Flash stock rom with flashtool to recover
You shouldn't Format system before installing a custom rom, only if it's required in the thread oft the rom. And how die you Format Boot?
This is not necessary on our xperias. SD card neend't be formatted, too.
Do it like that:
1. Copy the FXP rom zip and if you want the gapps (Google apps) zip to your SD card
2. Flash the boot.img
3. Boot in cwm
4. Wipe data/factory reset
5. Wipe cache, advanced -> wipe dalvik cache
6. Install the FXP ZIP
(6.1) Install the gapps
7. Reboot
That's it

You have to open the rom zip, go to the google folder inside meta-inf, open the updater script and delete the first 3 lines (assert getprop)

Write out the full error, we are not smart people, who are supposed to know everything.

Friend
U have also faced same problem while installing fxp 152 cm10 on my live with Walkman. But I have backup my previous cm9 stable on my PC and i have cm9 zip on my sd card too.so after that installation aborted error I disconnected my battery and then I again connected my phone to PC via fastboot and flashed cm9 kernel and installed cm9 rom. As I too forgotten to take nandroid backup so after installation my phone started normally.
don't worry do it like this.if you ain't got any stable rom then download it in PC and copy it on SD card.

Did you follow the all of the instructions when you installed CM 7 since are coming from FR008?
Format the system, data & cache partitions of your device.
Perform a factory reset.
Flash CyanogenMod.
Optional: Install the Google Apps addon package.
yeah i did that but i didnt see market or anything..

Sounds like you may have a bad download of the Google Apps. Try using this link:
http://android.d3xt3r01.tk/cyanogen/gapps/gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip
Try downloading straight to your phone and then flash from ClockworkMod.

I think you are confused on how to install the Google apps properly.
At step 4, you should choose install zip from SD card, then select the Cyanogenmod zip file and let it install it. Once it has finished, you should then choose install zip from SD card again and then choose the gapps zip file and let it install that. You should reboot the phone only after installing both zip files, one after the other.
You can also save yourself a lot of potential headaches by formatting the system partition before installing. You also didn't mention the dalvik cache but I'm assuming you did that as well. If it's still unclear, here's the whole process you should be following for a clean install:
1) Boot into Clockworkmod
2) Wipe data/factory reset
3) Wipe cache partition
4) Advanced > Wipe dalvik cache
5) Partitions menu > format system
6) Install zip from sdcard, select Cyanogenmod zip file
7) Install zip from sdcard, select gapps zip file
8) Reboot

thanks alot i was not doing and 4 and 5...
Thanks for your direction. I have the Cyanogenmod running stably and I installed the Google Apps thereafter. Since I installed the Google Apps, my phone has been restarting after, say, 3 minutes of startup. Can you help me please.

Make sure you got the correct version of gapps for cm7. It should read something like: gapps-gb-20110503.zip.

My st15i cannot flash rom using clockworkmod

My phone always fail when trying to flash new rom such as cyanogenmod 7 using cwm ..
My step is:
1 copy zip file that contain system file and boot.img in external sd card
2 turn off the phone and boot into cwm recovery
3 I choose install from zip
And when trying to open the package it says error and installation aborted
How can I fix this problem?

Make sure any version of Android 2.3 is installed on your phone.
Install the kernel via fastboot(check my tutorial or read forum, it's been discussed a lot here already).
Then enter recovery and install the zip file.
Make sure to make factory reset, wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache(under Advanced).
Do NOT wipe /system.
If still the same, post the error code here.

[Q] Does my Omega installing plan need adjustment?

Hey guys,
I am completely new to this whole topic so I read several hours and finally came up with a plan for what to do to install omega when my Galaxy S3 i9300 (my first android phone) will arrive tomorrow.
If you spot any mistakes I would make (also in the files I plan on using), please correct me!
1. Upgrading to Jellybean with Kies
2. Installing CWM (File name is CF-SGS3-CWM-v5.5-v1.5 - It's a .tar) via Odin 3.0.4 in download mode- I think I know how to do that
3. Rebooting in Recovery mode and creating a Backup File with CWM - I think I know how to do that
4. Saving the Backup file from the clockworkmod\backup folder on my PC
5. Rebooting in recovery mode and wiping data, cache and dalvik cache - I think I know how to do that
5. Copying the .zip file of Omega to (a folder called root??) internal SD-Card folder of the Galaxy S3 (File name is I9300_Omega_v31_XXDLJ4_Jelly_Bean)
6. Rebooting in recovery mode again and selecting “install zip from SD card” to install the Omega zip
7. Customize like a boss
done
(optional)
8. Realize something doesn't work properly and spam the forums with QQ threads OR Realize I bricked my brand new phone and cry furiously
Thanks in advance for letting me know if my plan needs adjustment

