would this be of any help you will need to be very carefull using the instructions

hi thanks I have used this way it has removed the sim lock but now it says no network. even wheni check with the *# commands it says off

Hi I had the same issue after i unlocked mine but can't remember if resetting the phone sorted it or whether flashing a new rom fixed it. Try wiping cache and data from recovery [hold home button and power on]

ops think I bricked it with cwm here comes a lot of Googling
:banghead:

can you access the download mode?

do you mean the factory one

by powering off the hold down volume down and home button and try to power on? you should get the yellow triangle with downloading under it.
if you can get into this screen you should be able to reflash a new rom or your old one?

will try that thanks the only life I have got from it so far is that my PC can see it on USB so hoping to flash new recovery and rom via PC

can't get it to charge from USB no life at all now

check this site out there may be some help there?

[Q] HELP!! Phone is dead I think...

Hi, I just rooted my phone and installed Darky's ROM etc. Everything went perfectly but I just did a factory reset on my phone through the settings > privacy menu. Then i turned my phone off, now it's stuck on the boot screen (the one that says:
Galaxy S
GT-I9000
Samsung
)
Anyone know what I can do to resolve this?
PS, I've tried booting into recovery and download mode,- only download mode works
Flash ressurrection with Odin, or just try reflash a kernel.
Post in right section next time !
And don't say "dead" "brick" if you have download mode, nothing is more "noob" !
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Flash another ROM in Odin with re-partition. You need CSC, Modem, and ROM. The next time, factory reset/wipe, clear cache, and clear Dalvik cache before flashing to a custom ROM, not after.
Also, this is the wrong section for this.
If download mode still works, its unlikely that its ' dead'.
Probably just a corrupted filesystem or some missing file that it needs.
If youve tried everything else, the thing left to do is flash a complete firmware via either Odin or Heimdall, in download mode. That should give you a working phone again.
First, wrong section... post in the right section next tome.
Get darky resurection edition and flash with odin, then reflash darky nornal rom from cwm

follow this guide for flashing stock rom --> http://darky.ficeto.com/community/i...-stock-rom-over-darkys-rom-gt-i9000-only.486/
AND: if you can access DL mode then Recov Mode is working too. You are just doing something wrong then ... for Recov Mode you need to release all buttons when Galaxy S logo appears.

For questions maybe the questions and answers section
Anyway, with download mode our phone is pretty much unbrick/killable unless you flash another bootloader which is a) rare and b) not really a threat either
I think my phone is dead.... can anyone help me verify that? I've been reading all over and tried all ways to get a response, but there's none.
I pulled the battery and let it sit for several hours before inserting. - No response.
Put in my spare batte, have it plugged to charger. Also no response.
Plug to PC, PC doesn't even see the phone.
Cannot go into recover, download or boot or show any signs of life.
It was charging fine one moment (last saw about 80%) then about 10 min later, went to unplug to use.... but found the phone dead and rather warm. (not sure if that is usual since the batt was being charged)
Anyway, I flashed my phone only 1 week ago using "Insane" kernel and doing Overclock to 1200 with about -75 undervolt across the frequencies. Did I kill the phone by doing this ???
What are my chancs of getting warranty on it if the service centre manages to find out it had been flashed??
What are my options now? Any other areas to chek and try to recover?
Thanks
Well, if you can't get into download mode, there is still one more step to try before giving up. Go to ebay and search for I9000 usb jig. That might be able to force your phone into download mode. (They are cheap. Very cheap.)
If that doesn't work, there's nothing else you can do but to bring it back to a service centre.
Check out the info for the rig you mentioned. Apparently, it doesn't wotk for phones that are totally dead. i.e. no signs of life at when buttons are pressed, no lights etc.
I brought the set down the to service centre and luckily, the lady there did not ask me anything much. She just swapped out the batt to verify, plugged into USB charger to verify... then started to fill in the form for the phone to be sent in for repairs. Though she's not the repair person.... she did mentioned that all data would be lost and most likely a new board would be put in.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed that'll be the case... just gimme a new PCBA w/o trying to repair the current one. Hope they don't have any diagnostic tool/fixture where they can boot from a "debug" chip (such as processor, etc) to do board level repair.... then it might just show up that I'm running a modified kernel & ROM.
They cant check, if you were runnig custom ROM. Stop worrying, mostly they do not have a choice but to replace PCB. This is my personal exp. with samsung.

SD Fix Tool kit causes it.

Upgrade from custom ICS to official

I would like to upgrade my 2X from Nova HD Rebuild v1.1.0 to Official V30A.
Problem is that I can not install drivers for PC because my custom ROM does not support PC connection,
Then I tried to downgrade it to stock rom, but I forgot to do backup in CWM when I moved from to stock to custom ROM. Thats way I have nothing to come back to. Now I am stucked without any ideas.
Can you please give me some advice?
Thanks
Admins!! I am bit surprised about this post. How come a new member with only 4 posts can open a new (looking for customer care kind of) thread in DEVELOPMENT section?
Asking coz I think this facility was not available since many years.
Dude! This post should be in General Section. Generally Devs dont answer such things in this area. :silly:
download B2C from lg site and install drivers
put youre phone into sw mode
download smartflash
wait for drivers

