does using the edlclient actually work when flashing alcatel boot images? i tried with my 5044r and flashing didnt work at all, the boot partition wasnt overwritten at all, leading me to think the loader file doesnt have the permissions to write partitions
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] Fernando Negro:
I could see a progress bar, when executing step 4.5 of the guide - both when rewriting the boot partition with the modified "lk2nd" .img file and when restoring the boot partition with the backup I had made of the original - followed by a message saying that the procedure had been successful.

[Honor 7 Themes and Apps] SkilesAwaRz:
Hey everyone !

Basically, this tutorial is here to explain you how to SPEED UP ANIMATION. I find my phone way more efficient.

NO ROOT NEEDED.

1 - Enable DEVELOPER OPTIONS :

Go to Settings, About phone.

Tap many times on the second line (Build number) until the popup shows "You are now a developer".

View attachment 3864804

2 - Change settings :

Go to settings, developer options.

Scroll to the line called : Window animation scale.

Put Windows animation scale and Transition animation scale to 0,5x.

View attachment 3864813

3 - You may need to RESTART your phone.

You should now notice that transitions are way more faster, you really get your phone more efficient switching app, navigating through menus,...

Feel free to leave a comment if you have any question or suggestion. ;)
[Honor 7 Themes and Apps] DigiGoon:
Yes, decreasing animation scales is always a good idea to get your phone snappy. :D :D

But I keep it at 1x, as I tend to enjoy the animation sometimes. :D :D :) ;)
[Honor 7 Themes and Apps] SkilesAwaRz:
I also like animations that's why I don't disable them :D but in my opinion it is worth the time you get putting them at 0,5x !

[Honor 7 Themes and Apps] DigiGoon:
Yes, it becomes a lot snappy when we set it to 0.5x.

It actually seems like that it doesn't take any time loading anything, and just fetches everything from the RAM. :D :D
[Honor 7 Themes and Apps] SkilesAwaRz:
Yup, as a daily use, I love it :)

[Honor 7 Themes and Apps] DigiGoon:
Sometimes, I also switch to it. :D :D
[Honor 7 Themes and Apps] SkilesAwaRz:
At the beginning it seems strange but when you're used to, you can't come back haha [emoji1]
[Honor 7 Themes and Apps] mrengineer:
when you adjust "Animator duration scale", it will affect the camera timer.
[Honor 7 Themes and Apps] SkilesAwaRz:
Didn't know that, thanks for the info.

[Honor 7 Themes and Apps] PalakMi:
Disabling them is better to me
[Honor 7 Themes and Apps] venom007:
i think is a common way for all android devices....just disabling animations:D

morover uninstalling bloatwares and disabling unwanted and unusefull system apps may also contribute in reduced lags

You got it right :good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] meantomatoes:
I'm trying to see if I can recover from a hard brick after flashing a corrupt .pit file. However, I can only find unbrick images for the other s2 model. May someone please create an image from their i777 using the script I attached to this post? I haven't tested the script so I'm not sure it'll work. This will copy almost everything on your device I believe.

