I have a small problem i installed font installer from the market and now after uninstalling the keyboard is stuck on the font that was last installed by the app. I have gone through the root of my sd to find the apk from which the keyboard is installed and cannot for the life of me find it. I thought maybe if i could find it wiping cache and data on that apk would remove it. If there is anyone out there that may be able to help i would greatly appreciate it.
As seen in pic its only the keyboard. Also kote that swype keyboard and gingerbread keyboard are both the same as the system font for some reason its only this keyboard and that is it.

Flash your last back up from cwm?
Or try to install the app again and set it to the default font then uninstall it.
In the future use the built in flipfont.

Hey there everyone. Here is the story in list format.
- Got first Galaxy S2 (Tmobile)
- after a few days rooted the phone using odin
- uninstalled bloatware via titanium back up pro
- installed a few apps(fb, twitter, swift key x, mobli, two different font changers)
- everything was running smoothly until i actually installed a font and the app prompted for a reboot.
- i reboot and the booting process freezes at the bootloader logo (tried countless times)
- i enter recovery mode to wipe phone.
- wipe phone.
- same issue.
- i thought then that the phone had some sort of issue in itself.
- i take the phone to tmobile a few days later and tell em some bs.
- get my new phone.
- root it again same way.
- uninstall all the bloatware i want gone and install all the apps i want.
- again SAME thing happens when i install this font changing program.
the program downloads previews for 146ish fonts. you select one. it actually downloads it and reassigns the default font with the font you download and after a reboot it should work.
except i get a frozen bootloader screen. so this time around i am convinced of the app somehow messing with the bootloader settings (etc...)
soooo...i decide to flash "SGH-T989 UVKID // Insecure // Root // Busybox" by bubby323.
odin says its successful, but still same freezing issue at bootloader.
help please.
Your problem is with the ROM. Boot into recovery, mount USB, put the ROM on your SD card and flash it from recovery.
Also, stop using that app

i do not have an external sd card, so is there any other method? i can always go and purchase one tomorrow. there is no way for me to put the file onto the internal sd memory because windows never recognizes the phone because it never boots up.
and trust me, i learned my lesson....never downloading that program again.

There are drivers posted in the dev section, be sure to try and download them again.
Your phone's "/sdcard/" location is actually an internal SD card. So when you use CWM to mount the sdcard, it will mount both the internal, and external SD card if it can. So you should still be able to do it.
as you said i was able to mount and copy over the rom, but after i copied over the rom file, it does not show on the android cwm file menu. maybe if i restart the phone?ill try it now.
still no go the rom file is not showing, the drivers have been installed. i reinstalled them JUST in case.
maybe i'm doing something.
- i mount usb storage
- copy over rom tar files
- unmount and look for it in the apply update from sd card and install zip from sd card selections but both show no files.
alright well after a few hours of trying a million different things...the only thing that worked was eaglesblood rom via cwm mount. thanks romanb for helping.
So I installed the deodexed 4.2.2 ROM for my 5110 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2367839). It installed fine, and rebooted fine. But after getting everything set up the way I went into Xposed and switched on the modules I wanted, then went to reboot -- now my beloved Note 8 is stuck on at the SAMSUNG page after rebooting.
I'm ready to go back and restore 4.1.2, but I can't get TWRP to see the external SD card where the backups are stored.
Any help there?
Thanks in advance,

I thought the Xposed disabler was only for CW and wouldn't run under TWRP -- maybe I was wrong? Getting it on to the tablet when TWRP refuses to acknowledge the presence of an external SD card is a problem, though. But thanks anyway.
I solved the problem by simply reflashing the 4.2.2. (which happened to still be in internal memory) all over again. But it's obvious that Xposed or one of its modules doesn't play nice with the 4.2.2. Android release for the Note 8. I deleted Xposed and its modules from my tablet after I got access back. Too bad, it did add some nice useful functions, but I'm not taking any more chances with it.

You don't have to go that far, copy this file to your SD Card http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1619566&d=1361912360
(File from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574401)
And "install" the zip in your recovery, it will disable Xposed and your tab should fire up.

The problem is that TWRP refuses to acknowledge the presence of an external SD card, even though the choice is checked in the "Mount" menu of TWRP. Without that there is no way to get new files onto the tablet's internal storage. Even ADB won't work (Im guessing the tablet hangs before the usb port is activated, or whatever).
Luckily the 4.2.2 installation file was still in internal storage, so I just reflashed it and got around a very sticky situation, and then promptly got rid of Xposed and its associated modules. Shame, but I'm not taking any chances.
We really need a fixed version of TWRP that sees externalSD.

I found a workaround!!!
I booted into recovery and while TWRP was initializing I plugged in an OTG cable with a thumb drive connected. TWRP didn't see the OTG drive, but it DID see the external SD card all of a sudden.
Go figure.

