Hi guys ino this problems has been posted before bui cant find the answers none of them work.
Basically this is note my phone its my grandads i updated the Firmware from Gingerbread to ICS last week and when people phone him this process stops. Now ive tried going into reject messages settings and having less then 5 and it does nit work. The phone is NOT rooted and will not be as I don't want to screw upp their warenty.
I would normally wipe permissions but I cant since CWM is not installed.
I also cant replace phone apk as I need Root access.
Please any help would be great.
Firmware version. : PDA:LQ2 /PHONE:LPT / CSC:LP4 (CPW)
Stock ICS 4.0.3 ROM
Guess first thing to try would be to wipe cache and data on the dialler app.
Every time ive had this problem though, the only tying thats worked has been a factory reset. Id watch out doing this on an ics rom though, samsung have now admitted the emmc issue and are working on stable kernels but they will probably be out a month or so.
Alternatively you may be able to use an alternative dialler from the play store.

Apologies, i think you'd need to be rooted to install an alternative dialler.

Wiping/factory reset will do the trick, I was having the same problem, coming from pre rooted Gingerbread to flashing non rooted stock ROM ICS through PC Odin.
After wiping problem no more force close on phone.

i wouldnt advise a factory reset with all the info we now know,would you like to be responsible for his bricked phone
i would wait til your in a position to install root safely and use a safe kernel then wipe
What I meant was a wipe after stock ROM was flashed through Odin, doesn't that remove CWM? It IS safe to do factory reset without CWM installed is it? And if you can't use your phone without well, having com.android.phone running and you do just a factorey reset it needs to go back to Samsung anyway. Hard resetting your phone doesn't seem to break warranty to me, does it?
Any advise will be appreciated, I'm still trying to figure out what to do and how to root ICS.
Thanks.
Do NOT factory reset in ICS as it could initiate the superbrick. Only wipe in CM9 or gingerbread.
Ok. Thanks. Already did it though . I was lucky to not brick the damn thing
Rolling back to Gingerbread doesn´t work, unfortunately, I get errors/fc on at least 3 important processes.
Edit: Well, I managed to get Gingerbread working again after all; flashed back to GB through PC Odin and then do a full wipe/factory restore.
wipe cache and dalvik cache will do the trick.
Guys I said that I do NOT have CWM installed nor am i rooted so little of these options will work. But I factory reset it went into reset area of setting and restored to stock and everything works fines now so THANK you also another note my granny's Galaxy s3 had the same problem after fixing the Galaxy note about 3 days after had to reset hers as well and its fine now. I wondered if it could be because i brought both phones from Carphonewarehouse ?
Thanks for your help
I successfully rooted my Tab from ICS to JB 4.1.2 a few days ago and it has been working fine. It suddenly froze in GMail app this evening. Held down power and attempted reboot. All fine until several revs of the CyanogenMod circle then it froze for a few seconds and then blank screened and rebooted with the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 logo before going back to the CyanogenMod circle. Only stops the looping if I power from the mains. Battery is at about 55% and charging.
I have CWM-based Recovery v6.0.1.5 and I installed JB from cm-10-20121112-EXPERIMENTAL-p4wifi.zip
Can anyone help? I'm new to rooting etc..
Many thanks,
Stuart
Try booting into recovery and doing a full wipe of everything.

Many thanks for the reply SouthPhilly. It didn't work
There seemed to be a problem with formating /data. It just stopped when I tried it. Also stopped if I tried restore. The good news is that I did eventually overcome the problem by following qbking77's excellent info on
How to Unroot / Unbrick the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 - Latest at www dot youtube dot com/watch?v=KYBs98R9rTs with file info at
www dot qbking77 dot com/samsung-galaxy-tab-1012.html
which results in a stock original unrooted GT-7510. From there I rooted back into CWM recovery and reflashed CM10 so I'm back with a working version of 4.1.2
I hope this info may help others unfortunate enough to get stuck like me.
I'm now happy again.
Best wishes to all.
Stuart G3SNA (QTHR)
Well perhaps not quite so happy!
For some strange reason I could not get the USB port to work. It did with my first attempt at flashing to CM 10 - JB 4.1.2 days ago but not now. I have tried all ways several times so eventually I returned to the qbking77 version of the stock 3.2, copied my CWM backups back to the sdcard, then reinstalled CWM recovery and restored from the backup. I now have what appears to be a fully working tab with USB connectivity running 4.0.4 ICS again. I'll stay with this untill JB gets a bit more stable. You never know, pink pigs may fly and Samsung may issue an OTA update :laugh:
Why didn't you flash a nightly instead of a ROM thats dated last month? The latest one runs fine on my p7510

