Video preview thumbnail not working stock 4.3 - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I flashed latest stock 4.3 with odin. Everything went fine except for one thing:
When i open up the stock video player all my video thumbnails are static/not moving. They did move on previous firmwares but not on the latest 4.3. Is there some setting i missed?
I even did factory reset but that didnt work...

before flashing any firmware (if you are not restoring /system etc..) do wipe cache, data, dalvik cache.
So reflash firmware again, use PIT file.

Im not rooted. Only flashed stock with odin. I am a bit scared to use pit file. So only flashed stock firmware with odin. Then factory reset with damsung recovery, vol up and power. This is the only thing that doesnt work. Everything else works flawlessly no fcs

1. You use GT-I9505 model - so your pit file is HERE to download at the bottom. You will find it (if not - press CTRL+F, type pit and browser will show you)
2. We all scared to brick our expensive strong and powerful device, but... If you want to fix everything, you need to go to CWM (or install first it), wipe user data, cache, dalvik cache. Then Plug in your device to Computer, use Odin (I recommend 3.09 because it worked for me - flashed successfully) select PIT file on PIT, select restore HUGE file (probably called home) and mount on AP... Start flashing it...
I don't know what repartition file does but use it is good if you want to restore your mobile phone correctly. I always use for my galaxy S4 and galaxy ace... If I am wrong about PIT, but I always use it and succeed everytime

Thanks. Tried this already yesterday. Still had no preview tumbnails until this morning. They magically move again. Guess it has something to do with media indexing....

If you go to video player app (samsung) you will see your list of movies. The tumbnsils should let you see a preview of the videos. In my player they were all static and would not display a preview. But it does now, and i didnt change anything.

I've noticed that from recovery, when I choose to reboot into Bootloader, I get the fuzzy screen continuously.
What is rebooting to the bootloader supposed to look like?

The original recovery has no "reboot into bootloader" option.
Dude... use a stock samsung rom, use the odin I give on that page and use odin as written in the manual you find there.

Ok, i'll give that a try now. I didn't know it had to be a certain version of Odin.

Still no luck.
Looks like it's stuck like that.
Thanks for your help anyway.
I've also noticed that after flashing stock firmware via Odin, the phone stays stuck on the bootloader, unless I do a factory reset in recovery.
EDIT: I've also just noticed that according to the link below, I am flashing the wrong firmware, but I downloaded the UK stock N8010 firmware from Sammobile. Strange.

You can use my batch file N8000_SaveMyPitfile.zip or N8020_SaveMyPitfile and send me or post the pit file result for control.
As you can see the batch make only a copy of a little portion memory of N8010
So i can verify it (if it is completed for ex.) post it as regular n8010 pit file and post new batch for save my pit file of N8010 16GB!
If you still need the pitfile, I've ordered a red note 10.1 wifi only 16gb. (which is the n8010, I think)
It will arrive this Friday or Saturday; if I'm at home to open the door, that is.
So it might be Monday or later (I'll try to keep you posted)
I'll install a custom recovery and get root anyway. (Is there TWRP for it?)

I'm currently at work, but will have a look when I'm at home.
But as far as I found out, an update via PDA File from Samsung (Stock FW) didn't change anything.
Also all tips on other threads:

It freezes at the Boot Image "Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1"

Yes, use Odin. I assume you have an i337 and you don't have mf3 installed. Get the mdl stock firmware from sammobile.com. You'll have to register but its free. You'll download a zip file. Use 7-zip to extract the .tar.md5 file. Use that file in Odin, PDA. Only have auto-reboot and f.reset checked in Odin. That will install the stock firmware and recovery on your phone.
Edit, a word of caution. As of now, there is no way to reverse your decision of wanting the mf3 update. Once you update you will not be able to put a custom Rom or recovery on your phone. There is limited benefit, my opinion no benefit, to the up grade. Yes you can put apps on your ad card, but only the apps and not the data do you don't save much space. It also take about a gig of additional space just for the update.
so it will be as if you just took it out of the box brand new, right? I don't want any files from twrp or anything to stay on the phone. I accidentally factory restored one time when rooted.... then after starting up the "new" device, the setup worked until one step which didn't allow me to surpass it... i used Odin and followed a youtube vídeo to unroot. also, will it restore my SD card...? if I take out the SD, will it be readable after I put it back in after the startup of the "new" device? thanks. and lastly, does it matter if ive freezes any apps via titanium backup? I've freezed the att updater so the update wouldn't remove root. thanks for your help guys. (yes I'm using the att i337 model.)

It will not factory reset your phone, it will simply reinstall stock firmware, stock recovery and rom. You'll have to factory reset once youre done to wipe everything

Odin will over write any of your frozen files you froze to avoid the upgrade. Factory reset will also delete your apps. Any pics, music, etc will not be deleted.
And yes to your sd card, it should still be readable. Odin shouldn't touch the external card.

and to unroot? another question, once I factory restore, and it starts up brand new, can I root, delete all bloatware, and unroot to use phone e normally? and isn't there a thing you're supposed to do to clear how many times you've rooted or not? I remember doing something with a tutorial I used that reset the count.

It will delete twrp and put the stock recovery on. There is always a chance of a brick when you flash. If you do flash it it'll probably take 10 to 20 minutes so let it do it's thing. Don't panic and unplug anything. Time goes by real show while you're waiting. I just flashed Odin today on my device and it seemed to take forever.

understand that you will likely have to boot into stock recovery and factory reset after the odin flash in order to boot past the samsung splash screen.
I would like to thank everyone from the bottom of my heart. I'm back on stock everything, unrooted. I want to remove bloatware first though. If I root, and delete all the bliarware I dont want through tibu, and later unroot, will the ota for i337 bring back the bloatware? Once again thanks everybody

[Q] jflteatt not liking any kitkat roms

Hi, I was hoping to get some help and insight with the situation I've been dealing with. I'll give as much information as possible so that someone might be able to point me in the right direction.
I have an att galaxy s4 that was purchased and rooted before the mf3 ota that made everything so difficult. I've flashed several roms and decided to go with liquidsmooth 2.37 atm and I'm experiencing a few odd issues (stock mss not working) that no one else seems to have, but for the most part it's running very well. Lately I've wanted to go with a rom using the new 4.4 and I've tried a handful no matter what rom I try I have the same issues. so far I've tried CM 11, Omnirom and Gummy. With all of them everything runs very laggy and glitchy and will frequently freeze until it crashes and reboots. Every single time I've used whatever gapps are linked in the op for every rom and followed flashing instructions to the letter (wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, flash rom , flash gapps, flash super su (if needed) and reboot) and I've even tried different recoveries (both cwm recovery 6.0.4.4 and the latest philz cwm recovery) same results every time. This part shouldn't matter, but I tried flashing these roms while on the original mdl modem and after upgrading to mj9. Let me know any other info you need, but I've tried to be thorough. I appreciate the help.

Correct. I usually just compare the last 5 or 6 characters. If they match it's very unlikely the others won't too.
tried going back and looking in all the threads that I downloaded roms from, can't find md5s for any of them with one exception and thats an outdated version of a rom I'm not currently trying to flash, so I don't see the point in downloading it just to compare the md5
Downloaded an omnirom build and checked the md5 and everything was good, plus I would be surprised if the md5s were bad on all the roms I've tried. Any other suggestions? Should I try two recovery instead of coming?

I'm running out of ideas try twrp recovery. Here is a zip you can flash in your current recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=45511518
flashed twrp and that royally screwed up the phone. opened recovery using twrp and made a back up then did a system wipe and went to install the rom and when I went to do that, the list of all teh files you have to choose from was blank. I could go through different folder levels but the part where it shows the contents was always emtpy. Sometimes I could touch the area and see I portion highlight like it was making a selection but it wouldnt do anything and there was no file name there. Went to restore the backup I made and there was nothing in the list of backups to restore from. Rebooted the phone and liquid smooth 2.37 loaded like a clean flash with none of my info, files, apps, etc so I downloaded rom manger from the playstore and put the latest cwm touch on there. When I went in recovery none of my cwm backups where there or anything so i went to reboot and it only shows the samsung boot screen. Downloaded a few different roms and gapps on my sd card from y computer and put them on the phone and flashed the roms and gapps and still can't get past the boot screen. I'm really open to suggestions on this one.
If it was me, at this point I'd Odin the stock mdl firmware and start all over again. Something's not right with your phone. But it scares me a little since things aren't flashing correctly and there could be something wrong with your internal memory. If memory is bad it could make things worse.
I think your right. Do you know where I can find the stock firmware and instructions for flashing it? I haven't used Odin in a while.

