yes.......if it bootloops then over stock rom

Flashed over fresh KPE - KPM:
1. can't mount SD card in recovery mode.
2. Same USB access glitch as Skin's root.

what's usb glitch?
could skin's cfroot mount sd crad in recovery mode?

usb glitch is when plugged on PC phone isn't recognized as i9003 but as 2 "removable disks" (1 phone, 1 ext. card). Before that I get vlc player to open and wanting to play some file

is that a USBglitch? i always use that usb mode. "Mass Storage" to be specific. i think you want the "Samsung Kies" mode wherein you will only see 1 removable disk. i dont really think thats a glitch

hm, I've always used Samsung drivers with mass storage (without the Kies stuff) and never had any problems.
It's just annoying when I plug in usb cable and get a bunch of the files on my sd card trying to run on my vlc player with this result before anything else:
edit:
this is sd card error/message returned when wiping data + factory reset. Can't reproduce the other error with no sd card, as I'm back on stock.

updated op with fixed v2.....

May I ask what exactly is fixed now?

so my kernel wasnt responsible?

That's a different issue, sakindia. Don't want to confuse you.
I'm back on kph for the time being.
Just seen you fixed the sd card issue. Good. See what others say.
Edit: Damn it! You're probably right. It's not your kernel.
I completely wiped phone and started from scratch. KPE, KPH, cf-root skin and have problem with vlc player persisting. Trying restore now. Someone is sitting somewhere in the depth of my phone. Get out!
Edit2: Phew! Recovery got me back to normal. SD card detectable again and fully functioning. I'm staying away from KPM tweaks for now.

can we please have this in zip also...m not sure we can flash this in cwm..still...want to try this but away from the pc..thats why zip

please recall the changes u made they're important ... btw if it ends in bootloop can we just flash cf-root by skin n it'll boot fine ?

[Fix] EMMC brick bug issue on P6200/P6210 16gb? Give this a go!!!

For those who have been living under a rock, problematic leaked builds of ICS were released for several different Samsung devices a few months ago. Users of those Devices for instance soon discovered that their devices were being ffected by what came to be known as the MMC_CAP_ERASE bug. Shortly after this*occurred, XDA Senior Member hg42 came up with a way to revive downed devices.
Now thanks to some more ingeniuty on his part, hg42 has also developed a companion application known as Partition Scanner to assist in this process.*The application features:
emmc_scan_all_partitions_once.zip
emmc_scan_all_partitions_infinitely.zip
these allow fast scanning of all blocks of all emmc partitions in 1MiB steps.
The main purpose is to access each emmc block to find any bricked block in the partitions after repartitioning.
The “infinitely” variant runs checks infinitely, which may help to find emmc brick effects which only occur sporadically (if such effect really exists). Run this as long as you want. Reboot to finish.
If this freezes the last partition shown may have a bricked block inside.
emmc_find_brick_start.zip
emmc_find_brick_end.zip
these scan the whole emmc device.
emmc_find_brick_start starts scanning from the beginning of the device upward.
emmc_find_brick_end searches the end of the device and then scans downward.
If this runs up to the end or down to zero (showing a message with “completed –> OK”), no bricked block was found.
If it freezes, the block shown last with “…” at end of line is the first bricked block in that direction.
The line before with “-> ok” is the first usable block before/after the brick.
The application has received excellent reviews, so if you’re one of those people currently facing an EMMC issue, or you had the issue previously and gave up on your device, head on over to the companion thread and give this a go.

@Bad2hold - have you tried this yourself as I am desperate for help in unbricking my device that Samsung refuse to repair as it is the P-6200L (non-UK model).
I can't use ADB as my pc won't recognise the Tab, have tried flashing the .pit file and firmware but no joy, can't use the partition scanner as I can't get it to scan the internal memory (it scans the external SD card instead).
I can install CWM recovery and also get to stock recovery but the Tab will not go past the white Galaxy Tab logo.
Any help is highly appreciated

There is good chance you can recover. try multiple factory resets. flash earlirst odin package, preferrably with a boot.bin, after flash, and stuck on logo, boot to recovery and factory reset. try wiping a few more times if it is still stuck. i usually have to do this when going back to stock. one time i had to wipe from custom recovery, and a combonation of other things..
If you have recovery, youre lucky.
If you give up, you can for JTAG, normally for hard bricks. mobiltechvideos.com saved me from hardbrick.
Id play around a bit before I send to JTAG.
best of luck..

Thanks for the advice mate.
Am going to flash it with the honeycomb firmware it came with from Sammobile and try a few factory resets to see if that works.
If not have found a place in the UK that will JTAG it for £38 if all else fails...:good:
UPDATE: Honeycomb doesn't let me access recovery so no way to wipe from there. Recovery is available on an ICS rom but am reluctant wipe in stock recovery as that's how I go in this mess to begin with :crying:

I currently cant help, as iam travelling without a pc... but this guy who developed this scanner, has pit files available for our device. So there is a good chance to get help from him. And iam sure, with some hours off every week, where u get bored, u can actually fix it by yourself as u already figured out that much... i would love to help, its a challange you know? maybe iam gonna buy a laptop... =p
Update: just curious, is it scanning without a external sd inserted? Because internal and sd are swapped in cwm recovery since 3 versions too...
Sent from my GT-P6200 using xda app-developers app

@Bad2hold - Thanks for the reply, have tried flashing the .pit file but no joy.
Can't get the scanner to scan internal card as it's loaded on my external sd and can't push it to the internal which then means I can't remove the external sd.
Have tried flashing various honeycomb and ICS firmwares with a combination of .pit files, the process flashed fine without errors but still no boot past the white Samsung writing

Just one question:
do I use it if my device got bricked (fortunately it s not the case), or do I use it to remove the brick bug risk from my device?
Thanks for your answer...

I think we cannot remove the brickbug on stock ICS...that pit file just for solving hardbrick issue...
Sent from my GT-P6200 using xda premium

U can actually remove the brick bug issue, this is, what this post is about.
Basically, you just have to find the bad blocks in your sd partition.
After you found them, all is left, is to repartition your sd around the bricked blocks, which you have to delete from your partition.
He mentions several methods to use adb and other tools, helping to do this.
And i really recommend reading a bit through his first post, found the same problem after a minute:
I also had the following problem:
I couldn't format my internal sdcard with the cm9 recovery. I think it's too big for the mkfs.vfat tool of current cm9. So I installed another recovery, formatted the internal sd (I thought).
This erased all my current backups and downloads, because in reality it was my external sd. Fortunately I had a backup of the external sdcard from before rescuing my phone.
So, you may want to create a backup of your external sdcard first.
Then double check which is your internal sdcard (the UMS partition) and which is your external sdcard.
Or you could remove the external sd completely. But think about when to remove it, because you might need it for some files (e.g. to use the emmc partition scanner).

Of course, if u r not familiar with linux, u probably wont fix it in an hour.
But you can learn a lot within an hour. First of all, figure out how to connect your device to adb. (Which is still possible, if you didnt smash your tab against the wall or so...) After that, it should be lot easier to follow his instructions.(not just because u have adb working, but because you know what he is actually talking about.)
And he is really willing to help, so figure out as much as possible after connected to adb and just ask in his post if you get stuck.
Dont forget: if its not a issue by malfunctioning/broken hardware, then you actually can fix everything with your pc, you just need to know how.. so dont give up!!!
here his post again: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1667886
And @kersey: what pit file did u flash? The pits he provides are to repartition your SD AFTER you located the bricked blocks. But you cant know, if you cant get his scanner running..? You have to format data partition in recovery after flashing one of those, because of missing file system.
Note: Never flash a stock ICS after you fixed it. It will brick your device again. But u r safe with cm9 and others.

Good news all, after much trial and error and more flashing than your average pervert I have revived my tablet from the dead with a big thank you to hg42 for his scanner and extra advice.
Thanks to all those who helped in this post too :good:

Dude, if you dont mind, what exactly have you done to revive your tab?
Not exactly, just a quick guide to avoid the most common mistakes.
Thanx!

