Recovery broken XT910 - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hello everyone
This is my first post, and I am a slight noob, so please bear with me.
I would like to flash my XT910 with a cyanogen mod. I have flashed the device before, to EU jellybean 4.1.2 (952.124.14.XT910.Retail.en.EU).
However, I now cannot get into recovery mode. The Orange motorola start screen comes up, and then a dead android with a red triangle with an exclamation mark comes up. I cannot get further than this.
I have tried flashing a custom recovery using clockwork and TWRP. I have tried ROM manager, BMM, Rom Installer, etc. all to no avail.
Please can you tell me how to fix my recovery partition so i can flash?
Also I have rooted the device using this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2298408 , which seems to be successful.
Thank you for any help!

If you can still start in Download mode (Home key + Volume Down key + Power key) or in Recovery mode (Home key + Power key) it's not hard-bricked so it can be revived.
Options to try: start in recovery and wipe data/factory reset (recommended when changing roms), reflash stock rom with odin and do same as above...
I dont know where to get stock rom?????
Search for a multifile ROM (for Gio) and flash it with ODIN

flash with odin.
I am Going to try it .... Lets hope evry thing goes alrite.........
I also bricked my phone 2days before and rcovered.dont worry.
You need to get odin flashable firmware files.
My suggesion is to google with your phones no like s5360
... Etc try googling PDA_S5560...DDK etc etc
They will be group of files with extension .tar and filename starts in my case with PDA_S5360....,MODEM_S 5360....,BOOT_S....
Etc. best luck

Hello and a sorry for my english
I've done something very very stupid. In the ROM Manager I choose, by mistake, in the Flash ClockworkMod Recovery a different phone than my one and then I push the Backup Current Rom option.In that moment my galaxy gio crashed... it is completely off, I ve try to push all the buttons it is really dead.
What can I do?
There is a very small space on the bottom of the phone where I can push with something to restart it?
Help please

Rom Manager author should really get those CWM recoverys out of that list ... lately a lot of ppl flash wrong CWM`s and brick their phones
No, u don`t have any "hidden button to reset it "
Try to get your battery out, leave it alone for 5 mins or so, and then put battery in and press Volume Down + Home button + power button same time and see if u can get to Downloading mode
If that works, try to flash a stock rom with Odin, there are some tutorials here use the search button
Rom managers recovery for Gio is outdated (4.X.X), better use recovery 5.X.X by Phiezx

hello, i have a problem with my galaxy gio...

CWM isn't compatible with Froyo... You must upgrade to Ginger to use CWM. But ginger is hard to root with Super one click... So you must flash it! :good:
Flash stock 2.3.6 with Odin, then flash cwm with Odin directly afterwards.

Same thing happened to me after i updated super user, it said 'super user signing error' when i accessed CWR from the os, and when i tried to boot it went straight to the OS (cm 7.2) - i fixed it by throwing out the battery for 5 minutes and re installing cm 7.2.

[Q] N7100 Boot Loop + Stuck at Samsung word

Hello everyone! This is my first post here, actually ive been here just for stalking and follow tutorials. this forum is the best for me and helped me a lot. But, 2 days ago, I got an issue that cant be solved by me by refering threads. So I decided to register to forum, and ask by myself.
Here's the problem.
"There has been sudden booting while I was using Facebook on my device, while I reboot it, it stuck at "Samsung Galaxy Note II -GTN7100" after a while, it reboot again. It happened suddently. It happens continously untill now. It has been 2 days I search through the forum but none can help me."
My device details while the problem occur :
ROM : Paranoid Android 3.99 RC2
Recovery : TWRP 2.6.3.0
kernel : stock
and my device can turn into download mode, and TWRP. but only cant boot into ROM.
I did try to flash many ROM via TWRP. And do fresh format.(Clean evrything via TWRP). Install various ROM and it seemed cant help to boot into the ROM.
I also try to flash stock from SAM, via Odin, but it helpless.
I also discovered that is not the power button issue, as i can boot into recovery without restarting by itself. So I think it is not about the power button.
I tried to use other recovery, and flash CWM via Odin, but cant get to CWM recovery mode. I also tried to flash stock recovery, but same as CWM. Only TWRP is working on my phone.
I searched thorugh the forum, and many ask to do factory reset, but it helpless for me.
Thanks everyone for any suggestion! and dont ask me to go to Samsung centre as my device warranty is expired.:cyclops:

well flash this http://d-h.st/fWr and try install any custom rom and get back with the result
and what about philz recovery that does not work even http://d-h.st/iII
Try flash cf-auto root through odin. Usually the phone will successfully booting after the auto root process done.

