I'm going crazy today for sure.
today the V20C was release for the netherlands and i wanted to get the ota, i downloaded it and agreed to install it, but the phone rebooted to CWM recovery and did nothing.
_ I tried to reboot to system but i got the CWM again.
_ I wiped cache, dalvik cache and even a factory reset but still booting up to CWM
_ I restored a backup from 10 days ago but still booting to CWM
_ I flashed Mike's cyanogenmod 10.1 and still CWM
_ I tried flashing KDZ offline fix, but the process stops at 15% and says that the usb cable and my phone aren't connected.
i thought i know my way around here, but this... this is different.
how can i flash the stock recovery?
ps: i'm bying a coffee for anyone that fixes this, i need my phone back
EDIT: after searching in this forum i got the problem solved following this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40423549&postcount=2
thanks for everyone's help i got my phone back!!!!

Check there is another method to bring phone in SW Upgrade mode. I added link in my FAQ thread. Look for "JB and cannot go in SW UP Mode." 1st question at the moment.

the only way i can get SW Upgrade mode is to do it manually (hold volume up while inserting usb cable) united drivers are installed but the process still stops at 15% everytime!
is my phone bricked forever? no one can solve this.

@hamdimo This is Wrong You cannot simply do this.
You started this thread for your problem, everyone who saw responded and tried to help you. But when it was solved or lets say, "you could solve the issue, you simply said "SOLVED" and ran away?".
You must actually tell how to solve it so in similar situation others are able to resolve the issue. Its basic norm on xda to help each other.
how did he solve it????
I posted the solution in my first op
I wouldn't do such thing ever. Please check the solution.

i have a little problem:
i just installed cyanogen 10, and all went great, except it won't do anything
it's just the blue icon on the start, and it's like that for hours, until the battery over
is there something i can do, or is complety bricked?
Doesn't sound like everything went all that great then!
What recovery did you use to flash the ROM? Did you wipe the device as per instructions first? Can you reboot into recovery mode? What ROM were you on before?
Just as a tip, you'll have to provide more detail and show you are trying to resolve the problem or you will find yourself on your own more often than not...

well, i'm kinda new to this, so i used this post on xda:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1803593 (my samsung tablet is 10.1, not 10.1v, i don't know if it makes the diference)
there was step 7 that says:
7. Once in recovery: clean cache & clean dalvik cache. (I did a full wipe to be sure I don't report bugs to pershoot which are linked to data problems).
and i remember clean cache, but the dalvik cache i couldn't find it
the rom i had was the same from the store, androind 3.2 i guess
and yes, i can go to the recovery mode, what can i do?
The first thing you shouod always to before flashing roms is make a backup in CWM recovery. If you have a backup then go to restore in recovery and restore it ans start over. Dalvnik cache is in the advanced section of CWM recovery. So is format system if you need to that per the instruction provided by the rom's OP.

i didn't made a backup, so there is any file that can bring the old system back (android 3.2) ?
or is it possible to do directly on the CWM menu? (if there is, how do i do it? )
and thanks in advance for your help
Your going to have to use ODIN to get back to stock 3.2. Use the Unrooting process outlined I this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1474971. THIS WILL WIPE YOUR SD CARD PARTITION. From there, reflash clockworkmod recovery with ODIN, but use the one provided by pershoot on his blog if you plan to flash one of his experimental CM builds. Goodluck! Follow all steps carefully, perform all necissary wipes. Oh and the first thing to do after you flash clockworkmod is perform a backup!

I think the links in the thread I gave you might be dead. If so you need the US 3.2 tar file. You can get it at sammobile.com.

Yes, but for that you will need root. Place the play store apk in system/app and give it permissions -r -r -w
That's all I can think of at the moment. Maybe some one else will have another suggestion :-/

You could ve flashed the wrong firmware or the one for different country.
try checking the firmware version and country version.
Still not working ?
Get a working store apk from Google.
No?
Use some other market temporarily like appbrain.

I have no idea what happened to my GNote, but the problem is when I reboot to ROM and unlock the screen the screen turns black, keys lit and that's it 'till I reboot and it happens all over again.
I'm looking for a fix or guide to completly wipe the phone and start over. Luckily I have my current ROM backed up.
Thanks in advance.
Are you flashing a kernel?
Once I flashed my favorite kernel with a new rom. It booted, but then I had infinite blackness. To fix it I booted into recovery, performed a factory reset, installed only a rom and was fine.

