So I just flashed this ROM VIA Odin and I'm a bit worried.
Here is what I'm noticing:
When I first booted the phone everything was very glitchy looking which didn't worry me too much because it was the first boot. I rebooted it after 15min or so and is was still glitchy. It was just a bunch of different pixels. I went into my camera and it looked the exact same. Every once in a while I'll do something and then it will look really glitchy and not show anything, and then it will subside. Is anyone experiencing this? Was it a bad flash or is this normal with a freshly installed ROM?
Flash a gingerbread bootloader. That will fix the rainbow effect, as it is called on these boards.

i was experiencing the same problems as you and most of them were solved by flashing the bootloader and the sgs2 camera needs to be flashed sepratly (i think)
Turn off the screen and turn it back again and it will all clear up.

Hopefully they can start making flashing the bootloader flash by default. It would calm a lot of nerves.
i dont have rainbow apart from on boot up and i dont have the bootloaders
Hello
first off let me say thanks in advance to anyone who can help me shed some light on this matter.
im trying to follow forum rules (i have used them before) and used the search function. so if i missed it im sorry. but here is as much info as i can give.
so i have a Tmobile samsung galaxy s vibrant. great phone love it. it had eclair on it. i used samsung kies to update it to froyo 2.2. that was the most i knew you could update a phone. until i found out you can do more. so i instantly wanted to flash to a the best ROM i could find info and was directed to the jelly bean Rom. i initially wanted to try the helly bean ROM (not sure if there is a difference) but im new to this and went with the rom i could find the most info on. found this guy on youtube. since i can post out side links yet. he calls him self "DJ eddie one" who was also recommended by the team passion forum. again im new to this so bare with me. so i tried to go through the process. I'm sure you all know that you cant just go from froyo to another rom. so i had to go back to stock. i re flashed the phone back to eclair via Odin by the same guy in his "return vibrant back to stock" video no problem. back everything up and made it back to stock. touch screen has response and i can unlock the phone and use it like normal. here is the deal now. after i went through the whole process of flashing it and going from ICS to slim bean and then to jelly bean. the home screen comes up and says "swipe here" or "touch here" or "start" or what ever. the screen does not respond. the volume buttons raise the volume and the power button turns the screen off and if i hold the power power button i get the "airplane mode"/"power off" options but cannot select anything. i thought i had done something wrong so i did the process over again. 3 times. even stopped at each rom change just to check it out as i processed through the process. no change. flash back to Eclair stock. and it works fine.
please help. i hate elcair. im sick of it. i want my free mobile hot spot back so i can listen to NPR news ap on my ipod touch in my car cuz i dont have a radio. and froyo blows too. if you're wondering why i can afford a snazzy phone and ipod touch but not a car stereo its because i drive an RX7. Cheers please help! i sure hope its something stupid (almost always is with me) i tend to over think things. plus i work on PCs and MACs for a living. i setup freaking networks for Allah sake. its frustrating to get stuck on a some phone software. AAAAHHHHHAAA.. *end rant*
thanks again.
hysterically yours

Well if your running hellybean. It sounds like it might just be a bad flash. Don't Odin back to stock.
1.go into recovery and format system.
2. Wipe cache.
3. Go into advanced settings and wipe dalvik cache.
4 go into mounts and storage and format /boot and format /system.
Reflaah the hellybean allinone(it depends which hellybean build were you flashing)
5.flash the hellybean add on and reeboot

ok,
so i did all that and still no change. but im pretty sure i must have missed something when i initially flashed the phone. cuz i have no idea what the hellybean add on is you speak of.
Go to the Helly Bean thread in the developers forum. Go to page one and it should have a link to the addon package.
I had a glitch like yours one time where the touch screen acted like it was unplugged (for lack of better way to describe it). I popped battery out and rebooted and it was fine.
If not, Odin back to stock and follow my guide I posted in the Status 7 error thread. Page 3 I think.

Try flashing CM10 instead of Helly Bean. Helly_Bean's installation can be somewhat tedious, but CM10 is just one zip file. Here is a link:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1775271

and how would i do that? i mean what would cause the screen not to work? i was fine when eclair was on it and fine when foryo was on it. i go through the process of flashing it to ICS Passion then to Slim Bean and then to Jelly Bean and the screen just stops? i even stopped at eat Flash cuz i wanted to see what they looked like before made it to jelly bean. and each one the screen did work. i was thinking some sort of kernel file handles that or driver? correct me if im wrong.

