I think I bricked my NS

I was flashing CM7. This is what I did:
Rooted, ClockworkMod v3.0.0.5 from Rom Manager.
From recovery did a BackUp (seems useless because it doesn't do anything.)
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe Cache partition
Install zip from sdcard - selected cm7 - got a Status Error 7
Now the phone won't boot, stays on the Google screen, I can get into the recovery though.
Any ideas? I am downloading the Stock 2.3.3 image.
Thanks!

restore your backup.

I tried doing that from ClockworkMod, gave me an error, it was a ridiculously small file, doesn't seem like a backup.
Even the stock gives me a Status Error 7.
Any ideas?

you didnt brick, just download a a new rom, sounds like it was a bad download.. if the phone shows a screen it isnt bricked...

This is what I get. For both Stock 2.3.3 and CM7. I've tried multiple times.

right did you re download it and copy it back to the phone or just going off the rom you downloaded already? if so worst case shouldnt odin work?

I'm downloading it again. Should I rename it to update.zip? Odin, that's the software right?

I think your problem is because you are using the clockwork mod for I9020, where as for rogers you should be using clockwork for i9023 -- at least this was my case, I have i9020a rogers
you can get it from this link 2nd file.
after using this one you shouldn't be getting "E: can't mount cache" and you shall be able to repeat rooting/flashing steps.

I was feeling so, either the ROM or the recovery. I'm just flashing the recovery, thanks for your help.
Also, how do I manually install ClockworkMod?

What is your computer OS? do you have android sdk?
In general everything you need is in this post

nah its fine. After the update its just showing how much wasted space touchwiz from samsung really takes up. The only thing i had a problem with is after my update it lost my games. So it said i had 3gb usable space but didnt recognize my games were still there. Root your phone and get titanium backup. I delete some stock apps and I now have 9.5gb available

the reason behind this was to make my phone back to 100% stock in case of warranty needs, after factory odin install i did a factory reset as well
i am not concerned about my space, just the fact that it says 16gb of total space, while most other phones only show 8.8, is this something that will void warranty?

Mine shows this
So I also show a loss of the 8GB. But I knew this all along and is why I bought the 32GB version. So why yours shows the full 16GB is a guess for me. Maybe it was something with the newest update. You on MF3?

My att s4 did the same thing, showed I think it was 9.8gb free then I flashed the stock software back via Odin and it changed to 16gb, not sure why.

Oneplus 2 having screen issue. Help!

Hi,
My OPT has deveoped these white spots all over the screen. I have tried wiping the device several times and also tried installing a different OS and the problem still persists. Do you think it's a h/w issue? When i boot into TWRP these spots don't appear so I think it's a software issue. Can anyone suggest methods to fix this? I have attached some screenshots

If it were hardware, we wouldn't be able to see it through screenshots. I suggest you reflash OxygenOS (dirty flash, no need to wipe your data) and see if that fixes it.

Tried that as well, When I flash a new OS does it change the drivers for the display?

I tried that as well. I wasn't able to find a 2.0.2 so I installed 2.0.1 and updated OTA to 2.0.2 Yes it is un rooted. Tried installing the CM12.1 by Temasek and still the same issue.

I suggest setting up a remote session with the Customer Support. I know it's a pain in the ass to communicate with them, but they've got the images and can reflash those.

XDA is a developers forum/site. Not an end-user forum/site.
People are expected to search for the info the need first.
So google your issue, if that not works google howto get the right logs.
If that also doesn't succeed, write down what you have done to avoid the error.
Don't forget to put in all the needed specs, software versions and so on.
And do that in a proper post, preferably with good spelling, grammar and punctuation.
If done all that, help will be more helpful, plentiful and faster.

I have the same problem on my N900W8, probably you can fix it installing a 5.0 bootloader.

So I solved it by:
Using Odin 3.11.1
I have already tried Factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, flashed the latest stock Lolipop or older lollipop with ODin and nothing solved the problem.
So I tried to flash the latest stock lolipop with Odin and marking checked (Auto Reboot , F. Reset Time , Phone EFS clear, Phone Bootloader update).
I suspect that the Phone EFS clear did the trick. It's function is related to the modem and radio of the phone. And clearly the modem has a problem here.
I hope this will help anybody out there having this issue.
This problem happened after trying to flash lollipop using FlashFire app to reserve the root that I had in my previos Android KK 4.4.2.

Tab A Rebooting Like Hell.Need Custom Rom

My Tab A Sm-T355Y Is Rebooting Randomly While using.It has developed so it is unusable mostly.Please Develop a Custom ROM.Many other users are also facing the use issue.Downgrading does not solve the issue.

Reflashing the firmware up or down rarely solves crashing issues unless the system partition is corrupted.
Wiping the data partition should be you next call

This is the common issue of Samsung tablet: loose battery cables and no ROM can fix it.
You can use this glue to make it works better without loosing the connection. However, the glue is conductive, make sure wipe clean with alcohol. Otherwise, you will end with overheating due to trace between terminals. It should not have any residues between the top as well. A lousy job will cause overheating or shorted circuit.

You can buy it online from Ebay or Amazon

Or adjust it manually, like this. Squeeze as much as possible
This is not an opinion, I have done many times to fix this problem of rebooting or quick discharge, not only this tablet but others as well.
Unless the mainboard is defective, this solution should fix the reboot issue easily.
