Im an impatient idiot. Lol. I flashed a boot.img through Odin but I flashed a euro img accidentally. Now my phone turns on shows the Samsung screen and then turns off or screen goes black. I think I need to refashion the sprint stock firmware and it'll work. I can find it. Anyone have it and could send it to me please? I tried doing a factory reset already to no avail. Please help!
Thanks in advance.
hopefully over the next few days we'll see the tar ball for stock; course you could always head to your nearest sprint store and have them flash it for you.
Questions go in Q&A

same thing happened to me. Just spent over a hour at my local sprint store. My tech told me they dont have any software for the phone yet but they did order me a replacement s3. The tech just tried to hard reset it but it doesnt even boot recovery.
Does this help?

If you can get into odin, just flash the tar in PDA mode.
I guess Ill give it a shot. I can still access odin. Just not too sure if I should continue to tinker with it since sprint has already agreed to send a replacement

You see when you flash a wrong image, instead of the phone working better you will get quite the opposite.
lol ur absolutely right. This heatwave is making me stupid
Yea I have talked with Sprint, no one has the stock firmware. What does that link you sent out contain? I cannot access it yet because I am a newbie. I can access Odin and am able to reflash if I have the correct firmware.
Also, sorry for posting this in the wrong place.

Basically the link is for rooting your phone; there are 2 threads in the development area concerning it.
If someone did a factory reset; then went into recovery and did a backup.
Could that backup be used by someone else; say this poor soul. To use to restore them back to stock?
I'm thinking if channelzer0 could get their phone to CWM they could use that method to get back to a working state; would that work??
I can get into both recovery or Odin. Whether itll work or not....im willing to find out if I can.

You should be able to simply flash the recovery and the phone should work.
But yeah, someone will probably post the stock rom by the end of the day.

I can't do it now as I'm leaving and wont be back until mid-night; if there isn't something you can odin or flash by tomorrow morning. then I'll root and backup my phone, then reset it and backup again and post that backup for you to try.

I wouldn't mind getting the images, if possible. Actually only need the recovery image. I haven't touched any of the others yet.
I have a Bell Note and am planning to try and pull the system.img, kernel, and recovery before I try ICS. Just trying to figure out how to get all three. I'm thinking from what I read that I can only get two of the three. Flash Da_G's 3e recovery +adb root and grab the system and kernal but lose the recovery. Or (and I'm not as clear on this one) flash his pre-rooted kernel and grab system and recovery and be missing the kernel. Catch 22 I think. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know. I just got the Note this saturday passed. Soo excited. But I'd suggest, if you haven't flashed anything yet, get a hold of braway. He seems to need raw data from Bell Galaxy Note to help restore flash counter to 0.

So braway got back to me. Long and short of it is one person Note can't give all the data. Some data needs to be lost so the rest can be pulled. On the up side, between two people, we can get all the data we need. One person to pull kernel, modem, mdm, and system by flashing CWM, and one person to pull recovery and flash counter data by temp flashing mashi's rooted AT&T system. This way we'd have everything. I volunteer to grab the former (kernel, etc). If someone else would grab the recovery and flash counter, we'd be in business.
Thank you so much to braway for the help, and marshals for pointing me in his direction!

I've already lost the original recovery due to me installing CWM and my flash counter is at 1. So no help from me. Sorry. But everything else is untouched, so if anything else is needed, i'll be glad to help.
Just a little warning. If you flash is, you will loose youth stock bell modem. If you are doing a system pull. Do a modem pull with adb as well

Okay marshal, braway suggested we work together on this. Assuming you've done nothing else to your Note (root etc), if you can pull kernel, modem (amss), mdm, and system, I'll grab recovery and flash counter data. Braway already showed me how to pull kernel, etc in PM. See quote below. Let me know if you're able to do this. Otherwise, we'll need to find another person and different division of labour. Thanks!
braway said:
so, the easiest is probably to simply install cwm through odin
that will increase the counter, but doesn't touch system, kernel, modem...
then, boot to recovery
cwm provides you with root shell access through adb, so you can pull all the data you need...
I think the important data is:
kernel, modem (amss), mdm (part of modem?), system
commands (would dump the data on your internal sd, the sds are mounted differently in recovery):
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p8 of=/emmc/boot.img
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13 of=/emmc/amss.bin
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p17 of=/emmc/mdm.bin
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p24 of=/emmc/system.img.ext4
Note: that would dump it on your internal sd, replace emmc with sdcard if you want it on your external sd

I did root it, but it didn't touch the kernel. It was a video I watched from zedomax. The superuser-3.0.7-efgi-signed.zip. All it does is remove existing su, copy over superuser, change modes and thats basically.

