I downloaded superwipe for my phone and ran it and it cleared my phone but the rom I put on the sd card is not showing up so I cant download it!
It is stuck on the black screen with just google on it help!!!
I downloaded a clockmod recovery from the rom manager before I did this but I have no idea how to fix this!!!
How about downloading a rom to your computer and transfer it to the sd card?
Its not showing up on my mac...
How can I get it to show up?

You are having exactly the same reaction i've had when i had my first bootloop on my HTC Desire, thanks for the laughs
Super Wipe cleans EVERYTHING, including your SDCARD. Dont worry, your phone is not bricked.
The easiest way for you to boot your phone is to flash a stock image with fastboot or CWM. Follow this great guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1392310
haha, Im freaking out
On that guide what part should I follow? I used it to gain root and unlock the boot loader but where on there am I actually going to be restoring it?
if there is a way I can send a .zip file to my phone then I can easily install it form my phone...If only you could remove the sd card!!
That guide seems to tell you how to flash everything...nothing how to restore it.

Super wipe lite does not wipe the virtual SD card. OP you probably have to flash stock images in fast boot, there is no restoring.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Please explain how to do this....
Found someone else did this and the guy who makes the rom posted this:
1. Change ROM name to rom.zip
adb shell
mount /data
exit
adb push rom.zip /data/media
Now reboot into recovery and flash ROM.
Problem is I have no real idea how to do all of this. If anyone could write up how to do it (im on a mac, but can use a pc if have too) then I would SERIOUSLY love them. You have to know the feeling of your brand new phone on day one not working
http://code.google.com/android/nexus/images.html
I believe you put this image on the root of your pc drive, either use adb or fast boot and push it in terminal.
can you explain how to use fastboot to do this? I need steps to follow since im new at android flashing...thank you!
you have to ADB push a rom to your phone.
Send it to the update directory and you can flash it with stock image.
Okay so how do I ADB push a rom?

Hi My Friends
How do I install drivers ChainFire on the JB ROM?
(Sorry for my Poor English)
I tried and it sent my gnex into an endless boot loop, stuck on google boot screen.I had to restore from nandroid backup to get my phone back to normal, works fine on ICS just not jellybean, they need to update the chainfire3d app for it to work on jb.
if your stuck on boot logo then boot into cwm and open adb shell on pc and execute
Code:
/system/lib/cf3d_uninstall.sh

Ok Friends
TNX
Solution
To uninstall it I installed ADB, I went to CWM and from console of ADB I executed this:
adb shell /system/lib/cf3d_uninstall.sh
After installing ADB and everything, i push the command but it just says 'NOT FOUND'
WHy?'
Thank you good sir, you just saved quite a lot of my time.

Make sure you're using the proper keys to enter the bootloader. It's volume up + volume down + power.

You're not likely to get much help in this forum, unfortunately, since we're Galaxy Nexus owners. Maybe someone will see this and be able to help, but you'd be more likely to find help in the S3 forum.
thanks a million
Thank you guys so much!
I though my phone was bricked for sure, i can;t express how grateful i am now, thank you all.
My phone is perfect condition now and i even kept all my data!
HTC M8 AT&T
I have been dealing with this all morning and I am about to blow my brains out.
I thought i was running twrp but was instead running CWM.
Previously had Cyanogen Mod working fine on the phone no issue. Just wanted android instead
Tried to install Android Revolution from zip. Boom done. Reboot
Encryption. Try all 10 passwords i EVER use a couple hundred times it seems.
Fail. So i go back to CWM and try to reset phone to factoy. Gives me error "unknown volume for path /sd-ext/
error mounting /sdcard/.android_secure!
Skipping Format
Data Wipe Complete
Boot up still asks for password try a hundred times again. Still nothing
Boot into fastboot to attempt to put TWRP on it. and no computer sees my phone in fastboot.
Any ideas how to save my phone?
Do you a nandroid backup? You can restore your phone and try one more time.
Tapatalked with my "refrigerator look" HTC one M8
Go me the noob. No nandroid.
Any other idea..
Do you get the ding when connecting the phone and are running a command prompt from the folder with fastboot binary and required files?
What response does 'fastboot devices' give?

Adb won't respond unless you sideload or boot Into os.
Check your usb cable, make sure it's the original cable and you have fastboot drivers installed.

If you don't hear the ding then you either have a cable problem or a driver problem. Just re-install the drivers and check the cable

From what I seen you going to need to format the sd. You can see if twrp will format it but if that don't work try stock recovery and do a factory reset in bootloader.

As said if you get fastboot working you can flash a custom recovery or stock. You can then download a stock nandroid back up from the stock backups thread then flash the required backup from custom recovery.
All explained in that thread.

Hold down the power button and the vol. up button for 20 seconds or so.
As soon as it goes dead, switch from vol. up to vol. down.
Fastboot is where you are now.

Hi,
I've really big problem and i hope that here i get sugestion...
1, I try flash new ROM to my phone. I copy ROM to "SD card" but in wrong version.
After this I into Flashtool get new Kernel and new ver. of TWRecovery. Then I go to recovery and start flashing as every time before...
2, But now I'm in bad sittuation. I can only get into recovery... When i want to go to bootloger, i can't. Every time when I go to bootloger from recovery, i'm back in recovery. Every time is phone reaction the same as I hold power up button+vol. up. And I'm only in recovery.
When I want transfer some ROM to phone, I can't. Cose when I Mount USB massstorage I see phone as "Elementary sys device". I have install ABD device drivers...
Changelog I can't get you, cose it's in "SD card"...
3, Please, Show me "the way" out of this sh*t... I use HTC HD2 few years, all time flashing. Now I use Xperia S for 3 yr. All time flashing. But now I'm in a wrong way ind can't get my phone to standby
Thank you for answers!

Yes, I'm in TWRP, exactly v.2.8.0.1, from topic of your ROM. Bud now I can't connect phone via ABD drivers. I try it via apps and two ways via Commans window.
I'm only in TWRP. I can't get to fastboot, I can't install ROM now, phone reaction is the same as I hold power up+vol up button.
I need one of two ways... 1,get phone connected with PC via fastboot to flash new kernel, boot.img and at least your ROM
2,get phone connected with PC via mass storage, to get some old ROM, flash it and get to fastboot...

Anyways, lets start from basic. Can You try un-installing and installing the fastboot drivers? Because I suspect that's why You are not able to enter into fastboot mode.

So You can't even go into bootloader now? That's weird and also makes this a bit complicated! Because You need to be able to go into bootloader mode to flash a new kernel which has recovery. Hope You are pressing only volume while connecting phone to PC. Drivers are fine as You were able to flash a kernel earlier. Which Kernel did You flash first? If You are able to go into bootloader, then flash this kernel via fastboot mode.
