Hello,
I have a ZTE Avid 4G that has no Android OS to boot from because I accidentally formatted the system partition in CWM-based recovery, trying to factory reset it. I have been trying to find a stock rom/custom rom for it for the past several months, but I haven't found anything useful. On top of that, ClockworkMod won't even detect an SD card. Can anyone help me with this? I really need to get this phone back up and running again.

Severe panic!!
I rooted my Desire which was running 2.2 Froyo on the O2 UK network using unrevoked and it worked fine without any issues. Custom recovery by ClockworkMod.
The next day I then decided i needed to turn S-off so found a guide and tried installing unrevoked forever from a zip on the root of the SD and i got 'installation aborted error 42'. Tried again the next day but before i got started i decided to give myself re-assurance that i wouldnt lose anything on the device so i entered recovery and chose restore.
Big mistake! My handset then rebooted and got to the O2 splash screen. It wont move from there. Pulled battery out and tried again. Same. I assume i havent bricked the device and it is just stuck in a boot loop?
Since then i have removed all my user data from the SD card and 'cleared storage'. Tried installing an miui rom and again 'installation aborted'.
Can anyone clarify why this is happening and point me in the right direction?
I am a noob and would appreciate any help on this.
I had an unlocked Samsung Captivate i897 I bought off of Amazon, that ran Gingerbread 2.3.5. I rooted the phone, and the very same day, I decided to upgrade it to Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0. I used this guy on Youtube as a guide:
/watch?v=ksTuw0qmAbI
While in Clockworkmod, I backed up all my data and files. Then I installed Android 4.0. It worked perfectly! I was running CM9 Ice Cream Sandwich!
Then, I decided to try to get my files back. So, I rebooted into recovery mode, than restored in Clockworkmod. It worked fine. I tried to reboot the phone... then everything went wrong.
The phone wouldn't boot. It was stuck at the screen at 2:53 in the video (the one that says "GALAXY S GT-i9000 SAMSUNG") for literally hours! I tried to reboot into recovery mode several times; that didn't work either.
So I decided to flash the stock Gingerbread kernel again, hoping I could get my phone at least working. The phone still wouldn't boot; it was stuck on the "AT&T World Phone" screen. I booted it into recovery mode, Clockworkmod started, but it couldn't mount the SD card!!!!! Now I'm stuck, I have flashed several stock and custom kernels to no avail, and I really don't want to brick my phone as I bought it unlocked.....
Thanks to anyone that can help!
Have u tried flashing a stock rom back on to the phone? If you haven't I would do that.
Cheers

Yes I have tried that.
Yes I have tried that. After doing so, I was able to get recovery mode to work (only download mode was working previously) but Clockworkmod can't mount my SD card.
If I try booting the phone normally it gets stuck on the "AT&T World Phone" screen!
Update: my PC is recognizing the SD card, and I see all my files. So is Clockworkmod. But it says it can't mount /cache, /recovery, or /data for some reason! And the phone still won't boot!
Hey guys.
I'm new in the Android world and bought an LG G2 back in november.
I had originally intended to custom install cyanogenmod or KitKat 4.4 to replace stock rom, but I couldn't find a way to install a custom recovery, and was only able to root my device via Kingo Android Root.
A while later I saw an update that popped up, and not knowing any better I clicked install. It was about 114MB. That was about 3 days ago, and my LG G2 has been stuck in a bootloop ever since.
When I try to turn it on the LG logo shows up, then it says "secure booting error"and "Cause: boot certification verify" on the top left corner of the screen in white text.
I tried doing a hard reset, but that didn't work. I don't have a custom recovery so that I can clear the cache and data or something. So pretty much I have a bootlooped phone with no custom recovery, I can't do a hard reset, and it's Sprint and everything's new so it's harder to find a fix.
Does anyone here know of a way I can fix this? It would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Hello, i own a xoom stingray tablet. I was trying to get cwm on my tablet and did a few things to it. But basicly in the end i messed up and wiped the whole tablet and now it has no OS at all. My recovery keeps saying i have no OS. I dont know what to do. I just need a way to get back to stock and not mess with my tablet again. I can still boot up into the boot logo and get into recovery and stuff. I have no SD card so that wont work. Someone please help?
Hey guys i have a somewhat serious issue here. About 3 months ago I performed a backup of my entire system on my SD Card but somehow it got erased. This is where things start to go bad. I tried to make another one but it rebooted and the boot screen became disorted. So I tried performing a factory reset. I was given the same screen. I tried to reboot to recovery manually and was given the same screen. So now iam unable to reset, backup, or change my rom. I hasn't bothered me until now. I have a Samsung Galaxy Exhibit SGH T599N. It is currently running cyanogenmod 5.1 but from a different developer. I think it's called Meticilous Devlopment or something closer to that. This actually started happening when I downloaded NikeRun and when i turned on the GPS thats when i got the disorted boot screen for the first time. Keep in mind that Iam still able to load it up, use it, make calls, search the web, etc. I just can't load it into my custom recovery which is TWRP. Please help! Thanks so much.
