Hello,
I was trying to install a stock android on my samsung galaxy s3 clone, with MTK6575 as it had a chinese/fake 4.04.
Long story short, I was following this bm smartphonereview guide to with Smart Phone Flash tool and used one of the boot img from colonel zap's blog, and my phone is bricked.
I can get into download mode but not more than that. The Smart Phone Flash Tool recognizes my phone, and I've been trying to flash different boot.img and different preloaders and recovery files but it hasn't helped.
I'd appreciate any tips as I would like to not have a $200 paperweight.
edit: I flashed it with this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32468798
edit 3: I found this http://www.movilesdualsim.com/foro/threads/14127-(Ayuda-ROOT)-GT-I9300-android-(clone)/page5 the gguy posted his stock roms. However now the SP flash tool says, "cannot pass bootrom start command" and exits.
Thanks!
Anyone?

i just bought Nexus S and follow online instruction to unlock the bootloader and root the device. So far evrything going so well until i do " flash rootboot.img" (download from nexushack.com) and my phone is stucking at google logo forever.
Then i try to "flash clockworkmod recovery " is successful but my phone still be bricked. Have try to return to stock GJH-78 BUT STILL NOT WORK.
Can anyone help me to bring back to live my phone, thank you.
My phone is G-i9020.
i found that ODIN was the best way to get my phone back from being bricked.
The rootboot at nexushacks also did that to my phone so dont use it.

I think the problem is that you flashed a boot image that is not compatible with your phone. First, determine if you have the I9020- A, T, or F.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1031760 You need to find a post with the stock files for your model, and extract the boot.img. Then
fastboot flash boot boot.img
(If anyone else has the exact same model as him, could you do a nandroid backup and post your boot.img?)
You may need to flash your phone via adb. That's if you can't get into clockwork, there are many threads on how to do this.

Ok I will try to find out the boot.img and reflash again and let y guy know how it work. Thx all for helping.
Hi, same problem here , i have the i9020A version in white.
Any idea where I can find the correct boot.img?
Ok man I found my boot.img so I will flash mine tonight if it work I will post this for you. Let see hah. We are on the same boat, two noobs is always better than one.
Great, I will try to find one on my own and if it works I´ll let you know.
Thanks.

I found one . In this thread [ROM] Stock - 2.3.4 - GRJ22 - Deodexed w/radio for NS/NS4G
I downloaded the image NSGSM-GRJ22-deodexed-KD1-rooted.zip (108.53 MB) md5sum: 970e9c7252f12a38ecaa6ff77ef6d010
Under: NS GSM - (I9020T, I9020A, I9023)...Rooted/Busybox/insecure boot.img/init.d Script support (Since my phone is I9020A 2.3.4 just rooted, I actually unlocked it, but then the rootboot screw me)
Then extract the boot.img and using fastboot type:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Now I can access my just rooted Phone. Hope this help you
hi man go to here and you will find http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1065720&highlight=stock+at+google+pagethe solution. i did this it work for me.
I apologize in advance, since I know people have asked questions similar to this already. But I am desperate for help, as I have been trying to fix my phone for 3 days now, and have not gotten anywhere!!! so here is my story/problem.
I was trying to do an update on my samsung showcase (cspire) using kies, and during the download it was interrupted somehow. The phone was bricked. (i think) so then I found something called one-click unbrick. after that i'm able to put the phone in download or recovery mode.
So i have been trying to get factory rom back on my phone. I downloaded odin3 v1.70 and v1.82 (i have tried both of these) and i have downloaded atlas 2.2 for pit and I have tried both EH09_modem_CS.TAR.MD5 and EI20.tar.md5\EI20.tar.md5. Everytime I do this odin freezes on factoryyfs.rfs.... I have tried all the tricks I can find, different usb port, diff cable, running as admin, i even download sandboxie ( someone suggested that)... I dont know if i am doing something wrong, or if it is odin... Also, i'm not rly sure about the software i'm using... I have very little experience with this kind of stuff, but i am really determined to fix this! please forgive my ignorance! TIA!!
Try flashing a custom rom and boot.img first then Odin back to stock

I've been trying to find one, you don't happen to have a link to where I can find one do you?? Also can i do this using odin, the same way I have been trying to get the stock on there?? Thanks for you help!!
I found steps to root my gt-p3113 via heimdall as I can't run odin in OS X. Followed instructions to the t but turns out the files used were from april of this year and I think possibly for a previous kernel version. When the tab restarted it just shows the galaxy tab 2 splash screen but nothing else. Clockwork didn't install. I can get into download mode and it shows custom instead of stock. :crying:
How can I fix this? I just need to get back to stock 4.0.4 so I can start back at step one and then get on a win machine and try the odin steps to root. If someone can please direct me it would save me worry and frustration...

Well this has only been explained about a 100 times here. So a little searching would have been a good idea.
Just download the 4.0.4 firmware from http://www.sammobile.com for your model and country and flash it via ODIN.That's it
find a WINDOWS computer and follow this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2007876&highlight=restore
I'm sorry but I searched for hours. I found the odin restore but I don't have windows... I was looking for a way to restore from my mac via heimdall. But if odin is the only way then I'll have to find a windows machine.

I've not seen any heimdall method here, so you will need to find a windows computer, in general windows 7 is where you want to be when flashing android related stuff, its the OS everything is built to work with.
Hello everybody.
I have a problem rooting a N9776 bought from DealExtreme, this is the 4.1.1 version with the 3.4 kernel.
The problem is that it is impossible to root, at least for me. I tried every method on this forum (and others) in order to get it root, unsuccesfully.
This is a list of the methods i tried (as i remember).
- Bin4ry exploit (the first that i tried)[http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460]= I click on restore, the phone reboot, nothing happend (no root, no SU.apk)
- MT6577 CWMR Root (http://www.mediafire.com/view/?8mxvy0ey5yfdu59)=
First problem: I cannot generate the recovery.img, i used cygwin's command to do it, but the image does not appears
Second problem: I managed to get all the links in the guide, but i don't know if there are the versions needed in order to get this done, due to missing links in the guide itself.
Third problem: cygwin says: "perl v5.14.0 required, v5.10 used", and i don't know how to upgrade perl .. or what the hell perl.
-SP Flash (tool http://colonelzap.blogspot.co.uk/search?q=n9770): I loaded the scatter file, pressed the "download" button, take of my N9776 battery, USB pluged in, put the battery back on, the process starts for like 2 seconds, and boom, error (BROM ERROR: S_FT_NEED_DOWNLOAD_ALL_FAIL (4050)).
Im getting a little bit to frustrated, and just to be clear, i will say two things:
1- I'm a complete and absolute noob on all this, i never rooted a phone before (only a tablet, wich was easy).
2- My english isn't perfect (as you can notice), so, sorry for that.
Can somebody help me with this?

There's a couple of lines you need to remove from the XML file. Read the first post carefully.
Sounds like you put your phone in fastboot mode correctly, so you are almost there.
thanks so much that fixed it. I love the help from this site.
