Hello guys/ladies.
I've got P5100 and it seems it got some kind of memory\bootloader lock.
When I reboot my device (or it reboots itself sometimes without reason) it is restored to some former state, e.g. apps, music, widgets, even settings I've deleted/changed before reboot are still there.
I've tried factory reset - doesn't help at all.
I've tried flashing stock rom - also doesn't help at all.
I've tried flashing CWM - can't do it.
Basically, I can't flash anything, even re-partition + .pit doesn't help.
I've updated it's rom before, first I've flashed some european version (pda + phone, and no, I haven't flashed bootloader or csc), then I've flashed official russian 4.0.4 (which includes pda only). It appears the device hasn't been memory-locked right from the flashing, since after reboot it restores itself to much later after-use state.
So is there a method to solve that? Either soft or hardware one, if it is known.
I hope I've described it well. Sorry for grammar mistakes, not a native english speaker.
Try using my guide (link in signature) to restore to stock.

It seems I wasn't clear in my descriptions at all.
I've already tried mostly everything related to "E. Restoring to stock" in that guide.
Yes, I could still access DL mode. I could upload a stock ROM via ODIN. It does so for about 1.5hrs and even states that flashing was successfully complete and goes into reset. But then after autoreset I see old, non-wiped system (even though it was supposed to be clean). The same odd thing goes for factory reset (via 3e) (which isn't related, as far as I know, to flashing your ROM, but still should wipe the system, but does not).
Another things I've tried:
1) re-partition + .pit (lol)
2) using ODIN 1.85 and 1.87
3) flashing CWM 6.0
Things I've don't tried, but doubt it will help:
1) flashing another ROM
2) flashing bootloader
Purely my guess:
Seems like some part of inner memory is now protected from being written to. This part keeps the 'state' of my system. I could still work with my tab, and change/add/delete things, because system-on-run is kept in the different, dynamic, RAM-like memory. On reboot it is supposed to store it's state into the flash memory, after which RAM is cleared.
Yeah, ofcourse system time is okay.
On 1/17/13, i recieved the samsung galaxy s blaze 4g, i know it is an old model phone but i've been trying to root this phone.
This is the first phone i have tried to root and i have failed at it, however i did try my best.

I used these two links to try to root my phone, i followed each step by step, did not check anything but "AUTO REBOOT" but i somehow soft bricked my phone.
I have searched the forums multiple times and i found that i have the same problem as this person.

Once again, i followed these instructions and i ended up at the screen "Welcome to SGH-T769, TOUCH THE ANDROID TO BEGIN" but whenever i touch the android, it gives me and error "GOOGLE SERVICES FRAMEWORK HAS STOPPED UNEXPECTEDLY"
Sometimes, it will get as far as "Setup wizard" but would give me the same error
to think of it, regarding the time when i was rooting, i dont think i had my microsd card in my phone which probably led to the problem, god im such a noob
and as a result i did not complete this step "After downloading all the files first move the Superuser.zip to the root of your sdcard..not internal sdcard but the removable one. Then unzip the Odin zip and once unzipped:

You soft bricked your phone because you are using 4.0.4 as the device now ships with ICS- k0nane's root kernel won't work for ICS. That root method only works for GB. You need to put CWM on your phone to root ICS (flash superuser or supersu zip through CWM). Also once you have CWM on your phone you can flash any ROM -stock or otherwise- to your phone through CWM. The link with the other person having the same issue was resolved...

GOD DAMN, THANK YOU,its so overwhelming though ;/
unfortunately, i am one of those people who literally need step my step instructions and im not too sure you would like to help me through this long process. i have no idea where to start and do i just ignore the google framework error and try to "ROOT" again?
I am very sorry for being such an inconvenience
update: I did all of these steps:
((((((((((((((After downloading all the files first move the Superuser.zip to the root of your sdcard..not internal sdcard but the removable one. Then unzip the Odin zip and once unzipped:
Step 1:
Run Odin 1.85.exe, and prepare Odin:
Check "auto-reboot", and uncheck all other options.
Click PDA and select the TAR for clockworkdmod you downloaded. Click PIT and select the Blaze PIT your downloaded.
DOUBLE CHECK THAT YOU HAVE REPARTITION UNCHECKED
Step 2:
Connect the USB cable to your PC, but NOT your device.
Remove the battery.
Reinsert the battery.
Hold down Volume Up + Volume Down
Then while holding the voume keys plug in USB cable
You should now be in Download Mode
Step 3:
Make Sure repartition is still unchecked and click START in Odin.))))))))))))))
note* for the superuser.zip, i just downloaded the file and dragged it into my microsd, is that right???
-WHEN i am done with these steps, i get back to the "Welcome to SGH-T769, TOUCH THE ANDROID TO BEGIN" but whenever i touch the android, it gives me the same error "GOOGLE SERVICES FRAMEWORK HAS STOPPED UNEXPECTEDLY" again, IS THIS SUPPOSE to happen?
i am extremely confused

