my expérience with this rom on an s3 neo, Phone is very laggy, apps that require more ram have a very hard time running (instagram, YouTube, chrome), videos are always behind audio especially on shorts and stories and batterie life sucks
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] shahab_m4:
I'm using the same version but the bluetooth still doesn't work.

Galaxy S3 Neo is dual SIM card.

TWRP version : twrp-3.7.0_9-1-s3ve3g

flash lastest official greece rom then flash this rom
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] shahab_m4:
I couldn't find the official Greek firmware for the I9300I.

Is it possible to flash official Greek I9301I firmware on I9300I?!

Does the device not break?

Thank you for your response.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Cucciolo Di Informatico:
Same problem on my device, I have tried months ago, now I'm trying again with the latest build but still not working, instead Android 10 works fine. Do you have solved? I have the latest TWRP, formatted anything and trying to install only the lineage package...
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Gboard007:
If your device on Android 11 or higher ROM gets bootloop on the setup wizard,

just flash that ROM via Odin v3.09

and see that boot-logo changed from "Galaxy S III" to "Galaxy S III Neo" (your bootloader is updated).

Then you can correctly flash your ROM and use it normally without any bootloops and freezes while system is booting up.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] shahab_m4:
In the latest versions that have been released, when I install Gapps, a bootloop occurs at the beginning of the system startup.

TWRP version: 3.7.0_9-1

Gapps version: MindTheGapps-11.0.0-arm

Phone model: s3ve3gds

I tested the Pico version of Open Gapps and it bootloops
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] shahab_m4:
I have exactly the same problem, after installing and booting the system in the Setup Wizard, the device bootloops.

My device model number is I9300I and this firmware is for model number I9301I.

Will there be any problem if I install this firmware on I9300I?

Or will there be a problem if I install the Greek firmware for I9301I on I9300I?
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] prototype74:
If you flash I9301I on I9300I it will fail and if it passes (somehow) anyway then your I9300I will hardbrick, so better you don't flash Firmwares meant for a different device variant.

-----

This note is now very important to everyone: if your S3 Duos/Neo reboots at the Setup Wizard then it means the RIL system triggered a fatal exception which causes the ROM to reboot.

The root cause of this is your outdated baseband/modem

!

Another sign you're using an old baseband/modem is if you have no signal at all while using the ROM. Please always flash the latest available stock firmware for your device variant first before you decide to flash modern custom ROMs for your S3 Duos/Neo.

How do I know if my baseband/modem is outdated?​

The easiest way to figure it out is to get my NeoInfo App. Right after you open the app, it will display your current bootloader and baseband/modem release version. If it's printed in red (e.g. I9301IXXUANE3) then it's outdated and you have to upgrade first.

or

Check if the last third character in your baseband version has the letter N (e.g. I9301IXXUANE3). If that's the case then you have to upgrade first.

Which Firmware version is the latest for my device variant?​

For GT-I9300I (region depended):​

International (s3ve3gds):

Kazakhstan/Russia/Ukraine -> I9300IXWSBQB1

Hong Kong -> I9300IZHSBQB1

Latin and South America -> I9300IUBSBQA1

Middle East (including Afghanistan and Pakistan) and North Africa -> I9300IXXSBPF1

South West Asia (s3ve3gdd):

Bangladesh/India/Sri Lanka -> I9300IDDUBQE2

✅ If you own the international s3ve3gds variant then you can flash firmwares from any other region as long as it is for your s3ve3gds too

❌Caution: do not flash s3ve3gdd firmwares on s3ve3gds (or vice versa) devices. Flashing s3ve3gdd firmwares on s3ve3gds (or vice versa) will lead to a hardbrick due to different bootloader stucture beetween these two variants. So be aware of it.

For GT-I9301I:​

If you own this variant then you need to check first which camera sensor you have. You can get this information from my NeoInfo App too.

Samsung sensor -> I9301IXCUARA1

Sony sensor:

Europe -> I9301IXXUAQL1

Asia and North Africa -> I9301IXXUAPG3

Russia -> I9301IXWSAQD1

✅ You can flash a firmware from any region

⚠️ If you flash a firmware that's meant for a different camera sensor then your camera will not work untill you flash a firmware or a custom ROM that supports your camera sensor

For GT-I9301Q:​

The latest firmware version is I9301QXXUAPJ2

How can I get the latest firmware for my device variant?​

You can get them from any website that offers samsung firmares for S3 Duos/Neo. I'd recommend samfw.com. If you want to download firmware directly from Samsung servers you may like SamFirm Reborn (for Windows).

