Hi, first of all thanks in advance to anyone who will try and solve my problem.
I unlocked my xoom using thi tread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=967065
and rooted it using this tread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1078019
after that I successfully opened and checked my phone. It was rooted with super user and everything.
I tried to enable the market for everthing so I used this tread for enabling market with replacing build.prop method.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1065698
As soon as I restarted the xoom couldnt get past the video introduction.
Now, I have tried getting into recovery and doing factory reset and everything but I cannot seem to get past the video..
I am genuinely scared if I bricked the tablet...
Any help will be very much appreciated.
Thank You in advance...

Hi Cozzeck,Can you possibly post a link for a guide to flashing back to stock? I don't want to mess it up further by doing something wrong.
And also, do you advice to try and root it again after fixing it?
Thank you, in advance...
I sent you a pm

Like you read up, you need to back to stock and do the procedure to root again.
Look for the stock image on the android development section, install it by clockwork recovery, and after get on stock do the procedure for root again.
If you have question u can PM me.
See ya!

Hey guys, i have a motorolla droid 3. xt862. I am running cyanogen mod 7 and it is rooted. i flashed the Blur_Version.5.6.890.XT862.Verizon.en.US file using stock recovery and now the droid 3 bootstrap is gone and wifi wont work. im stuck with cm7 which doesnt work. I would just like to go back to the way it was when i got it stock rom and everything. I have no interest in custom roms because absolutely nothing works and it is all very buggy. Please i need help urgently! i hope im not stuck
is there anyway to go back to gingerbread 2.3.4? i can't seem to get rid of cyanogen mod 7 because i have no bootstrap and i can't install it again.
It sounds like you did an RUU? ? ?
That should have gotten you back to stock. Basically you need to get a working RUU version, of the latest OTA and run that. Or get a rooted stock rom.

I'm not sure if there is another way to root, but I believe you have to flash clockworkmod recovery and then flash an already rooted ROM to obtain root.
Hope this helped!

How to unroot nabi 2.
Hello! I rooted my son's tablet following a very specific video on youtube. Now I am having some issues and need to send the device back for repairs and need to unroot it. I see you posted a link here to download a file necesary for this purpose, but could you be a little more specific as to how the whole process is done? I would greatly appreciate it.
Hi guys,
my rooted 4.2.2 rom'd gs3 has a finicky usb port and will not charge. I need to return the phone for a warranty exchange, but is there a way I can do that when the usb port is damaged and is not recognized by the pc? thanks for the help, it is greatly appreciated!
Have you tried mobile odin app.

1. Mobile odin, however I've personally never used it. There are probably guides out there somewhere how to return the phone to stock.
2. You may still be under samsung's warranty period, they don't care if your phone is rooted and will fix hardware problems. They will flash the most recent stock rom and firmware they have to your phone so you'd have to re root it.

I have not tried the mobile odin app (did not know it existed). I will try that and post back results in a little while. Thanks everyone
Its pretty straight forward. It does cost you a few bucks but its always nice to have and support a great developer.

I downloaded the 1.2gb file which was supposed to flash the stock ROM and lock the boot loader, but all it did was wipe my current ROM? Can anyone help me understand what I did wrong? Thanks again! I used the mobile Odin app and it all seemed OK ...md5 sum was good too

What guide did you follow? You could've done a number of things wrong, try to boot into recovery or download mode to see if you're hardbricked.

Correct it is the 4.1.1 img. I am away from my home computer but I think that might have been the wrong file since you want to go back to stock. I will try to search the thread for the file I used during my training

The link below should take you to the mb1 file. This will wipe everything and should take you back to stock 4.1.2. I have not done this method in a while so if something borks im sorry for mentioning it.

Thanks for your help I was able to get a usb connection enough and I used Odin on my laptop. The only problem I have now is that the custom unblock symbol appears when I boot up the phone. Any idea how to remove that now that root is gone? Ignore the following words...my phone won't let me edit them out. Thanks again.
Edit: it looks like the file I used was a 4.0.4 image. For return purposes is it fine if it's the older version? There should be no signs of root now. I'll keep checking for updates though

I would, if you have an ics rom they will be able to tell something is off. It should accept an OTA update. If you can odin again, use the vrblk3 image and accept the ota to vrbmb1. It may not be updating due to to the jump from ics to the most recent base. That will make sure you're completely back to stock, with a locked bootloader, and a stock recovery.
