Status: beta experimental
Requirements: v7 Bootloader

exactly^^
the "hold on, the screen's black, let's grab a flashlight..." has been in my mental toolbox for years...

My linux laptop is at work, ill try unpacking your recovery img and see if i can find anything tomorrow

Great.
I have tried to write this silly value into brightness, but I failed hard.
What I've done to make this recovery: get cm-11.0, downloaded the recent kernel sources from this other thread, edited the configs, avoided errors.
If anybody cares to talk me through uploading this whole mess to git, I don't mind doing so. If anybody wants a zip, even better.
Anyway, it's getting late-ish. More brain-wrecking tomorrow...

backlight fix: please hand me the eye-bleach
Original:
Code:
static int dsi_s_wqxga_10_1_bl_notify(struct device *unused, int brightness)
{
int cur_sd_brightness = atomic_read(&sd_brightness);
/* SD brightness is a percentage */
brightness = (brightness * cur_sd_brightness) / 255;
/* Apply any backlight response curve */
if (brightness > 255)
pr_info("Error: Brightness > 255!\n");
else
brightness = dsi_s_wqxga_10_1_bl_output_measured[brightness];
return brightness;
}
Fix:
Code:
static int dsi_s_wqxga_10_1_bl_notify(struct device *unused, int brightness)
{
return dsi_s_wqxga_10_1_bl_output_measured[160];
}

Does that mean backlight is fixed

man I have been trying to get this recovery going, i even changed the brightness to 255 as well in default.prop. And the other file( i forget which one) So many file edits in ubuntu its insane.The kernel i used is stock 4.3 mb. Your kernel in img is 5.7 mb. When i used your kernel it boots but no backlight. stock kernel it just reboots. Pulling my hairs out here. Glad someone was able to get it working!
Thanks!

Yes it running. Debating why? the stock recovery is basically useless, so flashing a recovery is harmless. Been building,rebuilding this recovery the last few days, all pretty much didn't work. So I did this today:
reboot to bootloader(fastboot)
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
And Ip's recovery is working, backup complete! If backup doesn't work(no reason it should't) with restore I can just flash the 4.3 update-user.zip.

[Q] Boot loop, can't connect to odin and other problems.

Hi, first of all ,thanks for taking your time to read this.
Hopefully somebody here can help me find a solution.
I have tried many searches here, and on other forums. I've spent hours already on google but I just can't find a solution to my problem(s).
I decided to completely wipe my phone through ClockworkMod Recovery v3.0.0.5 as it had been running quite slow. I performed a data/factory reset and I wiped cache partition, Davlik cache and battery stats.
I reboot the system and it was stuck on the boot screen with the samsung logo. Every time I tried to reboot it was the same. Removed battery, same. My laptop and Odin also won't recognize the phone even as a storage drive. Navigating to storage through ClockworkMod shows "unknown volume for path"
I have tried everything I could find information on to get the phone to boot but nothing works. Is this a common problem? I really have no idea what to do next. Do I have a brick on my hands?
Thanks.

Can you go into download mode or not? I had almost the same problem, then I tried to install cwm using odin but it turns out I used the wrong version of cwm recovery (not for use with odin). When I pressed start in odin and it said "FAILED" I thought I just had to disconnect my phone and try it another way but it turns out I now don't even get that logo. only a weird phone image warning image and computer image. meaning the phone isn't connected to the computer.

I had similar kind of problems when i tried to flash a stock rom via odin. I completed it without errors. But when i tried to wipe data/factory reset in cwm5, i got an error E: Cant mount /cache/command.
And when i reboot the device, it got stuck on the logo. Tried several times but didn't worked.
Finally i solved the problem by flashing bootloader via odin accessing download mode using three button combo. I am not an expert to solve your problem but i hope this info helps you...

Are you sure you can't acces the download mode using three button combo. If then try using a jig to access the download mode. Search for it and you will get a detail 'how to' guide. Hope i helped

Hi guys,
First of all: I'm italian, sorry about my bad bad english, I'll try to stay as straight as I can.
I'm in need for some help about an issue with my SGS, and I think it's a problem we can relate with these you posted before.
Long story short, I've got a loop problem as well.
I had mounted cyanogenmod9 on my phone, and It worked perfectly until last night, when i did simply try to charge the battery and the phone started looping over the charging mode (it was off, the battery was completely empty before I plugged the phone with the charger)
No recovery mode available, at the time.
So i decided, as long as download mode was working to re-flash with odin the ClockWorkMode recovery.
And...it worked.:good:
But now my phone is still in loop, because as jabrif said:

Make sure your laptop has a latest version of odin and samsung drivers. Remove your phone battery for about 2 minutes. Insert it back and press and hold vol-down, home and power buttons. If you can get in to the download mode the device will detect in odin.

