Can someone help me COMPLTELY factory reset my phone. I rooted using the vroot tool. Then I installed the dual recovery (CWM and TWRP). Then I used the sony factory reset from phone's settings. I didn't unlock the bootloader. The reason I need to completely factory reset is because after the sony factory reset my wifi is broken. Like phone doesn't turn on the wifi and crashes if i try.
I am going to try the new firmware update and see if that helps
Also it seems I can't access the recoveries I installed.

after a reset you lose them. Just flash a stock ftf using flashtool
Flash
Just flash the FTF Firmware "Stock 14.1.G.1.534" via Flashtool.
This should help you out. :fingers-crossed:

I use JB
when i flashing with odin evertyhing fine, but.. when it says "RESET" my phone is reboot, but then it still stuck
Odin still says "RESET" then about 5-10 minutes it become "PASS"
but still my phone is stuck
am i need flash it with other rom?
anyway i get some problem, i can open my recovery but when i press my power button it cannot select any of recovery menu. But i still can navigate wiht Volume button
u can open the recovey so u dont need to worry
firstly do a complete wipe of all user and system data
if u are on plilz recovery there is a option to do so in the wipe data factory reset option called "clean to install a new rom" do it
thenif u have a official jb 4.1.2 firmware flash it via odin if u want to go back to stock or there are many kk roms and customized 4.1.2 roms available here do a research and flash whatever u like

You currently have the stock recovery, not Philz.
Go into your current recovery and go to factory reset/data wipe (use the volume up and down keys), to select it use the power button. Once you have factory reseted your device, reboot.
If that doesn't fix it then do the following:
Download any recent Philz Kernel for JB from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901191
Copy that to your external sd card (go into recovery and connect your Note to your PC or if that doesn't work, do it through a different phone or an microsd card reader). Flash that file in the stock recovery, reboot to recovery again. Once you have philz, perform a full wipe (you should have that option in factory reset/data wipe otherwise wipe /system /preload /data). Once that is done, reflash with Odin and then again: go to the stock recovery and perform a factory reset and reboot, now it should be working.
So I booted to recovery, did a clean wipe of everything, installed this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-...0-1-5-77-debloated-deodexed-zipalign-t3015281
Then I guess I realize that it isn't a full rom, it is meant to be flashed over another one.
So now phone does not boot and I can't even get to recovery.
Any hope or tricks?
Reflash stock tft via flashtool without wiping userdata to safe internal sd. Then root and install dualrecovery. Since u have no recovery u have no other choice

awesome dude thanks so much! found what I need
Hello, I have an s3 mini I8190N model, with CM 11.0 kitkat 4.4.4(cm11.0_golden.nova.20150108) installed on it since nearly its release, the phone worked very fine, till today I entered the ROM manager app and pushed the "Boot to Recovery" button, so now it doesn't boot neither to the system nor to the recovery. I remember having CWM on it.
What I get now is only the "Samsung S3 mini..." splash screen, nothing else.
I have these files ready on my computer:
Recovery-CWM-I8190-Official-TOUCH-6.0.2.7.ODIN.zip
cm11.0_golden.nova.20150108.zip
What should I do now ??
You probably soft bricked your phone, I suggest you to check if you still can go into download mode and flash with Odin a wipe file and then a stock rom, once it is working again flash twrp recovery instead of cwm with Odin and try not to use rom manager, I've heard it causes the brick you have.

Not if you flash the wipe file, you can try flashing the stock rom without the wipe but It's recommended to do a clean install. Another option is to flash a file called PARAM to see if it solves the bootloop. But the way I fixed a softbrick in my phone was flashing param, wipe and stock rom in that order with Odin.
Are you able to go into recovery?

I will install TWRP through Odin v3 on the phone, then I'll flash without wiping data, then I'll recover necessary data(especially contacts) and then redo a clean install with wiping all the rubbish files.
I will tell you after I follow these steps on whether it was successful or not.
Thank you very much!

No problem, flash the custom recovery after the stock rom though.

Effectively, I installed the missing recovery software (TWRP), and after that I selected from the boot menu in TWRP the "System" entry, then it booted fine and I didn't lose any of my data. Though I have to make a clean flash next time, by cleaning the dalvik cache... etc.
Thank you for your support!
Hello,
So my Galaxy S6 is stuck in a boot loop and i've literally tried EVERYTHING already and nothing will solve the problem. Safe mode won't work, clearing the cache partition won't work and USB Debugging was turned off so adb wasn't seeing my device either. I also tried Kies and Smart Switch. I am convinced my phone is soft bricked and I need to recover some very important pictures and files from it. At this point my last hope is to flash the stock ROM via Odin and I saw that some people said that they have successfully done this without losing any of their data. Is this possible? If so how do I go about doing it properly?
Thanks for any help!
Phone is not rooted and 100% stock.
Recovery and Download screens are working.
How did Kies not work for you? I used it about 4 times to restore to like new.

Because the phone is stuck in a boot loop. Kies won't detect my phone because it never fully boots.
Weird. I completely removed the system on one before reinstalling the system via Kies before sending it back via warranty exchange. I'd suggest trying again. Obviously you will need model and serial #.

Tried Kies multiple times but it just won't work. Uninstalled and reinstalled drivers, disconnected and reconnected the phone, nothing works. That's why I turned to Odin.

Since you can get into recovery, if I were you I'd flash Unikernel (latest version is 9.1 I believe) and then flash a custom rom. If you can get it to boot you shouldn't lose data in the sdcard/download.

Forgot to mention but I am going to have to return this phone to T-mobile for a warranty exchange, that's why I was trying to avoid custom rom's thinking it might become ineligible. Want to be able to recover data and then reset the phone for return
The phone i wiped the system on was returned via warranty with Tmobile (of course I later reinstalled it via Kies). I would install a custom rom to attempt to get the thing up and running. Once you do that then go from there (back to Kies or factory reset...)

Ok, Thank you! I was worried about the warranty exchange. I will attempt to install a custom rom let's see how it goes.
The purpose of installing the custom rom is to attempt to retrieve your data. If you can boot and then successfully get your data, it would be advisable to remove the custom rom and restore it to factory. Let me know how it goes...

If you've got recovery installed it would be just for that purpose. Restoring your backup (i.e., recovery). I gather you don't have a backup?
What device do you have?
G920F International. The Recovery is not a custom one . It is the default recovery that doesn't have backup mode.

Ahh gotcha. Well...if it were me what I'd do is to boot to download mode and flash TWRP custom recovery file using Odin. Once that passes I'd boot into TWRP and do a backup.
You can then reboot into TWRP and try to restore your backup but you'll likely end up in a bootloop again. If that happens...
Then, I'd download a stock recovery (looks like they have your variant here.
I'd then flash the stock recovery using TWRP and then reboot.
If you get stuck in a bootloop again then I would do a factory reset (which doesn't wipe storage which is where your photos etc. are) and then reflash the stock recovery zip file.
I can't say for certain if that'll wipe your photos, etc. or not but I'm not inclined to think it would.

Thanks. It will help in the backup.
Will factory reset/wipedata from stock recovery remove the pictures ?
Can you backup data using OTG/pendrive from TWRP recovery?

factory reset doesn't erase storage data.
Not sure about otg/pendrive
Sent from my SM-G920T using XDA-Developers mobile app
I didn't flash TWRP as I learned that Samsung Pay will never work not even Stock ROM flash. I instead pulled some vital data files from adb pull on 'the window of around 1 minute' each time it was active during safe mode rebooting and thankfully Google Photos had a backup of my Photos and videos.
I used the wipe data option on stock recovery that wiped everything. The device is like new.
