[Q] Help Please!

So I have a VZW S3 on NE1 rooted and running xposed. I am not sure what module it was that I installed but my phone is now stuck with the SystemUI constantly crashing to the point of me being unable to use the phone. Then I, like a moron, Unrooted my phone thinking that would stop the issue. It didn't. I do have usb debugging enabled and my phone connects to the computer. Can I just boot into recovery and use the Xposed-disabler-recovery zip to fix this? will that wreck my phone since VZW is so annoying? Would that wipe my memory? And if that doesn't work what else could I do except pull everything I can off my phone and and reflash the entire thing using Odin?
Thanks a million!

OK, I see then just flash the xposed-disabled-recovery.zip using custom recovery. If you locked with only stock recovery, you may need to do a factory reset,

From stock recovery? That won't make my phone trip the fuse for modifying the system? By the way Thank you SO much for replying.

I accidentally hit send before finished typing, if you only have stock then a factory reset probably your best bet,

[Need Help Fast] Boot Loop on Vega Iron NOT NORMAL

Hello I'm a user of a Sky Vega Iron (IM-A870)
And I need desperate help.
It's not an ordinary boot loop I wish it was, here's the story.
I rooted my phone just to let you know.
So I installed the wrong version of cwd recovery on my phone and so when I go into recovery mode the screen will turn like this.
imgurDOTcom/iOFieHG (sorry I can't you links yet cause I'm new)
But it wasn't a big deal I just didn't use it.
Now is the deal I decided to update my phone to stock kitkat that the vega devs supported themselves with vega station(the stock updating app)
And when it started installing it suddenly went into cwm.
I wasn't that worried at the moment just tried pulling the battery out and rebooting but...it started a boot loop.
I can't navigate cwm because of the way it is and I'm stuck. Is there another way to factory reset? or to get out of the loop?
Maybe a way to get rid of cwm and get back to stock recovery mode? Please help I need help until tomorrow! (personal reasons)
I searched online hours for solutions yet I can't find one.
Please help. I'm begging anyone out there.
Thank You

you would need to get to one of 2 places, i thought you couldn't get to either, settings (from booted up) or recovery.
but factory resetting would only remove any data, it will not restore any files or fix your busted cwm.

i cant say that for sure, all im saying is, factory reset does nothing more than wipe data.
if there is an issue in there causing your problem, then yes it will fix it. if your problem is caused by a software issue, then no it will not.

Factory reset phone with root and twrp

Hello guys, yesterday I sold my phone. Now im trying to factory reset my Oneplus one in the menu. But when I do that it reboots and gets in a TWRP bootloop. I already backedup my data on my new phone, so I just want to get rid of everything. When I reboot the phone nothing has changed and all my apps and data are still there. Anyone have an idea what I should do? Thanks in advance.

Simply boot into Recovery, tap Wipe and swipe to begin the process. Doing so will perform a regular Factory Reset.

The best way to ensure that the device is ready for sale is by flashing the stock images with fastboot. See section 8 of my guide:

i dont have experience with your specific device, but yes, it almost as simple as that. thats part of the purpose of twrp is to flash stuff.
the very first thing you want to do is, go to the backup tab and backup all the options.
then, leave that backup on your phone, but save a copy to your pc, for safe keeping, in case you accidentally delete the one on the phone.
after that go to the wipe/advanced tab
note- this step will wipe your data and is manditory, if you have any data you dont want to loose, stop now and back it up before proceeding
select cache, dalvic cache, system, and data ONLY, then swipe to wipe
next go back to home screen and select install, find your rom, select it, and swipe to install
next, reboot and wait for it to boot up.
if for whatever reason it wont boot or is broken,
go back in twrp and wipe the same things as above
then go to the restore tab, and restore the backup you made earlier
then reboot, and it should be back to the way it was.
this will have your phone working while you figure out why the rom didnt work.

Sorry but I have pretty much erased everything on the phone, because I came to that state .. I rather throw my phone in to the wall or press on every button there is...
So here we are now, All I can do is install from USB I guess, but when I´am trying that, it only says error.
adb sideload *something*

Internal Storage seems gone

Hey, i have oneplus 6.I have unlocked the bootloader,i have stock rom and my phone was rooted with magisk. Few days ago i unrooted my phone, clicked uninstall in magisk and it started unrooting. Then if it was done i clicked reboot and after that my phone was only able to boot into twrp. It couldnt boot into ROM.Nothing on the internet helped,so i flashed my stock ROM again (i was on my stock rom already) from flash drive. It went well and my phone booted up. But since that my phone doesn't show internal storage. In file manager it shows 10/128 GB used, but if i try to look into my storage it doesnt show anything. Also if i try to take photos, it cant,and i also cant download and update several apps in play store.
Can somebody help me? Can somebody explain what happened?Does somebody know how to fix it if its even possible?
Ty for help :')

Hi kimmix, and thx trying to help. I havent done the factory reset yet, but i want to say that my phone doesnt have root either twrp anymore. Unlocked bootloader is ofc still there. Do i need to do factory reset from phone settings then(settings/system/recovery and resets/factory reset), somehow from my stock recovery or i need to put twrp again to my phone (from pc)?

This happened me a day or two ago.
Drove me really crazy, tried bunch of stuff flashing full zips over and over. Nothing fixed it.
Then inside twrp I used fix contents button (if I recall correctly it should be under advanced menu)
And that totally solved my problem, It should solve yours too.
Before factory resetting boot twrp via fastboot and try.
Hope this helps because that gave me some sleepless nights.

Hey, sry for so many queations but...
I looked around in this forum and saw people having same-kind of problems. The replys told to do the 'format data'. Will it help my problem to be fixed?
And if it does, so i nees to just:
1. Boot to twrp
2. Select wipe then format data then confirmation
3. Then reboot
Is it just simple, am i missing some steps, please tell me. And thank you very much for help

Ty for answering, did you mean :
1. Boot to twrp
2. Do 'fix contents'
3. Boot to system
And if doesnt work then
1. Boot to twrp
2. Do factory reset
3. Flash stock rom to A
4. Boot to B
5. Flash stock rom to B
6. Wipe cache
7. Do 'fix contents'
8. Reboot
Am i right?
