Its 2:30 in the morning. Its been all day. I dont come to ask a question on XDA unless i literally cannot for the life of me find the answer anywhere else on the whole of google.
For me, whether someone can help me here will make or break me writing off android as the worst operating system ever made, and moving back to iPhone full time.
Ill cut it short. I've owned PLENTY of android devices. All rooted and rommed and modded to my hearts content. Recently traded my i5 for a Galaxy Note 2- i317 AT&T. Rooted first night and running jedi xp14 ever since. Loved it.
Earlier today im jamming to some music with my new Monster Inspirations that i got brand new for half off (great deal). Phone reboots. Comes back. It has a circle with a slash across it (cancel sign) where my signal used to be. Im looking through settings when it reboots again. I soon realize every set amount of time (about 87 seconds) it just crashes and reboots. Flash a different rom. No signal. Reboots. Go back to old rom. Same problem. Attempt clockworkmod restore. No md5sum (it says mismatch.... Clockworkmod recovery is the most POS, stupid, moronic recovery have ever witnessed in my life. the status 7 fails and no ability to say F**K IT, IDC about md5sum JUST FLASH IT BECAUSE THIS IS AN EMERGENCY is just plain ignorant development.) I cant restore. I cant flash a different rom. No one i know knows what to do. No one on the internet seems to have the same problem. I could lose my job if i dont have a fully functioning phone by tomorrow with email and call capabilities.
I have no idea how to use odin aside from when i rooted my note 2 as i cant actually find a guide for it. i have a mame0142.zip thats apparently a AT&T modem i can flash and might save the day. I have no idea how to use it. I'm expected to know everything about everything. No begnngers guides. Im also out of state, in Florida, and now without a phone. Luckily i have a laptop, so i might have a chance at this. This is actually an emergency. I literally cannot sleep tonight until i know my phone is going to be working tomorrow. If its not i'll be driving over it with my Beetle and going to buy an i5 because i can't wait. I need my phone for my job. Also i have a lot of respect for the people of XDA, but please don't call me stupid, tech illiterate, a sheep, or blind because i would rather switch to Apple then have my phone have a critical failure from listening to Mixzing.
I feel like flashing the stock At&T i317 Modem/ Radio will fix the problem. Anyone who knows wher ei can find that and then what to do with that once i get it would greatly be appreciated.
I've no idea what caused this or how to fix it. I really, really, really dont care what has to be done, but my phone NEEDS to work by tomorrow.I dont care what rom/kernel/ anything it has to run to get it back to working, because if i cant get it fixed it's just going right in the trash. ANY help would be appreciated. I really don't want to spend money right now.
Thank you for your time reading my problem.

Thanks, it's certainly better then nothing. If it works its good enough for me. I can always re-root it later. My phones so glitched it still may not work though. Ill update if this works or not. Thanks again.

Im not seeing anything here thats going to do anything for me aside from flash a stock rom, and its not going too smoothly either. Can you send me a link to the stock Modem/ Radio as well? it seems like thats the big issue.

Awesome, thank you. now, I havent seen a good thread on what exactly you do with a Modem, or at least not one for a beginner. Can i flash it from CWM same as a kernel or rom or is this something that needs special treatment on a computer or something?
That modem is CWM/TWRP flashable. A good check is normally to open up the zip if it has a META-INF its normally a CWM file. If it has a .pda ect its an odin file

And please try not to judge android too harshly ...
The note 2 is an excellent device....and worthy of the credits it receives...
The beauty is it's simplicity....
After all ....you've managed to take a borked up device and flash the entire OS in minutes...
A feat that you couldn't dream of with apple...
Well done...and happy flashing...g

