This looks like a soft brick but can you tell us more about your device ( model , software ) ?

Thank you

It's a BLU Vivo 6. it runs android marshmallow

Hi !

Some devices just can`t be unlocked without a prover support from the manufacturer

You can search for more on Google and wait for development , your case is far from unique

I see that you have alredy posted same issue here

Edit: Title should read "SD Card" (how to edit that?)

I have root and I am trying to get Link2SD to work. I have created the FAT32 (primary) and EXT4 (primary) partitions but I keep getting a mount script error ("unable to mount") (Also tried EXT2)

I am doing the same thing as I have done on several other devices and it is not working on the samsung.

Also, I am having issues with getting Titanium Backup to wrtie to the SD card too. I tried the Kitkit SD card patch but it failed.

I know the SD card works so I am thinking it is a wonky Samsung thing?

Thoughts or advice

Edit: Pulling SD card, re-inserting and rebooting and then Link2SD reports that the 2nd partition is not accessible during boot (and suggests quick boot to fix which it does not). Samsung says the FAT32 is fine but the EXT is "corrupt" but I have confirmed on two other devices it is fine.

So this seems to be some sort of access thing. Maybe related to the removal of encryption patch as part of the TWRP install?

Edit2: cat /sys/block/mmcblk2/device/type gives back "no such file or directory"; (whereas mmcblk1 gives SD)

Total commander shows sd-card (which is internal /storage/emulated/0), sd-card(2) "/data/sdext2"), and USB (SD FAT32 as /storage/BDB2-8960)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] chemie99:
Got TB fixed anyway. Backup one file (on device internal location), move the directory to external SD card, then TB decided it is was OK to include that location under settings so select new location.

Now need Link2SD. Could this be a mount script write issue? Encryption issue (I removed it from internal via a scripted)?

Runings Mounts2SD, installed scripts, reboot but it says External is "not mounted". Link2SD still fails with those scripts installed.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] moxalis:
Link2SD never worked for me either no matter what I did. Apps2SD works flawlessly. Links data, apk, obb files and everything without any issues on ext4 format.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] chemie99:
I tried installed Apps2SD but it never asked for root and decided half the apps could not be moved. I figured it was just offering the usual stock "move apps" which moves marginal amount.

Samsung says that the EXT partition is corrupt but Aparted says it is fine. EXT2, and EXT4 created in either Minitool or Aparted are simply not read.

Mount2SD adds scripts to mount but the partition remains unmounted after reboots.

What format does Samsung want?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] moxalis:
Samsung reads the partition as corrupt but Apps2SD is using it just fine. You should delete any mount scripts and re-create them through the Apps2SD application.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] chemie99:
How do I manually delete the mount scripts?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] moxalis:
There is the option "Delete mount scripts" in the Apps2SD app. Check their FAQ page for any questions, it's pretty helpful.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] otamaglimmer:
Hello! I was having just the exact same problem with my T580.

I just loged in to say how I fixed it:

Open SuperSU app -> Settings.

Check "Enable su during boot"

Uncheck "Mount namespace separation".

After a reboot, Link2SD detected the 2nd partition!

EDIT: Now I fin another issue. If I try to link Obb, it says my device is using "sdcardfs". It offers to install fuse insted to fix it, but after rebooting I still getting the same message.

What could I do?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] chemie99:
Seems Link2SD does not like Marshmallow so I switched to Apps2SD (which also suggests what you did). It would not create the partition itself but took windows EXT4 and after a bunch of config, worked. The issue I now have is that Samsung still thinks the card is corrupt (which it isnt); any EXT partition and it says that. So on any reboot it greets me with a system notification of a corrupt card (which I want to get rid of but so far can't)..

