Hi, first of all thanks in advance to anyone who will try and solve my problem.
I unlocked my xoom using thi tread

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...

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!

need some help

hello all,
tried flashing using cwm the new rom that's floating around...tried wiping always getting stuck at the galaxy s 4g boot screen. Well i can't boot into recovery, sort of freaking out here. I hold the buttons and it just goes back to galaxy s 4g screen not into recovery like it usually does. Any ideas?
Even if u cant get into recovery as long as the device will go into download mode again then ur okay! Just reodin the KD1 whitehawkx if thats what u where on. Sucks starting all over but thats the price we pay to test. Good luck my friend and never fear your device is not bricked it is still recoverable.

Odin back in..from there look into krylons cwm recovery and back up..the official cwm back up and restore results from other members dont seem to be doing well. After that you should be able to restore and not have to worry

is kyrlons cwm recovery and back up a different thread?
yes it is a different thread i believe its called CWM Final. Im running Stock KD1 from whitehawkxs, fota&fugu tweaks plus the gb theme and the bali 1.4 kernel... pretty smooth..
on another thought you probably should have posted this in the general section. just a heads up..
Good advice depackers1 but i think he was already using CWM and had backups but he got himself into a bootloop that wouldnt allow him to get into recovery so he couldnt use CWM. In this case if a person cannot even get into download mode then u will have to use a jig probably.
And kkoshko1 since it seems u are starting from scratch and u said u were on stock rooted so i assume u mean KB5. I would recommend trying whitehawkx KD1 ODIN. U might as well update to the best rom we have right now. KD1 is still stock but has some improvements from KB5. Hope that helps.

Basically he was telling u to check out CWM and then make a backup after u get CWM up and running.

you guys are great and i'm trying odin right now and doing the noob thread, hopefully this works i'll report back...so far in download mode!
okay update. IT WORKED LIKE A F*CKING CHARM! lol booted up just fine. You both deserve metals, i was worried for a minute but thanks for your help and all you guys do!
Sure thing brother! Glad we could help!!!!!!! Odin will always be your bestfriend. Since u were on stock here's a couple more suggestions. Try out drhonks bali kernel. It will save u a ton of battery life and open the door for a few other awesome things that u can find out in the bali thread. U can also free up some internal storage with the fota fix. Try the apk that one of our members created. Also try the fugu tweaks. It will make your application processes much faster. Welll have fun bro and im sure glad u got her up and running again!

Where are you coming from and what are you trying to get to?
With out specifics, sounds like you need to Odin or heimdall back to stock and add a new recovery
Edit: goto the q,a threads. Lots of previous threads posted that will help you

I have a stock Infuse. I was able to root the device but thats about it. I can do nothing. It has UCKH1 on it now and I was wanting to go to MIUI Rom. I ran MIUI on my Vibrant and like it very much. But until I can get the recovery on, I can not do anything.

Download the Stock + root + modded 3e package and follow they instructions. I use this every time I want to go back to stock between roms, and it roots and installs the modded recovery (cwm) for you. So easy. Idk why more people don't use this.

[Q] Stuck on Samsung Screen after CWM reboot.. PLEASE HELP! SOLVED...

Not really sure what happened..
My phone wouldn't reboot properly.. kept getting "Force Close" for any number of processes on my screen. So I decided to go into CWM to recover a previous backup. It seemed to go well. But when it rebooted, it now stays on the Samsung Screen and nothing else happens. I've tried to get back into CWM by holding down Volume and Power buttons.. but again .. nothing happens.. Just keeps going to the Samsung Screen and freezing there..
I have NO IDEA what to do now.
Any and all help is so greatly appreciated!!
Thank you in advance.
Can you get into download mode? Hold the volume up and down button then while the phone is plugged in the USB. From there, do a one-click back to stock.

See the purple link in my sig flash the one click in it and you will be rooted however only use it as a stepping stone to one of the GB stock based roms or ICS flavors. And yes you have to reinstall your apps.

Quick question.. First off.. Thank you so much for all your help..
My question is.. after I do this one click.. can I then install [ROM] Valhalla Final [KJ6 Based].. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1402966
It says that : Must have pre-installed kernel with clockwork recovery!
Yes if you installed the one click I created or installed the one click with antonx's kernel.
