I need some serious help... Galaxy S6 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys.
So. As of now, my phone is ****ed. I mean, not completely to the point where it's not working, but to a point that it still affects me. Let me explain my full situation though.
Essentially what started this off, is that I had no internet connection to the play store, and any of the apps associated with it, or downloaded from it. Tried a few things, but no cigar. Since my S6 is rooted, I figured something had went wrong (Note: There is no distinct cause of the connection issues, and I wasn't messing around with root stuff at the time of it happening). I factory reset my phone, and attempted booting it back up again.
From there, it seemed to be fine, until it wanted me to sign into a network. I logged into my router fine, but it could not complete the "Test Connection" stage, or whatever it is called exactly. It also cannot use the play store whatsoever now, and comes up with a "Cannot establish reliable server connection" message. Browser however, works fine. I dont know what to do from here, or to go about solving these issues.
If some way someone out there can guide me through this, I would be eternally grateful. Thank you so much.

I would start with reloading the original firmware via Odin, especially since you have already factory reset and don't need to worry about losing any data at this stage. Always best to get a fresh start and go from there. I would also reset the phone again after reloading.

I tried flashing the firmware with Odin3 3.11, but it continues to fail. I have tried two computers now, as well as other USB ports and such. I have confirmed that I have the right .tar.md5 file for my phone. This is the log that shows up when I start the process:

That doesn't sound good. Could be bad internal memory. I found some info here http://forum.xda-developers.com/chef-central/android/nand-write-start-fail-odin-soluction-t2851096 but your phone might be different. The guys there might be able to provide more details on what to do.

I took a look through that thread... I have no idea where to start. Although I a computer savy, Android and mobile devices is an entire new field to me. Is there any other indications that the NAND is the problem? Because besides the play store, everything else works fine.. Could it be the tar file? or something to do with the PIT? Let me know.

[Q] Galaxy S II wouldn't update with Kies and now it doesn't flash

Hello everyone,
I am not sure whether this is the right place for my question but my Galaxy S II stopped working and I was wondering if anyone might help me?
I tried updating the FW from 2.3 to 4.0 (I'm guessing) through Kies and after about 45 minutes of seeing both screens (PC and Phone) unchanged, I ended up removing the phone. Next, Kies suggested an "Emergency Firmware thingy" (it said it in German so I wouldn't really know how to translate it). Tried again, after 45 minutes gave up once more.
Since then, I downloaded ODIN and tried to follow instructions I found online to flash it (first I tried with Ice-Cream, then with Gingerbread).
Ever since I removed it from Kies, it would only show a phone connected to a PC with a yellow warning triangle in the middle. Whenevery I use the Volume-Menu-Power button, the warning on changing the OS appears and then, when I press "volume up", it shows the green android in the middle and tells me it's downloading and not to turn off the device, though there is no downloading progress.
When I try with ODIN, ODIN recognizes the device on both USB ports - I found md5 files for Germany but every time I start it the Message window says:
<ID:0/007> Added!!
<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..
<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..

and doesn'tget any farther than "cache.img".
I am at a complete loss as to what to do or try. I have had this phone for a year now, this is the first time I tried to update with Kies - the phone had not been rooted or anything else. The phone has no simlock (I don't know if any other information is relevant).
Any ideas or has my phone thus become the infamous brick? *pleasenopleasenopleaseno*
Thanks in advance for your time and patience - in case I've overread a thread with this exact same problems, I apologize and would appreciate if someone could re-direct me. I've already spent so much time looking for solutions, my concentration may have suffered.
Best wishes,
Junivere
Before flashing with Odin, did you kill all Kies processes from Windows task manager? If not, do that and then start flash.
Edit: And since you can access download mode, its not bricked...so you can relax

I9100?
Flash JB.
And try an older ODIN version.
And check kies like the above poster suggested.
Other usb port/usb cable might do the work too.

