Hi there! Am new here so hope I've got the right forum thread. Apologies for my naivety in advance!
Wondering whether someone can help me with a weird power button problem I'm having.
My S5360 is occasionally automatically switching itself off. Also the power button doesn't seem to be working.
I know the button itself is working because I can enter recovery and Odin mode by pressing all three buttons. However when booted into Android it doesn't function. I can't turn off the phone without removing the battery.
To try and resolve this I've been tickering around. I thought it might be the Android version I had, so I installed a Custom Rom. That made no difference. I've also flashed the firmware. That didn't seem to make any difference.
The phone is rooted already.
Here are its current version numbers...
Model Number: GT-S5360
Android Version: 2.3.6
Baseband Version: S5360XXLH2
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7 [email protected] #1
Build number: ChobitsDigitalisV2.Reloaded
Maybe I'm doing something really stupid. Or need to follow a certain procedure.
But if someone can help me out, it would greatly appreciated. I consider myself reasonably technically-minded. However am pretty new to Android.
Any help greatly appreciated!
All the best,
DJ Finsletown
thats weird...try to flash stock rom via odin...it helps..gud...

** rooting is new for me,

Hi guys, i just got my Galaxy Tab I/O Limited Edition 32GB Wifi only..

Can i flash custom roms? sorry to ask, but im a newbie in this. seems confusing ...
Hi mate.
I'm new to all this myself.
First you need to root your device:

Then you are ready to flash a new rom. I used the task650&phantom rom and I'm going to use the pershoot kernel when I find out how to do it.
Here's the rom:

My advice is to just take your time, do a bit of research and follow the steps carefully. Oh and back up.
Off the top of my head you will need the following apps: RomManager, titanium back up and titanium back up pro.

A quick way to see if its rooted (doesn't always confirm if you've moved files and/or apps around) is to look at your apps list for "Superuser".
If its there and you didn't put it there, you're probably rooted.

Thanks Paul!
I followed the instructions, but it went to FastBoot instead of Recovery.. how do i fix that ?
No probs. I'm sorry I haven't got a clue how to help you with that,
I'm sure someone on here will though.
Anyone has any idea how? Im stuck on the Fastboot , couldnt get on CWM after flashing via odin.

Not to sound like a total jerk... But i recommend that you read and read ana read and watch many vidoes before you start flashing/rooting/modding/hacking/whatevering...you will thank me for this later when you DONT screw up your device... There are a few guides within this forum that are decent... Still not noob friendly like they should be but after some good reading i think you can get the hang of it...
Hi
My Galaxy Tab P10000 doesn't recognize the MAC Adr of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
I can't use it. I can use only3G to access the internet.
This is my Tab Conf:
Firmware: 2.3.3
Base Band: P1000XXJPZ
V. Kernel : 2.6.35.7 [email protected] #2
Build No. : GINGERBREADAD.XXJQ1
PDA: P1000XXJQ1
PHONE: P1000XXJQ1
CSC: P1000XAJQ1
Any idea about this problem and how to solve it?
I hope that someone help me.
Thanks
Don't want to state the obvious but are they turned on in settings?
Is your device rooted or all stock?

Hi alexgogan
When I turn on the wi-fi, after a few minutes appears the message ERROR and I can't connect or detect any wi-fi network. When I turn on the bluetooth, after some time he turn to the first step.
In the info Tab, the Wi-Fi and the Bluetooth mac address is unknow and the state is unavailable.
I've installed a stock rom (this rom) with the Odin. But this problem is prior to this installation.
Please help me. Thanks.
Sounds like there is modem failure. You may need to flash new modem again.
Would suggest reflashing stock rebooting and trying again.
If it was like this prior to flashing this build that may be the problem with original install.
How long has wifi not been working?
Thank you for your feedback.
The wifi stopped working after an upgrade via Kies, in November. Later I discovered that the bluetooth does not work too.
After that I made some ROM updates, but without success until today.
My questions to your sugestions are:
this modem (in my Tab) is in the correct version?
How can I flash the new modem?
which version?
by Odin?
Sorry for not getting back to you.
But if it's a mess with kies its strange.. But would not be surprised though if you got fault device with wrong stock and the official flashing messed things up.. So depends how long you had it, if it's still under warranty then Sammy must fix it, but not unless it's been rooted and the will use any excuse to get out of fixing it.
But odin will have no probs with chains cf root as well.
Just wish knew what it was before the flashing. I cause you might have changed things in the process. The it will depend on your carrier as well so www.samfimware.co will tell you and this wiki one of the guys put up should also help... But lot depends on your device for which carrier as some radios are modified and if you have wrong one then that would explain a lot.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_Tab
That or your actual physical radio is bust as well so then is hardware and no flashing will fix.
First of all i would like to tell you that i am a newbie
I rooted my Samsung Galaxy S 4 (SGH-i337) Having info as follows --
Firmware Version : 4.3
Baseband Version: I337UCUFNB1
Kernel Version: 3.4.0- 1921628 [email protected] #1
Build Number: JSS15J.I337UCUEMK2
Now after rooting my wifi is not working when I switch it on its shows error and turn back off. If someone could please help me get my wifi back without unrooting or bricking my device I would really appreciate it. Please remember I am a newbie please talk English. I found tons of ways to solve the Wi-Fi problem but cannot find the PDA file to flash using Odin if anyone could find that file for me for my specific phone I would be more than happy or if anyone has an easier method to get the Wi=Fi working again please let me know thanks!
I must be terribly impatient or not understanding what I'm doing, probably both actually but I cannot for the life of me find a working method for loading a custom rom on my phone. Could someone PLEASE point me to a resource that will work for my phone? Info provided below:
Samsung Galaxy Note 3
Provider: Verizon wireless - USA
Quoted info from settings > About Phone:
Model number: SM-N900V
Android version: 4.4.2
Baseband version: N900VVRUCNC4
Kernel version: 3.4.0 [email protected] #1 MON April 28 16:42:37 KST 2014
Build number: KOT49H.N900VVRUCNC4
Hardware version: N900V.07
Security software version: MDF v1.0 release 2
I have root access thanks to towelroot
I have supersu as well. Every guide I've found for different rooms has been busy. I've only tried safestrap methods because I know I can switch back to the stock rom slot and have a working phone again. Im weary of methods that wipe out the stock rom as I really don't want to end up with an unbootable brick.
Ive tried cyanogenmod, and a TouchWiz room who name I can't think of at them moment. Both roms simply booted to a black/blank screen.
I really like the simplicity of cyanogenmod and it is my preference but I'm open to others. Can anyone please advise me on my options please, I've about reached my words end here. Why must these companies make it so hard to make the devices we pay hundreds of dollars look/act/be the way WE want them to be as the now owning consumer?!?
Thank you for your time, help, and guidance, I have nothing but respect for all the developers in this community, wish I understood the system better so I could be of more help as well.

Do we need NC 2 and how would we install it?

I'm in a similar sitch. I have rooted my phone after the NC4 assault using towelroot. Note to those who plan to use it: there are some hijacks out there. Don't go to towelroot.net for example. I have downloaded a couple of safestrap apk files and have been reading up on how to install safestrap. Once installed, then what? I think I need to install the NC 2 kernel but how? What's a kernel anyway? How is flashing a kernel different from flashing a rom? How is an android kernel different from a linux kernel? I can't see a way to run linux commands anyway...
Hi guys! There's a ton of guides on the forums that answer your questions. If you need help you are best of posting the exact steps you took up to that point and at what point you are stuck. Wikipedia also has a ton of information on the basic computer science stuff (what's a kernel? etc...)
Good luck
Here is what I am currently running
The phone is currently rooted.
GM-G900V
Android Version: 4.4.4
Baseband version: G900VVRU1ANI2
Kernal Version: 3.4.0
Build Number: OptimalROM R12-6
I want to upgrade to MM and install this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/unified-development/rom-ressurrection-remix-mm-t3275340
I also want to upgrade my kernal.
When everything is said and done, I of course want to be rooted.
Now I cant seem to find answers anywhere. I love this site, but finding a helpful guide is painful. So many different version of threads. I found several threads where people were asking the same thing but there were no good answers. So I imagine this could help others too.
If someone could tell me exactly what I need to do to upgrade to MM and get this new ROM installed, I would be insanely grateful.

Hi skoad
You have a Verizon and, as so, you may first start by reading the below:
[GUIDE] Unlocking the Galaxys S5 Bootloader using DEV Bootloader [KK-MM]
As soon as you find yourself comfortable, you will need first update your Bootloader (mentioned above) and Modem partitions. To do so you should flash a Sammobile firmware using Odin.
These are the firmwares available for you but only the first one is Marshmallow and your aim.
You may follow these general instructions obviously regarding your device data.
The Kernel update will be done by the ROM you are focusing to install and it will be rooted already.
Let us know how it performed with Stock.
Cheers.
.
Thanks a ton. I am pretty busy this weekend but will be giving this a shot Monday and will report back. What youve provided seems very helpful and straightforward, just what I was hoping for!
