Hi there, I must have flashed the wrong sense ROM. I am extremely noobish, so bare with me.

I tried following this amazing guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2739126 but have had no luck when it comes to flashing the recovery indicated.

"C:\adb>fastboot flash recovery twrp-recovery-2.7-m7-nobcb.img

error: cannot load 'twrp-recovery-2.7-m7-nobcb.img'"

It looks like I entered it right...

My phone will power on and function OK with data and text, but cannot make calls. Sometimes it'll reboot into hboot when I plug it into USB/AC. I have access to fastboot, but not adb, nor recovery.

Have you selected the Fastboot option in bootloader before you flash that?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Enigmatic Fart:
Yes and it shows under "fastboot devices"
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Enigmatic Fart:
It's now managed to have gotten worse and will only boot into the spash screen, then Fastboot (not Hboot).

If I remove the sim card, it will boot up normally (unless it's plugged into USB/AC). If I insert the sim, or plug in the microUSB, it will shortly thereafter crash into fastboot.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
1- error: cannot load -> means the filename is wrong

2- Are you able to get to any kind of stable (or at least semi-stable) part; ROM or TWRP?

3- can you please provide the link (thread and file please) of what you flashed; so that we can look what was corrupted
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Enigmatic Fart:
1) I tried simplifying the name to TWRPnbc.img and it's still says failed :(

2) I was able to boot into the ROM, make texts and use data reliably for a bit, once this issue started, but now it is so bad I can only access fastboot (including presence in "fastboot devices" of fastboot commands). Hboot does not acknowledge USB, adb devices shows nothing (device manager shows nothing in Hboot mode) and attempting to load the ROM kicks me back to Fastboot (not Hboot). Recovery kicks me back to Fastboot as well :crying:

3)It was a while ago that I flashed this ROM and it WAS stable for nearly 6 months, but I think it was just the first ROM of the list for the GURU resets, here:

http://www.htc1guru.com/downloads/stock-rom-downloads/

The version of TWRP I was trying to flash, if you are interested, is in the guide/link in the OP.

Thank you for your time and attention, nkk71!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
1- renaming the file is no problem, but you probably ended up with <NAME>.img.img (double extension due to Windows hiding known extensions), hence the use for Windows Command Prompt - DIR command and TAB-completion

2- you being able to boot (to some extent is good-ish)

3- the htc1guru files are meant for the HTC One M7, so nothing wrong there

i'll need to catch up with you tomorrow, as i'm off for tonight, take it easy
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Enigmatic Fart:
Cool man, I'll run through and try to flash it again in the meantime and edit this post with results.

Thanks again for your help! Peace!

EDIT: OK, I see what the issue was, but a new one popped up. So I was attempting to flash the recovery I placed in my phone's storage. I now have "TWRP.img" (latest TWRP) and "TWRPnbcb.img" (the no bcb one from that guide) in my adb folder (where fastboot is) on my PC and have attempted to flash both recoveries for S&Gs.

Here are the results:

"C:\Windows\system32>cd C:\adb

Hi,

Couple days ago, I decided to root my unused android phone. Everything was working great. Yesterday, I had a OTA update file. I pressed cancelled/put it on hold, but when I woke up this morning, i see my phone installing 29% with the samsung logo, then it said failed. It would be loop this over and over again. I managed to get access to recovery boot using flash rom. I wiped my cache, full factory reset. Now, it just reboots and keeps on entering recovery mode. I did not know that even after wiping data, my phone is still rooted. I tried unrooting using this method using a MD5 file. I couldnt link the site, but I used this method ""[Guide UPDATED] How to Unroot your AT&T Galaxy S3 (Return To Stock I747UCDLK3 JellyBean )""' but it said failed when I tried to write the flash rom onto the phone. Is my phone completely done? How can i fix this? Please help. Thank you

What bootloader was on the phone before the OTA update?

You could try flashing a custom recovery and then flashing a custom ROM. This should at least get your phone booted.

Sorry, I am not really sure. I am new to this. Is there a way to check? My phone was stock. I did a full factory reset before I rooted the phone. Next day, it try auto updated and here I am now.