Ok, here's a head scratcher (but then again, I have lice lol). Anyhow, Im having problems with my "new" SPH-L700. My last Sprint Gnex ate itself, and now Im not sure Im pretty safe in assuming Im on Stock. But Im not sure why the Toroplus ROMs I download, seem to not want to install. The only thing that DID stick was I corrected the radios as when it was given to me, it had two different radios so Im on 4.2.1 GA02 and they both match now. Im fully rooted (confirmed by Root Checker Pro) reset, and everytime Ive tried to install any ROMs they send my poor little andy on his back with a mean old red triangle coming out his poor belly. and the info tells me that the file is bad. Ive tried this with at least 3-4 ROMS and it's the same result.
Any and all help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Black out your IMEI. Or just delete the status screenshot; it's unnecessary. Are you using a custom recovery? What recovery and what version? What ROMs are you trying to flash? If you unzip the ROM what happens? Do any have md5sums?

Thank you for the info. I think it's done.
Im using CWM v. 6.0.3.6
Ive tried the new PAC-MAN 4.3, codename Android, Carbon & AOKP the closest thing I can come across that's close to an mdnsnd found that in AOKP and Carbon. Ive since deleted codename and Carbon Is there any other info you need? Im not a developer or anything. Never really had many problems once I got the hang of it. Usually I can figure it out, but this has gotten me conf*ckulated
Thanks,
Ridge
Oh yeah, sorry, when I try to install it, I get a bunch of mumbo jumbo that basically says its a (bad) file and it aborts the install.
Unzip one of the ROMs. What do you see? Folders? Files?
By md5sum I mean, do the ROM devs provide a md5sum? The purpose is to hash your downloaded copy and make sure it matches the dev's version.
I'm asking both questions to figure out whether the downloads are corrupt.

Im sorry I didnt get back to you sooner, I fell asleep. I cant rest til I know my baby (yes, I said it LOL), is all squared away. So usually I just pass out from exhaustion.
Anyway, when I try to install any of those ROMS i get this:
Finding update package...
Opening update package..
E: can't open /sdcard/o/then the name of the rom.zip
(bad)
Installation aborted.
Then that's all she wrote. Im SO glad I remembered to do a backup before I started messing with my phone THIS time. (I forget a lot of times).
Ive checked all three of my ROMS, and I dont find any md5sums in any of them. It's very strange that either my computer would either corrupt or download 3 ROMS that I feel are usually pretty reliable. I DO however, have a "hash" .txt file in my phone's program. Might that be the trouble? Or is that supposed to be there when I root? Crazy SH*T man. I dunno. I thank you SO very much for all your help. This is quite frustrating. What's a dummy to do? LOL. If I came off snappy to you in my last post, it wasnt meant to be that way. I was just wondering if there was anymore info i could help you with. Im not so good with words sometimes, and I come off as an ass. I AM very appreciated of all your time and help. Doesnt seem like anyone in here really likes to help, and I get a bit cranky when I ask a question in a thread in here and I get made fun of instead of getting any help. So I really am glad for all your time and effort
Thanks so very much,
Ridge
P.S. I always forget all youve asked me... When Ive unzipped all the ROMs, I have folders that have TONS of files in them.

I've done that 3 times so now this time I get my send dates telling me that I sent stuff on the 31st of December 1969. I don't get it. I am in stock right now. Maybe I should just Odin toroplus instead of just staying in stock? Im just going nutso here, trying everything I can think of starting over from scratch every time. Eesh! But PLEASE keep the suggestions coming, hoping to get this damn thing done right.

