A Cautionary Tale [Satire Alert]

There once was a poster named Moe

Who was smarter than the average Joe.

He worked on his Wizard.

His fingers flew like a blizzard.

His talents were more than mere show.

Our friend Moe was kindly and good.

He helped others whenever he could.

Even to the errant newbie

He was polite, charming, and witty,

Perhaps a little more than he should.

Then at last Moe became a cook.

He was convinced it was easier than it looked.

He gave it a try

And behold, by and by,

His ROMs were a hit - we were hooked.

But Chef Moe began to change.

His persona was outside its usual range.

He began to be grumpy,

Temperamental and bossy.

Was Moe becoming deranged?

King Moe surrounded himself with a troop.

"Beta testers," he called this elite group

They tested his work

And shielded him from us jerks.

Innocent questions were now considered a coup.

"Don't bother Comrade Moe with your whining.

Don't you know that his work is demanding?

That ROM he has promised

Is not yet finished

We need a few more days of gloating."

But those of us in the know

Are beginning to feel sorry for Moe

The "great work" he is doing?

Even a caveman could do it

So why all the pomp and the show?

What makes some of us oldtimers sad

Is that we know Moe's really not bad

He just believed his own press

And he's fallen into a mess.

We sometimes remember our good-natured lad.

But the omniscient tech gods are fickle

And Moe is in for a real pickle

The base rom he uses has become obsolete

Now some young upstart has got poor Moe beat

And his user base has slowed to a trickle

These days we hardly hear from Moe at all

Such pride can't handle such a fall.

He's started a forum

But its dead, oh the boredom!

Its chances for success infinitesimally small.

But we are as happy as clams!

Our wizards are still in our palms.

The "Moe-nster" we helped create

We never did learn how to sate.

And truth be told, we don't give a damn.

Just give us a shiny new ROM.

One we can waste several more hours on.

WM 7?

Now that would be heaven!

No mourning for Moe, he was just one.

***

Well, there once was a poster named Bo...

(First post in the comments below)​

Before hand I want to say THANK YOU to everyone that replies. :)

I have a sense for technology and learn quick but for the past week I have read up almost everything relating to this issue and found little. BTW I'm also new to all this cuz for the longest time ever I still have a non-smartphone phone. Never really needed one :D I know I'm lame.

So here is my dilemma:

- So this phone is a is a SGH-I747 (AT&T) and my friend somehow bricked it while trying to root it and then unbricked it but put the Verizon OS [SCH-I535] on it. Since nothing actually works with the OS (It doesnt connect to any services, camera doesn't work, only Browser works) I have been trying to flash the stock OS [I747UCDLK3_I747ATTDLK3_I747UCDLK3_HOME.tar.md5] but Odin v1.85 (I have tried with other versions) gives me the following Fail:

I'm basically stuck since I can't flash the OS and I'm too inexperienced to know what to do next. I'm going to put all the information up I can get to help anyone willing to help me (and thank you).

Information:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jason2678:
Guessing from your baseband version, you probably have the MJB bootloader on that phone. Odin is basically failing a safety check. Downgrading the MJB bootloader will result in a hard brick. Do not try to use Odin to force any full firmware updates onto that phone. The only full firmware package available for i747 is LK3, and flashing it would downgrade the bootloader (and hard brick the phone if it actually proceeded).

At this point your best bet to get it working is to flash a custom recovery, and then reflash a ROM meant for the phone from recovery.

Get an Odin flashable TWRP recovery from here: https://dl.twrp.me/d2att/twrp-2.8.7.0-d2att.img.tar

Use Odin 3.07 for flashing TWRP. Get it from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1722686

Also get yourself an MJB ROM zip (assuming you want a stock ROM). You can pick from a few here. It would be easiest if you have an external microSD to store the ROM zip on.

Do not let Odin auto reboot when you flash TWRP (the stock ROM might overwrite your new custom recovery with a stock one during the boot process). Uncheck everything but f.reset time in Odin. Upon success remove USB cable and pull the battery. Replace battery and boot straight into recovery by holding vol up + home + power until you see a flash of blue text in the upper left of the screen, then release the buttons.

Once up in TWRP choose wipe -> advanced wipe, tick dalvik, cache, system, and data. Wipe them. Now flash the new ROM with the install menu and reboot.

First boot will be long, so be patient. However, if it hangs on the AT&T logo for more than 20 minutes pull the battery and reboot into TWRP. Redo the advanced wipe like above, and once that's done format the internal storage from the wipe menu too (the wipe where you have to type "yes" to confirm). This is where an external SD is handy since you just blanked the internal storage. If you don't have a microSD, you'll have to use a PC to copy the ROM to the phone over USB after formatting the internal storage (or just get a little mircroSD for cheap insurance - small ones are only a few dollars). Flash the ROM again and reboot.

If you have an external SD, or you've verified you can copy files over USB while the phone is booted in TWRP with no problems, then formatting the internal storage is probably a good base plan. Touchwiz ROMs can be finicky about booting up after AOSP has been on the phone; I'm not entirely sure how AT&T touchwiz will respond to following a Verizon touchwiz ROM.

