Try downloading RSD Lite and the stock SBF file from within the threads and flash that

Your not bricked if the phone turns on it's savable. Are you able to get in recovery?

This is why you are getting force closes. All you need to do is get into recovery wipe re-flash the rom then read the instructions from the alien rom thread and boot into the system and flash the theme in another recovery session.

i did and you dont have to use the theme if you dont want... but being who i am i had to try it out and see how it is... for alll i know i did everything correct i been researching for at least a week for this phone...

Try MR3 and run it in RSDlite

Rom manager major problem!

Long story short: I soft bricked and went back to stock.
Rooted phone.
Then on rom manager I pressed flash clockwork.
Then selected vibrant. That's where the problem is.
It says error occured when downloading and that's it.
I'm stuck on stock how can I make this work or will it work if someone gives me their update.zip?
Also if that works can someone give me their update.zip?
This is the first time I've had this problem and I haven't heard any similar problems so that's why I'm asking.
Thanks in advance.
Delete update.zip, Uninstall/reinstall cwm and try again on wifi

It depends on which method you want to run. You can use the rootzwiki leak which is a tar file used in Odin. Or you can use dagr8's CWM flashable zip.
Let me know which one you want to use and I'll give you further directions. (Odin method would be easier for newbs)

Theres a Q & A section for questions
Thanks i was going to use the exe type using odin like the one i found on rootgalaxynote.com or if you know of a bettervone im open.
Also thanks vm for responding, im on telus in canada if that makes a diff and i have rooted and have cw also.
Do a nandroid backup and then flash one of the ics roms

If you know how to use CWM I'd recommend using that one. I believe if you flash the rootzwiki one you will lose root and CWM.

I have done a nandroid and when you say flash i guess you mean load the exe through odin, if so it comes back as failed all the time, do i have to try a diff com or something.

I would suggest maybe starting with the collective First flight ics it just has fewer steps at this point. What you want to do is download the rom to your sd card and follow the instructions on wiping.
If you need more help feel free to pm me.

1. Back Up your Stuff.
2. Wipe Data/ Factory Reset

6. Sign in to Market to add account.

[Q] Did I just brick my phone?

Well, I just received my phone today and I decided to root it by following a guide. Little did I know that firmware I was rooting was not meant for this phone. Now the phone shows the Samsung screen for a split second and then it turns off.
Is there anything I can do to restore it back to normal? I only have access to download mode right now.
Pm howtomen hrs helped someone earlier today in irc. not sure how. But you're still ok

Ohh ok thank you both for the quick replies. This sucks, I don't have a phone now untill I can get this fixed :\
So where did the dev forum for our phone go? Is it mixed in with the other major 4 US carrier versions?

It seems to randomly disappearing and reappearing.

If you can get into download mode you're ok. You need to flash a stock rom and you'll be back to normal. Don't flash chainfire's root from the international thread because the kernel is not the same.

HELP! URGENT: Need Dialer Storage APK!

I just got my new Galaxy S4, and I'm using Titanium Backup to try and restore my text messages from my old phone. In a totally boneheaded move, I accidentally restored the app from my old Motorola phone and not the data! :crying: Can someone PLEASE upload the "Dialer Storage" APK as soon as humanly possible so that I don't have to do a full factory reset?
Thank you!!!
I found a zip of stock APK's (Here). I assumed that Dialer Storage is SecTelephonyProvider.apk based on Google searches, so I copied and replaced both SecTelephonyProvider.apk and SecTelephonyProvider.odex. The issue still persists, and now I'm getting constant "Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped"!
I have booted into recovery and done a complete factory data reset, but it didn't fix the issue - I'm getting constant "Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped" and "Unfortunately, Messaging has stopped" errors. What the heck have I done and how can I fix this? ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED!!! Thank you so much!
This is for development only. You should post this in Q&A section.

I would try to wipe data, system, cache, and dalvik and reinstall the Rom you are using. More than likely the apk you installed isn't correct for the build base of the room you are using

I take it your in MDK? You could always odin back to stock or flash a new rom and see if that fixes the problem. Sounds like you corrupted the build you are on. TBU can destroy systems if not used properly.

and again you did not read the post he had odin'd. it takes you to stock odin me7 tar.. therefore if he used it, assuming he did since he clearly said he did, then he lost ability to have custom recovery because hes now on me7.. i am not being rude.. just letting him know he cant have custom recovery now.. maybe it will prevent him from posting in the dev thread again at some point asking how to flash custom recovery on me7 lol.

not true either.. only way to go back n forth is to use a custom me7 rom. if you odin stock me7 tar you are on me7 just as if you took the OTA. You can root it, but cant get custom recovery. the very first sentence on the me7 thread warns of this that he used...

Hopefully he can read because you can odin back to mdk if you were originally on mdk when you brick it.

I have and I believe if I had stable net and a pc id be fine, but I work on the road and keep getting same signing verification error. I understand its because the e3 recovery. So trying to bypass it. Trying to find kernel with z image to flash, it says I need it. Am interested in voodoo cause I like rocking but want performance s as well.
Thank you for answering me.

It seems its the whole e3 recovery thing that is causing the problems. I have a custom kernel now lol so as soon as I find a way to recovery then its finally Rom time. I want a later version like 4.2 or around there but don't wanna ota it so if you run across one remember me. Ty again for all your help.