Sent from my GT-I9100
I didn't know where to find the nightly files when I first did the root and rom flash. I just followed the links I could find using google. The whole thing looked good to start with and I ran it for the best part of a week before it froze up on me. I learned a lot in the last few days and now feel confident in what I'm doing. I did download last night's nightly this morning and flashed the rom. When I connected the usb cable to my pc failed to connect so I reverted to my original zip file thinking the nightly had an issue. Low and behold the usb cable connection failed with this as well. In both cases I did all the wipes and formats just like the first time. After that I gave up and decided to try to put my Tab back to ICS using the CWM backup I made as recommended before I started the first time. I'm no novice as far as computing is concerned but I haven't rooted an android device before.
If you take a look around the forums here you will find I am not the first to fail to find the nightly files. Perhaps a sticky with the link would be useful?
Hi!
I just rooted my Samsung GT-I9505 a few weeks ago with Odin v3.07 and CF-Auto-Root-jflte-jfltexx-gti9505.tar.md5.
Note that I didn't install any custom ROM.
It worked fine until now.
When I turned my phone off, it got stuck in reboot. The screen is black with a "Android OS is upgrading.. Opening all applications."
It's been 30mins and it just stayed there so I decided to take the battery off, put it back in and turn myphone on.
Now it's just stuck with the samsung logo. And whenever I factory reset and reset cache it, it just get stuck with a black screen with a "Android OS is upgrading.. Opening all applications."
Did I just bricked my phone? Is there any way to fix this?
Any help would be deeply appreciated. Thanks!

:laugh: Thank you! Wow! That's a relief! I thought I'm going to have an expensive paperweight.
Anyways, tried option number 1 and Flashed philz_touch_5.10.0-i9505.tar.md5. All went well until the reboot and it got stuck into the samsung logo. So I removed the battery, put it back on and tried to go to recovery settings (VOL UP + HOME + POWER) but then it continued to reboot and stopped at the samsung logo.
Note that earlier, before I flashed philz.. I can still go to the recovery settings.
Will now try the second option. Just another question though. By pre-rooted firmware, do you mean a Pre-Rooted ROM or the original stock rom? Seen them here --->
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=42798412&nocache=1&z=4556388005148619
Am I on the right track?
If you want it rooted then use a pre-rooted rom or flash a stock rom then root again, your choice really...
i ugraded my XSA 4.3 official firmwate to BTU official firmware. everything is succesfull but now my phone is tuck on Android is upgrading screen. what should i do. please help
Hey XDA, just a long time stalker who has finally given up trying to find his solution on already posted items (I think 10 hours of trail and error means I'm not gonna catch what I'm failing to see...)
When I first got my galaxy s4 I downloaded KangaBean and it was on 4.2.2 I believe. Today I decided I should upgrade to 4.4.2 since I've only been hearing good things about it, and I wanted the slight updates that came with it.
Well, I have a AT&T s4, sgh-i337 that was on CWM 6 when I tried updating to another ROM, the first one I tried was GOOGLE EDITION 4.4.2 BY DANVDH. Did a wipe, cache, dalvik, format system, flashed it, flashed loki doki, said no to re-root/root fix prompt that followed, then I came to the yellow triangle, I thought that was odd, believed I missed something.
So, I downloaded TWRP 2.5.0.2 like the thread suggested, tried again, no luck. Then I tried Unoffical Carbon KitKat, which just caused the "Samsung Custom" logo to stay on indefinitely (I let it sit for 40 minutes before giving up.) After 2 failed ROMs, I tried KangaKat, updated version of KangaBean, so it should be just dandy right? Narp, same luck. This one boots, then reboots into recovery.
At this point I considered myself to be stupid in some way so obvious that I would die before I noticed it. So, then I just flashed the stock firmware thats like 2.5 gb through odin, re-rooted and installed CWM 6.0.4.4 LOKI'd and tried to flash KangaKat, being confident it would work this time, again I got boot to the logo and then reboot into recovery.
At this point I attempted the other 2 ROMs again, multiple times.
After some sobbing, I re-did the stock firmware, tried again, failed again.
My sadness turned into rage, I just destroyed one of my micro sd to usb-s because it was being annoying and I was annoyed, I took a picture and got over it.
I tried a 3rd time with the re-flashing stock firmware and tried with twrp again, no cigar.
Now, after MANY hours and MANY false hopes... I shall be using my blackberry and hoping to return to android soon, if somebody can help me figure out what I'm missing. Many thanks ahead!
Did you do lokidoki after?

