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

I tried to flash from darky's rom back to I9000UGJK3.tar
Using Odin i selected the s1_odin_20100512.pit then pda for I9000UGJK3.tar
Things went well with Odin but when the phone trys to boot the splash screen just flashes endlessly.
Im guessing i pooched something along the way.
Download mode works but not sure how to get this stock rom back on.
Any suggestion would be appreciated

You shouldn't use a pit or re-partition for a 1 file firmware.
I know i messed up,
Anyhow i just flashed I9000XXJPU, selected re-partition, and selected
PDA,MODEM,CSC.
Everthing worked then, when the phone rebooted, it says cannot mount sd card, use UI something. Then it just flashes the logo screen like before.
Update: reflashed with I9000UGL2 and the phone works now.
Now if i could only figure out what my original firmware was, Kies does not work now
To go back to stock:
1) Back up things u love
2) Make factory reset. Any reset options you can get
3) Wipe
4) Download firmware from samfirmaware.com
5) Patch with all 4 files
6) Factory reset, wipe, clear cache
Done
Well i followed the instruction from this page:
If you had enough or want to send it back in for warranty and want to go back to a STOCK ROM, this video shows how to go back to a 2.2.1 default ROM which in this case is JPY based - Made by AndroidGalaxyS:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1009197
The problem now is I cannot remember what firmware i had. My phone is not coming up as a bell phone and the code to reinstall the provider apps will not work.
I think im screwed, have a feeling there gonna know i was messing with my phone if i try to bring it back, which is what i want to do. I have a extended warranty from Future shop, and supposedly they will not honour it for any software related problems.
Also now when my phone boots i keep getting a gallery force close. The phone is like a semi functional brick right now.
Not sure if the firmware is region specific in Canada as well but i got my phone in BC?
Usual Darky f9999 my phone repair kit .
Boot to restore wipe Dalvik cache followed by factory reset and wipe .
Boot to download mode flash stock rom with pit relevant to that rom and repartition checked .
Once working you can upgrade as you want .
jje
Sarcasm, just do as stated above. Find the default canadian firmware. If you can make make ur phone upgrade/update with kies, without messing with kies itself you r home.

Hi
I reflashed my S5 with a stock rom to remove all the Carrier blocks and extras. After the flash the device booted up and instantly came up with the error saying acore has stopped working and then around around 5-10 seconds the phone reboots and does it again. What can I do?
Thanks

It's hard to answer since you provided no crucial details about your phone, configuration or how you flashed it.
You didn't tell us which S5 model you have or your carrier. Nor what firmware file you flashed, so we don't know if it was a compatible file. No Odin log, so we don't know if the flash had errors or not. And you didn't describe how you flashed step by step so we don't know if you missed essential steps.
At a guess, try wiping the partition cache from recovery mode. Then if necessary, do a factory data reset as well (will delete user files!). If you have ongoing problems, then you should restore your backup and try again from that stable condition.
No backup? That is a bad habit to say the least. In that case, flash a full stock firmware image that matches the carrier that the phone was originally sold for.

The Model is SM G900F. Its On Three Carrier. I Flashed A STOCK (From SamMobile) Firmware 4.2.2.
The Flash Process Was Successful. No Errors.
Put Device In Download Mode
Connected To Computer
Loaded Firmware Into PDA
Ftime reset
Auto Reboot
Started The Flashing.
Completed.
Phone rebooted. Got Acore has stopped. Then the phone reboots.
But since I needed my phone working quickly I took the path of factory reset and that seems to have fixed it. I did try clearing the cache but no effect.
I believe I know the issue. I used a launcher called Themer. I have reasons to think that was causing the issue because as it was loading in the background I managed to quickly hit the continue button to close the crashed process boxes and as the Launcher finished "Loading" it when it rebooted.
WARNING FOR OTHERS. Always Remove Other Launchers Before Flashing As A Precaution! (Warnings From Newbies Hehe)
I found the guide to install Lollipop onto the S4 and decided to try. I had backed up everything with Titanium app, then backed up everything with Safestrap before continuing. I did a factory reset in SafeStrap but then also formatted /system..my phone rebooted and is now stuck in a boot loop with no SafeStrap screen.
Went into recovery mode and did another Factory Reset, this stopped the boot loop but now it is frozen at Galaxy S4 screen, I'm guessing because there's absolutely nothing there for the phone to boot into.
I am now trying to flash stock Kitkat using Odin but now I've come across another problem.
Booting the phone into download mode does not work either. I have tried two laptops, one of them worked with Odin before this mixup so the drivers are fine. Neither laptops detect the phone, so Odin never finds it for me to flash the stock rom.
Recovery mode is the same thing, the laptop never detects the phone for adb to work.
One odd thing is that when the phone is plugged in the phone is stuck at the empty battery with the loading circle but the circle is frozen. It never moves past this screen to the battery that shows the charge percentage.
Is there anything I can download to fix this problem using revovery's "apply update from external storage"?
My phone is SGH-i337 and before I messed everything up it was on 4.3 MK2. The only option I have is to use the Android Recovery. Where is the MK2 rom that I can flash using the recovery?
It should work. Wiping /system is unrelated to download mode.
- Different usb cable
- Different usb port
- Reinstall drivers
- Different pc
- Run Odin as admin
Run ODIN As an Admin it'll work
Thanks guys. As it turned out, two of my cables only charged and didn't have a data connection. The third was actually found by my PC. Flashed 4.4.2 onto it and have so many problems I want to go back to 4.3
I have a safestrap backup of my 4.3. Can I restore that backup without any complications since I am now on 4.4.2?

