Hi,

Im about to strap on the donkeys ears

Ive followed several guides for the C1905 for installing a custom recovery, some using the flash tool, others using the command line fastboot flash boot.img command, and every time, all i get is a black screen and 1 vibrate from the phone, I have tried different boot.img files from different custom rom's.

what is it im doing wrong?

firmware is stock 15.4.A.1.9

bootloader is unlocked using the sony site

i can recover back to stock, so thats no issue. i just want lollipop :(

You can contact Drive Savers, a company that specializes in data recovery, but be prepared to pay a huge chunk of money, and I'm not even sure they're equipped for that kind of recovery.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gingi999:
same happened to me but I'm worried that they will read my info when I send it back, should I be?
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agentbob123:
When you say they, do you mean nVidia or Drive Savers?

If the former, likely not. Depending on what they do, they'll either flash back to factory and refurbish the battery, or will just dispose of it appropriately.

If the latter, again probably not, but maybe. Best to check their site / call them to check their policies.

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tlucian:
Hi!

My one month old S6 Edge fell down last week and the front glass broke. However I used the phone normally until today when I got the display replaced in a store. With an original out of the box display from Samsung. After that I noticed that the back and app key (the lowest touch buttons one the front) did not light up at all, although they did work. When I put the phone in the flip wallet cover it went dark and did not respond anymore. I could here it getting emails or phone calls but the screen kept black. I pushed Volume Down and Off buttons until it restarted, with normal screen (the touch buttons also lit up for a second) but after loading normally the screen went black again. If I took it out of the wallet cover it lit up, the two keys also lit up, but the keys did not work at all. Again forced restart. Without the wallet cover the phone starts normally and works except that the touch buttons stay black, but they work. The moment I insert it into the cover it goes black.

It must have something to do with the magnet sensor?!

I took it back to the store, the guy put back the brocken screen and it acted again the same. Then he ordered the USB Board (the part with the charging port) just in case he may have broken it himself but actually he doesn't know if that will help.

Do you have any idea??

Thanks!

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] Lowrida:
Yesterday i flashed my Jiayu S3 to lolipop (i tought) and i just bricked my phone!

After reboot it was just dead.. when i plug into pc with USB i hear the connect sound and after 2 seconds the disconnect sound. This keeps on going until i pull the USB plug. When i look in DeviceManager i see it refresh after every sound, but nothing pops up (unknown device or whatever). I deletet all usb drivers with usbdeview, restart pc but still no changes.

I tried with or without battery, but without it does nothing at all.. i tried holding Vol+ or - or both or with power button, but nothing.

Read some threads about unbrick and install correct usb driver for jiayu s3, but all the options they came with does not work on my device!

I'm a little despered now and don't know what to do.. i get the feeling that my 2 weeks old phone is dead? :'(

My pc has windows 7

Did the flash with SP Flashtool 5.1516

Did not untick preload in flashtool, i guess i got the wrong preload or something??

Please help!

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] Dior DNA:
so you cannot boot into recovery or fastboot either?
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] 1testi:
Just flash it again, but this time with "Firmware upgrade " in SP Flashtool instead of "Download". Change from KK to LL needs reepartitioning, so firmware upgrade.

The reason why you don´t "see" the S3 any longer on the pc is, that the USB storage mode from KK, which is driverless for windows, don´t work right now on LL.

Once flashed to LL you will need to install a driver, for windows to connect to the S3.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] Lowrida:
@ Dior DNA:

No i can't. Phone does nothing with the buttons. Only diference if i hold Vol - then time from connect sound and disconnect sound is a little longer.. about 10 seconds. But still nothing happens.

[MENTION=6464110]1testi[/MENTION]:

Flashtools can't see my phone. I tried it a hundred times. With battery, without battery, with Vol - and with Vol +.

When i connect the USB cable i hear the connect sound and after 2 a 3 seconds i hear disconnect sound. This goes on and on until i pull the USB cable out. In devicemanager i see a refresh going on, but nothing pops up.

I'm realy despered on what to do now? :(
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] 1testi:
Why the SP Flashtool isn´t working any longer? You didn´t deinstalled the driver, did you? Just try to flash again with "Firmware Upgrade".

I don´t know a way to reinstall the driver in windows without the preloader. The only thing you can do, as far as i know, is to use a linux

pc to flash again. Linux don´t need a driver for SPF, only some rules.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] Dior DNA:
Booting into recovery or flashtool I meant regardless of pc and/or spflashtool.

If I recall correctly:

hold volup and power boots recovery

hold voldn and power boots flashtool

If you can boot recovery then which one is it? Maybe you can restore something or manually flash preloader bin from there.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] Lowrida:
After the flash i reboot and then the connect and disconnect sound appears. So i tried differend things, but could not connect. I wanted to flash again, but flashtool did not reconice the phone and nothing in DeviceManager. That's why i thought to remove the driver and try to re-install it. But that did not help..

Holding Vol - or + button with power button or both Vol buttons with power button does nothing.. i tried to hold all combinations at least 30 seconds, but nothing at all. :(

I have no Linux pc or any knowhow to make a Linux pc.. or a pc to install Linux on..
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] 1testi:
One last thing you can try: remove the battery, wait a little, insert the battery again. Hold vol+ key, keep holding it and press power

button, while still holding the vol+. If you don´t see anything happening then you bricked the phone.

You will need help from a professional or at least from someone with a linux machine, sorry.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] Lowrida:
I'll try that.

You have any idea what could have caused the brick?
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] 1testi:
As i wrote above, moving from KK to LL with wrong parameter "Download" in SPF.

....and a not working recovery.

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] Lowrida:
Ok i tried that site with google translate and i could a little make up what they are saying.