Question:Can i put a non-smart phone sim card into a smartphone (S3 in this case) without AT&T creating a plan? From what I have heard yes but I don't think it is for every phone, is it for this one?

I will edit thead to SOLVED status
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jason2678:
Here is my understanding of how that works with AT&T. This could be flawed, so if anyone reading has better information please chime in.

If you put a sim provisioned for a regular phone into a smart phone, then I think the smart phone will get access to whatever network features the previous phone had on the old phone's #. Voice calls and messaging will probably work. Mobile data probably won't because the sim will be provisioned for a phone that doesn't use data. You could still use it as a wifi only device for data needs. It can't hurt to try.

One thing to watch out for is that AT&T does not like to allow smartphones onto their network without a data plan, and they periodically do IMEI sweeps of their network. They essentially check to see if the IMEI on a phone line matches what they have on file. They can tell from the IMEI what phone is hooked up, and they might not be happy about a smartphone using a feature phone plan. Although I'm not sure there's anything they can do about it but complain as long as you don't change any plan options since you brought your own phone.

I know they do the IMEI sweep thing because of some threads in another phone's forum here. People switched from one LTE capable smartphone to another one just by swapping sims. 4G data worked fine for a while, until AT&T noticed they were using a different phone and re-provisioned their sim. Then 4G stopped working and they dropped to 3G only on the new phone. The reason data stepped down to 3G was due to an error on AT&T's side on how their network treated the new phones, but try getting that one past their customer service. A lot of people got told if they wanted all their features to work they should have gotten their phone through AT&T (which would mean a largely unsubsidized, hopelessly locked down phone on most their newer devices and plans). A few people got lucky and got a sympathetic or knowledgable tech who provisioned their sim as if it was on their old phone or another LTE capable device and got everything working right again.

So my fathers phone was wiped in service. And now it wants to log in with account that was used before. The problem is that... He forgot email, password and basicaly everything that can help recover the account.

I did everything i can but this phone still wants this old account. I wiped everything (factory reset), installed new rom. But it still wants the Old account.

Do you know any way to fix this?

I can't post image because i am too new here. But it's written:

The device was reset. To continue sign in with a Google account that was previously synced on this device.
[General Questions and Answers] zombunny:
What device? That seems odd. I've always had the alternative option to sign up. It doesn't have any prompts to create a new account?

[General Questions and Answers] SariusII:
It's Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime.

There are no options to create new account. There is an option to help with forgoten password. But he is not even sure what was the email.

Belive me, i even asked my IT friends and there is no options that can help.
[General Questions and Answers] bweN diorD:
yep, this new security feature was introduced by google on 5.1 and above. every time you factory reset you must enter the primary google account info or the device is useless.

there is only 1 possible way around it. you have to downgrade your device to a firmware less than 5.1 where that security is not on it. there is no other way. if you are unable to downgrade and there is no possibility you may remember the needed info, you will have to get a new phone.

in the future, delete off all your google accounts before sending it in for service or doing a factory reset, then the security will be disabled until you put the accounts back on.

Works but could be simplified

Thanks for this useful post. I've just followed the instructions to root my XT1032 Stock Lollipop 5.1, and they work. However, I have a few comments:

[1] I had already installed Motorola Device Manager on my (Windows 7) PC, plus 'Minimal ADB and Fastboot'. This was sufficient – I didn't need to download the files in your prerequisite 2.

[2] You can use any compatible recovery image. I prefer TWRP, so downloaded openrecovery-twrp-2.8.1.0-xt1032.img.

[3] The SuperSu zip file you've linked to is out of date. The current one is version 2.46 (for Lollipop).

[4] After flashing SuperSu it's advisable to wipe the cache and Dalvik cache.

[5] Root Checker showed that BusyBox wasn't installed, so I downloaded Stephen Erickson's BusyBox installer from the Play Store. This is an essential step, as most programs requiring root won't work without BusyBox. Perhaps it could be added to the OP?

[6] You don't need to use Root Explorer – any root-compatible file manager will do. I prefer Total Commander.

[7] Having deleted (or in my case renamed) install-recovery.sh and then rebooted, I didn't need to go back to step iv and reinstall the custom recovery; in my case TWRP was still there. I think your step ix is unnecessary; at least it's worth checking which recovery you have.

I hope these points are useful and not too nit-picking!
[Moto G General] sanilch99:

Cant load custom recovery

Last night, I unlcoked the bootloader and followed every step till i turned on cmd and enter in the commands "fastboot flash recovery Recovery2.img". However after flashing the recovery i get a message saying "Mismatch partition size (recovery)". I ignore this and do fastboot reboot-bootloader and this reboots the bootloader. Afterwards i try opening the recovery option on the bootloader (volume down, volume up) and it shows the "unlocked bootloader warning screen" for a split second but then returns to the bootloader saying "boot up failed". I have tried many other recoveries but the exact same problem occurs. After this, I gave up and used the phone like I regularly do, but I tried again today and i get the same problem. How do I fix this? How do I get a custom recovery working? Did using the phone with normal use after unlocking the bootloader not allow me to flash a custom recovery?
