[Q] No recovery possible

So I had my O2x running a custom 2.3 rom fine with custom kernel for the past month and I noticed a kernel upgrade.
I installed this kernel through CWM and when the phone booted the home screen (I was on ADW launcher) a lot of things crashed (spritebackup, app_unveil or something,...).
Right now I can connect with a computer, but I have no homescreen, I can still access my SDcard and internel memory.
I tried to reboot it back into CWM to install the regular kernel again, but CWM is gone and I get the system/upgrade screen.
I also can't connect to the phone with ADB (means I cant install CWM).
Any tips?

Tried to flash stock rom?

Hold your powerkey pressed a litte bit longer (release it when the second LG logo appears) and it should boot into recovery.
In recovery, wipe cache and reinstall ROM and kernel

First thing I did yesterday was flash latest baseband (0725), the phone rebooted fine, it seems to be a mix of that custom rom I had and standard android...
Going to have to flash CWM again and custom rom after.
I'll update as it progresses!

Not able to install paranoid on my note

hi
i m not able to install paranoid (any version) on my galaxy note... but rest of the custom roms are working fine...
everytime i install paranoid rom, it gets struck at the boot samsung logo and i cant even access to cwm recovery..
then the only option left for me is to revert back to stock 2.3.6 via odin and then root
is there any developer or expert who can rectify the problem so that i may be able to install paranoid on my note

Can you provide more info, what kernel and rom are you using to flash PA?

Hi
I tried it from ics (crash v8.1, liquid black 3.2, criskelorom v9, fusion Tom 2.5, rocket Tom v10) ........ no result
I tried it from the gb 2.3.6 (stock).... no result
I used clockworkmod recovery... abyss kernel
Everytime the same problem hung on the boot logo... and no access to clockworkmod recovery....

Go back to gingerbread, root and install clockworkmod, put the pa ROM & gapps zip on your sdcard then go into recovery (cwm) factory wipe data 2-3 times, flash ROM then gapps next wipe cache 2-3 times, finally reboot and wait.

Do I need to install abyss kernel to format and wipe or the native 5.0.2.7 recovery is enough.. and is it safe to wipe cache,format factory reset in stock 2.3.6 by cwm recovery 5.0.2.7
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app

It's safe to wipe using a gingerbread kernel in recovery which is exactly what abyss is, a gingerbread kernel. No need to use abyss if you're already on a gingerbread stock ROM.

done .... flashed stock 2.3.6 gb rom... flashed cwm recovery and did the same as u told me to do... but again struck on the boot screen logo...
i cant access recovery but can still access download mode....
even i cant understand where is the problem why paranoid is not working on my note.....confused
can i try installing paranoid without installing gapps..... will that work or not?

when you were on GB stock without rooting did you boot into recovery and wipe data, cache ?
( vol up + home + power ) buttons in combination together take you into recovery. you have to keep pressing till N7000 logo shows up, then u let go and then recovery appears
If you already know and done it then im sorry to repeat.
what method you followed to root GB ?

i used CF-Root-SGN_ZS_MUL_KK1-v5.0-CWM5.rar to root and install recovery...

if you are still on this recovery, get into recovery and wipe data, cache, (advanced ) --- dalvik
give the names of the rom files you have downloaded to flash....

yes working absolutely perfect... and recovery is also acccessable...
stock and all other custom roms are working
only problem when i try to install any damn version of paranoid

you must keep gapps ics ready for flashing with PA v0.4a,
keep both zip files on sd card
get into recovery, wipe as told before
install zip from sd card ( remember the name and keep looking till you find it ) choose zip file,, flash it,
then same thing with gapps , flash
do the wipes again
then reboot phone ( first boot takes time so be patient )
you can use the present recovery or flash abyss kernel - --go to advanced -- reboot recovery ...etc etc ( same proceedure)
if this doesnt work ill tell you a method using CM9 safe kernel tar ( give me some time)

i have already tried this procedure so many times, but everytime after finishing installation, rebooting the phone and damn its struck again at boot logo.....
i think its the kernel and recovery which gets erased during the installation of paranoid thats y it gets struck at boot logo

Maybe you have a corrupted download. Check md5 sum to verify.

[Q] GALAXY S I9000 -boot loop(how to fix?)

