Please Create a Update.zip!!! D720

I recently semi bricked my phone. My baseband version is UKNOWN, so i get no signal for 3G and Voice. But i am able to connect to wifi. I have done all kinds of trouble shooting. Ive been looking for a zip file that i can flash through stock recovery as a update.zip that will put everything back to stock including my radio (Bc i think that is what i have trashed) No computer will show that my phone is connected to it. So Odin and fastboot is not an option. I have been downloading files and placing them in my dropbox account and downloading it to my phone from there. So my question is, Can someone please create a update.zip that will completely wipe my phone out and put everything that was suppose to be on my phone back on there.
I Have a Nexus S through Sprint D720
Android Version 2.3.4
Build Number GRJ22
Model Number Nexus S
Thanks in Advance and i will Donate money to whoever can fix my issue!

Chris, do you have CWM Recovery?
If you can mount your SD card and copy files to /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup on your phone, I created a NANDROID back up of 2.3.4 100% Stock, Deodexed Rooted which might help in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074798.
I've only tested it on my own phone, might want to try it see if works.

My phone is unlocked but my clockworkmod is not there anymore just the stock recovery. Also no computer will recognize my phone so i cant reinstall the clockworkmod. Any ideas? Only way around it is having an update.zip that can be flashed through stock recovery

[Q] Cwm says can't open su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed root zip Bad

Hi All, Yes i am a noob and this is my first post. i have read all previous posts regarding this matter but havn't been able to find anything. I have managed to S-Off my phone (Hboot 1.17.1111) through revolutionary and put Cwm 4.1.0.4 on it but when i try to flasn su-2.3.6.3 Zip it says, finding, opening, then Can't open/sdcard/su-etc.zip (bad) Installation Aborted
I have tried downloading zip from different locations and latest ones but to no avail.
Any ideas Please.
My phone is Taiwan model dose this make any difference?
Cheers.

Try to flash it again.
I've had the same problem but after insisting a 2nd time, the flash was Ok.

Supertool V3 works wonders!
Hi, Thanks for your advice, i tried it 10 times and still nothing! I read lots of posts on other forums etc people having same prob but no one seems to know what the prob is. Anyways i found this Supertool V3 program you run on your computer plug in your phone and prees a enter and it does it all for you the whole kit and kaboodle and it worked first time.
Yay, i am now rooted.
Cheers,

10 times
I didn't know this tool so I couldn't advise you to use it....But if that's good now, excellent for you !!!

Why not use the latest version of Superuser as opposed to that ancient build...
http://goo-inside.me/superuser/Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip

First off, do this.
Second, the problem you're having is likely because the su.zip file you're trying to flash is bad. Just because you downloaded it doesn't mean you got a clean copy. Files get corrupted during the download process or in the transfer to your SD card.
CWM is basically saying "Look dude, this file isn't going to do what you think its' going to do so I'm not going to install it and eff up your phone. You're welcome!"
So again, get the newer version of SU linked above. And if you have this problem again with SU or anything in the future, the first thing to do is get a fresh copy of the file and start over.

I tried both methods above but my GT-P1000 reboots to cwm recovery. Tried wiping data etc.
Can anyone help please?

Rooted phone, hit factory reset on phone and now I'm stuck in loop

Hello I rooted my Inspire last Feb. I have installed several Rom's. Today I picked up a new phone for myself, HTC Vivid and was going to give the Inspire to my wife. Just didn't want her to be able to see all the different stuff I had on the Inspire. To make a long story short, I had a brain fart and without thinking went into factory reset and reset my rooted phone (I know dumb). Now I'm stuck in a loop, how do I correct this problem?
I have pulled the battery to get out of the loop and held down the volume and pushed the power button to get into bootloader from there I went into recovery and checked my sd card and there is no Rom. Help please.

If you can get into recovery, then download a rom to pc, connect phone to pc, mount sd card, transfer, wipe, flash.

Scrappy, now you know it, never do a factory reset on a custom rom...you will get stuck with no rom at all.
Boot in hboot and choose recovery. If you still have CWM recovery you can flash a custom rom from the sdcard (you will need a sdcard reader) but first make a full wipe to have a clean flash.
If you want to rever to stock ruu, then flash the official at&t GB RUU (is an .exe file) from fastboot (boot in hboot, choose fastboot and plug the phone till u see fastboot usb in red), then run the file.
The file u can get it from www.htc.com go to support and find downloads in the Inspire 4G section.

