CM11 question - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

AT&T Galaxy s3. I have no Internet. Everything else good. Can someone give the order of flashing. Does the update bootloader go on before the cm nighty and don't you wipe before doing both. I feel like I am doing something wrong.

Can you post a screenshot of your "About device" settings? And by Internet do you mean your data doesn't work? If so that generally points to a modem issue. As for the order of flashing, it generally goes like this:
1. Wipe Data/Factory Reset
2. Install .zip
3. Wipe Cache/Dalvik Cache
4. Reboot

What bootloader is on your phone? The LK3 baseband is 4.1.1.

Does the bootloader go on after cm11 room and don't you need to wipe before or after flashing it? How can you tell what bootloader is on your phone? Thanks

Someone tell me, does the bootloader go on first or after the cm11 rom?

The bootloader must always be loaded first. Without a bootloader, the ROM would not boot.
Wiping cache, dalvik, data, and system does not touch the bootloader or modem.

Audit, take a look up a few posts where I have a pic of my About phone. As far as I see I have the right bootloader. Remember I formatted everything, not wipe.

That screen shows your modem, not the bootloader.
If you have terminal emulator on your phone, open the app and type this in and let us know what it says:
su and press enter.
getprop ro.bootloader and press enter.
Try this if you don't have terminal emulator: boot into download mode and tell me what it says on the screen.
It's important to know which bootloader you have because that will determine what can be safely flashed to the phone.

Maybe this will help. I get this message after applying the rom right after applying the network name and password, (INSERT SIM CARD, You need to refer to your sim card instructions that came with your phone and there is a red android with on eye closed) . I have my bootloader listed in couple posts up.

Try flashing a more recent modem with this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1831898
If no dice, update the bootloader with this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2321310

That screen shot is not your bootloader, it is your modem. I don't recommend flashing any modem or bootloader related until your find out what it is.
I also have a Nexus 4 and when I got to the "About" screen, it tells me my modem is 1.0.3 but I know my bootloader not 1.0.3.

OMG. I am so embarrassed. Thank you NikoZBK for pointing this out.
Teepee, my apologies for not thoroughly reading your post
It is possible that CM11 is not completely compatible with the 4.1.1 modem. Try installing CM10.2 to see if you can get internet access over your data connection. If you can, try updating the modem and bootloader as NikoZBK suggested.
If you want, you could also flash back to unroot stock 4.1.1 and run OTA updates to get all the way to stock 4.4.2.

Seconded. And no problem. :good: I almost missed it myself.

First off let me thank the two of you for all your help. If you haven't noticed, you are dealing with someone with very little knowledge lol. If you go back to post #11 I updated the exact message I am getting. Are there any links you can give me on running OTA updates and how to flash back to unroot stock 4.11.

The easiest way to get back to stock and run OTA updates is this:
1) download the stock ATT 4.1.1 ROM from sammobile.com. Just search for the sgh-i747.
2) put your phone into download mode but don't connect it to your computer;
2) launch Odin and click on the PDA box and browse for the ROM file. The ROM file should now appear in the PDA box.
3) don't check anything in Odin except F.Reset Time;
4) connect your phone to the computer and flash the ROM in Odin by clicking on the start button;
5) when you see the word "Reset" in the Odin status window, disconnect the usb cable, pull the battery, replace the battery, boot into recovery, wipe cache and data, boot the phone.
The phone should now be running a completely stock 4.1.1 ROM. At this point, I would test out your data connection to make sure everything is working. If everything is working and you want to update via OTA, just connect to wifi and check for software updates directly from your phone.
Be aware of the fact that rooting on stock 4.3 and stock 4.4.2 can be trickier because Knox will be loaded onto your phone after running the OTA update to 4.3.

Just a quick FYI, if I may... as I understand it, the latest cm releases will have to be run on the 4.4.2 bootloader and modem. They apparently updated the radio/ril files and they don't play well with our older modems.

Would anything bad happen if I tried to format the boot folder? Thinking of formatting everything I can if it won't hurt my phone?

Phone wont detect any wifi.

