MDH8 FW corrupted my sound

Well, I already have read that the last FW from samsung done troubles with locked bootloader and sound problems. I tried today flashing MDH8 rom like a stupid asshole. Then I decided to go back to the previous one and at the end I succsessfully reverted back to Omega MH1 but the problem is that All my sounds are gone.. Alarm, music. notifications nothing makes a sound..
Has any body also had it?
What can I do to solve that? Is it possible to solve it for now? Thanks.
Edit: guess Ill have to flash Stock MGG or MH8 trough Odin and then pray to god..

Any body?

It's safe. I was on Stock MH8 and rooted using latest CF-Auto Root and then flashed CWM and installed CM10.2, no troubles at all.
However I heard that once you flash a custom ROM it triggers flash counter and you can't go back to Stock ROM again. Don't know if it's true but another member mentioned it in another thread.
It's probably worth sticking with stock until we know more about it.

Im still on MH8 with root at the moment, but you could try a custom rom. If sound breaks again just rinse and repeat.

[Q] Firmware update failed, Wi-Fi and sound doesn't work (GT-I9505)

Hello,
First I must say, that I'm not English native speaker, so sorry for any language mistakes.
I have a pretty serious problem with my Galaxy S4 LTE I9505. I downloaded the latest official ROM for my model (I9505XXUBMGA_I9505OXXBMG3_XEO) from SamMobile and I wanted to flash it via Odin 3.07 (previously I had CyanogenMod 10.2). But during the flashing process Odin give me "FAIL".
After that my phone was showing downloading screen with this information:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: GT-I9505
CURRENT BINARY: Sansung Official
SYSTEM STATUS: Official
KNOX KERNEL LOCK: 0x0
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0x1
CSB-CONFIG-LSB: 0x30
WRITE PROTECTION: Enable
SW. REV: CHECK FAIL: fused: 2, Binary: 1
"Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Of course I was trying Emergency Recovery option in Kies, but it was failing all the time. I also was trying to flash it again, but Odin again shows me "FAIL" during the process. So I choose re-partition with PIT file and stock, branded ROM (I9505XXUAMDE_I9505PLSAMD8_I9505XXUAMDE_HOME). And it works, now I can boot my phone and original recovery without any problems, but unfortunatly I can't enable Wi-Fi module and any function that needs sounds just don't work (phone calling, system sounds, notifications etc.). Kies don't want to update my OS from stock, branded version to newest one (error while updating device). I also tried this on different PC, but it's always showing "FAIL" in Odin.
What should I do to get back to stock firmware? Right now I can only send text messanges and use internet via carrier data plan...

re flash your original updated firmware. let it boot up and then do a factory reset vol up-power and home. hope this helps

You can install the any stock rom that ends on H8
samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9505
You will not have root access anymore and are stucked with unremovable annoying system apps...
But thats the price to pay to have your phone back. I was phoneless for 3 days because of this. I'm happy to be still alive, but also wondering if live without root is worth it..

[Q] HELP! No Sound on Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9505 after flashing stock

Hello,
I have a very serious problem. Recently I have been flashing a lot of ROMs on my phone but I did not like any of the custom ROMs as there wasnt any good ones as I actually liked the apps that came with the stock ROM. So I decided to go back to stock ROM but i found it really hard to find the stock ROMs and after a while of searching I found a stock ROM where i have to flash with ODIN. The file came with four files which I had to flash with ODIN v3.09. It came with files that I had to put into the AP, BL, CP and CSC. I did that but then it failed, then retried without the BL because it kept making it fail and it flashed perfectly but then I noticed that there wasn't any sound what so ever. Any app that uses the speakers would crash, even trying to call someone. Even the microphone did not work. When i went onto S Voice it would say that another app was using the microphone when it wasnt and when i tried playing music it would say that file is not supported by the player and keep going to the next one when it was supported before the flash. So I got really worried and decided to go back to the google edition 4.4.2 ROM that i flashed before but now after I flashed that, there wasnt any sound even though there was sound on that ROM when i used it before. I dont know what i did wrong and what i can do to fix this problem or is it even repairable. I checked some other threads and they said to flash stock ROM with odin with the pit files it will work again but im not sure which stock rom should i flash or what to do exactly because i have flashed so many ROMs already and the problem still remains. The ROM i flashed was I9505XXUEMI8 when i received the problem of no sound.
Please is there any repair for this. I dont care about any warranty or anything. I just want the device fully working with sound on stock ROM. Please is there any solution to this problem, cant find the solution anywhere.

