Flashed A705FNXXU3ASI2 firmware and now storage shows only 32GB - Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers

As title says, I flashed firmware version number PDA A705FNXXU3ASI2 and CSC A705FNOJM3ASI2 from sammobile and now my storage appears to be only 32GB instead of 128GB. How do I fix that?
edit:
I thought the problem was because I flashed the wrong firmware but it seems to be because of magisk.
I first flashed original firmware for my region. The storage correctly shows a capacity of 128GB. Then I copied the AP to my phone, used Magisk Manager 7.3.4 to patch AP file with Magisk 19.3 and then rebooted. After that, there is only 32GB available...
I didn't install Magisk canary version, because last time I did I got a corrupted AP file. Maybe it's fixed in canary?

Reflash correct files.

EDIT: mea culpa, I was trying to flash A7 firmware instead of A70
I tried to flash again files for my region (spain) but i'm getting the following error:

turn of your phone completely. Press power+vol up till you see recovery mode. Select factory reset(something like this but I am sure it says factory reset). This will delete al your user data and format your phone. And you'll see your storage as 128gb.

This will reset to factory...if he flashed a7 it will just return to a7..he need to flash correct files through odin. Go donwload mode and flash it again. Fingers crossed that it will work.

I dont know but I didn't see the post that he says he flashed a7. I said this about a70 firmware because he firstly flashed a70. If he wouldnt try to flash again, factory reset wpuld fix the storage problem. Now as you said, I think he just needs to download and flash correct files.

Download from here

firmware working for me

Hey. Thank you for your answer. Yes I tried to flash a7 firmware by mistake but the process was stopped by an error. Now I first flashed the correct firmware and had 128GB but after patching the AP file with magisk (stable) I'm again with only 32GB. As I can't change the thread title I opened a new one.

just enter to recovery and select factory reset as I told you above. this will fix 32gb issue.

Hello, I have the same problem on an S10 +, because for the restoration of the factory system it goes back to 128gb, but I lose the root, if I keep the root it only identifies 32gb, I believe it is a problem with Magisk.

Hey guys,
The GT-N7100 of my friend does not boot.It is stuck at the first screen ( Black screen with samsung galaxy note II gt-n7100).

Thanks in advance

well flash philz recovery via odin
untick "autoreboot" in odin. Once flash is done, keep pressing power button until it reboots (normally will go to recovery)
when in recovery, if you choose option "reboot system now" and you get "yes - disable flash recovery", select that option to avoid stock recovery overwriting cwm
now proceed with wipe and after flashing rom ,fix permission and wipe cache and dalvic cache twice then reboot

I wanted to try this, but this download contains just one file. Even if I extract the tar, there are not the files included which are discribed in the thread...
quite strange....
I simply cant flash anything with Odin. Odin says success, but nothing happened to the phone. I didnt read something about people who are having the same issue
This drives me mad .....

well its not sds for sure so it seems either recovery has gone corrupted as,the pit file u said is not required though u can find it here to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1896696 post 4 no4 pit file16gb
but i would suggest you to try the recovery thing as mentioned in the link as see as the one i mentioned is used when it does not enter recovery try this version http://d-h.st/vCc
keep the power button pressed it should enter recovery leave the power button when u see samsung logo
I did it long time back so dont remember exactly whether to keep pressing power button or to hold power button worked for me as auto reboot was not working for me so did the other way round as mentioned to you

Im glad to hear that it is not sds.
I tried to flash the recovery of your link:
If I leave the phone connected if I press the power button after flashing just the battery symbol apears after a while.
If I disconnect the phone, it tries to boot normal...no recovery...
If I tap on the power button again and again nothing happens.....
If I try to boot into recovery with the 3 button combo there is still the old clockwork recovery.
I also tried to do a emergency recovery with kies. Kies does download all the files and when it starts to flash it gets stuck at 0 % and sais phone is not connected in the right way but it is...
In Odin mode the phone displays
custom binary downloads : Yes ( 1 counts)
But did flash the recovery at least 3 times ...So why does it still display 1

