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.

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.

ok so i have rooted my device today, now im trying to install darky's official port rom on my captivate, how do i install it from the recovery mode without hurting and bricking my phone in anyway. I saw a bunch of youtube videos which said to make a backup then wipe data and then installl the zip from sd.
Is this way correct or do i have to do something with odin3 with this rom?

If your phone is rooted and you have CWM on your phone just get to recovery and select install zip from sd card. Select where you put the ROM zip and select it. Simple as that. You can make a backup prior to installing the ROM from ROM manager if you want to do so. I personally do not do it anymore because I change so much and there are issues for restoring if you are not on the same kernel from the backup.
that failed
i tried that twice, installation aborted both times
It shouldn't have. You didn't rename the file to update.zip did you? Are you only rooted with no previous rom?
This is my captivate. There are many like it but this one is mine.
problemmmmm
ok by mistake i touched some touch buttons and it rebooted my phone and is stuck on recovery, everytime i restart/reboot in recovery.
should i pull the battery?
i can get
i can get into download mode
I would use odin one click to flash to 2.1. Then get into recovery mode and flash the rom.
This is my captivate. There are many like it but this one is mine.
can you

Sorry I had to get some sleep. What process did you do to fix your issue? And yes the video was what I was meaning for flashing using odin one click. Glad you got it fixed.
This is my captivate. There are many like it but this one is mine.
I decided to root my phone and try some ROMS last night on my Captivate. Love it by the way except one problem that I can not seem to figure out.
Before I did any flash I used ROM Manager to take 2 backups of my stock ROM and also used Titanium to backup all user apps and data.
Everytime I try to go back to stock and the phone reboots after recovery mode I get the AT&T logo and it never goes anywhere.
How do I get back to stock?
THANK!
If you are trying to restore stock through nancroid backup that won't work. You need to use odin.
What build is your phone? You can find it under your battery, something between 1006-1012
It is 1012. I thought you could just restore from those backups to get back to stock.
I have never used odin before. How do I go about that?
Thanks!
I can not find a good download for Odin. Could somebody provide please?
Thanks!
With your build you need to be careful what odin you use
You wavy to follow this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10056254&postcount=36
Clockwork does not restore kernel and modem. You are stuck at at&t screen because your system is ext 4 used on roms, and your nandroid is rfs. Long and short it won't work
So.... I am a bit confused now. Is there even a way to get back to stock at this point?
The link I posted
Your stock is jh7, odin One click is jf6. The procedure laid out in the link will get you back to jh7, although it takes a couple steps.
As long as you can get into recovery you can probably reflash any rom you have on your sd
Yikes thats a tall order to get back. Thought it would be more simple. So it is easy getting to a point to flash ROMS... Not so easy going back.
I'm also stuck in the same vicious cycle as we type.
I got 2 different stock rom backups and a cognition backup and can't get nothing to restore factory. I got premium ROM Manager. I can get into 2 different recovery screens. 1 from the Clockwork v2.5.1.3-voodoo lagfix and 1 using the update.zip on my root. Can't restore anything that gets me past the ATT logo.

What is your build number, under battery
Between 1006-1012
I don't see a 1006-1012 anything. Where exactly would it be listed under the battery ??? ON the battery ? my phone is 3 days old.
EDIT: oh I think its a 1010 ...I think I found it
Thanks for the help by the way.
Link listed earlier in thread
Yeah it is the same for me.... Sucks!
And I can not download any of the files in that link because I am at work and those hosting sites are blocked for us. :-(

Have you tried this
Phone off
Hold volume up and down and power
Let go when at&t comes up
Should be green recovery
Select install zip from sd
Choose zip
Select rom file that is saved on your sd, any you may of tried
Confirm
If your lucky maybe you can flash the rom
Uhh ??? Somehow from the recovery mode I just re-installed Cognition 3.04 back on my phone by browsing to the ROM.zip an installing it. I have to charge my phone for a few but I'll definitely come back and tell how I did it after a while. I think it was by browsing to cognitionv3.zip from 1 of the recovery menus insead of going to the update.zip. That beats the hell out of going through all the steps of going back to stock.
Thanks for the help.
EDIT:
Yeah somewhat like above post, only I had the Cognition (red) recovery menu and I went to install .zip and browsed to the cognitionv3.zip on my sd and installed it. *BLAM* back to Cognitionv3.04 I'll work with that till I got more time to mess with the other.