But that is a very drastically operation, and i would like to give it some other tries before dismantling my phone.

So i googled and googled.. came here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=889128

Had enough electronics lying around from my former 27mc hobby, so searched for the right resistors,

cut up a micro usb cable and give it a try... well.. nothing! Tried for about an hour and gave up.

Then i googled on Unbrick Jigs, but for what i read they are only for Samsung phones, so i gues the trick

with the resistors were also?

So googling again... came here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2454004

Reading the tread and the comments, someone mentioned a download for "Mediatek Driver Auto Installer".

Downloaded that and installed the drivers. Plugged in my phone and... whoohoo!! Something is happening! :silly:

My devicemanager saw an "Alcatel single RNDIS interface". I unplugged and plugged my phone a few times to

be sure it was my phone. Sooo... one step further! :good:

Then i googled on this device.. came up with all sorts of network devices, not helpfull. Then googled on Jiayu with

this device. Came up with this tread: https://www.china-devices.com/topic...vcomm-drivers-onto-your-pc-win-7vistaxp-only/

It's a tread about bricked Jiayu G3 devices, but i thought, 'What the heck, lets give it a try!'.

I downloaded the "MTK Megapack - All Tools Here!" and unpacked. Wend back to device manager and manually updated the driver

of the Alcatel device. Show all devices - browse - wend to Megapack map and there were MTK drivers for the 65xx device.

And yess.. when i plug in my phone there's the device: " MTK USB Port (COM7) "

SP Flashtools sees my phone again! :good: :D

Tried to flash a stock preloader, but got an error: "BROM ERROR : S_FT_ENABLE_DRAM_FAIL (4032) – [EMI] Enable DRAM failed!"

But for now that's a problem for tomorrow.. it's almost 2:30 and i have to got some sleep! ;)

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] Lowrida:
It's alive!!!!!! :laugh::silly::victory:

Because the kitkat stockrom i downloaded gave me the same error over and over i searched for something else.

So i downloaded TF Extreme lolipop 5.1 this morning and give it a try. And all went well. I pulled the usb plug and

pushed power button.. only vibration but nothing. Then pulled the battery and after few seconds put it back in

and try power again. Only 1 vibration.. then tried Vol + and - combinations but nothing. (dammn!)

Then plug the usb in and i saw the battery icon.. it was total empty! (because of a week trying).

So now it's charging and i hope it starts, can't wait!! :D

Thanx all for the effort in helping me out! :good:

Edit: Ok, so i could not wait and hit power! It shows green screen with Jiayu S3 logo and text "New Load". So i guess it's prepairing for first startup!

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] Kiei:
Kinda need help, happened something similar

It happened something similar to me.

I flashed the whole ROM, bootloader included, I was very sure that my model, Jiayu S3 3GB ROM + 32GB RAM, was the correct, but still bricked my phone.

There's no problem at all when I plug it into my PC, I installed the lastest MTK drivers on windows 10, having to disable the signature enforcement.

The problem comes when I start flashing. I only mark the bootloader, then I press "Download" (on the lastest version of SP Flash Tools), and plug the phone, with the battery in it (I've tried without battery, pressing all possible combinations and does nothing), when I plug it in with the battery and pressing no buttons, the driver is detected as MTK USB Port. That's a good thing I guess. But It does not pass from the red bar, and gives me the known error "Enable DRAM Failed".

I've tried to google any possible solutions, reinstalling other version of the MTK drivers, on different versions of Windows, with other versions of official ROMs, and the result is always the same.

The only thing that's left to try is flashing it with an Ubuntu machine, which is something I do not expertise to be honest, but I'm gonna gather some info and try to do it.

However, if someone has any idea of what I might be doing wrong (excluding the part when I flashed the bootloader, I'll never do it again), I would be really grateful for any kind of help.

Thank you!

Hi everyone,

On my Mega 5.8, whenever I call or receive call on Whatsapp, the other person can hear me, but I can't hear the other person when I'm using the phone's earpiece. If I plug in earphones, or put the call on loudspeaker, then I can hear the other person just fine.

I know the earpiece isn't broken because it works when I make/receive cellular and facebook calls.

Does anyone know a solution to this? I've tried reinstalling whatsapp, resetting the phone to factory settings, reinserting the sim card.

[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tinkerer_:
Answered my own question "how to put the Moto X Style (Pure) into factory recovery mode?". Maybe it will help someone.

Hold volume down + power key, until Android-on-back-with-front-door-open image appears after several seconds. Use volume up or volume down key to cycle through different labels pointing at the power button:

START

RESTART BOOTLOADER

RECOVERY MODE

POWER OFF

FACTORY MODE

BARCODES

BP TOOLS

QCOM

BOOTLOADER LOGS

Use volume buttons to cycle through the above options until RECOVERY MODE label is displayed next to power button, and press power button. This boots to an image of Android-on-back-with-front-door-open and red triangle with exclamation point, and "No command." displayed under the image.

At this point, press and hold the power button, and press and release the volume up button. It should then go into Recovery Mode, with the familiar screen and options:

Android system recovery <3e>

LPH23.116-18

Volume up/down to move highlight;

Press & release power key to select.

reboot system now

apply update from sdcard

apply update from ADB

wipe data/factory reset

wipe cache partition

reboot to bootloader

power down

When its soft problem the steps are:

- go to download mode and flash your rom via odin (when it not helped do next step)

- get root and uninstall bloodware (when it not helped do next step)

- try custom rom (when it not helped its probably hardware problem)

When its hardware problem the steps are:

- maybe is bad connection between battery and mobil, try to remove battery and give back (when it not helped do next step)

- maybe is bad battery , try new one or from other Ace II mobile (when it not helped do next step)
