OK, I seem to be having a hell of an issue with my note 2. I rooted it about a week ago and installed TWRP, a couple days ago I decided to try a new rom. It booted up and everything seed fine except that I would keep getting some type of out of service error, so I decided to try a different rom, SwampMonster. I installed it though the TWRP (obviously) and it was successful, at least so TWRP said anyways. So Upon first boot it seemed to be booting fine with the Orange circle and after about 20 seconds it stops and the screen went black. As I have seen this plenty of times before I let it sit for over five minutes. Also when the Orange circle disappeared the computer beeped to indicate that it had been disconnected. Now I can only get into recovery and kies will not connect. I also cannot access TWRP.. can anyone give my a bit of advice. I was thinking of using a rom that I can install with oden but I can only find zip file based roms. Thanks in advance. Oh also, ODIN does make a connection

This is the first time I've messed with this phone I've flashed many different models in the passed but this is the only one that is giving me issues and the worst part is that its not mine so any hell i will greatly appreciate it.
Here is what i did read what ever i can to get more accustomed to this phone. and searched everywhere to help me figure out what i can do.
So i flashed the unlocker. Coke 2.31
after i did that i flashed nfsfan's 1.5 rom using usb cable.
no i cant get into the operating system at all it hangs at the vzw splash screen.
Is there a way to get this phone back to normal? i cannot connect thru activesync and when i tried to reflash using sd card it shows the loading screen for a split secon then goes back to the bootloader.
Please help its my bros phone i need it up and running asap.
Thank you

Just thought that I would post what happened to my phone and the steps that eventually recovered it in case it helps somebody else:
My phone was stuck with "No Radio" on the boot loader screen and the SPL as "SPL-2.31.CoKe", but none of the 3.x ROMs would flash properly that I tried. So here are the steps that eventually recovered it (mostly...):
1.) I installed the ROM above from the tri-color screen (power+camera+reset). I still had no radio, but it was letting me past this and booting up to WM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=357762
2.) I then re-flashed the 2.31.CoKe boot loader (not sure if this step is necessary but listing what worked...)
3.) I tried to install RUU_Vogue_VZW_WWE_3.14.605.1_Radio_3.37.78_Ship.exe but it failed at 10% restarting to RUUNBH screen and the installer gave me Error [290]: Invalid Command
4.) I then tried to install the latest sprint ROM straight from the HTC site:_Touch by HTC (Sprint)_RUU_PPST_Vogue_SPRINT_WWE_3.03.651.4_2_Radio_3.42.30_AM_NV_2.04_Ship this looked like it was going to fail at the same part the Verizon rom did as it rebooted at 10% to RUUNBH screen, but the Sprint installer did something (I heard the computer lose and gain connection multiple times) and eventually it went right back and continued on from 11% and finished successfully.
5.) Rebooted and I had a radio now! Rather then risking trying to install the Verizon ROM again I went straight to the custom ROM I had originally started out with: NFSFAN 6.5 V6 which is working fine for me, except the GPS which is what started out my adventure of the last 3 days...
Just a note: for all flashes except the final one I simply waited till it was at the "Tap the screen..." stage till flashing. I never let any ROM but the final one run it's customization.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The above method works on a Vogue that is stuck on the bootloader screen with no radio.
Or if you get a rom to install and it stops at a windows screen that says no radio.
the only difference i tried was i didn't use the HTC Official Sprint rom, as i could not find it.
I used this rom.
RUU_Vogue_4350_ALLTEL_WWE_3.10.671.1_RS3.42.30_NV2.02_PRL30031_SHIP.exe
I let all customizations run on the last rom update.
I would greatly appreciate any help!
Two days ago my phone was having problems updating themes. I was rooted with
Clockwork 2.5.05 for the longest time but when the update for 2.5.1 was pushed I didn't think twice and I updated. Now I couldn't restore or flash because recovery would hang at MD5 Sums. After two days of nonstop attempts and fails I decided I would just backup everything on my computer and unroot, then reroot fresh.
So I unrooted my phone and thought everything would be fine. Nope, my phone was reset back to 2.1update1. Now Unrevoked wasn't working when I tried to root.