On a side note, is there a rooted kitkat firmware that i can upgrade to without upgrading my bootloader (and activating knox)?

any help appreciated

Hi everyone!
I really hope that you can help me.
I have the galaxy s4 gt-i9505. About 3 weeks ago I updated it via OTA to Kitkat 4.4.2, since than I have a lot of problems with my device!
Randomly the sounds stops working. No ringtone, no system sounds, no keypad tone not even the lock sceen tone. After a restart, everything works just fine again. But I have to restart the phone several times a day! After a while I also found out that if the sounds don't work, the phone also doesn't play videos, youtube or the music player. Again after a restart, everything works fine.
I am running the stock firmware from samsung I9505XXUGNE5, I have tried several factory resets, I have wiped the cache, I have re installed the software via odin. Nothing helped solving this problem.
I really don't know what to do any more and would very much appreciate if someone could help me!!!
Guys im desperate, I purchased this phone only a few months ago, please HELP!!!
Many thanks in advance, Please advise me what file exactly I should use.

[Q] Need an advice/SM-N9005

Hello guys. I'm a new member to this forum, although I have been following it since I had my first android device. I would like to welcome you all and appreciate for your hard work of developing android devices.
So I recently flashed a custom ROM [4.4.2] for my GALAXY NOTE 3 SM-N9005 32GB. It worked perfectly, but I found this clean script for NOTE 3 which freed the device from stock apps. I flashed it using CWM recovery and I followed aroma. After that my phone rebooted, but it was stuck on the start-up screen and it kept rebooting. I was able to go to recovery mode and I wiped data and cache, but it didn't help, so I flashed OFFICIAL ROM N9005XXUENB7 BTU using ODIN. It flashed correctly, but :
* There was device set-up lags
* I had no sound
* No service
* Laggy lock screen
* Camera not working
* Couldn't play videos
* Random reboots
* Unknown baseband e.t.c
I have tried many different OFFICIAL ROM's, with PIT file, but it didn't help. I have also flashed a few MODEMS, but it didn't change anything. I have fallowed a few UNBRICKING guides, but never succeed. I have also flashed many different CUSTOM ROM's, but it didn't help. Sometimes when I flash a OFFICIAL ROM my phone keeps rebooting. All of flashed ROM's were ANDROID 4.4.2
Would anyone be able to help me and get my phone back to life ?
Thanks for your time. :good:

Hello guys. I'm a new member to this forum, although I have been following it since I had my first android device. I would like to welcome you all and appreciate for your hard work of developing android devices.
So I recently flashed a custom ROM [4.4.2] for my GALAXY NOTE 3 SM-N9005 32GB. It worked perfectly, but I found this clean script for NOTE 3 which freed the device from stock apps. I flashed it using CWM recovery and I followed aroma. After that my phone rebooted, but it was stuck on the start-up screen and it kept rebooting. I was able to go to recovery mode and I wiped data and cache, but it didn't help, so I flashed OFFICIAL ROM N9005XXUENB7 BTU using ODIN. It flashed correctly, but :
* There was device set-up lags
* I had no sound
* No service
* Laggy lock screen
* Camera not working
* Couldn't play videos
* Random reboots
* Unknown baseband e.t.c
I have tried many different OFFICIAL ROM's, with PIT file, but it didn't help. I have also flashed a few MODEMS, but it didn't change anything. I have fallowed a few UNBRICKING guides, but never succeed. I have also flashed many different CUSTOM ROM's, but it didn't help. Sometimes when I flash a OFFICIAL ROM my phone keeps rebooting. All of flashed ROM's were ANDROID 4.4.2