It was pretty simple to revive it with hg42's help.
The first thing you need to do is ensure you have CWM recovery, as the scanning tools only work with that.
Download hg42 emmc partition scanner from the link on the first page of this topic and copy to all 5 zip files to your external sd card. You will also need to download hg42's patched .pit file for your model of tab.
Boot into CWM recovery and flash emmc_find_brick_start.zip. This will scan you tab and will freeze on a bad block. Make a note of the number it freezes on.
Now flash the emmc_find_brick_end.zip file and once again make a note of the number the tab freezes on.
You now need to select the patched .pit file that falls within the range of brick start and brick end. e.g. my brick_start was 1074 and brick_end was 2147 so the patched .pit file I flashed with Odin was "P6200_tabplus--patched--brick-between-281-and-2160-MB--FACTORYFS-moved-by-1792-MiB"
I once again entered CWM recovery and did a scan using emmc_scan_all_partitions_once.zip. Which verified there were no errors.
I then booted up the Tab and hey presto it was alive again.
Feeling brave I then flashed the latest Austrian 4.0.4 firmware followed by permanent CWM recovery making sure that I can never do a factory reset using stock recovery which cause the brick to begin with.
Hope the above makes sense to those who need it, I'm sure as you go through the processes above it will.
I'd also like to encourage anyone who uses hg42's emmc tools to offer a donation as without him I would have had a very expensive paperweight or would have had to pay to get it JTAG'd

Happy Boy
Hi all
While trying to root and install custom rom I bricked my friends phone. I have been going crazy trying everything I could to get this brick back to life.
ITS ALIVE AGAIN!!!!!!!!
Thank you kersey for your post on how you got your Tab back.
This is what I did.
I installed the 5 files on the SD card.
120824-151927-emmc_find_brick_end
120824-151927-emmc_find_brick_start
120824-151927-emmc_scan_all_partitions_infinitely
120824-151927-emmc_scan_all_partitions_once
120824-220105-emmc_scan_write
I put the phone into recovery mode and ran 120824-151927-emmc_find_brick_start.
The program started scanning the memory and first froze on 2188.
I got back into recovery and ran 120824-151927-emmc_find_brick_end
once again the program started counting down and froze about 3189.
For this phone the correct pit files were in " pits-N7000_16GB "
I unzipped pits-N7000_16GB and looked for the nearest pit file , which was
N7000_16GB_Q1_20110914--patched--brick-between-1174-and-3321-MB--DATAFS-moved-by-2048-MiB.pit
I then put the phone back into download mode and using Odin flashed the patched pit file above.
Disconnecting the phone from computer I went back into recovery and ran120824-151927-emmc_scan_all_partitions_once
For the first time I was able to do a full scan without the program freezing.
Next step was installing Abyss Kernel 4.2. I then did the regular data wipe/cache wipe/dalvik wipe.
And finally I installed Rocketrom 11.
The phone rebooted and then came back to life.
I checked the internal memory and it was down to 9gb, but who cares as long as its ALIVE AGAIN !!!!
hg42 you sir are an absolute legend. Donation coming your way.
This method definitely works . Just be patient. I hope This helps others aswell

EDIT:
Is there any not so hard way to install the original rom with the pit i need? cm10 works, but i dont like it so much.
p6201dbtlpc_p6201xxlpc_p6201xxlp3_home.tar i would like to use
but i only know to flash this in odin, becouse it is no zip, i have no clue how to flash it in cwm
thanks for an answer!

ICS update and emmc bug
Hi; not sure if right forum, but here goes ,
I updated my tab plus to ics 4.0.4 using alpn and xlpn file from sammobile using odin from pc,
tab was never rooted only used a launcher
so my question is after i have installed ics and will not root or use cwm ,will i still have to worry about the emmc bug and if yes
is it best just to go back to honeycomb
btw all is running well on ics just worried about bricking
thank you in advance

If you chose to do a factory restore via stock recovery, which is what you have due to not being rooted and not having CWM installed there is a very big chance you may brick your device. I speak from experience!!!
If you are that worried I would flash back to honeycomb rather than risking having an expensive paperweight

