[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nehemoth:
first I'd read several topics about what should be done in these cases, but until now I still have the same problem.

The info:

I received yesterday a N8013ZW in a bootloop, read several sites and tried to reflash the tablet.

With Odin 3 v1.85 [just auto reboot option selected] installed the file KIES_HOME_N8013UEALI3_N8013XARALI3_1081475_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5 but from a bootloop passed to a bricked state in the Samsung logo.

Went to the Internet and read that I need to clean up the Cache, so I should install a recovery that allow me to do this.

With Odin again, with auto reboot and f.reset time, installed philz_touch_6.00.8-n8013.tar.md5 but after trying to boot to recovery didn't work.

So can please somebody help me to figure it out what I'm doing wrong here.

Maybe my files are incorrect or I should select another option.

Please someone point me in the right direction.

Regards

Tried last night with TWRP 2.8.7.0 touch and the same, the installation when just alright but not new recovery installed. Power button + volume up.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ViAlexSt:
In 99.9% of cases it's not possible to boot into recovery mode is a hardware problem. Probably faulty controller or died flash memory. You need to contact the service center to replace the motherboard.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nehemoth:
Tried this guide as per AndriiG suggestion, but did not worked.

Let's see if I can find something else.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ViAlexSt:
Well, if you want yourself to continue attempts to recover a tablet, try a SERVICE firmware. First, it has the pit file, and secondly, in the CSC-file laid a full wipe of the device. Download directly from Samsung servers can program SamFirm (note highlighted):
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nehemoth:
Indeed I will try, thank you.

I just followed the instructions provided by codified in this thread and proceed to download the file GT-N8013_XAR_1_20130927111406_k23qt8fzd7.zip.enc2, the I'd proceed to select Check CRC32 and Decrypt automatically and got the file GT-N8013_XAR_1_20130927111406_k23qt8fzd7.zip and the uncompressed this file to have KIES_HOME_N8013UEUCMI3_N8013XARCMI3_813049_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5 which looks like the first file that I tried with some subtle differences KIES_HOME_N8013UEALI3_N8013XARALI3_1081475_REV00_u ser_low_ship.tar.md5

I will try this tonight as soon as I arrive home.

I guess now to find the service firmware 4.0.4 is hardly possible. And to revive the tablet it doesn't matter :p

But I still think hardware problem......

The day before last night I tried the Prerooted UEALH2 Firmware Package by Entropy512 with the same result as before, stuck at Samsung Logo.

Today I'd just tried the method recently provided by [MENTION=4943537]ViAlexSt[/MENTION] and sadly the result was the same.

So, I supposed that this is a hardware issue as specified before.

Dead Display, Need my Data

I have a non-rooted verizon Samsung Galaxy S3 (SCH-I535). The display slowly started dying and is totally gone now. No illumination at all. I need to retrieve my data. However, my phone is locked with a PIN. Now what? Without being able to unlock the device I can't just plug it in to my PC and copy over the files. Surely I'm not the only one this has happened to. I don't plan on repairing it unless utterly necessary.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] OpenSourcererSweg:
You may be able to use a mouse or keyboard via an OTG cable to enter the pin.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] biemowo:
possibly, I have never used one with my device. Will it work the moment I plug it in? Even if I type in the PIN there's still the issue of having to pull down the notification bar and select USB media device to get it to communicate with the PC, otherwise it just mounts the garbage Verizon software.

By your username I assume you're brazilian, right?

Where did you buy your unit?

This night I've managed to talk to a Caska sales director for LATAM and he said that they cannot give the stock ROM for security reasons. I still have problems with the clock and the startup also (blank screen). They say their engineering team is working on fixing that issue, but China has a holiday that starts today (Oct 1st.) and only ends Oct 7th. So I'll only have an answer after that day.

Maybe you can talk to your seller and see if he gives any support (I bought mine at www.rcmultimidias.com.br).
[Android Head-Units] lmcoelho:
Sure I am, you are right.

I bought mine from aliexpress. I found a update.img file in some folder, but I'm not sure if it is the full image. I opened that image in a linux box and looks like we have everything, there some ext4 images, boot image and a lot of other files, but I'm not 100% sure about it. May be somebody with experience could verify that.

Another annoying thing is the music and video apps not reading files from sdcard, they only read USB and inand. I've modified the Music app to point it to the correct path, but I couldn't install it back to the unit (It fails to install without any error). At least if I could reassign music and video buttons to another app, that would be ok (VLC is working fine, just need to adjust volume).
[Android Head-Units] danylam:
Guys. I am also brazilian and I bricked my unit. They sent my the original update.img and sad to put a update.txt file on sdcard and boot. But I can not boot. Any idea?

Thanks
[Android Head-Units] lmcoelho:
Normally you have to boot in recovery mode, something that I still don't know how to do for this unit, and then use that update.img to restore. See this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2660662, there some possible procedures there and may be one of them work for the caska.

How big is the update.img file they sent to you?
[Android Head-Units] danylam:
Yeah. I have tried everything but could not boot. It is just a blank screen.

Here you go with the update.img.

Here I posted a video with all the problems I'm experiencing with this unit. The main problem is that I cannot setup the right time, so all Android apps are useless (they require a secure connection to their servers and this is only allowed with a valid certificate [that needs the correct date]).

