First things first. I wasn't sure where to put this thread, so if it's in the wrong spot, could a mod please move it? Thanks

OKAY! So, as I promised, I'm trying to help you guys out with some custom ROMs and such. I have been working on a port of Paranoid Android 3.x, and have ran into a bump. I got the ROM to boot to the boot animation, but it won't go any further. The main problem is that I have no way of running adb, as I cannot boot into the phone to activate it. So what can I do? Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
Never mind. Researched and came to a conclusion. Mod can delete.

Hello.
I am a new owner of an epic 4g, which i have rooted.
As i am currently looking to install a custom ROM, I realized that the CWM on my phone is different from the one listed in the ROM that i want. (SyndicateROM Frozen is the one im looking at).
I currently have 3.0.1.4 (the one thats on ROM Manager) but it says on the page that i need 3.0.0.6 ... so i don't know how to do that.
On another note... which it is related to....
Right now, when i use Rom Manager and click "reboot into recovery" it brings me to a screen with orange script... and only my power button works. it works as something to select. but there is nothing that works in order to push enter...
This most recent time, i pulled out the battery.. and after replacing it and holding power to turn it on, it booted into a screen with green script this time. This time the buttons worked and i was able to go to reboot.
So i think something is wrong. Obviously i want a different CWM (unless you guys have a better suggestion) but i don't know how to do it.
any help would be greatly appreciated.. or links.
PS. like i said before, I want to do this in preparation for doing the syndicaterom frozen... so if you guys could give me any help, that would be greatly appreciated.
SORRY IF THIS IS SOMEWHERE ELSE. i looked but couldn't find anything with this exact problem so I thought i'd ask here. Much thanks
If you ran the one click root with cwm3.0.0.6 then just turn your phone off and hold volume down+camera+power and it should take you to cwm3.0.0.6 and that is what you need. Don't use rom manager for the epic. It doesn't work. Boot into recovery manually. If it doesn't take you to that version. Then you need to run the one click root.

Well, this noob really needs your help. I went to flash CM7 last night after hearing about how the stable release had been fixed - after clearing caches and all the other steps needed to be taken prior to a flash I applied CM7. Now i'm stuck in a boot loop and when i do a battery pull and try to enter hboot it just runs me back into the boot loop.
I was rooted (obvi) and running virtuous unity 3.0 before this - never had a problem with this before so i'm a bit freaked out.
Any help will be greatly appreciated and met with clicks of the "thanks" button.
Sorry in advance if this topic has been addressed, I tried my best for a couple of hours to find a thread where someone had the same issue as me but to no avail.
Many others are having problems similar to this, including myself. I suggest checking your md5 sum and making sure you don't have a bad download

If worse comes to worse I guess you could try to install a stock ruu.
Check the other thread about people have freezing, bootloops, etc. when flashing aosp roms. I posted a suggestion there.

Thank you everyone
Due to the help I received from you guys, i was able to get my phone up and running with nary a problem. Thank you, everyone who posted a reply and helped guide me to the answers I needed to get my phone in proper working condition. You guys are frickin' AWESOME!
I am glad it is working for you now.
Let me give you a little background.
Few days back, I rooted my phone. Then I used Titanium Backup to uninstall apps which I thought were not useful like LG TV, Email- should not have done that
Then the phone was somehow did not boot. I looked up internet and tried something- got worse: Emergency mode with yellow screen. Went ahead to a local phone repair shop and he exploited me well to hand me back the phone in working condition
NOW... the problem is camera does not work. It shows a black screen everytime I launch it. Going in Settings->Applications->Manage Applications->All , Camera shows 0 bytes !
Searching on internet I found that I should not have uninstalled the Email app.
Please share some ideas on how I can help myself here. Any help will be appreciated.
PS- I am using Ubuntu on my computer and Froyo.
Holy hell! I had the same problem a long time ago! (Except no uninstalling was involved) It forced my dad to buy me a new phone.

Try installing a custom rom, like cyanogenmod
There are multiple ROMs for the LGOME and they have been behaving as any other ROM for any other phone.

@op
download custom recovery then
boot you phone into fastboot by pressing vol up + call + power button then use
fastboot flash recovery /path/to/recovery.img
then
fasboot reboot
then download any custom rom that you want and flash that
it will solve your problem
ps: do a google search for more info on fastboot use

Cleaned thread.
OP, I would advise, as you ask questions like the one you posted, verify the information posted before you attempt anything. If someone says that if you install a custom ROM on your device, it'll brick; go to the DEV threads, and check out other peoples experiences. You should also spend a ton of time researching before you start messing with your device. MOST of the big trouble people get into is not reading and asking enough questions. If you want to root, find out how to do it, AND how to fix it if it breaks, before you flash a custom ROM, find out how to do it AND how to get back to stock if you need to. The more you learn, the less the chances are that you'll end up in trouble
Just my 2¢

I think I did that mistake earlier. Read something about rooting and went straight ahead to brick the phone. I am hoping to have a clearer understanding of things this time. Since I am newbie, it will take effort. But this forum has so many experts and people are willing to contribute- I am sure I will learn a lot in the company of you guys.
I will dive in the DEV threads as you adviced. Thank you so much guys You are all my Santa Claus
Probable solution for the my camera problem?

