Hello,
I know there are a lot of topics about the "Kernel is not seandroid enforcing". But my I9505 shows that message, but is stuck at that screen. It only vibrates randomly when turned on.
Today i rooted my device, then i installed CWM, and then i tried to install a new ROM (Google rom). One of those ones must have caused it.
When i try to start recovery mode or download mode, it works 1 in a 100 times. I've tried to wipe all data but nothing helps...
Does anyone know what to do now?
I found a solution to make it work again! I just tried a 100 times to open the download mode. Once i had it i installed this stock rom using Odin:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2250824
That worked for me!
In advance, I normally try to fix problems myself thus I dont post much, so I'm sorry if this is in the wrong area. I have already spent about three hours researching and trying to figure this out.
I've gotten sick of the loads of Verizon bloatware slowing down my phone, so I finally pulled the trigger to try safestrap. I'm using the ME7 build so that was the only option.
Safestrap installed without a problem. I flashed Hyperdrive successfully, but the ME7 modules available here would fail to flash even after I checked the MD5. I flashed from another source here successfully.
After all of this, when I boot the phone into that module, it will go to a black screen after the "safestrap enabled" logo. After about a minute, the phone will vibrate, show the Samsung logo, and then go into ODIN download mode.
The only thing I can do now is hold the volume down during start up. This loads a warning about how installing a custom OS will catch your phone on fire with a continue option (which results in the ODIN block), or a Cancel option (that restarts the phone and shows the safestrap logo before going to the black screen etc.) From this I can change the boot default to the stock OS if I choose, but I still cant use Hyperdrive. I have already tried deleting the ROM slot and starting over, but that didnt help.
Thank you so much for the help!
Edit: I tried bonestock and just got a black screen.
Edit 2: I also tried google edition and it would go to a black screen, restart, and loop again.
[Q] Flashed kernel, get "seandroid enforcing", now nandroid not working, please help
I tried flashing arter97 kernel for Galaxy Note 3 on my International N9005 running N9005XXUGBOA5 Echoe Rom v.23 which I understand uses the AEL kernel. I'm now getting "KERNEL IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING, Set warranty bit: kernel" message and it doesn't boot, just stuck on N9005 screen. Read the kernel OP a few times and searched the thread but can't find a solution, did I miss something?
Then tried to restore my nandroid backup but it gets stuck on the Samsung logo, tried the N3 AEL Kernel v1 but get the SEANDROID message and no boot again, can someone please point me in the right direction as it's been a while since I've done this?
Well, this is the weirdest but simple fix to this bizarre problem, after nearly a full day struggling to get the phone to boot, even flashing a stock ROM with Odin I found an obscure post on a thread here on XDA which fixed it. The trick was to boot into download mode and then on the screen that shows 'up volume' to continue and 'down volume' to cancel, press 'down volume' to cancel and then the phone booted, that's it! How utterly odd!
I just got this galazy not 3 not even a year ago. I had a lot f stuff on my phone that i didnt want so i did a factory reset or whatever to reset the entire phone lik new, and now it just pops up Samasung and at the top left says:
"recovery rebooting....
recovery is not seandroid enforcing
set warranty bit: recovery"
and then will turn off and right back on doing the same thing ove and over again until i take the
battery out and place it back. Ive tried holding the power+home+volume down at once and tried the volume down (restart), and that didnt do nothing, and i tried doing the power+home+volume down at once and tried the volume up (download) setting as well and it just sits on the downlaod screen. Help pleeaaseee i dont know what elese i can do.
My S7 edge had been acting weirdly for a few weeks, things like random restarts once a few days so I didn't pay much attention and over excessively heating up to 50/55 degrees (I usually checked the temperature through CPU_Z), and just a few hours ago I ran into problems like the phone restarting on its own, never getting past the samsung logo on boot, so I did the normal thing everyone else would do and just factory reset the device through recovery mode, a point to add here the device took an absolute age to load into recovery mode, this wasn't a case of bad key combination or anything like that, the device would load this the dmverity tree hash verification thing and sit there for a good 2-3 mins which is unusual, same thing happens with factory reset takes an absolute age and comes back with the following text-:
"E: format_volume: make ext4 failed on /dev/block/platform/155a0000.ufs/by-name/USERDATA with 1(I/O error)
-- Set Factory Reset done...
Data wipe failed."
booting up the device in this state would show up with an error "Device storage corrupt" with a " reset device" button in the bottom of the screen which didn't respond to any touches which was weird as well because holding the power button and then selecting the power off option worked with no issues so it wasn't an issue with the touchscreen.
searching for a solution on google led me to flash a official firmware that I downloaded from updato, just a heads up my device has never been tampered with or had any kind of software modifications this includes flashing any roms or even official firmwares before, so I download the firmware and flashed it as usual this is the firmware that I flashed through odin 3.12.3 firmware version was G935FOJV1DQAV also my device model is SM-G935FD while the firmware I flashed was for SM-G935F but this shouldn't be an issue because when I usually got updates over the air on the device they would be for SM-G935F so if there were any issues with this they should have popped up a long time ago, so everything went smoothly and the phone booted up again as usual, did the initial setup and adding accounts, recovery everything, hooked up the charger and left the phone to download all the necessary stuff through samsung and google cloud recovery, comeback after a few minutes to find that the device just wouldn't respond to the power button or the home button to wake the device up but the led on the phone was flashing in blue color which means I did receive some notifications, so I hard reset the phone by holding down power+volume down key, same issues pop up like before the firmware I flashed getting stuck on the boot samsung logo, went back to recovery to do another factory reset again it keeps freezing on the dm-verity tree hash thing, but this time the factory reset happens properly with no errors, but the device doesn't boot up at all, gets stuck on the samsung logo and the led on top starts flashing in several different colors, just like when you boot up a brand new S7 edge.
As a last ditch effort I try initializing the device through smart switch, everything goes normally but when the flashing process starts it gets stuck on 7% indefinitely, tried everything else but to no avail, tried flashing through odin again but it gets stuck on the same point as smart switch, tried installing the firmware in parts through odin again gets stuck on the same point when flashing AP but other parts get installed without any problems, download mode boots up fine, recovery mode now boots up very slowly with a dm-verity error "E:failed to mount / system (invalid argument).
I have 1 month warranty left on my S7 edge from where I purchased it, I want to send it back for a refund or a replacement but the only thing thats kind of worrying me is that in download mode the knox switch hasn't been tripped still shows 0 (0*000), but shows system status as custom, will this effect my warranty claim if they check my device?