You have to flash Boot_loader.tar for your sgs via odin. Make sure the device has enough battery (say 70%)

[Q] [I9001] Suddenly some mysterious problem's (Still need help)

Hi guys, i have a very big problem. I think i may have bricked my smartphone.
I've installed the Cyanogenmod 10 by ivendor from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2000828
I already searched the whole net but i never found the exact same "symtoms", here they are:
If i start the Handy it stops at the Samsung Galaxy s plus/Cyanogenmod Screen, but after a few Minutes the screen get's dark and nothing else happens.
Also if i push the menu or return button the light get's on and doesn't off anymore.
It's impossible to get into recovery mode. If i try the screen get's black and again after pushing the menu button it lights on.
I also already tried to flash it again to a stock rom, because the download mode still works.
But after the flashing it won't reboot and if i reset, the bootscreen hasn't changed a bit the cyanogenmod logo is still there.
So i believe, that the flashing didn't work.
Another thing is, that i installed several clockworkmods to get my smarthphone back.
If you have a solution please help me, going to school without music is very bad :crying:
I forgot to mention, that if i load the phone while it's off. The normal shown batterie only shows an stuck loading circle.

Make sure to stick with the instructions.
Next time when flashing a new rom make sure to use the correct recovery and that you have downloaded the new ROM fully

[NON-DEV] [VZW] Bootloop after 4.4.2 Update

Hey guys,
Tried updating with the 4.4.2 OTA on VZW and my phone got itself stuck in a boot loop. Gets to the android is updating sequence, says starting apps, then "Unfortunately android.proces.acore has stopped" and soft reboots. Totally stock, never rooted.
I got into system recovery and tried wiping cache but no luck with that. There are options to apply updates from sdcard and ADB, so is there a factory image for VZW 4.4 that I can push to my phone and apply it in recovery or am I SOL and have to do a factory reset? I'd hate to have to lose data...
Thanks!

I didn't because having G+ enabled gave me battery drain... I did have an app to sync my pics with G Drive up until Jan 30th, but it wasn't working correctly so I got rid of it...
Think I'm going to use the dropbox auto upload though.
You never think something like this would happen, and bam it does.
It's so weird, I've wiped data before on my Galaxy Nexus which also uses a vitual SDcard, and I never had this happen.

Getting into fastboot is the bootloader mode. Hold Volume Down + Power for about 3 seconds and release. You can read what version of the bootloader you have from fastboot mode (aka bootloader mode).

Bootstack flash gone wrong...

I have an LG Optimus L90 D415 currently on [ROM][LP][LG-L90][UBERTC] Optimized CM. Was experiencing random reboots, so I thought I'd try updating the bootstack from 10C to 20B. The flash said successful. I cleared dalvik and cache, then hit reboot system. The screen went blank. I'm now stuck in what appears to be mass storage mode? I can't access recovery (TWRP 2.8.6.0) or download mode. I tried all vol down + power for recovery, no logo. Tried vol up and plugging into usb for download mode and the only access I get from my computer is these 2 files (see attached). Any help appreciated...

softy brick after root attempt (T815)

Hello Everybody !!
I really need help
I just got my T815 (Austria),and I tried to root it.
I read through all the tutorials for this,also Im not new to this,yet it seems I screwed up somewhere.
Here is what I did (to my tab) :
* Downloaded Odin 3.10.xx
* Downloaded sm-t815_cf_autoroot.tar
* Firmware on the tab was 5.0.2 (also did a OTA update before rooting)
* Flashed the sm-t815_cf_autoroot.tar with odin
Rebooted,everything was okay,there was also superuser installed already
* flashed twrp_2.8.6.3_LL_5.0.2_t815.tar
* rebooted into recovery,looked really great (compared to my old CWM on my old tab)
* then I did a full wipe,so I can start over now with the rooted tab.
yet when I rebooted,I just see the white on black (Galaxy Tab S2...) and thats it.
I cant even turn the thing off .
I can get into download mode.
Tried to flash T815XXU1AOI5_T815OXA1AOI5_T815XXU1AOI5_HOME.tar.md5 yet it says
SW REV. CHECK FAIL DEVICE : 2 , BINARY : 1
All I can do now with the device is :
* Boot into DownloadMode
* When I flash twrp_2.8.6.3_LL_5.0.2_t815,I can also access the twrp recovery
but thats all
When I reboot I only see the white on black ,thats all,I cant even turn it off
any ideas ???
help is HIGHLY appreciated !!!
well... I was quite sure Im F*****D even after 3h googeling and flashing stuff... yet it seems it wasnt enough time spend on research.
I managed to bring my tab back from the dead... I found a firmware that was flashable,and now its like nothing ever has happend.
Rooted/Recovery.. everything is okay.
So pleae consider this thread closed,I dont know how to delete it myself.
pS:
What I hate most are posts where ppl ask stuff,then close it themself and say..."nevermind.. I fixed it" without posting the solution.. so I wont do that too
My solution was :
Flashing : T815XXU2AOJ4_T815ATO2AOJ1_T815XXU2AOJ4_HOME.tar.md5
It seems this is newer (version) than the ones I tried to flash,so it was accepted by the device.
I fall in the same condition, i flash the same firmware and odin say it is all ok and the firmware it is charged correctly but i'm in bootloop again.
any idea? no way to go in recovery mode, only download mode

