Hi all,
i have a rooted s3 for a while now with original rom, today i tried to install some flash via original recovery mode but i was getting the e signature failure message. i installed the clockwored recovery custom mode and went to install zip from sdcard and installed the 4 files ( 3 apps and 1 kernel) . now when i reboot i just got the attached image. do u think in some way the original rom was removed and i should install a new rom?? please help!

It's look like a bootloop.
Try to enter from recovery for wipe data /factory reset ,wipe dalvik and wipe dalvik cache.

i tried this and didnt work, now i realized that i installed siyah kernel by mistake, how can i go back to the original rom..and no i didnt do any back up for the rom!
What doidn´t work exactly?
Entering recovery or doing a factory reset?
If you are able to enter recovery mode, try as "KeTuRr74" described. After that flash your rom again and try to boot without flashing a new kernel.
Original means for you? Samsung and provider stock rom?

Try to install an other kernel for your rom if it's bootloop with the kernel.

No probably you can't.
The previous rom has been erased by installing your new rom

yes into the internal Storage
Install any ROM after full wipe: system, data, cache, dalvik cache and, if existing, the Android-maps in internal&external storage. There will be no essential rests of the previous ROM!
If you find something, post it.

It's an emulated sdcard.Is totally normal when you flash a new rom.When you flash any Rom you will just wipe data not emulated storage

Try to update cmw recovery to the latest one. Just update it threw rom manager and make sure you pick the right phone and carrier in the list.
I tried doing so,bur i only get like 7 phones from that list

You'll need to flash CM9 first, then the options will show up. Its looking for a specific name in your build.prop, and CM9 or AOKP should get it to show up.
Tried doing cm9 does not work also

after you flash CWM recovery.
did you wipe cache partition and wipe dalvik cache?
wiping those before flashing new rom usually solve the problem.
i usually wipe data/factory reset too but doesn't require
i suggest you back up your un-corrupted efs folder contain your IMEI first before you flash anything.
dont be like me. =)

Weird problem with my phone chaps, can you please help?
I can flash CM9 & CM10 with no issues. I can flash it via restore (CWM) or through a wipe.
I can flash CheckROM V4 Via ODIN with no issues, but I am unable to flash anything I download through the kitchen. I get a bootloop or it gets stuck at the Boot up Samsung logo.
Similarly, I am unable to flash any other ROM apart from CM9/CM10 via recovery. It gets stuck at the boot logo. I've wiped all the caches, and even tried to flash checkrom via Odin to see if this resolves the issues, but unfortunately not.
Is this a case of flashing an original Samsung ROM, then re-rooting and starting over?
I will be grateful if anyone can offer some assistance!
Are you doing a full wipe factory reset in recovery before flashing a ROM? you mentioned you wiped cache thats it

Maybe Megawipe or Superwipe script can help. You can try it if you haven't gone with flashing original firmware.

You have to use cwm to restore. As posted above you might need to root.

Probably a corrupted sdcard, save important files to the pc and format the card from the phone. Place the files back, see if you are rooted and if not reroot with CF-Root and try again. Do not superwipe this time.Just do data/factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik cache and format system and data in mounts and storage.
Hello, sorry for reviving this old thread, but it seems that this would be a logical place to ask if it's recommended to do a super wipe before every non stock ROM flash.

No. Just wipe data, cache, dalvick, and format system.
My problem goes like this: The cwm installations goes fine, but when i boot, it will remain the same, like i didn't install it. Any help?
you mean you are booting in the old rom ?
or you are stuck at some white screen ?
or stuck in bootloop ?
follow proper procedure while flashing rom ....
wipe data / reset
wipe cache
format system
wipe dalvik cache
install zip from sd
wipe data
reboot

I had installed CM 10.1 (Unofficial) for Galaxy Grand Duos.This one worked fine for me.
After that i i tried to install GENNXT ROM Android 4.2.2 for Grand.I tried wiping cache, data partitons etc. But No effect !!!
when i press the power button, The phone just shows "samsung galaxy grand logo" and reboots ...
Still iam able to revert to the CM 10.1 (Unofficial).
What will be the possible cause for the boot loop after installing GENNXT ROM Android 4.2.2.Please help me.!
For gennxt ROM : you should have android version 4.2.2 and cwm recovery then go to recovery and wipe data then wipe dalvik cache and then format system. Now download the zip from SD card and reboot system.
If it still gets stuck on boot the flash any other firmware

before flashing any rom you have to go back to the stock rom
it is a choice but that's better
from your question I understand that you flashed the new rom over cm 10 may be that's causing the boot problem so first flash the stock and then flash the custom rom you want to install

helo friend wiping data cache and dalvik cache is good
but wiping system?? that will format the rom and you cant boot
after that you will need to reinstall or reflash the rom in order to boot so complete the quotes carefully

as i mentioned, Installed CWM & installed cynogen mod, Working perfectly.
Then i tried to restore backup of another device(Which is exactly the same model.) but not of the modded phone.which result in boot loop!!
while completing the flashing of stock rom: it confirms that "this will install stock recovery," I confirmed with "Yes"...
But the fact is :i can still flash the cyanogen mod!!
do i ve to use Odin ?