Do you have a custom rom you recommend?

I managed to flash the CWM recovery into the phone, but when I tried to flash a custom rom which is stock rooted, it says failed. Even with CWM on the phone, I can only access CWM recovery or download mode. Restarting phone loops CWM recovery

Does cwm have a built in terminal emulator like twrp? If so, use it and enter this:

getprop ro.bootloader

If it is a newer version, it is probably why Odin is failing. (Depending on the version it may also explain why it won't flash your custom rom. What error does it show when it fails BTW? ) If it is not, make sure kies is NOT on your computer. Try a different USB cable and USB port.

Also, What version of cwm are you using and what rom did you try?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Looks like you are using Odin to flash a custom ROM which cannot be done. Use CWM to flash the custom ROM.

I am using CWM 6 touch. I tried flashing the stock rom from sanmobile but it keeps failing. My odin version is 3.10.7. I am trying cwm flashing now.

Edit: There's only an option to flash from a zip file so I kept my stock rom in a zip filed. Tried it and it says can't open file. Aborted
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
Oh OK, you're referring to the stock firmware. Sorry, I'm used to differentiating between the two. Stock firmware is what you are using, and I've always considered stock rom to be just the system and kernel like custom roms.

Odin is primarily just for flashing the full stock firmware. You cannot flash that in recovery. You'll need to figure out exactly what build you were on previously by using the terminal emulator command I mentioned before. If cwm doesn't have a built in terminal emulator, you can flash twrp instead and use it.

I suspect you may be on a newer build than LK3, which may explain why odin won't flash it.

I do not suggest trying to flash a custom rom at this point. If any part of the base firmware was corrupted due to the incomplete ota, it is possible for it to hard brick if you try to boot into the system before flashing it correctly. This is still possible no matter what you try to do. It just depends on where the OTA failed. with a little luck this won't happen, but I thought you should be aware of the possibilty anyway.

The safest way to proceed is to first find out exactly what build is on the device. Then we will be able to determine what you should be trying to flash and how.

I hope I'm not confusing things even more for you BTW! If you need anything cleared up just let us know.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xJoker:
I have flashed the newest twrp onto the phone. Is the terminal emulator the "terminal command"? How would I check which build am I on?

Sorry, really new to this.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
Yes, that's it. I think you might need to select a folder or something, if so just stay at the root directory. At the command line, enter

getprop ro.bootloader
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xJoker:
It gave me I1747UCUFNE4
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
Ok, it sounds like it's updated at least partially to NE4. You cannot flash anything older than that which is why you couldn't get Odin to work.

Your best bet is to go to enewman17's thread for NE4 and flash following his instructions. This will finish what the OTA started and should fix the device.

Are you sure you didn't accidentally download the wrong one? Double check the file name if you would.

The reason I am asking is because according to the log you posted above, it's trying to flash d2att_I747UCUEMJB_bootloader_modem_4.3.zip

That file can't be flashed because it is older than your current build, NE4.

File name for the MJB I have in my download folder:

d2att_I747UCUEMJB_bootloader_modem_4.3.zip

I just noticed you said i am using an old file. Could you link me to an updated file? I downloaded everything exactly in the first page of that thread
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
Ok, do not flash the MJB package or it'll make things worse. You're device says it's already on NE4, but because the OTA failed part way through, we can't be sure what exactly got flashed. This means you need to reflash only the NE4 package to rewrite the firmware so we can be sure of what is on the device.

I just took a look at the NE4 file though, and as-is, it will not work because it doesn't write the full modem. Instead it patches the MJB modem to bring it to NE4. Since you may not have the MJB modem, this cannot work.

I'll try to redo that portion so instead of patching MJB, it will flash the full NE4 modem. Doing it this way should work. I'm going to shoot a pm to enewman17 too. We did have some issues with NE4 and i want to make sure we don't make things worse! The NJ1 and NJ2 packages include the full modem, so since those are confirmed working we can probably use the script from there with the NE4 files.

I will work on that while waiting to hear back from [MENTION=2972841]enewman17[/MENTION].

