http://forum.xda-developers.com – Hello Everyone, My Nexus 7 is rooted and was running AOKP. I decided to find another Rom to try out and downloaded one using ClockWorkMod. I rebooted into recovery and did a full wipe, then I installed the Rom. When I clicked reboot a message popped up but I was not able to read it entirely, it said something to the effect of "flashing this rom will overwrite........" and I didnt catch the rest. I tried to hit "Go Back" but the N7 rebooted into the new Rom. It was basically a stock rom so I tried to boot back into recovery and CWM was not installed. I downloaded i (HowTos)

After all the problems i had with my Wifi using ics (arco) i decided to downgrade to stock rom but with the new baseband hoping to solve the prblm.

So I went back to stock rom after trying several rom and I got a update notification so I just downloaded it and then I check with Samsung Kies and I have the latest stock rom.

Now I lost root access so I rooted my phone again and flashed clock work recovery using Odin took out the battery before first reboot so it doesn't overwrite it and reboot directly to clock work recovery!

do not boot into the stock recovery...it'll wipe your phone back to factory...you'll still have root...but it'll wipe everything else off :(

but yay! i booted into the stock recovery?....

i used rom toolbox and did the "reboot into recovery" option...just to see what would happen...and this blows...

I have an uk atrix, unlocked bootloader, rooted and has had many roms successfully flashed before.

I decided to go from MROM to Neutrino, did a wipe and installed fine in recovery, rebooted and it ran like normal!

I then Installed, GPS mod, Gapps, Theme chooser and Clock mod in recovery and rebooted

im now stuck in a motorola logo boot loop and when i try to boot into recovery the screen

I noticed the other day that there was finally a stable release of CM7 for Droid 2, so I decided to give it a try.

My phone was already on 2.3.20 (because it would never upgrade properly), so I didn't have to downgrade.

Hey.

My friend has a galaxy s2, GT-I9100 It had the stock rooted ics rom on it. He had some problems with it and I decided to flash resurrection remix on it. I did a full wipe( wipe data/fact reset, wiped cache, wiped dalvik cache and formatted /system)

Then I installed the rom. It flashed succesfully.

I completely ****ed up my SGS3 on Verizon. This is what happened: I was trying to go from an AOKP rom back to stock, rooted touchwiz. I forgot to make a backup on it right after I rooted it so with my conscious I decided to use odin and flash the full stock image then it went through the process.
