[S7710] Unable to fully restore ROM, minor android fault. - Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 Questions & Answers

Hello, I flashed my S7710 ( skoomer, galaxy xcover 2 ) with CM 10.2. Everything was perfectly fine. Unfortunately, one night I had to have a fatal error during sleep as Android ( app ).
My phone was turning on and off during charging and while connected to pc. I solved it and flashed it once again. It was unstable and crashed few times so I flashed an original ( firmware ) ROM.
Unfortunately, I still got this screen (attached) after turning my phone on. ( just for 3-4 secs ) It disappeares and phone boots normally ( almost because I got small lags during booting, both sound and animation ), starting with samsung logo. Got similar f*ck-ups while getting to recovery but it's not permanent and overall I get to the destination point which is recovery menu.
I would like to know, what should I do with this. Can't find three files rom to this model. ( with pit to re parition it - don't know if it will help but still worth to try ) . I've done all wipes etc. I flashed everything with odin, except CM 10.2 witch had to be installed from recovery.
What's more, this gray-like screen changes a bit if there is another ROM. What I mean is that there are more colorful pixels in the background now that there were on CM 10.2 .

i had the exact same problem. The problem is solved by flashing via odin a stock rom with pitfile and csc file, too. Unfortunately for my device, althought i fixed that error, i lost the touchscreen response. Dont know if it's a software error or a hardware one. If you're still looking i could find it.

Problem with Touchscreen firmware

Hi.
In first case.. Sorry for my English
I have a little problem with the touchscreen on my Galaxy S.
I think it's something with firmware. Sometimes don't work about 20-30 pixels on the left and the right side.
It makes me mad, because i need move the widget from one screen to next one, and isn't working. So, i have to open SGS tools, and do TSP update (touchscreen firmwareversion). After update is Pass on the screen and everything works perfectly, BUT only for a moment (sometimes few hours, max one day).
Then i have to do everything again
Does anyone know what to do?
try to make a nandroid backup and then reflash your firmware or do an hard reset and see what happens
No, this isn't working.. I had a lot of different ROM and I did hard reset etc. (2.1, 2.2, 2.2.1)(JPU, JPY, JM1/2)
Now I have Darky ROM 7.7 and OCUV Kernel. I thing, somewhere in phone is correct firmware, because when I did update I don't have to turn on wifi or 3g. Update is working offline and then everything work..
I recently tried changing my theme, i rooted my phone, Downloaded ROM manager and Clockworkmod, when i installed it all, it bricked my phone- I unbricked it by updating the firmware with Odin, but now the touchscreen is not working - At Alll.

Problem with friends Galaxy S

Hi.
My friend got her Galaxy no more than two weeks ago, and I installed the newest Darky ROM (10.1) on her phone, since it has been working fine on my own Galaxy S.
The problem is that her phone just stopped working... just like that.
She thought the battery was drained, so she charged it, and when booting it up it would remain in the samsung logo (boot screen).
Well I put it into recovery and formatted it into factory settings and thought it would be fine. Well it kinda worked: it started up to the setup wizard, choose language, insert SIM card etc. and finally when clicked the complete button, the screen stayed black and few seconds later a message came saying that there has been an error with the android setup configuration.
This is exactly the same phone as I have and mine is working perfectly fine. Dont understand why this phone is acting up.
Will re-flashing it with the same Darky ROM fix this?? The phone has got warranty, but I dont think they'll accept it anymore cause of the custom ROM I put in.
I also have a video of this, but since they assume I'm a spammer, I cannot insert any links for now.
EDIT: Problem solved --> reflashed with Darky's ROM, now working fine. Thank you both slaphead20 & MasterJam882
you can try reflash...or darkys ressurection...or ezbase rom
Just flash an official rom from www.samfirmware.com.
If u still have bugs and errors u know it's a faulty phone and u can send it to samsung without the fear that they wont accept because its an official ROM every user gets over KIES.

[Q] darky 10.2 boot problem

Yesterday I needed to take a picture and used my Galaxy S. for it. After that I connected my phone to my laptop USB port and got an unknown device error. Assuming it was a driver problem I re-installed them keeping the same error.
I also got telephony problems before, after some minutes calling the other side couldn't hear me anymore and I needed to put the call on wait and back to continue the call.
Both problems together made me decide to update my Darky 10.1 Extreme edition to the latest 10.2 Extreme edition. I took my sd card out and copied the darky 10.2 zip to it using my laptop. Put it back in and used Astro filemanager to copy it to the internal sd. Because I can't use the usb port this was the only way.
Rebooted to recovery and flashed 10.2. After reboot the screen stayed at the boot screen with green Darky text for half an hour without doing anything. No vibrate or anything. I did read some info about 10.2 before i downloaded it but missed the lagfix point. Tried to get into recovery and luckily that worked. Turned on the lagfix, did hear the computer voice 2 or 3 times and last time it said lagfix was enabled. Rebooted to recovery again, checked lagfix was on, also for next boot, and flashed 10.2 again. Same problem, hangs at bootscreen.
Turned lagfix off again and flashed the old 10.1 again. Same problem again, this time only bootscreen with white SG text and both button lights on. Nothing for the rest. Flashed back, after lagfix enabled, to 10.2 again without luck. Again bootscreen only.
Someone knows how to fix this? Because of the usb problem I can't use Odin. I did read somewhere now there might be a cable problem or a dirty usb connector on the phone. Checked the connector visually and can't see any dirt, I also keep it closed when not using it.It does load the battery also when connected to my laptop. At least it did when I first got the unknown device error.
1) USB Error
I am not sure you have Only installed the USB driver alone or Kies it self. Anyway, try this http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315265. Scandisk with delete currupted file on your disk drive and replace with default window file. You can reinstall your driver/Kies on your laptop after scandisk complete.
2) First, you must come from JVP or JVQ base rom. JVO and older rom have older bootloader. What you need to do is to flash JVP or JVQ stock rom with bootloader into your phone. Then, flash over Darky 10.2 over the phone. Take note that Darky still have many problem and it is not that stable yet. I've run it over a week and decided to dump it. The rom is too big at 215MB where else others rom only 195MB. The startup is too slow, take 5-10min after reboot the phone. The initial start up takes nearly 15min after flash.

