So I was using Boot Menu Manager and I made a full backup of my stock rom. I wiped everything from system 1 and flashed Carbon rom then dtrails kernel. Well it wouldn't boot with that kernel so I went back into BMM and tried to reflash the ROM so I could boot it and BMM froze while it was flashing. To get out I had to do a force restart. Now my phone won't prompt for BMM and I can only get into the stock recovery and fastboot! What can I do???? Please HELP!
someone must have an idea? Please I have no phone right now!
Do you have an XT912 or XT910?
Flash the fastbopt file ( or SBF FILE?I dont know how to call it. )The reason that the bmm dosent show up is because that it will install itself to keep stay on your stock system.When you force reboot while you flashing a ROM or something,the system was wiped but the bmm dosent even have a chance to install itself to your system.Thats why it didnt show up when you boot.

That makes sense. Unfortunately I have an alltel xt908 RAZR maxx which is identical to the xt912 but is signed differently so I can't use xt912 sbf/fast boot files.

Get safestrap or bmm, install one of them, boot into recovery, create a slot, install rom then gapps, I recommend JBX kernel after flashing rom and gapps.
Reboot and enjoy

Supersu says there's no binary and cannot install them. I went back to stock using my backup and re-flashed with the same issue.
Any ideas how to fix this?
I'm on mdk with cwm and rooted before hyperdrive installation

My version of Philz has the option to re root and install supersu right from recovery. Its under philz settings. Does you're version of cwm have this?

You try installing supersu as a system app from the settings tab? Then try again to install binary.. Just thinking here what I'd try

Hey guys,
I have a vzw galaxy s4 on 4.4.2 kitkat (stock and rooted) and the thing is i installed safestrap and after installing safestrap i tried to install the cm12 5.0.1 rom on my s4. The install completed successfully although it said that it could not mount /system, /systemorig, /internal storage. I installed this on rom slot 1 to try it out and when i tried booting from it all i got was a black screen. I did a little further investigating and i discovered that safestrap would not even do a simple factory reset because it could not mount /system or /internalstorage. I have no micro sd card installed and when i tried manually mounting /system it would not let me check it. ANY HELP IS APPRICIATED THANKS!!
thanks in advance,

Unless you have a GPE S4 or mdk bootloader, you won't be able to flash any aosp/cm/aokp roms. If you are using safestrap 3.72, you can only flash to the stock slot. I would recommend flashing the no wipe nc5 tar file through odin to restore your phone. I would recommend echoe rom or hyperdrive next time

Here is the exact problem you and I were trying to get to the bottom of with 3.75 A03. I've only had it happen twice in the last couple weeks while flashing tons of different ROMs so it's not that big of a deal. Just pointing out. Also, I've not found anyway to fix it except to Odin back to a stock ROM, reroot and then reinstall SS.

@LGtMgG2t - you must have missed the above. The issue here is the OP flashed an incompatible ROM.

Yeah the problem was I flashed a non-touchwiz based ROM which screwed everything up. So after installing the stock NC5 ROM I rooted it and installed ss. I'm currently running the hyperdrive ROM I installed using SS and there are no problems so far!

My bad man. However, I did verify flash a CM or AOSP based ROM definitely gave me that problem too and I had to Odin back to NC5.

Oh another thing I forgot is that once you download towelroot.apk from the website you need to open the app and click "make it ra1n" and you should have root. Once you reboot into the hyperdrive it doesn't come with root so here are the steps:
1. Uninstall super su that comes with the ROM
2. If it is a system app (super su) then install no bloat free from google play and then uninstall super su
3. Install towelroot again
5. Open the app and click "make it ra1n"
6. Open super su after that and it should update its binary
7. Your FINALLY all set

Hello guys.
Could you please explain why should I install ROM in wiped stock slot? And not in the free space of SD-card? I thought that Safestrap was invented to flash and run different ROMs safely from the SD-card (virtual img slot) or free space of internal memory (real slot). Anyway, that was so with my moto razr. It seems I just misunderstood something.
