Well, I just received my phone today and I decided to root it by following a guide. Little did I know that firmware I was rooting was not meant for this phone. Now the phone shows the Samsung screen for a split second and then it turns off.
Is there anything I can do to restore it back to normal? I only have access to download mode right now.
Pm howtomen hrs helped someone earlier today in irc. not sure how. But you're still ok

He helped me...long story short, there's not much we can do until a stock ROM is available.

Ohh ok thank you both for the quick replies. This sucks, I don't have a phone now untill I can get this fixed :\
So where did the dev forum for our phone go? Is it mixed in with the other major 4 US carrier versions?

It seems to randomly disappearing and reappearing.

If you can get into download mode you're ok. You need to flash a stock rom and you'll be back to normal. Don't flash chainfire's root from the international thread because the kernel is not the same.

Long story short: I soft bricked and went back to stock.
Rooted phone.
Then on rom manager I pressed flash clockwork.
Then selected vibrant. That's where the problem is.
It says error occured when downloading and that's it.
I'm stuck on stock how can I make this work or will it work if someone gives me their update.zip?
Also if that works can someone give me their update.zip?
This is the first time I've had this problem and I haven't heard any similar problems so that's why I'm asking.
Thanks in advance.
Delete update.zip, Uninstall/reinstall cwm and try again on wifi

Look in one of the other threads for the zip file and flash like normal

I would suggest Odin back to stock or restore from your back up, or go into recovery and wipe the Dlvik cache.

Then your not running stock. I've read a few of the threads you've started and come to the conclusion that either you really need to read more before doing anything to your phone, or your just trolling for posts.

You need to help yourself before anyone here will be willing to help you. You've been a member for 5 months, and you've made almost 80 posts, yet your questions consistently indicate that you do not read enough to understand your phone and how it works, yet you post that you do things with your phone that you don't understand and don't know how to correct.
Odin back to stock and leave it that way until you understand what you are doing.

Search is your friend. . Look for one click return to stock, should get ya going again. For future ref, read twice, flash once. If you're diligent and follow directions here to the T you should be good to go %99 of the time.

good. Now enjoy it as it sits now and once you read up enough to understand how to flash a custom rom, then give it another try.
I hadn't rooted before the OTA ICS update (TELUS) but decided to finally root my phone and stuff....
i wasn't being really careful i guess and I just tried the one click odin method but I found out later this doesn't work on ICS i717.... hence my phone now seems to be bricked
it gets stuck on samsung logo. I really don't want to try and factory reset my phone and stuff... is there another way to try and unbricking this thing? I've now downloaded CWM on ma phone but I dunno how this is going to help...
PLEASE HELP ME!!
Look at my thread
That is a soft brick if it was brickd. It wouldnt do anything at all. If u have cwm download a rok. Wipe data/cache and flash it . You can also always jut use odin. To flash a tar

thanks guys! managed to get all my data back + rooted

I did but i tryed using that triangle away and it brought me back to the screen where it says unatorized software when I did a reboot and I need that firmware again so I can take it out of that unatorized software thing not unless if you know of a way to do it with out having to re dowload the stock firmware again thanks
Sorry I am new to this device. I was under the impression if you flashed it back to a stock rooted odin then you would have the original firmware and the app should work as advertised. Sorry never used it myself that is why I am curious incase I ever get in your position.

Good news is if you can get into download mode then your not bricked. You may have to just Odin the factory image back to stock and you should be fine. Don't panic!

Also might you be able to help me actually get a custom recovery working so i can flash hyperdrive? This was a lot easier with my i9500 back 3 months ago, its killing my head figuring this all out all over again
Also i notice RLS9 on the thread for hyperdrive is downloadable @ 1.7gb. could i just flash this in download mode?

That is correct. No custom recovery, no roms, no going back. Root, debloat, try playing with Nova Launcher is about all you can do for now.

Nope no roms at the moment. Next time do a little bit of reading, it goes a long way. Its been beaten to death literally theres no custom recovery for me7, its been posted atleast a hundred times and its posted in the me7 image thread as well. Check out the safestrap thread in the general section. Hashcode is working on a method for roms/recovery as we speak. After you get your phone fixed and rooted if you choose to do, look into xposed framework and the wanam module.from the play store. You will atleast be able to get some customization out of the stock me7 rom.

Hes not screwed he just has to odin the stock me7 image. The phone is still bootable in fact but everytime he tries to go into recovery its going to throw him into download mode. Back onto topic I would odin one of the stock me7 images so you will atleast have a stock recovery.
