I had to do a wipe back to factory/rooted. I used "Root66 stock VRALJB 4.1.1 12/2/12" after i got a Not authorized verizon software brick from trying to run clockworkmod. Long story short after several attempts like all the good attempts. I got to the "this is your first time setting up the phone.
Great, but after selection English i cant get my phone to Activate for the next step.
Any ideas....
Thanks!
Have you done a battery pull? I have to pull the battery if it freezes during the activation after using Odin. If that doesnt help maybe you could reflash in Odin and see if that helps. Msybr someone else will have a few better suggestions.

Hey forum,
First off I'd like to say, I have done quite a bit of searching on this and either get caught up in endless pages of crap I don't fully understand or I just can't find the answer. My apologies if this issue is simple and out there.
With that said, I'm definitely a noob at all the rooting and ROMs for phones. I've spent 20 years using cell phones as.. well, phones! Had no idea the world that was waiting for me and the time consuming hours of research and trial and error.
So I got the Amaze and first off, wanted to root it so I used CWM which is currently running. I then get an update notification for ICS but every time I try to install it, I'm stuck at a green X logo.
Is there a way to install ICS with CWM already on my phone or do I need to remove it first? I have searched for both answers which is why I finally set up an account and created this thread.
Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated!

Hey thanks for your incredibly condescending reply! I see by your "thanks" meter you obviously have no idea how to provide value to others, especially newcomers.
use hasoons toolkit to flash the stock recovery back onto your phone, then if the boot loader is unlocked go and relock it. then after those 2 things are done, attempt to upgrade to ics.
after you upgrade to ics you can root and unlock it again.

Really? It takes two people to tell me this? This was first post ever and I already created another thread in the right section. This one can be deleted though. Definitely had my issues resolved. Thanks!

The other person wasn't a Moderator. So yeah, I had to tell you. No worries though. Rush is my favorite. I've been drumming and following Neil Peart since the 80's. Great stuff man. Glad to meet a fellow Rush fan.

Does it matter if it has a kernal? Aren't they interchangeable? they were on the s3.
I would strongly advise against it for now. Let the dust settle a bit before doing something like that. In a week tops you'll have some good information out there on what your options are when it comes to ROMs.

i agree with DaRkL3AD3R modules need to be switched to make sure we have no issues, at the most i say wait till monday and we might even have parinoid android
You need a lot more than just modules and libs changed most likely. I know it is a world phone, but odds are, you are going to need framework changes as well to get them to work. If you don't know how to test, then don't flash it. Wait until someone that knows how to at least debug things tries it before testing yourself and turning your phone into a paperweight.

Tried going back to stock. Seems like it worked but still have SU. However when I check if I'm rooted it says I'm not. When trying to go back to root I keep getting various errors. Could this be a cause of not being stock?
Did you unroot in super user?
