[Q]Any way to resolve an unrooted tablet with a corrupted stock ROM?

I had rooted and installed CM 10.2 to my tablet about two weeks ago. It was working fairly well but I decided I wanted to go back to my stock ROM. When I flashed the stock ROM the tablet caught in a boot loop after resetting, never getting past the Samsung screen. I can get into the stock recovery mode, but I have lost my root access. According to recovery mode the /efs has been corrupted. I cannot get into download mode, so Odin and Kies are of no use right now.
I can flash from my external sd card, but being a stock ROM without root it will not load accept anything that is not digitally signed. I've not been able to find a digitally signed ROM or recovery mode that would help, I even tried getting the ROM from Kies but to no avail. I can get command line access through my PC, but without root there is not much I can do with this.
So now I'm stuck with the worst of both worlds, a corrupted stock ROM with no root access.
Any ideas on how to resolve this?

If stuck in bootloop, have you tried factory reset in recovery?

Unfortunately seems my backups ups were lost in the corruption. I know I made one, but unable to find it now. Also don't see an option for restoring the EFS folder in the stock recovery mode.

No, and I'm not really sure how that works. But how can I get it to the the tablet without download mode?
I'm fairly certain I bricked it, but I'm just taking the off chance someone knows a way to pull a rabbit out of the hat on this.

I don't know if it works or not .... But if u can flash TWRP recovery this would help to solve

As long as you can get to the bootloader all isnt lost, you could use odin from there to reflash the images with the toolkit

It just goes straight into recovery mode, no matter what I do. Never goes into or gives me the option to go into download mode.
I can get into adb and flash things that way, but if what I'm trying to flash isn't digitally signed it won't flash it because I lost root.

I think i have a answer, since youre stuck in recovery and it does register in adb right? download the toolkit here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2341488
follow all instructions in the command prompt, choose your model and version of last installed software, if not listed choose 4.1.2
then choose option 3 to install a recovery image, i will reflash my device and make a recovery zip for you to flash in twrp and that should fix it or so i think.

Wait- why can't you get into Download Mode? (You've tried holding down "Power" and "Volume Down", I'm assuming?) Plus, you've mentioned "signed images"- which model do you have? (neither the N8000 nor N8013 require signed images, as they're factory unlocked).

Just so you know Volume Down is the one closest to the power button!!! and if you can get into download mode you could also flash a recovery from there and then install a rom.

I'm not sure exactly. Since something went wrong when I flashed my ROM I also lost my backup of the original Samsung ROM that came with the tablet. Not sure if that's a related problem or not. Due to not having a backup I downloaded a stock ROM from SamMobile and flashed that one. That's when I lost my ability to get into download mode and the CWM I was using.
It is a N8013. There is one wire leading from the battery labeled N8000, which caused some confusion to me, but it is a WiFi tablet, not 3G, and all other documentation says it's a N8013. Maybe Samsung uses similar internal parts.

Please help only twrp booting

Hello all
Please, Please help, none of the guides have worked, Every guide is just a little different from my situation and nothing works
I have a att inspire.
S-on
boot unlocked
hboot 2.0.0
shipped with 2.2
I installed ran ace tool to unlock hboot. clockwork 5.8.0.0. Backed up. verified back up. Tried installing a few roms. No Success.
Then found a thread that referred to CWM needing flash boot.img, tried that, no luck. then I realized that I have flash a boot.img from a different rom. So I install TWRP 2.6.x which is supposed to flash boot.img automatically. So I went ahead and tried a few other rom installs, DR.Ni, Aosp, carbon, fallen Each rom preceded by a full wipe. No luck. So I verified back up again and "restore" .....no success. The process completed successfully, but every time I "reboot" it prompts for SU install, I have tried both accepting and declining this step neither work...Every reboot the HTC white screen green letters comes up, then blacks out, the HTC screen again, then TWRP loads.

restore backup "successful" reboot gives white screen HTC in green letters then to black screen, then back white with HTC and then CWM loads.
So if I can flash what do I need to do and if there are files I need please, I hope for the love of all that is holy someone can provide a working link.

