I went to my backup rom, unrooted, removed all apps...and duuuh realize that my backup was of eagle bloods rom, and it read eagle blood in the firmware (in the about menu) and not stock LOL
so I got turned down on the return (figured Id wait for the sensation), anyway does anyone have a stock rom, untouched somewhere? and also can I return the phone to any tmobile, or does it have to be to the store I bought it from...my local store is small, so I bet if I try and go back now they will just remember me lol
thanks

If you look at the development section you will find the rooted stock version. You can flash that and then unroot using superoneclick.

yeah I tried that rom, I need one that is untouched no apps installed, none deleted
the guys at my store went through it like crazy, in my attempt to return it lol
might keep it though, as I just installed the newest cm7 kang build and it basically cleaned up all the issues I was having on my device
It's very easy to return to stock.
Unroot using super one click root
Flash the stock recovery using NVFlash
Hold down the vol - / power and it'll restore.
thats EXACTLY what I did,
but when the guy at the store pulled up the "about" settings, it read the "eagle" rom in the firmware for some reason
and all the stock apps were all gone too, only the ones that were included in the eagle rom that I had flashed, and subsequently wiped a few days ago remained
I know its my bad that I didnt nandroid the stock rom when I opened up the phone for the first time
just was hopping someone had a stock backup WITHOUT titanium or busybody included
Hmm that's strange,
That's what I've been doing with CM7 and it works just fine.
I guess you could try these steps
1. Download stock nandroid backup Stock nandroid
2. Restore with clockworkmod recovery, boot up and then shut down.
3. Flash stock recovery.
4. Press vol - / power to do a factory restore.
5. Boot up and skip the Google login and then unroot.
6. Shutdown and Pres vol - / power to do a factory restore again.
If you read the g2x forum you'll see they have a thread with the tmo bloatware apks

i took mine in yesterday with phone jack in with CM7 nightly on mine to the tmobile i bough it at and they didnt even bother to power it on to look at it. i think it all depends on who's helping you and whether you get lucky or not. i made the guy throw in a free screen protector since mine was on the phone i returned. he let me take the battery from the old phone but he never took the one out of the box so now i have a new battery laying around. i guess you just have to get lucky.

Wrong! Nandroid the stock rooted rom. Flash stock recovery. Unroot. Remove rooted apps. Done. Factory reset to be sure.

yeah the dude who helped was being a serious tard, lol
he acted like he had NEVER heard of any issues, it was the "best " phone he had ever used, blah blah blah lol, all the tech support forums are just "rumors" not real users .....
I felt like I was at a used car dealership lol
I almost cancelled my contract right then and there, but I figured it was my bad for not checking the firmware, and not backing up my own rom from jump
does anyone know if I can return it to another store, by chance? or do I have to go to the same store....all the guys know me, since its a small local store

Its all laid out a couple different ways in the development forums. You just have to do a little research and you will find all the instructions you will need.
So I'm a noob to all this rooting biz, but had done tons of jailbreaks so thought this would be similar. It's not!
I rooted my phone (Samsung Infuse) and was going to flash MIUI on it. It wouldn't work, so I gave up and went to the 'Download Roms' or whatever section in Clockworkmod and thought all of those would work for my phone.. So I tried downloaded Darky rom, and once it downloaded and flashed, the phone is now stuck on
'Galaxy S'
GT-19000
Samsung
When I take the battery out and go to do a reboot or hard reset, it shows the reg samsung logo for a second then glitches to that galaxy s **** and it doesn't work. I can't even get it into recovery mode!
I have a Mac and I don't know what to do. Please help me asap. I just got this phone 3 days ago. And if I can't fix this myself, will my insurance/30-day return still be valid or will this **** up my warrantee?
use this.

I believe that after it has done its thing, the phone should have rebooted into recovery mode and showing an option to delete all user data or factory reset. If not, try manually going into recovery mode:
1. Turn off phone.
2. Hold down both up and down volume keys and the power key.
3. Let go of the POWER key when you see the samsung logo pop up. (keep holding the volume keys until it boots into recovery)
4. Now go down to where it says delete all user data or maybe it says factory reset. Something along those lines. Let it do its thing and then
5. Reboot system.
After doing so, you will lose root and all of data. Re-root, add the custom recovery. And READ READ READ. The only roms you can flash from recovery mode is gtg's roms. So check out all roms in the development section here. Read the differences and flash away
I'm currently on miui and I'm loving it because it's very customizable. But battery life sucks on it.

I restarted my phone several times, still the same problem. So i took it to T-Mobile, and i told the guy there what happend. He told me to factory reset my phone, and i did infront of him, everything worked fine and all, calls and texts back to normal, but then i looked through my phone, no Market, or play store. I askedhim wahts wrong and he said maybe its a glitch. He told me to restart it, i did, still not there, we factory reset again and nothing. So defeated i left and went home. I thought i could just reflash the rom, but since i dont have any apps and i dont have rom manager, it just ffreezes on me. So i am stuck with my phone without apps. What can i do to get play store on my phone again. been like this for 5 days so far. IT SUCKS!

Sounds like maybe you are pushing the wrong button to activate the command. Try pushing the trackpad when you have the item selected.
Did you reflash the gapps? I'm not sure if that ROM has them, but that could be your problem.

You can flash from recovery without using Rom Manager. Just dl the file and use the choose zip option when installing. You'll be fine.

to get into recovery turn off the phone take out the battery for 5 seconds, put the battery back in and hold vol down while holding the power button. It will take you to the hboot menu. Once there press vol down until recovery is highlighted and Press the power button and it will take you to recovery.