Try to boot cwm and factory reset to clear up framework issue. Edit: wipe davlik also (located in advanced) .Yes putting SU zip on your sd card is right. You will need to 'install from SD card' and then choose zip to install to flash su for root. If framework continues to be an issue after factory reset then I would suggest flashing a custom ROM (same flashing process as root normally - read ROM op first!). There are quite a few stock based ROMs that are great. Or you could go straight to JB/cm10. Up to you.. there's so many great ROMs for this device!

Check for superuser or supersu in your app drawer. If either is there (I don't know which one you decided to use) then you are rooted.:good:
wow, thanks a lot, yes I have superuser when I open my apps. This is really more difficult then jailbreaking =p but I would like to ask, what I have to do to get "roms" or "kernels" and "apps" after my device is rooted?
Will changing roms mean I have to re_root?
sorry for having these silly questions but after resolving my problems and hrs of frustration, IM rly beginning to like this phone thanks again in advance

After flashing a new ROM , just set phone up as usual when it boots up... then just enjoy having a kicka$$ phone no need to re-root.. just read installation of ROM good write it down if you must I did when I first started. Look and shop around there's plenty of great ROMs for this phone

Actually, depending upon what time frame you rooted the idont device, rooting this phone with CWM is SIGNIFICANTLY easier than jailbreaking. Your problems of course, started because you didn't come here in the first place. Had you done that, it would have been a breeze.
As for your question about changing roms and will you have to re-root?
Don't look at it that way...If you want to switch to another rom that is applied through CWM, you're pretty much doing the same process you did when you came here, you're just only selecting the other rom through CWM. Don't forget to reset/wipe through CWM first though!

is that not extremely tedious, i thought titanium backup only backs up like game data or soemthing.
is there anyway i could backup the apps that i already downloaded through apptoide and google play?
and also i used http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1919228 to root my phone, does that mean i can only download ics 4.0.4 roms and kernels? (do i download roms and kernels serperately?)
ive heard that jelly bean is the lastest and fastest one, is there anyway for me to get this and what rom would u recommend?

if your rooted on ICS u can flash anything in cwm. For a daily driver I use cm 10, bug free. There's also slim bean, aokp, pacman, paranoid android.
Whatever you choose create a backup first in cwm, than flash ROM, than gapps, than factory reset/wipe cache/ in advanced wipe delvik. Reboot and give it time to boot. I would also recommend a launched such as nova or holo. They will allow u to backup your home screen and drawer preferances , and hide apps. Google can automatically redownload all your apps minus any save data. Tb can be a pain when switching roms, not all apps will work coming from ICS to jelly bean. Make sure and be safe, go ahead and write down all your contacts before flashing. I've flashed jb on three different phones and lost the contacts each time. After the initial flash of jb , flashing updates and such you won't lose any contacts as long as they are synced with Google. Happy flashing

if your rooted you grab the zip from here http://get.cm/?device=t769 , now you need the gapps or known as your Google app pack you can find those in the blaze bible. Once both are downloaded, reboot into cwm. Now flash the cm 10 zip ( go for the newest one the stable is quite old and missing some features) once it completes flash the gapps zip. Now do a factory reset, now wipe cache, last wipe delvik. Once you've done these steps reboot your phone. Now be patient and wait. It can take in some cases 10 mins to completely boot. If everything was done correctly you will be greeted with a setup prompt. Enjoy
Apps from Google play are listed in my apps. Check your apps play page to see what version of android they are compatible with
Oh yeah your ROM has your kernel included. The kernels listed in the dev section are for over clocking and under voltage and are for people who've done this before. Besides I don't use them, not necessary.

I'm having issues with my Galaxy S6. I used Odin to return to stock, and now I'm getting an "Unfortunately, IMS Service has stopped" error every 2 or 3 seconds. The phone is essentially unusable.
Other Galaxy phones have had similar issues, and I've tried some of their suggestions. I wiped Media Storage and factory reset the phone through the recovery. I tried to find the DRM app to wipe, but it's not there in the app manager. Does anybody have any suggestions? They are greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Im having that same issue. I bricked my phone for about a week and I had just got the tar files to open and return my device to stock. Is it saying you have service? Ive been looking this up everywhere and have no luck with the s6 problem.

Why did you return to stock? If you are planning to return/exchange the phone, then you may run into trouble if it is unusable.
3 options:
1. Attempt to reflash stock via Odin and hope it fixes the problem.
2. Restore a nandroid.
3. Clean flash a custom rom.

Android lollipop gives you the option to transfer your apps to a new device when you setup the new device. You are also given this option when you flash a custom lollilop rom, because the setup wizard will see this as a new device. However, you should always make a backup of a good working rom setup prior to flashing a new rom or any mods. When I say a "good working rom ", I mean a rom that you might possibly want to go back to, in case your next rom flash doesn't go well or it has major issues that prevent you from using it as a daily driver (which you won't know until you flash it, obviously). The stock rom is definitely a "good working rom", and you should ALWAYS make a backup of stock before flashing anything else.
Since you don't have a backup of stock, then you are stuck with Odin getting you back to bone stock, which apparently isn't quite doing the job. The only other thing I can suggest is flashing a stock rooted rom (eg, no mods other than root). But make sure you clean flash, which also means mounting & wiping /system in recovery. I forgot how to do it in CWM/Phil's recovery, but in TWRP go to Mount, tap /system then go back to the main menu, go to Wipe > Advanced and select cache, dalvik cache, data and system, then swipe to erase. Now you have a totally clean slate.

Ive tried looking online for software thats compatible with my carrier (cricket) but I couldnt find it. The way that I bricked my phone was trying to flash TWRP recovery on my phone. Cricket is through at&t and has the locked bootloader. I used pingpong root to root it but apparently it wasnt compatible with my phone. I'm kinda stuck.

I have never messed with Cricket phones. I know they piggyback on the AT&T network, but I don't know if the firmwares are different. You could go to a Cricket store and look at the display S6 to find out the exact firmware version, and try to find that on the web (posting in the AT&T forum might yield a faster response). But trying to flash TWRP was not a good idea. Good luck!
I was attempting to return the phone to stock so I could sell it. I flashed the Cricket firmware, and ever since then I get the IMS service error. I can't flash a new ROM because I unrooted through Pingpong Root. When I flash through Odin, I only flash the AP .tar. Would it make a difference if I flashed all 4 (BL, AP, CP, CSC)?

Yes it does make a difference to flash it into 4 different parts in case you have the entire firmware
Just wanted to throw my 2 cents in here, i woke to this lovely issue, which was rendering my phone unusable. I use a program call YouMail for voicemail, creeps my friends out when they get to my voice mail. Uninstall this program after wiping every cache imaginable, voila, no more issue. I haven't tried to reinstall it yet since i need to get some work done. Hope it helps in some way.
I have the same problem after flashing the stock firmware thru Odin on my S6 from Cricket. I also tried Factory Resert and Wiping the Cache, nothing seems to help at all. I get the annoying message about the IMS service. I've tried clearing the cache from contacts, ims service but no luck at at. Is there any other ROMs out there for the S6 from Cricket. Right now my phone is completely stock and has no service. Any word of advice would help, Thanks !
Edit: I flashed the CSC file thru odin and it got rid of the IMS error but now I have no service.

Just wanted to throw my 2 cents in here, i woke to this lovely issue, which was rendering my phone unusable. I use a program call YouMail for voicemail, creeps my friends out when they get to my voice mail. Uninstall this program after wiping every cache imaginable, voila, no more issue. I haven't tried to reinstall it yet since i need to get some work done. Hope it helps in some way.

Not an expert in any sense of the term, so ignore this if it's dumb. When the OP and others having this issue are bringing your phones back up, does the issue start prior to phone setup? Or is your Google account restoring some app that could be causing the issue?
it didnt solve my problem
I have the s6 edge though ..do i have to wipe and install the rom again??
Unfortunately ims has stopped working pop up
I noticed the spinning sync icon at the top my s7 phone. It was constantly trying to sync my messengers app to the cloud. (I tuned the sync function off an it seems to have stopped the annoying message from popping up. :good::fingers-crossed:
eeee

I was attempting to return the phone to stock so I could sell it. I flashed the Cricket firmware, and ever since then I get the IMS service error. I can't flash a new ROM because I unrooted through Pingpong Root. When I flash through Odin, I only flash the AP .tar. Would it make a difference if I flashed all 4 (BL, AP, CP, CSC)?

Hi guys, I just registered @ xda because it looks like it's the only serious and feedback active community available. In 10 minutes I found most of the info I was looking for, but I still want to make sure what Im planning to do is fine before I mess up again. Here's the issue:
I was fooling around with the tablet and had just rooted it so I could get rid of some bloatware, and decided to go further and install cyanogen, just for the looks. So I got this thing cm-10.1-20130411-EXPERIMENTAL-p3110-M3 from the official site, which was I put on a folder inside the tablets storage (not on the 16gb SDcard it had in it). I downloaded Rom Manager and skipped through the "search and download rom" and went for the option of looking for it inside the SD card. I had the Backup options and the wipe cache and data ON.
So I proceeded and it booted, started to do the backup and at some final point it had an error, something like "could not backup Data!". I had the options of rebooting, some other stuff and the option of installing a rom from the SD Card. I went for it and searched for the .zip inside the storage, and installed it. It did it withouth trouble, and when it finishd it prompted me to install an update, which I didn't (don't know why).
Then, I went for the reeboot option and when it started I get the normal samsung's black screen with the device's name on it, but then I get a fast glitching image that sweeps through the screen and the cyanogen startup logo which gets stuck for ever.

Now Im past it, I can get to download or recovery mode, so I moved onto getting the original firmware so I can clean-install again. I got it from sammobile, chose the one belonging to Chile (that's where I got the tablet), and it's 729mb of data. The tablet is a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 P3110
If I flash it with Odin will everything be fine? All I have to do is that thing in downloadmode when I rooted it, but with that 729mb file? Should I put it in the external SD or is it more convenient to place it in the internal storage?
I appreciate your help in advance, I know this is as basic as it gets but messing up again would cost me dearly, since I have to do other stuff.

It's fine to flash through odin, you will back at stock provided you don't overlook small details and do exactly like the way it is shown. Don't worry, Don't panic. Just be careful to use the files meant for your device only. Second be extra careful when you are dealing with kernel file, pit file or reparation in odin in future.
Third, get root and custom recovery,twrp.
Fourth, after your device start running take backup from twrp recovery. That will save you from most of the trouble.
Most of the details and instructions are already here

hey thanks a lot, im feeling better ow. There's just one issue left: I cant download the original firmware (it's 699mb, and the download keeps stopping midway through it). What happens if I go into clockwork recovery mode and do a factory reset? would that bring me to the original OS? Im kinda scared of downloading an erroneous file again.
EDIT: im doing a factory reset and then flashing this rom called AOSP Project Android 5.1.1 Lollipop on Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 P3110 which is a 161mb file. Will that work?

Factory reset is just clearing data and cache, if you have made changes in kernel or system, factory reset won't reset them, in your case, system has been altered so you will have to format system, then flash the new rom. If you were on jelly bean stock, you are good to flash it.

