I've been reading and trying different things for hours, but I think it's time to ask for help. I was messing with the build.prop file (which I realize was dumb) and tried restoring a ROM through CWM. The restore failed because it can't load data or cache. I tried wiping data and cache, and that option fails too. I tried installing a different ROM, which also failed. I installed TWRP and tried all of the same things with the same results. I am able to access fastboot, and was able to clear data and cache through there but that didn't help. My drivers are installed correctly, but the device isn't recognized by ADB. I need to figure out what's causing the data and cache errors so that I can get a ROM loaded again. Hoping someone can please help me out...
Will someone please help me out?
Did you try
fastboot oem format

It looks like you was using CWMTouch by Hashcode which is known as cause of the corruption of eMMC's partition table. There is no solution right now; sorry dude.
Thanks for replying. I just saw another thread about the same issue. I guess I'll have to wait and hope someone can figure it out.
This thread can be closed - there are others open for the same issue in Q&A.
Keep an eye on hashcode's thread in the dev section. That's where the work on identifying the problem is taking place.

Hi, I'm a noob at messing with rooting or ROMs, I have a T-Mobile HTC One M8 that I rooted, it worked fine until 2 weeks later it started rebooting every few seconds, I went into TWRP Recovery and wiped the Dalvik Cache and the regular Cache, it worked fine for a few days then started rebooting every minute or so so I attempted to wipe both the Dalvick Cache and the regular Cache again thinking it would solve the problem once more. I went into Advanced Wipe and wiped Dalvik Cache, Cache, Data, Internal Storage and System...it was a noob mistake thinking that I just did a Factory Wipe. I'm not sure why I did that, but afterwards, I lost the OS to my phone because of it.
These are the Problems:
I have S-On
I didn't do a Backup of anything
I don't know how to find the CID (if needed to fix it)
I don't know how to fix the phone
I've attached a picture of what my bootloader shows for its information. Please can someone help me fix my mistake...I really want to learn how to fix this. Can someone please instruct me how to get my OS back? I want to be able to use this phone again.

Download a custom rom and adb push it to your internal storage and then flash it from recovery.
Same problem

Honestly there's a lot of people with no os on bootloader screen.
My os dissapears after unlock recovery s-off and custom Rom.
If your phone is tripping I would just relock and flash ruu in bootloader mode.
First I would verify its not a driver issue and make sure usb debugging is on. If u are on a custom Rom go to there superuser settings and make sure it's set to apps and adb. Then try again.

boot to recovery, sideload a rom. if use adb is to hard for you then download the toolkit and use that to sideload a rom.
I'm no genius on this stuff, but if I were you I'd throw a ROM on the external SD and wipe everything and flash it.
I'm curious why you were having problems in the first place...your phone shouldn't have been having problems like that. It sort of sounds like a kernel problem. Regardless, I wouldn't necessarily flash whatever ROM you were having problems with. If I were you, I'd grab one that tons of other people who are on your carrier are using. Definitely don't flash one that is newer--get something from a well established dev/group.
As long as you can get to TWRP or whatever custom recovery you have, you should be able to wipe & flash without having to use ADB. Not that using ADB is bad, but if you're new, it can be confusing. Let us know how it works out.
can you help?
i dont even have recovery on mine anymore.So, how can i even flash a new rom?

you might be able to get the phone in the boot-loader (power and volume key down key) and then via fastboot flash the twrp recovery and then push a backup to the phone and restore.

Use the toolkit available in the general? section and flash the 4.4.4 RUU. Should return you to complete stock.
Did you get it fixed

I just got done taking the PG1 update and things were working fine except TitaniumBackup had the issue with the writing to SD Card. So I did some research and thought that I could modify the
Code:
/system/etc/permissions/platform.xml
, however when I rebooted the phone, I started getting the dreaded "NetworkSystemProvider" and "Google Play Services" stopped errors every few seconds. I have put the file back the way it was, rebooted, cleared cache & dalvik, but still I get the error. I really do NOT want to factory reset if I can help it.
It's frustrating even more-so because I generally run TitaniumBackups nightly and even TWRP backups pretty regularly too. I just hadn't gotten to one of the later, and ironically I was trying to fix the damn SD card write issue so that I could in fact do my TBs!! #FML
This seems like it should be something fixable no? I do have root and TWRP. I just can't find a good site that explains how to do it. I also tried to run the TWRP 'fix permissions' button too to no avail.
Can I just re-ODIN the PG1 or something worse case? And then re-root? ... without a factory reset I mean, so I keep my data and settings as they are?
I really don't understand how things go so jacked up from just changing an .xml file (and putting it back the way it was)??
Please help! Thanks!
Did you make a backup before you started modifying?
Did you try wiping cache and rebooting? Did you have a backup of the file you modified to restore? Check name and permissions?
If neither of the above help, factory reset and Odin again. Make a backup right after TWRP in case this happens again. Marshmallow is tricky and petty sometimes, unlike the earlier Android OS versions.
What you need is a PG1 modified services.jar for custom ROM. Don't recall seeing one shared for PG1. But there is a custom ROM in development forum.

