[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] numero9:
I got an S5 and want to sell my S3 that I've been running CM12.1 nightlies on now for the past year.

I'm having issues though just getting it back to complete stock through various stock TARs I've downloaded. I've soft bricked it a few times but it has bounced back after installing a recovery again in Odin. They're all on the front page of the Sprint S3 Android XDA forum, so it's not like I'm flashing something non-Sprint.

Here's what I've been doing:

I wiped and factory reset within TWRP recovery.

Then I flashed the stock recovery in Odin. That worked just fine.

Go into download mode, tried to flash the Stock NJ2 tar and it fails at aboot. Phone then says: SW REV CHECK FAIL: Fused 2 > Binary 1

I get the 'connect to Kies' error both when powering up and in recovery. Throw it back into download mode, flash stock recovery again. Works fine -- boots in CM12.1 again with no data fresh.

I then tried to flash stock MK3 and it failed too.

I've tried the latest Odin and 3.07 but both give me the same results.

Re-flashing any recovery (I've used stock and TWRP) both get it back to where it boots into CM12.1.

Any guidance on how I can get this thing back to a stock Touchwiz ROM with OTA updates so I can sell it on Craigslist or Swappa or something? I'd appreciate anything, I'm a loss here!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] numero9:
Nevermind! Thank goodness I found an old nandroid backup on an HD and it worked.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] zoB6T:
Any chance you could share your nandroid backup with me? I'm having the same problem getting my S3 back to stock.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
Don't try to flash mk3, you will hard brick if you've updated to nd8 or newer. You don't flash stock recovery at all. Just the stock tar in odin. Have you flashed the stock nd8 or nj2 .tar? Those are the ones you should be flashing. Just the stock .tar, nothing else. It has the right recovery in it. You may be messing up flashing stock recovery. Every build has a different version of recovery ,( like nd8 or nj2).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] numero9:
Yeah I flashed both and they didn't work from Odin. I was on NJ2. MK3 just soft bricked me only. Anyway it's a moot point now that I got it working.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] lox2013:
Based on Android 5.1.1 AOSP (What is AOSP?), Tesla ROM by Team Validus brings you years of experience and solid open source development to their latest Tesla ROM. *Tesla ROM shares a lot of roots with Slim ROMs and it comes with stuff like Slim launcher (which I really love) along with full floating multi-window support (enable Slim Recents in Settings).

As far as customization, you will be able to customize your phone easily through the Tesla Coil menu that includes tweaks for your quick settings, status bar, navigation bar (hardware/soft buttons, PIE Control, Power menu), recents button, and much much more.

Of course, best part about Tesla ROM is that it comes with support for overclocking out of the box (I recommend 2.726Ghz) via its custom kernel. *I was able to overclock it find to 2.726Ghz for many hours no problem and even ran a bunch of Antutu tests on it. *If you want to get your Note 3 to run just as fast as Note 4, this may be the closest solution without buying a new phone.

Overall, this is an excellent AOSP ROM that will convert your aging Note 3 into a Nexus beast with lots of customization and overclocking to the fullest so definitely give it a go and let me know what you think!

ROM

Don't know why it takes a long time to boot up might be a bug let me know how long does it take to boot up

[XDA Assist] dosaravioli:
Guys,

This is something very peculiar I have noticed with my phone. It doesn't connect to my router in the morning but only in the nights. I am not exactly sure about the timings but I connect the phone to my router in the nights at around 11-11:30 pm. I recently found this out. Until recently, I couldn't connect my phone to my router and was under the impression that there is some problem, which I didn't bother to pay attention to since I have my neighbors network to which I have the access. Now, my neighbor is on her vacation. So one night I tried connecting to my router out of desperation. Voila! it worked. Thats when I have started noticing this problem.

This sounds weird to me. Any suggestions that I anyone can think of?

Thanks.:)

Hey everyone. I have a stock htc m8 (rogers). Since upgrading to marshmallow I can no longer use wifi when I'm in airplane mode.

Any one else with this problem? Any known fixes?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xunholyx:
You could never use wifi in airplane mode. Ever. Airplane mode shuts off all data and connections. You can only use what is already on the device in that mode.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dglatt:
That is not true. In the past you could turn wifi on with airplane mode on. I had done it many times in low signal places or when travelling
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jshamlet:
This depends heavily on the device, but most devices consider airplane mode to mean all radios off, not just the cellular modem. That includes Wifi and bluetooth.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tony_5309:
Oh wow, I never realized that you can use WiFi while Airplane Mode is toggled on.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
What kind of post is that ? And what does it have to do with this thread ?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xunholyx:
I stand corrected.

On previous phones, I couldn't use wifi on airplane mode. I use it every night when I go to bed (and always have), and the wifi/bluetooth/data icons disappear from the status bar. I just tried turning on wifi after turning on airplane mode, and it turned on. Never knew.

It's good to know though, even if it is something that I will never use.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dglatt:
So I guess I'm the only one with this issue. Still not working for me.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xunholyx:
Not exactly. I am not running MM firmware right now.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
You can toggle WiFi and Bluetooth on/off while in Airplane Mode for every build on the M8 that I can remember; and for past HTC devices as well. Can't speak to other manufacturers, as HTC is the only smartphones I've ever owned! I also (like xunholyx) haven't updated to MM firmware, so can't speak about the OP's issue directly.

Its true that if you go into Airplane mode, it will shut-off WiFi and Bluetooth (if they are currently on). But you can then toggle WiFi and Bluetooth back on (and still stay in Airplane mode - meaning the cell radios are still turned off). Such as to keep in Airplane mode, but use on-plane WiFi; which is an acceptable condition on US air carriers.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bleys1704:
Same issue here

I have come across the same issue. With wifi now available on some planes especially when there run apps for entertainment apps wifi is needed.

I used to be able to turn it back on after turning flight mode on.

It is also the same with Bluetooth, unable to turn it back on after activating flight mode.

This has only changed with the last update and is ridiculously frustrating when flying alot.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haldi4803:
i have this problem on my M10....

I've restored a TWRP Backup while in Airplane mode and WiFi activated, now when in Airplane mode WiFI does not activate. Bluetooth does work.

It worked fine on previous ROM, but now on 1.80.401.3 WiFI stays offline.

Unlikely anyone here can help. We all have the M8.

You're better off posting to the "10" device forum, as there is probably much more activity there, anyway.

Same Issue- Fixed Mine

I had the same issue since upgrading to 6.x in March. Did a "soft reset" and that solved it.... Press and hold power and volume up for 10 seconds. I lost a few very minor settings that I had to redo, but it was minimal. :)

hey guys I'm having the same problem now . My phone died last night and when I charged it , turned it on turned out that all apps has lost their settings like permissions and also encountered that problem when I turn on air plane mode I can't turn on wifi so does soft reset erase anything ?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BryanNikson:
This has happened to me on multiple occasions. And the only way to fix it is through a factory reset. I wonder if there's any other way
[OnePlus 2 General] Gopinath15:
Got a oneplus 2... I was disappointed first to see my op2 dull...

Got to know that it comes with screen guard out of the box. Just now noticed it.

Is it a good move from op. How would a customer can check if the display is good or not, if you hinder with a scratch guard.... Don't wanna tear it in my new mobile :(
[OnePlus 2 General] pitrus-:
I think it's a good move of OP to have some kind of protection for the screen from start, however they could have included a small note on the box so the user knows why the screen is so smudge magnetic. I've replaced it by a $2 hardened glas screen protection from AliExpress so now it's silky smooth and smudge free ?
[OnePlus 2 General] rosswaa:
The screen protector that comes with it is awful and makes the screen have a blurry yellow tinge. Switch it for a tempered glass o e and its a million times clearer with no yellow
[OnePlus 2 General] Naprzod:
For me its okey, i have it for 2 months and no noticeable scratches on the protector and the screen looks awesome. It's a really nice gesture from them.

When factory reset doesn't solve the problem, most probably hardware related issues
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hugoprh:
I'm having similar problems, including flash light not working as well, I've seen some disassemble videos and noticed that the flash is part of the back frame, so if you remove the back cover and push down, next to the word "camera", on top of the metallic antenna strip, the flashlight will start working and camera sometimes as well, so I've ordered a T4 and T3 screw driver and I'll see if any pins are not connected properly, maybe raise a bit of the pins of the motherboard, that touch the flash contacts on the back frame and see if it fixes it ;)

Let me know if you are still having these issues, if not, how did you fix it.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hugoprh:
So I got the phone open and it's very weird, without the back frame removed, the camera works always and when I put it on, it stops working, so I thought that something was shorting some circuit, tried to isolate all contacts from the back frame, antennas and everything just to see it would still happen and it does, so it does not seem to be shorting anything, just the pressure of the cover seems to disable the camera, so what I did for now was add some plastic (old SIM card cut into peaces :p ), put it between the SIM tray and back frame and all working fine now. It's a temp fix, but it's a fix =D

Hope this can help someone with the same issue.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hugoprh:
One more update, what I did on the above post, was only temporary, after a day, it started happening again, no camera, so went back in again, turns out this issue was being cause by the front facing camera, when I removed it, the main camera started working straight away. Now all is good, just no front facing camera which I don't really care for =P but if anyone knows where I can get one, there is a guy on eBay selling one, but £16 seems a bit much, if anyone knows where I can get a front facing camera for the Moto X Play, please let me know.

[Nexus 6P Accessories] TechBSwift:
I do not work for CHOETECH, I merely providing informative information because I've tested several usb type-c cables and chargers, and the CHOETECH are still some of my favorites. Also you can check out my video reviews of all for several companies on my youtube channel. 'Techbswift'.. I reviewed a CHOETECH wall charger weeks ago and I still use it everyday.

http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6p/accessories/choetech-rapid-charger-actually-nexus-6p-t3263173

So CHOETECH has heard it's customers loud and clear and they continue to ensure all their products meet the standards. They are getting ready to release an updated car charger and a new top of the line 3 in one wall charger. The wall charger will be extremely sweet because it will be the first on the market that provides a 3 in one charger, and it will follow type-c standards. I'm extremely pumped because it will have the ability to charger my 12" Macbook Retina and my phone at the same time. Having only one usb port on the Macbook sucks... The charger will also have auto detect so if you are charging less say your Nexus 6p and a Note 5, it will know the exact settings to charger the Note 5.

The updated car charger will drop sometime around the end of the month ( I hope) and will be an updated version of the charger they released. I still use the old charger but I guess they wanted to ensure their car charger meets 100% of the expectations of usb type-c standards.

I stole some of this information from the web pages on Amazon, and if you haven't grabbed one of the old but amazing wall chargers yet the link is below.

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B019Z7RVK0

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B017I7EX46/

1. 5v/3a type c rapid adapter is the first 3rd 5v/3a USB-C adapter on the market now.

2. With a 5v/3a type c port, the upcoming 39W 3 ports type c wall charger will be perfectly compatible with most type c devices, like 12'' Retina Macbook, Google Pixel C, Nexus 6p/5x, Lumia 950/950 XL etc, the other two auto-detect ports can charge most of android devices and apple devices, which will be a must have at home and on office desk.

3. As for the upcoming 33w Type C car charger, with an Quick Charge 2.0 port and a Type C 5V 3A charging port, this car charger can charge most of devices also.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] RHChan84:
That's good service right there. I will wait for the new one to be released to pick one up.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Haul:
For #1, they really need to ditch their wall wart design and move on to power bricks like Anker and Aukey did long, long ago.

#2 looks like the first of it's kind.

#3 is already available and is just OKAY. At $16 and no included USB type-C cable, you're not really saving anything over the Google charger on the Google Store.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Nekromantik:
Im dissapointed they dont release these in the UK.

We have no type c wall charger apart from Google official.

Hi, guys

i have a MOTO G 2015, model XT1544 , and i would like some help with some issues i'm suffering .

First i got the startup blocked from google account ( i forgot the email ), so to solve this i think i could reinstall the stock rom on it, but after trying for a few hours i didnt get any results. The bootloader was blocked and did not knew that , the rom never got installed sucessfully.

So now the phones starts normally, but i cant find any wifi connections, i think the wifi stopped working.

I need the wifi working to insert my google account on the device , or at least try to remember it .

Is there any way i could unlock oem from fastboot ? Or at least reinstall the stock rom on it with bootloader blocked ? i downloaded a few stock roms to the XT1544 model but they cannot be installed successfully, is this normal ?

PS. I really cant send it to motorola , i've lost the box of the phone and with it, the invoice and all documents.

Sorry for my bad english , im from Brazil , and thanks for your help
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] christopherrrg:
Make an account with Motorola.

Request bootloader unlock from Motorola.

Unlock bootloader.

Profit.

You really have no reason not too at this point.

Edit - but if you're trying to just fastboot a stock image it should work regardless if bootloader is unlocked or not so it sounds like you've used the wrong device image. If you don't want to reset anything find the boot.IMG of the correct image and fastboot that.

Your radio is not correct, that's what boot.IMG is.
