I was in the middle of flashing FreedomOS. I wiped to factory reset and went to install the ROM but it doesn't show anything about flashing it. Instead there are two options. The first one is select storage and then there is install image/zip. The second one does nothing. I have a backup made but when I restore it, I won't go to the OnePlus boot screen. It will stay in in the android one. I am pretty new to rooting and the whole community so any help is appreciated.

I have a rooted Incredible and I have some issues with it right now, i tried to restore the backup i created and i get an error, i have wipped everything from the phone and i cant get it to reset to factory. Any ways to help out with this?
What issues are you having? If all you did was root the phone and that was all, i highly doubt that the issues are because of root.
i attempted to install vanilla skyraider, i backed up the orginal skyraider and now when i tried to restore the skyraider backup i get a error
Please help me, I have messed up my phone pretty bad. When I rebot my phone it goes through the normal process (Skyraider is the ROM I am using) and after the boot is finished it should proceed to the home screen but instead it takes me to a screen that has the Andoriod Logo and says tough andriod to begin, the catch is when i touch the logo nothing happens.

You don't have a functioning backup? Then I would try wiping everything (wipe data/factory reset, cache and dalvik cache), re-downloading and flashing the ROM (any of your choice), the file might have been corrupted some how. Good luck
I had a backup and when i went to restore it through clorkworkmod recovery it doesnt work and i dont understand why,
After messing with a custom ROM downloaded from ROM Manager, I wanted to go back to my original stock 2.2. However, when I went to do the restore of my most recent backup (done before I flashed this most recent ROM) it tells me that the MD5 sum has a mismatch and won't do the restore.
So after doing some research, I try and do a clean restore of the stock 2.2 RUU .zip, but HBOOT tells me that the PB31IMG.zip is out of date and won't do the update.
I have no other backups on my SD card or anywhere else, and I've flashed the phone to a different ROM that was downloaded to my SD card so I at least have a functioning phone. However I want to bring it back to stock in case I have to send the phone to Verizon at some point.
Security is set to S-ON for those who need to know.
Any assistance on this is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

That worked! Restoring my backup now! Thank you!
Ok, after fixing the MD5 error and restoring my backup (and clearing the cache/data/etc) It shows the "HTC Incredible" screen, but then goes black and shows nothing at all. All buttons are unresponsive and a battery pull is necessary to get back into recovery.
What might be happening here?
I've been having the same exact problem. My phone is almost unusable right now after loading a 2.3 ROM onto to it just to see how it worked. I backupped my files and clear my cache before hand, but when I load into HB Boot and click recovery, the phone vibrates, displays the HTC logo, then goes to a black screen with two white bars on the sides. It is unresponsive and requires a battery pull.
I can reboot the phone and get into the 2.3 ROM, but it is slow and buggy. No android market, lots of force closes, and won't load my google account.
I assume the problem has something to do with Clockwork MOD recovery. Any ideas out there?

Actually it does sound like CMR, check the lastest unrevoked rooting thread to get the image and how to install it. This usuallly occurs with the slcd screens. If i'm wrong someone else let me know.
You can go here to get the SLCD recovery: http://www.incredibleforum.com/foru...nly-see-black-screen-white-bars-recovery.html
worked liked a charm. Thanks.
I installed android Cyanogen then I use ROM Manager to download Virtuous 3.2 ROM. When installed, I did not choose to wipe data. Bumb. After the installation, it keeps rebooting and could not get into the phone. I tried hard reset, "clear storage" and factory reset, no help. When I get into RECOVERY, it shows a list of options but when I hit power button to select, it showed a black hat with a yellow partially circle arrows. What can I do other than with a hammer? Thanks.
Download this file
http://www.fourty.net/~berzerker/stockstuff/PB31IMG_3.26.605.1_RUU.zip
rename it to PB31IMG.zip, put it on the root of your SD card. Boot up the phone while holding vol - & pwr. When it boots into bootloader it will check the image to verify everything is ok, proceed with the update all the way through. When it is all done it will be back to a a stock 2.2 Inc like when you bought it from verizon.
Now, please read up on the information here before you go doing anything else. What happened to you is a simple fix, but the next time you may go about bricking your phone. Read up on the information here before you go flashing like crazy, it will help a ton in the end.
g00s3y,
Thank you very much for your advice. You fixed the problem. I have learned my lesson, playing with something that I am not sure how to deal with the outcomes.
Thanks, so after I install this, will I be able to completely wipe my phone?
"will I be able to completely wipe my phone?"
- Yes, it did wipe out my phone completely.
All I did was do a reset to factory settings on my tablet, it rebooted and it's now in a TWRP bootloop?
I see the TWRP logo come on and then the screen goes black and then the TWRP logo comes on again?
Please help! I have no idea what to do???
I searched all over Google but couldn't find anything that worked?
This has happened to a lot of people: http://forums.androidcentral.com/sa...p-after-factory-reset-cyanogenmod-12-1-a.html
So, I'm going to make this warning REALLY BIG so this doesn't happen to you as well:
If you are running CyanogenMod 12.1 and TWRP recovery, then DO NOT ever do a FACTORY RESET.
You will break your tablet.
HOW TO FIX:
The only way I was able to fix this was to use Odin and put the stock firmware back onto the tablet.
Hello, can anyone help me, where to download the stock firmware.
I think, I'm having a same problem here. My boot screen are blank, right after the Title screen
Hello All,
My Device is SGH-M919...Rooted and was running Cyanogenmod 13.
Last week something went wrong (no idea what happened, but phone went black screen and when rebooted it just stays in boot loop)...Tried to went to recovery to clear cache and format so that i can start over, but it never boots into recovery....So, i re flashed TWRP (which i had earlier), but no joy...
So i decided, to flash the stock ROM and start all over again (not worried of backup as i have daily backup of my calls, sms, pics, videos etc)...
Tried flashing stock via ODIN, it shows succesful, but it still is in boot loop...it just shows the Samsung logo and restarts.....Tried to went to Recovery, but its not booting into Recovery, But am able to goto the Download mode and ODIN recognizes my device...
What am i doing wrong or what am i missing in the whole process of recovering my phone...
Any help is much appreciated.....
Note: I already moved to Moto X Pure, but still miss my S4....
Did you boot to stock recovery and perform a factory wipe before booting the stock rom for the first time?
