[Q] Vicious Jelly Bean V3 and V4 hang on Verizon GN - General Questions and Answers

I've tried installing Vicious-TORO-JellyBean-V3-signed and Vicious-TORO-JellyBean-V4-signed on my Verizon Galaxy Nexus. Both got stuck at the boot screen. I gave them 30 minutes, that didn't help. I wiped the cache and the Dalvik cache, that didn't help. Pulled the battery, no go. Tried the tuna-jb-kernel-019b6.zip kernel, no help. I've tried installing from ROM Manager and directly from recovery.
Is there a trick that I've missed? Are there Jelly Bean ROMs that are know to work on the Verizon GN?

I am running Vicious JB v3 on Faux kernel on VZW GNand have had no issues. I would recommend doing a full wipe, and then reinstalling. Do the full wipe, install Vicious JB v3, and then install the Faux Kernel for JB. I would stay away from Franco's Kernel.

Won't a full wipe destry the backup?
Won't a full wipe destroy the backup? If it still doesn't work I'd be screwed without the backup.

No A full Wipe is going to "Wipe Data/Factory reset"
It doesnt wipe your files, just the system files and your apps etc. So when you flash the rom and start it up, it is just like a new phone you have to sign into google and set everything back up
I also do not know about a V4, I am not sure where you found that at, but I havent seen it released yet.

I'll give that a try
V4 is available in ROM Manager.

[Q] Gapps won't work {I have a picture :O}

My Wifi-Only US Xoom is rooted with the universal xoom root, and has the EOS-Wingray-60 Rom successfully installed, but everytime I try to download Gapps, this comes up:
How do I fix that?
EDIT: That is no longer the problem. Everytime I flash Gapps now, my xoom ALWAYS gets stuck on the dual core screen after reboot.
Double EDIT: I was too lazy to stock flash it, so I simply wiped everything again, downloaded EOS wingray 60, Then I wiped my cache and my dalvik (Not data), then reinstalled Gapps, and fixed permissions and it finally loads now. Thank ****ing god.
Can anyone help me with this please??

Go to the eos rom.. There is a gapps link.. Click it and it will take you to all the gapps packages ... Download 10.5 check the md5

Download the most recent EOS gapps from there. The (bad) in your attempted install means the zip is corrupt.

Alright, so my problem continues. I was running stock unrooted ICS, then flashes recovery. Then I wiped data, cache and dalvik. Then I rooted with the Xoom universal root. Rebooted, works fine. Then I went to recovery, wiped data, cache, and dalvik, and flashes eos Rom 60. Rebooted, works fine. Then I went to recovery, wiped data, cache, and dalvik, successfully installed gapps 10.5 for the first time, it wasn't (bad). Rebooted, andddd stuck. After I rebooted in permanately stuck on the dual core Motorola logo thing. What did I do wrong?
You need to flash the GApps file immediately after the EOS rom...no reboot first. This is a must.

When I flash them, is there anything I need to wipe or clear? Or do I leave everything alone?
God Dammit! This is pissing me off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It ****ing takes for ever to upgrade back to ICS when I have to flash the ****ing stock of 3.0!!!
I upgraded to ICS, after flashing 3.0, I flashed the R4c Recovery, I did a factory reset, and wiped Dalvik and Cache, then I installed the Universal root (Is there a different root I should use?), then I went back (Still in recovery mode) and did a factory reset, and wipe cache and dalvik. Then I install Wingray-60, then *immediately after* I installed Gapps v10.5!!!! I rebooted and my ****ING xoom is stuck on the dual core screen AGAIN!!!
WHAT THE ****.
Not quite sure what those first few steps were, but boot to recovery, go to mounts and storage and wipe system and cache, then go to the wipe menu and do a data wipe and dalvik wipe.
Then flash ICS and gapps.
Shouldn't have any problems after that unless your Xoom doesn't like ICS for some strange get reason.

CM10 Alpha 3 Problem?

Hello,
I was running the CM10 Alpha 2 for my GSII. Alpha 3 came out so I decided to update. I installed the newest CWM and the alpha 3 package, gapps and darkside wipe.
When installing I had no problems that I noticed. Everything said it worked fine. However, once rebooting the phone after darkside wipe finished, I couldn't boot up my phone. I can get past the Samsung screen, but I don't even make it to the CM animation boot screen.
I decided to pull the battery after waiting a while and go back into recovery. I did this and decided to restore my backup. My phone is stuck on "Restoring .android_secure" right now and will not work.
I can use Odin to flash back to ICS and how to came but I'm wondering why it didn't work? I know I did the procedure right, as I did it when flashing CM10 alpha 1, 1a and 2. I read about needing the latest CWM for it so I got that, too. A bit of a weird issue that I'd post in the CM10 thread if I had over ten posts.
Thanks in advance to those who can help!

I followed basically the same pattern and didn't have an issue, aside from the fact that I didn't Darkside wipe (if you are using the latest clockwork touch I don't think it's necessary anymore). I also flashed the instigator kernel (6.2.1) but that was after I rebooted without issue.
Sidenote, the instigator 6.2.1 seems to possibly have some overheating trouble, so I am running the Darkside Hercules kernel for the moment, and it seems to be working well.

