One Last Try -- Then, I Give UP!!

Read the following post on how to flash ANY Wizard (yes, that includes the 8125) --

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=1177659&postcount=1

Now, follow the directions in that post WORD FOR WORD and STEP BY STEP. The only reason it wouldn't work is that you're NOT READING and/or NOT FOLLOWING THE INSTRUCTIONS STEP BY STEP.

If you CAN'T read and follow directions, then don't be trying to flash different ROMs to your phone. If you're not willing to do what's necessary to help yourself, then noone else is willing to help you, either. . . especially when your problem has already been replied to with the same information over and over in 2 DIFFERENT THREADS now.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ecomajor:
Let me detail you the exact steps I have taken. I have read through those posts, many times so I am certain I took those steps

1)device starts normally goto step 3.6 since unsure if unlocked.

2) read farias thread

3) download buttons rom

4)attempt to downgrade rom - failed

4a)tried 1.08 rom instead of button - failed

4b)tried wizard love- failed

5)download lokiwiz

6)followed all directions -failed - since was not able to downgrade rom.

Obviously these directions are not 100% foolproof - I know that the first time I tried installing WM6, I did not read through all the threads and after much effort I discovered that if I installed the official cingular 225 rom then I could get my ppc back working but since then I have had no luck getting flashing to work. Please tell me what I am doing wrong because noone has had my exact situation. there is no need to act all holier than thou and accuse me of not reading because since I screwed up the first time I have read through all these threads numerous times.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] mfrazzz:
Ok, one more thing to try (shot in the dark, but I have no clue what is happening here)...

On your PC (its running XP, right???), do you have Firewall and/or Antivirus? If so, reboot your pc and don't start anything and then turn off your Antivirus and Firewall programs (I found a couple of threads where people were getting the error 260 when ZoneAlarm is active). Now try flashing the button rom. Don't try doing any other roms, don't try doing lokiwiz, just try to get the button rom on. If that works, then continue on with the steps here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=285435

You might even try booting your computer into safemode and try flashing that way (I doubt activesync would be there, so put the phone in bootloader mode, and if you see USB above the left softkey then you should be able to flash it this way from safemode. Never tried it, but it pretty much eliminates anything that may be on your PC thats causing problems).

If none of that works, then get back to an official stock rom again and report back here with exactly what you did, what you saw, and all. Don't worry about the post being long, because to me, too much info is better than just short posts that don't tell us anything. Also, only update this thread. Forget all the other threads you have stuff going on about this problem.

Final question, I asked this before (and I don't remember if you answered or not)... Have you tried to flash your device from another PC?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] newbie2:
And I've attached the ROM Update Utility Readme.doc that describes the error messages and how to fix them.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ecomajor:
The weird thing is I never get code 260 with the cingular rom update just with the other roms. I will have to try the disabling all firewalls, antivirus etc at home bc at work there is all sorts of stuff i dont want to mess with. Problem if I do it in safemode is then the activesync driver wont be loaded and it will give me an error for that.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] mfrazzz:
I've never tried it in safemode so I don't know if that will work or not, it was just an idea as we are grasping at straws here. But if you boot to safemode, and with the phone at the bootloader screen (hold down the camera button while you turn it on to get to the "rainbow" bootloader screen), if it shows USB above the left softkey then the computer and phone are communicating and Activesync does not matter. BTW:You can try the safemode way there at work as you will have no network connectivity in safemode so you don't have to worry about violating security policies.

You still have not answered my one question directly... Have you tried flashing the button rom to your phone on multiple computers? Or have you always done it from the same PC? And are the PC(s) that you are using running Windows XP?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] mestrini:
What DOC chip does your device have? G3 or G4?

If you have a G4 then i guess you ruined your bootloader since G4 devices don't have and don't accept 1.xx IPL versions!!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ecomajor:
I have tried button from multiple pcs. This time it gets up to 98% on button and then dies and it gives error 302 - update error for the button. This is a problem that I was having before.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] newbie2:
Did you read the document I posted?? If you're getting Update Error 302, you're not going to be able to recover with anything other than the stock Cingular ROM.

Chances are that you did indeed ruin the bootloader when you tried using the ShellTool to flash a G3 phone. And I doubt seriously that you'll be able to do a warranty exchange if you can run the stock ROM successfully, so I'm afraid you're stuck now with the stock-shipped ROM.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ecomajor:
So you are saying there is no way to fix the bootloader (like flashing it or soething) I was figuring I had screwed something up. I actually had read the document before but thanks for your help. Why is it that you can fix many other issues with the 8125 but not the bootloader?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] newbie2:
I'm not saying it CAN'T be done. What I AM saying is that in the year I've been registered and active here, I've not seen any posts/threads about recovering from a bad bootloader. But that doesn't mean that there ISN'T a way to do it.

You might want to do a search of the Wizard section for bootloader error or recovering bootloader to see what might come up.

