[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WILMANS2M:
Hello the community,

i'd like to ask you for help because i don't manage to make it.

Here is the problem :

1/ i flashed last firmware for the phone

2/ then root it, install latest busybox....

3/ dump from my phone cache & system using this :

dd if=/dev/block/platform/13540000.dwmmc0/by-name/CACHE of=/sdcard/cache.img

dd if=/dev/block/platform/13540000.dwmmc0/by-name/SYSTEM bs=4096 of=/sdcard/system.img

I check it using linux reader. No problem at all

4/ Then repack those 2 files with others files which are on stock tar file (boot, hidden...)

5/ Launch Odin, put my tar on AP then flash.

- All were ok until it came to cache.img then fail

On stock tar, there is a system.img (not .raw). Don't know if it is sparsed but....i suppose as it needs to be converted to bre used with linux reader.

So i dunno what to do to have a valid cache.img & system.img

If you can help me, i will be grateful.

Thanks for all.

Hi

I'm trying too making a pre rooted stock rom flashable through odin. But i get everytime a "failed" from Odin.

However why are using your cache instead of cache.img present in stock firmware?

Try unpack stock firmware and replace only custom "system.img" that contains root and finally repack stock firmware!
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WILMANS2M:
Well some info i need is in cache ;)
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] malbert16442:
why don't you make a flashable zip since you know the partions then add root
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xenord21:
A stock firmware pre-rooted flashable through odin is more comfortable whenever you wanna reset your phone isn't need to using FlashFire or Mobile Odin. IMHO
[LG Optimus 4X HD] pirasalbe:
Hello,

I've a problem with power button, it is damaged, and turn it on is very difficult so I've thought that the best way to do it is remapping vol- button to behave as power button and I've already found how to do it.

Could this fix work???

Is there another way to turn it on without power button???

Thanks for help
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hordarian:
I have a V500 that won't boot, and doesn't appear to charge either. Here's what it will do:

1) When plugged into a mains charger, flash up the LG logo briefly. I don't need to press the power button for this to happen.

2) When plugged into a mains charger with both volume keys held down, boot into download mode.

If I plug it into a USB port it won't power on. It will briefly be detected by Windows but not as any useful device. I cannot get it into download mode when it's connected to a USB port, and if I do (2) then unplug it powers off.

My powered USB hub has an indicator light. With the tablet connected, whenever I press the power button this light comes on for a second or so. If I connect the USB cable whilst holding down both volume keys this light also comes on, but the tablet does not go to download mode.

I have already changed the main flex cable in case this was the problem.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cluey:
Try it with one of the USB plugs at the back of the computer.

I've got devices I can transfer files on and off via the hub built into my monitor but if I want to do anything lower level I have to use a USB port on the computer.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hordarian:
I have finally been able to sort this.

I'm not sure precisely what was wrong. I changed the internal USB flex cable and this made no difference.

Next I bought a switchable "data/charging" USB cable that was very useful in diagnosing circumstances where it would enter download mode.

After much messing around I found I could plug the device into a powered USB hub that wasn't connected to a laptop and enable download mode, then connecting the hub to the laptop it would stay in download mode and allowed me to reflash it back to stock so I knew the software was at least okay.

It still wouldn't do anything other than show the initial bootloader logo though, and this only when plugging in a cable. Pressing the power button did nothing.

Since it was still open, I disconnected the battery. Tried powering on with the cable connected, nothing. Left the cable connected, connected the battery - bing! We have life.

It's now bootlooping but it's playing animations and making sounds, so I'm hopeful I can factory reset the device. The power button works at least :)
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hordarian:
Great success! Device is working :)
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mirek Goldberg:
Clarification, please

If you have a V500, explain how you can hold VOLUME button simultaneously in UP and DOWN position. It's just one rocker button, but you keep referring to it as 2 separate volume buttons. This goes for madscout quoted solution as well.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradavon:
Using two fingers. It's one rocker but you can hold both buttons down at the same time.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mirek Goldberg:
I think we're not on the same page as far as my query goes. Forget the POWER button - it is not an issue. Because VOLUME button is a rocker it is impossible to hold down VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN positions simultaneously as madscout solution advises: "Now press and hold the power and volume up button while keeping your hold on the volume down button". Such trick is impossible even with 3 fingers, because the Volume rocker can be pressed and held either in Up or Down position. Madscout wants us to keep it pressed in both positions simultaneously, the crucial phrase being "while keeping your hold". Now, do you get my drift? And explain to me what madscout meant? Thanks!
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hordarian:
My V500s allow the whole rocker to be pressed in at the same time. It's not a true rocker.

