Yesterday i installed Kaosgingerbread rom to my eris and it worked sucessfully...but i found out that all of my apps are gone EVEN MY APP MARKET the only app i have is superuser so now there is no market to get rom manager.! WHAT DO I DO?! i need help asap please if you are reading this help me an and if anyone knows what to do reply or something!!!!!!!!!!! thank you so much//// o yea and also my messeging works but when i try to add a gmail account it wont load successfully to..
You need to find the appropriate gapps zip file and flash it along with the new ROM to get market back. Flashing a new ROM will almost always delete everything on the phone.
OK i am kind of new to this sorrry for being a pain in the butt but can you explain it more because i really like the rom and all but besides the fact that i dont have the marketplace it sucks...so if its possible can you explain step by step and if not would it be possible to contact you through something like xbox or maybe email?

Most, but not all of the time anymore when you flash new ROMs you have to flash the GAPPs (Google Apps) package immediately after flashing the ROM, before you reboot into the ROM. Otherwise things like Market and GMail aren't there and you have a crippled phone.
You have to start over from scratch from recovery doing a factory reset/data and cache wipe and then flash the ROM and then the GAPPs.
Enjoy!!!

Not really true. When i flashed my rom I reboot to homescreen, then flash gapps from recovery. No need to reflash the rom.

AFAIK, this advise given by most of the devs in their ROM threads was based on some reports, from time to time, that people who hadn't flashed the GAPPs before booting the ROM, and flashing it after caused their phones to not behave correctly. Flashing it immediately eliminates any possibility that someone might have a problem with that particular part of it, so it's wiser to be cautious and just give the blanket advise to do it immediately than to chance that with some ROMs or some phones, problems might arise.
yea well.. anyone wanna post a tut. on how to do this or something

Download the gapps file from kaos thread. Place gapps zip along with the Rom zip to the root of your sd card. Reboot into recovery. Wipe/factory reset. Wipe dalvik. Flash Rom. Flash gapps. Reboot. Enoy.
That is very true. You'll get the jist of things when u flash roms more often
wait i havent done anything yet but is there a way to restore my phone just back to factory settings?

Reboot both devices (with the phone unplugged from the computer to start with) and try again. Also, you can mount the SD card via USB directly from Amon RA or Clockwork Mod Recovery. Something like Mount USB-MS in Amon. In Clockwork Mod, it's in the partitions menu.
When i bought the player which is the 4.0 us player i rooted it and put steves kernel on it thats it. Today my wife said it was bootlooping so i looked at it and sure enough it is. Checked the memory and there is nothing on it. So i download a new rom put it on and wipe then install and it is still bootlooping the original logo even though the new rom has a different boot screen.

Yes people were experiencing bootloops with steve's 3.0. Try installing the klin's R3 custom kernel or Dark_balor's terra silent.
When i installed the kernel it was back in December and it has been working just fine untill today. Still think it is kernel?
You didn't make a cwm nandroid backup, did you? Because that is what bootlooped mine using Steve's. All I did to solve it is: flashed my own backup, that turned out to be no good, and ended in a full brick (epic facepalm, I know!). Then I flashed kwipper's recovery rom found in the development. After a data/cache wipe, it worked fine. Hope you figure it out!

That depends of the kernel's version. Also has your wife do something wrong?
ok just flashed new kernel then tried 2 different roms with no luck it flashed the kernel fine but the roms will not flash and when i check the mem card it is empty other than my rom zips and .androidsecure which is an empty folder.

Well you can always use the full recovery method to get back to normal (note that you will lose all your data. Not on the sdcard though but all of your settings and apps.)
well iv already wiped so everything is gone anyway im not sure how you do the full recovery? I have no nand so if that is what your talking about that is out of the question. Found fixing bootloop which has recovery file so im gonna try that.

