[Q] my phone stopped working after changing farmework - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have replaced the framework files in the system... rebooted the phone and got many errors... can't even view anything in the phone.
Do I solve the problem by installing the bootloader and Modems XXUFNC9 by odin3?
Do I lose my files by installing this?
If this worked, would I be able to do a backup using recovery mode?
Thanks in advance

you can use your phone again after flashing stock firmware and wiping data & cache
you will lose any data
I dont recommend that you do a backup in this status because you missed the phone up
always do Nandroid backup when the phone is clean !
if you have a previous backup you can restore it

so there's no way to restore my files?!

go to recovery then do a custom backup and choose data & cache (dont select any other option) and hit start backup
then after flashing & wiping flash a custom recovery and go to custom restore and choose data & cache
and hit start restore
your phone should work with previous apps
make sure to backup in SD CARD !

Just to confirm.. this is the sequence u mean?,, please correct me if am wrong
1. back up
2- wipe data and cache
3- restore

yes like that but do a (custom backup)
not a normal or full backup !

what do you mean by a custom back up?..how to do it?

the most thing I care about is my photos and videos... is it possible to just back up those?
after this i have to install omega rom to do the rest of the work...do u recommend this step?

follow my steps
go to recovery
go to backup and restore > custom backup to /storage/sdcard1
then select everything instead of the SYSTEM then start backup
after that wipe data & cache
then flash stock firmware via Odin
then wipe data & cache
then flash a custom recovery
then go backup and restore > restore from /storgae/sdcard1 and select the folde qnd hit start
everything should be ok

"image" backup

I want to experiment with flashing different ROMs and kernels, but I would like a quick and easy way of restoring my stock 4.1.2 ROM with all my settings/apps if I need to. I tried to do this with Titanium Backup, but after flashing back to stock I had to wipe data and cache and when I reinstalled Titanium backup there was no apps/settings.
Is there any way to make an "image" of my default environment which I can then flash from recovery?
Create a backup(nandroid)
You will need a custom recovery installed, doing this will give you a complete system image and restoring it will put your phone back to the exact state it was in when you made the backup

Thanks, I have made a backup using CWM Recovery. I also selected the "create image.zip" option - I assume that I can flash that .zip and be back to the current state after playing with some ROMs?

Not sure about that option as I use quote an old recovery that doesn't have that option unfortunately, so can't help you there

Ok, I made both backups (the normal .tar and the image.zip). One more question though - the last time I flashed the stock ROM (using Odin), I had to wipe data and cache because the phone got stuck in a boot loop. If I restore from backup and have to wipe data and cache again, won't this render the whole restore useless (i.e. I will go back to default state)?

Stuck on "Starting apps." on Quarx cm-10-20130527

After a battery empty, I restarted my Defy+. But now it got stuck on "Starting apps." at the end of the boot.
I have to wipe data to make my phone ending the boot.
If I restore data which I previously backup in recovery mode, I'm still stucked with "Starting apps."
How can I debug the settings or data that avoid that? I really want to restore my data.

Are you using the new Teamwin recvoery to flash?
Ive had the same issue ( and many more besides that) for me, to fix the problem i did this:
Go back to recovery (Teamwin) and wipe everything
re-boot, go back to recovery (team win) and flash an older rom with clock work mod recovery, and let it boot.
re- start the phone and then go back to recovery ( clockwork mod) and flash the newer CM10 rom from clcokwork mod (First wipe everything /data/dalvik/cache/factory re-set)

Thanx,
Yes Teamwin delivered with cm-10-20130527.
What I done without success:
*Flash older ROM and restore more older data with CWM
*Push with adb unzipped
I should have flashed 10 to 20 times changing some steps each time. Each time I done wipe cache, dalvik and sometimes a data format and a wipe system.
I abandoned the idea to restore my data. Have to reenter all settings manually (find and enter account settings for CSip or some solooong preshared key for Vpncilla and so on).
Then what is positive: I format my data partition to ext4. I learnt a lot from very fragmented information for all those steps. I have a fresh new install.

You can use Nandroid Manager to use ur data while the phone is booted, so install it, it will find ur backup, and the u can do a restore of ur apps, with data.

"Nandroid Manager currently supports nandroid backups created by TWRP and Clockworkmod (v5.xx and v6.xx) based recoveries! ".
Very nice app then. Thank you too late. I immediately install it.

[Q] Note 3 N9005 No OS

Hi Guys,
I think I pressed advanced wipe on TWRP and it deleted my operating system.
How can I get my phone back to stock Lollipop if possible ?
Thank you
Flash stock rom via Odin or restore your Nandroid backup via TWRP .

TWRP is still there, so you can install a custom ROM from in there (if you don't have a full backup (nandroid) to use) The Advanced Wipe comes up with all options unticked - which ones did you tick? All of them? If it was only system your data is still on the Internal SD and Data sections so you may want to do a backup of at least Data to your extSDCard from TWRP before anything else.

No writing access to internal sd card after restoring backup

Dear forum members,
Im having issues with writing to my internal sd card, here the descripption of what i did:
I installed the rom Phronesis v6.2, everything was working perfectly until I realized that xposed was missing, I decided to install it by flashing the xposed-v80-sdk22-arm, unfortunately I got a boot loop so i decided to go back to my original stock rom (4.4.2) restoring a nondroid backup.
The problem is that after restoring it seems that I lost writing privileges to my internal sd card, using es file explorer shows that the storage/emulated/0 folder is empty, but it displays that is using 16 gb from 26. Using the stock “my files” the folders are displayed but I cannot copy anything to it (failed to copy). Applications in general work (some force closes) but I cannot save any settings
If I connect the phone to a pc, i cannot copy any files from the computer to the internal or external sd cards, however I can copy from the external sd to the computer.
I tried to format clear cache etc and restore again but the issue persists.
Can anyone be so kind and try to help me figure out a possible solution?
Thanks in advance

1. Go to your custom recovery and wipe all (system, data, dalvik).
2. Reboot in DOWNLOAD MODE and flash the ORIGINAL STOCK android 4.4.2 firmware via ODIN.
3. Root your device and flash via ODIN the custom recovery again.
4. Restore your nandroid backup.
5. Done. Good luck :highfive:
Hello Joku,
Thanks a lot for the reply, i fixed the issue by formatting the internal sd, wiping all (system, data, dalvik) and then restoring the nandroid backup, now all works.
Thanks again!
