Flash Samsung S9
Shawna Erholm
@teeheee: Which phone do you have? For clarity, do you want the LED to flash when a timer has completed, or do you want it to flash with each second that goes by? If its the latter then, typically, the LED indicator is at its most effective when the screen is switched off, acting as a visual notification reminder. I'm not sure how it would factor in to the timer countdown with the screen turned on though, as the countdown itself is all the visual cue that you need.
@teeheee: The developers say that flash can worsen the image quality and, in addition, repeated LED flashing can be annoying for some users. That's why, for now, the Camera app only supports a timer with sound. Apologies for any disappointment this may cause you.
Some users favor the inherent stability and simplicity offered by the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) software. If you find yourself wanting to revert back to the stock Samsung firmware, the process is remarkably straightforward. All you need at your disposal is your Galaxy device, a PC, a reliable USB cable, the relevant stock ROM, and, of course, the Odin flash tool.
In the age of the Fourth Industrial Revolution fueled by artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things and 5G expansion, the added capacity will play a major role in helping to address mid- to long-term demands for NAND flash memory. As digital lifestyles become more prevalent, Samsung will continue to be proactive in making new investments in order to seize future market opportunities.
Leveraging its significant edge in manufacturing and technology, Samsung has held the leadership position in NAND flash memory for the past 18 years, with one recent innovation being the industry-first sixth-generation (1xx-layer) V-NAND introduced last July. Through balanced investment across its global sites, Samsung aims to maintain a robust production network that will further cement its market leadership.
Getting the Stock Image.
I went to and searched for my device type, then got image for my region:
NZ android Q version
Downloaded (allow about 8 hours for slow download) sfirmware and samfw are faster
Optional: Get TWRP image here
Reboot the phone into download mode. Power off, then press and hold Volume down + Bixby (single button below volume down) + Power button until download confirmation screent appears. Press Volume Up button to confirm. Connect phone to PC with USB cable.
Preferably connect to a USB2 port. (I found that when connected via USB3, I got USB bulk transfer errors; switching to USB2 let it work)
Reboot into recovery (I assume you installed TWRP for the recovery
(Press Volume Up + Bixby + Power). If bootloop is happening, you may have to try multiple times, but you should be able to get there.
I found another interesting page The Complete Guide to Flashing Factory Images on Android Using Fastboot
While not directly applicable (because it talks about fastboot), it does have good explanations of what all the different partitions are for, and gives some examples of how you might only need to flash one partition. E.g.
You may just be re-flashing the stock firmware to recover from a soft brick. If this is the case, the system image is often the only image you need to flash in order to fix everything, because it contains the entirety of Android.
I recently purchased a Samsung Smart TV. I want to watch Big Sky Conference Basketball games using the link to web sites on the TV. I am able to access the "Watch Big Sky" web site and get all the way along the system to the correct game and the screen to watch it. When the game comes on and I try to get it up on the screen, I get a screen message that says I need Adobe Flash Player to watch the game itself.
I work for city government and we have an issue viewing our city meetings through a government portal that needs flash to play on our digital signage smart TV's. and for the same reason, our own government content cannot be played in our city hall. ( we have a digital signage workaround in place but it is going to cost alot for the players and licensing).
I understand this issue is because of the browser that comes with Samsung smart TV's, but isn't it possible to build a player enabled app for smart TV's? Adobe is pretty crafty and I am sure you have a couple good programmers who could lead the charge on this! (and quite possibly corner the smart TV browser market!)
There is no alternative, as there is no Flash Player for Samsung or any other TV. Flash Player is only available for desktop systems (Tech specs Adobe Flash Player ) If you want to view Flash content on your TV, the option is to connect your computer to your TV (via HDMI cable) and view it that way.
You don't need adobe flash for the samsung... go to the apps and activate the app you want to view such as hbogo. You will get a pin but you have to enter the hbogo activation website through your computer while you have the tv pin on the screen, once activated in this manner you will be able to view the shows without adobe flash player
I think the OP is trying to watch a feed through a website in the samsung smart TV browser. for embedded video, you need adobe flash player (or other player, like quicktime) to view the videos but the browser that currently comes with the TV cannot support flash because it is a computer program and not something that can be installed into the browser APP like an extension on a computer...
Flashing a phone will update your phone to a different operating system version, and it is one of the ways to fix many system issues like a Samsung black screen with a broken system, a bricked Android phone, massive application crashes, etc.
Why do we need to flash a Samsung phone? People usually Flash Samsung Phones so they can change the firmware and interface to their Samsung Android Phone. However, flashing Samsung smartphones is not easy; various prerequisites must be met. This will ensure that the flashing goes smoothly. Here are a few things to think about:
Even if you are a rookie, you must understand the fundamentals of flashing. Similarly, we observed that it might delete any form of data and redirect to its previous state. As a result, every wrong move will brick your smartphone.
Flashing is a time-consuming operation that can waste your time and effort. However, a method that can handle flashing with a single click, and is Samsung phone update software from DroidKit. With Reinstall/Update OS feature on DroidKit, you can reinstall or update your Samsung phone with a click. DroidKit is an easier and safer solution for Android firmware updates:
Hopefully, now you can use the techniques provided above to flash custom ROM on your Samsung smartphone. You can flash a Samsung phone with Odin and a Samsung phone update software on your computer. Download DroidKit to update your Samsung right now. If you have any troubles with the process or if your device has any issues during the flashing process, please let us know in the comments section below, and we will do our best to assist you.
Do you know any way to change flash brightness entering some hidden settings (common settings do not have that option) or using another settings app or camera app? The phone is not rooted, but I accept solutions in this way.
Basically, the answer is No. The OS is limited to pretty much just FLASH_ON and FLASH_OFF. Though I have seen some flashlight/torch apps that have a 'turbo' mode that makes the LED even brighter (but that's not what you want and these types of apps usually require ROOT access).
Another workaround is to remove the back cover, put a small piece of tissue paper over the LED (make sure the paper is still big enough to be held in place with the back-cover back on) and put the cover back on.
At first, I copied Debian 8 hybrid iso image to a USB flash drive with cat debian-8.1.0-i386-CD-1.iso > /dev/sdc; sync. Now, when I try to boot my IBM T43 from this USB thumb drive, then it works fine and I am able to install Debian.
If I insert the USB flash drive either to USB 3.0 or USB 2.0 port, turn on the laptop and enter UEFI "Boot Menu". Then, it contains only the "Windows Boot Manager", but I would have expected to see a list of boot options(PXE, USB flash drive, SSD, etc) there:
We had an issue where sometimes we could boot from USB keys and other times it would fail. Eventually we found that we had to power cycle the system after the USB key was attached before it was seen, if the system was just rebooted the key would never be detected.
What kind of filesystem is the USB device using? AFAIK most systems only support FAT32 (Some UEFI motherboards support more than that) - and then you must have the EFI bootblock in the appropriate location in the USB filesystem.
When plugged in, it tries to turn on. Backlights come on for quick second, then turns off right away. The standby light flashes 2 times, then when the backlights come on, the standby light stays on for very quick, then goes off again.
@jsmoove your TV has a T-con board that is integrated into the main board. Since it regains some function back by disconnecting either flat ribbon cable to the panel, this appears to be a main board fault. You can check for some obvious failed component (post a full size image of it so we can try and help with that). Yours looks like PART NUMBER: BN94-14136V and BOARD NUMBER: BN97-15525C Schematics for your main board are of course not available, which is to bad. I would try and get a working board for a decent price and see if that resolves the issue. Schematics for your main board are of course not available, which is to bad.
It is very important that first, we try to identify the issue and isolate the reason behind its occurrence. For this, we will be trying some basic checks to uncover whether the issue is with the hardware or the software of the television. For that:
In some cases, corrupted launch configurations can prevent the TV from being able to power on correctly. Therefore, in this step, we will be power-cycling the TV to completely get rid of the launch configurations which will be regenerated by the TV automatically. For that:
