Redoing backup . , And make sure when you are creating your ROM slot you are using up all available space. Try deleting the slot and rebuilding.

[Q] Help with messed up XT910 MAXX

Hi friends,
Here's my situation, would be very happy if any of you can give me some advice on how to solve this.
1. My stock romslot can no longer boot. I also cannot restore Nandroid to it. Looks like /int is gone.
2. My 2nd romslot also won't boot DWiz JBX rom so I'm stuck with BBM
3. What I am trying to do is clean up stock romslot and 2nd romslot, then install retail China version on stock romslot and then maybe install a 2nd custom rom on system2 (2nd romslot). Haven't decided because it's so much trouble.
4. I've been using BMM all along. Didn't touch Fastboot, adb or Safestrap (in fact, I only know how to use BMM...)
Finally, any guide to restoring the whole phone back to the beginning? (unroot, restore kernel, rom etc)
Thanks!

[Q] MI1 attempt to use Safestrap Failed

I have rooted, installed Safestrap, installed Hyperdrive as directed in the youtube video titled "Galaxy S4 Safe Strap Hyper Drive rom install MI1", but the ROM won't boot (I don't see the loading animation).
Clue: When my phone boots I receive the following terminal message:
Code:
Updating partition details...
E:error opening '/data/app/mcRegistry
E:error: I/O error
Running Boot script...
Finished running boot script...
I get a similar set of messages when I try to install the MI1 modules.
Any thoughts as to why I can't install the MI1 modules? And why Hyperdrive won't boot after I install it with Safestrap?
(I know I'm on MI1)
Thanks!

You set up a ROM slot and flashed the ROM to that slot? You chose the stock kernel or safestrap kernel in aroma installer? Upon reboot you don't see the safestrap splash screen at all?

I use stock kernal, and I do see safestrap upon boot. I can boot to the stock ROM if I choose no problems.

I would delete the Rom slot and start over on the install. Be sure your MD5 is correct and to eliminate issues I suggest downloading hyperdrive 10.2 directly to your computer and then copy over to your extsd card. Make sure on your settings for the ROM slot for size. I don't remember offhand what I made mine .
even if you select the "safestrap kernel" in the aroma installer, I always flash the kernel module. You do this immediately after flashing the ROM and BEFORE first boot. I have never had a wifi issue whatsoever in doing this method.

As far as size is concerned I have given it all I could (about 7GB) because I don't care to swap ROMs often, I'm looking for one I want to stick with.
Thanks, I will give your advice a try.
The problem was that I was attempting to run the latest version of Hyperdrive (11). 10.2 is the version of Hyperdrive that works with Safestrap. Thanks for the help!
Incidentally I installed the GPE rom. Its great, but seems to start running slow after 12 hours or so. A reboot fixes the problem. Google Maps runs slower on this ROM than on my Galaxy Nexus which is disappointing. If only touchwiz wasn't so ugly!

Yes. You have to be careful what you load. Hash is getting close to have safestrap functional for mj7/mdk2 users. ..4.3 base

[Q] Rooted S4 (Verizon) no Nandroid backup / restore option in recovery

Hi Guys, and thank you in advance for reading this post, I have looked in several places and cannot find a solution. When I boot into recovery, there is no option to backup and restore, I am rooted on Stock Android 4.2.2. Baseband: VRUAMDK. I tried switching out SD cards from my extFAT 64GB card to a FAT32 GB card, no go, I am also running into the same exact issue on my galaxy note 8.0. If anyone could help me out I would highly appreciate it! Thank you in advance! I really want to try a different ROM but want to perform a nandroid backup just in case. Thanks!

Which custom recovery are you running?

I downloaded ROM manager because I was under the assumption that I was running CWM. I'm still a newbie so please excuse my ignorance. I did root using Odin.

Did you install a custom recovery? Stock recovery doesn't allow you to make nandroid backups or flash roms via recovery. If rooted you could try latest installing recovery via Rom manager. Or flash a custom recovery via odin.

Thanks for the response, I tried installing CWM via rom manager but it doesn't seem to be working at all, tried several times and nothing, how can I install via Odin? I cannot find instructions on doing this for the Verizon Galaxy S4 (SCH-I545) I still have not accepted the OTA update from Verizon so I am still fully rooted and running stock android version 4.2.2
TWRP seems to be the go to recovery for the S4 on Verizon
I think I finally have it, and contrary of what I read it seems to be working on my 64GB exFAT SD card. I will let you know shortly if it backed everything up
The problem was CWM wouldn't install so I went here teamw.in/project/twrp2/181 and just downloaded GooManager and read their instructions: Tap menu then hit Install OpenRecoveryScript. Tap Yes. Verify that the filename displays your device's code name and hit Yes. The file will download and your device will install the recovery automatically.
I then booted into recovery and BAM! there was the backup option, I have 10GB to backup so I needed it to backup on my SD card, thought it would be a problem since I read that it wasn't possible to perform a nandroid backup on a 64GB SD formatted as exFAT but it seems to be working, will update once complete, it might take a while to backup all that data

[q] XT910/safestrap 3.72/stock slot malfunction

Hi, i've faced the following issue:
Phone: RAZR XT910
Firmware: OTA ICS 4.0.4, 673.94.328.XT910.PSHAsiaRetail.en.03
Root
SS v.3.72
After installing SS, on first enter in SS was made full backup of stock ROM.
After that (have no idea why) reboot in stock slot caused animated M-logo loop.
Hard reboot allows to get in SS. Stock ROM backup was restored to slot 1 and booted successfully.
So the phone alive, but on slot 1, and stock slot seems to be unfunctional.
Tried to recover backup in stock slot, but it boots to the mentioned M-logo loop.
I want to get the stock slot back)
Should I try to reinstall SS (can mess slot 1 boot?), Or try stock recovery, or try to install custom ROM to the stock slot, or something else?
I would appreciate any advice.
Thanks..

I would recommend a clean slate. Flash to stock and start all over. Thats usually what I do.

Do you mean flash using RSD lite?

Yes thats what to do. Anyway once you make a backup, create another slot and install a custom rom and use that slot
Thanks for reply. I think my problem is solved. I wiped stock rom slot and installed CN 11. It has booted successfully.

How to install stock rom after root & safestrap

Hello All,
I rooted and installed safestrap. Then took a backup, installed open_gapps. I can not access my OS, as it's stuck in language selection screen in Google Wizard.
Is there anyway to roll back and install the stock rom again.
Thank you
Which Safestrap version do you have installed? Can you still access Safestrap recovery? Do you have the backup on the HDX?
If you have a backup of the stock slot, you should be able to restore it. Note that you MUST NOT restore a backup of a secondary slot to the stock slot! Would brick the device.
And don't wipe system in Safestrap, especially if you use Safestrap v3.7x!
