OK, so I successfully S-Off'd this phone using DirtyRacun. I backed up the stock functioning ROM, then went to flash Viperlte 2.2.0. Went through all the Aroma installer options, then went to flash. It breezed through the install process, leaving the phone without any operating system on it (Recovery didn't actually flash anything). Tried both CWM and TWRP, and same results each time.
So, I decided to simply try flashing the boot.img in the downloads for Viperlte 2.2.0 via fastboot, and after doing that, the phone still won't boot, and now whenenver I try to reboot into recovery, recovery flashes for a second, and then screen goes blank and boot loops.
Tried reflashing the stock boot.img and reflashed recoveries, same results each time. I'm at a loss. I don't understand what got messed up by fastboot flashing the boot img.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

how did you install recovery, the first time you must use adb and flash the recovery.img.
command is: fastboot flash recovery(what ever here).img example: fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.2.9-fireball.img
Ok, have the phone booting again (flashed ruu, then reflashed the dirtyracun hboot). Question still remains, why did I start bootlooping recovery after flashing the boot.img? And why wouldn't the Rom actually flash in recovery?
Again, any insight is appreciated.

Yeah, did that. I was in recovery (TWRP) when I tried flashing Viperlte, but it never flashed the Rom after selecting all the options in Aroma. It stated that it did, but there's no way it did. It took less than a second to go from "installing" to "complete".
So, something is funky there.

I was on the latest release of TWRP (2.4.4.0). I have a recovery log from when it wouldn't flash the ROM. I'll spare the unnecessary strings, and just post the error itself:
error: file_write: write: I/O error
Installer Error (Status 1)
Edit: Just to add, I just successfully flashed SuperSU on the stock ROM using the same TWRP version (2.4.4.0).

I appreciate the suggestions. I'll give a few things a try.
Looks like it was the recovery, afterall. Flashed 2.3.3.0, and the ROM is currently flashing as we speak.
Thanks again!

Hmmm, what's going on here? Aldo101t, do aroma installers work for you on 2.4.4.0? I wonder if its a simple reboot after flashing recovery problem. I need a way to reproduce this.

well, i'm not sure. when i tried to flash viper 2.2 i had a problem, but i can't remember what i did now. i used the same recovery, got it installed, i think i restored a stock rom then reflashed viper and it worked, but i'm not sure.
it's been awhile since i've tried to flasn with aroma, so
i just tried flashing viper 2.2, DID NOT WORK, so i miss spoke.sorry
I have also had problems with aroma on several builds of twrp and several builds of cwm. I'm currently on cwm touch and if it fails to install (goes from 7% to done in a few seconds) just try it again till it flashes. Also seems to help me if zips are on the ext SD card. Not sure what's up with this but that's how I got it to work. Seems to be an aroma thing. Regular zips have no problems flashing.

I want to try and get the cyanogenmod 10.1 ROM on my phone, but I just tried it through TWRP and it didn't work (kept getting Service Wizard and Gapps not working in beginning). I looked through the forum right here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2121931
and post #5 said it can't be flashed through TWRP. So, now I want to get rid of TWRP and try to use clockwork recovery mod in order to install the ROM. How would I go on about deleting TWRP and installing clockwork recovery mod?
You can install ROM Manager and install Clockwork Mod through there, although I have flashed clockwork mod from TWRP and vice versa before.
I have no idea why but the cyanogemod won't install, and it keeps falling on clock work, I even tried the older versions from 4/20/13. Have no idea what to do now

This is the Verizon Note 2 sub-section. You might want to try in the HTC One, and get better/faster responses.
Heres what I have done so far
- Rooted Phone
- Flashed TWRP 2.3.3.0
- Downloaded latest nightly rom
- Factory Reset
- Install rom
It starts the install and then flashes up an error 7. I then have to do a restore to get the phone usable again. Did not see this error in forum and wondered if anyone knew anything about it?
Thanks in advance.

not sure if it is connected to it, but did you try with Philz latest CWM based recovery? I heard that TWRP has problems with new Android versions.

If you update your TWRP install to the latest version, (2.6.3.1), you'll be able to flash CM11 with no problems.
My issues are now resolved. I thought I would post for anyone else who finds themselves in this situation.
I used the Samsung Galaxy GS3 Toolkit to root my phone. The issue with this was that both options for recovery were out of date!
I flashed the latest clockwork mod and worked perfectly.
Thanks everyone that posted for your assistance!

Here is a link to the download page for the newest version of TWRP 2.8.3.0. http://www.techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/t0ltevzw. You just scroll to the bottom of the page where the latest build is at and pick the zip file. They also have a .tar file for flashing in Odin.
Many thanks to "Bigbiff" for this. I found it on his thread in the original android section. TWRP is my favorite recovery by far.
Every time I try to install the latest version 2.8.3 it fails.

How are you flashing it? There are 2 ways you can flash this recovery, in the recovery that you have installed and Odin. Either should work. I would use your recovery first though and of that doesn't work than go with the .tar and use Odin. You can also try Philz to flash it. There are also a couple of apps on Playstore that will help with this process to. Flashify is one and [ROOT] Rashr - Flash Tool is another.
Hope this helps.
Chance favors the prepared.
I had tried both TWRP and Philz in recovery and neither worked, however, I just installed and tried Flashify and it did not work by flashing the zip file as it could not locate if for some reason, but when I downloaded the img file and flashed that it worked immediately. THANK YOU!!!

Stuck in TWRP
I had no idea CWM files cannot be restored with TWRP. I just downloaded latest TWRP and cannot get phone to bootup past Galaxy note 2 logo.I can bootup into TWRP though. Is there a way to disable TWRP to restore back to CWM please? Sorry to bother you all. Thanks in advance.
You need to download CWM .tar and flash with Odin on a PC out laptop. Once you flash CWM recovery with Odin you can boot into that recovery and restore your back up you made. It is either that or try to find CWM in a zip file and flash in TWRP. I don't recall seeing any in a zip format though but I will check for you.

I think that you should be able to use Philz touch recovery to restore CWM backups too. So you may want to flash Philz with your installed TWRP and then after the flash go to the TWRP start screen and hit "reboot"then hit "reboot recovery" and it should bout into Philzs. It is going to say "there is no system installed are you sure you want to reboot" hit yes and it should boy you into Philz.
Like I said I'm not 100%sure it will restore a true CWM backup but i would day that these would be your options. Maybe someone else has anything different to do?

Here is a link to my shared folder in drop box. I found CWM 6.0.4.3 in zip format. You can download this and just flash in TWRP and then reboot to recovery and you should be back on CWM recovery and you will be able to restore your back up.
Hope this helps.

Is it the right version of TWRP? You need to correct one for your phone in order for it to work.