Braway only wants the flash counter which I can give him. But I can't give it to him if I don't have a backup of stock, kernel, etc for my own use. The whole reason I'm doing this is so I can revert to stock without AT&T stuff on my phone if I decide to go back (e.g.: for OTA update when Bell releases ICS in May). As I understand it, and someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but a rip of the ROM doesn't have personal info in it. If it does, I apologize for you doing all that.
Oh, ok.. I wouldn't think there would be info either. Any of that stuff would be in /data I suppose.
Essentially, I'm trying to make a stock Bell ROM so that anyone can go back to stock without having to use the stock AT&T ROM that some Canadian Note owners have been running into issues with.
I seem to have downloaded a wrong version of a ROM, which apparently wrote mmcblk0p5 and mmcblk0p7 backwards from each other. So now I am unable to boot my device. Talking to some people in #koush on freenode stated that it wrote over my modem.bin with a boot image, which is why I cannot boot. I previously already had a working rom (CM10) and was simply trying another one.
So I am wondering, is thare * ANY * way to fix this bricked phone? I am unable to boot into either normal, recovery, or download mode.

having the phone plugged in, it is not recognized as I figured. Also, I dont see how I would even use odin to install the zip to the device. before it was a tar file and this is a zip. So i dont know if it will work as it does not come up.

Does anybody have the stock recovery.img file? I cannot find it anywhere and I need to restore it.
I've also been looking for this, I think tomorrow I may go to a tmobile store and see if I can pull it from a demo phone. I don't think you need root to do that but I'm not sure o.o if I can do it though I'll put it up here

There is no ruu yet. Search the forum and you'll find how to return to stock.

As far as I know the stock recovery isn't available though, at least not for the tmobile one. I've found it for the ATT and original HTC one but tmobile's isn't available. Idk if lkimmel7 found or still needs it though.
I still am looking for it... I made the horrible mistake of encrypted my phone using the built in encrypt option in android... and because I have CWM recovery on it, I cannot undue the encryption.. (obviously because my recovery partition cannot read the /data or /sdcard with it being encrypted).
From what I know, the only was for me to get my phone back to normal is to flash the stock recovery, then boot up normally, then use the factory format option from the android menu.
Somebody feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

That recovery will not work for a T-Mobile HTC one, I have been trying and trying. Its the same recovery found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2158763 Which also does not work.
I can only assume that it needs to be the carrier specific recovery. The ones above will not actually boot into recovery and if you relock the bootloader it gives a security warning.
Yeah, that recovery doesnt work for me.... and now it's looking like i need to do a full re-flash, but I cannot find all the need .img files..

I'm actually not sure whether this will actually work on my device but I will still try.

Anyways, about to try this and thank you so much for the mirror! The Dropbox link was no longer working.
I am using stock T-Mobile Rom with HTC Sense, rooted and S-Off. I hope it doesn't take S-Off and if it does, well then screw it. I don't really need it anyways.
Thanks again! I will edit afterwards telling if I had success or not. Fingers crossed.

I've never taken an OTA on a Samsung device. In my experience there is a prompt that verifies you want to install after the download. IF it's the same here, I would THINK your safe to Odin.
If you can get to recovery, throw a ROM on your SD card and flash.

