Which model of S5?
Have you got a custom recovery?

Google for helium and sms backup and restore.
For pictures, copy dcim repertory from s2 to s5.
Best way is to root then use titanium backup.
Good luck

No i didn't make any back-up i didn't know it could lead to this but i opened the IMEI FOLDER and see a file mps_code.dat when i opened it shows XXV
At least it sounds like it's not wiped.. I really don't know what the possibilities are to have it fixed, maybe someone else knows.

The exact folder is /efs.
The /efs/imei/mps_code.dat is just a CSC (XXV = Vietnam)
Can you show entire structure of the folder /efs (including all sub-folder and files inside)?
And also the entire folder size?
The same problem solved

Maybe read some first?
Backup your data to sd or pc. Photos, contacts etc..
You will lose warranty.
Twrp is a good recovery
Flash supersu with twrp to gain root access. Or flash with odin.

[Galaxy A8] Private service not working A800F

I managed to try root method using SpaceX kernel yesterday, and grant a root access, but I think I messed up on something. :crying:
I tried to freeze and delete some stock apps like Google Music and anything else I think I don't need. And of course before I delete them, I made a backup using Titanium. But then I realize my Private mode is not working whenever I tried to activate it. It said "Failed to enable Private Mode, try again", it is not working no matter how many times I tried. And then I realize maybe because of those apps I uninstalled earlier, to be precise I think it is "com.sec.knox(something)". When I try to restore it, Titanium said I don't have a backup of it, but it is on my backup history just without the backup file (see attachment). If I'm not mistaken it can be found in Play Store, called Samsung Security Policy Update, but since it is originally come with Samsung device it is not downloadable.
I'm still trying to figure out what the actual cause for this problem, and if anyone could help, I'd be so grateful if you can share Titanium file for those apps come with "com.sec.knox" (see attachment). Or if I have to restore Stock Firmware and go back, where can I find it and how to restore it?
Thanks in advance,
Best regards
You need to flash stock firmware in order to fix! Bcoz of the custom kernel, maybe you lost the private mode functionality.

hmm... is it really because of the kernel? not because I messed up with the stock samsung apps?
where can I find the stock firmware?

Thanks, I got back to STOCK with the Indian latest Firmware and it works fine, the Private Mode is here again. I lost root access, but I still have all of my data (picture, apps, everything) even tho I flash back the Stock ROM. And no more Red Notification on Bootloader from SpaceX kernel. I only need to find a way to reset Knox Warranty Void value if I need (hopefully not) to bring my A8 for warranty claim. :fingers-crossed:

Oh.. No way to reset the counter? But I read somewhere it could be done with triangle away or something, could not it?

Triangle away may or maybe not work, actually its risky, if anything goes wrong, it will brick the device, it mostly works on Qualcomm Powered Samsung Device.
