Delete all Motorola Drivers and then reinstall them. May want to do a restart on your PC after all that before attempting to install any ROM.

You might also need to put your phone in development mode:
settings -> Applications -> Development -> USB debugging (should be checked)

I'm having similiar troubles, if you can help me it would be greatly appreciated
here's a video i made of whats going on with the phone.
youtube. /watch?v=Iw4iAxuCAl0

i don't know how i messed it up, i was just doing stuff in CWM and when i tried rebooting my phone, it was just stuck at the samsung screen. it didn't actually show the boot animation, just the part that says samsung in white letters. when i try to apply sdcard:update.zip i get the following:
# MANUAL MODE #
update.zip gone
E:Can't mount /dev/block/vold/179:9
(No such file or directory)
E:Can't mount SDCARD:bplib_delta_for_test.bin

Download the hacked param.lfs for the fascinate, and flash it with heimdall... Had the same error, and that worked for me...

im going to try it in a sec, but just two questions. one, isn't this just to change your boot logo? and do i need the continuum pit.pit file?

Yes, it does give the ability to change the boot logo... But when doing it, i noticed that after flashing, the stock recovery does this weird thing where it wipes everything, even when normally it won't... after that, it worked again...... Just know you will loose your data But whatev's
and no, not necessarily..
If that doesn't work, which is probably won't, then reflash the stock recovery, then try the cwm v4 adryn recovery, then try the stock kernel, and then the system image, all in Odin... In that order
oh, and cobitts15... Your dumb... always do a nandroid backup, even if its something simple...
and you are using the wrong Odin... try doing a wipe from within the stock recovery, and if that doesn't work, then download the RIGHT ODIN and flash that file... then go through the steps easily found within the development thread and get cwm working...

can i use heimdall instead of odin? i have a mac

Try whatever he said first, then try what i said...
And yeah, sure... Heimdall it up... Just remember to put things in the right places, and if the files are .tar'd up (which some are) then extract them with 7-zip.. You will get an error sometimes, just ignore it....

Define "doing stuff". That could be anything, like constantly tapping the volume button scrolling through one screen, or playing with the mounts and formatting options. The more detail you can give about what you were doing, the easier it will be to solve the problem.

What ODIN should I be using? Is there any way to flash it back to stock factory rom? I really didn't want any mods/roms, just wanted my Google search
Thanks again.

Okay so I have an update, I got the phone working and calling again. I was finally able to flash it with stock kernal and system files using the proper version of Odin (thank you trailblazer101) in this thread.

Only problem now is that my 3g or wireless doesn't work, any ideas to fix this?

can you go to settings, about phone, and tell me what is says for baseband?

si400.0.6v.dl17

Hmm... I would've thought that was going to be blank....
Well, all I can say is to try flashing the clean rom in cwm, and do a user wipe...
And it wouldn't hurt to first try to reactivate... Go to dialer and type in *228 then when you hear the lady's options choose 1...
Try that first xD

I tried to do the re-activate thing, still nothing.
I'm getting a replacement handset sent to me for free but I wanna try and see if I can fix this before I send it back just for experience sake so at this point if I brick it trying new things I don't care because I got a new phone.
So if anyone has any experimental ideas let me know

I had the same thing happen to me a month ago, but it hung on the verizon screen instead of the samsung screen. Seems our stock dumps don't contain the information to do DNS resolving. If you notice, the WiFi and 3G are both out, because you can't get DNS to work properly. I feel like if we bindiff the dumps with the actual phone we could get an idea of where we can't get, but i guess our problem is actually accessing the part we aren't getting.

[Q] I'm an idgit, and I REALLY need some help.

Ok, here's the deal. I was turned on to heimdall by our beloved Trailblazer101, so I tried to flash a rom via that. Something got borked in it, and now i have no download mode(when i try to boot into dl mode, either via vol down or cwm, it takes me right back to stock recovery), and I'm getting error
E:can't mount dev/block/st111 (invalid arguement) in stock recovery, and
E: Can't mount dev/block/st111 (File still exists)
E: Can't mount recovery/log
E: Can't open recovery/log
in CWM.
I can still flash successfully, but flashing kernel and a known good rom has no effect.
I'm thinking, even though I never did anything with the bootloaders, and it never got tp factory.rfs before heimdall crashed, there might have been something that got screwed up in the boot.
If anyone has any ideas, I'd appreciate it. Maybe one of the experts could find a way to get something in a flashable zip?
OK, i do have adb in cwm... so I can push via adb. As soon as I figure out what to push, where

and you really asked this in the wrong section...

I have the cure. Will post in 1 hour.

Thanks.... I've got the error issues resolved. Were you having issues with samsung logo no coming up, and it kicking you straight into stock recovery? DId this help that? That is my current issue.

No, I haven't had that issue yet but if you flash the Odin package from that link with the samsung PIT file (i4000) at the same time (make sure repartition is checked ONLY works w that Ron) it should resolve any/all issues.

Have you renamed or changed anything in the backup??
Try to restore advance....it may helps you.

No, advance restore won't help. Wipe data and cache then flash a custom rom rather than reverting to stock again.

I didn't say that you would download a firmware. I clearly said "FLASH A CUSTOM ROM".

No! Don't do that! In my experience, flashing custom roms after something bad happens always saves my phone. Just do what you want sir.

[Root ICS/JB] Universal Root for Any ROM Without Flashing Kernel.

Good news! Chainfire answered my email and he said that it is fine that i keep doing my job using his SuperSU! So i hope that his future "SuperSU updates" are not blocked and be unzipable.
I want to say that SuperSU is not opensourced anymore, tried to get in contact with chainfire again but no answers.. so I am not allowed to add busybox to his job and redistribute anymore, and i will NOT try to brake his .zip copyrights with others softwares, stop asking. For now, this project is closed, maybe there´s a different way in the future.
I saw a script like this around here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746794) but has never been updated again, so I made a script (based on Phil3759 and Chainfire Script, Credits to them) with an updated version of SuperSU and this is the result!
It Root any phone in any ROM using the SuperSU 1.86 from Chainfire and Busybox 1.20.2 from Linus Yang.Only.
I actually did this script to me and my friends. I'm just sharing. I'll keep it updated with Chainfire and Phil3759 releases, need it or not (If you don´t like the superuser that comes with Phil'z kernel and you want to go to SuperSU again, just flash this ).
Chainfire recommends that: "If you just upgraded to Android 4.3, you need to manually re-root, updating the app will not suffice."
You just have to put this in the mini SD card and flash it as an Update in recovery mode then.. its ROOTED!
(If you have CWM and is going to flash this for any reason, you can copy the file to the internal memory.)
To get in recovery mode turn your phone off, now press Power Button + Volume Up + Center Button for a while.
Send your feedback!
Credits to :
- Phil3759, specially this thread.
- Chainfire
First try "signed" file, If you have "Signature Verification error" try "NewSIGNED" version, and please let me know which one worked better with you! so future updates will be signed with the most efficient way!
Changelog:
27/12/2013 - Updated SuperSU to v1.86 - Updated with Chainfire script
06/09/2013 - Updated SuperSU to v1.60 - Now works better on JB 4.3]
01/09/2013 - Updated SuperSU to v1.55
23/08/2013 - Fixed certificate that some cases was getting "signature verification failed" message while updating from stock recovery.
31/07/2013 - Just updated to SuperSU v1.51

signature verification failed......

Hi,
I need to root my stock JB rom but I have two questions.
1. Is this the easiest and more effective way to root JB based roms?
2. Will it install latest CWM recovery permanently ?

Hi!
Yes, this is the easiest way to root JB, but this does NOT install CWM recovery.
To have CWM Recovery installed permanently you will have to flash a supported Kernel, but you will have to do a little more research to learn how to flash a kernel.
If you really need a kernel with a CWM Recovery i suggest you to use PhilZ kernels, here is the link to his kernel thread. :good::good:
Good luck!

Hello Danpamio,

Try it! Then give me your feedback, i specially used it on all S2 i rooted..

Did not work on "Swipe MTV Slash" (MTK MT6577, Android 4.1.2).
Tried both signed and newsigned. The update terminates with aborted message.

So what i did. I tried both zip but it got aborted then i enabled signature verification and it installed, first i tried the one with new sign it worked and restarted the phone. But i dont see any su app on my device or anything else. I tried to download su but i do not have root. So i tried the other zip
it also installed without any error and restarted device but still no root or su app.Am I missing something. I tried it on a Toughshield R500+ with 4.1.2.
Thanks
