Hello - I followed the instructions in this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=935312 thread and successfully rooted my Optimus V.
After a couple days I stopped receiving texts. I called Virgin Mobil and they suggested that I do a factory reset. I did, now my phone just boots to the Adroid System Recovery screen. I have tried retracing my steps and starting from scratch but I can't get Super1click to recognize my phone even if I turn on the USB-MS toggle on the system recovery screen. Is there anything I can do to rectify the problem? Thanks for your time!
Hello,
I was looking at the steps on the link you posted and just curious... did you do step 6
" Go to "Backup" (navigate with volume rocker and click with Home) , and click "backup nand" "
If you did this step you should have a back up that you can recover too in the recovery mode.
Yes - I have tried that with no luck. The backup is there but it returns an error that states the "signature cannot be verified"
I have found I can turn off signature verification. When I do, it tells me it can not find the update script. Any ideas?

As long as you can get to the recovery mode you arent bricked.
Do you know if you are in the stock or the custom recovery mode?
Also what step are you on when you get this msg?
I am in the custom recovery mode. One thing I forgot to mention is the factory reset wiped the SD card and I moved the files back on to the SD card via the USB-MS mode although I am not sure I moved the correct files.
The step this is happening on is when I go to "Flash zip from sdcard" option.
Thanks SO much for your help!

Ok if your not sure you moved the correct file on there just use the "Stock Rom Rooted and De Odexed minus Bloat" download from that page, keep it as a zip file and load it on your sd card via USB Mass Storage and flash from that...keep in mind that will lose all of your previous backup data and start you over fresh.
Thanks again! I will try this tonight. Should I flash the SD card first just to make sure it's a clean install?

I would do a data wipe/clear cache then put the "Stock Rom Rooted and De Odexed minus Bloat" zip file on the sd card and then perform the flash a zip from sd card option.
That got me further than I have gotten. It appears that it installed ok. So I rebooted and went right back into system recovery. What can I try from here?
Im not sure which custom recovery you guys are using but look for an option that says clear dalvik cache and then repeat the same flash from stock rom rooted .zip file

Try reflashing Clockwork Mod Recovery.

Do that, and if you have the means, try to check out the external sd on some other device to see what's going on. I'd start with pulling the battery for a bit and try flashing the backup again.
Also, correct me if I'm wrong but if you didn't flash anything because of misfiling xboarder's rom, there was no reason to use the backup in the first place.

Where did you put your nandroid - internal or external SD? They would have been determined by the recovery option you chose - Internal or External SD. Your stock ROM would download the Xboarder ROM to internal in any case, but your nandroid location depends on the choice above.
Since you did a total wipe, you do not have a ROM installed, so you will not be able to boot up, but you DO NOT have a brick.
You could flash the Recovery again with the Oneclick Recovery tool and choose internal, and then you could flash the Xboarder ROM. After that, see if you can find your backup (in the clockworkmod folder).

I didn't know that a wipe from cwm clears out the rom. I only ever wiped before flashing something else so I assumed it was more like a factory reset.

As far as I know, the wipe data/factory reset is exactly that.
There's also a wipe system function, which wipes the entire ROM also. It seems he did that also.
As for fixing the phone, what gaww said haha. If xboarder's mod isn't there, then in recovery while the phone is plugged in, mount the sd card, and put a rom on there using windows explorer or whatever, then disconnect and you should be able to flash it.

Boot into recovery, go down to mount, and mount usb. Then find the file on your internal sd and move it over to the external sdcard. I have had to do that a few times when I forgot to move the file.
WTF is going on, why has this (in the history of this phone) apparently never been asked? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills over here, just trying to flash a simple rom.
i can access mine through CWM.
yes yes, the only thing i noticed that is different on this phone is that when i make a nandroid it puts it on my external sd instead of my internal but it still sees my internal.
If cwm is not recognising the internal sd card....you have a corrupt partition. You need to odin
Stock. Tar boot into stock recovery wipe data/cache 3 times each reboot. Then root/ flash cwm recovery back onto the phone and then wipe and flash your rom

Are you getting this message after you root the device? I had this same issue and realize I needed to first root the device, open ROM manager to give it root access then reboot. After that it was OK.

I really don't understand why people think when they reset their phone/wipe data and then try to reboot their phone everything will be okay. You have some options. First, since I'm assuming you deleted everything off your SD card, you don't have a back-up available so you will need a computer or some other way to get a ROM zip onto your SD card. First thing, hold the vol. up and power button to boot into HBOOT. From here you will able to get into recovery. From recovery you can either mount your SD card and place another ROM onto your sd card and flash as normal or you can restore your back-up provided you didn't delete it. Another way, which I have no experience in, is you can boot into HBOOT via abd. No idea how to do it but that will also require a computer. If you can't get into Recovery but you can get into HBOOT, I know there is PD98IMG that you can flash via HBOOT that will give you a working ROM.

Unless you know of another way to get a zip file onto your sd card without a working ROM already or a computer, please let us all know haha, until then you'll need a computer..sorry bud!
in the future, if you ever reset or data wipe (not cache or dalvik cache wipe) always always always flash a new ROM or restore a back-up, as you can tell nothing awesome happens!
thank you not a noob but don't know everything. Thank you again. But if I had a good rom on there and i did what I said why would it not just delete the data on the sd card and then boot up again? Just wondering why. Thank you.

I'm assuming you did the factory reset and not the wipe data from recovery option, so I'm not sure exactly what happens scientifically with the phone itself but when you did it, the reset function probably reset some system files or something on the phone in addition to wiping your SD card. While wiping your SD card won't cause this to happen (I wipe my card from time to time leaving only the clockwork files for my back-ups and photos), whatever the factory reset does to the phone, it changed something that caused the ROM to become unstable and consequently not boot.
Ok thank you. I learn from my mistakes lol thank you again.

To answer your question, sure you can do it without a PC, use a MAC
Bustin' your chops. But in reality, if your SD card is empty you'll need to get a ROM downloaded to the SD, and if your phone won't boot then you won't be able to do it from your phone, so you'll need a computer. Once you have a ROM downloaded to the SD, boot to recovery and flash. This is most easily accomplished by booting to recovery, going to mounts and storage, Mount USB Storage. Now your computer will recognize the SD as a mass storage device. Copy the ROM to the SD, unmount mass storage, flash .zip from SD, choose .zip, flash away
So I believe I've bricked my SGH-T769, at least, whenever I attempt to turn it on, I am greeted with the standard Samsung splash-screen and can never proceed past it. I can still boot into recovery mode and i wanted to know if I could use the "restore from sdcard01" option to fix this. I have a removable SDCard and the ability to add files to it via- cardreader. Can I even get system restore files?
P.S. I cleared EVERYTHING... not JUST the harddrive, dalvik, and caches, i mean... i cleared EVERYTHING which was obviously a mistake because that's when the problems came. I believe I may have actually cleared the system files themselves...
:silly:
Oddly enough, CWM Recovery is still alive and well, but I cannot access DOWNLOAD MODE
(I KNOW HOW TO ACCESS DOWNLOAD MODE BUT IT IS JUST BROKEN WITH THIS PHONE)
Hello,
Yes, if you made a nandroid backup in recovery then restoring that nandroid should fix you.
To better assist you, your thread will be moved to your device forum linked below.

No, you are not bricked. If you are able to access recovery, think of it as a second chance . Since you have recovery available, have you tried transferring a ROM to it? If that is what you were aiming for, I recommend transferring TWRP onto it, flashing it, reboot to recovery, and proceed to flashing a ROM.

Yes, download your ROM and Gapps package, place the zips on your external sdcard, boot to recovery, flash the ROM zip then flash the Gapps zip, do the wipes(factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache), reboot.

Do a Google search for "custom ROMs for SGH-T769" that should give some results if anything exists.

By the way, there is a device called a USB jig that is used to force a device into download mode, you can get one for $4-5 on eBay or you can make your own by cutting the end off of an old micro USB cord and using a 300k resistor(or any combination of resistors that equal but do not exceed 300k), there are videos on YouTube that show how to do that. That should boot you to download mode so you can restore the device to stock.

SuperMan-Rom V1.8.1 Aroma - AP will not boot (integrity verification failed)
On My S7 edge, thought I'd give it another go at trying to root since this rom claims to be almost stock with an option to get rid of all the samsung rubbish (like s-voice) that you don't use ever.
Followed all the steps to root, ON STOCK OS, entered developer mode, allowed OEM, allowed USB debugging, turn off verify installs by USB abd. Now It seems the phone is prepped and ready to go.
Flashed TWRP with latest ODIN 3.11, made a backup of stock OS, back in download mode and flashed required bootloader and modem (BL and CP), boot again into recovery to flash AP (SuperMan-Rom_SM-G93XF_V1.8.1.zip). Went through all the process and it seems fine until 1st boot.
***Every try is showing "Verification Failed, Unable to restart your device. The Integrity verification has failed. You need to reset your device to factory default settings. This will erase all your data."***
Have I Done something wrong to be showing this error every time????
I had the same error message. The cause was that my device was encrypted. TWRP can't handle encryption on the S7 yet. Reboot into TWRP and look at the logs. If it says it couldn't mount /data, then this is probably the same issue I had.
To fix it, I restored the backup OS from TWRP, made a backup of all apps and data to external SD using Titanium Backup and wiped the encrypted partition in TWRP (which removes the encryption and all data). There may be better ways, but this one worked for me.
@Davebnly You need to take backup of the Internal Storage data and then do a wipe using TWRP, Since TWRP cannot handle the Samsung's Encryption the only way to bypass this is by formatting again. This is already mentioned in the Official TWRP Installation post here.
I have this same error after flashing a custom ROM. I did not take a backup of the old stock ROM as it's a new phone and I didn't think I needed to!
Can anyone tell me, if I flash the stock ROM will it let me into the device again?
Is there anyway to wipe the encrypted drive without installing stock ROM?
*UPDATE: I just logged into recovery and did a factory reset and it loaded the custom ROM. Not as lengthy a solution as I expected!

Hi, I'm sorry but what does all that mean? Reboot to recovery??? The only option on my phone is the button to RESET DEVICE and I have two weeks worth of photos and videos that I have not backed up yet! Please help!!! FYI, I have the same exact message telling me to erase all my data because I need to reset my device. Nooo, I am so scared right now.
