Rom-image not working :(

Hi,

Yes I know but it didn't work, it checked SD card content and nothing appeared. I once had an error with other image, sometimes it doesn't say anything at all like here with this rom.

I think it's because I need an original Dutch WM5 rom to flash back to original.

If anyone has a WM5 dutch?

Thanks!

[Sharp Aquos Crystal] ShaneRagans:
I have had my sharp aquos crystal for about a month now and I have noticed that if I place my finger in the center of the screen and about 3 quarters up, the touch glitches out and with "show touches" enabled under developer settings I see it is reading touches both above and below my finger about 1 cm as well as acting as if I was swiping between the two points very quickly(even though my finger is perfectly still)

I was wondering if this is a hardware problem, glitch with touch calibration, and/or how I can fix it.

I have a full rooted 306sh and all help is appreciated. :)
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] onroP89:
I have the same Problem on 305SH, i have pattern as lockscreen, sometimes i fail 3-4 times because the screen dosent recognize the first touch.

But on other days it works prefect, i use a screen protector maybe thats why.

I am aware it is not pertinent to the original topic, but may I ask how you were able to obtain full root access?
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] ShaneRagans:
Hey Mr_Anonamoose, I obtained full root access via tewilove's method back in october, I performed the operation as soon as the fies were available on his thread, but I believe one of the main files have been deleted since he posted them(though I am not 100% sure). You can check out his thread for more information.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azarameus:
My work colleague is an idiot - Despite warnings from his S3 that phone memory was low he continued taking videos and pictures and he has no sd card in the phone. Now the phone boots up but the pattern unlock screen is unresponsive. I offered to try to help him as he said "The last 2 years photos of my life are on there" so clearly a factory reset will lose them all so that's not an option.

So I installed Kies, thinking I'll just grab them to my PC for him - but alas no. MTP USB driver installation fails every time and yes I've googled my socks off, tried all the regedit fixes, even tried installing Win 7 32 bit on a spare hard drive.

I've checked that the ribbon connector for the screen is attached, tried linux boot disks that don't see the phone and now I'm all out of ideas. Any help would be vastly appreciated :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidriven:
Hello,

Welcome to XDA.

Most of the time the screen being locked wont let PC interact with the device. There are many different models of S3, give me your model number and I'll guide you to where you can find answers.

You may can flash a custom recovery or a temporary recovery(not sure because I don't know what is available for the model you're working with and what isn't), if you can get one of those recoveries then you may can use the factory reset in recovery(it wont wipe his photos) or adb to get the phone working.

Remember to create an XDA account so you can post and reply in the forums.

Hi there and many thanks for the welcome. The model number is GT-19300 :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidriven:
Your issue is unusual because of how it got that way, I'm not certain exactly which subforum or thread you need but I will link you to the GT I9300 Main Forum linked below:

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3

You can check through the subforums there for anything you think applies, the Q&A and the 2 development subforums are most likely where you will find help, this thread will be moved to the GT I9300 Q&A forum linked below:

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/help

If you get replies you can check them and respond there, you might want to find some off topic threads to post in until you have at least 10 posts so that you can post in the development forums there if you need to, there is a 10 post minimum before you can post there. Good luck.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azarameus:
Ok thanks again. I can get it into Recovery mode but all I've tried so far is clearing the cache, as I don't want to do anything that might lose his pictures.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidriven:
If it is stock recovery then I believe if you can get to download mode then you can flash a custom recovery and flash the superSU zip to root the device then factory reset/wipe data, wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache, this will clear the lockscreen but won't erase his pictures, music, etc., it may let him back into his phone, he will just have to be careful because the device will be rooted and he could make things worse if he doesn't know what he's doing. If that works and he gets back in his phone but isn't comfortable with the risk of having a rooted device without understanding its usage then the device can be un rooted by going into the superSU settings and choosing the unroot and uninstall option. He'd still have custom recovery though. You might even be able to just flash the recovery to do the wipes and not have to root, I'm not sure about that though because I've never used recovery without root so I can't speak from personal experience.

