This is my first time trying to install this I have a Samsung galaxy s2 T989 And I'm pretty sure I've done it right. I factory wiped it, cleared the cache and the cleared the cache in advanced settings. It's been atlesst over 10min and its still on the blue circle just spinning around.
Can someone please help me?
When I installed cm10.2 for the first time mine done that. Best bet and worked for me is do a battery pull and reboot. If that don't push you past the spinning circle which I ran across you should reinstall the ROM again and it should boot up just fine. Hope this helps

You've bootlooped it. The T989 is a pain when flashing custom ROM's because the custom recovery's built in wipe doesn't quite work for it.
Keep this ZIP handy as you'll be needing to run it every single time you need to wipe data/cache and dalvik. Don't ever ever use any other means of wiping aside from this one until this issue is fixed. I've been doing this for a while and have flashed upwards of 20 ROM's on my T989 alone.
It's called Darkside Super Wipe.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1477955
So, just put that ZIP on your SD card, along with your custom ROM and appropriate Gapps. Flash Darkside first (always) then flash ROM then Gapps. Then reboot and problem solved!!
Good luck!! :highfive:
So after putting that in my sd card. Install that and gapps and cm10.2?

Yup, install Darkside Super Wipe first, then install the ROM zip then Gapps. Then reboot!
Should I factory reset and clear caches first or no?

Nope, just run the Darkside Super Wipe and it'll erase all /system, /data and /cache partitions. And like the thread says, it won't wipe your SD card or EMMC.
Just make sure you don't leave the recovery without flashing the ROM and Gapps
Also, you should get in the habit of making backups. You can make them from CWM or TWRP's custom recovery.
Titanium backup is an application on the Google Play store that you should look into as well my friend.

Very finicky phone for customs. On mine I can get no ROM to fully load other than the stock Koodo 4.04, and CM 10.0 I flashed the latest radio for JB, darkside super wipe, flash custom rom, flash gapps, wipe dalvik. The same process for every ROM i try... still no success, 10.2 stays at boot. Dirty Unicorns starts boot, goes through the "optimizing apps" stage gets to the "starting apps" and reboots, lather, rinse, repeat. I've tried a few others, AOKP and some others. Still only Koodo 4.04 and CM 10.0 will fully boot. Not even the stock T-mobile 4.03 will boot (came with phone). Going to give JMT a shot, it looks pretty

Hey All,
I had been having troubles with 4.0.3 multi-dpi, so I thought I'd flash Saurom. I flashed this, but upon reboot, I got stuck at the samsung screen. It never went past there, just sat there forever. So, I went back into cwm (holding down vol up/vol down/power), and wiped everything again, and tried to flash saurom again, but same thing happened.
I then tried to flash back to 4.0.3 multi-dpi, with same results. I can get into CWM just fine, but it seems any rom I flash hangs at the samsung boot screen.
Does anyone have any ideas? Right now I'm completely down :/
Thanks in advance for any assistance,
Sebastian
Hi sounds like a bad kernel flash.i would go into cwm, do the usually wipes, go to mounts and storage. Format data. Format system. Format cache only. Pull battery. Install any of the odin install Roms through download mode, That should fix your problem. Then you can start over and flash whatever Rom you want

You should restore the latest good backup you created before you flashed whatever is giving you problems.

Just a reminder, when you go to mounts and storage, do not fformat sd storage, this will wipe everything in your memory of your phone

A backup restore should do the trick.

Worse comes to worse you can flash stock Odin. If you one clicked for ICS, remember to flash bootloader first

From my gathering, Saurom & ICS 4.0.3 DPI are incompatible. Meaning you can't flash one on top of the other without doing a full wipe data/factory reset. Having said that, I think the best move then would be to flash back to stock via ODIN, install cwm, redownload whatever ROM to your ex sd card, mount system & data then re-flash.

I "believe" all you need to flash through Odin is the GB bootloader, then you can flash GB roms, the ICS bootloader is what causes the hang up with ROM incompatibilities

Be sure the ROM has the radio load and remember a Nandroid does not flash the radio load. That has to be done manually.

I'm not very familiar with Saurom but from what I've read I think that's correct. ICS needs a clean slate to operate from is all I was saying.
I installed the latest version of RemICS by using TWRM. (First deleted the caches and did that afterwards as well.)
Now the phone is still on the ReMICS - UX bootscreen, already for quite a long time. How long does this usually take the first time after flashing? We are talking about 15 minutes already. The bootscreen is still animated and moving and not frozen. Any thoughts on this?
Or is it impossible to succefully flash via TWRM?
Maybe a bad flash. Go back into recovery, clear data and cache, then reflash the ROM.
It that doesn't work download the file again and flash it.

