- Apply udpate from ADB
- Apply update from external SD Card
- Apply update from internal SD Card
- Wipe data\factory reset
- Wipe cache partition
- System partition check --> when i do this, it drops me back with this message: "system have been Root!".

Looks like you should be able to grab the stock rom update, put it on an SD card, and use the recovery to apply the update.

I started up my Gtab today (running ICS 4.0.x), and it keeps popping up stating "Encryption unsuccessful
Encryption was interrupted and can't complete. As a result the data on your tablet is no longer accessible.
To resume using your tablet, you must perform a factory reset. When you setup your tablet after the reset, you'll have an opportunity to restore any data that was backed up to your Google Account."
WTF?
I tried booting into recovery mode, but it hangs after stating "Recovery key detected, Booting recovery kernel image"
That's all it does....
Any suggestions on how to correct this?
Thanks ahead of time...

1. As the message says you'll most probably have to do a "wipe data/factory reset" in CWM. Run the command in this post.
2. Which version of CWM do you have?
Im not certain what version CWM is but it was the most up to date at the time. I cant access CWM as it sits now.
Should I try to use NVflash to rerun the Full_Stock_NVFlash_CWM_5504_Touch-1, just as I did before I installed ICS?...then reinstall the rom?
I can not access CWM...it locks up after stating "booting recovery kernel image"

The usual reason for that error message on ICS is a corrupted /data partition. To fix it you'll have to do either a "wipe data/factory reset" or a repartition the internal SD card in CWM.

The most common reason for that is
a) using the wrong version of CWM for the bootloader installed on the system--ie. using a recovery containing a 1.2 kernel on a 1.1 bootloader or vice-versa.
OR
b) a corrupted recovery partition.
To fix both on ICS--esp. if you've used the nvflash package in the TeamDRH ICS OP--try reloading only CWM-5.5.0.4Beta15 using nvflash.
Can you tell me what you were doing before all this happened? I can understand the /data partition becoming corrupt, or, the recovery kernel being the wrong one (or the partition being bad), but, I can't figure out how both can happen at the same time without something explicitly being done to cause it.
Not sure if it helps but I am also getting this error, I will update as I attempt to troubleshoot.
ROM: G_Harmony_ICSv1.5(120)(SuperCharged) (4.0.4)
CWM: 2.5.1.1-bekit-0.8
I got both errors but the second was solved by unplugging my computers USB cable from the g-tab.
(I can not access CWM...it locks up after stating "booting recovery kernel image") SOLVED
Steps:
1. From the settings picked factory reset loose all data and SD card data.
2. Reboot to recovery (CWM).
3. Formatted the internal SD card and ExSD card using CWM.
4. Mounted SD card on computer using USB cable connected to the G-Tab.
5. Let windows format the SD card. (Was this bad?)
6. Loaded ROM.zip file over to SD card from computer.
7. wipe data/factory reset.
8. wipe cache partition.
9. install zip from SD card -> coose zip from sdcard -> G_Harmony_ICSv1.5(120)(SuperCharged).zip
10. Install.
11. Reboot.
12. Error screen "Encryption unsuccessful Encryption was interrupted and can't complete. As a result the data on your tablet is no longer accessible...." "Press this button to do a factory reset"
13. Press the button to the same results.

UPDATE 1:
When I did a rewipe i found that when i did the data wipe is said:
-- Wiping data...
Formatting DATA...
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk3p2
(No such file or directory)
Error mounting /data/!
Skipping format...
Formatting CACHE:...
Formatting SDEXT:...
No app2sd partition found. Skipping format of /sd-ext.
Formatting SDCARD:/android_secure...
Data wipe complete.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Could it be that when I used my computer to format the SD card I did it wrong?
UPDATE 2:
I was browsing around the CWM options and I found:
advanced -> Partition SD Card
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So I did that and then a data wipe again, and this time it said:
-- Wiping data...
Formatting DATA...
<<NOTE THE LACK OF ERRORS>>
Formatting CACHE:...
Formatting SDEXT:...
No app2sd partition found. Skipping format of /sd-ext.
Formatting SDCARD:/android_secure...
Data wipe complete.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I am hoping things should work now, I picked 2GB with a 0MB swap.
UPDATE 3:
Ok... should have figured that deleted my SD card files including my ROM "G_Harmony_ICSv1.5(120)(SuperCharged).zip" so I mounted it and copied it over again.
(I also did some mounting and unmounted and may have lost it there.)
UPDATE 4:
IT WORKS!! fixed, must have been because I formatted out the data partition, but CWM fixed this for me!
I hope this helps others with the same issue.

