hi all,
Since a week or 2 my phone is constantly giving messages like this: "The application LogsProvider (process com.sec.android.provider.logsprovider) has stopped unexpectedly"
When i make a new contact or a new file on my phone, it disapears after rebooting. When i uninstall all my apps and reboot the phone, all the apps are back and nothing has been uninstalled. Even when i format the sd card on my pc, and reboot the phone, all the content is back as if nothing has happened.
When i try to reset it to factory settings, it opens in recovery mode. When i then select to wipe all data or wipe cache and reboot, nothing has happened to it, everything is still on the phone like before. Even when i deselect the backup and automatic recovery checkboxes before i reset to factory settings, nothing has been wiped.
When i try to update the phone with kies, the update installs correctly, but when the phone reboots, the same old firmware is still installed and the settings are intact.
When i try to update the phone with Odin, everything goes well, and it says 'pass' in green color. when i reboot the phone, the same old firmware and settings are still there.
I run stock firmware from november '11, which i can tell by dialing *#1234*
Can anyone help me identify this problem, and is there a solution? It really looks like this phone has some write protection or something..
i made a youtube video that describes the problem, but this forum doesn't allow me to make a link.
anyway, my phone stays stuck on the 3rd of september and that sucks.. any solutions plz?
the video
i can't post the link, so let's try it like this:
First type the 'www', then the 'youtube', then the '.com', then type 'watch?v=n6SH8QDJr94&feature=g-upl'
Flash custom kernel, do a factory reset in CWM and see if the data is gone.
i've already tried to install cwm, but first i needed to root my phone. When i tried to root it, it could not find the Root.zip on the sd card, although i'm pretty sure i put it there, it just disapeared after the reset, just like all the other files..
Flash it [kernel] through Odin (PC).
allright, i will try that, thanks already!
ehm, even that didn't do anything, i will upload a youtube video in a few minutes..
the youtube video:
type 'youtube', then '.com', then '/watch?v=P_D2EbPF0Ik&feature=youtu.be', without the '..
really strange how i can update the kernel and nothing has changed!
I really start thinking there is some kind of write protection or the internal storage is totaly screwed up?
Seems your nand is partially borked, and is stuck in a state where it will not update the memory, so it is "stuck" at a specific point in time.
I have heard that it's POSSIBLE (and I stress possible) that flashing with repartition ticked with the PROPER .pit file will resolve your issue, but I cannot say this with any certainty as I have not actually done this myself. But at this point, it seems you don't really have anything to lose by trying.
I can't seem to find a reliable download link for the .pit file for the I9100 right now... it's called u1_02_20110310_emmc_EXT4.pit. I'll see if I can't find one when I have a spare moment.
EDIT: Found one - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28321934&postcount=35. BUT!!! Only use it if you are positive you have an I9100. (check on the label under the battery) Flash it with a stock firmware with re-partition checked.
False alarm. Turns out the link is dead.
EDIT 2: This looks promising... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1448351
TL;DL: Phones 16gb storage changed to 128mb overnight. None of my files/apps/pics accessible.
I have the international version for the S3 (GT-i9300) with 4.3 stock firmware installed (rooted)
I woke up this morning and looked on my phone to see that my primary launcher, nova launcher, had been reset to the original layout when you first install it. I was confused so I restarted my phone and it went back to touch wiz. But now none of my apps, files, pictures, etc. from the internal memory on the phone are accessible. It seems like it went back to an old backup I once had due to the lack of my newer contacts on board.
When I connected the phone to my PC it only shows 127mb/128mb where as on the storage settings it shows available space of 5.75gb/16gb where all the non system memory are labeled as miscellaneous.
In application manager it shows all my apps i used to have but now they all have the android logo and 0b of storage.
The phone also prompts a message every couple seconds saying clock is not responding.
No idea where to go from here seeing as i can't even access all of my internal storage... Would appreciate some help on my situation, thanks in advance!
EDIT: Tried factory reset, tried installing play store apk, tried flashing an updated firmware, tried booting into clockwork recovery.... all with no luck
Flash full stock firmware with Odin then factory reset.