Nope, just a custom ROM, flashed 8 before this one and never had any issues. When my phone was working, I noticed something odd in root browser; some folders and files have their date set to 12/31/1969?????
I can still access TWRP and download mode.

Put the phone in download mode, open Kies, plug phone into usb, in Kies select tools, firmware upgrade and initialization. Have your phones serial number handy (Can be found under the battery). Enter model number using all caps (SGH-I717) and follow the prompts. This will put the phone back to stock 4.1.2. You will loose root and recovery, but will be back to complete stock. By far the easiest, safest method to completely wipe and start over.

What rom are you flashing, and where did you get it from? If it's from a reliable source, and you're certain it's for your device, you might have a corrupt file. You can try re-downloading it and flashing again. If it happens again notify the developer and try a different rom.

It wasn't the ROM, I've probably deleted one of them folders/files and f'ed up the system.

I hate when that happens!
If you want to just fix what you've got you can reflash the SAME rom right on top of what you've got.
If you want a fresh start, in recovery perform a factory reset, install the rom of your choice, and enjoy!
After spending all night working on restoring the phone, at least the main issue is solved, I'm back on a custom ROM.
But I still see the same folders and files with date last modified: 12/31/1969. Can't believe I'm the only one with this issue.
KIES for me does not have the selection firmware upgrade and initialization under tools...I have Emergency Firmware Recovery and Firmware Upgrade Settings, which locks the program up (I'm on a Mac)...what happened is that I tried to do a upgrade that T-Mo was passing on, and can't boot past the screen that has the gray battery, or if I'm lucky, the Samsung Galaxy Note 4G Android 4G screen prior to the T-Mo jingle...phone has been wiped twice, at least...
And where do you see these files? Most likely they were on the usb storage and it didn't get wiped during ROM install.
What if I put all of the ROMs, etc., on the SD card, and attempt to restore that way?

My response was meant for the OP.
Hello guys,
I have a problems, ive Flash my Sam-T859 and it seemed to work fine for almost a month but a few hours ago i was playing a Game (Contract Killer 2) and it just crashed and started doing the boot loop thing.
Ive Been on google all day non stop following instructions that lead to dead ends.
Ive used Odin3_v1.85 and did the "PDA" thing and it passed but went right back into the boot loop.
i read somewhere that a guy had the same problem i did but somehow figured it out. He wasnt sure how he fixed it but he said he thought it was because he needed a legit .Tar file so if someone could direct me to that would be most appreciated.

if you are rooted....
...boot into recovery and wipe data,cache,dalvik cache ( dalvik is under advanced )...now reboot.
if you are not rooted...
...boot to stock recovery and wipe cache..reboot. If that doesnt work. Then i would go to sammobile .com and find the original firmware that your device came with and i would odin that...if that doesnt work. Then you are going to need a pit.file and use odin but you will repartition the sdcard this time.
google what ive told you here so you have a better understanding of what im saying.....and let me know.

alright...i think you have some corrupted data on the sdcard....i had this happen to me twice.
see if you can just wipe data...
... if you cant..then go into mounts and mount/format data..if you get really desperate you can format the sdcard from here...,but i would flash a rom first..the one you were running..that way you have an os to boot to..unless you have easy access to odin and a pc...inwhich case id wipe it and odin the original firmware and root all over again ...

im also assuming it has a seperate kernal and recovery partition....like my p7510 wifi only variant..
if this is correct...i would either use odin to flash a newer recovery or adb to push the recovery zip file to the device..if you push the zip..just flash it..then reboot recovery and try to do your wipes and flash a rom..
this is a long shot...but im baving trouble finding the original firmware tar..if this doesnt work...i would say our next step would be to flash a kernel in recovery or odin..then flash a rom that is compatible with the kernel..i know this sounds like its redundit....but im thinking your recovery or kernel might be clashing..if not seen it before on this device...but i have seen it on other devices..

next....use your pc to push a rom to your device...
boot recovery and wipe data...cache...dalvik cache(under advanced) and format system(under advanced)...then flash rom and gapps...reboot...enjoy

i prefer the rom in my sig...but any rom kasper_h builds is smooth...but he is only really developing omni rom at the moment and probably the future...the ganboro rom is nice...but it lacks some of the customization i like in a rom...that said,omni rom also lacks the customization i like. but remember...the less resources a rom pulls...the smoother it generally is. so really you just need to read the rom threads and see what fits your taste...
fyi...ive rooted my budddies note3 and a recovery...with a rom soon to follow. so ill keep checking back in about every 10 minutes or so...if you need help...we'll get ya back up tonight..

