Completely Reset Samsung Tab A 9.7" (SM-T350)

I was messing around with trying to root my tablet and I seem to have gotten in a state I have not been able to figure out how to recover from. Starting the device now just opens the recovery screen with the message (at the bottom of the screen): "E: failed to mount /system (Invalid argument)" Factory reset doesn't work and I have tried using odin to flash the stock recovery for my device listed at http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/root-samsung-galaxy-tab-9-7-sm-t550-t3126827

I have been trying to find the stock firmware from other sites, but I have been unable to find a download link that isn't throttled (as in it takes less than 9 hours to download). I will try one of those site tonight, but I thought I would try asking about it here first. Let me know if I need to provide any other information.

I have tried using smart switch/KIES from here to no avail.
As state above I have tried using odin to flash the "stock" file listed here (but I am not use if that is the right file I need to flash).
I don't case about any of the files on the device because it is pretty much brand new.

I just want to reset it completely to a working version of Android. Let me know if I need to include more information.

Help! constant reboots and very fast battery drain even when completely stock

I just washed my watch with tap water to clean it up. but after i dried it up, the watch keeps rebooting every few minutes and becomes quite warm.
I even restored it back to lollipop but same thing happens. also uninstalled all 3rd party apps from my phone.
did washing it cause the problem? i read here somewhere that they even dive their watch on a swimming pool with no problems.
please help me troubleshoot this. I won't be able to send this to a service center since I work in a remote location. :crying::crying:

How to completely pair a Samsung Galaxy Gear 1 to LG G stylo?

I recently purchased a Samsung Gear 1 from a private seller and was told that I can use it with my LG G Stylo 2. I downloaded what seemed to be a million different things to my phone and all that's working on it is the clock synced with the phone and I can make and receive calls. I would ideally like to use all the functions of the watch rather than having an expensive touch watch just for the time. Can anyone help me figure this out. P.S. I'm not to tech savvy so if you could dumb it down a bit for me that would be great. Lol.

Is it completely bricked? What should I do?

So I bought this Huawei Mate 8 and to be honest I really loved it, it's the best phone atm imo. And it's pretty expensive in my currency. I've owned the phone for a couple of months now, 4 months I'd say. And just 12 hours ago, problems started.

It all started when I attempted to use the fingerprint scanner and my phone randomly restarted. Huh, I ignored it. But it happened again when I tried to open settings. It'd crash randomly on random actions. But it almost always crashed when I tried to open settings or use scanner. I removed my SD card and then it worked fine for a couple of hours, then it restarted again.

And sometimes it restarted many times over to the point where I'd think it's boot looping. But it'd eventually start. I reset the phone hoping it'd fix the problem if it's software related. But it always restarted right before I could enter my Google account to start the phone. But it reached it's eventual death. It crashed again but it didn't restart this time. I tried connecting it to its charger, but no response and no heat at all, not even in the charger's adapter. And my laptop didn't detect it at all.

What should I do now? This phone is new and expensive. I'm very careful with my devices and it's in a perfect condition. The only incident with it was when my selfie stick got too tight on the power button for like 10 seconds then I took it out. That was the same day the issue happened, so I'm not sure if it's just a coincidence. Anyways please tell me what I should do right now, and yes, the phone is still in warranty but I doubt they'd change it for me, their customer service is **** where I live.

HTC 510 Desire Completely bricked.

I really need help reinstalling a stock ROM on my phone or doing something. So here's the information that I'm working off. On my fast boot menu it say's ****Tampered**** ****RELOCKED**** ****Security Warning**** The radio is 1.101.1372.19.1121 and the phone is with Rogers Canada. What happened was I used TWRP. I wiped data, cache, internal storage, dalik cache, and system. I was trying to flash CM 12.1 I did all the steps wrong. Then I relocked my phone to try using the RUU provided by cricket. That one said Customer Id error. Then I tried a few other ones. But no luck at all. I can't seem to have any luck flashing a stock ROM on my phone. I literally need my phone for when I go to Florida. Does anyone have any suggestions? I can provide more information if needed.

Note 4 temporarily freezing completely when connect/disconnect from WI

Hey gang,

This has been going on a few months for me now, and can be pretty frustrating. Compounded by the fact that wi-fi in my own apt is occasionally shoddy with any device, (frequent disconnect/reconnect issue) sometimes it can be downright maddening. Thank god I have a dope case, because I have launched this ****er multiple times now as a result of the issue. Two factory resets have not solved the problem.

Every time my phone connects to or disconnects from any wi-fi source the phone freezes up completely and is unresponsive for anywhere from 5-20 seconds, pretty much immediately after the wi-fi toast message pops up (although occasionally the phone will freeze b4 toast message pops up). After it regains consciousness, the device will "catch up" with whatever inputs were made while it was frozen.

For example: Keyboard open, typing comment on reddit. Wi-fi toast message appears, phone becomes unresponsive. While unresponsive, if I tap 5, g, h, q, back button (touch key), home button (touch key); after becoming responsive again phone will swiftly type "5ghq," close keyboard (go back), then go home (home button) along with the associated haptic feedback responses occurring.

This also seems to be occuring occasionally when I receive text messages. Sometimes but not always. Though, if it happens with one txt received, I can safely assume it will continue to occur until after I restart or (maybe) put phone down for a while.

Restarting or not using phone for a while, however, has no effect on wifi issue. Wifi issue is occuring every single time, no matter what.

Its a minor inconvenience but can be quite irritating

Anyone else experiencing this or able to help? Thx.

Completely wiped my phone, can't get stock ROM unto it...

I wiped the internal storage on my phone by mistake and now my phone has no OS or ROM to flash it back on. I tried to sideload with TWRP but the feature wouldn't start. I flashed the stock recovery and tried to sideload it there but I get an "error: protocol fault (no status)"... I tried to mount storage on TWRP but that feature didn't seem to work on it either. It's a good thing that I still have my OnePlus One to use, but I would appreciate your help!!

Completely bricked Xperia C5 Ultra (E5533)

Hello All,

I've got big issue with E5533 device. As I was told device had just turned off suddenly some time ago. I've read something about "sudden death" of Xperia smartphones - after that I've tried to use the 'yellow' reset switch I've found nearby SIM card slot - this does not really help at all. I've tried to power up the phone, it was connected to charger over 12h - after that the icon of low battery still show up, the icon of battery and 'flash' as well. After double-click of power button device showed 'Sony' and 'xperia' logo and after that the black screen appears.
What's more interesting after connecting device to PC - it's available you can see the folders etc, etc.
After that I used Sony Pc Companion and used 'repair' option - same situation - logo and black screen...
I used Flashtool, downloaded the latest 5.1 version of firmware, at first received some issues with BOOT to load - searched on forum and set minimum 128 value of speed.
Firmware flashed successfully - happy to see the results I've started the device using power button - and guess what - logo and black screen again... :(

I've noticed that phone is starting up after few secs in low light - but seems to reboot after the phase of updating android apps it goes from 0 to 190 and then the screen goes black again... then shows some error I'm unable to read.

Have you got any E5533 stock firmware maybe lower that 5.1 for me to try flash it?

OR have you got an idea what can I do next with this device?

I used this firmware: E5533_29.1.B.0.87_1301-8214_R1A
