Repair your phone(PCC or SEUS)

The same thing happened to me. I tried to enable JIT and now the reboot keeps looping. I can't access xRecovery, and when I try to repair the system PC Companion says that no software available for my phone yet. (I don't really understand why it says yet.)
I'm a noob and I'm now panicking.
What should I do?

i tried repairing with SEUS but my phone just wont connect whenever it asks me to press the back button T_T

I managed to get back the 1.6 system to my phone with the flasher by bin4ry. It has started repairing at first.
Now I'm relieved.

Just Install SE Update Service and follow the steps. It will say that you allready have newest softeare but you just click install. wait for installation to finish.
unplug the phone and power the phone.
after 2 min, phone working.

same thing happened to me after i installed JiT
i do not know why and therefore i can not have Jit

i think i might know the answer
does jit fail on phones with a lot of sotftware installed?
on a fresh phone after a flash or a restore i think it always works

Reinstalling 2.1

I'm running 2.2 beta 4 if I want to go back to 2.1 can I just copy the 2.1 rom to sd card and install from Xrecovery?

Just connect to the pc and do a reinstall or repair with SEUS

I've just gone from Cyanogen 2.2.1 back to SE 2.1. I tried SEUS but it didn't provide a recovery option, it just said that there was no update available - I'm guessing because it didn't recognise the ROM.
I ended up using Flash Tool to get one of the SE ROMs on it.
However, if you have PC Companion installed, I think you can do a recovery on the phone regardless of what ROM you're on (it says there's no update but there's a link to 'recover phone' or something like that).

Me ended with the same stuff

nope, i tried that some days ago and pc companion stopped at start of flashing procedure and told me, that there is no firmware available for me. i was running beta4.
then i flashed an old xrecovery backup, that i made after my update to bb .54, and bingo, no problem repairing with pc companion...obviously nowadays the SE update sw doesn't like any other roms...

Its strange that this didn't work for you. I upgraded to 2.2 a few weeks ago, but the instructions I followed decided they wanted to leave out a step. It ended up being a pretty critical step and it really screwed up my phone. So much so that I couldnt even get into the phone anymore. As a last effort, I tried PC Companion to do a repair and it worked. Cleared everything off and went back to the stock 2.1.

Scrub question, when re-flashing the x10, does it wipe contents of the microSD or just internal memory?

Just internal =)

phone.apk force close

Almost every custom rom I flashed I will encounter "process com.android.phone stopped unexpectedly.Try again" when phone booted up. How can that happen? I already followed the instructions given before flashing a custom. I even flashed to latest version stock rom before flash to another custom rom.

Use English as a language,.. see the rules.
OP : its not a problem, I saw a thread here and he shared the stock apps, so download what you need and push using root explorer,
make sure to fix permissions.

Try fresh flashing latest stock using odin. Might work.
Tapatalked using my galaxy y

Odin
Flash Fresh Stock Rom Using Odin before flashing custom ROMs

Yes. I often encounter this kind of FC, and I was so dumb to think it was a hardware issue because even when I tried to restore my nandroid backup before having this FC still it appears. Not even Fix Permission can help.
I can't really say how I solved this but here's what I've done.
I made a backup of my sd card to my computer.
Format SD.
Partition SD.
Put back IMPORTANT FILES ONLY.
Done!
I think the problem is in the sd-ext.
QUESTION: Do you have a2sd script ?

Problems even after re-installing the firmware! [Note 2 N7100]

First of all i used CWM to root my phone flashed via odin. Then i accidently installed chainfire 3d's driver, it wasn't booting and was freezed so i re-installed the firmware. now everything works fine except the LED notifications, only when i restart it, the LED turns blue. doesn't lit up even while charging/missed calls etc. and alarm sound isn't working either (quiet odd), while call and other sound based notifications works perfectly fine!!
I searched and searched, but none has problems similar to me. Please suggest me to try something that'll work besides re-installing the firmware again. not sure if custom kernel will do or not :'(
btw i rooted it again with CWM, hoping i'd work, because it allows custom led lights to work, but it didn't.

Still no reply!
-_- still no reply! :crying:

Try using light manager app found in the play store

How did you reinstall firmware? Odin or cwm? Try odin and flash tar firmware. Copy first your data from mobile because this operation will wipe everything

i did try it, tar.md5 right? (1.4 gigs)? i flashed it using odin, then flashed CWM. and then all this is haappening

*#0*# on your key pad and use the diagnostics.
The LED should flash 3 primary colours before ending.
If one of the colours isn't working, then it's a hardware issue.

That was interesting thanks, but no, no hardware problems. any possible way i can fix this without formatting and all? i'd be grateful.

have you tried getting back to stock entirely? i mean even get back to the stock recovery. plus factory reset.
and then if you still need root, you might wanna try the ExynosAbuse option, it's the cleanest.

no i haven't, when i installed the clean stock firmware (md5 file), i still had those issues. i shouldn't have installed chainfire 3d, i was too hasty, i didn't read it's official thread, which mentioned it's only for ICS. Thanks, next time i'll use that to root. Also will titanium backup be of any help?

try flash stock by odin, then do a full wipe, if still no led, take to warrenty

It happens to me too... I usually cancel download and again try... If it doesn't work the third time ... Then i press download and restart my mobile... On completion of boot it usually starts downloading......
One more possibility is when play store is updating in background..(rare but still it does happen)

Solution
If you are facing network error while downloading an application, just switch to airplane mode and again get back to the same mode.
Also as you are using a custom ROM, there might be some issues with it. You can reflash gapps(google apps) and try to download again. If you still can't get access, flash stock ROM via Odin.
