adb problem [no adb remount or push]

deleted....

Honestly, sounds like you never truley bricked in past attempts.
However, if Camera + Power or Home + Power won't get you anywhere now, you're pretty much boned.
Post your info in Haykuro's "Lets fix that SPL" to help him along with hopefully figuring it out.

i can boot into the spl and into recovery mode, i am thinking of using busybox wget to download the HSPL i used before to the sdcard.
if nothing seems to work, i will post in that thread.

I can not stress enough that if you can get into recovery mode, you are not bricked.
After flashing the radio, then the SPL, did you then try to re-flash your ROM? The SPL update will repartition your internally memory requiring you to reinstall your ROM.

I tried pushing the ROM update.zip to the sdcard like i usually do, but i cant since it is a "read only filesystem." and trying to adb remount will give me the error give above

That's not totally suprising. You will need to get the ROM update.zip onto the SD card through some other means (USB reader, another G1, anyway you can).

Bricked phone, having trouble re-flashing "e - unknown file - zImage"

Yesterday I flashed my phone with Kyorarom, as it didn't boot (stuck on loading screen) I kept flashing with various firmwares, one crashed Odin and now I can't successfully flash.
I get a message: e - unknown file - 'zImage'
Might be useful if I could even boot into clockwork, but the key combination doesn't work on this phone the same as other, goes into download/upload mode instead.
So now whichever rom I try, it fails then boots with a G3 mod loading screen and gets nowhere. I haven't found any information as to what causes the above message.
Really want my phone usable again and I've run out of ideas what to do. If anyone can help me get this working, it would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

I think hillbeast has posted zerofill for g3 to wipe everything from tthe phone. Maybe you can pm him if you can't find it AFTER searching
EDIT: I think in one of his threads.

Oo, would it be possible to apply this even though I'm unable to flash? Not sure how to use zerofill, but I'll look into it thanks. Perhaps it was something to do with trying to apply a .img at some point for dual booting?
[Edit]
Couldn't find a thread by that user for zerofill.

Its in one of his threads. Flash it thru Odin one package. I can't post the link for it as I'm on my phone. Search in g3mod thread or kyorarom thread if I rmb correctly...

I tried the search on this form and Google, perhaps I'm searching the wrong thing "zero fill", "zerofill". Been unable to find any posts, especially threads devoted to this subject.

here's the one from hillbeast. good luck.

<1> e - unknown file - "cache.rfs"
Before I had issues, had unmounted all the filesystems in Clockwork to format them, do you know if these are saved?
I haven't been able to find the key combo to get into clockwork for this particular phone.
Things aren't looking good for me. :'(

cwm-vol up+vol down+ home key+ power button

Thankyou that helped.
In the end I just decided the Odin bundled with one of the more popular firmwares was not working properly, then downloaded v4.38 and flashing now works.
Thanks all for your time, if anyone ever has this issue the Google "Odin Multi Downloader v4.38.exe - 4shared.com". (Unsure if posting links to downloads is frowned upon)

[Q] Help! Can't flash back to 2.2

I watched this video on how to install Jelly Bean 4.1.1 and installed the software. I've been trying to go back to the original 2.2 Blur with T-Mobile. I've tried multiple times to flash the jordan sbf file. I flashed it and when it's done it tells me to manually power up my phone. My Defy is stuck doing boot loops. I have a standard Defy with green lenses. Please help me out.

you need to push down the volume button and go to stock recovery.from there wipe data+cache and it will start

Sorry

Can I please get some help?

Well, I fixed myself. Since no one wanted to help me any further.

Then dont be an *** and share what you needed to do, in case anybody else needs this information too.
Just imagine it would be you finding your solution.

Well, I'm not trying to be an ass. I was just struggling for almost two days on how to fix my Defy. I was stressed. I found a solution and I just got a little ticked off that more help wasn't available. I'm not tripping though.

I completely understand your issue, because I know this situation myself, see my issue with maps a few threads down in this forum.
Also please do not be offended, but instead please share your solution, so other people can profit from it, too.
I was trying to encourage you, forgive my wording

you can't use download mode but you can still enter recovery? that's pretty weird... are you sure you're trying correctly? are the drivers properly installed and stuff? if it still doesn't work, then go to this section of the forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/i9500-develop there you will find plenty of roms you can flash with CWM recovery

Hi mate,
Lets go step by step.....
If you can get into recovery you can get into download...
1. Press and hold Volume Down, Home and Power buttons at the same time.
2. Release the buttons when you get the warning message.
3. Now press Volume Up button to confirm.
after you are in download mode lets flash a stock rom back in you can follow this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265477
or go to sammobile and get the latest one from your country
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
same one you had or newer ,
Another option would be ....
Take external sd out of your phone and use any posible adapter or device so you can use you pc to place a custom rom in....now place it back in your phone and from cwm instal the custom rom...

Stop panicing. This is basic rom flashing.
Just flash a custom rom from within cwm.
