I used CF auto root and then installed CWM 6.0.2.7 to install the CM10.1 rom. I copied gapps and cm10.1 on my external sd card but when I tried to install it I got an error, and now my phone is stuck on boot.
Please Help!!!

I did a wipe data/factory reset from CWM but it didn't work
I guess reflash the old rom
Did you format data and system before flashing?

So, what do i do? I have access to the Recovery mode and Download mode and that, but i can't start the phone. it shows a simple white Android text on a black background. This happened when i flashed it and installed Cyanogen. I installed 2.3 before that, and 2.3 worked like a charm. I really need help ASAP, i need the phone tomorrow, i have an important meeting!
I tried to install the 2.3 ROM again, but after it's finished the white text is still there.
It would be nice to get a reply here.
Have you tried doing a full wipe of data and cache before flashing?

When you say 'flash', do you mean what i do in ODIN or in recovery mode?

Well, guessing that you use ODIN to flash (install the rom of your device) the rom, then there (also done in CWM Recovery). But I am saying, did you format the device before doing this?

If you're talking about formatting the sd card before flashing... no.
If you're talking about formatting the device data in Recovery before flashing... no
Do you think i should try formatting it first, and then flashing? I'm going to have a go at flashing through Odin and then through Recovery, as i originally did. This time with a format first
someone please help

Yes, I meant formatting the device data while in recovery, before flashing.
Hi,
so I tried to install a new theme and during the install the phone froze. I tried to access the recovery again, but I can't, the phone stucks at galaxy s3 screen. However I can access download mode.
My question is, what do I have to do to keep my SD Card content (like pictures)? Which firmware should I flash? I was on Wanam Lite Rom.
Thanks for Help
Matt

Flashing a theme will not mess your recovery partition so it cannot happen that you have lost recovery..so try again..
Once you are able to boot into recovery flash the ROM which you were using without a wipe first...you will not loose anything..if you face problems then wipe data/factory reset in CWM ..even then you will not loose the data on your internal SD..

I know that it seems strange but I'm not able to access it. I tried to install
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1844756
on my wanamlite since someone wrote it would work (I did a nandroid backup first). However the installation froze and I had to pull the battery. Since then it won't boot or boot into recovery (the syiah kernel flash screen doesn't show up either).

Hi, all!
I have that annoying problem with all the 4.3 ROM I've tried with no exception. Everything is fine until the first reboot. Then it's stuck on the first Galaxy SIII boot logo. I'm using TWRP - the latest version if it matters.
I always wipe everything first.
Please give more details on how you flash it.

If you did all required wipes and followed the instructions did you try a different recovery? I read in the SB thread for example of people having issues with TWRP
Sent from my Nexus 7 (2013)
I am sorry for the wrong section. May I ask some to move it to Q&A?
I always wipe data, cash, dalvik cash, system. Then install the ROM and gapps...
After the restart I set up the google account and etc. And after the first restart the phone freezes. That's all.
I'll try with different recovery.
PS. I've just tried CWM recovery 6.0.3.3. and Omega AOSP v9. Still the same.
Try cwm 6.0.3.6 and after you install the rom and after its set up go to recovery and factory reset

That's strange, I run Philz recovery and every 4.3 flash till now went through without issue.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
I tried all the recoveries I could find. Including Philz. Still the same.
And something else strange. I installed CWM, CWM, touch and Philz and with them I made backups. After restoration of the backup the phone freezes. I also tried to install Omega 49 and the installation goes OK, but freezes before the first start-up.
The only solution was to install manually TWRP (Odin) to restore some of my old backups. I'm beginning to think that there is something wrong with my phone. It's black if it is important.
Suggest total wipe of phone install your stock rom and test
Hi,
I just want to say I'm also having the same problem.
Started using TWRP with full wipe, same issue on 4.3 and no issues on 4.2.
On latest CWM same problem and 4.2 wont even pass the first boot on Samsung logo.
Also had to use Odin to get back on TWRP and flash a 4.2 rom again.
Anyway there is one more thing I would like to try but haven't had the chance to do so, is installing the latest modem and ril. But I'm kind skeptic about that currently because there is also some risks and my S3 is my daily driver.
Don't change the ril on any custom as you stand a big chance of breaking the calls and Tex's. Modem yes but not ril. Do change to cwm and retry.

Thanks for the info, I was planning to read more about it before I would make an attempt. BTW already tried CWM that only made things worse, couldn't flash any rom without getting stuck on samsung screen.

You are doing a full wipe?. System and data is the main thing to wipe not just factory reset. So go into mounts and storage and format data,system and cache there then flash the rom /gapps.

yes tried that, also used the mega wipe zip thing
Start fresh and flash stock with Odin then try again after you root and install cwm.

Tried to go stock and flashed a 4.3 rom again that fixed my problem. =)
Thanks! :good:
I'll try it too. And one stupid question. Where do I find a stock ROM? I never did it before

Thank you!
But nothing helped. I flashed a stock ROM, with Odin. First I tried with TWRP, and the second time (again after flashing stock) with CWM recovery. I tried two 4.3 ROMs. They both can't boot after the first reboot.

1. Flash stock with odin
2. Hard reset
3. Boot up and finish first run menus
4. Flash twrp with odin
5. Format data with twrp
6. Flash 4.3 rom

You will need to provide a bit more info for anyone to help. Were you on stock rom? Have you tried to flash a rom? You have root access(custom recovery)? Do you have an external sd card and access to a pc?

When you say you have already flashed a rom, which rom is that? In the installation process, was it successful(was there any error messages during install) Did you do factory reset, format system, wipe cache & dalvik cache before flashing?
Do you want a stock rom via odin or are you trying to install a custom rom via recovery?
so i factory reset my grand quattro and i cant boot into system,every time i try to boot it goes into cwm recovery screen and now there is an option to flash rom via zip but i dont have any rom as i reseted my internal card so what will i have to do ?
Did you reset your phone from reset option availabale in cwm?
Did you wipe cache?
Did you wipe dalwik cache?

yes i did
If you took backup of your original rom, try to restore it
And if you did not backup, try to flash original rom thru odin
download the rom using pc and transfer it to memory card ,put the memory card into ur phone and then flash it through cwm recovery

Even i have droidwin5 release 3.2.4
But i never had problem with updating supersu binaries.
I think there are two methods, either normal or flashing through cwm.
Try both
