I'm posting this here because I don't have enough posts yet for the actual Liquidsmooth thread in development.
My phone is an XT912 flashed to Page Plus.
I was running the 3/27 spyder (if I remember correctly) version since March with little to no problems. Yesterday, I decided to update the rom to the 0806 spyder version on slot 2 (Safestrap) with PA mini GAPPS. I first did a dirty install over the previous version (read on the thread that some people had no problems doing that).
Things seemed to go fine for a few hours until I tried to delete some files on my sd card and internal storage while it was plugged into my computer. Some folders showed that they were empty (which they weren't), they were fine when I checked in ES File Explorer afterwards. So I rebooted into recovery to wipe the cache and dalvik. Reboot the phone and system ui immediately was stopping, over and over again. I got the phone back into recovery, did some cache and dalvik wipes, reinstalled, wiped again, and rebooted. System ui has stopped.
I booted back into recovery, factory reset slot 2, wiped caches, reinstalled the rom and gapps, another wipe, and rebooted. Profit! The only thing I had to do was futz with some settings to get 3G working again. All was well for the rest of the day and night until I decided to update Viper4Android. Viper rebooted the phone and I was back to the system ui crashing again. Meanwhile, I had rebooted the phone several times to fix the 3G and all was fine. Tried the whole full wipe and reinstall a couple of times (as per one of the posts that said to wipe, reinstall, wipe cache, reboot system, boot to recovery, wipe caches, reinstall, wipe caches, and finally reboot system. No go.
I saw that I'm not the only one this is happening to in the LS thread. Anyone have any ideas? I really can't get in to change any settings because the error starts as soon as the phone is booted. I have to try and get it to reboot in between tapping "ok" on the error and tapping "reboot" and "recovery".
I have created rom slot 1, installed liquidsmooth build 07/06, it is stuck on boot animation i did all like factory reset wipe cache dalvik cache... again i installed by removing data and system partitions and it was installed and started but it got hang... i again went to recovery wipe cache and dalvik again stuck on animation logo.... i tried before CM rom it was working fine...

Is the phone branded Verizon? If it is, use the Spyder version. If not, UTMS Spyder.
I gave up on the Liquidsmooth rom. I went with AxxionKat and it runs so much better. Not one problem.

since new nightly build already available (LS-KK-v3.2-2014-08-16), it will be good idea to upgrade, just flashed this morning & everything is fine except moving from dalvik to ART caused bootloop..
I'll stick with AxxionKat. I've had absolutely no issues with it thusfar.

Hi,
I am currently running CM9 Alpha2 ICS.
I thought of upgrading to CherryKang 0.9.2, I followed the steps below, but after install CherryKang would not come up.. I see the dual boot menu and when the cyanogen mod menu item is selected it blanks out and then reboots again and I see the dual boot menu again.
I did full wipe, Factory reset, Advanced-Dalvik Cache and also under Mounts and Storage System wipe, and lastly Wipe Cache. After install i did Factory Reset again and Wiped Cache again. Rebooted Touchpad and nothing comes up.
I also tried unsintall thru ACMEUnInstaller and then put CherryKang 0.9.2 in the cminstall directory and the install process did not install the CherryKang 0.9.2
What am I missing?
Thanks

0. 9.3 is out now, so you might as well install that.
Wipe /delete factory reset, wipe dalvik cache and install.
Make sure you have a good download (check md5).
No need to wipe /format anything after you install (I don't).
It should work.......
Don't forget to have a good backup in case things don't work.
I tried to use 0.9.3 but goes into a boot loop as before. Is it because I am also doing a "system format" under Mount and Storage?
I don't think cherry will install from cminstall since it doesn't start with update... or gapps...
I've always had to install it via CWM. I had to run the boot image cleaner and wipe everything before installing.

I did the update thru CWM. It did not work and goes into boot loop.
What else can I do
Are you still formatting system every time? Try skipping that. Just wipe caches and install ROM then gapps.

If you used Odin kies wouldn't be involved. I had similar problem. I did a complete wipe (both caches, system and data) then installed via Odin again. Now all is good.

thank you, that worked.
if anyone has this problem again save yourself some time. reboot into recovery and factory reset. Worked for me.

also rebooted into stock recovery and factory resetted. FInally booted, give it some time (likke 5-10 minutes) after the ATT logo freeze, Its probably building the bloatware cache.
Keep in mind installing this rom is a change of rom base and not just a little tweek -- all the wipes we usually do and backups of everything should be done to ensure a clean install.
It is a nice stock rom, and I was shocked at the amount of at&t bloat included.

Lololol bloatware cache
It's building the dalvik cache, just like every Rom does when you wipe dalvik cache, or factory reset as dalvik is on the data partition.
AT&T are just freaking amateurs, they didn't make the boot animation loop at all... so once it's done and is building the cache. It appears to have just stopped there.
SS v 3.11 (as stated in instructions)
CM 10.1.2
XT912
rom-slot1
The first time installing it on rom-slot1, it worked beautifully. Then wifi and MMS wasn't working, so i wiped/cleared cache and dalvik, then tried to re-install the same zip along with GAPPS and now it's not working whatsoever.
When starting, i hit search to continue, it does a little vibrate, and it stays black. I've waited up to 10 minutes before rebooting.
Any ideas?
Edit:
Just recreated rom-slot1, wiped system/cache/dalvik, installed cm10.1.2 and gapps from the external SD, and rebooted. It's been on a pure black screen for 8 minutes after passing SS.
Create slot, factory reset, install cm, install gapps, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, reboot. Need to wipe caches after install and before boot. If your WiFi and radio are down, just reboot it again normally. Should correct the problem.
I got it down!
Part of the issue is that i was restoring system files with titanium backup. Once i only restored app+data, it worked better.
I recreated slot 1, factory/system/cache/dalvik wipe, installed cm and gapps, and it worked perfectly! just had to restart my phone once or twice to get data/wifi.
Thanks!
Hello!
I've been having really really weird problems with my phone and CWM.
Right now I have latest stable CM installed.
Today I decided to switch to ParanoidAndroid.
I got the right ROM, but I installed the wrong google apps the 4.2.2 one.
Now I get a crash when I try to use the keyboard so I decided to flash it again.
I went back into CWM.
Factory reset, deleted cache, wiped dalvik cache.
Installed the same .zip file I did the first time for Paranoid Android except I didn't install Google Apps.
I restart the phone and it doesn't seem to have flashed, it's the one with 4.2.2 GAPPS.
I've tried wiping it 3 times.
I decided to check internal storage on my phone and this is what I see.
I don't think it's supposed to look like this after I just did a factory reset. Right?

(I can't post links yet)
Right now I just want to hard reset my phone and install PA.
EDIT: I just Factory Reset, Wiped Cache and dalvik restarted my phone and I'm back to the PA ROM with GAPPS 4.2.2
via CWM
go to mounts & storage >> Format system
then
wipe data/factory reset
wipe dalvik cache
flash ROM
Flash Gapps
Flash Desired kernel (if any)
Reboot
everything should be Fine
And for next time I suggest you use philz recovery, it has a clean install options in wipe data/factory reset, it should help you
I rooted my device a few days ago in order to stop the 4.1 ota update, I am currently on 4.0.4 and the device is an xt912.
Today I decided to install safestrap and after installing the recovery and booting into it, I backed up the stock rom.
After backing it up, I clicked on reboot to system.
The device then jumped into a bootloop.
So I cleared cache, dalvik cache, and even factory reset but it won't pass the DROID eye.
So I created a new slot and restored my early backup and to my suprise, it booted up.
I then rebooted back to recovery and cleared system, data,cache and dalvik cache of stock slot and restored the same back up there and rebooted, and it booted up nicely. But after that the recovery kind of disappeared. So I installed safestrap apk again and rebooted to recovery to make sure it flashed.
I was able to boot into the recovery but as I tried to boot back into the rom, I got stuck in a boot loop again.
My problem is if I reinstall the recovery, the device gets stuck in a bootloop, unless I wipe everything and restore my backup.
Also when turn off the phone and connect it to wall charger, the battery sign doesn't show up again.
Can u guys help me out??
Doesn't matter if I loose my stuff.
I just want a working 4.0.4 with root and to be able to charge the device when it's off.
(BTW my version of safestrap is 3.3.0 I think. Its 3 point something.)
I need help ASAP.
