I want to install CM12 in Stock Slot (SafeStrap 3.75 - umts_spyder), but not sure whether it is right.

Of course you can. But imo, you should install most stable rom on stock partition.

Well, you must choose stock slot in safestrap, then reboot phone.

So you must reflash stock JB with RSD Lite. But you lose safestrap partitions and you must install it again.

Safestrap 3.75 should be compatible with all roms that are 3.73 compatible.

try deleting rom slot and recreate slot?
what rom version are you using?
I just tried miui_xt912_santajin_4.10.10_75c338fa2e_4.4
and it installed on both rom slot 1 and 2, without error,
using Safestrap-spyder-v3.75-unused-partitions.apk, on my XT908, should be the same as Safestrap-umts_spyder-v3.75.apk

Did you install a rom on stock slot?
if so did you backup stock rom, before installing a rom over it?
if so, restore backup. if not maybe someone can upload a backup of stock rom,
if not, you will need to flash stock system.img, if you want stock rom.
I have uploaded a copy of my stock rom nandroid backup for my XT908, but have no idea how well it will work on a XT910

Then try TWRP. Flashing the latest version is the fix that usually works. Maybe check the MD5sum and make sure it matches.

Yes you will need root. If you want to flash it in CWM you can do that also. There should be a thread in the T-Mobile forums giving you a link to the Goo page

I know the error you are talking about and have already read your post. It is always fixed with TWRP by updating. Your issue may be in part because you don't have root. You can root with the Toolkit as opposed to flashing a prerooted ROM.
Also is CWM the recovery you are using or are you trying to flash in the stock recovery? If you're trying to flash on the stock recovery that's your issue.

The TWRP downloads from Goo, from the actual website and not the app, give you the option to download and use img or zips.
One quick question, how do you not have root? I am pretty sure you should have root, if for no other reason than to make installing and updating TWRP way faster and easier and to use Tibu to back up your apps and app data to take over to your new ROM.

A lot say CWM is the preferred but the community, at least here, seems to like and prefer TWRP for their flashables. Not to mention we have an amazing dev who constantly updates with bugfixes when he hears about issues with TWRP.
Also another answer i need is how you installed CWM? Via ROM Manager, IMG file, etc? And again, where did you get your ROM and have you made 1000% sure that it is built for your device?

AOSP roms cause no boot?

Whenever I flash a AOSP based rom my device will not boot. But if I flash a touchwiz rom its all good. Any ideas why? Same process for them both. Though I have to flash gapps after aosp.

The obvious question: what build is your phone? Are you MDK with LOKI-enabled custom recovery?
If so, did you flash the proper kernel to support your ROM? AOSP ROMs won't work with the stock kernel.
If you're not running MDK build, then you can't run AOSP-based ROMs.
Using TWRP. And yes im on mdk. Not flashing any kernals.

If your mdk have you tried wiping dalvick and cache before rebooting and after flashing? Might get you over the top.
Is your recovery twrp 2.5.0.2? If not you might consider using it.

I could be wrong but i think the first TWRP recovery that supported Loki exploit was 2.5.0.2 but that doesn't explain why you are able to flash TW roms as that requires Loki as well. Make sure you're not on 2.6.0.0 I did hear some issues with TWRP higher then 2.5.0.2 but they may have been ironed out. I have stayed with 2.5.0.2 and likely wont update ever from it unless i have to.

Yeah there is a flashable some where in here. Just flash it in twrp that you have installed now. It will revert it back to the older version. Good practice after flashing the replacement recovery is to reboot to recovery after install to make sure it took before rebooting to system.

Did you try going into twrp and go to advanced then fix permission. . that usually works
So it seems anything above 4.2.2 will cause no boot for me. I get stuck on the samsung custom screen. Have not tried the fix permissions thing though. Doubtful that will fix this problem.

flashing ?

while flashing i usually see this E: unable to mount /osh roms flash fine but didnt know what this means. thanks

Ok so it says select partitions to mount: my phone has the micro sdcard and internal storage and chache checked and then you should just push the back button and it should be mounted. the only other thing is go to advanced menu and click fix permissions. I think it also could be something with your download.
Mine has the same checked. I fixed permissions. What are you referring to when you say download?

Tydiamond11 means the ROM you are trying to install.
He says download because, it may have been corrupted when you tried to download a copy so the "download" is bad, not the available ROM itself.

/osh has to do with lapdock/webtop... essentially the ROM you are loading doesn't support it, which isn't surprising, so it is telling you it couldn't mount anything in that partition.
Nothing to worry about.
