[Q][HELP] Phone is like groundhog day

Each time I boot up my phone it reverts to a previous state no matter what I do. It started 2 nights ago when I was messing with it. I wanted to install another rom and try rom manager. RM gave me an error saying it couldn't do something and fix permissions sometimes worked. I went into CWM touch and did a "fix permissions". I had also just installed CWM touch a few minutes earlier to try it out. I gave up on RM and just tried installing CM9 alpha nightly the usual way. I got the CM9 startup animation, but when the phone starts it's in the same earlier state. I was on AOKP build 28.
I've tried:
Restoring a previous nandroid backup
Reinstalling CMW regular via the Toolkit and fastboot
Fixing permissions (again) via CWM touch
Wiping everything CMW will let me... multiple times.
So far no matter what I do the phone is in the same state. I can install apps, take pictures, etc., but when the phone reboots (it's doing random reboots often) none of them are saved. I think the fix permissions somehow made most or all of my directories read only and the phone is rebooting when the ram is being fully used, but I'm not sure. I remember getting one "read only" error last night, but I was trying so many things the exact moment escapes me. I can boot into CMW regular via the Toolkit as long as I don't flash it.
I have Windows 7 and Ubuntu at my disposal.
edit 1: I may have mounted the /system path before I did a fix permissions if this matters. It tells me /system is read-only.
edit 2: I can't delete anything off of the SDCARD when it's mounted as usb storage in Windows.

[Q] Need Help stuck in bootloop after flashing recovery

So just as the title says i decided to root my n7. Everything seemed to go smooth until my nexus 7 was stuck on the boot animation screen for about 20 minutes. I tried doing a factory reset in TWRP and it said wipe failed. I decided to flash CWM instead and do a factory reset but i couldn't. It said error mounting /data. I'm not sure what to do googling around didn't seem to work.
TWRP gave me a message saying SU is not installed after i installed the recovery so i clicked instal SU. I'm not sure if that contributed to my problem or not. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ok so i figured this out.
So for anyone who ever gets into an endless bootloop with the inability to wipe data you need to do the following.
1. Download the latest Factory image from google.
2. Exctract the files into your platform-tools folder an run the "flash-all" command this video illustrates it perfectly http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsss9e71bKo
3. And you're done! hopefully this helps someone out

[Q] Device bricked, need to install apk i suppose.

Hey, It is a long story, I will tell it briefly. I have a tablet iball 7271, I know off branded, I bought it because it was slimmer and goodlooking.
I rooted it after and accidentally uninstalled two services: Atciservice, and BackupAndRestore.
My tablet doesn't boot up, It just keep showing iball logo.
I had taken nandroid backup before but i don't know how to recover it. If i try to flash CWM.zip, it says "Invalid OTA package, missing scatter. Installation aborted"
But then I just extracted those apk (Atciservice, and BackupAndRestore.) i uninstalled from backup and tried to install it. But my tablet is only working if I type "ADB sideload etc... " And if i try to send apk through sideload it shows "Installation aborted".
How can i make a flashable zip file to start my tablet? Or any other solution? I tried hard reset, problem is same. If anyone knows how can I just make it work then please tell.

[Q] Did a stupid game just brick my phone?

My device is the Galaxy Nexus (Toroplus), with TWERP recovery 2.8.4.0. I did have SlimKat 4.4.4 running before attempting to flash CM 5.0.2 on the phone. Now I am without a ROM.
Here's my story. I had this stupid game by the name of Bloons Tower Defense 5 installed on the phone. I wiped my Dalvik one day and got an error message reading: " E: unable to stat '/data/com.ninjakiwi.bloonstd5.humble/files/Profile.save' ". After that, I was unable to run or uninstall the app. The phone would just reboot. I couldn't manually delete the files without the phone automatically rebooting either. With this irritating me, I decided that I wanted to install the CM 5.0.2 ROM. I threw the zip on my phone and wiped my current install. I went to install the new ROM only to be greeted (once again) by " E: unable to stat '/data/com.ninjakiwi.bloonstd5.humble/files/Profile.save' ". Great. So I went to the file manager and navigated to the directory for the game. I tried deleting, moving, and renaming the file that is giving me these issues. Nothing worked. Now I have no ROM, and can't even flash a new ROM, restore from a backup I had, or totally wipe the device. Each and every time I try to do anything, its " E: unable to stat '/data/com.ninjakiwi.bloonstd5.humble/files/Profile.save' ". Does anyone have any advice or a method to remove this garbage, other than snapping this phone in half? This is worse than Malware.

If I were you, I would find Odin and flash the stock rom and recovery back on it, although only select versions work with it. Search up "Odin for Galaxy Nexus toroplus".
I've bricked my previous Samsung 3 times and Odin was the only thing that could save it.
FYI: You have to be in download mode in order for Odin to detect your phone. And always follow all directions carefully. ALWAYS.
Hoped I helped!

RN8 file problems

Hello I have a problem with the files on my device and it is that when trying to install a ROM using TWRP I get that it has failed and a lot of messages saying:
"Error opening: ´/data/user_de/0/" (Here it puts rare names of symbols and letters) operation not permitted
I already tried to mount the data folder from the recovery and I also tried to install the ROM from ADB commands but it is not possible, this is not the first time that I installed a ROM since I had Pixel Experence and when installing it it did not show me any error and now the Device does not start as it has no ROM and when it turns on it opens the TWRP.
someone could help me with that please.
