i've been using cyanoace.. a really good rom by behradgh for a few months now. suddenly my phone goes into a bootloop. is there any way of rectifying this without reflashing because i dont have a recent nandroid backup? any inputs are greatly appreciated !!
Try reflash or use adb logcat to unveil why it not boots

Try CM7.2 by FAT or vo 1
Or official CM7 (may have bugs)

thanks for the input guys!
@spacecaker : could you please elaborate on adb logcat.. am pretty much a noob !
@scoffyburito : you read my mind !
@pvrx : any reviews about the official cm7 ? read that they just started official support.
but is there any solution besides reflashing cm7 again ? forgot to take a nandroid backup.. loads of stuff in my phone that i dont want to lose..

You shouldn't lose any data when reflashing

Make a nan-droid backup fom recovery. Wipe everything. Flash new CM7. I recommend CM7.2 by FAT. Go to recovery -> backup and restore -> advanced restore -> restore data

Yes,but remember not to use this method in the future when you are flashing stock over cm as it wont work coz cm is a different build.

It probably wont go into a bootloop if you just restore data. No harm in trying.

Hi: I've been enjoying using the CyanogenMod for a couple of months now and love it. Thanks to all who created it and continue to improve it.
I simply want to upgrade to the latest stable version. Here's what I "think" I need to do. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could verify the same.
1) put zipped flash onto root of SD Card
2) Backup phone using Titanium Backup
3) Power off phone and choose "recovery" shut-down option
4) Choose zipped flash from sdcard
5) Wait for flash to complete
The other options on the reboot menu include among other things: Wipe, Mounts, Other. I've read in other post that it's a good idea to wipe dalvick-cache. Should I do so - and am I missing anything else?
If there's already a thread out there that walks one through these steps, I was unable to find it - but would appreciate being pointed to the same.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Since you are just upgrading from earlier cm7 rom, you just need to wipe cache and dalvik cache, nothing else

Unless you are updating from a previous version of CM, you should always do a full wipe. Take backups of your sms, contacts, etc.

If you are goin' from froyo or other ROM you have to wipe ALL. It means Data (format system)/Cache/Dalvik Cache/BattStats . If you are goin' from earlier CM7 then wipe Cache/Dalvik cache/battstats.

Is there any other way to backup and restore my rom?

No, complete backup can be done only via CWM recovery. You can try mounting system first and then backup again. If that doesn't work then try re-flashing the rom and using stable version of CWM recovery (v4.0.0.9)
Make sure you have enough free space on your SD card. 300MB-1GB
Depends on the ROM you are using and no. of system apps and other stuff.
Sent from my GT-S5830 using iOS ROM
Use CWM recovery v4.0.0.9 or 5.0.2.6. It has worked for me.

Greetings XDA-World.
Well, Firstly, id like to mention that today is my first day as a registered member of xda. And Yeah, im just 15 so you can call me a noob or inexperienced, i dont mind.
Well Anyway, before i flashed CyanogenMod 7.2 RCO by vo-1, I took two backups of the original stock firmware, one using CWM 4.0.0.9 and the other using CWM 5.0.2.6. However, i decided to go back on stock using the backups but failed, and my Ace is stuck on bootloops. If someone could help me get these backups to work, i would be really grateful.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
[Admins im sorry ive posted in the wrong place or wrong method ot whatsoever, im a newbie]
Thanks,
UsmanJ

You cannot restore Stock ROM's backups using CWM. If your stock rom was on ext4 filesystem then it could have been possible. But, I think you made a backup of a stock ROM and not a custom ROM based on Stock ROM. Lol, a bit confusing but you cant restore that backup as far as my experience says.

Thanks brother. Yes, i could guess that because most custom rom format the system partition as ext4 because it occupies less place. Isnt it possible that we format the System partition in a way tht is supports the initial backup?
Sorry if im too newb.

Ney. Cuz the original backup was taken on a rfs filesystem. You can try one thing. Flash stock rom via odin, root your ace, install ClockWorkMod 5.0.2.6 and then try restoring that backup. Not really sure if this will help but there's no harm in trying

Hello guy im having some issues installing omega v12 to my gs3 my phone is GT-I9300 model and rooted, I downloaded the room to my internal sdcard and install it via cwm, the installation secced every time but when it reboot it gets stuck at samsung logo and returns to recovery, whats wrong with my phone? or what am I doing wrong?
Anyone pls.!!!!!:crying::crying::crying::crying:
Have you wiped it before flashing the Rom e.g. factory reset wiped cache and delvik cache also they flashing it twice straight after each other
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
There should be no need to install it twice in a row. Try what was first suggested.. when in recovery, wipe data/ factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, flash ROM... reboot.
Did you make a nandroid backup before flashing?

Bummer. Yeah flash another ROM if you have it on your SD card.. try to boot into something. If it was a bad DL of the omega rom it shouldn't flash, and the fact that your getting successful is weird
Next step is maybe pushing a files onto your phone via ADB and try to flash again. You got recovery so your not too bad off

Go into recovery and look for mounts and storage. Go into that and format data and cache. Come out of that and go into advanced and wipe cache there too. Reboot.
If that don't work reflash the rom and gapps. If that don't work flash stock with Odin. Standard stuff really. :thumbup:
