EDIT: My USB C cable wasn't in properly, caused me a bunch of issues - if you're ever struggling to flash in Odin then always check your cable first or you'll spend 8 hours troubleshooting and getting pissed off like I did.

Hi all.

I tried to flash my A70 with Corvus OS GSI type A/B yesterday evening (I understand that this was a mistake) and since then I have had a few errors.

I originally got the message "An Error Has Occurred While Updating The Device Software" in the download screen. That then went away and I was able to get into TWRP. I tried to restore one of my backups which used to work but instead caused a bootloop in which I can't access TWRP and have tried flashing latest firmware through odin multiple times just to be met with <SEE SCREENSHOT: ODIN FAILURE> over and over again. I also tried using Smart Switch Emergency recovery but the device doesn't get picked up when in download mode on the Smart Switch app.

Would really appreciate some help. Thanks all

When I change that 2g to 4g, first one becomes 2g.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tabatharose:
Hi all,

my first post! I stupidly messed around with my recently obtained GT-s5830 (The shop says its and 830i but the device says it's an 830 - shoulda checked the bloody firmware!)

Stupidly I didn't follow good procedure even though I know better and just tried updating from .zip via SD with a new OS but can't remember which atm as the only copy is on the SD and I can't access that right now. This install caused a bootloop and i then tried to install cwm. But alas now my phone boots to black, my bootloader is blue screening and I can only get to the download screen. But Windows can't start the device. I had a BOS error before and now after lots of trying different things its saying "A device which does not exist was specified." in Device Manager.

Honestly I didn't think lots about it cause it's a cheapy phone and I thought I'd just flash it back to the original firmware (which I now can't source online) and it'd be fine, done this before right? But thinking about it, i couldn't see the device in Windows 10 before i flashed it, so I'm wondering if the USB connection is buggered anyway, and now I can't get to the SD or boot screen to use the SD. I can't remember if I definitely switched USB debugging back on before I flashed last.

I know I've been an idiot but can someone help please? I really want to try the new OSs for teh device and see if I can get a faster, lightweight device. But I just can't get windows 10 to see it!!! I've tried changing the power settings, manually updating the drivers with nearly any driver I can find, deleting upper and lower filters in regedit, creating an ignore on the bos descriptor in Regedit (not sure if it's done correctly though)....Please help!

Device: 360 N6 Lite by QIKU, Snapdragon 630

Device is running stock ROM based on android 8.1,

Some good man tried to help me and created some TWRP version for me but when I flashed it my phone could not start: instead of booting it falls to fastboot mode.

Addtional info about my device which might be useful for knowledgeable person:

1. fastboot has limited functionality: it cannot flash any partiton, therefore the only way I can flash anything is by QFIL

2. I can install Magisk and patch stock boot.img, but when I flash patched boot phone goes to bootloop.

3. bootloader is unlocked:

(bootloader) unlocked:yes

(bootloader) off-mode-charge:0

I wish somebody would take an interest in this difficult case and give it a try...

As an alternative, I could try to follow instructions if this would be more practical to buld TWRP.

Here's the file TWRP for your device: 360_N6Lite_TWRP3.2.1_Recovery_9008.zip

The file is from 4pda forum with structions by bullik01: Acquiring TWRP
[General Questions and Answers] vp1117:
Thank you for taking your time and trying to help me!

I'm aware of this TWRP version. I know it was constructed somewhere in China and that bullik01 guy just copied it to 4pda forum.

My trouble is: 360_N6Lite_TWRP3.2.1_Recovery_9008.zip works only if phone runs android 7.1.2. If I try to install it with stock Oreo ROM, it crashes my phone as can be seen on attached pic. Error message translation into English:

Detected that the phone has been swiped into the non-officially certified ROM package! The phone will turn off in 5 seconds!

