After installing CyanogenMod 11 on my Galaxy S3, Play Store stopped working. I haven't found 4.4.2 Gapps so I flashed GApps for 4.3.
When it booted it said "Setup Wizard has stopped". Launcher hasn't worked but I could still run Settings. I downgraded to CyanogenMod 10.2 (And 4.3). Now I have a bootloop with no recovery and bootloader. What can I do now? Can I restore it like a normal hard brick?
Please, help!!!

1- download latest cm11 + PAGapps ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942) + In case u wanna use a custom kernel make sure that it supports latest cm11 with r3p2 Mali driver + make sure u have latest recovery installed.
2- go to recovery and make a full wipe 0R flash Mega wipe in case u don't know how to ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1832326)
3- Install custom kernel ( only if u wanna use one if not skip this step)
4- Install cm11
5- Install PAGapps 4.4.2 (latest)
6- Reinstall custom kernel again (Skip this step if ur using the stock CM 11 kernel)
7- Reboot.
By the way ur just stuck in a Boot loop due to incompatibility issues not bricked.
Oh crap I didn't read the last two lines -.- It seems ur bricked.

Download mode yes .
No then its worth trying a usb recovery jig before paying for a repair .
Hello All. I have built the latest version of OmniROM for the e970. I pretty much tweaked the kernel and device tree from CyanogenMod to get it working. The first nightly ran today (7/9/2014). You should see a nightly around 1:00AM (Central Time) from here on out.
I'm using this as my daily driver with no issues.
Please install at your own risk as I am not responsible for damage you may cause to your own device.
Requirements
Your recovery must support Kit-Kat ROMs
TWRP 2.7.1.0 (Compiled with OmniROM 4.4.4 device tree) - This is not flashable. You must either manually load it using dd from adb or an app like Nandroid Manager in the Play Store.
http://goo.gl/hrd5uN
Mini Modular PA GApps
BaNkS GApps
If you want root, you must install is separately. You should only have to flash this the first time.
SuperSU Flashable
Downloads
http://goo.gl/rtpTVL
First installation
- Download gapps and the latest nightly build
- Reboot to recovery
- Flash the nightly build then gapps
- Root access must be installed seperately from http://download.chainfire.eu/451/SuperSU/
- WIPE DATA!!!
- Reboot and enjoy your KitKat
Known Issues
- NFC Not working
- Bluetooth Tethering not working
- GPS not working - Fixed 7/4/2014
- Fixed issue I found with the dialer. 7/8/2014
- I stopped using the vendor files from TheMuppets github as they were incomplete and pulled them directly from my phone. There is a script in the device tree to do it for those who want to build on their own.

using this ROM latest build [07/08/2014] with neighborhood hackers kernel & screen tears a lot, gonna try without it & report.
EDIT: The latest build does not have proper root access :/
I don't think OmniROM has SU built in. It can be downloaded from http://download.chainfire.eu/451/SuperSU/ and flashed in TWRP or CWM. I'll add this to the OP.

Hi Rjwil1086,
I want to know is this ROM enable OTG to connect pen drive or other external devices. As default this device is not enable.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Bharat.
It looks like there is a hack out there based on Nexus 4 code. I have not implemented such a change to the kernel, and I don't think the gproj kernel comes with it (anyone correct me if I'm wrong). Right now I'm focusing on optimization and bug fixes. Once I feel comfortable that everything is working as intended I may start modifying things.

Clean flashed the latest nightly today and found that NFC doesn't work. It doesn't turn on. Can anyone confirm ?
I think there is a file missing from the proprietary files. I'll try to fix it this weekend

Thanks. Another thing I want to point out is that this app WORD WEB DICTIONARY which I use on a regular basis gives an error of no external sd card detected. Which is weird since the sd card is present. I had the same issue on stock 4.4.2 rom that has been ported for e970. Another app that ZEDGE fails to download anything even though the WiFi is connected same behavior on the stock rom with it too.
Photosphere/HDR/Panorama working on this rom?

I even tried with re download but again same problem. I also tried TWRP but no luck. CM11 nightly is installing well on CWM as well as TWRP but facing issue with OMNIROM.
required your expert help.
I just installed the 7/23 build and had no issues. I am running TWRP 2.7.1.0 that I compiled. Here is the link http://goo.gl/hrd5uN. This is not a flashable zip. You will need to flash it from adb using dd or one of those fancy apps available on the Play Store that will flash recovery images. I like Nandroid Manager, but I'm sure others will work too. I will also add this to the OP, and this can be compiled using the same device tree as OmniROM in the OP.
I haven't forgotten about the NFC issue and I found out Bluetooth tethering isn't working either. I'm going to try to get to these this week but work is keeping me busy for the moment.

I'm not a camera person, so I'm not sure if this is working. I can't seem to get it to create photosphere shots but panorama is working. HDR isn't an option with the built in camera app. Please let me know if the camera isn't working as intended and if you can fix it let me know and we can incorporate the fix in the device tree.

Yes, then I did a full wipe, flash the cm and flash the benzo gapps, now its work normally.
OBS: I tried the Pico, Nano and Stock Open gapps.
Today I managed to install the Open GAPPS, I found that was the CWM which was not compatible.
Instalaei the TWRP installed and normally without errors.
can u specify .. do u got the same error .. like i got
i will try to install the latest cm 13 and benzo gapps ... lets see what happens
Worked ... I tried with gapps and twrp ............... Thanks a lot
I had this problem: After flashing cm13 and gapps, the device booted until attempting to start GoogleServicesFramework, then it crashed, rebooted, but got stuck for ever at the cm boot animation.
After upgrading from the ancient clockworkmod recovery I had on the device to latest twrp, I could flash cm13 and gapps (opengapps nano), and the device booted fine.
My phone is Galaxy S4 Mini (i9195i). I've installed TWRP 3.3.1 and flashed using this ROM ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-mini/development/rom-aospextended-rom-v7-2-t4107397 ).
The ROM works fine but whenever I try to install GApps (open_gapps-arm64-10.0-pico-20200715) it fails with "Error 64".
I've tried wiping the caches after installing the ROM, rebooting into recovery after installing the ROM, mounting /system before I try to install GApps, downgrading the recovery to TWRP 3.0.2, downgrading the GApps to earlier versions and I've just rooted. The only thing that let me install GApps was installing an arm version instead of arm64. My device is 100% arm64. This resulted in the OS not booting. I left it with a spinning wheel for over 2.5hrs. Reflashed without the arm GApps and it booted in 90s.
Please can someone help me!?
Thank you!

Hi, apparently from what I read here: https://github.com/TeamWin/Team-Win-Recovery-Project/issues/1070#issuecomment-463335444
And here:
https://github.com/TeamWin/Team-Win-Recovery-Project/issues/1070#issuecomment-562900489
This is a TWRP issue that can be solved by updating TWRP to its latest version or by using a non official build that have been patched. So I advice you to contact the dev who built TWRP for your device, or keep installing arm Gapps to your phone (if it works).
Have a good day
Also, you can try that : https://github.com/TeamWin/Team-Win-Recovery-Project/issues/1070#issuecomment-531326172
Or you can try boot TWRP from fastboot :