EDIT: Unfortunately, it seems I was dumb enough to super hard brick my S2 by flashing a corrupt .pit file. So don't do that. However, if you don't have a super hard bricked i777 but just hard bricked, you can use this image and use Win32DiskImager to "burn" the image onto an SD card that must be at least 16 GB in size. Then, take the battery out of your device, stick the SD card in, stick the battery on, and power up. You might need to burn the image a couple times. This will allow your hard bricked device to boot to the OS if not just download mode. If this doesn't work, a JTAG might work though it's unlikely, or you need the EMMC chip to be totally replaced. Good luck. Googling "hard brick SD card" might warrant better instructions than these. The file attached is an .sh script to create an unbrick image for any device in case you need it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
Have you checked this thread by [MENTION=2916435]creepyncrawly[/MENTION], because it will have what you need to recover your device. Specifically check out section 2a; I think that will help you. If you're successful with the 2a method, do a factory reset in the stock recovery before booting into the ROM - otherwise you'll encounter a bootloop.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] meantomatoes:
My device isn't soft bricked, it's hard bricked. Completely dead. My only hope is getting an unbrick image or a JTAG which is more expensive than to get a new S2.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
Unfortunately I know if no "unbrick image" for the i777, but [MENTION=2916435]creepyncrawly[/MENTION] has a .pit file in his signature if I remember. That may be your only option.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] meantomatoes:
Wouldn't be able to use the .pit file without an unbrick image. Someone with a working i777 can make one with a script. I know that this works for some hard bricks, but considering I flashed a corrupt .pit file, I'm not sure it would work for mine. I just fixed a hard bricked S3 last night for an unrelated reason, but the partition table was fine, it just wouldn't boot. I attached the unbrick creator script to this post and OP in case people don't have it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] echow2001:
how do you plan to flash the unbrick file? I have a working i777 and will be happy to help as long as its not too risky. So just flash the zip you attached and grab the file collected by dd? I have CM recovery, not cwm or twrp, what recovery should I use? Will it work if i just do the dd command from adb shell?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] meantomatoes:
An unbrick file is basically your whole internal SD duplicated. When a phone is hard bricked, it scans the SDs for a working bootable OS, like a computer. You just have to format the SD card to FAT32 and essentially burn the image onto the SD card. It shouldn't change the internal SD card if it successfully boots off the SD card, but when you boot up you can use a terminal or something to fix your internal SD. No flashing necessary on either end. Looking at the script (it's not a flashable zip), it looks like it needs BusyBox. It'll make a directory at /sdcard/Unbrick Files, on your external SD card. I have no idea how much space it'll take up, but my guess is it'll be the size of however much used space your device has. I'm pretty sure any recovery (built into the kernel) would work but this is speculation since I've never used a non-stock unbrick img. As long as it's compatible with the OS currently installed. And I'm also not sure this will work at all because my internal SD's partition table is completely corrupted I think, but it's worth a try since this worked on a hard bricked S3 last night.

I think you need to open a terminal and run the unbrick creator .sh in su mode. Don't flash it. I'm pretty sure the dd command over adb is flashing and not like creating an image right?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] echow2001:
OK. so just run the commands in terminal with root? Will a 16gb sd card do? That is all I have atm.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] meantomatoes:
As long as you don't have more than 16 gigs of files, yup.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] echow2001:
OK. I will do it after charging up. It will probably be tomorrow before I upload it because I have much better internet at school.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] meantomatoes:
No problem, any file hosting site will do.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] echow2001:
Just did it, its only 27MB

Looks good? I can upload it now if this is the right one.

there you go! use at your own risk as always, but you have nothing to lose since you are already bricked ;)

You have to use Win32DiskImager to "burn" the .img onto the SD card. This will format it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] echow2001:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] echow2001:
EMMC corrupted likely
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] meantomatoes:
So I tried booting from the SD card and...nothing. I tried rewriting the SD card a couple times which is suggested and that still didn't work. I think this has to do with me flashing a corrupted .pit file and hard-hard bricking it; not even JTAG would fix this. However now it's now common knowledge that if you mess up all your partitions on your internal SD by flashing the wrong .pit, it's totally unrecoverable as far as I know. I may revisit this another day, but many thanks for helping anyway. I'll attach your unbrick image to the OP so other people with hard-bricked i777s can use it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] echow2001:
I think the phone won't boot of the SD if the emmc is corrupt, it will only boot off ad by default if emmc is blank. You need to somehow prompt it to boot from SD. I think on the s3 i747 you short some pin near CPU to ground, but idk for the s2 i777.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] meantomatoes:
Can't seem to find anything on this. Either search results for the procedure listed previously or a lock screen pin come up. Was this on xda?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] echow2001:
I didn't read too much in depth because I wasn't bricked at the time.

