Phone: Rogers i896
I have been through Multiple stock Roms of 2.1, 2.2, 2.3
Lets take a simple example of 2.1 where I flash into CWM, install CM7 but I am stuck in install loop, all it does is tries to install, shows me flashing screen which is way too quick for me to read and but I have managed to read some lines and they probably say
E: Cannot find or Cannot update
No Such file or Directory
Like I said, since last 3 days - whatever I do I am stuck in that. I have tried formatting internal SD Card, tried to install from External SD Card but no go
Boot into cwm, factory reset, install from sd card. If you boot loop, repeat procedure again.

Sometimes you have to hold the recovery buttons down for a long while, at least 4 or 5 flashes of the i896 page. This worked for me a few times (Rogers i896). But the only thing I found that worked when I got stuck in boot loops was flashing stock Froyo with Heimdall. Can you boot into download mode?

Pull the battery, reinsert battery,then with phone off, press volume up + volume down + power. Hold those buttons until you see the first boot screen. Hold it about 5 seconds, then release.
OK, so I went to recovery mode - deleted factory/clean - and tried with MIUI - that worked?? can I install CM 7 on top of MIUI?

That's good to hear. MIUI is a very good ROM and is based on CM7 so there should be no problem flashing CM7.1 from MIUI (I do it all the time). Go into ROM manager and flash CWM to 3.x before flashing CM though.
Sweet, that worked too. I now have CM7 - would it better to CWM and factory reset now? so everything is clean or not recommended and/or doesnt matter?
I have used MIUI - few drawbacks, some apps dont work + screenshot is not as simple as CM7

Did you do the wipes in CWM before you installed the zip? If so I wouldn't worry about it if not a reset doesn't hurt.
Copy Rom to sdcard.
Go to download mode (Vol- + Vol+ + USB plug PC)
Use odin and flash to stock JF6
Feed talon 1.2 --> CWM --> factory reset --> install zip file -> choose zip file --> new rom

I'm a noob and I tried to install 3e recovery using the instructions and video supplied in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1105413
Everything seemed to work fine until I went into ROM manager and tried to backup current ROM (stock, rooted). I selected backup ROM and now my phone is sitting with the SAMSUNG logo and it hasn't moved from that in almost an hour. I'm not sure what to do to get the phone to boot up normally. I have done a battery pull but that didn't work. When I plug the phone into my computer, XP does recognize that is plugged in because it shows the internal and external sd cards in the My Computer window. I can't open either on by double clicking on the icon for each drive. I'm getting pretty desperate because I can't seem to figure out how to get the phone to boot normally. Any help and/or suggestions would be most helpful. Thanks!!!
Odin flash to stock in dev section
try a hard reset. you shouldnt pull batteries unless it is the last resort, linux needs to unmount the file system.
a hard reset(different from a factory reset) is accomplished by holding the vol up +vol dn + power at the same time untill the phone reboots. if you wait till the samsung screen pops up again and immediately release you may also enter 3e recovery mode.
try to just boot the phone into the ui first. if it is still ok, go into rom manager and "flash cwm recovery" choose captivate or i9000. reboot into 3e recovery(blue text), (select reboot recovery not backup) reinstall packages twice! you should now be at a green text cwm recovery. once you get it setup the backup link in rom manager should work.
if the phone fails to boot up after a hard reset, you can attemp to clear user data in 3e recovery. you can get to 3e with phone off(you may pull battery now if you need to) hold vol up+ vol dn + pwr and hold untill you see the "samsung" screen. then you can clear data/factory reset
if that doesn't help you can still use odin/heimdall to restore the phone with one of the roms that may already have modded 3e recovery and other nice features.
Thanks for all your help! I managed to get it back working using Odin. Now I'm on the Infused ROM and loving life. I'm going to save this post just in case I get into trouble again down the road.

2: Download 3e recovery save it to your SD card
3: Use root explorer to move the 3e recovery file to systim bin overwrite recovery file
4: Reboot phone
5: Download Rom manager and click flash clock work mod pic i9000 not the (mtd)
6: Once its done select reboot in recovery
7: In recovery click RE-INSTALL it should load then click re-install again and u should get green cwm then reboot and flash away

This is an old useless method... just Odin flash the community kernel v8... done..

