I NEED YOUR HELP!!!
I have a Shift that is making me sick
Here is the dilema:
I am able to perm root the phone but I cannot for the life of me get it to take a custom rom. I also cannot get the phone to revert to stock. I have tried RUU, I have tried PG06IMG.ZIP ... I have searched left and right, day and night .. I am ready to chuck this phone at the next person I see walking down the street!!!
I don't know what to do I just want to be able to flash custom roms and if I need to return to stock .. but I can't. All it does is go back to stock rom but it does not wipe any of my data, it stays unlocked and my banner stays the same. I have noticed my PRL keeps changing from what I have flashed, which is fine this one seems to be better.
Also it seems as if my recovery is not wiping dalvic and there is no stock recovery .. which maybe normal. I have tried everything I can think of .. any suggestions besides blind siding an innocent bystander with this hunk of junk!!??
Running 2.2 on 1.17.651.1
I just want to return to stock so I can start all over and try to get this to run customs.. at least. But before you say flash this PG06IMG.ZIP (234mbs) or RUU .. please note that I have tried. Unless yours has magical powers I have flashed it. It won't work.. I have tried factory reset, format all except sd card... I might just try that for the hell of it. Please help
***UPDATE****
I WAS ABLE TO FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS WRONG WITH MY SETUP ... IF YOU ARE HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM AND ARE HAVING TROUBLE LIKE I WAS.
HERE IS THE SOLUTION:
Make sure you have the latest recovery. I had clockwork 2.0.5 I think was the version, it was not wiping dalvic or something this is what was causing all my hair to fall out.
I downloaded Rom manager and flashed clockwork recovery, the recovery now is updated to version 5.0 or something like that. I can now say it works and saved some poor innocent person from being pegged in the back of the head from a flying shift .. XD

The problem is all newer ROMs use Amend scripting which CWM prior to 3.0 doesn't support.
So I brain farted. I deleted the stock launcher and put zeam on. When my phone got buggy I decided to factory wipe. Ooops. Now I need to figure out how to sideload a launcher onto it, or flash it back to stock. Problem is, I cant find the factory *.tar file anywhere. I think I can sideload any launcher from odin, but Im not real familiar with that either. HELP!

If you've already fixed it or found another way, then good job. If not, try searching for LGNPST. It'll reflash your phone.
It's worked for me several times

i have a rom working on the phone (cm10.0.0) have no clue whats going on with phone.
basicly the issue is when i start the phone it says sdcard safe to remove if i try to mount the media storage it quickly jumps and then says the same thing i need any help possible at this point willing to try anything. does anyone know of a solution
(phone is htc one s (s4)
Backup everything and do a factory reset. Also wipe all caches. Then reflash the ROM and GAPPS. If the problem still exists you could try another ROM. CM10.2 is very stable so I would upgrade to it.

thanks but...
im kind of new to the htc scene and have no clue how to get back to stock
found a fix in another thread dont know how i missed it haha
So I had cm12 installed and something happened to where my.phone was lagging so I said screw it and reflashed, while something happened and now I tried to while everything. Well I think I did something wrong because I lost all my apps in the app drawer,but when I go into file manager all my stuff is still there,but now the last couple times I tried to reboot the charging light was flashing red to yellow, but when I take the battery out and put it back in it reboots fine back to the screwed up home screen. Still with all my apps and pictures. Viewable in file manager.someone please help I'm freaking out thinking my phone is screwed up for good ....
Very hard to understand you. What ROM did you flash to now? Does TWRP work, can you get into TWRP?
Yes I can get into twrp,basically it threw me back into my cm12 ROM with none of my apps,and I tried to reflash Google apps and it didn't work,so if I can get into twrp is there a way to fix this by doing like a general full factory reset? And if so exactly how do I do that? I dunno this sucks....I dont wanna try anything else until I kinda have an idea what to do, don't wanna screw it up anymore

If you don't know how to factory reset you probably shouldn't be flashing in the first place. I highly suggest just doing a clean flash and flash Gapps right after you flash CM 12. In order to wipe data, you just click wipe in TWRP.
No I know how to factory reset lol.it's just I did that and when it would go to restart I got little error code up in left hand side of screen. But it doesn't matter because thanks to androidrootz I downloaded New firmware connected it to pc and completely reinstalled operating system. So I'm not rooted or anything and I'm back to square one, .but much better than where I was at.
If your custom Rom was bugging out it could have been a corrupted download. Sometimes all you can do is start from scratch. If you want to flash custom, you need to expect these things. Remember that this is a development site. I have seen where the same Rom acts differently on the exact same phone model. This could be due to a variety of things such as microscopic differences in hardware (this is one of the reasons phones of the same model handles being overclocked more our less than others), settings, tweaks, or apps installed.
Hey guys, I was gifted a transformer tf700t, well I tried doing custom ROM's or some **** or tried putting a new OS on it, and now it's all ****ed up. It tries to boot into "Cromi-K" or some ****, but I can go into recovery I think it's called and use TWRP or the other popular one and flash images, only I don't know what images to flash to just get it back to stock, and every image I try it fails to flash it.. even after I clear cache and clear everything else. All I want is it back to stock and running again. I'll pay like $10 BTC if that's allowed if someone can help me. I also dont know anything about using commands from the PC and pushing it to the tablet.. so..

Thanks
