Did you wipe cache and dalvik cache? And do you have an unlocked bootloader?

Which image you used to install? Try the full OTA one for your phone model from the link in my sig.
Also do a full wipe before flashing.

Thanks, I went back into bootloader and I went to reset to factory specs but instead i think it cleaned my phone of my information and then when rebooted, went into ICS easily, Love the OS but I am not getting a wireless signal. I read one post where someone was running a gingerbread radio so now I am seeing how to do that

[Q] Crash on setup

Hi,
I rebooted my sensation and after around an hour the CM boot screen just froze. I tried rebooting it again and it did the same.
Ive now factory reset it and when running through the initial setup it gets to to the section where you select the time and date etc. then the setup says it has crashed. After pressing force close I just get a black screen with the notifcation bar at the top and im unable to do anything?
Can anyone help with this?
Thanks
Tom

are you still s-off right? so wipe all and flash the rom again

Are you using a factory or custom ROM?

Sorted
The CM7 ROM I had saved on my SD card did the same thing but I redownloaded it and it worked!
Thanks!

[Q] ICS ROM on GIO fails to start

Hi,
I have a Samsung GIO S5660 (no carrier, no lock or branding or something, originally GB 2.3.4, stockware updated to 2.3.6), rooted and installed Clockworkmod Recovery (5.0.2.6) and followed the instruction to the letter when I tried to install an ICS ROM: this one here.
I tried others too. But unfortunately the result is the same everytime. Installation successfully completes, wipe data / factory reset (tried that several times before and after installing). And when rebooting, the SamsungMobile logo is shown, the screen flashes white for a split second and goes dark but is obviously still powered up (glows a little). And then nothing happens. I have to remove the battery to bring it back to life then, which right now is of course nothing more then another reboot into recovery.
Any ideas? Am I using the wrong ROM versions? It says something about format failed when doing the wipe because of missing ext4 access ... ?! Do I have to use a different CWM Recovery? But I do use the one mentioned and linked to in the tutorial ...
Regards,
Mac

Uhm, I just had to wait a little longer for the ROM to start up. Sorry, ROM works alright.

Problem with the latest KitKat 4.4 Alpha3!

Hi, everyone, I have a Nexus S and I am new to roms and stuff and by far I was using the latest Cyanogen mod, because the installation was easy. I decided to try this custom rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2410844. And after a lot of reading, I figured that i have to install the latest Clockwork mod, so I did, then transferred the rom .zip file to my storage, rebooted in recovery and installed the zip. Then I rebooted again and all that is happening now is - an android text with highlights moving over it is standing in the center of my screen, but nothing loads... I waited like 30-40 minutes but it just stays there... Can somebody tell me if I was wrong with the instructions somewhere or this can be a problem with my device? Thanks a lot and sorry for posting a new thread about it, since I'm new, I'm not allowed to ask in the Developers Section.

I didn't Wipe/Factory reset. Could this be the problem?

It seems you got stuck in the boot loop itself.!! From next time on when you are about to install a new rom, make sure you do a full factory/data wipe.!!
Now that you are stuck in boot loop, just remove batter, insert it, hold simultaneously your volume up+power buttons. From the menu choose recovery. Then
1.data wipe/factory reset.
2. Wipe cache.
3. mounts and storage --> format system.!!
Now you are good to go. Make a clean install of your new ROM. I guess your device by now should work normally.!!

Hit thanks if I helped you.!!

Yes, I already did it, right after I asked, with the factory/reset function (I thought this is the problem, so I did it), everithing is ok now, but thanks for answering!

It's ok for the admins to delete that thread, thanks!

I also have a problem with same ROM.
Every once and a while after making a call or doing anything with Dialer he freezes and after that system just reboots. I've installed last version of CWM, updated SuperSu, installed Pa full version of GAPPS.

HELP- Flashed wrong gapps

First off, im a newbie.
I just installed Alpha 5 cm 11 kitkat from yajnab. Gapps didnt work so I flashed them, then I found out that they were wrong gapps, then I panicked and reinstalled my cm 11, but on welcome screen it keeps saying "android keyboard (aosp) has stopped" I can't do anything, I tried to reinstall cm multiple times and tried to reflash gapps with proper version, but I still can't get past welcome screen. Did i just "Brick" my fit? ((

I wiped after flashing, but I tried with wiping before too.
Also I didn't make backup
I'm using mini-gapps-cm11-20140317 now
But I didn't wipe from mount & storage, i wiped from main screen.
Thanks for help, Im flashing now, I will update this post when it is done
