[abandoned] A3y17lte (SM320FL) no SIM

Hello.

Around 2020 I ran my A3 using e-GSI unofficial builds. During an update (e-0.9, I gess) I broke system, then went into Lineage (still unofficial, but non-gsi). So:

  • SM320FL, TWRP 3.7.0_9-0, Astrako’s repartitionner, Lineage (outdated) by Debie,
  • last ronnz98’s build, SDcard,
  • total wipe (except SD), format data, reboot to recovery, flash zip.

At first boot:

  • e sent a popup “internal error”, I saw that SIM wasn’t detected,
  • from e-recovery (where is my TWRP?), commands return:

" E:Failed to clear BCB message:
failed to find /misc partition."

How can I solve this to get a working e-phone, please?

Update.

I had to flash stock and restart all config of the device (TWRP, repart., ROM).

Standby, now, because I need to get and flash repart. V2 and so on…

Update (bis).

Back to stock many times but I couldn’t solve “Internal device error”. ROM seems to work but without detecting SIM. Tried to remove/put SIM and so on…

So, end of test.

I think (but can’t prove) problem comes when eOS-recovery overwrite TWRP. My device had always need special attention to recovery (mount partitions + reboot recovery, sometimes need to format data). If the Recovery doesn’t patch fully, installations result buggies.

Sorry.

Hello,

I’m still a newbie here.

After several hours, I also got a used A3 (A3y17lte)running with e/OS.
The latest version of ronnz98’s build works for me, with some exceptions. I also get the ““internal error” message … and the SIM card isn’t recognized.

I’d be also happy if someone has a solution.
Until then, I’m currently using the following version of ronnz98’s build work:
