Yes it is download mode. I followed all if the instructions completely. I extracted the. Tar. Md5 fike feon thw zip abd put it in AP in odin and fails everytime

---------- Post added at 01:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:57 AM ----------

Its possible it could be a virus I suppose.

---------- Post added at 02:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:58 AM ----------

When i extract the zip file there is only the tar. Md5 file. No. Img file?
[Galaxy Grand Prime Android Development] zefie:
When using 7-zip, you can open the zip, then in 7-zip where you see recovery.tar.md5, right click and choose "Open Inside". Then extract the resulting recovery.img. 7-zip will warn about extra data, just ignore it, it is because of the md5 data at the end of the tar.
[Galaxy Grand Prime Android Development] DanHutchins:
I had this problem when installing a different file on odin. I deleted the .md5 from the file name and it worked. Could try that.
[Galaxy Grand Prime Android Development] jpizzle903@gmail.com:
I tried that. I am thinking about flashing the pre rooted stock rom and trying it from there

---------- Post added at 08:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:59 PM ----------

I think mqybe kingroot is screwing it up. Which i have to have it installed before i can flash the pre rooted stock and hopefully it will flash ok
[Galaxy Grand Prime Android Development] DanHutchins:
That's what I would do.
[Galaxy Grand Prime Android Development] DanHutchins:
You don't need king root for prerooted rooted stock

---------- Post added at 02:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:32 PM ----------

Just flash it with odin
[Galaxy Grand Prime Android Development] zefie:
Odin is seperate from system. Root is neither required, nor going to interfere with the Odin flashing process. Unless KingRoot is running on your PC when you are trying to flash. Remove it from your PC.
[Galaxy Grand Prime Android Development] jpizzle903@gmail.com:
Ok thanks i am going to give it a try

Does anybody know if the patched twrp has ext-sd support(willbit back up to ext-sd)?
[Galaxy Grand Prime Android Development] DanHutchins:
Don't know haven't tried backing up to SD card.
[Galaxy Grand Prime Android Development] DanHutchins:
If you try it and it works let me know would free up a lot of space on my phone.
[Galaxy Grand Prime Android Development] jpizzle903@gmail.com:
I tried flashing the pre rooted stock in odin and it failed. I dont know what else to try besides maybe factory resetting my phone first. Not sure if i will do that yet
[Galaxy Grand Prime Android Development] DanHutchins:
That's very strange. Is odin recognizing your phone? Maybe reinstall the device drivers with Samsung kies.
[Galaxy Grand Prime Android Development] jpizzle903@gmail.com:
Yes its recognizing my phone. I dont know why it fails
[Galaxy Grand Prime Android Development] DanHutchins:
Not sure what's going on. It all worked fine for me. Sorry I can't help I know how frustrating it can be.

---------- Post added at 06:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:41 AM ----------

Are you loading the file in the AP section. If so I'm at a loss
[Galaxy Grand Prime Android Development] jpizzle903@gmail.com:
Yes i am. Im at a loss as well, obviously.

---------- Post added at 02:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:53 AM ----------

When i go to download mode it says reactivation mode on. Is that normal?
[Galaxy Grand Prime Android Development] DanHutchins:
No its not normal it should say odin mode and some other info below it. Scratch that. Yes under odin mode it will say reactivation mode:on or off depending on your settings
[Galaxy Grand Prime Android Development] jpizzle903@gmail.com:
Yea it says on does that matter
[Galaxy Grand Prime Android Development] DanHutchins:
It might. I never turn that setting on so I can't say for sure.

---------- Post added at 02:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:18 AM ----------

You might be able to call samsung support and see if there is a way to turn it off without the device working. Not sure if you can tho.

---------- Post added at 02:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:22 AM ----------

Looks like factory reset is the only way.

---------- Post added at 02:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:28 AM ----------

This is what I found. It's for a different samsung model but should work.

Open → account.samsung.com on your web browser.

Sign-in with your Samsung account, you’ll see the following page with “Profile” link on the menu on left, click on it.