do u have kies installed when u trying odin if yes then delete it just install the samsung drivers nothing else and disable your antivirus too.
orelse u may try
thats quite strange ok now its time to try the mskip tool just delete all old samsung drivers and kies
and start fresh from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1923956
and as far as the count in concerned its 1 as you were only able to enter recovery once thats why after that u were not able to so as many times u enter custom recovery the count increases

i would say no until there is an error which shows no pit partition found but after the above steps if it does not then u can give it a fresh start flash the pit first then the firmware . check youtube as how to do it there are vidoes described on how to flash pit and then the firmware.
i would suggest not to do something which you are not sure of and land urself in other issues though flashing pit and firmware is fine but i am not sure about the bootloader maybe u can ask in that specific thread , keten might be the best person to guide you in that case if its safe

Reinstall Complete Stock firmware using Odin & then root
Hi..
Looks like you have got boot loop for while trying to root your phone.
Don't worry.. now you need to reinstall the stock firmware on your device.
just follow the following steps:
1- Boot in recovery by pressing volume up, home button & power button simultaneously
2- go to mounts & storage & then..format system first, then format data & finally format cache
3- Now go back to the main menu of your recovery & do format data/factory reset then format cache & then go to advanced & wipe dalvik cache
4- Download your devices stock firmware from here http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/ ..select your device model & country & download the file...latest firmwares are on top.
5- extract the .zip file you just downloaded & you will get a file with extension .tar.md5
6- Now Boot your device into download mode by pressing Volume down button, home button & power button simultaneously.
7- Launch Odin(v 3.07) now..u can download the attached file. (If the device is detected it will show the COM:# in the ID Com field.)
8- Select the PDA tab & browse & select the firmware file you just extracted.
9- Odin will take a while & finally it will display the message something like checking md5 finished successfully
10- click on the start button & sit back & relax...this may take upto 8 minutes..
11- Unplug the phone after flashing is complete & let the phone boot..
12- Now you will have stock recovery, if you want you will need to flash a custom recovery again.
13- Boot in download mode again & select the PDA tab & browse for the chainfire auto root file (download it from here http://download.chainfire.eu/264/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-t03g-t03gxx-gtn7100.zip )
14- extract the file & select this file from the PDA tab in ODIN & click the Start button.
15- let the flashing complete & the phone will display the recovery mode screen again & it will root the device.
16- However after booting the device you might not be able to open the superuser app.
17- To fix this go to play store & update your SuperSu app & then launch it & then it will ask you to disable Knox & select Yes.
18- Congratulations...your device is now rooted.
Hit thanks if i helped you..Let me know if you face any issues... :good:

try out the steps i have mentioned above in my post..i have also attached the Odin v3.07 & clockwork recovery ver 6 files..
for clcockwork recovery you need to extract the .zip file & you will get a .tar file which you can flash using the PDA tab in odin
this wont take more than 15 minutes & as you will wipe everything you will lose all your apps & contacts..but the data on your internal sd card should remain untouched..
Hello @JukkaP,if you take mk9 you have to decompress it to have 4 files after:
open odin and put
bootloader in the 1st case,2sd ap,3t phone,4th csc
phone in download mod
connect it to the pc
you will have "added"
clic on "start" and wait
phone will reboot after flash
---EDIT----
No question is stupid

[Q] Tab pro 12.2 stuck in bootloop

Hi everyone!
My Galaxy tab pro (SM-T900) is stuck in bootloop. More precisely I can see the first Samsung galaxy tab pro screen but it restart before the samsung animation.
The tab was initially with official rom rooted with CF-Auto-Root-v2wifi-v2wifixx.
I have already tried several things without significative improvement.
At first I tried to reinstall with Kies. Kies says my version is: PDA:NB5/CSC:NB2 (XEF). But after the window asking to reboot in download mode kies stops saying my device can not be recovered. I have read it could be due to a discrepancy of CSC or things like that between Kies and the Tab.
Recovery mode says:
Odin mode
Product name: SM-T900
Current binary: Official samsung
System status: Custom
KNOX waranty void: 1
RP SWREV: A1
My Knox flag was turned to 1 and I don't know how to set System status back to official.
I have also downloaded the stock ROM XEF from Sammobile and flashed it with odin 3.09. The process goes smoothly but the tab doesn't boot.
Even after a wipe (data/factory reset and cache) in recovery mode.
In recovery mode I could not install Cyanogenmod or other Zip files. The process stop during the package verification and says:
E:footer is wrong
E:signature verification failed
I flashed a TWRP 2.8 to try with a different recovery but again the Zip are not installed.
Have you any idea or any direction to investigate?
Thank you
If ur tab is US version then u have to flash XAR(cellular south) available through sammobile through odin and then let tab update itself after reboot. U will loose root

