Need help Weird Vibrant

New to Droid os. I need help reformating to factory. I recently updated my vibrant to 2.2, with the 2.3 interface i believe? Anyways after the update my phone was working fine. Then things went down hill when i tried to over clock my phone. As it was going into recovery mode I accidently hit reboot. then i tried deleting data, and cache. But when i tried to reinstall things from recovery mode. It told me nothing could be found. So then I tried flashing factory rom with Orin, but it said unable to flash.
Now my phone just turns on all the way to the galaxyS logo and then shuts off. Please any help would be great. I already tried looking through the forums but nothing seems to work.
PLEASE HELP, with a cherry on top
why dont you send for warranty

Help me please!!!!!

Ive been running a GTN7000 on rooted ICS for some time without any errors however today I decided to remove Chainfire 3D, after the compulsory reboot my phone shows no display after the initial logo. The normal jingles and vibrations take place and the buttons are lit but there is no screen output.
Does anyone know how to fix this without wiping my phone? thanks
It seems like you have a soft brick. Try a reset via Samsung Kies or look for a soft brick undo guide or something.
I am sorry I cannot help any further as I do not own a note myself and therefore have minimal experience with the device.
Would like to hope you can fix it.
Hit thanks if I helped.
i think you should try to soft reset it. you can use any reset method you already know....
sorry if i couldnt help you any further too. but as for me, when i face some error like that, i've always reset my phone (coz i already backup my data with titanium backup)
Hi guys, sorry for the delay.
I've finally managed to fix it.
After fighting through a whole heap of errors and reflashing the device at least 10 times I now have my phone back to a fully working rooted ICS state. I did however loose all my data.

[Q] PLESE HELP REMOVE CWM! on hisense tablet

Okay, I have CWM on this HISENSE Sero 7 lite tablet. My nephew knew nothing of what he was doing and attempted putting it on here hoping it would bring it back to factory settings, which he was trying to put the tablet to where it would actually boot up. This tablet was only used for TWO days before it started showing the android guy with a red exclamation point on it. Now, the clockworkmod is on it, I want it removed (because I dont know a thing about it) so the factory reset can be done. The screen was reachable, but due to the install nothing can be done with it. I read that after the clockwork mod was installed there were seperate steps that had to be made to it for it to be functional. As far as I know it was only installed. I would REALLY appreciate some help on getting this tablet back in working order. It can't hook up to my computer, everything is having to be done from external sd card. I also keep getting some error about sd-ext is not found. Any help would be appreciated.

URGENT HELP NEEDED -- "com.android.systemui has stopped" bootloop -- Verizon LG G3

URGENT HELP NEEDED -- "com.android.systemui has stopped" bootloop -- Verizon LG G3
I apologize in advance if this is posted in the wrong section, but I need some urgent help with my phone. I posted in this section hoping to get some quick responses.
I have a LG G3 with rooted stock 4.4.2 rom running xposed.
So I pulled my phone out of my pocket today only to see the Verizon boot logo in effect. I was thinking "that's weird, guess my phone needed to reboot? Strange." But the only problem is it never stopped. It will only boot up to the lock screen and occasionally it will display an error message telling me the systemui has stopped. Then about 10 seconds later, it reboots itself. It continues this process until I pull the battery.
I've tried booting into safe mode, no luck. It doesn't even actually boot into safe mode (it doesn't say safe mode in the bottom left corner.) Then it just reboots again,
I tried wiping the cache, no luck.
I don't want to just do a factory reset because that hasn't seemed to help anyone else with this issue as far as I've seen. I have not found any helpful information on how to fix this problem.
And no, I haven't changed anything lately that could have messed it up. A couple days ago I cut off some wakeup paths for Google Play Services via Greenify, but I don't think that's the cause of the problem.
My question is, what do I do? I feel lost on this subject. Normally I've always been able to diagnose problems on my own, but not in this situation.
I have all my apps and data backed up to Titanium Backup on my SD card if that's of any relevance.
Any suggestions?

How would I go about doing that with a device that won't boot up?
I'm not familiar with flashing ROMS and things like that.
Ideally, I'd like to be able to fix it and keep the phone the way it was. I understand that may not be possible though