Reboot your device into Android Recovery Mode: For smartphones >> by pressing and holding Volume Up and Home buttons together and then hold the Power key till screen shows the Samsung logo. Release the power button but keep the other two keys pressed until you see a black screen with green Android bot and blue text. For Galaxy Tab or Note 10.1 >> press and hold the Volume Down + Power keys together for a few seconds until you see the yellow triangle with Android bot followed by a black screen with blue text.
Once in recovery mode, use the Volume Up/Down keys to scroll up or down, and use the Power button to select any option.
Perform the wipe operations by scrolling down to wipe data/factory reset option and select yes to confirm the process. Next, go to wipe cache partition and confirm it.
Once done, go to the reboot system.Then you flash via odin any frimware for your model.
Thanks but the problem is to go to recovery mode. I can't shut down the tablet. The only think i can do is to go in download mode pushing power+down+home button. No others combinations is accepted. I try to discharge the tablet and then insert the cable pushing the correct combination for recovery mode but it don't work.

Its different on a newer Galaxy Tab.
My Note 8.0 i.e. goes "Power button + Volume Up" into recovery.
But on the Tab S2 ,you have to press "home+power+volume down",and the second the screen goes black,you have to press volume up,then recovery is loading (red text in the upper left => then release all buttons). Otherwise the download mode loads again.
Took me a while to figure this out.
If your using TWRP,you can power down your device there if your still caught in a bootloop (i.e. you cant flash the firmware because of a version mismatch,like it was in my case)
It was kinda scary when my tab all of a sudden didnt accept the firmware I was able to flash before.
But I guess the OTA update changed the version,so I had to find a firmware that matches that.
Im quite sure yours isnt hard brick as well,just be patient,there is almost always a way to fix it !!
Just curious. I own a sm-t710. WiFi model but have similar issue. I keep getting error in Odin under boot. Is that the error you were getting?
Not the same error. Odin tell me it is all OK but I can't came out from the bootloop. I can reach only the black and white screen or download mode, not in recovery.
have you tried to flash twrp and tried again to get into recovery ??

I have twrp working but just can't flash with odin. Maybe I will try other firmwares to see if that works. I will also try to copy them to sd card and flash with twrp. At work now so will try tonight.

It's a bit pointless stating you get an error in Odin without actually providing any screenshots or information as to what the error is.

yes i try but don't work. odin say it is all ok with the recovery but i continue to be stucked in logo screen.
i think one way it is to force recovery mode from odin but i don't know how.
maybe somone have any idea about it?

The firmware is being rejected because it is not compatible with your device. Download the exact firmware for your device region.
Firmware is correct for my device and region. Thank you for the response though

Odin only rejects images if the signature is wrong or it is corrupted.
Seeing as it passed the md5 check it must be the wrong firmware for your device. I suggest you flash the OJ4 firmware.
If it isn't then you have big problems as the only other explanation is a broken emmc.
Which country did you buy this tablet?
As far as firmware seems correct. Got it from Sam's mobile. Hope the broken emmc is not the case. If it is can that be fixed? Damn. Tablet will be a week old tomorrow

Please answer the question. Which country did you buy this device?
If it's USA then you need XAR (CELLULAR SOUTH)
Damn. I think I was using unknown. I'm at work now but hopefully ur right.

I dropped it off at local repair shop which deals with iPhones and android. I just called them and they said they couldn't do anything. Do I have any options besides using it as a paper weight. Anyone that deals with these repairs?,, I will try to flash XAR file when I get home but with work can't spend too much time on it. I'm running Windows on a mac mini and that is where I have Odin installed. Do you think that may be an issue?
