Can you copy the files in the dev/block folder and send them too me? The 2 folders as well. I need some test from a working one. You are on the stock right? Not jasmine?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] aaroon200:
Ok I think I got it, you need to flash one more time the firmware OF1 with odin, but this time you're going to use a file called "PIT"

Put your device on Download mode, open Odin (use the latest version, Odin3 v3.10.7)

put the firmware image on AP, press pit and put the PIT file right there, go to options and make sure, Auto Reboot Re-Partition and F.Reset Time are ticked.

cross your fingers and Flash ...

ODIN latest version:

PIT file Download:

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/84115590/PIT Files/SM-N900V_USA_VZW_32G.pit

Oh ! take your sd card out and make sure the battery is 90%

Good luck!!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] thunderblaster88:
So I found a file in more of my search in one of the links where the dev had problems. Guy said back up with efs pro then find where it's backed up too and replace it with the one he posted. He has the vzw note and the file is for the 900t but I guess all the notes use this same file. So I go to efs pro and this happens. Have you ever used efs?

Here is the screen of him explaining it. If the op was dead that would be big help..but I'm wondering of the 4.3 which they were all on is all the same as 5.0? should be right? Also I'm wondering if I can maybe flash the pit of of1 or ob6 and see what happens but I can't find that. I think that it's the same as the old original from when the phone was released, I don't think it changed much.

Some other screens of stuff I was reading as well
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] thunderblaster88:
Lmfao?? look what I just posted as you posted this about the pit
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] aaroon200:
Lol!

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] thunderblaster88:
I'm about to try this now..I'll let you know how it goes.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] aaroon200:
It's going to work, I know [emoji111]

but If the pit is corrupted I have one from my device, I downloaded last month, just let me know
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] thunderblaster88:
It's flashing right now. I really hope it works!!!! I have been using odin 3.09 not that new one. I haven't had a Samsung for a few months so haven't had a use for it nor did i know their was a new one. I'll let you know in about 10-15 what happens
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] thunderblaster88:
How would you know if the PIT is corrupted?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] aaroon200:
Well, I really don't know, maybe the file is too old

if Odin took it it's fine.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] thunderblaster88:
No go still the same...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] aaroon200:
Did you do the setup wizard and everything? .

Still shows custom?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] thunderblaster88:
Yeah still all the same..I'm gonna try the efs that guy was talking about how. Also that's why i was asking about the files in those folders because I'm pretty sure they are corrupted
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] aaroon200:
Ok I will uploaded the files tomorrow, right now I'm in bed.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] thunderblaster88:
OK thank you sir. I'm going to try some things I was reading they were doing see if anything changes..goodnight
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] aaroon200:
I'm going to upload my PIT file too.

Goodnight.

This is what I did to fix this null imei/baseband problem. I went to FlashFire for like the 100th time which the other tike would just turn to a black screen and reboot when I tried to restore any of my back ups. This time I just did a wipe and it worked. So I tried the wipe with also adding a back up to it (the wipe must be done first) only need to check wipe delivk, then for the back up check everything but the system, recover, data. Manly it's just the system needs to be unchecked, the reason flashfire wasn't working to fix this right away is because the system wouldn't mount due to a software issue. After the reboot imei/baseband were back to normal again.

If anyone has this issue and needs help you can PM or post here.

[Xperia Z4 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThePhoneGeek:
Ok so I have an SGP771 that is on build 28.0.A8.260 and running the AndroPlus V12 kernel and I am attempting to update via Sony companion software. The software has downloaded the update and attempts to start the update, it shuts the tablet down then on the software screen I get:

Startup error

An error occurred while preparing to update your device. Your device is unchanged.

Please try again later. If the problem persists, contact Sony support.

Error code: UEGetPhoneInfoFailure

CompanionUE 3417, UE_2003

Ok so is this because I have the AndroPlus kernel? What am I missing, I haven't seen this problem articulated by anyone else so I am guessing I am missing something simple but can't for the life of me understand what.

I am new to Sony devices and certainly long for the simplicity of HTC updates... Why does Sony make things so difficult when it doesn't have to be...

I agree that smasung or HTC tablet is better as it has custom roms. But for me, having Sony tablet is also a great deal especially after being a user of ios, and having endless awaiting of jailbreak.

Pccompanion suppose you to have untouched system files, in order to save all your data on internal storage after an update , and if you modified it with xposed, luckypatcher and other stuff. Of course something goes wrong if pccompanion tries to update it with saving data.

For me, using flashtool is no problem at all. Important information is saved on sdcard, apps are recovered by google account.

P'S http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=468628 I downloaded flashtool from here....
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThePhoneGeek:
Thanks. My only point with HTC was that you only need to know your way around ADB and Fastboot really and you can load just about anything when the bootloader is unlocked.

I have Flashtool working but stuck at the part where I am trying to flash the update to the device as it says the device isn't in debug mode but I have usb debugging selected and I've reloaded drivers so I am not certain were to go from here with it.

I have one of these tablets which ships withinbuilt spyware ( aldi quality). I have removed some system files while removing the spyware. Hence i have no softkeys or notifications anymore.

