[Q] CM10.1 Issue - Odin solution? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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 :/

[Q] FOXHOUND Revolver Ocelot Rom installation / upgrade issues

Hello all,
Sorry that i have to post this out of the thread as i cannot post on the development thread for this rom.
I have a Samsung S2 which is rooted. With the release of Foxhound Revolver Ocelot, i tried upgrading from the previous release Foxhound sniper wolf. However i had this issues with the upgrade. I then also tried fresh install but too had problems, i tried for more than 10 times so this is roughly what i gotten
Steps for Upgrading
1. Went into recovery mode and Wipe cache and also wipe dalvik cache
2. Installed from External SD card, Aroma launcher ran and choose siyah kernel and Touchwiz S3 and choose custom install where I chose all applications.
3. Installed ok, phone rebooted and then ran the upgrade applications.
Upgrading symptoms.
a. Either it hang at the boot rom page. Force reboot and it run upgrade applications again
b. When it booted up again, i got an error android.phone not responding and i had to reboot since nothing will be displayed (black screen with notification). Tried fixing permissions in the recover mode didnt work.
c. a few times even when i chose Touchwiz launcher during installing, when it managed to boot up it gave me Apex launcher. When this happen it was very buggy (no input)
I then decided to try a fresh install
Steps Fresh install
1. Boot into recovery mode and factory reset , wipe cache and dalvik cache
2. Install rom and choose siyah, touchwiz s3 as default launcher then installed all software from custom installation and reboot to the wizard process
3. Once after wizard mode reboot and wipe cache and dalvik cache
Fresh install issues
a. It hangs at the end of wizard setup and cannot proceed once the setup is done. When the happens wipe cache and dalvik cache doesnt do anything to help. (meaning if the phone fails at setup wizard i have to repeat the install process. but before that i need to wipe the internal storage)
b. Once i wipe the internal storage, installation and going to the setup wizard is good. Touchwiz launcher also works perfectly. However i am faced with another issue. I am using Mybackuppro to back my data and apks. I did attempt to install superuser and make sure in extweats my phone was rooted before continuing..
What happen is that I can restore my sms/mms/contacts/ but if i reboot the sms icon will disappear and then be re-recreated again (funny symptom)
For mybackup pro app data + apks restore, i can restore only apps but not data. If i try that the phone will reboot. I wrote to the mybackuppro developer but they told me it had something to do with the ROM, not their software.
So at the moment i am not able to use the new rom due to the above problems and i am back on sniper wolf rom..i can only use the new rom if i dont want to port my apk data over, something which i am not willing to do n ow. Was wondering if anyone faced the same issues and managed to work through these problems and can offer some advice?
Thank you.
Hello,
i'm having the same issue. I did a fresh install following all the steps, but the rom freezes after i setup my google account. Then, it reboots and the launcher seems to don't work. I tried with touchwhizz as default, nova launcher and even apex launcher. I just can't get this rom working.
Thank you for this awesome rom anyway, sniper wolf is fantastic. But if anyone knows how to solve this please help me.
Sorry for my English.

[Q] Can't install any JB ROM

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?

[Q] 4.3 ROM Flashing Problem

Anyone else have problems flashing to a 4.3 ROM? (I know some people do because I've searched.)
No matter what ROM it is, if it is 4.3 it will always fail to reboot a second time after it has been flashed.
Currently on CleanROM ACE 4.9 (4.1.2) with TWRP 2.6.0.1
I've tried to go to CM10.2 and it would reboot initially but then hang on the Note II logo if I tried to reboot.
I've tried to go to Paranoid Android.. same thing.
I've tried to go to PAC-man.. same thing.
I've tried flashing from the stock 4.1.2 ROM and the same thing happens.
I've followed every instruction I could find including this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2423057
I do a factory reset, format data, flash ROM, wipe caches, flash gapps, wipe caches, reboot. It will boot fine from TWRP and load everything normally. Then, if I reboot or power off the device, it will hang on the Note II screen and I have to nandroid back to my previous ROM.
Any insight as to why this is happening? I haven't been able to find anything besides some random instructions for wiping/flashing (which I've linked). These ROMs look great and I'd really like to move to 4.3, but I cannot figure out what the problem is.