From this point of view, TWRP versions I referred to in my first message seem to me more ... advanced, I would say, as they do not crash my phone but just make it boot to fastboot mode.
[General Questions and Answers] lopestom:
Good to know. You can see other TWRP for same chipset and Oreo? If yes, attach your stock recovery.img; boot.img and TWRP file for Snap 630 - Oreo 8.1.
[General Questions and Answers] vp1117:
"You can see other TWRP for same chipset and Oreo?" - not sure what you mean. I never tried to flash TWRP built for any other devices. The only TWRP I tried - I posted links to them in my fist message and attached these files here. They are NOT working TWRPs. They were build locally by some guy who tried to help me out. Files names are 'ptwrp3.2.1-0.img' and 'ptwrp3.2.3-0.img', attached. They cause my device to boot into fastboot mode.

Also attached are my stock Oreo boot & recovery images.

I can provide you with any other file(s)/info if necessary.

Thank you!
[General Questions and Answers] lopestom:
I know about the TWRP for D1 cannot flash in D2! Each device so each TWRP!!

I can compile TWRP but unfortunately my time is not good and I haven't A8.1 Source Code Team Win in my PC Linux now. That's need time and much size in the PC.

May be I can help PORTing. Wait patiently the file.
[General Questions and Answers] vp1117:
Thank you you are still with me!

Sure, if you need time then I'll wait. Just... minor concern from my side is as following: it appears that vendor (Qiku) have acivated DM-Verity in Oreo stock ROM for my device. My knowledge of android is almost zero but as far as I learnt, having DM-Verity activated would render all efforts of builing custom recovery useless since ABOOT will always prevent custom partition from booting... Am I not right?
[General Questions and Answers] vp1117:
Here is some info regarding my phone: https://github.com/search?q=qk1713

I'm not sure how valuable it is. I'm not even sure this info in trustworthy as I'm a complete newbie and cannot estimate value of anything related to linux/android world. Judging by the dates, the info might be related to android 7.1, not 8.1...

Also, I have PC with linux mint at my disposal and if I could obtain more detailed info about my phone using linux tools - I'll be more than happy to do so.

Yes and not. We need look about files is from device/stock ROM. But if you really want know how compile TWRP read this about tools/instalation/commands:

Well guy, my time realy is not good now. But with minimal files I make 3 files for test. The problem maybe is DM_VERIFY from boot.img in your device. You can desactivate that with magisk?! You need know how install file.img in the recovery partition or test with: fastboot boot recovery.img

If you need something help about compile TWRP so contact me in my profile github.
[General Questions and Answers] vp1117:
Hi lopestom, I hope everything is OK with you.

THANK you for finding the time to build recoveries!

I don't use fastboot for flashing. Fastboot which is implemented in my phone prohibits flash command. Instead, I use QFIL, it works fine.

All 3 of recoveries you've buit led to same result: phone falls to fastboot mode.

Well, at least you somehow managed build recoveries which do not lead to red state!!

If, along with with your recovery I flash boot.img patched by Magisk, result is the same: phone boots into fastboot.
[General Questions and Answers] vp1117:
I wish I could build recoveries myself, but I somehow cannot get myself understand Linux. Everything is so... difficult and so... non-human in Linux. I only use Linux to edit system.img for my other phone. So, my knowledge is limited to how run caja as administrator and how to mount system.img for editing.
[General Questions and Answers] lopestom:
You read the links guide that I out before?

That's simple in first moment because only install tools to compile need. So you need github profile; sudo install xxxxx; repo; etc.....

The second is about device tree. But you have that so maybe good maybe not. Is need tests.

If not good you can search other same device tree to your Soc/Chipset/CPU in the github and modify informations from your device.

You can write me in my profile github and if I can so help more.
[General Questions and Answers] vp1117:
Hi lopestom, thank you for your explanations. From these explanations I understand the general idea. And, who knows, probably I'll give it a try some day. Another newbie will be trying to build a TWRP... :)

However, discussing my bad phone on different forums, I'm gradually coming to conclusion that probably my phone was built in such a way so any custom recoveries will always be rejected. There is a chance that any modified partition on my device needs to be signed by vendor's key.

