Hello Guys ,
i just would like to ask you that if I installed cm 10 can I go back to stock ics
or i can't because downgrade might damage my device.
Thanks & Best Wishes
You can go back anytime you want. Take a Nandroid backup before you flash. Good luck!
And if you don't have nandroid backup you can always download the stock firmware from sammobile .com and flash via Odin
I've done this successfully to fix some issues I was having. :good:

Yes windows explorer and in MY Computer.Also will not connect to Kies.
Just to cover the obvious, did you go into SETTINGS > STORAGE and click the 3 dots at the top right corner of the screen which will show "USB computer connection". Click that and then check the box for "Media device (MTP)". Then try connecting your tablet to the computer.

Are you sure your friend didn't delete the rom after installing it on your device? Installing a rom should not delete the file from your computer since that whole operation takes place on the tablet unless you push it from the computer. Did your friend flash the rom in recovery or do something different?
Re: the Kies issue, this has come up in many threads before. You can try reinstalling Kies to see if its a bad USB driver. Some ppl have said tho that you need to revert to stock in order for Kies to recognize the device...it might take even that. If you're willing to start fresh and flash stock firmware to find out that is a choice you can make

Hi,
After installing Alienware rom kies doesn't connect anymore,
i have pushed new kiesair.apk kieswifi.apk and libKiesDataRouter.so
and kies still will not connect to the device.
Im wondering if there are any more files i need, or settings to get kies to work with my current rom? or if i need to set something up?
Thanks,

you may need the MtpApplication.apk to get it working.. make sure that the USB debugging is unchecked if you want to use kies...

Hi !
Digging some old thread here, i was stuck with the same problem, how to restore a KIES backup to a non samsung ROM.
As far as I know, there are third party tools that can deal with your problem.
For example, you can try mobiletrans (google that), it can save and restore a lot of stuff from mobile to mobile or from a KIES backup, but it isn't brand specific.

Alright so in the middle of setting up my phone to flash, i formatted system, boot, wiped data and factory reset and what not then accidently selected reboot system. For some odd reason after that it just got stuck on the vibrant screen. I cant get it into recovery but I can get it into download mode however when trying to odin back to stock my computer does not recognize my phone and odin does not pick it up. I was running MIUI-NB "smart meets smoothness" and have GB bootloaders from using passion v8. any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Hmm format /boot and reboot was bad, at least you got download mode so not hard brick.
Make sure you have proper drivers is all I can think of (some AOSP rom need nexus driver)

Try this..
1. Start menu -> Right click My computer (or computer if you're on Vista +) click on manage.
2. Find something you think your phone is (It's usually an unknown driver.. it might say Vibrant.. or something.)
3. Right click it.
4. Update driver.
5. Install from a list or specific location.
6. Don't search. I will choose the drivers to install.
7. Hard disk..

TUTORIAL FOR UPDATEING P500 to GB(baseband update), ROOT THE PHONE, FLASH CWM RECOVERY
I made this tutorial because i took me 4 h of intensive searching for the methods above ,and i hate to search for this kind of things and im sure that im not the only one , with this thread i will redirect you to the topics that you will need to follow, or i will explain to you what to do.
FIRST: Install the USB drivers from http://www.lg.com/us/support/mobile-support download PC Sync, we need the app for the latest USB drivers, or download the USB drivers alone.
Then go in your mobile, in Settings/Applications/Development and enable USB Debugging then go back under Applications Settings make sure that you got checked Unknown Sources
NOTE: I`M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE THAT MY BUILD MAY CAUSE TO YOUR DEVICE, TRY IT ON YOUR OWN RISK!
NOR ME OR OTHER DEVELOPER CAN NOT BE NAMED AS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE MALFUNCTION/S THAT MAY OCCUR.And also that i dont have a P500 i have a Galaxy Mini and i build just for tass brunch
You are a noob? you dont know really where to start? ###DONT PANIC###!!!! first step is to check if you got android 2.3.3, witch is also known as Gingerbread, (how you do that? you go into Settings/About Phone and scroll down and you will see Android version.)
If you are on Android 2.2.2 or older then you must follow THIS simple tutorial, and you will update your phone to ver 2.3.3 and the baseband to so you can skip step one.
1. GB Baseband update
Now, if you got Gingerbread you must make sure that you got the latest baseband so it will work with all the custom roms that you are planing to install. Check THIS topic for that,and on the buttom you will se an image, if that basebang is identic with yours or similar, skip this step if NOT then download the P500-v20G-baseband.7z on the buttom of the page, and read to post so you will know what to do...its so easy.
TIP: Will will get 2 popups with OK and CANCEL, and the OK Button its blocked, dont press CANCEL wait 4-7 seconds before you can press the OK.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
2. GB ROOT
First you must download the SuperOneClick app , extract it where you want, the run the SuperOneClick.exe from the folder, the app will open and then select ROOT , in the right, you will should see a succes message or ok in the console, reboot your phone then you will see in the menu the Super User icon.
TIP: If get you and error, then pull the battery out of the phone, disconnect the USB cable the power the phone back on and connect the cable and try again

Rom manager caused boot loop
Hi.. I installed Rom Manager onto my friends p500 (it was rooted earlier). but custom recovery was not installed..so i flashed the latest cmw through the rom manager app.
After which i selected to create a back up.. The mobile restarted (to enter the cmw recovery for backup operation).. but soon after the restart the mobile got stuck at the LG Logo.. I waited for about 10mins and it did not respond. Then i removed the battery and then power it on.. but it is stuck at the LG logo.. I am unable to get into custom recovery.. (power+home+volumeup).
Also, Mobile is not detected when connected to pc.

Hi mate,
I have had the same problem.Your USB port doesn't work because it's bent. So get a toothpick or needle, get the battery out and bend your usb port a bit down (you should have ratio 2:1 of space between usb connection to usb port)

There used to be a bunch of CWM flashable stock roms in a thread in the General section. I don't think there'd be anything 'recent' firmware-wise (probably ICS/early JB, you never know though), but the name of the game is to get your phone working so that doesn't matter. Do an XDA/Google search (sorry, don't have a link).
Firstly your phone rooted?
If you are not able to connect to pc then make sure you have usb drivers installed on your pc.
If rooted then pls do a new zip install and bring your phone to working status

Hello everyone,
I tryed multiple time to flash my phone (original ROM) with Odin and other software. Every time the connection cannot be established. I have tried with different computers and different cables, including the original one. I came to the conclusion that Micro USB connector in my phone is broken. I can still recharge but data transfer is not possible.
I have an SD card where i can put a ROM in order to update my phone. But if i'm correct that isn't possible if I don't have ClockworkMod Recovery.
So finaly my question: Is it possible to root install a custom recovery without a cable and without root?
So in oder words: If it's not rooted and i have the Stocked recovery I can't do anything without the usb connector.
Version out of the box:
Device: GT-I9300
Android version 4.3
Baseband I9300BOUGMK3

You need to look for a custom recovery that can be flashed using the update.zip facility in stock. I'm not aware of one but happy searching.

Then you have to flash a "CF-root.tar" file with odin. Then your stock kernel will be rooted, su will be installed and also a custom recovery.
In most cases it will be CWM..... ..... Happy Flashing :angel:

Sounds great, but i can't find any signed custom recovery... I'm now downloading the whole internet on my PC so i can perform a grep...
The issue is that i can't use ODIN because my USB connector is broken.

Thats r8
But there could or is the possibility to root phones with an "odin root apk" .But i think one should not do it in this way
cause you could break your device....The download mode with an odin program and an USB connection to your phone
is the only way.
Same problem.
