Hi I have tried to flash CM 12.1 to my S3 mini, so i downloaded ROM, did backup (but it went wrong, i think it didnt fully back up) and wipe cache, data and davik. After that i wanted to flash my ROM, but error appeared, that Installation aborted. So I tried to restore backup but it said "MD5 mismatch" and if I try to reboot It goes to recovery mode everytime. I read that flashing rom can be aborted because of old CMW ( I have v6.0.2.7 ) and if you get the newest, installation is ok, but what can I do? I cannot go to normal boot to Android and if I connect my phone to PC it reacts, but as unknown device and I cant open storage of my phone, so I cant update CMW recovery to flash my ROM.
EDIT: Now i get into ADB and sideload, everything going well but when I tried to install rom it said * failed to write data 'protocol fault (couldn't read status): Invalid argument' *
*Bump* i have the same problem..... not getting any where with this can some one help me out ....
SOLVED! I flashed stock official samsung ROM throught ODIN and after I used TWRP recovery instead of CWM and flashed CM 12.1 .

hi there!
i just flashed the official rom to my htc hero to get the latest radio.
T-Mobile DE
RUU_Hero_T-Mobile_DE_2.73.111.26_release_signed_NoDriver.exe
from here: showthread.php?t=559622
now im trying to flash the latest villian rom 12.
if i boot the phone via home-and-power into recovery mode i just get the orange/white warning triangle. if i hold home-and-power again i have three options: reboot the system, apply the update, and wipe data/factory reset. if i try to flash the rom i just get
e: cant't open /cache/recovery/command
-- install from sd card
...
e: no signature (785 files)
e: verification failed
installation aborted.
im trying to flash via the bootloader (back-and-power) and access the phone via fastboot my device will be recognized but i can load any recovery rom.
i entered:
"fastboot-windows boot recovery-RA-heroc-v1.5.2.img"
i also tried the latest recovery rom from here: showthread.php?t=561124... and others, that i found on different sites and threads.
this is the message i get:
"downloading boot.img ... FAILED (remote: not allow)
i also tried to flashing the recovery rom via flashrec.
these are the versions i used:
flashrec-1.1.2-20090909
flashrec-1.1.3-20091107-2
flashrec-20090815
but i cant backup and therefore flash a recovery-rom.
so are all my hopes to flash a custom rom to my phone gone because i flashed the official update or is there any way to maybe downgrade again?
im new to the rom scene, any help would be much appreciated.
cheers.
For now you are essentially up the creek without a paddle.
I'm not aware of a way to reverse this issue
Goes to show you should never flash anything that comes from HTC...
http://villainrom.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=28 explains why this shouldn't be done. Not much help though

Guys can someone please help me.....i own an unlocked S III I747 (initially bought with telus)
I tired flashing samsung ROM with the vanilla rootbox 3.8 ROM. I followed all the steps:
1. Rooted Phone - installed CWM and titanium, backed up all my stuff, wiped all data.
2. Booted phone in rocovery mode, and when flashing RootBox 3.8 zip, it gets stuck with the error: signature verification failed.
Tired like 4 times, always getting the same error. then performed another wipe data, booted up, then re-rooted again with odin, then booted back in recovery mode and tried flashing with rootbox ROM again, still no luck, keep on getting the same error.
now, my phone randomly keeps on loosing signal. Why am i not able to install a custom ROM on the S III I747?
thanks

Are you trying to flash an i9300 ROM on a i747?
Baaaad idea
Hi everyone,
Im writing because I got in a bit of a trouble installing custom ROMs. I have installed 3 different ROMs, I wanted to try them for myself, and after that my phone does not work. I have researched and I am asking for help because I do not know what caused the error.
What I did:
Install clockworkmod as recovery tool in phone and Cynamongenmod following this tutorial http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_i9305. ----> Everything works fine except the camera (it is a known issue)
Install paranoid android to see if the camera bug what fixed, (it wasn't) ----> Everything works fine except the camera
Install pacman (pac_i9305-release-20141231.zip) , but i didnt install gapps ----> Everything works fine, even the camera!!
Try to install gapps for the version 4.4.4 to my understand (pa_gapps-stock-4.4.4-20150208-signed.zip). -----> Clockwork recovery tool says that can not install. Researched about it and flashed Team Win Recovery Project v2.3.3.0
Installed gapps with TWRP -----> Booted pacman but get stuck on error like "can not execute gapps"
Got a bit frightened and installed Clockwork revovery tool and Cyanmongenmod again----> The phone boots but NO PHONE SERVICE WORKING!!, I got in panic
Used the recovery image -----> The phone boots (even the phone service) but I get a error on gapps "gapps stoped"
Installed TWRP again and try to install Pacman rom and give me the errors:
Making sysmlinks....
set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
E: error in /data/media/0/sideload.zip (status7)
Reserached a bit and found: http://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-fix-a-broken-rom-flash-in-certain-kitkat-roms/
Im confused and now I just dont know what can I do to get my phone back to normal, I dont mind it is with the factory version [:'( ] or with a custom rom that works fine [=)]. Thanks in advance to everyone
Thanks for your help in advance =)
Hello
I had installed CM 11 4.4 on my Galaxy S2. Today I decided to downgrade it to 2.3.x so I used Odin and took stock 2.3.4 ROM with PIT/PDA/PHONE/CSC.
At the installation , there was a error in the phone - data 0 error (or something like that, I didnt remember). After the installation process in Odin, the phone stuck at Samsung logo. I can go into the Download Mode. Now I cant flash any ROM because I have errors in Odin. I tried to use the OneClick tool but it dont work. Its my first phone brick so idk what should I do. Please help
This is a error after I flashed 2.3.4 :
E:failed to mount /data (Unknown error:0) E: install_application_for_customer:Cant mount / data your storage not prepared yet, please UI menu for format nad reboot actions, copy application failed
I repaired this error but I still cant boot into the phone menu. It stuck at the boot Samsung logo. Wipe data/cache is not the fix. I tried different ROMs and kernels.
Hi!
I can't boot my device. When I try to turn it on always appears the following message: "custom binary blocked by frp". So I'm trying to flash a stock rom to recover my phone. But the problem is that I didn't install a custom recovery and Odin don't recognize my device plugged and in download mode. So I think that my last chance is to flash a stock rom from the stock recovery (the default recovery) but when I tried to do so I always found the same error: "E: footer is wrong E: signature verification failed". That error is caused because the rom I'm trying to installs maybe?
If anyone could help me I will preciate it so much,
Any help will be usefull,
Thanks
Sorry about that post
The problem is already solved (I flashed a stock rom using odin) I'm sorry about that post. I don't know how to erase it.
