[Q] [URGENT] Need Help For MY DEAD DEVICE

I recently changed back my build.prop to the original one that i backed up before. Then my device cannot boot anymore. It is stuck in the ASUS splash screen when i boot the device.
Then I flash the latest CWM recovery. But the latest version CWM cannot do anything like factory reset or flash zip.
After that, i tried to use the "wipe data" in the bootloader, it doesn't work either (still stuck in the splash screen).
And then i tried cold boot linux and it also doesn't work. Up to this point, I cannot find anyway to fix it.
However, I found that adb is somewhat working in CWM recovery. I tried "adb push build.prop /system/build.prop" (the build.prop is extracted from the US_epaduser_10_26_1_7_UpdateLauncher.zip package from ASUS official site), it doesn't work either.
I put the US_epaduser_10_26_1_7_UpdateLauncher.zip package from asus support site in sd card and tried to flash it by CWM recovery, it doesn't work either.
AFTER ALL THESE PROCEDURE, i think the system is corrupted because of some possible dirty wipe
IS THERE ANY WAY TO WIPE EVERYTHING AND RESET THE whOLE SYSTEM?
i feel like my device is completely dead... so i need help and solution asap
my device is unlocked, rooted, and updated to 10.26.1.7 android 4.3.
it is a US version.
btw i asked ASUS support and they said they would charge CAN$330 for fixing it (replacing the main board), which is.........
So is there any ways to fix it without sending it to asus repair ccenter?
I want to make sure that
1. The wipe data function in the bootloader works
2. Does wiping data in bootloader fix the build.prop problem
Or do anyone of you have any idea of solving tthis problem?
ANYWAY TO WIPE EVeRUTHING INCLUDES SYSTEM thROUGH BOOTLOADER?
sorry for my bad english

Have you tried to install Full Recovery Mode ?
First Enable USB Debugging and watch if your Device is correctly recognized on you Device Manager .
Search and install the software , for first use i suggest to search some Tutorials about this.
Then you can use the Full Recovery Mode and format / wipe cache and system .

Factory reset & flashing doesn't work

Hey,
i've got a few problems with my HTC One S, running Cyanogenmod 11 (4.4.4) with TWRP as recovery.
Since a few days nearly every app crashes, ca. 3 minutes after I start the phone. In these minutes everything is working. After that there are only messages that "android.process.acore", "com.google.process.gapps" and nearly every other app has been closed. When I press OK, the message appears again.
So I tried to flash another ROM, which isn't possible because I first can't copy anything to the phone, the copying process stops after the half. I also couldn't download a ROM directly to the phone. Then I tried to flash again my actual ROM which is still on the phone, I selected the .zip in TWRP, but then the phone is restarting and nothing happened.
There are also other problems:
1. I tried a soft reset in the settings, isn't possible because nothing happens when i press the "Confirm" button
2. Clear storage and Factory reset in the boot loader isn't possible, when I select one of that the phone only starts into the recovery, without anything has been resetted
3. Pushing a zip with ADB doesn't work, it says I don't have permissions to copy anything on the storage
4. The ADB sideload mode doesn't start in TWRP
5. I tried to flash CWM as recovery, it says "successful", but when I start into recovery there is still TWRP..
6. Relocking the bootloader doesn't work, it also says "successful" but in the bootloader appears "*** unlocked ***" After that I tried to turn back to stock ROM with the RUU exe by HTC, but when the process starts, the phone just turns off.
Does anyone have a idea? Do I maybe have a virus? Sometimes it appears to me that there are problems with the storage or anything like that..
I really tried to do everything, and also searched in this forum and in other but I didn't find anyone with the same problem..
Thank you!

Give the Mount option a try in TRWP and see if you can copy a ROM over to the phone.

Okay I had to install the right driver for adb..
Then adb push worked, I could select the .zip in the Install option in TWRP, but the phone again just restarts without installing the rom..
ADB Sideload also worked with the driver, but after I tried to ADB sideload the ROM it said "* failed to write data 'protocol fault (no status)' *"..

Cannot Enter Recovery & Lost Root After Update

What i've done:
I rooted my Nexus 5 some months ago, TWRP got flashed in the process and i flashed CyanogenMod 11 -> Everything works fine
A few weeks ago i used the built-in encryption -> Still everything fine
Today, i decided to flash the newest CM12.1. I downloaded the rom and gapps, entered TWRP, typed in my encryption-password and flashed the ZIP-Files.
CM12.1 started fine, all data and settings still and place.
My Problem:
Then i tried to start an app requiring Root-Access. -> Got denied!
To fix this, i wanted to enter the recovery and flash SuperSU manually, but suddenly i cannot enter TWRP anymore. It won't accept my password for the encryption!
Because i made backups, i then considered to reset my smartphone. I went to the security-dialogue, and pushed the reset button, but my phone just ended in a loop where it showed the TWRP-Logo and a blackscreen for a few seconds.
Now i can use my phone, but i don't have root access, cannot enter recovery and feel ****ed up. How can i solve this?
How do i regain root without being able to enter recovery or -> solved
how do i update TWRP without root? Iirc, to use adb sideload i have to be able to enter recovery, right?
or how i reset my phone, so i get rid of the encryption?

CM 12.1 stock without TWRP root etc. in trouble

Hi,
last month I received an OTA update on my stock OPO Cyanogen 12.1, ever since then my settings app have disappeared (cannot access it at all, not even from safe mode)
a week ago I started receiving an OTA notification to update to the latest firmware (20MB download) (I think it's Yog4pas3jl)
anyway I was not able to update it, i would get booted back into recovery (OnePlus recovery)
*this phone does not have its USB debugging let alone developer options enabled.
in recovery I attempted to factory reset the phone (after half way attempting to unlock bootloader using Android SDK, Universal ADB and CMD)
now it appears that my phone has been "reset" but at the selecting language screen I keep getting Unfortunately CyanogenStats has stopped, and also getting Unfortunately Setup Wizard has stopped working (after tapping on language)
I can't use my phone now as I can't get past the setup wizard,
it does not appear that I am able to boot into recovery as well, please help me!
*UPDATE able to enter Cyanogen Recovery, tried wiping cache/factory reset, still stuck at Setup Wizard has stopped working. Oh no..

Try flashing a custom recovery and wipe dalvik+chache+data (doing that will not delete your sdcard). I also got such FCs in the past and that fixed it for me.

Try to flash system partition (or full firmware) via fastboot. Just follow this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guides-bacon-timmaaas-how-to-guides-t2839471, "8. How To Flash The Cyanogen OS Fastboot Images".
P.S.
You could get full firmware here: http://builds.cyngn.com/cyanogen-os.../cm-12.1-YOG4PAS3JL-bacon-signed-fastboot.zip

Rooted but locked out before bootloader with pattern :crying:

Hi guys,
i try to root my s7 (930F, exynos) with cf autoroot.
I have a locksreen before the phone starts, i only guess its before or right after bootloader (after the recovery restart to bootloader menu)
Is there any way to bypass this?
What i tried:
- some restart and draw the exact pattern, and a few wrong too
- android-findmydevice not working
- cleared cache
- adb sideload can be reached via recovery, and the rm gesturekey thingy also not working, only "error" result
- dont want to do factory reset, but if thats the only option ... :S
if i could do it that would be a nice xmass gift Thanks
Update #1: did a factory reset, not helped, even worse
Update #2: installed TWRP then flashed TGP 1.2
