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

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

Flashing through CWM help!! (solved)

Hi there, I just started flashing a couple months ago and all is great. When I first started flashing I used cwm to flash a ROM. I would clear data then clear cache then afterwards flash the ROM and would work flawlessly.
Now as I try to do that (trying to flash a brand new ROM), Everytime I try to cleardata or cache on cwm my phone would freeze there, therefore I couldn't properly set up my phone for a new ROM.
Any ideas or solution I can do to fix this? Greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

Leaked LSJ Custom ROM stuck at Boot Logo

I downloaded one of the leaked custom roms of LSJ (Simplistic and Wanamlite). I flashed it, but the problem is it gets stuck with the boot logo. What seems to be the problem here? I have wiped everything. From data to cache. I came from CM10 nightlies, dorimanx kernel.
All replies will be much appreciated.
I believe the mask might be the problem because jb is new file structure. It may strip all mods from your phone.
Yu may have to wait until the offical version has been out for a while before flashing it.

Quite a possibility that the file you have download it may be corrupted so download it once again and check the md5 checksum and then flash it.. Also don't forget to wipe data and cache partition

The file was not corrupt because if it was corrupt, I cannot open it via winrar. Quite strange. I have also did a full wipe in data and cache.

its disappearing after few hours of booting phone or letting it away
no sound in music , no sound in viber , no sound in vid
i reflashed but nothing happened

edit:: it doesnt work again unless i reboot
Start from the basics back up your apps and reinstall the Rom and kernel.
Maybe it's a app you have installed that's causing the problem, so install them one at a time if the above options fails

that is a .tar file buddy. You can't flash it thriugh recovery. you have to put your mobile into download mode , connect to pc via uab. start desktop odin, select pda and then CWMtouch.tar file and hit start. then once you see the pass, it is done.

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:

Have a look over here perhaps:

If you are very uncertain or very new to placing Roms, checkout the reviews before installing.

You can find the zip here for the INTL Samsung Galaxy S2 (Being the GT-I9100): http: //d-h.st/rUc WizzedKAT_v1.2.zip - 370.36 MB
Make sure you have the newest CWM or comparable (6.0.4.5 or higher)
Make sure you know what you are doing
Hmm.. Okay thanks for the info.
How about the SIV Series v2.05-1.ZIP?
By the way what is CWM?
Im running in CWM 6.0.3.2 >.< how can I up grade it to .4.5?
