Help,
I rooted my VZW s3 and all was good until i tried to update to a CM10 rom..
It would not install the zip file.. I followed all the guides about backing up the imei file ect.. and I used the correct recovery.. it would not install..I kept getting erros with the ROM zip files I downloaded. so i tried the ez recovery app and installed TWRP.. I like that and have used it in the past.. well I forgot that I cant restore a backup from CWM. so now im stuck bootlooping into TWRP recovery.
Any help?
I was installing TWRP while my GF was talking to me. Not that I'm blaming her or anything but I failed to add the "dd" during the manual install. Now I'm downloading the stock rom and going to try Odin to get my phone functioning again.
Twrp doesn't support kexec, so it will only boot stock based ROM's

Not saying this will help you, but it did with me. I have no idea how.
Tried vol down/home/power and it booted into the custom rom screen. Cancelled that. It rebooted normally..

Recover system first and then buy mobile odin pro in playstore and setting Odin to everoot, otherwise you must go back to stock to ota or just try using Kies via usb and then reroot afterwards if you want...not totally sure as I have the p3113

Try pulling the battery, then put back in, and then power up straight to recovery> volume up/power. Out of my knowledge base for samsung, but has worked for other android devices, (HTC)

Installed CWM 6.0.1.0 and rooted this device then installed a 10.1 nightly, wiped dalvik and all but now device boots straight into recovery after samsung 10.1 logo.. I've already tried flashing back to the stock rom using Odin, flash went fine but now it just boots into stock recovery instead of CWM.. also a bit of weirdness to it.. when i click on reboot system it just turns the device off instead of "rebooting", i've tried wiping everything and nothing seems to work.. was for sure the stock rom from sammobile would do the trick but nope ... any suggestions? Thanks.
Perhaps flashing v6.0.3.3 might work. :beer:

Your device is soft bricked
Flash a new rom!
Google your device ROM and flash it. That's all.

Lolllll brother!!!
I thought your using some sorta funny device, YOUR USING THE LEGENDARY SONY XPERIA SERIES PHONE.
visit this tutorial and download your rom + flashtool and flash your rom using flashtool.
forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-x10-mini/development
Well. It's more complicated than that. My kernel is naa latest version. I cant go in recovery mode. It stucks in grey screen with no options on when i press the back button. i will try to flash stock kernel and rom but iam not sure it will work. Its weird that i cant go in recovery mode. Plus that when i use flashtool i cant moderate anything else in my phone because computer or usb doesnt recognise the model. i will try update via sony and let you know. If you have any new suggestions post here. Otherwise i will buy a new phone soon.
Guys today i tried to root my s6 but it's now bricked.
I tried EVERYTHING: odin 3.10.6, odin 3.9, kies and smart switch (which says my device is not supported)
What can i do now?
Please help me

You haven't tried everything. You have tried everything you know tho. If you had tried everything, there was no point asking.
First, was you on 5.1.1 and did you use CF-Autoroot?
Can you get into download mode and flash stock 5.1.1 from Sammobile?

Yes i tried everything i know
I was on 5.0.2 and tried cf autoroot
I downloaded 5.1.1 firmware but odin keeps saying FAIL.
I'm now downloading the same stock fw that was pre installed. Can i do something else?
Yes i can get into download mode

Well it's a soft brick then.
If I can't help you, someone else definitely know the answer.
Try follow this. This is a guide to flash a custom rom, but well, you just follow the bootloader and modem part and AFTER that you flash stock 5.1.1.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60112855&postcount=3
You can't root on 5.1.1 tho. Not as of yet. Then you need a custom rom. But let's take that after your phone is fixed.
Do exactly as stated in the "guide". Flash modem + bootloader together and AFTERWARDS if it flash succesfully you flash 5.1.1 stock from Sammobile (you can't downgrade so 5.0.2 is not possible to flash anymore. It will fail.)
Just under the guide the bootloader and modem is for the difference models. Make sure to download the right one.
I will try it. I'm downloading the firmware right now (so slow)
Is there any way to turn off the phone? I hope it won0t suffer burn in effect because of the static image.

As long as you can get into download mode, it's just soft bricked. Try different PC's and USB ports. That have helped me more than once when getting stuck on Odin.
But what were you on when you tried to root? 5.0.2 or 5.1.1? Can't see why flashing stock firmware should fail. You sure you do everything right?

If you can acces Download, you can access recovery aswell. Hold down home button + volume down + power button until it starts a reboot. Once the screen go black, release all buttons and then fast volume up + homebutton + power button at the same time and there you go, you're in recovery.
The reason you think you can only get into download mode is because the same button combination that gets you into download mode restarts your phone.
So yes, try flash TWRP from Odin.

Well if you succesfully flash 5.1.1 your phone works again. No idea what's wrong with your Odin tho. Try delete all the Odin files and download it again (https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934555153).
I THINK you're on 5.1.1 bootloader and modem as I got the same error as you. I flashed 5.1.1 bootloader and modem and could not start phone before 5.1.1 firmware was flashed.
You COULD try follow this again STEP FOR STEP when re-downloaded Odin (and deleted all the old Odin files). http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60112855&postcount=3 REMEMBER to download the right version for your device. Like if you have SM-G920F it's JUST below the guide, else scroll further. Remember the bootloader and modem should be flashed at the SAME time and is not for the PDA slot. If it succesfully flash them, then try 5.1.1 stock firmware now.
But step for step the guide and be aware of those (DO NOT connect your phone before this step, otherwise it won't work!).
If you don't want to try that all over again (as I THINK you're on 5.1.1 bootloader and modem) you could try download download Odin again (as linked) and try different USB ports + PC's. If you try to flash bootloader + modem again, then try different PC's and USB ports too.
Wait wait guys... I just flashed a newer versione of twrp (
Why the hell i was flashing an older version??? ) and BOOM...it restarted and surprise...5.1.1 upgrade with my data and files (nothing touched and deleted).
I can't figure it out why root on 5.0.2 didn't work...
Finally i got it back working at least.
Thank you guys form you quick support and thank you Faspaiso for the help
Btw, root on 5.1.1 not already available?
Smells like reactivation lock.
