lost internal memory storage photos after i flashed stock rom on my phone. ran Dr.Fone with no results. Are my screenshots/saved images lost forever or is there some way to get them back?
I am pretty sure they are gone.
If you can post your device details, it would be of help to point in the right direction.
I have a samsung galaxy s4 i337
rooted and had 4.2.2 and wanted to update to 4.3 (didnt get updates pushed to it) so i manually downloaded 4.3 and flashed that to my phone using odin.
not sure what other details to give, let me know if that helps
I do believe you have lost them forever.
Please post in AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
just to take a second opinion from the right experts.
Alright, and yeah i have posted there as well. Thanks again for your help.

Here is the thing. I have a rooted T-Mobile Galaxy S5 (SM-G900T) and i accidentally bricked it a few hours ago.
I have been looking all over the internet for a way to unbrick it and found some guides. They all gave me a link to SamMobile so i could download the firmware but unfortunately the stock firmware I downloaded from SamMobile.com was corrupted and it took 2 hours to download.
The phone bricked because i managed to fill up the 12gb of memory it has and went into recovery to factory reset it. (I tend to factory reset all my phones from time to time). When i was about to hit factory reset i accidentally touched the button for installing a different ROM. I then proceeded without reading the warning :----)
Now. The phone can go into recovery and download mode normally. But it stays fixed in the Samsung Logo when booting.
Im going to use Odin to reinstall the stock firmware but since im a newbie at this i REALLY need an expert's advice on this. Any help will be apreciated
-Ps. Im desperate. It's my only tool (besides the old and slow emachine im typing on right now) that i use for school projects and reports, i cant afford to lose it now.
thanks in advance
Hi!
Here's a thread with stock firmware that you don't need SamMobile for.

Hey all, I'm new to the forum (although I've been crawling around for years without a name)
I recently got hold of a Verizon Galaxy Note 3 SM-900V from a buddy of mine who bricked it or something. I have great experience rooting my devices so I figured I'd take it from him and try and get it working.
I'm not 100% sure what he has tried to flash, and hasn't but I'll tell you where my issues are, maybe someone can help!
Device doesn't go passed the Verizon screen. The bootloader is unlocked, but by the looks of it he did NOT install any type of Recovery System other than the original Android one. I've tried to see if I could flash any on the device, but it appears I can only use SafeStrap, and in order to install the device must power fully on. I've gone into the normal Android Recovery, deleted Cache, and Data/Factory Reset multiple times. Still goes to Verizon Screen.
Than I figured I'll just push 4.4.2 back in through Odin. Nope. I have the stock firmware and everything, but it stops on Odin at Aboot and my phone will say Fused 3 Binary 2? I'm really lost on that, I know it's due to the bootloader being unlocked.
It seems the only thing in Odin that will pass is the "unified KK Firmware." I'm kinda at a lose on this phone (luckily it was free) but I really would like to get it working.
Thanks in advanced and I really appreciate all the hard work everyone does here.
I'm really stuck on this.
I can't load stock, I can't recover, I can't factory wipe. Anyone?
What version do I flash? NC4? MJE?
Also, when I try and flash with stock recovery (since my buddy didn't install Safestrap) I get a error message. I believe it's footer is wrong -signature verification failed. I'm not sure what this means?
Thank you guys. I'm sure I can get this phone to work since I can get it to turn on, it's not a full brick.

I really appreciate the help. I'm going to check it out and hopefully be good to go from here. Will update this thread with the info if it goes through, and if it doesn't I will be posting in the other. Again, thank you so much!
Ugh... Still no go. Same thing.
It fails at the aboot.mbn
Again...asking for help in that thread is your best bet.
I think there is something wrong with my bootloader. Is there a way to reset or lock it? I tried everything, it won't load past the red verizon screen.
I'm noticing my little Android in the back of Recovery Mode says "No Command" also. Kinda strange.
XDA Assist is here to help guide members to where they should be able to find help. We don't do support I'm afraid. Please ask in the thread I linked. And again, they know your device best.

Hi, i bricked my Xcover 2 gt-s7710l by flashing some random modem for S3 mini, now i debricked it by flashing gt-s7710 full service rom and doing nand erase all option in odin, but the gt-s7710 and gt-s7710l aren't quite similar, so i have a problem with internal storage now (it shows 0.00 mb and i 'm stuck in factory mode), so what i want is someone with a healthy S7710L to make a full back up with efs professional (you don't have to back-up your /efs or /system or /data or anything included inside stock roms like modems, just the partitions that make the phone work and that are not included in normal roms), and upload it to a safe place where i could download it (preferrably to google drive). I will give 10 usd to the person able to give me the files to make my phone work again or to give me a solution to my problem, so yeah, my question would be, where is the right place to post that kind of request on this forum, since there is no official Xcover 2 subforum?
Hi,
I can find nothing relevant on XDA for your device and issue, so asking here would be best...
> Android Development and Hacking > Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
I would suggest trying sammobile website for your exact firmware and flashing with Odin. If it's not there, hopefully someone can help when you post in the section above.
Good luck!
Thank you. Thread closed.
OK... so I know better, but I totally screwed up my Core Prime by trying to root it and install a custom recovery. And I thought it would be no big deal, right? I figured I would just flash it back to stock and carry on. WRONG. I have been all over the internet looking for the stock ROM, a rooting solution that works, and I can't find anything.
The problem is, the specific model I have is SM-G360T1- which is the GSM / MetroPCS piggybacked on Tmobile version. And I can't find ANYTHING on it besides other people like me crying in the wilderness about the lack of root methods, custom ROMs, inability to flash it back to stock, etc.
So, I have a huge favor to ask- would one of you XDA badasses be willing to maybe cobble together and upload a stock Odin file for me, if you happen to have one of these Galaxy phones sitting around in an unbroken state? Or, failing that, tell me what I can do to fix it? I can't get the phone into anything but download mode- it won't boot, won't go into recovery. Kies is blissfully unaware of it. I can't even connect it as an ADB device- download mode is it. I have traveled the internet for the past eight or so hours trying to get a clue as to how to fix this, and nothing.
Please help me, if you can find the time and inclination. Thank you.

I rooted my SM-T111 with method given here:
http://techbeasts.com/2014/07/09/install-cwmtwrp-recovery-and-root-samsung-galaxy-tab-3-lite-sm-t110sm-t111/
Well rooting went smoothly,afterwards I just simply went to Recovery Mode(Just to explore).Afterwards I decided to reboot into system and kept aside my tab and went to complete some work.When I came back I found that it was still at the TWRP recovery page.I tried rebooting again and again and again...
Everytime I kept returning to the same screen.
I searched around the web and came across some solutions,however none of them are completely for my device so I want to ask for some advice.

Considering that I never actually Flashed a ROM or Did an OTA update , would the above mentioned methods work without f*cking my tab more than it already is.
Should I flash a ROM for SM-T111 and check or After flashing ROM use the code or do something else.
PLEASE HELP ME!
Any Help is appreciated.
