Stuck on samsung logo bootanimation

Red lines? IDK, i only see the normal recovery and say E: Failed to mount /efs (Invalid argument) no more.

You will see this in the stock samsung recovery?
Then you have a problem on your efs partition which will cause the bootloop.

Formatting the efs partition would fix the bootloop but then you will loose your imei number and this will break mobile networks.

The only thing you can try is to fix a possible filesystem error on the efs partition or give the device to a service station which can restore the efs partition.


To try if you can fix it you can do the following steps:

1. flash this kernel with odin https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120702299
2. boot into recovery connect the device to your pc and use the mass storage mode to copy this 2 files to the sdcard
Nightowl-cm12.1-20160215-n7000-kernel_only.zip
https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=16862

recovery-twrp3.1.0-build2-isorec-n7000.zip
https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=23751

3. disable the mass storage mode in the recovery and disconnect the device
4. use the recovery to install Nightowl-cm12.1-20160215-n7000-kernel_only.zip
5. use the recovery to install recovery-twrp3.1.0-build2-isorec-n7000.zip

6. reboot the recovery (you should now see a team win recovery if everything worked well)
7. go to advanced-Terminal and enter the following to backup the current efs partition content to your external sdcard:
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p1 of=/sdcard1/efs.img
after this you can try to fix a filesystem error on the efs partition with the following:
Code:
e2fsck -fpv /dev/block/mmcblk0p1

if it could fix errors you can try to install your stock rom again with odin.

If this steps will also not work then you need to give it to a service station (or format the efs partition and use the device as a wifi only device without any telephony support)

Hello

Hello.
Maybe someone knows the solution to my problem?
The phone with android 4.0.4 works properly, after uploading NightOwl CM12.1 stable Roms for GT-N7000 I do not have sound in the speaker.
After connecting the headphones, the sound is, someone has met with such a situation?

Lollipop 5.1.1 Apps downloading issue

Hi,

I have a Samsung device (Android Lollipop 5.1.1) For last few days I am unable to download few apps such as launcher apps, keyboard apps and some gaming apps from play store. Can anyone tell what's this issue. Is this a device-related problem or my Google ID's problem.

Thanks for any help in advance :)

To root you have to use the su addon from this page
https://download.lineageos.org/extras
Be sure to choose the right Android version. Last time I was flashing the 15.1 on 14.1. fortunately I stopped just in time.

About stock Google apps, minimal are "Pico" version.

cant u make it.. on ur own development...terms...
this would be the best rom...if it could be build..
sames specificatons.. but hten problem is different processors..:(:confused:


This is literally just lineageOS with the dev's modification for compatibility. If your device doesn't have any dev support, no one is gonna build it.

The dev here is probably retired already.

Thanks @bauner and etc. Revived my gt-n7000. With polish gingerbread it had been fast and smooth but cannot view youtube or install app or system upgrade now. Performed Zergrush root, su dd and adb to backed up some partions including efs, modem. First use Odin to flash JellyBean stock rom, now it has chinese, delay in spen, play store could crash, then PhilzCMW6 stock kernal with custom recovery. Copied cm12Beta kernel, cm12, gapp pico zips to internal sd. Boot to philz cmw touch recovery, flash kernel with recovery update. boot to recovery, factory reset to wipe off data, format system partition. flash rom, then gapp. Reboot, see nightowl icon, wait, see 90 apps optimized ... Now can install apps. Performance wise not as current generations. But build quality of this device is superb despite battery swelled. Triple the price, much longer life, good for the environment. tap settings->about phone->build numer 7 times, back developer option->enable root access app and adb.