You can get the stock firmware at sammobile.com. it's free but you have to register. You'll download a zip file. Use 7-zip to extract the .tar.md5 file from it and use that in Odin, PDA slot. This is a guide that is not for the s4 but the procedure is the same. It has screen shots in it that help. Don't use any files in it though other than odin. Good luck. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26056924
I haven't read the whole thread, so hopefully these haven't already been covered.
1) Make sure your recovery supports 4.4. Not all of them do. Stay the heck away from TWRP because it's done nothing but suck for Galaxy S4, while it was absolute king for the S3. The wrong recovery can still flash a ROM but that ROM may not work very well.
2) Ensure you do a COMPLETE wipe. As in wipe /system and /data. Make sure your internal SD card is formatted. 4.4 may not use some things & folders that 4.2 and 4.3 did, which might cause problems.
3) If you have an external SD, then make sure 4.4 is using the right path for it to access any important files you may have on it, like apps2sd & such.
Well since screwing things up with twrp I'm back to having a working phone again. I didn't have to use Odin but I still might just to go back to stock and then try kit kat. I went into cwm recovery and formatted the system then flashed liquidsmooth 2.37 which is what I was running. Everything works fine with that except when I use the rom manager widget to boot into recovery, it goes to the boot screen with booting recovery at the top but doesn't go further. I have to use the 3 button method to get into recovery. The other odd thing is that mms works for me now.
I tried flashing gummy 4.4 again since everything is fine in jb but I still have the same jittery twitchiness. One thing I noticed is that when I go into the performance settings in 4.4 the current cpu reading will jump from 300 mhz to 1200 to 400 to 1800 etc just at idle. Is that normal. My note 10.1 holds steady when it's just sitting there.
To answer your questions, I'm using cwm 6.0.4.4 which is kit kat approved and I formatted and wiped everything before flashing and it didn't change anything. I appreciate your help so far and look forward to more insight.

HELP!! Data issues with lockscreen

Hi
Can someone please tell me If I have the correct modem etc as I am still experiencing loss of data when my phone locks! Not sure if it is the modem or something else that causes my signal to go.

I dont want to have to go back to original software but im beginning to9 give up with this issue and it leaves me with no other option
I have attached screenshots of what im running to give you an idea, hope this helps!!!

- Make a Internal Memory Backup
- Go to custom recovery
- Wipe all (data, system, cache and dalvik cache)
- Install STOCK Rom and tell us how it works
*EDIT: I tell u install STOCK Rom coz is easy find the problems. You can flash the Custom Rom u wish and ask in the correct thread later if something goes wrong

Trouble Updating S4 AT&T

So I've had this problem for a while and I think at one point I knew what the issue was, but things came up and I guess I lost my place. I have a GS4 running 4.3 on AT&T, but if I recall correctly it took a long time (longer than it was supposed to in US) for even that update to become available to me. I'm not sure if this phone is set as a different country or something, but I seem to think that had something to do with it when I checked last time. Now when I check for updates, it does say I have an available update (KitKat?) but fails when attempting to update. Download is successful, but install is not. Baseband is I337ucuemk2 if that helps anything. Any help here would be appreciated, thanks.
Install is failing as some of the files it is trying to update has been modified. You would have to be on stock for the update to work.
Remember that there is no direct root method for KitKat yet.

Have you changed any system files and do you have xposed running? They'll break the ota.
Edit, I should have read closer. I think there is an update.zip file you could flash in the general forum. I'll look and see if I can find it.

Ok cool, thanks again...however now another issue. I've tried several times, I can not boot into recovery. Any time I try to the phone just goes black until I let go and then reboots. Even if I get the blue print in the top left, the phone does not boot into recovery. Any idea why this would be?

If you can get into download mode you may be better off flashing the md5 and Odin. Don't know why you can't get into recovery

Me either, guess I'd just flash normally like I would a rom? Or would an update be different. I haven't done this in a while.

If you flash the tar in Odin it's going to wipe your device so backup what you can. You'll need to download the tar file to your pc and download Odin to it too if you don't already have it. You run Odin from the pc

Ok so I finally got into recovery, but am I supposed to rename the file or anything? It keeps telling me:
"-- Verify the file type of MD5, Before Install /sdcard ...
-- Install /sdcard"

Are you trying to flash the update.zip? I'd re-download it. It could be a bad download

So... pretty unhappy. Downloaded the update.zip and flashed in stock recovery, it wiped my whole phone and still didn't update. I saw a couple error messages appear as it was "updating" so now I'm still on old firmware and lost everything on my phone. Luckily I did a Kies backup but still pretty ridiculous. I still lose all save data from apps and all convenience that there was from using my phone for as long as I did. Just wanted to update, shouldn't be this big of a mess. Not sure what to do next.

Well that sucks. No idea how it works wipe you're device. It shouldn't touch the userdata. If it's truly wiped I'd Odin the nb1 tar at this point. Get it updated and start over

That's what I did and I'm finally updated, but pretty disappointed that it took all that just for an update. Hopefully things like that don't continue in future updates...
