I just flashed the CM10 ROM by Dhiru (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1868074) using the instructions given there. The problem is that when I flash the gapps file, it says "installation completed" but when I reboot my phone, there is no play store or gmail. I've reflashed the gapps file again and again with no success. Any help will be appreciated.
^^ Flash the rom .... DON'T REBOOT .. and flash gapps
Open this( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1867905) and follow the proper installation process and that should do the trick

No face unlock??
Thank you for your help. Gapps has been flashed successfully. One thing I noticed is that there is no face unlock option. Is this true? If so, is there any way to get that feature. Once again, thanks.
Thankx for thii help ^^
For thaking there is a button, push it! Don't be afraid!

First of all Hi!, i'm a new user.
(sorry english is not my primary language)
I'm sorry if this is asked a lot of times but i could not find an answer that seems correct for my problem or that i understand completely.
I have flashed my phone with xxKPE then xxKPQ from Misledz guide (Awesome guide BTW) then i CF rooted my phone.
Everything worked fine till i tryed to install Frankensteinmod, i saw a video of it and looks prety cool.
Well i followed the instructions, copyed the zip file to SD, entered recovery mode, and upgraded with the choose a zip option.
After this my phone got stuck in Samsung logo and restart everytime.
I know i can enter download mode and recovery mode cuz i tryed and works.
My questions are:
Can i recover my phone without re-flashing from stock xxKPE?
If i try to reinstall Frankensteinmod is it possible to get my phone functional again?
Every comment and reply is greattly apreciated.
Thanks.
You should install thefrank'sMod by going into install zip from sdcard.
Not update from sdcard.
And if it doesn't solve. Then you may try entering recovery and do a factory reset. The rom will most probably boot.

Thanks :highfive: CRK1995, just tryed that.
And actually it didnt boot so now i'm flashing the phone.
Now i'm in the stock xxKPQ rom, i will take a lot of reading and try again.
If anyone knows a how to install guide for TheFrankensteinMOD. Really Apreciate the link to that.
I just rooted my Samsung GT-S5830i
I installed clockwork recover and made a backup too
I would like to install a custom ROM on my phone.. what are the necessary steps to follow before doing so ?
First, make a backup of you current rom. Then I would just go a head and follow whatever directions are supplied for the rom you want (some roms require special work). If no instructions are presented, do a wipe (factory reset or whatever) through cwmr, wipe the dalvik cache (under advanced), and install your rom!
Good luck I'll gladly answer any questions/problems you have.

i didnt do a factory reset, and installed jelly blast.. my phone got bricked, i had to flash through odin.. i was the only person who had the problem, you think it might have been because i didnt factory reset ?

It wasn't that.The only thing you must do before installing it is to root your phone, after that you just follow the custom rom's specific installing instructions.

Last night, I tried it again, I downloaded the ported jelly blast v 3 for s5830i, made a back up of my current ROM, wiped my data, wiped dalvik cache, placed the jelly blast in my sd card and flashed it through clock work recovery, I still got stuck in a boot loop..
Hello,
Try toggling signature verification and then flash custom ROM. Hope this solves ur problem.

how do i toggle signature verification ?
You can see option for toggling in your recovery mode. Select that and then flash Rom.

There was no toggling option in my recovery mode..
Please do search properly. Usually u can see option for toggling signature verification when u select apply update from sdcard option....
If u can't find then try installing recovery mod again.

I installed recovery again, I found the toggle signature verification option, could you tell me how toggling signature verification makes a difference?
By toggling signature verification, verification of digital sign of your zip file is skipped. Thus allowing to use/ flash ROMS( most of them are unsigned)
Did that work??

Don't just say it.... hit THANKS
The last couple of times I experienced this
The last couple of times that I got stuck in a bootloop, what fixed it was a re-wipe of data, cache and dalvik after the installation of the ROM. Don't know if that helps at all but hope that it does. That could be ROM specific, but it might be worth a shot (easier than restoring to stock again).
Examples of where developers have suggested wiping cache/dalvik after flashing the ROM

Can't find where I saw the wipe data section, it was somewhere.
Also, I use SMS backup, which syncs SMS's with gmail, so you can back those up and restore should you change again. Available in the play store.

You'll need to place the new ROM on your sdcard then in recovery you'll need to wipe system, cache,dalvic cache,and factory reset.. After that you can flash the ROM.. You'll also need to flash the kernel in fastboot mode if your not s-off.. There are plenty of threads and info on that topic if you do a little research.

thanks for the quick response, I'll try but it seems very difficult for me, then I'll tell how it went.
Firt do: You'll need to place the new ROM on your sdcard then in recovery you'll need to wipe system, cache,dalvic cache,and factory reset as $droyd$ said
Then, on your pc, open the rom.zip and extract the boot.img file from it.
Then, select in the OneS All-in-one toolkit the flash kernel option and run the command. Wait until your phone is in the bootloader and then select the boot.img and let it run.
You can download the toolkit here: http://d-h.st/n9n
is resolved, do not quite know how but it was. thank you all for your vested interest in helping a stranger who is very grateful.

I have downloaded it about 3 times and tried to flash it. Previously I tried to do this with OmniROM but than I just gave up and restored my system back to stock. Now I am trying it with Paranoid Android and the same thing is happening.

@noob nabain hey mate don't worry, it's obvious that a rooted pico phone running stock will go into loop when you do a factory reset (it previously mentioned in the rooting guide).
hope you have a working recovery.
now download any rom.zip
wipe everything(as specified in the instruction of installation)
install the rom
hope this solves ypur problem :good:
u r a life saver