It seems that you already have an android device before however samsung devices are different from other android devices (or maybe you did have a samsung device too.). They use odin/heimdall flashing with .tar/.img/.rfs files. The recovery method I talk about is at that link:

No problem. Also I recommend using either klin's kernel or terra silent.
ya just did a nand and flashed new kernel and now changing roms.
I recently updated to the most recent version of paranoid android with a clean install (full wipe) and I'm experiencing multiple bugs. There's no lock screen when I turn the screen on and the home key doesn't work at all, apart from waking the phone up (can't exit apps with it or long press for recent apps). I'm receiving no notifications in my task bar and no incoming call alerts, although the notifications and calls are working in the background. Plus the stock browser won't start up.
The strangest thing is ...after returning to stock sammy rom all these bugs are gone but when I flash cm10 or aokp based rom back, all these same bugs come back regardless of what kernel I use (latest siyah or cm10 kernel).
All system settings are unchanged from default values so these bugs aren't setting related. I've done multiple full wipes with totally clean installs but, I'm still greeted with these bugs upon booting. Does anyone have the slightest idea why I'm plagued by these issues ...the phone is pretty unusable at the moment with these problems. No home key means so many extra taps on the screen and a lot of extra time wasted and I'm missing all my calls and texts because of no notifications. Please if anyone knows how to fix this ....it'll be much appreciated!!
Bumping cause I'm kinda desperate for some help.
Has no one experienced this kind of behaviour on their GSII? I'm really at a loss as to how to fix this. I've been flashing roms on my GSII for over a year now and never heard or seen anything like this before. I really can't face going back to sammy rom which seems to be the only thing to fix this.
please list all the steps you took when you flashed CM10/paranoid
Hi and thanks for the reply. All the relevent steps I took in CWM were
1 Wiped data/Factory Reset
2 Wiped Cache
3 Wiped Dalvik Cache
4 Ran a kernel cleaning script
5 Installed PA v2.17
6 Installed gaps
7 Fixed permissions
It's just really weird how these bugs are happening on both aokp (official) and PA, so it's obviously nothing to do with the roms. Just can't figure out what the problem is at all. I'm going to try the Super Nexus rom soon to see if that's any different.

Hi ...I tried the procedure exactly as you instructed but the problem persist. However ...a couple of times during the procedure I saw that cwm was having problems mounting the sdcard. "fail mounting sdcard" I think. I'm not sure whether its referring to internal or external. I don't have an external inserted at the moment anyhow. If it refers to internal sd then maybe the answer to my problem can be found there?

That was the cause of the problem.
you need to first flash either Custom Stock based ICS Rom via CWM recovery, or flash an unmodified Stock firmware via Odin before flashing an Aosp ICS or Jelly bean ROM.
So please flash stock ICS firmware now.
Problem solved.

OK will download ICS Stock rom right away ....thanks alot for your help and patience. Guys like you really make the difference in this community, I really can't thank you enough. I'll report back as soon as I'm done.
No luck thus far ...I installed NeatRomLight on which the problems weren't present but as soon as I flashed back to PA the problems were back. I tried with the same instructions you gave in the earlier post with reboot of recovery and such. This really is a strange one. What confuses me most is the fact that everything works fine with stock sammy or modded sammy but, thats the last thing I want to go back to after using aosp/cm based roms for the last 6 months.
Maybe if I download stock unmodified rom eh? Well it can't hurt to try anyways.
Were you trying to install the latest version of PA on siyah? That doesn't work. Right now PA 2.17 and above will only run on the CM10 kernel..same goes for latest pure aokp builds I think.
If you want to stick to siyah and PA, download PA 2.16. It should work.

First of all: I have had my S II water damaged some months ago. It works fine that far (exept that the sensor keys are dead). Not sure if there is some other hardware malfunctioning...
Currently im running on MIUI and everything is fine, but recently I found out that no other ROM will work on my Phone:
- Samsung stock ROM runs extreme (!) laggy. Took me about 5 Minutes to go through the menus and enable USB debugging.
- CM9/ AOKP will reset immediately after system startup
- CM10 shows laggy boot animation for few secs, then bootloops
Only other ROM that works is "cMIUI". Which is a CM10 based ROM only with a MIUI userinterface...
What can I do to find out whats the problem with my phone??
Thats weird. Have you tried wiping data before flashing each of these ROMs? Next time, try formatting /system, /data, cache and dalvik cache. Also, have you tried using those kernel cleaning scripts, etc?

