SM-j700H/DS wasted. - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, i mess around with my phone now i cannot put it back to stock. I bought my phone in mauritius ( MUR )
At first i wanted to root the device , but my phone was 6.0.1 with dec-1-2016 security patch, so i watch some video on how to remove the FRP Lock , i was finaly able to with this file :
COMBINATION_OXY_FA51_J700HXXU2APC1_OXY2APC1_CL902935_QB8806508_REV00_user_mid_noship.tar.md5
But this is where my nightmare starts. After that i tried to flash my phone again with several ROM that i have downloaded from Sammobiles , but none was successful :
-J700HXXU1APA3_J700HOJV1AOK6_J700HXXU1APA2
-J700HXXU1AOK5_J700HOJV1AOK6_J700HXXU1AOK8
-J700HXXU2BPL1_J700HOJV2BPL1_J700HXXU2BPL1 ( this one i was able to , but my phone was very laggy )
-J700H_DS_XXU1AOGA_OXY1AOGA_v5.1.1_Repair_Firmware ( 4 files )
-SM-J700H_20151119_J700HXXU1AOK5_J700HOLB1AOK1_5.1.1
From all of the above i got this error code on ODIN 3.10.6 : SW REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE:2 BINARY: 1
only this onw i was able to flash , but its origin is philippine and i cannot upgrade my firmware to 6.0.1 again with this ROM .
Please can someone help me out , put back things as they should be. I was able to install TWRP 2.8.7.0 , but i didnt try again .
Regards

Hi, you probably tried to downgrade to an older bootloader, and that's what caused the trouble, try to flash the latest stock rom that has android 6.0.1

i flash it with this : J700HXXU2BPG4_J700HOJV2BPG1_J700HXXU2BPG1 , seems to be working without lag, will test it for a few days and see.

Moto E surnia Xt1521 Stuck at bootloader no OS as well as Recovery not working

I Unlocked the bootloader 3 days ago and flashed Cyanogenmod 12.1 with exact gapps and was able to use the phone perfectly ,today I searched for xposed and found that it could be only installed by manual flashing for android lollipop , so I downloaded the zip file and rebooted my phone in Recovery Mode [ TWRP ] and flashed the zip file just after that the phone stuck at bootloop. Restarted the phone 3 time's but no luck so finally I got into bootloader by pressing the volume down button and the power button and opened recovery mode to factory reset the phone and reflashed the CM 12.1 with gapps , now the problem begin's when I restarted the phone it is stuck at "Warning Bootloader Unlocked" and even the recovery mode is stuck at beginning screen of twrp , Im only able to use the bootloader . Even tried to reflash TWRP Recovery from computer but thier's no change it is still stuck at the recovery screen .
Any help would be really appreciated
try reflashing and then wiping cache's before rebooting ?
like the regular cache and dalvik cache.
also don't expect the first boot to work quick.. leave it for a long time...
good luck.
Actully the problem is , when i try to open recovery mode it stucks at teamwin logo (twrp)
"I searched for xposed and found that it could be only installed by manual flashing for android lollipop"

that quote is confusing.. what did you mean exactly.
What TWRP ? From Where + what version # ?
If i were you i would re-download it then MD5 hash it.. verify it !
I always check the md5 hashes on any phone roms or firmware etc.
I have had tons of incomplete downloads and there is nothing wrong with my internet connection either.
The more detailed you can be the more likely someone can help.
Once you are positive your TWRP is downloaded properly if i were you
i would re-flash it with fastboot. (if you can)
Can you power off the phone and put it in bootloader mode then connect to pc ?
power it off then hold volume down + power then plug in USB
then right click the empty space in the windows folder (assuming no Linux)
select open command prompt here then type:
adb devices
Is it listed ?
I also assumed you have "Minimal ADB and Fastboot" installed.
Sounds like you flashed a 5.1 firmware package ?
yes ? which one ?
And watch out many sites have cut off my download on me while downloading them.
and if you then flashed a half completed download you could prob damage the phone.
for checking hashes on windows i use HashSlash.. it's clean / free and has a GUI ..google it
Basically , first I flashed Android 5.1.1 AOSP for my device and then Cyanogenmod 12.1 Nightly Surnia . and yes I tried to reflash TWRP Recovery but it is stuck at the same Teamwin Logo screen , and i flashed the latest version of twrp which was available on xda . Can you provide me worth some kind of image file which I can flash to Factory reset my device from computer or anything else which can help.
And by the way Thanks for the quick reply

