[Samsung Galaxy Mega] krazykipa:
Lately people have been reporting issues with not being able to restore to 4.4.2 due to Samsung not releasing a stock firmware file. This can be a problem if you tried to downgrade to 4.2.2 and have issues like no sound, no IMEI/baseband, no WiFi. Time to fix that!

Here is a prerooted stock image for the SGH-I527M, made and tested by me. It's based on the latest 4.4.2 NE5 firmware (build KOT49H.I527MVLUCNE5) and is Odin-flashable.

DO NOT FLASH IF YOUR DEVICE IS NOT THE CANADIAN SGH-I527M

It contains the following components from build NE5:

-System (Rooted w/ SuperSu installed)

-Kernel

-Modem

-TZ (Trust Zone)

Steps if coming from a non-Samsung ROM (CM):

-Wipe /data and /cache from recovery (factory reset)

-Reboot into download mode

-Flash with Odin

-Wait AT LEAST 3min, first boot will take a while

-Done!

This package does *not* include any bootloaders, so it will not install Knox. However, if Knox is already present it will trip the warranty flag. Since it is prerooted, you will see the message "Set warranty bit: system" and it will set Knox Warranty Void to 0x1.

Note: If you are still on the 4.2.2 non-Knox bootloader, the ROM will work but you will not be able to charge the phone while off. Updating to the latest bootloader (aka Knox) is currently required for that function. Without it, your phone will turn on when plugged in, instead of showing a charging animation. All other functionality will work fine.

If you would like to update to the latest bootloader (Knox included), here is a link:

BL_I527MVLUCNE5_REV00_user_low_private_NO_CERT.tar.md5

Now, I've never asked for donations before, but a couple weeks ago my house was broken into, and my main PC, laptop, along with a bunch of other stuff, was stolen. I'd appreciate any donations that may come my way to soften the loss:

My PayPal:

Regardless, and without further ado, here is the link for the download:

ROOT_KOT49H.I527MVLUCNE5.tar.md5

Enjoy!
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] M1ch3lM:
Not working for me

-Wipe /data and /cache from recovery (factory reset)->done

-Reboot into download mode->done

-Flash with Odin 3.09

AP->checked with file

auto reboot -> unchecked to be able to wait for 3min

"Set warranty bit: system" and it will set Knox Warranty Void to 0x1. ->yes it did

result : keeps rebooting

Keep in mind :original problem comes from a repaired screen that trigger a Samsung update... I am gonna keep trying those solutions and YES! I'll be happy to donate to get my Canadian Samsung galaxy Mega SGH-1527M Back...
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] krazykipa:
Your issue is likely due to a non-genuine screen replacement rather than a software issue. The 4.4.2 update will not allow any third-party digitizers to work. Make sure your touchscreen ribbon cable has a genuine Synaptics controller.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] verticleman76:
This sounds like a good one to have. So my question is I'm using right now CM11 4.4.4 and it's a different kernel I am using for my phone. My phone is a I527M but it's using a American IME. So if I load your tomorrow here like you described will my phone be stocked again? And will it change my kernel without probs?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] krazykipa:
That's correct.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] verticleman76:
Holy crap!!!!! It works!!!! I have been wanting to go on stock again for awhile now. Everything works perfectly. Thank you for this. Great job!
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] blackrose1:
My imei and baseband is unknown on 4.4.2

How to fix it guys?

I need nvm file of this model..

I527m nvm file...

Please help me
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] lehuutai130:
Dude you are so awesome. Thanks so much. My phone is dead for like 4 months and you really save my life. It's time to go back to mega. Really appreciate that
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] verticleman76:
OK one problem here with this. Works good but when phone is powered off and charging the battery, it won't charge! Phone turns back on and you have to charge with the phone on. It's not right.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] krazykipa:
Sounds like the new bootloader is required for the kernel to load from a charging state, then.

There is a link for that in the Q&A tab, if you are willing to upgrade to it, let me know if it fixes your issue and I will add it to the OP.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] verticleman76:
I will upgrade too it then. I'll wait for you to make the fix. Other than that it works great.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] thebreezer:
Awesome, thanks for the fix for my Galaxy Mega that has been sitting in a ziplock for the past few months :)))) WiFi and Data are back up again!
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] verticleman76:
The new BOOTLOADER fixed the problem alright. The phone now charges when it's turned off! Everything works PERFECTLY now. Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] krazykipa:
[MENTION=2208073]thebreezer[/MENTION] Good to hear :)

[MENTION=5205081]verticleman76[/MENTION] Thanks for confirming! I'll add that info to the OP.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] lehuutai130:
Hi, may I ask that when installing this rom, is my phone unlocked ? Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] mrao:
If you mean carrier unlocked, NO, it wont
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Xyphir:
Thanks for this, the phone wifi and base band is back, but back to the original problem of touch screen not responding, The screen was replaced before the 4.4.2 update, is there any work around to make it usable again? is there any custom roms that i could try that will keep wifi and base band but have touch screen working?

Thanks for any reply hopeful to get this phone usable again :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] TheRavage:
Yippee

You are my hero man. I've been trying to find a way to root this mega for days. Your firmware works perfectly, thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Audeath:
Hi guyz! Im really eager to try this since my Mega is useless for months now. Problem is Odin only detects my device when its booted and not in download mode, anyone have this problem?

(EDIT) I've tried on another PC and it worked so im doing it right now :) I'll post the results.