OK the thing is I got my S3 which rocks by the way, but I went crazy when I switch the WiFi toggle to ON and never see a sole WiFi connection. I've tried with routers, APs, even turn my Dell Studio 1555 laptop into an AP using Connectify... and got the same problem. The phone seems to be scanning the area, but I think is not.
So this is what I've been trying so far. Reading this thread I called *#0011#, entered into Service Mode, pressing Menu I entered into WiFi and turned off WiFi powersaving mode, fixing absolutely nothing.
Then I tried to open an adb shell, then su and then:
Code:
wpa_supplicant -dd -i wlan0 -f /sdcard/wifi.log -c /etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
And I don't know if the code is wrong or something, but what I get is this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then I tried to run "wpa_cli", like an user in that post points, but adb just wont recognize that command.
After that I use the command logcat and when I switch the WiFi ON, this is what I get:
As you can see I'm getting an error
Code:
wpa_supplicant ( 5068): wlan0: Failed to initiated AP scan
So my first questions are, does this happens frecuently? Someone here has been with this problem? It's fixeable?
Thanks in advance.
There is no standard for command-line applications. In this case, it seems to be looking for:
wpa_supplicant -dd -iwlan0 -f/sdcard/wifi.log -c/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
instead of this:
wpa_supplicant -dd -i wlan0 -f /sdcard/wifi.log -c /etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
I don't use ADB, so I cannot test. However, usually if the usage doesn't show spaces, don't use them. It shows you this in the example at the bottom

I tried it and get EXACTLY the same.
However you can see the log in the logcat command I put.

If your bone stock, try using Odin and reflashing stock again. Maybe you have a corrupted driver. If your not stock, did you flash a kernel? Some have modified wifi drivers.

I'm in stock. I'll try to reflash it again. And then tell you.
However if I install a custom ROM, which kernel you recomend me?
I'm worried about this, I just need to know if it's a hardware of software problem.
Thanks.
I think they all do, but its easy to make a back up of your stock ROM first. This usually works, but sometimes it needs to be Odined back.
Are you rooted?
What build are you on?
Have you ever flashed, modded or updated anything on the phone?
Did you restore any backups from a previous rom or device?
Anything else you have done, such as installing any wifi management apps or anything like that could be useful info.
Boot into recovery, wipe cache and dalvik then reboot. If still not working try a factory reset from the settings menu. (This will wipe all data including internal sdcard)
If this doesnt work try using odin to flash MrRobinsons root66 version of UVALH2. (This way you will have root if you dont already and will have more ability to troubleshoot than without in case it still doesnt work.) (Or if you are just set against rooting flash the regular UVALH2 fw)
If you are on build UVALEM or UVALG1, while in the wifi scan screen press menu, advanced (i think), and make sure your wifi band is set to auto. Try 2.4ghz and 5ghz only as well.

I'm rooted. My build is IMM76D.T999UVALEM. I've never flashed, modded or update anything on the phone... except, well, the root procedure with the toolkit. I didn't make a backup of a previous rom. Also I never installed anything WiFi-related.
I booted into Recovery, wiped cache and dalvik and still doesn't work. I tried 2.4ghz and 5ghz wifi bands and nothing.
I will try to reflash the stock rom and see what happens, in the meantime I'll download MrRobinsons root66 version of UVALH2 and if the stock doesn't work, I install MrRobinson's and I'll tell you.
Thanks for you answer.
I hopw what I tell you so far serves you to help me... in the meantime I'll do the ROMs flashing.
Just fyi, MrRobinsons root66 version is the stock build only it is pre-rooted.
He has both UVALEM and UVALH2 versions.
UVALEM is the original out of the box build.
UVALH2 is the official updated build.
I would recommend updating regardless, and in your case it may be your best bet. I leave it up to you if you want to try root66 or not, but ive used it quite a few times and its always worked well for me.

Hey, I just installed the T889UVALL4 update, which fixes the Exynos exploit. I had my phone rooted before the update but then I had to UNroot it to even install or to see the update. So I wanted to know if I can still root with the same method as I did before using Odin and install CWM recovery with out bricking my device.
Unless there's a new root.

I'm sure this is a stupid question, but why can't I roam over to ATT? I have a Tmo value plan (post-paid unlimited) and when I'm in my companies datacenter, my Tmo connection is very poor- to the point where I miss calls and texts sometimes don't come through. I try manually choosing ATT from the provider list but it reports "not registered".
Am I doing something wrong? I should be able to roam over to ATT, right??

