I've been stuck on this all day. No idea what to do and it would be awesome if someone could help me out here.
Ok so i was running eagles blood ics and everything was working fine. I decided to check out some gingerbread roms so i backed up my eg ics rom. I wiped, cleared dalvik and battery, and formated system. Then i flashed the eg cm7 rom with harsh kernel. I've flashed roms and kernels many times before so i'm pretty sure that i didnt do anything wrong (atleast to my knowledge)
When i was done flashing everything i rebooted my phone and it was the white LG logo that came up, and then right after it was the blue LG logo and it sent me back to clockwork recovery. I attempted to wipe all and reflash again and it then sent me to recovery again. I tried restoring my backup and tried rebooting and it sent me to recovery again.
I dont know what to do at this point, anyone kind enough to let me know what may have gone wrong? it would be greatly appreciated.

You flashed a cm7 rom with harsh kernel? That's your problem. Harsh's kernels are ICS only. Try flashing just the rom, without the Harsh kernel

I've wiped everything multiple times and flashed just the eg rom on its own and it still sends me back to recovery. x.x
i'm using g2x nullifier to see if after doing that, then flashing any rom will make it work.
Nothing has worked at this point. Anyone have any other ideas? X.x

Was running 2.3.5 TPC ROM no problem. Then one day my phone started doing restarts, one or two times a day, and gets hot. Since then my wifi will not turn on. in settings it says error. I have restored nandroid backup, it worked for a day, and wifi quit working again. Then I installed SKY_ICS but no luck. Phone works perfectly, but wifi is not working.
Any idea is it hardware problem or software?

That's what I did. Just installed stock non rooted ATT ROM. Still no luck with wifi. Everything else functioning perfect. Need to send for warranty repair, but one little problem. I have download counter set to 2. I can reset it with counter reset tool through CWM, but how can I flash stock 3e recovery back without tripping counter back to one?

Flash the counter tool via ODIN, restore to factory which will remove the recovery (CWM), then your good to go for a replacement. But first try restoring to factory to see if it solve the wifi issue.
No, wifi does not work with stock ROM. Phone is fully restored to factory condition. Just counter set to 2 downloads.
How do I flash counter reset tool with Odin? Is it possible?

Problem solved with counter. Flashed stock ROM, then flashed CWM via ODIN. Then installed reset tool zip in CWM, and flashed stock recovery in ODIN.
Now counter on 0, phone goes for warranty repair.:thumbup:

I have a stock/rooted GS3 4.1.1
This a.m, I came out and checked the weather on my phone (just looked at the lockscreen), and then swiped it to get to my home screen. After a minute or so (I hadn't done anything else... no apps or anything) it rebooted on its own... and got stuck in a boot loop.
I popped the battery out, put it back in, and it booted up normally... except I no longer have wifi AND it is unchecking my "stay awake" box everytime I reboot.
I hadn't done anything to change the phone which has been working very well for the past few weeks... my wife's S3 has wifi with no problem. We have no problem with a computer on wifi.
I've reset the router. And now I'm out of ideas.
Will a reprovision work? Will it take me back to 4.1.1 or do I have to go back to 4.0.4 and rebuild it back to 4.1.1?
Any other ideas?

Have you tried reflashing the kernel or perhaps just backing up, wiping, and doing a clean install?

I haven't. As a relative newby, by "reflashing the kernel" are you referring to reflashing the modem? All I've got is the OTA stock ROM, that I've rooted.
Is there something I should add to that?

I would back up data and try a factory reset if your stock.

The think of the kernel as something that helps the hardware communicate with the software. Try flashing the radio. If that doesn't work, back up and then use one of the one-click tars for the stock image. If thaaat doesn't work you may have faulty phone.

Didn't work.
I ran the tar file... which has the self-loading odin... and it really didn't change anything. Still no wifi.
I ran stock.vzw_root66.tar and it's stuck in a boot loop.
Try a repovision but make sure you flash the ICS boot chain before you go back to the ICS image. Hope it works! Sorry you're having issues.

Thanks for all your effort... I actually fixed it by booting into recovery, doing a full wipe, and then rebooting... got me back into 4.0.4 which got my wireless back... and then I did the OTA's from Verizon so now I'm back at 4.1.1.
Up and running... it's all good... so again, thanks for helping me out.

Yesterday my Droid Charge running Tweaked 3.2 would not boot, it would get past the samsung logo and start the boot animation and then turn off. Booting into recovery, several things were not mounting, was not able to wipe Dalvik cahce, only regular cache.
When I try to ODIN back to stock with PIT, it always fails on movinand.bin
I used Samsung PSTLite as well with the same result, failing on movinand.bin
I have tried flashing to ED1 and EP4.
I can flash ROMS such as Tweaked that do not have movinand.bin, but the phone does not start up at all afterwards.
Download mode still works.
What can I do??

Have you tried a data wipe/factory reset via cwm?
Sent from my XT907 using xda app-developers app
Yes, I can flash and boot into CWM, but wiping factory data does not do anything, it also shows multiple "error mounting such and such" messages

Try to re-PIT only.
Sent from my SCH-I510 using xda premium
What am I supposed to do after re PIT'ing? (which I have done, sucessfully)
Then flash any ROM, probably a stock one. Make sure the MD5 is good. Tell us your exact process for Odin-ing something.
Sent from my SCH-I510 using xda premium
This is what I have been doing the whole time, same result.
I know my process for ODIN'ing to be correct, battery in, SD card out, PDA checked only.
Its something other than that, I've flashed return to stock many times in ODIN before...
Is there something else I can do besides simply ODIN'ing, as I've said, I've tried ODIN and PST Lite, both failing at movinand.bin
When flashing straight to for example Tweaked, it works fine, as there is no movinand.bin
At this point, it does not even show the samsung logo anymore, the screen just quickly flashes for a moment and then turns off. Download Mode is still working though. Recovery does not boot either.
Correction, CWM does boot, but none of the partitions are mountable.
Umm, The same exact thing happen to me couple of weeks ago, I got tons of error about mounting. I know I am not helping, but I gonna say my case anyway. I tried PIT (repartition) several times, didn't work! It was random! it worked one time, and I was able to flash the pit, but when I tried to flash the EP4D didn't work! I only was able to get to the home 2 times and got tons of force-closing warnings. I have insurance, so I got a replacement. I hope you are covered as well! Just wanted to share
A fail at movinand indicates a corruption at a hardware level. I've actually pulled mine out of death (had the same issue once upon a time) just by spamming PST over and over again but I seem to be the only one who had ever succeeded in that. You're probably going to have to end up getting a new device but hey, they won't be able to tell you rooted.

At this point it won't even matter. My phone broke like this and I got it switched in on the last day of warranty (luckily), and that was in August.
one last check:
have you tried using a different USB cord/USB port/different computer? I, along with many others, have experienced issues when flashing via odin with a bad cord/port (even though it had worked before). when I switched cords, it worked. but this mostly happens when the computer/ODIN fails to recognize the phone.
also, I did not remove the SD card in any of my flashings. I think once, I did remove the battery just to get the phone into download mode.
oh, and another option could be the kernel/partition/boot animation you were last on. I would recommend to try to make sure you are on RFS with stock FP5 before flashing anything.
but i suspect kvswim is probably right.
hope this helps.
ok, thanks for the help guys. I'm quite sure I dont even have a warranty on my phone, so that sucks. Might try to go into Verizon and see what happens anyway.
Do you think its worth sending it to MobileTechVideos for them to debrick, or is this outside of what they do, since it still can go into Download mode...