Somebody (and I'm speaking more in general terms) should create a good noob guide for Android in general. But then there's a need for specific guides for the major manufacturers too. And of course, I'd really appreciate any guide including a good glossary.
From my experience, XDA and other developer forums are very steeped in detailed technical jargon with little explanation for the casual or new user. And I know that the focus is on development and not hand holding the noobs. But I'll counter with the fact that they do come here, looking for help. And it's infinitely harder to learn when there isn't a good resource.
Having said all that, I do appreciate Blue6IX's [REF] doubleshot Developers Reference.

You are right, I didn't understand what you were trying to communicate.
I was under the impression that when you were writing about ROM Manager that you meant ROM Manager and not CWM. ROM Manager is an application that communicates with CWM and directs it to do what the user directs, CWM is a developed recovery. They are not the same thing. Clarity is helpful if you are asking for assistance.
Here is a thread regarding getting back to stock but I don't know if it will help you.

I have a MT4GS from a friend at home and the keys don't work anymore. Strangely enough they do work but only in bootloader; not in recovery or ROM. I did a restore with the PG59IMG.zip, but problem is still there.

This very well may not work considering your description of the issue and the things you've tried but Blue6IX extracted the stock keyboard layout and created a flashable .zip file to take a person back to stock after trying one of his custom ones. If you'd like to give it a try, it's located HERE as the last entry to the first group. Hope it works for you.

Hi! By saying hardware keys does that include your hardware qwerty keyboard? Also you said keys work in bootloader but on bootloader mode only volume keys & power button are used so is volume keys & power button working while on ROM?
If what your talking is the hardware keys below the touch screen(home, menu, back, sensor & genius) then most probably you got a broken ribbon/flex cable send it for repairs if that's the case cause it needs to be replaced.
In ROM and recovery nothing works for as far as I can see. No qwerty, power, volume and frontkeys. Only in bootloader it responds to power and volume Keys.
That's the strange part, they do work but maybe it's driver/software related?

Ok as you said on your first post you already flashed a complete stock ROM right? So this can't be a software problem since flashing PG59IMG.zip basically replaces everything in the phone.
Try booting the phone without the sdcard or try with another battery.
Probably there's something on your sd card that's causing the phone to be unstable or your battery can't provide enough power to run the keyboard.
It's not the sd-card since I used a brand new, formatted one. That's also needed if you do a PG59IMG.zip restore. Only thing on the sd is that file, no other files/folders. Could be battery, but it'll take some work. Thx for the help.

I have 3 doubleshots, one is completely 100% hardware bricked. It started just like your phone is acting up. Only in the bootloader vol +/- and power worked.

My phone did the EXACT same thing!!!!!!! Just about a month ago, it was very annoying. I tinkered and tinkered and nothing. so i reverted to stock with the PG591IMG and s-on and called tMo for an exchange. They sent me a replacement in 3 days (albeit the replacement is giving me a heck of a time getting camera and headphones to work) but i think thats your best bet. Is yours still under warranty?
Same issue
Has anyone found out what causes this problem? My girl really misses this phone. :laugh: lol. i got cm9 and twrp installed on hers. Like the orignal poster - the Power, Vol Up, and Vol down only work in the bootloader. when CM9 boots up non of the hard keys work.
Well I was doing a back up and flashed a new ROM, Blinky's revenge, and when I went to reboot nothing. My battery was at 94%.
When I got to plug in the charger I do not even get the battery icon. I cannot reboot into CWM I get nothing.
Do I now own a nice paper weight?
It is still under the one year warrenty. Will they know what happened if I send it in and tell them it is not working period?

Are you sure you got the right rom for the i727, where did you get it from. If it doesn't turn on or boot up no one can tell that you tried to flash a rom. It sure sounds like you've bricked it. Any luck getting odin to recognize it. If it does, flash the stock rom.

here's how you check for a heart beat on the phone plug it into the PC and see if you get a Qhusb DL if you do enjoy the paper weight... and maybe an exchange might but the carrier can only give you an answer
Gosh dang it mother F$*%er thats where I messed up.
I can not get into download mode nor get odin to reconize it. It is officially a paper weight. I put in for an exchange with AT&T should be here tomorrow.
I flashed the wrong ROM. I flashed for the I777 not the i727. I hit the wrong button when I was installing I meant to go back but hit the power button by error and that is what did it.
Thank you everyone for your help. It is the first time I ever bricked a phone and I have rooted about 9 different phones and this was completely my error.
Now here is a question. Will they be able to tell it was rooted and I bricked it?
Probably not. From experience, I don't think you need to worry.

Poo happens. Luckily, you're within a year, so it's just a couple weeks without a Skyrocket (if it won't turn on, Sammy can't tell that it was rooted and bricked on a flash). If you were outside of 12 months, well, that would've been a pretty costly lesson. I still double-check the file name before flashing anything on any of my phones, including my Cappy, just to make absolutely certain I'm not about to flash something for a different phone by mistake.

Poo happens. Luckily, you're within a year, so it's just a couple weeks without a Skyrocket (if it won't turn on, Sammy can't tell that it was rooted and bricked on a flash).

Yeah I was within a year and just got my new phone yesterday and wiped all the rom and kernals off my sd card and will just take the time to redo everyting which is kind of fun for me. I get to do most of this stuff at work on my work pc.
Thank you everyone
Your the bomb

That is what I love about this community, you guys and gals are there for us when we need it and even when we do not.
I got it rooted and CWM on there now time to wipe and re do my roms. Just glad I got a backup of my previous setup before the bricking.