So, it might be that those recoveries you kindly built for me few days ago are already good recoveries but we'll never know that because my phone just rejected them as not signed by this nasty QIKU vendor.

The task of fighting with boot/recovery signature is far above my knowledge. Most probably, I'll be defeated by it and will have to give up. As such, it will put an end to my endeavours in regards of TWRP...

I appreciate your help very much. I don't even know what makes you to spend your time helping newbies like me. THANK you!
[General Questions and Answers] vp1117:
Hello lopestom!

Just wanted to share with you some great news about those TWRP versions you so kindly build for my almost sunset phone.

They do work, all 3 of them!!

Somehow I got AVB disabled, not sure exactly what it was, so that now it is possible to avoid Red State / fastboot when flashing modified recovery.

So far I can see only one problem about these TWRPs: they fail to mount Vendor partition. But I do not want you to spend any of your time looking at this issue. I have now basic functionality with your TWRPs which I badly needed. I'm 100% happy with TWRPs.

Just to repeat: BIG thank you for your kind support!

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] himseslf:
Hi. I need some information and help. I'm a complete newbie to any of this android hacking.

I've had a Samsung S4 since 2013, came with Jelly Bean. Apps are no longer supported, and most new ones aren't allowed, but my S4 works too great to toss! -I took the plunge and recently updated to official KitKat... A downgrade that doesn't allow apps to write to SD cards, gps is dodgy now... -I stopped there, since I've seen too many horror stories from 5.0 updates, -so I know I've got to look elsewhere, and this forum seems the best place for this! -I'm hoping mine is one of the "supported S4's" here!

-Is my Samsung one of the "Galaxy S4 LTE-A" phones that you have a lot of potential updates for??

Mine is an Aussie phone currently with a 64mb SD card, and via the Droid Info App, here's what I know about it:

Model: GT-I9506 (ks01ltexx)

Manufacturer: samsung

Baseband Version: I9506XXUCNJ1

RIL Version: Samsung RIL v3.0

Build Number: KOT49H.I9506XXUCNJ2

Build Fingerprint: samsung/ks01ltexx/ks01lte:4.4.2/KOT49H/I9506XXUCNJ2:user/release-keys

Bootloader: I9506XXUCNJ2

Java VM: Dalvik 1.6.0

OS Version: Kitkat (4.4.2)

SDK: 19

CPU Architecture: ARMv7 Processor rev 0 (v7l)

Board: MSM8974

Chipset: Qualcomm MSM 8974 (Flattened Device Tree)

Cores: 4

Clock Speed: 1190 MHz - 2265 MHz

Instruction Sets: armeabi-v7a, armeabi

CPU Features: swp half thumb fastmult vfp edsp neon vfpv3 tls vfpv4 idiva idivt

CPU Governor: interactive

Kernel Version: 3.4.0-2587343

Kernel Architecture: armv7l

1) If this fits in with the 9506 models that are on this system, then which option is the best-working? -Least experimental? Please voice your opinions and experience!

-I'm hoping to get to at least OS 8 or 9 so that I can finally use the current covid government tracking apps (no joke!), and to keep my S4 viable for longer still, and, maybe stuff all working, battery holding, gps, phone, wifi, nfc... maybe access to the sd card by apps ;-) .

I notice there seem to be many routes like LineageOS, HavocOS, CrDroid... Official vs unofficial. For a newbie who's only messed around w APK's, I definitely need some advice

2) And lastly, how much space for these (Windows 10) programs and the chunks of "ROM's" that are needed? -Got to make sure I have plenty of room on my trusty laptop, I think!

3) For an expert, how long to complete all of the run(s)?

Thanks!!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ruadus:
Hi,

I tell you what I use and what is trending right now, than you need to do some digging to know how to do it.

You need first a custom recovery for your phone. This one will work for you, I have the same:

TWRP 3.1

Then a custom Rom, you can use this one, it's the most updated:

LineageOS 18.1

Try to see look for how to flash a Recovery (TWRP), then once that done, the other part is easy.

