[Sprint LG G2] imekul:
I have an LS980 with stock ZVE that's rooted with TWRP recovery installed.

Knock on isn't working, so I'm trying to find a way to flash a different ROM (currently, SuperG2).

When I flash SuperG2, I get stuck at the LG screen, and the LED cycles through different colors. The ROM never boots, but I can go back to recovery to restore my ZVE backup.

So I guess my question is how can I move from my stock ZVE ROM to, say, a ZVC or ZVD? Do I need to do anything besides flashing the zip and wiping the system, data, and cache through recovery?

Thanks!
[Sprint LG G2] secret.animal:
Tot is the only way
[Sprint LG G2] RacerBoy:
I also lost knock on with ZVE and got it back by flashing dorimanx kernel, you might try it I've been happy with it.

Hi, i bought a galaxy tab 3 T210 a week ago, and i'm done, i'm tired of this, i put inside a new 32gb micro sd card and since i updated to android 4.4.2 there is no way to write in the card, it just became useless, there is no way to use it inside the tablet, that doesn't matter to me, the part what i don't get is i can't copy files from my pc to the memory using usb cable, i've tried everything, already rooted, used all of sd fix apps, installed the ''KITKAT sd card full access'' module but nothing, i just can format the sd and use it once, after restarting the tablet the sd card is only readable, i don't know what else can i do, seriously i'm freaking out and getting to the point that i will just throw the the tablet through the window and buy a new one, this is just useless and worthless

can someone help me? after days of searching i'm just like in the beginning

[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moonbutt74:
that patch is only a partial step, you also need to edit your boot.img's init.rc entry for media_rw to set perms to 755

or utilize an init.d script to perform the same function, or to create a bind mount to link your external card to a directory

in /sdcard and access it that way.

I think you have to downgrade to android before flashing twrp. Tizen changes stuff in the bootloader that makes it incompatible.

Make a nandroid and dl the stock firmware from sammobile just in case. Worse thing that can happen is you Odin back to stock then reinstall null/twrp and recover your nandroid.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] leszakk:
Bad news guys. I've managed to effectively brick my gear. The touchscreen isn't responding and it takes twice as long to boot now. This means I can't flash with twrp. But I'm not giving up!! I will continue work as soon as I fix my gear or someone posts logs from the latest build.

If not done right touchscreen does not work, there is only one working way from tizen back to android.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] leszakk:
Iv'e never had tizen before this... it stopped working after a bad recovery. although I have tried this (multiple times!) due to the similar symptoms. I think it has something to do with the bootloader. If it is the BL then I should be able to fix it by reflashing since the BL is on a partition of the internal mmc...Problem is, I don't have the bl files and the only way to get them is to dump them from a working gear. (hinthint). The only other option, besides and absolute miracle, would be to jtag, which I have no experience with, and it would still require the partition dumps from a working gear /:

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] westwallpoma:
Yeah. Been there, done that. First of all, upgrade to Tizen using Odin, then downgrade back to Android via the files found in the downgrade thread in these forums.

Sadly heimdall doesn't work either way. Firstly it's unable to flash the PIT (either up to Tizen or down to Android) and secondly normally recovery flashing - while completing - doesn't appear to work properly. Always had to recover by using Odin.

I always assumed the Gear was pretty impossible to brick.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] emuandco:
If i remember right, ppl fixed quite some semi bricks by using a PIT file and Odin flashing the last official Android based update. Where did i read this again.... Checking at home
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] leszakk:
Thanks guys but I've already tried all of this. If you want to make my valentines day special you could pull the partitions for me. Its as simple as running this for each partition:

su
dd if=PARTITION_PATH of=PARTITION_NAME

partition information can be obtained from an app called disk info.

If you want to make it extra special, you could pull the system and data partitions with null installed and adb enabled ;D
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] emuandco:
I am @ Tizen right now. I got an update today even. So, wont help you much I guess. If noone will give you the needed dumps, I will have to revert to Android, but lets wait a bit for the ones who still have null and stuff.

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] haryp2309:
1. Downgrade to android: touch is not working unless you wait until it shows passed

2. Flashing TWRP: same problem

3. Flashing the rom: Error
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] westwallpoma:
Ooooh. That sucks. I've not gone near my Gear in ages ; drove me nuts having to use Odin + Win7. I think I went back onto Tizen a while back. I'll do the downgrade (Ha! Wish me luck!) and see if I can extract the partitions for you. From recollection, the TWRP is hosed (dodgy lib symlinks?) so you can't even dd from recovery, but I'll see if I can extract using heimdall (with ADB debugging activated).

Update 1:

Well, after all that, I though I had bricked my Gear after the downgrade didn't work as expected :)

I'm back on Tizen ; turns out the most recent Tizen firmware will not work. I guess Samsung changes the bootloader (synopsis, Odin gets stuck when flashing zImage Bootloader and does nothing). I grabbed the original Tizen upgrade (V700XXUCNE9) from here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=53028751&postcount=1 and flashed as before (my Gear was stuck on the Kies invalid firmware screen - which is fine as it's in download mode).

So Leszaak - at least you'll get your Gear back if you try this. I'll have a play and see if I can get back to Android in a bit.

Update 2:

Spoke too soon. Am back on Tizen but touchscreen is not working. Before I go radge bongo, I'll install busybox and see what I can get from the kernel logs. Maybe a touchscreen driver that isn't part of the distribution? Either that or something physically broken.

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] westwallpoma:
Awesome. I'm in the same position. I reckon I arseholed my touchscreen with a botched firmware. Serves me right for fannying around with heimdall. Can't even do much with TWRP since adb is borking due to broken libs. Had a plan to remap the power button to perform screen events, or flash an image of null hacked about with to have adb enabled ... but this would be way easier.

If you can find the time to dropbox those, I would be really grateful. No worries if it's too much hassle for you. I've got a face-ache of a week of work to do ; and could do without the distraction of a broken Gear :)
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] The_SilverOne:
Which partitions do you need. I uploaded everything (something like 15 different partitions as per mmcblk0pX) and the reason I didn't post it public is because I think there may be some user data on there.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] westwallpoma:
Ah good point. I'd probably need system and data ; both of which would have compromisable info on it.

Tell you what, I'm not comfortable with the idea of that so - I'll leave it for now. I'll just go ahead roll myself a null ROM image when I've got time and take it from there. Cheers for the offer though!
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] The_SilverOne:
shoot me an email pmkwiek [at] gmail {dot} com. still a bit new to this but where exactly within those two would user data be under and anyway to remove it after doing dd (still kinda noobish to this procedure this was my first real use of adb shell besides basics and push pull sideload) I did delete a bunch of shtuff but from past experience some things stay behind and i dont know where they are physically. Could you also point me in the direction of how one goes about restoring from a dd, could be something cool to learn.

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] westwallpoma:
Difficult, difficult, lemon difficult (context: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7mAFiPVs3tM)

Edit:

Not entirely sure. The tricky part will be finding the waterline. As outlined in both threads, the initial goal is to get Android > 4.4 or some derivitive up and running first of all, then subsequently there will be work required to port Wear. It's likely the subsequent part that will benefit from a mind meld of our two OP heros.

That said ... I think Gear 1 & 2 do share some components, so there's a possibility that they can assist each other in porting Android. The other important thing is inspiration. Seeing how well they are getting on will serve as motiviation for each other ; inspiration is second only to beer for greasing the cogs of industrious behaviour.

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] borillion_star:
So we need at a minimum a kernel for kitkat far as I can tell that means around arm 3.0.31 source is what the JellyBean released by Samsung, as well as Triangulum.

Not saying I have done this before, but I'm willing to jump in. I have built and tweaked a few roms and kernel modules so I'm not afraid to get right into it. :silly:

Doing a quick rundown of the kernel config provided by Samsung vs Tab 3 8" there some differences with the battery charge controller.

Nothing about the camera module, but maybe some further digging will reveal more info. Bluetooth BCM4330 vs BCM4334.

I cloned the kernel watch and tab kernels, Ill be back later after getting a look at a diff of the two, if lucky some configs and some

copy paste will get something that will compile and not brick the thing. Someone said theirs overheated here, and I recall Adam

having to chill his Gear Live on Ice to get rom dump.

Anyone know how pre-undervolting works? :confused:
