Allright guys well my phone has been acting all wonky lately and well I wanna try to factory reset with the stock recovery
The things the phone does is that it sometimes it looses signal even tho I am right next to the tower and lately my messages are off by an hour no matter what Rom I am on so I need help with the instructions and what Rom am I supposed to be on
Thanks
To factory reset, you should be on the stock rom with stock recovery. Then boot to hboot and select factory reset. The issue your having sounds like a radio issue. Are you on the latest kitkat firmware?

Hi! i recently decided to flash the Modaco Custom rom 3.1.
I wanted a fresh start on my desire, but only after i Flashed it, did i realise it doesn't remove all my apps and data.
So went to settings and did the factory data reset thing, but when the phone restarted, it got caught into a reboot loop.
Any ideas on what could causing this, and any ideas on how i can start fresh with the MCR 3.1?
Thnx
Try to first wipe/factory reset your phone via the recovery, and then flash MCR 3.1

O M G ..Thanks - How out of all the things i tried, did i not try factory resetting before i flashed.
But still. Does anyone know why this happened? I mean if i factory reset again. do you think it would boot loop again?
I think it shouldn't boot loop in that case. The problem was probably caused by some stuff that was left over from the previous ROM that you had on your handset.
Hi,
This is my first attempt at flashing ROMs. Any ROM I try gets stuck at boot animation. Only way for me to get out of it is to boot phone into download . Go into TWRP and do system reboot backup restore. I am currently stock VALHU2 rooted. I downloaded Goomanager /TWRP recovery as flash source. I went into browse compatible ROMs and selected the most current CM9 zip and downloaded. After, I went into flash ROMs ,Order & Flash selected. I then checked Wipe cache/dalvik cache partition, checked create backup, but did not check reset factory settings. Is not checking restet factory settings where I am going wrong.Thank you in advace for any input.

You shouldn't need to reset factory defaults. However, I Odin'd UVALH2 Last night and the phone refused to get past the Samsung screen until I did a factory reset.

How did you do a factory reset?
Yes, you do need to do a complete wipe/factory reset when going from Touchwiz to CM9.

Thought so. Thank you.
Hey man you flashing a ROM through Odin or recovery?
Ok so I went back to stock after CM9, all went fine, phone rebooted and does the animation and sound but it won't go any further, I tried getting into the recovery screen but goes as far the little android guy and then reboots. Any ideas?
Reflashed Euro stock and again stuck at boot animation, I can't get into recovery to wipe or anything as it won't go past the little Android guy and reboots any ideas? On my SGS2 what I would of done at this stage is go into recovery and reset all, but can;t do this, gonna try flashing CWM to see if this helps, stock recovery seems fooked.

Hi! You have to flash your phone stock ROM. And then again try to flash the MOD

Have you checked the zip file you downloaded is corrupt or not?
There is a difference 1mb will cause bootlop on your device.

Ok, recorrect.
I missread.
Have u got an SD card?
Just put a new stable ROM in it.
And befoure installing the new ROM wipe factory settings, cache, dalvik cache.
And make sure it is wiped, then install the new one.
Because it might save some setting from that ROM, and they might be corrupted, so it's recommended to wipe those befoure ROM installing, and after, when the ROM is installed already.
And if you can't get into recovery mode, then ur phone might be bricked.
No idea, how to solve that.
Haven't experienced that at all.

If you can go into Download Mode, you can try using Odin to fix things up. Otherwise, your phone is hard-bricked, and only SSC can help.

Hi!
Try to remove the external sd card!!
My phone had a bootloop like this on every custom rom,(also stock rom but with wipe i had resolved).
So try to remove the sd card!
I can't take it ever since i updated my t210r to 4.4.2 problems galore. i flashed several roms still i get random reboots and app stopps. i wiped everything and flashed odin over and over and still i get random reboots and app stops its driving me crazy that update was the worst mistake i ever made surely there is someone out there experiencing the same thing or know of a way to fix

Sounds like a dirty flash try another rom using transche myself which is fine.
i have tried that rom even nolekat and experience the exact same problems

I would suggest disabling the tablet of the apps you are not using and install greenify which will hibernate the apps until you are using them.

