[Q] LnuixDx kernel swap and clockworkmod - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i've flashed my phone with custom kernel, LinuxDx.
i have two questions..
1)how do i use swap which was enabled?
2)how do i enter clockworkmod??

1. you can download the app "swapper2" from the market to use the swap feature.
2. Reboot your phone and a the SE logo, keep tapping the screen. CWM will appear in few secs
Hope i helped.

If you flashed LinuxDx there will be GingerDX splash screen not SE..

Just tap your Touchscreen short after booting. Sametime you pushed the back button for xrecovery.

thanks for the help!
once the wi-fi bug will be fixed on linuxDX i will re-flash it and try it out
thanks again!!

swapper2 dosnt work for me... "please wait" and "please wait", and nothing more... i waited really long time...
sorry for my english, im still learning

For swap i mean:
When you enter in CWM there is "Advanced tool", make partition on SD and assign some memory for the RAM Swap.

I'll try make swap once again

I found a solution.
In settings swap place needs to be /mnt/sdcard/swapfile.swp instead of /sdcard/swapfile.swp

[Q] Bricked my LG P990H (?)

So, I was on MIUI 2.4.6 with Etana Kernel.. then I thought that flashing some new kernel would take me advantages. But, I did it wrong, I've flashed the SuperNova RC2 (ICS KERNEL).
After that, the phone started (ok!) and everything was fine. But showed the message "DAMAGED SD CARD", so I formated it, then I rebooted my phone.
After that, the phone power up, shows the first LG screen, the second LG screen and after enter on ClockWorkMod Recovery.
I've tried to put MIUI back again, Etana Kernel too, wipe data, wipe cache, wipe everything. But nothing it's working.
So, I need some help in this case. Oh, my phone doesn't enter in the S/W UPGRADE screen too.
What can I do? Thanks!
EDIT:
That's what is on ClockworkMod Recovery screen:
ClockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.0
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
Can you still enter CWM? (hold volume down + power button until second LG bootscreen with the blueish background) If so, wipe everything (really everything) and flash MIUI + ETaNa Kernel again.
If not you could either try Smartflash or Nvflash, they both are able to recover a soft-bricked phone. Our phone is virtually impossible to hard-brick because you can always revive it with nvflash (or smartflash). I believe you can find some guides in the dev section (I'm not sure though) but you can always use the search button.
Good luck!
The good news is that no, you most definitely have not completely bricked your phone. Bricking your phone means that it is literally as useful as a brick; it won't turn on in any way or form.
Check this website out, I think it pretty much answers everything; I've kept it in store just in case I needed it

I'm thinking you have a busted SD card. But I'm concerned that you can't get into S/W update mode anymore.
I suggest removing your SD card, see if it boots.
If it doesn't, buy a new SD card, and see if you can NVflash the phone.
If that doesn't work, I hope your phone is still up for warranty.

Hi!
Yep, I can ONLY enter on CWM.
I don't even need to hold vol. down + power button, it enter automatically after showing the second LG logo.
I will try to search about that. Thanks for your help, mate!

Hi!
I removed, but the same happens.
I'm using now my old SD card, but that doesn't look to change anything..
I will search about NVFlashing and post the results here.

I have flashed some ROMs:
my old MIUI 2.4.6 and the Etana Kernel;
NovaHD_RC19-35 (with Aroma Installer); [The log it's attached to this message]
CM7 KANG - RC1-87;
But none of them bring my phone back to life.
format ur sd card (i recommend format it in a PC) and again put the rom again in root of sd card, boot into recovery, and again wipe data, cache and dalvick, then flash rom.

I formated in my PC but plugged on my old phone, Galaxy 5.
I've tried so many things... I googled something about "Internal Memory Corrupted".. maybe could be it, or not?
I will try to update cwm recovery to cwn touch recovery version.
Thanks for your help, mate!
Don't use touch recovery! It has a lot of bugs in it, stick with the normal CWM, because something as important as the recovery should be working perfectly!

Hey, I finally went to S/W Upgrade Screen!!!
Now I think I'm able to return to the stock rom!!
I used the The O2x Nullifier 2.2 [ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1555404 ] to wipe everything and it finally entered on S/W Upgrade!
Soon I will edit here with good news (I hope)
EDIT: OH YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FINALLY, I DID hahahah
I used The O2x Nullifier + Smartflash [ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCHRwKGTZTk ] to flash a stock rom.
Thanks for ALL, friends!
If anyone else stumbles on this problem too, I also had this problem today after installing django rom x1.1.
I fixed it as follow:
1. turn of phone
2. remove external sd
3. boot into cwm
4. choose advanced
5. partition SD card (i chose 512, 128mb, perhaps someone has a better suggestion)
6. factory reset
After that i could install CM & MIUI roms.

[Q] [q] help bricked phone???

Hi guys, im using a rooted 2.3.6, then i did the partition for link2sd, and everything worked perfect, however since i downloaded some apps first before doing the partition, i decided to do factory settings on the phone settings so it would be like a fresh internal memory then begin downloading when link2sd is already placed, however after doing factory reset on settings, my phone just keep on rebooting, everytime i open it, i downloaded the firmware in sammobile, as per advised, however im not sure how to flash it. should i use ODIN, or use CWM and do this process.
Using CWM.
Copy Zip to SD Card
Reboot into recovery
Wipe Data/Factory Reset
Wipe Cache Partition
Install Zip From SD Card
Flash ROM
Reboot
or should i follow this instruction via odin

Woooooooooo!!!
Stop here!!!
What do you want to flash?
If you want to flash a custom rom, do wipe data/factory reset, wipw cache and go advanced and do wipe dalvik cache too then flash the custom rom you want, (It's fully recommended to follow dev's instructions so the process could change with each rom).
well if you want to flash a fresh stock you should do 3 wipes to and then use Odin with the correct firmware and finished this process you'll need to do wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition to complete the fresh installation of the rom, if no you'll get a bootloop.
Enventually if you want to increase your internal memory you'll need a capable kernel (cf-root, BE, Space, nims11... ) with init.d support or create it by yourself and then you'll need to use link2sd or an int2ext script (I recommend you it, because it's easer to install IMO) with you sd-ext partition created in your microsd previously
All will work fine with this configuration
If you have any kind of question, ask here and we'll try to help you
WAHH OMG i didnt wait for your reply
wahh. what will happen, heres what i did
ACCESS CWM
wipe/factory reset 1x
wipe cache 1x
install from zip (Sll v10)
then reboot
it worked, however you mentioned i should do it 3x, and the one in advance option, but i didnt do it, should i repeat the process with your instruction?..
anyway it's working fine so far, it's not Galaxy SIII though i think what i have is Galaxy SII even when i open and turn off phone it says Galaxy SII..
and the interface already change I mean the design of everything, however my Menu button won't open my Menu, i need to open it using the soft touch application, however the menu hard button is working if i want to go to the main screen and long press access task manager.
do i still need to repeat the process w/ this.
wipe/factory reset 3x
wipe cache 3x
wipe the delvak cache in advance option 1x
install from zip (Sll v10)
then reboot
hoping for your reply
hi,, heres what i did should i change it?

well it is not bad, but if I were you I'd do "wipe dalvik-cache too" to keep as clean as possible my new rom
About de menu button, I don't know maybe a rom bug??... try another ro.
and ALWAYS FOLLOW DEV'S INSTRUCTION TO FLASH CORRECTLY A NEW ROM
Finally to flash a fresh rom you can follow the C prompt from this guide; (the guide you posted, It's right too )

