u8800pro also have BCM4329 wifi solution instead of qualcomm libra one
I have one. I tryed to flash it with official rom and I bricked it. It was my fault. Now I can't recover it. Any suggestions? In every mode it vibrates and nothing happens. Purple screen doesn't work, recovery mode doesn't work, flashing mode doesn't work.

I can access to the pink screen, but i don't have the image folder... can somebody help me?? i have a big problem if i cant fix it.. it reboots every 80 seconds with the unfinished root image file.. if someone can give me the original one for 2.3.5 pleeeeaaaseee send i to [email protected] i really need it, im having a hard time trying to fix it.. help..!
You need different ROMs compared to u8800, as some people discovered (rather painfully). So far, there are 4 ROM options. Stock ROM options include the stock 2.2, the stock 2.3 (no problems as with the 2.3 for the u8800), however they both suck performance wise.
Then there's a MIUI port which I couldn't even get to install on my device and finally comes cyanogenmod which is the best option so far and the one I'd recommend (you will see a tremendous difference in the performance of the UI).
I am a total noob with this rom/kernel flashing stuff but I managed to get timur's kernel installed yet am still getting only usb charging via my Y cable.
Do I need that usb rom too, or does timurs alone offer fast charging somehow? Or is that rom already part of what I installed, with timurs?
I dont see the slew of new menu options I came across a pic of (with usb rom).
Looked all over the web, but no answer. Sorry I am so confused and unclear.
My kernel version says:
3.1.10-gba06546-dirty
Timur-USB-host [email protected]#24
I am using the timur's version for 4.2.2 android.
Thanks for any help, really want to speed this charging up!

because i want to know too!
Hi every body, i'm new on the forum so i don't really know where to put my topic so excuse me if i'm at the wrong place.
Here is my problem, i had a galaxy s2 i9100G and i used to put cyanogen on it and come back on android then cyanogen so i know a bit about flashing, root, rom stock, custom etc
Now i bought a galaxy s4 I9505 and when i decided to put cyanogen on it i used cf root for titanium backup and all the stuff, so my phone was rooted, but i noticed that on the start on the up left corner was written in red "kernel is not seandroid enforcing" and in yellow "set warranty bit: kernel ". I thought it was nothing so i continued, i wanted to test the new cyanogen mod installer so every thing worked fine and i had cyanogen. (Im sorry it's long but i prefer to explain everything from the begining).
Then when i wanted to return to android stock rom but when i start the flash with odin, 10 secondes after i click start, odin stops and don't respond, then i need to close it so the flash dont work. I searched every thing i could on internet about the knox system and every body seems to say that i can re flash a rom without problem, but i can't, i found on a forum that if i use triangle away then i can flash a rom but triangle away don't work it turn off my phone then nothing.
Please does any boby have an idea ?
Thank you in advance!
I Have I9505 with CM11
try to change the pc or the USB Cable
Also, make sure you are using one of your USB 2.0 ports when flashing.
I have an USB 3.0 on my laptop and whenever i tried to flash with the phone connected to that port, Odin would froze.
You need the right firmware for your bootloader. If you flash an older firmware than your last stock firmware was, it fails because you can not downgrade the bootloader. And triangle away doesn't work anyway on knox bootloaders. Means: if you now have knox on your phone and it's 0x1, what i think it is, there's no chance to reset it to 0x0. But you can flash the latest available firmware for your country, or, if you want, a custom ROM.

I tried on my new laptop (by the way it's also a samsung) who have a USB 3.0 port with the original USB cable, i also tried on my computer with a USB 2.0 and an old USB cable and i think also the new one. but i will try again and focus on that on that point . thank you

Thank you for your detailed answer. When i flashed cyanogen 11 i was on the last official firmware, and it's that firmware that i tried to flash via odin so i don't understand. Do i need to flash a different kernel or something like that? also for triangle away, it put a message on the start of the app that i need a official kernel (samsung) else it will bootloop or soft-brick. With cyanogen, wich kernel it is ? (i've seen on internet that CM11 works with triangle away.)
And what custom rom could advise me ? With the custom roms can have the air gesture and the stuff like that? Or do i need to be on an official firmware ?
Thank you again for your help.

CM 11 is under testing. Why u don't install the CM 10 stable version: HERE?. I dont understand the people asking for solutions that have problems in ROMs that are full of bugs. What did u expect in "nightly" custom roms?
My post wasn't about cm11 rom problems it was about flashing the stock rom, not because the cyanogen one is "full of bugs" wich is not really true. So do you have an idea for my real question?
Wich custom rom would you recommand me ? Is there anyone who have the air gesture and mouvement functions?

- About your first sentence in wikipedia: CyanogenMod tries to build a new, fresh "nightly" version every 24 hours for each of the devices it supports, which includes the most up-to-date changes to the source code, provided from all over the Internet. Of course, the nightly builds may also contain newly-introduced bugs, but hey- if you feel adventurous, you can help make CyanogenMod better by trying these experimental builds and reporting back bugs to the developers.
- Second sentence: Learn how use Triangle Away (more info: HERE) and flash again Stock ROM.
I know that nightly versions have some bugs but what i was trying to say is that they are not as much as you seems to say, and i like this rom and it worth one or two little bugs, any way you didn't answer my last question about custom roms, do you know some great one ?
For the video on triangle away i already searched for informations about it and it doesn't work, when i open triangle away uder current status there are the counter the binary and the device for him in the video but i have one the more : "System : modified" is it a problem ?
And also when i go si my status in the phone informations (in french) "Etat SELinux" is "Application" what does it mean ?
and is the kernel of cyanogen a stock (samsung) kernel like they say on the app ?
Any custom rom is great. Try it out for yourself which one suits you.

Okay then
And for my problem i finally found a solution using odin mobile
Hi Guys,
People outside China usually Get there Devices from 3rd party sellers who often uses temperd roms. Again reflashing with mi flash dosent work ever cuz persist(sensors drivers) portion is opted out from miflash. I came with a solution to flash persist without unlocked bootloader. ( unlocking is still e heck of a wirk and isn't safe too)
Follow my tutorial here http://en.miui.com/thread-502566-1-1.html
and thank if you find it helpful in anyway.
This will keep yoyr warranty safe and will work 100% if sensors are dead or can't find by cpuz or hardware test.
Those who are troubled by malfunction of sensors can give a shot with best mi rom (which was good with sensors) persist. img extracted and reflashing by this method
Thanks, it could be handy.
I need to try this, i have custom rom and custom kernel i have to install an official Rom Miui?
I revived my Leeco Pro 3 US LEX727 after a long time.
The USB port became problematic, it doesn't connect to the computer all the time. I wanted to try a few custom ROMs. The phone still runs very well. But the issue is, with the custom roms I have tried so far (LOS and AICP) the charging speed is painfully slow, like 1% increase in an hour. I went back to stock, and looks like the stock Chinese ROM also have this charging issue.
Only thing that works for charging is the US stock ROM. I am not sure if it is due to my buggy USB port, or everyone have this issue.
Does anybody know a good custom ROM than may work well with the US LEX727? Or, any other way yo solve this issue?
Thanks.
