Develop Bugs

Think I killed my GS3. :(

Wasn't paying attention when updating my ROM for a AT&T GS3 and accidentally tried to install the Verizon Equivalent. Original ATT Rom was AOKP Jelly bean.
Anybody have any ideas on what to do? The phone doesn't seem to be able to enter recovery mode, but can enter "Downloading... Do not turn off target !!"
FML

Odin back a stock firmware and see if that works. Look in the stickies in development section.

Yeah, if you get the "downloading" then you're golden. Just use Odin to restore to stock.

And here is the stock image you would flash to your phone using ODIN:

Or at least it's the one I use for my ATT SIII.

Thanks guys. I started getting worried when the new version of Odin was not connecting with my GS3. Luckily, the older version on my computer synced right up and am going back to stock.
Phew!

Good thing it seems like the architecture of the US GS3s is similar enough that flashing another carrier's ROM won't result in a nice hard brick that requires JTAG/warranty fix.

[Q] No data/services after kernel flashing

Hello guys, I'm pretty new to cellphone ROM flashing and modifying.
I successfully flashed the Jedi X7.2 on to my Mobilicity Note 2 T889V, and with a little effort I even flashed the Rogers modem on to it and fully enabled 4G/LTE service since I use Fido, they pretty much share the same frequency.
Then I tried the Bullet Kernel 1.9.01b made by cmenard on top of the Jedi x7.2, which then I lost my data, no 2G, 3G, 4G at all.
So I went ahead and tried to flash back to Jedi with all the wipe data/factory restore and everything, still no luck.
I also formatted the entire sdcard directory, trying to start from fresh, with some other types of ROMs such as MyRom and so on. Now my phone even keeps restarting every minute or so.
After a while I started to become frustrated, it was perfect if I've stopped when I got the 4G, any suggestions? I really really appreciate any input on this problem. Thanks a ton

OMFG, punctuate. My crypto devices can't decipher the longest run-on sentence in history!
To the OP, I would odin the original stock image back onto your phone. Then, update to the latest update via keis or OTA. At this point, you are at least functioning again. THEN, maybe try out Jedi.
Side note, why did you try the new kernal in the first place?

Your posts are really really bad. Not to insult you. But ive read some of them and also you give bad advice and frequently dont really know what you are doing yet you give advice to people. ...this is not good.
OP you lost your data possibly because you did not remove the t889 modem from the firmware that you flashed? Does jedi come with the t889 modem....or t889v modem? What about imei number....do you still have that?
Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk 2

I'm pretty sure that Jedi X has the saber kernal built in...no need to flash a kernel. The developer is packing it with the ROM because it is not ready to be a stand alone kernel in his opinion (last i read anyways)
I'm on Jedi X and I didnt have to do anything to the kernel and my data works fine (minus MMS)

Hes using CANADIAN T889V
dont you think that has something to do with it?
Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk 2

Thanks guys for the advice. The Jedi was actually working great, and the Bullet kernel is nothing wrong either, it's just the Bullet kernel I added in on top of the Jedi that screw things up.
Mine is the T889V, the Canadian version of T889, so according to some posts the developers made here the only difference is the modem, and that's why the Jedi ROM has a T889V modem patch.
However, as I mentioned, I unlocked the phone and I'm with Fido right now, and Fido uses Rogers' transmitting towers so I flashed the modem of SGH-i317M to get the 4G LTE frequency for Fido and I actually succeeded.
I'll try something out, thanks guys again.
Any other suggestions are very very welcomed!

I got your PM, but this sort of question is better discussed in-thread.
Let's backtrack a little here...
So you've got a T889V flashed with an I317M modem, on Fido, does service work on it currently? What about your IMEI?
Are your drivers correct? You should be seeing one and probably two serial ports appear in the Windows device manager.
Did you try disconnecting and reconnecting the USB cable after changing to DM mode?

Thanking for getting back to me, really appreciated.
To answer your questions:
- Yes the I317M Rogers' modem did work until I flashed a custom kernel on top of the Jedi ROM
- After the kernel flashing my mobile data was gone, and the IMEI became 0
- My drivers are the newest samsung 1.5.9.0 USB Driver for Mobile Phones
- Yes I did disconnect the device before changing it to the DM+MODEM+ADB mode.

your issues is running a modem that is not compatible with the modules you flashed when you flashed the kernel.
this is why it is a good idea to just run things that are built for your device and your device only. you might have to odin back to stock to get your device working again. you should check your settings>about device> and see if your IMEI is still there.... i would suggest sticking with t mo builds in the future if you are not quite sure what you are doing. blindly flashing things without doing some careful reading can be a recipe for a bricked device or permanently lost data/device ID

Yes I can, and it can connect too with QPST, just thar it will show "No Phone" and not be able to read/write anything to the phone.

Try rndis + dm + modem, and make sure Kies isn't interfering?
Beyond that I'm not too sure. What exact drivers load for the ports?

[Q] Galaxy S3 GlamourS4 rom fail......