Hi everyone here!
I had a difficult question. I made a mistake and flashed a s5360 stockrom on a s5830i. Now I could not enter any bootmode trying every keys and combinations. The phone starts and I can read samsung galaxy young gt-s5360 but only the topleft 2/3 of the screen is used. The rest is a bunch of colorful pixel. After some seconds I here the samsung startsound and then a small stripe of the screen shows me a part of a normal started phone. But I see not more then the time and the upper symbols. The phone seems to run. But I dont know? Is there anything I can do for it or is there no possibility if the bootmodes are not reachable.
I had no idea! Is there someone who has a tip for me? I think I could send the telefon to restart in downloadmode, but I dont know how to do because I cant see what happend when I press some keys. I think the system is running, it sounds when pressing vol+ or vol- and vibrates when pressing powerbutton. Thank you for every idea what I could try.

After mourning a moment because it looks like that there is no help for my s5830i, i have another question. With open case I see, on the back in the bottom left between battery and a screw, a connector. Never saw this before though I opened the case many times. It is or was a nice testing device for me. And I tested many ROMs, Mods etc. with it. I dont know what this small connector is? It looks like other small connectors and the innercase has a whole on its position, it seems to be there that a cable could be connected to the device. Does anyone know why there is such an connector on the device? Is it possible that there is something like a serial gateway to the device? Is there someone with knowledge about this?

I will ask more simple: Is there any possiblity to bring the phone in downloadmode if pressing the keys during start is not functional?
Or Another idee and another question: Is there a chance to manipulate the phone through USB, to bring it up in downloadmode?

Is your phone a galaxy y ? Are you not able to see what appears on your screen & hence not sure what mode is it entering ? I have a solution ! First google to find an xda thread to flash stock via odin for your device, download all the required files & setup odin. Now once you have setup odin, power off your phone. Simultaneously hold home+power+volume down button. Let whatever appear on your screen but just be sure that the phone is on. Connect your phone to pc via usb cable. If odin recognises the com port & displays as detected, you are good to go ! Just flash according to the instructions !

Thank you for your answer! First the phone with the problem is a galaxy ace gt-s5830i. Until some weeks ago I also had a galaxy young. Thats why I have also stockroms for the young. Then I made a mistake (It was sunday in the morning, sometimes not a good time to flash . I used a stockrom from the Galaxy young gt-s5360 for the ace. Now the ace starts and seems to run but theres a problem with the output of the screen, so I cant see what happend.
But my real problem is that I could not enter any bootmode. I used all keys and every combinations more then one times, but nothing works. Either the downloadmode nor the recoverymode are appearing. So I will follow your advice and will try to bring up the phone in downloadmode regardless what happend on the screen. But Im not really optimistic because every time, Ive start the phone holding a keycombination, the phone doesnt reacts and a few seconds later I hear the samsung startsound. Thats why I think I couldnt reach the downloadmode anymore. And I also tested to what happend if the phone is connect through USB. Odin recognices the Interface, I mean the yellow field with comX appears, but until now every time I start the transfer the logoutput displays "connection failed" and the field above the yellow field goes red. But Im still testing your idea.
Ive also another question. I sadly looked at the ace with the prolem, thinking if there is anything I could do, as I saw what I think is a connector for whatever. With case opened it is left under the battery. I dont know what it is and asked myself if this could be anything like a seriell interface. I find something similar on my galaxy 3. But there is a diffrent connector next to the battery left. Is there any knowledge about this connectors or whatever it is?

There are only two ports for the ace. One to connect the charger/usb & the other to plug in the headphones. As I said earlier, try to flash stock via odin. But by what you have quoted earlier, I don't think it should be a problem if odin recognises your phone. Just keep trying, if you don't find success, you may have to try jtag. Again jtag kit costs you. If I were you after no success, I'd definitely take it to the service center. If they can't start your phone & if they can't see what's happening on your screen, they'll definitely try to flash a new bootloader, which should bring your phone back to life. Worst case, they may replace the motherboard, which I think won't happen. After flashing the bootloader, they'll say that your phone's software was modified & that your warranty is void. But now you've got a new bootloader & you can go flash via odin As easy as that

