Hi
I'm not totally new to rooting but obviously messed up this time.
The bottom line is I get the splash screen and then black - nothing.
I'm pretty sure I can recover it but have no idea how.
Any help would be greatly appreciated for my 2 day old Sam Galaxy s2 (T Mob)
EDIT* I can get into clock Mod
Install Darkside Superwipe/Cache Wipe if you have any way to get them on your SD card:

then install a ROM that works from the Android Development section. If you don't have any way to get the files on your SD card, follow this guide to return back to stock with Odin:

Also, I'm not sure which service you have, but you can substitute the file in step one of that guide with the one here for ICS if you have T-Mo or Telus:

Good luck and let me know if I need to clarify anything.
Thank you so very much, not just for the advice but for the speed you answered, I really appreciate it, thank you.

If the phone won't connect to USB storage simply remove the sd card if you have an adapter and plug into your PC and transfer that way.

Yes. But not all computers have readers. If you have one though, that is the best thing you can do.
I posted this in dev. In hopes someone can help. I have micro usb card and in my sgs3. I the powered at home went out and the phone drained to empty. Now the phone and others keep saying in needs to be formatted. I was able to view the files in clockwork recovery; but that's it. I just want the pics back of my children. I assume it's the mbr. Searched on how to fix. I came up with nothing. Any help is appreciated. I thanks in advance. This is an awesome community.

You probably have a bad sd card that could be the problem so you might be able to plug into a laptop or a sd card reader and check the files there.

OP I understand your need to fix the issues you have at hand...but I will ask you to respect the Forum Rules on posting, Thank You.
Tried on a mac and a windows pc and says the same.... drive needs to be formatted. tried recovery software. Nada. Its there though. CWM sees it in recovery.
Hello everyone,
I've searched around the forums but have yet to come across anyone with my exact set of problems.
Phone is a Samsung t999v on the Wind network.
I believe the problem started when a restore was done from a back up with no system information. TWRP tells me there is no OS on the phone.
As there isn't an OS zip file on the hard drive I cannot flash from internal card.
Odin 3.04 fails to add tar file of stock rom after repeated attempts.
drivers will not load with G s3 toolkit allowing phone to be recognized.
Connecting the phone to PC while in TWRP or even in download mode and the PC (Windows 7 ultimate wink wink) will show in devices as a modem but doesn't show up in "my computer". Drivers failed to load is the message after connecting the phone.
Last working OS was the latest AOKP build two.
I hoping someone can help me out. I do feel that this information is probably on here somewhere but I've searched with no luck.
I really trying to get an OS onto this phone and hope I haven't screw it up for a friend of mine. These forums have helped do some good works with my phone and phones of my friends that I guess I ended up thinking I knew more than I did. I should have stock with clockworkr which didn't have the option to back up without system. safer for a dummy.
I appreciate any and all comments.

Did you don't download the drivers from Samsung website?

Yes I can download them from the website but at times the device is still not recognized. For some reason this happens with all my Samsung products. My PC often time does not recognize them. It started months ago with my 10.1 Tab and them my i727 and this t999v. I have to contect the usb and disconnect several time before they'll connect even changing ports. But now they don't connect at all.
Since you have twrp, why don't you just flash a ROM?

I would love to but how do I get the ROM on to the phone? The phone is not being recognized by computer. I have an sd car but my other samsung phone isn't recognized by the pc either.
Uninstall the drivers you have installed (the Samsung ones) and uninstall Kies if you have that installed.
Install the drivers from my signature. They are an older version. I use them because all of the newer ones do exactly what you are describing. The PC won't see the device, etc.
If all else fails buy a card reader. One of the 10+ in 1 sd card readers. Probably should have one of those anyway; just a thought.

Thanks for the advise. I'm going to go grab a micro sd reader now, hopefully. The drivers from your signature didn't fail to install as well. Can anyone think of what the source of the issue is. My drivers failing to install is happening on both of my PC's. I didn't try to install the older drivers on my second pc however.

You can download the ROM on another phone and transfer it to an SD card, after that you can swap it to the one with no os and flash it

The card reader fixed it. Thanks everyone for helping me out. No more lurking for me.
P.S
If anyone has any additional insight into my driver issues I'm all ears.
I have the same problem with my phone being recognized. I will sit there and plug and unplug the cable into the same usb port repeatedly, and eventually it'll be recognized.

Did the drivers fail to install from the installation package or when you plugged the device in after that installation? Also, are you in MTP or PTP mode?

Follow ALL the steps in order EXACTLY.
You will see it works for you. It has for every other person that I worked on their machines for...
If it does not, you did something wrong in following the steps.
if you do it exactly, it WILL work!
Good Luck!

It says MTP mode failed so I guess that's the mode. Both have happened but usually the fail happens after I plug in the device.

Sometimes peoples use port locate on the front panel of their PC.... Always use the usb on the back...... Thoses on the motherboard.
If it's not your case.... Try to switch port..

I followed all the steps exactly and the problem still persists. KIES fails at installing drivers and same happens when I connect the phone. The only place I can there being an error was that I replaced and copied the files in Windows INF as the new files had the same names as the old ones. As for that everything else I followed the steps exactly with no luck.

Might be worth a shot but it doesn't seem likely that it's a cable issue. The cable is effectively new and PC does recognize that I'm connecting a device.

What recovery are you using to try and read the SD card?
I'm new to android, tried search, unable to solve myself
Buddy was able to get my exfat 64gb sandisk to read on my phone
I flash newest update for Paranoid and the phone and PC cannot read the card anymore. <-- Doesn't show up
I'm wondering if anyone knows how to fix?
I made a backup back to 3.55 PA so it's reading the card just fine again but it doesn't read my card on any other (AOSP?)ROM.
Paranoid Android v3.55
baseband ma7
Any help welcomed, not sure if you guys require any other info, let me know
Aosp is not compatible with exfat. It's a Microsoft patented format. Samsung has deals with Microsoft and is allowed to use it in touch wiz. However stock android cannot. You can either format it to fat32 or go back to touchwiz

But my card is working on Paranoid?? isn't it aosp?
phone can recognize my card just fine right now. same with pc
Sorry I don't know much about android

I would still try backing up the contents of your card and formatting it to fat32 and see how that does.. I had to do this with my 64 gig card as some kernels don't read exfat.. Hope it helps bud.. Good luck..
From my rat infested note ii
Hello
I'm having a problem getting my G2 to recognize the SIM card. I just did a glass/digitizer/LCD/casing replacement and everything else is working no problems. I put the card in my old phone and no problems with the card. Looking into the card reader all the pins seem to be intact. You can see the marks on the SIM card chip from the pins. The device is rooted. My next step is to do a backup and reflash the factory ROM. I can't really see this being the problem though...
Any other ideas?
