While trying to fix my message problem (stuck in sending) on my Custom ROM TW 007 on Xperia X10, I have managed to completely screw my phone. Now, I have the following issues
1. Wifi doesnt work.
2. SD Card wont mount
3. SEUS wont connect.
4. Busybox wont install. (problem with Core Utilities)
5. xRecovery wont install.
and obviously Messaging wont work.
I would greatly appreciate if experts can help me out here since I have been stuck for couple of days now with it. Otherwise I be buying another phone soon and sadly I may have to switch from Android to another platform
try reflashing firmware ?????
I am no expert,but i would suggest you to try and flash stock.
Hope this help....
Try flashing your stock firmware by flashtool.

How do I flash Stock Firmware? I dont have it? Is there a link for it?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=928343
Thanks. Will update with results
I somehow deleted last Post from someone who sent a link to the Stock Firmware. Many thanks. My phone is back.
I want to flash Custom ROM again as the stock is too slow.
I went it Xrecovery and Unzipped the Wolf_GB_2.3. It was successful but nothing happened. I am currently on 2.3.3. Is that the issue?

dont unzip it.
Place it on the sd card and install it in xrecovery.
Make sure you have the correct version of the rom...i imagine you need one the locked bootloader version
you will never lose it. SLOW AND STEADY WINS THE X10. the phone is unbrickable. Good luck.

Not quite, with an unlocked bootloader it is, speak to DooMLoRD about it
But with a locked bootloader you are correct, a repair with pccompanion will always sort out the phone

He bricked it in a process most of us are not even able to comprehend,
let alone perform, so for the average user, X10 is pretty much unbreakable.

Which is what I meant, but it is incorrect to say it is impossible to brick it, just that it is extremely unlikely that mortals like us will ever do anything that could brick it..
try disconnecting the cord while the bootloader unlock is "in progress". you'll pretty well realise that lesser mortals can brick this phone too.

Not really, he was trying to find a way to flash kernels into boot partition from OS/recovery and after insmodding a module, device got stuck and died after unplugging,
but probably bootloader got corrupted during the insmod and not the unplug.
Anyway, that doesn't happen every day!
And yes, it's a golder rule: don't unplug it!

Hey folks,
I just bought the white international SGS II and i'm loving it!
I previously had an Infuse 4g, so I am pretty experienced with flashing/backing up/ restoring...but I have questions/concerns regarding the I9100.
I am about to try out the CM9 Unstable, so I backed my current stock ROM up using CWM Manager 3.0 (I am on CF-Root 5.0) onto my Internal SD, as I do not have an external SD card.
Now, I have had bad experiences with CM7 with Infuse and ended up not being able to restore due to many problems like MD5 mismatch, different CWM version, and problems while restoring ( I think it said something like devblock??)
So I'm pretty worried about not being able to restore back to the backup i just made.
So correct me if I'm wrong folks,
1) Go into CWM, flash CM9(once? twice?), Gapps, Faceunlock,
2) Data wipe/factory reset
3) Reboot
and should I choose to restore back to the stock Rom backup,
just go into CM9's recovery and restore..?
will this method give me problems restoring? will I have different versions of CWM recovery from the one I have currently? Is there any way to check if my back up was made properly?
Thanks a lot folks! Appreciate it!
Edit: "Make sure you're already running ICS bootloader (if not, go to SamMobiles and flash XXKP2 bootloader)". Is this necessary? Cus I have seen some folks say that they've not and was fine installing CM9.
First the procedure:
1. Wipe
2. Install CyanogenMod 9
3. Reboot
4. Install CyanogenMod again
5. Install gapps and face-unlock
Worked for me every time.
Your backups should work unless there were errors while creating them.
If you want some more safety, you can create a new backup after flashing the Siyah-kernel. The latest version uses the same version of ClockWorkMod as CyanogenMod 9.
Whether you need to flash the bootloader or not, depends on whether you already have it or not. I'm running galnet-MIUI and already had the bootloader installed. I don't know how to tell if you have it.

Ok...
I did further research and found out that Nandroid backup backs up everything EXCEPT the kernel.
I'm pretty sure that CM has its own kernel...but will it be CWM 5.0.2.7(the one i made backup in.)?
If it's not, the correct steps for me to restore my nandroid back up is to
1)boot into download mode from CM9,
2) put the cf-root kernel that i used in the ODIN PDA, flash,
3) turn off phone, reboot into CWM, then restore my nandroid back up right??
Can anyone please confirm this method??
I only have this phone and I cannot risk soft-bricking or hard-bricking this beautiful device.
Thanks in advance!
Also, i made a back up in blue recovery of CWM 5.0.2.7..does that matter?

thanks for the reply,
so I must have the ICS bootloaders in order for CM9 to work?
ooo siyah kernel method... that makes it easier! haha thanks so much!
I will proceed to do that!
btw, how is CM9 working for you?
do you think you'll be able to use it as a daily driver now that NITZ is gone??
1. Afaik cwm backs the kernel up and restores it too. (afaik = 99.9% sure, in this case)
2. CyanogenMod ships with its own kernel.
3. The kernel is not cwm. ClockWorkMod is just the recovery that is integrated into the kernel. CyanogenMod 9 has cwm-recovery 5.5 (Siyah too btw)
4. You don't need to use download-mode to restore.

You must have ICS-bootleggers. He did not say that for fun xD.
Is it suitable as daily driver for me?
Nope.avi
Why?
Accelerometer is unresponsive, so it takes forever to flip your screen.
Battery drainage is horrible.
Camera isn't working properly.
And the biggest no-go for me:
The device gets way to hot when using it.

Btw,
Flashing CM9 Zip does not flash the ICS bootloader right?
so then if I want to restore to my GB 2.3.5, would I need to flash GB bootloaders before restoring via Odin??
If the zip would flash the loaders, he wouldn't have mentioned it.
They're backwards-compatible.

If you need to make a post in the Q&A forums about flashing CM9, then you are definitely not the sort of person who should be flashing it. It is in very much a beta stage and there is a very high possibility it will **** your phone up even if you have done nothing wrong. If that happens you need to be the sort of person with enough experience to solve the problem by themselves. If you are asking questions before you've even flashed it then really, it's not for you. Use CM7, at the moment it's better than CM9 in every single way.

It's not thaaaaaaaaat bad. I mean, he won't be able to brick the device through cwm.

I couldnt agree more... i think people here on XDA need to stop trying to be all hot **** saying Oh you asked a question your a noob... in reality most ppl here want to ask the same question but dont because afraid of getting *****ed out... and when someone else asks... try to be badass and put the person down...
Iv used a Galaxy S and a Moto Atrix and now a S2... flashed the life out of each phone along with all kinds of stuff and mods... yet i would have wanted to ask these same questions before flashing hence googled and found this thread... So thanks to those that replied as well... i was about to flash ics till i read this and guess imma hold back now even more...
But again i think people here need to calm the hell down... a person asks a question in the thread and you call them a 'noob' and what not... a person asks a question in the Q&A section and again you tell them off... stop being such anal retentive trolls...

Most people should not flame some one as long as they show they have at least tried to look for an answer first. Yes we were all new at one time but we all learned.
Like you said you Googled and found your answer. Not that hard.
Think it's bad now. Should have seen it a few years ago. Lol clutter up the threads with questions that the answers were found with a search. You got warned. Do it twice and you went on vacation for a few days to learn how to search. So the next time you think people are being too hard. Remember it is not as hlbad as it was.
When I search for the answer, I ended up here.
are these considered ICS bootloaders? If not, when would you flash them, because they are completely unmentioned in any of the instructions or FAQs

one suggestion. don't use apps2sd. there's no reason when you have gigs of space available for apps... it just slows down your phone..
just reboot and try installing again. if it doesn't work factory reset. oh and remove apps2sd that could cause it possibly.

You have created many new threads as of late asking many questions, all about rocko rom and most of them basic and/or vague. Have you ever thought the of ya know, trying a different rom? Thats the point of flashing roms, finding one that fits you and your phone. These forums are far from ignored, most here just offer help to people that help themselves. If you dont want to put the work in to learn how to troubleshoot simple problems, then perhaps you shouldnt be flashing. And you sure as hell shouldnt be bashing the people who take the time to offer you advice. Have fun with your gs3.
Also, these types of questions are meant for the Q&A section.

Mof 2.3.5ish rom, imperium initiative rom. Do you mean that youve taken the ota 2.3.5 update that permalocks you or your bootloader is just still locked? If its the latter, you can try out those roms. Im personally running mof and really enjoy it. But imperium was my favorite and by far most stable rom we had imo, and it has a locked version.

Bought the phone with 2.3.5 on it, and immediately started flashing stuff. So yes, my bootloader is locked and I can not use pudding.
And, thats great theres a locked version of imperium, but it is not compatible with Electrifys, unfortunately.

Mof his getting ready (if he hasnt already) to release a version of his rom for the 2.3.5 permalocked people. But regarding your problem, havnt been on bootstrap recovery in quite a while but im pretty sure you can still wipe cache, dalvik, and fix permissions. If you havnt already done that i would bet it would fix the majority of your problems with rocko.

As for my problems with rocko, I just did a factory reset rather than SBFing and then re-flashed rocko, and sure enough most of my problems went away.

So hello there sgs3 community!
I just received my sgs3 yesterday and wanted to know what should i do first with it?
I mean root and etc, could anyone help me with that?
It depends, are you happy with stock firmware?? Only you can decide buddy, its your phone. I rooted mine because their are a lot of good ROMs out their, each with different assets etc, but mainly because I didn't want to be limited on what I can do with my device, but if you want my opinion, I'd root and flash Tamaseks kang of CM10 naked android is always the best p.s make sure you have the international S3 (quad core) before you flash anything in this section because inevitably you will brick your device if you dont. Good luck buddy

Triangle away isn't a recovery, its just an app that erases the flash counter in case you want to send your device to Samsung for repairs because you should know, unauthorized mods void your warranty. CF-Root has a recovery and will be installed upon flashing with Odin

The only way of switching to and from custom and stock, is to root, make a nandroid backup then flash custom firmware. The only downside is that your official firmware will always be rooted, unless you start afresh with Odin hope this helps buddy, welcome btw, good choice in switching from iPhone to S3....you won't regret it

Once you rooted your phone which also include cwm, you can backup your rom with cwm and flash other rom. If you don't like it, use cwm to restore your previous rom

Most important: back up EFS! Store it somewhere safe, because if anything goes wrong, you're going to be very happy you've got a backup

Hi, I have recently gone from an iPhone 4S and got my mothers S3 (international, i9300 running 4.1.2). As an advanced iphone user, who is familiar with jailbreaking, I want to try root my phone. However, from what I've read around here and other forums, rooting seems to be far more complex than jailbreaking, and it seems like there is a bigger chance of bricking your device if you do anything wrong. Therefore, I ask you to please give me a newbie tutorial of how to root this phone and preferably some pros and cons about rooting.
Thanks in advance!
Hi and welcome to XDA and Android!
The best way to root would be to click on the root information tab after searching for your phone in the top right of the XDA website.
The video will take you through the whole process!

Start by reading the stickies at general sections, Everything you need to know is there. Good luck!
And for pros and cons there is for example this video.
/Edit: Im so slow typer D:
thanks, both of you. I am going to look more into it a bit later, but meanwhile a new question. If something goes wrong and my phone gets soft or hard bricked, how big is the chance of fixing it? One thing I really like about iphones is that no matter how much you mess up, you can just perform a restore in itunes.
You shouldn't have any problems if you follow the instructions.. As simple as that.
A soft brick is extremely easy to fix, a hard brick is really rare and only happens if you mess with the bootloader so just read carefully and be brave, you will actually notice that it is really easy and somewhat safe these days..
If you need any assistance if you mess up just send me a PM..

That's great! My last question is about the video under root info, does it support all versions?
Probably easiest to root by flashing a custom kernel (as probably all have root included) flash using mobile odin, then it takes a minute to do. Custom Roms usually have root too.

Before flashing anything use the right file to flash , dont flash any other device firmware and use cf auto root it will root your device in 30 seconds only

Like everyone suggested, just flash a compatible kernel like perseus and you should be good to go with root AND a custom kernel.

So if I have stock JB, no root, I can just flash perseus and I'm rooted?

Click to collapse
