here is a commented version, btw. it is for bash syntax, other shells may have different command (especially the "let") i=0 # set i to the first number wanted # in case you already have some x<number> directories e.g. after Ctrl-C # you need a...

knpk13 please post output of ls -l ./Test1/data/files/home/sm64-port-android/SDL/include/SDL2/ I want to see if it's a symbolic link. It will be tricky, if these are real directories and they are deeper than the longest possible path name.

As a user I think, this should work. Some gapps may be older afterwards (from the date the ROM was released), but they get updated again. For gapps data is usually not a big problem, if the data of a google app is damaged, you can usually clear it's data, log in again and wait for sync. That are...

I already posted a link where I found the downoads: https://osdn.net/projects/corvusos/storage/x2/ gapps seem to be included, so if you don't want them, you're either lost or find a tool to uninstall them (if this is possible at all, but may be someone already found a way...). I would update...

I couldn't restore a lot of my ~300 user apps, e.g. Zoom, Youtube, Advanced Root Checker, GMail. All these apps are restoring for ever (hanging while restoring). A lot others worked without any problem. The main solution was to disable "Verify over USB" in developer settings. I restored most of...

I found it on: https://osdn.net/projects/corvusos/storage/x2/ not sure how I got there...I think via the main web site and then choosing x2 somewhere

FAQ: while installing gapps because of this YES I get a message that gapps already exists, so I conclude: Corvus indeed comes with gapps, so shouldn't the answer be "NO"? btw. when installing additional gapps, I don't get a problem with play store, at least I could install Titanium Backup...

you could simply cast your smartphone screen, e.g. using a mirror app or a plain camera app. May be there are also apps that can cast their camera image directly

so you need the partition layout of your device? I just had a look, you can indeed only read the partition layout or any low level data from the disk if you have enough permissions. The storage devices are all restricted to the owner alone (no rights for group or other), and the owner is root...

as described in the text you quoted, there are three ways to execute the tool: 1. the zip file via recovery similar to an update file 2. via adb (see example session) 3. via terminal The recovery is already running in root mode. adb or terminal need root. That's why you find the line "adb root"...

> It's been working since yesterday... if you also stressed it, then it shouldn't be a general temperature problem (like cpu cooling) > oven (bettery removed)& heated for 5-10min temperature? solder needs higher temperatures than all the plastics. So either they only put the motherboard into...

how long does it work? how did you get the idea to put the device into the freezer? Naturally, immediately "cooling" comes to mind, right? Boot up is stressful, heating the device. You may help the device with cooling it down before. You don't stress the device afterwards, so it keeps cool. So...

so, when did the problem start? very strange... but will not be an emmc brick. I assume another kind of hardware failure. I think it's not software, because rebooting several times without changing anything (!!! really? !!!) with different behaviour should exclude this. But it's not exactly...

what do mean by "no result"? The test runs and does not stop? Then it's not an emmc bug. with an emmc bug the test will freeze. a note4 will not have an emmc brick like a note1. there are many reasons why a device can freeze, let's say 99.9% of them are software. A very small part may be...

from looking at these gps apps, I think satellites are detected and cosidered for calculation, but because they are at values near zero for location and strength they are dropped. This process continues all the time.

GPS satellites small values On AndroiTS GPS Trst and similar the satellite positions are all zero on my N910F. I then found https://github.com/barbeau/gpstest/wiki (play store: GPSTest, by barbeauDev) which shows very small values instead. The values are with exponents around E-45, so they...

I flashed only v3 fix and the gps conf files from the zip posted recently (for gps problem). Now I can hear incoming voices. Didn't test more, will do later... GPS still doesn't work. There seem to be satellites detected (counting up and down), but in apps like GPS Test or GPS Essentials (I...

thanks for the clear answer I notice, that you mentioned fix version 3. Is this by purpose? I ask because I used version 4, no clue where it came from, the developing thread also mentions v3. I think, I'll give it a try

I'm on N910F, too (in Germany). So, to be sure, you can call in and out and voice works in both directions? On my installation voice only works from outside to phone but not in the other direction. Could be a speaker issue, but speaker works in other apps and the speaker icon in phone app...

unfortunately no... a patched PIT is only useful if you can flash it via Odin. if you have access via adb or recovery, you might repartition by command line tools (see forest et. al.) However, the failure flashing the PIT might point to a more severely damaged partition table. You would need...

the first I do with a phone is installing a custom recovery, so I never see a stock recovery. From my memory, I think there's only an option to install a file called update.zip but you probably cannot install arbitray zip file names. So you might rename the file to update.zip. It think I also...

recently I got several questions according bricks of newer phones. Please note that the emmc brick bug should be triggered only by a combination of a few conditions: - an old samsung kernel (from ics) - wiping or formatting by custom software, usually an old cwm of that time - most important...

so, if the first pit is identical to the one flashed last, the problem probably isn't a damaged/misconfigured pit. I would assume - either the emmc brick (if you really have one) extended to some crucial area (like where the pit is stored or something) - or you have an unrelated prob with...

and the last that could be flashed?

sorry, I cannot follow xda very often nowadays, so this may be a little late... ok, like you already said, this looks like your KERNEL partition is damaged (the one after PARAM). I can generate a package with more partitions for your device. I currently have these i9100* devices in my...

you should probably try a custom recovery first, to be able to scan to determine the brick area efs is only affected if you move starting at a partition below or equal to efs. Luckily efs is one of the first small partitions. So most bricks are somewhere after efs. you need an efs backup and...

first: from your description, when writing something to your phone's flash memory the phone doesn't lock up or become very slow. So I think this isn't an emmc erase brick. Instead: It's just a theory looking at your description of the problem. I think your flash memory is now permanently...