So the results is : The phone boots with the new rom, i see in the top right corner that it now have a cell signal and all BUT no touchscreen at all so i cant even unlock and browse in it. :(

---------- Post added at 09:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:45 PM ----------

Im in the same boat as you my friend. Right now it's either touchscreen but no sound and no wifi or everything but touchscreen hahaha
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] krazykipa:
The quickest way to fix the no touch issue would be to order a genuine touchscreen. I am working on patching the kernel to fix this, but unfortunately it will probably take quite some time, as I've never modified system-level drivers, and I have exams and other priorities to attend to.

For anybody else that can contribute, the offending code is probably in synaptics_rmi4_i2c.c specifically fwu_start_reflash() function. The driver attempts to update the firmware, but fails to do so due to the IC not being made by Synaptics (in my case, following messages are generated):

fwu_check_skip_reflash:FW_version Bin:0x1A, FW_version IC:0x19
fwu_wait_for_idle: Timed out waiting for idle status
fwu_start_reflash: Failed to do reflash
...
synaptics_rmi4_query_device: Non-Synaptics device found, manufacturer ID = 14
...
synaptics_rmi4_i2c: probe of 3-0020 failed with error -110

I am guessing we can remove the firmware updater system so that no errors are generated. I don't want to risk forcing through the firmware update and bricking the already flaky Chinese TSP controllers on everybody's screens :)

It's possible that a firmware update is required for the TSP to work, but the code suggests otherwise as there are exceptions made for factory firmwares and old panel revisions. The only sure solution right now is to buy genuine parts.
[Mi 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 5402212:
Hey Guy,

I got my Mi3 a few days back. Since then whenever I place my phone on bed or any bumpy surface or shake it, it rattles.

So to check what exactly it is, I hold down my volume rocker and power button, so that they wont make sound & hit my finger a couple of times over the camera lens & on flash, I was shocked to hear that annoying sound.

I just want to know, If that's normal or I got a faulty Mi3?:mad::confused::(

No problem with camera, but that rattle sound is making me sick.

PS: I sometimes hear tick sound while opening and closing camera app.

Thanks :)
[Mi 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reneftw:
The sounds are normal, are coming from the lenses.
[Mi 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 5402212:
Um, I was just worried, as some said their Mi3 have no such sounds or rattling.

Wbu? Try bumping it on a cushion, check if that sound is coming. Or when you shake it.

Sound be like as if some part in the phone is loose. So..
[Mi 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] system.img:
I tried shaking my phone but I don't hear any noises.

Can you try turning the camera On and shake it to see if it still makes the sound? I have read about this in the S5 forums and people say it is normal and disappears when launching the camera app.
[Mi 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 5402212:
Thanks for your reply. I have tried what you had said but it's still making that tick sound. Not i am really annoyed.

Still waiting for some more replies.. :/
[Mi 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 5402212:
Though I am not sure but I just saw a Video in which a guy opened an Mi3 with each part apart.

There I see few screws around the camera compartment, it might be possible that one of that screw is loose and hitting the alloy back of the phone. When I hold the back of the phone and shake, I want hear any sound like that.

*Just wish what I thought is making that sound.*
[Mi 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Rainman:
Mine seems to be doing the same thing. Maybe it's normal?
[Mi 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 5402212:
Bro, I have figured it out, not quite sure but sort of. I think the sim ejection pulley is what making that sound.

Still I am not that sure.

Btw thanks for your reply. :)
[Mi 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Dork Knight Rises:
Happens to me too...escpecially when the phone vibrates...

And the click for the Camera happens cause of the lenses, that's nothing to worry about...
[Mi 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaucha:
Same problem here in my mi4i it sound and making me frustrated. From where it come :
[Mi 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TofikLupus:
Guys it's just the lens, it's happening to me as well and it isn't anything bad, the lens cover clicks as it opens when the camera app is started, while it's not started, the lens is closed, but not rock solid locked, so it rattles whenever it gets some stronger hit. After 2 months of usage, i'm totally used to that sound :D

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] lebertian:
So here's a weird thing I'm experiencing:

I left my phone charging overnight, like always. In the morning, I saw the "fully charged" notification, so I unplugged it. To my surprise, the battery percentage dropped instantly from 100% to 96%.

Then, after thinking that maybe I was crazy and it never actually showed the "fully charged" notification, I plugged it in again. The phone said "charging" for a few seconds and then showed again the "fully charged, unplug device" notification. I proceeded to unplug it again and instantly the battery indicator changed to 96% again...

Anyone having this issue? Is my battery messed up already?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] AcquiredIntellect:
Yes that's normal....it's the way the software is nothing wrong with your battery even when it says zero you still have like 30 percent battery left...notice when your phone is dead you can still go into different modes....there used to be a number you could dial into the dialer and it would unlock it to be able to be used. But then when it's needed it's really dead...I think that's why they stopped that or maybe even it still exists and we don't know...but that's normal...that's the way Samsung coded it...every phones battery indication is just what has been programmed not an actual gauge for the battery...HTC is very renowned for doing that...when my phone died I could go into fast boot and it would stay there a very very long time with a bright white screen and even get nice and warm without shutting off...your good dude...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Android300ZX:
I think to recalibrate battery you have to let it drain completely until it shuts off. Then you have to charge it while it's off until full. Afterwards turn it on and charge until full and it should recalibrate. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

You need to port it yourself as we do not own your device therefore to keep sending files to & from for testing is annoying & not practical

Also I don't know why you would want to port this rom as it's just cm7 built from source - there's no theming or any special modifications

To port a rom you need a base rom - that means you must have a working cm7 for your phone already

Now do you see why I say there is no point in porting a non themed cm7 as it's just cm7 from source

If you don't have cm7 for your phone you will have to build it from source - only someone with your phone and coding knowledge can do that
