Hello. First I will say I have searched the forum for this but couldn't find the answer for my device. The answer might be the same as the other but wanted to check before I screw up my phone any further. I'm a total novice so please bare with me. I was attempting to root my Note 3 per galaxynote3root.com/galaxy-note-3-root/how-to-root-galaxy-note-3/[/url] . I followed the instructions and everything seemed to go as it should. When I was finished a bunch of apps were missing and I couldn't access text, google play, or settings (maybe others as well). I re-did the root process again but still had the same results. I then tried to do a factory reset which got me where I am right now which is stuck at the yellow Sprint screen. Can someone point me in the right direction? Can I reload factory setting via my computer? Can I take it to a Sprint store and let them factory reset? Am I screwed? Any help you could give me would be appreciated.
Do you know if you were on kit kat or lollipop?

I would do an odin of whatever firmware you were on and start over.

So I got my phone working with rsd light, problem its it reinstalled all my apps, I an unable to update anything. I'm no longer rooted obviously. I can't factory reset the phone from the privacy menu. And even in the android recovery it stays at the triangle. Apps in the market say insufficient memory when I have tons of all memory left. Resetting the phone unger the privacy manu doesn't go anywhere when I hit the button. Also keep getting geolocation problem on my beautiful widgets update.
At the triangle(recovery) press down volume up and down at the same time

Please use an SBF, I will edit this post with more info by 3pm Eastern Standard.
EDIT 1: If all else fails, go to your local Sprint Customer Advantage Repair Center.

EDIT 2: I not will add to this post because you have already used SBF, and know how to.
If still face problem after hard reset, charge battery and try flashing sbf again. Actually it shouldn't be happen like that. Try to erase data from moto-fastboot....

Keep using the old version until the new version takes effect, after a factory reset, it takes a while.
I say this from experience, use the old green version for a while, just browse around, and restart the phone. Use the green one, and close it out, soon you will have the new version of the Android Market, if not just find it online.
Hi guys and geeks, its time to work your magic and fire up your amazing brain cells. I am totally new here and its my first post, so please dont be that hard at me if ill screw something up
So my problem is after a 2 weeks usage of international version of my SGS3 i got a big problem. It started totally from nothing, to be specific it stopped through day.
Yesterday morning i was updating 1 app from Google play and i left my phone on desk.
I got back to it in evening and found out that 4 apps cannot be updated from unknown reason. I tried manual start of download- nothing, it will not start to download. just rolling the bar. I also found that i cant download any new app from GPlay.
I made a factory reset of phone today. Set it up, and its ready to go. IT STILL CANT DOWNLOAD THAT APPS. Why? Wifi is working normally (ONLY WIFI), can browse websites and so on.
Anyone help ??
Goto settings/Application manager/Google Play Store and select clear data and cache then see if it works.
Just google server problem mybe. Just wait

I cleared data cache already,and it doesnt worked. Server problem? HUH.... maybe.... Though i highly doubt its server problem because i was asking a few my friends with android phones about this and their market is ok.
So got any ideas? Cuz im now stuck with empty phone after fact.reset and i cant work on it though.
Bump! Any suggestions?
Goto App manager again and uninstall updates.
Nope, i also combined it with phone restart. It cant download apps or update them.
go to settings, accounts and sync, remove google account. Add account again and it should work.

Did it twice now. Result? Phone likes to roll bars. But thats all he wants to do. Still cant start download.
So i contacted Samsung Customer Support about this and i described it at whole. The guy said he would do exact same thing and i have done good. He gave an advice of taking out the battery for 15 mins - it would reset the device and pull it in and try. Still nothing.
Any idea out there? Because if i will not be able to do more, im sending this damn phone to for service repair because i have 2 years warranty. This is truly f*cking unbelievable. My first Android device. Upgraded from HTC HD2. 600€ phone. Crap.
Had a similar problem a few days back where it just gave an error message. Went into settings / all apps and cleared data from Google services framework. Rebooted and it was fixed.
Edit: just remembered, the above solution may have helped but it didn't completely fix my problem. Had to reboot into recovery, the in the advanced tab had to run 'fix permissions ', then all was fine. Only thing I could think of that may have caused the problem was flashing and testing cm10 before restoring my backup.

