If you want to data factory reset just pull the battery, wait 20 seconds and boot into recovery and factory reset.

To be blunt, I don't believe that you did a search. There are hundreds of threads asking and answering this question. And dozens of tutorials and pointers to firmware repositories, not to mention abundant firmware posted in this forum. It would be impossible to miss all of those links if you even came close to (your words) i did search everywhere.

Nevertheless, several people including myself already answered your question which you disregarded. Nor have you provided very much information about your situation, error messages, what keywords you tried to search on or anything else. There are lots of people that are willing to help you here, but if you neither make an effort to describe your situation in detail or spend a few minutes searching that is on you. There is a difference between willing to help you and spoon feeding.

All of the information that you could possibly want is in existing threads. Or even in this thread if you make an effort to describe your situation with a reasonable amount of detail to aid troubleshooting.

im asking for help, not asking you to ***** at me
I've already tried all the recovery mode shizz and odin, but none of them worked. I dont need you to tell me to look up stuff on search, i already have and had 0 - nada luck. And where did you find firmwares posted in forums? instead of yelling at me, help out.

Tried helping you in post No. 2 of this thread. But you appear immune to help that isn't thoroughly sugar coated..

Good luck with your problems.

5) If that doesn't work take it back to Tmobile and tell them it is defective. You have a year warranty.

6) If you are stuck or have tried every single method like you said you did then try responding to those specific threads for specific help. *****ing, moaning, and getting offended like a 12 year old is not gonna get you anywhere. The people on XDA are probably the most helpful people u can find when it comes to your problem. You are asking for FREE help...
