I had the same problem the other day. Wound up having to use nvflash to flash Prime 1.4 images. All set now running Prime 1.6
The only downside is it wipes all of the partitions clean =/

Have you tried flashing on the root boot.img again just start the pad wth power and vol+ ? you could try one of the unbrick rutines in the developer forum.

Help lol bootloader prob

So how would I know for sure if my bootloader is unlocked can't flash any kernel but ez unlock says its unlocked
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app

When your phone is powered of completely, hold the power and volume down keys at the same time. This will then bring up a white screen with a load of text. Look at the top and if it says 'S-off' then I assume you've unlocked the boot loader. If it says 'S-on' I assume not. But this isn't always the case.
Try it anyway and if this helps please leave a thank you

That is just for HTC devices.
Just reboot your phone and if the first samsung logo when booting up disappears quickly then you have an unlocked biitloader.

The simplest way to tell is if you reboot your device and if the first splash screen that appears flashes "Samsung" really quick, then you are unlocked. If you are not unlocked it will stay up for a second or two.

You are rooted, yes? If that's not the issue I'm not sure what else it could be.

Yes been rooted can flash ROMs but not kernel
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app

What version of ez unlock are you using? Make sure you use version 1.2. The later versions don't work.

Actually they do work as I used 1.4 and the only thing is that it says unknown. Also once it gives you the prompt saying the phone is unlocked you flash a custom recovery to see if you have successfully unlocked the bootloader.

You probably flashed an incompatible kernel. Basically if you flash a kernel meant for ICS it won't work on jelly bean and vice versa.

It has been widely known/reported that 1.4/1.3 are non-functional. I think you are the first person I've seen to claim otherwise. Maybe it works for some? All I know is that 1.4 did not work for me I had to revert to 1.2, and this is the same for everyone else in the ez unlock thread on Rootz.

I'm assuming you downloaded ez-unlock from the market? That's version 1.4, which has been widely reported as non-functional. Uninstall the current app then download version 1.2 from this thread and install it:
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/32456-app-920-ez-unlock-14-easiest-way-to-unlock-your-bootloader/
That should fix your problem if it doesn't then there is something else wrong.

Post a link to what kernel you're trying to flash. Also, which rom are you on-AOSP OR TW and which Android version is it?

I finally got faux main line v15 to work via a ROM with aroma installer so idk what the hell I was doing wrong but I was wrong somewhere

I'm sure somebody knows an answer to this, but I'm just gonna say it. You need a case.

Way to respect the OP by still making the useless reply and besides don't you think it's a little late for a case?
And do a search

I
So first register at www.sammobile.com, then search SGH-T769 under firmware and download the August 2012 ICS or The Feb 2013 ICS Firmware, wait for the download to finish (took me 30 minutes) then extract which ever firmware zip you downloaded then using Odin click on PDA and select the .md5 file which is located in the extracted ICS Firmware Folder that you've downloaded from sammobile.com
Download the PIT file here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1919228
Click on PIT in Odin and then select the one downloaded from the link above
then make sure re-partition isn't checked and start the flashing process after it is done flashing and reboots you'll have stock ics to root it simply follow the instructions over at the root ics stock thread found here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1919228
This will flash a custom recovery and once the recovery is flashed using Odin reboot into recovery and flash the superuser.zip then you'll have Rooted Stock ICS Firmware or if you want you could just skip flashing superuser.zip and just flash a custom rom.
*BOOT LOOP MIGHT OCCUR*
To fix boot looping after flashing stock ICS just boot into stock or custom recovery and wipe data and cache then reboot and you're good to go.

We don't have official 4.1.2 from T-Mobile or Samsung but what we do have is custom roms which are built on Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean, have you ever flashed a custom rom or are you new to rooting and custom roms?