Yeah, reading the thread it seems like a pretty rare problem. Somebody actually posted something similar yesterday that I missed and nobody really knew. I wasn't sure if I should Darkside wipe or not so I chose to anyways. I haven't tried flashing a new kernal but as I said I can't even get to the boot animation.

I would stay away from the darkside wipe, it has been reported through many threads that it can sometimes lead to problems when installing a rom. Your best bet is to just wipe data, format system, wipe dalvik cache, either format /cache or use Darksidewipe.cache not the darkside wipe that's wipes everything. Then install rom and gapps. Reboot phone and let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes, (i usually let it sit 10). From there you can decide if you want to flash one of the two available kernels, results may very with the two.

Thanks for the help. I'm going to try it within the next few days. Right now I have SKY-ICS going fine but I'll definitely try that.
What do the different kernels do?

How are u flashing the ROMs? Not using Rom Manager are u?
Also making sure to fully wipe, right?
Batcom2
Make sure you are doing a correct wipe.
Factory/Data Reset, Cache, System, Dalvik Cache. Add rom zip & gapps... Flash and reboot.
Use newest version of TWRP.

Are you sure you did all these before attempting to flash JB?
Factory/Data Reset,
System,

Dalvik Cache.
Add rom zip & Google Apps?

I did all of the above as instructed. I was finally able to get miui to run past boot. I was hoping to get liquid smooth working. The miui process that I got to work first had me run something called Darkside wiper. On both slim bean and liquid, I followed all instruction to the letter. There was another ROM (Iforget the name) that I was able to get past the boot screen but I had absolutely no cell service.

[Q] phone will not boot after installing any kernel

about a week ago i updated to the newest cm10.1 nightly with gapps 4.2. after flashing those i tried to flash leankernel. my battery was low and the phone turned off when rebooting after the leankernel flash. since then i cannot flash any kernel. i have to do a battery pull to get back into cwm recovery. once in recovery i can wipe data and reinstall cm 10.1 with the standard kernel. i have tried just about every combo of wiping cache, davlik, fix permissions. still not able to flash any kernel. could it have something to do with gapps 4.2 or the phone shutting off mid flash? if so does anyone know how to repair? i already flashed back to stock and rerooted re-unlocked, etc. thanks
and to clarify , it was gapps 4.2.2
Ive found that 3.4 based kernels work with some roms and not with others.
try an older build date its likely not 3.4 based.
or, if your trying a non 3.4 kernel and it wont boot, try a 3.4 kernel.
If you're trying to flash LeanKernel, what's the zip file you're attempting to flash? Also, what are you wiping prior to flashing the kernel?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
i tried the mastamoon 3.4 kernel with no luck . the rom i amrunning is the cm-10 nightly 2013-03-24. the leankernel version i am running is lk_s3vzw_aosp_jb42-v2.9. i wipe cache then wipe davlik then flash, it always worked with that procedure before, but since the problem i have tried wiping both after along with fixing permissions. before this issue it was simple as pi, wipe cache, davlik, flash, reboot .
You could always try twrp. Ha. It would make no sense why you couldn't install a kernel.
I would assume since you went back to Odin stock. It would flash factory kernel and give you a clean slate.
So unless cwm is outdated.... ?
Sounds very weird.
actually that is another variable that i didnt think of. cwm updated from 6.0.1 to 6.0.3 or something like that. but then again the original recovery i used after the clean slate was the ez recovery which used 6.0.1 stupid question, but how does twrp work? i always used cwm. i tried flashing twrp but cwm came up when i went to recovery when i tried using twrp?! that was before i did a stock recovery so it couldnt be possible that i am running both? should i delete cwm before i use twrp? if so how? if you dont feel like going into that much detail, i can search it.
i figured out twrp. never gave it achance. ill see if that does the trick
tried twrp. still the same thing going on. gonna go to bed now. ill check back tomorrow after work to see if there are any more ideas. thanks
Problem solved. I went into my internal SD via astro and deleted all old traces of cwm as well as ez unlock and ez recovery. I was getting a generic (showed setting icon instead of regular su icon)super user screen come up prior to that, after deleting those files the regular super user came back. Rebooted into recovery via twrp , cleared cache, Davlik, flashed lean kernel and it worked. What do you think the issue was? Lingering files from ez recovery? That weird su thing?

[Q] 4.3 not rebooting on Verizon Galaxy S 4

So I can't get 4.3 ROMs to reboot. I have tried several different Roms and always the same thing. Mainly Pac. It loads the first time fine, but when I reboot it just hangs on the Galaxy S4 screen. I have updated TWRP to 2.6 and tried wiping cache and dalvik between flashing the ROM and gaaps. And still nothing the only way I can get to do anything after that is to reformat and do a factory reset and the reflash the ROM. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

So just in case anyone else runs into this problem, I figured it out myself. I am running the MDK build so the only thing you would change is th rooting process.
1. Reflash Stock using ODIN
2. Reroot http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2381382
3. Install newest 2.6.3 TWRP
4. Back up Stock
5. Flash 4.3 ROM and 4.3 Gapps
I'm not sure if it was reflashing stock or the newest update to twrp but whichever. It worked.
