[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simon Sudbury:
Hi Everyone

One of the senior contributors on here has been helping me via pm but I don’t want to keep bothering him and it would probably help to open up this issue anyway.

In essence, I’ve been unable to flash a variety of ROMS suggested by my friend on my 5380i (CM7, Extremesis etc).

Although the ROMs themselves are fine (checked MD5 etc), they have been mainly failing with abort message status 7. I finally got the Extremesis to install properly but then the phone got stuck at the first Samsung Galaxy screen.

I’ve had no probs restoring to stock with Odin but then keep repeating the problem when I try to flash.

Throughout the recovery process I’ve noticed various error messages when trying to wipe data, format system etc. One is when attempting wipe data from CWM. I get E format _volume rfs format failed on /dev / Stl.11 and similar with wipe cache but Stl.10 instead.

I’ve done some research and understand that this could be due to a corrupted internal card. Can anyone confirm this with a possible solution for my model?

II also get another one when wiping the dalvik cache in CWM. It says "Unknown volume for path sd-ext" I guess that must be linked to external sd. I've reformatted this many times so don't know what else that could relate to.

Either way it seems that I am “corrupted” internally as well as externally.

I’d really be delighted to hear from anyone who ever got any ROM to work on this damn model.

Many thanks Simon

Flash multiformater and there select rfs and then clear data and cache and then mount system and flash extremiss rom or any stock based custom roms..if u want to flash cm roms then u have to also flash cm7 kernel and and make system to ext4 thru multiformater and then flash any cm7 rom
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simon Sudbury:
Hi again

Think I've tried most of those things without success. I'll try the multiformatter as suggested then see how I go.

Not at all optimistic as been here before many times!
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simon Sudbury:
Tried Extremesis again but phone still freezes on Samsung Galaxy opening screen!!

This is what I did:

1. Used multiformatter to set RFS and clear data and cache.

2. Used CWM to wipe data/factory reset.

3. Used CWM to wipe cache.

4. Wipe dalvik cache.

5. Mount system.

6. Format data, system and cache.

7. Installed Extremesis from zip.

I haven't tried CM7 as that involves the extra steps of cm kernel and mutiformatter to set to ext 4.

During this process I did note two error messages. First when wiping dalvik cache-unknown volume for path sd-ext and then when booting into CWM-Can't mount cache /recovery /latest log

Really confused and frustrated now.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simon Sudbury:
Further update

Tried flashing CM7 (kernel and multiformatter to set to ext4) but process aborting with status 7 error yet again.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simon Sudbury:
Time to give up I guess.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simon Sudbury:
No help again. Zilch in fact. What a waste of time this forum is. It's like people are just making it up as they go along.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envy-X:
How about, use odin and flash stock rom. Use all 5 files (pit file, pda, modem, csc boot)

After restars phone into recovery. Format system, data and cache. Mount everything, flash rom(redownload it just incase).

Stop complaining, theyre are over 100 android forums which you can ask for help, and this phone is just under 4 years old, every single problem has been encountered from atleast one of us, so it is somewhere in this forum, so look harder. Nobody gives a sh*t about this phone anymore and rightfully so.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simon Sudbury:
I'm sure nobody gives a sh***t, aside from my good lady wife, who kindly bought it for me. I know it's ancient history, but doyouknowot? it's still being sold in stores so has a certain currency, so to speak.

I know there are millions of android forums and I've spent the best part of two weeks combing thru them!!!!

I've also been liaising with my Indian friend who hasn't been able to assist, despite being more affable and articulate than you (not difficult!).

I don't really have a problem restoring with Odin. The errors and freezes occur when trying to install Extremesis and CM7, 9, 10,11...............

Having said that, there may be an issue as I'm only using PDA the version of Odin I've been using, and although that gets me back to stock it may contribute to the subsequent errors when trying to install the ROM. I'll try the multiple files when restoring to stock but not confident.

I think you need to go back to your comics son.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envy-X:
Sure. Good luck getting help fag.

Hi Boy

Thought you'd like to know that I installed Cryinghshame 7 on my phone and what an enormous anti climax it was:(

Couldn't have been you who contributed to the code could it? Nah, you can't read or write can you:victory:
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envy-X:
Good logic, its not like i havent been reading and replying for the last 10 or so posts.

And are you sure you flashed 2.3.7? Or do you think its 4.2.2? Shall i tell you how to "activate" it?
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simon Sudbury:
Says 2.3.7 Android and kernel as 2.6.35.7 .

Trying to get my first rom on to this note.

Ive tried twrp 2.7.1 / 2.8.0 and cwmr 5.5 / 6.0.4.3 and I havent managed to get one installed yet.

Current error im trying to get past is

"radio must be newer than ucmd3." on CWMR

"E:Error executing updater binary in zip" In TWRP I'm getting

dzee206 got me up to the latest CWMR which helped but now I'm stuck.

Currently on stock 4.0 rooted with custom recovery

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SOLVED

apparently you need a new radio from the factory image. if you return to stock using odin and the imgs for stock linked here apparently it puts an old radio in.

you need this radio to flash 4.4+ in both TWRP and CWMR

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Gil81:
That is why i always suggest to odin the latest firmware if coming from ics and wanting to flash a jb or kitkat rom… its actually a partition issue involving the modem partition. Which is very important to booting up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] oscar the grouch:
I couldnt find that info. Samsung needs a fastboot feature. odin is a pain

Details help!

Works on mine, 4.4.2 eXistenZ rom.

Ar effect version 3.1.10 both installed as normal app.
[Sony Cross-Device General] topzias:
Yes bothi installed but ninja icon not showing on the upper left side. btw, im on purexz ultra rom.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Metallijim:
Ar effect version?
[Sony Cross-Device General] topzias:
ar effect version 2.0.4.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Metallijim:
Ar effect and Ar Fun are two separate apps.

Ninja needs Ar effect.

So no ninja icon here like this.

All I can suggest is to go to settings and clear data of ar effect and ninja.

If ninja isn't there its not installed properly.

Try to install both as user apps, if rooted move apps to data/app set permissions, reboot to recovery, wipe davlik cache, reboot to system.

I take it you have a recent backup incase it goes wrong.
[Sony Cross-Device General] topzias:
maybe i hav an old version of ar effect. can u give me link of latest ar effect version 3.1.10?
[Sony Cross-Device General] Metallijim:
Hold on......

Here you go, also for anyone else if needed. Try to install normally, failing that move to data/app, set permissions, reboot.

[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ejacevich:
I just got the Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 Nook. I am trying to find out where the device or the Nook app downloads the books I have purchased. I can't seem to find them anywhere. Every folder I go to is empty. Even if I have chosen to see the hidden files, the directories are empty. I installed the Kindle app and I can find the books that I purchased from them, but cannot locate the directory with the books. Anyone have any ideas as to the location? Any information would be appreciated.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrmazak:
According to what I found on an old Barnes and noble forum you will not find them in any folder. But what I read suggests you can download them to your PC from B and N server with the nook for PC app signed into your account and then transfer them to your tab where you will have to use your credit card account linked to your Barnes and noble account to unlock the file.

So it is not easy to copy your books.!
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ejacevich:
Thank you for the response!!

I have been doing that. It's not easy, it is time consumable, but it is doable. the problem that I have is that when I do that, the descriptions and the covers do not show up. That kind of bothers me. But also, some of the books that I am looking to copy won't show up in Nook for PC. I believe they are classified as Nook Comics. I would like to be able to read them on the PC, but am unable to find a way to get them there.

I personally like having all my books on my device without having to download them. It makes me feel better about not losing my books that I have paid for and like the convenience of not having to have internet access to read a book. Believe it or not, I have been in places where I cannot access the internet to download books. (yes, such places do exist.. :) I spent 3 weeks with my in-laws with no internet, it was horrible. ) I was hoping that this new Samsung based Nook would be different. I suppose I should just get a regular tablet with the Nook app, but I am a reader at heart and like the reading based UI.

need advice..... can i flash custom rom on my note 3 (n9005) even if my IMEI is changed from the original IMEI?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spyrou007:
Hello Nico,

How can you say that your IMEI has changed ?

or maybe the good question would be : Why did you change it ?

:confused:
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vndnguyen:
The IMEI is stored on some special partitions and will not be affected by flashing custom rom.

However, before flashing any rom, you need to backup the IMEI (with the IMEI Backup tool) so you can restore it when need. Just in case...

[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moynia:
Pretty much every since the most recent update, every time I restart my Shield it makes a popping noise. This only happens when it has to play a sound for the first time since its unlock weather it be the sound for unlock or music. Is this a known issue, or am I SOL?
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aikon359:
not 100% sure if my issue relates to yours but every so often (twice today so far) my tablet gives off a loud well.. not exactly a pop but its a loud distorted noise that lasts only a fraction of a second. (and its loud!. no matter what volume the tablet is on so scares the bejesus outa me when it happens). sometimes accompanied by a very quick 1 frame graphical hiccup if in games or apps.

has me a bit thrown off and a little worried.

ill keep an eye on it and if it keeps happening ill report back so see if there's any consistency with it.

does this sound similar to what you are getting?
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chuck4100:

Wich custom roms do you most often use? and why? :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddloschi:
I've been using Cyanogenmod since January. I chose it because it was the only custom ROM that I knew by that time and I had it on my generic Chinese tablet.

Since the release of CM11 M10, which is very buggy, I've been looking forward to try other ROMs like SlimKat, but looks like most of the ROMs (at least most of the ones that interested me) are based on CM, therefore have the same bugs. ParanoidAndroid doesn't seems to be based on CM but also has several bugs reported on its thread.

I also tried Dan's GE but I think it's too raw for me. I know I can use GravityBox to get almost everything other ROMs have but I prefer if it's native.

So, while there is no stable SlimSaberKat build, I'll remain on CM11 M9