you say you 'failed at the last second' when trying to install CM10... what actually happened?
you say you can access android recovery so I would initially try a factory reset (on the first page of recovery) 'wipe data/factory reset' and see where that gets you
report back if you require any more help :good:

I tried the wipe data/factory reset and all it does is finish up and upon reboot just hangs at the boot screen.
As for what actually happened when it failed, I got the following error
"set_perm: some changes failed"

You could try a fresh install of the CM10 rom that you have installed but first you need to do a full system wipe (go into recovery>select 'mounts and storage'> format the following >>> data, system, osh, preinstall and cache)
What else do you have installed on your sd card (that you can see in Recovery)... if the install fails again you're going to have to go back and instal a rom that you know will work (if you haven't got any on the internal sd card you are going to have to install one)

You're going to have to install it on your phone first. As your not able to start up your phone you are going to have to take your external sd card out of your phone and, using a card reader, install the rom that you want on your external card from your pc and then put it back into your phone and access recovery again.
I would recommend that you do a full system wipe before installing the Rom. After you have done the wipe go to 'install zip from sd card' and instead of selecting 'install zip from internal' just select 'choose zip from sd card' and you should be able to see the rom that you installed on your external card.

If this were me now, I would be trying a stable proven rom like CM7.2 (link here http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=olympus)
Repeat the installation process and make sure you're doing a full system wipe first.
Do not install Gapps with rom... let's get your phone working first. (just reread your post... after you've installed the rom your phone should not reboot itself?)
I rooted my s4 successfully and installed rom manager, super su.. etc. When I boot into recovery I don't get the options many instructions call for like "Install zip from SD".
All I get are:
reboot system now
apply update from adb
apply update from external storage
wipe data / factory
wipe cache partition
apply update from cache
Someone suggested I download goo manager, and install open recovery script but that made no difference, still the same options. And if I select "apply update from external storage" and target the rom, it fails on "verification.." and restarts.
Anyone have any ideas for me? I have the cm10 rom and gapps ready to go, just need to see "install from SD".
Thanks

Figured this out, thank you,,,
I think I did something stupid.
I wanted to install a new ROM (OmniROM) and wanted a fresh device.
So I went into ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.2.2 and went to the "Mounts and Storage" menu.
Here I did a format of all the storage available (except /external_sd)
To sum it up:
- format /cache
- format /system
- format /data
- format /preload
- format /sdcard
- format /data and /data/media
After this I went on and tried to install OmniRom. But I receive an "Installation aborted" error.
When I try to reboot the device it tells me:
Root access possibly lost. Fix? THIS CAN NOT BE ONDONE.
- No
- Yes - Fix root (/system/xbin/su)
- +++++Go Back+++++
I tried installing an other ROM (ArchiDroid 2.3) This installation process starts and I get through the wizard.
But the device keeps booting to ClockworkMod Recovery..
I'm having the feeling I ****ed up and deleted some necessary system files.
Is there a way to fix this brick?
I appreciate any help!
Managed to fix it.
I still had a full CWM backup from when I first rooted the phone. (1,5 year ago)
It was like a trip back in time
Hello,
I recently got a Oneplus X. Today, I got a 17mb OTA update after downloading the update I started installing the update even though it said phone is rooted and update might not install. I still tried installing it and the update failed. Now I am stuck on the screen with these options -
internal storage,
install from adb,
wipe data and cache,
advanced,
exit
How do I start my phone. Sorry I am completely new to android so I don't know what to do so please help me.
Basically now you are in recovery mode. Download from here the official rom for your phone. Put it on a sdcard or , if the computer recognize your phone, put the downloaded file on the internal memory. Then, select from the recovery "install from internal storage" and select the downloaded file. It should restore your phone to factory mode.