I downloaded the OTA and let it site on the stock MDK phone for over a day before I rooted and installed ota root keeper to test to see if I can restore root..with out bricking
I could of easily delete the fota cache where it downloaded to and frozen the propitiate file to stop the update

get into recovery and just flash a custom rom.
If you have titanium backup, use it to freeze SDM 1.0 and FWUpdate. This will keep the new software from downloading and keep the software update notification from appearing (provided it hasn't been installed by now).
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
best idea has been said, get that thing into custom recovery where the OTA cant install. try beating the phone as it tries to install and get it into download mode and see if u can flash a custom recovery though ODIN
What you can do at this point depends a lot on what has already been updated on your phone.
If the bootloader is already updated, then there's no way for you to load the older kernel onto it to get it ready to root.
What I'd suggest you do is to go ahead at try the rooting process.
Boot the phone into download mode and try to push the MD2 kernel onto it,
If the install tries to restart, it'll fail since you don't have the expected software, which hopefully will give you a usable system.
Then use motochopper to try to get "su" access.
If ODIN refuses to flash the MD2 software, it's probably the case that you've already gone past the point of no return (i.e. you've got the updated, locked bootloader) and you might as well let the update finish.
If you succeed, then install MDK and Voodoo OTA Keeper and cross your fingers.
Good luck!
The title says it all. My M8 has the bootloader unlocked, it's S-off and rooted with Teamwin recovery installed. I started dicking around with it, and messed it up. I went to HBOOT and factory reset. I now have no OS, so obviously, my phone won't start up. I appear to be really stuck. If you guys help me and talk me through this, I'll stop dicking around. :-/
Also, I would like to load my stock bootloader, 1.12.502.18 (CID CWS__001). I've found the kernel source code as well as a 1.3 GB file from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701376 that supposedly houses this Nandroid backup, but I have no idea how to use it. God, I feel stupid.
Ok. I got the Nandroid backup recovery.emmc.win file pushed to the phone. Now, I have a red triangle in the middle of the screen and I can't get to recovery or fastboot.
Flash twrpCopy the rom to where your adb and fastboot are located connect phone via twrp run this command
adb push nameofrom.zip /sdcard/. exactly as shown here change nameofrom.zip to the name of the rom your trying to flash...this will put a rom on your internal storage and it then can be flashed via twrp

adb push nameofrom.zip /sdcard/. exactly as shown here change nameofrom.zip to the name of the rom your trying to flash...this will put a rom on your internal storage and it then can be flashed via twrp

I was able to get into TWRP just fine. When I pushed the file, it moved the file, but I can no longer get to TWRP. So the ROM is there, I just can't access it. Thoughts?
Ok, I got Recovery going. I'm now in TWRP. Where did adb stick the file I pushed?
take out sdcard if using one and only use internal storage..Have to push a flashable rom zip not nand backup.once is pushed it should take awhile,youll go to install like any other custom rom from the install menu. Or if you cant get that going use adb sideload command
Make sure command is correct
adb push nameofrom.zip /sdcard/.
Dumb question. Where in the world do I find the stock recovery zip? I can't find any zip...only img, etc.
You dont need stock recovery right now follow instructions to get a rom back on the device first...download any custom rom and follow what i said

Thanks for the help. Downloading your ROM now.
If you can get in recovery choose the option "adb sideload" put the ROM on your desktop and name it rom. Then in a command window type adb sideload rom.zip , TWRP will automatically recognize the update script and flash it for you.

I took the direction of Wonders_Never_Cease and followed it to the letter. FUBAR no longer. Though I did panic a little, I learned a lot from this direction going forward. Thanks, Wonders_Never_Cease. Thanks also to everyone else who offered help.
Glad it all worked out for you...

Not so much. I've run into another problem while trying to get it back to where I want it. SD Card will not mount. What can I do?
Aaaaand, nevermind. Youtube was my friend in this case.

I don't think he was asking that. I am pretty sure he was asking where he managed to find the stock recovery, which is why the red exclamation, probably because he didn't pull or nand the recovery as a raw or img file before flashing something custom (the user that asked, that is).
I doubt is is a stock AT&T ship recovery from an RUU dump or ota, since there haven't been any for AT&T that I know of yet, so it's likely just a raw dump or was part of the nand backup he restored.
Already been sorted thank you fot you insight