i used that.. but didn't flash my phone yet.
that is all firmware packages stock for Moto-2015
You still have not mentioned a lot like where did you get TWRP and what version ?
What carrier is your phone ?
I take it you unlocked the bootloader or did you get it like that ?
I'm guessing the bootloader loads TWRP
so either of those is probably damaged i bet.
I would try and get it stock then work from there getting TWRP back on and rooting etc.
What i was trying to ask you is..
Was your phone on 5.02 and you tried to update it to v5.1 ?
Because i have seen other people here who had problems with that.
Relocking the bootloader can cause problems and so can reverting to an old ver from 5.1 to 5.02
I used a custom kernel and TWRP from Squid here on the forum and rooted
and his kernel is only good for me up to version 5 but he has way newer versions out..
but they are only for users who updated to 5.1
So you have to be VERY careful what your doing.
I might have screwed up my phone if i didn't notice the fine print.
Also just search the forum for some guides on flashing firmware
and verify the downloads
My Bootloader is unlocked , TWRP Recovery Version 2.8.6.0 . My phone was on Android 5.0.2 [ Official Non Rooted ] , so I thought of updating it to 5.1.1 which was available as custom rom So I unlocked the bootloader flashed TWRP version 2.8.6.0 by copying Recovery.img in minimal adb folder and oped CMD and flashed the custom recory and it was no problem , then 2 days ago I flashed Cyanogenmod.12.1.Surnia.20150829.zip and it worked fine no issues then I flashed Xposed Modular in recovery mode , now when I tried to restart the system it stuck at bootloop so I entered Bootloader and again restarted 2, 3 times but no luck so I again entered bootloader and entered Recovery Mode ( TWRP 2.8.6.0) and wiped all my data , But unfortunately I was outside so I dint had the firmware and gapps so I switched the phone off in hope that ill flash the firmware and gapps when i reach back home . So when I vame back home and pasted the firmware and gapps in memory card and inserted it baxk in the phone and tried to enter recovery mode , that was the first time when I experied That teamwork logo stuck at recover mode and the further story you laready know

How to downgrade a Rooted, Bootloader unlocked P9 Lite from Android 7 to Android 6?

Hello fellow xda members helpers and developers
I need to downgrade my Phone from Android 7 Build: C432B370 to Android 6
What do I need to make sure of in my Huawei P9 Lite Android 7 Emui 5 before following the Rollback/software upgrade procedure described in the respective Zip files.
Do I need to unroot and relock ? .. If yes which version of recovery or TWRP do I need.. if I am going to rollback.
I am a little hesitant at the moment becouse I managed to get into a bootloop yesterday by just flashing recovery_stock .
I am guessing it is becouse I unawarely flashed the wrong recovery_stock(?)
Recovery/Fastboot mode were not availiable - and then tried to flash the rollback via 3 button method.. which of course did not work.
( In case you are wondering how I managed to fix this: I let the battery drain to 0% - this broke the loop - afte the fifth try I managed to reset it with volume up + power all the way through booting)
So now I am back to square one..
Thank you
ok so I managed to fix this by myself: The problem I had was, I had a corrupted/wrong recovery on my Android 7.
So what I did was, I checked which build I excactly had .. in my case C432B370 ... downloaded the full rom. Extracted the stock recovery.img with "HuaweiUpdateExtractor" and flashed it.
Then I did the normal rollback procedure with both update.app files.
Had to unlock and root it once more... ( this time with the correct twrp) and voila it works.
So what do we learn?: dont trust simple internet guides if they not offer informations on file versions they offer ... they may not use the correct versions for your phone.
thrad can be closed or deleted
thanks for looking

