I have the installed the ROOTED ROM version from the stickies and all was working fine till now.
I wanted to change the ro.build.display.id from IMM76D.I747UCALEM to IMM76D.I747UCALG1 as i installed the kernel and baseband from the latest att release .
Now the phone doesnt go past the samsung screen and then becomes dark.
I tried the adb and was able to pull the build.prop but now i cant push it back as the system is not RW.
I tried free rw commands but no luck, please help. :crying:

Try rerooting with chainfire's CF-ROOT method. It will install supersu, cwm recovery and the su binary.

hve u tried odin back to stock, if u already did odin try again with an earlier version of the modem, see if that helps, first before doing anything as u will loose data and u already have lost data no way of retreaving that, try a factory reset within ure phone 3 times if that doesnt fix it, then odin back again it could be that somewhere down the line u might of had a corrupt file while going back to stock.
follow this steps under how to unroot

I rooted my phone by odin method . Flashing clockwork mod recovery over stock recovery . And somehow I was able to install Superuser.
But now when I try to reboot in recovery it takes me to stock recovery mode not custom recovery.
I tried both recovery and they work for a while and after some time they dont.
Why is this happening ?
Su is working fine and I m on UVLH2 .
Thanks in advance

Since you already have superuser. Why not install via Rom manager or install twrp
Recovery doesn't stick for some weird reason when flashing through Odin on that firmware

Thats weird...so you can reboot into custom recovery a few times and eventually it goes back to stock? Or can you only boot custom once then it reverts?
First, look for these files and if there, delete or rename them.
/system/recovery-from-boot.p
/system/etc/install-recovery.sh
Then reinstall recovery and see if it works now.
If theyre not there, good!....well maybe!
Have you tried any other method of installing recovery?
Try using my favorite tool, Mobile Odin.
Free lite version here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1347899
(Dont forget to download the flash kernel further down the page)
Or buy full version on play store.
Download twrp here:
http://d-h.st/pNQ
Rename to recovery.img
Open Mobile Odin and tap Recovery and select that file.
Do not wipe.
Tap and confirm Flash Firmware.
Let me know how that goes.

this has happened to me before....you are probably going to have to boot into download mode. Hopefully you have the samsung drivers loaded onto your pc. When you get odin booted up and it recognizes your device, click the .pdf button...that is the only button on odin you need to press!!!! When you are prompted for the file load the .tar file then click start....It may take 3-5 mins to finish it will reboot. You will now have to root again. Hope this helped.

Same problem here cannot wipe cache but I can install roms they just wont work properly I think its something with permissions....
Ok so here is how I fixed it. First I followed this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1513359 steps 1-8. Then I followed this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1481141 steps 1-7.

I know its a bit much but it should get you back up and running.

Doing this worked good. I did flash 3 different recovery versions before rerooting my phone I think the permissions were corrupt.

If you have the twrp u will have get back to stock recovery... most probably u'll have to:
Flash the chinafines stock rom from the original android dev thread, run the triangle away app to reset the modif counter, run the unroot from the super su app) & only after that to boot into stock recovery to reset the whole phone.... once thats done the phone is a virgin)

If you made a backupour stock rom after su setup and custom recovery then yes you can as long as you are on the same bootloader the stock rom was on. Just restore after a thorough full wipe and use the the triangle away tutorial from the point after you should have opined back to stock, installed custom recovery and su. But you should Odin back anyways because this is unfounded and gremlins don't like to be aborted. Just remember you want to send your phone in for warranty and you want to eliminate all modded softwares and Odin will eliminate the leftovers!
