Hi i have a problem, i have flashed Stock Kitkat rom v1.7, but i dont liked because dont have the option to swap external sd card to internal, so i enter in recovery mode, i made a Clean install wipe with PhilZ recovery (deletes everything including the rom) to go back to 4.1, but I was wrong, and instead of selecting to choose install zip, select it will reboot, obviously with the Clean Install no longer had rom, but now stays at the Logo Tab 3 and can not get into recovery mode or Downloading mode to flash a new rom :crying:, i tried to conect to Odin, and Odin Recognize but stuck on Setup conection, i think is because my computer is not installing the MTP USB DRIVER (i have downloaded that driver from internet but still not working)
that I can do? I lost the recovery mode? the downloading mode?

Hi Dudes and Dudettes.
PLease go easy on me - I am a noob.
Ive been handed a HTC ONE X (International version) that is stuck in aboot loop.
On power on, it simply goed to cyanogen load screen, and stays there forever (till the battery runs out or the phone is powered down)
I dont know what has been done to this phone, but I do know the following:
1. It seems to be rooted (Says UNLOCKED in Fastboot/bootloader screen)
2. Has CWM installed, can access it via Recovery.
3. Can not be restored via Backup/Recovery in CWM.
4. Does not have any roms on the device (tried zip file recovery - doesnt work)
5. Wiping of caches doesnt help.
6. Factory reset doesnt work either.
So I am thinking that I should prolly get a rom on the device and install it.
My question is HOW do I get a ROM on this phone if it is stuck in a loop?
Seem like windows picks it up (its visible in device manager) but doesnt show up as a drive in my computer.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers!

Hi
is it possible to use recovery mode rather than Odin?
For eg
1/ save samsung stock rom on sd card
2/ boot phone into recovery mode
3/ select install and point to the sd card file location and install?
I've installed kies to get the usb drivers, made sure its not running, run odin 3.09, used a good quality cable, but not exact one phone came with (still hunting around for it). But Odin can not recognise the phone.
try diffetent version of odin and enter download mode
I Am trying to flash the android 4.4.2 ROM for samsung galaxy note 3 neo.
I made a backup using twrp 2.7.0.0.
then I tried to wipe data and cache and delvik cache
but the recovery hanged up and I had to remove the battery to reboot the phone again
then I tried to flash the stock ROM using Odin 3.09 and when I click "Start" it freezes at "Initialization" and doesn't flash the Rom
I tried to open the phone but it's stuk at samsung logo
I tried to format system through twrp but it froze again
then when I tried to reboot the phone it was stuck on the main screen that says "samsung galaxy note 3 neo" which means that formatting system was successful .
I opened the recovery again and went to "mount" And I found that it can't mount anything
I tried to resrtore the backup but I had an error
now I don't know what to do
I can't flash the ROM
I cant reboot into system (formatted)
My PC keeps telling me that the USB not recognized when I try to connect the phone in download mode
Any ideas ??

Whicch Stock ROM did you flash? It has to have a bootloader above or equal to what you currently have.
I tried to open the phone but it's stuk at samsung logo
This is hope. Others can't switch on at all :crying:

Have you tried flashing TWRP or another recovery anew? Via ODIN perhaps?
I tried to resrtore the backup but I had an error
What error does it give?
I can't flash the ROM
Have you tried flashing a custom ROM via TWRP and see if it sticks?
My PC keeps telling me that the USB not recognized when I try to connect the phone in download mode
Have you checked that your Samsung drivers are installed correctly?
Have you booted into Download mode correctly?
Hello everyone. I have a tmoble s3 that was once rooted and then updated with kies and ran on stock firmware. The phone was updated to the latest firmware but I had lost root. I left it alone and all was well for many months. The other day after charging the phone it was unable to complete the boot. I can boot to recovery and to download mode but it wont safe boot or normal boot it hangs up at the last phase. I took the phone in to a samsung rep and he tried to load the firmware on the phone he did a home recovery but the phone still doesnt complete the boot. I had already tried factory reset before taking it in and it failed. I am not sure how to fix it since it isnt rooted any ideas on how to fix the phone? Is it possilbe to fix this phone or is it just a paperwieght now? Can you odin a pre rooted rom on a phone that isnt rooted and wont boot in order to enable usb debugging or developer options? I have no idea how to proceed so any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance
To quickly check the phone's functionality, I suggest the following:
1) download Odin 3.07 from here: https://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j...07763241,d.dmo
2) download the tar version of TWRP 2.8.6.0 from here: https://dl.twrp.me/d2tmo/
3) download the latest cm12.1 for the phone from here ( http://www.cmxlog.com/12.1/d2tmo/) and save it to a micro SD card;
4) download the version of cm12.1 gapps you want from here (https://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps) and save it to the same sd card where you saved CM12.1;
5) place the micro SD card into the phone;
6) boot the phone into download mode;
7) open Odin 3.07 and uncheck everything except f. reset time;
8) click on PDA and browse to the tar TWRP file and select it;
9) connect the phone and it should show up as a com port in Odin;
10) flash TWRP;
11) when you see the word RESET in the status window, remove the USB cable, remove the battery, replace the battery, use the button combination to get into recovery which should now be TWRP;
12) perform a full wipe of system, data, and cache;
13) flash CM12.1 and gapps from the micro SD card;
14) reboot and enjoy
ive had help in rom section but unable to get the rom installed trying to install the ultimate note 5 rom ok i follow op instructions tried muti twrp and the lastest philz ever time i flash the rom i get a error 7 code tried muti formatted sd cards tried putting on phone storage then flashing still same error.. ive read on the error 7 a little bit about it look in the updater script dont see the line it says to erase,ive flash other rom no problem but this 1 keeps failing with that error the picture says twrp 2.8.6 did it just to try out but im on twrp 3.0 now when i got the phone it was already on 5.1.1 ok1
I will be as specific and give as much detail as i can here...
You need to start over with a clean slate. Use standard class 10 micro-sd card and don't mess with multi format whatever. Use TWRP 2.8.7 or 3.0.0. Start by rebooting into recovery and wiping everything clean several times. backup any files that you need to keep. But you must wipe internal sd, system, cache, data and dalvic-cache. wipe thenm in advanced wipe options of twrp. Next reboot to download mode. Launch odin 3.10.6 or newer on your pc. connect your phone to your pc via the usb cable. In the options tab of odin make sure auto-reboot and reset time is CHECKED!!! Open the official stock OK1 rom tar using the AP button in odin. Once the md5 check completes just press start to flash the stock rom. when it finishe LET THE PHONE REBOOT!!! Once the phone boots, setup as usual then go into Settings and open "Activate this device". Let it do it's thing and it will automatically reboot. Once the phone reboots, go to settings/System update and do the prl AND profile updates. Reboot your phone again. Then make sure your data and calls work as they should.
Once you are on stock and have done all of these steps above you are ready to odin TWRP. Download the tar version of TWRP to use in odin. It is the best way to flash recoveries. Launch odin on your pc and use the AP button to add the TWRP tar. In the options tab you can uncheck auto reboot if you want. (I've never had to do that but you can). Once it flashes you can let the phone reboot or you can just pull the battery then force reboot into recovery by holding the volume-up, home and power buttons until you feel the phone vibrate. Release all buttons and wait for TWRP to boot. Once in TWRP, do all of the wipes same as before multiple times. Then for good measure go to TWRP homescreen and press "Reboot" then "Recovery" and this will reboot recovery and ensure that the rom zip will flash with no trouble. Reboot recovery then flash the UN5 rom and remember to wait for data to conect before proceeding with setup wizard. Success. If this doesn't work then give up and leave your phone stock until you figure out what's causing your problems. Good luck.
