Verizon sch i500 fascinate
I have root, but cannot get ant recovery to work, tries numerous flash apps, and have been through miles of forums. If anyone has the time for a one on one lesson please PM me. I am very eager to get the custom Rom thing going, downloading themes only keeps me content for so long.

I have and I believe if I had stable net and a pc id be fine, but I work on the road and keep getting same signing verification error. I understand its because the e3 recovery. So trying to bypass it. Trying to find kernel with z image to flash, it says I need it. Am interested in voodoo cause I like rocking but want performance s as well.
Thank you for answering me.

Well, best i remember you can't get past e3 recovery to install a custom recovery without using odin/heimdall...
Well sure that's just my luck...

It seems its the whole e3 recovery thing that is causing the problems. I have a custom kernel now lol so as soon as I find a way to recovery then its finally Rom time. I want a later version like 4.2 or around there but don't wanna ota it so if you run across one remember me. Ty again for all your help.

Long story short: I soft bricked and went back to stock.
Rooted phone.
Then on rom manager I pressed flash clockwork.
Then selected vibrant. That's where the problem is.
It says error occured when downloading and that's it.
I'm stuck on stock how can I make this work or will it work if someone gives me their update.zip?
Also if that works can someone give me their update.zip?
This is the first time I've had this problem and I haven't heard any similar problems so that's why I'm asking.
Thanks in advance.
Delete update.zip, Uninstall/reinstall cwm and try again on wifi

You will need to read and learn before you act. This phone is configured differently than what you are accustomed to, judging from your statement above. You won't install recovery separately on this phone, since it is built into the kernel, for instance. Most roms have flashing instructions in the OP.
Ok. Im rooted... I unlcoked it for Tmobile. and its now on 2.3.4. When i go to recovery it juts says android recovery. Im not sure if its Clockwork mod, because i havent used clockwork since the days of the Moto backflip. SO how would i go about getting Clockworkmod and then installing Slimbean.

The clear answer has already been given to you. Search for username creepyncrawly, read all the threads linked in his signature. You need to be patient, read and research for several days before attempting to flash anything. It was reckless and foolish to root before doing so.

So I rooted my S4 and all was good (Not my first rodeo)
I was running a Stock Deodexed ROM and I flashed a mod to change the toggles to blue. Still... all was good, but
then I decided to start fresh and clean up a bit. So I formated the device, wiped caches, data reset, yadda ya...
Flashed a different Stock Deodex and everything still seemed fine. I tried flashing the blue toggle mod and then got stuck on boot. Pulled battery and still nothing. Wiped all data again and flashed the ROM again without doing the toggle mod. Ever since then, no matter what ROM I'm on or have any mods, if I reboot I get stuck at boot screen. The only way to get past this is to wipe EVERYTHING again and start over. However... Hot/Quick/Shell reboot doesn't lock up on me.
So basically I'm at a point with my S4 that makes it impossible to flash anything and be able to boot. I even have to wipe everything before I can do a successful restore.
I'm using TWRP 2.5.0.2 and currently on my latest backup of cleanrom 1.3
Any ideas are greatly appreciated and welcomed. Thanks community!

I'd love too, but idk how to go about replacing a recovery. Do you push it with Odin or something? Where can I get it?

I had your issue happen to me last week. I tried everything to fix it and nothing worked. I ended up flashing back to stock. Started flashing again using TWRP with no problems.
Here is where I got info to go back to stock. Go to android development and scroll down to (Guide) No-wipe factory image by open1your1eyes and follow as instructed. Happy flashing bud!

Whelp... I got that other recovery on there, but now I can't boot or anything. No ROM works
I think I tried everything, but it looks like I'll need to get Odin involved and go from there. Its too bad that the cwm recovery can't restore a twrp backup. This sucks. Ugh. First world problems... Anyone got a link for the stock image or whatever I need to push via Odin? Ideas?
Thanks again for your help guys. I do appreciate it and know I'll get up and running again soon.

From DarkMenace's signature, quite a nice resource he has composed. I ran into a similar situation with TWRP and ClearnRom 1.3 last night, ended up using Odin to push the "SCH-I545_MDK_562219_Stock_Restore.tar.md5.gz" in that link. Went back to bone stock, but it's nice to know there is a fallback incase something ever goes awry.

Yes, but there are root files there also.
So then what? Or do I just use Odin to do the whole kernel flashing thing again to gain root? Sorry to sound so noobish, just don't wanna go through this again. Lol
Should I just maybe try that VRUAMDK no wipe .tar?

You use Odin. You can use either file.

Yeah I know I use Odin. I guess I should have worded that better.
If I push the .tar you mentioned, I lose root, but some root files will still be there. So my question is... What files and what can I do with them? Or do I just start the whole root process over again as in the first place with those two modified kernels?
The other "no data wipe .tar" file you push with Odin as well, but would you retain root? If so... I would prefer the no wipe .tar, but you know better than me and I greatly appreciate your help and guidance. If the first .tar file is the better way to go and start all over, that's what I'll do. Its almost done downloading anyways, but was just curious about the no wipe and if ya knew anything more about it. I owe you man!
Sent from my GT-P3100 using xda premium
Both files will remove root. You would need to reflash with the kernel files.

Good news is if you can get into download mode then your not bricked. You may have to just Odin the factory image back to stock and you should be fine. Don't panic!

Also might you be able to help me actually get a custom recovery working so i can flash hyperdrive? This was a lot easier with my i9500 back 3 months ago, its killing my head figuring this all out all over again
Also i notice RLS9 on the thread for hyperdrive is downloadable @ 1.7gb. could i just flash this in download mode?

Nope no roms at the moment. Next time do a little bit of reading, it goes a long way. Its been beaten to death literally theres no custom recovery for me7, its been posted atleast a hundred times and its posted in the me7 image thread as well. Check out the safestrap thread in the general section. Hashcode is working on a method for roms/recovery as we speak. After you get your phone fixed and rooted if you choose to do, look into xposed framework and the wanam module.from the play store. You will atleast be able to get some customization out of the stock me7 rom.

Hes not screwed he just has to odin the stock me7 image. The phone is still bootable in fact but everytime he tries to go into recovery its going to throw him into download mode. Back onto topic I would odin one of the stock me7 images so you will atleast have a stock recovery.

Ok sorry if this sound like noob. i wanna get it right on the first time.
My phone is running JB Build 21 with TWRP. So which comes first: restoring recovery to stock or restoring stock ROM?

I believe so but it would be great if someone else who has gone full stock on this device to chime in. My experience going to stock was on the s3.very similar just wanna double check with someone else too. I never Odin ANYTHING unless I'm 100percent sure that it's correct
And as you might know, CHECK md5. A bad tar flash will most likely hard brick your device. It's not the same as a bad rom flash
