Hello I tried to flash my radio following this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1825112. There were no errors or anything in cmw and after i rebooted my s3, i ended up with this. Anybody got this before or found a way to fix it?
Try redownloading, on wifi if possible, then reflash again. I think I saw someone else have that happen and it was a corrupted download.
Read thru the thread again if you want to double check, couldn't hurt!
Check the md5 sum first.

exactly this, re-download it and and flash again.
i did try to download it throught wifi and reflash it like it says in the thread but still no luck. I just read that someone tried to flash a wind mobile version and mine is mobilicity. Both are T999V version, i guess thats where the problem is, flashing a T999 radio for T999V. Does anyone know where I can find a mobilicity T999V stock radio or anyway i can get back my old radio. I did flash the second zip which supposebly makes a copy of your old radio before I flashed the radio. Does anyone know where this backup is located or where i can a mobilicity t999v radio?
Appears to me that he wrote the backup into the script that flashes the new one! Awesome!!!!
Check in /data/media
Looks like it may have saved your original as modem.backup when you flashed the new radio. If its there then flash the restore zip and hopefully you will be back to your original.
Even if its not there, flash the restore, always possible I read it wrong.

Oh and if it did save a copy of your original, you may want to save an extra copy and perhaps post it just in case. Someone else may need it in the future, you never know!

did you flash that radio as well? i check sdcard/data and all i see is com.keramidas.titanback up, no media folder. i checked sdcard/android/data and there bunch of com. folders no media and i checked sdcard/media and there is only audio and music folder
Check /data/media
Not /sdcard/data/media
Should be on data partition, not sdcard.
If the flash was successful, I believe it should be there.

If you are running pure stock, you may need a 3rd party file explorer like Root Explorer. Not totally sure but if all you see is extsdcard and sdcard this is possibly the case.

No worries. I added to my last post about that. Search for root file explorer in market and you should be able to find a free one there. I use Root Explorer which is paid, but check the one by jrummy. I think his free one may do what you need.
Not sure about the backup on your sdcard. Can you tell if the date created matches close to when you flashed?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
ok so i downloaded the 1 by jrummy and i open data rwxrwx--x than i open media and its basically a copy of my internal sdcard and i checked the time of the backup and it says 10:51pm (original backup was this around 3:00) so im guessing i screwed myself over by rewriting over my original modem backup.
One more thing I just thought of and it may cause more headaches...
Did you try to flash the radio more than once? If so it may have overwritten the original modem.backup.
If that is the case you may need to get someone else with a T999V to backup theirs for you. The guy you mentioned who had the same problem may have one already. Might want to PM him. Also you could post in the original thread and someone else may have it already. Also I think there is a thread on here dedicated to Canadian users which I think is for the T999V.
If you find one copy it into /data/media making sure to change the permissions to match the previous backup you overwrite. Then flash the restore.
If you only flashed it once then you shouldn't have to worry about all that.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
yes i think we're both right, i did overwrite the original backup. i shouldnt have panicked and waited a couple of hours and everything would be back to normal now. I did pm 2 people who messed up like me and 1 of them was able revert back to original modem but that person was using wind mobile s3. I bought the my s3 from mobilicity, unlocked it and inserted my wind sim card but my modem would mobilicity t999v modem right? Would wind modem work for me? they are both t999v versions. and i dont know how to changethe permissions to match previous backup.
i appreciate your help man, you helped me clear up some things. thank you
oh i also cant post in the original thread because i need more than 10 posts lol

Damn, I was hoping that didn't happen! Sorry for the bad advice in the beginning of this thread. Had no idea that it would overwrite the backup....
I think your next best step would be to post in the original thread and/or pm a request for the modem.backup file for your version.
I know it sucks going thru all this but all is not lost. If I can help anymore let me know, but I think you just need someone with that file now.
Again, I'm sorry for the poor guidance earlier....

Lol, everytime I post, I hit refresh and you've already responded with what I was trying to say.
Ill post a request in the thread for you. I'm thinking the Wind and Mobilicity are likely compatible both being T999V, but I don't want to go on assumptions any more on this one! Ill ask about that over there as well.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
dont feel bad dude! i actually overwrote my backup waaay before you started helping me out lol so its not your fault at all lol but im confused if you are replying to my last post or my 2nd last post lol. still wondering if all T999V models (wind, mobilicity, videotron) have the same modem or I have to find mobilicity modem to go back to normal.
ok so i found a site that lets you download the latest firmware for t999v and i checked all 3 firmwares (videotron wind and mobilicity) and they are all
T999VVLALE6 so i am guessing they are all compatible. the only thing confuses me is the dude that tried it with wind, he posted a link of his modem after flash and this is the file name t999vvlle6_modem...the only thing thats missing is the letter "a" lol
I just posted the request. Also asked if any other unforseen problems could occur if you do try flashing the Wind version. I don't think it would change the situation at this point, but I also didn't realize this could happen to begin with!
I think u would be safe, but can't guarantee it!
Problem with that missing "a" is that it could be a typo when he renamed the backup, or it could be different software...if he's still online could you pm him to verify?

The more I think about it the more it seems like a typo. All 3 have same version on firmware download site so....
Honestly, if it were me, id probably give it a shot. But thats me!
Naturally there is the risk, so its entirely up to you. If you decide not to try, it just comes down to waiting for a response.

Heh. Just noticed I missed the part wher u said u bought from mobilicity but are on Winds network. Reinforces my thinking that the wind modem will work...it may even be better if they are different.
Still though, its your call!
To change permissions long press yhe file you want to change and it should have permissions in the popup menu.
Ill check what the correct ones are and get back to you in a few.

thanks dude you pretty much asked all the questions i had in mind. i read somewhere that flashing the stock firmware might fix this problem so im gonna try that i before i go to sleep. the question i have in mind which firmware should i download, mobilicity or wind. i bought the phone from mobilicity (no plan, no simcard) unlocked it and used my wind sim card so im guessing its still a mobilicity phone?

T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II Stock Kernel // UVKID
Finally guys we have root access and with root access that brings goodies, this is one of those goodies.
Explanation
What we have here is a stock boot.img (imagine that Samsung changing things up again on us) pulled from a rooted (via recovery) T-Mobile SGH-T989 (Samsung Galaxy S II).
With this you can recover your phone using ODIN, in the case of a brick or just to return to a factory state.
Initramfs for Developers
I have extracted the boot.img and posted it up for all developers on my github.
Code:
https://github.com/bubby323/stock-initramfs-UVKID-galaxysII-tmo
Downloads
Also to restore you're phone I have a nice little tar file that will take care of the job for you that you can grab from here.
How to Flash
We are going to be using Odin in this explanation to flash the stock kernel to your phone.
Downloads
First you are going to want to start by downloading all the needed files onto your computer and then place them onto your Desktop.
Samsung Kies
Odin3-v1.85.zip
SGH-T989-Stock-UVKID.tar
Process
Once you have everything downloaded and on your desktop, you are going to want to first install kies.
After this is done you should restart your computer for proper driver installation.
Next, extract Odin to a new folder on your Desktop. Leave the tar in the form it is.
Now, open up Odin by double clicking the .exe in the folder you extracted it to.
The most important step is now, you need to put your device into Download/ODIN mode so your computer will recognize it and be able to flash to it. To do this simply turn your phone off completely (or pull the battery). Then you are going to want to use the following button combination to force your device into download mode:
Hold the volume up/down and power button all at the same time.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now ODIN should have recognized your device ( it may take a while for the drivers to complete installation so don't panic the first time).
Lastly, we want to click on the PDA button and then search for the SGH-T989-Stock-UVKID.tar we download earlier and placed on the Desktop.
If all of the above has taken place you are free to hit the Start button.
Done!
If all has gone well at this point the flash should be proven successful and your phone should reboot like normal.
If so, please feel pressured to give yourself a pat on the back, that was tough!