You guys can follow this guide I wrote for the Galaxy Tab 7.7 (which also suffers from mmc_cap_erase) : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1862294
Just replace the partition numbers with the ones parted shows you.
The problem is, either way you followed, after being revived your tab will :
- rebrick everytime you flash anything
- Have less than 1gb of internal storage
- Hang everytime you want to download an app or whatever
To fix the last 2 problems, you need to make an ext2sd script to swap your internal-sd and external-sd.
To do so, go to /dev/block/vold : you'll see two files named with numbers (i.e : 22:48 179:48), note the name of those 2 files (one of them is your external-sd mount point)
Then replace the "xxx:xx" in the following script with the name of the first file :
Code:
mount -t vfat -o umask=0000 /dev/block/vold/xxx:xx /storage/sdcard0
mount -o bind /data/media /storage/sdcard1
Save this script in a file called ext2sd1.sh and use Script Manager to run it "as root" and "at boot", now reboot and go to settings/storage : if the first file was your extsd mount point your internal and external storage should now be swapped (i.e : if you have a 64gb external sdcard the settings will show : internal storage : 64gb, and you can actually install 64gb of apps).
If it didn't work, replace the xxx:xx in the script with the name of the second file, then it should work.
Good luck guys, this superbrick is a damn pain in the ass, we can thank sammy for it

[CWM] Pantech Flex P8010

Hello people,
I am proud to present CWM recovery v5.8.0.2 for the FLEX!
THIS IS NOT UPDATED FOR JELLYBEAN!!..yet
UPDATED support for either internal or external sd
THE ACTUAL CONTENTS OF THE INTERNAL SDCARD ARE LOCATED IN THE /data/media FOLDER ON THE PHONE SO YOU HAVE TO GO TO THE /media FOLDER TO GET YOUR INTERNAL SDCARD's ZIP FILES AND STUFF WHEN CHOOSING INSTALL ZIP FROM SDCARD. ALSO THE BACKUPS YOU MAKE WILL BE STORED IN THE /data/clockworkmod/blahblah FOLDER ON THE PHONE SO I RECOMMEND YOU BUY AN EXTERNAL SD CARD BUT ITS JUST WHATEVVS.
Alright you will need a few things before you can install.
1. Rooted Pantech Flex P8010 (oscar)
2. Computer
3. Basic knowlege of adb/fastboot
4. ADB/Fastboot
READ ME (Disclaimer)
WARNING: THIS VOIDS YOUR WARRANTY
I am not responsible for you bricking your phone or anything that you do to your phone e.g. flash wrong zips , drop it in coke ect.
INSTRUCTIONS
Get a file manager such as Root Explorer and delete the FILE in the /system folder called "recovery_from_boot.p". Get the signed zip file for your desired sdcard mount point (either internal or external sd), and put it in your /external_sd or /sdcard folder. Download and put the .img file (also corresponding to the desired mount point for your sdcard) in adb folder and rename it boot.img. Then put the phone into fastboot mode (google it).
Type:
fastboot boot boot.img
And CWM recovery will pop up after a few seconds. Then choose install zip from sdcard and browse to the CWM_flex-P8010.zip and install it. Then reboot into recovery again and YAY! nandroid time :good:
BIG HUGE thanks to atadres for helping me along the way and also making the flashable zip :highfive:

Score dude! Team flex has such a bright future with these devs. Glad I could help

Bravo Timmy!

Timmy after playing around with,it ive,noticed its not able to browse internal sd,card only external,but thats a,minor issue no biggie,really

Yea I will try to add support for internal sd.

If you get the update forcefully, just reroot the phone using the previous method then install the recovery. That is what I just did and it worked for me. Syncing git repos as we speak
@timmythanoob please share how you did it....for knowledge's sake

I used a pantech burst cwm recovery and made it compatible with the flex (recovery.fstab, init.rc,) and I also used a /sbin/recovery file from an atrix 4g to get the resolution right for our screen (qHD).

[GT-I8550/GT-I8552]Official off-topic thread for Galaxy Win/Win duos / Grand Quattro

Hi guys,
So I didn't see any thread for Win or win duos also know as Grand Quattro.
So here is an off-topic thread for anyone with or without the device to vocalise their views and ask about it like in one place.
Ofcourse if any dev's out their working on this device please post.
Happy Posting.

