New to the forums so Hello! and I appreciate any help you can offer!
I had gotten fed up with the DInc low memory notification and having to clear app data consistently so I decided to go ahead and root. After doing my research and getting pointed to http://rootzwiki.com...d-regain-s-off/ I began the process. If you want more details on how I got to my current problem I'd be happy to elaborate.
During the rooting process in the above thread I got to the backup step and it went through most of backup until it ran out of SD card memory space. Moved some apps to phone, deleted some apps, deleted some data when connected to computer as disk drive including first attempt at backup data. Attempted backup again with the same result (I clearly need a bigger microSD for future backup/ROMs). Attempted to reboot to maybe move more files, etc. and got stuck in a boot loop which I can only get out of by booting the phone when connected to the charger or computer. I searched and tried a few things to fix this with no success so I tried restoring to factory settings but still get the bootloop issue and now the phone can't mount the SD card. When it's inserted nothing happens like the phone simply can't detect and mount it. I tried two other new SDcards with the same result and I checked the original card directly on my PC and found all of the data still there. I tried a few things I found by searches to fix the SDcard not mounting issue (including reformatting) but nothing worked and in the process (perhaps during attempting to update drivers) the phone now isn't recognized by the computer at all. So I effectively can't do anything with my root anymore including unrooting via computer or backup onto sd card and even if I just wanted to let it go and just rebuild my previous settings onto my factory reset phone, many of my important apps rely on the sdcard and in general the phone can't nearly do as much without the sd card (camera for instance).
In summary: I still have S-on, am rooted, cannot mount the SDcard, and can't connect the phone to my computer.
Sorry for my post being all over the place; I just have so many issues with my Inc and have tried a lot of things only to get lost and confused as to what I can try next. Any help is greatly appreciated!