Tried Google Service Framework, didnt helped.
So i got into that recovery mode but there was no advanced tab. Only something like reboot now, wipe cache, wipe partition, factory reset .. Tried Wipe cache, and so on... Didnt helped....
Check your memory. Make sure there's at least 600-700mb left. My S3 kept giving me update errors whenever my internal memory fell below 500mb

Bro, no offense, but i have clean phone after factory reset with around 400mb of data in it.

Well if you want to start fresh, flash a CF root kernel and wipe cache, dalvik, system and then a factory reset. Flash a new rom after that. Don't reboot your recovery while doing this because you've wiped 'system' . What ever problems you had should have gone. I normally follow this procedure to make sure for a full wipe
Hope this helps

Sir, i have truly no idea what are you talking about, im just getting that i have to load onto phone some loader and then flash some new rom which im 100% not going to do since i have fresh 2 year warranty and im not planning to break it.
I have already decided. Im calling authorized service center about details for sending my phone to get repaired. Either they will fix it, or ill get a new phone. Only good and Better.

Hi, I had the same problem as you and I 'fixed' it by Stopping the 'Downloading' rolling bar and then resuming it. I found that fixes it
Let me know if this works :good:
I wanted to try it but there is no pause button though, look for yourself

All right, there has to be a way to get this working since I had the same problem too
Try this :
Turn your phone off and on
Open Play Store and go into the screen where it says "X Updates available" and they are listed in rows
Click Update All and then the blue loading line starts to animate. Wait for a few seconds then click the X next to the first item that is downloading to stop it
Click Download/Resume again
It should start downloading.
The above steps worked for me, I got the S3 day before yesterday and I came across this problem for about 10 minutes 'til I did the steps above
Let me know how it goes :fingers-crossed:
Long story short had to buy another note 2 after mine took a swim. Bought another note 2 off Craigslist. Totally forgot to check to see if it was rooted. Tried signing in my google account and it wont sync anything or load up the google play store. All the google apps force close constantly and I'm unable to sync my contacts. The google play store keeps telling me there is no connection. Help!
Root will not cause it to function like this. The first thing I would try is to do a factory reset. This will make sure everything is erased. If that doesn't work, look at the stickies and use ODIN to restore the phone back to 100% stock. As long as the phone has a clean ESN, this should make everything 100% perfect.
Good luck
Its a custom recovery on here. Clockwork I believe.

OK? You can still factory reset with a unlocked rooted phone.

Now I know this seems like something that can be fix through read multiple articles, but all the answers I have seen involve being able to use the phone.
My case: The phone have just been reset and I am stuck at the start screen, some how there is a random lock now on the factory reset, and my computer only recognize it being plugged in when I'm in Odin.
So I have no clue what to do. If I am not giving any useful info on my problem ask me what I am leaving out.
Try this posted method and let it know if it helps.
Well my main problem isnt getting into recovery its the there is a password. But i think i can fix the password if I can get Google framework services to start up again but the phone wont run it. So i need to solve this

I need help, I've been looking through forums and forums, skimming to no resolve. I didn't want to ask for help but alas i am here, on my knees, please, anybody, help me
alright enough with the dramatics
about a month ago i had the bright idea to root my phone, at the time i was on me7. done with very little problems, all of which were solved.
I download a few root apps, including freedom (allowing you to make iap for free) and an app that allows your phone to download apps from another country, like the app market enabler but that wasn't the one i was using .
ota mi1 comes out and naturally through my excitement i update with out reading forums about what may happen to my phone, nor do i reset the market info back to Verizon usa.
now that im on mi1 my root is broken but the phone works properly minus 2 situations i have no access to google play market, every attempted to access the market is thwarted with a warning "unfortunately, Google play store has stopped" and all i can do is press OK. the other is that i have the custom boot screen when i turn on my phone.
i deal with this small inconvenience for a few weeks, slowly growing more irritated and my own stupidity.
Verizon then releases OTA MJ7 and up naturally update. no difference. I was hoping at least the market would work again
so i take matters in to my own hands (again) and try to hard reset my phone. market still no works, custom still exists
i try a few other things but no changes. finally i turn to odin and try to flash a stock restore. but the odin fails the second i press start.
I throw my hands in the air and run away screaming. im frustrated and need help, is there anything i can do to get the market to work and the phone back to stock

A great help! thank you so much, being a noob to all this has been overwhelming and interesting so I'm very happy you came along and helped me out.
my phone is almost back to normal, im assuming there's no way to get around the custom boot screen is there?
regardless if there is or not, thank you again for your help
