trick & tip don't know how it worked but it did - G2 General

Ok I can't believe this even worked but ok so I couldn't get knock on to work after flashing a new version of simple kernel on malladus Rom then he revised the kernel into two one with knock code and one without so I flashed the new one with knock code still couldn't get knock on to work with any kernel except dorimanx so I flashed cloudy g3 Rom and flashed the new simple kernel and knock on worked so anyway dumbass me thought ok knock on code might be in the firmware so I decided to to copy the firmware from cloudy g3 and paste it into my malladus backup needless to say that didn't work I got stuck on the boot screen no matter what Rom I restored our anything thing else I tried and I
couldn't get into download mode only fastvoot so I couldn't restore it back to stock using the lg tool so I figured I was f~ed. But I tried something that I never thought was going to work I took a Rom zip I had and deleted the system and boot from inside of it and took the vs98024a ota Update file and put it in the rom zip and then booted into recovery and flashed it well it flashed but I still couldn't boot it still would get stuck on the boot screen so I restored cloudy g3 backup again wiped both caches and low and behold it booted I don't know how but it worked unbelievable but happy me so if you get stuck I a similar situation I hope this helps you
Well I restored malladus ROM just to see if the knock code would work now but sorry to say it still doesn't so if anyone has any ideas on how to get the knock on feature to work again I'm all ears

Pretty much self explanatory
Camera was working yesterday
Today its not :'(
I had this a few days back - turns out i'd been using the phone in 'torch' mode, and it had turned itself off after a while, but obviously didn't release the led function back to the camera.
When I cycled the torch back on and off again it was fine. I imagine rebooting would do the same thing?
Hope that helps a little!
yes, just reboot the phone and it will work again, had the same thing
have tried multiple reboots and even taken the battery out! not too sure what im supposed to do....may just reflash the original rom again to see if it makes a difference

just a question, but had you changed the lcd density before the camera failed? if so, did you adjust it below 182?
nope, lowest i set it to was 210, but that screenshot was taken at the norm 240
ok its happened again!!! i flashed the latest update and rebooted and it was fine, camera app loaded up fine...once i installed a theme it was saying the same message!!!! is this a hardware fault? i can hear the camera clicking every time it switches on
Just flashed the original firmware back onto it, the o2 one and its saying the same thing.....is this a hardware fault?
***************EDIT******************************
So i did a factory reset and the camera really is working now
anybody have a clue why this is happening? its slightly annoying....going to debrand and root to see if i can locate the problem...

[Q] Cant wipe data fact reset --password lock

I have a sgs2 att
it was messing up and couldnt really do anything on home screen, so i tried reseting it in settings. now it needed a password to factory reset . so I thought reflashing the rom would fix it. I used odin and flashed to a stock unrooted rom, via the 1 click odin flash when its done [passed] your are to factory data reset but when i atempted to in e3 console it asked for a password again ..
if somebody calls me or txt me i can respond and get passed the lock screen onlt to answer the call or txt.but i cant call out or log in.
what do i do now.
Ok !!! i fixed it, this should probbly be a sticky i dont know..
this is what was happening when i was in e3 to wipe factory reset.

after pressing wrong password a few times a bit scared as to what would happen next It finally said wrong password will remove all data. I entered wrong password again and it wiped factory reset it !!
so enter wrong passwords bout 4 times allowed wiping. why couldn't i find this info any ware before ?
Crazy stuff. Never heard of that happening. Sounds like the only thing is to boot into download mode and use odin to flash stock or stock rooted.

I've never run into this, nor have I ever seen a post about it. My guess is that very few people here are even familiar with setting a password to lock wipe data/factory reset, and that few if any would know the sequence you just discovered. Glad you got it sorted out.
thanks for post OP
same thing happened to me today and was annoyed by it but thanks to your post i was able to fix it
thanks again
I do believe a sticky or at least honorable mention should be had about this!

Lol. People install apps to protect their security then forget about it and then complain about it doing its job later. Thaaaaats pretty much it. That, or they bought it from someone else who did and they were unaware.

Did you factory reset it? Or it just booted like that. Looks like its in some sort of Clock Work Recovery or soft bricked which is not a big deal. Someone here will help you out soon as i am not a Pro on recovery. Same thing happened to me when i bought a Galaxy S2 a few months back. Just hang tight until some one gives you directions or search the forums.
Try and "Reboot" it while highlighted by hitting the power button. Thats at least how i reboot out of clock work mod for the Att version. Next step prob would be to highlight wipe data/factory reset. But again wait until someone confirms this for ya. Shouldn't be long
Just curious, what did you trade for
all good got it figured out. thanks

[Q] [HELP] [WTSR/SMPL] Bricked SGSII by removing Gmaps

Hey guys,
Pretty desperate here, and I've been searching the forums and other pages on the web for a solution, but nothing yet.
I'm afraid I did something pretty stupid. I wanted to update Gmaps, but Play Store gave me the 'not signed correctly, please delete older version' message. So I tried to uninstall the old Gmaps through Settings, but that didn't work.
Than I had this 'brilliant' idea to just hardcore delete Gmaps through Titanium Backup. Well, I did and... BOOM! Black screen, a short boot loop and after that... nothing.
I took out the battery for about 15 minutes and placed it back in, and now I get this weird message saying 'WTSR/SMPL'.
Phone won't start up in Recovery, only Download mode.
Somebody can help me out here?

Flash a stock rom in download mode with Odin, clean slate. Then re-root your phone & you can restore a backup (if you have one).

Thanks for your response so quick, appreciate it.
BTW, are you sure there is no other way? Did you see this WTSR message before?
No probs. No, I've never seen it. But thinking logically; you have no recovery, the phone won't boot normally & you can only get into download mode. You don't really have any other option other than the one I suggested, do you ?

Not sure. The weird thing is: when I press the home button repeatedly, the screen starts flickering from white to black and back. So there's still something alive, don't you think?

[SOLVED] S10+ Clone boot looping after TWRP attempt!

Hello guys, very cool forum! I'm a new B so please bare a little patience
I had a dusty S10+ clone laying around, so I have tried to TWRP it! Unfortunately, did not thought of backing up firmware at first!
Ended up with a non booting phone! I have tried many MTK6580 firmwares with no luck. It is supposed to be a MT6580 With Android 9, but all the firmware I find are SM-G9700 or 9750, when at the back of the phone is written SM-G9600UD. Dont' think this is relevant since the firmwares are tweaked anyway! Finally found 2 firmwares, one with boot sound volume keys sound but white screen and the other one with black screen, no boot no sound but with recovery menu showing up with correct key pressed (not working) but at least I think this LK.BIN works with this screen! I first tried to use the working lk.bin with the booting firmware but then I get a back light on to off loop with no boot! I know some of you can edit the files to make it work but I have no idea an no knowledge how to do that! The stock firmware is supposed to be MT6580_EMMC_samsung_SM-G9600_9_0_ALPS_L1_MP6_V2_19_HCT6580_WEG_A_L_P55 but I only find SM-G9700 or 9750! I have tried a android 7 once for GM9600 but the LK.BIN in this firmware almost fried the screen! So now I am very careful, any ideas would be welcome.
Thanks in advance!