If I use this thread, would it fix my camera ? I am not sure HOW should I install though, but of all the things I have read around here, it seems this might help. Please give your views whether I should go with this
If yes, could you please point me some link with detailed instructions ( the post assumes I know the HOW part ) ?
If you are using Froyo, give a try on it. Follow carefully the steps to how flash a ROM. If you already has an recovery, life is easier. If not, search on net about it =D
Any guides for Ubuntu 12.10

To be honest, I was confused with people talking about Clockwork and Nandroid- and I was stupid enough to try not finding out So, No. There is no recovery but on the bright side, I will do that as the first thing from next time onwards
Hello new to the forums. I have been rattled once again by the s3. Finally a problem I haven't really found too many solutions to and plus don't want to increase my chance of completely destroying my phone. Now. I have a Virgin Mobile phone in the US. Was on 4.1.2 but to flash to cricket I was trying to downgrade down to 4.0.4 from JB to ICS. Pretty much during this process not doing my homework I used odin and put the phone in download mode and figured oh Sprints rom should work since SPH-L710 is the same model and completely being wrong. I have been searching around google because I am soft bricked. Here is my assumption of soft brick. When Odin finishes the screen goes red stating the recovery files cannot be found and it wont read my sd card. Still able to go to download mode but not reboot mode. Hence, Soft Brick. Been trying to get out and recently took off a sticker seeing C-Spire. Now I remember seeing this while I was reading my XDA forums so I figured why not. Found some youtube videos googled and fond J7 for C-Spire. So close, but the link didn't exist or something. So... My conclusion finally made an account and finally asking for help the correct way. Please provide links and comments to help me out here would love this s3 back on track. Hope I followed the rules. I did honestly search the forums one had c-spire, but link was dead. My luck man. Thanks in advance.
Wanted to also add. Maybe with this I wanted to for a while, but never had the clear instructions on this nor want to repeat the process of screwing up my phone AGAIN after fixing it. Any good ROMs for the s3 C-Spire SPH-L710? For Example, Would love to use that multi-window with anything and I tried pacman not loving the whole ics not using the home button preferably JB I think which is stock whatever is stock. I loved the XMT launcher and the whole PIE thing. Just let me know guys. Ahead Apologies for the noob questions if they are.
this help http://www.sxtpdevelopers.com/showthread.php?t=55
you should beable to flash that. then just let the phone update.
Still trying it out at the moment just downloading it, but if it does fix this and so on whats some good roms for the C-Spire or im presuming this does not ever fall in the catergory of sprint but cspire yes?

I don't have the c-spire, but once you flash the stock rom from the earlier post, you should be able to root and set yourself up with XMT and pie controls on the stock rom. They are stand alones and you can add them yourself, without looking for a custom rom for it.

Did not work first two times said it failed using odin 3.07 and that site you led me to. it says product mode SPH-L710. and has secure check fail sb11. Please help this is getting very frustrating.
So my stock, rooted boot animation was getting boring So, I saw a cool Iron Man JARVIS boot that I wanted on my SM-T800 but it was .ZIP and apparently Samsung only use QMG so I open Rom Tool Box, then went to Rom Extras and then Samsung and select to install Binarys for .ZIP instead of QMG - it rebooted and there was a black screen and just boot sound. I then placed the .zip files and rebooted and it was the same, black screen no image and just sound. So I tried to get my original boot screen back and tried to do the recover QMG option, only TWRP loads does something for 2 seconds I see red failed writing and my Tab reboots to nothing but a black screen and boot sound. I've tried multiple times and it never works. I've pasted my original Samsungboot.qmg back into /system/media (where I took it from) but it still don't work.
As is evident, I'm a complete noob, so really need some help here and I figured one of you good gentlemen would help me. I'll state it again, I'm a noob (or idiot for messing with what I don't know, whatever you want to call it) so some advice or help I can follow would be much appreciated. Thanks guys.
Make sure you set the permissions of the files to the same as the rest in that folder.
Also wipe cache and dalvik in twrp.
Ok done both of those and it's still just a black screen with boot sound on start up.
Thanks for the help so far man, I really appreciate it.

The easiest way to fix is to just reflash the stock rom then reroot.
Aw man. Was hoping to avoid that.
Where would I find the stock ROM?
Is it this that I need Ashyx? http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/49140/T800XXU1BOCC_T800BTU1BOC1_BTU/
UK version of the Galaxy Tab S WiFi model.

Why, it won't affect your personal data?
Are you UK Region?
I thought it would delete everything? Yes, I'm in the UK.
Thanks for the help man.
Ashyx, I just flash that file with Odin the same way I did when I used your Root tutorial right?
I's still be able to follow the below guide to gain root again, yes?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/development/root-cf-autoroot-twrp-t800-t3079488
Or could I use TWRP that installed with your guide to install the above file?
You can use Flashfire to install, it will root at the same time or just root afterwards with odin if you have already tripped Knox.
I've never used Flashfire, can't see any guides, would be more confortable with Odin Since I've used it before.
Would I need to install TWRP again? Would like to just follow your whole guife again, not much chance of me messing it up then. Yeah I've already trippes Knox, so not worried about that. Thanks for your help man.
In that case just install with odin and then run cf_autoroot.
Ok I'll do that. Thanks man.
Quick update, to say that it did indeed fix the error, so thanks Ashyx.
