Ohh, where to start. Ok so first off let me apologize in advance if this has already
been posted but I’m a noob when it comes top posting in the forums. Been using
them for years to fix my problems just new to posting. Anyway, a few nights ago I
tried to flash the newest version of the T-Mobile AOKP rom (Kit Kat 4.2.2) onto my
AT&T I337 Samsung Galaxy S4 via the latest version of TWRP recovery. After
attempting to flash AOKP, TWRP failed the flash and had an error message that said
something about the phone not being able to flash a T-Mobile rom on an AT&T
phone. I then tried to flash the AOKP rom again and mistakenly flashed the Loki
kernel instead. I was currently running Cyanogenmod 11. After the Loki kernel
attempted to flash, it once again said failed and gave me a message that said
something about me losing root and asking if I wanted to reinstall superuser. I
agreed to reinstall superuser and used the option to reboot my phone once it was
complete. But….once the phone attempted to reboot my screen went black and all
my phone would do is vibrate every two to three seconds with a blank screen. I
pulled the battery, tried to put it in recovery mode, and download mode but nothing
worked at all. It wouldn’t charge, no battery icon, no LED. After messing with it for a
few hours and randomly pushing buttons I finally got it to go into download mode. I
was so happy. I decided I would flash (Odin) a stock firmware that I had already had
and used plenty of times. But…after flashing Odin would say complete and pass but
when my phone would reboot it done the same thing as before. Black screen and
vibrates every two to three seconds wont charge, no battery icon, no LED, still won’t
go into recovery mode but will still go into download mode. I’ve used every version
of Odin, used different USB ports, different USB cords, reflashed the stock at least
20 times now and still nothing. What have I done and how could I fix this issue. :crying:
Ohhh and before I forget, It may be worth mentioning that when I finally got it in
download mode I noticed it said that I had the stock Samsung firmware, where it
usually says custom when rooted.
I'm assuming you're on MDL firmware. If so Odin flash the stock firmware. You can get it at sammobile.com
You're probably hosed though, sounds like you've tried all this.
Doesn't work

First observation: nothing here says that he fixed it. If he did, which may not have happened, then he obviously didn't tell us.
I wonder if you really have the same issue. Did you read through the OP? Did your phone get where it is by doing the exact same sequence that he did? If not, and you want someone to help, you will need to give a detailed description of everything that led up to the issue you have, from the time the phone was operating normally. It would also be helpful to know what your phone was running before this happened.

My friend bought a new LG G2 and wanted a custom rom. He tried to flash a custom recovery tool through fastboot but did not unlocked the bootloader. After this the phone booted up in recovery and showed a couple of error messages. He reflashed all of the partitions of the phone and restarted it, put the official firmware but to his surprise his touchscreen was a mess, everything he clicked on was offset by 50 to 200 pixels, and its all scrambled up. He tried flashing custom roms, official roms but is the same, even in TWRP the same problem with the LCD panel. Now the phone has SlimKat and I could activate the feedback of the touches, it's incredible, I can't understand it.
Can someone tell me where the driver for the touch is, or what to repair in order the have the screen control back. I have uploaded some images of the touches feedback.
He tried to use LG official tool or flash the kdz file?

Yep, he and I flashed I bunch of times the official rom but nothing changed. I think it has something to do with the boot are aboot partition, there is where the kernel is booted up and there is our problem, but I need someone more good at the low level arhitecture to guide me through. I repeat the same problem hapens when you go in to recovery.

I will test this tomorrow, I will get a OTG cable to connect a mouse, it's a nightmare treeing to navigate like this. This code will run on every ROM, or only on official rom... I will come with feedback on this, thanks for all your support...
I know that work on stock for sure, I don't know on AOSP
I forgot to tell you that the final part of code "802" is your G2 model
Es. If have a 801 model the code is 3845#*801#

I noticed a nother problem, the radio of the device is off and cant connect to the network, in conclusion when I try the code the phone gives a message to turn off the airplane mode. I will try to reinstall the official ROM.

Ignore that, Ive gotten it confused with another phone, G2 only has motion calibration in main settings, I just checked mine.

Question regarding model
Ok, I found something very weird, at this point I really dont know if the phone is a g2 D802 or D800. I've taken the back cover of the phone and found that on the back is a d800, the back cover of the phone states that is a d802, but when I check the imei using a website imei info it says its a d800. The D800 is for AT&T and the D802 is the international one, what is going on here...I am confused...
I smell something fishy as well. Perhaps the phone has been opened before and the rear cover was replaced. Make sure you are usuing the D800 firmware and modem baseband firmware.
Flash both of those and see what happens!
I got a realy strange problem with my D802, this came up out of the blue.
About 2 weeks ago I suddenly lost all network functions, for a few hours, then it came back again. Later I had only 2G and realy bad phone reception. The other morning everything was fine until a few hours later I was offline again. It was just then it came to me to check my imei and it was gone
At the time I was on stock 30B with one of Dorimanx' kernels. I was using this combo for a few days already so neither rom or kernel caused this.
Since this problem occurred I've been busy with this, searching the net, flashing all kinds of KDZ's, Kernels, Roms and what else but to no evail.
I did backup my original EFS partition but restoring doesn't help. been trying to put my imei back with QPST and EFS professional but NOPE!!
Rightnow the issue has changed slightly, when I (re)boot my Device I got no imei but after a while, can be a few minutes or maybe an hour the imei comes back.
I'm out of ideas, hope any of you guys can help :fingers-crossed:. Rightnow my G2 is nothing more then a really small tablet with phone functionality when it feels like it. And I feel like turning it in to a frisbee
I put a logcat from boot there ---> http://pastebin.com/kdR13DaR
Current setup stock 30B, stock Kernel, no Xposed
Thanks in advance
Edit: added last_kms log.
Have you tried flashing a modem? Maybe it could help