Actually my tab is from France so XEF version is the most adapted.
I think flashing a different version would be rejected. Right?
Yes it can brick too

You can flash any ROM as long as it is for SM-T900. The builds may have different apps, keyboards, and WiFi connectivity can be an issue due to WiFi channels being slightly different for each region.
The thing is that flashing zip in recovery mode leads to the error: footer is wrong.
Is there any log file I could read to find where the boot process loops?
If dodo99x is right u can flash xar version which is for usa and flash it through odin

I tried to flash XAR and XAC stock roms but Odin return a Fail with the following log:

As tar.md5 files doesn't have exactly the same size, I wonder if it is necessary to check Re-partition in Odin.
Never ever touch repartition. Super dangerous if you don't have the correct .pit file to recreate them. Those sound like bad downloads. You can also try to use a different usb cable and usb port on your pc.
I have successfully downloaded and installed the last rom stock revision for France: T900XXUANI1_T900XEFANI2_XEF
But I'm still stucked in Bootloop.
Other versions (XAR and XAC) still fail.
How can I get the PIT file for SM-T900?
As I can see and copy files with TWRP, is there any log file I should check to see what is wrong?
I would try wiping cache, sytem, dalvik, data and internal storage in twrp, then reinstall the france image file in Odin. This will of course erase all data you have on the tablet, but it should take you out of your bootloop. I have yet to see any valid PIT files for the SM-T900, or SM-P900. If you mess with the partitions without one, you won't even be able to flash anything in Odin afterwards.
No problem for the personnal data. I just would like to recover my tab.
I have wiped all the internal partitions: Dalvik, cache, system, internal data.
I have reboot in download mode and launched a flash of the T900XXUANI1_T900XEFANI2_HOME.tar.md5 with Odin 3.09
I also used voodoo magic!
But still the bootloop
I think the problem comes from an other partition not flashed with this process.
What other partitions are used to start Android?
Is there any log file to check?
Very unusual... try flashing cm11 for SM-T900 via TWRP. Will that one boot?
No The Cyanogen ROM doesn't boot either.
I'm still looking deeper in the boot process to identify the problem.
While I was reading this: http://en.miui.com/thread-15659-1-1.html
I just realized that the misc partition was absent from my tab.
I create an empty one and reflashed a stock rom but it doesn't solve the boot problem.
What files are usualy inside misc? Where can I find a copy of them?
At this point I would just get Samsung to fix it. Unless you can find a PIT file for ODIN...
Even with Knox value to 1 and custom Rom/kernel/recovery?
Do you think Samsung will reset my tab in those conditions?
By the way, when I look in the Boot folder with TWRP file manager, I don't see any file. The boot partition indicates an occupied size of 8Mo.
Where are those files? How can I acces to them?
Knox warranty has nothing to do with your hardware warranty. Just reflash stock rom via ODIN and send it back. Tell them you can't get it to boot, and that's it.
Do u know if u have usb debugging enabled. Maybe try booting into rom after complete wipe of all. It will probably sit on sam logo and will not boot due to no firmware and wait for few minutes and restart into download mode and flash correct firmware from sammobile. I did this in my old galaxy s 2 long long ago and it worked.

Hi,
Just a short feedback.
I finally succeed to finish the restoring process of Kies but it didn't fixed my bootloop and the Download mode indicated:
Current binary: Samsung official
System status: Custom
Knox warranty void: 0x1
I decided to return the device to Samsung (France).
3 weeks after: tadaam! Everything was fixed. Samsung changed my motherboard and battery.
No charge and no warranty void due to knox or rom modification.
I am so released
... I am now looking for a way to root the device without triggering knox
Is triangle away working with SM-T900?

