hi i need help plz after rooting i don spl . the device now on g1 logo i try meny things home+power - cmera+power ..... nothing
First of all, you've officially murdered the English language. The only way I sort of understood what you were saying was by copy and pasting your post to Google Translate.
Secondly, I still can't understand it. So you rooted but didn't flash an SPL but flashed the radio, and now your stuck at G1 logo? Hmmm, I could only presume you've successfully entered Bricksville (Population: Noobs*Infinite).
Try pulling out the battery and boot into Recovery (Home + Power) Mode, FastBoot (Back + Power) Mode, or Bootloader (Volume Down/Camera + Power) Mode.
Or plug in USB adapter into device and setup ADB. After you've successfully setup ADB, get back to me so I can give you the commands and needed nbh files to pull you out of your predicament.
I mean, after change recovery img I done spl but the device freeze on G1 logo and it doesnt respond . what you mean setup ADB ???????
dude you are basically f'ed. you didnt update your radio did you. you just flashed a spl. welcome to BRICKSVILLE. population...YOU. and countless others who probably didnt READ AND RE READ THE ENTIRE POST AND READ WHILE YOU ARE DOING THESE PROCEDURES. these CAN AND WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE IF YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING.
It's quite amazing that the population of "Bricksville" continues to grow. There is plenty of literature out there about rooting your device but it still seems to elude some. Just awesome. And how true.. Noobs*Infinite... I lol'd.

Very true, it's impossible to brick unless you have trouble reading that means you need to go back to elementary.

you got help. the jokes were for our amusement. its not our fault you bricked your phone, we are allowed to "chuckle" when other people mess up, because we know that we are smart enought to keep our very expensive phones up and running.
I want to root it and deodex it.
What is the easiest way to go about it.
I read his thread but it says you have to be rooted for it to work.
But i dunno what my OTA or what ever is im just being apprehensive cause i don't wanna go in gung ho and **** it all up!
Thanks guys
First start with the thread Root, Recovery, and Update. Follow the first section called "Note 1" to root and flash clockwork recovery. Then you can follow the steps to flash the Deodexed system. Make sure you make a backup of your system before you try to load the deodex just in case.
Yeah... definitely do your reading before you start cluttering the forums with these silly posts. If you read the Sticky Thread at the top you would not be having these questions. Call me an ass, call me whatever... but if people would just read everything would be so much better.
I did read that thread. it hasnt been updated in like 3 weeks so i didnt want to do something out dated, As i said i didnt know what OTA that would be great if there was a sticky for lingo too. But Im sorry im cluttering your precious little forums bro. Hope you can sleep at night knowing that will be not packed with posts about people looking for advice without people being condescending assholes.
The thread hasn't been updated because Theirs no updates simply everything in the root thread is confirmed and working just follow instructions very carefully and you shouldn't run into problems. But as you know it if "You" screw up then you might can get bricked.
I just followed the One click root method like 5 mins very easy then Clockwork recovery was easy trust me not hard.
Seriously.
I feel that if the first five posts on the forum were just stickied copies of the LOOK HERE FIRST thread, people would still be making these waste-of-space posts.
Human nature, I guess.
I'm happy you got your phone and I share your excitement over it, but I don't really care that you have it, and I don't need to know that, either.
After you're all Deodex'ed, Rooted, and Backed-up, just wait around and lurk like the rest of us until somebody makes something for us.
and btw i learned all of the lingo by typing things i didn't understand into google.
Very well put... lmfao at people getting all butt hurt. Come on mods, delete the thread.
When i run the root with the 1 click method after it says exploiting my phone its going to force the files on it says error: phone not phone. it retries about 5 more times and then it just ends.
Any help?
When you ran the Odin did you click Phone or PDA your suppose to click pda and select the files.. you shouldnt mess up anything if you just read carefully so simple.
I havent got to odin yet. After It restarts my phone and tells me to unlock it it says it should take 3 minutes to finish. It says it error: cannot find phone. this happens when it is trying to put thr.files on the phone.
^^ The same thing happened to me until I downloaded different drivers than what was posted in the one click thread. Google "Samsung Fascinate drivers" and click on the link through Verizon.
I couldn't tell you why the ones in the thread didn't work, but I guess sometimes that's the way it is... Also, the less you have running on your PC the better. I made a different login just for hacking/cell phone stuff that doesn't have much of anything running on startup.
So I got a htc mytouch 4g And it has that phone icon with a triangle and exclamtion mark. I dont know anything about this phone since I have a att captivate From what I read is that if you have recovery you might be able to do it.
Also when I plug in the usb I go into recover and I Get a fasboot screen and other sorts of menus i have put a pd15img.zip in my external sd card and it loads installs It I guess but still boots into the same Icon.
from what I also read is that you can fix this by loading a stock rom pushing into your sdcard via adb but make sure is name update.zip but when I do that I get Invalid Operation.
when in recovery I have this message E:cant't open /cache/recovery/command also phone boots right into that icon.
I assume this is a soft brick since I get into recover and the other fasboot menu when I plug in USB any help is appreciated
This is my first time with a phone like this so I'm doing what I would normaly do with a captivate ish
I'm sorry for posting in wrong section. Cant fine the Delete option mods delete if possible I posted in QA
Wrong place ro poat your question. Post in Q&A please.
Indeed, wrong section, but we can wrap this up quickly. Unfortunately, that's not a soft brick, but a hard brick. Those cache errors in recovery indicate that you have a bad eMMC chip. No one has yet been able to recover the device once the eMMC goes.
It's indeed not a Development thread whatsoever, but I've answered you in the correct thread. Since you have triangle icon with exclamation mark, as people here didn't put attention, you're in the stock recovery, and eMMC failures most likely don't apply, it's a "normal" error.