I flashed it again. deleted the caches AND did a reset to factory defaults, which I thought you did anyway when deleting the caches and system files. That solved the issue for me. Thanks for the reply.
Hello my friend has a Vibrant and I rooted it... It's been running AOKP and now it's on ICS CM9... But whenever I try to flash a CM10 or any JB rom it doesn't boot and it just turns on and then goes to a screen where it look like some sort of android surgery with a red triangle and then goes straight into recovery... What must I do? I wiped everything! I've tried many different JB roms and no luck

With the JB ROMs, you will need to flash them probably 3 times. So wipe cache, dalvik cache, and data in recovery, then go to mounts and storage (still in recovery) format system. Flash the ROM of your choice, most likely it will not complete flash and put you back in recovery. If it does, install zip again (no wipes) if it doesn't and tries to boot, pull battery, use button combo to get back to recovery, install zip again (no wipe), this time it might complete but to be sure install zip a third time, again no wipe, install the gapps zip, and reboot. You should be running JB!

Hey guys,
After using a CM9 rom for a long time I decided to try a cm10 nightly. I just flashed the rom in ClockworkMod and dont think I updated anything else such as boot loader. It boots, says "samsung galaxy 10.1, then I get the CM wheel rotating and it comes to a homescreen but says "Unfortunately, setup wizard has stopped" and I click "ok" and it just keeps coming up. I cant get to home screen or anything. I used to be savvy with flashing these diff roms but after I was on a stable CM Rom for so long I kind of forgot and didnt do it right.
Like I said my guess is I flashed a jelly bean rom onto a older kernel or boot loader, forgive me if I am using wrong terms here. I am sure it can be brought back but its been awhile since I did this stuff so any help is appreciated.
thanks in advance.

Did you make a full wipe i.e. system, data, cache, dalvik before flashing?
Sent from my GT-P7500 using Tapatalk HD
Boot to Download mode and Odin ICS 4.0.4 on the device first. That will give you the required bootloader. You can then root the device before you flash the JB. But you must do full wipes (format/factory reset, format system under Mounts/Storage, wipe dalvik under Advance) before the installation. For the installation, make sure your Recovery is the current one. I use CWM Recovery 6.0.3.2 especially if you wish to install CM 10.1 which is what I run. After the installation wipe cache and dalvik again before rebooting.

Hi. I tried to flash newest version of GApps (full modulare which I have never use before, allways the stock) and newest version of CyanogenMod 11 Nightly. I'm also using CWM Recovery 6.0.4.6 in my GT-I9300. Someone in CyanogenMod forums told me to wipe all data/factory, cache and dalvic cache to make CM's trebuchet, before flashing a new ROM and GApps.
I tried that and result was that I'm getting the ****ing "PHONE HAS STOPPED WORKING" - problem.. Huger problem is that I need this phone tommorow in work, and it ruins my day totally if I don't get it work by tommorow.
Because of Wipe ALL data / factory reset, I do not have even any backup file in my device. What to do to fix it!?

I did format system and wiped all caches. I did everything and ****ed everything up. Now I dont have backup or anything. Flashing and wiping caches doesn't work, allways same prblem when I start my phone again.

Can you boot into recovery? Have you got a external sd card?
If yes put another Rom on ext SD (if you have a SD card adapter for computer) boot into recovery and flash again!
If not can you get into download mode? If yes flash a stock Rom with Odin..

Thank you for helping. I flashed stock 4.3 Jelly Bean with Odin by using XDA's tutorial. Now I need to root my phone again to get CyanogenMod 11 and KitKat, but It's okay. Still don't know how to get CM11's Trebuchet work correctly. Problem is that if I flash PAGapps stock package, I get the phone work correctly, but Trebuchet disappears. If I flash full package of PAGapps, Trebuchet should work, but then this error happends and I need to flash stock rom with Odin.
What to try next?

If you are flashing custom roms you do not need to root, custom roms come already rooted...I'm not sure which gapps are compatible with cm11 but have you tried Banks gapps I use them on Fusion kitkat rom (if they are compatible)..
Obviously there is some app in the full gapps that is causing your problem.As for CM11 launcher can't you use another launcher?