Happy flashing!
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] shahab_m4:
Thanks for the detailed explanation.

I am flashing custom rom on build number I9300IXXSBPF1.

The official ROM region that I flash the custom ROM on is for UAE.

I checked and saw that the release date of the official ROMs of the UAE region is no different from that of Afghanistan, Pakistan, and North Africa, and all were released on the same day.

Following all the tips you said, it still bootloops in the Setup Wizard.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] M-Y-Y:
It is great rom but Please Add overclock to gpu to 550mhz in the next update
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] prototype74:
Perhaps your modem did not update after you flashed I9300IXXSBPF1. Some Users have had similar issues like this where they booted up with the new stock firmware but the modem was not updated. Apparently it helps to flash the stock firmware several times to update the modem.

If you flashed I9300IXXSBPF1 then your baseband should be I9300IXXUBPF2. If that's the case and you still face this reboot at setup wizard then feel free to ignore what I have mentioned before 🏃‍♂️
[General Questions and Answers] starbuey:
Hello people,

I bought a used TrekStor Surftab theatre L15 TFMTKAW01232 and the MT8163 in the hope that I can repair it.

The problem with the device is that it is not possible to boot and after pressing the Volume + and On button for some time, I get into the boot menu. Here I have the choice of recovery, fastboot, norma bootl. No matter which selection I make, the tablet remains dark and nothing happens next.

I got myself a USB-A to USB-A cable and searched for the original Rom and found it. When trying to flash it with the SP_Flash_Tool I get the error "ERROR: S_BROM_CMD_JUMP_DA_FAIL".

What I notice is that the device seems to stay connected via USB only very briefly. I have already installed several drivers and in the tool it also shows me

the connected device "MediaTek USB Port_V1633 (COM4 on)".

Do you have any other idea how I could solve the problem?
[General Questions and Answers] zefme:
Hi,

could you help me please?

I have here same model as you mentioned for repair.

A reverse polarity power source was attached to it, which resulted in a burned chip.

That chip I am unable to identify because it was destroyed.

I am attaching a photo of the mainboard where I've marked the position of that chip.

Would it be possible for you to have a look at your board and take a picture of the chip for me?

I would really appreciate it!

Thank you!

Remove the program you added and just use wm5Storage that is part of the rom. It does exactly what you are after. ;)

I want to update to android 12 but hate to reinstall apps. But do t want to root permanently. So my plan is install magisk, make backup with titanium. Install 12, magisk restore and unnistal magisk.

Did anyone tried this? Does it pass safetynet after unninstalling magisk like without it?
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] zerschranzer1:
Hello.

After I received my new Poco f3, the first I've done was unlocking the bootloader. 7 days later, everything was done and I flashed lineageos.

>Fastboot boot twrp.img>advanced>flash current twrp.

After that I've wiped and format data. Then I flashed lineageos. After that I've tried to flash gapps, but that results in "error 70 Not enough space. I've tried pico and nano package. The question is now, how am I able resize the system partition ? I googled to find solutions but what I've found, just scared the sh*it out of me. Some people experimented with gparted and hardbricked their device, because they destroyed their bootloader.

In twrp>wipe>advanced wipe there is no system partition shown. Dunno why.

I didn't dare to >Fastboot erase system (Or Fastboot format system) before I flash los. Is this safe and could be a possible solution? I also don't understand how this "a/b" partitions Work. My old Poco f1 didn't had those.

would be really grateful for help.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] user0u:
Yeah this phone is really tricky to mod. I rooted mine and for some reason still didn't have write permissions on root folders.

Tried to delete lockscreen keys just for testing purposes and it messed up the phone. After that even twrp restore couldn't fix it. So I flashed the stock firmware via mi flash tool and locked the bootloader for good.

I find that what you get from rooting this phone is just not worth the risk with its tendency to mess things up really bad at the slightest mistakes, especially because the EDL is locked.

It used to be so simple with older phones. But unfortunately google is trying their best to make phones impossible to modify. And they're getting pretty close now.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] zerschranzer1:
I had the same problem. I've read that just flashing magisk.apk in twrp isn't supported well anymore. You have to modify boot.img in magisk app, and then flash the modified boot.img with Fastboot. For me, that solves the problem (see Instructions. To extract the boot.img from rom.zip I used Payload dumper ).

