s5830L
 

hi i received 2 s5830l for repair, but now different problems arise

1.- came dead, no power, fix it ok, but after 1 day of use, restarts, freezes, no imei.
when i repaired i flashed first S5830LUBKP7_S5830LUBKP7_S5830LUUBKP7_HOME.tar erased boot in advance and then easy repair, after repair no flash only hard reset. now im trying with spt to write imei, cause phone starts ok.(i screwed tdo trace and dont now where else already scratched it a little but error 30) so spt hopefully.

i thought maybe just one time, However, this is by no means an isolated case.

2.- power ok but imei 000000, (not no imei) but the same problem, frezees as well no menu, repaired ok, flashed S5830LUBKP7_S5830LUBKP7_S5830LUUBKP7_HOME.tar, but after one day, now phone restarts white screen, goes to download ok, (no hard reset) flashed ok according to odin but phone remain the same, so ill have to fix again, any advice?????
thank you very much indeed

Try with another firmware, but it's unlikely a software problem.
Restarts with white screen might be wrong connection between CPU and Flash.

thanks
 

i was checking in other tool forum and the suggestion is that, efs is corrupted, so i'll need to have a full backup dump to write it to it, after a full erase, and after repair its original imei to finish it, but im looking for a 5830L full backup not 5830 only, if not i'll try to get a working phone from a friend to make the dump, so lets see.

Generally damaged efs sets wont work at all after flashing, will blink instantly.
Yet yours worked one day, please post results after having wrote working dump.

Please try to do the next:
1. Connect the phone in Advanced Mode and make Erase Full flash.
2. Connect the phone in EasyRepair Mode and make Repair again.
3. Reflash the phone using Octopus Samsung software with the firmware from the support area.
4. Post here all full logs with all of your actions.

If this will not help, please try to do the next:

1. Connect the phone in Advanced Mode and make Erase Full flash.
2. Connect the phone in EasyRepair Mode and make Repair it as GT-S5830 (not as GT-S5830l).
3. Reflash the phone using Octopus Samsung software with the firmware from the support area for GT-S5830.

hi
 

sorry for answering untill now, but the cutomer was angry and took the phone, but i still have the one with the tdo trace problem, so is there or does anyone knows if there is any other point where i can conect the tdo line. cause after a firmware upgrade the phone freezes on samsung now, (not as before with older version turning on ok, but no imei), so maybe i can still fix it with another tdo in pcb.
thank you

again
 

tired customer brought back the phone, (with all the traces)
repaired ok advance mode erase boot and erase full flash with version 1.4.3
after, flashed with odin official comcel colombia 2.3.6 and phone only logo
so i decided to repair again with medusa from start, and after i flashed with spt, version 2.3.4 phone ok, gave it to customer, took it home and called me after 2 hours, when he turned the wifi on, the phone freezed and started heating a little bit, now phone gives only battery logo, so i will repeat again but is there a way to copy a good working phone and to download that flash, so maybe i can fix it properly?
or do you have a full 5830l backup flash?

Please perform all steps I have written above and post here full software log with all of your actions.

here solution
