Hi, folks. My friend has a S2 phone with proximity sensor that not working. Auto-brightness does not working too. Also, if he compare his S2 with any other, 1st one have been loading on bootloader stage for 5-6 minutes that much slower any other S2.
What we've tried already:
- 3-file 2.3.3 service firmware, 4.0.4 and 4.1.2 with PIT file through ODIN, flashed many custom firmwares and AOSP firmwares, flashed old & new bootloader
- FOTA updates
- disassembling phone and finding parts that unstable or not working, didn't find anything
- ???
Ok, I think that proximity sensor is hardware problem. But why it stucking on bootloader for 4-5 minutes and only after that time it shows ROM animation and boot successfully?
Bump. Still waiting for da answer.
Hi Guys,
Had a problem with the lolipop upgrade on my 850f.
I was BTU (Unrooted) before on 4.4.
after flashing the XEF lollipop via odin, i went to recovery to wipe device and it wiped most except for E: for which it gave an error (E: unknown volume for path /sbfs) - i ignored the error and proceeded ahead.
Unit reboots perfectly, all OK except for the left capacitive key. the light on it works but it doesnt detect anything, i tried the *#0*# option to check if its picking up anything but the key is unresponsive.
i know its not a HW issue since it was working perfectly before the lollipop flash.
i have wiped by device twice after that and get the same 2 problems, the E: error during wipe and the left capacitive key is not working.
any suggestions?

I have the same problem, tried wipe/factory reset, both before flash and after. Still same error. My solution is to flash back to 4.4.4. Then it starts to work again

ah okay, you tried flashing 502 again after your key works in 444? also what versio of odin did you use? i used 3.10...
would be good to know what others used who arent having this problem.
I have flashed it 4 times, still same problem. Even after flashing 4.4.4. Tried both 3.10 and 1.85 odin. Same problem

interesting.... it seems like a fw bug but its wierd that not many are affected by it.
i would like to know or pin point whats causing this.
were you on BTU before you upgraded to 502?
did you encounter the E: unknown volume for path /sbfs error?
do you think the firmware file we downloaded had a corruption?

I was on rooted stock 4.4.4. Just bought it, I also encountered the same error, and I've downloaded 5.0.2 from 3 different mega upload. So I don't think that's the problem :/

interesting buddy, sounds like both the error are related..?
anyone had the E: error but the left soft/capacitive key still works after the update to 502?
same problem
left softkey not working
Did you get the E: error during the device wipe?
We all have G850F model, the only difference is the SCS, aka for which market our phones are made for, mine is originally XEH (Hungary), converted to XEF, and i don't have that problem. Why don't people who have issues with left softkey say for which market are their phones made for, maybe we can narrow it down.
Someone with a Galaxy Alpha "SM-G850A" (the at&t) model posted a very similar problem here. His left softkey stopped working after the update and as there is no Stock firmware file available for the A model he was pretty much struck with a broken device. So i don't think it has anything to do with ODIN or CSC. the guy with atnt phone updated his via OTA the bug HAS TO BE in the firmware but so far only a few devices have been affected. This is the real question here.
mine was btu and i flashed the firmware via odin 3.10
after the update i reset and saw the e: error and once device booted the left key was dead.
is usb debugging have something to do with it?
i try to reflash and wipe today
it still problem.
left key is dead

Originally the CSC was XEH (Hungary) I updated the phone with the XEF FW and I also get the /sbfs error in recovery. Although everything seems to for except on thing: Doing a firmware upgrade and initialization in KIES it sets the CSC to TPH (Portugal) and now displays tww versions for the CSC. So from that time KIES doesn't recognize the phone as a stock device.
Cannot go back to the original FW even if I download it from sammobile since I cannot set the CSC without root privileges
Does any body know a solution for this issue?

after installing xef with odin - no problems, all buttons work, no overheating, good performance
i have flashed the firmware without enabling usb debugging
maby one of you with issues should try flashing without usb debug enabled like in my post from this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60519632&postcount=10
I had the same problem, and I did this:
Went to Chrome - Settings - Combine Tabs and Apps. I deactivated the option, and by mistake, hit the back button, and started working.
Eventhough the option is Deactivated, when I press the left button, I can see Chorme's tabs wtithin the Recents Apps.
After that had to install and app from Google Play, and after doing so, the button stopped working again. I restarted de phone, and 20 minutes later, the button started working. I have no clue of what's going on.

Hey guys,
since 2-3 weeks i'm using the 6.0.1 official version which i got via OTA update (everything original on my phone, no root, no flashing any software) for my international S6 Edge.
First i noted havy battery drain and uninstalled a few apps. A weather widge forced the heacy battery drain and my phone worked fine.
Since 4 Days i have problems with random reboots. It started with some reboots a day and now it keeps rebooting after i unlocked sim card and want to use my phone. I managed to put my phone in flight mode and i were able to make a backup of my userdata via samsung smartswitch. I initialized the phone via the software and it flashed the newest version. After it finished it booted up and in the language selection screen it keeps rebooting.
I read about corrupted files due update from version 5.x to 6.0.1 and thought to wipe the phone and flash newest software via smartswitch would fix the problem but my phone is not usable anymore.
Maybe you have any advice for me?
Thanks for your further help!

Hi borth87
As it won't get worst, I suggest to flash a clean Stock version.
From SamMobile find the latest firmware for your device model.
After, for the download, I suggest you to use:
[TOOL] SamFirm - Samsung firmware downloader & checker
Just provide Model+Region and it will find you the newer firmware available. Please, before download, check the boxes: CRC32 & Decrypt
Flash the above using the lastest Odin v3.11.1
- Open Odin
- Reboot Phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons)
- Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin
- Add the firmware file downloaed to AP / PDA
- Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
- Click the start button, sit back and wait few minutes
Let us know your path.
Nice regards.

Have fun.

I got back my phone from repair. They switched Mainboard and some minor parts.

Hi.
I has the same problem. I tried to flash all of firmwares (always STOCK), but it's failed with ODIN all times. Samsung Smart Switch PC software say system repair succesfull (with emergency update repair), but the problem keep joke with me.
Phone don't repond without charger. With PC connection, i don't allow to run restore mode, only ODIN mode. With Wall charger adapter, i allow to run restore mode, odin mode, safe system mode, normal system, but i wiped cache, i do factory reset, i rebooted in bootloader and rebooted system as normal. When i run system in normal mode, language selection show up, and when i press next, phone reboot. When i run system in safe mode, i can select my language, and i can connect to my WiFi, but after i press NEXT at wifi list, phone reboot.
So in safe mode i able to do more one step, but system keep rebooting. Charging screen show battery at 89-90% all times, system start updating battery status from 1% to 100% (1 percent/ 1.5 sec).
Some times red-green-blue-purple rows show at Samsung logo and i got bootloop. Like when i put off my battery from my old phone.
