I've used rom toolbox forever now for changing system fonts. Well today I decide to change again. RT was recently updated, and after rebooting to apply the font, my vivid now gets stuck at the at&t animation. Won't go past. I've done several reboots and battery pulls to no avail. My phone is unlocked and rooted, but other than doing those two things I'm a complete noob. I have no idea how to fix this.

If you are rooted i take it you have cwm recovery or something similar. If so boot to recovery and wipe cache and dalvic cache. May work may, not let me know

HTC I'm assuming
Are you Soff
If so boot into recovery and restore last backup

And that don't relock bootloder and run the stock ruu , it has yet to fail me with errors
I'm s-on. I wasn't comfortable trying to s-off. I emailed the rom toolbox Dev and the only suggestion he had that was feasible was to flash a new rom. I'm game to try it, I just have no idea how to pick one or install it. Senseless sounds good to me, and one with a better camera would be great. Lte isn't needed, it'll never be available here anyway.
Edit: wiping both cashe did nothing. Still sitting at "rethink possible."

Your just soft bricked. I've done it myself, go messing with something and bam the phone won't boot. It easily fixable by flashing a rom. Actually wiping data might be an even easier fix. I deleted some bloat and caused a boot loop, clearing the cache didn't work either but when I wiped again all is good.

How long is it sitting at that screen? You may want to do a factory data reset. You will lose any settings, app and messages you had but at least you may get booted
I managed to flash the virtuous Inquisition rom. But I have no signal and no data connection.
And yes I had my sim card in lol.

OK I had VI installed and running great last night. Got my signal fixed, spent around 5 hours getting my phone back to where it was. I wake up this morning, accidentally dropped my phone and now it doesn't have a signal again...
OK I can get a signal but it's VERY weak, not strong enough for anything really. But this area is notorious for having a crap signal.

Hello,
I have gotten the stock ICS rom from samfirmware.com, Installed using ODIN and it all went green.
However, after restart the touch screen is not working !
I have tried the following:
1. First the Default (XXX) ICS rom
2. Second, the Actual ATT ICS rom
3. Flashed CWM and it is working
4. Then tried AOKP unofficial rom, not starting
No luck so far, any help is much appreciated please.
The touch screen was working after step 3?

What version of odin did you use? The roms look ok. If you didn't use ver 1.85 download that and re flash the Rom.

It is the Odin version I have used,
One more note now, am not sure if that is normal if not.but after the latest flash ( preceded by a data wipe and format ) I can now see zip file I have placed on sdcard but can't access them for flashing and/or ad new zip files from pc
In cwm do a factory reset, wipe and format system and data and then boot. I'm hoping that will solve the problem.

Tried,booted, "SAMASUNG"screen only ( as expected sicne i formatted the system ), then re-flushed the ATT ICS and same output
Am trying to get a new ROM flashed, but when the device powers up [ without me going through the wizard ], i can't write anything to SD from my PC.
Any info around here about flashing CM or AOKP using ODIN for this I957 ?
Not with Odin that I'm aware of. All are zip files and would go thru cwm. If you get only to the Samsung logo, my experience has been a factory reset usually gets you past that and if that doesn't work flashing the stock rom with Odin does. And I'd flash the honeycomb rom and bring it back to they way I bought it, then upgrade to ics

Tried the honeycomb step, still same problem
As for Booting to samsung screen .. i did format /system as suggested, so there will be no system to boot to i think
I'm at a loss, you've tried everything that has gotten me beyond the boot screen.
Anyone else have any ideas?

I should mention something that has gotten me worried, i flashed a TWRP recovery to check if the touch would work there, but it didn't.
Not sure if i should be worried about HW now, or try another TWRP for instance? Or perhaps TWRP shares another flawed tab wide configuration with the Android image ?
It's not twrp, I use it on my tab and it Works fine. If you were the only one who has this problem I'd say hardware for sure. But at least one other person has the same problem after updating to ics. It seems like there something with the firmware interfacing with the touch screen.

Good question. One of the guys couldn't get the touch screen to work in twrp either. It sounds like a hardware issue but to have a few guys have the same problem after installing ics? I don't know? Something's doing it which I can't figure out

Think the other colleague did say he found someone elsewhere who resolved the problem by reverting to an older backup he had, which gives me hope that this is no hw issue
And this was my first time to flash any ROM without a backup first, thought a stock update would be fine !!
Can I use adb for instance to verify if it was a hardware issue,if so then any help is appreciated

5 days ago, I suddenly found my phone off. I turned it on and it then it kept restarting itself. I tried to remove and re-put the battery, it still kept on restarting itself. My brother tried to do some stuff like clicking on the down-volume + power, but whatever he chose after that, a hat showed up and nothing happened for 30 mins. He tried again and again, the damn hat is all we got. So we decided to wait for my father to come home this Saturday, I took off my SIM card and left the phone, the next day I turned on the phone, it didn't restart itself, so I was happy and all, then I inserted the SIM card, it went back to restarting itself. I didn't touch the phone since then, but today, I took off the SIM card, and the phone is working well, I'm even writing this from my phone. So, what should I do now?
Oh yeah, I installed an AntiVirus a while ago (yes I didn't have one), and it detected a threat which I really don't understand: Unsecure privilege mode detected. Your phone is running in High Privilege mode (i.e., it has been rooted). We recommend using only genuine firmware.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

Prior to antivirus installed, did the phone restarted itself? The first step, I would recommend remove the antivirus to see the problem still persist. Which ROM do you currently use?
Sent from my Nexus One using xda app-developers app
With or without the Anti-virus installed, the phone keeps restarting itself as long as the SIM card is inserted.
ROM Manager v5.5.2.3

Are you using GB or ICS or JB ROM? ROM manager doesn't affect the restarting problem, I think.

What's your radio version? Look in the about phone for the baseband version. If you have the latest baseband version 5.08.04 then try to flash a different ROM to see the problem still persist, making sure you do full wipes before flashing.

Hey guys, I've been having those issues since flashing trickdroid mods. Before that i was using cm 10.1 and everything was fine. Later on i tryed PA, PAC, ARHD and a newer CM Version and i still have reboots while accessing the play store installing an app or just turning my phone to landscape mode. Also there are many fcs and heating issues now and then. I did so many full wipes and tried not restoring anything via titanium and still my phone won't be stable at all.
Anyone know what to do? Heeeeelp
Sent from my One using xda app-developers app
It's a problem about some apps.
I'm running trickdroid without any prob.
Haven't had issues for a while but then, again reboots!
Installed Unified Remote via play store (dont think it matters which app I want to install at all), after download completed and install progress began, reboot. Just bootet, received notification from xda app, tapped notification and again reboot.
It's really annoying. Any idea? Maybe switching back to stock or wiping my virtual SD card next time i flash? What might cause this problem and what might help me solve this?
Please!

It looks like you don't have a custom recovery installed. Try installing one, you know how I presume.
Isnt that going back to rooting my phone? I wanna stay unrooted. If i unrooted my phone i should be able to update my phone normally from my About phone-Update software. It installs but resets back to the stock

The only thought is you may have wrong recovery. I would suggest to run ruu for ATT if you can or Soff and then do it
I ran the ruu for at&t already. Domt get me wrong the phone works great i just wanna update it
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Then that's odd issue. Your other options will be to install custom recovery and sideload or manually install OTA file.