Please give clockwordmod recovery for samsung quattro i8552
What a surprise nobody still try to make cwmr for i8552.
Please make and test it and post it
Thanks

guys can anyone try and see if this flashable zip roots your device.
superuser.
an alternative is the zip attached
these shouldn't increase the binary counter but you never know(if binary counter is more than 0 your warranty is void).
so consider yourself warned.
enter recovery mode I think its vol down + home + power key.
then choose install zip via external sd card
done you should be rooted but since i dont possess this device I dont know.

I used framaroot. works perfectly. ..use it people. Anyone know of 4.2 upgrade? ?

the details about my device is attached please see and let me know how to root because I'm unable to access the sdcard in the android recovery that's why please upload a flashable zip which I can flash using Odin

@Dark Passenger its not working its saying "signature verification failure "
"Installation aborted "
i did it using adb sideload but no use
i tried both "superuser.zip" and "root.zip"
and if i try to install using sdcard it says
"unknown volume "sdcard" " :'(
please help me out

did you have an external sd card...?
and you mean to say the only option rregarding sdcard was install via sdcard no install via external sdcard.
because sometimes there are problems with using adb sideloading.
still try this via sdcard install only.
if this doesnt work might have to see with a device only.
SuperSU

[Q] Hard Bricked Sidekick 4G?

I have a Sidekick 4G. I wanted to install a new custom ROM because how crappy the stock ROM is. Anyways, I rooted my phone which went fine. Downloaded the CWM and everything was fine there. Also, took the Recovery.zip and Update.zip from this site. Extracted the Recovery File and copied it over to my SD Card. The custom ROM I attempted to install was the Glorious Overdose V2 uploaded by ayoteddy. Telling from all the work he's done, I'm pretty sure it wasn't corrupted or anything like that. After I had downloaded the zip file, I copied it into my SD Card without extracting it. So then I went to my phone. I put the phone is Recovery Mode which was fine. Went to Reinstall Package (Blue) and it went to an orange menu assuming that it was right. Then, I clicked Install ZIP from SD Card. The ROM had installed succesfully and I went back to reboot the phone. Upon rebooting, I had heard an automated voice (female) that said "Convert data partition, system is unavailable. Convert system partition." My Sidekick has been stuck on that for the day. It won't get anywhere past the screen where it says "Sidekick 4G" as it powers up. Is my phone hard bricked? I'm a bit new to all of this Custom ROM with Android thing. If bricked, any suggestions to help restore it? But until then, my phone is pretty much useless.

Common the first time go to my threads or the sticky in development an fine the kg2 odin put phone in download mode (2 ways adb or button power an track pad) adb is more reliable but takes longer getting use to it...
Anyways put phone in download mode open the odin an press start (may need drivers) keep trying won't work 1st time ussually..
After that phone is stock root it again, go to recovery an reinstall packages> wipe everything in every menu> go to mount make sure system is unmounted sd card is un mounted an the very top one it un mounted (2 one should be mounted "data" I believe o.o) > install zip > reboot after completed > should now work (the voice will come back on an say its working) don't use it for 5-10 mins after that time have fun c:

In ODIN, I pressed start. But, there was a dialogue box that said "No Binary Is Selected!'. Am I missing drivers? Or is this where I just need to keep trying?

possibly, im sure immorality will have a better answer as i dont use odin rather hiemdall
instruction here is odin ends up failing you
but immorality has proven very capable and am sure will get you through it!

I'm still a bit confused on this. What should I do after I have my phone in download mode and ODIN opened up? Just continue to hit Start even if it says "No Binary Is Selected!"?

You skipped checking your mounts man xD you don't usually need to worry about it after you get the voodoo recovery, but it is always helpful to check first.
You want to see this in your mounts and storage option in orange recovery:
Cache: mounted
Data: unmounted
Sdcard: unmounted
System: mounted
Then you can continue on and pick the zip you would like to flash. And also, you need the pit file for sk4g and the respective tar file for kg2.
Hope this is helpful

Like I've been advising the odin one click only needs the sidekick mount which will download if you don't have it.
Also I believe you mounts are wrong
Cache unmounted
Data mounted
Sd card unmounted
System unmounted
Or atleast that's what mine looks like when I install a rom

Yeah you're right actually, I knew what I was saying, however the way I typed it wasn't the way it looks, it was what they should be set to. The way that you typed them is what it should look like. That was a duh moment for me. Sorry bout that