That is the link for the addon package. Choose the one for Helly Bean. Its up to you whether its the regular or inverted. Should be able to just flash away.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30237539
The second link is for the install method I used. It may be overkill, but its the only way that would work for me, and it gave me a good clean install. It looks like a lot but it really doesnt take long..
I'm sorry guys bare with me. while i try to grasp this. im currently running the recovery software CWM-based recovery V6.0.1.1
since i cant get the ROM to work the screen can i mount the phone to USB drive from that recovery? or do i need to Odin back to stock and start over? so that i can mount back the USB and transfer the files i need.

Thank you for clearing up that link for me.
In that thread stated are the files i need to flash the phone. in there is this link (http://rootaxbox.no-ip.org/derteufel/Helly_Bean/) which i have been to before. i guess i got confused as to what files i needed from the link because there are a few directories in there with lots of other files and i wasnt sure which i needed. Example; in that link if i click on kernel link it takes me to the next directory with numbers. ( i assume these are versions) then if i click on 113 it takes me to another dir of files. i can only assume i want the one that is lableled "Devil3_1.1.3_HB_vibrant_CFS_BLN_VC_20120807.zip"
im just confused as to what files i do need and what i dont need. im sorry to be such a pest.

thanks toast;
whats the difference of the inverted as apposed to the regular? if i try one can i go back to try the other?
in reference to your second link;
i can flash back to sock with odin no problem.
the rest of the items needed on the list though
Gingerbread bootloader installed
-Bionix V fishman ROM (2.2 with Bali kernel, any 2.2 ROM may do.. YMMV)
-latest CM9 nightly (ICS)
-latest Helly Bean All In One and Add-on package.
i can get this from the same link?
The rest of the items you'll need to search for. GB boot loaders has a whole sticky devoted to it, how to do it, etc.
You can find the bionix ROM and CM9 nighty (ICS) in the android development forum (hit your back button once and you should see the development forum)
You'll be fine, just download everything you need, follow instructions, and you'll be set.
I've never used inverted apps, I assume it changes the look of them.

Alright toast,
just verify with me that i found the right stuff here so i don't go on some wild goose chase.
Bionix V fishman ROM (2.2 with Bali kernel, any 2.2 ROM may do.. YMMV)
fond here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1441976
latest CM9 nightly (ICS)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1575170
the Helly bean and add on package was post already
this one i think http://rootaxbox.no-ip.org/derteufel/Helly_Bean/addons/
Yep.. with the Bionix ROM, I download and flashed the package via CWM, I didn't use the Odin image. Either way should work fine. Your last link is directly to the add-on package, here is the link to the ROM http://rootaxbox.no-ip.org/derteufel/Helly_Bean/rom/
I would download and use the 8/13 build of Helly Bean. If you have any questions feel free to PM me.
Just don't forget to flash to GB bootloader. You may have done that already, if not read about and follow the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1117990
Have fun!
The inverted gapps change white to black and black to white, for example in gmail the screen will be black and red with white writing.
There are two benefits from this
1. They look cool IMO.
2. It uses less battery, white screens draw more current.

Rotary, just received your pm. Seems like your still in the same boat. Touch screen not working.
Can you confirm your status now? It appeared that your touch screen will work while on eclair, but on no other ROM. Is that still your current situation?
Hey toast just looking over the thread, don't know if he still needs it but the hellybean zip he posted is a kernel zip not the ROM.

Update on this thread:
Last night via GTalk Rotary_Bunta and I:
1) Odined to stock, booted up checked touch screen. Worked good.
2) Flashed Bionix V, booted, touch screen working good.
3) Flashed GB bootloader, reboot checked touch screen.. working good.
4) Flashed CM9 Nightly... touch screen not working.
5) decided to proceed to see if phone just hated the ICS ROM, and flashed Helly Bean. Flashed x2, installed add-ons and touch screen doesn't work. Boots up and cannot slide ring to unlock screen.

