I've flashed CM12, Liquid Smooth Lollipop, no problems. Coming from stock TMo 4.4.2 rooted, TWRP 2.8.1 and most recently 2.8.4. I place the rom and gapps on my sd, boot into TWRP, advance wipe data, system, cache, dalvik. Then i install the rom. Then i install gapps. Reboot.
I suppose you do all this as well?

I've had to go into advanced wipe and wipe everything listed save my ext SD card when jumping between kitkat 4.4 and lollipop for the same problem your having. Once that's done though I've tried out successfully just about every lollipop ROM on xda

[Q] Cyanogenmod 10.2 stuck on circle

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.
T989 Tears
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

Phone bootloops after rebooting freshly installed rom

Just as the title says.
Here is the series of events that led up to this.
Picked up a Moto X yesterday and am giving the phone to my father. I factory wipe, clear data and cache, and also format data via TWRP. Install a copy of CleanROM 1.6 Odex on there since that has been my most stable ROM to date. Boots up fine after installation, so I reboot into recovery to create a backup of the ROM for him in case he does anything that messes it up. Go to reboot the phone after a successful backup and the phone hangs at the Galaxy S4 bootscreen.
This is where I'm at now. I have tried everything that I can to get the phone to boot up, and the only thing that will work is to do a data format again and a fresh install. That's all well and good, until I reboot the phone and then it goes right back to not booting. I never took the ME7 update or applied an ME7 ROM. Is there a way to fix the data partition issue that I believe I'm having? Is my only option to Odin back to stock?

2.5.0.2 I believe. What is the best version to use? It doesn't matter too much at this point since I ended up using ODIN to flash back to stock and re-rooted. I do want to install a custom ROM for him though. What version of TWRP is the best?
Check out this thread - similar issue solved.

I had the same issue a while ago and fixed it like you did. Others are saying to "fix permissions" in TWRP
after wiping data.:good:

Phone has stopped working - need really fast help!

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!?

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?

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.

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

You did make the mandatory wipes after installing the ROM, right?. You must wipe cache and dalvik, and preferably you should also wipe system and data (NOT memory or sdcard) before flashing a ROM. If you don't do this, you'll probably end up where you are, stuck on boot.

Before flashing the ROM do a factory Reset, followed by Wipe Cache and Wipe Dalvik Cache. After flashing the file, When installation completes, make sure you again Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache. I've tried this procedure and though a novice, i never ever got into bootloop.