Did you doa hard reboot clear the cache and davlik after it got stuck on the lock screen ? It seems odd that it would just not boot up at all. I was about to wonder if maybe it was the CM kernel bug that will keep it from booting past the initial screen but you tried aGE rom so...
Hi guys, I am new here, I am now finding help anywhere about my Note III recent problem...
My note III is SM-N9005 Malaysia version, I did root it with CF Auto Root and I had been using it without problems until yesterday morning,
This is my case :
I realized my alarm was written "Clock has been not responding" and I lost my network service, then I tried to restart my phone,
Since I restart, it became worst, my phone went into boot loop and sometimes freeze on the "Samsung Galaxy Note 3" screen,
But in a few times of reboot, it will be able to boot into homescreen, but still no service for the network, and everything processes work extremely slow, even freezing and crashing!
What I tried to do to fix it :
-I went to the Samsung service center, and the technician said that my warranty is voided (Ofcourse I knew it), and he told me that this problem is due to software problem instead of hardware.
-I did flash my kernel with stock kernel again which was downloaded from Sammobile, but it did not fix my problem,
-And I tried to hard reset and factory reset of my phone, it did not help too,
-I am also tried to clear cache and dalvik cache and reboot the device, it didn't seems working...
I have already done what I could but I still yet to fix my phone, what should I do now, any experts can guild me?? T^T
Thank you

I didn't really know about EFS while I root my phone, I just knew it recently due to my current issue, so I didn't backup it....
Is there any other solution??? Or could I recover my EFS eventhough I didn't do a backup??
BTW, thx for reply~

check your internal card or sd card for a folder called Backups or something similar, if your running a custom rom normally EFS is automatically stored there if your custom rom does do EFS backup automatically at install....if not do a search on the forum for EFS RECOVERY or re-flash your rom it may help or may not, but im sure it wont though...
also read though the link i sent you there maybe some think there that may help you

Thanks guys for the replies
-I went for a search for the backup folder in either of the storage mentioned by I didn't see a file called "backup"... I think I deleted it since the factory reset I've done yesterday, I went to many forums hat talk about EFS, and it wont help my problem cos all of them are talk about "Backup/recover", where I didn't backup my EFS earlier...
-I tried for the IMEI code, that's the reason I know about EFS, it shows "null/null", and most the information are showing unknown, such as baseband version, IMEISV, IP Address, Bluetooth Address.
-My current situation is whatever I flash into my phone, it just wont help, the problem didn't improvise at all...
Thanks..

download Stock firmware from sammobile or samsung updates
turn phone off, boot into recovery mode wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition
turn phone off, boot into download mode
use odin v 3.09 load your downloaded firmware into AP, check update boot loader box, don't check anything else and click start.
once it finishes flashing, it will reboot by itself.
if it fails then you might want to repeat the process above one more time.
if still fails u might want to do emergency recovery via kies.
Good luck and hope this helps.

Hi guys, I think have some new clues to determine my problem now
I flashed a custom recovery into my phone this morning,
and I realise that my /system, /efs and /firmware-modem is unmounted,
I tried to mount them, it was successful, but when I reboot the device, the problem still there,
Boot loop, no IMEI, no Baseband Version, Lag Processes,
and I went back to recovery again, I realised they have been unmounted again...
Any idea what is the problem guys??
Thx

Hi there,
I have tried the kies emergency recovery method, but it was unsuccessful,
My note 3 was connected to the kies, but when I run Emergency Firmware Recovery,
My device was instantly disconnected with kies
And I have also tried the Firmware Upgrade and Initialisation,
The Kies showed me that my device is not supported with initialisation...
Anything I should do??
Thx
