I got a problem whit my sgs+. It doesnt go anywheare from cwm 5.504. I tried to install CyanogenMod 9 and it actually installed but when i reboot it does the reboot and comes back to CWM. I followed thease intructions:
Installation:
Back up your apps with TitaniumBackup. Backup your SMS with SMS Backup & Restore and your call logs with Call log Backup & Restore. Export your contacts to a .vcf file.
First a special version of CWM recovery is needed, FeaMod does not work because it does not set partition sizes for CyanogenMod 9 correctly. The new recovery can restore FeaMod Recovery backups in case you want to return to one later. There are many ways how to install the recovery, choose one:
Flash CWM5504-CM9-recovery.zip inside FeaMod (boot into recovery, apply update from sdcard) or stock recovery
or use Quickflasher from broodplank:
Connect phone via USB, start sgsflasher_x86.exe, activate "Flash a new Recovery", select the recovery.img and press "Start Now".
or use Odin to flash recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.4-ariesve.tar.md5 as One Package using the regular AriesVE.ops (Tutorial)
or flash recovery.img using the command line/adb by putting it on your sdcard and executing the commands:
adb shell
su
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13
CyanogenMod9 comes as a zip that is installed inside recovery. Download cm-9-20121023-EXPERIMENTAL-ariesve-beta3.zip and put it on your sdcard.
Reboot into CWM Recovery
Perform a backup!
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe Cache partition
Advanced > Wipe dalvik cache
Install zip from sdcard (choose cm-9-20121023-EXPERIMENTAL-ariesve-beta3.zip)
.........................................................................................
So the .zip file seesms to install but my phone doesnt open up whit cyancolen or the stock rom... In the recowery menus i can do anythin i want but i think i dont do the righy things so could someone help me?
thanks
Try clearing cache and dslvik cache in recovery and then reboot. . .

Hi, finlandpetu, I've had the same Problem, and I think you have to flash a new Bootloader. Look at this Thread. :good:

WARNING: im a noob
sooooo... i rooted my phone and everyone says that there is an option in recovery mode to do nandroid backup and i have no option like that.
when i go into recovery it has:
1. Reboot
2. Flash update.zip
3. Wipe data/factory reset
4. wipe cache partition
how do i do a nandroid backup?
Select fladh update and it will take u to clockwork mod recovery if you installed it. That is where nandroid is located. If you havent installed it get rom manager from market and install recovery from it

Hello All,
i tried to install SBF ATT-2.3.4_Pudding_preroot and i get a Booting loop with the Motorola logo.
before the instillation i had a Unlocked, rooted Android 2.3.4FR version with CherryBlur 1.4D.
what i did is perform a full format of the phone with factory reset and full wipe (thru the recovery). now i get this boot looping and i dont have the recovery (i get "!" sign with Android icon.
PLEASE HELP !!!
Sounds like you have stock recovery. Did you try the lower right corner of the screen with the !, or might have to hit Vol up and vol down at the same time if you were on 2.3.4.. Hope this helps..
OK .. we have some progress
I did what you told me to, and i manage to arrive to the Android system recovery <3e>, ( Android system recovery utility).
and i have the following options :
1. Reboot system now
2. apply update from sdcard
3. wipe data/factory reset
4. wipe cache partition
what I need to choose ?

and use the following commands :
Use the following commands to flash the images:
moto-fastboot flash boot boot.img

Hi,
Currently using latest firmware KI3 with root.
I'm able to use CWM, backup, install zips, everything.
However, if i install a ROM trough a ZIP, i get a boot loop.
Only way to get back the phone, it's to install via ODIN with latest KI3.
Even tried with Litening Rom, and got the boot loop.
Any ideas ?
I was very keen to return to CM7.
Tx in advance.
Did you exactly what's mentioned here?
Install via ClockworkMod (do not use ROMManager for initial install):
Make sure you're running a rooted device.
Root your device and install ClockworkMod Recovery (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1118693)
Do a Nandroid backup!
WIPE (wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition) - do it for real.
Install the ROM from internal sdcard using ClockworkMod Recovery.
Do not reboot! We mean it - do nothing except choose zip and continue next step (if you come back to us with permission issues in install, we will know you did not read the directions and will call you an idiot). If it just plain hangs, reboot directly back into ClockworkMod recovery and continue at the next step.
Install the ROM from internal sdcard using ClockworkMod Recovery, again (due to a bug in the install).
Reboot
Install the Google Addon through ROMManager which is easiest, but you can
download the gapps.zip and install via ClockworkMod recovery instead.

