Phone startup failed - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone !
As a new Android user, I'm in a need of help... My GS3 is running Omega 8.1 (not sure of the version...) and I've tried to install the battery fix thingie but now I an't start the device anymore.. It's stuck on a screen and I can't do anything about it. Tried CWM recovery mode to restore a back up I've done before but it says it can't mount /sdcard or something like that...
Is my phone bricked ? Is there a way to rollback what I've done and save my datas ?
Thanks for your help.
Here's a screen of what I have when I start the phone :

Boot into cwm, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, then advanced, wipe dalvik, then try restoring

If I wan't to have a really clean system I install new stock rom and make the factory reset by code. Everything is cleared after this

do a factory reset, clean cache partition, clean dalvik cache,format cache data system and sd card in cwm recovery. but do a backup first with titanium backup.
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe Dalvik-cache
done!
You will also need to flash a stock Kernel if you are using a custom one.
Also if it is for warranty purposes make sure you flash a stock firmware too. They can all be found with a quick search.

[Q] Homescreen button, screenlock and incoming calls issue

Hello everyone, i have sold my x10 to my friend few days ago. He has responsed that he cannnot erase my google account, he just could add a new one what he did. We decided to destroy the old one with factory reset but when we booted phone home button, screenlock and incoming calls didn't work. I was searching for threads like these one and I've found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1301276 - it is propably the same but i don't want to do something without being sure by you, because i weren't running any other ROM than stock. My (his) x10 is running latest official Gingerbread 2.3.3 (firmware 3.0.1.G. 0.75, kernel 2.6.29-00054-g5f01537). Please try to help if you can.
I assume the rom is rooted with xrecovery? If so I would re-flash the wolf rom but remember wipe factory reset then wipe cache and then advanced wipe dalvic cache before reflashing

And also Advanced\Wipe Dalvik Cache + Wipe Battery Stats.
Then -> Install custom zip and you choose the ROM archive from the sdcard.

[Q] Bootloop

Hi,
I'm on stock rom. But because of flashing a wrong zip (with aosp camera) my phone got into a bootloop. The first time it boots it go's to homescreen right before I have to press my pin. The second boot it doesn't go further than samsung logo. I tried reflashing stock ROM without wipe. Still got the bootloop after that. Is there a way to solve this problem? If not, is there a way to backup my sms and whatsapp in recovery?
Thanks in advance!
Wipe data and cache

Only way is to pull battery and enter android recovery to wipe data.
Hope this helps!

[Q] Which wipe cache should be applied?

I changed my default font system and after reboot my phone freezes on boot animation and doesn't boot to system. Can anyone help me?
i have a backup from all my data and rom. If i had to flash plz let me know what should i do before? should i wipe cache, dalvik cach, factory reset and system? and then install zip?
The order does not matter. But do fix permissions after flash. Just wipe everything and flash.
Be Sure To Click Dat THANKS Button If I Helped!
