MY SGS is acting funny after installing Mitra ROM with Rom Manager. I backed up the old OS and the old recovery. But now it got deleted by accident.
Now i have the following problems.
- Cant connect to PC (dont suggest me to try other cables , other computers , install drivers etc.)
- Odin wont work
-Android SDK wont work
-When someone calls me the phone shuts off
-The Mitra ROM is accessible but there are alot of bugs , i can still use it if i have to perform something.
-Recovery mode wont work.
-Download mode works but my computer wont detect my phone.
-Phone shuts off when i enable wifi
What i want to do is:
]- Use some app one the phone which will wipe everything so i can install original Gingerbread rom again.
I can use a SD card reader to transfer stuff into the SD car and then use Astro to transfer the files to Internal memory.
I am completely stuck please suggest me something that will actually work , do not suggest me basic stuff that works with some lucky people because i have tried everything and i am aware of what options i have left.[/SIZE]

Dude, please don't blame a ROM for a fault on your phone that was there when you bought it!!
You really don't have to keep opening new thread for the same problem over and over and over and over....
We get it, you get it, the phone is knackered, you bought it like that, take the damn thing to a Samsung/independent repair shop and get it fixed!!!
There is no magical app this week that will fix it, there wasn't one last week and there won't be next week.
So seriously save yourself and us the time, effort and aggravation and get your ass to a service center! I am sorry for sounding harsh but look at all the threads you've posted...

The only fault with the phone was that it wouldnt connect to usb , all the other problems occurred after i installed Mitra ROM
I never got a clear answer , ok so the repair shop will magically fix the phone? I dont have any warranty now because of this rom
There was no other problem with the phone when i bought it , besides the usb connecting issue.
Lol, yes they will magically fix it, probably charge you something to replace the USB port or motherboard.
But honestly I think that is your only option.
You could ask them for an estimate before any work is carried out or you could try to return the phone to the guy you bought it from.

Please leave the useless discussion , if you are bored go on some chatting site.
I need some information from experts who actually try to find a solution instead of giving a solution that i am already aware of.
Im not stupid , if i had warranty i would have headed up to the shop instead of making threads here.

Last possible solution I can think of that may not be "useless"
Have you tried Mobile ODIN?
There is a lite/free version attached to the first post in that thread. Good luck

I purchased the PRO version , downloaded JPY.tar , , when it ''tried'' to reboot into recovery it got stuck @ SGS screen and now has been stuck for 2 hours
Now it wont even boot up
Hey man, you've never around when i look for you on skype,
i want to try to help you, but if you have tried all of the above i really see no solution for you!
i would probably have throwed it out of the window long since if it was me!
but please, dont make six threads about the same issue.
What you can do if you'r thread is not getting the attention it deserves bump it
bump to get it higher up so people will notice it, i know several people with different flashing experience is scanning the first pages of the Q&A site every single day.

OK, I'm game. Normally, I've been on here a couple of months and am pretty good about just finding my answers via search, but no luck on this one. Maybe I am just lost in the huge number of posts in the DamageControl thread.
I've been on DamageControl since last Friday. I read about ESPN coming to Sprint TV, so I decided to reinstall Sprint TV and see how it looked.
I grabbed the apk from Flipz prekitchen and used the package installer on my phone to reinstall. Sprint TV worked fine. Then I opened it again up later to show my wife, and I got an error message "You must be a Sprint customer to use this application." Eventually, I tried uninstalling Sprint TV and reinstalling it. It worked on the first try again, but again, later tries gave me the "You must be a Sprint customer..."
Ideas?
damage isnt actually a sprint rom its a verizion rom so more then likely thats the problem and really wont be fixed till we have a sprint 2.1 release it might work on the legend roms though thats worth a try

its all about ease of ascess man one thread with mad problems is much better then spreading the problems out amongst multiple rom/custimaztion/literally every thread you can think of
Here the what i think happened.
I tried to flash a some firmware onto sprint tab that I got working for a day. i then wanted to try a different rom. something went wrong and my tab didnt boot correctly. i couldnt get it into download mode, although ive done it about 100 times prior. Nothing worked but the flash was on. i couldnt turn it off. it would come on when i pluged the device to the comp or the charger.
i figured ill let the battery drain and try again to recover with the no_modem.tar everyone has used before. no luck .
a week past and now ive tried hiem and this time i was able to get a read. i must have tried the same files and same order 20 times out of desperation. to tell you the truth i didnt even notice when it made the connection. i just saw the process complete.
i thought like many other times before im back. however i cant get a sign of life from this device. i tried everything. if i had to put it into words this thread will be 3 pages before anyone can attempt to give me some input.
i want to give up. if it wasnt for this forum and all i have learned here before with my ppc8700 years ago , i would have mailed it in. so please. give me some advice. im too tired to continue. just spent 5 hours and missed dinner holding the 3 buttons and well getting no response from the tab.
please help..excuse my grammar . i didnt even proof read....
And this is relevant to the development section????
Dude how is this a dev project? Use some common sense, go to the question forum.