I've never owned the i9300 so I'm not sure if you can do that or not safely from the state you are in so you may want to verify in this forum before you try it, but I don't see an issue with you doing it, its commonly used to root the S3 variants and doesn't wipe any important data or factory reset the device
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azarameus:
Whew, most of that went right over my head lol. An idiot's guide please? Bearing in mind that my PC can't currently connect to the phone I'm guessing that I need to put the custom recovery file (where to find one?) on an SD card via a PC card reader and try it from there in download mode? I think he'll be delighted just to get his pictures and videos back even if the phone never works again, so it being rooted won't be an issue.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidriven:
No, to get to download mode you need to have the phone off, then press and hold the volume down+home+power button, when you see the caution screen you press up, if you can get to this mode you may can flash a TWRP recovery through Odin from PC to phone.

But first, before we get to Odin, do you or he know what android version he had before this happened, Kit Kat? Lollipop? I need to see if there are locked bootloaders on your device builds and which ones they are and which are safe to flash TWRP, if the i9300 is like some of the other Samsung devices with certain locked bootloaders that can't be unlocked or downgraded then flashing TWRP could and probably would brick the device. I need some info so I can check for you.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azarameus:
I honestly have no idea which android build it is running on, as I can't get into the settings page or anything else and I very much doubt if my friend knows as he is pretty much clueless on such things, hence the problem. All I know is that its a few years old and when it starts up there is a three.co.uk white screen icon before it gets to the unresponsive lockscreen. I am also almost as clueless with android devices (I'm only a PC guy) - so far my only experience has been to set up kodi with addons for TV viewing which is why I came here to ask you expert guys :)

Methinks I won't try to get into download mode just yet in case it makes things worse

All your help is much appreciated, thank you!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidriven:
The device was never updated, it never had stock upgrades? If not then I can narrow down what was on it, when was the device bought?

If you can boot to download mode and if it is recognized in Odin then you've got a chance, at the moment your PC isn't recognizing the phone but if it successfully connects to Odin then you've got a chance, otherwise I'm not sure what success you'll have.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hawaiihemd:
I would put a spare miniSD card in, flash TWRP recovery in odin, access the storage from there and copy the files to the SD card. Easy as pie.

The international version of the S3 (GT-i9300) already has an unlocked bootloader. So no problem there.

Important to note is that if the device is not rooted the TWRP recovery won't "stick" when the device is allowed to reboot automatically after the odin flash. So in odin you have to UNTICK(!) the reboot option and after flash reboot directly to recovery via holding Vol UP + Home + Power for about 7 sec.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azarameus:
I showed him this thread at work earlier and although he growled somewhat at being called an idiot in my OP, he had to agree he was lol. It turns out he bought his partner the same phone around the same time so I checked and it has Automatic upgrades ticked and is on build 4.3 so we can hopefully assume the problematic one is on the same version. When I mentioned the possibility of bricking to him he became unsure as to whether I should proceed with flashing. If he was to send the phone to Samsung themselves would they be able to retrieve his data safely, albeit with some cost and waiting?

Thanks again for your input
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azarameus:
That sounds good - all he wants is his files back safely. It certainly isn't rooted. So once that is done and I'm back in recovery mode how do I get out of there, just reboot it from there?

Thanks for the help, it is much appreciated
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hawaiihemd:
Yes, after you copied the files via the "File Manager" in TWRP you simply choose "reboot system". Rebooting to system will automatically restore the original recovery you are used to. Or you can choose to shutdown in TWRP, remove the SDcard "safely" first and then reboot.

Even more: After you copied all the photos/videos from internal storage (which should be under /storage/sdcard0/DCIM/camera) to SDcard you could simply delete a few of those.

