Hello all , Cople of days ago i decided to try a custom rom as the stock one got too boring.
Any way i`ve installed CM7 used it for cople of days , then last night i got kinda bored with it and decided to try another one (axura i belive)
as usual i used rom manger , pressed the back up option , the device rebooted into recovery , but when he started to do the backup i got the msg "cant mount system".
and iam stuck since then , cant restore to an older backup (cant mount system) , cant flash new rom (status 7 error) , i`ve also tryed to install new karnel (netchary) , didnt help either.
when i try to reboot , i stuck on the logo...
please help me guys , i despered
sorry if its not the right place for this.
help please i cant use my phone guys !
thanks.
have you tried to do a clear data/factory reset in recovery?
also clear cache and dalvik, then try to reflash the rom.
Im sure this has occured many times before to others. You should just look through the forums a bit
did all that allready , nothing helped , also couldnt find any thing like that in the forum , well there was a cople but with other devices...

well you can always go for the last resort and use odin to reflash your device as if you just had received it.
Look up odin in the forums or on the samsung website. Just make sure you choose the right nexus s model or you might brick your phone like someone else did on xda...
can you give me more details on how to use it ?
i dont really understand what does it mean download mode , and how i flash some thing using odin...a guid could be very helpful.
Hey! I think my device has been bricked. I was playing on it and after it just frozen down... rebooted and stuck at the PhoeniX Rom's boot animation. I've flashed a bunch firmwares and other stuffs too but nothing.... I think i found the problem but i dont know how to solve it :/ and this is why i decided to post a thread here for the awesome experienced developers I've seen my whole EFS folder has been deleted and I dont have a backup for EFS ): and when i am trying to refresh one of my roms I got a error message saying:
- Error mounting /efs!
I've tried different recoveries and everything but no luck :/
I dont know how to restore the efs or something :/ PLEASE HELP ME thanks

Hello guys, need some true help here. I wanted to install sdmerge cause was tired of the tiny memory but after flashing SDMERGE 1 and 2 and tried to mount the ROM in CWR it said that both SDCARD and EMMC couldn't be mounted and now the device is stuck in a forever LG logo mode. I tried installign the original firmware with kdz, but the program crashes as soon as I hit the "Lunch software update" button. I don't know what to do and I'm pretty desperate!
EDIT: Running it on Win xp and KDZ seems to work, but now it says phone not found, geez <<.

Same problem here.
Fixing IMEI After Downgrading to 4.3 from 4.4.2
I need to know how to install my original or a working IMEI onto my AT&T Note 3 SM-N900A any info is helpful thanks hopefully someone knows the answer and can reply fast.
Same here.. is this method is works with sm-n900a at&t?????? after updating to NCUC2 4.4.2 my efs folder get damaged.. now unknown baseband and also IMEI is null/null
Please help me out
explanations
call out of the explanations and some easier. Thank you.
I've always found the easiest way to backup/restore EFS is via TWRP. Just select backup then just tick EFS. That particular backup will then contain only your EFS partition which you can restore at any point, even if your phone doesn't boot. As long as you can get into your recovery you're good to go.

Hello,
the backup system does not work!
finally falsh via odin pass, but reboot as the freeze remains on the samsung logo.
instead of bin \ adb shell su -c "-s -l make_ext4fs /sdcard/temp2/system.img.ext4 2304M / system"
* I've used it "dd"

hey guys,
im new here and my english is no the best, but i try to explain my problem.
i tried to flash the cyanogenmod 12 on my n-9005 and first i thought it works fine. but then i saw there was no emei and baseband anymore. so flashed 4.4.2 again and tried some things and, i dont know exactly why, everything was fine. so i made a efs backup with the terminal emulator (dd /.......) and got a file named efs.img (14mb). then i tried to flash cyanogenmod 12 one more time and again there was imei 0/0 and no baseband. so i made the recovery with the efs.img , but it didnt work. again i flashed it back to 4.4.2, but still the same problem. now its the third day without sleeping and i dont know what to do. can someone help me?

knox trip?
Hi guys!
Sorry if the question has already been asked but couldn't find the answer, so please bear with me ... My question is: does the backup procedure (and later restore) as described in the thread trip knox and voids your warranty?
Thanks in advance!
Hello everyone. I hope you could help me with flashing Lollipop on my Galaxy Note 3. I haven't received it OTA so I am planning to download the official rom and flash it using Odin. I have used Odin in the past to flash roms and from my own experience I know that every time I flashed - the phone also got factory reset and I lost all the data and the apps already installed. I would like to flash without factory resetting my phone. also, I don't want to root my phone. Please help. Thank you.

