Hey everyone im new to xda!
ive had a few problems with trying to work out how to get a rom working on my phone i finally did it lol! my first time too!
now what i was using was the standard kit apart from using x recovery as the clockwork one dont work with my phone
i managed to get a rom on my phone working and i did back up before hand and it was successful
problem being now is i wanted to revert back to stock phone and just as i had it before but i run into a few problems ive lost my photos and videos and so on, i used the back up and there wasnt any problems with that? im not sure why iv lost the photos as i thought the backup would have stored everything, its strange as 2 of the images like my bk grounds have stayed but the actual files not in the image folder? any ideas ? appreciated!
thanks for your time!

Hello xda Community, My Girlfreind has the Samsung Wave and a while back a file got deleted which should'nt have, after that it would boot up to a blue screen stating there was an error with a missing file and would not go any further, she then got one of her freinds to flash the phone to a new rom "BADA" think its the 1st version, but ever since shes had this rom she gets really bad signal, No internet, no Camera, no alarm clock e.t.c. Im just woundering is there anyway to get the phone back to the "Original" rom that it would have come out of the Factory on, ive tried doing a hard reset but does not get rid of the new rom. Or is there another ROM that you lot could suggest i flash it to? Go easy with the answers as im not clued up about Flashing mobiles or ROM's.
Cheers!
Hey guys,
I recently rooted and installed CM7 on my HTC Incredible S. After the mod worked fine, I did not have any phone service. I attempted to flash a new radio, but couldn't figure out how to do it (I think it wouldn't work because my phone is S-ON). Now when I tried to restore my phone from the nandroid back up in Clockworkmod, when the phone restarts, it gets stuck at the splash screen.
On my memory card, the only extra additions are the CM7 mod, the google apps update and a file called PG32IMG.zip. I am able to access the bootloader screen fine.
If anyone could provide any assistance, that would be awesome. I really need to use my phone! Thanks guys. I searched to find any fixes, but couldn't find any.
EDIT: Okay, I solved this problem by manually flashing the recovery image using fastboot. However, I still have no service. Has anyone had this problem before?
I'm nre to all thiis
I got an HTC Inspire 4 G that i bought on eBay.
I got it unlocked
I'm not living in the US
I rooted it a day ago
Now I'm trying to put on a rom it has been unsuccessful
I've downloaded about three diff ones, none work. One actually booted up, when i went in about phone showed be 4.1 but the look of the phone looked nothing like what was in the ROM description.
I tried even getting an update from ATT which it actually now saying (after I rooted it that I do have an update), but the download stopped so it's corrupted.
So I am stuck. I just need a simple brief instruction on how I get a rom loaded oh I'm using clockworld rom.
Also when I got the other Rom loaded it didn't give me any wifi or data access.
And one the phone didn't even boot up fully it kept rebooting till putting me back to clockworld boot which (good thing I did) was able to recover from a backup I have on the SD.
thanks in advance guys

Hey guys,
So I got a quite annoying problem and I already spent quite some time searching the forums and google without results. Either the solutioins didn't work or the cases I found were unsolved.
Anyway, here is the story.
I have a xperia tipo (st21i) and I rooted it and unlocked the bootloader and flashed several kernels and roms to find the one I'm most comfortable with.
I used: CM 10.0, paranoid android, super jelly bean and performa v4 in case this is of any interest.
I decided to go with cm 10.0 and it worked fine until after one reboot suddenly my SIM card was unrecognized and it said I should restart the phone with a valid SIM card. I flashed different ROM's and went back to stock now but the problem persists. I really ran out of ideas and since I'm not really skilled and rich of knowledge beyond the point of flashing and the rough structure of android I'm a bit helpless here.
Any help is really appreciated and thanks in advance
P.S.: first post
I don't know if it would work but you can try it
Try flashing ics ftf it should work fine..
follow this may work
first flash the original .ftf file then flash cm10 :fingers-crossed:
This happened to me aswell, but it was a while ago, when I wasn't even rooted yet. Went to the shop to ask about it from them and they said SIMs can go outdated or something.. They gave me a new one and it was fixed. But if you decide to ask them about this, make sure you are on stock ROM and locked bootloader, also unrooted. Because if not, your device isn't under warranty, and they can blame it on that

So you are saying it's due to my SIM? It still works perfectly fine in my other phone (a samsung galaxy xcover s5690). The phone was used when I got it and I don't have any receipt or anything so I don't have warranty on my phone anyway right? Should I still visit a shop?
I also tried ICS and it didn't work either. I got the ftf file from that link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-j-e/development/rom-official-st21a-america-firmwares-t2302630
I tried flashing different kernels and roms already even after it refused to take my SIM but nothing helped. It didn't fell down or anything so I don't think anything went loose inside. Could it still be due to hardware failure?
heeey
I got almost the same problem
few weeks ago i found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-j-e/development/sony-xperia-tipo-dual-t2594389
about making custom roms works tipo dual by making it 1 sim not 2 well its ok with me so i used it and all was perfect
custom rom - working gsm - fast - smooth like i dont need anything else
but yesterday well my annoying gf was spamming calls while i was sleeping so i turned airplane mode On
then after i wake up i turned it off and suddenly the device can't recognize the sim any more the same problem this dude got
so i tried everything like tryin to swap the sim place - installing new rom - restore my old stock rom - hard reset - testing the sim - so i tried installing the last update stock ftf which is 11.0.A.6.5 i think it's like this using flash tools anyway it worked and the problem is solved now the phone is workin with no problems u should try it

I tried other phones aswell, it was working on them, but not on my phone. Weird, but yeah, I suggest you go visit them at the shop, they can probably help you out.
I got my one SV k2_cl from boost a little over a month ago and got the bootloader unlocked and rooted, working fine until one morning it wouldn'tmake calls or texts. I tried to factory reset and when I tried to boot got stuck at the HTC logo. Took me 2 weeks to get it to even flash a Rom on here that will somewhat work. I've got WiFi and partial 3g 4g connectivity but no voice at all. When I try to use the phones its activation tool-error, tried manually programming phone- nothing. I'm stumped. Can someone please help me out here. Don't want to have to buy another phone if I can help it. The only guess I've got at the moment is that if I could get a stock original rom to flash I'd be good to go probably and just hold out on doing anything else to it until after the kitkat ota is launched. The few stock roms I've tried either wouldn't download for some reason or just won't flash right. Thanks in advance for any help guys. I've always been more of a hardware geek more so than software but I can usually muddle through following guides of course.
I'm not much into boost, but did you try to flash the available RUU?

As a matter of fact I have tried that and unfortunetly the installer locked up on a reboot of the phone because the phone wants to do the "Android is upgrading # of #" on every boot. That was why I was thinking since adb/fastboot and the HTC One Toolkit all sorta work that if I could get ahold of a working stock rom to flash on there and I have a stock CWM backup still on my laptop from when I first got the phone rooted and everything working. But of course thanks for the tip anyway. I wish that would work. It seems to be the easiest way to install back to stock.
