SO I retartedly tried to restore from a nandroid after changing AOKP versions, and now even though I have wiped everything and done droidstyle's guide again, I install my THS Build 2 ICS ROM, and after I installed it, my phone just keeps booting into recovery, when I click "reboot system now" it just reboots into recovery. Any suggestions?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Edit: After trying a couple other things, I decided to install AOKP Milestone 6, and then GApps, and voila, it booted :?
You should try THS build 1.

Hello, I'm having a bit of an issue here I can't install a ROM after trying CM10.1.
I was using CM10, up until awhile, when I deiced to give CM 10.1 a try (Alpha build I'm aware of the risks).
I have installed CM10.1 using Rom Manager Premium. The installation progress went smooth without any errors, before installing I've made a backup of my current ROM.
Once CM10.1 finished optimizing application it started giving errors, that it can't load up Setup Wizard stopped from working, I have rebooted into CMW, wiped Dalvik cache and user data, I have booted up again, and was still was getting the same error, so I decided to restore my previous ROM.
But when I have booted up into CWM, I have discovered that the backup I made isn't there, not on the Internal memory and not on the SD card.
The issue I'm having is that I can't instal CM10 back, when ever I try to install CM10 ROM ZIP using CMW from external SD I get an error (Status 7)
Is there any ODIN CM10 installation route?
Thank you!
Update 1:
I have manged to flash The Official Rom, But it can't boot up, it seems like it's stock on the animation screen, the animation moves, but doesn't boot up. What might be the issue?
Update 2:
Solved the problem by wiping use data, and resting it to factory settings.
Update 3:
Got it fixed, everything is running like it used to be. Shame that I lost all my personal DATA, specially the DICM folder :/
So was running an old version of PA 2.16 by Th3Bill and I kept having a problem where Apollo would crash. So I decided I was going to do a clean install of the newest version of PA 2.99 Final. Verify the MD5 and install with the guide on his page here: http://th3bill.com/?page_id=150
Making sure I have the proper CWM Recovery and Aroma Prep installed. At first it took the ROM, but it kept hanging a few seconds after boot and then rebooting infinitely. Tried doing a complete wipe and starting the process over. Now it CWM Recovery locks up and the screen glitches out during the ROM install at 40%. I tried the CM10 ROM it does the same thing. I tried to restore my backup of PA 2.16 and it took the files, but it just looped endlessly. Lastly I tried restoring a backup of a GB ROM and that booted and worked perfectly, but I'd prefer to get back on JB.
Anyone know what could be wrong and where I should start?
So up until today I was running this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1912596
It was getting really buggy, so I decided to update to the latest CM10.1 nightly. I updated safestrap to the latest version, and I saw that on the changelog for the CM nightlies that the rom could be installed on any slot. For some reason, there was no rom slot 1, even though that's what I had the current rom installed on. I made a backup of the stock rom slot, wiped system/cache/factory reset, and installed CM 10.1 on the stock slot. That didn't boot up. So I tried to restore my backup. My backup of my current rom didn't show up, but the initial stock rom backup that I made when I first rooted the phone showed up, so i wiped everything again and tried to boot from that. On that, the boot animation showed up and went through, but it sat there for a few minutes without booting, so I did a hard reset and went back into recovery. I then made a romslot-1, wiped for precaution, then tried to install the cm nightly. The install went fine, but when I try to boot, the phone just vibrates initially like it's going to boot up, but there is no boot animation or anything on the screen, and it just sits there. Is there anything I can do to get this thing up and running again? I am not at the least opposed to returning it to stock, but I'm not sure if I need to restore to stock ICS or JB, since I'm pretty sure the rom I had running was using the ICS kernel. Here's the link to the rom I just tried to install: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39330661&highlight=boot#post39330661
Any help on the matter would be greatly appreciated.
I have a sch-i500 that is rooted with cwm working.
I am very interested in running liquid smooth v 2.9 found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2245120
so I did a format, wiped the cache and davlik. when I installed the zip from external sd card the phone immediately gave me a screen for CWM v 6.0.3.3.
I can still navigate and restore old back ups but the phone does not go past the Samsung logo on the boot screen. Any advice is appreciated.
I was previously running stock 2.3.5 E09 if that helps

Oh so close.
When coming from 2.3.x ROM you will need to flash the rom (liquid: or other 4.2.x) you will need to flash 2 more times...
The 1st flash get you into the new recovery only,,, as you found out.
2nd flash will pop up with an error message about incompatible partition and telling you to re-flash again,,,
So 3rd flash actually installs your new ROM
Then install a current/compatible Google gapps
.
Enjoy

Thank you, I am getting closer.
still on the second and third flash of the rom I get a satus 7 error which I think is a bootloader issue.
I have flashed the GBbootloader.tar through odid to no avail and am following Section:4 How to flash any ICS 4.0.x & 4.x.x JellyBean based rom

what does the error say besides status 7?
did you odin the CWM4 fixed for cm7 then install the ROM 3 times?
can you get a pic up for us to see?
just to be sure......using odin, I repartitioned with the pit, and flashed a E03 rom. rebooted the phone fine.
flashed the CWM4 fix for 7 and redid the GB bootloaders as well.
went into recovery and factory reset, wiped cache, and dalvik.
installed liquid-JB-v2.7-Official-fascinatemtd.zip this time first time took me directly to clockwork where I flashed again. prompted with install from sdcard complete. repeated and got same message.
factory reset, wipe, wipe and flashed gapps. Everything seems to have worked this time with the v2.7Official instead of 2.9. I will play with this for just a bit and probably try it again tonight with a fresh downloaded copy of v2.9. I really do appreciate your assistance and help and I would not have gotten this far without the forum.
update:
flawless installation of v2.9 since 2.7 was already installed. (installed via cloclwork mod recovery)
It was most likely an operator error that prevented me from installing 2.9 after E03. But I don't see the benefit of going back to recreate why it didn't work. Thanks again all is good and right.
I've been having a problem getting any 4.3 ROM to boot after the initial boot. I've seen a few other people with the same problem and I can't figure out a fix. Thought I'd ask the general Q&A.
I've used Beanstalk and Carbon (great ROMs) a few carbon 4.3 nightlies and Beanstalk 4.3.00. I installed their 4.3 builds (after checking sums to verify download) flash gapps, wipe cahce/dalvik and boot up. Set up goes great and rom runs great. but even without installing any other apps, using no backups or anything if I reboot it sticks on samsung screen and can't get past it. Every time, I even rebooted without finishing setup and wouldnt advance past samsung.
I even flashed 4.3 rom and gapps, let it reinstall apps from market then booted to recovery and made a backup. Then could'nt reboot. But if I wipe and restore the backup it will boot fine the 1 time, but again any attempts to reboot stick on samsung screen. Wiping cache/dalvik from recovery does not help, fix permissions from recovery does not help.
Anybody have this problem and find a fix?
Ok, I tried slim bean beta 2, no luck, tried ktoons kernel, no luck. Guess I'm staying with 4.2.2 until there is some movement on this issue.