Click Profile

On the profile screen, there’ll be a “Delete account” button at the bottom, click on it, re-verify your password and delete the account.

Step 2: Factory reset your Galaxy S6

Boot into recovery mode:

Power off your Galaxy S6.

Press and hold “Power + Volume Up + Home” button together and release as soon as you see Galaxy S6 logo on the screen.

If you’re on stock recovery, you’ll see a blue screen with Android. Wait for about 25 seconds to let the device automatically boot into recovery mode.

└ Use Volume Up and Down buttons to scroll and Power button to select an option on stock recovery.

Now to factory reset, select “wipe data/factory reset” option from recovery, and then select Yes when it asks for confirmation.

Reboot device. You’ll be greeted with setup wizard, which will later block you due to reactivation lock on the phone and will ask for your Samsung account. So we’ll now recreate your Samsung account.

Step 3: Recreate Samsung account

Open → account.samsung.com on your web browser.

Click the “Sign Up” link at the top right corner of the screen and create a new account using the same e-mail ID and credentials as used previously.

Confirm account verification from your e-mail inbox, if needed.

Step 4: Login with the re-created Samsung account and disable reactivation lock

After factory resetting your Galaxy S6, Setup wizard will ask you for a Samsung account to get through reactivation lock.

Login using the re-created Samsung account. It’ll get you through.

Once Setup finishes. Go to Settings » Lock screen and security » and select Find My Mobile.

And now, finally, TOGGLE OFF REACTIVATION LOCK.. phew!!

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kazaan5:
Hi everyone!

I am completely new to ROMs, flashing and all so my apologies in advance if I ask stupid questions or need help with the simplest stuff!

Anyways, I got a Samsung GT-i9020 from a friend who apparently had rooted the phone previously and also installed ClockworkMod Recovery. The issue now is that when I start up the phone, I see the clockworkMod Recovert v3.0.2.4 black and orange words screen and I honestly have no idea where to go from there in order to get it to work properly. My friend is too busy to help me at the moment so I have been trying to look for a way to resolve this problem via help here if possible! I tried 'wipe data/factory reset' and after it did so, it brought me back to the same screen. Tried 'apply update from sdcard' and 'install zip from sdcard' but both gave me an error message stating the file could not be found.

Any ideas on where I should go from here to get the phone to function properly again?

Thank you!
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ForbiddenSiren:
just recently, I just downgrade my phone from CM11 (KitKat) to JellyBean. there's some error while flashing the rom. Im quiet sure about it. whats more important is that now my phone just cannot boot properly, when I start the phone its vibrate like always with green led and right after the SONY logo, my phone just switch off.. I cannot access anything even recovery mode. and there is one another problem, when I plug in usb, green led light shows up, later for about a minute my phone automatically boot up with RED led then just after SONY logo it switch off again, and then goes green led on back and red led comes again off right after every SONY logo, just like ON and OFF again & again.. :(

Sorry I dont know how to describes it, and sorry for my bad english if you guys find it hard to understand. PLEASE help in this case!! Thank you in advance! :)
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] albertojr.neto:
You must enter fastboot mode. Erase the boot section and flash a new boot image (.img) or a kernel .elf file.

Use the commands:

> fastboot erase boot

> fastboot flash boot boot.img or fastboot flash boot boot.elf

> fastboot reboot

After that, if the boot.img contains a recovery system, it would be installed and now you can enter recovery again and reflash your rom.

I think that any boot.img inside a CM Rom zip file have a recovery system.

Are you familiar with fastboot mode? How to enter, usage, drivers?
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ForbiddenSiren:
Please give me the instruction on using fastboot. Im not very familiar with fastboot.

How can I find the img, where to download? and how to use it.

Thanks by the way for tips, I think I've been using the wrong rom, I dont know which is the right rom to downgrade to stock.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] albertojr.neto:
If you want to downgrade to stock i'd recommend you to use the Flash tool for Xperia.

You can download it here => http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/tool/flash-tool-for-xperia-devices/

Follow these instructions => http://developer.sonymobile.com/services/flash-tool/use-the-flash-tool-for-xperia-devices/

You need to do the step 4 right for it to work.