Try flashing the full stock firmware from sammobile; then boot into the stock recovery and do a full factory reset. If that doesn't work, then you may want to install a custom recovery and re-format (not wipe, but actually format) the data partition.
Ok will try that. After wiping the data partition what should i do?

I would boot into the complete stock system and see if you have any problems. If everything works fine when completely stock, then you can install a custom recovery and try some other roms.
Ok cool i really hope this works bud because I've tried everything even used twerp recovery to advance format system, data, cache and internal storage

still no luck gr8 i tried booting into stock still i get random app stops, like "unfortunately playstore has stopped"., "unfortunately systemui has stopped", "unfortunately touchwizhome has stopped", and all other apps depending on which one i'm using. they still come on back but its really annoying also i get random reboots. i feel like i have tried everything.
Did you ever get this fixed?
Did you ever figure out a fix? I'm having the exact same problem.

I've flashed back to the stock fimware from sammobile and I still have errors and random rebooting. So I rooted with CWM ad did a full factory reset, still the same problems. I've re-formatted the data and the data/media (/sdcard) partition,still the same problem.

Even a completely stock system, I'm having problems. I've tried wiping everything (cache, dalvik ,data/factory reset ) then flashing back to the stock firmware using Odin3 v3.09, and I'm still getting errors and random rebooting.
Has my t210 bit the dust?
Seems like a lot of people are having trouble with the new updates. I would try to find an older version of the stock rom and load it thru Odin 3.7 and see if you still have the same problems.
Same thing I'm thinking but I still have hope
Did any of you all clear your cache and dalvik-cache as part of the flashing process?
The 4.4 ROM is an update to the stock 4.2. If you use a custom ROM, you will probably need to reflash stock 4.2 in order to flash 4.4.
But this tab never had 4.2 only 4.1 and I did a complete wipe before flashing anything

Here's what I would do then:
Reflash 4.1, then try 4.4. If that doesn't work, flash all three consecutively. Gotta test around to find out what works.

We have got a V4.2.2 Version, but this was ported from the Tab 3 sm-t110 lite.
Format and wipe all folders using none stock recovery like CWM this will empty all junk left behind
Should I erase all this everything I've included in the screenshot?

Hey everyone. My phone has been running like crap lately and I have thought about doing a factory reset. I just had a few questions. If I did a factory reset I'm pretty sure I lose root, but what about the custom recovery?
Also, this is what I had in mind to do - but would you mind checking to see if it would be my best route please? I am going to install a custom rom on it. But just wanted to do a factory reset / install stock firmware first before I did it.
Download and install stock firmware. 10B I believe is what it is.
Root it again and put the bumped recovery back on it.
Install CM12 or another rom.
Is that pretty much what I should do?
Thanks!

If you do a factory reset (with the kdz tool, its the best way if you want to reinstall the stock firmware), you lose everything (root, recovery, etc..) because it will flash the phone completely.
I recommend you to take a look at this for all the thing that you need to do: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089
And make sure you never do a factory reset from within Android w/ a custom recovery like TWRP installed, otherwise your phone will end up in a continuous boot loop. There's no reason for you to go back to stock anyway, as you're planning on reinstalling CM12 or installing a different ROM. You'll be doing a factory reset (wiping System, Data, Cache, and Dalvik) from within TWRP before flashing anyway, so there's no need to go back to stock beforehand.

If you flash your phone with kdz, yes, like the guy above said you will lose both root and recovery. What I'm curious about is reason you want to do it? You already have custom recovery so if you want to do factory reset (that is wiping data and cache partitions) why not do it manually there?
And what is the point of it? As you said you will flash CM12 or another ROM, so that will basically do a factory reset, you will wipe all (system, data, cache) to install your new ROM...
Of course before flashing or wiping system partition with TWRP I recommend doing a backup just in case.
Thanks for the info everyone. The reason I wanted to do a clean factory install instead of just putting on CM12 is because if I didn't like it, I could just go back to a stock, rooted KK.
Like I said it has been acting up lately, so maybe a clean install of factory can help it. That way, if I don't like CM I can just restore my clean copy.
Where as now, if I didn't like CM I would have to restore my messed up backup.
But I will probably flash back to stock firmware, root it again and put a custom recovery on it again. Make a backup of that, then play around with some ROMS.
But once again, I appreciate the help!