thanks mivv, I have already tried that. But when I connect my phone to PC, those drivers can not be recognized because my custom ROM does not allowed it

dafoxen, I tried removing the battery and Holding downvolume up & down , when booting, but in that case phone wont start.
It only boots when volume down is pressed and then it goes to sw upgrading mode. After connecting to PC nothing happens, no driver installing, no nothing.
I also tried with dubuging mode on and off before booting but its the same

cmahendra is right, the post doesn't belong in the Dev section, if the mods see it I am sure they will move it.
If you HAD to post in the Dev section then maybe you could have posted in the Nova thread?
But.. why don't you just put another rom on your SD card (surely you can take out your SD card and connect it to your PC? Buy an adapter if you need to they cost pennies) and flash it from CWM? Then you can connect to your PC.
Right now I`m searching for stock rom in zip format to try it load with cwm

I have almost exact same problem, but mine has been already update to ICS using smathflash. But for some reason I cannot install Homero's rooted V30a, becuase apparently the opti tool keep saying: USB device not found. I already try LG drivers, switching USB ports, restarting computer, poor device by now I'm sure it feels that has been raped after so many plug in's and off's.
How do I do and how do I know that the computer recognize it in APX mode?

Exactly, you've been here for over 5 years, you should know that questions go in Q&A. And don't try to blame this on cmahendra, he's kinda right. The development section is for Roms, kernels etc. Not questions.
I am not blaming anyone. Everyone has its own opinion and that is great, it only makes this community better.
But still I cant solve my problem
hectormcesar is having one also.
Come on people, we count on you :good:
He probably got the point, I'm a wise guy, we all are, anyway time, to update officially downgrade at least the baseband which is what LG check, I've done it with gb, but ics from topo was denied probably because bb was 28g.......

You might find an answer there, it gave me some life signs:
I flashed this:

To get some sort of life signs, I switched to CP UART, because switching to AP UART didn't change anything. Anyway, I hear the sound that plays when you plug a device in a couple of times, but it shows as an unknown device in the device manager. I also get a little icon in the system tray that says "an unknown device has been plugged in". A couple of seconds later, it disappears, the "disconnect" sound plays and the "unknown device" is no longer shown in the device manager...

[Q] Is it possible to root the new Galaxy S3 mini GT-I8200N (Value Edition)?

Hey guys
first of all thanks a lot for this great forum.
I have a question regarding my new Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini (Value Edition) (model number: GT-I8200N).
Is there any way to root my phone? I can't find any info for this model on the internet.
In this thread only the GT-8200 is mentioned. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2185700. How is this method working?
I found a guide for rooting the "normal" S3 mini by flashing the CWM and SuperSU.
Is it possible to root my phone this way without bricking it?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Try this, it roots almost any device.
Hi, i have an i8200L and I did root it with the vRoot. But does anyone know if the others mods for i8190 work for this one? Like ROMs and all that?
I've read that you can't flash roms etc. because there are differences in the software (bootloader?).
The chance that you brick your phone is pretty high.

There is no excuse for that, i know. But I know now, that i flashed a wrong rom.
Can I throw the Mobile away or is there a chance for it?

That is download mode. You have to chose vol+ to see your status.
To get out of download mode, just hold power for about 10 sec and it will reboot to system.
Recovery mode: vol+ / home / power
Download mode: vol- / home / power (confirm with vol+)
Thanks for answer. In recovery i can not see anything. In download Mode it says "system status: official". But at the top it says "odin mode" Does that mean that warranty is still ok or not?
Is still ok!

i9305, boot screen freeze, help :)

Hi everybody!
I've got a little issue with my phone Samsnung S3(gt-i9305), I post a thread here because I don't know what else to do.
The problem is that the phone is freezed on the samsung logo which "flash", as soon as I put on the battery.
- I hold the "power" button for a long while, nothing happens
-I try to launch RecoveryMode(up+home+power), nothing happens
-I try differents battery, nothing happens
My only hope:
I can launch the "download" mode(down+home+power), but if I let the battery in, it return to the flashing logo.
So I have to remove the battery(with the USB on my PC of course) and it work!!
So I'm in download mode, without battery.
But:
- I install my latest stock ROM, about 10 times, nothing happens (Firmware : I9305XXUEMKC_I9305XEFEMK1_XEF (4.3))
- I try to do the previous step with "nand erase all" and "T-flash", nothing happens
... WTF!
Is someone's got any idea of what's going on, and how can I do to save my phone?
I'm still searchiong on the forum, but any help will be so deeeeply appreciated
Thank very much for reading and helping
I'm scratching my head very strong, and I think it may be a power supply problem, maybe the power switch on and off so the phone cannot boot, and that's why it's work when I remove the battery.
Is anybody knows that kind of problem? Do you think I can open my phone and fix the problem?
Thanks
Did u flash any file before this happened? And ur first post. Firstly, the gt-i9305 is NOT the s4. And this is the gt-i9300 forum. Anything u flash here will just lead to ur phone being hard bricked.

I tried with SQlite bug it didn't work.
And Jumaqidi, I just saw that I missed the line of 9305 Q&A (was just above 9300), very sorry for that, what can I do, must I post another thread in the right section, or I wait until an admin move my thread?
Thanks