When I originally responded to this thread, the OP had not yet posted his screenshot in the other thread, so I didn't know the phone was not rooted and that the cache errors were occurring in stock recovery, not ClockworkMod.
No offense meant whatsoever, my apologies if it sounded something I didn't mean. If I didn't start reading with the other thread - I probably wouldn't put attention to that detail either.
So does this mean i have a chance to fix my 400 buck brick

No, not at all. I was just explaining what I said so I didn't sound like a dummy. My first response only made sense if the phone was rooted, but I didn't find out until later that it was stock.
My vibrant is stuck on a boot loop, i was in the middle of installing ics and now it is in a boot loop. What can i do, if you want i can post of video of this boot loop for any advice.

Just because you didn't care to read ANY of the stickies around... I'll make sure you do, i'll give you instructions but lets see if you can go back a page and click the stickies to learn how to do all of this:
you will need to get into download mode, and odin - this is the safest and recommended route
if you want to take a bit of a risk you can try to go into recovery and flash the ROM you were in before - this can lead to more bootloops/brick
here is the video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwNzHqezAuU&feature=youtu.be
If only there was a guide that explained what to do when you get a bootloop while installing ICS. Hmmm. (Hint: see my sig).
If that doesn't work, rider's is the way to go.
Edit:: saw that you posted your video. That is a fast ass bootloop. Hit your thanks button by accident. Anyways try pulling your battery and booting into recovery and reflashing ICS again over itself. Did you wipe and factory reset?
i am a dumbass that followed a youtube video tutorial congratulations to me(pissed >(, i went straight from eclair to ics. wopdee do. I got odin in a ".rar" file and cant open it, but i prob have the wrong odin then right?
Not sure about your Odin file but check my guide for clear instructions. Need to go from 2.1 to CM7 to ICS flavor.
Alright i am lost and pissed? what should i do now, (i did my touchpad just fine to ics) to let you know that i am not a complete n00b about this, but the vibrant is not liking me...
ok, now that i've seen the video this is not any normal BOOT LOOP.
What exactly did you do to get this? Which flashing procedures did you look at?
Can you at all get into recovery/download mode?* most important question*
Do you have Froyo Bootloaders or GB bootloaders? (if you don't know what these are and have not messed with bootloaders you are on Froyo.)
I have just read what the recovery says through the video
It pretty much says that it is trying to flash ICS PASSION, but it cannot because your sdcard is either a) wiped b) not mounted c) the ICS PASSION file is corrupted and/or ics passion has been deleted somehow.
-after reading some latest posts from you, i'm sorry for making you feel like a dumbass but you did not read the instructions, mainly the stickies, and did not follow the instructions on how to get to ICS from eclair. That is why. Many do not and I prefer not to give any help at all to people who can't help themselves, but I understand your situation and i'll try to help. Sorry for offending you if I did, its just that some people need to be treated that way so they open their eyes and start reading around.
i understand that, but i did a battery pull and the samsung vibrant is still doing the same thing, when i hold power and volume down it stays at the "vibrant" thing but that is it, i can do anything else but watch it boot loop.
okay, i did a wipe on my sd card before installing, let me try to find the youtube guide
here is the guide that i followed, i just went from step three onward because it was rooted but nothing else

Rider, see if you can help him out. My boy just woke up. Let me get him back to sleep and ill be back after these messages.
PS I just PM'd him the CM7 Rom.
thanks, i hope someone can help me out.

Okay..... so after watching that guide. I have never seen ANYONE using that method, mainly because he didn't flash ANY kind of CM7 kernel etc.
Most of his instructions were right, but he just did something on his phone that seemed unusual, but i guess worked for him...

no i cant get into recovery mode
i did not mess with any bootloaders
i wiped, unmounted as in not plugged in then yes, i installed zip from phone unmounted
Dude that video is wack. He pirates one version of CWR but once it boots up is a completely different version. Check out the numbers on top. The edits are terrible. Cuts out some pretty huge points. Plus he starts out with Passion beta 1 on his settings screen before he edits back to show you how to do it, but ends up with RC1.
so am i screwed? if i am than thanks for trying to help me though.
No you are not screwed. Odin back to stock 2.1 and then follow the instructions. Don't sweat getting Gingerbread bootloaders for now. Get your phone in download mode.
You probably won't know this but even if you phone doesn't show download mode on its screen, you want that yellow COM box to light up in Odin. Once you see that, profit.

First read the post above this and try to get odin to light up yellow, if it does, no JIG needed, odin and you should be good. If that does not happen, then you will need a JIG.
Since you cannot get into recovery or download mode, I would try a JIG before claiming that your phone is a brick.
does the odin and stock rom from the video that i used work? or where should i get the odin and stock rom this time without effing up?
Where i Saïd had all bricks madeba New one fast
Il black with New install
Si if a poderator Can change thé title in liké After all bricks i plan to install twrp
wantntoninstall aosp safest way possible wih guide????
Are you writing with your toes? Nobody can help you, because no one understands what you are trying to say.
What other guide do you need?
Unlock bootloader,
make a backup if you need,
turn on usb debugging in developer options,
reboot to fastboot,
install twrp (official one is checked by many users), reboot to recovery,
factory reset,
format data,
Reboot recovery,
flash ROM, flash gapps, flash magisk,
reboot to system
And chill dude, you act weird - stop answering to yourself, just wait
Besides there are plenty tutorials for your issue, just read
