I've had CM9 installed on my GT-I9100 for a while now, and was upgrading the Nightlies for a bit, but haven't done for a few months. I decided it's time to finally upgrade my CM9 so I downloaded the latest Nightly.
I copied it onto my phone, and went into CWM 5.5.0.4
I cleared the Cache Partition and the Dalvik Cache and then installed the ROM. I then restarted CWM and fixed permissions and then rebooted my phone, however once I do this, it just hangs on the SGS2 Loading screen with the yellow triangle. Is there anyway to fix this at all so I can update my CM9? I also have the latest Google Apps downloaded but have not installed them yet.
The details in the about phone section are:
Baseband Version - I19100XXLPH
Kernel Version - 3.0.15-I19100XXLP6-CL72050 [email protected] #3
CM9 Version - 9-20120318-NIGHTLY-galaxys2
Build Number - IML74K
are you still on boot screen?
if you have backed up apps, reflash after a wipe data factory reset,
I'm trying to avoid a factory wipe if possible. If not, then I'll do it. Luckily I always do a CWM backup before upgrading so I have my phone back still.
try with only wipe cache and dalvik before and after flashing..
still no hope...then backup apps with TB do factory reset.
Flash cm9 again and nothing else. If that doesn't work then flash latest siyah. That should do it.

After messing around with a few of your ideas, i managed to get it working!
Thanks!

Hi Friends,
Model Number - GT-P7510
I recently rooted and installed the CM9 ICS nightly rom using the noob video instructions (This included rooting with Odin, installing CMW recovery 4.0.0.4, then I flashed the ROM cm-9-20120624 Nightly and finally flashed GAPPS-ics).
I over clocked using the CM9 settings and everything worked perfectly for about a week, it was great. Then it just crashed while I was reading my email and began to bootloop. After reading for similar errors I rebooted to recovery and tried wiped the cache and dalvic cache, I wiped data and factory reset several times but nothing worked, always the same bootloop. I re flashed the same ROM and still nothing, after a while the boot screen would simply freeze instead of bootloop.
Then I connected to my PC, and did this to no avail. In fact it simply added to the problem by adding a yellow warning triangle while attempting to boot so I did the Oden thing again like the first time I rooted however I installed CMW version 5.5.0.4 instead thinking it might help but it hasn't.
One last point, when I attempt to wipe data/factory reset the tablet seems to freeze and attempt to reboot rather than say something like "success" as it would during a cache wipe. This maybe normal or it maybe the problem! who knows?
On that point, I would be very grateful if some of you could help get me to the point when my PC recognises the tablet so I can reflash a new ROM.
Thanks in advance,
Karl
I once got the same problem. The only thing that helped was to flash back the stock rom via Odin with the pit file. And don't forget to do a hard reset after flashing the rom. I'll just stick to the stock rom until the official update is getting released.

Questions go in the Q&A section
I think the best way is still to do factory reset, go back to the stock ROM first and try custom HC ROM until the official ICS is released.
Hi Everyone,
I keep getting a boot-loop after installing ANY custom ROM. I factory wipe, clear cache and dalvik cache, THEN i install the zip and gapps, then I factotry wipe, clear cache and dalvik cache AGAIN. It loads the boot screen, whether its CM10 or ParanoidAndroid, and then at the "welcome" screen, it reboots after 2 seconds. It just keeps looping.....any ideas?
try formatting system before flashing
just format system or cache and data as well? and do I do that before I wipe or after i wipe everything?
format system/data/cache, then flash
ok, I only did system and cache, and it still is rebooting constantly, i'll try it with formatting data.
which Rom are you trying to install?

Paranoid Android.
Wrong gapps version??
I tried doing it without gapps, I'm still getting a restart after everytime I get the lock screen on EVERY ROM i try to install....don't know what the problem is with my phone, it's happening with EVERY ROM. Is it because my baseband/firmware stuff isn't uniform?
Product Code: GT-I9300RWD(INU) (India i think)
PDA: I9300XXBLH1
Phone: I9300XXLFB
CSC: I9300ODDBLG2
Download the ROM AGAIN and this time download the OLDER version and keep your eyes on the download especially you are downloading from chrome. sometimes the problem is in the downloaded rom its self. and than make a factory Reset and then install the rom and than factory reset again than reboot the phone. Hope it works. I just did it yesterday. I also had boot loop. I tried to restore backup, install the newer ROM nothing worked. than I tried that and it worked....
what do you mean download again and download the older version? I've tried every combination of factory reset/wipe/dalvik cache/reset/install/reset/cache/dalvik, etc....

Download the ROM from internet again. this time try the older version of the ROM that you want to install.
EXAMPLE: I wanted to install Omega v26.1 and I went to boot loop. I tried everything to flash the newer version, I also tried to restore the nandroid backup. nothing worked. so I downloaded Omega V13 and than I did factory reset than I installed omega v13. Worked like charm.
I hope it will work for you too...
Anyone else have problems flashing to a 4.3 ROM? (I know some people do because I've searched.)
No matter what ROM it is, if it is 4.3 it will always fail to reboot a second time after it has been flashed.
Currently on CleanROM ACE 4.9 (4.1.2) with TWRP 2.6.0.1
I've tried to go to CM10.2 and it would reboot initially but then hang on the Note II logo if I tried to reboot.
I've tried to go to Paranoid Android.. same thing.
I've tried to go to PAC-man.. same thing.
I've tried flashing from the stock 4.1.2 ROM and the same thing happens.
I've followed every instruction I could find including this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2423057
I do a factory reset, format data, flash ROM, wipe caches, flash gapps, wipe caches, reboot. It will boot fine from TWRP and load everything normally. Then, if I reboot or power off the device, it will hang on the Note II screen and I have to nandroid back to my previous ROM.
Any insight as to why this is happening? I haven't been able to find anything besides some random instructions for wiping/flashing (which I've linked). These ROMs look great and I'd really like to move to 4.3, but I cannot figure out what the problem is.

First time installing CyanogenMod 10.2 to your Galaxy Note 2 I605, or coming from another ROM:
- Read known issues ans FAQs
- Flash the latest official ClockworkMod-Recovery
- Copy GApps and CM10.2 ZIPs to your SDCard
- Boot into Recovery
- Flash CM10.2 zip from SDCard
- Flash GApps zip from SDCard
- DO A DATA WIPE / FACTORY RESET (otherwise your device will be stuck at boot)
- Reboot
- Don't restore system data using Titanium Backup!
- Restoring Apps + Data might cause problems and is not recommended, avoid it if possible!
read the OP for CM 10.2 next time....
First - clockworkmod not twrp for 4.3 usually fixes things
Second - do a factory reset AFTER installing
Third - Dont restore apps with TiBu going to 4.3
Next time be truthful when you say you read and searched.
I'm hoping someone can help me. I've been through a bunch of ROMs over the holidays and I can't shake a problem I currently have - whenever I flash a new ROM (via CWM) I'm getting the Samsung Keyboard taking up 0.89TB - leaving me with only 1.27GB of free space on a clean install. This is across Nephilim, N3BULA, and beans' "official" 4.3.
To recap what I've done:
Flashed the Beans leak (using twrp) as soon as that came out - did the broadband etc, it was working but was giving me resets.
Dirty flashed the Beans official (using CWM that time) when that came out since I was on holiday and didn't want to redo all apps
That worked well for a while with occasional restarts until one day it restarted and was like a factory reset.
CWM a fresh "Official" - worked great.
CWM over to Nephilim - that was working, then did a Nandroid in CWM to sdcard1
CWM over to N3BULA - then did a Nandroid in CWM again to sdcard1
Tried to Nandroid restore back to Nephilim but got an error on data
CWM back to Nephilim - doing the normal wipe cache, dalvik, factory - and started to install apps
That's when I ran out of space and first noticed that Samsung Keyboard was taking up .89TB. That was not the case when I was on Beans "Official" before my random factory reset. Since then I've tried all these things to fix it, none of which have worked:
CWM wiped and reinstalled Nephilim - no go
CWM Nandroid restore to N3BULA - same error on 'data'
CWM flashed over to N3BULA after wiping and reseting
CWM flashed back to Beans
Deleted the CWM backups since they weren't helping, factory reset, wipe cache
Odin 3.09 back to Root66 stock VRALJB 4.1.1 12/2/12 and PIT - although I couldn't boot in to this ... not sure if its because I didn't change baseband - although Odin said pass
Flashed latest Philz CWM while I was at it, then Philz CWM to Nephilim
And that's where I am. In ES File Explorer and a Disk Analyst and they don't find any large files that could be eating up all my space.
Can anyone clue me in as to what I did wrong or how to fix it? Thanks!!!
Switched to TWRP and wiped everything and it finally fixed it.
so ive been out of the loop for a while (2-3 years) but decided to updated my old omega v34, boeflla kernel jellybean s3 to the one in my sig (essentially blisspop+boeflla 4 alpha 13+gapps lollipop).
i updated my boot manager to twrp as suggested. rebooted. i did a format data, folowed by delvik cache and cache wipe, then a system wipe. i then installed the rom and gapps, then rebooted. i was still on the old kernel at this point.
as i rebooted i experienced some hanging, and then after taking off the battery and rebooting and finishing the setup process, i rebooted and installed the latest lollipop boeffla kernel. i still got some hanging so i full wiped again and repeated the process of installing the rom/gapps. my modem as remained the same and i have not updated it since last i did 2012.
as of now, i am still experiencing some freezes, but not as frequent as before and some slowdown. is there something that i messed up or forgot to do in the installation? any help is greatly appreciated.
@rab1412000412:
1. TWRP is a recocery, not a bootloader.
2. Maybe, you should update your firmware 1st. What modem is installed?
ddlj1 from 2012. i changed my gapps and its much more stable now.
@rab1412000: then you had old 4.1-firmware and can be happy, that LP-ROM didn't refresh your modem. I recommend to go back to your old firmware. Make sure, that IMEI and net access are ok. Then update via KIES, OTA or Odin to newest 4.3. Backup this version and flash any ROM you want.
