please help me to restore my phone

I have a similar problem install CWM and make a backup, install CyanogenMod uns as not connected to the network restore the backup, now does not start and not let me get into Recovery, only stays on the screen for samsung mobile, please help.

There isn't cyanogen for the indulge, best I've found for this device is was a custom rom and kernel made by Konane posted on android forums all things root subsection for the indulge. Seems dev is dead for the device tho as it was posted last year and no new updates to it which are needed because it seems metro found a way to void some of the great improvements made.

what is stock rom

stock rom

Hi,
a stock rom is the software that is on your phone when you bought and don't have a branding on it.

yeah basically, its the software that came with your phone straight out the box.
untouched/unmodded/etc

software that is on your phone when you bought and don't have a branding on it.

if i rooted my device and i backed up that ROM, does that count as Stock ROM too?
i understand that there are modified ROM's out there that can be installed (flashed), so rooting does not count as modifying the ROM...right?

no that is just a stock rom you have added busybox su binary and superuser app to it .
You can fully unroot that. and it ll be again like your old stock rom

its kinda in it name..little research goes a long way.

Before flashing custom rom some developer ask to flash stock rom given by them, does there is any difference in that rom & the one install in our smartphone but get update through ota to other firmware version than the given version....??

kernel metter

i think after updating phone using ota service some time changed kernel version and custom rom not supporting that kernel so they tell us to flash stock before install their rom.

Hello. If I rooted my phone (with Kingo Android Root) and then unrooted, but did not make a backup, is there any hope of restoring the phone? I did not flash a new rom. I had only copied my SD card files to my PC. I'm stuck at the set-up stage (I get force-close each time). Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thanks much

[Q] Note 10.1 4G N8020 messed up

Hi all. Tried my first root + custom rom installation and i messed up the device..
i had the newest KIES firmware update (phone XXBMA5) and (XXBMA6) and i rooted the device with odin (3.07). That went OK.
Then i installed the CWM recovery with odin and that was OK too.
Then i downloaded the latest Omega Rom (i missread that it supports N8020) and followed the installation instructions to the point where it started installing Omega V2.0 from SDCARD and then it asked me to select device from a list that included only (N8000,N8010,N8013)..
So the situation now is that i have working odin, working CWM and backup of the EFS (img+tar) but no working recovery. i live in Finland and the device is Sonera locked i think, so the stock roms (international) do not work i guess.
KIES has a backup of my Note but i can't even get to a point where KIES discovers the device.
So basically i think i need a working ROM for my model (Note 10.1 4G N8020), or can i recover the original samsung software somehow ?
Any advices ?

Removed

Just a thought, but can't you reflash CWM or the stock recovery?
If you didn't install the rom why do you need to re-install anything. Just powering down and powering up should have left you as was....

Maybe i'm missing something but isn't CWM your custom recovery?
It doesn't sound like you've actually installed any rom yet.The Omega installer doesn't actually install anything until a few steps after the one you mentioned about the model type.
I'm with ultramag69 on this one. You should still be on a stock rom unless you already wiped your original rom.

Hi again. Problem solved, just had to do emergency thing from KIES. Like i said this was the first time trying root + custom ro install and to be honest it went to ****. Somehow i managed to delete the stock firmware so that is why the recovery gave me (no files). I did make some backup but when tried to restore it said MD5 mismatch or something. At first the KIES emergency recovery could not find the device, but after i switched from CWMcto stock recovery it worked.
So what did i learn from all this ? Nothing, because i am getting too old (tired+lazy ) to do proper investigation. So one could say my strategy is to bang my head to the wall as long as it takes to go trough. Even if i could just go around it
So basically i am now at the point where i started, with stock 4.1.2 rooted. Used the triangle away to wipe the (6) custom installs or something away, but it still says custom in the settings> information. Does this mean that OTA won't work ? Any way around it ? Because i would like to check now and then that is my version of android the newest one..
Could someone recommend a custom ROM for my Note 10.1 4G (LTE) N8020 4.1.2 because the only one i was able to find was the CyanogenMod (or something) and it basically makes the S-Pen (almost) useless. What i would like is the Omega ROM, but like stated before the installation only supported N8000, N8010 & N8013...
Added screenshot from info.
Thanks anyway

What is truly amazing is that i did not brick the device tough..

