Wrong Device? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Ok, so I got a old GS II from a friend to borrow until I can afford the stupid $150 deductible for my stolen N4. I tried flashing a t989 rom on it and everytime it gives me an incompatibility error in the recovery. I727 roms flash though. This phone says t989 in the battery compartment but everything in the system says I727. The rotation is screwed up so I'm pretty sure it's a t989 but I can't get anything for it to flash. Please help.

Try using Odin to flash Hercules stock 4.1.2 with Odin. That should get you back on track. Then flash a Hercules twrp with Odin and root again.
Done.

Should do a nandroid before doing anything. Just to be safe.

And.... The reason everything days i727 is it has a sky rocket kernel. Usually if using a sky rocket rom... You would flash a t989 kernel after rom.

Epic ei22 stock keeps rebooting.

I haven't been on the Epic since last year (5 months back now). Now my mom has the phone but it's been rebooting since she updated to ei22. Does anyone know how to fix this problem without rooting or is it a known issue with stock ei22?

It was more than likely a bad download and update. My suggestion if you capable would be to flash back to stock ec05. Play with that to assure its ei22's problem only. After that I would suggest you go ahead and update it make sure your on wifi and download it and let it flash again. These reboots are common in ei22 I think more so on stock than custom roms so rooting my be your only answer if you do want to root I can do it for you xD

the ei22 stock has some issues. do you know how to use ODIN to flash back to ec05 stock and then let it reupdate?

reboots are usually related to the kernel . so might just have to have the update reload and then see if it continues to reboot.

Stock Bell unrooted rom

I've searched for a good 15 minutes, I might have let it slip, but I'm really busy and I need to have this rom for tonight. This is a big time request.
I'm sending my cellphone for overheating problems because I'm still under warranty, and I can't find the Canadian rom for the SGS3(BELL). I have the stock + root one, but I can't find a really stock one. My flash trip counter and other things that should be default are not tripped, so it shouldn't pose any problem.
Last little question : Do I flash the stock rom via cwm to keep the counters normal? It should also remove cwm, right?
Thanks, sorry for being a burden.

Also you flash through Odin via computer or mobile Odin on phone. I the it should make your phone stock then get triangleaway to reset the phone status

It's a nice link, tried to go for the download, of course it doesn't work.
I'll google too then. If anybody has a working link, I'll take it.

I'm a jackass. I found it myself.
The only problem is it's in the wrong section, it should be in this one not the verizon one.

[Q] Developer Settings File?

I accidentally changed the replicate secondary display setting in dev settings, phone will not boot past the end of the boot ani or past the starting apps pop up.
I have tried wiping cache and dalvik, re flashing the rom, wiping the system partition and re flashing rom, deleting settings and settings provider and reflashing the rom and I also tried to delete data/data/com.android.settings and then reflashing.
Does any one know of a way to reset the dev settings without doing a full wipe?
Please and Thank you guys
Maybe adb? If you figure out which file contains the settings I can send it to you.

Sorry I can't share the file as it contains information about my account.
Try deleting the file. All the three in the folder. If you got a stock rom zip then extract it from there.

Is there any chance you would want to root the 4.1.1 and pull an image of the bootloader using a script one of the XDA users prepared. Quite a few of us have hard bricked our phones and we would like to try and boot from an SD card with the 4.1.1 bootloader. If you can help here is the recovery flashable file to generate the image.

Someone who has FULLY updated to the new build NE4 needs to flash the linked file via custom recovery. This will create a new debrick.img on your sdcard that you can then upload to help rescue the dead devices here. If the new debrick.img has already been found, disregard this.
T999_Partial_Sys_Dump_for_Debrick.zip
I know it says T999 in the file name, but it should work for the I747 just the same.
Hope it helps!
Let me know if you can help.

I found this site has the MG2 4.1.2 update. Might be worth a try.

I already rooted 4.1.1 I can dump it if you need it.

I tried that one but the update file is bad so it wont work.
Also. I have another s3 running 4.1.2 stock just rooted. Is there anything I could do with that phone to get it on to this one.

If you could dump that would help us out to see if it debricks us.

ok so i found out and figured out how to update back to 4.1.2
I had to Triangle away and odin back to stock 4.1.1 with no root
Then put the update421.zip from here
Then boot into the stock recover and flash the update file.
Bam now I have 4.1.2 Stock un rooted.
Next I'm going to root it and dump it for you.
If your phone isn't unlocked, you could flash back to 4.1.1 and unlock it.
If you are on 4.1.2 all you need to do to unlock is flash the 4.1.1 modem.
