[Q] Help, Still Brick - Samsung Galaxy Mini

I just doing the app2sd Darktremor, then suddenly the phone is brick. Trying to flash the stock, done. But Play Store isnt available on the drawer, so i rebooted to recovery mode. Choosing the wipe dalvik, factory reset, and battery stats reset. Then, the phone is brick again. Tried to flash rom, but still cant boot to system. Help me please.

You probably bootlooped. APP2SD can't brick your device.
Also about Play Store dissapearing, that's normal. You need to log-in to your Google Account then Play Store will pop-out from the drawer.

Actually, it's your own problem for using a SGA script on a SGM.
But when you say it can't boot, can you boot it into either recovery or download mode?

install titanium back up pro and check if you have any residual copy of google play and then convert to system app
Otherwise, download the google play from google somewhere and use titanium back up pro to convert to system app..

I cant access the google servers after root/lagfix

I tried to do the lagfix on my phone. I dont know what was meant to happen but I had noticed it ran the creating 1gb file a few times. I restarted the phone and it wouldnt come back up so I done a clear cache and factory reset. I no longer have a boot menu and cant access google market or even sign in to google account to setup the market.
Any ideas? Samsung App store works just fine... Im using wifi.
How can I remove EVERYTHING i just done? How can I make the phone the way it came out of a box?
remove the lagfix if u can then boot into recovery and wipe data and reflash with a stock rom is my suggestion but i don't know much, good luck.
I removed the lag fix, wiped everything and still nothing. Returned the phone to samsung and they reflashed the stock rom as I have no idea where to find the stock rom and Kies wont do it.

market issue fixed (possibly) :)

hey guys i know many of you like me had issues with market downlaod not working or not installing etc, please try this out as its worked for me and ive even managed to instal all apps i had through titanium back up which also wasnt working for me
Please do the following steps in the way i did:
1. turn off the phone so its completely shut down (ie NOT in recovery or download mode). Once you are powered down remove your sd card, please DO NOT replace the sd card until i say
2. reboot to recovery and make backups of anything you dont want to lose through usb mount and copy items to pc, once this is done, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, wide data factory reset in that order
3. Complete the Factory reset and reboot
4. As soon as the device is restarted the first thing to do is login to Google Talk
5. After Google Talk has booted and is complete. Go back to home screen and start Market. Start off with downloading google maps
6. Press the Download and wait for instal to complete
7. now this is done you should be able to go ahead and start downloading other apps, i recomend trying a few you have had trouble installing then go for installing all from a back up if they instal ok
8. Now what we need to do is turn the phone off again so its completely shut down and then replace the sd card, replace the back cover of your phone, turn on the phone and wait for everything to start up as you would with your pc (while this is taking its time starting up go and get yourself a cold beer from the fridge and congratulate yourself on fixing your app market)
9. now try downloading apps from market again
10. have fun
goodnight and god bless
Hi Steve hopefully gonna try this tonight but Im trying to remember if you were on Darky's v9.2 Rom or not? If so after the factory reset did you install a stock (eg: XXJPY) first and then Darky's Rom or installed Darky's Rom straight away with CF-Root Kernal?
Thanks

[Q] teamhacksung ICS build 8 market issues

Posting here because I can't post on the dev thread being a newbie and all. I've installed [ROM][ICS][ITL41D] teamhacksung's ICS Port for Galaxy S (BUILD 8) and for the most part it's working great! Really love the changes in ICS over GB.
I had CM7.1 installed, I did a data wipe/factory restore, cleared cache and even cleared dalvik cache, installed ICS and then installed Gapps 5.1.
I have two major issues with Market:
1) When on the Market website it shows a bunch of apps in the INSTALLED state to my phone but due to the wipe they are not installed.
2) When I click install on an app from the website it says "This app will be downloaded to your device shortly." but then I never see it on my device.
I CAN install apps via Market from the phone though with no issues.
I've restarted, verified internet connection, etc. I even tried reinstalling Gapps.
Any ideas?
I know there have been times mine would not download anything after I used the website until I went on my phone and downloaded something else, then it like "wakes up" and downloads what I sent through the website. Have you tried that? Also, you are making sure you Ars logged into the same google account on the website as your phone, right?

