2.Wipe data/cache/dalvik cache and format System
3.Install custom ROM.
4.Again wipe data/cacje/dalvik.

Hi all. The problem is this, I cyan9 through mobileodin to stock 4.0.4. after that I can not flash with odin 1.85 cwm or root, or other rom. Firmware stack after checking the hash file of rom. Stock recovery can not do anything too flash - freeze. How can I restore it?
I try flash stock 404 with pit, try install cwm from stock recovery and rooting, try diferent stock roms russian,indian,australia. - nothing.....
Have idea... Install cwm from recovery stock and flash cyan9 or 10.... But it's bad idea...
p.s. I'm from Ukraine, and somewhat easy in forum lot of information to read quickly, and a lot of bugs Thanks
Are you able to install CWM Recovery? if so then try these steps:
1) reboot to CWM
2) wipe data/factory reset in CWM
3) wipe cache
4) advanced > wipe dalvik, wipe battery stats
5) install .zip from INTERNAL SD
6) reboot
That was the problem that stock recovery remained. Firmware sink crooked rose. And One refused to flash (rom or recovery - PC freeze ). I have been through Heimdall(recovery iso) flash CWM recovery - and then by your advice. If it was all easy initially - the post would not create. Thank you.
The very first ROM I tried to flash was a version of CarbonRom. I was unsuccessful, as i got the installation aborted message. I then tried a couple of other lesser know ones, with the same luck. Lastly I tried CM 10.1, and with that, i had success. It was the only one that would work so far. Yesterday, I downloaded DU 4.2.2, and A new nightly version of Carbon (Specifically for my phone) With no luck of installation. Am i doing something wrong with these? Is there a different method of flashing i'm missing?
what is the procedure you take to install?
I usually go this route:
1) Boot into whatever recovery you have
2) Wipe Cache/Davlik
3) Install custom ROM
4) run a factory reset
5) Reboot

I have Philz custom recovery which based on cwm version 6.0.3.7 which when you tap wipe data you will then have the option to clean install for new ROM.

Sorry for not replying earlier, i never got a notification. I'm using the most recent version of CWM. My usual order is :
1. Boot into recovery
2. Factory Reset
3. Clear Cache Partition
4. Wipe Dalvik
5. Format /system
6. Mount /system
7. Flash new ROM

well we now have 3 custom recoveries to choose from I like the newer one since I can install a new ROM in fewer steps.
i would do a factory reset after you flash your rom too, can't hurt.
of course on updating the same ROM, I only Wipe Cache/Davlik and that's it.
Bad download? Does the md5 match?
after making sure you wiped everything make sure the download itself was proper I am running it flawless right now
Hi all,
after a lot of attempts, I could not install this ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2519683
I have use this method:
1 - flash stock firmware by odin
2 - then root the phone
3 - flash the cwm recovery
4 - then wipe data and cache and dalvik cache
5 - from cwm, flash the kernel
6 - go to advance and choose reboot recovery
7 - go to mounts and storage and mount system and data
the cwm will be default recovery ( This one I don't understand what I must do... )
8 - now again wipe data, cache and dalvik cache
9 - check if system is mounted
10 - now flash the rom
NOTE: this procedure I got it from that thread.
So , my phone is a Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-S5830i and this ROM should work, but I don't understand where I make the mistake..?
I have the original Firmware, installed it with odin. I'm not sure at 100% if this is the original firmware. I have attached the screenshot with those informations.
So, I've rooted the phone and installed ClockWorkMode Recovery and I've done all the procedure written before.
On this phone, everytime I reboot the phone I must re-install ( or re-activate ) the CWM to work with it...
I don't understand if this is the problem, but I think no....perhaps I should format the SD ? ...
However I'm stuck, please someone more expert than me I'm asking help ...
thanks.

>First of all, make sure it is the correct rom for ur device.
>Once u obtain the rom, place into root of ur sd storage.
>boot into twrp select advance wipe, and select dalvik/system/data/cache and swipe to wipe
>Now do back and select install, select the zip and flash
Note: DONT FLASH GAPPS YET JUST REBOOT ONCE INSTALL COMPLETE.
>First boot takes bout 5 min. If boot was successful then proceed flashing gapps (ensure it is correct android version and cpu architecture)
U can find cm for ur device here.
Let me know if it worked:fingers-crossed:
