Besides restoring backup, looks like your stuck flashing stock rom the rooting and cwm. If your using a rom you can cwm factory restet. Just make sure you do not tibu your systems settings or it will lock it.

Odin something else or use cwm to flash another ROM if you've got that installed.
How do you forget the pin on your own phone? Aren't you constantly locking/unlocking it to read emails/texts?

I didnt actually forget , something weird happened this morning with my pin , i remember i accessed my phone at 8:50 in the morning because my alarm went off at that time . I went ro work and arrived at 9:45. i tried to enter my normal pin 3224 and it was a no go . At first i was stunned i figured my fingers were kins of greasy and my phone was not registering my commands correctly. until i entered it over 75 times and it wouldn't go through . What perplexes me is that to set another pin you have to enter it twice and confirm it . I didnt do anything like that so im really wondering what is going on

I don't think you can flash a tar from recovery, granted I've never tried and an unfamiliar with stock recovery.
What recovery are you on? Is your phone rooted? Do you have clockworkmod recovery installed? If you have cwm, you need a zip flashable ROM from the ROMdev subforum.
If you are all stock, could Odin something onto it probably.
Also did a buddy or SO mess with you and change your PIN?

Flashed rom, phone broke

I tried to install this ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033653) on my friends Optimus T and something went wrong. I followed the instructions to the letter and after the format of the /system i couldn't actually flash the ROM because everything got deleted so i tried to restore the NANDROID that i had made and i couldn't because there was nothing there and now it just hangs at the boot up screen! PLEASE help me get this fixed
Well... may seem a bit obvious have you tried flashing a different rom from recovery yet? If you get really desperate I can supply you with the kdz file for titanium optimus 509.
Or u cud start a fresh wipe your sd card and store on of your fav roms on it and then flash it with recovery..Start afresh..If u can boot into recovery then no worries

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=946354 Try this rom. it installed just fine on my Optimus T titanium. I used clockwork recovery to do so. assuming you can get to recovery which from turned off hold volume down+home then power. If you can;t get to recovery you will probably have to use this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865479 however you would have to do it from emergency mode instead
Only two options:
1. If you can access the Recovery menu, then clear everything and flash a ROM again.
2. If you cannot, just flashed an official fimware back with kdz (use the links provided in the posts above). Then start all over again.
Simple

I think the issue your having is that adding the ext partion formats the sd card. Thus, the zip you are trying to flash is no longer there and you nandroid was deleted also. Boot back into recovery and select the usb mount option, transfer the zip you want to flash and then flash it. Simples
Ciaox simply missed the line out where is should say copy *************.zip to sd card before the bit about flashing it. I think this time following the instructions to closely caused this lol Man up
thanks mates, got it working with a a CM7 port (actually I had to go through 3 because two didn't have the Market for some reason
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
Glad you got this resolved. But for future ease of flashing download a flashable zip containing the market. such as the one listed in the instructions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1072252

cant detect sim card

i was upgrading to XXKW5 where i was in the step of downloading insecure kernel but somehow odin says md5 value was incorrect, so i took out the battery and start my S2. then, unlocking sim card screen prompted and i enter my code and wait (normally it took less than 30 secs). this time it took more than a minute, so i switch off my phone properly and turn on.. now it is either in no network mode or flight mode.. and when i try to enable flight mode thru settings, it get stuck. wat should i do now?
If you have no imei in settings/about phone you have to restore the efs folder if you have backed up it before... If you have the imei, I think you should flash a wipe stock ROM through Odin...
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA premium app
i've read bout the efs folder just now but i didnt make any backup.. however, i have a backup data from titanium backup, it was long time ago and im not sure which version and whether does it contain system data file.
is there a way to identify the version?
is efs folder being backup together using "backup system data'' in titanium backup?
if in your sd card there is a folder called EFS_BACKUP, then you can use files contained there for restoring... but I don't know how because I've used efs pro! tool... Perhaps you can try to flash a different modem... For example, in my kk5 rom i've ki4 modem....
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA premium app
Try using another simcard or re insert it just to make sure. If another simcard works then maybe your old sim was locked out or something or is broken.

USB jig won't help you with your SIM card problem lol. It's used to get the phone into download or recovery mode when you otherwise can't ( softbrick ) and to reset the binary download counter. Try to flash Frankenstein's XWKK5 ROM and see if it's gonna work.
nope, it's not bout the sim card..

[Q] Stuck at launch screem

I have a p4wifi that is stuck in a boot loop. I think the term is 'soft bricked'.
Basically, last night I turned my tab on for the first time in ages, and it all worked fine. I had rooted and flashed custom roms before (I'd been running a nightly of CyanogenMod for a long time, and it worked well), and I considered myself an expert. I updated loads of apps and stuff, and then realised I wanted a new font. I went into ROM manager and found the font I wanted, Ubuntu. It told me there was an update to ClockworkMod recovery so I wen ahead and updated it, checking the thing for Touch (I'd already bought it). That want ahead and it updated, throwing me back into the OS. I then went to get Ubuntu (I downloaded it within ROM manager), and didn't deem it necessary to create a backup, nor wipe anything. It processed it but returned an error, I though ok but never mind and I told it to reboot. Again that worked fine. I realised I was on a very old verson of CyanogenMod (probably ICS, it was around 201304). As I always do, I grabbed the latest version (again, in ROM manager), and elected to install it. I didn't wipe the delvik cache or whatever, and hit 'Reboot into recovery'. That was where the problem occurred. It wouldn't go any further than the 'Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1' boot screen (see attachment) into recovery. A similar thing happened before, but it just eventually went away after an hour or so. This has been running for a day, and there has been no progress. I've tried various key combos, like the normal way to get into recovery, but they won't work.
If I need I could find the instructions I followed, but it would be hard.
Is it completely broken? Can a save my data? Will I have to factory reset it? Will I keep my root/ClockworkMod? Will I keep my rom?
Thanks in advance to the person who can answer this
Do you have any ROM zips in your SD card? If you do, boot into recovery, full wipe and flash it. Piece of advice, don't use the recovery in ROM manager. Download pershoot's version of cwm instead in here. www.droidbasement.com

I have a few nandroid backups, if that counts? I do have a few ROM zips on my SD card too, though. Will a full wipe delete photos etc? I'm guessing it'll get rid of the apps, but that's no problem. But how would I get into recovery? I've already tried to get in with no success.

If you can find a way to get into recovery, then yes you can use your nandroid. You problem now is you can't get into recovery or download mode, right? Well can you try using adb? If you can then type adb reboot recovery in command prompt to reboot to recovery.
Oh yeah, full wipe won't delete photos etc unless you wipe your internal storage/SD card.

Oh dear, it seems that it's not showing up as an ADB device. Are there any other ways to get into recovery?

Just tried that, when I selected recovery it just turned off
So you can get into download mode?
Download mode, yes. I've got it open now, in fact
Now that's easy. Your tab can't boot because it doesn't have any sort of recovery(don't ask me why I don't know ). Apparently ROM Manager wiped your recovery clean and didn't flash the new one. Just flash cwm or twrp via Odin and try to boot. If it still can't boot, then restore your nandroid. Ironically, the same thing happened to me yesterday when I tried to flash latest twrp using Mobile Odin.

I actually have no idea. I think I used a program similar to Odin that did the job. I remember booting into download more before. Oh yes, I flashed the disk image for the root and CWM using the default windows tool. Anyway, I've fixed it now. I couldn't find a .tar to do the job so I converted a random file to a .tar and flashed it that way, tricking it into thinking it had a recovery and therefore booting. In the OS I used ROM Manager to get CWM.

[Q] Galaxy tab 10.1 complete restore after custom roms

Hi
I have a galaxy tab 10.1 GT-P7500. I have been messing around a lot with custom ROMs. Now I want to do a proper restore to official ICS. I have the Odin flashable package. When I restore it just using this, my tablet does not want to root again on this stock firmware. I looses root as soon as I flash the root package.
What I want to do is do a complete restore of the tablet. I don't really know much about the bootloaders and so on.
Should I get a PIT file and tick re-partition as well as update phone bootloader?
I have restored an old Nandroid backup and did a factory restore on the tablet but there is something wrong with it. Every now and then the tablet just do a random reboot, but not a complete reboot. The screen goes blank and then back on again. Signal gets lost and everything that I was busy with are gone. I use the Wi-Fi hotspot all the time and every time that this happens I have to turn it back on again.
Anyone who can tell me how to do a proper restore of everything on the tablet?
Boot into cwm or twrp recovery, do a full wipe, not including internal storage, then flash stock ICS again.

Because your important files are there. Unless you don't care about those files or you've backed up in your computer, then you can wipe it. I've seen people wiping their internal memory blindly and then posting "Help, my photos/videos are gone!! Is there any way to recover it???" Which is why I said not to wipe your internal memory.
Regarding the superuser, what error did it give out?

I can't remeber the error that superuser give out.
I have flashed stock ICS now, but when I try to load the update file which I always used to root it, the stock recovery give an error saying unknown path for sdcard(photo included).
I have formatted all the partitions using CWM before reflashing.
This also happened before I started using my old backup again. Do you know why this will happen? Should I try to repartition the device or something?

After flashing stock ICS, you did make sure that it booted well and let it settle first right? You can't use stock recovery to flash things. Flash cwm recovery first then flash the update zip.

First, check to see if the su binary is in /system/xbin or not. Download terminal emulator, then type su and see if it works. If it says su not found, it means the su binary is not installed. If so, try flashing the SuperSU zip (https://db.tt/18JKy062) and see if it works.
Edit: OK never mind, I see you solved it.

[q] not booting in my trend plus

Hi developers
I bought a new SD card, 32 gb for my samsung galaxy trend plus. A toshiba one. It was fine untill i saw that my screen was on, but black. Couldnt do anything. Rebooted and when booted back it was fine. But after some time it got black again. Rebooting wouldnt change anything. I see the samsung logo but i cant see my bootanimation. It is just a black screen. I removed the SD and re-tried, i thought that may be the issue. But nothing. I got to recovery and realised its all good. 100% functional. In fact i could mount my SD and do pretty much anything. My phone is rooted. What to do?
I would prefer not to format because I have very valuable pictures and music in my internal and apps in my SD aswell. Thanks in advance.
I am using linux so if any programs should be downloaded please indicate me the linux ones. Thanks so much and sorry if im being greedy or what

You cant flash Stock rom with SD. If rooted u can get a custom ROM in sd and flash it in recovery. If not rooted consider going to sammobile.com and getting the stock rom for your phone and flash it via odin! That will do the trick

Try to boot into download mode.
Then, connect your phone to your pc and open Odin 3.0.7 (firmware version!)
It should recognize the device and you'll see something will be added at id:com.
In the pda box, add your stock rom which you downloaded and flash it!
That should fix it.
If not, your device is hard-bricked and can't be fixed.
Don't forget to press the thanks button if I helped you!