This is not a method for obtaining root. It's reference material, and also a way to return yourself to stock if you flash a hosed kernel.
If you already have a stock kernel, I am 90% certain that this will do absolutely nothing.
But having a "return to stock kernel" path AND a fresh initramfs are major milestones for development.
You're not at risk, you should be perfectly fine using slayher's method, but if you screw up, this will be a component of your path back to a working phone. But it's only useful if you screw up, you're a kernel developer who wants a clean initramfs for reference, or need to return your phone back to 100% stock. However, if you're in one of those three categories, this is a critical milestone.
This will put stock recovery back on also right?
[Q] Files from a ROM around?
I've asked this before and I should probably shut it, but if anyone has files from a ROM that works with ODIN or a ZIP file (CWM compat or not), root or unrooted (doesn't matter), or a NANDROID backup, could you let me know?
I got stock kernel up, CWM recov, but broke my actual OS- since it broke, I done flashed /data /emmc /system to empty out my stomach. I really just need everything from / (minus your personal data, of course) - can get it to work with a recovery by myself (and can post that up if I do).
Thanks in advance, bruvs.

Don't quote me but if I'm not mistaken you can always push through odin in download mode. If the recovery gets screwed.

It should, however the way I look at it is that if it isnt broke why fix it. So many people have lost their imei or data flashing roms, recovery and so on that I am just going to stick with what I installed originally. it doesnt bother me to click the volume rocker up and down and press power to select. I also flashed color in high def with no problems what so ever. Remember to flash SU in recovery after you use Odin for the Recovery. I also went into the market and installed busybox after I flashed SU.

First of all, to make it totally clear how noob Im at this... I dont even know if this post goes in this section, so feel free to move it wherever fits best.
Second, excuse my english, its not my first language so ill try my best to explain what I did
Last but not least, thanks to anyone who takes the time to read this post and tries to help me.
So, I finally felt courageous enough to try a non-stock ROM.
The first thing I did was search for a rooting guide for the Glide on the forums. And I found one that seemed pretty straight forward. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1378082). I downloaded Odin, the CarrierIQ free kernel, started the phone on download mode, started Odin, PDA the kernel file... and when the phne rebooted it got stuck on the samsung sign.
I think my problem is that the guide was old and for GB devices. I was running the stock ICS.
After that, I downloaded from samfirmware the ICS file (is it the kernel or the rom? <-yes, thats how of a noob i am). Tried to use odin with it, but it gets stuck after a couple of mins.
After searching for a while, I found on another forum that it says that I need to downgrade back to GB, and said to install CWM Recovery (I installed it -v5.0.2.7-). And now im downloading the inception ROM (the same post on that forum said to downgrade using that ROM). Since the download is really slow, Im writing here to see if someone knows what happened and how to fix it.
Thanks!

Hi, thanks for your reply.
I downloaded the Stock Kernel but cant seem to install it. Im using CWM and trying to install from SDCard, but it only shows me the internal memory from the phone, not my SD. I already formatted it in FAT32 format. Same results.
Can I do this via Odin? Any idea why my SD isnt showing?

Not sure about cwmr 5 but in ver 6 (touch) you can mount the internal memory, use your usb cable and transfer the zip to the phone with your pc. UN-mount and disconnect the cable and then you should be able to find the file to flash!

Do you have a link for it? The dropbox one I found isnt working... dont know if the CWM is specific for each device, i found others on google, but since they are on another devices forums, I dont know if it will work with my glide....
Thanks for the help....
The other thing you can do is download the leaked ics that it's a Odin one click file that will flash the kernel and boot loader, should get your phone booted back into stock ics where you can get a fresh start. I'd recommend going to Thegreatergood's LiteRom ver 4 or 5 afterwords. At least until Dman gets cm10 going!

The other thing you can do is download the leaked ics that it's a Odin one click file that will flash the kernel and boot loader, should get your phone booted back into stock ics where you can get a fresh start. I'd recommend going to Thegreatergood's LiteRom ver 4 or 5 afterwords. At least until Dman gets cm10 going!

Thanks! No, the link is not working (too much traffic for DropBox), so if you have it, i would really appreciate it.
Also, can you point me into the Odin compatible ROM... I downloaded the LiteRom and Kernel, but both are zips, and cant use them with Odin.
ok here is the CWMR v6 its in a zip file. just unzip to your desktop, the tar.md5 file is useable in the pda mode for odin. just follow the guide listed in the CWMR 6 thread.

here is the link to the ics leak. its a 665mb file that will completely wipe all data in your phone. just be careful!