i prefer the rom in my sig...but any rom kasper_h builds is smooth...but he is only really developing omni rom at the moment and probably the future...the ganboro rom is nice...but it lacks some of the customization i like in a rom...that said,omni rom also lacks the customization i like. but remember...the less resources a rom pulls...the smoother it generally is. so really you just need to read the rom threads and see what fits your taste...
fyi...ive rooted my budddies note3 and a recovery...with a rom soon to follow. so ill keep checking back in about every 10 minutes or so...if you need help...we'll get ya back up tonight..

and when i tried to wipe dalvik cache it says E: unknown vloume for path [/sd-ext]
i dont belive ill ever get this working again...
Okay here`s the situation.
My GT-P7500 a.k.a p4 is having a problem. Whenever I boot up, it will freeze at the boot animation, and power off if not charging and go to the charging screen if is plugged. I was using SlimBean when I had the problem, flashed AOKP and still the same. Next, when I get to recovery, wiping data takes a looooooooooooong time and never finished (Seriously 3 hours and nothing). Wiping cache`s fine. Tried using TWRP but then I`m stuck on the TWRP Boot screen. I reverted back to CWM but still the same. Is it bricked or something? Is there any solution? I`m hoping for an answer ASAP. Thank you...

had the same issue on my p4wifi...it is a corrupted file.
1) you can odin a rom..this will wipe the data completely
or
2) try to flash the last rom you were successfully on..then wipe the sdcardthis will wipe the data completelyand cache..dalvik. Then try to boot it up.
If second option doesnt work( because of the dirty flash ). Then i would either use odin or push a rom to the device and do a clean install.
Just had a brain storm..you could use twrp file manager to delete files you dont need. Might get lucky and its something you downloaded recently. ( wasnt a twrp recovery when this happened to me )

Hi Gil,
TWRP freezes on its boot screen. I`ll try flashing rom from odin. I`ll get back to you when I`m done. Thanks!

So you cant use twrp's internal file manager...or are you saying you did and that process didnt work. Just wondering..the odin should definitely work. Just sucks to loose all your files..
but as I said... Ive been there too..:silly:

I went around Google searching for p4 ROMs that are in ODIN format. Sadly, nothing found. Where did you get the ROM for your p4wifi?

The question is only one part of the answer grasshopper...How you ask( google ) it, is the rest..Lmao
Here's a Link to sammobile. Just scroll down and pjt in your device in the search box on the right and pich the right firmware. You will need to make a free account with them to download.

Okay, installed stock ROM but now I`m in a bootloop. This time no forced reboot or something, just bootloop.

Just for future reference..when you install a stock rom, like those from sammobile. It is usually needed to wipe data factory reset to get it to boot.
Sorry i didnt get back to you sooner..work is crazy, Lol
Glad you have it up...if you need any other help. Just post in my Q&A thread..I try to check it often.
Hi,
Today I had a message that I can upgrade something in my d605. So I started upgrade and my phone restarted to CWM. And now it's stuck in restarting to CWM.
So i tried to recover, install new soft and even kdz upgrade. Nothing worked and i'm still rebooting to CWM.
Can anybody help me? I'll be more than grateful.
P.S. My 'old' soft (and original) was 4.4.2 v20B
EDIT: To sum up, it looks like whole OS is missing, no matter what I do, I end up in CWM. Even factory reset does nothing. I don't know what to do...
If CWM works why don't you flash your ROM through it using a flashable zip?

I tried doing this with two different ROMs, but nothing happened. I said that new soft wasn't working, by that I meant flashing with CWM.
Ok, so I managed to unbrick my phone using guide on another forum (wich I can't post link to because of policy).
Now I just need to flash new rom, but that's easy. Thanks for (no) help everybody!
I'm sorry for you but Varcain said to not upgrade via OTA if you have cwm
cescom said:
Something like that happened to me few months ago, it was because I entered CWM with vol- + power, during data factory reset cwm said it was because data partition was corrupted;
if you did so, you simply had to go to mount and storage, format data and data/media;
(i know i'm late but if someone will face the same problem i hope this will help him)

I did that, but it didn't work for me. Whole boot part was missing, I don't know how this happened.
