ok so yesterday i rooted my telus fascinate and i was going to isntall the MIUI rom. Following a guides instructions i installed rom manager and did a clockwork mod recovery, i then put the rom on my root file of my sd card and tried to install it through the "install rom from sd card option" on the app. Problem was i only got into the stock recovery mode and not the clockwork one it aslo gave me signature failures. I then followed the guide of this video:

when i installed the kernel everything went fine but then after i got into CW recovery and installed the rom my phone booted and it just kept repeating the normal splash screen (it said galaxy I9000 instead) followed by a screen that said something like cryogenic mod. I got freaked out from here and tried to install stock kernels to get my phone running. As of right now my phone will boot but only stay on the splash screen. I can not access recovery mode. I really need some help, thanks.
these are some of the files i used:

the links are broken. Did you install a rom / kernal specifically for the telus fascinate?
i believe it could have been for the galaxy I9000,
ill try to fix the links btw
update*
i managed to get it into clockwork recovery mode by holding the dam buttons for a solid 5 minutes, after doing this i pressed factory reset, now my phone is stuck saying:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1227807Until I know what version miui and kernal you are trying to flash, it's hard to help. It definately sounds like your phone is soft bricked tho.
Edit* Here are some links you should read up on.

The rom you are trying to flash is for a i500 fascinate. I suggest taking the time to do alot of research before you turn the phone into an expensive paperweight. Read this link!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=921285
K well i ran that rom and it works now but he only problem is i dont have any cell service, do you know how to fix that. I know that you are probably laughing at my mild retardism at this subject but i am a big noob. As for what you said in your previous reply is their an MIUI version for the fascinate from telus because i basically rooted my phone so i could get this rom.
thanks
Update*
i followed the instructions on the link you posted and chose the rom for MIUI I9000 as the one i was going to install but when i istall zip from sd it only says installed correctly and then when i reboot it keeps changing from the sgh-t959d to the galaxy s cyanogen screen
yea your boot looped now. I would run the rom that worked just install the compatible radio and kernal for it and you should get cell service back.
ok thanks i got all my cell service back and i got the MIUI rom to work. Now to just ry to remember all the apps i had
Your welcome...glad you got everything working!

Sorry I'm a noob at all of this. Successfully rooted my phone today thanks to Honsoon2000's excellent tutorial and toolkit. Then I went to install Android Revolution, which appeared to go successfully and then after I flashed the kernel the phone wouldn't load and just hangs at the quietly brilliant screen. I followed Honsoon's tutorial to the T (or so I thought) and everything went perfectly until right at the end when I flashed the kernel. I can make it back to the bootloader screen though it says "failed to load usb master mode". I can still make it into fastboot and recovery mode...tried recovery, and the process seemed to go sucessfully, but the phone still wouldn't load after...tried reinstalling ARHD-- it's still on the sd card and the install procedure still goes off without a hitch, but the phone still won't load. I've searched around and tried everything I can, to no avail. Any help would be muchly appreciated, and I apologize in advance for being a noob wasting people's time.
Edit: For example, when I follow the steps outlined in the FAQ it asks me to enter the command 'fastboot flash boot boot.img' , but when I do it says 'error: cannot load boot.img'.
Edit 2: So I put my boot.img file from Android Revolution into the data directory of the rooting toolkit and was able to complete the above flashboot command. I was also able to install the ROM off my SD card...however the phone still hangs on the Quietly Brilliant screen...I can't even power the phone down...whenever I try it just reboots...frustrating...really hoping someone can help me...cheers.
Before you begin, make sure that the drivers for the One X+ are installed.
Place the boot image being used on the computer's hard drive.
Boot in to recovery and flash the ROM.
When that is done, boot in to bootloader and connect the phone to the PC via a USB cable.
If the phone isn't in fastboot mode already, use the volume keys to highlight the word "fastboot", then press the power button.
Now, there should be text at the bootloader screen that says "Fastboot USB".
Finally, use the toolkit or command line and flash the kernel with the fastboot command.
This should successfully flash the ROM and the kernel. Make sure you full wipe before flashing a new ROM. If you can't seem to get the new ROM booting, the final choice is to relock the bootloader and run a RUU.
Which phone version you do own? International or AT&T / TELUS?
Did you flashed the correspondant boot.img? Did you cleared the cache? ( fastboot erase cache)
I'm trying to run an RUU but it keeps saying the battery isn't charged enough to flash anything...and this after it's been plugged in all day. Oh dear I think my phone might be done...really sucks :/
Also, it won't let me power the phone down-- every time i try it shuts the phone off briefly and then opens back up to the bootloader screen.
Fixed thanks to sarcasticphoenix. Cheers.
OK so I've tried 3 times to flash a new ROM onto my phone (Android Revolution twice and Eleganzia once) using Honsoon's toolkit...I've followed every instruction to the T as far as I can tell and all 3 times the process has gone perfectly right until the end when I flash the kernel...after that when I reboot the phone it just hangs at the Quietly Brilliant screen. I know how to relock the bootloader, flash the custom rom and get my phone back...but I really want to know what I'm doing wrong so I can install a custom ROM. I know I'm using the right ROM for my phone and am wondering what gives. Being driven crazy here...any ideas what's going wrong here would be helpful. BTW on the last attempt right after I finished and the phone hung I went into the boot loader and followed the instructions in the FAQ for fixing a bootloop...still nothing.
Edit: Solved my problem-- I managed to successfully load eleganzia...the only thing i did differently the last time was flash the kernel BEFORE installing the ROM off the SD card.

That's usually what I do first, flash the kernel and then install the zip via recovery

Which kernel are you referring too? Actually there is one or two kernels available but only for the International version, not the AT&T/TELUS which you seem to have.
I strongly suspect that your boot looping was because you didn't flash the boot.img file correctly or not at all. And you don't seem to install the good ROM version for your phone.
Elegancia has two ROM versions one for International and one for AT&T/TELUS users.
ARHD is for International users.
Please read Q12 of the FAQ.

Lol...yeah I don`t know how I missed that. I ended up getting elegancia successfully flashed and loaded so all is well. In retrospect this was a good experience because there`s nothing like having to get yourself unforked from a bad situation to gain an understanding of what`s going on. Cheers.
I have a couple questions and since I`m not allowed to post yet in the elegancia thread I'll try in this thread first:
1) An elegancia question: Is there a way (widget) to toggle data roaming on and off in this ROM?
2) Is there a way to tweak settings (transparent pull down, selection of launcher etc.) without wiping and reflashing the ROM?
3) What are people's favorite launcher for that ROM? I tried Atom but it was just a guess because I hadn't heard of any of them. I like it so far but am curious about the others.
I have a s4 schi545 and used the all in one tool for rooting my phone. It worked successfully, so I ran the install twrp 2.5.0.2 I then went to the cyanogen website and put a rom on my phone in a folder and tried to load it onto my phone. The cm loading screen just loops endlessly and I cannot get my phone back on, can someone please help me I am starting to freak out a bit.
edit:
I got it to open with recovery mode, now is there a way I can have it boot into the 'default os' ?
You flashed cyanogenmod in, so the stock rom is gone (unless you actually performed a nandroid backup which you could restore if you did). You are going to have to mount your phone to a PC and load a different rom to flash.

Did you do a factory reset when loading the new ROM? You can't carry data from one ROM to another. If you really want to go back, as stated above you'll need to use Odin to flash the stock firmware.
You may have to go back to stock if you didn't make the backup and start over.
You can restore your phone to factory here

Thanks alot.
Before I went to sleep last night I rebooted in recovery and did a data wipe, I had no idea you had to clear the entire os and am happy to know the stock os is now gone, I was going to ask that today. What do you guys think of CM 10?
Thank you all so much.
So I updated to the newest software MI5. Went from that and did the root which was sucessfully. I had put on OUDHS Touch CWM-based Recovery thru ODIN which was sucessful as well. After doing all of that, I downloaded Josh Beach's Jellybomb test rom. The steps I did was booted into recovery which is the one above, factory data reset, wiped cache, and wiped dalvik, then flashed the zip. The zip looked to flash ok but when i went to reboot, it just keeps getting stuck at the samsung galaxy note 3 screen, then it will reboot then go to the same screen. Did I do something incorrect? This happened to me on this ROM and the stock MI5 ROM rooted.

so it sounds like i cant flash any custom roms right now? Just odin back to stock and root it and leave it at that?
this probably wont help for this particular problem, or maybe it will.. but for anyone else getting a bootloop..
i just now had a bootloop experience that i got out of.. and here's how it started - i have not rooted my note 3 (i have rooted my galaxy gear though, but i don't think that would affect the note 3).. anyway, i use the nova launcher as my main launcher.. and just before i got stuck in a loop, i had been playing with a new launcher called Themer... i just started it without setting it as default.. then i went back to my main launcher and i noticed that almost all ram was used up and i thought i might as well do a restart as it has been a while... and then it just would not start.. i got to the lock screen image, and then it would restart again and again, with no sound for the animated logo.... it eventually booted up ok, but i have no idea how i got it to work... however, i held down the power button for a while longer and it would "force" a new restart and basically abort the one already in progress, and if i did that, the boot up sound would come back... i continued doing that a couple of items and then it finally worked.
use twrp or phones as of right now dont like cwm recovery...found this out the hard way
odin back to stock rom non root wipe phone using default recovery odin back to stock again root your phone use twrp to flash whatever rom u want