Now I found this page
http://androidforums.com/incredible...root-your-incredible-whatever-its-status.html
and followed and did step 2. That installed succesfully, but now I couldn't find a working to the May update. Luckily I found a link on the forums here and was able to install.
This may be where I went wrong but I accidentally flashed step 5 before step 4. But either way both step 4 and 5 installed without a hitch.
Now step 6 wouldn't work. It would error out at Update 7 or something along those lines.
Now I'm stuck with a phone with the Unrevoked splash screen(I like it, I just can't take it in to a verizon store and get a new phone under warranty because clearly I was messing with it), I think 2.2, and I can't put it into USB mode though my computer recognizes it under Device Manager. It hangs whenever I try to pull down the status bar.
On top of that I can't access any wireless network, both wifi and verizons, and
i can't get passed the activation screen because of that.
Reseting from the bootloader doesn't fix it, factory reseting from recovery doesn't fix it(Verizons built in recovery, step 5 uninstalled clockwork).
I am very lost
I think I unwillingly traded one of my nine lives to the devil.
My phone, has been fixed.
By a complete blunder, or at least I think so, my phone has been corrected.
I got tired of the constant reboots and "System crashes" that would ail me before I even got to the Phone Activation screen I thought I would try and activate it even though I had a X where the reception bars are.
To my absolute astonishment after a minute or two pause my phone is dialed through and begins the *228 update!(Later today at work my friend suggested that the 228 number works like an emergency number and dials on whatever network is available.)
My phone reboots and I have access to the home screen! I still can't pull down the status bar and have X bars but this is better than nothing! Feeling headstrong I open up Revoked and try rooting
It works!...sort of
It goes through the full process and when I get to the home screen I'm on a stock 2.2 device! Oddly no root however
I boot to clockwork and install su-2.3.4-ef and payload-update.
And now it works somehow! S-on is back as well. I just got back from work and have successfully rooted! I really hope this is a Karma cash in
Hello. First post here, want to say thank you to everyone that works hard on these images and boards, you all do a great job.
Here's my issue, and I'll try to be as specific as I can. I'm semi-new to all this but I had someone helping me that knows a lot more than I.
Recently, I got an HTC Inspire HD (Same thing as the Desire HD) on the AT&T network. It was a freebie, so I decided to flash some custom stuff on it.
Currently, my backup image is ClockwordMods, and the main OS, I first tried Cynogenmod's unofficial 11 version. When that failed, we removed it and attempted Xperia4.4.2-beta-2 with OTA-2.0.1-for-Beta-2 and ota-2.0.2-for-Beta-2. I used philz custom touch interface which works beautifully. I followed the directions to a T. wiped the phone for a new image, wiped all the cache (even under advanced as it told me), and flashed in the new OS, rebooted, flashed in OTA 1, reboot, flashed in OTA 2, reboot. But it hangs on the HTC screen. Now, it's not bricked, as I can still access the menu.
here is what is getting me. I loaded on an image called PD98IMG found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1248608
It rebooted, but it hung at Parsing for 20 minutes. So, after spending 12 hours trying to remove the battery case (Whoever invented this phone can die, and more like 3 minutes, but still a pain in the butt) I popped the battery, rebooted and mounted the SD card and removed the PD file. However, when i got into the bootloader, it would still look for this file! So I put it back on, and now it hangs again at Parsing. So this morning I bought a mini-SD adaptor, slapped it in the PC and removed the PD file again, redownloaded it, and attempted it again. This time it took, it parsed for about 2 seconds and seemed to be fine. So now, I rebooted the phone, and let it sit on the HTC screen for about 15 minutes (5 is norm from what i'm told, 10 is long, I figured 15 was safe), and nothing. It still hangs. I'm going to attempt another flash and put Cynogenmod 11 back on and see if it could be a bad download, but this is where I'm stuck at. Any help would be appreciated. Hopefully this was enough detail.
Edit: Ok, I put cm-11-20140609-UNOFFICIAL on from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2533007, i wiped data, cache, etc etc, everything, and still hung on the HTC screen. Not quite sure what's going on.
Where to start...
First, as a disclaimer, I may use language or terms that sound noobish. I have rooted and run custom ROMs on several devices in the past, however generally when I get a ROM I like I stick with it, so I'm not constantly tinkering. I've done my best to search and find solutions so please go easy on me.