If your boot takes so long, you doing something wrong
First boot, yes... it takes some time. But then, the animation isn't finished yet and I'm already good to go (after media bla bla bla)
@OoZic
For darkys rom... i had the same problem.
First flash Ficetos resurection 10.2, then make shure lagfix is ON (full lagfix - check in voodoo control app) and then flash 10.2 extreme edition
For details go to

I had the problem too
Thank you for your reply from.insider
Problem is the phone can only do bootscreen and recovery. The device isn't recognized in any way. Tried it on 2 computers (laptop/PC) with different multiboots (Win7 X64 and Vista X86 on both). Maybe that is because the OS isn't loaded and can't go to MTP?
Is there a way to copy something from external SD to internal SD within recovery menu? Because that way I can copy a JVP or JVQ image to internal. Now there are only the 10.1 and 10.2 zips from Darky.
FSCK didn't find any problems btw.
Thanks again.
Problem solved, my Galaxy is unbricked and working again. Very happy now
Can't post a link because of low post count but the answer is on post-87372 on Darky.com.
The USB problem also went away, but after using Titanium to put my backup back the problem was here again. something in my settings or a service is screwing something up with the mtp I think. Used Android Booster to kill some things and it works again. As soon as I know what exactly is screwing up my mtp I will let you all know.

insane wifi dissapearence

Like everyone else i used to flash new roms to my grand prime sm-g530h so i backed up my stock rom like everybody does .
First 3-5 times i restored my stock (after flashing bugged roms ) wifi was working fine .
And then suddenly after i restored it after one of the roms wifi and hotspot werent working at all , once i open wifi it turns itself off in 1sec , hotspot button turns on and stays on without working(cant turn off , the button gets whiter and stuck ) .
The strangest thing is all the roms based on stock ( j5 , v2 or neo rom ) which i tried had same wifi and hotspot bugs (and the rom says its stable and many people of same model tested them and wifi had no bug).
After losing hope i flashed my stock via odin and wifi and hotspot worked well , i backed up my stock via twrp again and flashed another rom like i always do .
I restored it one time and wifi woked well , the second time wifi had same problem ( i was shocked ).
I flashed miui rom then flashed stock via odin but it didnt boot ( shocked again)
I dont know what is happening and whats is the cause of all this and how a stored backup could have bug happens suddenly (btw i never faced wifi bug on a cm based rom).
Please tell me the reason and how to fix this bug because its really weird and happens from months .
(English isnt my first language so sorry for bad english)

half blue half black screen after flashing a rom

hi everyone.
i am having this wierd issue for a month or so, when i try to update RR rom.
after i flash the rom, i get the screen attached. screen seems for like 2 seconds, and goes this half black / half blue screen. screen is still responsive, i can receive calls and if i double tap anywhere, screen locks. there is no problem with screen on twrp or anything ( because sometimes after flashing the rom i dont get this screen, so i don't do anything else, except use it normally.) but today it happened without a reason, the phone was in my pocket when i took it out and saw the screen in this state.
i always flash by following the steps given. i know it is not hardware related. where is the problem? what do i need to do?
p.s. : when charging, blue part goes yellow.
thank you all, waiting for a solution

First go to recovery and check that display problem present or not if not then flash any other custom rom or reflash rr
if you are unable to go to recovery then flash stock rom via odin it will fix every software related issue
and if flashing stock rom doesn't work then it may be hardware issue
You confirmed the model # in download mode? Tried using different version of TWRP?
I am facing same problem recently, did you find any solution ?
still no solution. this problem is not hardware related since i can use it perfectly now. i tried to flash (via twrp) RR-N-v5.8.5 exactly as described in op. rom boots, i can see the home screen for a brief moment but screen goes immediately black and blue. i can receive calls, lock and wake screen, that's all. then i have to restore everything. i am currently on hexagon rom v2.5 and no issues but i like RR.
again, this problem is not hw related. i follow all the steps again and again checking everything..
any ideas?

clean install worked for a day or so, until i turned off ambient dislpay and restart. then it went blue&black again.
i tried a few kernels, some bootloaders and modems (including nordic) but problem persists.
i will try to get a logcat :/
In case anyone has the same problem: reboot to safe mode, go to settings, flip cover and turn off S-View flip cover.