(sorry for my English )
the thing is that my Samsung S wont starts ,when i click the power button its starts in CWM RECOVERY and when i press "reboot system now" it enters a boot loop (the logo keeps running over and over and the phone)
before this happened i originally had the stock ROM of my cellular carrier (2.3.3
then i decided to install another rom and kernel (cyanogenmod 10) so i installed first a clean stock rom (2.3.6) via odin
and then the cyanogenmod rom and kernel (up to now its all fine)
after that i wanted to change and install other rom so i installed again the clean stock rom 2.3.6 via odin...and from then it started to boot loop.
i thought that if i will install the kernel again it will be OK ,but it wont..
and now im in the situation that i have described above..
help SOMEONE please=]

it is because the latest CM10 is based on a different partitioning layout than the stock one.. after flashing CM10 once when you go in a boot loop.. go to CWM recovery by using the three button combo and flash CM10 again.. . this time your rom will boot:good:

I installed the kernel and then the stock rom again but now its just bootlooping without getting load up to CWM recovery
so how can i get into CWM recovery????
(i tried VolumeUP+HOME+POWER but it just get into regular recovery...)

pull out your battery for a couple of minutes then replace battery
;hold three button forever or until it goes into recovery if that doesnt work
reflash through odin and do it again or check out darkyrom 10. re this gets flashed through odin

flash darkyrom 10.2 Resurrection edition using odin.. this will give you a GB rom with root
flash CM10 through CWM recovery
reboot.. (you may not be able to boot as of now)
go to CWM recovery again using 3 button combo
flash CM10 again
reboot
this should do the trick

THANK YOU TWO
the Darkys rom 10.2 re was great --- it starts now hahah
i Will try now another rom (not cyagonmod but PilotX)
thank you very muchhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[Q] Bootlop after failed wiping data [Solved]

Hi guys, i need your help..
I was tried to install a custom ROM and i use CWM v6 to install it (i'm on stock ROM | JB 4.3 | FW .205 | locked bootloader | recovery installed : CWM & TWRP), first step i format the /system and is successfull, then the next step wipe data/factory reset but i get stuck process on:
--- wiping data ---
clear /data done.
clear /cache...........
I don't know why, but i've been waiting for 20 minutes and still stuck like that than i decides to turning off the phone with tiny button at bottom of battery (not power button), i turn on the phone again and then i've got bootlop ( what.... where is my recovery ) i didn't noticed the recovery still in there because there is no LED notify when i turn on the phone, just SONY logo :crying:
Is that happen because wiping data didn't completed and causing my recovery also gone ?
So what should i do ? can i get the phone back again ? I have the stock ROM backup on my sd card and on my laptop because before i try to install a custom ROM, i've created current ROM backup with CWM.
please help me guys..

You wiped /system so your recoveries are gone.
On older Recoveries using the wipe to install new rom can take ages so just leave it and eventually it will finish, latest version of Philz (in Bagyusz/Nexus ROMs) seems to fix this issue.
Use DSSMEX triple recovery and use philz not cwm as its a much nicer recovery (but the clean still takes ages as its an older version)
Use flashtool to flash stock rom and start from scratch to re-install custom rom.

You have bootloop because your phone is essentially empty of any OS or recoveries.
Flashtool to stock, find dssmex triple recovery and install that in stock when rooted, load into Philz, clean to install a new ROM and then just wait, it will take a while usually dont worry unless it takes over an hour.
Then flash the custom ROM of choice.

Can I know what Custom ROM are you trying to install?
Sometimes wiping could take time, and I am not sure why. If happens again in the future, just let it be.
As you are using LBL, I am unable to elaborate nor understand how recovery has gone. (WARNING: FOREIGN LANGUAGE) Recoveries for LBL are stored in the ramdisk OR the FOTAkernel. This is due to the fact that Xperia SP does not has an exclusive "recovery" partition in the rootfs. I dont know if wiping data would trash them.
You can easily recover your phone by flashing a stock ftf. You may follow this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56717587&postcount=4

Thanks for your explanation sir :good:
Flashtool to stock means i need .ftf file to restore the stock rom ? is it possible to restore stock rom through nandroid backup file that i've created using cwm ?

Well, the problem is solved. My phone back again and a custom rom has been installed.