Help, don't know how to reinstall OS

Hello to all,
I have some issues with my samsung galaxy s advance i9070 working with stock JB JZO54K.I9070XXLQE. With the rooted phone, I wanted to install CWM and followed the procedure, as I entered in recovery mode and accessed the first .zip file. It started to install. Next step was to press the home screen button and touch the display till the screen will show the new recovery interface. But nothing happened. I forgot to mention that I did wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache before starting anything.
My phone started normaly but it seems something wrong happened as it was showing some errors about google apps and almost all google apps disappeared. I shut down system and try again the same procedure, but still nothing happened. Same errors...so I wanted to flash the JB 4.1.2 stock ROM with Odin to get rid of those errors. So after I downloaded from sammobile the firmware, flash it, everything went ok till the phone had to reboot...it remained at the black screen showing the samsung i9070 white logo. I waited for Odin to show pass and disconected. Tried to restart but nothing happens. Still that black screen showing the samsung i9070 white logo. I reflash it second time with Odin using other JB 4.1.2 stock ROM. The problem is the same.
What can I do ? How can I fix the problem? I can enter only in download mode.
I'm new with the android OS. Pls help !

Try to wipe cache and do factory reset now again.
Flash again stock firmware with Odin, if you are able to enter ONLY in download mode. Download again stock firmware and compare the dimensions of files to see if there any difference.
Maybe you flashed a corrupt file.

Yes, i can only enter download mode. After comparing the stock firmwares, I'll try to flash again with Odin. It mathers what version of Odin I'm using ? What should I do if it still won't reboot ?
Flash and leave phne connected until reboot and apear the screen with Google account. I don't see any reason to not boot and hope you have luck.

Hey...I've finally managed to flash it with stock JB and the system starts normaly...You were right about the dimension of the firmware package, thanks a lot. That's one part of the problem solved. The other part of it is that the phone still refuses to go into recovery mode. What is to be done now ?
Is there a way of flashing with Odin a Recovery Mod ? CWM ?
Turn off the phone, pull out the battery for few seconds and after that press in the same time buttons : Power + Volume Up + Home.
Remember IN THE SAME TIME must press all three buttons and wait until you feel a short vibration.

Remember IN THE SAME TIME must press all three buttons and wait until you feel a short vibration.

1-Download and install Universal kernel Flasher from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2137598
2-Download CoCore E kernel From http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2140597
3-Extract kernel.bin.md5 from CoCore zip
4-Use UKF to flash that
Thank you, I followed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2198341 and all went perfectly.
Now I want to mount external sd card as my phone memory so that all the apps install there (specially the games like nfs, gta ...) What is the easyest way to do that ?

Thanks again. I'll try it right away. It could be a problem if I have already an Ext2 and a fat32 partition on my external sd card ?
Please, read carefully that thread for all the explanations.

I have read all the pages, but it dosen't says anything about partitions..It means the memory card should be a normal fat32 partition ?
Sorry, but you must ask in that thread. I don't use that setting and don't know to much about.
I have solved it like this : made a single FAT32 partition. Installed the .zip for change memory, reboot and now my device is showing my 32Gb memory card as internal memory and also installing apps on it. I noticed that some apps or part of them still go in the system partition (not USB storage) cause it fills some of that space too.

