Hello all,
I recently picked up a used Note 2 att which had a bad charger port. The stock OS was installed and worked with some minor glitches from time to time which was caused by the charger port being broken. I sent it in to Samsung and they said it was BER(beyond economic repair). Before I sent it to them I went to android recovery mode and did a factory reset. I sent it off to them and the phone came back and wont turn on. I believe the OS is completely gone.
I have replaced the charger port by myself, but since I believe the OS is gone and the firmware is messed up the phone isn't recognized in odin mode with my computer. I know the charger port works because I can connect the phone to the charger and take out the battery and the phone still stays on.
I need to reflash the firmware and the stock OS but I don't have Clockwork recovery and I cannot access odin because the charger port isn't recognized. So I need to do this with the stock android recovery.
Anyhelp with this issue would be great. I have been trying to flash things and all I get is verification failed after I try and install from the external sd.
Thank you all.
If you cant get into download mode there's nothing you can do. Next steps would be to either contact a JTAG service to have the firmware flashed, or buy a new motherboard. JTAG is $50 and takes a week. A recommended service is www.mobiletechvideos.com
Hi all,
I'm turning to forums now because I'm desperately in need of help.
I have an Oppo Find 7a which I bought about 9 months ago. When I first got it I tried flashing Cyanogenmod to it (unsuccessfully), and then tried rooting the phone. I have since unrooted the phone, and am running Color OS v 1.2.5i and really really need to update. Problem is, I cannot seem to update the operating system. Here's what happens:
Phone fails to boot to recovery
In my attempts to install Cyanogenmod, I installed a custom recovery. However I couldn't get Cyanogenmod to flash properly, so I tried reverting to the stock recovery. Did that, which seemed to work fine. However, since rooting and unrooting my phone, I cannot boot into reocovery at all. When turning off the phone and then pressing power+volume down to try and boot in, the "OPPO" logo comes up as if trying to boot into recovery, then the phone just turns off and boots into normal OS. Have tried many things but can't seem to get into recovery at all. This means that when an OS update is detected (which it is), the phone tries to reboot into recovery to install the update and cannot. So I'm stuck on a very buggy OS and can't do anything to update. Before you suggest adb+fastboot solutions, please read below:
Phone not recognised in PC at all
When plugging the phone into a PC via usb cable literally nothing happens (aside from the phone detecting it is charging). The phone does not mount as a volume in Windows, the phone is not detected as a device in device manager, as far as the computer is concerned, the phone is not even there. I have tried having the phone plugged in and installing all the proper adb drivers, but this has still yielded no results. And yes USB debugging is definitely enabled on the phone. I don't know why, but for some reason I literally cannot plug my phone into a PC anymore which limits me a LOT in terms of fixing the problem above.
Basically I really need to update the OS on this phone and am compeltely stuck: nothing seems to work. Can anyone help me out here. What do I need to do?? Any help is greatly appreciated.
seem adb device in windows device manager when the phone plug USB at bootloader?
if yes, you can use adb+fastboot solution
Hello,
I have a massive problem with my device. As soon I plug my phone to an USB cable, it immediately crashes. I could charge it when I turnt off my phone tho, but my PC would not recognise my device. I have a custom ROM installed (Havoc OS) and haven't updated it since a year. I thought there's a problem with my charging port and I went to a repair service, but the guy told me the port is fine, it must be a problem with the custom rom. Unfortunately I can't flash a stock firmware on it or reset it to fix the problem, as I cannot connect it to my PC and install TWRP. Is there anything I can do, to remove the custom rom I have installed? When I do a factory reset, it stays. I already tried to install USB drivers, root it with kingroot (it didn't work) to use flashify or something like that. I don't know what to do anymore. Do you guys have any suggestions?
Odin stuck in "SetupConnection...", impossible flash problem in Galaxy S9+ G9650
I've been trying to install TWRP on my Galaxy S9 + G9650 for several days, but I can't, I even tried to install the original ROM, to see if the problem was TWRP, but without success yet ... I need help with Odin, now I used all versions of it, new and old, I already changed the cable several times, I used the original and other different cables, and even the Micro-USB to Type-C converter and still without success. What should I do now? I really need to ROOT, whether with TWRP or not. I tried to modify the original ROM using the Magisk flash method directly on the ROM, then I tried to install via Odin and still giving the error. I put the images attached to the post.
OEM: Unlocked
USB Debug: Enabled

I've tried another USB port and even another PC, but it still doesn't flash, and the drivers are ok, I have reinstalled them too. And on my Galaxy S3 I managed to flash the Stock ROM and the TWRP on it too, only the Galaxy S9 + that doesn't.

Yes, i used the correct TWRP for my phone model.
Strange as it may seem, I got it on an old PC, but on two PCs here in my house, an Intel LGA 1155 and another AMD AM4 couldn't, they crashed at SetupConnection, but when I went to my cousin's house and tried on the old PC his, an Intel LGA 775, DDR2 motherboard, Windows 10 64 bits and everything went well, installed normally without any error. I believe that Odin has to have this bug fixed, on the other PCs here at home, even on the USB 2.0 port it didn't work, but as strange as it was, on a PC 10 (or more) years ago it did... Now my device is finally rooted with Magisk and TWRP.
S9+ ODIN stuck at "ConnectionSetup" ?
Has anyone figured out what the issue is yet?
I'm using a 2020 ASUS Vivobook with Windows 10 (64-bit).
I'm trying to flash the G965U1 Unlocked/Unknown Firmware.
I have successfully flashed the same to another S9+ I had, and know the process fairly well.
USB Debug is ON
Used several different Cables.
Rebooted PC
Factory Reset the device.
Reinstalled the Drivers
Reinstalled the Patched ODIN
Tried a different Version of Firmware.
Any thoughts, advice, or revelations?

Same model, same exact problem. I tried a different PC, but stuck on SetupConnection.
Do you remember which Odin version and drivers you used where you were successful?
Yes which drivers did you use that work? Android file host? Also latest odin? I get my sm-g965u tomorrow need to be prepared.
Hello,
I have a Pixel 2XL that I had rooted and was working fine. I went to do an update to Android. Apparently it went through and did an update, and than somehow it became locked again, even though I had unlocked the bootloader fine. Now it is showing locked, even though I never locked it. Thoughts?
Update: I was unable to unlock it again, but it's not responding via USB despite showing up on Flashboot Devices.
Can you boot TWRP? If so put a factory ota or lineage on a thumb drive and flash it
Hello,
I have tried but the phone keeps rebooting when I try it. I've read that using non powered USB ports can cause that behavior, so I bought a powered USB 2.0 Hub and I am going to try that, even though I did the initial root using my desktop with non powered ports.