How did you switch from CWM to stock? I have having a problem syncing with kies also using omega rom on n8013.

I was not easy, i just tried the download mode over and over again with KIES open in windows and somehow it finally did find my device and offered a emergency restore. That is it, and the device was restored to default "original state".

OMG.... one would think after nearly having bricked your device you would either A) stop messing around with it or, B) read and learn more about what you're wanting to achieve and THEN maybe trying something with the ABSOLUTE certainty that a backup to restore is available to you in case of any mishap!
Moral of story :
Don't do anything until you are absolutely sure you have read EVERYTHING about what you are going to do.
For others wanting to mess with their devices, take heed! You may not be as lucky as OP (or troller) whichever is applicable.

There comes a certain point, that when crossed one does not care what happens to the device at hand. After fighting with my n8020 for several days in a row i couldn't care less, and like said before i dont have the level of enhusiasm like i had when i was younger. Of course i know now what went wrong.. But seriously, these are just overpriced toys, so it's not a matter of life and death.

[Q] Spice Pinnacle Mi-525 FHD reboot loop problem

My Spice Mi-525 has a weird problem. It restarts in a loop after loading home screen properly. I have removed SIM card and tried factory reset and battery removal many times but problem is still the same. Going by some other threads it seems I may need to flash stock ROM again. Can someone please provide that? Is there any other custom ROM available for this phone? Any other suggestions please. Thanks.

I couldn't find any solution so took it to service center and they re-installed ROM. As the phone was in warranty it didn't cost anything but took 10 days to get it back. They refused to give me stock ROM on pen drive when I asked. No custom ROM is available so I am not trying anything fancy with this phone. Not even ROOT.

It has got a Mediatek chip so you can try this link http://blog.morrison.nl/how-to-restore-a-no-1-p7-mini-pad-rom/ . It also has another link about how to take backup of ROM. I haven't tried it so you are on your own.

just root your phone using frameroot
install cwm recovery
and backup your Rom for future problem

Please Help !!
Dear,
I think i might have bricked my Spice Mi-525. I installed a custom rom Lewa mode ultimate. After the installation finished, i rebooted my phone and now it just comes up with these two logos which say Lewa mod ultimate and then the screen starts to go blank slowly and turns kina grey blackish shade. the phone doesnot turn off using power button after that,i remove the battery to do so.
The phone is a spice pinacle fhd mi-525. I have read about the concept of stock rom , if possible could someone help me to just restore it to the default software again please.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

[Completed] Lost Root somehow and can't seen to reapply it on my ZTE ZMaxx!!

OK first off this is my gfs phone, I had rooted it using Kingroot with no problem. I flashed a custom ROM I used cynogen 12.1 and also flashed a synthetic v3 kernel. Her phone was working just fine until she let some know it all at her work mess with it! I was wondering why the hell I couldn't get into recovery thru my twrp. I have to manually do it now. Even then everything I try to do it says it fails. So I can't back it up at all. Nor flash the old stock KitKat THST it originally came with. Her screen has been blacking out to every since that dumbass friend of hers downloaded pimp my rom. He had no clue wtf he was doing. Now thru that app it allows me to delete all added **** he did to it. But somehow her phone lost her permanent root!!?? Beats me, but it explains why I can't use device control anymore. And why I can't wipe the cache to the dalvik machine. I can't flash any roms, I can't do ****. I tried using kingroot but no work! It worked on my 4th try last time but I was using her stock Android 4.44 KitKat rom. I recall reading somewhere that kingroot doesn't support lollipop 5.2 which is what I put on her phone using Cynogen 12.1!!! So basically if I can't gain access to permanently root her phone I won't be able to fix it at all! Which is bs! Van anyone help me? I manually go into recovery mode it won't even let me do a factory reset. No matter what I do it keeps saying Fail!!! I'm growing very impatient, I need to fix her phone asap. I'd appreciate it if any of you guys can help me out please. Thank you for your time...hope someone helps me.