Team,
I have been researching for hours and am quite confused on which avenue to take to recover my soft brick. Information overload:crying:
Here is what happened and I will provide as much info as I can so please bare with me. After OTA upgrading to 4.3 and rooting successfully using the CF Auto Root. I was attempting to get my wifi hotspot working again using the Wifi mod and mucked around and installed the wrong mod (Odexed MK4). This rendered me stuck at the glowing samsung screen and it goes no further. Ive tried to factory reset, wiped cache and rebooted several times. Boots fine into recovery and download mode.
So after hours of searching, reading (its 3:50am est) and testing solutions I am no closer to a fix than I was when I started. I am currently waiting on a stock rooted rom to download in an attempt to flash back to stock but its taking hours to download.
However I just noticed, as I am typing this thread, that I can no longer
1. Mount as an usb external drive in recovery (TWRP v 2.3.1.0) I have Samsung drivers installed (1.5.14.0) so I get the indicator sound from windows that I sees the phone.
2. If I attempt to manually browse through my files using the recovery there are no files inside my internal sdcard directories.
/sdcard There are three directories there
/0 /obb /TWRP and the only folder that has files inside is the TWRP folder.
Im floundering here. I cannot even mount and install files on the phone to even attempt to flash back to stock. Can I get some fresh angles ladies and gents? I am at a loss.

Good morning (not really, I assume, sorry). So where are you at? Not sure what you mean that you cannot install files on the phone... Can you get into download mode and your computer recognizes the phone? If yes, can you do what you started to say - odin stock rooted? Or... if you can get into a custom recovery but your internal sd card has been wiped, can you put a stock rooted ROM in zip format on an external sd card, put that sd card into your phone, and flash in custom recovery?

Here is the problem...the ROM I have is in zip format and based on what I have been reading I cannot install via Odin. Due to the fact that the phone refuses to mount as an external storage device I have no way of placing data on the the internal or external card. The only recourse I have now it to attempt to find an adapter to be able to mount this microsd card to my PC. I am out of town and have no idea where I could find one.....uggggh. Ill keep you posted.

Walmart. .. target. ... and most any office store you should be able to find one. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2538543 ... This thread gives you the stock unrooted rom in a flashable zip. To my knowledge no one has put out a stock rooted zip, but I will check around.

You always have the Factory Reset/Wipe Data option inside your Recovery. But if that doesnt work use your downoad mode and Reset in KIES. but whatever you do, now that you have upgraded to 4.3 DO NOT try and dowgrade. it will cause a hard brick.
You did the ota update which put KNOX on your phone which is bad especially if you have a warranty. There is currently no way to get rid of it. I read a while ago the peoples phones has been getting bricked because they were trying stuff.
Anyway the only option I guess you have is to use your computer and reset your phone using kies. It will flash your phone back to stock in download mode.

Thank you all so much for you help!
Congratulations
I am glad you were able to get use of your phone back. I wish I had seen this thread sooner. I was in exactly the same boat a couple of weeks ago, only mine lasted 3 days. I even bought a new GS4 when I thought my phone was dead. Took it back when someone finally helped me do what you did. It's a helpless feeling when you have been rooting and Romming for years safely. Sure seems like a sticky thread is in order for this specific issue. As you can see, I haven't got enough history for credibility on this forum since I rarely post. Oh well.
Hi everyone,
so awhile back I had messed up my phone trying to go from cyanogenmod back to a stock AT&T rom. Bricked it but was able to get it all running with debrick images/forum help. Phone is now on AT&T 4.4.2, boots without debrick, seems completely fixed. I had switched to another phone for awhile but switched back to the GS3 I fixed.
The problem i'm having is that it seems like nothing has access to internal storage. I first noticed with snapchat, I was able to recieve some snaps, but everytime I tried to send one it would fail and would fail to download stories. When I try to take a video with snapchat it says "there is a problem with your SD card."
Then I downloaded SwiftKey, it tells me it doesn't have access to download a language pack. ES File explorer also cannot create any new folders or anything on the internal storage, just says "operation failed." I tried a "Mount R/W" program but it did nothing. I have TeamWin recovery installed, I tried fixing permissions but nothing. Did a data wipe/factory reset but that did not help either. Changed system and "/" to R/W in ES file explorer.
The Camera is able to take pictures and save them to internal DCIM folder.
Any ideas? Want to start using this phone but every app is having problems!

This is what I installed on my phone...a stock rom from enewman17. I'll try posting in that thread but not sure what to do.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2788357
I ended up flashing the other Kernel that was in that thread. Fixed those issues.
i wanted to install new stock rom from here but fastboot wont install it so i went to twrp and tried to flash it from there but during flashing twrp just rebooted itself and saying installation wasnt sucessful, i figured this is due to S-On but prior to flashing it i did possibly the stupidest thing, i went to ADVANCED WIPE and wiped every option on the list(dalvik,system,data,internal storage,cache) except for micro sdcard ofcourse. i then went to FIX PERMISSIONS and stupidly select the ALSO FIX SELINUX CONTEXTS. when those done i then went and install another image which is on the sdcard that i downloaded from here E9pw_Android5.0_Sense70_E1.zip . the installation went well and rebooted itself and got to the homescreen and whatnot. but the troubles came when i tried to install apps from playstore and it gave me all kind of errors known to man, even going into file manager to access the internal storage gave me problem it says something along ACCESS IS DENIED or CANT ACESSS EMULATED OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. when i opened chrome to download something the browser just crashed because apparently it wont able to access the emulated storage. yeah i fcked up badly here. dont know whatelse to do.
see below of the files that i currently have in my external microsd card:

Got it fixed! by going to TWRP-->WIPE-->FORMAT DATA and reinstall the ROM. if anybody experiencing the same problem please do the same.