Thanks for the replies!!!
I stopped all the Kies processes over the task manager before (was that enough?) and tried from both USB ports of my laptop (006 and 007 I guess) with equal results.
I used Odin3 v1.85 - is that too old or too new? Which version should I try?
And I am sooooooooo relieved it's not a brick!!!
Thanks again!
kinda old, try 1.3 or 3.x
And flash siyah v5 just for kicks.
Sent from the little guy
I tried again and I'll try to explain step by step, ok? Maybe you notice something I did wrong?
I killed all the Kies processes in the task manager like before.
I downloaded Odin 3 v.07 and started it. I had "Auto reboot" and "F.Reset time" checked and clicked on "PDA" to add the *.md5 file with the firmware.
I started the phone in the download mode and connected it to the PC, Odin recognized it alright.
I started and the first time, with the USB port in front, it stopped at "cache.img" in the message window.
I tried a different FW file and the other USB port further back and for the first time the phone shows a tiny bit of blue in the progress underneath "Downloading..." but in Odin it is now stuck at "factoryfs.img" for the last ten minutes,
The entire message window says this:

Ok, so now I am starting to get slightly terrified:
When trying to flash Siyah 5 (Siyah-s2-v5.0.1), it stops there:

Keep trying, you'll come around.

Another pc would as well.
Sent from the little guy
Ok, so the Sivyah v5 flash worked when I tried Odin3 v1.3 but I'm still battling with the actual firmware.
Thanks for your help so far, though - I'm really greatful and I'll keep trying.
My mission for today will be finding someone's cable and PC to borrow...
I'll keep you posted, though!
Wow, you are the bestest ever!!!
With a netbook (OS Windows 7) I eventually managed the flash - now I'm reconfiguring everything. I am sooooo relieved!!!!
I have one last question (sorry for being so naive!), though:
Is it still possible with a flashed phone (with the Sivya thing on it) to use Kies to try and update or do automatic updates or do I have to flash all the newer firmware?
Best wishes,
Junivere

Depends on what ROM you are flashing.
For instance, if you flash LS8 you'll get a 22 mb update to get you to LSD.
I would flash LSD straight up tho.
If you don't want a headache with odin no more, feel free to try Mobile Odin, it will perform all the flashing for you.

[Q] i9100 NAND write fail, but in a very strange fashion.

GS II i9100
Note: Warranty is already expired
Before I write anything further, I have been trying to get the most I can out of this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1457458
Sadly, I can't seem to wrap my head around this problem, so here goes:
Yesterday I've found out, that the new CM11 came out. Of course I went off to download it, put it in my phone and started to install it through recovery (I had siyah at that time). Well, it failed, must've been corrupt or something, since I got the error status 7. Anyways, while exiting the install screen, siyah asked me, if I want to repair something, because something may have gotten corrupt (Sorry, can't remember the exact thing). Being the sloppy person I am, I clicked yes.
Five minutes later, after going back to stock firmware, because apparently during the install something did go corrupt, and the phone wouldn't boot, only play the boot sound, I've read, that I need the newest CWM for CM11 to work.
Another five minutes later I'm staring at this:

I've tried changing computers, kicking KIES out through the window, using different USB slots and cables, but to no avail. It just keeps throwing this error at me every time I try to install anything through Odin. The strangest part is, though, that the phone is working perfectly fine.
What could be the problem, and if it is possible, how do I fix it?
Another quick note would be my counter in the download screen of my SII. It's 12 (yeah, I know, I kept forgetting about it, but now, since I'm unable to install anything through Odin, I can't even root the phone and reset the damn thing)
Don't flash nothing to this phone. Be happy it works or get rid of it while it does still works. Seen this before and this is the first stage of mb failure. Trust me don't flash nothing to this phone and get rid of it. If not start reading about the pit file

After losing patience spending hours on the phone I have decided to JTAG it... Ant it worked. The phone is running like a charm now.