I was trying to root my unit so that I could use ClockSync to fix the time every 30 seconds (it resets after 1 minute), but had no success on that.

Hi! :)

So, where did you managed to talk to Caska? I've tried contact with Caska Brasil with no success (they say they do not offer support for Android units), and Caska Global didn't give any answer (service@caskaglobal.com).

I've downloaded your update.img, but it's for CA712 and my unit is a CA380-XLA, I'm afraid to brick it. Have you tried entering recovery mode pressing reset and power buttons the same time?

I can reassign the screen buttons in my unit. In the settings, go to the last menu: "Shortcuts". Not sure if there's a way to reassign the physical buttons without modifying the original ROM.
[Android Head-Units] lmcoelho:
I'm newbie as well, but I know that you must need possible clue, since you brick your unit. I'm afraid to point you to the wrong direction, but I believe it deserves to try. I saw some threads discussing about the bootloader and connect via USB. Looks like to have to install the usb driver for the rock chip (RK3066, since it is dual core and there is a file RK3066Loader_uboot_upgrade2_4_16gok.bin in the update.img file). I don't have more details on that, but may dig deeper.
[Android Head-Units] purchio:
I've tried pluggin a USB to the unit and connecting it to my PC with no success, no devices are recognized. I have developer mode active but no options to enable USB Debugging.
[Android Head-Units] purchio:
So, I was able to extract all APKs from the file danylam hosted, and it's quite different from my unit: I have only one "Settings" menu, and in my unit some essential apps weren't installed (like HBS_Carkit_ChangeLogoUtil.apk and HBS_Carkit_SyncGPSTime.apk). I've installed them and solved one of my problems: car starting with a GMC logo. But the SyncGPSTime.apk isn't being called by any applications, so it's not starting (and I cannot start from itself).

Then I tried installing the Settings.apk that came with the ROM and ended up with a non functional setup menu, unfortunately. Since in that version most settings are changed from the "Android Settings", and I couldn't install that apk (it shows me an unknown error), I've lost some essential menus. :(

[Android Head-Units] lmcoelho:
I found the update.img in my CA712 with a simple search for update.img. I used the file browser and and did the search from / device.

---------- Post added at 10:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:40 AM ----------

This is the linux tool to open the image http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2257331

command:

./imgrepackerrk update.img

It creates a update.img.dump folder and the bin file should be in the update.img.dump/Image

Boot.img is compressed and if you want to see content do this:

mkdir boot
cd boot
gzip -cd ../boot.img | cpio -i -
[Android Head-Units] purchio:
Tried searching mine but couldn't find any *.img files. But at least I've managed to uninstall the CA712 settings from my unit and revert to the original one.

Looks like your unit is a little bit different from mine. :(

That is bad, but you will get it somewhere. Now I'm working on factory settings pin (I believe I can bypass, but I don't want to mess with settings app) and to make music app to work with the sdcard (It is working in the emulator, but I have to test in my car it fails to install due to signature conflict)

You said you could uninstall the settings app you had before, but did you have to install the original from app or app-private?
[Android Head-Units] purchio:
What I did was select the settings app from the app section in ES Explorer, hit properties, and there was a button for "uninstall update and revert to original". But there's a copy in the "app" folder.

Hello guys,

I've bought a CA721 unit some days ago from Aliexpress and install it on my car.

I'm gonna be honest, I don't like it at all.

Currently looking for a way to root this thing, backup the ROM and after that installing a new custom ROM - I don't like the bloatware it comes with, and also feel limited by the fact that I don't have root access.

Also as a hardware problem, it seems like the physical buttons have a problem and everytime I press HOME button it will somehow get stuck and perform the HOME action over and over again until I turn off the screen.

Any progress in finding a way to root this? Or install other compatible ROM?
[Android Head-Units] darkeingel:
I've been able to transfer from the device an update.img file that was siting on the root of the internal memory, and I want to continue investigation to see if I can root this one or somehow use one of the existing pre-rooted ROMs out there for my device.

Anyone that wish help me with direction, is my hero

P.S. The info says that it's built on ...07.15 so it must be something new.

For everyone locked in the boot logo looking for a way to go into system recovery, I've managed to do it!

These are the instructions Caska sent me and it worked:

"Copy those two “Update.img” and “update.txt” to the root directory of the SD card, put into the host, power on, will automatically upgrade, it will take few minutes to upgrade ,when it show OK, then remove the SD card, power off and reboot."

The update.txt is a plain txt file with nothing on it. It just instruct the system to instead try to boot, update with the Update.img

[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] merwin:
The dash has no memory leak. IE holds onto memory until the process terminates, which never happens unless you actively kill it. Also, in WM6, the T-Mobile apps that are loaded consume memory (especially My5), and the Microsoft Live service and the Voice Dialing also consumes a lot of memory.

I removed the Microsoft Live service from the registry, and stopped the listed apps from starting at boot, and everything is fine and dandy, with an average of 18 mb ram free at all times.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] user989:
When I restart my phone i have almost 21MB of free memory, and I have an use MyFavs, so I assume that's taken into account.

I disabled Voice Dialing already, but how do I get rid of Microsoft Live?

So basically all my memory is going into IE? I assume ending the task doesn't count as actively killing it?
