So i did the ULVH1 update through ODIN, followed the instructions. Once i was on ODIN picked the file for it. Ran it at firt it said Boot! Then Pass! So phone trys to reset but i get stuck on the reboot screen! Did i just brick the phone? Im rooted and using a custom rom (jedi mind trick v7). I need help on this.
Oh onre more thing. When i was stuck on the reboot. I tried getting into CWM and it got me through. Aren't i suppose to be unrooted already once this update occured?
Reboot loop? If you can get into CWM, you can always wipe, flash, wipe cache to fix things. If you can get into CWM you're still ok.
Now the thing about unroot and recovery, there's sort of different things. You can be unrooted, but still have CWM. CWM just lets you flash new ROMs that aren't manufacturer certified, I believe. I forget the details. So booting into ICS you could be unrooted, but the recovery is still CWM/TWRP
You are much better off using TWRP then CWM.

Would you still use TWRP to flash roms that the OP recommends using CWM or CWM Touch?
I also understand NAND backups you made with CWM won't be restored successfully by TWRP?
So I got it to work. Im a noob on this stuff, so i wasnt sure if the file that XDA had was bad or not. I used a diff. one from phandroid.com. Went through ODIN and it went through with no problem. Lost root and CWM. Basically im back to stock. I eventually rooted again and CWM. But the funny part about it is that why do i still have my pics on the gallery? I thought this deletes everything? Like i said. Im a noob! lol. Everything seems working fine. Screen shots (went back the old way, instead of Power and Volume down.) Also, ISIS is that on google play? :good:
No flashing back to stock does not erase your internal storage.

I tried to flash rooted stock rom or stock rom, either will result me in stock in boot logo. Anyway for me to use odin to flash ccw or recovery so I can wipe before flash Odin?

you're the 2nd person with the same issue in the last 10 mins...i wonder wth is going on with the stock files or odin. I'll tell you the same thing I told another user ...If you used odin 3.0.7...trying using 3.0.4 instead. Another user did that and it worked...so hopefully you'll get the same results.

I tried using 3.0.4 and it did not work, however i was able to flash CWM through odin so now everything is wiped clean. Hopefully stock rom will go through this time.
Edit: yup, that did it. flashing CWM was so crucial.

SIMPLE FIX....
preform factory reset in recovery before (or after) flashing stock.
Stock odin flash does not flash or wipe data partition. and some files that you have in there become incompatible with older firmware and stop stock from booting.
NOTE!!!!! factory reset from STOCK recovery WILL WIPE SD CARD TOO!!!
CWM recovery factory reset WILL NOT wipe sd card... backup your pics and downloads!!!!

YESSSS! so i ended up geting it to work after flashing cwm and flashing stock rom that was still in bootloop but then i got a custome rom onto external sd card and loaded that and i got it working so ****ing happy been all day i've been thinking my phones ruined
I have unbricked this phone probably 15 times in the past day trying to just install a custom ROM.
I run through the unbricking process, get root, load the stock AT&T ROM, factory reset, and it boots just fine from there. However, after I load Clockwork Mod and try to load any custom ROMs at all, the phone will just bootloop forever. It also appears to remove the Clockwork Mod recovery image as well, since I no longer am able to get back into recovery after the flash of the new ROM.
I've scoured this forum for hours, and I'm at a complete loss. Any ideas?
P.S. I made a backup of my ROM before doing all of this using the latest version of Clockwork Mod, but was unable to restore it. It seems that the 6.x.x.x version of the recovery for this phone is busted in some way, it always reports that it can't access any of the root folders, even though the phone has been rooted. The 5.x.x.x versions don't seem to do this, but I still have issues flashing.

Is it possible that your hosts file needs modifying when installing the AT&T ROM? If the LG Support tool connects to LG's servers instead of your local http you set up, it will load the official ICS and completely wipe your phone to install that ROM... With my limited amount of knowledge, that's about all I could see if the process removes CWM Recovery.
Also, CWM 6.x is working fine for me, even manually flashed the touch recovery a few minutes ago, backed up my ROM and installed an updated ROM. No problems at all.

I don't know if anyone has tried the unbrick method with the new version of cwm but you might try twrp. When a similar version of cwm was in beta there were all sorts of issues. So maybe they haven't been fixed. Also are you installing cwm from GB? ICS has a locked boot loader so that might also be an issue.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1888910
Now I would start with the unbricking guide for a 16th time but follow the directions to install twrp instead of cwm. You might also find you like it better. Good luck.

I don't believe that the unbricking process would work if the hosts file was wrong, but I checked it again anyway, and it appears to be correct.
The AT&T ROM gets pushed via the abd shell after the unbrick and rooting process. The root appears to work, as the AT&T ROM that I push works fine, it's just not the ROM I want!

After the unbricking process (after I get through all the nonsense on the Korean ROM), the phone is running the GB AT&T ROM, from there I push the CWM recovery.img to the phone using the abd shell. All seems to be working perfectly up until I go to flash the custom ROM! I don't get any errors when I flash the .zip either.
Initially I had installed CWM 6.x.x.x using the ROM Manager application. That's before all this nonsense started, and the phone was on the stock (but rooted) AT&T ICS ROM, so I know that's why I "bricked" my phone the first time.
I'll give TWRP a shot, hopefully that will work.

Ok so we know it's not the boot loader issue of ICS after dozens if not hundreds of successful installs using the unbricking guide the only thing left is the new version of cwm. Hopefully twrp will do the trick for you. Has anyone out there successfully completed the unbricking guide with the new version of cwm?

I haven't tried the TWRP recovery a shot yet, since I haven't been home, but I figured it was worth pointing out that the CWM 5.x.x.x (can't remember exact version numbers right now) didn't work for me either. Every time I flashed a ROM, I'd end up with a boot loop on first boot, and then when I'd try to go back into recovery, I'd find that it wouldn't go back in there either.
It was basically acting like when I flashed the ROM that it overwrote the recovery partition, except no one else seems to have this same issue. Yet, if I didn't flash a ROM, I was able to go in and out of CWM recovery as often as I wanted.
Bah.

Can you clarify exactly what method you are using to flash the ROM? I just can't imagine a scenario where flashing a ROM would overwrite the recovery. What ROM are you flashing?
Also, please confirm what phone you have.

Sure, I may be using the wrong term (my first experiences with custom ROMs date back to Windows Mobile, so the terminology probably blends together), but I'm basically loading the .zip from the SD Card in CWM. I've tried both the CM9 P930 ROM and Paranoid Android CM10.
That was my thought too, I didn't think that the custom ROMs even had recovery images in them. I may be wrong in saying that it deletes CWM, but after the wipe and flash I am no longer able to access it.
I have the LG Nitro HD, and from what I can gather, that is the P930, correct? I hope the issue I'm having is as simple as I'm flashing for the wrong phone...
By the way, thank you all for your help and input, I really appreciate it!

You are correct, the Nitro is P930. And I'm sure this doesn't need pointing out, but when you download the ROM, make sure it's for P93x and not SU640. Most of the ROMS in the developer section have versions for both models.
Also, when you say you can't access CWM after flashing a ROM, how are you trying to access it? Holding Power+Volume down until the Factory Reset screen pops up? It still shows that screen even with CWM installed, but when you press the power button to perform the factory reset it SHOULD take you into CWM Recovery instead.

To access recovery, turn the device completely off. (If you're in a bootloop, pull battery or hold power button for ~20 seconds until screen stays off.) Then when phone is off, press and hold volume down and power buttons at the same time, not releasing until you see text asking if you want to factory reset. Press power button twice to confirm and you'll get to recovery.
Is this the method you're using to try to get to CWM?
My guess as to why you are getting bootloops is that you aren't wiping data first.
Yup, that's how I'm accessing CWM. After the flash, after I press the power button twice, I get something similar to a boot loop. A recovery boot loop, if you will.
Well, I've tried a couple ways now. I've tried using the "factory reset/wipe user data" menu item in CWM, and I've tried going into each partition and wiping them individually before flashing as well.
Just got home, I'll try flashing using the TWRP and let you guys know.