[Q] Galaxy Beam i8530, rooted, stuck at logo-screen

Hello
For a couple of weeks now, i've been trying to fix this phone for a friend who studies as an artist. She wanted the Galaxy Beam for presentations and bought one used as they seemingly ain't to be found in the stores any longer.
Originally, the firmware ends at 2.3.6 on this brand, but this one was rooted to be fit with 4.1.2.
The phone bugged and hung in weird ways, so i thought to follow the steps into downgrading it to stock rom for her and see if that would help.
I am no expert, but since i have successfully rooted several phones and tablets earlier with no issues (its pretty straight forward when it works, right), i felt up for the tast.
I have spent a lot of time googling the last couple weeks, and reading a lot of solutions here on these forums, but i can't seem to find this ecact problem, so here goes.
Samsung Galaxy Beam GT.I8530
Odin3 v3.07
Windows 7 and 8 fully updated (tried both)
No matter which Android version i chose, it ends up at the same spot. Stuck at logo screen after first boot.
I have tried both with and without a PIT file, same result.
This last try was with a PIT and Android 4.1.2. (i understand that PIT is not nessessary, as it should be baked within the PDA if it's a single file, but what won't you try eventually, right?)

Thanks for reading! Hope someone feels up for the task
Edit: It might be vital information that the phone will uncharge the battery at logo screen eventually, even when connected to a computer. (5v output) But i believe this is common somehow.
Also, if i try and shut down the phone, it will reboot into a frozen "star icon".

Are you sure about the right region when choosing a firmware? Did you also try Odin 1.85? Have you tried flash a custom recovery via Odin and flash a rom manually?

Hi, and thanks for the reply!
I am pretty sure i got the right firmware region. At least, the only region that covered my location (norway) that i could find, was nordic.
I have not tried Odin v1.85 or manually. I guess i can find a guide on how to do it manually here somewhere, but i'll go for a shot with the older version of Odin right away.
Thanks!

Odin3 v1.85 didn't work. Well, in the sense that it probably does a job well done and says everything went well, but the phone wont nudge past boot screen.
I'll see if i can learn how to do it manually and come back with the result.

I have The solution For that remove your battery and charge battery by use of another working mobile or battery charger box
after charging you do the flashing using android 4.1.2
it successfully works on my mobile
the problem is battery is low so that at the time of flashing it turned off ....so fill the battery and use......

[Q] Bricked S3 i9300

Hi everyone,
My head is spinning from what's just happened. My phone mysteriously decided to crash on me after being a little slow and unresponsive recently. I'm running CM11 M5 on my phone, I found this is the most stable of the roms for me. The unusual thing about this crash was that it rebooted with a fuzzy, static-like screen, so I tried to reboot into the Cyanogen bootloader thingy and it just brings up the crash screen. I tried to reboot into Odin Mode, hooked up the phone to my computer and tried to reinstall a new ROM. First I tried with Odin 3.07 with a ROM I loaded onto it last month (I9300XXUGNA5_I9300AUTGNA1_I9300XXUGMK6_HOME.tar.md5), but the Odin program on the computer crashes each time. I also tried with an updated version of Odin, v1.85 and also Odin Auto. I had an issue last month, looked around and fixed it by downloading this ROM just mentioned, but this time, no joy. I've tried with another that I just downloaded (root66_TMO_T999UVDLJA.tar.md5) and the same thing happens. At one point, I received a message on different attempts where the Odin program would spit back at me this:
<ID:0/004> Added!!
<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..

So, how do I proceed from this point? I don't know enough to understand what the problem is with this, maybe something to do with the PIT mapping? I feel like I've covered every possible avenue that I can see posted online, I'm really not sure if there is anyone else with this problem, where the Odin program is so volatile. Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated, I suffer without my phone.

Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated, I suffer without my phone.

