How to Reset Samsung Foucs

Folks,
I got a new Samsung focus (Re 1.3) yesterday , followed a tutorial from youtube to install custom rom. Everything went good , like installing MAGLDR and later reset and installing ROM. After installing ROM, the guy told that teh SAMSUNG logo appears for a long time and we have to poweroff by removing the battery. I did the same but nothing was working on my mobile. It starts booting shows samsung screen and stucks at the following screenshot, i tried to connect it to laptop as it showed in screenshot,but even hours dint helped anything. Now i can only see the download mode , not even the format mode. I searched how to reset to factory setting, but nothing was found useful. I found two posts one with instructions and files are corrupted, one post with files but no instructions. please help me with this.
​Thanks,
WY.

Flash a stock rom from here (UCJK2 for Focus revision 1.3 / UCJK3 for 1.4).
Here's a flash tutorial.

Thank you very much for your help.. but some reason my mobile was not detected in the loader..everything was green but Start button is disabled and the mobile was not shown in the ports section.
Some how i am able to start it in format mode cancel and it went to magldr cmd..installed everything and this time works perfect.
Appreciate your help but i still dint get why start button was disable.

To "green" the port in the flasher, unplug the USB from your comp, wait about 2-3 seconds and plug it back. Just before flashing (after all are loaded).

As EnderPsp said u should always start the downloader first and then connect the phone in download mode.

i tried either way.. first attempt i connected mobile after loading the files as said in tutorial.. but start button was disabled and the mobile is not shown in ports section of the flasher..but it was shown clearly in system bar that mobile is connected and even safe remove was showing the mobile name. sorry to ask so many questions, its just in case it will be very useful for others in future.. thank you very much for your valuable replies.

Sony Xperia E4 Root Access for all firmwares

ROOT FOR SONY XPERIA E4 ALL FIRMWARES (DUAL AND SINGLE)​
In this tutorial I am going to show you how to get ROOT access for your XperiaE4 device.
******Me or the developers of the Rooting applications/programs are not responsible for the damage that your phone might have after the process.
Prerequisites
1.A computer that is running Windows.
2.Internet connection.
3.Half an hour.
Let`s begin!​
So there are two methods of rooting your E4 depending on the firmware that you currently use.
To find out which version of firmware you have you need to go to Settings>About Phone, and scroll down until you see which build number you have so you could follow the instructions.
First! 24.0.A.3.8/24.0.B.3.8
Witch this version is more simple to root.
1.Go to Settings>Security and tick Unknown Sources so you could install applications from other sources then Google Play store.
2.Go to this link: https://sites.google.com/site/androidxdacom/file/kingroot_4.1.0.703.apk?attredirects=0
3.Download the application and install it.
**You might get a screen saying that the application is a malware, tick the box and select install anyway.**
4.After you install the application, just let the app do it`s thing.
5.Reboot the device.
Second! 24.0.A.5.14/24.0.B.5.14
Here... Is a bit harder.
1.Download this program to your Computer. http://mmgr.myapp.com/myapp/Kingroot/webapp_kingroot/image/KingRootSetup_105002.exe
***Works only on WINDOWS***
2.Now, install KingRoot to your PC.
3.Go to your phone, Settings>Developer Options and activate USB Debugging
4.Connect the phone to the PC while KingRoot is running on your PC.
5.Wait until the device is recognized
6.Press the ROOT button and wait until the process is done.
That`s it. Those are the most simple methods to root your Xperia E4.

Why does my root go away when I delete the KingUser app? I'm using the latest FW.

you must change the kinguser with something else..and then delete it...
check here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6IgvVRt3ak

not correct,doesnt work on newest firmware(25.0.A.2.31)

Easer way
Even if you have the latest firmware E2003_25.0.A.2.31 you can root your phone in 3 minutes even without the PC.
All you need is new KingRoot.apk and .... device AFTER factory reset. Because I'm new - I can not post a link, sorry.
But it's really easy to find it
Just install it as a normal apk.
Tested on my E2003 with E2003_25.0.A.2.31_1294-3054_R2A.ftf firmware.
Of course it's for E4G phone.

Hi man,
at first I want to thank you, this helped me to unbrick my phone, but ofcourse I did deleted my IMEI, SN and so on.
I know there are few ways how to change it, but none seems to work for me so far. I have the right drivers (v 1.1.13), but not any program is able to connect to my phone except to SP flash tool.
So my question is. Is there any way how to root this version of andriod?
I have already tried Kingroot, RomasteruSU, framaroot and not even MTK Engineering mode was not able to help me change IMEI.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
tried to do exactly what is there, but still no luck. I had only APDB before, so I hoped to be successfull this time with MD1_DB.
But what happened. I already had drives and SN writer (2.1504), but downloaded older version (1.1728) anyway. Got into point where phone was connected and in meta mode. The newer version of SN Writer gave me error message pretty fast and calceled meta mode. See SN writers error message img. below.
I have also tried older version, it took bit more time, then it asked me to fill my IMEI for a second time, but ended up with error message again after that. The only thing different was that phone stayed in meta mode. Put second print screen error as well.
Any suggestions?

