I flashed a new sbf but forgot to wipe cache and data.
When i tried to start-up my phone, the boot animation kept repeating.
Also when i tried recharging, there was an "?".
Tried to wipe afterwards in stock recovery but i couldn't push the corner.
Found it:
Go in stock recovery (power+vol down). When warning sign appears press one of the buttom corner or if it dusn't work (my case) press both volume keys at the same time. Do both cache and data wipe.
Next go into bootloader (pull battery and put it back in while volume up or press power + vol up) and flash your sbf using RSD lite.
I will take everything from zero but I am not responsible if you brick your Defy.
WARNING!!! This rom can burn your flash.

I was trying to go back to stock ICS and cwm recovery. When I tried to go back, I was currently rooted, running twrp recovery and a custome rom (carbon). I followed this procedure:
The simple method to revert back to stock ICS from a custom ROM on an A100.
+++Locked bootloader, no custom recovery, no root. Full stock .014 rom. It will recieve OTA updates to latest Acer version.+++
Get Ready
1) Download this flashable Stock recovery zip, and place in your normal flashing location, - Thx 4 help pio
http://db.tt/VLmnMCzq
Also uploaded below
2) Download the Official .014 Stock ICS rom
The stock ICS zip from zeronull. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1611696
Here is a second link to it. http://ubuntuone.com/7DZtbNqZzOk7qsaQxNk99a - thx zleto
3) Rename the Stock ICS rom to "update.zip", no quotes (make sure you have "hide known file extensions" UNCHECKED, in the folder options). And place it on the root of your microSD card. This will allow you to see the file extension to verify that it is named properly.
Get it Done
1) Flash the Stock recovery zip with your custom recovery. Then wipe cache, davlik cache, and wipe data/factory reset.
2) Reboot to system.
3) Allow it to sit for 5 minutes or so.
4) Then Power off.
5) Update from the microSD card by holding down the power and volume rocker closest to the corner at the same time, until you see "erasing cache .".. ect, ect. The stock rom install should start by itself, dont touch anything, wait for it to reboot.
****** If it won't boot do a factory reset (with the hardware buttons, see below) and/or try to reflash the ics rom one more time. ******
Quote:
To perform a Factory Data Reset use the following steps:
1.Place the rotation lock switch in the up position (tablet held in portrait). Or to the left if held in landscape.
2.Press and hold the Volume down button, which is located farthest from the corner (it is volume up, if held in landscape).
3.With the Volume down button held, press and hold the Power button for 3 seconds then release it. Continue holding the Volume down button.
4.Once the tablet vibrates, switch the rotation lock on and off repeatedly while still holding the Volume down button.
5.Release the Volume down button and stop switching the rotation lock once the "Erasing Userdata..." message appears in the upper left corner of the screen
Now I get the android symbol with the red triangle, that stays for about a minute, then it reboots and stays on thye acer screen. When I did the steps and was going to reboot, I received a waring while in recovery sayiny that I dont have a op installed. I did it anyway, as posted and now I'm stuck, can anyone PLEASE help me.I tried doing a reset with steps 2 though 4 but while pressing the vol up and letting go of the power button, it does not vibrate.
Ok, I redownloaded the stock ICS from here http://ubuntuone.com/7DZtbNqZzOk7qsaQxNk99a. At the end of the download, a window popped up saying this may be a malicious file. (Idownloaded it on my pc). I remember it also said the same thing when I downloaded it the first time too. I turned off the tablet, took the sd card out, put in pc and transferred the file, pulled out from pc, inserted in tablet and turned it on, still same thing with android synbol and red triangle. I tried to do a factory reset by following the steps above. I got it to say erasing userdata, then this is what it says in red, unrecoverable bootloader (ox19000008) I have no idea what this means?? Can anyone help me out with getting this back to stock ICS and recovery?? What do I do next?? Thanks
Now, when I do the same procedure but instead use the vol up button (instead of the down button), it comes up bootloader, then the version number, then starting fastboot usb protocol. I have no idea what this means??
I just realized to late that Samsung Knox came along with the latest firmware XXUBMJ7....
Now, most of my apps doesnt work, I can not turn of Knox, and can not root to remove it through for example Titanium Backup.
I even tried to roll back to XXUAMJ1, but it didnt work.
Suggestions?

