I just got this phone yesterday and immediately installed CM7. Thinks were going well, except for the random restarts at the lock screen and some apps not working. I read that Faux's CM stock kernel improves stability, and I hoped it would fix the restarts.
I read the directions thoroughly, wiped out the cache, wiped out the Dalvik cache, installed the kernel, and rebooted. It got stuck at a black screen, but I read that it does take a while, so I left it for about 10-15 minutes before removing the battery.
I wiped all caches, including user data, and reinstalled CM7 hoping it would fix whatever kernel problem just happened. Now it freezes at the blue LG screen.
I've tried several different caches that are all supposed to be comparable with my phone, and after installing them (after wiping all caches and /system each time) I'm stuck at the blue LG screen. I also tried flashing the entire phone to stuck, but to no avail. Installing the GB Kernel stock got me back to the black screen, this time flashing a brighter shade of black periodically, but still after 20 minutes, nothing happened.
I'm going insane after spending all day searching these forums and Google. If there's anything I can try besides installing kernels and reinstalling CM7, please let me know. I'm an idiot and didn't backup before I installed CM7 the first time, and every backup I've downloaded gives me an MD5 checksum error. At least I still have access to recovery. Most results I pulled up with searches brought me to people who lost their recovery menu as well, I'm not sure why I can't fix this even with the recovery menu still intact.
Keep in mind that you have to clear cache/dalvik right AFTER you have flashed the kernel, before reboot.
At this point, i would suggest to do a full wipe (clear data/factory reset, caches and also format system under storage and mounts). Then flash your flavor of CM7 and while still in CWM, flash the kernel of your choice, DON'T REBOOT, but clear cache/dalvik. Reboot, let it sit for a while and you should be good.

You welcome, I've added info on how to install custom kernel too
What are the usual behaviors while waiting for the phone to boot up for the first time with the new custom kernel? I downloaded the latest March nightly of CM7 (the latest April build gave me a bad file error while trying to install for whatever reason) and Faux's LGE Pre-OC/UV Kernel Version 013, did the proper order of installation, and it's been sitting for about 15 minutes now at a black screen that keeps flashing on and off. With USB plugged into my PC, I'm hearing a rapid "plugged/unplugged" sound loop with each flashing screen. Will I have to do the whole ROM Recovery tool process to try again?

You can't install custom kernel on nightly release. Use RC 7.2 and yes do the rom recovery and back it up so the next time you can just restore to any rom that works on your phone.
This may sound crazy, but I feel like I CM7-proofed my phone. Ever since I messed up that first time with the kernel and used the recovery tool, I can't get CM7 loaded anymore. I got 7.2 RC and installed it with the kernel the proper way, and got stuck at the LG screen.
So I used the recovery tool again, then NVFlash, wiped data/cache, installed the root file, then tried installing just 7.2 RC by itself. No luck.
I used recovery tool again, then NVFlash, then wiped data/cache, then used restore to bring it back to the stock + root that I made this morning before trying 7.2 RC and I'm back... so I went to CWM again and did wipe data/cache, and installed the SAME CM7 file I installed with yesterday morning which worked fine at the time, the latest stable release (7.1), and I'm still stuck at the LG screen.
This makes absolutely no sense. EaglesBlood installs fine, so it's not a problem with custom roms, I just don't like EaglesBlood (and EaglesBlood also froze when installing a custom rom the correct way as well). I'm tempted to just stick with the stock GB 2.3.3 + root since it works, I'm just missing the features I had yesterday of CM7 before I installed that god forsaken kernel.

I Think you are missing a one step, Wipe Dalvik. Ok let start from the begining,
First restore your phone to stock, let it boot. Root your phone and install CWM. Install CM7.2 RC rom and let it boot. Go back to the CWM and follow this instructions:
Wipe Cache
Wipe Dalvik
Wipe Batt Stats
Install Kernel
Fix Permissions
Reboot
all these steps are important. I was using CM 7.2 RC with Faux's kernel without any problem and it worked flawlessly
I just tried again with those instructions, and I still can't even get CM7 to boot up for the first time.
- Recovered my phone to stock using rom recovery tool
- Let boot, got to android's home screen, shut down
- Used One-Click-Recovery's "Flash CWM 5.0.2.0 Internal and External SD ROM" feature to install CWM (I'm assuming this is the proper way. I learned this from a YouTube video and it helped me to root my phone and get CM7 working the first time)
- Booted into CWM, wiped user data and cache, installed root-g2x-su-2.3.6.3.zip
- Restarted just to be sure (though I have tried just flashing CM7 after the root without restarting) and got into the android home screen just fine after I had to go through initial setup again. Though oddly enough my Google Apps were still present. They weren't present the very first time I rooted my phone, I had to install gapps.
- Shut down phone, went into CWM again
- Wiped user data, wiped cache, installed CM7 7.2 RC1
- Rebooted
- Stuck at blue LG screen for eternity.
I'm using the same root file as I did when I rooted my phone for the first time, and I've tried using this same method with the very first CM7 file I successfully installed and ran, and I'm still stuck at the blue LG logo unless I stock recover again and stick with stock. Rooting works fine, I've been able to run rooted apps on the stock rom, I just can't install any version of CM7 again for the life of me.