Only one option I can think of is to go back to stock samsung rom then claim your warranty if you have it. Or, make a logcat and paste it here (upload to Dropbox or somewhere then past a link over here) and someone experienced might take a look.
Since you've already wiped everything, I'm more inclined to think that it's a hardware problem now. However, let's hope someone more experienced pops in and helps. Good luck

See two logs below, trying to boot cm9. One with default kernel, one with Siyah. Would be great if anybody could find out whats the issue.

In both logs the phone booted and showed the Pin dialog, then after few seconds rebooted.
As the Phone had been waterdamaged Im pretty shure warranty is absolutely void Also I think that the problems are due to some Hardware malfunctioning. Just want to know what and if theres some way to workaround.
I'm using Beanstalk on my phone and I get a lot of random reboots. Mostly when I'm unlocking the phone. I press the button and the soft keys light up the phone freezes and 5 or so seconds later it reboots. It also happens during calls sometimes when I take the phone away from my face and the screen turns on and sometimes when I'm listening to music. It's also happened a few times while I was using the phone. I don't restore any data(unless you count the apps that automatically reinstall from the playstore when I boot the phone, and a few apks from blackmart) I've tried reflashing but that was only a temporary fix. I always have problems with roms being really buggy even though I always to clean flashes.
Can someone help me to fix this? I use this device to play music over a sound system for crowds of people so I really need this bug fixed. (preferably without reflashing but I will if need be.)

you can go to the Original Development thread and find the thread for the Uber kernel. pay attention cause one is for JB and the other for KK. whichever Beanstalk your running get the right kernel.
you will flash it just like you flash a rom, or more like you would flash the gapps. you don't have to start over flashing rom again, you are just flashing the kernel to it.
the reboots sound a bit off to me as if you are flashing completely clean, KK is very stable for me and most others. maybe try flashing rom twice as you can get 2 different reactions on 2 different flashes.
flash rom
flash rom again
gapps
boot and wait
reboot
go back and flash your kernel
make sure you get all your wipes in middle of all this.

If you are using Beanstalk you should probably read the BeanStalk thread, both of these common problems (screen flicker and failure to wake) are solved with a Aroma package made by p0llution. You flash it in recovery and all is good. Link is in 1st post, right next to ROM link. You can also switch kernels and boot animations with same package.

I'll give you some slack 'cause I am still close enough to my first flash that I remember being full of questions, but at least read the OP and most recent pages in your ROM thread. You should skim through it all ideally but some are 100+ pages so....
Kernel switching in general does not require any ROM action, there are likely cases that it might be useful but I've never had a problem. You will need to ensure that the kernel is matched to your ROM; KitKat or Jellybean or whatever. I usually do it as I flash a ROM but I have gone back and installed a kernel on a running ROM plenty of times; Uber for instance was released after I had BeanStalk up and running, it is a good kernel so I switched to that.
As a more general point the Note is hard to brick, as long as you don't somehow mess up the recovery (CWM or TWRP) you are just a quick restore away from back to normal. Use the backup function in your recovery, it is your friend and savior. Keep a copy of the back-up on your PC (or Mac) and you will usually be golden.

If you are on BS Rom you should know that all you need to to know is on the OP post-the rom and the patch. The latter contains about 5 different kernels which you can switch betw. to your hearts content. The patch is n00bie proof to make your switches. Really hit BS OP.

Just like all the other kind gents adv'd, it's all in patch's OP:

He uses aroma installer, so when you flash it (personally, I did it with CWM) you don't need to wipe cache/dalvik nor wipe phone, he mentons this on patch's thread while answering questions I believe. The screenshots show you some differences between the kernels he has available, either CM, Uber or PAC.
Personally, I'm using PAC since for me it seemed to work better with the Xposed's Netflix workaround, whereas it didn't work that well with Uber.
Also, the patch provides fixes, for camera, screen flicker and such.. Give it a try, and you'll definitely love your phone more!