Thanks guys for help. My phone is back to life everything is working properly. What I did was (for those who have the same issue)
1. Downloaded the latest stock frimware for my sim card provider (o2)
2. Wiped data/cache, sd card, system format
3. Uninstalled kies
4. Dowloaded odin 3.09 ( I was using 3.07 before)
5. Put firmware to AP in Odin, plugged in my phone and pressed start.
THANKS for help :victory::victory::highfive:

Thank you for the instruction.
What options have been selected while flashing using Odin?
- Auto Reboot?
- F. Reset Time?
- . . . ?

I failed at flashing new rom for SM-900

I seriously f***** up for the first time while trying to flash a custom rom on my cousin's Note 3 SM-N900. I was able to install TWRP and i proceeded to flash a custom rom directly from within TWRP. I kind of got ahead of myself and proceeded to delete/wipe/erase just about everything on the phone before flashing (dalvik, wipe data, cache etc..) and then i proceeded to Install the custom rom directly within TWRP.
Yes i agree i was careless and ****ed up quite a bit but i was so sure it would not go wrong. But it did. Now the phone only loads the initial 'Samsung SM-N900' boot screen and then goes to black. I can still access TWRP and Download modes at will but i am unable to flash a rom or a stock firmware that will work on the phone. I dont know if i ****ed up the bootloader, modem, kernel, etc, but i reckon i did some pretty good damage.
But the fact i can still access TWRP and Download modes gives me hope that i get right my wrongs with your guidance! Please guys help a poor soul out!

So what did you flash or is it a secret rom ?
Sent from my SM-N930F using XDA-Developers mobile app

I first flashed a ROM called Dilshad ROM v8, then when it did not work, i flashed AURORA rom, then Cyanogenmode 13 for note 3 N900 and finally i tried flashing a random stock firmware i downloaded from sammobile page for N900.

Did you use the correct TWRP version ?
Sent from my SM-N930F using XDA-Developers mobile app

Yup i have. TWRP 3.0.2-0 installed correctly on the SM-N900. I can access it even when the screen goes black after the first boot screen by pressing the combination buttons (power + volume up + home)

I HAVE READ THE POST + REPLIES!! Though , he said he flashed a random samsung software.. But how should i know if he did it with the tar.md5 or flashed it as a regular zip... I'm just a guy tryin to help, so any extra addition may help so don't just regard that as useless
Since term flashing is mostly used with recovery mode, so did he put it on download mode and BL the offical bootloader and PA/PDA the software that supports the same bootloader?

am unable to flash a rom or a stock firmware
stock firmware i downloaded from sammobile page for N900.

An idea that is maybe a bit risky is to put back the normal (stock) recovery and try to restore update from sd card or something like that... I'm not sure how safe it is so use it as a least resort... I didn't even hear anything like that its just an idea, it may not work... But hope it helps

Hi
I have a similar problem. I have a note 3 with original UK ROM and wanted to flash my operator ROM to get wifi calling. Both are android 5.0
The problem is after trying to flash the first time I had a problem that the new ROM would not fully flash. reading posts I understood I had to flash PIT file which I downloaded and flashed. After flashing PIT the new ROM did not go in so I flashed my original UK.
After reboot I kept getting security warnings that something has changed and I should reboot. After several boots the problem did not go away.
So I tried to flash ROM again, different tries between UK ROM and my operator ROM, but the phone now only loops at booting. Sometimes it gets stuck at first Samsung screen.
Can anyone please help?
Thank you

I understood I had to flash PIT file NO NO NO .
You don't flash a PIT file without good reason .
SM900 is EXYNOS not Qualcomm model .
So what phone model do you actually have as this threads question is N900 .

Ok sorry I have 9005.