I did try adoptable using a scripts from this site (didn't work) and the Apps2SD option. Seem to work on device but windows only saw the device memory so would not copy anything when it reported full.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] chemie99:
took another kick at the cat today; installed Apps2SD, created mount scripts, but now, for reasons unknown, it no longer reports the SD as corrupt on boot (although it does say that partition is corrupt from the storage setting menu. Weird. No idea why it is no longer doing this. I will say the reinstall was funny. I had to delete and recreate the mount scripts several times (all said it worked) to actually get apps to move without disappearing. perhpas I ended up with a different mount script method in all the trying

My son's D802 was updating (it was on 4.4 but it has never updated before but who knows). He said it was on about 45% battery and the update started - he described the USB symbol and the progress bar. Part way through it stopped and nothing will make it respond. I have tried all the usual combination of holding the power button, power and volume up. I have also disconnected the battery and left it plugged in. But nothing works. No response on the screen or charging light. So is it dead or is there anything else I can try.

So I rooted my samsung galaxy s6 edge sm-g925f running 6.0.1 today. This is my first root ever so obviously I've run into a problem.

Used this kernel - SpaceX-Kernel_MM_RC2.1_G925F.tar.md5

&

This version of TWRP - TWRP-3.0_MM_S6-edge_by_ManhIT.tar.md5.

with Beta SuperSU v2.52

I installed ROMtoolbox lite and tried to install custom boot animation only to discover that samsung uses a proprietary software and the animation files have the .qmg extension.

Anyway long problem short.....I clicked on ROM installer in ROM toolbox lite and was tempted to see the words "Samsung boot animation fix", so i went ahead and clicked on download and then installed it.

Then I remember clicking on reboot in recovery...ROM toolbox asked me which recovery I used...I selected TWRP recovery and eversince then I'm stuck at TWRP where each time i reboot i go straight to TWRP recovery.

Anyone any idea what this might be?

Thanks for reading. :)

[Samsung Gear S3] warpgatex:
Hey guys!

Is there any way to force remote connection using wifi instead of BT? For some reason, my phone + gear s3 doesnt connect remotely anymore .. It can only connect via BT. It started happening today. Last night it was fine.

I go to my basement all the time and my BT disconnects due to distance (if i left my phone).

Now im worried its probably a defect. Both my phone and s3 are in the same wifi network. I tried using a different wifi network as well.

Thanks in advanced.
[Samsung Gear S3] Tel864:
Have you tried a reset of the Gear?
[Samsung Gear S3] warpgatex:
Im trying now. :(
[Samsung Gear S3] SFVDan:
I don't remember my S3 ever remotely connecting via WiFi. It would do it over the cellular network once I breezed out of Bluetooth range, but it never told me about WiFi.

In fact, the remote connection via cellular is awfully intermittent. The only thing that seems to restore it is a reset of the S3. Even after that, though, I've never seen mine remotely connect on WiFi.

The whole remote connection thing seems to be dicey at best, in my experience.
[Samsung Gear S3] jestexman:
I have the opposite mine seems to connect remote over wifi just fine but not really over cell connection.. i have not tested tho.. i will today and update you guys.
[Samsung Gear S3] Manijak84:
Yeah I have never seen it connect to the Phone via WiFi... only via BT. If the watch loses range, it will connect to a Wifi (if it is enabled, Always on or Auto), but would not communicate with the phone. So it's "Standalone, but with wifi".

It worked like this out of the box. Bought the GearS3 in the US. I'm not sure if connecting to phone via wifi is even possible....
[Samsung Gear S3] Half Colin:
I can confirm that it does connect via WiFi although I was totally unaware that it could.

Yesterday I returned to my house from visiting my daughters house and realised I didn't have my phone. Thinking that I had dropped my phone in the car I used my house phone to call my mobile and my S3 on my wrist started ringing. This convinced me that although I couldn't hear it ringing my phone must be in the car but then my daughter answered my phone that I had left at her house! So my mobile was connected to her WiFi and my S3 was connected to my WiFi, which are 30 miles apart, yet but my S3 was synced with my phone.
[Samsung Gear S3] SFVDan:
That's really neat! I've never experienced that. :)

Samsung ought to create a small app that will reestablish whatever mechanism there is to make the remote connection thing reliable. It's fantastic when it works, but if you're not on Bluetooth, it's a crap shoot if it'll work or not.