Got a little too cocky with my limited knowledge of messing with androids, decided I wanted some nifty new locking sounds for my phone. Replaced the Lock and Unlock ogg files and wiped the dalvik, as the guide I was following said to do. It also said to fix permissions, but that was a vague statement and is most likely causing my problems. Anyway, now I can't download anything from the browser. I've tried stock/FF/Chrome/Dolphin and a few others, none work. I tried using the Download all files app and got a download failed (disk failure) error code. Not too worried if I have to factory reset, but wanted to try here to see if anyone could help before I nuke it.
Try flashing a stock rom from sammobile.com using Odin. After flashing, boot into recovery and wipe cache only, reboot, and see if the phone is back to normal. If not, a factory reset may be the only solution.

If all else fails, then STOCK ROM IS YOUR KEY TO PHONEAGE! Either go here and click on the most active post which will ultimately send you over to SamMobile. Just remember... be sure to flash the correct model number as stock firmware might damage the phone even more by being careless about choosing something which is not correct. Always check twice before getting your flash on!

I think there is an option actually called "fix permissions" in TWRP recovery under "Advanced"
Good luck!
If your phone is running a stock ROM, reflash the same ROM with Odin, wipe cache but not data and you should not lose anything.
I have FB factory, flashed ROM's and nothing is sticking. Might be corrupt storage. I was wondering if there is a more thorough way to wipe/flash the phone so I can make a ROM/OS stick?
Have you tried a factory image with the -w as in wipe everything?

Fastboot format system, fastboot erase userdata, fastboot format cache. There was a guide somewhere someone had about clean flashing. I had an issue once but after totally wiping and a clean install of stock, I haven't had any issues since. Use the flash-all.exe to flash, idk if you flash your images separately, but flashing the zip as a whole through fastboot yielded better results for me. Also being sure that my adb.exe files were up to par. Also be sure to wipe both slots, as it might be slot b giving you problems. Google search should find you the right fastboot commands, I've forgot them off the top of my head. Of course if you're going to wipe you would need to back everything you need up.

Yes, my SDK is up to date, from Google site. Interesting about flash-all.exe.
Fastboot format system
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot format cache
These were the commands you have used?
Anyone have beta how to wipe both a and b??
Does anyone want to link me to clean flashing?

You need to go back to square one.. Asking questions like this lead me to believe you have absolutely no idea what you are doing and you need to leave things alone before further damaging your device...

OK folks. I want to apologize for my flooding of the forums attempting to repair my situation last week. Yes, I have been flashing for a long time without real complications. I haven't been on my ADHD meds for a while and that did not help me with the drama last week. Unfortunately my world like most of you is in my phone, I was panicked. Sorry about that.
Needless to say I needed other eyes on what I was doing for perspective sake. I went to my PC tech, luckily had personal flashing experiences with Android, Pixel even. We worked on it for about 6 hours in total. He couldn't get RR to work.
The issue was this after following the OP instructions. Once in the system I couldn't get the WiFi to connect with the phone, not being able to download whatever the phone was looking for. Google play services kept FC'ing. Google TTS kept FC'ing as well. I don't know if there is a fix or a forthcoming fix for this abnormal issue. I deleted data from the apps that were FC'ing and other Google that might be related. PS: not a RR issue I had this same issue with Benzo)
Unfortunately, we didn't save anything from the old RR setup because I couldn't be without a phone for another day. Any constructive thoughts would be welcomed.
I shall attempt to reinstall RR at some point to see if it works, or to get data to help the devs understand what might have happened or might had happened.
I am back on stock, not loving it that is for sure.

Sounds to me like you used the wrong GApps. Or maybe used the wrong TWRP, or tried installing TWRP when you should have just booted it. Something like that.

I wish I could say the wrong GAPPS, the version from the OP was used (others had issues as well), TWRP 3.2.0 again from the OP was installed per instructions. They were not. Not letting system boot up might have been the bigger issue. I shall never know.
Ok, so... This is a Galaxy S, 10.5". The T800. I'm running Resurrection OS: the Luis build or whatever. The one with the dog. I attempted to encrypt this thing with the built-in tool. From Settings. I tried and probably failed. I checked on my tablet a few hours later and found it stuck on the boot screen: spinny colors, all that. It never reached the end.
I rebooted into TWRP, and that worked fine. I checked to see if I could access the file manager, and I could. I could peer into various directories on the Data partition and see the files there. So I figure that's a good sign. I figured, I'll wipe the cache and the dalvik cache. That's good for what ails ya. No help. I found some recommendation about using TWRP to repair the data partition, so I tried that. No difference. I tried to boot into Safe Mood, but the key code didn't seem to make any difference either. No good.
So, any suggestions? There wasn't anything essential on there that couldn't reasonably be gotten back. I know I could just wipe... everything and start anew, but it would be a pain in the neck, pardon my French. I'd have to download and reinstall everything. If there's a quick way to get this thing back to normal without that hassle, I'd appreciate it.
If it failed,i fear your app data,information,etc might not work normal y any more?Just get to twrp,plug your usb and get your file,etc back.
Would it help if I provided a logcat?

Even if I have to just wipe and start over, I want to know what the heck was going on!
