[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prataap:
I have an International Samsung galaxy S3 (GT0I9300) which is about 2 years old.

I tried rooting it using chainfire's odin installation method. The link I used is this: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=33305784&postcount=2.

I followed all the steps correctly. All went fine until the red android came up on my phone. Then after all the process was completed, odin also showed done! But, my phone did not bootup. It is looping in the Samsung logo bootup screen.

I tried all possible methods to turn on the phone, but it still stays in the boot screen itself.

Also my phone is not going to recovery mode when i press <VolUp>+<Home>+<Power button> so that i can wipe cache data, instead it just displays the android recovery logo for a second and reboots again and loops in Samsung logo screen.

I have very valuable data stored in the phone which is not backed up!!

This phone is my daily driver, so I would require some urgent help regarding this...

Please, give me a solution to make my phone work normally as before and also help to root it if possible without any hassle!!

Thank you! :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tallman43:
Couple of things you could try (1) flash a stock rom with odin this should restore your phone but you will lose your data (2) flash a custom recovery with Odin either Cwm,PhilZ, or Twrp when finished flashing you can boot into recovery and wipe cache etc.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prataap:
Thank you for your reply!:svetius:

Will flashing CWM or any of those custom recovery and wiping the cache help in rebooting normally as before? Because I don't want to get into another trouble. Can you kindly give me a link to it? And how to remove that custom recovery if i wont require it?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tallman43:
Link here please read instructions fully >> http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/orig-development/recovery-clockworkmod-touch-6-0-3-2-gt-t1719744 << Ideally you should wipe cache and data to stop a boot loop (but obviously you don't want to lose any data) so try wiping cache to see if that works. Even though you are stuck in a bootloop the cf auto root flash might have worked so you can try to backup data in recovery and see what happens.

To remove custom recovery you will have to reflash stock rom with Odin and you may have to accept the fact you may lose your data if it won't backup in recovery.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prataap:
Alright!! Thank you!! :) :)

I'll try this method and reply if it is working.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prataap:
[MENTION=972283]tallman[/MENTION], I just flashed the clockworkmod recovery and wiped the cache partition.

Then as you mentioned I also tried backing up from backup/restore option.

The cache is wiped properly.

When i tired backing up, i saw two or three lines of message log from CWM and then device just boots up and is stuck at Samsung logo boot screen itself again.

Any other solutions? :confused:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tallman43:
Looks like the root didn't take if I where you I would flash stock rom with Odin from Samfirmware (factory reset after flash) you will lose your data but you will have to put that down to experience.:fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prataap:
[MENTION=972283]tallman[/MENTION], Thanks for the advise!

Why didn't the root work?? I thought the root worked as CWM requires root permission right?

:eek: Is there any other way to just bootup my device without having to flash a new ROM?? What is the reason for the root access to be denied? Can it never be rooted?

PS: Because I don't wanna lose any data. I had about 250-300 apps which I have been using and had saved a lot of info in them.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tallman43:
Yes you can boot to cwm again and wipe data cache etc but like I said all options now involve loosing your data.Plus this is not guaranteed to work depending on what whent wrong with your cf Auto -Root flash.That is why I suggested flashing back to stock with Odin this will return your phone to how it was before it was messed up (minus your data of course).
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prataap:
Okay thank you for the help!!

I'll wipe the data or flash a new rom.

Will stock rom not require root access?

Is flashing a custom Rom same as flashing the stock Rom?

Anyone else have any other suggestion?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tallman43:
Sorry just saw your question about cwm requiring root..No Cwm or any custom recovery does not reqire root, recovery is a separate partition root is acquired through your rom. Technically you can flash a custom recovery and a custom rom without root because root is included in all custom roms.You need root to access system files that is why cwm failed to backup your data because it needs access to your system which it cannot have without root.Stock roms don't have root built in that is why you need to root them to access system files unlike custom roms which like I said have root built in to them
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prataap:
Oh! Alright! :good:

So I guess I'll be flashing a custom rom with kitkat as I'll be losing the data anyways.

