I installed the latest version of RemICS by using TWRM. (First deleted the caches and did that afterwards as well.)
Now the phone is still on the ReMICS - UX bootscreen, already for quite a long time. How long does this usually take the first time after flashing? We are talking about 15 minutes already. The bootscreen is still animated and moving and not frozen. Any thoughts on this?
Or is it impossible to succefully flash via TWRM?
Maybe a bad flash. Go back into recovery, clear data and cache, then reflash the ROM.
It that doesn't work download the file again and flash it.

I flashed it again. deleted the caches AND did a reset to factory defaults, which I thought you did anyway when deleting the caches and system files. That solved the issue for me. Thanks for the reply.

Hey All,
I had been having troubles with 4.0.3 multi-dpi, so I thought I'd flash Saurom. I flashed this, but upon reboot, I got stuck at the samsung screen. It never went past there, just sat there forever. So, I went back into cwm (holding down vol up/vol down/power), and wiped everything again, and tried to flash saurom again, but same thing happened.
I then tried to flash back to 4.0.3 multi-dpi, with same results. I can get into CWM just fine, but it seems any rom I flash hangs at the samsung boot screen.
Does anyone have any ideas? Right now I'm completely down :/
Thanks in advance for any assistance,
Sebastian
Hi sounds like a bad kernel flash.i would go into cwm, do the usually wipes, go to mounts and storage. Format data. Format system. Format cache only. Pull battery. Install any of the odin install Roms through download mode, That should fix your problem. Then you can start over and flash whatever Rom you want

You should restore the latest good backup you created before you flashed whatever is giving you problems.

Just a reminder, when you go to mounts and storage, do not fformat sd storage, this will wipe everything in your memory of your phone

A backup restore should do the trick.

Worse comes to worse you can flash stock Odin. If you one clicked for ICS, remember to flash bootloader first
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
From my gathering, Saurom & ICS 4.0.3 DPI are incompatible. Meaning you can't flash one on top of the other without doing a full wipe data/factory reset. Having said that, I think the best move then would be to flash back to stock via ODIN, install cwm, redownload whatever ROM to your ex sd card, mount system & data then re-flash.

I "believe" all you need to flash through Odin is the GB bootloader, then you can flash GB roms, the ICS bootloader is what causes the hang up with ROM incompatibilities

Be sure the ROM has the radio load and remember a Nandroid does not flash the radio load. That has to be done manually.

I'm not very familiar with Saurom but from what I've read I think that's correct. ICS needs a clean slate to operate from is all I was saying.
I am at a lose for what to do here.
I re installed peach sunrise on my Rooted Samsung Exhibit 2 to sell.
Did everything I had done before, but this time it is stuck in boot loop.
I've wiped cache, rom, dalvik, cache/dalvik, and data as someone told me to do.
Then re installed the rom.
Restart it up and bam boot look once again.
I've done this a million times..
HELP ME!
Perhaps I'm just doing it wrong? I haven't a clue. Anyone know how to fix this right now?
It can't be this hard..
Download the stock rom of your phone, wipe your whole phone, flash the stock rom via odin on pc while your device is connected to it.
Once installed wipe all your caches and restart the phone.
Now install the custom rom you wanted.
I hope this helps!
Sincerely,
Rareme.

This is my first time trying to install this I have a Samsung galaxy s2 T989 And I'm pretty sure I've done it right. I factory wiped it, cleared the cache and the cleared the cache in advanced settings. It's been atlesst over 10min and its still on the blue circle just spinning around.
Can someone please help me?
When I installed cm10.2 for the first time mine done that. Best bet and worked for me is do a battery pull and reboot. If that don't push you past the spinning circle which I ran across you should reinstall the ROM again and it should boot up just fine. Hope this helps

You've bootlooped it. The T989 is a pain when flashing custom ROM's because the custom recovery's built in wipe doesn't quite work for it.
Keep this ZIP handy as you'll be needing to run it every single time you need to wipe data/cache and dalvik. Don't ever ever use any other means of wiping aside from this one until this issue is fixed. I've been doing this for a while and have flashed upwards of 20 ROM's on my T989 alone.
It's called Darkside Super Wipe.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1477955
So, just put that ZIP on your SD card, along with your custom ROM and appropriate Gapps. Flash Darkside first (always) then flash ROM then Gapps. Then reboot and problem solved!!
Good luck!! :highfive:
So after putting that in my sd card. Install that and gapps and cm10.2?

Yup, install Darkside Super Wipe first, then install the ROM zip then Gapps. Then reboot!
Should I factory reset and clear caches first or no?

Nope, just run the Darkside Super Wipe and it'll erase all /system, /data and /cache partitions. And like the thread says, it won't wipe your SD card or EMMC.
Just make sure you don't leave the recovery without flashing the ROM and Gapps
Also, you should get in the habit of making backups. You can make them from CWM or TWRP's custom recovery.
Titanium backup is an application on the Google Play store that you should look into as well my friend.

Very finicky phone for customs. On mine I can get no ROM to fully load other than the stock Koodo 4.04, and CM 10.0 I flashed the latest radio for JB, darkside super wipe, flash custom rom, flash gapps, wipe dalvik. The same process for every ROM i try... still no success, 10.2 stays at boot. Dirty Unicorns starts boot, goes through the "optimizing apps" stage gets to the "starting apps" and reboots, lather, rinse, repeat. I've tried a few others, AOKP and some others. Still only Koodo 4.04 and CM 10.0 will fully boot. Not even the stock T-mobile 4.03 will boot (came with phone). Going to give JMT a shot, it looks pretty
Doesn't boot stuck in reboot. Tried fastboot erase cache still no help.
Try reflash in recovery. If still no boot then you should try restoring a backup, or download the rom again and push it to your phone through adb push and then try flashing again. It may have been a bad download. When you reflash factory reset (this does not clear the virtual SD card) wipe the system, then install the rom, then wipe dalvik and cache and see if you can get it to boot.

I wasn't really stuck been though this with other roms just meant that's far as I could get flashing the rom. I tried reflashing clean and dirty with same result. I guess it is a bad download I'll try again later. It took 6 hours then failed at 98% first time on phone, and finally on computer got in about 4 hours. Thanks for the advice though.
I am interested in the rom too. But the download times are crazy. Still haven't got a good download yet.

The same problem. They said 'You should flash custom recovery' that they recommended in their thread but I not try it yet.
