Hello.
I recently got myself a Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 7in and everything seemed to be working just fine until the system eventually prompted me to update the Samsung software. I followed the steps, the tablet downloaded the update files itself and rebooted in order to install the updates. Problem is, during the reboot/installation process the screen remained black with just 2 lines of pixels on across the screen, I though this was part of the booting process but it just stood there for more than 10 minutes so I decided to turn it back on. Everything seemed to be fine, but then an error message came up saying there could be problems with the software (i didn't pay too much attention), but after this it won't let me install any apps. After an app is done downloading a message pops up saying "unknown error code during application install -110", plus my computer (or any other computer) doesn't detect when it's plugged in via USB cable. I've tried doing several factory resets and wipes and still have the same issues. Tried installing Kies but it won't detect it either.
How can I repair the firmware without having to connect the tablet to my computer? Is there anything I can download directly to it or transfer via Bluetooth to re-install the software?
Any help will be very much appreciated
Try resetting it back to factory defaults. You can google it easily.

my friend has the same problem. did you fix the issue? if so how?
I am using the Apex Launcher but I think this is possible with stock launcher as well hopefully it helps someone. This is one way to do a factory reset is:
You will need your MSL TO DO THIS. If you don't know it put the "Factory Mode" shortcut on your home screen then skip down to the 2nd part of this post & install the msl app.
FACTORY RESET:
1) long click on the home screen
2) click on shortcut
3) select Activities
4)Scroll down to "Factory Mode" tap it then select the dropled down one. This will put a Shortcut on the Home Screen.
5) Find the Factory Mode shortcut you just made & tap it to open it.
6) Dial ##786# then on the screen that pops up
7) select "RESET"
8)enter your msl in the box that popped up then select ok then the device will reboot & when it powers backup it will be like it was from the factory & if you don't know your MSL follow the instructions below.
TO GET MSL:
1) In a browser type bit.ly/mslutility - can sideload if needed
2)install app
3) Open app & click get MSL it will most likely fail this is fine.
4) click on the factory mode shortcut you made to open it
5) dial ##3282# & put in 6 zeros-it will tell you that it's incorrect this is fine. Go back to home screen
6) Open the MSL App & click on Get MSL-this time it should give you your devices 6 digit MSL Code. Write it down. Then do step # 6 above to reset your Device.
This shortcut will allow you to put the Sprint SGT3 into DIAG MODE(##3424#) , get into the ##data#(##3282#) menu, do the factory reset ##RTN# (##786#) & most likely any other Dialer/hidden menu's for this device.
Thanks to the MSL App builder(not sure who it is so let me know please)

I am looking for help. I am a noob and I rooted my phone and it all went well. I froze apps that others had frozen. I tried to be very cautious but I froze LGSetupWizard with titanium backup and then did a hard reset. My phone now starts up with the setup wizard and when it gets to the end it states that the application (process com.android.LGSetupWizard) stopped unexpectedly then it loops back to the beggining. I have actually been able to access my email and the net from the notification dropdown. I am lost as what to do. Is my phone bricked? Is it possible to simply put the application back into the phone somehow? I have access to the files that I froze through titanium back up on my computer as they were on the sd card. I would really appreciate any help
Can't you just skip out of the wizard before it gets to the end? Or choose to not go through it at all?
Try the factory reset and see if that helps... Just guessing though ?
How
The start-up wizard started automatically after the reset. I have tried to get out of it but when I "exit" it brings up the same error message. I read a post on another phone where you could opt out of it by pushing a few buttons in a certain sequence but it did not work. How would I do a factory reset as is? Any ideas? Thank You!!
Can you get debug mode running (possibly by connecting to your computer, selecting the computer usb connection, and then long holding the line in notification center or something)? If so, you might be able to push the backed up .apk with adb and get it reinstalled.
Explanation
I really apprecitate your post. I am sorry I am a noob and I am not sure what you mean by "long holding the line in notification center". I will download ADB and research how to use it. Thank You!!
If you can make adb working, then you can use 'adb uninstall' the TB, or use 'adb shell' login to phone, su, then delete TB app or data
TB?
Thank you for your post, what is TB?
I must be a real idiot. I found out after the fact that if you select any other option than PC software on the USB connection mode it disables debugging mode. I have ADB but it is not recognizing the phone because it is not in debugging mode. Is there any other way to activate debugging mode besides Settings -> Applications -> Development -> USB debugging?
Please Help!
TB means TitaniumBackup.
Another way to enter adb:
If you have cwm recovery installed, pls continue see following steps:
1. Enter CWM Recovery mode.
2. Then connect your phone to computer
3. enter "adb devices"
D:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb devices
List of devices attached
LGOxxxxxxxxx recovery
If you see above, then good, enter "adb shell" to login to your phone.
enter "id" to make sure you are root.
then:
cd /data/app
ls -l *Titanium*
#you should see something like com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup.apk
#then enter:
mv com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup*.apk TitaniumBackup.abc
Above cmd will make the app executable file invalid extension, which should disable the TB app. (I didn't try, but I guess it should disable the app)
HTH,
xordos
CWM Recovery
I don't have CWM recovery, I tried to research it and I could not find the LG nitro in the list for clockwork mod, should I use one of the optimus models? I rooted with superoneclick. If I froze the file in TB would uninstalling TB unfreeze it? I have actuall been able to use mail, messaging, and the phone when someone else calls or emails me and I have been able to access settings for each of these specific areas but I have not been able to access settings for the debugging.
Thank You!!
USB debugging on how do I push the files?
I have ADB running and I am in debugging mode. I still have root. How and where would I push the file onto the device.
Thank you!!
Resolved
My issue has been resolved. Thanks for the help!
problem fixed
hello .
If you still have the problem with the lg phone , there is a very easyyyyyy solution .
I had the same problem ; i deleted Lg home because i was using go launcher home , then one day i just moved go launcher on the sd card . That was the problem , i hard reset my phone 20 time , but still in the end of the reset process i was receving that error , the process stoped .
Ok , once you have reached the error " setup wizard process stop " , press the close button . Than press the 3d menu button . You will go into 3d menu , there click 3d games and accesories . Launch the game asphat 3d. The game will be installed . After you launch the game , there is a small button in the game , in the top left corner , similar with an earth , named info . Click that button , than click the twiter button . Now you will launch the internet browser and you problem it's fixed. Once the internet it's opened , go to google com , and search for any launcher . By example seach go launcher , find it , download it , install it . When you want to install it a windows asking about some security settings will open . It;s the settings menu of the phone . Here you can can allow to install application that dosen't come from play store , or you can just enable usb debuging ( and of course with usb debuggin enabled ,you can easly update or downgrade your phone using the lg official software ) .
Good luck .
hey man, how did you fix this problem? i have the same deal right now. thanks
gave up. flashed kdz
Hi there,
I owned a Galaxy Nexus running Jelly Bean 4.2.1 version, yakjuxw (Not rooted), GSM. I activated the Pattern Lock to prevent the kids at my relatives house messing my phone. Unfortunately, I forgot the pattern and the phone stays locked out. I have tried the pattern combinations for days but failed.
I have tried to key in my Gmail account username/password but since my phone is wifi/data switched off, I cant sign in. Moreover, I am not sure whether the USB Debugging is enabled.
I have tried some 'hole' methods recommended at some forums, but it didnt work on my phone.I hope to get access to my messages/images/some files and transfer them to my pc before reset the phone to factory setting. Please help! :-|

You can reset the phone to Factory settings.
1. Turn off your phone.
2. Press vol up+vol down+power buttons till it vibrates. Now you see a dead android.
3. Navigate with your volume buttons to "Recovery Mode" and select it with the power button.
4. When its booted you should see a soort of menu.
5. Select "wipe data" (or something like that). THIS WIPES YOUR DATA AND YOUR INTERNAL STORAGE (music, pictures etc..)
6. Select reboot system now.
7. Done.

Thank you for the reply. But, I wish to get access to my files in order to transfer them to a save location before reset the phone to Factory settings. Is there a way to hack into the device without wiping out the data?

Call yourself from another phone and answer, after that your phone will probably get unlocked.
In ADB or some other way to access the file system in Recovery Mode
navigate to /data/system and
delete password.key and/or gesture.key
- reboot.
Password/Gesture Lock gone.
You can use AROMA File Manager in Recovery (would have to sideload it if you didn't pre-install it)

Thank you for the help. What do you mean by sideload? I am using a Galaxy Nexus which has no SD slot.

Hi, I have searched about sideload. I have never rooted my phone before and having difficulties in understanding the android features. Can you provide me a walk-through on how can I install the recovery on my locked out phone and access my files please.
FYI, I tried the adb method listed above, but the terminal returns <error no device found>. I tried the method on Mint (linux) live session.
I managed to get access to my data. Messages are the only thing I am losing out. Thank you XDA guys.
Hi there
It all started once I accepted Android 6 load from T-Mobile.
After the update, I started to get an error message when I was trying to open settings.
I did hard reset to get back to factory settings, but guess what? Now I am getting this pop-up when phone boots, so I am not able to use the phone at all anymore.
USB mode is not set after reset, so I can NOT connect phone to pc to try to manage it....
Anything I can do in that situation?
Thanks!
I cannot attach a picture, so if you want to check it, see the post on another forum I did yesterday....
go to androidforumsDOTcom and search for "infinite pop-ups on phone reboot" on it....

So hello there!
I'm having the following issue and I'm kinda out of ideas.
I was running a (KingRoot) rooted fireOS 4.6.6.1 (420) if I'm not mistaken.
So this is what happened:
Phone was running just fine, but I wanted to get rid of the facebook background services which kept running without the actual app installed. Also a friend proposed to run the 'fstrim' command. So reading through xda I found an app called 3C Toolbox (http://www.3c71.com/android/?q=node/916) which seemed to be safe to use. Installed it and still didn't change a thing except for the three 'fstrim' actions to perform. After that I restarted my phone.
Powered off just fine, but at the start only the 'Amazon' logo comes up and vanishes into a black screen with the backlight still on. Even after waiting several hours nothing changes.
So what did I attempt to get it wirking again?
At first I tried to simply restart it. --> Nothing changed.
Tried to get into recovery and clean the cache. --> Nothing changed except the 'Amazon' being on for a bit longer
Get into ADB and try pull/uninstall... --> Guess due to the locked bootloader I'm not allowed to issue any command other than 'adb sideload [packagename]' for system updates. As for ADB itself I can only get it to recognize on the PC when I get into recovery and choose the 'apply update from ADB' option.
Get into fastboot according to this tutorial (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1668159) --> doesn't work.
Get into 'Safe Mode' with this tutorial (https://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-phone/help/how-to-fire-phone-to-boot-safe-mode-t2828240) --> doesn't work either.
So does anybody has another idea I could give a try or should I just abondon all my data and flash a new clean image?
Also I'm not sure if updating from ADB will erase all personal data too. Guess so, but maybe I can get a clearification in here too.