Sorry guys.took everything I had that night to put my problem in words.appreciate the move...
Hello all!!
I have recently tried to flash my Galaxy and me being the most useless person with technology must have done something wrong and now cannot work the phone.
Im pretty sure the message (now cant remember what it said) means it has ROM or something (please excuse my limited knowldege)
Anyway because I played around with it, its not under warranty hence they have to charge me.
However they have asked for $400 to fix the phone. Now I bought my phone for $900..??
I do accept my fault for breaking the phone in the first place, however I think $400 is a bit too much..
Now to my main question, is there a way for me to fix this myself?? or is there a cheaper place where I can fix this because this has gone way too far..
Living without my Android is like hell..
Can someone please help me!!!!
argh!!
I will try to get a better description of the fault if I can.
try reading some manuals and stuff like that on the forum
if it is rom related i think all u will need to do is flash a new rom from odin
just read and dig
if its software no problem to fix
i am learning my self too i had my phone not booting and stuff but after reading all good.
Ya, I got my phone bricked also, but managed to fix it. Basically search more info and tutorials for your particular problem and ways to fix it and you`ll find a way.
Did you drop it or?
If yes, you should repair it and pay :/
If not, setup adb and reflash your android!

My advise pay few dollars buy jig ebay flash with odin save yoursef 390+ dollars it is usb download jig very cheep believe it is exactly what you need
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
One the beginning as always .
Can you access download mode via 3 button or even recovery mode .
If so the probability is you can flash a stock rom to at least have a phone covered under warranty.If not working 100%.

I am on Alliance Rom XXLSC Beta 1.1 and when I connect my phone to a computer I have to manually press ''activate mass storage'', I hate this, I can't view files on my phone while it is connected to the pc and this is a real time waster for me.
Please can somebody tell me how I get my phone phone to connect as ''N7000'' as it does on some other Roms.
I have tried the USB switcher from the market but it has no effect. I have also asked in the respected ROM Thread but the DEV hasn't been around for a long time as he has ''real problems'' to deal with and not tech issues which I totally understand but that is good to me lol
Thanks in advance guys n gals, I also know where the Thanks Button is with XDA PREMIUM, reply for unlimited thanks! thanks
*bump*
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
why dont you try a different rom i know alliance doesnt update in a while.
And he posted the question already in the Rom thread and got answers or started discussions.
Searching in the thread I found a lot of references to USB/MTP/mass storage and why R.H. switched to MTP.
I think there is no real sense in starting a technical question in Q&A for a very specific Rom configuration like Robbie's.
So I would follow the above advice and try a different CR with a mass storage mode you like.
But: One single click is a time waster?
And even if posting here it doesn't seem necessary to provide informations about the very personal reasons of the Dev and ending it with "lol" (even if the last part of this sentence doesn't seem to make sense).

People had a go when I simply said the the Dev is too busy to do further work on his Rom, whats the problem saying he has real life things to sort out and not minor tech issues related to a phone? From monday I too will be too busy to do any kind of modding, playing with my phone so I have 5 days to get it how I want then I'm stuck with the final setup for 6 months. The recession caused by the few is affecting the many who played no part in it, its 1 of the biggest injustices of our time. The creators of the recession havent been affected like the rest of us, they continue earning obscene amounts of money while the rest of sacrifice to fix the problem they created.
- Yes its a time waster, if I listen to music on my phone while transfering files the media can not be read so the music stops.
I can not transfer an apk I have saved on my computer and then install it, I have to turn off USB Mass Storage to be able to view it on my phone. Turning on USB Mass Storage takes 5/10 seconds while it loads so yes its a time waster, its not just a case of 'clicking' 1 button.

hey guys, I was a windows phone lover, but as we know, i got forced out... so as I'm nkt a snob, I won't own a iPhone, so im trying my best with Android, but am not happy how intrusive Google is, I don't really care for Google either, and I feel they're watching my every move, and id like to ride dirty if I want to without someone watching me.. if... I felt like it.. sorta creepy if you ask me, plus Google ruined my buddies phone for downloading a video game they say was pireted, so im not ok with that, as the phone was my buddies property.. so.. yeah, that's my feelings on all this, miss windows, don't own a computer, just a boy and his stalker android phone, that always seems to have issues with software, afraid to turn my phone off, because for whatever reason, android phones don't like to turn back on.. for me anyway, hello everyone

thank you, I don't know how to do that sort of thing, and ware I live, we don't have phone lines, so no computer access, so I would need a way to do stuff either buy using phones own storage, or SD card, or to another phone, and a male to male cable linking the two phones together,, but as it seems, I'm guessing my Stylo 5 isn't root friendly, so idk, thanks for any help info you can provide, also, I'm having major problems with senior members, I posted a help question, and no one has responded to it, but if I comment on others posts, asking if they fixed the problem, or what I should try, it gets removed, then I suggested someone with a broken phone, hook a Sim card up to another broken phone, after getting the one networked unlocked, if it still didn't work, and putting in the other phone... and got message not to post illegal stuff on here.. it wasn't illegal, seems everyone wants to keep removing my posts, and talking crap to me, but no one wants to help me with my phone problem, I don't understand, I need help, not policing, thanks, if there's anything you can do to guide me or help me, it'd be appreciated