Sadly solve
Hello everybody.... I assumed that this topic now shall be closed since I sadly solved it.
The solution :
After trying stock ROM and cant enter stock recovery, I tried many official rom 4.1.2 and many custom rom, but nothing can help.
So I decided to go to Samsung centre, then they tried to flash with their own odin, so the same thing happened. After a few checkings, ive been told that my motherboard got problem. So I need to change a new motherboard but I dont want.
So, i decided to buy a brand new phone that same price as the new motherboard =.= .... Thanks to all that trying to help me especially mr Ankit.. Many2 thanks and i appreciate it.. Taking 3 days without sleeping to figure it out seems helpless..
If there are any possible solution, please share to me since Im still following this thread..

Continuing from my above post, I also faced the same situation...Samsung service center guys told me that my motherboard needs to be replaced and it would cost Indian Rs.7400/-, so I am going ahead with the replacement, as now also a new note 2 costs min. Rs.22k in India. And at the Rs.7500/- price point even the new 'Android One' phones launched by Google are no where near to the punch packed by Note 2.
Hope this post helps other beleaguered souls like me.

Pity, mate- but I think motherboard change will in fact provide you a new phone. Samsung has used some third party components that have not been so reliable. New motherboard will have aproven components.

Rooted a Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 lite 7 SM t110" Thank You

I just rooted my new Tab today thanks to the helpful and complete instruction from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2674649
(3/10/2014) and it works beautifully and is very easy, The step by step instructions and detailed videos made this the easiest root I"ve ever done (which would make all of 2 now). It took all of about 10 min, excluding the hour or so I spent carefully rereading the procedure and watching the videos.
Thank you so much! I have root again!!!
Regarding a boot loop problem mentioned in another thread (I am not able to post in development threads yet so hopefully the author will see this)
I had the same thing happen to mine after installing cwm and rooting then attempting to create backups. I think it was the way I tried to boot into cwm, didn't wait long enough perhaps.
Anyway, I wound up flashing the stock firmware again, using Odin, then redoing the cwm install and rooting again. It worked like a charm for me.

I just had to do the whole process over again because my tab would keep dropping wifi (a common Samsung issue) I did a factory reset, forgetting the stock recovery was not on it any longer. It went right into the cwm bootloop again. I reflashed the stock firmware that I got from honai of androids blog in a link, using Odin.
Then reflashed the cwm, and rerooted. All is working again.
i will retry cm and root, glad to hear i wasnt aalone though i am not wishing anyone bad
Booting straight into recovery
I'm having the same issue as some on this forum. I have searched and searched but cannot find stock firmware. The" honai of androids" lead was a dead end. Link appears to be broken. Can someone point me in the right direction? Samsung Galaxy tab3 7.0 lite.

I thought I'd posted the link to the stock firmware,
oops I cant post links yet, just google honai of android blogspot how to date galaxy tab 3 lite
It is a very slow d/l hosted by one of those "pay for fast download" sites. But the free d/l link works fine and it is the proper firmware, samsung sees it as official.
CAUTION: When rerooting, (Notice I didn't say if, I'm assuming anyone would naturally want to have root), when you boot into CWM, it takes a long time. I didn't wait long enough the first time I did it, and I think that may have something to do with the bootloop issue. I am going to install quickboot and try that.
Follow along with the detailed information and videos that were so well done by xda members. Ive done the whole process about 4 times now (when you do that first boot after flashing CWM, be sure and boot into recovery (again follow the video if you have any questions. The one on youtube posted by root junky, ots excellent.
What if the bootloop does not even allow me to get into recovery or download mode?
Any solutions?

I posted the files that you need to root and reset the custom binary counter.
1. Flash the Stock ROM
2. Install the OTA Updates. (NOTE= Don't install it later, it will bootloop in CWM.)
3. Flash CWM in Odin and then flash the SuperSU ZIP.
4. Flash Stock RECOVERY. (IMPORTANT)
5. Download Rashr and flash CWM image file.
6. Done!
Also don't press to boot in recovery mode. It will bootloop, duh.
All of the files are here: bit.ly/sm-t110-root

[Q] Help: Cant flash ROM

Please help:
I rooted my new HTC One M8 using Hansoons All-In-One Toolkit and was able to success unlock the bootloader and flash TWRP recovery.
I can now enter bootloader and boot into recovery.
The problem is that I cannot seem to flash a ROM..any ROM and have tried 3 different ROMs off the forum but all fail or quickly go back to the main recovery page.
I think I have wiped all the data off my phones internal memory in my desperate efforts to get something flashed so that I can use my phone to make calls.
Where do I go from here? I have tried searching the forum for similar threads but seem to be getting myself even more confused.
Thanks in advance if you take the time to help me. In my case a 'little knowledge has been a dangerous thing'
Bob
fastboot erase cache
Then flash the latest TWRP using fastboot. If you used the toolkit to flash TWRP, the toolkit has not been updated in a long time, so the old TWRP versions might be the problem. Or just a bad TWRP install.
Thanks Red - that sorted it out and I now have Cyanogen installed and running perfectly.
Thank you so so much for you advice and timely help.
Bob :good:
Awesome. And you're very welcome.
Never fails to amaze me how many recovery or flashing problems can be solved by simply flushing cache and re-installing recovery.