Flash CM7 and then tell me results of that.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda app-developers app
Update: He flashed CM7 = no touch screen response.
Tried different kernels. Power button won't even wake screen. Flash back to 2.1 or 2.2 and all is well. Touch screen and buttons work just fine.
Flashed Glitch kernel w/ cm7 to see if there were any changes at all, made no difference.
I've been using the euphoria ROM for a few months now with no incident. The phone has never given me problems of any sort, well the bad GPS, but that's a known issue.
Anyhow the other night went to bed without charging my phone. In the middle of the night I woke up and realized it was not charging, so I connected the charger and went back to bed. However by that time my phone has fully discharged so I got the battery graphics.
In the morning when I tried to turn the phone on I got the spiral boot icon and then a black screen.
I've tried to get the recovery mode but to no avail. I know the phone is somewhat working because i get the spiral boot animation and the charging graphics but i cannot get the phone to turn on. Did anybody know a fix, any advice will help.
Thanks in advance
=X=
I like your name, X (thats my nickname around here )
Anyways, when you plug it in, does the charging stuff come up? (if yes, how much battery do you suppose its at?)
Have you tried download mode? (take out battery, plug in USB, put battery back in while holding... I think its vol up and down + power, after it says VIBRANT let power go)
I'm not sure if your phone even goes that far.
Likewise I like your nickname.
My battery is close to 100%. I tried the sequence you mentioned with no luck. I get the same behavior, I get the spiral boot graphics and the phone good black. With the cable connected I get the charging battery graphics. The graphics does work properly. When the battery gets to 100% it vibrates too

Just curious, what ROM/kernel were you on?
Also, by the spiral graphics are you talking about the bootanimation?
Are you on Froyo bootloaders or Gingerbread bootloaders?(if you don't know and have never messed with bootloaders its froyo)
I'm running Chimera v2.2. It's an ICS ROM made by team passion. The kernel is 3.1.10
Yes by the spiral I mean the boot animation. You only ever see it from a cold boot.
I don't know what boot loader I'm running.I think team passion is using the same one as Cyanogen. It's that common boot loader with a GUI.

Well the bootloader doesn't really use a GUI. You might be talking about the recovery, the one with "reboot system" and "install zip from sdcard"
What i was referring to was when i was installing the Chimera ROM I hadn't use a GUI app to install the ROM l. I thought the instructions mentioned it was installing a bootloader, but I could have miss read it.
Okay, X, I tried the steps again. I realize I did not follow all of your steps so I repeated them again. This time in tried the three finger salute with the USB plugged in and it worked. I get the recovery menu by choosing reboot it boots up properly.
However when I shutdown and turn on the phone I'm back to square one

Wait.. so when you tried my method your phone actually booted all the way up??
I was planning for you to go to Download mode and ODIN, but err..
Next time you go to recovery
*make sure you have a ROM in your sd card that is safe to flash, even if its chimera*
wipe data/factory reset
mount/storage > format system
flash your ROM in sd, then reboot
Yeah I wasn't expecting it to work. But now that that worked I am a bit nervous about installing a ROM incase the bootloader is corrupted.

:l, pretty sure you're confused, and the bootloader is not corrupted. If bootloader was corrupted, your phone would never start without a JTAG again.
Anyways, get into recovery, and flash chimera or any other safe rom you have, and see if it boots up. I think it may be something with Chimera.

Sent from my SGH-T889 using Tapatalk 2
Just a suggestion, don't re-install Chimera... Or at the very least, don't use it as a daily driver. I stand by that for two reasons. For one, Chimera may have been the reason you got into this problem in the first place. The second reason being... Well... Er... Chimera v2.2 isn't the best ROM out there, and it's kinda dated... I'm sure there's others that would agree. I mean there's plenty of other ICS ROMs available that run much better. Jellybean ROMs have also reached a point of stability, so there's some good Jellybean flavored options to choose from as well. Personally, I'm running ParanoidAndroid (JB) and I'm lovin' it.
Just my two cents... But if you like Chimera, then stick with it. It's definitely a usable ROM.

I'm not dead set on Chimera, it was the best ROM at the time.

