[Q] [i9020T] Stuck at 'Google' & unlocked padlock screen after boot

My Nexus S i9020T won't boot past the Google splash screen* (with an unlocked padlock at the bottom) after I unlocked to boot loader and tried to root it. I'm using a Mac but I can boot into Win7 if need be.
How do I diagnose this and obviously how can I recover the os? Thanks in advance!
Facts:
-Running 2.3.4 before unlock/root attempt
-Booted fine after the unlock but the root screwed something up
-There were errors in terminal during the process (ERROR: could not get pipe properties)

Sorry if out smarting the spam bot is breaking any rules.

I'm guessing you flashed a boot.img to try and root it?
That's what screwed up.
Take battery out, put it back in, hold volume up and power at the same time to get to Bootloader.
Flash the latest cwm recovery, boot to recovery. mount the internal usb,

put it in the root of the internal sd.
boot back up to bootloader and start it, it will auto wipe/restore back to stock 2.3.4

Thanks that did it.
EDIT: I was using this guide and got to step 17, then everything went bad. As I understand it, I am unlocked but not rooted at this point, correct? If so what's the easiest way of rooting from here? (Also, does root=super user?)

Yes flashing the superuser zip = root.
What version of CWM recovery did you install?

3.0.0.5, tho its not on my device anymore since I refreshed it.

Use this newer version from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1039584
3.0.0.5 has issues. Doesn't flash correctly many times. 3.0.2.4 works much better

Alright I've installed the new version and flashed "su-2.3.6.1-ef-signed.zip". How do I know if I'm rooted?

Boot up ur phone and you should have an su app.
Download titanium backup ans check if you have problems.you can also install busybox while using it.

Make sure you are not plugged into your pc when you boot to recovery! - if that doesn't solve it ..
Does the phone boot to the existing Rom, do you have Rom manager installed? - if so update the recovery from Rom Manager. I found that after rooting the One S using the toolkit I could not get in to recovery, the update from Rom Manager sorted it!
All the best :good:

Had same issue with the tool kit, the cwm didnt stick. The Touch work one did stick and I was able to get into recovery. However I downloaded the app ROM MANAGER and flashed the recovery from there. Since then I've had no issues booting into reocvery or bootloader. Just download rom manager and go about it that way!

Which recoveries have you tried, and what version of phone do you have (S3 or S4). These must match.
Make sure you bootloader unlocked OK, check in bootloader screen, should say Unlocked.
The problem youre describing sound like when you try to boot after successfully flashing a ROM but forgot to or the kernel failed to flash with it. Only happens when ROM and kernel are mismatched enough that it wont boot, fex flashing CM9 and still on HTC original kernel. Try flashing the kernel from the ROM zip file with
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
You can also try booting a recovery without installing it,
Code:
fastboot boot nameofrecoveryfile.img

If you have working ADB and fastboot working (there is a sticky by user fibsib that explains this) you can make sure your phone isnt really just trying to boot the OS and failing rather than trying to enter recovery with the command
Code:
adb reboot recovery
But anyways figure out which version you have before doing anything more, flash the wrong stuff and you could break stuff. There are good info here as to how to see if you have the Ville=Z520e=S4 processor model or the Ville C2/Z560e/S3 processor model.
Then download a recovery for your phone model and install it with this command from your computer
Code:
fastboot flash recovery nameofrecoveryyoudownloaded.img
Should work.

have you actually flashed a recovery yet?
which one and how did you do it?

Make sure you have your phone updated to the latest software version before you root. Download system update OTA and click update.
Otherwise you will have issues.
I am rooted T-Mobile phone with original software 1.54 and still can not do recovery or update, it is probably me but it is difficult.
If you are in the US, make sure you use the US version in the development section after you upgrade your phone. Update then try to root it might be easier.

[Q] Corrupt Recovery

Hi Guys
Originally unlocked and rooted my nexus 5. Then the OTA update seemed to remove the root. I havent really looked into re-rooting but i need to wipe the device and I thought I may as well do it now. Having issue though
- Device is still unlocked when I go into the bootloader I see its unlocked
- Try to flash a custom recovery and when I follow the steps it goes to red exclamation (Im assuming meaning corrupt custom recovery, probably the old CWM before the OTA)
- Read through forums and they say I need to remove reboot-from-recovery.p file from the /system
- however I cant remove it without root and I cant get root without removing it
Whats the options here?
Thanks

the exclamation point is the stock recovery. once you take in an ota, it removes both root and your custom recovery. to get your custom recovery back so that you can flash a bootloader(and the supersu root binaries). you can flash a custom recovery while youre in your bootloader via fastboot on your desktop.

Thats what I was trying to explain. I tried flashing custom recovery as per instructions but nothing happens. From what I am reading this is because of the reboot-from-recovery.p file which needs to be deleted BUT I cannot do this without root!

na, you dont need to delete that to flash a custom recovery(i never have, in my 6 years with android, and all my devices). is fastboot seeing your device? kkdo you see fastboot going through the process of flashing a recovery? if you are typing it right, and fastboot sees your device, you would have flashed a custom recovery. when you connect to fastboot, type.. fastboot devices. if it sees your device, its id number will be shown.

adb version and fastboot devices is different. adb is not fastboot and you can not use adb as fastboot. fastboot is fastboot.

Can somebody please help me with something?