Good Luck!!

i want to create a pattern lock for android devices. its my mini project and i need to do myself.

i don't know where to start and i need help. i need a basic java code for the lock.can any one help me.:angel:
[Security Discussion] nightly_shadow:
Hi, I bought locked IMEI Z2 off ebay without knowing it. short story, I got my money back but there one thing that surprise me.

the my IMEI is from other phone LG L5 to be precise and I'm pretty sure it's a Legit Z2 as well, not some chinese made knock off. I also checked my other phone that I got from new (S4, and HD2) they all got the right model.

What I want to know is, is it possible to change the IMEI number? ASFAIK you can't change xperia IMEI number because it's stored somewhere in the partition. and you can't change it because it is security signed and if you change it, would make your device completely useless or hardbricked, unlike softbricked device that you can easily fix.

imei.info
[Security Discussion] sowers17:
you should probably return the phone because even if you could change the IMEI, you won't be able to generate a valid IMEI for it.
[Security Discussion] nightly_shadow:
Well, or you could just put another phone IMEI like he did. I don't know if its possible. I'm not condoning any illegal attempt to change IMEI of stolen phone, just acted out of curiosity. I returned the phone to seller as well.
[Security Discussion] shadowcore:
Its a stolen device.

Whether its a knockoff or not has no relevance.
[Security Discussion] snapper.fishes:
IMEI can be modified, whether intentionally or accidentally. However, because of the legal implications, no one here will teach you how to.
[Security Discussion] TheMoroccan:
the best thing happened that u got ur money back, cause you'll never make it work with an other IMEI other then its IMEI.
[Security Discussion] howellzhu:
IMEI can be modify by some sw tools. I suspect it is not a new phone.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BenDroid1:
Ok guys ..hi there. I am running PAC ROM 4.4.4..ok guys am having an issue ..i originally got this phone (i9500) with 4.4.2 kitkat touchwiz i rooted it and installed twrp 2.6.0.0 and all was well..Then i decided to install the ozcan rom 6.3 ...after flashing the rom...the first boot was stuck on Samsung logo ( and yes i advance wipe my phone several times using the mke2fs format) and this rom is for my model! So i was disappointed... Then i wiped again and tried to restore my backup which also led to a bootloop..soo i had no choice but to flash a next ROM... The rom that worked was 4.2.2 wanam lite (jellybean) ..i got tired of it and went to pac ROM now.i wanted to try the ozcan rom again.. It didn't work! I tried arrow rom..it didn't work ..and these worked for other i9500 users..so am wondering is my recovery outdated and not doing it correctly ? So the main question is WHY CANT I INSTALL A TOUCHWIZ KITKAT ROM??
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
You could try updating recovery. And maybe try to flash it via Odin (if that's possible)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BenDroid1:
Hi guys ..so it turns out that my recovery was outdated (twrp 2.6.0.0) its working great now..i love this ROM i don't think i'll be changing for a while. ..Until 6.4 gets out lollipop based ....So yea guys now i have 6.3 ozcan rom and the latest philz touch recovery :) ...i flashed it via twrp

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Temoorzul:
Greetings I have the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Verizon flavor and I used the most popular Towelroot which was simple, amazing, and just works however an OTA 4.4.4 has reared its ugly head and I know it would probably fail but I was wondering how to delete the update and what is the directory? I used DisableService and unchecked the google services for the OTA update so it does not continue to bug me however I know the update is still there and I would like to maybe rename it to .bak or delete it from the system folder so just in case Verizon tries to install it on its own accord. So question is where is the directory and what file should I delete or rename :)

Thank You in advanced

So an update I just frooze the SDM.apk and that seemed to for now stop the annoying update request :) I think this is temporarily fixed still would like the proper way to stop it from trying to update

Also for the individual who replied to my post towelroot works with certain builds so go to the Web site and check your build on the Note
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] christianpeso:
This is not temporary and it IS the correct way to prevent further updates on our devices. Disabling or completely removing sdm.apk is the way to go. Should not have to worry about that update now.

Thank you for the info and clarification should I deleted that 500 mb update and where can I find it and what is the file name? I read somewhere to rename it .bak but I can't seem to find it

Hi

It is a very simple question. Can we root this model? It's on Android 4.4.2. Very new.

Hi.

Did you get anywhere with this device? I believe they come rooted or partially rooted, but I'm having problems with mine.

Let alone from flashing a custom rom, I can't make use of Titanium Backup or Greenify even after installation of SuperSU.

Yes, Kingo Root's APK successfully roots the device.

If it gets stuck at 90%, wait about 2 minutes, and then use the Back button to exit. Kingo Superuser will be installed.

Change Log:

v. 1.5:

Added Twitter button on main page.

v. 1.4:

v. 1.3:

Banner ads no longer present on the game page, this is to avoid clicking out of the game and losing progress.

Banner ads added to non-game pages.

v. 1.2:

All Pro features have been added.

Ads remain.

v.1.1:

Fixed "Ad Bar" on game page to fit screen better.

[Android Apps and Games] ArmoredFury:
what's the difference between the paid version of the free?:confused:
[Android Apps and Games] LochdownStudios:
Both have the Timed and Click Modes, but then...

