I have a rooted STS running 4.0.3, and find that various apps (G+, gmail, ymail, chrome, browser) lock up during normal user. For example I am scrolling through my feed on G+ and the app locks up and I get the this app has stopped working message. Usually I hit "wait" and after several seconds it continues to load, but this will happen every couple minutes. The odd thing is when I am playing FFIII it runs without any issues. Any suggestions? Thanks.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wetwaterdog:
I had a stock S4 with NC5 and I rooted it, then used Titanium Backup to actually delete and remove some of the apks like Knox, S-Health, Amazon, etc from my phone. I think the TBU setting is the one below "Chuck Norris Mode" where it will actually remove the apk from the original Samsung rom.

I know this worked, because I did a phone full reset, and those mentioned apks were gone.....never even loaded again......The reason for the hard reset was because I think something in Xposed was causing my GPS to not lock locations.....so I did the reset...

Right now...I am happy with the mods I have and the way the phone works....

My question is....IF I wanted to get back to the Original Samsung NC5 rom, how would I do it.

I see their is a Samsung program called Kies and you can download the roms there....will that reflash my original rom so it is now stock.....

Do I need to start with an older OTA type file first, or just the NC5?

Or...can I download (samsung nc5 full rom) from somewhere ????? and use odin?

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ericmtnbkr:
You could try the no wipe NC5 in Odin. See the Android Dev section for NC5 wipe and no wipe files and instructions.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sponix2ipfw:
Odin of NC5 is recommended. Kies is rubbish and can even cause issues when using Odin for some people. Once at NC5 attempting to flash back to a prior build will likely soft brick the phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wetwaterdog:
thanks guys for the info....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wetwaterdog:
I was under the impression that using Odin and flashing a rom would not work unless you had MDK....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:
The NC5 tar file is the actual stock firmware, not a rom.

Has anyone been able to successfully replace and view their shutdown animations? I have replaced the boot animation to the Android L and it works perfectly.. Pasted into system/media and changed permissions but I can't seem to get the shutdown animation to work.. It just says Rebooting.. Please Wait..

I don't have any xposed modules or G3 Tweakbox effects to the power menu.. Just was wondering if anyone has successfully been able to get this to work..

Hi,

I have a few downloaded audiobooks which I would like to listen on my Samsung Galax 4s. I have dowloaded to my music folder and I can listen to them but:

1. Any time I want to stop listen to my audiobooks and listen to music, music app is not remembering my audiobook position etc

2. If I shaffle my music collection, my audiobok tracks are also mixed.

What is the proper procedure to copy my audiobook from my pc to S4 or any other android phone (which folder etc)?

Is any special app (free) which I can use to listen to my audiobooks to keeps them seperate from my music collection?

Do I need to copy my audiobooks to special folder? If yes, which folder?

Thank you,

citygatetwo
[XDA Assist] Perseus:
Please review MortPlayer This is one of my favorite Player for Audio Books. Your typical Music Players are not designed or meant for playing Audio books or bookmarking process either. Your Audiobook collection needs to be in a separate folder and your music needs to be in a different folder. For Mort, set the Audio Book folder as default startup folder.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] gray.dixon:
I've been using an MDA III for around a year now but i recently smashed the screen and i was forced to get a new one. I have now purchased a new one and the touchscreen doesnt work. I've had a look at it and i cant see anything at all wrong with the digitalizer. Therefore i'm wondering wether it could be a software issue.

If it was a software issue does any one have any idea on how i could go round repairing this.

Or how i could go around have a new touch screen fitted.

Get back to me if you have any information on this at all.

Thanks in advance,

[Android Apps and Games] Beakhole:
I would like some more experienced opinions/ideas with a profile I created on Tasker. First of all, I'm on a rooted Verizon Galaxy S4 - SCH-I545 running Goldfinger ROM. I've been using Taker for several months. The new profile that I just created is where, whenever I have Firefox or Chrome download a file, they download to /storage/sdcard0/Download/. I can't change where they download to. Now I have Foldersync that I have sync the files between the location /storage/sdcard0/Download/ and /storage/extSdCard/Downloads/ and then remove the file from the original download path storage/sdcard0/Download/. Now, in Tasker, the profile is:

Context: Event: File Modified --> /storage/sdcard0/Download/

Task: Foldersync: Sync folder pair now. Foldersync's folder pair is /storage/sdcard0/Download/ and /storage/extSdCard/Downloads/.

My problem is this:

Sometimes my download only takes a second and then it syncs. But if the file takes longer than a few seconds, it tries to sync while it's downloading so it moves the partially downloaded file, thus corrupting the file. I know that I can set up Tasker to wait any X number of seconds or minutes before syncing but it's different for every download. Can anyone think of any variables that I can program for this task that will sync the downloaded file(s) but NOT UNTIL the download completes?

I love Tasker but I don't understand enough of programming to come up with Variables or to even understand them. :confused:

Edit: If anyone knows how to go about changing the default download path of Chrome and Firefox mobile to /storage/extSdCard/Downloads/ that would be perfect too. Then I wouldn't need this Tasker profile.
[Android Apps and Games] Beakhole:
Note

Now I know it would make sense to use Foldersync to do a daily sync but a lot of files I download are flashable zips that I want on the extsdcard right then and there so I can go right into recovery and flash it. But what I've been having to do is use ROM Toolbox to manually move the file from internal to external sdcard before booting into recovery. It's a hassle and really annoying though.
[Android Apps and Games] Beakhole:
Command

Might it be possible to create a script with an app like Scripter to do this task? Maybe even something along the lines like this: When a file is being downloaded with Chrome or Firefox it creates a temp file. Would the creation/removal of that temp file be enough of an event, either with Tasker or an automated script, to trigger the Foldersync task or execute a mv command for the file that was downloaded?
[Android Apps and Games] vlamnire:
Maybe try Event > UI > Notification > Download Complete

Or something to that effect. After Chrome downloads a file it says download complete in the notification tray. I would imagine some playing around would make it work.
[Android Apps and Games] Beakhole:
Thanks for the input. I figured out a different way to do this. I'm using this app to symlink the two download folders. Now I don't even need to use Foldersync or Tasker. Thanks for your help!

HI all.

I have a Galaxy S5 ( Base Band G900FXXU1ANE2 ) rooted from Towelroot APP.

Now, can I flash a recovery ( CWN, TWRP or Philz ) directly from anoteher APP and install CyanogenMod from another APP?

When I flash a recovery, the Knox go to 0x1 ?

With the Knox to 0x1, wich are the problem? Only the Warranty?

[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lonely Raven:
I've skimmed through other's issues here, and I don't see anything like my exact issue.

This is an SM-T210R WiFi only

At one time I had a custom ROM and Recovery - all worked fine. But I ran into the problem where I let the battery drain to the point where it wouldn't charge anymore (not sure if this has anything to do with anything - just being thorough). I simply haven't used the tablet in a while.

I trickle charged and I'm passed that problem.

I can charge and power up the tablet, and I can get into the Odin Mode to flash the tablet -

but I can't get into recovery, nor can I boot up. No logo, nothing. Just a black (backlit) screen.

I've flashed the stock ROM/Recovery from January 2014, and tried flashing stock ROM/Recovery from September 2014. Still no joy - I can power up to a black screen, or I can go into Odin Mode. No Recovery, No Boot.

I'm stuck - I've done all I can think of, and spent about six hours flashing different Recoveries, Roms, and stock Firmware. I'm out of ideas and open to suggestions.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sscsps:
Strange! Did you tried installing latest firmware? Make a video of device being flashed and upload it to some place so we can see

Try flashing the same firmware twice and if it dont reply, we will find a solution, don't worry
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lonely Raven:
So I happened to be out of town at a tech conference, and there were a couple other guys there with the same tablet and several roms - together we tried the latest firmware, and some of their roms. We wound up stuck in exactly the same position. It looks like the ROM/Firmware/Recovery loads just fine, but then when we power cycle the device, we have no boot, no recovery mode, and only the download mode is available.

I could try to do a video, but after having every other very well experienced Android guys look at it, we're all baffled - the Odin software shows the firmware loaded fine, it says PASS, but then nothing. . The only thing we can figure is something is corrupted. Maybe my partitions are gone? (I have no idea what the symptoms of that would be). Maybe the onboard memory is corrupted? I'm just out of ideas. Without the Recovery mode, I'm flat out stuck.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moonbutt74:
LR,

try packing your intended boot.img and recovery.img individually for odin flash,

first odin flash recovery , i would suggest twrp for the wipe data function.

while cwm seems to have the same function, i have had better success with twrp on that point.

if recovery takes go directly to adb, do not pass go, do not collect $200 :silly:

in adb push boot.img to sdcard and switch to adb shell #

then cat /proc/partition , mount, and maybe run parted just to see output from print all

if everything looks square then dd write your boot.img.

then power off and plug in charger and see if battery screen shows up.

if good then choose a know reliable recovery flashable rom.zip or swap to your preferred recovery.zip

for rom backup-restoration.

m

in black screen boot you should connect to see if adb is doable.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lonely Raven:
Moon, you lost me a little bit. I think I've done what you suggested.

I have tried to load several recovery img using odin, and none of them work. If I could get any recovery to work at all, then I think I'd be fine figuring it out for myself from there. Both flashing both stock Firmware, or TWRP or CWM leaves me right back where I'm at - no battery icon, no recovery mode, no boot. Just the Download option. I even tried various version of Odin to see if maybe an older version would work - no joy.

What is ADB? that's where you lost me. Reading what I just wrote here, I think I'm understanding most of what you're suggesting, I just want to make sure I'm not missing anything that might get me out of this. It's really like the device simply won't run any Recovery at all. I'll grab all my files and do a couple screen shots and post here. Maybe you can suggest specific versions/files for me to try?