I've done what all three of those videos have shown. These methods work for other custom roms just fine, just not CM7 which is what I want, regardless of what build I use. Which rom is the closest to CM7? I tried EaglesBlood and I noticed a lot of changes I didn't agree with, I didn't toy around with it long enough to see if I could get it working like CM7.
EDIT: Even tried Nullifier Dual Wipe, still stuck. Just... wow.
EDIT #2: Now EaglesBlood doesn't even want to run, also getting stuck at the LG logo after recovering, wiping data/cache, and flashing the rom. It worked fine last night, I just erased it so I could give CM7 another shot and didn't have enough space on my SD to have a backup of that AND my rooted stock.
EDIT #3: Did the recovery/root/flash method again, going from fresh stock to flashed CM7, and this time it sits at the blue LG logo for a few seconds, before restarting and going back to the white LG logo. I wiped the cache though to prevent a bootloop, and I think most bootloops occur with the CM7 logo anyway.
There's no chance of any files being on the micro sd that could be causing the problems, could there? And is there anything else I should be wiping/formatting these tries? Like maybe rom recovery doesn't wipe EVERYTHING out, and I still have remnants of other attempts still?

No chance. Nothing will be left over when you wipe your phone. Your SD card is only accessed when you tell CWM to do so. Take your phone back to stock. Do it again this time try either a froyo rom or ICS rom. Then go back wipe everything and install CM7. Sometimes you have to take the long way. after flashing my phone a bazzilion time I learned this the hard way when I couldnt load EB ICS anymore. Had to run GB to get to ICS. Try it in reverse or from a step below and it should go through fine. IF it doesn't, you might have to use ICS instead, which may be stuttery, but works damn well.

I'm wondering why he still has the issue. YOU CLEAN CACHE BEFORE FLASHING KERNEL/ROM UPDATES!!!

For God sake, just flash a random ROM to get access to inside your phone.
1. DIAG your phone OFFLINE with v21e baseband (phone will automatically restart)
2. Let it stay for 5mins after that
3. Use your phone for 15mins
4. Root using 1Click
5. Install CWM
6. Install your ideal ROM + GAPPS (if needed) via CWM
7. Reboot
8. Go outside your living room and watch TV for at least 15mins
9. Reboot your phone into CWM and flash your ideal kernel
10. Enjoy!!!
You better know which ROM/kernel to choose from. Period.
How to upgrade/downgrade your baseband? Do some search, please!
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
I'll do a flash of Froyo or ICS and possibly some baseband research tomorrow. Considering my luck getting a simple rom flash to work, I don't feel too comfortable dealing with the baseband.
A friend was brave enough (somehow) to let me root and install CM7 on his phone, he has the same phone as mine. I got CM7 7.2 RC and Faux's DM UV working like a dream on my first try. Tried it on my phone after recovering it, same problem. So it's a problem that exists deeper on my phone, not with my methods.
The NAND restores for GB and Froyo give me MD5 checksum errors, and the stock zipped rom of GB gives me an installation failed error, so I'm thinking a zipped Froyo rom won't work either, but it might be worth a shot.
Tried Weapon and MIUI too. No go. If I don't get stuck at the blue LG logo, then I'm stuck in a loop between the two LG logos or stuck at a flashing black screen. 8/10 times though it's the blue LG, I think the other errors may have actually been me forgetting to wipe my cache when I was flustered.
I'll try ICS, and hopefully won't get to a point where I have problems installing things I used to be able to, since that seems to be the pattern. After that I finally give up.
I FIGURED IT OUT! Well, sort of. For the hell of it, I downloaded CM7 7.1.0.1 through Rom Manager and it installed fine. It downloaded it to my internal SD, so I hooked it up to my PC to copy the 7.2.0 RC1 to my internal SD and tried installing. No go.
So I went on my phone's web browser and redownloaded 7.2.0 RC1 that way directly to the phone. It works. So somehow, roms I copy from my PC to the phone appear to not work, yet apps and kernels still do. I'm running CM7 7.2.0 RC1, downloaded through my phone's web browser, with Faux's DS UV kernel, copied from my computer. After four days, I finally found a workaround, so I'll stick to it. Whatever works, I guess. I can try reinstalling my USB drivers, but I can probably get by with a combination of the phone's web browser and ES File Manager w/ LAN if need be.
Re: [BeanStalk][1.179] Phone freezes after call
I am currently running Beanstalk 1.179. I've noticed with this build, and with at least one prior build I can't recall, that after an incoming phone call of at least a few minutes, the caller hangs up, and shortly after, my phone freezes. I'm all cases that I've noticed it, I've answered the phone while it was locked, and it returns to the lock screen before freezing. I've got the lock screen configured to use a password.
I can't recall anyone else mentioning this previously, so I thought I'd mention it. If it's not happening to anyone else, I'll assume it's my own problem.