I would also suggest making a backup if the /efs folder on your phone. that folder contains all the imei information that identifies you device to the networks. there is a thread in another forum that uses a tool to easily make a backup and gives the ability to restore! I have never had to use it to restore, but there have been reports on rare occasions where others have lost that information and the imei numbers turned to all "0's" I'm also not sure that you can use the tool until the phone is booted up. here is a link to that thread...

that's great, you might consider making a nand backup using the recovery and also once rooted, use titanium backup!
Well Im finally using the literom and its great. Cwm6 didnt read my sd card, but it allowed me to mount my phone as a drive on my pc, so i made a folder and copied the zips there, and installed from there.
I will try the backup thing later. Im so glad to have the keyboard backlight back!
I was really frustrated yesterday. I have a lot of experience with computers, but not that much with android phones. It was quite an experience.
Thanks again.

Glad you were able to get it going! It's somewhat hard to brick a phone but it is possible, I really hate to see that happen to someone! Over the past years I have found that android is a lot like Linux. Still some differences but a lot alike!

I am unfortunately stuck in the same position at the moment. I stupidly followed the root guide thinking it'd work for ICS and was horribly wrong.
My phone is now also stuck at the Samsung logo and is driving me crazy. Can you give me some instructions on what you did to restore back to GB? Thanks in advance.

DL Odin v3.07 on your computer. DL the .tar file to restore your specific device. Put your phone into DL mode and let Odin restore your device.

Same thing happened to me (Couldnt boot into recovery and needed a stock ROM).
This is where I posted, you can find some information there: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2260948
Like "freakboy13" said, "If you can get into DL mode, you're golden." Don't worry it just takes patience and you have to keep trying.
1. First, you want to find a stock ROM only (normally 836MB zipped and around 1.42 unzipped)
2. Make sure you're using a domestic ROM, not International and make sure you're using your model number. Do you have AT&T? if so search for - SAMSUNG SGH-I317. If not search for the one you need.
3.Flash it using Odin. I used Odin 1.87 I believe, I didn't have to use 3.07.
4. Let us know how it goes. I had to do it twice and it worked so be patient.

No...you are "NOT" bricked.....you have a software brick only.
These fine members above me have you going in the right direction.
Make sure you thank them once you get the device rolling again....g
Heres my guide.
If you can get into dl mode "you are golden" :thumbup:
This is a tutorial on how to use the fastest and simplest way back to stock aka Emegrency Firmware Recovery.
This is accessed via kies.
You should do a bit more reading before attempting to use odin. Using odin is not for newbs. Dont just dl apps snd flash stuff with out understanding whats going on. Mobile odin goomanager is great, just know whats actaully going on.
What you a should do is go back to stock via efr. Heres my guide with pics.

So than all we need to do is make sure the phone retains the modem. Thats it ? I thought there would be more to it. not that im complaining. Thanks for the help.

im am going to try it now. havent had time because of the kids but now they are asleep, here goes nothing. i will report once im up and running.
Ok so I just got done flashing this projectaosp.
First I made sure I downloaded latest tmobile modem as of june or july I believe, as well as the most recent saber kernal. Flashed modem first, then the rom followed by kernal.
Everything looks and performs freakin awesome however im missing something. As I speculated its not as easy as just retaining just the modem.
My google play store gives up errors when it does the automatic backup. My voicemail is not working. So I can assume anything tmobile is out of the question. Perhaps I need to tweak my apn settings ? Can anyone shine light to what im missing to get this working ?
I know just by flashing this is the rom I want and need. Just need it functional. Im willing to try anything if you give me instuctions. Ive already "bricked " my note 2 and brought it back so im not scared to try anything. However this was very noticeably quick and snappy compared to my daily driver of the jedi 17 rom. I want this rom so badly on my t-889. Its the best of both worlds, touchwiz and aosp. Please help or directions.

You know i had a feeling i may have flashed it in a incorrect order because i had no service when i went to my backed up jedi rom and had to dirty flash the radio. Thank you for pointing that out. i will try it now and report.

I tried the same rom, flashed project AOSP, flashed stock radio, flashed stock kernel, No go on data, I went to try to set the apn, and it says no sim card.
...so... I am guessing you will have the same luck.
its not registering my sim card. which answers why i was running into those issues before. i tried flashing in the correct order. and then also dirty flashed again after my first attempt.
