I need help.
I'm running this rom and lately my phone has just been rebooting randomly, well now its switched off and I can't get passed the "Samsung Galaxy S3" on boot. I don't even get to the omni animation.
I booted into recovery in an attempt to flash an old nightly but when I click on install TWRP says 0 internal memory and 0 external memory?
What do I do?
Please help, thanks.
Edit - Another thing, I went to reboot while in recovery and it said I had no OS installed?
It just occured to me that I could probably flash a rom/nightly via odin, since I can get into dl/recovery mode, but since it says 0gb int and ext when in recovery, will this work?
Not detecting memory seems like a hardware issue to me, but I know literally nothing, just asking/helping/promting
ps when i plug in the charger, the battery logo comes up
although its empty (not green), and it has a little circle in the middle to indicating loading of some kind, but the circle doesn't spin, like it's crashed.
i know i have at least 50% battery because it says so when i enter recovery
Recovery format sdcard system data cache .
Boot to download mode flash stock rom via Odin .

i'v solved it, finally found my sideload in sdcard and boom, it works now,
Hello everybody.
I have a huge problem and basicly it is my fault. Yesterday i repartitioned my microSD card and created swap partition. Just to see if it works. I used swapper 2 to activate this. After this operation phone was working as usual (it was official nightly build of CM 10.2 from 19.09.2013). But...when i rebooted, the phone was stuck on Samsung logo (So yes, even CM bootloader didn't start working). It was 1 A.M. so i was nearly sick with this, but fortunatelly CWM and Odin mode were working. So did battery recharge. Odin and battery still works.
I have tried cache wipe, full wipe, installing another CM version (10.1.3 - via CWM), installing official samsung firmware ( I9300XXEMG4 - i checked in odin only Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time) - whcich resulted in removal of CWM. But it is always stuck on samsung logo, so system itself is not booting. Filesystem is more or less OK, because i launched astro file manager from CWM and was able to copy most of my data.
I tried to do adb logcat when it is trying to boot. Windows recognizes device as "Samsung Mobile MTP Device" after ~20 seconds from turning on, but it can't load drivers for it.
Please help. I am really grateful for any answer.

Solved. It turned out that /efs was somehow wiped.
So my friend's phone died during a software update which completely messed up his phone. I thought it would be a simple fix, no problem, but there is hardly any valid information out there that can help me (due to a lot of dead links). Here's the issue:
The phone (SPH-M950 btw) loads the initial "Samsung" image on the screen. Then it goes away and starts to boot up with a blank screen. My computer recognizes the device until a couple seconds late the phone restarts itself and continues this boot loop. I cant boot into the stock Android Recovery but I can boot into Download Mode. I've tried for hours to flash all kinds of ROMS with Oden but, despite the fact that Oden says everything worked, it still continues the boot loop.
If possible I would like to get the OS to work again without losing any data. If not then I would at least like to get the phone to return to it's OOB state so it's at least functional.
Help please?

Did you try to access the recovery mode after you flashed anything?
Try it and check whether it works. Then try to format /system /data and /cache (internal data will be lost) and then reflash stock rom via Odin.
Then try again.

I forgot to talk about accessing recovery mode. All that happens an Android logo pops up and starts to look like it's loading the recovery os but then the phone just reboots again and continues to do the boot loop. Nothing changed no matter what custom recovery I flashed.
I would have no problem if I could just get into the recovery menu but that's my biggest obstacle.
Hello, I was trying to reset my tab completely and I wiped EVERYTHING. I have CWM version 6.0.1.0, My tab gets stuck on Samsung logo screen. It can go into recovery but nothing else. I was told that the reason it won't boot is because I deleted the rom and there is no rom for it to go to. When I try to mount it, it doesn't show up...I've tried to install CWM 6.0.4.6 zip from external SD but installation gets aborted. PLEASE HELP I NEED MY TAB BACK ! Also it shows charging when it's turned completely off...

When you say mount it do you mean trying to send the files over through ADB or just mounting the SD card or putting it into download mode?
If its the ADB issue, try to put your tablet into download mode by using the volume key and power button, then download odin and its stock firmware and flash it using odin. Your tablet should restore to factory defaults using that method
If its the SD card then use the method above as it sounds like recovery may have lost it a bit
If you can not put the phone into download mode (which i doubt is the issue you may want to think about a USB jig as they sometimes get past those issues but from your description I doubt its a hard brick as it gets to the logo
2 things you can try!

I really new to this, i mean writing to help people, so don't flock me.
First, you say your device still have the recharging lights on when shut down, it tells me it's not only a software error, but some short circuit has happend.
Have you tried a hardreset? search google for your model if you doesn't know how.
From what i can read you still have the CWM Recovery, so download Android-SDK and try flashing the recovery from ADB (Found in platform tools.
Last but most tricky, if nothing helps, you' have to disassemble your device and temporary disable the battery, them press and hold the start button down for 5 sec to remove the poweroverload, reassemble again and try ASB adain, you can't reinstall the recovery directly from the SD

Hi
I have a problem. I rooted my phone, instaled some custom rom with cm7 biel's kernel. There was 0 problem with that. I instaled some apps and played some games and then my phone got stuck on black screen with only touch keys light on. I reset my phone but it rebooted like it was it first time (google acc configuration and etc.). Rebooted it again and it appeared again. Next time I restarted seen only samsung galaxy ace logo. Tried to put phone on download but i can't (only logo appears). Recovery starts but only as CWM and i cant mount data (error: cant mount /data). On SG Ace logo, odin sees my phone on 2 ports(0:[COM4] and 1:[COM3]). What to do? Better to flash some rom by recovery or try to put some stock rom on logo screen?
P.S: I can't turn off phone, it keeps to restart to last mode
EDIT: K, almost done. Now i can turn on system and odin mode. But still cant mount /data and my internal storage for apps is unknown (i bet it would be 0/0b). What should i do?
