So, I unlocked my bootloader, re rooted flashed cwm. Blah blah blah. However, I had to skip a step, I could not flash from 20B to 10G like the guide I followed said I should. SO, I have an inverted screen still. with a weird orange tint to add to boot. So, any one have any ideas?
Any help is welcome and well appreciated!
I also have fastboot and CWM installed.
And the one and only time I got it to properly flash was after I installed fastboot. But I retraced my steps and I can't create the same outcome.
Did you try flashing the ICS u and x with fastboot? After that, you can flash any kdz.

Well, if your rom boots normally, then you can download ROM flasher or 4rext recovery flasher from the GP. These apps are able to flash recovery under your android/

I was going to suggest that too, but it sounds like he's at the step after unlocking but before the custom recovery which means su hadn't been installed. I believe those apps need su.
OP: are the drivers installed if you are using a windows machine?

yes,ive reinstalled the drivers a couple times.i dont have su yet.im at the step just after unlocking bootloader.

You could try locking the bootloader and running the ruu.exe to set everything back to stock and then start over.

Although the dev claims it does, Ramjet73 tried it and was having trouble getting it to work with the 3d. I wouldn't count on it working, but I do know that the unknownforce/closeone live CD hboot downgrade method and the JB wire trick do work.
The steps to getting this phone to be able to flash roms goes like:
1.) Unlock Bootloader
2.) Get a recovery
3.) Flash root package?
3.) Flash ROM?
Is this correct? I've never worked with a Samsung device before so I have no idea what Odin or any of this stuff is. Thanks in advance.

No.
1. Flash revision3 via odin following the guide in its thread. (This will give you root)
2.Follow the bootloader unlock process in adam's guide from its thread (this will unlock your bootloader and unless hes changed it flash twrp a custom rocovery.)
3. Make back up in twrp
4. Flash stuff.
im not sure if hes updated the version of twrp included in the unlock process if not get goo manager and update twrp.

Ye its pretty easy just goto the unlock boatloader thread download 2 things and follow the two instructions works perfect, just make sure all ur drivers and adb is all up to date and bam unlocked
How do I get the phone booting correctly?
what rom works every time?
Thanks
Stock. S-on, locked bootloader, unrooted, factory settings....
Edit: you've been a member of the site for 2.5yrs.... Judging by your posts you're not exactly a noob.
S-on, unlocked bootloader, with TWRP installed, root yes/no, Just need to get a rom installed and booted.
Is there some crazy way to get a rom to install and boot up correctly like all other phones?
I flashed the rom and it hangs on the boot screen of the rom.
I'm looking over some guides on what's the deal with S-ON.
If you can give some insight, that would be great.
Thanks
Take a look at the guide in my signature. It has info on flashing the ROM kernel separately when you're S-on.

Hi guys,
my hox+ seems to be bricked. I got a boot loop with the htc logo, but can still access bootloader, fastboot and recovery. But I am unable to flash the RUU image, cause of a high main version. Here are some pics that tell you more.
If I try to flash the new RUU I get the a new error now, that says "no device found" - I used the tool from hasoon2000.
Please help me, because the guy from the vodafone shop said, there's no way.
same problem with u but with AT&T , waiting for help >:<
Hope we get some help. Cant believe that the vodafone guys is right.
I dont know, why I cant use the "fix mainver error" function on masoon2000's tool.

Relock your bootloader and try the ruu again or you can sideload a Rom via twrp recovery
Your phone should be ok

I was in a similar situation. I just relocked my bootloader and the phone booted into my earlier ROM.

Hey guys, I am unable to flash the RUU with relocked bootloader, cuz my mainver is very high. How can I get it down, if "fix mainver error" from masoon2000's tool does'nt work (device not found)?

What you need a backup stock RUU. I need one myself.
How can I restore my hox+ if I have a backup. I found one (I have less than 10 Posts, so I can't post links) for vodafone, but dont know how to restore it.
I flashed the CWM recovery image and tried to load the zip file via sideload, but it doesn't work. After the upload the process aborted. Can anyone explain how to restore a stock rom backup?
You need to flash stock recovery, relock your bootloader and then run the ruu

.. and what can I do, if I get the error 140 bootloader version? My hboot version is 1.40.
Hello. I have been searching for solution to my problem since last night. Some came close but couldn't solve my problem completely. I am using an International/Unbranded/Asian/Carrier Free Amaze 4G running GB 2.3.4. As every other International Amaze user, I wanted to update to ICS but I couldn't since there was no official update to ICS for unbranded Amaze. So, I researched on how to do it and I started the journey to update my Amaze. But I faced a problem during my journey
Here's a little background of my problem:
I used Hasoon's toolkit to unlock my bootloader, flash TWRP recovery and inject SuperUser and root my phone
After that, I researched on how I can update it to ICS. I read that to achieve what I wanted, I have to S-OFF my phone and then SuperCID it and flash ICS RUU. From here, I searched on how to achieve S-OFF on my phone. I read that Hasoon had another toolkit for this purpose. I reached his thread and opened the download link but I couldn't find the file. I read he taken it down for some reason. I then googled Hasoon's toolkit and I got a download link!
Now, I am set to S-OFF my Amaze. Excited! I didn't had an external SD card so I went and got it from my dad's S3. Then, I ran juopunutbear v.6 for the first time. Everything was going good, untill " Loading sixpacks into SD card". I got an error "Barman won't serve!" .. I looked at my phone and it was stuck at the "arrow screen". I couldn't restart it unless I pulled the battery. I couldn't boot it into recovery. But I could boot it into bootloader. Anyways, I read on Juopunutbear's website that if I am stuck on "Arrow Screen" "This is normal during the procedure, until you have gained S-OFF. Run program again.". So, I ran Juopunutbear v.6 again but again the Barman won't serve me!
Curse you, Barman! I read that if I am stuck during the process I should try it on a different PC using a different cable and SD card. I changed my SD card. Found one in my drawer. Ran Juopunutbear v.6 again and voila! This time the barman served me! Now, I have been trying the wire trick for gazillion times on my Amaze but I always get the error "Still Sober". But this error is not the real problem
Short summary of my problem: I am stuck at the "Arrow Screen" attached below. My phone won't restart unless I pull out the battery. And when I start it again, it's stuck on the "Arrow Screen" .. I can't boot into recovery but I can boot into bootloader. I tried relocking my bootloader and flashing a new kernel using Hasoon's tool but as soon as my phone boots into the bootloader, my PC won't recognize it! I am stuck on a CMD screen saying < waiting for device >
I have searched a lot for my problem. I have gone till page 10 of "Amaze Q/A, Help and Troubleshooting" on XDA, I have googled it as much as I could. Some solution came close to my problem but couldn't solve my problem completely! Please help me, guys! I am using Windows 8 on both of my PCs.
Thank you
Looooooool that's a big note, just unlock the bootloader if it's locked then flash 4ext and flash the gb rom in my signature.. It'll give you a working device

So, I flashed 4ext recovery via fastboot and then "install from zip" via 4ext recovery.
But I am still stuck at the same location -_-
