[Q] A Little Help Needed.... - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, I kinda messed up my Note.
I know i should be asking this in the Dev page but seeing as i am new member here i am not "allowed" at the moment.
If there is anyone out there that can help me out, it will be greatly appreciated, and now the ordeal:
I have a (to my knowledge) KKA 2.3.6 Stock rom. I was feeling a lil over zealous and thinking of rooting it. I did the zerg method got it rooted. Then i saw the "ICS_transition-KKA-stock" file in the development page.
Now feeling like the lord of the Note, i thought to myself how hard can this be, I rebooted in recovery and installed from zip. Next thing i know i restarted my phone and all is well UNTIL NOW...........the phone booted up first but every app was going force close, i somehow got my phone to go into recovery thinking i can uninstall the "ICS_transition-KKA-stock" from it but there is no option so i rebooted again and now its stuck on BOOT animation. SIGH
SO if there is anyone out there that help me out, i will greatly appreciate it. I backed up all my stuff before i felt like Christopher Columbus so if need be ill be ok to deleting everything.
I tried odin already and no luck......
Thank you and happy Holidays!!!

Try a factory reset/wipe data from recovery

I just did, i tried wipe cache and partition and even the advance section wipe as well. As soon as i reboot it gets stuck on the samsung logo animation.....

Did you also try the 'wipe data/factory reset' option?

Yes sir, tried the 2 wipes and the one in advanced option as well. After reboot the animation is on a loop, the sound only comes once but the vid is looping. I dont know if its recoverable now.....
Thanks for the suggestion though!!!

If you can boot into download mode you can always fix things. I messed up a couple of times and just flashed back to a Samsung full stock firmware using Odin.
Try this:

Can anyone help, please?

Sorry to everyone in advance, I am new to this. I rooted me sprint hero, flashed a new recovery image, and flashed a new ROM. I don't know what I did, but now everytime I try to boot, my phone freezes. Is there anything that I can do to fix this? I should also tell you that, somehow everything that was on my sd card got wiped off.
Thanks.
Did you try wiping first? You might just try wiping the reinstalling the ROM. Fixes a lot of these kinds of hangups. Hold down home when booting and choose wipe all(i cant get to the menu to tell you what the menu says exactly as im on the phone typing this).
What steps did you follow and what ROM did you flash?
Do you have Apps2sd enabled? Mine freezes if I set it to an ext3 or 4 partition, Hero kenerel doesn't support those file systems...yet.
EDIT:
I guess I should elaborate on a solution.
Go back into recovery. Chose format SD card. Set SWAP and EXT Parts to 0. Press home to format. Then Format again set swap to whatever, i don't think we use it yet so 0 is fine, set ext2 to 512 or however much you need for your apps. Then press home again to format again.
Reboot. see what happens.
Are you sure it is freezing?
The first boot can take a long time, is it "freezing" on HTC?
Give a little more detail..
Which rom, which recovery? Did you wipe everything, or nothing, etc.
Awesome! Thank you very much. That worked! Again, I'm sorry for my idiocy.
Back Up
You could just go into recovery mode (hold down the home key when you boot), select wipe then I believe it is the first option to factory reset the phone. Itll run its process then inform you upon completion. Then go ahead and start installing the rom over again. What rom are you using anyway?
Things like this happen a lot but I've found that people on here are pretty quick to help out.
Quick tip, back up often. It saves you a lot of headaches.

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img(whatever its called, easiest to just rename it recovery.img)
Those are the only stock imgs there are, so I'd re-erase everything and try reflashing each img again. I think you can leave out cache. I realize its not your first phone, or an important one, but it's a pretty noob thing to do, not reading and searching first. Hope you get it working. If you need drivers try Sprints website. Also make sure you erased recovery in fastboot. fastboot erase recovery.

Have you tried booting up with just erasing the recovery? Flash system, userdata, boot etc, just leave out recovery and try. If I remember correctly we could erase recovery and not reflash it and still boot up, as the Cricket version had no recovery, just fastboot.

yeah I did try and boot without recovery but I got to the little android guy with the box and then it just started looping again.
I had to go out so I couldn't mess with it but I'll try the above later thanks for the reply.
And yeah I know that was stupid but I really didn't think it would even flash the recovery but it was still stupid none the less.
I got it fixed thanks for the replys.

Follow the fast boot stock flash or openzio guide and you should be gold. If you can hit fastboot your only soft bricked.

