[Galaxy S5 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aleij:
Hi,

I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 Mini G800F (stock rom, no custom recovery, no root). From one day to another it stopped working and hangs in a boot

loop now. After displaying the samsung logo it shows green rows for a few seconds and restarts. It is possible to go into download

mode with home + volume down + power on, but not in recovery mode with home + volume up + power.

What I have tried:

reflashed stock ROM from sammobile.com with odin 3.10.6 without errors, problem still exists

reflashed stock ROM with odin flags "re-partition", "Nand Erase All" and corresponding PIT file without errors, problem still exists

flashed TWRP 2.8.7.0 but couldn't enter recovery mode

rooted the device with odin, same behaviour

adb could not find device

What I can exclude:

display is ok (no flickering or pixel rows in download mode)

battery is ok (works with other smartphones)

power button works properly (phone does not start while inserting battery)

I think the problem lies in the bootloader. Is it possible to re-flash the bootloader and if yes, how is it done?

Is there anything I can do or is the phone hard-bricked now?

Thanks for your help! :good:

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oats2567:
Sorry for any mistakes I may make in this post, it is my first time posting on XDA and any constructive criticism is welcome. I recently rooted my D850 G3 and it worked beautifully. After doing this I decided to take it a step further and flash TWRP as a custom recovery. I was very careful to flash it for the D850 and make sure it was compatible with my software version. After a successful flash I made a full Nandroid backup before rebooting. Upon rebooting my G3 showed the LG logo and underneath said, Security Error, with no additional information. It repeated this after I had removed the battery and then went dark. After this point, my phone was not even registered on my PC COM ports and is truly a brick. If anyone has advice for this situation it would be greatly appreciated. List of things I have already tried: Fastboot, Traditional unbrick, Traditional unroot, Boot to recovery, Boot to download mode, Charging phone. None of these have worked so far.

Any 4.x firmware will work on the latest current ROMs.

What you have is probably the latest firmware for T-Mob US; and either way it will work on the custom ROMs.

I'm not big on suggesting favorite ROMs. Everyone has their own specific preferences, needs, etc.

I've used stock Developers Edition, LeeDroid, Skydragon Sense, and currently on SROM (just flashed it last Friday). But that isn't to say others, such as InsertCoin, Viper, Etc. are not every bit as good.

[P3600 ROM Development] Raeldor:
Hi All,

My P3600 is stuck in bootloader after trying to install the official D810 ROM. I used the CID unlock install first, which seemed to work fine, I then tried to install the D810 ROM and it looked like it was working, but stopped at 28% with some kind of communications problem. Recovery does not work... it displays the progress bar, but then goes straight back to the rainbow bootloader screen.

Any help or suggestions appreciated.

Thanks

Rael
[P3600 ROM Development] Raeldor:
Phew... got it working. I removed the battery and replaced, boot loader was still displayed, and then ran the old official WM5 update which seemed to progress from 0 to 100% sucessfully.

Thanks

Your phone was relocked by the update, and I'm guessing you don't have an actual D810 that's supposed to get this update. The best method to flash this is to follow my post here:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] dr0833:
I have an Galaxy S6 on Verizon that I just bought a week ago. I rooted it and it's on 5.0.2. I started removing bloatware with titanium backup and everything was fine. 5 days after I did this I started to get the error " unfortunately com.Android.phone stopped working". It keeps popping up continuously and makes it hard to do anything on the phone. It happens even after a restart.

I tried clearing the cash in recovery mode. I tried going into settings, app manager, phone and clearing data and cache. I tried clearing contacts.

I am trying to avoid resetting the phone to factory since I just finished debloating it and I actually got the battery to last a full day where as when I first got the phone and it was stock, it had a horrible battery life. Is there anyway to solve this? I have looked all over the internet and only found the solutions above which don't work.

If resetting is the only way do i do a reset through setting backup and restore or do I reset from restore mode?

Update regarding the strange NFC issue.

An initial logcat pointed this out:

D/NFCJNI ( 2787): phLibNfc_SE_SetMode() returned 0x000d[NFCSTATUS_PENDING]
I/NFCJNI ( 2787): NFC Initialized

The error is gone after taking that proprietary file from the stock ROM:

D/NFCJNI ( 2904): Start Initialization
D/NFCJNI ( 2904): NFC capabilities: HAL = 8150100, FW = b10129, HW = 620003, Model = 11, HCI = 1, Full_FW = 1, Rev = 41, FW Update Info = 0

D/NFCJNI ( 2904): phLibNfc_SE_SetMode() returned 0x000d[NFCSTATUS_PENDING]
I/NFCJNI ( 2904): NFC Initialized

NFC seems to initialize correctly in both cases, but I can't exchange data with other devices. I was not expecting this kind of issue at all because standard M8 has the same NFC chip.
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Just one clarification regarding the incall audio issue. The noticed pattern is:

SIM 1 network mode set to LTE or 3G (SIM 2 network mode is automatically set to 2G) > incall audio works on calls using SIM 1, but not SIM 2

SIM 2 network mode set to LTE or 3G (SIM 1 network mode is automatically set to 2G) > incall audio works on calls using SIM 2, but not SIM 1
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
New updates on the incall audio issue. I finally got incall audio on the SIM card that is not set to LTE/3G. It was done by forcing a different PCM device to be opened during the call. Now I get the exact opposite behavior, than the one described on previous post.