Odin WILL overwrite the phone. Without Root you can't do a nandroid (full phone backup) and about your only option is to get something like ES File Explorer and try to copy out all your media files, docs etc.
All the best ways to save stuff require root access.
You could also try SMS Backup & Restore and Call Logs Backup & Restore to save those out to your extSD. Also you can export your Contacts to extSD and import them back once the flashing is done.

There are things you can do if you search for IMEI lost or similar words. But simplest is probably to DL the Stock version for your phone & use Odin to flash it. That will lose all your data and apps etc on the intSD so you might want to look for other ways first.
I'm guess here but I think maybe you have a problem trying to downgrade your modem/bootloader. CM12 is (if I remember right) v5.0.x of Android, and since Kitkat there have been issues going BACK to previous versions. I think maybe you upgraded your BL to the LP version then it failed when you tried to go back to KK version.
You do not say which 4.4.2 you flashed but you could look for a v5 of that ROM and try that first.

have you solved it yet? I met this problem but dont know how to handle it.
can you give me a hint?
Please please please guys !! I really need your help with my tablet lenovo a3000 !!
my tablet stuck at the logo screen !! I can access the recovery menu I tried factory reset and wipe data 5 times and it didn't help at all !!
my 2 pcs can't recognize my tablet '' the MTK thing won't appear in device manager " already downloaded the drivers on my both pscs with no luck the tablet only charges !!
I notice in the recovery menu I can install zip file there !! so I figured out the only way to install the stock rom is to flash it via recovery menu since my pcs won't recognize the tablet !! I just need the stock rom in a zip file flashable via recovery menu !! anyone can provide me the file it would be really really appreciated please guys it's really urgent !!
It seems that we all have the same problem with this A3000 H device but is seems that people in this forum don't want to help each other. Why is that? We just all need a proper .zip file with a backup that is flashable or restorable from Sd card and job done but where to find such files? I tried to find in some russian forums but they're also not flashable, I almost tried every file that is suitable for flashing through the recovery these files are not just simple .img but must be made as an official Ota updates by its structure with all the meta files and etc. And I bet If we find the proper files we could be able to restore our devices but I started to think that there many people that just do not want old devices to be restored! ): I personaly have such an ota update file but it's only 6mb and when flashing it the process stopped at the half ot it and I know why because we are already rooted and these files are only for the original rom. Mine is 14027 and probably pc stops recognizing the tablet from USB when we all flash it with that rom. So if you have a custom rom installed you have already made my mistake too, but I'll do everything to restore it somehow because the device should work properly and it is working properly I just have to manage to get through this boot loop stuff, I' m sure mine is still working but I' m affraid I did not make a backup so now I'm stuck as well! The only option for us is to flash it through the recovery but with the files I have stored at once there' s an error with the Contacts.app at the half way of flashing. Do I need to delete that app and try again? I can upload the file I have somewhere but it was an update from the OTA and didn't remember which rom was it for . It must have been... 1309 or 11, but not exactly sure and it's only 6 mbs but we could probably use it for something. I think the only option for us is becoming developers. :laugh: Why don't you give us any backups from your personal roms so we could restore our devices?
Does this tablet stopped working for us all, I hope not so we could start helping each other again?
I am a smart guy and know exactly the reason why our old devices stopped working because of the google play apps and updates that are not suitable for us anymore like messenger, facebook lite and etc. It' s not our fault guys! :laugh:
I'm not gonna buy a new tab because someone is telling me to do that I will try restore mine own Lenovo A 3000 H somehow with a little help of course!
