Long story short I started off on EK02 and used stfubs methord to root el29. Till this fay I haven't tried ics but I noticed that when I pair my jambox it automatilly connects to the phone as if it's on a call and doesn't stream audio. The only way to get it to work is to make a phone call or just uncheck phone audio under bt settings and just leave media checked. I used thr ek02 no date tar on odin and it unrooted my phone w/o a problem but even on stock el29 the problem remains. I'm on blazer 4.1 and I ttied everything to my knowledge and I still have to use that work around. I also once tried to edit airplane mode to leave bt on but that didn't work and that was a long time ago. Anyway, can anyone please tell me how to reset my phone completely ? Thanks guys
Oh I also tried this “rm -rf /data/misc/bluetoothd/*” but nothing

No problem. Have you tried using sfhubs one click el29 restore? If not give that a try, that's how I go completely back to stock. If you also want to unroot, use sfhubs auto root package. There's an option to unroot in that. All of that can be found with a search. Hope this helps! If u have any questions, feel free to ask!

Actually I use the original ek02 tar and even then the problems persist. All I want it to reset everything meaning all the hardware drivers

Okay. I'm real sorry but I dont know how to reset the phone further than that, i'd be surprised if there were. If you dont find how to reset it the way you want, i'd recomend getting it replaced, especially if you have tep.

After using the one click did you do a factory reset? That's about the only thing left to do if you're back to stock. settings/privacy/factory reset
All the system software is reset using that OneClick ODIN pointed to above.
The only other things that might affect your system which you could reset are your Android user data (user installed apps, contacts, calendar, etc.) and NVRAM.
If you want to reset Android user data, do a menu->settings->privacy->factory reset
If you want to reset both Android user data and NVRAM do ##786# reset from the dialer (you'll need your MSL, type getprop ril.MSL in an adb shell)
If you want to reset just the NVRAM do ##72786# reset in dialier, need MSL as above.
These won't reset your /sdcard, but your /sdcard shouldn't be causing issues in this regard. You can just remove the files by hand in the /sdcard if you want to clean that out also.

Im flashing an epic (root, rom, and to cricket from sprint) for a friend of mine and talk work fine but internet is not functioning dispite the 3g symbol being present. when i enter and edit the values (username, ha, etc.) In the ##3282# menu it doesnt reset the phone when through and what ever i changed reverts back to the previous value. I.e., the username remains (customername)@sprint.com. any one have a clue of how to either fix this issue or another way to change the values? Ive tried everything i can think of to no avail. Qpst, cdma workshop, and even tried the multiboot fc09 from the sd. Ive serched this forumas well as several others and cant see3m to find any applicable info.

you need to go back to an older stock rom/modem/kernel combination.. then ##72786# or a ##786# before you start.
the first one wont mess with any "repairs" you may have made previously. but will wipe data settings to factory.
then you should be able to edit those settings at will, and I suggest QPST.

And my advice would be to use stock EC05 (Rom AND modem) or prior. Never had much luck with this sort of project on anything after EC05. Once you're all working, then flash whatever you like. Will need to fix MMS again after flashing a rom.
Sorry if it's a repost but I am trying to upgrade from T999UVLH3 to T999UVDLI3 but it fails as I have to go back to stock. What is the recommended way to downgrade to ICS from JB without wiping everything on my phone? or is there none? From what my search has resulted till now I will have to wipe everything, but i thought ill just confirm.
If i have to wipe everything then can i just use kies to do factory restore? I am using Mybackup to back everything up.
You really should be wiping everything every time you flash something.....

You could try just wiping the system.
If it doesn't work, then you will need a complete wipe. Question - did you have any complete nandroid backups

I used Mybackup to do a back. Is it good enuf?
Also i just read that I can't do a factory reset. I will have to download the stock rom and ODIN flash it. I am currently downloading T999UVALH2_T999TMBALH2_TMB.zip. Is this a correct stock rom?

Don't want to sound rude in anyway but you really need to just put your phone down and do some reading. Or you are going to end up with a really exspensive paper weight. If you have not even heard of odin you should not be messing wihmth any modems or radios because the wrong modem will brick the **** out of that shiny new SIII. Like I said no disrespect and we were all new at this at one point. But just take some time and do some reading. Google can be your best friend and the more you learn the more you will end up getting out of your device

I flashed DLI3 right on top of LH3 using mobile Odin without wiping anything except Dalvik.
android.process.media started crashing after the reboot, but clearing cache and data for media storage took care of that.

I did that too but when it was crashing this idea didnt occur to me. So i flashed stock on top of it. Now its stuck on "FIRMWARE UPGRADE ENCOUNTERED AN ISSUE", kinda bricked. What do i do?
Try to boot back into download mode and odin back to stock.
There really is a reason these updates have to be applied a certain way. Sorry you had to find out one of them. Shortcuts CAN brick your device!

