I have JG5 installed and put Docs v.7 on my phone was working well for 2 days and today I turned phone on and off and it loads , but a black screen.
The screen lock is there with clock, I slide glass away and just blackness.. no buttons bring up anything, I can't do anything because I cant get into debug mode I am unable to do anything
Please please help me asap
Read the FAQ first please. I'm pretty sure there is a solution for you there!
PS: Weird things can happen on CustomROMs because the result of removing/changing certain components of the f/w is not completely predictable!
I read that a few days ago,
Ive already done a factory reset via vol up + home and I can see the original background but there are all these errors popping up
Sorry the process android process. acore has stopped please try again. force close
there are dozens of them, touchwiz is broken everything...
I cant do anything there are errors coming up.. how do I put a safe update.zip onto my USB??
I cant even mount my USB due to the errors coming up and coming up everytime I force close on the last error
Please help me with some ideas.
I cant go into USB debug mode, I cant mount USB drive. I cant access anything on the phone.. what can I do?
In between all the errors popping up I managed to mount my USB and put SamSet 1.1 update on there, I vol up + home and loaded the update..
It restarted and the notification bar looks diff but all the errors are still coming on..
logsprovider
gallery
twlauncher
media..
I force close them all but they keep coming around..
Going into download mode enables debug mode yeah? If it doesnt I am screwed..
The phone was working beautifully for 2 days, nothing has changed for all this to go stupid I hate when tech goes wrong and you have changed nothing...
The laptop needed a reboot Flashed JG5 via odin and its all happy now
Please be cautious when applying custom ROM's is the lesson here. phew!
Hi,
i tried rooting following the guide Here and it was ok until i had to start and run update.zip i just got a message saying it doesnt exist and since then i have not been able to boot, it goes straight into system recovery.
i did this about an hour ago and have been looking for a solution since and i cant find one on how to reflash my phone back without the need of transfering files as my computer wont recognise the phone other then in odin.
please help
EDIT: please ignore problem solved
i followed the flash part of http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=769400
So I was looking through the topics in this part of the forum today, and I saw "[Q] What is causing "Communication Failed" error?" (It won't let me post the link to it?) I followed the link in that topic and did what that guy said would help, and after doing that I restarted my phone. It did all of the startup animations correctly, I can still access the recovery menu out of it, but when I get past the startup animations, I'm just greeted with a black screen. The buttons on the bottom of the phone are lit up, but the screen gives no response. I can't turn it off without taking out the battery, and that doesn't help. If possible I'd like to try to fix this without sending my phone in, or without deleting the user data. Any fixes for this?
I would try re-downloading the ROM you want to use and then re-install it. But maybe there's a better fix, that's just what I've done whenever I encounter something strange.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I can't exactly put anything onto my phone with this problem. I can't access the screen at all past the startup animations. It's just black.
Not Bricked!
You have a few options as it seems your phone is "on" and should be recognized by your computer still.
What was it you were doing to the phone before it started doing this behavior.. wasn't quite clear on that....
If it was a mod to change your framework-res.apk. You can find the "stock" one in the ROM you originally downloaded and revert back to stock by doing an ADB Push to your /system/media folder.
Or... you will need to flash your phone back to stock - which means you will need to go here and download Odin and run it.
Always helps to have that "plan b". Bottom line though - your phone isn't bricked and you should be able to restore it and continue on. But... please note that ODIN will wipe your phone and anything you had on it will go bye bye.

I followed the advice on how to fix that problem in the second post in that topic. When I restarted my phone the screen just ended up going black. I'm going to try that Odin thing, I hope it works.
e. It's kinda annoying how I can't post links.
Ok Edit again, I've tried the Odin thing, and it just isn't working. Now whenever I try to put my Simcard back in, It doesn't even do the startup things, it just goes to that Phone Caution symbol PC picture thing. I'm worried that I'd have to go get a replacement.
Can you please provide us with a list of everything you have done to your phone and how you tried to use Odin? That will help us help you. Please be specific, this will get you the help you need. I read the link, did you use ADB or the first method in that thread? Sounds like you messed up while trying to fix your device manager. I am not sure how it is you tried to use Odin, try using a rear usb port, Odin can be a pain, make sure you have the drivers installed.
Ok, Here's a list of what I've done to my phone over the past few days.
1. I rooted it.
2. I kinda sorta half-assed the process of allowing me to put on Non-Market apps onto my phone, I made it so that the settings.db file had the permissions all set up, but I never replaced the first settings.db file. (It's just sitting on my phone's interal SD card.)
3. I tried to do that Non-ADB method listed in that topic I linked to. After that I started having these problems.
4. I accidently ended up clearing the Data cache through the recovery menu thing. Just an accidental moving of the buttons. It didn't seem to effect anything.
5. I booted the phone into recovery mode and tried the Odin thing. It got stuck at File Analysis, and I tried again. It still got stuck, and I let it continue trying it while I was eating dinner. After I got back it was still on that, so I took out the USB cord and phone battery and put the Sim card back in. When I try to boot it up it goes to that PC error phone thing. (I can't exactly get an image of it, I hope you know what I'm talking about.)
And that's all I've done to it. I'd try a different USB port, but I don't have any more. I'd try my other computer, but that's a Linux machine, and Odin is a Windows/DOS executable file. I'm pretty sure the drivers are installed correctly, as I had been doing stuff with the phone via USB just yesterday.
I hope that's enough detail to help figure out something.
I'd hate to doulbe post, but I really really do need the help with this. If any of you have any advice for it all, please, feel free to contribute. If there is no fix for this, and my phone is actually bricked, just let me know so I can go get a replacement.
Did you make sure you had odin started up BEFORE you put your phone in download mode? Odin is very touchy and you have to do things exactly right or it won't work.
Yes, I've made sure to follow all of the steps right to the last peroid. I'm probably just going to have to go get a replacement anyway.
As I said, phone is restarting every minute, it cannot enter recovery mode by using 3 buttons. I've tried hard resetting, but whenever I press the button to erase it, it either does nothing or it restarts again. Also whenever I change some of the settings they revert after a restart. I've tried flashing some rooted roms with odin, and it said "pass" but phone still remained the same. I've tried flashing pit files, the three button recovery and all, but still nothing did any good... Is there any way I can fix this? Is there any way to find stock official images and install them without odin, like LG's software update kdz, or HTC official installer files? Is the phone just dead? Please help guys!
P.S I've posted it in general discussion too, because I don't know the right place for the tread! Sorry if I am making trouble of it!
Hi Guys, I come to the point where I need help please, I have very long experience in rooting but this issue I could't fix and/or find a solution for it since the 901S is unrooted there is no EXE RUU not been touched. This is my wife phone and I had same issue with main a year ago but since my phone was rooted I could fix it.
The issue is when the phone start rebooting by it self at once, nothing was done to cause that like installation app or what so ever. It start and when reach home screen, few sec it reboot from 0.
phone data: S-On, Hboot-1.61.0000, Radio 4t.31.3218.26, oS-5.16.709.4
I have tried this:
-Unlocking with unlock_code.bin, is give me the yes/no screen when I click yes it reboot to stock recovery then nothing, (it show the message about missing E bitmap)
-uploading rom stock or any other didn't work, not by using fastboot or any other method I know.
-run into save mode help give few more secs but nothing, it reboot here too
-factory reset from device didn't work as I click okay but it keep resetting.
-order *#*#3424#*#* and factory reset also nothing.
-the device memory is 95% full, I tried to format data or system or from fastboot or by deleting files also nothing get deleted all stock and after restart I see ever thing like it was.
any suggestion here?
thx all,
Any help any one
