i guess you can say that it will bring up the samsung galaxy note 2 sit there like usual for a few seconds then reboots back in to cwm instead of going to boot animation like t-mobile4g or what ever animation was used as a custom animation
ok i am not sure if the way i was transfering to the sd card was messing up the file or if the dl was bad because i used a diffrent mirror to dl the rom once dled i didnt just put on sd from pc like last time this time i put it on the sd card via file transfer with charging cable this time it may have worked i managed to get the boot animation to come up instead of the cwm so far so good here is hoping it works thank you for your time and attempt to help

Alright so just got the skyrocket and i've been really good with the galaxy s vibrant in the tmobile section so I understand the basics but I messed up.. I flashed the CMW in odin and that went fine then I tried to flash superlite 5.1 via CMW and I formatted everything except the emmc(external sd) and continued flashing the ROM. it got stuck in a bootloop... i tried the normal thing and pulled the battery and reflashed the ROM but same thing...I did have a backup but my dumb @$$ didn't think about it when i formatted the internal that it would wipe the backup I can still get into download mode but the computer won't recognize the phone nor will odin so I can't get back to stock. I can also get into recovery still but I can't get it to boot normal all it does is stay stuck in the bootloop not going past the samsung flash screen..can someone make a backup zip that i can flash or will this not work? any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Just follow the process again and reflash it.
I've tried multiple times and continue to get stuck in the bootloop it almost sounds like it shorts before the phone goes back into the loop each time

wipe and flash the ics radio and then the rom
alright I will dig around and find the radio unless you have a quick link for me
modem can be found here
http://hive11.com/android/ics/ICSradio.zip
i would first do a darkside wipe
http://hive11.com/android/DARKSIDE.SUPER.WIPE_EXT4.zip
first flash the darkside wipe. then flash the modem. then flash superlite. hopefully this fixes your bootloop.
thanks for the help I will try the above steps and report back when i can

You all fixed up? was it a bad download or bad flash?
This happened before but I can't remember how I fixed it.
1. Flashed TWRP (over codename if that helps)
2. it bootlooped back to recovery instead of starting the system
3. tried flashing another rom/ didn't work
4. finished season 2 of the walking dead
5. reflashed TWRP didn't help (TWRP flashing failed even tho it was the same file I used to get TWRP in the first place)
6. Took the battery out but that didn't help either
I really don't want to odin or use one click any ideas??

Meh, lets start with the first two...
To stop the reboot to recovery, you must flash eollie's oneclick with bootloaders (so flash it twice, second time flash bootloaders) and go back to mtd.

TWRP Major Boot Loop
hey guys, im new here and i desperately need help with my phone!
the other day i was flashing a rom on my samsung galaxy s 4g. Things were turning out fine, until i had some complications on my phone.. so, i removed the rom. when i rebooted my phone, it went directly into the team win recovery project boot loop and every time i try to reboot my phone, it goes into the twrp. I also can't wipe anything and i can't delete anything! Does anybody know how I can solve this or is my phone basically bricked
more details would be helpful..
As in what rom, or what kernel.... etc... and make sure you have the corret phone.
Same problem with t959p
Looks like I'm not alone.......here's my story
the other day I wanted to switch from a stock rom to a custom, so I flashed redux 1.3 which was actually a froyo rom, and it started draining my batt like crazy so I flashed another rom on top of the froyo rom not realizing what I was doing and somehow messed it up cuz now it will only boot into recovery.
Now just to be clear I know this was my fault, I know I should have odin'd back to stock first, but I wasn't thinking at the time.....Ohh and just so you know I've flashed this sucker hundreds of times and was always able to get out of any mess I got in.
So here is the situation as it stands now, 3 button combo to enter download does not work. I can only get it into download with the jig I made. the problem is even in download mode none of my pc's will detect the device as a Samsung composite device, so odin will not see it. I've installed every possible 32 n 64 bit driver I could find including reinstalling kies. Kies wont even see it. I've tried flashing a few roms that I know worked and still it just boots into recovery. Now one thing I'll tell you is that depending on which rom I flash I can get recovery to switch from cwm to twrp. right now I left it with cwm 6.x.
what I need is a cwm flashable stock telus t959p rom complete with bootloaders or at the very least a cwm flashable zip file containing the bootloaders to see if I can recover the phone.
ohh and if your thinking about telling me to google search for the answer then don't bother.......I've spent the last 4 days reading posts and going to different websites and repositories trying to find something that would help me and so far nothing has.
the only thing that might work as a last resort is pushing the bootloaders as per one of raver's or whitehawks posts but it's a little more complicated for me as I would have to set up a laptop with Linux as I don't think i'll be able to pull it off with any of my windows pc's, win7 and win 8 only.
so if anyone has the files I need or can make them please let me know....or if you think you have another solution I could try i'm all ears err eyes.
thanks

Have you tried heimdall one-clicks? Maybe it's showing up as gadget or something like that. I've had luck using zadig and heimdall to bring it back from the brink of death.