After oreo screen flashes white and minimised, battery errors

I am on stock 8.0 after the update during a call the phone buzzed and made a loud sound like a siren. After the crash I used it and got message of abnormal restart. I decided to hard reset it. The phone buzzed for about 30 seconds at least and then booted giving me an error uDove to send to HTC. I sent the error and updated all apps to set up.
1. Since then whenever I wake up the phone with the fingerprint or open an app the current window goes white and gets minimised as an app would do. Or as if a pop up goes on and gets closed by an adblock (in desktop).
2. I noticed also lags in performance and battery drain.
All my apps are basic and from play store (major publishers and no games at all) With HTC support I used the phone in Safe mode and no problems where observed. I thought it was htc sense update that was causing the issues however it is not the case. I am lost and do not know what to do. The phone is annoying to use and 4 hard and soft resets did not improve anything.
I ran every check with the HTC utility and nothing significant was reported (all passed ok), During the following hardresets the bootloader gives error

Looks like partitions map is damaged (hard to read the photo). My educated guess is that you either get a RUU from HTC and let the phone recover everything fresh or unlock boot loader and install custom ROM.
Can you use superuser rights via adb in the HTC recovery mode?

Could you please tell me what is RUU and how to obtain it? My phone model is this one https://photos.app.goo.gl/tgzt2ebSj1fdt5o29
I can read if I know what I am looking for thank you. HTC has not been very helpful online

HTC is sadly ignoring/abandon the U Ultra. Pity.
NVM
RUU is ROM Update Utility - it is an HTC format for update packages. Sadly, Oreo hasn't been made available by HTC.
Since (presuming) you are still under warranty (no unlocked bootloader etc.) I advise to hit the HTC service center and tell them that their OTA went wrong.
Alternatively I could only think of unlocking the bootloader and doing the fix yourself.

Whitch CID do You have? Is it single sim or dual?

I as an update the phone is getting worse the more I use it. I screen blacks out for few seconds and then back to normal. Something like voltage issues. If anyone knows the UK repair service I would appreciate the details. They are not responding e-mails and chat is not helpful at all.
It is bought with UK plug so I assume it is the ones in UK?

So. You have nothing to lose. Try to copy OTA to SD card. Clear Cache and Apply update from SD Card. Maybe it Will help...

Edit:
Or downgrade to Nougat, then try with OTA again.

Hello everyone, after buying a new device (huawei) and after 4 visits to the repair center my phone seems to be replaced with another one. unfortunately the battery was changed and it is worse than ever (after a hard reset it says it was last fully charged 223days ago.
I solved the problem by doing a hard reset and not updating the google app. My last reported version (installed by HTC) is 7.17.28.21.arm64 (my device is HTC U ULTRA but same problem). After this everything else runs smoothly etc.
I believe it relates to new features of the app that change completely how it manages the device
• Use voice commands while navigating – even when your device has no connection. Try saying "cancel my navigation" "what's my ETA?" or "what's my next turn?"
• Weak connection? If your search fails, the Google app will deliver you results once you regain connection.
• Troubleshoot connectivity issues with more helpful error cards when your search fails because your device is offline
• New customization options available for cards in your feed

Help with this alps 825X_Pro device

OK, I just received this device:
{

}
which is sold under various names from vendors @AliExpress.
I'm trying to match this unit with one of the threads here and it seems like no one is dealing with it, but I may have missed some relevant posts, can you please help me with that? Or maybe you know about other forums where they discuss the unit...
The device has several issues (bottom line: do not buy it, the hardware is okish but the software is horrible) and I'd really like to explore ways to customize it but I'm not even able to connect to it via adb, let alone become root or install a custom firmware...

Seem like no one heard of it. Bad luck.
I'm trying to gain root access and fix some of the bull***, but I'm running short of options.
What I know so far:
Invoking "su" from the command line (or via adb) returns a "not allowed" message;
I have no firmware to patch with magisk;
the amazing temp root does not work, the device is patched.
What else could I try?
I may try the MTK Droid Tools, but I think they use the same exploit used by the amazing temp root so I guess this is not a solution. Moreover they need Windows and I can't connect to the unit with adb in windows, only with Linux (heavens know why, the Universal ADB Drivers says it's all "ok" but adb does not see the device).

Did you get anywhere with it? I just got 825x_pro for my R56 Mini.

Nowhere. There seem to be some info in the 4pda.ru forum (in russian) but I did not dig deep into into.

Hi,
You have to go to:
- The settings
- "Car infotaiment" and click in the high right corner on the "cogwheel" and you get a little window where you have to type the numbers (example: 5678; 8888, ....etc ) And you get the hidden menu !

Yup this was my experience of "Fake Device Software" Could it mean it is fake? I downloaded another and found the device advertising it's self as Android 10 but with an API level of 28 which relates to Android 9 or wear devices so ???