Wait, you said you are unlocked and then ran the "ace tool." How? It's unsupported, and the files it needs are no longer there. What does your bootloader say right now? And do you want to flash a radio or a ROM?
If you want to flash a radio (why?), you do need S-Off. If you just want to flash ROMs, unlocked S-On is fine. Each time, you'd need go flash the ROM zip from recovery on your phone, then extract and flash the boot.img from the ROM zip in fastboot from your computer.

And you definitely don't need S-Off and actually can't be unlocked to run a RUU. If you want to run a RUU you'd need go relock.

VERY top of screen says "unlocked"b in magenta.
thn blow that s-on
I don't care about radio, just wanted to try out some different roms.
Every freaking rom I fashed would just sit at HTC white screen. I tried like 6 different roms. Not one would work after a completed flash with either CWM of Twrp, that is why fastboot flash boot boot.img, then the problems began I think.

Yes, you need to fastboot flash the boot.img each time. Extract the boot.img from the ROM zip, then flash it from fastboot.

maybe this is the key element I am missing.

Okay,
Then when you do a restore from backup in CWM do I need to flash a boot.img. Is there a boot.img in the backup zip? would I need to extract it? or would "restore" do that.
anyone have a known clean stock rom and boot image. or update.zip the os version I was at originally 2.3.5

I believe restoration of backup doesn't require flashing the boot.img. But if it doesn't boot on restoration, try reflashing the boot.img.

I did a adv restore and selected restore boot, that did not work. there was a boot.img in root of sd card adb pull ang then flashed....no go.
Unfortunately I cannot locate the path for the CWM backup I made prior to all this shYte.,

I cannot get original backup to work...
Now that I have the process down I think I will be able to find some rom that I can see easily.
The whole reason I started this was to find a rom with a little bigger font or dark background to menus etc, being that I am visually impaired.
Dr No has white back grounds, very hard to see. I tried aosp but that one jjust sits at boot animation.
Anyone have link to best optimized stock'ish rom

Failing to mount anywhere, please help.

Earlier I was trying to "S-OFF" my device so I can rewrite my "SuperCID" so I can update my Hboot to 2.15 and somewhere along that process i've managed to seriously screw my phone over.
Currently, my phone is unable to be mounted anywhere... My phone is without a ROM, so all i've got access to is the bootloader screen, and TWRP v2.7. And mounting my device in recovery mode then pushing a ROM file through "adb" does not work.
I have the AT&T EVITA dual core version of the phone.
I know this was completely stupid of me, and that i've might have made my phone into a pretty expensive paper weight. But any help at all would greatly appreciated. Thanks all.

No, fastboot is not recognizing my device. However when I emulate adb on my recovery it does recognize. And when i tried to push the ROM file into my /internal_sd it showed that it was unable to be mounted.

Your best bet is to get to bootloader connect to PC and cmd window fastboot devices. See if PC recognized device or not. If it does reco the device, extract boot IMG from the ROM and flash it via fastboot
Sent from my One X using Tapatalk

Did you run a factory reset from the bootloader by any chance? That could be part of your problem. The other part of your problem is that TWRP 2.7 can have issues with mounting the sd card, so purely for the purpose of copying a ROM across you'd be best off installing TWRP 2.6. Of course that requires a working fastboot connection so you need to sort out your fastboot drivers. What OS are you running on your PC?
One thing I'll add here is do not run an RUU unless you're s-off.

Well, unfortunately now it looks like you really have bricked your phone. That recovery isn't for our device, we have the Evita so you should have downloaded from here:

It's too late now, but for future reference you need to be more careful. Flashing that recovery has screwed your partitions, I believe the only thing that will save your phone is if you pay for a jtag repair to be done. You should be able to request s-off at the same time too.
Just out of interest, why did you download from there? What lead you there?

so for some reason I held my volume down button and power button for like 5 mins just as desperate last attempt before i give up for real.
and to my surprise im on the bootloader screen now. Luck is on my side i guess, how fortunate.
So now before i go about possible screwing up even more, would it be too much to ask for my next step to recovering my phone?
I have no idea how i stumbled upon that link. i was in status of stress and wasnt thinking clearly.. completely forgot that our model was the evita.

You're incredibly lucky, usually flashing something that's not intended for your device ends in a brick. Download TWRP 2.6 from here. Put the file in your fastboot folder. Connect phone in fastboot mode, open command prompt from within fastboot folder, issue the following commands:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery "filename.img"
(the exact filename, minus the talking marks)
Code:
fastboot erase cache
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Now you can select recovery from your bootloader to enter TWRP. Use the mount menu to mount usb storage and then copy a ROM across.