One other observation. In my experience, updating Samsung Pay on the phone seems to break whatever mechanism there is for reliable remote connection. Even after logging in/verifying the Samsung Account, it seems to break it. Weird.

Dan
[Samsung Gear S3] Half Colin:
Yeah, it totally blew me when my daughter answered my phone because I was convinced it must be connected by Bluetooth and so in the car.
[Samsung Gear S3] jestexman:
Now wait a min lol.. mine does not do that.. only get notification not calls.. i have a vzw note edge.. what kind of phone do you have? I was thinking when i bought the watch that it would take calls over wifi so i could basically leave my phone in my office and roam around the office and still take calls all on wifi.. that does not seem to be the case for me anyway.. guess i need to do some more testing. If it works like you say then this is great news.

---------- Post added at 08:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:58 AM ----------

also mine says standalone when it has lost the BT from the phone says its connected via wifi..
[Samsung Gear S3] Half Colin:
I didn't say I answered the call on my S3. My S3 buzzed and showed call from home but before I could do anything else my daughter answered the call on my phone. So the S3 was obviously connected via WiFi and internet to my phone (Samsung A5) but what functionality that gives I don't know. Although, thinking about it I did hit reply on the S3 and the home phone rang, which I didn't answer, so who knows.
[Samsung Gear S3] jestexman:
Gotcha.. still sounds like you could have took the call.. maybe.. Thanks.
[Samsung Gear S3] Half Colin:
Yep, the weird thing is though when I'm at home and out of bluetooth range the S3 goes into WiFi standalone mode although both phone and S3 are on the same WiFi network. Yet, yesterday the S3 was showing connected which was why I was convinced the phone must be near.
[Samsung Gear S3] jestexman:
So i just tested and i walked across the office and my watch says connected remotely. I called my cell and my S3 did not ring.. it did tell me i had a missed call tho and i got an email while i was over there..
[Samsung Gear S3] Half Colin:
Did you have a reply option to the message because I did? When I tapped reply it said 'connect remotely' to which I said yes.
[Samsung Gear S3] jestexman:
For the missed call? or the email? Not sure about email but the missed call notification i tap on it and it pops up saying connect to phone via Bluetooth ? i get a x on the left and a check on the right.. if i hit x nothing happens and if i hit the check it will try to find my phones BT.. Just tested an email.. all i have when i scroll all the way down is delete but i can hit the dots on the right and i have a reply option.. i was able to send a quick reply to myself.. this is all while my phone says connected remotely..
[Samsung Gear S3] SFVDan:
I was just checking the connection dialogue and it says "... remotely via mobile data

or Wi-Fi.

"

Dunno how I missed the Wi-Fi part. :confused:
[Samsung Gear S3] Half Colin:
The missed call. All my calls and taps happened over a matter of seconds whilst I was more concerned with finding my mobile than what the S3 was actually doing. The fact that it was doing anything in relation to a call to my mobile was pointing me towards the phone being close. So it seems from your testing, and nothing I experienced really contradicts that, that when you're connected by WiFi you do only get notification of a call. I did tap reply to the missed call and the house phone rang but I can't say for sure that the call was from the S3 because I never answered it and didn't check the S3 again because I was leaving to return to my daughters house.
[Samsung Gear S3] warpgatex:
By the way guys, I had to factory reset my S3 and remote connectivity worked again. I now learned to backup my S3 if this happens again. I rely mostly in remote connectivity thats why this is a big deal for me.

Mind you that I confirmed that I'm connected to WIFI on my phone and I can browse on it too. It just doesn't connect the phone.