I guess it will solve your problem.

If you have any other question, just ask.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ForbiddenSiren:
As I mention before on the previous post, the problem is every time I plug-in usb the device keep on connected and then disconnected. on and off, and booting itself with red led till the SONY logo come off its shutdown and green light appeared again. Its like not properly connecting the device.

Is that okay to go on flash mode? may it not been error before operating this?
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] albertojr.neto:
Keep the usb connected.

When it reboots, before the sony logo appears, keep the volume down key pressed. When the light turns green, the phone entered the flash mode and you can release the volume down key. I dont know if it will reboot again. If the phone enters flash mode (green light) and reboots after that, maybe is a driver issue. In fastboot mode (volume key up + blue light) sometimes this heappens. I dont know about flash mode.

I saw this guide:

I don't want to install the recovery, there is'nt a working tool only for root?
[Doogee X5 Questions & Answers] kecskesajt:
No, it's not possible. You need costum recovery.

Maybe ask some professionals on the forum.

Maybe some ADB command will do do work.

[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChrissehB:
Okay I reflashed without wiping data partition and it's still happening. If I boot into safe mode it stops happening so it's something I have installed but I can't find what. I've uninstalled everything that I've recently installed and can't figure it out. Any ideas at all?

EDIT:

I managed to fix this issue so I'm posting for anyone who may have the same issue in the future. I went through all different troubleshooting steps, booting safe mode, without sim card, without microsd. And without microsd it was perfectly fine. I managed to boot into safe mode and transferred all apps stored on the sd card to the phone and it's working perfectly again. I'm not sure which app was causing it to reboot every 10 minutes but something was.

[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MickieH:
What, exactly, does the 4 red blinks and reboot mean?

My Z5 did this once, but I've had it for a few months now. Completely stock.

I had a Z4 Tablet which did this all the time from brand new. Even did it on first boot, then randomly, several times a day. I tried reflashing it a couple of times, but it kept doing it. O2 replaced it, and the new one has never done it.

But, I still don't know what it means?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jcomstock:
I have called at&t 4 times today and Google once. My phone is only displaying H not 4g. Will not connect to 4g no matter what I try. Messed with APN settings. Wondering if I have a defective phone. Wifo connection is not as strong as my other devices even right by the router. Any help or suggestions. At&T and Google had no help whatsoever.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshuadjohnson22:
Probably a hardware issue but I would do a full reset and try again, if that fails contact their support for RMA
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jcomstock:
That's what I was afraid of. Did the full factory reset and still same issue! I'm hold with Google right now with google. I know they don't do exchanges which is ridiculous! Been on hold for 15 mins. Will prob never buy another device from google after this mess. They are saying a replacement might not fix the issue because H might stand for 4g. I have told them this is not the case as the speeds are noticeably slower.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dligon:
I'm on At&t no issue here with 4g LTE would say try another sim card crazy google saying that another phone might not fix the issue.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BRYCEFISHER:
Do you mean "4g" or LTE because 4g will display as H on this phone?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nexus4to6P:
When I went to AT&T they had to tweak my settings so my apn is set to ATT phone not ATT WAP and I get lte now. You might have to go into a store and have them tweak it for you. At first it shows H but it switches over to lte. I hope this helps you some.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jcomstock:
Huh I was told by Google that H stood for 3g (HSPA). I do not get LTE at my house but full bars of 4g service. Also the speed feels like 3g about as fast as my rather sluggish wifi. Where 4g on my last phone was very fast. Talked to Google's advanced tech support and sent her a bug report of my device. She is supposed to get back to me.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jcomstock:
Yes it's been extremely frustrating. Spent all of my day off and last night on the phone troubleshooting. Just curious what does your phone display when you have 3g/4g/4gLTE ? Will prob go back to at&t and try a diffrent nano sim just to rule out that possibility.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jawmail:
You really need to look at your APN and make sure it's ATT phone like Nexus4to6p said. Post a shot of your APN settings here.

it's probably just a provisioning issue if it's not APN related like others have stated.