17 days ago I was running stock 4.3 on my SGNII when the battery died. Upon charging I found I was stuck in bootloop and had a bad /efs mount. I searched and searched and spent around 15 hours trying this and that but to no avail. I finally threw my hands in the air and got ahold of Josh at mobiletechvideos and he was able to fix the efs mount issue. However, he left me in factory mode which required me to root to get out of, and once I did this I was unable to activate data on my carrier (Ting). I was so happy to have my phone "back" though that I used it like this for 4 or 5 days. I could get on wifi and I could call and send text messages. I had been off the grid so this felt like something I'd fix fully later.
Well I kept reading and found "fix" after "fix", flashed this and that and still no dice. FINALLY, last night, I found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2086769 which helped immensely. I was able to get TWRP flashed by unchecking the "auto-reboot" option in Odin and pulling the battery after the update took, and via TWRP I was able to install the ROM. I booted up, the device activated, I was running 4.1.2, I made and received some calls, the birds were chirping, the air was sweet...
I had struggled for so long and I had finally achieved success! Then, for seemingly no reason at all, I accepted an OTA update which bricked my Note2. Devastation.
The current state of things...
* Cannot get past the initial "Samsung Galaxy Note 2" screen
* Cannot boot into recovery
* I CAN get into dl mode,
* but, I CANNOT successfully flash anything. TWRP will flash like it took, but upon reboot I'm not able to boot into it. I'm also able to flash a ROM but it fails when it gets to sbin, and upon rebooting I'm greeted by the screen "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
When I try to use Kies it doesn't find the device. I've installed all of the most recent drivers and I'm running Kies as administrator. I select Tools > Emergency Firmware Recovery, THEN connect my device as instructed.
I'm at the apex of frustration. I beg thee to help!!
I have roughly the same situation. Was rooted and on an MK4 rom, battery ran down super fast yesterday and when charged, only get splash screen and slowly flashing blue light. I can get into Philz recovery but no matter what I try, no dice. Also can get into DL mode, but haven't been able to get anywhere. What the heck happened?
Well i bought another phone because of this problem of unknown baseband and 0 for everything in settings which didnt allow me to connect to sprint. Now when that happen it put me in safe mode . and i couldn't find a fix for months i ended up getting a lg g2 and let my note 2 collect dust. Well I'm using my note 2 and its up in running . my partition was messed up . if you have this issue which it sound like i can help. My phone was running fine then rebooted on its own and rebooted on safe mode with no signal

Hi everyone,
today I woke up and as usual i turned on my Gnex GSM (that has TWRP 2.8.0.0 and PA 4.6 beta 3 release1) and after a few minutes it started rebooting. i tried to remove battery at first but nothing happened; every time I put in the battery it starts, ask me for PIN, seems everything ok but reboots again.
I tried to enter in recovery mode to do a factory reset and even if TWRP says successful wipe nothing happens because when i reboot everything is like before. Itried to change recovery from TWRP to CWM but I can't even do that it "stucks" with TWRP. Fortunately I made a backup recently so I don't mind losing everything but if everyone has a solution please tell me because I don't know what to do!!
Another thing that compared in the log of TWRP during wipes was some strange ( for me, I'm not a developer) errors like "E: enable to stat '/data/media/.....'
If anyone can help I'll appreciate a lot!!! :laugh::laugh::laugh:
Thanks all!!
Same thing happened to me too....
Everything was working butter smooth when **** hit the fan.
I own GSM Gnex, rooted with stock 4.3 with Xposed installed. Custom recovery was TWRP
One fine day I was sitting with a friend in an restaurant when my phone suddenly started rebooting after reaching the homescreen. Mind you I can unlock my phone but after a couple of seconds, it would reboot
For two days, I did everything I could, used Wugs NRT, did a factory reset using TWRP, used ODIN, Flashed stock using toolkit and did that again manually using ADB. Nothing happened.
It says 'successful' when I flash using NRT, but nothing really changes and it freezes halfway while using ODIN and 'FAIL' error shows up.
After two days, I gave it to the shop from where I bought the device and its fourth day today but he still isnt able to repair my phone.
Mind you, I can access TWRP and all the functions, even factory reset but nothing happens.
At first I thought it might be moisture but it wasnt the case. I think it has to be an hardware issue