Yeah I've been able to successfully download from the phone... still nothing on the site. And yes, same google account as on the phone - if I initiate a download/purchase from the website it does show up on the phone market app under the not installed portion of My Apps...
I've also tried with Wi-Fi enabled/disabled, tried switching to airplane mode and back... still no go.
SOLVED!
Pain in the ass though. Did factory reset/data wipe from within ICS, including formatting the SD card. Reinstalled CM7, booted, booted into recovery, then wiped cache/factory reset, reinstalled ICS then booted, booted into recovery, installed Google Apps and it seems to be working. Still shows up on Market website as "Installed" but allows me to select the phone and it does sent the push install.
Must have been some data setting that was preventing it. Oh well, good to start with a fresh phone once in a while

[Q] Recovery Help - CM10_LINARO_20130118_ODEX_IRX120, DemonsBlood v8

Okay, I did a ton of research on this, but when I flashed the ROM, I ended up with some major problems. I hope someone can help. Here's the deal:
Started with the stock ROM (Gingerbread 2.3.6), no overclocking
Backed up apps & data with Titanium Backup
Backed up contents of both internal and external SD card to my PC
Backed up phone to external SD card using CWM 6.0.1.2
Performed ROMwipe
Flashed odexed build, CM10_LINARO_20130118_ODEX_IRX120
Flashed DemonsBlood v8
Flashed Gapps
Rebooted
Now, the new ROM was working, but I started having trouble navigating and certain apps would force close, or I'd get messages that certain things had stopped working. Also, I could not figure out how to set up my home screens and wallpapers and settings and such the way I wanted. So I decided to go back to my stock ROM. But when I flashed my backup, the phone now acts as if it's been factory reset (although I can still boot back into CWM recovery). Also, when I download Titanium Backup, Facebook, and other apps, they force close upon launch.
I have wiped the ROM, fixed permissions, and tried again, with no success. I've copied the files I backed up to my PC back to the phone, but no joy there, either.
Ideally, I'd love to get my phone back to where it was before I attempted this - or, as a second choice, go forward and use the new ROM & Kernel, because I was pretty excited about trying it out. But I feel like I've lost a ton and now it's not working properly at all.
Can someone help me restore this? And tell me where I went wrong?
UPDATE: In CWM Recovery, I selected flash image from external SD card and selected CM10_LINARO_20130118_ODEX_IRX120, then rebooted. Now it gets stuck at the boot screen (Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G, Exclusively from T-Mobile). I tried booting into recovery, but no luck - same result, stuck at the boot screen. So I booted into HBOOT (vol down + power), got a warning about a custom ROM with a choice to reboot or proceed. Since I figured rebooting would just put me back at the boot screen, I chose to proceed. It is now showing the following:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SGH-T679
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: NO
CURRENT KERNEL: SAMSUNG !!
Then there's the android icon and underneath it says:
Downloading...
Do not turn off target!!
Sigh. Help.
Okay, I got out of ODIN mode and managed to reboot into CWM recovery. Progress! I wiped the ROM, flashed CM10_LINARO_20130118_ODEX_IRX120, SpeedyGonzalez_OC_1.5.5, and Gapps, and rebooted.
So now I'm running CM10 Linaro, Odexed, with SGK. Okay. **deep breath** The first thing I see after the boot screen is "Welcome, choose your language" and then "Unfortunately, Google Search has stopped."
OK.
Signing in with Gmail . . . (screen does not auto-rotate at this point)
Contacting Google, then again "Unfortunately, Google Search has stopped."
Completed setup, then again "Unfortunately, Google Search has stopped."
Going to Play Store to get Titanium Backup. And a few more apps.
Auto-rotate now works.
Into Titanium Backup and I get this warning: "This device's Android ID has changed. This normally happens after a device replacement or factory reset. The Android ID is the most common way for apps to identify the device. Any app that relies on it for security/licensing purposes may stop working (or need to be reconfigured) unless you restore the previous Android ID now." with a choice: Keep the new one, or restore the old one (I only have the free version, so this choice is not available).
Should I get my apps back from Play Store or Titanium Backup or both? (I now know to restore the "app only" from Titanium Backup.)
I'm going to keep plugging away at this. Any suggestions for my next steps?

i would suggest using TWRP recovery, backing up your internal, wipe cache 2x , wipe dalvik 2x , factory reset 2x, wipe rom 2x, and wipe internal 2x. then flash rom and gapps

[Q] Android 5.1 Play Store Google Apps hanging on "Installing"

Hey guys,
I flashed the factory image of the shamu's Android 5.1.. After I booted it up and signed in, I rebooted to bootloader, flashed TWRP, and rooted. The phone is rooted (as far as I can tell).
When I go onto the Play Store to restore my apps, any time a Google App is updating, when it gets to the "Installing" piece, it hangs and doesn't do anything.
If I Disable that app and reboot, it will do other apps, but every Google App is failing..
Edit: I tried to wipe cache and "Dalvik" cache, still no luck
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
Had the same problem. Factory reset fixed it.
