Pink/Magenta Download Mode - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Does anyone know why the Download Mode might be Magenta/Pink? I been able to root, and install a couple of ROMS but the download mode is pink ever since I got it Jtag'ed.

Is there a reason you keep asking questions in the dev thread? Please use the Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum.

Because normally this is due to a custom ROM or flashing a kernel not a fluke that happens to everybody and IMPO dev people got more experience and might have more ideas of what might be the solution.

Man this ROM bricked my phone.. Guess I need to go to the question part of XDA and find out my answeres that I have.... " see what I did there "

Your posts have nothing to do with development. PM a mod and have them moved.

This whole web site is about custom ROMs, flashing kernels, etc. Maybe the site should just be one huge dev thread...?

Thread moved to Q&A. Just so there's no mistakes made, questions like this NEVER belong in Development. Further postins such as this will result in disciplinary action being taken, and I'd rather not do that. Carry on.

Grab either Chris's stock repacked w/CWM5 or Rogue kernel. You will want the tar file. You will flash it in PDA slot in Odin. In the future, please post questions in Q&A

I don't know, how about you learn how to read and write, then learn how to follow guidelines and last but not least post where you're supposed to. Better yet, get an iPhone, done.

Rude? I never used foul launguage or name calling, if I was rude it was cause I suggested you get an iPhone, I apologise for that. I find your actions rude when you post where you're not supposed to. I guess we all have different opinions of what rude means. Nonetheless, done here.

Not really man, this is a development forum, you should have used q&a

root MIUI 2.6.15 ?

can anyone tell me how to root MIUI 2.6.15 ?
You should post this in miui thread ... that way you get the help you need for that rom
Wrong section dude. That's why there is a 'Q&A' section for the phone. To post there, there is NO other questions in this thread. Just ROMs and some occasional 'how-to's.... so please read prior to posting.
No harm done though, so PM a mod and ask them to delete this or move it.
Not to mention, you don't root a ROM, you root the phone so you can flash the ROM

I believe it's a minor glitch in the tapatalk XDA app or the actual XDA app from the Play store.

Help me get from 4.0.4 to stock 4.2 please. I am rooted

Hey folks,
I rooted my GS3 months ago and recently tried downloading the OTA update. The update failed and now I am stuck at 4.0.4 and when I tried to update I have a grayed out continue update option. I don't mind manually flashing the update via usb but I want to stick with just a stock rom just rooted so I can remove the bloatware and use Titanium Backup. Could someone point me in the right direction please?
Try getting a clue and posting in the right section moron.

Hey, he's just trying to fit in with the rest of the stuck-up XDA followers whom have a false sense of entitlement lol.
For the OP, 4.2 is not out just yet. I'm sure you meant 4.1.1 JellyBean. Take a look here, it's a great tutorial to get to the new update for the brand NEW stock GS3 Touchwiz Jellybean. It allows you to keep your root as well:

Now, wasn't that easier than just telling him that he is an idiot? Yes, it's the wrong section, but damn... some people.

Wow. Attitudes like that are certainly NOT what this or any forum are about. Who the hell do you think you are to think you are so damn entitled? Quick tip, GTFO. The guy doesn't know so cut him a little slack.

Also good advice. I'm sure there are a few stock based TW ROMs in the development section that the OP can flash. I wouldn't know as I'm an AOSP head. Anyway, the OTA update probably failed due to the fact that he's rooted and probably removed some bloat. My suggestion to the OP would be to flash any of the JB Touchwiz ROMs in the subforum I mention if that's what he wants. There's also tutorials floating around on how to do that if he's unsure of what to do.
Also, thread reported for movement.
Silly Humans. All you had to do is report that it was in the wrong section and one of us would move it out of Development and into the appropriate section. Oh wait, that is what 1 user did do.
I was going to clean this thread out but instead, I'll leave all the responses so that if anyone comes across this, they'll know what not to do and how not to respond to threads started in the wrong section.
Moved to Q&A
Thanks Wood. I have that magical mod power on other forums and miss it when I visit forums I don't have the power in. The responses some people give are just aggravating.
Thanks guys!
Sorry for the wrong forum. I tried posting in another forum but it said I was restricted because I had less than 10 posts. With your help I am successfully at 4.1. :good:

If you want to keep root i would recommend installing root66_ATT_I747UCDLK3.tar.md5 from odin assuming you have a att phone. This is probably the easiest way.

[Q} Are N4 Roms flashable.

Hello,
I know i posted in the wrong section, and i apologize but i need a real answer, from someone with knowledge. I got no answers in the other forum.
I was told by someone in the AT&T forums that my phone ( E971 ) is capable of accepting N4 flashes. I was looking to see if i could convert my phone into a N4, and he said i could just flash nexus roms. Is there a trick, or something i need to do before doing this? I tried flashing a N4 Rom, but TWRP failed it because device id i believe. Wouldnt let me flash. Can someone help me out, some guidance or even just answers would make me extremely happy thank you.
OP moved here, I understand your need but also you understood that you posted in the Wrong section, Please read the Forum Rules on posting. Thank You.

Sorry bud was just hoping for a quick answer before it got moved. No luck. Apologize again.
If only they were...*sigh*
Do not ever flash nexus4 Roms or kernels. Most n4 kernel flash by partition number and not by name. You'll get a hard brick.

yes you can,but it's not recommended.what model.do you have?if you have the e975,your camera will be broken,the n4 has 8mpx camera and you will lose half of your storage.and the most important thing,you can hardbrick your phone.conclusion,don't convert to nexus.or do it,but don't ask here.no one wants to be responsable for messing up your phone.

Don't think it would be a good idea for you to flash any room onto any phone if you can't even ask a question in the right thread my friend, just an advice

Hey Doc has a thread about the LTE variant... I would say ask there..BUT your anwser is NO I do not think you should flash as the firmware and such is different for your LTE .....
Doc's thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2308514
PS. You could also post in the header of the thread to ask a MOD to close this or move to Q&A don't want to see you get flamed....
You flashed a rom on your old GS3 and it got hard brick? I dont mean to sound rude.. I mean I can help when I can but it is obvious that you didnt know about a Q/A section of this forum how can you go and flash something without reading and having knowledge? The T999L is to new. Unless people have confirm that what works and what doesn't