The source code needs some changes in order to decide which PCM device should be opened, taking into account which SIM is calling and what network mode is set.

EDIT: New update released. Incall audio issues are fixed.
[One (M8) Android Development] osm0sis:
Can you change that to "by @TKruzze and @osm0sis"? Thanks! :)
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
It has been done! :D
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
I have been testing one change that appears to be working pretty well. Hope to come with a beta release within the next few days.
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Moved from Alpha to Beta release and the download link is updated with the new version. The incall audio issue is fixed for good and the only problem now is NFC. Please test NFC and post your comments.
[One (M8) Android Development] consuldore:
Everything works great so far.

Had some problems with the last version.

Sometimes both sim cards lost connection and only a reboot could make them work again.

Will test this ROM the next day's and then report back.

Thanks again for your hard work.
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Could you please test NFC? Did you have the latest LP firmware flashed?
[One (M8) Android Development] consuldore:
Sorry, I don't have any NFC devices to test with.

Yes, I think so. Installed the latest OTA update before installing this ROM.

---------- Post added at 12:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:46 AM ----------

Just checked my settings and I'm on firmware 4.30.401.15
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Okay, same here.
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
I don't know if those users using this ROM have already noticed, but it allows both SIM cards (only one at a time) to be set to LTE/3G. Huge difference when compared to the stock Sense ROM, where SIM2 can only work in 2G.

I'm running CM for more than a month now and, with the latest beta release, it can be perfectly considered as a daily driver. ;)
[One (M8) Android Development] consuldore:
No, haven't noticed that. But it's cool and will come in handy when I'm back in Australia. So I don't have to switch card's at the airport. Big thanks for that.

And so far there are no issues with this beta. No dropped connections or other bugs.

Will test NFC later today.
[One (M8) Android Development] consuldore:
Sure thing. But it was no device. I used a smartcard and the app NFC tools to read the data stored on this card.

So it's more like a NFC tag.
[One (M8) Android Development] wushi8:
yes ,i am china, nfc tools can read the data stored on card, but nfc-sim can't use in subway or bus!
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Is any special app required to use your NFC-SIM? If so, could you take a log when opening the app and trying to use NFC-SIM?
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
I'm felling embarrassed now. :o I was testing NFC with a RFID reader which in the past used to read a NFC tag from M8 Dual SIM running stock Sense ROM. Turns out I never tried to read a tag from a smartcard. Just tested and it really works, so I assume that NFC is working after all. The strange thing and that also lead me to some confusion was that I had also tried to beam files to a One Plus One and wasn't working, but it seems that the problem in that case was the positioning of the phones.

So:

Do you know what that means? That's right, I will apply for the next stable CM-12.1 release. :D
[One (M8) Android Development] simonvfr:
Excellent news - and no need to be embarrassed, it's all learning!

And given the positive feedback about the experimental build with the single sim radio blobs, is it right to include that development in nightly (and stable) also? Everyone who has installed seems to have had a positive experience. I'd love to be able to keep the assured connectivity and get back on to the nightly update path . . . . .
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Yes, of course, stable build will consider that for sure. The radio blobs from standard m8 are not yet merged into TheMuppets repository for m8dug. So far the nightlies are not including those, so please stick with the experimental build until I let you know. I was only expecting to have more feedback. I will eventually merge the blobs this weekend.
[One (M8) Android Development] gazzacbr:
Hi, all looking good here. I will give this a try next few days when i have some time.

Out of interest, does the dot view vase work, and will the duo camera ever work?
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Yes, dot view case should work. The duo camera I am not sure it works the same way as in stock, but please test. That works exactly the same way as in CM for standard m8.
[One (M8) Android Development] simonvfr:
I can confirm that Dot View case works, but uses a CM system app rather than the HTC app (which cannot be installed from Play Store). The functionality is more limited than with the HTC app running under Sense.

Duo camera does not work as it does with Sense - so no post shot messing with focus etc. Personally, I find this no loss - I just wish that HTC had put a better main camera on the M8, instead of waiting for the M9.

Overall, I think CM is lots better than Sense. No going back for me!
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
This is what I like to hear! :D

You know... yesterday I had to reflash RUU just to be sure that NFC was working on stock and I can't believe how I spend so many time with it before stepping in and trying to bring CM to M8D. :)
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
The stable release should come just in time to move forward. :p
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Okay, radio blobs overwritten (note that you won't see that in CM changelog). You can all flash the next nightly. ;)

Did you manage to flash the latest firmware and move to CM? :D

Hi,

[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Thank you all for testing the experimental builds. ;) It was hard for me to find the solution because I never experienced those issues. Anyway, let's move on. Time to start working on CyanogenMod 13.0. :D
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Now I understand why I kept testing and testing NFC with the RFID reader and was never able to read anything from the phone, which in turn led me to think that NFC was not working. Actually, AOSP uses the "legacy" opensource stack which lacks HCE (Host Card Emulation) support on PN544 chip (more info on this thread).