Free Version

[Android Apps and Games] LochdownStudios:
Up :3
[Android Apps and Games] Mur-Mur:
Very nice.

Beautiful game. :)
[Android Apps and Games] Entangled Multiverse:
Just tested it, unfortunately alone, but I can say that it will be a lot of fun when I find someone else to play it with me together. Maybe some sort of AI mode for singleplayer could still be good, if you have noone nearby to play it?
[Android Apps and Games] LochdownStudios:
I actually do have a "solo" mode in the Pro version.

It runs for 15 seconds, and there are 2 colours (yours, and the computers). A single tile randomly changes ~ every 50ms I believe I set it for. And every wrong tile results in -1 points.
[Android Apps and Games] Freddy_Five:
Played it yesterday as a drinking game on a party.. bad idea, BAD BAD idea... I am still feeling dizzy. AWESOME ;)
[Android Apps and Games] LochdownStudios:
Haha! Never thought of it being used that way! Hope you/your phone/tablet is okay too! :P

Thanks for trying it out! If you enjoyed it, please rate/review on the Play Store :D Very much appreciated!
[Android Apps and Games] LochdownStudios:
up
[Android Apps and Games] Freddy_Five:
You need to create a Google+ account to rate/review apps in the Play Store and I am really kinda against that, sorry!

And yes, my phone is still working fine and I am also quite okay now, thanks for asking :)
[Android Apps and Games] LochdownStudios:
Dang! I'm sorry :( Wish you didn't need an account. I think they did that so they would reduce bots rating/reviewing apps.
[Android Apps and Games] LochdownStudios:
Up! Please share :D
[Android Apps and Games] LochdownStudios:
UPDATE:

Version 1.1

Fixed "Ad Bar" on game page to fit screen better.

If there are 100 installs by February 28th, 2015 I will unlock a pro feature for free!

[Android Apps and Games] neone01:
like the idea, but not the graphic, i think you should work on the graphic of your game, it might attract a lot of people:)
[Android Apps and Games] samsonz:
I really like the idea of playing with colors. Good job.
[Android Apps and Games] LochdownStudios:
Thank you both! This was one of my first apps, so graphics haven't been a strong feature for me.

Also.... New Updates:

v. 1.4:

Fixed radiobuttons on main page.

v. 1.3:

Banner ads no longer present on the game page, this is to avoid clicking out of the game and losing progress.

Hi everyone , I was not sure where to post this so i'm sorry if this is in the wrong place , so i just found a bricked tab and the guy who owned it gave it to me because he said its completely screwed , its a LAVA E-tab z7c . So right now if i try to switch it on , i see a screwed up boot image , half of the screen has random colors and the other half displays android. On holding the power button and the volume down i got to the fastboot mode. I found the stock ROM online and tried to flash it using

1>"fastboot -w "

2" fastboot flash zip update.zip "

OUTPUT -->

root@txjoe:/home/txjoe/Downloads/revoc/a# fastboot flash zip update.zip

sending 'zip' (210762 KB)...

OKAY [ 19.879s]

writing 'zip'...

FAILED (remote: partition table doesn't exist)

finished. total time: 19.881s

Now , i can't really find any custom ROM's or Recoveries for this tab. And im still stuck at fastboot , no adb access !

Can anyone help me out ? is this tablet dead yet ?
[Android General] BenDroid1:
I'll see if i can help...so what u need is to repartition the phone which is usually done by flashing it with a phone tool for it. ..but u have to flash it with a pit file for the device which am assuming u dont have.. So next thing you can do is try to format with fastboot or find a command or google fastboot tools and commands on repartition because the boot image is partition which is corrupted to install a ROM

Press thnx if i helped :)
[Android General] an[]n:
thanks a lot , but i can't seem to find anything online about how to partition this tab , im clueless :confused: , can't find a PIT file either

Look for something called sp flash tool..and download it..then google how to use it..it should have something similar to that
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] marscandybars:
With Voice Command implemented in some roms, editing name recognition seems to work correctly. Now I don't see the place to edit it. I will explain:

If I had someone listed as John Doe, If I edit that contact (and have windows voice command installed) the name in the edit options would look like: John Doe "John Doe"

The John Doe in quotations would be the command for voice command. There fore if I changed the name in quotations to: John Doe "Johnny",

then Johnny woul be the command for voice command.

So instead of saying "Call John Doe's Cell", now I could say "Call Johnny's Cell"

But I noticed after i installed Voice command 1.6, i no longer get this option to change their command name :(. Is there some registr fix for this or some way to change it back in the settings that i don't know?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
Use the Nickname field in the contacts. Then Voice command will recognize it based on the Nickname or the full name. I do this and it works.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] marscandybars:
Interesting... I'll give it a shot... with some of the other roms, the command name was in the quotations...

Thanks will try :)

UPDATE: Works :) U rock! With some of the other roms, it automatically sets the nickname for you when voice command was implemented. That's why i always saw the quotations. Works like a charm! Thanks again!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] lovingyou:
thanks for the fix , i have same problem but now it is ok with adding nick name on it