I have my M8 with S-OFF (Paid for Sunshine) and it is temporarily rooted with KingRoot. I'm just confused on what I need to do next to get fully rooted so I can start flashing some ROMS! I tried to install TWRP with the app but it doesn't seem to work and it just boots into the standard recovery mode and NOT TWRP.
So, where do I go after having S-OFF and temp root?
I would greatly appreciate anybodies help here, I've rooted several devices before but nothing has been harder or more confusing then rooting the m8 on 5.0.1!
Thanks in advance!

I'm trying to run the WinDroid program to flash twrp, it reboots the phone into fastboot but then WinDroid just says rebooting device and doesn't seem to get passed that. Should I just wait?

This is where I'm not finding any good directions for these steps, as far as how to do the command prompts.

OK finally got TWRP installed, can I flash SU from the SU app?

You flash SuperSU from within twrp.
Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

MTN, I know this can be frustrating for a newbie. There are plenty of walkthroughs, and I'm sure everyone else will tell you to google, but for the sake of being concise, here's the scoop:
1. Make sure you have ADB installed.
2. Go to your ADB prompt and make sure your device is showing up (need the HTC drivers installed) by doing:
adb devices
3. Reboot into fastboot:
adb reboot bootloader
4. Flash TWRP:
fastboot flash recovery twrp####.zip
5. Once you've got TWRP installed, you reboot INTO TWRP (full recovery) and let it patch your system because if you don't it will be overwritten. As follows:
- Reboot with VolDwn held.
- From bootloader, pick "recovery".
- Wait for TWRP to come up.
6. Once TWRP is in, drop supersu package ZIP (get the latest one, careful here!) into a directory, boot into TWRP, and install it.
Boom, your device is completely rooted.
But I think that the thing that you need to understand is that "rooted" only applies to the current ROM. Rooting isn't a magic thing - it simply means that you have root privilege on the current OS. It is separate from firmware, bootloader, etc. which all also have to be flashed/loaded/updated depending on what you are doing. There probably ought to be a newbie page somewhere that explains to people what each thing is. The ROM is essentially the same as whatever version of windows/linux/etc. you have on your home computer. It has nothing to do with the hardware, the firmware, or the bootloader.
On my phone, I followed the above procedure, but then proceeded to download and install a clean ROM that was pre-rooted. Then later I put back the stock Verizon ROM and had to reapply root. I then later removed root to return the phone to verizon for service. But I didn't uninstall Root, I simply flashed on a non-rooted ROM.
Does that make sense?

[Resolved] Installed TWRP on phone with a locked bootloader - now stuck in boot loop

I am new to rooting, and decided to root my Galaxy Note II SGH-i317m a few days ago. I used a method with no adb access...i think. Here's the reference thread, just in case I'm wrong: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1980644
I got a bit overenthusiastic, and got TWRP while forgetting to unlock my bootloader first. Now, my phone will only boot into TWRP. All 4 reboot options go back to TWRP. What is the best way to get my phone back to working? I understand that I may have to lose my data. It doesn't matter: my top priority is getting my phone to work again.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: I'm sorry if this is in the wrong place. I'm new here.

Thanks for the quick reply. I just tried that, and no change. Just to clarify, the only thing I can boot into at the moment is recovery mode.
I think what I need to do is flash the stock recovery back onto my phone. Is this a possible solution? If so, how should I go about doing it? I currently cannot access download mode.

i think u should install your current rom again if u insall stock recovery you may not able to do this with stock recovery even cant get twrp back

Well, the thing is, my problem isn't with the ROM at all. It's that TWRP does not work with a locked bootloader. So the way I see it, either I need to replace TWRP with something that works with a locked bootloader, or unlock the bootloader. In your opinion, how would replacing the ROM help with my problem?

It's done. It's worth noting that my root method, linked in the OP, doesn't give adb access. I'm not sure if this changes anything.
Also, I discovered that by removing and replacing the battery, my phone can power off. From here I can access download mode. Something that might be useful, especially if the solution involves odin.

tried system restore with twrp?
try it first and if ur not sure that it will work just make backup of boot , efs , system and data(if necessary) via twrp to sd card copy the backup to pc via card reader or something and extract the system backup there should be a file named build.prop in system folder edit it and do it like this :
under #additional build properties
ro.adb.secure=0
ro.secure=0
ro.allow.mock.location=1
ro.debuggable=1
persist.sys.root_access=1
find the above lines and edit the parameters as i have shown to you use notepad++ to edit the file save it the last line will give ya root access by default and second last will make it debuggable just save it repack and flash with twrp cheers
hit thanks

Alright. Since I can't find another thread like this one, I will assume that I am one of the first to have this problem. Here is what I did.
I used samsung-firmware.org to find the latest firmware for my phone, which includes both ROM and recovery. Other brands probably also have a website like this.
I used Odin to flash the firmware onto my phone - this wiped my data, but removed TWRP, which is an acceptable solution to me. I might also have wiped my data while playing around with TWRP trying to fix my phone - I'm not sure.
Thanks to both EMONESSboy and [email protected] for their help. I ended up going with something similar to EMONESSboy's solution, since the commands seemed a little risky. Thanks anyways, your help is much appreciated!

If your situation is the same as mine was, I would recommend the same solution. Just to clarify - you rooted your phone? And then you installed a custom recovery, which is now the only thing you can access?
If so, you should install your stock ROM the same way you installed the rooted ROM. I'm not sure how you would go about doing that, or even if you can access that mode, since your model is not very common.

Actually, what happend was that i tried to root my phone through Kingaroot. It shows some error at 90%. After few seconds my phone gets rebooted and snce then, it is showing Mfr LOGO only.
I have tried Factory reset, wipe cache partition etc.
I had lollipop earlier on my phone.
