomedia exist on your phone.

If That file is exists -> Congratulations! WhatsApp support is now enabled!!! ))

then checked the directory , but the file .nomedia didnot exist, i only found some files at the database folder(mgstore...)

what is the problem ? please help

Android 4.4.4 Update for Five Samsung Galaxy Devices

[Galaxy Note 3 General] sirobelec:
Let me explain a few things which every new member seems to learn the hard way (I learned the hard way). :D

Let's take for example the i9505 and the i337. Both Galaxy S4s, both with Snapdragon 600.

I didn't notice the small, but brutally important fact that there is an ENTIRE FORUM for the i337 (I owned an i337), but tried to root it using tools for the i9505.

1. It didn't work.

2. I was lucky I didn't get a brick. :D

So, they look the same, they behave the same, have the same hardware, but for all intents and purposes, treat them like completely DIFFERENT devices.

So, if you flash the Sprint firmware...

1. Odin will most likely not let you do it.

2. Even if Odin lets you, you might:

a) get a brick, hopefully a soft one, around 90% chance this will happen.

b) around 10% chance - you get a semi-functioning device, with com.android.whatevers crashing ALL the time, no wi-fi, no calling, no NOTHING.

c) extremely unlikely option (some 0.00001% chance) the Sprint firmware actually works. And no, with 0.00001% chance of success I don't mean "it might work, why don't you try it?", it means "don't f***ing do that stupid s**t".

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] blazoner:
It would be really neat to be able to customize one of your own, and possibly include it in your .tsk files....

Heck, if you wanted to, you could even replace it with one of those boring hour-glasses....

Of course, adding the resource back to the OS might be problematic, but it sure would be a neat customization....
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] levenum:
Actually there was a site mentioned here that lets you do just that - customize the wait cursor. VJ, do you remember it by chance?

Any way you can't add it to TSK, the format won't support this, but you can always create your own MUI (built in resource replacement mechanism).

The only problem is, in WM 5 it needs to be digitally signed. It's possible but a bit of a hassle.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vijay555:
Here's the old app that my learned friend was referring to, I believe:

http://www.masellis.com/wait/index.htm

http://216.239.59.104/search?q=cach...l+ipaq+wait+cursor+hamster&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=1

But yes, it is WM2003 and earlier only. As stated, you'd have to digitally sign your .mui customisation to make it work, which is certainly not impossible. Have a look for the signing app made by BeyondTheTech on this forum. If you have Visual Studio 2005 you can make your own test certificate to sign your stuff.