You guys have helped me a lot. I've worked everything out and now i've got to reinstalling android on it, AOSP's 5.1.1 Lollipop. It's beautiful. There's just one problem: Since it came with no apps at all, I wanted to install everything on it again. Problem is, when I go to google play, it shows that i've already got my apps installed, so it wont let me download them, and it doesn't matter if I place the APK's inside the tablet as there's no manager to open them. Even if I download apk's through the tablet's own web browser, it says it can't open the file. Any ideas on this?
Hello all.
It's a long story and I will try explain my problem as good as I can.
So it all started a year ago on my other s7 edge. It was rooted and I was running a rom. Loved that one. Not gonne name it because my screen totally burned in with an app. It was due the screen was broken. So samsung gave a new one for free. They didnt even check.
This is where I think things go wrong. I had to wait a bit so my boss gave me his old htc for the time being. So finally I got my new edge. A week or two before npugat update. Now after nougat I notice things are not right. Allot of core apps don't upgrade. So had to do it manually.
Okay no problems. So called help support. They ticked auto update on wifi and mobile a few time. And he told me. My co worker told me about this weird bug. If this doesnt work you need to make a new google acc and samsung acc and factory reset. So I was like hmmm no. Allot of payed apps.
So I was thinking... lets check some stuf. So I activated the dev settings and then backup and restore. And there it was an option called auto restore after a new installation... well my last login was on a htc.
So okay i have tryed allot and here are things I have discovered.
-Core apps are the most early version there are
-If I go to google play store or samsung. The most basic apps like email and clock and so one. It says not compitable with ur device. Even if I update it manually.
-If I want to report stock apps it will always say app id or package name are missing.
-A few app permissions only work.
-I also didnt update a few apps and they had five or more new releases. Still says nope still ot will say its the latest version.
-So software update still works. Last week a new security patch. But really everything is messed up.
-Cant manual update any apps any more. Always app conflict or not compitable.
-So I installed a few device software and hardware info. Radio unknown sdk unkown and so on.
-So finally installed an emulator and runned the command $sh getprop. U can guess allot of unknowns and false and negative settings. With negative it says -1 or -0.....
So im really clueless. I need a real total clean wipe. Reinstalled bl cp and ap and csc.. If I will check off auto restore after new device or restore and flash it with odin. Will this solve this issue?
And what are the proper odin settings and do I need to use the pit file? Cus Somehow the latest update tryed to install core apps on my external sd card... Its a 0 mb card since I dont use a sd card.. But I did had one on my old one.
I hope to get some tips. Because this time I wont flash or root without someone else his advice. Everything I told is in a period of 4 months.
Thnx in advance. Hope to hear soon.

I would try flashing the stock firmware via Odin, download the firmware and place it in the AP slot in Odin with default settings and options, don't change anything in Odin. Then flash it.
If it bootloops after flashing, boot to stock recovery and factory reset/wipe cache in recovery.
If that doesn't work you can try flashing the firmware again along with the PIT for your model number. Place your firmware in the AP slot then find the PIT tab in Odin and place the PIT there, then in the options for Odin, make sure the "repartition" option has a check beside it, then flash the device.
Again, you might have to boot to recovery after flashing to wipe the device if it bootloops after flashing.

Thanks for the quick response.
Will this clear core apps aswell? And will it apply the "Restore settings and system" after the flash? Since last time I used odin in this way when it says wiping date it instant completed that part.
And about the bootloop. I work for a company I flash software directly on the boards. When u flash directly on a board a bootloop is good and can take up to 20 minutes. Since it have settings who need to be aplied for the next step. And those only get aplyed after a reboot. Does this count for odin aswell perhaps? When it bootloops keep it doing for a while?
Thanks

Taking a while to load at first startup is normal, but bootloop is not "normal", sometimes bootloop happens depending on the operating system being flashed but generally speaking bootloop should not happen under normal circumstances when flashing with Odin.
As for clearing your apps, it should automatically format the system partition before it flashes the system.img which "should" overwrite the existing system partition with the new system.img.

Ahh okay. Will do you steps then. Hope it will work. I do have one last question.
I've just read before you flash. You have to remove all securitys like fibgerprint and accounts. And after the flash when you get at the setup. They say skip all. And add everything after so it wont restore old stuff. Is this true?

I don't have a Samsung device that requires these steps but it sounds like solid advice to me though. It sounds right because doing it that way means you're signing into the device without associating it to anything from before to let it complete setup without issues and then setting everything up after. Then if any of the things you re-associate cause issues, it will be easier to resolve than it would be if you flashed and restored everything during setup, doing it that way makes it hard to fix things because if something doesn't work it can cause your device to not boot properly. Doing it the after setup avoids some of those issues.
