I tried installing the new MIUI on bootmanager and booted into it. Once booted into it the wifi didnt work which I read was because I didnt flash the kernal. I tried opening boot manager to go back to phone rom but it will not flash boot.img. I panicked and booted to recovery flashing MIUI with EXT4 recovery. After rebooting it still goes into the sd card rom. I then fastbooted into recovery and flashed the phone rom update.zip from the bootmanager folder. This still will not let me boot to the phone. Any help to get me back to the phone rom or install the kernal for MIUI without being able to get into boot manager or a fix for boot manager for MIUI would be greatly appreciated. Currently my phone is working but not how I wish it to.

Im on Juopunut HBoot 1.5050 (last evo i had was downgraded to 1.4) do I still need to fastboot flash boot boot.img? or boot into recovery from fastboot? Will be trying a couple of things in a minute after class gets out.
Pushing the boot.img fixed it.
Rooted Galaxy S3 i9300
I have TeamWinRecoveryProject recovery installed.
However I wiped a ROM that failed to install (CM Nightly 10.1), and when I went to restore a backup, they weren't there.
Now I'm stuck, as I have no ROM to run, and no backups to restore.
Starting up the phone normally gets me nowhere, and in recovery mode there's no ROM to flash.
How can I flash a ROM from my computer? or is there a way to get the backups back?
Thanks, Charlie.
This guide will teach u how to flash a custom rom from adb.
Why don't u just copy a rom .zip file to your sdcard and flash??
Hello,
I have just successfully rooted my S3 using "Heimdall Frontend" following the tutorial here:
However I found initially when leaving "No Reboot" unchecked I was unable to boot into CWM until I checked no Reboot then once the flash was complete I manually went into CWM by holding the recovery keys.
I then installed the SuperSu zip file on my SD card and rebooted my phone into it's newly rooted state.
HOWEVER.. I went to boot my S3 into CWM Recovery to flash a custom ROM and I'm only able to boot into the standard android recovery.. It says on the tutorial that versions 4.1.2+ need to tick "No reboot" otherwise the newer firmware simply wipes over CWM recovery every reboot..
I was under the impression that CWM was there as a safety net in case my phone ever played up and needed to be unrooted?

UPDATE: After using ROM Manager to boot into CWM to create a backup, it gave the option to "Fix reflashing to original recovery after reboot"
Is it a good idea to have CWM permanently flashed as my recovery? How would I revert back to the stock recovery should I want to unroot the device?
Thanks

Hi guys
Got a problem here!
I was using CM11 m7 with stock kernel (CWM recovery) on Samsung Galaxy S II GT i9100 (international unlocked version). I wanted to move to ASNET v5 (MIUI). So I downloaded the required files onto my external card. It included the ROM pack and PhilZ kernel.
So I flashed the new kernel from CWM recovery, which came with PhilZ touch recovery. I tried going to SD card and flashing the ROM file, but it said unable to mount SD card (in the new recovery). Unfortunately I had all the files on the external SD card, and I cd browse only the internal storage.
When I flashed CM11, I had flashed the kernel and ROM with a zip file. So I went online, and downloaded a tar file for the CM11-compatible kernel and flashed it with ODIN. Successful! My phone now booted in recovery again (CWM now, which I flashed with ODIN). Now I rebooted the phone so that I could move the files to the internal SD card (I had not done anything to the ROM, and now I had flashed back the kernel I was originally on, just with a tar instead of a zip). But now my phone won't boot!
I tried flashing the CM 11 compatible kernel (tar file) again, still won't boot. And now my phone does not boot in recovery as well! I tried flashing the new PhilZ kernel again, but again the device won't boot into recovery.
What should I do?? My phone is opening in download mode, and as I flash the kernel with ODIN, ODIN even says PASS. But my phone remains blank and does not show recovery mode.
What should I do? Should I flash the stock Samsung ROM's tar md5 file? In that case, will the fact that I haven't factory reset my phone come in the way of flashing the stock Samsung ROM? I have my Titanium backup, and I have copied it on my PC. But I don't have a backup of the Internal Storage (not the app storage, my own storage). Will I lose my Internal Storage? Please help!!!
I was on 4.4.4 and i flashed 5.1.1 rom. it didnt flash. but gave me no error. So when i flash a new rom with cwm or odin, (even with 4 file stock rom and repartition thing) i still cant flash another rom. İt flash kernels or gapps succesfully but when i restore my nandroid backup or flash a rom it shows succesfull but when i check system it has 26 mb. What should i do
Maybe flashing stock rom and after installing custom recovery fix issue but maybe there is an error at backup