Awesome. If you're like me -- a big fan of customization -- then I'm sure you'll love ParanoidAndroid (LINK).
Otherwise there are ten other JB ROMs to choose from, and about seventeen different ICS ROMs to choose from (excluding Chimera v2.2). Links to said ROMs can be found in the "ROM" section of the Vibrant Bible thread (LINK).

Awesome thanks for the links. It sounds like paranoid android will for my likes. I'm going to update my phone with that rom.
I'm still having problems with my phone however.
So I've upgraded my phone to the latest ParanoidAndroid but I'm still getting the same problem.
All works fine once it's running but I have to use the USB and three finger boot to get the phone to start, once I'm in the recovery mode selecting her restart launches the OS .
However trying to start the phone from a cold boot does not seem to work...any ideas anyone?

It's probably not bootloader-related, but for what it's worth, froyo bootloaders don't work well with ICS Roms.
Chances are it's just a ROM issue, but if that fails just ODIN to default, re-root, install GB bootloaders, etc. (Basically, start over)
I have run many ICS and JB ROMs without issue running froyo boots. It was mostly GB ROMs that had issue and needs GB boots. I don't suspect that to be the issue however, it won't hurt to try it.
I am Jack's smirking revenge.
Anyone have an idea why every time I install an aosp rom it glitches at the Samsung boot screen then just goes black and I have to pull the battery? I've installed clean, jelly beans and jedi Rom without issue. Any help is appreciated.

Just updated my TWRP to 2.4 and did what you suggested with the wiping and same problem.
The Samsung Galaxy screen glitches to half way off the screen, then goes off, then comes back on then the whole thing goes black and nothing.
I'm going to try another rom and see if it still does it as well.

Even with another ROM it doesn't seem to want to work. It's really weird, because any Touchwiz ROM works fine, it only does it on AOSP roms..... I'm hoping someone knows what the fix for this is.

in my experience, you need to do a factory wipe again AFTER you install or you will get a bootloop.
I think CM10.1 mentions that in their install process.

I would try cwm, I had a gs3 that couodnt flash anything with cwm but could with twrp, my note was the opposite, cwm was awful on it.
Just ran into something very interesting . When I installed Rom Manager and flashed the CWM recovery, I rebooted and my boot screen did the exact same thing it was doing installing AOSP roms. It would seem my problem may just be CWM.

I've heard too many issues with cwm to even try it. Twrp has been flawless for me so why switch? If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Ok, so update - Odin'd back to stock and re-rooted using the Casual method. I have the most recent TWRP installed and when i install the AOSP rom it does the exact same thing. I'm thinking about videotaping what the boot animation does and maybe someone can look at it and see what the cause may possibly be.
If anyone has any other suggestions i'm all ears. Again, any rom based on STOCK works without issue (Clean Rom, Jelly Beans and Jedi), but only AOSP roms (And CWM) crash the phone at "Samsung Galaxy Note II" screen on startup.
Thanks for the suggestions so far, just weird it's not working. I may have the single note 2 to never run AOSP roms. LOL
so... oddly enough i still have trouble installing AOSP roms. the only AOSP rom i have been able to install so far is Paranoid Droid. I am slowly trying each one just to see which one i can force to work. Am I the only person who can't just flash whichever rom I want whenever?
Anyone with other ideas on this? I was frequently flashing back and forth between TW and AOSP. The other day I tried to flash AOSP again and get a failed message in TWRP. Already using latest version of TWRP. I then restore a backup of TW. Download again, verify md5, get failed message again. And yes, I wiped everything...same thing I do everytime. Now I have tried to DL and flash multiple different AOSP roms and I get failed everytime. Decided to try CWM recovery and that just aborts. I have NO problems flashing TW roms though
Follow the advice to Odin back to stock and start over. Otherwise, get a replacement and tell them it's acting weird and slow haha.

I currently have a Tmobile Note 2. And i recently ran into the same issue. I think it started after installing a certain paranoid andrroid rom, which wrote OS folders differently from what i am normally used to seeing. The folders were 0, legacy, and obb. I also notice that it changed my device id to an SGH-i317, which is an ATT Note 2. The rom was a port from an ATT rom of course, but if it was for ATT, it wouldn't work on my device right? I installed GOOmanager, and flashed the OPEN INSTALL SCRIPT. Which it flashed the ATT version. Everything still worked. I flashed back to stock, and updated OTA. Still nothing. I've also noticed that, if i can open the zip file on my pc, it will work on my phone. For some reason, The AOSP files read invalid. While the Touchwiz roms open like a regular zip file.
Any help is appreciated. Hope some of this info helps.
Just realized i posted in the Verizon section. But i think you and I are the only two people with this issue...lol

This is standard on 4.2.2 ROMs. It is related to the multi-user implementation.