To fix this try
Advanced wipe with everything ticked except recovery then try to flash zip without reboot.
Helped me on the footer issue and if this succeeds you should be able to boot.
Hope that helps

Looking for a debrick.img for Android 5.1.1

Is anyone able to point me in the right direction or is willing to make one?
The i747 does not have a stock 5.1.1 rom; therefore, there is no debrick image for a 5.1.1 rom.
What bootloader is on the phone? Did any of the images from the debrick thread boot the phone?
Does installing 5.1 change your bootloader?
As in Cyanogenmod 12.1?
Softbricked my S3, and I'm not sure which way to attempt to recover/debrick & would appreciate any advice.
SGH I747 (ATT)
rooted 2 years ago just after 4.3 OTA updated, flashed with CM 11.
Had that on there for almost a year, got bored & installed carbonrom.
Beginning of december, flashed CM 12.1.
A week ago it got stuck on the boot logo.
Still able to get into both Recovery & download modes.
Clockwork mod 6.0.4.7
trying to flash from a new image or wipe & factory restore both give me
Code:
detected file system ext4 for /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system
patching unconditionally
E: error in /storage/sdcard1/cm-12.1-201511117-sna[status 0] installation aborted
trying to use Odin, it gives me

<ID:0/003> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

The info on the download screen is
Code:
odin mode
product name: sgh-i747
custom binary download: yes (6 counts)
current binary: custom
system status: custom
qualcomm secureboot: enable
warranty bit: 1
bootloader ap swrev: 2
My guess from another thread is that the /system and /data partitions are not wiped properly, causing those partitions to be formatted with read-only (R/O) permissions rather than read-write (R/W)? But those files are definitely not right for my phone, so what now?
Use twrp to as cwm is out of date. Once on twrp, you can try flashing cm12.1 again.
Flashing a custom rom via twrp does not touch the bootloader or modem.
Do not flash any files via Odin as doing so could result in a hard brick. Once the phone is on a 4.3 or newer bootloader, Odin cannot be used.

Good to know.
Thanks.
But how do I get twrp onto the phone?
was actually trying to put twrp on with odin, but that's not working.
The downloads I've seen are for:
app-phone doesnt boot
odin- aint working
TWRP Install - Requires TWRP 2.8.4 or higher already installed
dd Install Method - oh, didn't see that one. I'll try that & let you know.:laugh:
---------- Post added at 06:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:16 AM ----------
well, I'm not figuring it out....
As per the twrp page, tried: dd if=/sdcard/twrp-2.8.7.0-d2att.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18
file not found error
tried: dd if=/storage/sdcard1/twrp-2.8.7.0-d2att.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18
file not found error
did ls (hey it's like linux!)
got possible locations: external_sd, sd-ext, sdcard, also looked under mnt.
file not found error
cd'ed & ls'ed to /storage/sdcard1/ there it frickken is!
ran the command there, sans path, and still get file not found error
arrrrgh.
Try this:
1) download Odin 3.07 from here: https://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j...07763241,d.dmo
2) download the tar version of TWRP 2.8.7.0 from here: https://dl.twrp.me/d2att/
3) download the latest cm12.1 for the phone from here ( http://www.cmxlog.com/12.1/d2att/) and save it to a micro SD card;
4) download the version of cm12.1 gapps you want from here (https://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps) and save it to the same sd card where you saved CM12.1;
5) place the micro SD card into the phone;
6) boot the phone into download mode;
7) open Odin 3.07 and uncheck everything except f. reset time;
8) click on PDA and browse to the tar TWRP file and select it;
9) connect the phone and it should show up as a com port in Odin;
10) flash TWRP;
11) when you see the word RESET in the status window, remove the USB cable, remove the battery, replace the battery, use the button combination to get into recovery which should now be TWRP;
12) perform a full wipe of system, data, and cache;
13) flash CM12.1 and gapps from the micro SD card;
14) reboot and enjoy
very detailed response, thanks. I've tried most of that, as some thread I was reading said that twrp probably has the capability to fix the issue, and CWM definitely doesn't.
Odin never really does anything, though. How long should I wait?
This step is the one I haven't done "7) open Odin 3.07 and uncheck everything except f. reset time;" Just left everything alone the multiple times I tried. Hopefully that'll make a difference.
Tried 3.07, 3.09, 3.10.6. I'll try again.
By default in Odin 3.07, only auto reboot and f reset time are checked.
What do you mean when you say Odin does nothing? Does the phone appear as a com device in Odin? Are there error messages in Odin during the flash process?
never gives anything other than:

not at a windows computer for a couple days. stuck on linux mint with no internet. has heimdall & adb, though....
have twrp img & tar, cm12.1, and gapps on the sdcard.
All I can suggest is to try and get access to a pc or try VMware with win7.
Tried again last night for about 12 hours, no response from Odin.
Decided to give jtag a shot.
Contacted the jtag guy & gave him all the above info.
He says
"Unfortunately there are many indicators that your phone has a hardware failure.... Most likely a failed emmc memory chip.
1) the phone getting stuck on boot logo for no reason.
2) Odin not flashing...
3) files not found or... Not being able to do.
These are all indicators that the emmc memory chip is toast...... The biggest clue is finding the phone stuck on boot logo... Out of nowhere for no reason.
Jtag would not be able to fix it.
Thank you"
:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
Thanks for the help.
Might sell the remains.
16G I747 blue, normal wear & tear, small chip in one corner, the case covers it.
2 stock batteries
1 7800mah best4power battery
1 otterbox defender modified to hold extended battery without the turtleback
any offers?
i suggest trying on a Windows machine before giving up. I am not convinced the memory is damaged.
That was on a windows machine...
Odin recognizes the phone but it won't flash twrp? Have you tried different USB cables and USB ports?

first they ask: whats a kdz file?
their answer: We don't make those thing you need the official lg tools to update your device firmware....so we cant help you...
Me: I am extremely pissed now since they are lying to me & then I showed them a link from their server to DOWNLOAD a kdz file firmware for another device that I had....
their answer: we dont know what you are talking about...sorry we can't help you!
I even went to my nearby metropcs store & explained to him what happen...
first. he didn't understand the following:
1-bootloader
2. boot image
3. recovery mode
4. download mode
5. kdz firmware
6. bricked & softed-bricked
the f-cking guy told me I can't do anything, but "report my phone lost or stolen" so I can get a new one....
How the hell are these idiots getting jobs when they have NO IDEA what to do on how to fix a phone
My level of anger is now over 9000.....

Samsung Note II GT-N7100. Not sure what the problem is.

Hello, after using the LineageOS for 2 weeks without any problems today my phone restarted on his own and got stuck in Note II logo, I was able to get into Downlaod mod and also in TWRP recovery. But I am not able to do anything inside TWRP, can't install new ROM, can't wipe partitions, can't select storage (shows 0MB) to restore. Tried to flash stock firmware with ODIN, but always fails. Tried everything I was able to find using Google.
I will be so grateful if you can help me. Thank you.

Try changing the file system to ext4 for every partition possible. You'll loose all your data including songs,images etc.
If this dont work, try formatting the internal storage

When I try to change the file system or format the storage I am getting "Unable to mount storage" error. Also when I choose "Wipe" from TWRP and choose partition to change the file system I get:

The sboot.bin file is the bootloader.
It's not flashing because the ROM is not for the phone, the bootloader on the phone is newer than the bootloader in the ROM, or Odin needs the original Samsung USB cable.
The model number in download mode is gt-n7100?

Yes, the model in downlaod mode is GT-N7100, but I am not using the original cable of my Note II, odin does not detect my phone with it at all, so I am using other Samsung phone original cable.
Does Odin detect the phone with the Samsung cable?
You are using the latest stock rom?

Dont wipe from advanced wipe.. wipe from the screen where you choose 'advanced wipe' option. I right of advanced wipe button there is format data button .. do that .... It may helps as mine got the same problem two times and solution was different for both
I tried both, the factory reset and the format, still getting the "Unable to mount storage".
I think Odin detects the phone, it goes yellow or blue (depending on the version). And even with the pit file I get stuck at "Get pit for mapping".
