Unbrick HTC ONE S - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

Hey guys, I was trying to install ViperOneS 2.2.0 and I struggled somewhere and bricked my phone after it wiped my memory.
I tried searching all the threads and mostly it says to use the storage (mount) from the fastboot and load a rom. But my Mount doesn't work because there's no internal memory.
I tried many RUU but it says ERROR 130.
Please help!! I have a HTC ONE S from FIDO.

And you felt that the Verizon Galaxy S4 forum would be a good place to ask this because...?

[Q] Android noob need help

Hello, I have a samsung galaxy s 4g and my brother has a samsung vibrant. His phone is currently running on eclair and he wants to update it to froyo through samsung mini kies. He still hasn't done the update because he is afraid that it might wipe his phone and even after searching thou any information on weather or not it will wipe the phone. Im fine if my phone gets wiped because all i really need are my contacts which are backed up but my brother has a lot of important information on his phone that he does not want to loose just because of an update. So is it safe to update?
Just to be safe..
tell him put put things from his INTERNAL SD CARD on his computer. Who knows you may get erased... i didn't.
Eternal sd should be fine, but you can save if you have like super-duper important items there.
Well 1st off u would b better off looking for the answer in galaxy tab forum and from what I know thar if u use mini kies it doesnt wipe your memory

You should start off by reading the stickies in the Development section

Thanks, so I guess its safe to update.
And I did read through all of the stickies and I did do thourough searches through this forum and I did not find a clear anwser so to those saying go look at the stickies isn't going to help, just simply stating an answer is much faster/easier way to get an answer. Just saying yes or no or providing a link is much easier than saying you should look at the stickies.

Im not saying it to be a jerk . Im saying look at the stickies so you dont F up your phone . Just back up your data as usual and you could use mini kies to update . Or you could flash a pre-rooted custom rom found in the Dev section. Make sure you familiarize yourself with odin (I use v1.3 /most stable from my exp.).

Ohh, well thanks for helping out then. I just responded like that because I grew tired of responces like that and one of the responces told me to look at the galaxy tab forum which really doesn't even make any sense. Ill probably just update my brothers phone because I dont want to mess with it and accidentally delete important information. Ill be flashing custom roms on my galaxy s 4g though once krylon gets cwm or something else up and running on this phone. Its a shame that there aren't any devs other than him working on this phone.

CWM not suppoted for Galaxy y
From a google search, as of Nov. 19th of 2011 there are only odin flashable roms for your phone. CWM is not supported for your phone. Whether the version that flashed to your phone through RomManager will work or not i cannot say as i don't own a galaxy 'y.' And i can only assume that it could cause an issue. Hope you are able to make friends with a dev and they are able /willing to help you out.. There are also other threads in this forum and others related to your problem. Maybe your could look there. I know of someone trying to get some custom roms on your phone on another forum and they were trying to talk someone through root and getting a back up of the phone's original rom.
I still have under the allotted amount of posts to give you a link but if you just google "custom roms for galaxy y" you should be able to find some decent things. Hope i helped in some way.

Quick S II Questions New Owner

Hey guys I'm getting a S II today through Asurion since my Sensation broke and they didn't have any Sensations left so they offered me an HTC Amaze or S II and I took the S II. I am on the T-Mobile network. Anyways to my question as far as rooting can I use the method in this video:
http://galaxys2root.com/t-mobile-gal...y-s2-sgh-t989/
Also, I can just download gapps and the CM9 nightly and place on SD card and flash through CWM like any other phone right?
Lastly, in anticipation of receiving my S II I've been reading these forums and I noticed that Samsung has included some type of ROM flash counter that counts how many times you flash different FW's/ROMs. Is there any precautions I need to take or anything like that or just flash CM9 like you would flash it on any other phone? Thanks in advance!

FYI, it appears that you already know that the T-mobile USA Galaxy S II is the SGH-T989? Well, that phone has its own forum. This is the forum for the GT-I9100, which is the international version. Firmwares/ROMs and kernels are NOT compatible between the two.

New to Android and This is all Chinese to Me, help?

Haven't been on this forum in years and now back. Looking at getting the Galaxy S3 from ATT as the new iphone doesn't seem worth it after all this wait. I have never used any android device before so know nothing about their OS or anything really. I've used HTC Tilt2 device which was probably my last device on this forum and flashed roms and all that just fine. Looking on here though for the past hour i can't find like a tutorial on how to flash roms? Do i need to unlock my stock phone first?
I see people talk about using Odin which sounds like this is a flashing software for roms?
I'm really interested in flashing this rom, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1797334 as it seems like a stock rom but with all the upgrades in speed/stability/etc. How would i do this and safely?
What are the fail safe procedures such as i get a bad flash what do i do? Phone doesn't finish flash and gets stuck on boot logo what do i do? If im at work and this happens can i fix it via SD card while on the go?
I remember there usually being a sticky that answers this kind of stuff but have read all the stickies for this sub-forum device and found none that in layman's terms describes the above?
I will be reading much more on this site trying to figure this thing out but this really all is Chinese to me as i know nothing about android and their OS or flashing procedures. Remember the days of a simple rom flash on my Tilt2 device took about 30 seconds no brainer. I some how can't understand this stuff though. Greatly appreciate if anyone can answer the above questions and/or point me in the right directions as a total 100% noob to android and this phone. Thank you for your time.
Unless you want a bricked device....do not flash any roms from this section! These are for the international variant only!

Having problems moving apps to SD on my rooted Cricket SGS3

Hoping someone can help me figure out the easiest way to move my larger games (and save data, if applicable) from my internal memory to the 64gb external SD card I originally planned on using it all for.. I recently rooted my phone and the first thing I wanted to get done is this memory move. Been having nothing but problems so far.. I saw a video showing someone using a program called GL to SD and it looked easy but I keep getting 'insufficient storage space' errors when I try downloading it off the play store. I tried side loading it too but received another similar error only after successfully downloading it, then trying to install.. Something seems to be blocking this program from working, regardless..
Anyway, also tried Link2SD to no avail and I was just hoping someone here may be able to help me a bit, kinda new to the scene here.. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Do you mean something like "directory bind" on xda?
What android version do you have? Is it a gt-i9300?

I actually have the Cricket version, so it's the SCH-R530C GS3... I'll go into a program like App2Sd or Link2SD and I keep getting the 'your device is not supported because your device has a primary external storage which is emulated form the internal storage' error.. Not sure about 'directory bind' or what that means, sorry, I'm pretty new to this..

OK this is the i9300 forum, so probably wrong place?
But by version, I meant Android. 4.0.4, 4.1.1, 4.1.2 etc? Because Directory bind works up to 4.1.2 but not 4.2.1

Sweet. I'll give er a go.. Thanks again!
Hmm... I was able to download the program but it again tells me 'out of space' when I try installing the program. I have over 2gb left on my internal memory.. any ideas why I keep having this problem?
Something you did with the other apps probably. Revert. But you may have to reset

Edit. Nevermind. Thanks again f or the suggestion..
Alright, I have a new dilemma it would seem.. I just used ROM manager to flash the newest cyanogenmod ROM to my phone. The first time I did it, it successfully backed up my system data, then errored out after trying attempting to backup user data. I went back in and made sure to back up everything via Titanium Backup, then retried flashing this time without selecting backup (still chose to wipe cache/dalvik. Everything seemed to be going fine after that, it installed the ROM successfully but after booting up again (with the new cyanogenmod logo and everything), I keep getting 2 errors that keep popping up... 1) Unfortunately, the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped. and then 2) Unfortunately, Setup Wizard has stopped.. Anyone know what this could be or how to go about fixing this possibly? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

As said you are in the wrong forum any firmware roms or mods from here may brick your phone as its not an I9300 .
See sticky top of the page .

Oh. Thanks, sorry about that. Could you be so kind as to point me to the correct forum here on XDA possibly? My phone is pretty much bricked right now and I need it for work tomorrow. This is the kind of thing I was worried about when I decided to ROOT this thing. I'm freakin out right now.. I've asked this same questing on the Cricket Users forum and noone has helped me just yet..
EDIT: without having to flash anything new, possibly you could tell me how to revert back to what I originally had without too much trouble? I searched these forums to find nothing at all for the Cricket version. I did my homework before flashing the rom and it was definetly okayed for my phone. Again, any help would be a life saver.. Would it be advisable to install the original root package from my sd card again? Could that hurt anything?
