I just got a new Verizon S3 about a week ago and a few days ago I followed the instructions in the Original development section to install the CM10 nighties. Everything was working great but just a little bit ago I tried to upgrade to the newest build through the clockworkmod rom manager that was installed with cm10 but now when I restart the phone just constantly boot loops. It shows the samsung screen followed by samsung screen (but with booting recovery at the top) and finally the android dude for a few secs then just repeats! How do I fix my phone! Or did I F**K myself good?

Can you get into recovery (volume up + home + power) to try flashing a previous rom download or restore a backup? If that doesn't work, you'll probably need to Odin your way back to stock or stock.root66 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1762709)

Ok I was able to get into recovery. I tried restoring a backup but that did not help I am now going to try and re install the downloaded rom. I might just odin back to stock I don't know if my nerves can handle the stress of this mod thing.
I tried installing from downloaded rom and that did not work ether. I down loaded the odin and the Samsung drivers but the drivers don't seem to be installing right. The phone shows up under devices and printers but has an ! on it. I tried telling it to update the driver by had but I got this error:
Code:
Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it
SAMSUNG Mobile MTP DEVICE
This device cannot start (Code 10)
I have the device booted in to recovery ClockworkMod Recovery because thats the only place I can get it with out it continually restarting. (I thought that the Recovery I had was called K-exec or somthing? It looks the same I think though so I am not sure. Is that what broke my system did I break somthing my flashing ClockWorkMod recovery over K-exec? Can I fix that from clockWorkMod Recovery. HELP
Odin back to stock to be safe.

Odin is a PC program. You need to go into download mode to connect to it and flash back to stock.

I don't think I can get into download mode(If thats the thing with the yellow triangle) you do that with (vol up+power+home) right. Then I press that combo I go to ClockworkMod Recovery v5.8.4.8. I think I have tried most all the options from there.

Ok never mind download mod is down arrow. I read the web page wrong. Whats more is I was able to install drivers once I entered download mode so it looks like I might be alright. I am downloding stock rom now and will update you all soon. Thanks for your help and patience with my n00bness
actually download mode is hold volume down +home (button on the front in center) + power till the screen shows download mode

Probably true or at least I should have done my homework first.
we all learn somewhere. funny how thought of a brick gets people researching more than they normally would, right? lol, all been there
Upgrade your recovery from cwm touch to cwm 6.whatever.it.is. Cwm touch is buggy. I don't know how exactly you do that if it's not booting to the rom but maybe this can help point you down the right path.

Downside of all the one click this and one click that. You should be required to root at least once using odin and adb before having access to the one click tools as you may end up needing those down the road.

If you really don't wanna take the risk you can just delete it all with Titanium Backup. But hey, if you really want to, go right ahead. Just do a little more research before you jump in. We've all been there, though, so don't feel stupid.

I got a little happy last night and tried tinkering with my SGS, and ended up causing it not to boot up. It currently just sits at the Samsung Galaxy S 4G logo screen, so now I'm just trying to go back to stock and start over.
I do not have odin (still not really sure what it is), but I do have CWM and I've wanted to flash this rom; but towards the end of the thread, some users say not to flash this and to use some other rom with odin instead.
Also, this rom won't even flash in CWM. It just says "installation aborted."
Thanks
I just tried flashing this with Odin, using these instructions, and I just got the bricked screen......
Can someone please help me.
recover a nandroid backup...
If you can't figure out Odin, but can boot into recovery, reinstall packages to get into CWM. Then you can restore to your last nandroid backup.
I can no longer boot into recovery or download. I'm stuck at the screen with the phone and computer with the yellow triangle in between. Odin still recognizes my phone when I plug it in (I think), but that's it. Also, I don't understand what there is to "figure out" about odin anyway. I followed the directions exactly, and the flash simply failed in Odin and when I rebooted, I got stuck at the bricked screen.
Looks like a trip to T-Mobile is in order...

YOU DID NOT BRICK YOUR PHONE!!!!!
when i pulled the cord on my phone during download mode and odin it gave me the same screen as you
THIS DOES NOT MEAN THAT ITS BRICKED
your computer will still recognize your phone and SO WILL ODIN!
that screen is basically another download mode
heres what you do:
download whitehawkx kd1 deodexed
go into download mode like you normally would and plug the phone in
you will notice that odin still recognizes your phone
in odin ONLY press the PDA option and then choose whitehawkx PDA_KD1 file
flash and wait for reset.... then BAM your phone has the new kd1 rom and its not bricked
i promise you the screen your getting doesnt mean a brick, ive seen that screen like 10 times throughout my flashing days
^ omfg man, you seriously just saved my entire Sunday. I have no idea why it didn't work like this when I first tried it, I literally went through the same steps.
Thank you so much.

yea you need:
Odin
any sgs4g rom like whitehawkx kd1 deodexed
take your battery out, put it back in and hold both the up and down volume buttons, then while holding them down plug your phone into your computer via usb and you will enter DOWNLOAD MODE from there you open odin on your computer and click only the PDA option look for the whitehawkx pda_kd1 file you downloaded and click start
that should fix it

Flash it with one of the options you've been linked to by Kyndig. The first two are for Odin the last for Heimdall. That's an alternate DL mode your looking at. It still works the same.

I tried ODIN recovery to get back to stock, by my PC doesnt recognize my device (because ODIN requires device to be in download mod). So how can I fix this? Please help me.

First... what where you doing to get it on blue cmw in the first place?
Also im not saying you are doing it wrong... and im SURE you have tried like 1000 times but lets check:
1.-pull battery out
2.-connect cable to PC and to phone
3.- while connected to PC and battery OUT press BOTH volume keys at same time
4.-while pressing both volume keys and conected to pc trough micro usb introduce the battery
Thats how you go into DL mode... if it DOESNT.... damn... you messed up your bootloader? at the VERY least you should get a:
"Phone-----!-----Computer"
sign....
Not working still? hmm get an usb jig on ebay/amazing or anyplace you like to FORCE the DL mode... still try the steps i provided before... when entering DL mode only 2 buttons nedded not 3 like on CMW recovery read the steps... then try... try.... and try.
If nothing yet:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Samsung-Gal...Accessories&hash=item3cbb7b1e8c#ht_2419wt_905
or something similar... yet im 99% sure doing the correct steps should work.
And i repeat... im not saying your doing it wrong... electronic devices may fail anytime still... put the human part to work and read well the instructions and do them as said before we can blame a piece of metal/plastic xD
I really hope you can get it fixed.
Thanks for the detail steps koriotto.. I exchanged at ATT.

Good evening everyone.
I bought Samsung galaxy tab 7.7 GT-P6800 about month ago. It's been working fine, till this saturday. When i tried to unlock my Tab, device didn't respond. I tried to power it on, but still no response. Hm, the reason of this thing is only one - too low battery. So, i putted my device on charge (saw battery icon on screen). After 2 hours, I came back and tried to power my device again, but it freezed with this battery icon. I hold power button for 10-15 seconds and my device started to load, but it got freezed on "Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7". My Tab is rooted, but firmware is official.
What my DEVICE CAN'T DO:
* Can't load into CWM (freezing at "Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7";
* Can't Power on;
* Can't charge;
* Can't connect to PC.
What my DEVICE CAN DO:
* Load into Downloading mode.
Is it possible to restore my Tab? If yes, how to do it, using Downloading mode (Kies doesn't see my tab)? Please help.
Thanks for your help.

I feel sorry about that. Do you clean install your ROM? If you can now go to CWM Recovery, then it would be good. You can try factory reset in CWM.
I had the same issue this is when the flashed Rom is damaged.You need to install the originap Samsung Rom which can be bought from samsung or give your tab to a repair shop they will have the neccery things.

What firmware were you using on your tablet, while you were flashing CWM? Why I am asking it, is because i tried lots of different firmwares to install CWM and i couldn't boot into CWM niether with honeycomb, nor with ICS. And yeah thanks for your help.

I started with ICS stock but after my initial flash did't work I believe I wasn't really running any rom because it didn't work.
I then went into Odin/download mode (holding volume down and power).
once in I used the cwm-6.0.2.3-p6800.tar file and loaded it under "Bootloader" then I flashed that successfully.
to then get into recovery I hold Volume up + power (for a very long time about 20secs).
Once in recovery then you can begin the above guide to repair the sdcard.
Hope that helps.
Thanks again for your reply.
I did exactly everything you wrote, even installed original ICS firmware again using Odin. Flashed recovery, hold Power + Vol Up buttons for like 5 minutes, but f*** this, still didn't boot into recovery. Erh.. my device is broken forever.. No solution for all this..

How do you flash CWM using ODIN? CWM isn't a Bootloader, nor a PDA, nor a Phone, nor a CSC.
Thanks in advance, hope I'll get back my Galaxy Tab 7.7!
1. go to download mode
2. connect your device to your pc and start odin
3. put the cwm files on phone section of odin
4. flash awayyyyy....

Yaaaaay! Problem solved! My Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7. P6800 is alive again!
The problem was so easy, that i laught alot, when solved it. The problem was with micro SDcard. I used micro SDcard from my last Nokia phone, but Nokia's micro SDcard didn't approach to SGT7.7, but it approached ONLY by the size! So I used another micro SDcard, which I got when I bougt my Tab! Woohoo, i'm so happy now :laugh:

My note n8013 has a Redemption rom which I have had for a couple of months with no problems. Sorry don't remember the version. Either way I come home one day and its stuck on the boot animation screen. So i reboot it and it has the normal samsung boot screen, then it gets to the rom animation screen and gets stuck again. I cannot get pass this screen at all. Next I try to boot into TWRP so that I can restore to a previous backup. As I hold the power and volume up and reboot I then let go on power and keep holding volume up, then I get to see the TWRP logo, it disappears and reboots. So I am unable to get into TWRP. So then I go into download mode which seems to get there fine, but no matter what I try to flash with odin it fails. I have the same version odin v1.85 and drivers I had when I first started messing with this. I then try all the new versions still no go. I have tried to get the latest TWRP and CWM with odin. Nothing. I have also tried a compatible rom and nothing. Many thanks in advance.

By any chance are you using Windows 8 with Odin? I've heard there could be problems with W8...

Sorry I forgot to mention what version of windows. I am using Windows 7 SP1 64bit. I am just wondering why I cannot load TWRP direct from my Note anymore. Like I said it shows up and disappears. I have backups I made from that, just cannot get back to restore it.

Did you try to do a factory reset in TWRP and or clear the cache?
Then try to reload factory ROM in Oden.

I am unable to load TWRP. The main screen comes up and then it disappears.

I think it makes sense for me to brick this some how and maybe get a warranty swap. I've only had this since Oct 2012. I cannot give it to them like this when they see the animation of a custom rom. I've never had an issue with any device till this. Driving me crazy :silly:
Try flash a different recovery is about all left.
Possible likewise flash just a kernel.

Man I tried everything I can think of. It may just be a hardware issue. I called for samsung support and they sent me a shipping label. Hope I can get the warranty with this custom rom animation. they will also see the twrp logo when trying to go to recovery. Makes me nervous about sending it in.
Have you tried installing a new copy of TWRP or CWM in Oden?
I have seen were people have issues starting after TWRP or CWM recovery, they say to make sure that you have un-check "disable Auto Reboot" in Oden.
there is a tutorial here that explains it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2102677

Most likely. Just fubared mine by interrupting a CWM flash thinking it was far enough along to matter. Use this:

Have you had any resolution?

Sorry for the delay, been busy. Try the instructions? Has nothing to do with recovery working. You need odin on your oc and kies ti install the drivers, if it wil go into download mode it can be flashed.
Agreed. Should still be a way to get into download mode, although you may have to use an alternate route. The most reliable method (without extra hardware) is to (once USB cable connected to PC):
Pull battery.
Reinsert battery.
Hold down both volume buttons and plug in the USB cable.
Voila!

If that fails, then may need a jig.