Good Luck.

Hello,

You can find everything you need in my S4 Unified Collection & Guides.

Reading and trying to digest this stuff now.

-A quick question: by the wording, I gather that one would use TWRP to back-up the current OS and all that is on your phone (so, if necessary, the current one can come back on)?

-One more: I gather from ruadus, that my phone is one of those 9506 TLE-A phones that these posts all talk about, so that I can go forward?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Retrial:
- Yes, you can use TWRP to Backup and Restore current OS and all that's inside the phone. (move the backup to an SDCard or to external storage)

- Yes, you can go forward. You can find the latest version of everything you need in my Collection & Guides I linked above.

Thanks!

I've looked at your Collection & Guides page, and I can find downloads for "ks01lte" (like https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1899786940962577903).

Mine says it's a "ks01ltexx".

-I can't find any info online as to thee difference between ks01ltexx and ks01lte, so...

1) -Will the ks01lte-labelled files (programs) of yours also work for the "xx" that I have?

2) Lastly, I now have access to an old windows 7 32-bit laptop w more diskspace (but only 1gb of ram) that I could try to use as the mainframe for Odin, etc. -This older machine will work OK for that??

Thanks again for your taking the time to help!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ruadus:
Hi,

I believe ks01lte will work. is it the model I9506? if it is so it will work.

I don't see why it won't work with your Win7, maybe it will be slow, just stop any unnecessary program running to avoid crashing your machine.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Retrial:
As ruadus said, these files will work fine for your variant.

Odin is portable and small program, no need installation or any special hardware to work. You will be fine.

Just follow the steps on my guides, if u have any other question don't hesitate to ask 🤓
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] himseslf:
Ok, so I'll be starting pretty soon.Am using a WIN 7 machine that I have kicking around,because it has a lot of empty disk, so that I can store the back-up copy of my Samsung S4 I9506 ks01ltexx phone.

-I've got ODIN on my PC and it seems to come up fine. Got the combo bootloader+modem tar file and the TRWP tar file also downloaded... -Haven't yet dragged down the updating OS file yet.

-I've downloaded the Samsung USB driver, but haven't installed it since the phone loads instantly on the laptop w the current driver...

So,if I'm correct, my first step should be to get TWRP onto my PC,and (via ODIN) then onto the S4, and then use TRWP to back it all up to my PC?

-Or should I follow the order of the steps in the guide and do the Bootloader and Modem "flash" first and then follow w TRWP??

Thanks!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Retrial:
You can just take backup of ur personal files (if you have any) from your device to your PC. No need TWRP for that.

Doesn't matter if you will flash first or later Bootloader & Modem. Just follow the steps in the guide if you are unsure for something.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] himseslf:
Thanks (have already backed up my 20GB of pictures and SMS, etc.), but I just want to make sure I can back up the current "working" OS, and be able to put it all back the way it was, if something just doesn't work at the moment after my upgrade attempts. I understand that I'd need TWRP for that, correct? -Which can still be done in the order your guide suggests?

Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Retrial:
Oh yeah, if you want to backup your OS with data and all these, use TWRP and put the backup into an external storage like sd card or into your pc. If u ever want to restore just go to TWRP, chose Restore and select the backup file.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] himseslf:
Hi,

Thanks again !

Just to get a bit more info: I'll necessarily have to backup my S4 to my laptop's disk (via TWRP). -Apparently the usual is to an SD, but won't have that.

I've googled,and have seen that (at least a couple years ago), I'd need to run something called ADB (Android Debug Bridge) on my PC and droid to allow for that. -And with that and TWRP, I can do a safety backup of the current OS, etc. directly to my PC (and if necessary, put that older OS back on my S4 w ADB).

An example web blog is: https://nerdschalk.com/twrp-backup-pc-adb/

-I didn't see mention of ADB usage in here; is it still necessary as an "add-on", or is it already taken care of in the newer versions of TWRP, Odin, etc?

Thanks!!