I just hope there is a way to force remote connectivity in the settings so I know what going on!
[Samsung Gear S3] SFVDan:
I entered feedback into the Samsung support website about this particular problem. I explained that the remote connection between the S3 and my phone is intermittent. I was very dismayed to get a stock, canned answer back about rebooting my router. This is the second time that I've attempted to address this, once through the chat client and once through email. I'm very disappointed with Samsung's support considering the size of their company. Alas, guidance on how to correct this problem does not appear to be forthcoming.
[Samsung Gear S3] afblangley:
Remote connection can be a little flaky, but it's my primary means of connecting to my phone. I have a Frontier LTE, my phone stays at home, connected to WiFi. Here's what I've found works best for me. Transitions are the weak link, I want to minimize the amount of switching the watch has to do, so I don't use auto. I keep cellular always on. I keep WiFi off. BT off. Therefore, the watch should use it's cellular radio to communicate with my phone which is connected to WiFi. The watch displays "remotely connected AT&T". If it loses this connection it will display "standalone mode". If this happens at home, I'll turn on BT, establish a connection, then turn it off. After a minute or two, it reestablishes RC. If it drops while I'm away, I reboot the watch and that sometimes reestablishes RC.

If RC is important, a modified version of this may work for those with a BT only S3. When away from home, use BT and keep WiFi off. When at home (where the phone and watch are likely to be separated) turn WiFi on and keep BT off. When auto is used, the watch is switching back and forth between modes as conditions change. Making it manual requires conscious effort, but less switching means fewer dropped connections.
[Samsung Gear S3] Manijak84:
Damn, this option is not available on the Gear App for iOS :(
[Samsung Gear S3] veletron:
Mine worked initially, but no remote connection working for well over a month now. I aint gonna keep resetting the thing to work around samsungs buggy platform. Wifi on watch does work - eg the youtube app works when the phone is turned off.
[Samsung Gear S3] Tel864:
On my Bluetooth model I can send texts with only wifi enabled, but if I go to phone all it will do is ask me if I want to turn on BT.
[Samsung Gear S3] arf8:
this is how it is supposed to operate on the standalone model. Samsung made the claim there will be a "call app" to allow phone over wifi but it still has not been released.
[Samsung Gear S3] Dnmkhmd:
I would also like to add up, just to address the issue. Mine (gear s3 frontier) was working fine for couple of weeks, but then suddenly the remote connection mode stopped working. I have not reset the watch yet. But will post after I do it, to tell whether it worked or not.

Besides, about call answering over wi-fi. Probably the watch allows this kind of things for those with samsung smartphones. Samsung does not treat every phone user equally. Cause I have Sony Xperia z3 compact myself, and I don't have a "messages" app on my watch. But when I connect the watch to my wife's Galaxy A5 it appears.
[Samsung Gear S3] Dnmkhmd:
An update. I have reset my watch and the remote connection works again. Don't know how long it will last until another breakdown, but I have to say that reset as a solution is very inconvenient. I lost all my S-health stat data on the watch (although it is backed on my phone).
[Samsung Gear S3] arf8:
I can tell you I have a Samsung phone and it does not take calls over Wifi, again samsung stated there is a "calling app" which they have not released that would potentially provide this feature in the future. However as of date the app is not released and the standalone version does not accept calls over Wifi.
[Samsung Gear S3] aapanju:
You must have the LTE Gear S3?
[Samsung Gear S3] rogerperk:
I have an LTE S3 and it switches between Remote Connection and Standalone apparently at random. EG: on Remote Connect all day around home. Took a drive to another city and when I got back it showed Stand Alone. Works for calls and stuff but... weird. Anyone know how it's 'supposed' to work? Have TMobile DIGITS.
[Samsung Gear S3] cguima:
Firewall block

I'm experimenting the same issue with my Gear Sport.

There is an issue with Firewall. Remote connection works fine if I disable the modem provider's Firewall. I use a router to provide WiFi at home and it's firewall is enabled without any problem. The modem's firewall yet blocks the connection. Some door(s) must be released for the remote connection to work. Samsung must tell us wich one(s).
