Hi,
My problem is that I can not install any gapps on my GT-I9300 I have fleshed it with many different version of custom ROM, using android 7, 7.1, 6 and 5.1. Unfortunately regardless of the version of the gapps (nano or stock) installation ends up with error that google apps stopped working. The gaps version is correct for given android version. When I flash ROM only - no gapps - the phone usually works fine but only on Android v5.
When I try ver 6 ROM flash does not even start. With ver 5.1 it flashes but then get some apps error.
Any suggestions or idea? What can goes wrong? Where to start troubleshooting ? On the stock firmware the phone was working fine.
Thx for help
Did you clean flash it, like proper format data. And what rom are you using?

I tried at least 7 different ROMs. Before I flash, I run wipe data/factory reset then cache partition and dalvik cache at the end.

I'll ask you again, did you format data which in the the advance wipe section. And also what version TWRP and opengapps are you using?

Sly Fox007. Now I'm not sure if I format the data correctly. I use ClockwordMod Recovery v6.0.1.2 not TWRP. Is this a possible source of my problem?

After flashing vanilla root box for the i9300 and the gapps I get this before I anything on the phone. "unfortunately, the process android.process.acore has stopped". comes up. It give me to option to report or ok.what should I do?
hey man,
you should just go to Manage Applications and and clear the data+cache contacts and contact storage.
be sure that you have backup for your contacts or make sure their stored at your gmail.
GL !
after flashing rom and gapss .. you must wipe data/factory reset and then reboot.
Hi man,
It's not true...even at the official thread of the vanilla
CheerS
You only need to wipe when switching Rom or upgrade to another Android version
You should however wipe whenever you get unexplainable problems
You have to clear cache and dalvick after flashing gapps
yes, but before flashing another rom, not after

Nope, check the installation instructions for Vanilla Rootbox, it says to clear cache/dalvick after flashing gapps. The same goes for any other ROM.
i was answering for the who said you need to wipe after flashing ROM not gapps.
and for the gapps enough to wipe only the dalvik and you don't need to factory reset the device. The same goes for any other ROM.

Some ROMs do recommend doing a full wipe before installing the ROM and after flashing gapps. Cyanogenmod recommends it for those who are flashing it for the first time
hi people

I use latest rom 3.7.1!
Sorry post makes no sense .

hi .am using xperia u,and have installed kernel phantom.while installing firebean i had a problem.1ly the boot animation is visible and not able to enter into the menu.pls give me some suggetions to over come this problem..

did you wipe cache and dvalik and data before flashing?

Enter in to recovery, wipe cache/dalvik and reboot system, if it don't works then reflash the ROM.
If you are installing the ROM by flashing from CWM Recovery, wipe cache/dalvik before flashing.
If you are installing a custom ROM over another ROM might also cause this problem. so clear data also..

try flashing another custom kernel, and try to enter into recovery.. if you can enter clear cache, data, dalvik and try booting system.
If this doesn't works you might be doing something wrong. please re do the things which I told you in the previous post. It seems you are skipping some parts.
Flashing Stock FW for Xperia U must bring you out of this. Have you tried out finding the correct FirmWare for your device. I think the latest FW is based on jelly bean and build version is 6.2.A.x.xx....

HI.
I've changed roms before countless times, but now I'm trying to install a 4.4.2 rom on my Galaxy S3, and I have some problems. The installation (flash) passes with no problems, but after that, the phone won't boot. It sticks on whatever the rom's boot animation is. I've tried to wipe data, cache, wipe dalvik after this but it's still not working. Before I flash every rom, I do a factory reset, wipe the dalvik cache, and format system. I've tried with 15+ 4.4.X roms, and these are some of them: CyanogenMod, OmniROM, SlimKat, AOKP, Pacman and so on. As I said, I've flashed roms before a lot of times, without any problem. Only 4.4+ roms wont work. I tried to change the recovery, still the same result. I flash gapps with every rom too. Any idea what can be causing the problem? I'm using the latest Clockwork recovery, Sorry for my bad english and thanks.

Format data and system and cache (full wipe) also intstall the rom then boot it then flash gapps after see if that helps.

I've already done that every time. As I said - Its not my first time flashing roms on my device. I know how to fix the general errors. This is something unusual tho.
Hey
When it bootloops, have you tried to goto recovery and see what us the cwm version??
Also try re-flashing the ROM without wipes..

I just flashed EHNDROIX V (based on CynogenMod 4.4.2 KitKat) last night and it worked just fine.
Rooted the device with Odin, install TWRP from playstore, install TWRP recovery from TWRP, clean dalvik, clean data, clean cache, flash ROM and then flash Gapps (spesific Gapps for the ROM) and voila it worked right away.
Note:
You see, I am not using CWM but TWRP. I dunno if CWM is the one causing the problem.
Most of the weird flashing issues are due to the recovery used, you could also try the latest version of Philz recovery which has an option to wipe for new firmware.

Quote " Before I flash every rom, I do a factory reset, wipe the dalvik cache, and format system" You said nothing about formatting data that is why i suggested it! Next time please include all details on how you flashed the rom then It cuts down on useless post's like mine
Like everybody suggested try a different recovery ( latest one) which if you have flashed roms many times before you should have done anyway
Thanks guys, but I've already tried these things. CWM, TWRP and three other recoveries (not famous ones) haven't been able to help.

If a rom is stuck in a loop, I would go to recovery and wipe dalvik and wipe data then reboot into same rom. This has worked for me when I've been stuck after a flash.

Did you update your bootloader? When I flashed 4.4.2 from 4.4.1 on my s3, I had to update mine to get it to work. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2321310 hope this helps.

Hi,
i updated my S2 from CM 12 to CM 13.
This works perfectly.
But i cant install the gapps.
It say's not enough Space in System.
So CM install's his own Recovery: Cyanogen Recovery.
But with this i can't wipe also the /system.
So how can i wipe this now?

Hi,
Here is for your reference:
Boot your phone into download mode. Connect your phone to PC. Use ODIN to flash TWRP .tar kernel onto your phone, go into recovery, wipe>advanced, wipe system.
However, I believe the real problem you are facing is your system partition is too small. Use my increase system partition size guide to increase system partition.

Thanks for your Answer.
But where can i download the newest TWRP Version for the S2?
Sorry.

CM12.1 TWRP is the one you want. Either one is fine, the older tar is what I usually recommend. Since you didn't keep isorec recovery, you can't flash Isorec TWRP this way. You will need to reflash ROM to get back to CM13.

Are you sure your data, cache & system partitions are in ext4 filesystems ?

Can you post screenshots of your data, system & cache being ext4 ?
Also, when you're flashing this ROM, dont flash anything else, Nothing at all, only this 800MB zip package.
Edit - Use TWRP for all this.
