Got a problem, need some help. I have a 10.1 P5113 and was trying to root it. After a failed root. I now get a partial screen and un responsive touch screen. It will only reboot. I can get into recovery but a full reset wont work. At this time I tried flashing back to stock and i get a failed firmware screen. Any help would be great.
Sounds like you rooted/flashed the wrong files. I can't help you but if i were you i would check that at first.

so i rooted my vibrant and was having issues with titanium back up constantly (like every 2 seconds) demanding su permissions. i decided to unroot and try to re-root but the phone now freezes at the galaxy S screen during bootup and eventually the screen goes black with only the 4 keys at the bottom lit.
i unrooted by using the "1-click root/unroot" app on the forums.
the rom was stock and the phone has never really been modified aside from being rooted and ryan's lag fix
thanks in advance
also---sorry for putting this in the wrong section, could a mod please move it to general? i wont make the mistake again
Not bricked. You will likely have to re-flash using ODIN. Search around and read up and you find out how to do it.
Which unroot app did you use?

that one....
i'm reading about odin now trying to figure out what to do, not really sure how this happened in the first place
prolly has to do with the lag fix and then you unrooting... but flashing back to stock through odin should fix all your problems and from what ive read and found out myself its almost imposible to brick this phone. but use odin and flash a stock rom or if you have access to clockwork try using the nandroid that someone posted here somewhere. another thing you can try is to root your phone again through stock recovery and that might fix your problems cause i think the lag fix has to have root to work and since you got rid of root and kept the lag fix you get stuck
I used odin and everything works now.
Thanks for the help!

hello everyone.
im new with iconia a501 because its my friend's.
we tryed to update it, but its stuck in bootloop.
update we installed is oficial ota 4.0.1.
everything looked fine untill it rebooted. then system ui crashed. and it keeps rebooting and crashing .
I dont know what to do. I really feel his pain in loss.
sd card is not working, wich is not hellping.
dont have cpuid, so cant flash.
no root or cwm installed or backup...
is there any possibility to revive?
or is there any specialist in uk, who could fix it?
I think I read all threads in xda foroms. and everything I could find in google.
can't apply any method found.
any ideas? or suggestions anyone?
any help is appreciated.
I'd be trying a full wipeto fix System.ui from crashing. If u can not boot, you'll need to factory data reset....reset pin + pwr+ lock switch, tab should vibrate then erase data and cache.
Also boot while holding volume up button...do u see a fastboot menu or "skrilax_cz bootloader" screen...just to see which bootloader is on the tab.
You say sd card won't work.....wot doesn't work..check both sets of drivers are installed. ...Acer and android ones.
Hopefully the data reset will get u going...If not there's still few things we can try.
You can get yr cpuid/sbk thru apx mode using ubuntu, there's a sticky in general forum.
Thank you very much I'll try everything tonight.

Just grab the odin mf9 stock tar. If your on mf9 bootloader. Takes 5 minutes and your phone will be back to stock mf9 but working.

Hello XDA
I have a "small" problem. My friend just gave me this g 900m galaxy s5 he can't get to boot up. He tried to root it and it went wrong. So I gave it a try. I got philpz touch recovery installed and tried to flash a stock rooted Rom on it. And then it booted to boot animation. And stuck at the animation. I tried to flash to stock rom with Odin. No luck there. So I tried to flash with pit still no luck. I got a system. Some error in Odin when I tried using that. I hope you guys have some ideas the can help us out. :/
in this case, you should use kies to recovery your phone. click on firmware upgrade and initialisation, follow the instructions and finger crossed it would work.
Didn't try that. I will try it out later. Thanks. I keep you updated.

Hi I rooted my brothers Verizon Samsung Note 3 which was on 4.4.2 NC4, Installed the safestrap recovery and have setup Hyperdrive on rom slot 1. My problem is when I try to access the stock rom slot it hangs at the Verizon logo. I've pulled the battery and same result time after time. I flashed a prerooted de-odexed 4.4.2 nc4 stock rom to the stock slot and it still hangs at the Verizon screen. Today I tried to do a factory wipe on the stock rom slot to see if I could flash another rom to it and it said it could not mount /system and /systemorig. Can anyone provide some info as to how I go about fixing this so he can have his stock rom back? Thank you.
Odin back to a stock ROM, non-rooted. If you want to, you'll have to start the root process from scratch.

That's what I figured the answer would be. I do have a 4.4.2 NC4 non rooted stock to flash. Thank you for your help.

One thing you might try first. I don't know about your initial problem getting stuck at the boot screen. But I tried the other day to do a complete wipe and wound up with the "unable to mount" errors. I had to go into the Mount screen in safestrap and uncheck all boxes, then recheck everything. For some reason, I had to click the System box several times to get the checkmark to show up. Might be worth a shot. Helped me avoid the hassle of having to odin back to anything
When I setup the 1st custom rom on the sd card I accidentally did a full wipe and after that I've been getting unable to mount errors like you stated. I will try that this weekend when I see him. Thanks again for the help and I'll report back with the results.

Clicked system for 10 minutes and the check mark will not show up.

Sorry to hear that. I wish I knew more about the error. Or the "mounting process" that seems to have failed. It was only by luck that I figured it out on mine. I was already downloading the files to odin my phone back and start over when I lucked out. Figured I would pass it along before you had to lose all you had done. But I'm not sure what else you can do at this point. Maybe someone else will chime in.
I was able to successfully recover from a "hang at the Verizon logo" soft-brick on my NC4 4.4.2 Note 3 by following the directions in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2483380 It seems like it might be worth a shot.
I tried flashing 4.4.2 NC4 non rooted and now it just hangs at the Verizon screen. When it boots up it still shows the custom logo under the Samsung Note III logo as well. What can i do or is it time to get a new phone? Thanks.

i'm having all the same issues you are... I cant even install new custom modified or non note 3 apks... you may have to factory reset one more time after ODIN.
I can't even get into recovery to factory reset it. We destroyed it. Lol. Just going to buy a new phone.

Replaced the phone but I'd still like to see if I can fix this one.
Does anyone have a prerooted 4.4.2 NC4 tar.md5 or other tar.md5 that I could flash in Odin? I have tried the stock 4.4.2 NC4 tar.md5 and it still just hangs at the Verizon screen and it just reboots when I try to enter recovery to factory wipe it. I have the 32g pit file already. Thanks.