Woops replied to the wrong thread .
Nothing to see here, move along
Would like to revive a slightly dead thread.
I upgraded to a Galaxy S3 and no longer use my SGS4G for daily use. I had AOKP and disliked it, FC's and didn't like the feel. I have been trying to install a new rom ( old rom, VH Black Ed. ). Every time It loads into TWRP I have the ability to select the zip, install, it says complete, but reboots right back to TWRP menu. I've tried flashing CWM and it will install, flash the rom, reboot, and right back to this TWRP B.S... what am I doing wrong? I want to continue to use this SGS4g for music and internet duties.
How can I install CWM and have it stay even after a reboot? This TWRP is starting to me off
Did you happen to one click to stock before you went ham at the recovery?

Can you post what rom you are using right now, as well as what recovery version.
Also, what rom are you trying to flash ? You are rooted, right ?
If you can post some more details - am sure people will chime in
Good luck,

I'm running stock 4.0.4, Rooted, Clockworkmod recovery. I have tried to flash several different roms. Romswell, AOKP, CM nightlies thru ROM manager. all of them fail in recovery. I flash stuff all the time on my SIII so I'm not really a Noob to flashing and what not, but I can't figure this one out. Thanks for any help.
What are you using for recovery? When you say failed what is the error message? Sounds like you should prolly reflash a current official recovery. If by failing you mean it hangs on first boot then your not wiping system before flashing. Factory reset and wipe system before you flash.
Are you by chance running any scripts for sd card swap, etc ?
I am running this script, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1961097 which swaps my 32GB external sd for the internal sd, which runs great - no issues, except with rom manager and flashing from recovery.
I have to go back and de-activate the script, reboot, and then dowload - or transfer file from PC, and it flashes without issue
Otherwise, I have had no flashing issues of any kind - using CWM 6.0.1.5 for the p3113
Good luck,
Bill
HI GUYS I REALLY NEED HELP PLS READ MY STORY :
I love flashing custom rom so as i've seen some guides here i succesfully achieve it and recover if i have boot loop because i made a nandroid backup. So i became confident of flashing things and stuff like that . But this time i try to install Xposed Framework in RS PROJECT MOD V2.0 (Not popular rom) and it bricks my phone so i wasn't worried b'cuz i know that i can still recover using TWRP so i wipe data , factory reset and wipe dalvik , the usual thing to do when restoring back up , So i restore my stock rom which is Alcatel Pop c7 and it was successful from what the TWRP Recovery said then i reboot , and i noticed that there was no logo of alcatel stock rom showing for 3mins unlike before it shows the logo instantly. So i turn off the phone and i go back to recovery but this time i remember that everytime i restore my stock rom it goes back to stock recovery so i can't access the TWRP again i really need help ..
So my question is : How can i restore my phone using the stock recovery? Or is there any other way to recover it except that? pls i'll do anything for this phone cuz im already poor :'(
sorry for bad english..
Note: the custom rom RS PROJECT MOD V2.0 didn't brick my phone it brick after restoring my stock rom bcuz of xposed

Well you could try flashing twrp recovery and installing a different rom which should get rid of the problems you made. Or you could wipe everything via fastboot and restore the stock firmware again.

Can you get into the bootloader of your phone? If so get a computer and flash the recovery via fastboot.

Yes it should still work.
While I was attempting to flash CM 13.1 to the phone, it got stuck in a bootloop. Would not get past the white startup/splash screen. So, I booted it into TWRP and attempted to install the recovery I had made using TWRP. It ended up throwing me an error (I don't remember the code.) Anyways, I got the bright idea to completely wipe my phone and retry it. Now TWRP deleted my recovery, and my OS is gone. It was rooted and had SuperSU installed before it got bricked. Any help at all?
Regards,
Cheer
Hi Cheerfulfilms
Next time when you brick your phone, read this thread. I hope you'll be good now.

The Xtreme System ZIP is no longer available.
*update*
I decided to try my own way and it worked very well. Using TWRP I was able to transfer a ROM onto a MicroSD, and then install that ROM from TWRP. It's a lot less complicated than the thread given. The Xtreme stock ROM is running very well though.
