Boot loop after flashing any custom ROM - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

All of a sudden yesterday my phone started boot looping while I was running Invisiblek's CM10. I finally got that sorted out, and used ODIN to get me to the rooted version of the stock ROM. However, now when I flash custom ROMs, I get a boot loop and have to restore back to the rooted version of stock. I've tried Invisiblek's CM10 again, Bean's... oh, and my CWM background is missing and is just black. I've also noticed(not sure if this could be why) that when I go to the mount section under CWM, both system and data keep defaulting to unmounted. Any suggestions?

Have you been using ezrecovery to flash recoveries before flashing ROMs??

Hm, no. The installation instructions never made any mention of ezrecovery. Is that my problem?

Flashed CWM through ezrecovery. CWM is working again it appears. Thank you very much!!

I am on brainmasters miui rom, and whenever I try to go into recovery the phone just gets stuck on the Google logo and doesn't move, forcing me to pull the battery. I have tried reflashing the recovery numerous times and idk what to do from here. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I got the same problem after flashing the Clockworkmod 5.0. Then I flashed the 4.0x version (found in the rooting guide on XDA) and it's now working smoothly

You should make sure you are erasing the old recovery before flashing a new one. This can be done as a fastboot command or through the advanced options in rom manager.

Help installing CM10

I am having trouble, and since I cant post on the page where this should be asked. (this is my first post) I am asking here hoping that somebody will look...
I have rooted my verizon S3 and it works great... I am however trying to install a CM10 Rom on my device. I have followed the instructions and get all the way to selecting the zip on the sdcard. it finds it, it opens it and after about 20 seconds it gives me a status 7 error and says error in XXXXXX\XXXXX .zip
I have done all the steps perfectly and have formatted and wiped it twice trying this... I even have my backup in place...
I have tried 3 or 4 different cm10 roms and they all give me the same error... What am i over looking?
Thanks
I think you need to flash a CWM/kexec hybrid recovery.
Download the app EZ Recovery and flash the hybrid CWM 6.0.1.0

Well if he made the nooby mistake to flash cm10 with a non kexec recovery ..i think he should abandon his hopes of installing cm10 considerong the lost IMEI issue

That us not the issue... I can get into the CWM recovery just fine.. when I choose the install zip from sdcad and choose the rom it will go through finding the package, then opening the update package and then installing update... 20 seconds later i get some symlinks failed, then I get a status 7 error in the file itself..

nope and now im stuck boot looping TWRP after trying what you suggested unsuccessfully.
I appreciate the help... any ideas how I can get out of TWRP back to CWM so I can restore a backup?
Thanks..
You could always Odin back to stock then re-root and install cwm again and restore your backup. May be an easier way not sure. But back up your files on a PC if you do that.

I don't know how you are blaming me when I specifically told you to flash a ClockworkMod/Kexec recovery... not TWRP.

TWRP to CWM touch

I have a quick question. If I want to go from TWRP 2.2.0 to CWM Touch is it as simple as flashing the CWM Touch zip in TWRP? I'm a little worried about flashing it within TWRP and bricking my phone. Coming from CWM touch to TWRP I simply downloaded GooManager and installed it within the app but going back to Touch seems trickier.

I tried to flash Liquid Pre RC1 and got an error. I think you have to use CWM Touch to get it to flash and figured I'd go back to CWM. TWRP has been great but I feel like most all Roms work in CWM Touch but not all work in TWRP.
I've been trying to find a more stable JB rom from CM10 Alpha 3 and heard Liquid was pretty strong. Just tired of all the lockups and not ready to go back down to CM9 yet.
I flash everything in twrp your doing something wrong

I've found it's the exact opposite. TWRP and CWM Touch are slightly different in how they work; you sure you're not hitting the wrong button by mistake?
Not sure what happened but I tried flashing it once and it failed. Re downloaded the zip and tried a second time with the same error. The MD5 checked out and everything. I've flashed many times with TWRP with no issue so I'm not sure what's going on. Can anyone confirm that Liquid flashes successfully in TWRP? Not counting out user error but I've never had an issue flashing anything.

[Q] Verizon galaxy s III SCH-1535 just rooted recoveries no data

Verizon Galaxy S III SCH 1535 rooted with casual. Got root access but any custom recovery will not identify OS or any data. Even flashed back to 4.0.4. stock and and stock recovery will not work. I think partitions are different now or got changed some how. I have flash 4.1.1 stock image and got stock recovery back but Twrp or CMW will not work. First time I ever had this issue.