Thank you for the idea. I was just going over in my mind the ROMs that I have installed since I purchased the phone with an early version of scott.hart.bti's ParanoidAndroid already installed, and while I did not experience the issue with any of the ParanoidAndroid versions I installed, I believe I did also experience it while I was running Unofficial CM10 briefly between PA and BeanStalk. Perhaps the problem is indeed my own device, or something more deeply in the build source than with the build(s) themselves.
FWIW, in almost all instances when I installed a ROM, I always followed the entire procedure recommended by scott.hart.bti, including wiping the dalvik cache, as I did with my most recent install of Beanstalk 1.179.

as you become more familiar with flashing a rom and the principles, you will find that the cook book process may help but some times you may have to deviate from it to make it work.
ex: sometimes you may have to flash cm9 twice to get into the boot screen ..or flashing cm10 twice or reboot twice..or wipe a few extra time.
from my own experience, you have noticed something not working correctly..(sd not recognized, calls being dropped, app FC's and no one else had the same) you may need to start over...back to gb stock via heimdall or odin and work your way up.
the more i had screwed up and had to go back, there more i learned each time.

Interesting. I remember that it took me forever to build up the courage to update ParanoidAndroid the first time, and scott.hart.bti's clear and complete cook book process certainly helped get me there. I have broken one of the Beanstalk ROMs once, too, and had to look up how to boot into CWM from power off to reflash.
I'm curious why going back to stock would make a difference. It seems to me that if I a doing a complete flash, wiping everything, than it shouldn't matter if it's a stock ROM or a new ROM. I'd be more nervous about breaking something if I going back to stock, since is a more complete and drastic change.

yeah...for the most part, while in cwm, factory reset, wipe system, data, cache, dalvik and then flashing a new rom work very well.
occasionally, for what ever reason that i'm not sure, going back to stock..changing file system back to rfs and then changing back to ext4 may be needed to fix certain problems...not common and not routine practice, but is needed...at least imo
OK, fair enough. I will read up more on going back to stock so I'm not unfamiliar with it. Which tool do you prefer?
For completeness of troubleshooting info for anyone else who may be reading, I received a phone call yesterday while the lock screen was disabled, and the phone still froze after the caller hung up. I received another call today, and made sure I hung up first, and no freeze, my phone was fine.

Did you flash the gapps too?
If it were me, I'd FXZ back to stock ICS then root, install BMM, boot into BMM, factory reset, flash ROM, flash gapps then reboot. Works for me every time.
Brought to you by time and relative dimensions in space.
I always make sure that I get the proper gapps.apk file for the version of the rom that I am installing. I think that the only thing that you are doing different than me is the factory reset. Thanks. I will give this a try and i will keep my fingers crossed.

You no do factory reset before flashing ROM? That's the cause for bootloop.
And if you have BMM set up and different ROMs on various systems, then doing a factory reset on any system wipes other systems too. You just have to delete the partitions for that system in order to delete it.
And btw Gapps come in flashable zip and not apk
Remember, if you're trying to flash any of the Kexec based ROMs (like anything posted by deveshmanish) and you keep getting stuck at the boot screen, then you may be one of the unlucky "Kexec - rejects" like myself.
If so, then none of those ROMs will work for you. You need to try one of the non-kexec versions. There are several by different devs.

Hi, I just tried flashing cyanogenmod on my us cellular galaxy s3, and I ran into a problem. I followed a great youtube tutorial on how to flash cyanogen, and everything went fine. the tutorial used goomanager, and was done only using the phone, no computer. I flashed the rom after backing everything up through titanium, and everything appeared to be working like it should. After the flash was complete, the cyanogen animation popped up on my screen, but as soon as it finished loading, two messages popped up: setup wizard has stopped and goo.apps has stopped. I would hit okay, but the two messages just kept popping up. I restored my stock rom, but id still like to flash cyanogen and I need to know what I need to do to prevent this from happening again and how to restart the flash process. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

before you flashed the rom did you wipe data and cache? you might also be on the nightly version, try looking for the stable version, and if its on 10.1 its on 10.1, theres nothing you can do but wait for it to become stable if it isent already.

Everything was wiped. what I think happened was when I backed everything up, I didn't set titanium to not restore my app data, causing a bootloop. I could be very wrong about that though. What I need to know is how to reflash it, as I have already tried to but when I do it brings up system recovery instead of reflashing. Is it because I already tried flashing it once? and if that's the case how do I start from scratch? Oh, and I did flash the stable version. it was 10.1.2