Hello -
I'm rooted and I was trying to install a different system font using Font Installer * Root * .
I followed the apps instructions and wound up with a bunch of Korean instead of where I thought the new font should be.
I then tried to re-boot and got stuck at the Samsung screen.
I have since tried to wipe / factory reset and flash the stock rom to no avail.
I have a Nandroid backup I created with Galaxy Note 2 Tool Kit but I don't know hot to re-install it.
Everything stops at the Samsung screen.

UPDATE: It's official -- I'm bricked. After hours of searching these fora it appears I need a Samsung signed stock 4.1.2 rom as I'm getting the "E:Signature verification failed" error and teshxx's ROM doesn't appear to be signed (is that correct?)

I am on TWRP 2.6.1.0 as well.
I install the rom only no gapps or anything extra and let it boot and see what happens.
I know it may not be poss now but you could try taking out your ext-sd card and simm card and boot just from the internal drive.
I don't know that it would help but it can't hurt and it reduces variables.

If you have tried a differnt version of TWRP and differnt 4.3 roms all on a clean install, I don't know what else to recommend.

Hey i have the exact same problem! idk what happened, it's fine on 4.1.2 but right when i update to 4.2.2, not even 4.3 it does the exact same thing! any devs have any ideas? idk if a logcat will help in this case
why not just use another recovery like cwm and see if it works with that one.

You need completely wipe everything in order to flash a 4.3 ROM for the first time some times.

I did a full wipe. but nothing. Even now install the rom Cyanogenmod11
and only get to change language but then freezes and reboots. I was very excited because I thought that had already been arranged until he gave me the error. dont know what else to do to upgrade my phone!

try another board that had saved because it has the USB damaged. try to set you up for the 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4 and also gave me freeze and reboot. and wipe everything very well. I can not be!. but a problem has to see. do not know if I can be my navigation buttons are damaged (broken wire). believe you can be what makes my phone restart?
I had this issue i just updated my twrp. Maybe you should download TWRP from a different source? Maybe the one you have is corrupted or something . IDK try everything.
this doesn't help any, just wanted to confirm the same issue. Anytime I flash ROM above 4.1.2 on this phone it crashes in some way. any custom ROM

i think i messed up.

i'm sure people post stuff about this all the time, but as of right now i'm stuck in TWRP with no OS, and none of the ROMs i'm trying to use are working at all. i've tried cyanogen, and a couple other random ones i found here, and absolutely nothing is working. could anyone maybe PM me or something and help me through this i have no idea where i went wrong.

I have to ask a preliminary question. What is your boot loader (is it the lastest (4.3))? If your bootloader IS not the latest then there are many ways to "start fresh" by flashing the Stock Rom in ODIN. Ill wait for your reply and guide you further.

Quite honestly I dont know how to check from the recovery but which version of stock were you on? 4.3? 4.1.2?

I also feel that you can wipe you data, internal data, system, cache and dalvik (which will delete everything) and then push the correct roms and gaaps thorough ABD so you wouldnt need to go back to stock

okay... I have an easy solution for you on how to get your phone back to working condition but thats only if you have the older boot loader. If you flash the stock rom and you have the updated boot loader (that comes with 4.3) your phone will hard brick. If your willing to take the risk I can guide you further.

Okay, from everything you've said here is the best solution that has the least percent of messing up.
Follow everything carefully and you should be good as new!
Boot into TWRP
Wipe DATA/FACTORY RESET
Wipe CACHE
Wipe DALVIK
Format SYSTEM
MOUNT your internal storage to the computer
***TAKE BACKUP OF PICTURES, ETC. from internal storage***
DELETE everything in the internal storage once you take backup, if needed
*** Based on your phone model and everything else I did most of the work and found the correct links, if you dont trust them search CM and 4.3 Gaaps and download them ***
COPY Stable rom to internal storage - here is cyanogenmod 10.2.1 stable for ATT i747: https://download.cyanogenmod.org/get/jenkins/57775/cm-10.2.1-d2att.zip
COPY Gaaps zip to internal storage - here is PA gaaps 4.3: http://www.mediafire.com/download/n2a7nta3jrj1ltk/pa_gapps-modular-mini-4.3-20131024-signed.zip
UNMOUNT internal storage
Flash CM
Flash Gaaps
Clear CACHE
Clear DALVIK
Reboot! You should be good to go