My main problem is that when I enable/disable wifi my phone freezes for 2 to 3 minutes and it never saves my network for auto connect. I have to input my WPA password every time. I've deleted wpa_supplicant.conf in both /system/etc/wifi and /data/misc/wifi like guides have stated but I still have the issues.
Also a few of my apps stop working randomly (opens, begins to load, then closes) and I need to uninstall/reinstall in order for them to work again.
A lot of apps like Transparent Weather Clock don't save my settings and go back to default after a few minutes.
I thought this was a permission problem but I did the "fix permissions" in safestrap and the problems are still here..

Downloaded the zip, went into stock recovery and tried updating. It gave an error "error code 7" in /tmp/ I forgot the exact zip that gave an error but it showed the error twice. Phone rebooted and now it's wiped all my data and on stock 4.4.2..so it didn't update.

Hi,
I was messaging a friend on my phone when all of a sudden it shuts down. Now when it reloads after the samsung logo I box pops up saying Unfortunately, System UI has stopped. I flashed lollipop over a week ago and everything was going great until now... Any ideas anyone? I tried to flash again but MMC_write fail at start. so no go. Odin sees it. TWRP is available but I cant restore since my restore point has disappeared. I cant mount anything besides system and micro sd. Cant get int Adb sideload either.
Thank you in advance for any help anyone can offer or lead me to an answer.

I was thinking the same, however everytime I try to flash something with odin it fails. On the screen it says MMC: MMC_write fail not sure how to get around this part. Sent to samsung tech guy and he said he couldn't either. any other ideas?
Is it ok on xda to bump a thread? if not my bad. Still desperately looking for an answer on this topic.
Anyone with ideas? It's been since feb and still sitting in the corner looking all sad.... IF all else fails is there a way to brick the phone completely so that Samsung will honor my warranty? Microwave? Oven? Something?!!?
I have galaxy s4 gt i9500 and I m from india. I recently updated to lollipop and rooted by phone and installed philz recovery but later decided to unroot it using supersu unroot option. The strange thing is that i never got philz recovery but my phone was always rooted. All root apps worked fine. Anyways i decided to unroot it.
Now, after unrooting using supersu complete unroot option, i checked for updates and downloaded and ran the 326mb update available in india but the update always fails at 25% and when my phone boots normally , all apps force stop - yes all apps, i see only a black screen and errors of all apps that have forced stoped and only thing i can do is click on ok and power off or reboot my phone.
I cant boot into recovery as if i do that it goes to system update and throws an error at 25%
Please help, i have some imp data which i did not back up - phone is not detected in the pc / kies etc.
Extra info: I once did wipe cache partition and got the exact same issue when of all apps force stoppin on boot but then i went into recovery mode and did factory reset and all was fine.
Thanks - all replies appreciated.

Just download the firmware from sammobile or another source!
Download Odin v3.09
Extract (unzip) the firmware file and the odin
Turn off the phone and go into download mode by pres and hold the (Volume down key+Home key+Power key)
Run the Odin and add the firmware file in AP/PDA section
Connect the phone when you get the blue icon in com-id (Before connecting please make sure you installed the proper drivers of your phone. Recommended to install samsung kies3 it will automatically installs all the drivers)
Tick only auto reboot and F. Reset time boxes
Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
Click the start button, sit back and wait few minutes.
This will install the stock firmware and all the errors will be gone after installing.
^^ Thanks!!
Will this process wipe all data of my phone or all the data will be intact ??
Sammobile has the version 5.0.1 and I am already on 5.0.1 - will it cause any issue ??

Its better to make a backup of your data. But this process will not wipe ur data. Better you do factory reset after installing the firmware because u r experiencing errors. No issue u can still install 5.0.1
Hi I was wondering if you were able to fix your problem. I have the exactly same symptoms with my phone however I got there in a different way.
I got myself in a big problem when trying to change the SuperUS app that go installed with [GT-I9500] CF-Auto-Root method.
I was able to root my S4 i9500 following the "[GT-I9500] CF-Auto-Root" threat a few days ago and everything was good.
Then for some reason (I still want to remember what was the reason) I decided to change the superUS app with Superuser clockworkmod app (I am a noob and I deserve this I know). anyway I downloaded the other app from google play and when I opened it say it has to instal the binaries, I said ok and the phone reset and went directly to download mode I believe.
It was doing something but whatever it did it failed. So I said ok not big deal I will reset the phone and end of story. However now when I boot up the phone when it passes the samsung logo and start to load up the OS every single app fails to load, "unfortunaly xxxxx has stopped" I press ok and then it goes to the next "unfortunaly yyyyyy has stopped" and the next and the next and the OS never loads. The screen just remain black until I press power and gave me the option to power off, reset, airplane mode, etc.
IS there a way to fix o revert this. I am able to get to download mode but ODIN does not detect the phone (odin detects the phone when the phone is in normal mode tho???)
I am able to get to the stock recovery too. Can i fix this from sd card?
any guidance would be appreciated.