Here is the thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2549068

I think I must have remembered wrong, it was the lg g3 where you could get Quallcomm DL mode by shorting out test points. What shows up on the phone with and without sd? Nothing? Black screen(backlight on) or something else?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] meantomatoes:
Plain dead, nothing. Had an S3 the other night like that and it was bricked but I didn't flash the wrong .pit, just a Verizon bootloader acting up. The SD card procedure worked fine but that's only because the emmc was functional. Pretty sure even the core bootloader is inaccessible. Saw that thread but obvi didn't see anything about the bypass. Just searched for LG G3 and saw a Reddit tutorial for a DYI JTAG without a $100 JTAG unit. This might be useful. Here it is.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] echow2001:
Reddit is blocked at school I'll take a look in a few hours when I get home, is it similar to this? http://xdaforums.com/sprint-lg-g3/general/guide-fix-hard-brick-recovery-guide-t3132359

They also blocked imgur for being "porn" but my friend says he can get on pornhub no problem. Not gonna check, I'm too innocent ;)

EDIT- I had to use reddit anyways and got tor running, yea it is the same method. Short that pin to ground and then it is in QCom DL mode
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] meantomatoes:
Cloud VPN works every time for me at school. :) I'll look into this JTAG method for the S2, but I'm pretty sure the S2 is harder to do.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] echow2001:
The s2 is exynos which means there is no QCOM DL mode. Sorry, but that method will not work for i777
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] meantomatoes:
No way to force trigger booting from SD you're saying? without a $150-200 riff box?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] echow2001:
Nope, that was me getting stuff all mixed up. :D Can you try the DL mode jig with the sdcard? Also, if you have a multimeter can you see how many amps is it drawing from the charger and how many volts on battery terminals when plugged in?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] meantomatoes:
Unfortunately I don't have a multimeter or a jig. I tried getting into download mode by putting in the SD, battery, and I held the volume buttons and plugged in a USB, which is apparently what you're supposed to do normally.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] echow2001:
OK, what does the computer see? IDK if there is a low level access for exynos processors like QSUSB
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] meantomatoes:
Nothing, the phone is off and it's bricked anyway. It didn't get into download mode is what I was saying.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] echow2001:
OK. Not even a device connect sound? Then you may be screwed, apparently the jtag pins are really small and hard to get to on this device.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] meantomatoes:
Yeah, you need an adapter that attaches to a connector that 90% of S2 PCBs don't have, meaning you'll have to microsolder. No thanks. And even with the adapter, it connects to a JTAG box, which I don't have. Unless the S2 has a trigger like the LG.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] echow2001:
I would just say screw it, but burn the sd card once more but with a linux box (vm will do) and dd just to make sure.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] meantomatoes:
How might I do that?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] echow2001:
dd bs=4M if=/path/to/UnbrickFile.img of=/dev/sdx status=progress

MAKE SURE that sdx is your sdcard. You may destroy your os if you select wrong disk.

No success in reviving my hard-bricked i777

Phone was hard-bricked after Samsung boot logo freezes for over 2 minutes, which prompted me to reboot, but phone only:

- warms up,

- unable to enter recovery/download mode,

- shows a dead black screen,

- and not detectable by PC when connected via USB.

Followed the instructions to burn the image on a 32GB SD card but have no success. even after few repetitions. Eventually sent the phone for a motherboard replacement.

Here is some info about the phone before hard-bricked, which may offer some insights into why the phone was hard bricked and/or why the recovery method didn't work:

- ROM: C-ROM Android 4.4.4

- Kernel: Shift kernel (For i9100 AOSP Kit Kat compatibility on i777)

- Internal data storage was partitioned to 4GB.

- Observation 1: Phone couldn't sleep and keep getting high clock frequency. Significant heat was generated while in use.

- Observation 2: Ringtones and notification sounds kept disappearing after every few days and I have to reassign manually.