Hi everyone,
My head is spinning from what's just happened. My phone mysteriously decided to crash on me after being a little slow and unresponsive recently. I'm running CM11 M5 on my phone, I found this is the most stable of the roms for me. The unusual thing about this crash was that it rebooted with a fuzzy, static-like screen, so I tried to reboot into the Cyanogen bootloader thingy and it just brings up the crash screen. I tried to reboot into Odin Mode, hooked up the phone to my computer and tried to reinstall a new ROM. First I tried with Odin 3.07 with a ROM I loaded onto it last month (I9300XXUGNA5_I9300AUTGNA1_I9300XXUGMK6_HOME.tar.md5), but the Odin program on the computer crashes each time. I also tried with an updated version of Odin, v1.85 and also Odin Auto. I had an issue last month, looked around and fixed it by downloading this ROM just mentioned, but this time, no joy. I've tried with another that I just downloaded (root66_TMO_T999UVDLJA.tar.md5) and the same thing happens. At one point, I received a message on different attempts where the Odin program would spit back at me this:
<ID:0/004> Added!!
<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..
<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..
<OSM> Please wait..
<OSM> root66_TMO_T999UVDLJA.tar.md5 is valid.
<OSM> Checking MD5 finished Sucessfully..
<OSM> Leave CS..

Try the above rescue firmware as suggested above make sure you know what you are doing before flashing.. Exactly same advice if that doesn't work service required partition corrupt..Also I noticed the op above also flashed wrong root file for I9300 which didn't help.

Hardware issue, either damaged or corrupt emmc chip.

Yeah, that was a desperate attempt at trying another root file which was recommended in another post. I initially used:
I9300XXUGNA5_I9300AUTGNA1_I9300XXUGMK6_HOME.tar.md5
and this worked fine last month, but now I'm back to square one again. Any ideas on other PIT files or root files I can download which might do the trick?
Thanks for your comments so far, you're all a bunch of wizards...

Got Yellow Triangle - 4.4.2 -> 4.3?

I've managed to screw the pooch and got the Yellow Triangle of Death for my efforts. This is a VZW Note 2 sch-i605 that had(has?) a rooted 4.4.2. I tried to get TWRP installed and... yellow triangle. OK, the bootloader's locked up tight.
How do I get back to 4.3? Odin works - that is, it sees the phone, tries to do a NAND write and... party over.
Would trying to get an AOSP ROM loaded help? Can I get Odin to do that? I have the SDK but I guess sideloading is a loss without recovery.
This is what a failure looks like on Odin 3.10.7:
Code:

<ID:0/004> FAIL!
<ID:0/004>
<ID:0/004> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
No matter what rev. of Odin, TWRP, CWM, or even I605VRUAND3_I605VZWAND3_I605VRUAND3_HOME.tar.md5 I use... FAIL. And it's always that NAND write.
What options do I have?
I'm happy to say I beat this problem with a stick. The process was brutally ugly but it worked out. It starts with this video from Root Junky: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qtbEevn1VA. But things didn't quite work out. At the very end, the process tanked with, on the phone, a message saying "bad magic string". The good news is I didn't get the VZW Yellow Triangle of Death. I got the Kies or some Samsung utilities Yellow Triangle of Death. Out of simple desperation, I tried the same process seen in the video but... I used the ND7 file instead of the MC3 file. I kept the 16G.pit file (maybe I didn't need to repartition, maybe I did). And the who process passed, front to back. Even more amazing, my data is intact and so are the home screens. I did, however, lose root. I know how to root under ND7, so I'll do that next. And...
Root Checker gave me a scare and said the phone wasn't rooted. I had to install SuperSU first. The only thing this particular rooting process still doesn't do is install SuperSU and BusyBox. I can install them via Play Store, so it's not a real problem.
The procedure used to root at the end:

In full disclosure I have no idea where the source for this came from, I just made it pretty, and tried to make it super easy. Credit goes to 25yvdgpo06 for finding it. This root very well may work any many other devices, including other Samsung devices. Looking at the source I dont see anything that should hurt another device. Worst case scenario it simply doesn't root it. Please let us know if you try another device with success.
