[Q] Galaxy S3 , Strange Errors - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey Guys , so today i have a very very strange error to report ,
It occured on my Galaxy S3 and started almost 3 weeks ago ago with some apps disappearing from the phone but easily beeing reeinstalled (noticed it because it affected my Launcher (Nova Launcher) about 1 week ago the well known UID´s inconsisten issue begann to show up , however no new apps have been installed to the device in at least 2 months and it was pretty much a standard setup ( not even rooted)
the device started crashing several times during random use ( with the interesting exception of ongoing calls)
After each reboot the UID´s inconsitent error wash shown , after 1 day suddenly the phone lost all user Settings ( passwords ,Launcher settings and Contact information , yet none of the data , only the user storage was affected , the UID´s inconsistent error was still beeing shown .
then yesterday the phone got stuck entirely
now the device seems to operate for about 1 second after power , leading to it beeing stucked on the Galaxy S3 screen when starting normaly and the battery loading screen when connecting to Power ( it is not active long enough to determine battery levels , the waiting circle is in it´s starting positon )
booting into recovery mode and Download mode is sitll possible , safe boot is not responsive.
if i start Android System Recovery (<3e>)
a string of near identical errors show up in the following scheme :
E:failed to mount /cache ( No such file or directory)
E:failed to mount /data( No such file or directory)
and so on
when i try factory reset the error is
E:format_volume: make_ext4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk012
Should i try reinstall the device with Odin or is this a lost cause that requires a hardware fix ( or probably scrapping the device concidering the age)
i am looking forward to your help

Yes it is 4.1.2 , and it is the standard international version without sim lock( in case that makes a difference)

Try and flash stock again with odin, once i get on the comp ill past you a link to read up on.

Sounds like it maybe this

If flashing stock with odin does not help try the rescue firmware then im sorry but im out of ideas.

A strange kind of BOOTLOOPs I need professional help!

Hi guys!
It is a bit crazy story so I will give you some details about it ...
I have an Ace 3 Duos GT-S7272 crazy device. I used to have so many issues with it but managed to solve it such as when I encrypted the external SDcard and it was the stupidest thing to do in an Android (cause it didn't actually encrypt a shi*) it just caused my phone to stuck in a bootloop as long as any SDcard is in it, remove it and all will work fine
- ((I somehow managed to fix it and it worked with SDcard but it used to reboot once then on the second boot it was almost perfect!))
- one day out of a sudden, stuck in a strange bootloop!! it boots fine to the startup and I can use it normally for 2 to 4 seconds and it REBOOTS again and again!
- I wiped cache didn't work ,,, still bootlooping
- I tried Safe Mode the same bootlooping
- I am leaving the Factory Reset option as my last resort and I am seeking your help guys so I don't lose my really important information on it !
- it is rooted ((but as I googled around I get the stock menu of Vup+M+power))
- I don't have a back up ((I have bad experiences with Backups))
- I strongly think that it can be saved without losing my information, cause it starts up normally for few seconds ((2 to 4)) and I could change things like Airplane Mode on/off
I really appreciate any help guys,,, I have been googling for days about this

Probably dead SGS2, how to restore the data from int SD

Hi. I have a problem with my I9100. Half a year ago it fell into the puddle. It's seemed to be working through this time, but now the problem probably occurs. I was using Omni 4.4, 2 day ago, when I was trying to launch Snapchat, it suddenly shut down (no FC, no loading screen "Shutting down"). I was trying to awake it, at a lot of attemps only few succeeded (but SGS2 was working, idk, 5 minutes?, then again). I went into CWM, tried to full wipe, flash another custom (culdn't finish the task, because it also shut down). The same when it was connected to charger, nothing changed. When I returned to home I tried to flash him by ODIN. Flashing was done, but SGS also stuck on "Samsung". Now I still can't launch it correctly, but I am trying to restore my data from int SD. I can see in recovery the contain of int SD (for example I can flash ROM from it), but I can't connect my phone to PC by taping "mount SD Card" or sth similar-there is no reaction. So, is there any possibility to get my data back? Or repair my phone (I'm aware thath it's probably dead)? Thx in advance, guys.
P.S.-sorry for language mistakes

can you go to stock recovery now?
If so, do a wipe data/factory reset, then reboot system

I solved my issue by restoring Lollipop (v.39) with the tool from the wiko website and then performing the update again; the phone started again (at v.41) and I was able to download Marshmallow from the next system update.
Issue was probably caused by some configuration or application.
Still slowly downloading Marshmallow now, so cannot say anything about the next update, but I guess that will go well, since the phone is reset now.
Just to follow up: Marshmallow is working fine on my Wiko Fever, much better than Lollipop. Amazing update.
Instructions for others after having read some comments from other people experiencing issues with the upgrade:
- BACKUP all your data before upgrading from Lollipop to Marshmallow, as if you would buy a new phone; I luckily did, as I wanted to set the microSD from removable to internal
- remove the microSD and (after having a backup of all your data as per step above) format the card as FAT32 on your PC; better to have a clean MicroSD card for after the upgrade I think
- reboot the phone in recovery mode and do a: wipe cache+reset to factory settings
- once the phone is reset and started, proceed with upgrading to Marshmallow
- don't know if needed after the upgrade to do an additional wipe cache+factory settings reset, doesn't harm to do it though
- be unhappy for the hours lost in restoring the phone data + apps + reconfigure everything
- be happy of the improved phone software
Questions upon questions.
So, i got the notification for the update last week, and i saved it until today to install it. The file downloaded was just 7 mb, i had enough battery for the intallation of the update (30% recomended by the software), something got messed up and an error message with the dead android character appeared. I know i lost all my things contacts and sd card... tried to hard reset the damn thing and nothing. I already googled the problem and i found nothing similar to what i get, i'm stuck in the recovery screen and the phone doenst shut down, every time i force it, it just boots back up after 15 30 seconds. I got to be honest i tought it was just another update but aparently its a "new" operating androind system. They could have told me with a update log or something...

Possible to recover or extract user data from my A10?

Long story short....eh.....?!!
My Samsung Galaxy A10 (SM-A105FN) got wet during a rainy bikeride! At first it still worked - but then started to show a yellow triangle with exclamation point (charging problem?), restarting and ending up in Android Recovery (the one with only three options - Try again, Factory data reset and View recovery logs) saying Can't load Android system, Reboot Recovery Cause is: Unable to disable quotas on dev/block/platform because system/bin/tune2fs is missing.
So, not able to get into system and turn on USB debugging etc...
Current stock firmware PDA: A105FNXXU6BUC3 (Android 10)
Tried to install new firmware via Apply update from ADB and SD card but both failed saying Failed: Out of memory.
With Odin I got PASS! flashing BL+AP+CP+HOME_CSC with latest stock fimware PDA: A105FNXXS7CVB1 (Android 11) - but still in Recovery loop now saying Reboot Recovery Cause is: [set_policy_failed / data/app]
The phone is not rooted nor bootloader unlocked.
I don't care about the phone (budget) - but I really do need my own data back!!
Is there a way without losing data? TWRP??

In trying to be helpful, all I can do is point you to this thread where I personally organized in one place over 200 similar threads (almost) exactly like yours (where all had an unresponsive screen - but most were due to being dropped).
What is the best XDA solution to control Android on the PC & recover data over Wi-Fi when the user suddenly has an unresponsive broken screen?​

Probably - or, definitely - I'm screwed....!!!
also TWRP supports MTP