Sprint SPH-P100 Boot Problem

Here is what I do know;
Sprint Galaxy Tab SPH-P100
Gingerbread
Boots as far as to display Samsung logo, then Sprint animation, then Samsung animation repeatedly.
Was said to be working fine until this just happened. No flashing or modding attempted.
I am not familiar with Android at all but, I am reading. As far as I can tell the Odin/Heimdall looks like my best option if I can get it in download mode from this thread;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17817287&postcount=2
Would this be correct?
Yes. The instruction looks good an it is for cdma sprint tab.
But before you follow that instruction, please try to do cache data wipe, and factory reset wipe on recovery mode (press power and volume up).
If you don't get any error message after doing the reset, try to reboot again before you continue flashing, sometimes doing reset solves the problem.
If you get some error message after the reset, you may need to do repartition by adding pit file along with flashing the rom.
Tyvm, I will give that a try tonight.
I have a Samsung Omnia II I8000L and this tab is way different from that. The help is appreciated.
Well, the reprogramming went just fine but, if the Tab is turned off completely, not in standby, then it goes back to the same problem it started with.
I think I may try to roll back to an earlier build. Managed to get EA24 Odin flash to try with.
No joy. All I manage to get is a great view of the Samsung and Sprint logos. To think I was so happy when I found this thing was soft bricked... :/
None of the recovery stuff has never worked either, all errors. Wipe cache, reset to factory... Nadda. Lots of "Failed to mount E:..." sort of stuff.
No idea where to go from here.

Sounds like a hardware problem. I had similar issues and had to send it to Samsung. Try repartitioning with the pit file and a full stock package. If that doesn't help its most likely hardware.

[Q] Bootloop - Samsung Galaxy S5830 B with CM10.1.6

Hello all
First of all, I'd like to say that I've spent a lot of time searching through XDA and other websites on the internet, and so far I didn't find a solution to my problem, and that's why I'm creating this new thread.
I have a Galaxy Ace S5830B and just flashed Mardon's version of CM10.1.6 ROM in it, following every single step on his guide, using CWM 5.0.2.6.
I made sure that before flashing the new ROM I wiped the whole thing, clearing cache, dalvik cache, formatting /system and doing the factory reset.
I did not manually flash any kernel.
Everything runs smoothly and ok, just like all compliments the ROM gets on his topic, except for when I have to shut the phone down.
Once it is shut down and I'm powering it back on it gets into a boot loop that won't go past the Samsung logo. It means that the Samsung logo goes on, fades off and then it loops back to it, and the Cyanogenmod blue circle loading animation never comes.
It only works when I get back into CWM and hit "reboot system now" . Then it reboots normally.
I'd just like it to act normally, booting normally straight from a powered off state without having to go through CWM everytime I need to switch the phone on. That's because it's my father's phone, and having him getting into CWM every now and then after a battery run off is too risky, you know what I mean.
Any help will be very very much appreciated.
Thank you
Riggs

When you are using CM10.1 by Mardon, NEVER WIPE DATA/FACTORY RESET!! ...You should fix your problem flashing again the rom
The ROMs are already preconfigured and when you wipe data/factory reset, all those settings will be lost and the device won't be able to boot successfully again
Oh, nice to know that! I'll try it soon, then I'll post the results.

A715F stuck in bootloop. Can i fix it without losing data or at least recover it before a reset? (bootloader unlocked)

Hello! I apologize if the terminology won't be correct but i'm not very tech savvy and i'm learning while trying to fix this mess
I have this rooted Samsung A715F (no custom rom) given to me by my cousin some time ago (he can't help me).
The day before yesterday it started boot-looping out the blue and i initially wiped the cache partition without success then i tried to flash the last firmware with Odin after reading some guides here, uploading the HOME_CSC to not lose my data, I've some important pictures i would like not to lose (I know, not making a backup was stupid).
But the problem wasn't solved, the only difference is a new screen during the boot saying: "One ui error" and another "Can't load android system your data may be corrupted[...] where i can select Try again, factory data reset and recovery logs".
Luckily i still can access Download and Recovery mode but i don't really know what to do, i tried to download the firmware flash from other sources but nothing... and i'm pretty sure TWRP isn't installed.
Is there anything i can do before wiping data? Please, please help me
Of course no.
Hard reset and Davlik cache clean is required.
