[Q] CWM 6.0.1.4 soft bricked phone!! Help!! please

Here goes...
I updated to 6.0.1.4 and tried flashing CM October 10th nightly. I used darkside superwipe and darkside cache wipe then flashed the rom and rebooted. The phone got stuck in a boot loop so i let it set for about 15 minutes. After, I pulled the battery and booted into recovery. I attempted to flash again but the damn thing would simply freeze right at the start of the flash. Also, whenever I tried going "back" nothing would happen, just a blank screen with the CWM background. I'm at a complete loss at what to do. Any help would be amazing

Do not use dark side wipes on the new cwm6. they are outdated and not needed .

It happened to me before. This is what I did to restore the recovery.
1. Download cwm 5.0.2.7
2. Go to download mode. Connect usb to computer then plug into phone while holding volume buttons.
3. Use Odin 1.8.5 and flash the cwm file.
4. When you get your recovery back, restore rom from backup.
5. Upgrade to twrp for more stable flashing experience.

meh same thing happened
refer to fe1ixs's post but if u need to recover files like i did...when u reboot back to recovery 5.0.2.7, darkside cache wipe and then u should be able to boot to your homescreen, install goomanager, menu>install openrecoveryscript........
i pretty sure the reason for this bootloop is because ur not suppose to use darkside anything in 6.0.1.4.....cause they already fixed the wipe...but i recommend twrp for maximum stability

[Q] At&T Galaxy Note 2 stuck after root

Hi... I have an At&t Galaxy Note 2, I rooted it w Odin, It worked fine then I flashed a custom ROM and I guess it may not have been the right one and it would turn off every few minutes, I would turn it back on and it would just continue to turn off so I tried flashing a different ROM and that was it. It won't boot past the 'Samsung Galaxy Note ll" screen.. It just stays stuck there...
I looked on forums and tried different things suggested with no success...
I have tried flashing stock back with Odin but it stops at the 'Recovery' part in Odin and I've left it there for a good while but it doesn't go any further... I tried going through Kies and updating firmware and it goes through the process and it just sits there and doesn't re boot or anything...
Can anyone help? I would greatly appreciate any help...I am so stuck...
Thanks in advance.

Can you get into any recovery screens?

"E:Can't mount/cache/recover/command
E:failed to mount/efs (Invalid argument)
E:failed to mount/system (Invalid arguement)....

Do you have a nandroid backup? Have you tried installing twrp/Cwm via Odin?
Try that and then try to see if you can get into recovery mode.

Boot into recovery. Stock recovery, CWM, and TWRP, will all work. Wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache. Reboot, you should be golden.

Doesnt odining a complete stock image pretty much just flash over the recovery and everything, therefore shouldn't be necessary to do that. I could be wrong though.

Damn... Well if it doesn't boot, I really don't think they'll know you messed with it. You don't have a tell triangle do you?
You might be able to lie to the insurance and say a child did something to it...
If it doesn't work, then you have a very nice paper weight, which sucks..

Sometimes even in Odin you may have to do a factory reset after words to get it to boot had it happen all the time on epic touch... Had to Odin back to stock from cm because of the emmc brick error...
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Xparent BlueTapatalk 2

Well if you flash twrp with odin and have it not autoreboot you should be able ti boot into brand new twrp shouldnt you? I never really messed with the 4g touch when I had it. But when I had the galaxy nexus I had to do that a couple of times.

HELP! Stuck at Samsung Logo after flash!

Need your help guys/gals!
I have been using my GN2 since they came out and have pretty good experience flashing/trying different ROM's. This morning I tried to flash JellyThunder and flash showed as complete. When I did the reboot, now my phone is stuck at the Samsung Galaxy GN2 logo. I tried entering into recovery by using "volume up" + "power" and still a no-go. I have pulled the battery multiple times and same thing. (always stuck at logo).
Next I tried to use ODIN and it does recognize the phone through com port but when I try to flash new recovery it just sits there and hangs. No error message or nothing. Did I just brick my phone or what? Please, need your help!
Thanks,

Factory reset

Did you try it from another computer/laptop? That could possibly be the problem. Why Odin is not recognizing it. Also what version of Odin are you running using??
You can check http://www.sammobile.com
For the stock firmware you need. I hope you get this resolved!!

I am not trying to get technical but just reading your post you did volume up+power.
It should be volume up+power+home button. Try that =) Hope it helps.

(Q) Phone does not reboot after flashing

After I flashed a s pen mod (which allows u to change the hover pic and the sound) on my jedi xp15 my phone just stopped rebooting. After the flashing was done what happened was the i unclicked "reboot" so that it will not reboot because i had a few more to flash. But because i was stupid i forgotten to backup before flashing. So what happened was that i just factory reseted mine (this time backing it up) and it still wont reboot. What happens when i reboot is my reboot animation finishes and the screen just goes black and gets pretty warm. What can i do?? Please help me out here because this is a problem i've never had.....

Do battery pull. Reboot into recovery via 3 button method. Wipe cache/davlik cache. Fix permissions reboot. See if that works.

Worst case....you may need to flash an Odin stock build...
The risk of partition damage is higher when pushing files into the system after rom flashing...especially if you are unsure of the potential outcome or recovery...
A full rooted stock backup is considered mandatory for me..along with a stand alone EFS file backup also...
I would flash the rooted stock build...Then create your backups....then build your rom of choice....g

Actually I got it fixed now I just used advanced wipe on my twrp and checked system so I wiped my system and reflashed jedi xp15
