So i tried installing http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1871858 and followed the instructions. It was all good as i installed it but after i clicked reboot system now it got stuck at the LG boot screen. I haven't backed up my contacts and data from the phone so if there is a fix i would prefer it if i didn't have to lose all my data. Also i'm pretty new to android so can you write clear instructions on how to fix it please.
I have done the exactly the same thing and reflashed firmware with KDZ it worked fine after flashing, and there is no other way to restore even if u made backup with custom recovery

Thank you. It's all fixed now, if anyone else runs into the same problem follow the steps on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1861854 but you need to find a kdz file through somewhere else. Also there's a step missing so read the comments before carrying out the process.
You can close this thread now
Glad I've helped.
No need deleting this threat maybe someone else will find this useful.

-I'm located in the philippines and I dont see any rom for my country all i remember is that I had v10b.
-im not sure if my phone is using ext3/or ext4 but i think its ext4 since im using cyanogenmod. do i need to set it back to ext3 first?

it will restore your phone back to stock
after nvflashing v10b back on your phone, you can restore your backup if you like to. root and clockworkmod must be installed first though. To install clockworkmod you can also download the clockworkmod recovery img and replace recovery.img in the nvflash files. this will install cwm directly and you don't need to root your device.
You don't need to convert back to ext3. I'm not even sure if cm7 uses ext4...
The reason why you are not able to restore your backup is because of some bug in cwm with restoring boot.img I think..

i rooted my milestone a few months ago (g.o.t.) and recently i tried to install the shadowsmod gingerbread rom onto it. when i restart the phone it stuck at the Motorola boot logo (M). i can enter recovery mode and do a factory reset but the problem still remains. maybe i just have to flash the stock sbf to fix the issue but the problem is that my battery is almost deplete and that the phone wont charge itself so if i enter the bootloader it'll say: battery Low cannot Program. please help me, i searched hours long for solutions but nothing worked.
Thanks in advance

Have you done a nandroid backup? If so, you must be able to nandroid restore the Milestone, if you still have some batery left. It is usually pretty quick the restore. And if done correctly, your "stone" will be back. Next time flash the phone only when you have a fully charged battery. That would be what I would do.
Hope it helps.
YESS thank you ! i am so stupid : i DID do a nandroid backup but for some reason i forgot it! it works it really works! thanks alot your a lifesaver
Glad I could help . But you went lucky. As soon as I send the reply I though to myself, if the flash is done through .sbfs it must erase the open recovery partition. So, no nandroid restore option. But I guess you where trying to flash the roms from within the open recovery itself. So that way i believe the open recovery partition still remais untoutched. Not shure though.
Anyway, it still worked. And that´s the most important thing.
See you around.
normally if you have this problem after install a new rom, you just need to clear the cache / dalvik cache and it'll fix it
i have the same problem but i installed a rom with Droid 2 recovery bootstrap. before flashing i maked a nandroid backup but i cant get acces to restore. anyone can help me?
just reflash stock firmware. i have Droid2 Global and haved same problem but, reflashed stock firmware, root and after install bootstrap recovery, worked for me. may be helped you?
Hello
Yesterday I ROOTED my phone, and have been trying to find a way to transfer my apps to my SD Card by unsuccessfully following various Tutorials.
I got fed up and tried to do a factory reset using the CWM v5.0.2.6. I did a data/factory reset. I did not realise that the various formats of a second partition would wipe my entire SD card and the factory reset did not go well.
Since that moment my phone has continually cycled from the Samsung logo, to the flying logo and back to the Samsung logo.
However I did a backup of my SD Card yesterday and I tried to use that backup to restore my phone. But no joy.
Is my phone dead?

Try to flash another Custom ROM but first make sure you do all the wipes and then install the ROM. Again do all the 3 wipes and reboot. This might work else try to use Odin and flash your Stock ROM first and see if everything is fine. If so, then try to root your Phone and then use Link2sd to move apps to sd card
OK
This is now serious, I have royally stuffed my phone.
Could somebody please explain what Odin is and what I need to use it and get my phone to work again?
Please.

I have sucessfully (?) followed a tutorial on how to use Odin and a CWN recovery TAR file. ODIN did its thing and said that I had Passed.
However the tutorial did not say what to do next. My phone is cycling through the samsung and re-boot sequence and has done so for well over an hour.
Any ideas what I do next?
Cheers

Yeah! After flashing an official firmware via Odin you may get a bootloop.
Solution: boot into stock recovery and do wipe data/factore reset and wipe cache partition
So do it always when you finish the procedure
I went to the SamMobile forum and downloaded the stock ROM for the UK and used Odin. However it was for Orange and not Virgin, who I bought my phone from The procedure worked, according to Odin.
I now have an Orange Samsung Ace.
The phone has booted up and all seems well.
Not sure if I will incur any extra charges with an Orange phone rather than a Virgin phone. But it has booted up.
What must I do to make sure this never happens again?

No extra charges.
Read read read read and...READ carefully and then READ again and finally have a usable CWM backup
Avoid hard scripts like a2sdgui use the simpest scripts that you can, that don't touch you dalvik-cache partition e.g. If you wipe data/dalvik partiuon you might get troubles with a2sd script

I now have the joy of an unrooted phone. :-/
Looks like I will have to start this merry-go-round again just so that I can get my apps off the phone and onto the SD card.
I tried to install the AllianceROM_KK_v1, didn't know the ROM was a little more than 1.2GB, but my computer probably somehow shut the download to less than 700MB thinking it was downloaded completely. But when on safestrap, I didnt make any backup and just tried to flash it after factory resetting it. Obviously, it didn't sucessfully flashed it and now boot loop. Can installed the safestrap apk right from the recovery thing, I can't seem to get on the safestrap recovery. Can someone please help me soon as possible.
Khai.

You're going to have to do the MLG restore. See the link in my signature for info on how to do it and links to where you can get the stuff you'll need.
If you don't want to attempt the MLG restore, you'll have to go the the Samsung Experience Center at your local Best Buy and have them reflash it for you.
thankz man. I am working on it now. It's already 2:39 AM here now. real late. any way, thank you bro for the awesome prompt answer.
My phone is stuck on recovery whatever I do.
D410 V10C BOUGHT ON UAE(CM12 BY QUARX)
Here is what I did.
first I reverted to lg stock which is rooted (using my backup from twrp)
then I downloaded the software update(lollipop)
then play clash of clans a bit XD
download was done
then I was asked to install it now or later
I tapped now.
then I was hoping that it will install all by itself (like i'll just wait for 2 reboots that is expected)
but that did not happen
what happened was that the phone rebooted and rebooted to twrp. and nothing happens.
I can use the twrp though
Please help me I need a working phone.... I'm not rushing you guys but please if someone can ASAP.
What i tried so far.
I tried to restore my backup again.
but still every time i reboot i just keep on going on the recovery
why is that? how can i fix that? can I fix that on my phone only? or do i really need a computer.
will flashing kdz help me?
THANKS FOR ANY REPLY!!!
I WILL HIGHLY APPRECIATE IT PROMISE.

Hi, i did the same mistake, tried to install the v10d update to v10b rom with root and twrp installed on my d405n. This guide helped me, but a dev should confirm it too: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2451696 , i used the twrp built-in terminal method. I am not responsible if you brick your device (for e.: if you make any mistake in the script). Good Luck! After the procedure i wiped evrything in twrp, the i installed a clean rom.