What Rom did you install the stock 4.4 zdk or the sphinx 4.4 flashable Rom?
_________________
Beavers & Ducks!
i flashed the sphinx 4.4 flashable Rom idk why it installed a recovery with it couldnt see sd card then when tried flashing another e980 rom it wouldnt let me said i had the wrong device or something idk im pissed about to smash it
_________________
Beavers & Ducks![/QUOTE]
i was on a cwm before but it ended up flashing a new one and thats when i started having problems now no recovery stuck at lg logo and i know my battery is low
The first thing I would do is pull your battery, wait a few minutes, put the battery back in and connect the charging cable. It may not want to boot but it will charge the battery while the phone is off. Get your battery charged first, then worry about getting it up and running again.
Keep in mind I'm not picking at you or anyone. But why would someone choose to flash a Rom designed for one version to another version? I know our devs make tweaks to allow one to run on the other but it's a chance I wouldn't take. If you have the E980, stick to E980 Roms. It's risky enough flashing Roms as it is because no two devices are the same. You know what I mean? And don't smash you phone. There are many smart people here that can get you up and running again. Smash the phone and you will be upset with yourself later....trust me. I did it and I was pissed at myself later when I found out it was easy to fix....stay calm....lol
i know i knew i should not have idk ive been flashing zips for a very long time guess it happened to still get the best of me even though i read through the thread and i seen a couple e980 users saying it worked haha well not for me i just hope i can get her back up and going soft bricks are ok its when i cant fix this that makes me crazy. slammed around my dual monitors and almost went after my evga build which would not have been good. Man i can not thank u enough i even had to make another account my old one was lows10 and i guess it was inactive for to long but been here since 07 only place i trust to exploit my devices.
Well I'm not the smartest person here. I just got this phone about a month ago and I haven't even got flashing it back to stock down pat yet. It's a work in progress....lol. But just get your battery charged for now. Then you will most likely have to flash it back to stock. I don't know if you have done this process yet on that phone but if you have then you know basically what you need to do. Just don't go flashing any more Roms made for other versions of the g pro....lol
this will be my 3rd time flashing back to stock but with my phone not being read as a e980 i cant get back to stock.
Did you use the Lg Flash Tools method?
Yes lg flash tool has worked perfect until now after that ROM

Ok. Give this method a try....http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2459825....I don't know if it will work for ya as it didn't work for me. But hey, you gotta try something and maybe you will get luck and it will work for you. Give it a go and see what happens.

Tricky bugger it's gonna be ah? Did you try running it in Administrator mode? Be sure to follow the steps exactly as he lays them out.
Well in the left it says lge988at maybe thats why it isnt working with the lg flash? Grrrr idk this sucks and it keeps stopping working and its not in english
It has to be on com 41. I have noticed the lg flash tools method can be hit and miss with allot of people. I finally got it down pat enough to get it to work every time. You could try doing it this way........http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476........He gives a link to a newer lg flash tools. Maybe you will have better results.
damn it still closes with that its right after it gets done loading my phone i guess i cant flash a e988 stock and see if that works? thats what it reads it as right before it closes idk maybe its cause 8.1 but dont think so the app doesnt even open in english idk seems like everyone elses is.
Honestly I don't know why it isn't in English. It is for me but I'm on the stock E980 FW. All I can think is you, somehow, flashed the Korean version of the F240. Just as a precaution I keep a flashable stock 10k on my sd card just in case the need for it arises. But not being able to get into recovery isn't helping your cause here. Keep an eye on the battery as well. If it starts draining down too far just power it off and let it charge more so you don't get so involved with the phone you forget. The problem for me is I'm more of a hands-on person. it's harder for this type of person to walk someone through fixing a gadget.....lol.
An honestly man, I don't know how else to help you. Hopefully someone allot smarter than me is gonna come along any minute now that will know exactly how to fix this issue. All I can suggest now is to keep searching the forum for this type of problem and find a solution. Just don't lose your temper or give up. The solution is here somewhere. I'll search around too. See what I can dig up.
exactly what i thought man ahhh and idk why its not in english either i mean im on my pc there should be no reason for it not to work. Idk I appreciate all your help. havent been in trouble like this since back years and years ago on the old first gen g1 hahahah. and ya flashing the Korean version of the F240 is what i did i really hope there is a way to fix this i had a backup but external sd card quit working so tranfered it on the phone when it still worked flashed back seemed fine went to try flash the e980 baseband and still no good now im just stuck. tempted to try and see if the e988 will work since it wont flash the stock e980 sorry for keep on talking im just going crazy.
It's all good man. I understand your frustration. I have been doing this for a long time now as well. Most of my experience is with moto's and Samsungs. Now I'm learning all over again with another phone myself. But anywho, yeah, give that a try. Flash the e988 if you can. At least if it works you can get into your recovery and sd card to try and flash it back to stock from there and be back on the E980 fw. It's like going around your ass to get to your elbow but hey, if it works who cares right?.....lol. And if you get it working again I suggest putting a flashable stock zip on your sd card just in case. But as I said before, It doesn't help if you cant get into recovery. But when you can it can be a life saver.
I do remember reading there are permission issues if you're running windows 8 or 8.1 on that last method I linked you to. You may want to look into how to overcome that issue and try again. If you haven't already that is.
Hmm at least it says e980 now but can't get past this

