i used TWRP to restore a backup but it wiped system and then failed. not noticing this i rebooted and the phone shuts off when i boot it. i tried holding power + vol up + home to get into recovery and install another zip but it hangs on the "Samsung Galaxy SIII" splash screen. if i use odin and it relocks my bootloader, will it format my internal memory? i had issues with this before and i dont want to go through losing all my data again. if anyone has any alternatives they will be much appreciated
You could Odin flash a no wipe rooted rom and see how it takes then.
Did you try doing a full wipe (factory reset/format system) and then reflashing a ROM?

One more thing, your bootloader will be locked when you flash this. Just unlock it using EZ Unlock 1.2 and you're good to go if you want to flash roms and such.

because you need to wipe(factory reset) when flashing different roms. when you upgrade the same rom, you dont have to wipe.
i have and its still not working do i need to wipe cahce to

wiping data(factory reset) should take care of that. wipe, flash rom, flash gapps(if needed), and reboot. thats all.
done all that still gets stuck at the loading screen

I'm not sure why, but sometimes when I flash a recovery and reboot into recovery from ROM Manager, I get the same thing. But if I flash, then power off and boot into recovery using volume+powerUp, it works fine.
I was flashing different roms onto my I5801 to find which one would work best for me, but now my phone now can't boot. It boots directly into recovery every time. I've tried re-flashing the original roms but it doesn't seem to fix it. Any ideas on how i could get it to boot normally again? Thank you.

Do you press REBOOT SYSTEM NOW
Hey.... don't forget to thank me!!!
You have to flash zerofill.tar first and tgen flash another rom
(You can look in my older posts the steps of a clean zero fill flash)

No luck after flashing zerofill then the stock rom with odin its still boots straight to recovery.

Are you on HBOOT 1.14? Did you flash the boot.img in fastboot?
Do you have a backup? You can get back to recovery by holding volume down and pushing the power button for ~15 seconds. When the capacitive buttons stop flashing, release the power button but keep holding volume down. That should get you to the bootloader screen. You can choose recovery or fastboot there.

You shouldnt have to seperate the boot.img in viper 2.4.0. It'll do it for you. Make sure you selected the correct option.
Wipe everything in twrp and flash again

Where did you perform the factory reset? All resetting needs to be done inside twrp.
If that is all truly gone, you need to try and mount the phone as storage when you plug into your pc. From there, reload the Rom you wanted. Go back into twrp and wipe all cache. Then do a system wipe. Finally do a factory reset INSIDE twrp.
Now go to Install in twrp.
Select your rom zip.
Swipe to flash.
Follow Aroma Installer and select your preferences.
Be patient and let it do the install as it will take a little while.
Let it finish and follow steps to reboot.
Once rebooted you need to again be patient as the first boot will take a while.
Enjoy!!

hey guys,
I flashed the VRALEC bootchain in Odin and i also flashed CWM as well. when i downloaded the SuperSU_bootloader.zip file to my phone i go in to try to flash it in CWM. every time it tells me that the E signature failed and installation aborted. i haved read online about toggling the signature in CWM but i cant locate it when i boot into CWM. can anyone help me?
thanks,
Does your recovery actually say ClockWorkMod? Are you choosing "install from sdcard"?

it says android system recovery and i choose apply update from external storage.
the other choices are
reboot system
apply update from adb
wipe data
wipe cache
apply update from cache
??
Install unknown apps checked in security?

You're still on the stock recovery. Uncheck auto-reboot then flash the CWM tar again. Once it says Pass/Reset, unplug, pull the battery, then try booting into recovery again. It should look different now.

Did this work ? the "Pass/Reset" Took awhile to show in my experience.

No problem. No, flashing the bootchain has absolutely no impact on features within the rom. Honestly, idk how to reintroduce those into your system properly. Maybe there's a mod in the theme & apps section?
Enjoy the rooting world!

Most TW roms have the bubbles re-enabled. Hack must be rom specific tho as it mods several rom specific system files. There is an old hack that brings them back but is no longer recommended as it jacks with carrier network side.
I just rooted my Verizon Galaxy SIII (MF1) via Casual and flashed CM 10.1.2. Only problem is I can't reinstall any of my apps. I've tried pushing apps from my PC to my phone. Downloading while online from the phone itself. I used titanium backup and backed up everything before the flash, but I can't figure out how to access the data I backed up. Sorry, I'm a noob, but I searched for hours and couldn't find a solution to this specific problem.
(Also, my camera hasn't worked since the flash)

Yes, and now I just get a message that says "Unfortunately, Setup Wizard has stopped." As soon as I press OK it pops up again instantly ad infinitum. And now my phone won't boot into recovery!
Go into recovery wipe cache and dalvik reflash the rom and gapps.
Edit: sorry missed the can't get into recovery. Do you have goo manager or rom Manager depending on which recovery you use and reflash recovery via app. If not as next user pointed out Odin is your friend.

That's what I'm trying to do...unfortunately my phone will not boot into recovery. Holding down proper buttons does not work. And since I'm stuck on this error message I can't get to terminal app to reboot. And when I hold power button the "boot in recovery" option is not there.

Turn the phone off. Then press HOME>POWER>VOLUME UP at the same time this will boot you into recovery.

Then the only suggestion i have is to flash stock rooted rom or any TW rom and see if the phone works properly. Then we can proceed fresh again. If you run into issues on TW rom then a full odin to stock might be required.