You have to have the ICS boot loader and Boot Menu Manager in order to install and run CM11 or any other ROM that is Jelly Bean and up. Just update your firmware, root, install BMM the start flashing. :thumbup:

So I'm having some trouble.. Before I do this I need to fix something.. Heres whats going on every time I reboot I lose my imei number my carrier says unknown and i have the red circle with the line thru it. I dont want to install another rom if this is going to keep happening. An advice on how I can change some settings to make it stop. I've looked and looked only find things for galaxy's. Thanks in advance

catch me up with what you did to get where your are at, I need to know your cause before I can find a solution.
next, are you rooted and have a custom recovery installed? You can boot but get nothing right? Did this happen when you flashed a new ROM or after you got rid of things in your system?

After I had a jelly bean update, only the touch version of TWRP seems to work. Every recovery I tried other than that is not working. The touch version is tweaked by some contributors in xda. Latest recoveries of twrp itself not works with my handset

only thing i did was change my boot animation. An thats it downloaded cydia substrate and winter board.. I removed both and tried to reboot and same thing happened. Also it was doing it before I even installed them and changed the boot animation.
I might of deleted some att apps but when I did a full restore and got them back I even fully uninstalled bootstrap with titanium back up. An say after I fully restored I turned my phone off and back on boom no imei no service etc..
My phone is rooted an im on firmware 2.3.6
I have no clockwork mod I cant get it too work or I know I cant get clockwork mod wit bootstrap.. But even when i went into boot recovery i was just in a bootloop at my motorola boot screen. an was not able to get into recovery no matter what button i pressed.

sometimes flashing a rom can wipe out your imei

install ROM manager, its an app, it has an option that lets you boot into recovery straight from system without having to use the buttons

I hate to say it but it looks like you might have to flash a jelly bean STOCK(not custom) firmware, then start over from scratch, I think you are going to have to do it anyway because there are things in the stock jellybean that you're gonna need in place before you flash any kind of new ROM, it would also be easier that way than trying to fix your problem befire you start.

did you try piwering off or pulling the battery out it back in and then use the button combination to boot to recovery instead if using bootstrap to boot to recovery?

yes as long as it is a stock version of jelly bean for your device, doesnt matter the version as long as its for your exact model number
you won't be able to do it through recovery though, you'll have to have a oc to flash stock firmware to your device, you'll need to download your stock firmware (not custom roms), the usb drivers for your device, and whatever program is required to flash your stock firmware. no other way, then you'll have to root again and install a recovery then you can find and flash whatever custom roms are available for your device

you might could just reflash recovery with a pc with whatever method your device uses on pc then flash a custom rom, its safest to just flash the stock and start over

when you say you keep losing your imei do you mean you can put it back but it won't stay?

there is a process that you can do through the terminal emulator app that you can make a backup of your imei and a method to restore it but you'll have to find how it is done for your device, do a google search for "HOW TO MAKE AN IMEI BACKUP FOR (your device model)" that should give you something.

Hello..!!
Do you've Atrix 2 mb865 ..?? if yes you can follow this step..
you need to download ICS/JB leak firmware for ur device AT&T/International version, then you need rsd lite to flash ur stock fw back to ur device via fasboot mode..
Root ur device again and then you need to install Boot Menu Manager from playstore . No Bootstrap anymore if you want to have KK rom on ur Atrix2..
Bootstrap only can be use if you're still on GB only..
Hope you got it my friend ...

Really...??
No.. you no need to backup your IMEI on this device.. But you must need to backup your CID .
You can do it via bmm recovery.. there was a option menu to do it when you're on recovery setting interface ...
Sorry if I'm wrong. ..

I told him I wasn't familiar with his device, I told him to flash a newer version of stock because it has parts he'll need if he flashes a newer custom ROM but he keeps wanting yo fix what he's running even though he's gonna have to flash over it anyway to get where he wants to be so I don't see wgat the problem is, flashing stock will get rid of his issue then flash up to whatever Rom he wants, I don't see why he doesn't just go ahead and do it now instead of doing what he's doing.