If you open the device up, you will see two independent buttons.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mirek Goldberg:
REALLY? That's a surprise. Thanx, bro. Sneaky LG put in fake rocker button.. Meaning, that madscout's solution requires 3 fingers - 1 for Power and 2 for Volume.

Or 1 finger only for Volume if it's pressed exactly in the middle. Crazy world.:)
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bjelko:
Any help? Similar situation at my Gpad - usually after initial animation is powered off. If I make factory reset i can start device, i can adjust some setings, but in a few minutes it is switching off. V50020F and no root is there.

For users in China (no 3G), what would be the best radio?

half a year ago 1.27 was the most stable one...

but now there are more new radios out there...

so vote for the best radio you!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jdel:
I've been using radio 1.50 on China mobile since it was released. It works great in both HK and China. The GPRS coverage in some remote areas is not so strong, but in the cities is generally good. 3G in HK is great.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] hwpeter:
not much people seems to be interested in the matter of using in China

Is there a program to test the battery life and the signal power?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] cowboy086:
I use the lastest rom 1.51,it works very well.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] natesiy:
I'm using 1.41.00 with a China Mobile SIM in Beijing. Decent reception, good battery life.

Still hunting around for the best one for China now. I heard 1.54 has some problems wrecking hardware, so i'm weary of testing that one.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] AikonCN:
Maybe Radio 1.47.30.10 is the best choice in China mainland,

Because it has:

1.The lowest consumption of power;

2.Beyond average siginal quality;

3.EDGE support;

4.Stable and speedy data connection.

That's all.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ceanth:
Hi all,

I am installing CM13 on a Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini LTE serranoltexx and I have an issue with Gapps.

The ROM installs fine but once I install Gapps I get a forced closed messages. I checked a few guides and they suggested that this was due to the application permissions on CM13 but when I check these they appear to be fine.

Under the application menu I can see that the apps which Gapps installs are grayed out, almost like they are installed on the SD card but the SD card is missing! I have tried a number of times to delete cache but no luck.

I am using opengapps. I just tried using CM12 with open gapps but I get the same exact issue, therefore I think this is an issue with Gapps.

Can anybody offer any advise on how to get this working?

Thanks,

c

Can you advise which recovery I would need to install to be compatible with using OTA Cyanogenmod updates?

You can also flash updates manually. Don't need to outoflash ��

But if you want to OTA update you should use cyanogen recovery. https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=serranoltexx

You can see cyanogenmod recovery right of the cyanogenmod build.

The solution work?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haroon786:
Here's what worked for me.

First of all, I'm using TWRP 2.8. The root tutorial I followed gave me CWM so I switched my self. After that I tried installing gapps and I ran into the setup wizard and google app force closures. What seemed to have worked for me was to flash the ROM again which I downloaded through CM updates (it goes to the folder 'cmupdater' in your internal storage), boot, enable dev options, turn on advanced power menu, reboot to recovery through powr menu, install gapps micro and then reboot WITHOUT wiping dalvik/cache. I hope this helps some of you guys as it is what worked for me. It's sounds like alot but its the exact steps I followed.

---------- Post added at 10:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:40 PM ----------

Flash manually thought TWRP/CWM(TWRP recommended) . the ROM is saved in internal storage in a folder called 'cmupdater'.

Hello, I am from Austria and since the X Force ist now available in my country I immediately ordered it. I really love this Phone hence one thing. Voice quality when calling is really bad.

Put most of your apps/apps you don't usually use to always optimize!
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HKSpeed:
I turned off the notification by going to settings>battery and selecting "Turn off" or "Always optimizing" for every app shown. The "Automatically optimizing" option (3, 5, or 7 days) will create the notification if the app isn't used by the number of days selected. Remember that when an app is optimized (either always or auto after 3/5/7 days), the app will not update or give you notifications until you open it.

Okay, so I'm having this problem where my phone get stucks in a bootloop when I flash back to stock.

The only way it gets out of bootloop, is if I install root. The problem is I'm trying to go back to stock firmware for now, but my phone refuses to get out of the Samsung logo every single time I try and run stock.

My guess is it might have something to do with the partition.

I notice when I'm doing a factory reset/wipe.

It has consistently said how it can't mount, and I'm guessing something is wrong with my partition, because I got the right firmware for my phone. It's N-902T.

If anyone has advice on this, I'd greatly appreciate it. Right now, I have no choice but to run a rooted phone until I figure out a way to get back to stock.