So I downloaded the GlamourS4 ROM. I did a backup through ROM manager. I booted into recovery, did a data wipe and wiped cache. The aroma installer started and when it got to the end to flash repacked bootimg there was some type of error. Now when I try to turn on my phone, NOTHING. The notification led lights up red for a second but screen won't turn on, no sound, etc. Already tried soft reset, hard reset, etc.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Sprint Galaxy S3 SPH-L710

You may have bricked it, I don't see anything that says that rom is for the Sprint version.
---------- Post added at 10:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:27 AM ----------
Can you get into download mode?

No I can't get into download mode at all. Can't get it to come on period. I've flashed plenty of custom Roms over the years and I can't friggin believe I didn't check to see what versions this ROM works on. I want to crawl into a dark hole somewhere lol

Probably have to send it off to get it jtagged.

Yes, JTAG is your only option. I don't see that rom here in the Sprint forums.
And it has nothing to do with what "versions" that rom works on. ROMs made for the international bewitch will do nothing but brick or carrier phones. No matter what.

Here it is View attachment 2061984 definitely for the International S3. The phone is bricked I'm sorry to be the third to confirm. Jtag is the only repair option.

Hi
I have been having trouble with this device since I changed the digitizer after dropping and shattering the screen, it was unlocked but after that it would only take AT&T SIM card, when I inserted my simple mobile card it pop a stop sign on the signal bar and give emergency call only when I tried to call. I have tried downgrading & unlocking again, tried custom rooms but it still didn't work. Now major problem 2 is that I was trying to install a rom using twrp I accidentally but it wit no OS loaded and now it can't be recognized by the computer. How to I get to load the OS back? Please help with the 2 issues.

Do you still have twrp recovery? Not sure about you twrp part you said you accidentally did something. You will get that no OS message after you perpormed full wipe then reboot device without flashing a rom. Download a custom rom and save to external card then flash using twrp recovery if you can still access it.

Thanks a lot for your help. Was finally able to go to boot and use Odin to load stock 4.1.2. Then downgraded to 4.1.1 and went through the secret menu method to unlock but it still will not allow calls and still shows the stop sign @ the top right on the signal bars then it disappears. The apn settings are being recognized as t-mobile and everything as far as I can tell is ok but it can't call, says only emergency...any help here?
Thanks for your time.

[Q] Note II Bricked

I'm hoping someone here can help me. I've been having tons of trouble over the last week or so with my phone. I've had to do 2-3 factory resets, downgraded to 4.1.2, returned to stock via Odin, and tried to do the 4.4 update countless times. Every time except the last one, I got an "install interrupted" error and it wouldn't go through. On Sunday, I did yet another factory reset (I was trying to get it back to stock, everything went through, but I couldn't get it out of a loop between the AT&T logo and the Samsung logo), then suddenly the update was being pushed to my phone. I let it go through, and it completed 100% this time. And then my phone wouldn't go past the black and white Samsung Galaxy Note II screen.
I've tried everything I can think of/have found online. Battery has been pulled countless times. I left it out for about 11 hours yesterday while I was at work. I can't get into recovery mode to do a factory reset, but I can get into download mode. I've tried a TWRP recovery, attempted to put 4.1.2 back on via Odin, which worked when my phone soft-bricked a few days ago, flashed the stock firmware, I even downloaded Kies to try that but Kies 3 says my phone isn't supported and the earlier one stated my version wasn't supported.
I went into the AT&T store yesterday and both the reps and tech support couldn't fix it, which I went in expecting. I ended up having to order a new phone as mine is 2 months out of warranty, but I'm still curious on if I can get it to work. Does anyone here have any ideas? Plugging the phone in to charge just brings it to the black and white screen, but I left it on last night and drained the battery and have it charging now (I assume it's charging since plugging it in brought up that B&W screen after a few minutes, but I couldn't tell you for sure). As I have a new phone coming, I'm not too worried about trying things on this one, so any ideas are welcome. I'm relatively new to rooting and flashing, so dumbed down explanations are welcome.

The phone can charge when turned off in pretty much any situation.
Depending on the exact model and release, qFuses inside many Qualcomm SoC Samsung phones prevent the bootloaders from being downgraded through Odin; flash might fail or it just won't boot afterwards because it doesn't match the signature checked by the previous step in the boot chain.
Assuming you've successfully flashed the 4.4 bootloaders, you're going to be stuck with them.
Try flashing the correct, unmodified 4.4 ROM through Odin, boot to recovery and factory reset, reboot.
Be aware that I just checked and the AT&T one isn't out on SamMobile yet... you might have to wait a few days.
Pulling the battery for a prolonged amount of time won't change a thing unless you're dealing with a thermal or hardware issue. Same goes for charging and discharging the battery, which will only reduce the battery's useful life and capacity.

You need the full, KitKat AT&T Odin flashable ROM. Period. Don't bother with any older version.
You might want to look into making a debrick SD card, but you'll need someone with a working device to post the image. (I've mostly read about this for Qualcomm devices, but it seems to work in a similar fashion for Exynos ones.)
If your Odin ROM is missing bootloaders, it is possible to dd them from a debrick image, trim any empty space at the end with a hex editor and package them into a tarball for Odin.