First time installing CyanogenMod 10.2 to your Galaxy Note 2 I605, or coming from another ROM:
- Read known issues ans FAQs
- Flash the latest official ClockworkMod-Recovery
- Copy GApps and CM10.2 ZIPs to your SDCard
- Boot into Recovery
- Flash CM10.2 zip from SDCard
- Flash GApps zip from SDCard
- DO A DATA WIPE / FACTORY RESET (otherwise your device will be stuck at boot)
- Reboot
- Don't restore system data using Titanium Backup!
- Restoring Apps + Data might cause problems and is not recommended, avoid it if possible!
read the OP for CM 10.2 next time....
First - clockworkmod not twrp for 4.3 usually fixes things
Second - do a factory reset AFTER installing
Third - Dont restore apps with TiBu going to 4.3
Next time be truthful when you say you read and searched.

Stuck on boot animation (cyanogenmod)

I was using my phone and all had been working fine for ages. It was in my pocket for a while and when i took it out to use it I saw that it was on the boot animation of CM11. My phone was already on when I last used it so I had assumed it had crashed. I took the battery out and turned the phone on again but it got stuck on the CM boot animation. The last time I turned on my phone before that was when I flashed a supersu zip file to make my root work as I was having some problems. After flashing the supersu zip and told my CWM recovery to restart the system, it prompted me to "fix root" or something like that, and I clicked yes and it booted normally. That was the last time it booted normally before being stuck as it is now. First thing I did after it got stuck was go into recovery and reflash my current rom ( a CM11 snapshot) I then got faced with a status 7 error and so couldnt flash the rom. So then I flashed multiple other CM11 roms, none of which worked, so I flashed a CM10.2 stable rom which worked. I then got faced with the fix root before reboot thing and so I clicked yes. Still had the stuck booting thingy. I tried many things, flashing kernals roms gapps etc and nothing made a difference. I wiped cache, dalvik cache and no difference. I even wiped the system and tried to flash roms but only the 10.2 one would work, still got a status 7 with the CM11 ones. When I wiped my data however and flashed CM 10.2, it booted. I still couldn't flash the CM11 roms though even after a factory reset. So I have the reason to believe something in the data is wrong, not cache system or anything like that. What could it be? I don't want to have to lose all my data in order to be able to use my phone again, even then, something is still wrong as my phone won't flash CM11 roms anymore. So my questions are;
What things could have caused this?
Can this be a problem from flashing the supersu zip (a root issue)
Is it possible to somehow view or copy the internal data on a computer (since I cant get into the operating system), and this would allow me to get all my pictures contacts music etc anything so I can use my phone by wiping data?
Thanks, sorry this is quite long and probably hard to understand whats going on, but help is appriciated thanks
Don't fix root if you wish to use SuperSU instead builded-in cm superuser. Also try to flash via Odin latest recovery. TWRP should be fine. You can mount partitions from recovery level to download data to your computer. Of course if it still exists. If not, if they are corrupted you need to flash stock ROM and repeat whole cm11 adventure again. If Odin successfully flash the stock then it's a chance your partition layout and user data are untouched.

Samsung Galaxy S3

Hi,
I rooted my phone back in August. I made a backup of the rooted device. I have reset it numerous times. This time it will not work. I started without gapps the first time. I re-did the backup and did gapps but my phone is stuck on android is upgrading after it optimizes apps. I have Philz touch Clock work. I also have liquid smooth but it doesn't appear when I reboot. I have the liquid smooth file on my sd so i can install ls zip and then gapps and the phone will boot up so my phone is on on. The setup wizard fails and I cant access anything. I've tried different gapps 5.1 4.4.2(orignal one), 4.4.3 not compatible. I'm assuming i didn't brick it because it does start and go to myregular phone display.I don't know if something was updated with samsung which made my backup or gapps not work correctly. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have wiped rom, davlik, cache, installed backup...same process install liquid smooth first. Ive done my backup without gapps and it starts but all apps fail because no gapps.
