steps i need to follow for flashing rom
1. wipe (delvik, cache, system, data)
2. install rom (after flashing a message appears 'No OS installed)
3. then i press home button, and reboot to recovery.
4. Again install rom (this time without wiping any thing)
5. finally gets new rom.
why m not able to flash rom directly after wiping cache etc.
i have to always flash the rom two times (step 4) to install.
where i am getting it wrong?? help please
previously I was using Pixel experience Rom (decrypted)
edit solution: the issue was because of using older version of TWRP. hence solved.
your issue might be because of system partition not getting mounted properly after the wipe. Hence After wiping, reboot to recovery then flash rom.

I just came from owning a vibrant (original galaxy s) and i've read multiple rom development threads but was surprised to see that there weren't any precautions listed when flashing a rom. i remember when we flashed roms on the vibrant, we had to:
- flash back to stock between roms
- wait at least 10 minutes after the roms were flashed for the dalvik cache to be rebuilt
- something else im forgetting at the moment (sorry it's almost 4 in the morning here).
do we not have to do this anymore with the sgs 2? is it ok to flash a gingerbread rom over cm7 and start using the phone right away after flashing? Thanks.
I follow my own procedure when I flash new ROMs, most are unnecessary, but I like keeping my phone clean of old stuff.
*IN CUSTOM ROM*
1. Wipe Data
2. Wipe Cache
3. Wipe Dalvik
4. Flash Stock ROM
*STOCK ROM*
5. Install ROM manager from Market
6. Flash CWM Recovery
7. Place .zip of a Custom Rom in internal SD memory
8. Reboot to Recovery
*PROCEDURE*
9. Wipe Data
10. Wipe Cache
11. Wipe Dalvik
12. For CM7.1, flash ROM TWICE, since it uses a new CWM Recovery. For a normal ROM, I install them twice too, just to be sure.

Have you done this prior to installation?
Wipe Data
Wipe Cache
Wipe System
Wipe Dalvik Cache
then install ROM...twice if first failed.
If there's still a problem, redownload the ROM.
Flashing stock Samsung ROM is still flashing a different ROM, you're not going back to the real stock as you are still running a ROM, in this case Samsung's ROM.

flash that in recovery first to wipe eveything then flash the rom and wipe dalvik then reboot and let it sit for 5 - 10 min then reboot again
I'm using TWRP 2.7.8 and these are the steps I followed:
- Wipe system, cache, data and dalvik
- Flash repartition script
- Flash LineageOS zip
- Reboot
After rebooting, it goes to MultiROM selection, and says it is booting Internal(I have removed all other roms) but then it reboots into TWRP again.
I'm unable to install it as an alternate rom in Multirom as well. It throws the error: 'E:Error executing updater binary in zip '/tmp/mr_update.zip'
Yes please someone ! This system partition thing isn't properly working. Stuck at mi logo.

Thank you so much! This worked like a charm. Now I've got it up and running, but I've got a problem. Google Play Books doesn't display any text in any book I open. It just shows blank pages. I've vaguely understood that this is some problem with the webview, but how do I fix it?
Encountered very weird issue when trying to install roms
Hi guys, I'm currently on 'Resurrection Remix M - v5.7.4' after trying to install 'LineageOS 13' which hung during installation on "Patching system image unconditionally" . I've also manged to install 'AOSiP KANG 5.5 - 7.1.1'; once. After managing to install it, I tried to install 'Lineage OS 13' again, but it still fails at the same spot. Now every time I try to install 'AOSiP KANG 5.5 - 7.1.1' in hangs on "flashing AOSiP" . So, I then tried 'Resurrection Remix M - v5.7.4', it worked and now I think I'm stuck on Remix. I'd like to install "LineageOS 13" as the new FoxyKernel only works on 'Lineage OS 13'. I've already merged the partitions and have been able to return to stock rom through the use of the miflash tool and fastboot. I've already tried flashing 'LineageOS 13 and 14' using 'twrp2.8.4 and 3.0.2' but both have failed I've also tried using 'CWM 6.0.5' but that failed as well. I've always wiped everything except the sdcard and usb when trying to install a new rom. Can someone please help me install 'Lineage OS 13' ?
#Note, after I failed each install I always returned back to stock and redid everything again.

I've just tried to install 'lineage OS 13.0 ' again and it failed yet again, now it seems that I can't reinstall 'Resurrection Remix M - v5.7.4' it hangs yet again on patching system unconditionally, which it did not the first time round. Furthermore, the back up I made previously of Resurrection Remix M - v5.7.4, fails to install and fails on "extractTarFork() process ended with ERROR: 255". Can some one please me.

Managed to install the new 'lineage OS 14.0'; screwed up the install, by installing 'foxykernel' before booting. Caused system to be stuck on lineage boot animation.... should have read the thread before attempting to install and as usual rom refuses to install again. Stuck at "Patching system image unconditionally". Managed to install 'AospExtended ROM V3.1' but system hung on 'verifying network configuration' and "Just a Sec..." screen; WiFi for other devices were ok no issues. Left it on for over 10 hours no change. Wiped dalvik/art cache and cache tried again but no such luck. Wiped data, but also no luck.
#Note, by this time I've given up on returning to stock, as it did absolutely nothing .
~Update 8/3/17
Managed to flash the new 'lineageOS13.0', wiped dalvik and cache, installed Gapps but system stuck on Mi logo on boot. Managed to install 'RR-N-v5.8.2-20170306' boots up fine... tried to install 'Foxy kernel 1.5.rc2'... wiped cache. Now stuck in boot loop... :Facepalm: should have read the instructions first... forgot to back up boot. :Facepalm:. Will have to wait for MM version of the rom or newer version. Tried 'AOSiP-5.5-KANG-mocha-20170306' for some reason it got stuck on boot loop, only shows mi logo.
~Update 19/3/17
Managed to flash the new 'lineageOS14.0[2017-03-12]' , installed 'Opengapps pico 20170314' found out that in order to be stable need to factory reset, then install Gapps, so that when first boot, account set up shows. Installed 'Foxy kernel 2.0.8', now antutu score "80000" ... found out that the backup for boot works. Installed TWRP 3.1.0 , but still cannot install a ROM more than once. All in all 'lineageOS14.0[2017-03-12]' very smooth now that Gapps stopped crashing.
Sorry guys, help need here... installed RR 7.1.2 on GT-I9100 but failed to install Gapps... here are my steps...
1. Repartition via Odin - pit file - I9100_1.5GB-System_6GB-Data_32MB-Preload_by-the.gangster.pit - successful;
2. Flash CWM -Kitkat Compatible i9100 via Odin - successful;
3. Copy (a) RR-N-v5.8.4-20170813-i9100-Official and (b) gapps - open_gapps-arm-7.1-mini-20170910 to SD card;
4. Reboot to CWM, wipe partition, cache, dalvick cache, format system partion, flash (a) - successful;
here is the uncertain ways to flash gapps, but i try both ways, all failed.
5a. Right after flashing (a), straight away flash (b), successful, reboot but stuck at boot animation,
5b. After flashing (a), reboot and set up - successful, set Developer option, reboot to CWM to flash (b), error message e:\failed to find / misc partition.
The rom successfully installed and running, but unable to flash gapps.
Any comment? Thanks in advance!
I would suggest starting again this time install TWRP v3.1.0.0 recovery instead of CWM. You will need a compatible kernel. See djibe's guide in help section.

Hi All. We have Stock ROM zips for TWRP as you know. But i have boot problem if I install them with instructions which on topics. I know i am not alone who facing with this problem. This Guide is competible with all models.
Here are the steps to install Stock ROM from TWRP.
1. Check first;
Once you booted to TWRP , Tap Mount and Check "Mount, System as Read-only", this is very important
2. Install bootstack and system files.
3. Wipe Art & Cache.
4. Reboot Recovery. (Not system, just recovery)
5. Install SuperSU now.
6. Reboot.
SuperSU will not be fully installed if you don't reboot recovery. So you can not boot.
