can't get a rom on razr maxx - General Questions and Answers

I have a droid razr that was rooted with bootstrap and cwm. I was trying to install a rom called gummy 1.0.1. I backed up my stock rom with cwm. installed gummy on my sd card and deleted my old rom. but when I went to unzip gummy it said installation aborted, then my phone did a reboot now my phone is stuck on the moto screen. I can't get to cwm. but I can get to the boot mode. If I go to fast boot my pc dose not see my phone and I do have the latest drivers. If I go to recovery I can get to system recovery and go to my sd card. I found cwm / backup but it won't do any thing. So my question is if I can put my sd card into my pc can I put something on it to get mo old rom back? Since I can not plug it in with my usb cable. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank the Newbe!

[Q] Samsung Captivate HELP!

HELP!
I tried loading some ROMs on my Samsung Captivate and after a couple of successful attemps ( i just didnt like the look of them ) i tired another one and it didn't work. My phone would no longer fully boot. And after me screwing around for a while, everything on the internal sd card got erased and i no longer have any ROMs there to install. And now the phone wont startup and i cant see it on the computer.
Is there anyway I can install a ROM from either my ex sd card, or my computer and is there a way to put the ROM onto the phone.
Well since you wiped your SD card, your. update. zip for clockwork recovery is gone. So you wont be able to just go into recovery now and mount your SD card to add a new rom from pc or re-install one saved. If only you wouldn't have wiped the SD. Easiest way i can think of would be just go in downloadmode and flash back to stock, depending on your revisiion ( mine is 1008) I'd use the A10 toolbox/ captivate toolbox. It has everything you'll need. So.. stock, re-root ( either superoneclickroot or A10 toolbox ) get rom manager, flash clockwork, go into stock recov. And re install packages twice, put a rom. On your phone , back to recovery, install zip from SD.

Try putting it into download mode (I forgot how to do it so google it). And then once your in download mode, download the original firmware onto your computer, and then use Odin to flash back to stock . This process has worked with my old Vibrant time and time again.

Nexus S won't boot to OS

I have the Nexus S from Telus.
It was rooted, unlocked, running CM7. However I've been having issues with it freezing and decided I want to go back to the stock rom.
I ended up downloading what I thought was stock ROM for my phone (Stock GRH78 Nandroid Backup in this Tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884093) however after it flashed my phone, I ended up with a phone which was essentially stuck in Airplane mode, would not connect to Telus. I'm guessing that it has the wrong radio for my phone/carrier?
So then I ended up finding a zip file someone posted Stock-GRJ22-i9020A-unsigned which should have worked, I ended up flashing the zip file from recovery.
It said it installed fine. Rebooted, and now the phone just cycles the Samsung Loading screen endlessly.
I tried to go back to recovery, and it gives me yellow triangle with !.
Is there any way to flash the recovery image back to the phone?
I plug the phone in and the PC won't recognize a device.
I installed the Android SDK
Ran the command adb devices, no devices attached to the PC.
I tried fastboot devices - blank
I don't know how I'll be able to get files back onto the phone SD Card for flashing etc...
I had the exact problem two days ago...flashed an image that jacked my phone up. Wouldn't boot past the google logo. Sat there indefinitely.
Read this thread and see if you can get it work. In a nutshell, you need the PDA net drivers installed. Since PDA net can't install the app on your phone (because it's not booted into an OS) leave the install program in limbo and voila, fast boot will work. From there, push the recovery.img (google Clockworkmod recovery image), boot into recovery and you are off to the races.
This is, of course, assuming you already have a ROM image on your internal SD card you can flash to get back up and running. I'm not sure how to install a .zip image ROM if you can't gain access to your SD card.

Good luck, I know the feeling. It blows.
Ah, just found out how to install a file on a phone that won't boot.
You do need to flash CWM recovery first though.

Good news! I tried a factory reset/data wipe and rebooted the phone.
It doesn't hang anymore, all functions restored and the phone is working on Telus again!
I guess I had to format data, clear cache, before the flash of the rom.
So relieved.
Issue has been solved!

[Q] CWM boot problem. HELP!

Hey guy's I am running CWM on my EEPAd and until recently I was running revolver mod pre ICS. I downloaded ROM manager from the market place to get the back-up of the Revolver ROM. After I installed rom manager and started the back-up it froze half way and rebooted my transformer. When the tablet rebooted it went into recovery automatically and I seem to have lost the revolver mod after trying different methods to fix it I did a full format on my SD-card and I still can't get CWM to read the updated files on my sdcard. On a side note CWM only reads what was on the SD card before the update even after i for mated it having nothing on there. And if I try to use a previous recovery I just get a "mD5" dosent match error sign.
I hope you can help.

[Q] always boots into recovery

My G2X is rooted and flashed with CWM recovery v6.0.2.5. I was attempting to install a new ROM, and it stalled forever at the LG screen with the blue background. The phone boots into recovery mode and will execute any of the recovery commands. I've tried installing ROM zips from the external SD, but when I reboot it always returns to recovery mode. I can mount USB storage and see the internal and external SD cards.
What am I doing wrong?
Isn't that version the experimental version of cwm? The one wwith touch screen capability? I would downgrade to v5.x.x.x and see if that helps. Its the version i use and have never had any issues with it
-custom sig.
The downgrade seems to have done the trick. Thanks.
No problem sir.

Can you still get into recovery? If so use adb to push the ROM to the phone.
Why did you format everything and the SD card... That as you found out wipes everything out. Even if you had a backup on the device it would of wiped it. You should always keep a backup of the device and efs saved off the device to a PC.
Hold the power button for 20 seconds, that'll turn off the phone. Then boot into recovery and adb push a Rom to it. If you can't do that then fastboot flash the factory image

Thankyou guys for your comments~!
I finally figured out.
To fix this what i did was
1.to boot the phone , pressed volume volume down+power.
2.installed the CW recovery using adb.
3.went in to the CW recovery and selected "install zip from sideload".
4.installed CM 11 succesfully using adb.
5.done!!
Now everything looks good but
my sim card is not getting detected.
I doubt the radio software didnt install at all.
Please let me know if i need to install any other software or i am missing something here!!