Long story short, I still didn't managed to resize the system partition :(
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] zerschranzer1:
I got an other idea! Is it possible to "inject" gapps into the system.img before I flash it ?!
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Fandroid Tech:

[XPERIA X1 General] easycure1974:
Today I had to softreset my phone for the first time without doing it from Mobile Shell. The phone hanged for the first time - and I didn´t find the reset button :) You have to take of the battery cover to soft reset it - hadn´t thought of that before because I never had to do it :) Lucky you don´t have to do it very often :)
[XPERIA X1 General] Blowfish64:
Oh man, are you serious?! That might be a deal breaker for me. As often as you have to reset WM, I can't believe they were that dumb!
[XPERIA X1 General] easycure1974:
yes but the phone is so stable you don´t have to do it often :) I have to reset my Touch Pro much more often :)
[XPERIA X1 General] Blowfish64:
Given the instability of many 3rd party programs, it's not going to matter how stable Sony's OS build is, it's going to freeze up. I was trying to give Sony the benefit of the doubt on their hardware design seeing as how they're new to the WM world and all, but first they take off the side button, and now this. Just stupid.
[XPERIA X1 General] easycure1974:
I once did the misstake and bought a Samsung SGH-i780 - it could not even be hard reset :) Just inside WM with "Clear storage" - but not with any button combination. It took Samsung months to fix it for the english roms. But the Swedish rom is yet not updated and fixed - so if it hangs and only a hard reset helps you have to send it to their repairshop - thats stupid :)
[XPERIA X1 General] lildogg:
i know there is a soft reset program for windows mobile which you could use so that you wont have to remove the battery cover.
[XPERIA X1 General] easycure1974:
Yes as I wrote I normally use Mobile Shell for that, there are lot of applications for soft reset. But they are no help when the phone has hang and you can´t use them :)
[XPERIA X1 General] kosobryuh:
try long press turn on/off button

on HTC Pharos its working even if OS is freeze
[XPERIA X1 General] kchoop:
same on my kaiser
[XPERIA X1 General] JKingDev:
I guess the common image of any MS product is that you have to reset all the time. Its not really true. I rarely have to reset my kaiser. 90% of the time I reset, it is because some software or teak that I made needs a reset to apply itself. My phone rarely crashes. I guess YMMV.
[XPERIA X1 General] guap:
agree... 1 time in 2-3 weekx at maximum for my touchXL ;)
[XPERIA X1 General] Blowfish64:
It's more like 1-2 times a day on my Kaiser. That'd be annoying. But if holding hangup button really worked PERFECTLY even if the entire phone was frozen, I'd be ok with that. Anyone with the X1 want to check?
[XPERIA X1 General] Kloc:
My Wizard has never really locked up anytime I was just using it how its supposed to be used. Now when I go into things that arent preinstalled on the phone eg PocketSNES or FPSEce then it might freeze and since those are 3rd party programs you can't complain about them locking up.
[XPERIA X1 General] Blowfish64:
Uhm, bingo. 3rd party apps. Kind of one of those things that is attractive in WM versus the iPhone. You know what they are, right? I mean, it's great that the OS of the Xperia is stable, but since 3rd party apps aren't always stable, did Sony put some sort of guarantee in there that the phone would never lock up no matter what? No? Then why are you posting about how the lack of an external soft-reset button doesn't matter?
[XPERIA X1 General] pf:
I don't like the soft-reset hole under the battery-cover too. But does it matter? Would I not buy the phone in cause of this? No!

I have the same problem with my G900. Yes, I don't like it and there are moments, softreset by software does not work and the 5 second-hold of the power-off does not work too. But they are not often and mostly when playing with new installations of software. In the daily work there is no need to softreset by this and therefore I don't mind this problem, even I don't like it.
[XPERIA X1 General] Carlis:
Drill a hole in the back cover , then U can softreset it without remove it :rolleyes:

Its a good phone.. but when U try alot of soft its good to have Spb + installed to be able to start in safemode.

notice some system apps and tweaks did hang it after a rebot.. maybe its the screen size.

a fast remove of cover and soft reset it twice jumps the question about safe mode and then U can uninstal the bugger.

but .. its so much better then my Kaiser.

Love the steel look.