Yep I have tried that. Or at least I guess....
I go into the recovery screen but the problem is the only zip files I have are my custom ROMS. I did a complete backup with ROM Manager of the stock ROM before flashing however it did not create a zip file, it created a folder which contains everything that was backed up. I have tried to restore from that but when I do and the phone restarts it sticks on the AT&T white logo screen.
I am not saying restore stock, I am saying flash a rom. it may get you a working phone
Oh yeah I have done that just fine. I am using Cognition.
I am just trying to find my path back to stock.

Exactly, If you flashed a ROM on the phone the ROM is still there. Just use the recovery mode and choose "install a zip from sd" then go to "choose a zip from sd" then it will let you browse the sd for the .zip(rom) you just had. (not stock). It should be successful. Worked for me.
At least you will have a working phone and you can then look into going stock once you've read up a little more on it.
Just trying to help.
EDIT: oh, OK, I myself was in a panic and had just found that possible.
No problem. Thank you for the help!
I was thinking that when I did the backup with ROM Manager that it was creating a ROM version of the stock so I could flash back. Guess not though.
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
Srinath
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?
Hi guys, having some serious issues with my Tab. It's the Telstra GT-P7320T.
So I had it rooted and flashed with the glitkis kernel all working fine still on the standard Telstra version of honeycomb. Then when their update for ICS finally came out (after nearly 6 months of knocking it back) I went to update it in the normal manner, not thinking it would have a hissy fit with the root and the custom kernel.
So after it downloaded it did its pre install bit, it rebooted, but then loaded into CWM recovery, and thats where its stayed. I've tried factory resets, clearing and formatting all the caches (davlik, system etc) i've used adb to push a few different roms and kernels etc to the device but nothing ive tried has worked. I flashed arlics ics rom, but it still just boots into recovery. Ive tried flashing the stock kernel and stock recovery but when i try to install zip from sd them they fail "install aborted (bad)"
Anyone got any ideas on what process and files I should try? Ive searched up and down the forum trying different methods for fixing soft brick and returning to stock but to no avail.
Cheers

hey mate,
i was just caught out by this last night. all you need to do is re-flash on a stock rom with ether oden of heimdall and youre good to go. im sure there is a oden flashable rom on these forums
take it sleazy!
Cheers mate,
Ive been trying to reflash a stock rom by pushing it to the sd card and installing it, but when i go to install it from recovery it tells me the rom file is bad and aborts, like its corrupt or something, so maybe i need to find some different downloads to try. Thanks, there's hope still at least, lol. I'll find the odin file and try doing it that way.

yeah, i think its becaute the cwm recovery doesnt know what to do with the update.
you need to have the stock recovery installed. dont take my word for it though.
just look up a tutorial for flashing a rom via oden. its really easy, just make sure the image you are flashing is of .tar.md5 extension.
You can get the stock rom at sammobile.com. down load the zip file then extract the .tar.md5 file out of it using 7-zip.
God promised men that he'd put beautiful women in all corners of the world. Then he laughed and laughed and made the world round
FIXED!! - Cheers Everyone!
OK, so I downloaded the stock telstra rom off the forum here, its at the top of page 3 at present, flashed that with Oden, which fixed the soft brick and allowed me to boot again. I then flashed the stock recovery, rebooted, got into the system and downloaded the ICS update again. Once it rebooted, with the stock recovery it was able to install and successfully boot into ICS!! I was more stoked than I've ever been before, let me tell you, lol.
how ?

i currently have the same problem as you did, how did you flash with odin if you're stuck in recovery mode ?
please help, I'm racking my brain trying to figure this out.
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.
