Hi. I recently tried to do an adb nvrestore of my phone because i was experiencing some trouble with touchwiz crashing. I had previously done a backup after rooting my device but after the restore my phone tries to boot repeatedly and will not enter recovery mode. I can however access download mode. Any suggestions on how to fix this problem would be greatly appreciated.
Section 5, but why would you do the nvrestore for that? That's only if you lose your imei.

No buddy that's a backup for the losing imei issue we were having. Now did you happen to make s backup in clock work mod recovery, that's how you backup your system.
Either way we can get you back up again. You'll be fine, but for now on read a lot unless you're rich because you can brick this phone beyond repair.

Okay at least you have a titanium backup. Fastest way to get your phone back is follow that guide I linked. There are prerooted stock ROMs linked in it. Use one of them, follow the instructions exactly. When done download titanium and reinstall your apps. You'll be on stock rooted jb.

So I'm having issues with data dropping on my phone. I've decided its time to take it to the store. I'm rooted with a Rom on here. What do I need to do to check the counter or whatever it is and restore to stock so they don't know I rooted. Thanks

Odin back to stock.. Search the forum
I still have no clue how to check the flash counter
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Unless you flashed custom software with ODIN your counter should be 0. However, search for triangle away.

Are you sure the data drops are phone related and not ROM related?

I had the issue before I flashed this Rom. I was hoping the Rom would fix it lol.
And I first rooted with Odin not sure if that changes the counter or not besides that I've used recovery to flash

What rom are you running? I had really bad data drops on CM10. I'd try one of the touch wiz roms if you already haven't and possibly try a new modem. Modems are better for different people so there's not really one "best" modem for anyone.

Enter download mode. Power off hold vol down home and power, press vol up when its ask you to continue. Read the small text
Your rom may also have a reboot option to reboot into download mode

I have no idea what happened. I think its a problem with the kernel. I was able to sometimes get it to work but now its just gone completely dead. My phone wont even vibrate as it boots up. i tried doing a full wipe, dalvik, data, and cache and nothing it working. i even installed a new version of the kernel, 10/30's version of cm10, and nothing happens..
I have no idea what to do and i need help!

My backup pro, titanium backup etc. And you can backup your apps and data and SMS etc.
Then with you computer copy your internal card to the computer and then Odin.
Once back on a ROM you like, copy your stuff back to the internal card, restore with chosen backup program.
Won't feel any different.

since this is the i777 forum, my guess would be that your section is not here. if you don't know what section is yours, you probably shouldn't be rooting and modding your phone.
sorry to be so harsh.

Not harsh at all. Following directions properly is the main ingredient for successful flashing or using apps that require root. Since restoring with TiBu across different ROMs can definitely mess up your phone if not done correctly, one needs to know exactly what they are doing. Not being able to find the correct forum is a bad omen.
Moving to a more appropriate thread...
Guys didn't wanna start a new thread and clog it up so ill ask here. With the new update a titanium backup, isn't it supposed to I have update zips that restore with data? when I restore through recovery after complete wipes, the app's install but there is no data. I was hoping that this zip would restored exactly the same as it would in normal restore processes. Example: SwiftKey needs setup again, all accounts need to be signed back in, etc

If you want to unroot you'll need to learn about it. Read the stickies in the development section. They'll tell you how to unroot.
Google Odin v1.85 and download it. Then go to sammobile.com and down load the stock rom. When you got that far and after you've read the stickies will go from there.

I flashed CM 10.1 and got some errors about network connectivity, so decided to just go back to my backup of a rooted stock image. Afterwards i still see that i dont have network connectivity, and i am now roaming. I Saw some guides saying to flash back to a stock image. But can i do that with an OTA JB version already? and ive read about just "reprovision my phone", will it work even with the rooted stock image?
Thanks
and my IMEI is still in tact

Have you checked your subscription type on what ever ROM you are on. Also the best method is to Odin root66 and disk the repro vision code

I am on the stock OTA JB from verizon at the moment, and ive tried to do the root 66 and the one i downloaded from doesnt have the .tar.md5 file in it: its was from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1762204
and im not exactly sure by what you mean subscription type, and can i just do the reprovision code if im just OTA JB with just root?
Under mobile settings there is an option for CDMA subscription type it must be rui/sim, nit sure if it's on stock though.
Also the repro vision code doesn't work on jb that's why you must go back to root66

After you download the one you linked to me you have to extract the .tar. I assume you know how to do this, but just in case right click the zip and extract all

You can lose that no matter what you flash. That's why all ROMs say to back it up before flashing.
