I've formatted everything on my eris using ClockWorkMod Recovery v2.5.0.1. When i say everything i mean: /boot, /system, /data, /cache, and the sdcard. I did this because i kept getting stuck on the three skateboarding androids screen after trying to do the dual boot thing from ADX. Anyways, my question is whether or not i am still able to load a ROM and if someone could help with that.
Your help will be greatly appreciated
Thanks

I think it's a little extreme to format every thing on the phone but that being said have you tried putting a rom back on to the sd card and attempting to flash it? Does it give an error?
I guess formatting everything was the answer because doing a wipe + dalvik wipe wasn't enough the other times. Its working now that I have KaosFroyo v39 on it. Thanks for your help.

Hello, I have a noob question that might have been answered, How ever i cannot find any thing on here or the web. So if any one can help please let me know.
The problem: Rooted and unlocked bootloader. Flashed CM7 nightly 15 got infinite loop splash screen, So i re-wiped all catches and cleared system and tried fresh install through cwm recovery 4.0.1.4 and now all that will pop up is Moto start screen. I can still access recovery and had a friend charge my battery. I have no clue on why things are not working. Again I apologize if this has been answered before. If any one can help I would greatly appreciate it!

Flash RomRacer's latest CWM Recovery (in dev section). Boot into fastboot and fastboot -w, upon reboot enter Recovery, factory reset/wipe data, wipe cache partition & wipe dalvik cache. Flash CM7, then wipe cache partition & dalvik again before rebooting... report back.
That worked great, thank you very much!!!!

Noob Q . I want to reformat my internal and external sd card and just wondering if that would affect the Rom and kernel. In other words , will my phone still turn on after i do this action? will it also affect the cwm recovery. Any info is much appreciated, sorry if im such a noob. Thanks
P.S. i have tried searching before posting and couldn't
find the answer im looking for.
So i have actually tried reformat internal and external sd card through cwm recovery, after reformat i just boot system and it did but when i check some pics files it shows the nmber that it's still there but doesnt show the pictures so i figure maybe i should reboot and then thats when i got stuck to boot loop , i was thinking while rebooting that maybe i should have clear cache and dalvik . The problem is the phone is unable to boot into dload or cwm recovery, i also have done battery pull , stuck at the rom boot animation. Need help ,any info is much appreciated. thanks.
Edit: after few tries i was able to boot into cwm recovery , so i just did a clean reinstall of my rom, everythings fine now. But i still wonder
why it happen, what did i do wrong. By the way even after the reinstall i still got boot loop , it finally boot after factory reset in cwm.
2ndEDIT: And the problem is the kernel version 3.2.8 siyah , found out at the kernel thread.
I've taken on a bit more than qualified I guess as I rooted my att GS3 just fine and flashed a new aokp rom and was up and running but started to have intermitent flickering. It prompted me to reflash rom with CM10 and this is were my problems began. I wiped data/factory reset, cache partition,Dalvik cache, mounts & storage format cache, and accidentally format emmc which I think is my problem. I was able to still reboot to CWM recovery but I can't do much more than that, and now I can't get to CWM recovery mode at all. Have tried to boot and reflash from ex/sdcard no good. PC doesn't recognize phone to do recovery from backup and I didn't do internal backup which I now know was dumb. Is there anything I can do to get back up and running or did I screw myself and have to get a new phone? PLEASE HELP HELP HELP!!!!!!!!!

Hey. I rooted my phone 3 days ago and installed wanamlite rom. It was good but i felt uncomfortable so i wanted to install the Android Revolution rom. I read the instructions, it was okay,i placed my superwipe and rom.zip to int card. After that i made a wipe/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik then flashed superwipe from cwm. Right now i got nothing on the phone. The phone boots but stucks in galaxy s3 logo. I can go into odin mode and cwm but cannot go into fastboot. I removed my sdcard to another phone, moved the rom.zip into it then i replaced again into s3. Went to the cwm and tried to flash from sdcard but then i got the error which is "e: can't mount sdcard".. So im totally stuck, I don't know much things about what can i do now.. Please help me, thanks..