Yes pretty much what the above member said. Just pick a Rom there is a member by the name of gene pool that has a revert back to stock like out of the box kind revert its the dev thread for the inspire

Yep, that is correct..but if he wants to flash a custom rom. If he actually wants to revert to stock and keep S-OFF he has to flash the RUU...:fingers-crossed:

OK, I did a complete wipe, I am going to get the sd card reader. Just for the heck of it I mounted the sd card and looked to see what files (data) is on the card and all that is there is the 4ext recovery. Everything else is gone.
I am running up to walmart to get the sd card reader. If you wouldn't mind, could you please give (I feel stupid asking this) a step by step or provide a link on exactly how to this is done with the card reader.
Right now when attach my Inspire to the PC it won't even recognize it as a disk. So that is kind of throwing me for loop. I already have the ROM on my PC it is a rooted version of the original Gingerbread RUU.
Thank you so much for your help. :good:

All is good, all working, wife is happy , you saved my butt.
Thank you so much.
Now I'm trying to decide if I want to keep the HTC Vivid or go with the Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket (can't afford the Galaxy S III or the HTC One X). Have you checked out either phone and what is your opinion of them, to me the Vivid almost seems to much like the Inspire, except a lot faster. I have read and watched so many reviews of both phones but I am almost tempted to try The Skyrocket just for something different. Either way after rooting my Inspire I'm sure whatever I end up keeping, it will be rooted. Just looking for your thoughts on those two phones.

Hello folks,
Am new here, last night after watching some videos regarding jelly bean, i really cant wait for the official update and decided to root my phone, so i followed all the necessary steps and unlocked bootloader installed clockworkmod and as the instructions said, i wiped all cache, factory reseting done and when i chose to install the ROM from sd card its just not loading an shwing me some error. I tried alot i got a backup created before rooting but even restore is not working when i tried.

Clock work = unreliable twrp recovery = reliable
What Rom did you try to flash can u give me the link please

Agree, use TWRP and not CWM.
What CWM did you install, and what ROM. Maybe another case of installing the wrong recovery or ROM for the Tegra3 One X.

Sounds like you are trying to install a ROM for the quad core version. You better be happy it is giving you a warning, or else you might have had a very expensive paperweight.

When you get to the bootloader screen (the white screen with a bunch of small text and words like "fastboot" and "bootloader") do you see the word "evita" or "endeavoru"? If so, which one? This thread is in the evita forum and the two devices, although identical to the naked eye, re completely incompatible.

Stuck in CWM

Good afternoon fellas.
Have a customers phone here who decided to install an update for his rooted system by SD Card and has essentially "bricked" his device from what it looks like, or soft brick. It will load every time to CWM Recovery but I cannot mount the SD card through commands which will not allow me to run a new rom or flash the backup that was made. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advanced valued community.

Have you tried to mount system in mounts and storage in cwm ? If so have you also tried flashing backup? If its not mounting I'm not sure if it will work but scripts usually these days via roms and such will auto mount. But try this.

I have tried it and it says error cant mount sd card. the computer sees the phone and registers it has storage but it says storage corrupted and I can't seem to get the sd card to mount no matter what

Can you be a little more clear about the issue??
SD card not detectable?? Which recovery the phone has??

It was already said in the OP

Not trying to be rude by any means, the phone just loops through CWM even after factory reset, after loading the recovery made and an unmountable sd card through CWM commands

have you tried other sd card to check if it mounts or not?

rediculously enough......no
Just tried and same error

maybe the CWM recovery is broken, try with kdz to flash a stock rom and start all over, if kdz recognize the phone

where would I find KDZ, my google search turned up nothing that looked usable

root with superoneclick 2.3.3 only with exploit on auto, maybe it will not work the first time, for me worked 3rd time if I remember, dunno maybe it was superoneclick maybe Iam noob

unfortunately none of these seem to look or read like theyll work for me, phone is already rooted with custom recovery and I do not want to further damage a customers device

or maybe you need to just reflash recovery

That would mean just adding it to sd and flashing such as roms and gapps do...correct?

try to search other recoverys, follow the tutorial or ask the dev how to, in your case, older rom manager allowed to install amonra or older cwm but now it doesn't, so search forum for a different recovery and ask how to install it, or maybe it is the phone to blame...... do a visual check for the sd port of the phone to see if all is ok, bytheway you didn't mention if the phone boot or not
some blame cwm and rom manager becauze they do not like it or does not know hot to use it or maybe they are just bored, I use cwm for over a year I had flashed over 50 roms through cwm on a single phone and nothing bad happened , thats why the user is allways to blame, because it doesn't apreciate the other people work and doesn't follow the instructions because he knows better, CWM IS GREAT as long as the user does nothing stupid and wants to blame others for his fault, same for other tested and working recoverys