Good luck. Other possible things to try:
1) Check zip MD5 hash (or just redownload and replace) to make sure it's not corrupted.
2) Reformat entire SD card.
Interesting update:
I decided to give getting back into CWM recovery one more shot before I went through the process of re-unbricking again, and this time it managed to get in (for whatever reason).
So, I did a factory wipe, cleared dalvik cache, flashed the ParanoidAndroid ROM, backed out, did another factory wipe, and tried to reboot into the newly flashed ROM.
No luck. Boot looped, and didn't even get to the ROM animation. Following that, I had trouble getting back into the CWM recovery. Managed to try about 5 times and finally got in, however CWM stated:
Code:
CWM-based Recovery v5.0.2.7
E:Error in /cache/recovery/last_log
(Read-only file system)
So... my phone may have potentially unrooted it's self, somehow... Interestingly, it still shows the file systems as mounted.
So, now I'm doing a full SD card reformat. Figured I'd get that variable out of the way before I go any further.

You are installing the wrong version of CWM. Never use anything older than 5.8.2.0. This is the one you want: http://download2.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.8.2.0-p930.img
Anything older than that is known to not work.
Second thing: You seem to have an incorrect understanding of what "root" means. Having "root" simply means you have administrator access to your current ROM. When you install a new ROM, whether you had root access to your old ROM is meaningless frankly.

Ah, thank you! I must've been viewing an old thread. Now that I look at the version number, it appears that's the version I had been hunting for since the newest one didn't work.
Interesting, I most certainly misunderstood, I was under the impression that "rooting" the device was a filesystem level permission change. Good to know!
It seems like we are getting closer to a solution here. Thanks for your patience!
Well, that appears to have been my problem the whole time! That's kind of embarrassing, considering how much time I sunk into this and how simple the solution was!
Anyway, thank you all very much! I assume that TWRP would have also solved my problems as well. It would seem that both the older and newest versions of CWM have some problems (at least for me!).

I really enjoy the integration Rom Manager/CM Updater has with CWM. If twrp is capable of running the install scripts those two use, I might consider trying it out, but I don't really like manually going through the steps to flash a rom every day.
I can no longer flash a new rom and boot up successfully. It goes through the entire flash process correctly, but then boots straight into CWM when i restart. I have tried to flashing back to stock via odin, then starting fresh, did a factory reset from standard recovery. I have flashed MANY times prior with no problems. The only way I can get it to boot is when I restore with Odin. Am I missing something? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Well fortunately for you rooting the GS3 is very easy, so do as he says, Odin to stock, re-root and flash. If you are seriously at a loss because you don't want to go through the trouble to be able to flash and root again then I suggest searching forums for someone who might have the same problem.
That's the problem, after flashing back to stock, and re rooting, I have the problem. I cannot flash anything using CWM or TWRP anymore. I am currently rooted and stock. No recovery installed. Not sure what happened and why recoveries are not working. I don't mind flashing back to stock.
Grab a stock image from sammobile.com and try that.

I can't get the system to boot up after flashing the Wicked rom. It booted only once but now I am stuck at the Galaxy S4 logo screen at start up. I have tried flashing to another rom but still its not working. It stays stuck at the Galaxy S4 logo. I have done a clean wipe too just to make sure. Any suggestions on fixing this.

Are you using a 64GB sd card in exFAT format? If so try booting without the sd card. If that don't work you might need to Odin back to stock. Using stock recovery wipe data and start over again.
Also what version of TWRP are you using?
I recommend Philz CWM version as TWRP gave me trouble when using with Aroma installer.

Didn't work. The philz does not even boot into the recovery at all. It just sits at the logo with recovery booting blue text at the top left. Basically at this point I could go back to stock just to have something usuable at this point.
Alright, no need to worry bud, as long as it turns on, you're good, ha.
If you want to go back to pure stock, flash this via ODIN: http://hotfile.com/dl/213546261/7ab...-SGH-M919-TMB-M919UVUAMDL-1366964131.zip.html

I had trouble using twrp also, im currently running wicked 6.1 without any issues but here's what I did when I was stuck installing. I went back and cleared data factory reset, and cleared cash then went to my nandroid back up and reinstalled backup. Then I went and downloaded cwm touch recovery installed, then I wipe data factory reset and reinstalled the rom wicked and it worked. Booted up just fine with different recovery. I was having other issues with twrp so cwm worked well. Hope this helps.
Why anyone uses TWRP boggles my mind. CWM official is all you need ^_^

There's two kind of people in this world.. :laugh:
I'm with you, though. CWM touch is epic, lol.
Agreed. Twrp is not stable, use cwm.