I'm currently on vacation, so please be patient. From a quick glance I would say the PIT seems to be ok, only the "Unknown" entries look a bit weird, but may be this is normal. Perhaps someone else can post his heimdall PIT print log to compare both? I probably don't have access to my N7000 for...

so, you didn't answer my question: did you ever use a Samsung ICS kernel? And additionally: did you use an old CWM recovery with, that is one from the times before the emmc problem was known to the community? The emmc brick is only triggered by this software combination when using wipe...

oh, wow, I never heard of such a situation. You first mentioned Heimdall and now Odin, so you really used Odin now? I have mixed experiences with Heimdall, so I would recommend Odin. Are you sure Odin works generally? you could eventually have driver problems. There may be other reasons for a...

ok...sorry So, perhaps you should sleep some hours, because you need full concentration for this kind of procedures... :) Generally, if you cannot use a recovery, you should try some pits with higher gap sizes to get your phone up and running (you may use one of the highest first to see if the...

should be obvious, if you really read the first post...or think a little bit about how a pit file could be applied, right?

(note I usually don't read the thread any more, because I have a note3 now) 41 MB means starting the gap at the KERNEL partition beginning at 37MB. This should work well, but the pit is in experimental because: - I don't have any feedback if this works well and which problems may appear - you...

Nice to hear, you have solved the problem. Indeed, using Aparted explains the behaviour (would have been helpful, if you had mentioned this). Btw., how did you copy "some" files? I don't see such an option in Aparted (from the images in play store, I cannot start it on my phone). From a tool...

I hope I understand you correctly (I'm german), so I'll try to summarize: You have a SGN2 and used cm10.2 before. Now you have tried to "upgrade" to some other ROM (Samsung?) of Android 4.4.2. You didn't tell how you installed the new CWM, from where you got it and which version it is. So...

emmc brick should be triggered by ics kernels only

this thread only applies to some samsung devices

correct. (If it's an emmc brick, you can still use a guess first to bring a recovery to live and then scan) Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

you are crying very loud... so it's probably not emmc bricked (in our sense -> damaged hardware). Don't know mt6575 (seems to be a chipset number used for s3?). Don't know SPFlash. if download mode works, your way should be Odin. You probably need a firmware which includes all partitions...

if you don't know this yourself, you are probably not familiar enough with the method -> read much more. It should be clear from the thread starter. The whole thing is not about flashing a pit and being happy afterwards. Instead the real work begins after the pit.

it's caused by tablet mode. Temasek's settings extensions don't work with this mode since the beginning. Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

looks like userdata cannot be mounted. This is normal, if you couldn't format it. Did you try in recovery? or adb shell and some mkfs command?

usually not the kind of brick discussed here, search xda (or Google) for kind of (probably) soft bricks

why the gap cannot start at arbitrary positions if you read this thread carefully, you will find that I won't create more pits for the supported devices, because all possible are already there (well, with a granularity of 256MB). The size of the gap is in steps of 256MB which should be small...

if you cannot scan, your only chance is to use trial and error method. If the recovery cannot be flashed via odin, the brick is also in this partition (kernel/recovery). So choose a pit which skips this. If you are unlucky, you have damaged even lower partitions, then it gets very dirty...

thanks for telling this. temasek: my phone runs on 320 dpi in build.prop, app settings for Settings/com.android.settings only changes screen dp to 800x1280 or 1000x1600 which behave equally. So it seems to be irrelevant, how we get into tablet mode.

settings extensions don't work in tablet mode temasek: first of all, I want to thank you for your efforts to port and tweak cm11 for the note3. I really appreciate the result. It's a really nice usable ROM... Also it's far better than cyanogenmod's approach and they didn't update since...

first, flash a pit with "kernel" in it's name, because your kernel partition seems to be damaged, too. Use one with a high number after "moved-by" first, e.g start with moved-by-8192 which is half of your 16gb memory. Then try to flash a kernel+recovery combo. If that doesn't flash, try higher...

being a cyanogenmod fan I cannot say anything about this rom. But usually custom roms don't change partitions, otherwise they would explicitly tell you, because it's critical for your data. So don't worry (but make backups anyway when trying new roms etc.).

in short: no unless you flash a pit (or use a partition editor) the partition will be kept. In theory an update zip could also change partitioning, but I never saw such a package.