Look for "Media Storage" in the Applications manager list within System Settings. It will be under the "ALL" tab. Force Stop it then clear data and cache. If that doesn't fix it, disable it completely. You can tell that everything's been fixed if you open your Play Store without triggering a crash. Once it's fixed, you'll need to re-enable media storage again, and reboot.

Hello.
I want to restore my friends galaxy s2 (t989), but no matter what I do it will not restore. I tried odin and I tried flashing a different rom through cwm recovery, but everytime i boot it up after restoring it stays the same way. Meaning that all of the app, settings, photos, etc remain on the phone. As if I didnt even try to restore it. I am guessing it is a virus but I dont know how to remove it Another hint that it is a virus, every time i remove or install a new app from the play store, when I reboot the changes are un-done, meaning that the apps that I removed come back, and the apps that I installed are gone. It is almost as if it is stuck on a state and keeps reverting to it after every reboot. Anybody have any suggestions? Thanks
Try doing a factory reset in the phone settings then go into recovery and wipe as if u are about to flash another ROM. Manually put the phone into download mode and try to restore from there

In recovery go to mount and storage section. Then format data,system, and cache. Then factory data reset. This will fix it. The same way you format a sd card and it wipes it clean thats what happens when you format data,system, and cache.

Thank you guys for answering, I tried both methods but neither worked. After some more research I found out what is causing this to happen. Apparently the internal memory of the phone is stuck as read only, I don't know how he did that. While I am searching for a way to make is read and write, I came across this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2025475 but it is for the skyrocket and there was no solution. However, I also came across this http://androidforums.com/incredible-support-troubleshooting/347685-internal-phone-storage-becomes-read-only.html for the HTC Incredible, but to be honest I have no idea what he did and whether or not it will work on this phone. Do you guys have any idea how make the internal memory of his phone read and write instead of read only? Any help is appreciated thank you.

Flash new rom then go back into recovery and format everything and reset. some recoveries have mount system options so maybe find another one. Something is definitely weird going on. Root explorer, Root toolbox,and other apps have option to mount system as rw as well like biglil said

Im bad at explaining stuff so let me try explaining it a different way.
Like I said, I want to change the rom on my friends phone. I have a fair amount of experience in doing this since I also have an s2 running jedi knight 6. As usual, I would reboot into recovery, wipe system/factory reset, wipe cache/dalvik then install rom. This is where it gets weird, after I boot up the phone, it goes back to the way it was, as if I did not wipe anything. I even tried flashing a completely different rom and I even tried restoring it back to stock rom through ODIN nothing happens. Also, the mount toggle in root explorer is only for the root system, not the internel memory of the phone. Thanks for the help though.
Ok use titanium backup. Two options guaranteed to work. Find the wipe all system and data option use that. If that doesn't work find unintegrate system dalvik option and use that. One these should definitely work.

Nothing? Damn. okay. lol
There's a way, I'm just not sure how at the moment. I know I've seen threads about how to use adb to do this both in this forum and i believe the software and hacking forum.
try to search using some of those terms. If you can't find it, ill try to help more later tonight.

Do an Odin restore.

Good idea, if Odin wiped data.
ADB would be the way to go, as suggested.
Wipe with ADB:
adb shell
su
format SYSTEM
format DATA
format CACHE
Then reflash with ODIN
Oh yeah, that sucks. I had a Sprint GS2 'Epic Touch 4G' about 5 months ago, they have the option for data and no data their Odins.
I apologize if this is covered elsewhere, I did not come across the question or answer in my search.
I have a Rogers Note II (GT-N7105/SGH-I317M).
It is running stock touch whiz 4.1.2. I had been running custom roms, but after their various issues, I am going with stock samsung at the moment.
I have TWRP installed as the custom recovery, and I used it to restore my backup I took right after rooting.
Not having any issues, but I am simply wanting to know if I can go into Settings >> Backup and Reset and the perform a factory reset of the phone to erase all apps and data.
I am not trying to unroot the phone or anything like that. This phone is a work phone and I am going to be turning it in for the Note 3 next week. I would like to erase my content before doing so, again, not trying to unroot it (I have the tools such as Triangle away, stock firmware and Odin) just want to do a wipe and reset it for the next person who may use it.
So again, the question. If I factory reset via settings will there be any issues or will it simply go back to a rooted blank rom with no apps data?
Or will I end up with a mess?
Thanks for the help!
Factory reset will only wipe your personal data that you entered nothing will affect system or any modifications on it you will see no mess just a clean phone

So I essentially will have a rooted phone with a romantic that is set back to stock? Which is exactly what I am trying to achieve.
The fact that I have twrp installed makes no difference?
Exactly it will not affect system you will have clean stock rooted with twrp installed
