[Q] Lost Data on i9003 - Samsung Galaxy SL i9003

Hi,
I have a i9003 with a broken glass/LCD.
The touchscreen is unusable.
Can I read the photos and adresses from the phone?
Thanks in advance

Yes you can. If you know how to flash clockwork mod on your phone if you don't, search for the tutorial on xda. Then go into
CWM recovery connect to pc. Advanced> mount usb storage and mount it. You will be able to access the usb storage on your pc. No touch required. Only the volume rocker key and the power keys are required to work with CWM.
DON'T forget to press the THANKS button if I helped..

[Q] Can't get into recovery...only in Hboot

So I am at work and decided to flash UV script which did not work for me. I have nandroid backup. But at the same time I have the P98IMG.zip file in the root of SD card. Whenever I press Vol Down and Power , it goes into HBoot all the time. It happens so fast that I cannot press power or volume keys to go into recovery mode . I have a USB cable but no microSD adapter. Also cannot access SD card through root explorer as phone freezes when it is booted up.
Any way to go into recovery ?
Take out sd card press volume down and power it will search for the PD98IMG file and wont find. Click recovery then put sd card in

You should use the CWM 6.0.1.0 version. Also, the best idea is to use a secondary SD card, not the internal storage. You will notice that in the recovery, the option names are wrong. The one that says "external" is actually your internal storage.

You need to copy it to the external card if you're staying stock, either in /extstorages or /emmc, depending on hc or ics. Sdcard is your internal partition

Here is what worked for me. I got a lot of help from a lot of people on this site, so I want to share the knowledge.
I downloaded two files (which are attached to this post).
Put both files on your EXTERNAL SD CARD. If you don't have one, get one.
Boot into recovery mode. To do this, shut off your tablet and then press the power and volume up button at the same time. When you see the Samsung logo, let go of the power button only. When you see the next graphic with the android you can let go of the volume button. You should be in recovery mode now.
Use your volume up/down button to highlight 'apply update from external storage' Press power to select
Use your volume up/down button to highlight cwm.zip and press the power button to select it
** When cwm appears DO NOT use the volume +/- buttons anymore. Instead use the touch screen to do the rest of the procedure
In CWM use your finger to choose 'install zip from sd card'
Now, (not sure why) use your finger to tap 'choose zip from internal sd card'
Use your finger to scroll down until you see the root.zip file that you copied to your sd card and tap it
From here, you're good to go. I have no idea why I had to choose the option to choose zip from INTERNAL sd card, especially since I didn't do so. But, regardless, this worked for me. I installed Superuser and Titanium Backup without a problem.
I hope this helps you. I am by no means an expert at anything Android, but this site did go a long way with helping me out. I hope I was able to do the same for others.
One thing I did not understand is why, when I was asking for help with rooting my tablet, people suggested I use Mobile Odin. Mobile Odin requires the tablet be rooted to use it, so using Mobile Odin to root isn't possible unless I am misunderstanding something.
Edit: Now I am embarrassed. I just found this, after the fact.
You're almost there!

I got confused with that too, but I succeeded:
Sorry, Christiaan, but YES, there on the bottom you will find INTERNAL CARD too.
When you choose INTERNAL CARD, in fact it uses you SD CARD.
After choosing INTERNAL CARD, you will see your SD CARD folders. Then you will be able to root it!
go ahead, man!
hi all,
i have no problem in following the guide.... its very simple.
BUT still i get the message (( E:failed to mount sdcard (no such file or directory) ))
i did copy the 2 files "root" & "CWM"..... this is how i did copy them, correct me if am wrong please
1- plug my PG-6200 with Usb to PC
2- the auto window open showing 2 icons ..... "Card" and "Tablet"
3- drag the 2 files into "card"
4- unplug the tablet
5- switch off tablet
6- volume up + power buttons till in recovery mode
7- select apply from external
8- then i get the message in red (( E:failed to mount sdcard (no such file or directory) ))

What recovery do u have?
Pull the battery, then power up to boot loader or recovery so u can use volume buttons to navigate and power button to select ur way to "mounts and storage" and turn on USB mode.
If u cannot see anything at all then let us know what recovery u have so we can tell u how many volume button clicks u need to do and when to hit the volume button.
I use clock mod, so I can only help u if u have that... but someone else will come along to assist with the other recovery.
Good luck
Vs Nexus S4G using tapatalk2
hey thank you for answering i almost sure that i have ClockworkMod Recovery...
so what i need to do ?
Do you per chance remember the version? Was it touch recovery or not? This changes how many clicks you have to do. I've helped a few people with that, but it's important you try to remember or find out which one you have so we can help you. Otherwise I can give you both directions, but there's always the slight possiblity you'll end up doing something wrong.
i think it was 5.1 if im not worng.. no touch thats 4 sure

And if you unplug it then replug it, does the drive disappear then re-appear? Just to make sure it's the right removable disk and not another one.
Edit: You need to unplug and replug once you have navigated to the right section in CWM.
yes tried that, didnt work.. and he did that only in the first time
can you send me print screen ?
or any other way ?

For the computer part, I'm at work and I have very little time. I help people in between actions here and there.
Once you can boot into CWM and connect the phone to computer, there is a possible chance to use ADB to copy files to and from the phone. Copy the entire 'sdcard' contents by typing:
adb pull /data/media C:\backup\
*you'll have to create a directory called backup first.
any alternative way please ??

Don't boot in CWM for adb though, just fastboot (VOL+ & PWR).
There's not much we can do for you azulay4u if you can't manage to navigate and mount the USB nor do you want to ADB pull your data. :/

[solved] [Q] Flashing the stock firmware again

Hello everyone,
I have a Galaxy R and to get root access, I just flashed ARDATDAT's kernel, but via Odin, without installing CWM. Later I found out that the method is obsolete, and now I have the yellow triangle in my boot screen. Later, I installed CWM also.
Now, I am not able to get the official ICS update because of that. The phone settings -> about phone show the following :
Model Number - GT-I9103
Android Verison - 2.3.5
Baseband version - I9103DDKH4
Kernel Version - [email protected] #76
Build number - GINGERBREADXWKI5
I want to flash the stock firmware again in order to get the ICS update. I downloaded the stock firmware for my phone (I am not sure if I have downloaded the correct firmware, It'll be helpful if some of you Gurus confirm that... )
from this page :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1861359 : the firmware I downloaded says :
Android Version: 2.3.5
Country: India
Region: Europe
Carrier: Unbranded
Build Date: 17th September 2011
PDA: XWKI5
Modem: DDKH4
CSC: ODDKH4
Is this the correct firmware? I live in India, and the XWKI5 also matches with the build number in my phone settings, so I downloaded this.
Now, In the guide to flash stock firmware on xda here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1406664 , it is shown that volume down + home button + power button will make the device enter download mode. However, after trying a lot of times, it is not happening. Is it because I installed CWM? I have also installed CWM app on phone. When I choose enter download mode from that, after reboot, my cell just shows the first screen shown in the tutorial, saying "Downloading... Do no turn off target !!" After that, none of the volume up/down/home/power key presses seem to have any effect. I have to reboot the cell to normal mode after long pressing the power key...
I want to go to the next screen of showing 'Warning!! A custom OS can...." but that screen doesn't appear at all...
Thank you in advance...
You downloaded the wrong firmware buddy. Here's the link to the Official Indian ICS Stock ROM.
Regarding download mode, make sure that the phone is not connected to PC via usb cable while entering download mode using Vol down + Home + Power.
EDIT: Resetting the download counter/yellow triangle is not easy. I guess you'll have to live with that. Just ignore it.

