Hi all
I've got a s3 i9305 french SFR. I tried to root It with à bad file bye odin. Alter that the phone boot without asking pin code and i have no signal. After i root it again with the good file and the root is ok. But the boot is still bad. The phone tell me that i am in factory mode. When i shutdown it, it do directly without the normal interface. After many research i can phone. Sorry for my english, i am a french user.
Please help.
Seems hat you are in factory mode. That mostly happens if your efs folder is damaged... I had the same issue plus an annoying yellow font on black background ... did you backup your efs folder?
No i Didn't and i read it could be the problem. But there is no solution for the moment ?

Ok ....
First try:
1. Root the device and then download SuperUser first and Terminal Emulator from Google Play store.
2. After that launch SuperUser app and then use Terminal Emulator to type in the following commands:
Code:
su
echo -n ON > /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode
(ON is the right to disable it, dunno why)
I try it but no change. I had edit the file factorymode to change it before but nothing happened. Tanks

What helped me was: go to your efs folder and change the rights to rwx rwx x
I tried it before and no change. Do you still have the problem or it's ok for you now ? Do you know how to rebuild efs folder ?

No Problem and good luck!!!
You need to follow my sticky guide in the dev section.
It's the section on how to fix your device after bad or incorrect root package.
You need to flash the Param binary in odin that I have uploaded to fix your device.
SIM pin, imei and data connection will then be back.
Here is the guide link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1946915
Please read the first post in that thread
Good luck!

I try it but it's no work. Yesterday i change some settings in efs/factoryapp and after one month my phone works correctly. I used rootexplorer in r/w.
Many thanks for your help.

if you have downloaded any firmware open the firmware file with alphazip there you will see recovery file extract it then with alphazip create a .tar file and put recovery in that tar file then flash the tar file with Odin in PDA section you will get stock recovery.
I have to say you sorry because neither i have downloaded any firmware nor I can use odin to flash anything because I haven't any computer,so please tell me any other process like above you tell me about unrooting .Thank you for helping me.

He already answered your problem.. Do what he said using root explorer.. You don't need a pc to do this.. Uninstall superuser app I must add..
If you have cwm installed and you don't have a pc, then that would be a problem.. Not heard of a stock recovery flashable through cwm..

Hi , what is done by flashing cwm? I guess either it replace some files in system by deleting them or overwrite them . If someone knows about those files then we could get stock recovery back .or not?
And one question more. How to hard reset after flashing cwm?
The hard reset code *2767*3855# now not working.
Thanks for your kind help.

please read 10th post of this thread for removing cwm
to hard reset go to recovery (by switching on the phone while pressing home+power button) then scroll up and down with volume buttons, scroll down to delete data and factory reset(something like this)and press menu button to select it
code will not work as it is now cwm recovery
Hi Mr Dhlalit I have read that post and thanks for help. I just only want to know about the effect of flashing cwm on system files so that we can backup the effected files by root explorer .

No luck for today, for any dev reading this you won't find write permissions on data partition and on data not even read permissions on /dev no way to flash a insecure boot.IMG can't get ADV restore to restore anything , no way to flash stuff , no user mode on adb and no way to get boot loader unlocked( needs key) if I can find someone with a official boot loader unlock with his device I can maybe find a way to guess how making a device password works that means you can get unlocked if I find that way also tried another methods and no way to do since even files on data partition don't have read permission so sorry guys but I will try again and again if necessary

Hey,
I think this has been asked before but i will just do it once again to confirm because the problem isn't at my own phone.
The problem is the following:
My cousin has a Samsung galaxy mini 2 and she turned on her password screen lock ( a word as password instead of numbers
but she forgot her password
Because I won't lose any data or photo's and that kind of stuff so i started looking for a way to fix this problem.
What i found was, but it is only usable on ICS and GB is to fill in a wrong password as much as possible till it says:
try again within 30 sec because than you will get the option forgot pin/password
It was possible to get this option but I had to flash GB or ICS with odin --> will I still have all may data by choosing this option?
Is there any other option to get my data, photo's etc. safe or is it just flashing a rom and say bye to all your data?
Thanks in advance,
Pieter

BTW if you wipe from stock recovery, you will lose only settings, contacts, apps. If she has a google account (I guess she has as she has android), then log in and sync. It will restore everything except for settings.

There is a method using adb, no data loss i tried it myself. But the one i tried was on pattern instead of password. So i would recommend you to search for adb method for password. There is a change of little command. I will tell in detail with link tomorrow.

I did a backup, installed a new Rom but ended up restoring my backup I made so I know it's in the storage somewhere.
So I went to delete the older backup I had in the twrp folder and there are none there and there should be 2 of them, I can see them in twrp, so where else would they go.
When I do go in my storage or shows emulated, sdcard0, and legacy, either one I click on I get to my storage and everything is the same.
Look at the top left of the screen shots of the folder locations, there different but they go to the sane place.
I tried uploading 4 pictures but only 1 shows