I said internal storage cause then you can also clear it and delete any junk files left behind. Once again I am not too familiar with TWRP and if you are able to flash zips straight from external storage, thats also fine.
ALSO look at other person posting a few replies ahead of mine, He has a way to check if you have 4.3 or not. If you didn't have 4.3 then you can flash back to stock easily and start from there instead of flashing a CUSTOM rom.

Did you start in OE1 build? If you wiped system and don't have a nandroid backup, look in development section for Noterized Stable 2 and flash that in recovery. If you don't have custom recovery or root, you can still use Odin for root and recovery tars.
If you haven't rooted or flashed stock recovery, a battery pull or factory reset may get you going again on stock. I'd wait for the next OTA if that is the case. Can't say when OTA is coming but since the last update wasn't supported with a tar, it should be forthcoming.
If no, Odin should give a failure. Did it complete with a success message? A tell here is a message stating something to the effect of aboot not authorized; shortened in parenthesis.

Mmhmm. Giving the title to your post that you did and the fact that the frustration alone with Android wants you to venture to Apple, it seems that an iPhone would be your best option. Id go with the 6 Plus, personally(on my deathbed of course), but you mentioned the iPhone 5, so I stuck with the 5 also in my reply.
I got alliance rom running. I am done messing with my note 4.
I unrooted oe1 easily
I am having the same issue. I was on stock rooted with TWRP recovery. I tried switching over to stock deodexed and have got nothing but boot loops it doesn't even go past the note 4 screen. I've since tried using odin to put the stock rom on and everything fails. I can not flash zips either I've been doing all clean installs. Any ideas as to how I can get my phone working again?

@Chubby19865 got Alliance working. I believe its either that or Noterized youll have to flash until either another OTA or .tar comes out.
You have the same issue I did. What i did was i flashed the ob7 modem via odin. I also install philz cwm, since i couldn't transfer files with twrp. I also made a backup with cwm before i did everything. For you, you should flashed bob7 modem and wipe and install alliance rom. That's what i did.

You cant go down that route in the situation youre in. Flash just the Modem, not the entire firmware, then flash the Alliance rom.
Im happily on NK2 after not being impressed with Lollipop(well-named IMO, it does suck indeed), so i cant speak on the TWRPvsCWM for recovery and file transfer chubby mentioned.
I flashed the modem it went through but I am still getting boot loops.

Are you waiting long enough? If i remember correctly, the lollipop roms can take anywhere from 10-15 on first boot.
Only thing i can suggest is a Battery Pull, Wipe, Flash Modem, Wipe, Flash Alliance.

Maybe that's what @Chubby19865 was referring to when he used Philz recovery?
That project is no longer updated but apparently still works. I think it was gotten from this link but use at your own risk. A confirmation would be nice.

Ditto on the wait reply. What do you see with TWRP flash and initial boot?
Uncharted waters for us trying to help not on the OE1 blues but the custom lollipop ROMs have to optimize and start the dalvik-cache directory with art dex files.

Apparently this needs to be placed on your SD and flash that? Still searching for a more defined "process of steps"
FYI... TWRP was mentioned, so if youre using philz(cwm) id use TWRP for that process. Lemme pilfer some more.

You've already covered half of what @Chubby19865 suggested.
What's left? Odin Philz CWM Recovery, CWM nandroid backup (if system wasn't already wiped). Wipe and flash Alliance.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=61667056&postcount=10
To my recollection, there's only two users that posted success in flashing anything but Noterized.
@DreamingWolf was the other I recall. He primarily used an old OB7 nandroid to get back. But from all reading and recollection, Odin stock tars remain broken for OE1 OTA update. Without a tar to fall back on, that's a sad place to be.

Ok.. i need to go on a beer run, this is most annoying not being able to assess the situation from your side of things or id be able to give you step by step instructions. Try flashing Noterized in the meantime though instead of deodexed stock. Ill be back shortly.