Did you ever get your phone to install the AOSP Roms? Mine worked when l just let the phone sit. Now it works fine all the time.

There were two main roms I wanted to try after I finally S-OFF'd my phone yesterday. Hatka Supreme 1.1.0 and Carbon. Neither of these worked and I'm glad that I backed up my S-OFF rooted stock rom. Hatka Supreme, the guy states its best to use Beast Mode kernal with the rom, which I flashed after I installed the room, and it just randomly reboots at the splash screen/a few seconds after getting into Android, so I restored my stock and everything worked fine. Next, I tried Carbon, and it just sat there at the carbon flash screen for like 20 minutes, so again, I had to restore to stock. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Is there a difference between Original Android Development and Android Development? Should I be looking at the original or what? I'm really lost, I'm going to try another rom, hopefully someone replies to this before it finishes downloading. Thanks for the help.
EDIT: I'd rather just sit and wait to see if someone replies before I waste time downloading another rom...any help would be appreciated.

Did you do a full wipe? System, factory reset, dalvik?

It's probably your recoverys fault. On my last DNA I had nothing but failures. Once it took at least 30 times to get a Rom installed. Never solved the issue on that phone. I just soffed my new DNA yesterday, installed the newest cwm touch and flashed 4 different roms with no problem. Try re-flashing cwm touch.

Yes, still the same thing, I'm not saying I didn't do that the first time though, that's like the basics of installing a rom.

Do you think its TWRP's fault? After I found out there was no way to mount USB storage in TWRP I wanted to switch to CWM, but sadly I don't know how.

You could use the goomanager from the play store or use fastbook flash recovery cwm.img
Edit: for the touch version of cwm fastboot is required.

I would rather use goomanager, because it seems easier, but the only thing it seems to be able to download is the twrp image. How would I set it to cwm?
I have canvas 2 running on suvi6 Jupiter rom i have some prob with this when i reboot some icon on home screen will disappear, i found that those apps which r installed on ext sd card its icon will disappear from home screen, but apps working in apps list, only icon from home screen disappeared.
Other problem is that while incoming a call i cannot see full picture of caller becoz half screen is black and half picture can be seen.
Please help me

Sorry I was mistaken, goomanager installs twrp not cwm.
Fastboot is easy to use, I'm at work so I can't to a step by step til I get home later. You should be able figure it out but if not I will help when I get home.

I don't know if you knew this already but I s-offed using moonshine, is that a problem? I installed cwm and tried installing hatka again and it did the same thing, restart like every three seconds into android. I don't know what to do anymore.

I'm no expert, but when u flashed hatka, did u reboot into the system before flashing beast mode kernel? Flashing a kernel in the same recovery session is a no no. Also, beast mode is not compatible with carbon, fyi.

I did that the first time, and thats when I started experiencing it, so I figured that was the problem. So I restored to stock, and then just tried flashing the rom and booting, still same thing, rebooting every 5 seconds. Sometimes I'm able to get into settings, scroll up and down a few times, and then it reboots.
EDIT: If I remember correctly, I didn't even flash beast mode kernel after I flashed carbon.

If you had you never would have seen the carbon boot animation I don't think, just a white scrambled screen.

I've had the same sort of thing happen to me when we first started working with CM. I had to lock up and run the RUU then unlock again, started flashing normally again after that.

I don't want you to do anything, in was just saying what I did to correct it when it happened to me.
And no, I didn't day s-on, I said relocked, the RUU won't run on an unlocked device. Locked and son are different.

I've never had so many problems just trying to flash a Rom before, this is crazy...I'm seriously at a loss about what to do other than stay on rooted stock
bump?..I really want some help..
Did you figure it out? I'd do what pio said. He's kind of amazing. He's a very smart man who most likely knows what he's doing