Thanks again for everyone's suggestions! Hopefully I get this going...I hate to just toss it out. I really can't afford a replacement.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moonbutt74:
ahh, okay no worries.

adb is android debug bridge, search xda for setting up adb for windows.

as you're running odin it means you already have samsung usb drivers installed so you can skip that step.

basically the idea is that with adb you can run shell commands directly on your device from your pc when

connected via usb cable. NOTE-the tab 3 7 t210 DOES require usage of the cable it came with.

the explanation is a little hairy just trust me on this. i'm the poor-man's goto guy with my friends and family for

this kind of stuff.

now, once you have adb established on your pc, [if you have access to a linux machine life will be a lot easier]

power on your tab normally which in your case is black screen, connect to pc using the aforementioned cable

give things a second or two then run adb as per the proper instructions which you must find.

your first command concerning will be

adb devices

if the return/output shows no device number and tag listed then disconnect and switch to odin mode.

for this test you will only be odin-flashing a boot.img for your device sm-t210[r].

if you require assistance in obtaining that image or after researching how to package that image for odin, then let me know.

Do Not use kies.... at all.... at least not for now.

m
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lonely Raven:
OK, I've read a few ADB articles, and I just can't get ADB to see the T210R. Only Odin can see the device, and only when it's in download mode (obviously).

I can send an MD5 or a full Firmware to the devices, but nothing happens, still black screen.

Any further suggestions?
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moonbutt74:
okay , stick to a holding pattern for now. i have to do some research which you can also help with.

what we need to find out is how to create an odin-flashable image that can be written to mmcblk0.

at the moment my t210r is out of reach as it is 1:34 am and rummaging through the house for it will wake

everyone. search out xda for the above information, i will do the same.

m
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lonely Raven:
Thanks Moon, I need to be up for work in 5 hours, so I'll give it a short search, and I need to crash.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moonbutt74:
Verdict, you have corrupted/overwritten your bootloader and parameter block - most likely....maybe...

Bummer - what versions of unbrick approach via external sdcard require adb functionality.

So- you would be better served to shell out the bucks for a qualified service to repair it.

If not an option- you are pretty much boned so trying the following is a maybe win maybe not situation.

in the a.m. i will pull data from mmcblk0 on my tab from the beginning up to param if my setup is what i think it is.

i'll pack it for odin flashing and post it. at which point you can choose for yourself wether or not you want to try it.

if yes you will flash it in the normal odin way, make sure repartition is NOT checked.

you will boot to odin-mode connect your device, wait for it to pick-up, select pda, navigate to the image, select it and flash.

if successful you wil have boot splash back, meaning you partition table should be reading correctly.

you will then reboot you device to odin-mode and reconnect to perform your recovery flash at which point again if successful

you wil either restore rom back-up or flash a rom.zip and swear to never use odin again. [don't do it !!! :crying: ]

anyway i will have the image posted tomorrow.

m
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lonely Raven:
I understand - thanks for the last ditch effort - I look forward to giving it a try.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moonbutt74:
okay , as a matter of course, i ask one more time for you to consider a repair service.

being said, try this first - see attachment.

extract .zip and you will have the following named file smt210r_mmcblk0.tar . this is the file you will flash

it may work, it may not.

i used the following command on my sm-t210r to pull from mmcblk0

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/mmcblk0.img bs=1024 count=32245

i used the following command to pack it for odin

tar -H ustar -c mmcblk0.img > mmcblk0.img.tar
md5sum -t mmcblk0.img.tar >> mmcblk0.img.tar

so if it works it will write the following to the following

Model: MMC M8G1WA (sd/mmc)
Disk /dev/block/mmcblk0: 7818MB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: gpt

Number Start End Size File system Name Flags
[COLOR="Red"]1 4194kB 5243kB 1049kB MRD
2 5243kB 6291kB 1049kB MRD_BK
3 6291kB 10.5MB 4194kB BOTA0
4 10.5MB 14.7MB 4194kB SBL2
5 14.7MB 18.9MB 4194kB SBL
6 18.9MB 31.5MB 12.6MB ext4 EFS[/COLOR]

if this fails you will either be in no better shape than before or you will be completely bricked.

again, consider other options. if this does/doesn't work please let me know.

m
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lonely Raven:
Does all this look right? It's been sitting here like this for 10 minutes with no change - I think that means it's a no-go.

Assuming I'm doing this right, and it's not working...any recommendations on who I can send this to in order to get unbricked?

Again, thanks for your help!
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moonbutt74:
hmm, yeah it looks like it's just hanging. are you using the correct version of odin ?
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lonely Raven:
I don't know, what is the correct version? This is just 3.07 I downloaded from one of the articles. I also tried what I *think* is the stock cable. I can run it again with some other cables, just to be sure.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moonbutt74:
okay,

try this version , same as 307 just something odd about your screen shot http://d-h.st/4VU

i have another approach but i have to find the thread on how to stitch it together again.

look for a service in your area, i don't use any as i fix my own stuff.

you do need the cable that came whith your tab.