All the data in external sd will be intact right?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tallman43:
Yes ext sd will be fine this is where you will need to put your custom Rom anyway to flash it.Please read all the guides in the stickies before you start to make sure you know what you are doing.Also read the stickies about backing up your efs (VERY IMPORTANT) because if you don't back it up then you may have major problems later if you run into problems.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prataap:
Thank you! :)

Anyways, I'll wait a few more days and try to figure out a way to restore my existing stock rom to work.

If not there is no other choice left but to flash a new one...:(
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prataap:
Is there any way to root my phone again and try backing up the data?? Will it work?

Hey there guys, it's my first time here, so, have a little patience, ok? :)

So, my XPERIA ZL has been giving me a headache in the past two weeks. All of a sudden it rebooted and entered the loop that i'll show in the video. I'm unable to describe it properly as i've never seen anything like it before.

[YOUTUBE]fYCwno7KPP0[/YOUTUBE]

I've tried everythong i know, but the phone has debug off (and the third parties apps too). Here's the list of what i've tried:

- PCcompanion > updated firmware (it means that fastboot mode is ok and, somehow, PC companion can bypass the debug off limitation)

- Flashtools to install stock rom

- ADB (Does not recognize)

- Odin

- CWM

- Unlock Bootloader

- Root and Kernel from DoomLord

As you can see, none of those actions would work with debug off, and i'm kind of lost now. I'ts full stock.

Can anybody provide some insight?

Thanks in advance!
[Sony Xperia ZL] LimaBEERRE:
It is dead

I had this problem too, it is "imei and baseband unknown". Send it to warranty and they will have to replace it (remember to lock the bootloader first)

Hi all,

So I uploaded some videos from my phone to Windows 7 and they are choppy as anything. Not only choppy, but it even goes all pixelated. Its quite strange! My brother uploaded it to his Mac with no problems. I have tried it on WM7 and VLC, same problem. Anyone have any idea what on earth is going on?!
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4783640:
Could you upload the choppy video to youtube so we can have a look at it? Thanks
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DelBoy:
Upload it somewhere (some cloud service) so we can take a look.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shezza84:
So I uploaded it and it was smooth. Though it didnt work in two programs?! But its clearly not the file... so confused!
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DelBoy:
When you reproduce it on the phone, how is there?

I would say its something with codec on your PC.

Have you tried play it with MHC?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shezza84:
The phone is fine, my brothers MAC is fine, WM7, VLC and MHC are all not fine. MHC did seem a bit better, but still very choppy! I dont have performance issues and I have very recently formatted...
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DelBoy:
It is you PC then.

What are the specifications of PC?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4783640:
So there's definitely something up with your video playback program. Try another program or email the developers from the current program for support.

Not LG G3 related.

Hi,

I have a problem with my task app syncing with outlook (exchange) account. When I create a task in outlook, it shows up on the phone without any issues and vice versa. But if I change the task, like snooze the reminder, dismiss reminder or change the reminder date/time on the phone or outlook it doesnt sync to the other device.

The calendar however works without any problem for changes or reminder snooze/dismiss. any pointer to fix this?

Hi.

I have a Samsung Gt i9505G. And my Rom is :Danvdh-GE-4.4.4-08302014

I don't know why but my phone have random vibrates, anytime, anywhere. There is no notification on the status bar, there are nothing who tell me why he vibrates...

I don't think it's an application, my battery works well. So I don't know where is the probleme. I tried every thing like wipe data, cache, factory reset... I have tried To flash another rom and the probleme is the same.

The random vibration is like : "vrrrrrr", 1/2 seconds later "vrr-vrr-vrr".

I have noticed sometimes it's when I try To access To the gallery... I have a extSd 64gb too.

If you have ans suggestions. Thanks you and sorry for my bad english.

Hello,

i got my hands on an old GT-I9000. The privious owner tried to root it, because when i turn it on it directly boots, without doing anything into CWM(3.0.0.5)

I guess that this CWM version muss be very buggy because it cant access any kind of partion on the device.

Even mounting an SD card is impossible!

What can i do in this case ?

ADB ? an push a new CWM version on it, if yes which version ?

Best regards
