I'm trying to check for software updates but when I go to settings>about phone>system updates it just sits there stuck at "Checking for available software update". Previously when I did this it would usually tell you if there is no software update or find one and start the download? I haven't rooted or altered the software on my handset at all? My software version is 651.73.30.XT910.Retail.en.EU and I've read that there is a new version out now?
Temporary solution :
Clear cache.
I am using GNU/Linux with adb+fastboot only methods.
Method 1:
Code:
$ adb reboot bootloader
$ fastboot erase cache
$ fastboot reboot
Method 2:
1) Put the phone into recovery mode either by
1a)
Code:
$ adb reboot recovery
1b) or power + vol up + down combo... and select recovery
2) Wait until triangle and ! mark appeared.
3) Push Vol up + vol down
4) Select 'wipe cache partition' with power button
5) Wait and select reboot with power button.
Good luck, and do it at your own risk.

Tried to get into recovery mode but when I tried the power + vol up + down combo it just restarted the phone? Anyway the problem is fixed now, seems it wasn't working because I had background data disabled. Running 651.167.26.XT910.Retail.en.EU now
1) Power off ,wait until completely shutdown.
2) While holding Vol up + Vol down, push Power button until boot menu appears.
In this mode, Vol down is for menu selection, and Vol up is for entering the mode.
Good Luck.

I got a tablet device (Omega OT107) I've rooted it using
Code:
ro.kernel.qemu
method.
Next I'm triying to flash Custom Recovery and my problems started here.
What I've tried:
1.
Code:
flash_image recovery
- no success process of flashing never ends
2. Install bootmenu to /data/bootmenu
3. Installed 2 different 2Init's
None of this worked or even had an impact on how device works (it always boots in android correctly).
I've tried to boot it to fastboot mode to flash recovery from there but there is a problem that I have.
Volume(up or down) + Power buttons starts device to Android not to bootloader (I've read you need to remove and reinsert battery to make it work, but device has a build in batery and needs to be taken apart to remove it so I did not tryed it)
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
- boots to what I think is a bootloader (screen is black(no light is comming out of it)) when connected to Windows PC it is seen as Android Bootloader Interface (Android-SDK driver).
Code:
fastboot devices
does not discover any devices, clicking volume or power button does nothing.
Code:
adb reboot recovery
- boots devices it what seems to be useless recovery mode. At start there is a standing android dude with fireball on his chest, and imidietly changes to a lying position with his chest oppened and an exclamation mark comming out of it (I've red it is ok and I need to press Volume(down/up) + Power buttons to open recovery menu but it does not happen).
My question is:
Is it normal to some devices bootloader to look like mine? How to make it discoverable to fastboot?
I had this issue and I fixed with "press all the buttons!" and suddenly I sow recovery menu...to factory reset. if it doesn't work repeat with rebooting with pin
Does someone knows a way how to hard reset this thing?? ^^
about firmware
Any idea where find the firmware for this tablet?
Mine is now freeze on recovery logo
hard reset OT107
1.Turn off our tablet.
2 We press the MENU button at the same time + POWER HOUSE click and hold
3.Wait until the Android image.
4.Then VOL + button and the POWER and appears to us to Recovery Mode
5.Navigation is Vol-i + and confirmed by pressing POWER.
Hi all
I have used search and I can find results that pertain to other devices but not specifically Galaxy S3 (I9300).
I've been trying to flash a new ROM onto my phone.
To do this:
- I rooted the phone using Odin and installed CF Root + CWM package.
- After doing this, I did the 3 button reset to enter Recovery mode. However, the phone always entered into Download Mode (Odin Mode / "Downloading... Do not turn off target !!"). I was never able to enter Recovery mode.
- So I couldn't use the Recovery mode to install the ROM.
- Instead, I used ROM Manager to do the install (Cyanogen 9) but I did this without clearing the cache.
The result:
- Now if I leave the phone to boot, it enters Cyanogen 9 boot screen but stuck here looping.
- if I try to enter recovery mode to clear the cache, it only gives me download screen.
I've tried a few different uploads to get recovery mode (and it successfully uploads the files I send using Odin) however the phone still enters download mode after the flash.
I'm worried about doing the wrong steps if I follow advice from other sub-forums relating to other devices.
Any tips?
Many thanks.

The three button reset is power button + Home + Volume up to enter into recovery..
You are going to Download mode because you are pressing Power button + Home + Volume down key ...
Read this guide
Recovery mode is volume up while pressing home and then power.
Try this first and see if you can access recovery, if not then flash Philz recovery via odin and then boot into it to clear data, cache etc.
Make sure you read and understand how to use both odin and recovery before you start, otherwise you can brick your phone.

