I was stock ROM, S-OFF and rooted...Clicked yes to install OTA when prompted..Phone reset and then that came up and its doing nada...
Am I screwed? What should I do?
Can I do a battery pull? Am I bricked?
I pray someone helps me and doesn't flame. I know there are some good people in here still.
I appreciate any help I can get. Thanks.

You are not bricked you should be able to do a battery pull and boot up normally if that doesnt work since you are rooted get a tmobile 2.3.3 ruu and runn that..

I believe your mistake was doing the OTA WHILE being rooted. Good news is, is that most people here tried the same as you and all are fine now.
A beer would be nice, huh?
Matt

Thanks!
Doing battery pull now. Will update If any more problems.

It's not root that kills the process, it's the custom recovery.
I assume you have CWM Recovery?
You need the stock recovery to make the OTA work, hence you have to use the RUU to get it back. Instructions are here:

After that, you can re-gain root by reading here:

How did he manage to flash a rom s-on? Surely you need a custom recovery for that?

HTC Dev unlock will let you install a custom recovery while S-ON, then bob's your uncle.

Nope, it's a .exe, you run it.

Well Bob's your uncle lol. You can flash a custom recovery image when you are HTC Dev unlocked. HTC Dev unlocks your system partition, boot partition, and recovery partition.

i tryed to flash the ruu last night but it get to the point where it need to reboot in to boot loader but does not do anything
anyone got any idears

It's a shame people like you have to be on boards like this where we're working with technically complicated processes and data, and you post a ridiculously vague question with absolutely no information. His response was appropriate, and equated to a simple "uh huh.....that's great".
Until you post more information for people other than "I tried flashing it and it failed at 10%", nobody is going to care. The people I see on XDA.....man....
Noone has a clue what you flashed, what processes you used, what files you used, what steps you followed (and didnt follow), etc, what commands you entered, how you flashed items, etc.

Make sure that you're flashing the latest version of your phone's ruu, make sure the phone is locked and in fastboot before you flash.

This will probably be moved or you may want to post this in the help section. But while im here. You able to get to bootloader? Or download mode? From power off hold all three down. Power home and volume down. You should xome to a triangle. From there you should be able to get to recovery. If not save battery and get to a computer and xda the odin 3.07 .zip and drivers also the file will be there as well. You should be ok. I dont want you to freak out as it is kindof hard to really brick. But possible . So. Head over and follow the simple steps. I got in a hurry once and flashed the wrong zip and blacked out. I powered off via battery pull held three buttons and volume up I believe. Then I got back into recovery via reboot.
Edit. I then wiped everything. System too and reflashed backup

Yeah I told him matter of time as its my first line in my post. In the meantime if I see someone needing help should I just tell them nothing more than move post to proper threads or? I don't want to cause any friction. Been doing this a long time but not in xda. Much respect and regards moderator ..

[Q] HELP with ParanoidAndroid 3+!

device info:
Sony Ericsson Xperia J
model #: St26i
android version: 4.1.2
build: 11.2.A.0.21
unlocked bootloader + rooted.
Hi. Just recently flashed ParanoidAndroid 3+ on my phone. But I am having some issues with it. The biggest issue was It seems I can't access to HYBRID SETTINGS. When I tried to apply some settings, it says reboot, I reboot, after reboot, nothing changes, nothing happened. I wanted to change the size/resolution because its too small but its not working. I am having a hard time hitting the options due to small fonts/resolution. 2nd issue was I can't send SMS because it says service not available.. What's wrong with my phone?:s Did I do something wrong upon installation with ParanoidAndroid?
Here are some screenshots of what I have been takling about:

}
it is not what i expect to look like. As you can see only the PA colors has a description.
see?its too small.
As you can see, the size setting is set to 0. which is too small. when i try to move the button to right to change size, it won't move :/
the system says, cant send SMS due to unavailable service..
I really hope someone would help me because Iwould really like to use ParanoidAndroid for my device :crying:

Rom thread means, the thread from where you downloaded the ROM.
This is the one i believe.

Try this guide
New To Adb And Fastboot Guide
If that does not help you or if you just don't have the aptitude, try this
Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit v2.04
Best of luck

If he can't figure out how to root and flash his phone by following the guides, then he should not be doing it at all, let alone using a toolkit. If he uses a toolkit I guarantee the next thread he posts will be "Help! I bricked my phone and don't know what to do!"
@ohad123454- You have the easiest phone in the world to root and flash. Everything you need to know can be found here- http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...urce-guides-info-threads-linked-read-t2784527
If you seriously can't accomplish what you want to do by following the guides in that thread, then maybe you should just keep your phone stock, unless you want to end up with an expensive paperweight. I'm not trying to be a **** here, but it seriously doesn't get any easier than with an N5. Call it tough love.
All that said, if you genuinely attempt following the guide and get stuck at a step, feel free to post here about where you're stuck and I'll be more than happy to help. But you gotta try to help yourself first.

We must have different youtube apps

Can you tell us actually which part of the guides did not work for you? Also check everything while you using programs, they usually tell what you do wrong.