Can someone out there supply a standard or other rom for this beast.

I bet it's the Operating System. My desktop has WinXP PRO SP2 and everytime i try to flash a ROM it simply hangs. I must reboot the hard way (using reset button) as not even CTRL+ALT+DEL work.

This will be the first phone I've had in years that I don't expect to see root. As such, it will also be the first phone I haven't used Viper on.

Just curious what the audio quality is like stock.

Edit: I've had the phone for a couple of days and it's not as bad as I was expecting. Pretty decent quality over BT. Not V4A, but much better than other phones have been stock.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] cuebask:
If you haven't had a phone heavily modded for sound your experience may be different. The S7 is awesome but stock sound is no where near what I've gotten used to. I keep my s4 running Hyperdrive, loud sound mod and viper for the car/Bluetooth. Once your used to that extremely loud and clear sound it's hard to go back. Just my thoughts.

Hey guys, I don't know if this is the appropriate section, sorry.I rooted my phone with king roots 3-4 days ago.And this evening my phone showed an official update.I thought it would be OK, since it showed me (because when I used grand 2, it didn't show official updates when it's rooted), this is why I thought like that.

Anyway, long story short the phone is not booting, it's stuck at the boot screen.When I tried to open recovery it says "It has been in recovery mode before, long press the power button for normal boot", and it says the same thing for download mode.

Now, is my phone officially toasted? Because last time I tried I couldn't get it to work with spflash tool either :( I've been just using it for 2 weeks.

[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] isntauser:
Hello

I am new to the rooting scene and my knowledge is limited, I have tried searching the forums but can't find the info I am looking for if any one can help or offer any information and point me in the right direction that would be great.

I have two identical phones both Moto G xt1068 titan dual sim variants. One phone I have unlocked the boot loader rooted and flashed cyanogenmod 13.0 and the other phone is fully stock MM 6.0.

When I rooted my 1st phone I was silly and didn't back up my recovery or I didn't exactly know how. What I am wanting to do is take a copy of the official MM 6.0 from my 2nd phone and move it to my rooted phone and also make a backup of the original recovery if that is possible without rooting or harming the OS on my original phone.

So my thinking is this.

I would unlock the boot loader on my stock phone and then from fastboot menu run TWRP "fastboot boot twrp.img" and then use that to backup the System / Data / Recovery Partitions.

Am I right in thinking that because I only booted into TWRP, that once I reboot my phone the original recovery and system will be all intact and all I would need to do is re-lock the bootloader?

And finally would I then be able to use the backup I made of my stock phone and restore this onto my 2nd phone were I can then root and make changes to my hearts content?

Is this possible? am I going about this the wrong way? any help or advice is very much appreciated and I hope I have explained in a way that makes sense.

Thank You

Loving my Samsung S7 and I bought Spigen S7 Ultra Hybrid case when it was on sale on Amazon.com.

http://www.spigen.com/collections/galaxy-s7/products/galaxy-s7-case-ultra-hybrid?variant=11908698561

Overall, the case is great but there is one flawed design. The raised bezel on the side of the phone is making it hard for swipe-in gesture. The S7 doesn't have much bezel/space on both sides of the phone. With the pronounced/raised bezel of the case, it's very hard to do swipe-in gesture. You will normally do this in Google Play store, Reddit is fun app and many other apps.

Just looking for other people with the same case and see if they have the same issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] peachpuff:
I don't have the spigen but i did just get a case where it has this issue, it has a big lip and my finger doesn't touch the edge of the screen and i can't swipe-in especially in the play store. I think google should increase the swipe-in area, but good luck with that.

you know i am having the same issue but i feel like these big cases also destroy all the beautiful curves, imm have to go for a super slim case. i think there is one by spine which is super slim so the lip problem will be eliminated.

I found a nice theme and installed it without any problems. But I would like to expand it with more icons so all my apps fit in.

I copied the theme to my PC unzipped it and placed the new icons in the icon folder. I named the icons with the right names (eg. com.twitter.android.png), zipped it all again and copied the modified theme to the hwthemes folder. But now the theme doesn't show up any more and the icons hasn't changed.

What am I doing wrong? How can I get the expanded theme to work?
[P8lite Themes and Apps] dereppsteiner:
rename to ---->>> com.twitter.android.png
[P8lite Themes and Apps] Regicollis:
Well that is exactly what I did and it didn't work.

It seems like the file names are not the problem. I did the following experiment:

Copy a working .hwt file from the HWThemes folder to my PC

Renaming it to .zip

Unzipping it with winRar (v4.11)

Zipping that folder right away without making any modifications to the contents of the folder

Renaming the new zip file to .hwt

Copying the new file into the HWThemes folder, using the exact same file name as before

The new .hwt file didn't work either. Unlike the old file it does not show up in the Themes app.

The new file was slightly larger than the old (11.659 KB vs. 11.631 KB) even though I zipped it using the highest level of compression.

This leads me to be pretty certain that it is not the file names that are the problem but rather the way the folders are compressed into .hwt files.

I hope someone will be able to help me since I would really like to get into EMUI theming.:)