I have had that same boot screen problem too, buy a jig and u can put it into download mode that way then when you use odin3 to restore stock, u can get the stock rom with the recovery in it for u and u just need to download the update.zip on rom manager and then go into recovery and run the update zip twice. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1092021
You should get a jig (http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw...dkw=jig&_osacat=0&_trksid=p3286.c0.m270.l1313) its a life saver in my opinion. because u can restore ur phone if u ever mess up.
I too am stuck at the Samsung logo. I've used Odin to revert to stock but I think the Stock I reverted to was AT&T rather than Rogers? I can't seem to find the Rogers stock. I've tried to get it into recovery mode, taking out the battery booting with power up and down, releasing power when the Samsung logo came up - no good, the logo stays. I'm at a loss? Any advice? Is the a full raft of pit / pda etc files for Odin that I can make the Rogers Infuse as it was day one?
Thanks for any help
I'm in the same boat... maybe it's because the rogers infuse comes as android 2.3? I hope a solution comes out soon!
Same here, Rogers Infuse. Stuck at Samsung logo. Tried infuse odin recovery, and community. Still no go. I tried flashing all the different stock/unbrick roms but nothing.
However, if I install Infused kernel/recovery, i can access the recovery and do a wipe/lagfix.
I was trying to flash to Infused and when I got to the step where the phone rebooted to CWM recovery it hang on the Samsung logo. After about 3 hours of trying various button resets the phone booted normally (ie not to CWM). They say the definition of insanity is trying the same thing over and over and expecting different results, well I went back through the same steps to flash to infused and again it froze on the Samsung logo, only I have no idea what I did last time to get it to boot normal, not to CWM. Since it did it before, there must be a combination...anybody know what it might be. I've read and tried everything on the forums. Thought I'd post here prior to using Odin. I am able to get to downloading screen by doing the button/USB cable combo.
I'm headed out of town and won't check this right away, but thanks for any posts with ideas.

Rogers Infuse users need to use the UXKG3 unbrick, not the UCKD5 or E3 unbricks.
The UXKG3 variant tends to fall to the second or third pages of the dev forum since it's far less commonly used.
Holy Crap - im hooped without my phone for work...!

Hi guys,
Here is the solution for this issue.
Just flash with this package that will totally reset your Infuse 4G to UCKJ4, do it with linux that worked for me.

The few last posts have mirrors. You are gonna need the odin pack to flash back to stock and then work your way up.
You need to flash ICS before flashing JB.
Infuse 4G wont boot - no root, CWM, Passcode locked
Hi guys
I dont know where to start from. This Infuse 4G was dropped by the owner and we happened to come across it.
Checked the SIM card but that was already deactivated and there were no contacts on it.
Then we wanted to check the phonebook and find someone to contact, but the phone was passcode locked.
Then i went and flashed Odin_Community_Kernel_v8.zip since it was on GB, but it doesnt seem to be booting. I was planning on adb-ing into it when it was in recovery (CWM) so that i could delete the passcode and find a way to get in touch with the owner.
Now am stuck at the Samsung logo...:crying:
After flashing the latest ROM I was messing around with (WajkIUI 2.1.6) the phone would crash and reboot within 30 seconds of booting up. The previous ROM that was running was FAUXMIUI_RG2xV2.0.0 (01/08/2011 [v2.0.0]OVERCLOCK) that was stable except for when I’d turn wi-fi on after being off for 8 hours or so phone would reboot.
I figured I would boot into ClockworkMod Recovery and restore one of the nandroid backups, I tried booting into recovery I found out that I could not. When I hold the volume down and press the power button I see the screen that says software update (like when flashing with OneClickRecoveryFlasher).
Whenever I flash a new ROM I will Wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, and then wipe dalvik before installing zip. I’ve always run cyanogenmod nighties; FAUXMIUI_RG2xV2.0.0 was the first MIUI ROM I’ve used.
When I run OneClickRecoveryFlasher, I do not see any errors on the command prompt so I am assuming it was successful, or at least thinks it was.
I tried to Restore LG G2x Stock Recovery using OneClickRecoveryFlasher and then flashing v5.0.2.0 and still no ClockworkMod Recovery, also tried v4.0.1.5 and still no ClockworkMod Recover.
I then tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1248644 and with that I was able to get back to stock 2.3.3, tried to use OneClickRecoveryFlasher to flash ClockworkMod, still no go.
I tried LG Mobile Update and that proceeded to install something, not really sure what the update was, after the update finished, phone rebooted into stock 2.3.3. Shut the phone down and tried to flash ClockworkMod and still nothing.
I did a hard reset following http://mobilephonerepairguides.blogspot.com/2011/04/lg-g2x-hard-reset.html
I also tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1183168, that got me to stock 2.3.3 but I still could not boot in to ClockwordMod Recovery.
I’m having a hell of a time wrapping my head around what I screwed up. Did I somehow destroy the recovery partition, is that possible? Any ideas what I broke and how to fix it? Can I used adb to view the partition table, would that tell me if something was corrupt?
Any help and ideas would be appreciated, I have tried doing my due diligence and I apologize if I missed something obvious.
Thanks,
-Matt
Faux never made a miui
Did you nvflashed recovery? If no then do that first.
NVIDIA NEVER AGAIN!
If you did the LG Updater it returned your phone to stock everything, including recovery. You need to use NVFlash (One Click method okay) to reflash CWM and then you should be good to go.
When the phone is completely off, hold volume down, then hold the power button and don't let go of both until the second lg logo.
If you hold volume down too early it'll give you the software update screen.
Well that's embarrassing, thanks buru898 that did the trick and got me into CWM Recovery. I never remember holding the power button for that long but it worked and I'll remember that for next time.
Thanks

if you're running miui, try posting in the miui Q/A, you might get more help.
Sounds odd that you would lose recovery like that.
idk..you can try downloading "quickboot" from the market.
it has some extended power menu options, including recovery.
if you lost recovery somehow, odin or heimdall will be your friend.
see my sigs
Its common many have lost the recovery including ME when flashed MIUI, check the OP of the MIUI thread by boost there is how you can get the recovery back.

RECOVERY FIX

1: Download sgs kernel flasher
2: Download CWM community kernel
3: Flash kernel via sgs kernel flasher "unchecked the reboot button" when done flashing turn phone of "SHUTDOWN"
4: 3 finger until the Samsung logo pops up keep holding the buttons the screen will go black then Samsung logo will come up, let go of the power button and keep hold the volume up and down buttons "For about 20 seconds" then let go it should boot into Red CWM after a few seconds.
5: Go to install zip from SD card go all the way down and run update.zip it will boot back into RED CWM run update.zip again and it should now boot into GREEN CWM
6: From here Re-Flash MIUI "New Release would be smart", Wipe Fact,Wipe Cache, Wipe Dalvik, Flash, reboot at sign of Samsung logo pull battery, 3 finger into blue recovery and flash again.
7: Presto you should be set and have recovery back.

You haven't searched that bad, if not you would have come across this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1396229
Anyway, are you rooted? if you are rooted and did a factory reset then you don't have a Rom in your phone and that is why you are stuck on the splash screen. You even wiped everything, so probably erased usb debugging drivers from the device.
Well, you have these choices: 1) If you still can access your custom recovery (CWM or 4EXT) then you need to put a rom in your sdcard and flash it. You will have your phone back. You can even restore a nand backup and have your system as it was at that time.
2) If you are S-OFF, but can not access a custom recovery, then flash it again and follow option 1)
3) Use a PD98IMG.zip file to flash a RUU in hboot and you will get back. In the link I provided above, you have several links to those files.
In all cases, you will need an sdcard reader or someway to get the files to your sdcard.
Hope it helps....
thanks!!!!

Did you read the link that glevitan posted a couple posts above yours? Did you try what it says? Which option? What happened?
Hey
So I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0" GT-P3110.
I followed this guide to flash my tab with a 4.2.2 ROM.
Everything went fine, all downloaded and everything, I wiped the memory, and formatted the device, and then when I pressed choose zip from external sd, it said it wasn't mounted. I then pressed back, and the device rebooted. Now it just shows the samsung boot logo, and shuts down.
I can't get back into recovery mode now!
I tried pressing power on and volume up + down at the same time, doesn't work.
What do I do D:
There is a backup of the OS on the actual device itself, I made one before, so I figured that if I can get back into clockwork recovery, i can install the backup, and then copy over the ROM to the internal storage where I can install it from there.
But i can't get back into clockwork recovery mod D: Help, please!!

If its the same procedure like my Galaxy S, you have to search for a firmware, most likely 3part
