[Q] EFS folder missing after restore, no WiFi, Galaxy S5 topic

I made a full nandroid backup on twrp about a week ago which included every option including EFS, when I went to (fully) restore the backup due to a faulty ROM it got stuck at 36% and wouldn't continue, I left it overnight to see if it would work and it did not, so I pulled the battery out and went to re run the restore but it has dissappeared, it wasnt on my SD card anymore and I couldn't figure out what had happened so I restored a different backup that only included data, system, and recovery, and when I booted my phone it said it was in Factory mode right away, but it didn't have the yellow text in the background, I have access to my cellular network but when I turn WiFi and then open an app that uses it, the phone instantly shuts off, I was reading online that the EFS was corrupt but the whole folder was empty, not a single file in it. I can't find anyone else who had the same problem and would greatly appreciate any help, I'm quite desperate to get this fixed

[Q] Restore to stock topic

Hello
Been waiting for the lollipop update for a while and it seems as we finally will get it (at least soon enough). But then I just realized that I can't find my stock backup. So if anyone has a stock unrooted backup with fw 3.28.709.6 and cid 621 I would be really thankful if you would share it with me :). BTW I'm s-on so can't get supercid :(. Any other suggestion is also welcome

[Q] Restore Deleted Files from Samsung Internal Memory topic

Hello,

I have deleted pictures on the internal memory of my Samsung S4. I have tried all things I found on the Internet to try to recover those files but failed. I rooted the phone and checked the USB Debugging in the developers options and still no recovery app is able to see my internal memory and try to access it to recover the files.

I tried to use the "USB Mass Storage Enabler" application to try to let the phone be seen as a USB device but it failed with the error that it was denied root access and I am not able to grant it the access.

Any help with this problem please?

Regards,

[Q] Restore data wiped during flash? topic

(Galaxy SIII currently running CM 10.2.1)

I'm very very new to flashing ROMs. I tried switching to CM 10.2.1 from stock yesterday, and I thought I had backed up with the TWRP recovery page, but I think I have wiped it during the process. I have none of my my sms, call log, or contacts, and none are in my Gmail.

I do however have a .twrps file. Is there anything at all that I can do to at least restore my contacts? I've tried a few of the solutions posted here but I hadn't used an app for backup and the adb directions are really vague, although I'm continuing to work on it.

Any and all help would be much appreciated! Thanks.

[Q] Soft bricked? Need to restore back to stock topic

Hey yall,

Neighbor's kid handed me his Sprint galaxy s3 today and asked if I could fix it. It's not working at all right now. I'd like to think I know a thing or two about technology but I know jack about Android...I use the other brand of phones. Anyway, lots of searches led me here to ask for help.

Far as I can tell it's a Spring LPH-710 Samsung Galaxy S3. When I turn it on it has the firmware upgrade encountered an issue screen and it doesn't do anything else. I can't get VOLUP+HOME+POWER to work (recovery mode I think) but download mode works with VOLDOWN+HOME+POWER.

I went and downloaded the Kies program from samsung but it fails to load the software. here's the error message; CAN'T POST LINKS! arrrgggg. It says "Failed to upgrade firmware due to an unexpected error. Do you want to run firmware emergency recovery now?" It then says I should enter some recovery code from another PC which I don't have.

It also has some small red text on the phone screen after I saw the Kies error message. It says SW REV CHECK FAIL : Fused 2 > Binary 1. That makes no sense to me but it's red and Kies error out so I'm going to assume that's not good.

I don't have a recovery key to use and the kid tells me he never backed it up to a computer before. I've read Odin is the preferred method to use for stock recovery but I don't know what files to download and use. Apparently, people are pretty unhappy with Kies...kinda like iTunes I guess. Why can't the Kies software wipe and reload the phone? Am I doing something wrong?

[Q] Whoops...messed up and need to restore ROM... topic

Hi there -

I recently bought a D851 LG G3 from someone who told me they had rooted and unlocked it using PurpleDrake, but otherwise had left it as stock. I like the phone quite well overall, but the oversharpening on text was really bugging me. I noticed that there's a thread with a fix for that (here) and figured I'd try it out.

First, I installed TWRP using the TWRP Manager app from the Play Store. Second, I rebooted into TWRP and installed the .zip file for the Sharpening Mod. All seemed to go okay -- I got to the part of the Mod asking me for sharpening level, and it finished successfully -- but when I rebooted the phone, it's stuck in a loop where it shows the LG logo for a few seconds, then reboots. Being the bonehead that I am, I forgot to backup the existing ROM before I did this. :(

So that leaves me with two questions:

1. How do I get the phone functional again? I was happy enough with the previous ROM and am not necessarily looking for a custom ROM, but if there's one that's very stable and that people recommend, I'm open to that. I'm hoping to get Lollipop on the phone once LG releases it, so I'd like to avoid doing anything that will interfere with that.

2. Did I do something wrong when trying to install the Sharpening Mod? I'd really like to get that issue fixed...without screwing up the phone in the process. :p

Thanks!

[Q] How to restore K9 settings out of adb backup topic

Hi all,

recently I changed from my HTC One X stock to Cyanogenmod (up to now I really like it more and more).

Before the change I did a full Backup using abd (the resulting .ab is about 20GB).
While setting up my apps I want to restore the settings of K9...
But how??? :confused:

What I have done up to now is to "unzip" the .ab file using android-backup-extractor.
I also could find some dir's:
/apps/com.fsck.k9
/apps/com.fabefour.MailListWidgetK9
/shared/0/com.fsck.k9

I also found a kind of tutorial (but it's quite old and it didn't work :( ) : (sorry no Link, I'm not allowed to link outside)
It would be realy great if anyone could help me.

kind regards DaZeller

[Q] Xiaomi Mi2s - No cell signal after IMEI restore. topic

Hi.
I have a Xiaomi Mi2S that doesn't connect to any cell networks.
I'm using CyanogenMod 11 nightlies, and after an update the phone lost its IMEI number. I had taken a backup of the NVRAM using EFS Professional, but when I looked for it the files where 0 bytes in length :( (probably a hard disk problem on my computer)
After trying a lot of stuff (installing stock MIUI, putting the phone in diag mode and installing a bunch of drivers), I managed to restore the IMEI number, but the phone still can't connect to the network.
I have tried a SIM from another company and it doesn't work. And my SIM works correctly in other phones, so I think that is not a SIM problem.

I don't know what to do... I tried flashing different ROMS, tried flashing a new baseband radio, but I can't get it to work! Is the phone lost???

Can anyone help me? I would appreciate it very much!!!!
