I was using CM11 on my Galaxy S Advance for a few months, today I restarted my phone and it was showing the CM11 Boot Animation normally, then it showed up the lockscreen and then turned off instantly showing the CM11 Boot Animation again. I did a factory reset with my CWM, everything got fine, then I restarted my phone again and it was in that kind of bootloop again. Can someone help me? (I can't reinstall CM11 because when I plug my USB cable in my phone, Windows doesn't detect it, and I can't put CM11 ZIPs in my phone)
Hi,
You don't have a nandroid backup from CWM you can restore? Having a good backup kept on the phone is always essential in this hobby. No cm rom zip either that you can install from on the phone? Without either, you may need to Odin flash stock to your device. But for other advice, or help with any of my suggestions, you can ask here...

HI guys , while doing a factory format using TWRP i have erased the OS in my tab3 .
Now when i reboot my phone , i can get only to the recovery mode on TWRP and it says no OS installed .
please guys how can i reinstall the rom/OS to my tab or any solution to my problem.
plz plz help
Hi,
First, always do a nandroid backup... In case you need to restore.
You could download a rom on your external sd card on another device, put it in your tab 3 and flash it.
Otherwise you likely will need to use Odin to flash stock.... If you can't use an SD card on another device.
If you need further help, you will need to ask here.... But please specify your exact model... There's many different Tab 3's....

ok this is how it all started. my galaxy s4 19505. was rooted but then every day apps would mysteriously uninstall. at random. and apps would unexpectedly close at random then be stuck in a loop of pressing ok to confirm it closed. this was starting to bug me so i wanted to fix this. i then looked to upgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4 or 5 i tried to upload a new rom via odin. but it wasnt working. it was an authorisation fail. so then i thought id reset it to a factory wipe. so i wiped cache and wiped data. now its stuck with the error message of kernel is not seandroid enforcing. and it gets stuck at the samsung logo.
i can still access the root menu to update. but when i update it says unauthorized access and something like bad footer and no authorisation. i can still upload but on odin i have the same problem a fail in the authorisation.
please help!!
i also forgot to mention that i cant carry anything onto the sd card ive got. i do have a spare but the other one is my 64gb one. its not letting me transfer anything and i cant format it.
Hi,
Odin is used to flash original stock firmware, not custom roms. But maybe you know that.
Here us a dedicated help thread for your device that you can ask for help in,