1st let me just say I'm not a developer at all just someone who enjoys custom roms as much as everyone else here! I'm not very good at explaining things so please try to bear with me and try to understand this the best you can! If any real developers read this please help us by adding support for our device and if any developers can explain this better please do so! For anyone with the d2lterefreshspr (SPH-L710T Tri-Band) wanting to flash almost any Lollipop Roms made for the d2spr you can flash them! You might 1st have to unzip the rom and go to the updater-script and delete the 1st part where it checks the recoveries build to see if your device is the d2spr or the d2lte and so on. Then repack the rom back into a zip file the flash it in recovery as you normally would. Then once the Rom boots you won't have a baseband or service or anything but I will tell you why and how to fix this. The d2spr's modem-image file are labeled different from our modem! At the bottom of this I will show you the list of each modems links so you can see which 1s are different and what you have to delete and resymlink to get the Rom to reconize your baseband and get your service working! But using a file manager with root access navigate to the files in "/system/etc/firmware/ " and delete the wrongly symlinked modem-images! Once you have done that navigate to "/firmware-mdm/images/" folder and start symlinking the correct files to "/system/etc/firmware/" folder. After this you might want to modify the buid.prop and change all parts that say d2spr to d2lterefreshspr but only if you want. Once you have done this reboot to recovery and flash the Lte apn fix zip then reboot. Now everything should work with service and everything! I have tried this on the latest SlimLP 5.1.1. Beta and A..I.C.P. Lollipop and a few other Lollipop Roms for the d2spr. If you would like to download some of the Roms I have modified the updater-scripts so they will flash on our device and the APN zip I flash with a flashable build.prop I have already modified just send me a message and I will send you a link to my drive account. I'm trying to create a zip we can flash in recovery that will delete the wrong symilinked files and symlink the correct files to help save us the trouble of this process and for people that don't know how to create a symlink file! But as I stated I'm not a developer so I might be able to but if any developers that could help us by creating 1 for us please please feel free to do so and let us know! But take a look at the 2 lists of symlinked files and delete the necessary files and create the new symlinks that our device needs! If the files show the correct symlinks on 1st boot but you still don't have service click on the symlinks and view its details and you will see it'ssymlinked to the wrong files. Just delete all symlinks and create the correct new 1s.

For anyone unsure about creating the symlinks I have a very simple zip file to flash in recovery to delete the bad symlinks and make the right 1s! I have tested on SlimLP, A.I.C.P., Exodusand Pac-Man d2spr Roms. It will not mess up anything on your S3! It only does as stated. If you wanna check it its all in the script-updater. Just flash this after flashing a d2spr Lollipop rom and if you are also confused on modifying the script-updater for the rom so it will flash on the d2lterefreshspr then just flash the TWRP 2.8.7.0 recovery from TWRP's website and you wont have to worry about changing it!