Thanks MoonBlade.
Funnily, I was pressing power + home + volume down to get download mode.
I tried pressing power + home + volume up, which successfully got me into recovery mode.
Strangely reversed.
This seems to have resolved the problem.

Hello,
My xt916 bricked for no reason. It is not rooted. Do not respond to any commands such power, power + volume down, power + volume up. The only sign of life is when connected to charger or USB the back home and menu buttons on the bottom light in white.
Searching for solutions I tried to flash stock again with MTK-RSD Lite ver 6.1.6. Used rom XT916_2_26D_2014_A02_MP.mzf
The device appears as connected and enters download mode. The process completes and it shows PASS at the end.
However no sign of life afterwards. Same as before.
Tried to enter recovery mode or fastboot via ADB but when I type adb devices nothing is shown.

Thanks for the tip. Already tried this. The phone only lights up when connected by USB or charger. Whether is connected or disconnected (with battery only) it does not respond at all to any key combinations.
The only noticeable thing it is when connected by USB with RSD Lite software when I try power volume down the phone enters download mode and I can flash a rom.

thanks. gonna give it a shot. I figure out it would not be a very simple solution since I've tried many other solutions until get here.
So I've been putting custom ROMs on devices for years and I've never had this problem before.
Problem: I can't get into Recovery (TWRP) after I've flashed it but before MIUI restores stock recovery.
I've tried:
1) Holding Vol Up + Power as I hit "fastboot reboot"<Enter> in fastboot
2) Running the power down while in fastboot, giving it a little charge, and then holding Vol Up + Power
3) Locking the bootloader and trying both 1 & 2 again
Result
- Without locking the bootloader I get the "unlocked bootloader" message, have to hit Vol UP and then it boots into System
- With a locked bootloader it ignores my "Vol Up + Power" altogether and just boots into System
For the fun of it I tried Vol Down + Power (to get into fastboot) and had the same problem. Funny thing is if I flash back to stock, VOL UP + POWER gets me into recovery just fine.
Any ideas?

So I figured it.. reading a post in the MIUI forum (XDA won't let me include the link), I found the following:
Turn off your Mi Pad 2, Press power button to turn on Mipad 2, when MI LOGO appeared, immediately Hold down VOL UP and VOL DOWN until you see the yellow line DNX FASTBOOT MODE appears, release the buttons.

My problem was I was pressing both buttons at the same time as I do with my other devices. Solution is 1) Press power button, 2) wait for MI logo to appear in the center of the screen, 3) Press VOL UP. Voila!
Hi,
My grandfather locked his chinese tablet without knowing how.
Each time we start the tablet we arrive on an input field asking for a password we don't have.
I can't found how to reboot in recovery, however I can boot to fastboot mode with power and vol up keys.
The tablet is branded as a Kliver Klipad KL3889, but there is no other information on the vendor website (klipad DOT fr)
The user manual only says A64 Quad Core CPU and Mali 400MP GPU.
The tablet is running Android 8.1 Go edition, and shows up as "Onda (unverified)" with 1f3a:1006 id according to lsusb command.
When booted in fastboot mode, it shows up with a different id on lsusb :
1f3a:1010 Onda (unverified)
I can not reach the tablet using adb, and when I tried a fastboot
reset using the following commands :
Code:
fastboot -i 0x1f3a erase cache
fastboot -i 0x1f3a erase data
fastboot -i 0x1f3a erase userdata
all I get is the following error :
FAILED (remote: :secure mode,fastboot limited used)

What are my options ? Is there a way to fully reset this device ?
perhaps web search: JTAG + tablet details. Some disassembly required. SuperUser has previously recommended Ort JTag.

As I previously said, I can't access recovery mode. I've tried all keys combinations I could find, and the only one working (Vol Up + power) boot into fastboot mode, not recovery mode.

Hi , try this :
1) Turn off the tablet
2) Hold "Volume +" and turn on the tablet
3) Once you see KLIPAD logo on your display, release the "ON" button (or power) while holding "Volume +"
4) You must arrive on the Android logo, and you will probably get the message "No command"
5) You can let go of "Volume +"
And that's where it becomes interesting:
6) Press "ON" (or power), and while holding the button, a pulse on "Volume +"
7) You finally arrive at the menu of restoration
You navigate through the menu by means of the volume keys, and the "ON" (or power) button acts as validation.
Choose "data / factory reset", confirm
Then "reboot system now" and you're done, if that doesn't work try the same process just with VOl- , also what you can try is :
1. Turn off your device
2. Press and hold Vol - and power button , and once you see Logo , fast release both buttons and see if you are into Recovery mode.

Thanks.
It works like you said until step 4 where I get the android logo, but no "No command" message.
Then when I hold ON button while pressing VOL+ it doesn't do anything.