Motorola Moto Z Chinese Version XT1605-05 64 GB - lineage boot screen stucked

Hello,
i got today a Chinese XT1605-05. I flashed the firmware and gapps with twrp from this thread.
The firmware and gapps were installed successfully. But after reboot only the boot animation stucked for around 5 minutes than the smartphone restarts into twrp. Gladly i can copy firmware files to system folder and flash again. So the smartphone isn’t bricked.
Than i tried an older lineage 16.0 firmware => same problem.
And a firmware [URL="https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z/development/rom-omnirom-t3881462“] from here[/URL] => same problem.
Now i have nothing running. I have no idea where i could get the right firmware file for this Chinese Version.
And the original (stock image from lenovo) firmware is only available from sources which could be infected. Not a good idea to flash this garbage.
Best regards
TUKF98
Edit:
Ok, here ist the default firmware:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z/development/moto-z-official-firmware-downloads-t3449837
But it would be better to get android 9.0 working.
Sorry, for double post. It was created by a mistake.
Edit 2:
This stock firmware does not work. Wrong zip file.
Edit 3:
It works now, the lineage version .
I watched this video. And did all steps.
Edit 4:
Now its not working anymore. Its a joke. I installed a new version of lineageOS with the same procedure it worked first.
And now it wont work. The old firmware doesnt work also. WTF. I dont know what is wrong with this thing. Its now again stucking in boot sequence with the "ball moving on the line".
Edit:
Have flashed stock firmware back via fastboot commands. What a crap phone . 100 Euros are cheap, but not as cheap that i would take this ..... .
Now i have installed the original China firmware with trojans.
You cant block this **** from recording every input. But the european firmware does not run on my phone. After flash its hanging in bootloop.

Any root galaxy a10s

Is there any way to work root for galaxy a10s i tried all the methods and didn't work with me ... even the boot.img method via odin didn't work with me .... is there any other way ?????
Galaxy a10s Mediatek MT6762 Helio P22 (12 nm)
CPU Octa-core 2.0 GHz Cortex-A53
Any helps please
Good morming,
This link worked for me: https://www.full-repair-firmware.com/2019/10/how-to-root-a107m-9.0.html
Although I didn't use the BL from the (in my case TELCEL SM-A107M) firmware, I downloaded this Boot file (I don't remember from where ), it is for A107MUBU3ASI4:
https://mega.nz/#!tRgXgCTI!dHdQPB-MSQ7Znpm7d-Nme7lwwc_w2-im75putNHxgtM
SO I copied the boot file to the sdcard, ran magisk manager on the phone, selected patch boot image and selected the boot image on the sdcard for patching, after the patching is done, I copied the image back to the PC, started Odin, booted the phone to download mode (turn it off, connect the phone to the usb cable press power button to start the phone, then release the power button and press both volume buttons until it boots to download mode), then when Odin detected the phone I clicked the AP button on Odin, selected the patched boot file that I copied from the phone and then clicked on the Start button to flash the image, then when Odin finished, the phone booted automatically ... the tutorial says that the phone will ask for a factory reset and delete all the phone info, but in my case it didn't asked for nothing nor deleted my data, so I got root without losing information, as soon as the phone booted it was already rooted an root was working witout me having to do anything.
The first time I rooted my phone I installed xposed framework, then had some troubles with the beta version, got a bootloop and had to re-flash the original firmware, BUT when I tried to reflash the patched boot image I got the PreNormal message and had to wait a week to root again my phone .
So I googled and then found some info about the KG/RMM problem, but couldn't find a zip that worked for the SM-A107M, also since there is no TWRP available to this model, I wouldn't be able to flash the zip anyway, but I found that deleting this files:
libvkjni.so
libvkmanager.so
libvkservice.so
KnoxGuard.apk/Rlc.apk
will disable the service.
The first 3 are in the system/lib directory, the knoxGuard apk is in the priv-app/knoxGuard directory.
So I rooted the phone again (after waiting 7 day to prenormal to end) and in the first boot I
installed "Root Explorer" from the play store (Any file manager with root privileges will work) and deleted 4 of those files (the RLC.apk I couldn't find) and after 2 weeks of rebooting, reinstalling xposed, getting the bootloop problem again , re-flashing original firmware (without the KG/RMM prenormal state), re-rooting, and finally installing xposed without problems (in my phone the 4.6.0 beta version didn't work so I inistalled the 4.5.1 beta) I am happy with my rooted, xposed phone.
I would really like if somebody created/xported a TWRP for this model, but in the interim all is good the ends good.
Regards
:good: Thanks for the wonderful information .... But the problem I have is KGG / RM PRENORMAL STATE .... must do cancellation of the first ...
If you have already Prenormal state, then you have to wait 7 days, dont turn off your phone, don't restart and don't disconnect from the internet, then after the 7 days (168 hrs) the prenormal state should disappear!
Check this link:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sa...w-to/guide-root-install-twrp-samsung-t3747535
Best Regards
I did not find prenormal state or normal.....
I found : KG status : checking
OEM unlock : off
Then, if not in prenormal, you should be able to flash and root your phone!

