hi, i'm new here and new to all of this. i tried to look around and couldn't find anything to help, so if it exists, i apologize for the repeat. anyway, i got the fascinate last week, rooted it, ran the lagfix, but saw i was still having problems and my phone was slow as hell and out of space. i ran the unlagfix and after i went to reboot my phone, it can't get past the verizon splash page. if it does, it's just blank. i tried rebooting again from recovery mode manually and nothing. please help!!
do i need to wipe the data/factory reset and start anew? does anyone have any suggestions? i'm kind of freaking out...
thanks!

Hi everyone, I tried to remove the lag fix but it said there was no space on my memory card. Then I tried to open some apps up, and they would all force close. I restarted the phone, and I am stuck at the galaxy s screen. Please help me make my phone work again!
i had the same thing i went into recovery mood up down power...etc wipe user and date cache, but now i dont get the tmobile jingle at power up
Which lag fix did you apply?
I had the same problem today when I tried to used lag fix but it was stuck at vibrant screen and keep rebooting. I tried to went into recovery mode and deleting user interface still didn't help. Finally I had to flash stock vibrant to get it working again.

solution is to get back to stock rom.. look in the development section on how to fix it.. this happen to me after installing lagfix.. i can not install any app as it is saying i do not have any space available...
Thanks for the help guys, restoring a nandroid back up seemed to do the trick.
I know you fixed it already but this might help others ....
1.) Which lag fix was it?
2.) If it was Voodoo it can take a long time to remove and it will sit at the boot logo.
3.) If you get impatient and reboot before the removal is complete, you may not have all your data copied over.
I have the same problem! The lag fix i have is the one from this video: youtube.com/watch?v=KY1YXrltIRE (cannot post link), how do i get back to stock rom? thanks in advance from a noob
Hey guys. I'm trying to figure out what's going wrong with my Transformer. I'm not experienced with Android development/ROM's so please bare with me.
Rooted my first Android device about a month ago. Made a stupid mistake placing the ROM I was planning to use on the external SD card & didn't backup the install I wiped. Recovered with an official Asus ROM & after about two hours fiddling around I managed to root & load my first ROM (Revolver, whoot!). Very pleased with myself!
Have been using the Revolver ROM for a month without any problems. No deep sleep etc, everything worked perfectly. Using the latest version of Clockworkmod, also no issues so far. Strange thing is that since last monday everytime I (re)boot the device it loads CWM instead of the Android OS. I can get back into Android bij holding volume down during boot & choose to cold boot. Not a big issue but very annoying & can't seem to find the fix.
Searched Google & XDA for a solution. Updated Revolver to 1.3.1 beta, also found the repack by Koush for CWM. Tried fixing permissions, clearing cache, clearing dalvik, wiping & starting over, etc. Everything I tried so far does not fix the CWM-loop I seem to be stuck in.
Would really appreciate some help, I'm probably looking in the wrong direction here. Thanks in advance.
Found something
Finally got out of the CWM loop, found a solution here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1622814&page=2
Strange thing is that after I flashed it with the fix CWM changed to the touch mod I recently installed but never seemed to work. If I understand correctly the fix only deleted the first few lines in the config where the boot in recovery flag should be.
Afterwards I factory wiped the unit & flashed it with a clean ROM. Currently re-installing my apps. I do not have a good feeling on this, tablet seems sluggish last couple of days & I can hear a soft click when the unit reboots. Same sort of click a laptop hdd would make.
Think it's dying on me...
Firstly I am new to this and want to apologize for my english since it is not my first language, so please go easy on me
I recently did my first ever rooting on my new N10 16GB using CF-Auto-Root and did not flash custom recovery. It all went fine and worked great until last night when I tried changing fonts using Font Installer. After installing a font and rebooting, the device wouldn't boot past the X-Logo.
Restarting didn't work and after reading other threads I entered Recovery and did the Data Wipe/Factory Reset, but still get stuck at the X.
I tried the Clear Cache option and have done Data Wipe/Factory Reset several times, with and without USB plugged into computer, without any results.
Also, I don't think I enabled USB Debugging after rooting, if this makes any difference right now.
I really don't know where to go from here and as this is as far as my experience goes in these things and not wanting to mess up the device completely, I now turn to you for advice, hoping my dear tablet is not beyond rescue already.
Please please help me out!
SOLVED! I used this guide doing a stock recovery and it's working again!
Keeping this post if it may help someone else =)

Hello,
I've got a problem with my gt-i9505.
I've managed to root the phone and install TWRP.
So i decided to install CM10.2 (21-08) and the right gapps for it.
Everything worked very good and I couldn't be happier.
All my apps were back and it was ready to use it!
I turned off the phone and went to sleep.
The next day i turned it on and it got stuck on the bootscreen (not the CM bootscreen, but the SAMSUNG GALAXY S4 bootscreen).
So I tried to do factory reset and install rom again, gapps again, afterwards again wipe dalvik and cache.
But i keep having the same problem. Right now after flashing the rom it doesn't even boot up the first time.
I also tried going back to 10.1, but same problem.
I don't know what to do, i just got my s4. Really hope i can fix it.
Luckily i can enter the recovery. But i didn't do a backup or anything.
Does anyone have any tips on how to get it working again?

Hi,
Look HERE
Put everything back to stock then, try again.
I found some 10.2 ROMS do not like rebooting,and just hang.
Remove the battery and try again normally worked.

I followed the instructions and succesfully installed the official stock rom for my device and region.
But it's still stuck at the samsung boot screen.
And now i can't boot into TWRP anymore either, is that correct?
After that I flashed with the .pit file. But still stuck on bootscreen.
Is there any other way to solve this problem?
idgaf about custom roms or CM10.2 anymore, i just want my phone to work.
Wether it's with custom or with stock firmware.
Really hope I didn't break my phone. :crying:
EDIT:
I wiped cache after flashing, but no data wipe/factory reset. That did the trick.
God i can't be happier my phone finally works again. Now i'm scared to flash a custom rom again. I think i need to install TWRP or CWM again too I'll just wait for now.
So recently (like 2 hours ago), my phone started acting like it wasn't on the cricket network anymore. I've rebooted. Taken things out and reinserted them. Nothing works. So I figured I would just hard reset my phone. So I get through the process of getting it to the recovery booting screen only to find out that something WON'T LET ME FACTORY RESET MY PHONE!!! I am frustrated beyond belief and I just want to be able to use my phone. Can anyone please please help me? I am afraid I have a virus or someone is trying to hack my device/already has

What do you mean it wont let you factory reset, what happens when you try it?
Sent from my Galaxy S5 using XDA Labs
Sounds like recovery might be corrupted if it doesn't let you into recovery
Or does it enter recovery? Need a bit more detail about what's actually happening, instead of "Something won't let it reset"
Flash a stock ROM back over the top to repair recovery/system etc and try resetting again