well, come to find out flashing octos, made for triband,,,,who knew, not me until today, anyway, its very easy. haha probably easier than ANYTHING i've done up to this point. i dont remember how much i've told you but the triband that i was fighting with so much may have had a problem from the very beginning. getting into recovery continually got harder and harder until it just wouldn't go. i tried about 8 times and it completely died. i mean its dead.im sad for that. that drops me to one sph-l710 with a crumpled usb and so i have to charge it wirelessly which is cool but its fragile. so ive got another refurb triband which im about to flash. WHY? ill be damned if i know why. this phone is rooted and cleaned out and runs beautifully. but, i want more. i guess or im just stupid which by reading this i may be. ill let you know.

tonight if your not busy with other people ill have some questions for you. im looking forward to it. i loaded the rom, gapps and now theupdate has been in a holding cycle for half an hour. it vibrates a little every so often. so i guess ill let it go. i want in so i can finish setting it up. ive got a lot of work to do. i know you must.
Will this zip work for KK roms too? Or is it only Lollipop? I'm willing to test it out but I just want to be sure that I won't brick my S3 since I can't afford a new phone right now.

Yes it should work and no flashing it wont brick ur device at all! Nothing is flashed or installed it only deletes the wrong symlinks and creates the correct ones!

its about time you showed up again. i thought like these other senior members that once you dealt with the senior citizen with debatable alzheimer's you had fled the country also. hehe man i don't know. on my other triband i had no music at well, no sound at all, none. and i had no cell service. now everything works except the bluetooth on the music. as soon as i boot it up the music locks up. its weird. i was just prepping my phone to go back to stock. i think these tribands are better stock with the bloatware removed and not too much of that. ya, i spend alot of time with my file manager. have you tried total commander? its great. you get it from gizmos freeware. im just getting to know it but i have it on the computer and its pretty good.

I just flashed the final d2lte CM11 snapshot and your zip file, and it worked! After flashing everything the ROM runs super fast and runs wonderfully! So far as I can tell everything works perfectly. Camera, SMS and MMS, GPS, Mobile Data, and Screen Rotation all work perfectly. My steps for flashing were:
Modify Updater-scripts file to remove device checking
Wipe system, dalvik and cache, and data.
Flash CM11 snapshot
Boot to system
Reboot into recovery and flash Gapps and APN fix (I'm on virgin mobile)

I never liked CM myself! I prefer Slim or S.O.K.P. Roms more then any other! You can use alot of the non triband roms kernels and tweaks but just not the bootloaders or modems!

guess what? my second triband died last night. just running, fine. so, went to turn it on and it wouldn't come back on. is there any kind of a reset for the samsungs thAT I DONT KNOW ABOUT? the exact same thing happened with the other triband i had. so i take the phone back to the store and they give me another triband, they said. so i get it home and looked at it and immediately knew that it wasn't a triband. it was the original sph-l710 that i bought", to begin with. these guys dont know what they are selling. id like to complain but to who? this is truly a beautiful phone wit the brushed blue metal look and its one of the "grade A" refurbished phone so i guess maybe i have faith that this one will work.however im a little short on faith right now.
Wow! Good luck man. Honestly, if I had to choose I'd want the original one over the tri-band.

ill tell you what, when it ran it ran very well. so what i want to know is tell me what you would do with this phone rom wise and maybe point me where to go get it. also i need all the stock files in case i have to flash this. this phone is very easy to fix. way easier than the triband but those had the same problem and i didn't know it until they up and died. so, if you have a minute. i've got all rooted. i've got selinux fixed and so, ....what is the latest liquid out there? by the way i watch the tide religiously. have for years. i also just noticed your logo. are you part of octos? ah, i think i saw your name. so i had octos on my triband when it died but i didnt have bluetooth on music. it worked on phone. tell me how to set up octos. man i liked it but i have to have that bluetooth music. how do i fix that?

Since you're not on a triband just flash the d2spr build, not the d2refresh build. You can run xposed on our ROM if you wish. We always recommend a clean flash, especially if coming from stock or any other ROM. Even if its Oct-L to Oct-M. ??