[Q] CM Stuck on logo animation while booting

Hi – I have a stubborn issue with my Blaze 4G not working on CM roms, I would appreciate any help you guys can provide. Below are the details:
I recently bought a T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G, and did the following:
- Rooted it using the following guide (it now has ICS)
- SIM Unlocked it using the following guide (now it works on other networks)
- Updated to CWM 6.0.3.8, since JB roms needs it
- Flashed the T769-UVLH5 modem, since CM support it
And now when I flash CM 10 stable or 10.2 nightly it gets stuck in booting and displaying the CM logo animation screen, after few minutes it reboots and does it all over again.
I remember when I upgraded to CM JB on my SGS3 I needed to flash a JB stock rom on it to get the new boot loaders for JB, but I saw no mention of this on this forum. What else am I missing?
Thanks.

as for recovery, I updated to the latest version using the rom manager, and according to the official site clockworkmod[dot]com[slash]rommanager (can't post links) I have the latest version for Blaze. how do you get the 6.0.4.4 on blaze?
I still feel it's a ICS vs JB bootloaders issue, but not sure how to proceed next.

After 2011 samsung began installing software and counters to try and prevent people from rooting and installing custom firmwares.
knox is an example of this.
These devices don't have any of that complicated security.
You handy with odin? Your recovery is not right. Just to be clear, what is your model number?
If it is T 7 6 9, your good to go to odin. I'd recommend going back to stock, and then install a recovery and you should be good to go.

Thanks again, I use the guide here to convert the image into a tar.md5 to flash using odin, but after flashing successfully I still have the same issue when installing the CM zip file in recovery, and yes it is the T-mobile Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G T769.
any other possible causes?
BTW - when I was flashing via Odin my upload phone screen was showing that I have a custom rom and the counter was 1.... do I need to fix that?

SOLUTION:
The reason your stock recovery system keeps getting overwritten at Android startup is because of a script that is being run.* All you need to do is either rename this script or simply delete it.
Please keep in mind that if you restore your stock ROM, this script will be restored with it so you will have to rename or delete it again.* Do the following:*
1.
Make sure your device is powered on and running normally,
2.
Make sure you have rooted your device and that you have all of the necessary permissions in order to manipulate system files.*
3.
In the root file system go to \system\etc
4.
Find the file named install-recovery.sh and either rename it or, as I did, delete it.*
That’s all there is to it.*
Please keep in mind that you will need to flash your custom system recovery one more time after modifying the script file.* After that, reboot away and you will always be able to get back into your new system recovery.
Good Luck and Happy Tweaking.

Thanks Somcom3X - but I'm not sure this is needed for my case. I read the original blog post and my recovery does not get overwritten. I actually rebooted multiple times into CWM recovery and each time it is the same 6.0.4.4.
I also went into the /system/etc folder and there is no install_recovery.sh file.
to clarify, here is where I'm stuck now:
- when I use CWM 6.0.3.8 CM install completes successfully, but then CM will not boot, and will keep on cycling on the boot logo screen.
- when I use CWM 6.0.4.4 I can't start to install CM as it complained that my phone is not t769.
in all cases I'm using CM 10.2 nightly for T769.
Thanks for the help.
You should delete assert lines at the top of the zip's updater-script and it will let you flash it.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T769 using Tapatalk
I removed the assert lines from the updater script, and it was able to complete the install process afterwards, however when I booted the new CM 10.0 system it got stuck on the cyanogenmod boot logo. I made sure I do a system/data rest, cleared cash, and cleared devalk.
I do not think it's an issue with my recovery as I'm getting the same result as I did with the official 6.0.3.8.
Something else is going on.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Ok, my rooted ICS stock is acting up (random shutdowns and such), so I need to give this another try and get this phone to CM.
I tared back to stock GB, skipped the upgrade to ICS (was not able to upgrade via the ROM software update option), flashed CWMR (5.0.4.x) via Odin, upgraded to CWMR 6.0.4.5, installed CM 11 nightly, and then wiped data/factory rest and Dalvik .... and ....
it is still stuck on the boot screen....
I seriously would appreciate a silver bullet right now!

I tared back to stock GB, skipped the upgrade to ICS (was not able to upgrade via the ROM software update option), flashed CWMR (5.0.4.x) via Odin, upgraded to CWMR 6.0.4.5, installed CM 11 nightly, and then wiped data/factory rest and Dalvik .... and ....
it is still stuck on the boot screen....
I seriously would appreciate a silver bullet right now!

Hmm. Go back to stock ics, flash a 10.2 recovery, then flash whatever you desire.

What is a10.2 recovery? Is it a certain version of CWMR? And do I need to flash it via Odin? Thanks

It would be cwm 6.0.2.7
You can flash the img through a zip or by terminal on the phone.
Odin needs a tar'd recovery img
Sorry been very busy.
Have you tried this?

Thanks Somcom3X - I looked all over this forum and the internet, and could not find a link for a 6.0.2.7 CWM for Blaze - I found it for other phones but not Blaze. can you please point me to a link if you happen to know of one. the official site does not have an archived list of previous versions.
as for the provided link, I did follow it through, and downloaded the recovery Tar (it was CWM 5.5.04) but that yielded the same results after installing CM 10 and 10.2 - stuck at boot screen logo. I'm reasonably confident now that it is not a recovery issue, as I flashed half a dozen different versions and none worked with CM 10, 10.2, or 11.... it has to be something else!
Thanks.

That is my personal 10.2 recovery. Works fine for me.
The author is me, but I was too lazy to change the lines.
