First factory reset.

Then directly install cm12 over it.

Am I right in assuming that your bootloader is still unlocked?

Okay good. What version Moto X do you have? And if you haven't already install the Motorola drivers while I prepare a script for an auto install.

Why would you modify your phone when you clearly have no idea of what your doing or how to return to stock? Mind boggling to me how many people take these silly risk.

Seriously man. I thoroughly read all guides before going about the rooting.
But this guy just doesn't know even basic stuff mentioned in the first post.
I tried helping him but he is just too ignorant for me to handle.
Don't even get me started on the 'will pay' thing.
I didn't notice it before but man what does this guy think

Before I ever rooted my phone I read all kind of tutorials and even watched all kinds of video's on youtube. +1 to rootjunky.com Then before I would modify anything I would make sure to have all the stock images and my sdk set up if needed to return to stock before changing anything.

I sure as hell didn't tell people that I'll pay them for helping me

So I worked with him and got his phone running stock again. And told him to not even think of paying, instead just that he would promise to not flash anything in the future until he researches how to do it properly

HELP! I can't boot my tab and I can't get into recovery!

Step by step what I did:
I rooted my tab via this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=812367
I then installed bootstrap (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=981307), and after going through the steps and restarting I can't get into recovery or anything. It just sits at the logo.
How do I just reset it to factory?
If I completly broke this I think I'm going to puke... Can somebody give me a little bit of hope or help?

1st question .. is your tab unlock ?
2nd if not , means you gonna reflash your stock rom again via odin
3th . maybe you can use P1_add_hidden.pit via odin and press start and maybe its work , but 80% its work if didn't work u have to go for step 2

Obihannm, I did the same yesterday.
You need the original stock firmware for your galaxy and Odin for flash it again.
Look for sam firmware in the google to grab your stock kernel, tools and guides for recovery.
With luck and patience, it is possible ressurrect your tab, but It will back unrooted and maybe you get a locked bootloader.
Just go here and follow attached guide guide.
Thanks guys, I will be up late trying this for sure. I noticed that this probably should live within the QA area not Genreal, so if a Mod or Admin wants to move it, please do.

That would end up with me having gingerbread correct? Should I try to first restore it to factory since right now I can't even enter recovery? Or is it a moot point and I may as well go forward get gingerbread on it?

You dont need to enter any recovery at all. Just "download" mode.
Go and read the guide.

OK, a few deep breaths and some "reading" (a new concept for me it seems) later I think I have a bit of a better understanding.
So reading through the overcome guide and a few other threads I think my issue is I must have had a protected bootloader, and that bootstrap program would have frigid that up (there probably was a warning if I slowed down). So that means my issue is my bootloader... Am I correct thus far?
If this is true, does this mean my current rom is actually fine, and fixing my bootloader is my #1 goal?
From there I can insteall the overcome rom, the normal gingerbread rom, or go back to stock? As I see it overcome/gingerbread is the best option.
Just install the stock rom, once back to normal if you have a locked bootloader patch it
All that you need in one handy page

I read through the guide you linked to as well as this one (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1078622). You suggest I only need to access "download" mode, which I discovered how to do last night. Should Heimdall or other applications be able to see my device via download mode? Or is there a step I am missing.
As well I noticed in the guide you linked me it references patching the bootloader if it is locked, do I need to patch my bootloader or replace it completely as it seems to be broken?
I want to learn this stuff, this I read, and now I am asking. Again all help is appreciated.
Heimdall doesn't seem to do anything at all. I followed the guides as I best understood, and when it came time to hit the start button it instantly said completed with no actual results...
Any ideas?
a coworker was nice enough to help me out, using the stock rom with an unlocked bootloader he was able to bring it back for me. I'm now running froyo, rooted, and a unlocked boot loader so I should have no issues putting overcome on it.

[Q] Help me out. Close to hard-brick

Well... I was using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1818502 and it works.
Then used http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1826378
to install the latest CM10.1 nightly file, then failed(some problem with the zip file?), the usb mounting wont work. Then when I reboot recovery I gone back into normal recovery. And I cant install anything nor mount my USB to the default recovery.
Now I'm stuck. Some help please?

You really haven't given much informaton to go on. Basics with any help request;-
What are you trying to achieve?
What version are you running?
What ROM were you on before?
Rooted?
Bootloader locked or unlocked?
What recovery have you installed?
EXACT error message - this is the single most important detail!!
There are plenty of guides around if you are trying to get from 'Stock' to CM10.1;-
Upgrade to 'Stock' JB first
Root
Unlock bootloader
Install CWM (v6.0.3.1)
Install CM from zip
Install gApps from zip
.....
Profit

My bad.
I want to install Cm10.1
running on stock rooted v10e
Rooted yes.
My device is SEA, not sure if I unlocked bootloader...(might be the problem)
The recovery i stated on my question.
I now can only hope lg support tool can help me out.
Because I might forgot bootloader and my device is already wiped out clean(so i cant even return to stock because the whole device is empty).
edit:
Figured out how to enter download mode... haha
Will keep Continue my effort!
I've gone through hell Unlocking Sensation XE, 4X wont beat me!

Highlighted in red for a very good reason. You'll need to reflash your stock v10e first, yet again there are guides on how to do this. Once you have the phone back up and running on v10e then read carefully and make sure you understand all the steps before trying again

Help! I think i bricked my Verizon G2

Hello guys!
I wanted to upgrade to Malladus Kitkat 4.4.2. I was on 12b with CWM...So i updated my recovery to TWRP from here ... I followed the steps and still it wouldnt let me install the ROM. Kept saying update failed. So I tried going back to CWM, that update too failed...So I was stuck with TWRP..So i installed 12b and after a while the phone finished everything and rebooted..But it went into a bootloop..I tried going into recovery using power and vol down option...when I got the option to hard reset..i pressed power thrice...usually it would go to the recovery but now the hard reset was done in less than a second and the phone shut down...did this a few times with the same result. My PC (win 8) does not recognize my device since its not yet on..Also it keeps asking me if I want to format my drive. The drivers have been installed etc. I dont know what to do...How do i revive it? Any help will be massively appreciated guys

Of course I tried some of the options mentioned in that forum but my PC simply fails to recognize the phone.. so even in the Download mode, I am unable to do anything. Let me try the method which requires me to use Ubuntu. May be it will work.

its fairly easy, but.. there might be an issue for you. it might not flash rigjt if flashing them together using flash-all. you might have to fastboot flash each part separately.

PLEASE HELP!!!! Nexus 6 with LOCKED boot loader stuck in BOOTLOOP with stock recovery

so here is what happened, i was rooted with an unlocked boot loader running chroma rom. i then tried to unroot my device to return completely back to stock. After the process was done, i formatted and wiped everything then did a reboot. when android started up chroma rom was still on there and i can't access developer settings to unlock my boot loader to flash stock image. so now i am stuck with a locked boot loader and a bootloop device. i have tried adb sideload and got back 2 errors that the footer is wrong and the signature. i don't know what to do now. so Please Help! thank you in advance.
another thing i should add, i only have access to stock recovery

The only option is try and fastboot format userdata and fastboot format cache.
If they don't work, there is no fix. Nothing a toolkit can do.
yup, @danarama has the right explanation. problem is that with stock recovery it most likey will not work. sorry

Here is the option. Direct from Wug's FAQ. "If you device is bootlooping or can’t boot up, use “Flash Stock + Unroot” with the “Soft-Bricked/Bootloop” option and follow the onscreen instructions for manually booting your device into bootloader mode and restoring your device."
Can't use flash stock option without an unlocked bootloader.

Why is this happening so often. Sorry but getting late to the party, I just bought my N6 from Best Buy and have been trying to get caught up on all the reading before it gets here. Is it user error or something else?
BTW, from what I see he can probably break it down and sell the parts on ebay then get close to a new one for $350.

We don't know but this sucker likes to bootloop. Never relock the device till after it boots and running. Concerning relocking non-stock have seen it bork TWRP and kernel.

because many people dont read and educate themselves beforehand.
I don't understand why people are re-locking their boot loader. Unless you are returning the device, what is the purpose of re-locking it? I don't get, in this particular thread, why or how the boot loader got locked?

And that is a key question.
I was trying to get ready to turn in my nexus 6 and so I flashed a stock rom (apparently minus the recovery) and relocked my device. I now have twrp but stock 5.1 installed. twrp boots okay but internal storage is 0mb and it appears unable to format partitions. any ideas on a resolution? very comfortable with fastboot (bootloader loads normally) but can't seem to get anything working otherwise.