I am sorry for not being more clear on what to flash earlier. I know this is probably getting a bit frustrating by now....

Well it looks like he already had one!

From this post in one of his NE4 threads: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=55206211&postcount=268

This is the package linked to in that post: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23578570567720263

So download that file. ( d2att_I747UCUFNE4_bootloader_modem_4.4.2_7-29-14.zip)

Also download the stock/rooted system and kernel package (I747UCUFNE4_Stock_Rooted_3-31-15.zip):

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347765735

Flash the bootloader/modem first, then flash the stock rooted zip. (Don't reboot between them)

After flashing both reboot. Hopefully everything will be working again!

Now reboot twrp and flash the NJ1 file.

Reboot

Do the same for NJ2

This will leave you with NJ2 as your base firmware and modem. The Android O/S will still be NE4. You can download and flash the NJ2 system to be fully up to date!

If you plan on flashing a custom rom, don't bother with the NJ2 system. You can go straight to flashing whatever rom you want instead.

let me know if I wasn't clear on anything or if you have any questions.

I flashed both the bootloader and stock rooted files onto the phone. The phone finally booted to the OS. I am now on the NJ1/NJ2 step. Where could I find these 2 files?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
That's great news! Glad to hear it booted up!

You can find both NJ1 and NJ2 in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2985006

Note: you only have to flash the bootloader/modem packages in order. If you want the NJ2 system you can skip the NJ1 system.

So get both bootloader/modem packages and flash them in order. (NJ1, reboot then NJ2)

Then get the NJ2 system and flash it. You'll then be fully up to date on everything.

If you plan on flashing a custom rom, only do the bootloader / modem updates. No need to flash the NJ2 system before a custom rom.

Hope that all makes sense!

Okay, I have flashed everything. Phone seems to working as of normal now. I have just a couple more questions to ask.

Is my phone already rooted from that stock root file you had me flash onto the phone?

If not, what's the safest way to root my phone to prevent errors?

How can I disable the OTA/update so this doesn't happen again? It automatically updated/installed when i was asleep.

Thanks for all your help, I really appreciate it.

Edit: In the case that I do a factory restore in the future, will that wipe all the firmwares I have done in this thread?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
Glad to hear of your success!

Yes, it should already be rooted. Look in the app drawer for SuperSU to be sure. Open the app too, just in case it needs to update its binary file.

As long as you are rooted, it will not allow the OTA. It sees the system as modified and won't allow it. You can test by pressing Software Update in Settings - About Device. It will tell you pretty much the same.

factory resetting only affects user data. It won't touch the firmware and you will also remain rooted.

And You are very welcome! I'm glad I could help and that you got it working again!

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
Double check that your modem and bootloader are matching.

After all the above, can you verify what you are now running? Did you flash a custom rom or kernel?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xJoker:
Both are matching. Currently on I747UCUFNJ2. I used everythinv from this thread. Used the stock rooted rom, then I did the NJ1, 2 patches. Rebooted and the wifi tab will not switch to on. Instantly turns off. Grayed out bar
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
You might need to factory reset. It's possible there may be some data from whatever you were on before that is incompatible with the newer system.

Make sure you back up anything important. If you factory reset with stock recovery installed, it will wipe ALL user data, including internal SD card. If you still have a custom recovery, it should preserve the internal sd.

If that does not work, let me know. I'll have a few more ideas after I've got a little sleep!

Sorry you're having so much trouble with the thing! It should still be fixable though.

I have a suspicion that there may be a symlink issue somewhere.

The two best suggestions I have are to either flash the kt747 custom kernel (in Original Development section), or another rom.

There's another stock NJ2 rom here you can try:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3183267

Either of the first two listed are fine, your choice. Or if you're interested in a custom rom, I highly recommend S3Rx, but there are several very good ones you can choose from.

Just thought of another option if you care to try. In twrp, run "fix permissions". No idea if it'll help at all, but it's something to try.

And just a quick FYI, it doesn't matter if you choose factory reset from settings or recovery. Doing so from settings just reboots and does it from recovery automatically. Same result either way, it just depends if you have a stock or custom recovery that makes a difference.