Did you try flashing a old stock ROM like KH3, root it then try from this base?
I went from Villain ROM 2.3.5 to CyanogenMOD without any problems.
It's essential that you flash CyanogenMOD !TWICE! in a row when you're coming from a stock ROM.
Thanks.
Gonna check, as soon as i'm @ 127.0.0.1
Same behaviour, back to boot loop.
Tanx anyway!
I had a similar problem so here goes my help.
Cf root kernel uses a modified version of CWM that isn't compatible with CM7 or something like that. So what I did was flash this kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1118693. Get the kernel with CWM 5.x.y.z With that I got a compatible version of CWM and from there I flashed CM7. It is important that you do a full wipe, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, format \system, everything so you don't get any trouble. THen you flash the CM7 zip file, when tha t is done, flash the zip again for a second time (don't reboot just do it after the first flash). After that reboot. That worked for me at least.
A tip: If you can't reboot your phone and you have no ROM zip file to flash via CWM you can mount usb storage from CWM for putting the ROM in sd card and flash with CWM. That way you don't have to use ODIN to recover.
Tanx Tomas.
Tried with CWM 5.x.y.z and upon "WIPE" always got an error for mounting partitions.
Could't mount CACHE, SDCARD .....
Tx anyway.
Back to ODIN, back to stock 2.3.5
PS : I have to get a JIG to reset ...
Hey Guys
I have FXP132-cm9 installed on my device. But since I installed this, none of the new FXP 133-cm9/cm10 nor FXP 134-cm9/10.
I flashed the ROM from recovery, flashed gapps, wipped the caches. Then rebooted into fastboot and flashed the kernal. Then on reboot it just gets stuck FreeXperia logo and never goes past that.
Then if I reboot into recovery again and try to flash the ROM again, it gives me an error 7. assert failed. L26a, L26i, nozomi. Then none of the ROMS work. I have to restore from previous backup in order to get my device working again.
Any ideas on what I can do?
Thanks
Assert fails because you may format /system. It causes product name to be removed. Next time avoid doing this.
For this time, extract updater-script from the zip, remove the assert command and then replace the old updater-script.

Ah ok. That makes sense. Thanks for the feedback.
I did manage to get it working. I first flashed the boot.img, then installed the rom and cleared dalvik cache, then it working perfectly fine.

Click thanks if I helped, if it goes wrong just restore from your nandroid backup
At the step from the guide above where i'm about to restore my /data I get an error message like this:
Code:
E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/
Anyone have a solution?
THANKS
CM & FXP = lost radio signal

The steps I did to upgrade is this:
- Download the FXP version you want. (If on Xperia S, make sure its the nozomi one)
- Extract the zip file to any directory on your PC and also copy the zip file to your SDcard
- Shut down your device
- Boot into fastboot (Hold the volume up key while putting usb cable in. Blue LED will come on and nothing else
- Open command prompt or terminal and navigate to the adb directory
- Flash boot.img via fastboot: fastboot flash boot ~/Path/To/boot.img
- Then disconnect the device from the host machine and boot into recovery
- Flash zip from SDCard, select zip put on above
- Flash gapps
- Wipe dalvik cache and nothing else
You should be able to reboot the device now without any issues. And all your existing apps and settings will still exist as you had it before if you are upgrading from previous FXP version.
Good luck

(1) What phone model do you have?
(2) When you flash roms you do not need to root your phone! roms come already rooted you only root if you are going to stay on stock rom and install root apps.
(3) Don't use apps to install roms use recovery PhilZ,Cwm,Twrp
Dont know much about Twrp but in other recoveries it should say install zip not update zip (Twp might be different)
1. I have I9300
2. Ok.
3. I use TWRP application to enter into recovery mode. When I chose reboot/recovery from app menu then my phone is rebooting and entering into recovery mode.
There is only "update" option in recovery menu, other options is:
-reboot system now
-apply update from ADB
-apply update from external card
-wipe data/factory reset
-wipe cache partiotion
-apply update from cache
Thats the stock recovery.
Cwm, twrp, philz recovery are not apps. They are recoveries you must flash that will substitute the stock recovery.
Look into the stickies, philz touch recovery post, etc to see how to flash the recovery you want.

Ok please read the stickies/guides about flashing roms you are not doing it right you need to do a full wipe including system but please read up on how to do this or you will be left without a rom/system on your phone. (And always backup your old rom and efs very very important!! )