Good night
Unfortunately .... this root method did not work for me .... via Magisk ... I don't know what the problem is .... but this method did not work for me which is in many websites and it is the same way .... As follows my device info :
Ap: A107FXXU3ASJ5
CP: A107FXXU3ASJ1
CSC: A107FOJM3ASJ5
Model: sm- A107F / DS
The same method is used by everyone via Magisk ...
My device have no problem:
Unlocking the device bootloader
OEM unlock: off
Kg status: checking
I have no prenormal state
I followed all the steps on the sites
1- I downloaded Galaxy A10S Firmware
2- I downloaded and installed the latest Magisk Manager app.
3- Copied only the boot.img file from the extracted folder to a device storage.
4- opened the Magisk Manager app then clicked on on “Patch Boot Image File”.
5- when patched boot img finished from Magisk .... I renamed to boot.img and used 7zip and archived it to .tar format ....
6- I flashed via Odin in download mode but I got on fail .....
I don't know what problem ...
But this is what happened !!!!
Did you use the boot image (BL) I posted on the second post??
Download the file, copy it to your phone, use magisk manager to patch it, copy patched image to pc, flash via Odin to your phone.
Regards
No, I didn't use that boot img .... It the same : A107F .... A107M.. ???
I will try later.
I used that boot in your post .... for A107m.... l flashed via Odin in my A107F ... It's flashed in my device.... but when I boot to Magisk..... no root........ for that I think will wait someone to create twrp for galaxy A10s then I flash root.... Thanks for everything....
anybody with A107F firmware pls. i need to try to root mine.

What do i need to do to make the oem unlock option appear again?
I've already tried the turning off updates and changing dates thing.
And I waited out the 7 days ( Which was difficult since my IP doesnt have a stable connection.)
I've started doubting if it even exists at all.
I only got my A10s for free from a carrier plan.
KG Status is Normal
OEM is still locked and nowhere to be seen

If you made all the attempts and didn't succeed with you ... Install the stock firmware for your country ... and you delay the date a few months earlier ... then go to update the program .... then you should have an OEM unlock

And how does one Install a "different/new" firmware?
I remember doing it once or twice with Odin with a firmware I got from sammobile SMA-107f.
Succeeded. Although I don't know if it actually worked, since it booted up just like the first time I got it, with the carriers default wallpaper and pre-loaded apps.
I've been trying to root the SM-A107F for weeks now but no luck.. Any help will be appreciated

This is very interesting. KG State has been non existent on my device, I can flash modified firmware since day 1. I'll try this, I tried patching the whole AP_ file and there are problems with the signal, I did not try only patching the boot.img
Thanks!

when you flash the patched AP.tar you should also be flashing it with the rest of the firmware.. tjw even says somewhere on his github you shouldnt flash the patched AP by itself