1. Upgrading to Jellybean with Kies
>>>> No reason to unless the rom instructions say to .
2. Installing CWM (File name is CF-SGS3-CWM-v5.5-v1.5 - It's a .tar) via Odin 3.0.4 in download mode- I think I know how to do that
>>>Read the instructions first .
3. Rebooting in Recovery mode and creating a Backup File with CWM - I think I know how to do that
OK
4. Saving the Backup file from the clockworkmod\backup folder on my PC
OK
5. Rebooting in recovery mode and wiping data, cache and dalvik cache - I think I know how to do that
OK
5. Copying the .zip file of Omega to (a folder called root??) internal SD-Card folder of the Galaxy S3 (File name is I9300_Omega_v31_XXDLJ4_Jelly_Bean)
NO NO not a folder called root . Just place on your sd card .
6. Rebooting in recovery mode again and selecting “install zip from SD card” to install the Omega zip
YES
Fails to boot first time one it make take a while for first boot boot stuck recovery and factory reset .

Flash recovery
Do factory reset, than wipe dalvik.
Than flash Omega.
Finally reboot and enjoy
But I'm recommending InsertCoin, because it is easy theamble with better themes, very stable (still haves some problems, but reboot solves them), mostly no lags, good memory managing.

Hey,
thanks for your answer! I have to install jellybean first if I want to install a ROM for Jellybean, right? So I guess that's not explicitly in the instructions but it's still a requirement?? Or does Omega install Jellybean itself?
I am really not sure, but I think I have to install Jellybean first.

It worked! Thanks alot!
(For other beginners: I put the Omega zip file on an external sd card, not sure if it works with the internal one. Works without upgrading to Jellybean first.)

Try a diferent recovery.
make sure you have either of this cwm recoveries 5.0.5.4 ( think this was best for ics) or 6.0.4.3 (for jb or cm10)

I've installed cm10 but it keeps lopping at boot.... I've done everything following the tuts... but with no luck....
Heres a recomendation flash back to a stock rom via odin boot into etc check whether you have a sdcard if you have then perform all the wipes etc and follow the instructions to flash cm10 .
I got an error when trying to copy files from \sdcard\* (ICS partiton layout) to \sdcard\0\ (CM10 partition layout)
You can also try looking at /mnt/shell/emulate see if you data is there
Few questions:
Can you boot into recovery?
Upload does that mean when you are "uploading" a file from your pc to your tablet it gives you and error or do you mean "upload" for when you are in recovery and applying a zip it does not find the sdcard.

[Q] CyanogenMod 10.1.3 How to install on S2?

I've recently downloaded the Stable version of CM and I don't know how to install it, after installing it will I lose my data? App game datas?
Thanks a lot
True. When you install a new rom you should wipe data. Otherwise it crashes on startup. You can back up the data that

So how do I install it?
I've looked into the other installation guides but those are for CM10.2 (Andorid 4.3) so I think its different installation method from 10.1, but I cant find a tutorial
C'mon...Read the first page of the CM10 thread & follow the installation instructions. Doesn't take a MENSA member to get it done
If you have used titanium backup root hayz to backup game data. Want to install a new ROM to install it into RECOVERY. If the rom you download it tails. ZIP Remember to wipe data + cache + dakvil before.
My device GT-i9100G
note: im always start all my flash from stock ROM (meaning stock JB 4.1.2)
my usual method, all can be done in the phone, no need odin if youre already stock;
-download all related file, CM10.1.3, CM GApps, Blazing kernel v8 (if you dont want your binary counter to change)...put them in external SD
-boot into recovery, select apply update from external storage, select file blazing kernel v8, let it finish and reboot normally
-then reboot into recovery again and install your Cm10.1.3 and GApps by navigating to your external SD (sorry cant remember the path)
-after finish installing both above file, let it reboot...if bootloop, reboot back into recovery and wipe data, cache and dalvik, and then reboot
now your CM10.1.3 is ready~
-hit thanks if my post helps you-