H displayed for hspa+
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enaybee:
I am sure you must have figured it out by now but just throwing it out there in case it helps.

If you simply took out your SIM card from old phone and put it in N6P (not that there is anything is wrong with that) take your phone and SIM card to AT&T ask them to add your phone (IMEI) and activate LTE on this IMEI. Unless something is wrong with your phone hardware wise, this should do it. Try it, you might get lucky and don't have to send your phone back.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Namuh:
I have the same issue and I've tried A few different APN's. Still on H no matter what APN I use. However, what could be wrong is that when I got my 6P I took my SIM card out of my Note 3, had an AT&T store cut it to Nano size so it would fit the 6P ( They were out of SIM cards that day) and went on my way. I later noticed that I only get H anywhere I go. Called AT&T and they said that the IMEI was updated on my account but the SIM card might be damaged from the store cutting it and to go get a new Nano SIM card. (Free at official AT&T stores) So I'm off to try that and I'll report back and see if that solves the issue. I'm rooted on PureNexus ROM and ElementalX Kernel as well.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdidasNYR:
Sounds like you are used to the way carrier phones display hspa as 4g and LTE as 4g LTE. This all started when the iPhone came out and on att and 3g was listed as 4g. And LTE as LTE. There is nothing wrong with your phone. Its being reported right by android. You are getting yourself worked up over just the way it's displayed. Let me ask you this, what phone are you coming from?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Namuh:
Well that would be cool if that's all it is! I'm coming from the Samsung Galaxy Note 3.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdidasNYR:
I promise you that is all this is. I came from an ATT branded note 3 as well. Think about it, your old note never said 3g, because your 3g would show as 4G and when you had LTE it would say 4gLTE. You guys are getting the same exact connection as you used to. Its just the way its displayed to you.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] divinewisdom:
4g = H, 4gLTE = LTE .

the carrier were the ones trying to call H, 4g when it shouldn't have, but did for marketing purposes.

H is HSDPA+.. Carriers were calling this 4G for a while. Your phone is fine nothing to see here unless you are supposed to be on LTE.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dahawthorne:
I ask because after installing stock MRA58R the contents of my N6 were still visible in Windows Explorer. So I reformatted userdata & cache, and then used the new NRT 2.0.7 to flash MRA58R again - wipe, no root, no recovery, no no-encrypt, just bog-standard install. The "Encrypting device" appeared for literally a few seconds, and now as it's sitting re-installing my apps from Google I can still see the contents of internal memory in Explorer. No USB debug, just a "Use USB for file transfer".

I have a multi-digit PIN on the phone, set up as part of the initialisation process.

I went through all this because my wife's phone was stolen last weekend and it was a wake-up call for me about my data security.

I'm sure I'm being particularly stupid. Can someone please educate me?

Thanks...
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dahawthorne:
And maybe I'm answering my own question...

The contents are visible to me because I entered the device PIN?

Anyone without the PIN gets to see nothing?

And that includes any access via ADB/fastboot?

But is this any different from a non-encrypted device?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NLBeev:
It is a method to store data that is only readable with the key used for encryption.

Your pin is something different and is used for access permission of a device.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dahawthorne:
Thanks, but my understanding is that the device PIN is the encryption key. You can't set encryption without having a device PIN. What else could it possibly be using?

So I guess I still don't understand if having my device encrypted is any better than having a simple PIN-secured unencrypted device. If someone can see my data via bootloader mode or some other back door how secure is it?

If I look at an encrypted file I expect to see hieroglyphics. That's not what I'm seeing here. I see either nothing at all because the device isn't recognised by my PC, or I have full access to the data.

So what effect should I expect to see that is different/more secure than a simple PIN-protected device? What's the actual benefit of encryption?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
Ill be honest. Your device is only as secure as the person that steals it. No amount of security has been 100% proven to prevent the data being attainable if they have access to the device its self. While I am not saying the average thieve will be bale to do it but, then all they care about is the device and end up wiping the device and reselling it without a care about the info inside it.