Yeah tried that also. No luck
Besides: A KDZ comes with the proper modem doesn't it?
Is there a particular piece of hardware that could be damaged or could it be the main board?
All the other stuff is working fine on my phone

That was not exactly what I had in mind. Last_kmsg is the dmesg from before the latest restart. I hope that there might be a telling message during boot, so you need to restart again and capture a current dmesg. You can do that on a command line by typing
dmesg >/sdcard/msg.txt

Yes, the new file is the one I sought. Unfortunately, it didn't tell me what's wrong with your phone. Maybe someone else is more clever...
If you haven't already done so, I suggest you try another sim-card.

As a matter of fact its not even asking for a sim or giving the "missing sim"notification when it's out.
AbdulrahmanAmir said:
your boot Logs seems okaay refers to the software but the Hardware part of SIM mainly the logical board may leaks or got some electrical hiccups sometimes the OEM get fail in inventing logical board that comes with no IMEI show or even it works but not everytime flash a KDZ and dont root head for your warranty center and they'll change the LOGICAL BOARD you may backup your data before you go

Sorry for this awfully late reply mate ?
I got caught up searching for a decent chinese phone to replace this G2, but no winners there Hehe.
I lost my warrantee already because of a screen replacement. So I scored a G2 with broken screen (plus original charger ?) for a few euros to try to swap the motherboard coming weekend ?
I haven't tried to do any customization like rooting, flashing ROMs on my sisters phone because it was too tricky, hell, even installing drivers is a mess.
I tried to install drivers from this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2370906 and solve the bootloop issue by using the steps from this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2376667. I have the Stock ROM of Canvas 2 Colors downloaded but apparently, detecting the phone is the big issue.
What I tried was turning the phone off, removed the battery and plugged in my Laptop[Win 10], what I noticed was that it was getting detected in "Other Devices" as "MT65xx Preloader" and that detection goes away in a matter of seconds. Help me.

Ohh, sorry, I should have deleted this thread, the problem was, I should be looking in the parent directory for installing the drivers, and it just worked fine. The phone is working now, but the new thing is, it isn't supporting "Clash of Clans" now in the Play Store. It used to work previously.

It should but don't forget to backup your present rom (through a custom recovery) before installing a new one. It saves a lot of time in case something new doesn't work.
Wiko also has an updated custom kernel which improves performance and battery. But that can be done later on.

Hi all. I have a G900I that has been rooted and has TWRP. I tried flashing it with AICP 7.1.2 using TWRP after copying the rom to the root of the phone (sdcard doesn't work). It appeared to flash fine and then rebooted. No it gets to show AICP changing colours across the screen. Now the only way to turn it off is remove the battery. I can boot into recovery or download mode fine. Booting into recovery isn't much use because I can't access the file system. What I need is a tar.md5 rom so I can flash it with Odin. Any ideas where I might get one? I have tried Sammobile but for some reason when I try to download it asks me to log in but when I log in and go to firmware it logs me out.........sounds like a standard Samsung boot loop.
This is what I've used ever since my S3 Mini days: http://live.samsung-updates.com/index.php?device=SM-G900I
Download may be slow but it definitely works without any registrations

Thanks for your replies but samobile started working. I got the ROM and about to try it. Will let you know how it goes.
Looks like I am back up and running. Thanks guys. Now time to try and stuff it again.
Can you suggest a decent simple ROM. I don't want a whole lot of fancy crap, just something that allows me to make phone calls, take pictures and play games.

Try Resurrection Remix 5.8.4 (the second latest build). Currently lineageOS has some CPU scaling issues which will waste battery needlessly.
I'm currently using LineageOS 13 (previously called CM13) mainly for better battery life and stability.
I have been trying to install Lineage 14 and it keeps getting to about 90% and just sits there. I will try the resurrection one soon.
Also what is the crDroid one like?
I will give the resurrection one a go. I have been trying the Lineage 14 one and it keeps getting to about 90% and just sits there.
You can wait a bit and flash MagmaROM once a stable version for the G900F comes out.

G900I and G900F have the same SoC, but only the NFC chip is different. If you flash a G900F ROM/kernel on a G900I, you only lose NFC.
Well I have got the resurrection ROM on but now Smartswitch says it is not compatible. I can't get all my contacts back.
I have tried 3 different ROMs and I still can't connect with Smartswitch to get my contacts and messages back. Any ideas? Is there another way to get them?
Also Windows 10 has started recognising the phone. This never happened before.

Pretty sure smart switch is only for official firmware, as with other Samsung software. I usually only backup my contacts on Google, but for messages, I'm not too sure (since there really isn't a solid backup tool that I trust).
I got most of them back from an old phone so not many lost. Only problem now is I can't seem to place the contacts widget on the screen. It keeps disappearing.