Probably, but I dont care about void or warranty. Just want it to work like it used to....
Not even Shazam works, or other simple apps.

From within the recovery installed here? recovery-clockwork-6.0.3.7
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2364980
Then it seems I must reinstall it because there is a warnings sign over the "Android robot" and it says manual mode.

I tried to reinstall/flash the twrp, but it is so hard to get into the recovery mode byholding home and volume up. Tried alsmost ten times now
and all that happens is that it boots normally... Crap phone!
That is very weird, I flashed my phone at least 15 times by now and never had an issue.
When should I hold down volume up and home button?
When Odin says PASS? When the screen goes black? When vibrate starts? When vibrate ends?
The procedure is as:
1.Copy the " S4Mini_RootKit_v1.zip" to your device SD card.
2.Turn off the phone.
3.Press and hold home, volume down and power. Download screen should appear.
4.Connect USB cable, and press volume up.
5.Start Odin, uncheck "F. Reset Time", and then click AP button.
6.Select "recovery-clockwork-6.0.3.7-serranoltexx.tar.md5" file that you previously extracted, and press Start button. The phone will reboot when finished.
7.After the phone resets (it vibrates) IMMEDIATELY hold volume up and home buttons to boot into recovery mode.
restart, and hold the home + up when the phone boots. I usually keep them presed from the moment I hit restart

I believe so too. I think I have tried at least 30 times no. Everything from before Odin says PASS! to just after the vibrate stops.
All I get is normal reboot and no recovery.
I really hope the smart guys in here find a fix.

Why Not?
I never stop on vibrate (never make this: After the phone resets (it vibrates) IMMEDIATELY... ), I always reboot after flash recovery.
To go to it , power off, then holder Home + Vol up + Power but when I see the yellow message "Set Warranty bit : Recovery" (or the old blue one msg) I pull out my finger from power but wait whit Home + Vol up pressed until recovery appear.
It work always for me. I don't understand.
Whit root I use the Quick Boot.

@ How To Reboot to Recovery mode
- Keep holding Vol down + power (Side key) - As soon as device warning screen appears, keep holding Vol Up - with USB Connected to PC is important
then flash KETAN Rom...
this is from my experience. so it will work
take care. staY safe...
Just got this phone, bootloader is already unlocked, but trying to figure out how to get TWRP + LineageOS on it. Do you HAVE to flash Dr. Ketan's ROM for all this to work? I keep trying to just flash TWRP with latest R firmware installed and it will boot to TWRP at first, but once I reboot to system it just gets stuck on Samsung logo and won't go past that
Hi,
If your Galaxy Note 10 Plus is stuck on the boot screen, there are a few things you can try to recover your device without losing data:
Boot into recovery mode: Press and hold the power button, volume down button, and Bixby button (if your device has one) until the Samsung logo appears. Then release the buttons and use the volume down button to navigate to "Recovery mode" and press the power button to select it.
Wipe the cache partition: Once in recovery mode, navigate to "Wipe cache partition" and select it. This will wipe the cache files on your device but will not delete any personal data.
Boot into safe mode: Press and hold the power button until the Samsung logo appears, then release the power button and press and hold the volume down button. Continue to hold the volume down button until the device finishes booting. When in safe mode, all third-party apps will be disabled, and you can determine if any of them are causing the issue.
If none of the above steps work, you may try factory resetting your device. However, this will erase all data on the device, so make sure to backup your important files before proceeding.
If none of the steps work, you may need to flash the stock firmware on your device. This process is more complex and requires technical knowledge.
It's recommended to seek help from a professional technician if you are not familiar with the process.
