S3 Mini Clone (MT65xx) - Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i have a Samgsung S3 mini clone.
AnTuTu Benchmark Result:
Brand: Samsung
Model: GT-I8190
OS: 4.1.2
CPU Model: Dual Core ARMv7
when i plug the unit to PC it listed in Disk Drive as MediaTek MT65xx MS usb device
i have problem with touch screen which is unresponsive sometimes, keyboard popup on its on sometimes and lately i received wi-fi error when i open the wi-fi. i plan to change its ROM hope that it will fix the problem i try to root it but none of the method i tried so far works.
i try a hard reset before and the boot screen changes to android logo painted with diff color and the word "Color My World" and it keeps that way for quite sometime every time i boot
now it booted with the usual samsung logo again
can you help me to flash with custom rom
thanks and more power

Since it's a clone, don't expect it to be same hardware or partition layout.
Before you try anything, make sure you know what your doing and what to do if things fail.
I guess you don't have download mode neither so flashin official samsung rom isn't possible.
Find out what hardware you got, and partition structure before any attempt.
Search for whatever board it built on and see what info you can get. Most manufactures got it's own program and way of flashing.
Good luck.

Sorry bumping an old thread but I too am looking for the Galaxy Player rom (yp-g70). I am willing to send a donation through PayPal if someone is able to send me a stock rom.
I was messing around and accidentally deleted something that completely messed up my tablet.
Please PM or email: [email protected].
Like I said, I'm willing to send some $ if someone can help me out!
I have a Chinese ROM that will at least get you a mostly functional device. I used it on mine after getting stuck in a SAMSUNG screen reboot loop that I could not fix by Wiping DATA, CACHE and restoring to default. It has Market and G-Apps but is missing support for Kies which may affect your ability for upgrades in the future. Let me know if you are interested.
Samsung Galaxy player 5.0 Stuck on Samsung logo loop PLEASE HELP ME!!!

all the roms are on samfirmware.com
under mp3
xxkd6 is english
So how do you load this rom if you're stuck in the bootloop?
Do you rename it to update.zip and put it on an external sd card and choose update.zip in stock recovery?
Update: Got it working
Hi guys,
This maybe off topic but i've run out of ways to solve it. So basically i just got my WIFI 5.0 ( YP-G70EW 16GB). But the trouble is i cant connect it to my wifi where all my other gadgets-sgs2&tab 10.1 have no problem. Now i read from previous post that this is due to froyo 2.2 bug. My wifi connects then discoonects then wont reconnect again.
I've tried to update mt tab 5.0 using kies but i should've known better. It's total RUBBISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just wasted 3 hours of my life!!!!!!
I see two solutions:
1) Can someone tell me a workaround the wifi issue thing or
2) Can i update my tab 5.0 using Odin? If yes, what firmware can i install keeping in mind that i have a YP-G70EW.
Thanks so much!!!!
2.3.5 using Odin 1.3

I use it. It seems stable for me, but somebody wrote that it rebooted 3x in 1 hour and sound options missing as well like when you choose big bass it will say "Speaker not supported" and options on the user are gone.
I didn't check the sound option yet, but will in the afternoon.
The bugs what I found yesterday evening:
The main screen and the applications menu doesn't turn if you turn the device
If I start the galery the moving of the pictures (the animations) too fast
Some people did not wipe the device. I will check too in the afternoon.
how did you fix it?

I am having the same problem - stuck in bootloop. Plug it in usb to laptop and laptop does not recognize player. How did you load?

[Q] Bricked note, what to do?

I bricked my Note due to the EMMC bug. Even the screen does not turn on when I plug it into the power. The Samsung repair center here in the Netherlands said it cannot be repared under warrenty, so if I want it to be fixed I have to pay 321 Euro's. Is there anything I can do to either fix it myself or to get rid of the (imho) way to high price?

send it to your most popular phonemenders(the one sammy uses) tell them you were on kies , it uploaded drivers and was acting strange so you factory reset it then it went black, no response.thats what i did and i got it fixed for free even tho i bought it second hand with no warranty
+1 yes you could have said to the samsung service that you had upgraded to ICS and the phone was acting weirdly so you factory reset from the menu and the phone went blank after that blah blah blah

You can try this here, but i would try activating the warranty by telling them you made a Factory reset!!
Good Luck!
They said it could not be fixed due to illegal software (aka the binary counter or they saw the custom rom. I have no idea how they got that info since I cannot get in the device, it doesn't even boot download mode.
I had same issue too..I sent to Samsung and they had it fixed without any question..

[Q] cant reset back

i just rooted my tablet 8.9 (GT-7300) long time ago.and now,i wan back an origin firmware...here's the prob..
my stock tablet is Malaysia.
i encounter problem its said ' firmware upgrade encounter an issue and bla.....'
b4 this,im using a custom stock 3.2.
when im using odin,its said failed at connection com.
can any1 help me w a guide or step from a - z
im appreciate u all kindness..
noob in the house :angel:
If connection fails the USB driver is probably not loaded correctly. To obtain the drivers, easiest way is to install KIES from Samsung. After that when you connect the tablet in download mode, hardware is recognized by Windows and you should be able to connect via ODIN.

I can't get "S/W Upgrade" mode
You were on Official ICS?
O2X has many ways to be switched on... it can also boot without battery ... if you are running stock rom (it doesn't matter much which one) then try to pull out battery (2-3s), place it back inside, then press and hold volume down button and power button till something happen... if you tried that, try to pull out your battery for longer time (i am not sure how long it has to be out but 24h will be enough), is is another way to factory reset your phone.
If that above didn't work you will have to do dirty job - flashing new rom via pc. If you never did that then find out some more info abou it first, but it is absolutly save. O2x is un-brickable phone...

If you will have to flash new rom, then i can recommend you this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1504280
- It is GB rom with extreme smoothness and battery life.
If you want something better then this JellyBean is very good: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2059372
I have same situation.... Friends O2x just stopped to work a week ago... Before that it was freezing and rebooting (i assume the reason is broken digitizer, although functional, but freezes mostly occur in temp changing.. for ex: leaving house....)
i cannot enter in recovery, i cannot enter in SW upgrade... every attempt of turning it on, or trying in recovery mode results with LG logo and than black screen (turned on, but black)...
SW is 2.3.4 stock... Is it possible to reflash, via PC, phone in that condition? (i didnt try yet, cause friend is in different town, but will send me phone tomorrow, and I'm now in stage of learning how to with LG (i own htc, have experience in flashing and stuff with samsung and motorola))

As i said above o2x can be booted in million ways. One of them is polling out the battery, holding simultanously volume up and down and connecting it to pc... your phone will still look like dead piece of useless garbage but it will boot up in some kind of emergency mod. You will then have to download any custom rom and flash it to your phone.
... and again, as i said above, i recommend you flash one of these roms... that GB one o had for 1 month really good battery life and RAM management. Second one JellyBean is extremelly smooth but less battery conservative (as all 4xx+ roms), i have the JB one 3rd day and till now no problem

Yeah, ive just found that way... I hope good will come . I will try to flash stock ICS v30b, as i saw it is OK for normal usage (he is not "hardcore" android user )
Thanks man , will be posting (hopefully) success
Oh i forgot to tell you that the JB rom (the install package not the rom itself) has a bug. It contains invalid META-INF folder and you would be unable to flash it. First you have to take meta-inf from version 3.2.0 of that rom and insert it into 4.0.0 archive but everyting is written in that forum thread
Hope i helped coz i am not developer... only user same as you

I wish you good luck .
And to inform you all 4+ roms are less conservative ICS included... tried TOPOGIGI ICS rom and although it was better then most Cyanogens it was still a lot worse then the GB i posted and if he really isnt that "hardcore user" then try the GB one... my o2x survived 8 days without charging and i was surfing on net about 2 hours per day .
Thread moved. Please post all your questions/requests for help here in Q&A in future.

Samsung S5 won't recognize in download mode

Sorry ... I'm a newbie to this "root-thing" ... I'm trying to root my Samsung S5 (Rogers) ... in following the instructions from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2293800 I followed the second post to the letter. When I plug in my phone after running Odin, my computer doesn't seem to recognize my phone as a device and there doesn't seem to be any communication between the phone and the computer. However, when I plug in my computer, but not in download mode, it registers find and I can use file explorer to look at the contents. Do I need additional drivers ? I don't understand while the phone won't be recognized in download mode ...
Any help would be appreciate.
Thanks
Hi
That thread you linked is for the S4. I font know if it works for an S5...but I'd be careful in the future about following procedures or flashing files for different devices, as it could lead to serious issues.
So, for your S5, I will have your thread moved to your device section so the experts who own your device can suggest any working root methods for your device.
Good luck!