1. In the method you are using to get "Downloading..do not turn off target" screen is actually download mode itself.
NO WARNING PAGE WILL COME, SO PLEASE DO NOT REMOVE THE BATTERY AND RESTART YOUR PHONE.
Just insert the USB cable and start flashing via odin.
2. You dont need to press any volume up key to continue or anything to see that Warning page. Because warnings are only given beforehand and not after you have automatically continued.
And FYI the key pressing thing to continue after the warning page will lead you to this screen only
3. As far as you are concerned with the REGULAR WAY of entering the download mode...
WHICH WILL SHOW YOU THE WARNING PAGE AND YOU WILL HAVE TO PRESS VOLUME UP KEY TO CONTINUE...
4. For getting in the download mode in the normal way LONG press the "volume down+home+power button" you will be able to enter it.
5. CWM has nothing to do with the download mode..so relax..nothing got corrupt because indirect way of entering download mode is working.
So enter the download mode by any of the ways aboveand start flashing.
6. Buddy ICS is android version 4.0.4, download any version, preferable XWLP2 Poland rom, because it is the most updated one and the latest one too.
7. You dont need to download Gingerbread (android version 2.3.5) in order to get the official ICS update. XDA has the list of official firmwares for a download and flash procedure
So download any android version 4.0.4 official firmware!!!![
8. For flashing please read our Recognised Helper P hope it does not offend you vikesh.) kataria.vikesh's post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1983262
9. For getting rid of the flash counter/yellow triangle....Try the app triangle away..
But i dont think it is compatible with our device..still give it a try
I hope this post helps you..

Thanks a lot DeepankarS, the post really helped clear a lot of doubts in my mind, because it feels a bit risky while flashing your phone for the first time..
I will try the ICS stock mod link given above by droidster. I have taken a 'user apps + system data' backup with Titanium backup pro on my external SD. Also, I have backed up my contacts on the same. Is this enough? I have heard that there are things like clearing the cache etc, so will I lose any important data even with backing this much up? Sorry, but just want to clear things before I do any mess...
Re: [Q] Flashing the stock firmware again
Good question. You had to make the flash witih the good firmware. There is a way for sure. You have to find it.

Cache wont make you lose any data
and yeah this much backup is enough.
And yes do one thing more...
Once you properly install ICS and CWM, Take a CWM backup of your device..
You can never lose your data then (data at that particular point of backup)
So if you have CWM backup, you can freely, without any problems flash any custom rom via CWM.
So even if something goes wrong while flashing a custom rom, you can restore via CWM.
And buddy always remember these things.
1. ODIN (any version) is to be used just for flashing STOCK Roms and CWM.
2. Never Flash a CUSTOM Rom via ODIN (until and unless stated) . It will brick your device. You have CWM to flash stock roms so dont worry.
3. Never factory reset your device while being on stock kernel, it might activate your brick bug.
Just after flashing stock ICS, download eMMC Brick Bug App to check for brick bug, then only proceed with the factory reset part.
4. For any problems, you always have XDA

Thanks a lot! Did not know that ODIN is used only to flash custom ROMs! I have already installed CWM on my phone using ODIN. I had tried to take a backup using CWM, but then I just cant find the backup files. My System storage had got almost full after I took the backup, and I tried to find the backup file, to move it to external SD, but I simply wasn't able to locate it...so freed some storage space by deleting apps. That's why I took a backup via Titanium Backup this time.... Should I try taking a backup via CWM again??

3. CWM Backup will be there in extsdcard/clockworkmode/ folder.

Buddy that depends on the amount of apps, files and data you have.
So..1.5-2 GB not necessary
Plus selection matters..so..

First of all...thanks a lott for your constant answers and prompt help...
Okay...formatting sdcard means settings->storage->format SD card?? currently the option is disabled...do I first need to unmount it?? Then it will be enabled?? Also, what data will I lose after doing it?? (I know formatting will erase all data on sdcard...but don't know what all data exactly is there on sdcard....is there any possibility of bricking my cell in this ??)

Put the ROM in sd-card without your phone (connect it with PC by sd-card reader) .
Then put the sd-card in your phone .
After that flash it in recovery