Feels so solid.

can live with the reset under the cover :)

Would LOVE some custome roms .. hehe anyone ???
[XPERIA X1 General] JKingDev:
I thought spb pp safe mode just disabled the spb extensions. Does it also disable other startup apps too?
[XPERIA X1 General] Carlis:
yes it start it clean. not just the Spb apps.
[XPERIA X1 General] Blowfish64:
Could anyone take a picture of the back of the phone with the cover off so I can see where exactly the reset button is located?

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IanCDx:
Hi folks,

Back again after a long absence... :)

I'm in UK, just bought this phone (from China)... looked good, even though old now and seems good so far.

But, some apps that I want to use won't run on 5.1... some that I would really like to have will run on 6, others may need 7

LG Bridge identifies the phone, recognises that there's a software update available, downloads it and starts the software install but the update gets to 9% then fails, with message "Phone cannot update"

I've enabled Developer options and USB debugging

Build number is LMY47D, Software version = H81510h, Security Software version = MDF V1.1 Release 5

Checking for 'Software Updates' through 'Update Center' on the phone returns the message "Your device is up to date"

From reading several threads here, it looks like there may be a couple of possibilities: the laptop I'm running LG Bridge on only has USB 3.0 ports - one of the threads said somewhere "USB 3.0 will not work". Is that true? Anyway, I'll try LG Bridge on another laptop with USB 2.0

If that doesn't work, I guess I have to use LGUP which will wipe all the data on the phone (so I'll backup first) - I think I can do this without having to root; I'll check whether I have to go through the OEM unlock process described here

That thread is from 2016, though, so if any of that is now out of date, I'd be grateful for any advice, links to most up to date info, etc.

I'd like to get to Android 6 with mimimal hassle / risk / wiping of data, then see if I really need 7

Many thanks, in anticipation,

Ian

Download LGup. Download the h815 20p KDZ and flash it by lgup.

You could download 20p from here for example:

Thanks steadfaster

Still a bit stuck though...

Definitely LGUP_Store_Frame_Ver_1_14_3.msi, and LGUP_Dev_Frame_Ver_1_15_0_6.msi

That last one didn't work as it required registration and login

h815_20p_ARBO_0314.kdz

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Stopped with Error:

Error Code = 0x2000,

TOT antirollback version is smaller than the device version

I've been reading various threads for several hours today, and trying various suggested solutions, including:

- adding a 'common' folder to LGUP in Program Files (x86) and copying LGUP_Common.dll there

- downloading something called Uppercut.exe which Norton prevented from running, identifying it as malware..??

- changing properties of the Port the phone is connected to

None of which have worked; I got the 0x2000 error on one attempt.

LGUP now doesn't see the phone 'properly'... comes up as 'Unknown model' and 'says' I have to connect a known model before it will do anything...

So, a few things to check:

Do I run LGUP in windows? (I think I read somewhere it's specifically designed to run on Windows)

Which version of LGUP should I install and use? [A known good link would be really helpful ;-)]

Do I connect the phone (USB / MTP) while it's running normally, or boot it into download mode first? Took me a while to even get there... and that also didn't work...

Many thanks for your time and expertise
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steadfasterX:
Yes the dll is needed to make lgup work. There are various threads here including proper instructions (iirc)
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IanCDx:
I've read several more threads here - after searching for everything on LGUP - and taken a few steps trying to get this to work... no joy so far:

- restored Windows 10 to state before I originally installed LGUP... to be certain I do it as described here, installing LGUP_8994_DLL_Ver_0_0_3_23 first then LGUP 1_14_3.msi

- downloaded and ran uppercut.exe with LGUP (I had to disable Norton autoprotect to do this as it (mistakenly..?) identifies uppercut.exe as a heuristic virus

Doing this means LGUP sees the G4 H815 correctly: it was seeing it as an unknown device before I took these steps

Ticked Refurbish in LGUP, but couldn't select the .kdz file... Refurbish was looking for a 'Tot' file

With the phone still connected (MTP and USB debugging enabled)

- selected 'Upgrade' in LGUP

- loaded the file 'h815_20p_ARB0_0314.kdz'

- failed at 9%, with 0x2000 error

Here's the screenshot: View attachment 5463963

Seems I might've run out of options here... wondering if I need to go down unlocking route... maybe try FWUL --> SALT --> next steps..?

I need to go back to your original SALT thread, steadfaster, to remind myself of the steps, but can I still install stock ROM (h815_20p_ARB0_0314.kdz) if I go this way..?

Or do I have to go with a custom ROM after unlocking..?