If them taking up too much space is the problem for the lockscreen not working, deleting a few would of course free up some space again, which would then most likely make the lockscreen work again.

But let me make one thing clear: Flashing anything always brings with it the slight(!) possibility something could go wrong, because you are writing to the EMMC of the phone. BUT I can't imagine a samsung staff member doing anything different. He/she would also need to gain access somehow...

After all it's your choice but hundreds of people (including me) have used odin and twrp on different devices for years now without any problem whatsoever. :good:

--- Edit ---

Ah one more thing. I would definitely make a full backup (System/Data, EFS and bootloader) while I'm at it! You just choose "backup" in twrp, then the "MicroSD card" under "storage" and go from there. Pretty self explanatory. Never hurts to have a backup!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azarameus:
Ok thanks again. I am going to attempt this tonight, will update on any progress:cool:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azarameus:
Well, that worked! My idiot friend is happy now. Thanks a million for the help - you guys ROCK! :D
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hawaiihemd:
Nice! And were you able to get the lockscreen working again?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azarameus:
Yes indeed, all is working now as it should. The village idiot actually danced off to his car when I returned his phone - he has strict orders from me to move all his stuff to the SD card and make regular backups to his PC!

Thanks again - would never have done it without you guys :D

Descomprimir el archivo que descargaste

Renombrar el archivo de la rom .tar.md5 solamente a .tar

Abrirla con Total Commander y dejar solo estos archivos

*Boot.img

*Cache.img

*Hidden.img

*Recovery.img

*System.img

El resto borrarlos

Ahora poner el teléfono en modo download y con Odin aplicar la rom modificada

Debería pasar todo OK. ..pero cuando enciende se te reiniciará en el logo Samsung. .

Ahora para arreglar eso, instala el kernel custom búscalo como 928-FKLSI-ODIN.tar

My device is branded from Vodafone Germany and it has preinstall some useless applications.I try to uninstall most of them but still there is some apps that i cant remove them...

Is there anyway to completely remove those apps from my device?Or its possible to install an open firmware to get rid of those annoying apps?

P.S: If there is any way to remove or to install a new open firmware i want to be able to get OTA updates and of course i dont want to change any of the Knox values....

Do you need to flash something else when you flash recovery?

it says device is corrupt when I restart, but I was under the impression that screen comes up when bootloader is unlocked, so not sure if it means anything

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] premchandar777:
The biggest problem in Samsung is that when we flash phone with new firmware it won't delete the entire /system instead it rewrites the /system(sub folders),if you rooted your phone previously which means /su will be made in previous /system folder,now when you flash with new firmware without wiping the previous /system completely,then new firmware will be just rewrites other folder leaving /su since original firmware won't contain /su,since your old /su now corrupted because of misleading binaries that's the reason for you problem

Its possible for you go to recovery now?

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stumpy352:
We had this problem with the n6 with marshmallow. The fix was to reboot system after flashing the recovery. Then reboot recovery flash SuperSU and a custom kernel before rebooting. Something in the kernel needed to be fixed to allow su. For the n6 there was a stock with fixes boot image available for this if you didn't want a custom kernel. I would suggest reflashing the factory image & reading the forums some more for a kernel that offers the fix you're after.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] __NBH__:
If you flashed everything from the new image then wouldn't that reset your phone? When you reset the phone it turns off usb debugging in the developer options. I don't know if this makes a difference when flashing in fastboot but after I unlocked the bootloader I booted the phone up, re-enabled developer settings and turned usb debugging back on. I then booted into fastboot and flashed the recovery and it worked fine.

It makes a great bedside alarm clock with a nice "floating" time display that is highly customizable and even comes with its own white noise generator!

The second I use as a full fledged media player and "gym phone" with a ring.to account loaded on it so it will still function as a phone with the wifi network at the gym if I MUST get calls or texts. The ROM I use for this is a Kit Kat ROM and looks and runs great! Its by EverVolv and Team Nocturnal.