And when flashing make sure to wipe dalvik/caché several times for good measure.

checking in to add that i found a new solution to my own problem here.... it "magically" started the last time just by me keeping on rebooting.. but that's not really a good solution and i don't think it lasts
and for me it didn't... as today i did a new restart, and it got the same stuck in a loop again, however, i followed the first mentioned workaround in this link here and it worked perfectly.. it was really that simple in my case it seems, i have done several restarts now and the bootloop is gone!...
oops, seems i cant post any links for not having enough posts yet...
i'll just add the steps mentioned instead
1 . Remove the battery and the SD card.
2. Put the battery back in and turn on the device.
3. Try Menu > Settings > Wi-Fi > Menu > Advanced and uncheck Always allow scanning.
4. Now you should be able to turn the device off and reinsert the SD card.
5. Boot it up and your problem might be gone
i have no idea how it works though as i personally don't understand the connection between then external sd card and the setting you turn off in the wifi advanced options..
cheers!
So ,im sorry but its a long story. Hopefully someone can help. My note is Rooted Ive been using TWRP. Everything had been fine until 2 days ago. I tried flashing a ROM i found on Goomanger.( I had been running liquid smooth) just wanted to try something different. Anyways it got stuck on a boot loop. Cant remember the name of the Rom. Anyways i was able to get back to recovery, thankfully. But when i wiped and flashed back to liquid smooth it would say optimizing apps, then it would reach a certain number then reboot and star all over again. So then i tried another Rom and the same thing happened. tried flashing back to stock rooted but it would turn on then completely crash and star booting up again. So finally i was able to flash paraandroid 4.1.2 and Gapps, but here is the kicker i have no service (AT&T) says cannot locate network, my IMEI is gone basically the cellular isn't working. Everything else works fine WiFi,apps, camera. Just cant make calls. I really need your guys help please.:crying:
If you have a suggestion please let me know, i hate using an old Iphone

Just odin back to stock. Get a complete factory stock image from the main sticky thread and flash it with Odin and Download Mode. There's a bug on one of the TWRP versions with 4.3-based ROMs that will put it into a bootloop by breaking device reboots. I was unable to flash my way out of the problem and was forced to do a complete reimage which solved all the problems and put me right back to clean-out-of-the-box state, then I reinstalled TWRP (though an older version before the boot loop bug) and re-flashed my custom ROM. The package I used was the stock image and Odin tool all in one .exe, just plug in to download mode and run it and it flashed bootloader, recovery, system, kernel, etc. all back to stock.

Thanks thats what i did, I just basically had to use KIES to use the emergency recovery, then root my phone again. My question is what version of TWRP causes this? cause i used the newest version i could find off GOO. My other concerne is, will it accept or be safe to use a custom ROM? Well i gues ill find out :laugh: THANKS AGAIN!
Everyone with the sgh-i717 is having problems with the latest TWRP and the most stable version is 2.5.0.0. Go with that one or you'll be starting all over again I imagine. And don't just stop at the download link in the OP's, read the thread and find out what's going on. The problems with TWRP have been going on for a while and the development threads have a lot of comments about the latest build causing problems. Good luck! :good:
Hi all, my Prime is stuck at the Asus splash screen out of nowhere! I looked through these q & a, googled, and tried a few simple options before i posted this.I was not trying to flash a new rom or anything like that. I actually hadn't used it for a few days because i'm moving, i charged it up, used it for a few hours, came back later to use it, and the browser froze. No big deal, it does that once every day or two. I hold the power button to restart it and now it just stays at the flash screen. I haven't tried to flash anything in so long i forgot for a bit how to access recovery or what exact rom im using. I can access recovery(twrp 2.2.2.1) and fastboot, i remember unlocking without a problem, and doing the nvflash backup on ics before i believe i flashed a stock jb rom(which i think i'm still on.) I was able to copy my pictures to an external sd card through twrp , and after that i tried to restore a backup, and wiping data and cache but still stuck at the splash screen. Any help would be greatly appreciated, right now im going to look through and see if i can find the stock jb rom, or lookup fastboot guides or something. Thanks for any help!
I flashed this rom and got it up and running. I love this forum! w00t http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1927494