[Q] I did sth. wrong with my phone

Please help me.
I have N-7000. Its doesn't start anymore. Only "Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000" sign with yellow sign.
What did I do?
1. Changed with cyanogenmod installer my system to: cm 10.2 - it was working well. (still had full internal-card with thing i dont need)
2. Wanted Sweet Rom V 11.1
2.1. installed over recovery mod the newest philz cernel (from 08.06.2014, if i remember right)
2.2. installed the rom over recovery after wipings (all how decribed, did no mistakes)
2.3 restarted system, setup-wizard stoped (to full internal-sd-card)
2.4 so i went to recovery and wiped again things, like described in thread of sweet rom + i wiped additionally partion
2.5 restart system: everything was good and runnig well (but bit laggy) ! my sd-card was still full
3. i decided to delete everything from my internal: went to settings and choosed option: "save and recover" and then said: delete all.
Now my phone dont start anymore!
Connected to windows, it makes a sound, like somethng was conected but nothing appears there. (i think it recognise, there are 2 storages, but i can not go in or do something from windows.)
Also: if i put phone on charge: there is this battery-icon but not green! even its full and the picture dont move.
i tried to remove battery and start again: same! just this writing "samsung galaxxy note gt-n7000" but nothing happening
if i try to go to recovery again (volume up + button ü button" screen wents black and then charging icon appears or this other writings ...
sorry for my english! please help me somehow!
i am not sure how it call in english, but maybe it was "factory reset" in settings, which i did ... i was with cm on 4.3.1 and with sweet rom on 4.1.2
Sounds like you bricked your phone. That's all I can say. Might be possible to reflash with Odin. Sorry to say this, but you should have read more *before* messing with your phones brain... [emoji15]
Gesendet von meinem GT-N7000 mit Tapatalk
what did i do wrong? :crying:
i am now in downloading mode: what can i do here? its writen "downloading ..." do not turn off target ...
odin mode
product name: gt-n7000
custom binary download: yes 1 (counts)
current binary: custom
is it good? how long i must wait till something happens? what can i do or what could i do else?
ok, looks like i need also odin on my windows?
there are two versions: 3.07 and 3.09 which is good?
what am i doing withit now? dont wanna make again some mistake.
install odin and conect phone? and then?
If the download mode works, it is not bricked.
Why not flash CM:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_n7000
---------- Post added at 06:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:36 PM ----------
After reading the webpage I decided to flash a nightly build of CM, and it works without a problem.
https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=n7000
PS: Unplug the USB cable from the phone when trying to get into download/recovery mode. The battery display often gets in the way otherwise.
Use Odin 3.09, either flash a stock 4.1.2 JB rom (if u still want sweet rom) or follow the advice above mine. Search for triangle away to remove the yellow exclamation mark.

[Q] Troubleshotting with Recovery

Hello, everyone. Recently I acquired a Samsung Galaxy S5830D, the thing is that I wanted to change it's ROM so I decided to search over internet and in the forum I followed, they said that I had to install CWM (a custom Recovery) so I did it from the sd card. (In the stock recovery --> Apply update from sd card) Everything went fine. But then when I want to access to the recovery It always happens that instead of the recovery interface it appears a blue screen. The thing is that I have tried EVERY SINGLE DAMN THING... and nothing
What can I do? Is there any way to use options with adb or anything?
Please help me :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
**I installed CWM 6.0.4.6**
** Sometimes happens that in the middle of the night (around 10pm) magically when I reboot int recovery mode it shows the real interface but only like twice, but then it always shows the blue screen**
I wanted to attach a video but, xda doesn't let me, anyway. Please help me.
Hope you help this little poor soul :crying:
Thank you all.

Well it seems there is some problem with the Recovery . Try to install CWM Recovery v5.xx using fastboot. If you dont know how to flash a recovery using fastboot Let me know you can message me i will provide you with the Solution.

Fastboot is NOT necessary to go back to CMW 5.x recovery

The easiest and fastest method is using CWM to flash the desired recovery
Thanks!

Raakib Zargar thanks, but finally I gained access to the Recovery, I tried and I tried and I get inside. And then I took advantage of that and installed the ROM I wanted and for my surprise the ROM installed in the phone CWM 5.0.2.6 and after that I could do anything.
But recently, I did something wrong I guess and I think I hard brick my phone. It´s not my real real phone but it was my tester phone, just for practicing and learn. But I guess I won't have any fun and any learning.
Do you know any way to unhard brick my phone? :crying:
Anyway, thanks a lot