Thanks for the suggestion. I flashed stock firmware and ended up doing a factory reset through the recovery menu. All seemed well as my phone stopped heating up like it used too, battery lasted longe and all the symptoms I was facing stopped. Unfortunately when I woke up this morning the phone factory reset itself again. Same symptoms as before but this time I can view files, even though everything got deleted...
My question is now should I just flash a different rom like cyanogenmod? So far for the past 2 years I've only stuck to the stock rom and I've faced nothing but troubles. Wondering if I might face the same thing once I convert.
Thanks!
Sup guys, so i just had a really strange problem that popped out randomly, i was watching a youtube video and i had to help a person quickly and when i came back just a minute later i saw my phone showing encryption unsuccessfull when i pressed the power button to turn my screen on. Well it said to factory reset my phone, i don't store any important data on my phone anyways so i just went for it, and it restarted went to my TWRP recovery and tried factory reseting it, to no success. It basically failed to access /data/ and other directories and i can't see any files in them through recovery. And so i can't even factory reset it, i can't install a ROM cause the partition is corrupt i assume. How can i "unbrick" this? I was running the good old Temaseks CM 12.1 ROM, has been working fine for a looong time. My PC recognizes the phone but i can't access any data, it just shows that it's connected, odin doesn't recognize it.
Can somebody help me please ? I use my phone alot and it's really important.
I'm using a stock Huawei Phone with no major modifications (no root, no custom roms and stuff, changed into a custom launcher tho). Suddenly today I can't access my phone because somehow it has partially encrypted itself or something and now I can't even boot my phone, let alone access my data. Here I should point out that at no point did I try to encrypt my data so I'm baffled why something like this should happen. Anyway my phone said I have to factory reset my data and it took me to this recovery screen with the option to wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition. I do so and then reboot. But the same thing keeps happening. I wiped data a few times to no avail. I removed my SD card but it didn't work either.
I can't open my phone anymore. The data on my phone isn't that important - most of it backed up. Here's my phone specifications-
Model: Huawei Y625-U32 (Android system recovery says its Y625-U32V100R001C567B105 if it helps)
Os: Android 4.4
I can't remember the other specs, but here's the product page on Huawei: consumer.huawei.com/pk/mobile-phones/tech-specs/huawei-y625-pk.htm
It seems that I can apply updates to my phone from external sources and there is a firmware update on my phone (consumer.huawei.com/pk/mobile-phones/support/downloads/huawei-y625-pk.htm). Will this fix my phone?
I don't know why something like this is happening. Should I be worried that this is the work of a virus?
My phone is a little obscure so it's hard to find help online. I would really appreciate your help guys.
Hi all, I'm experiencing a strange issue but very annoying and I hope that I can find some help with the expert out there. I installed a MIUI 11 based rom and everything was almost perfect. I had to encrypt my phone because it's a company phone and they want encrypted phones. When I was prompted to to so I've followed few indication and the phone restarted and it stayed for ages with the boot logo apparently doing nothing...there was no signal of life but maybe it was just encrypting in the background and I didn't know...other times I encrypted my data I could see a timer but not this time. Well, as a matter of fact I've force restarted the phone and from that moment on all my problems started. After few seconds of bootlogo a message errore popped up saying that I had interrupted the encryption process and that I would have needed a factory reset to restart phone...and so I did...but no way, the same message was always appearing...tried also a full format, factory reset, repairing file system...NO WAY! still the same message. I was panicking...then I've decided to install an AOSP based rom and BOOM, the phone booted up and I had my phone again...Then, proud of this success, I've decided to retry installing MIUI 11; so I made a clean flash (formatting data including internal storage) and, WTF, after few seconds the same [email protected]#@#ing errore message that I had interrupted the encryption process and that I should have made a factory reset, that obviously didn't worked, exactly like the first time.
So, forgive my looong message, but what the hell is going on here??? How is possible that this stupid error message survives to all the full wipe I made including internal storage??? how the hell can I get rid of it? It seems I can't install any of the MIUI rom...tried a couple but same result...
please help...I very much prefer MIUI11 than any other AOSP or similar ROM...
thx

twrp ,Mount vendor, wipe vendor system data internal.
Try to flash latest vendor only first , then flash the whole rom.
This might help bcuz vendor makes phone encrypt itself.
