Hello!
I've got a problem. I flashed PACMAN rom from berni witho Gapps and...
All works fine. But when I try turn on my phone I've got booti:mmcread0... I don;t remember.
What can I do? After this mmcread... screen becomes many colours.
What should I do? I'm coming from 28b normal rooted with CWM recovery.

Come one man.. stop this smartflash ideas. and bootv21e.
first smartflash give you many problems asi IMEI lost, then you go back to GB with this 21e.
So... now to Karim Kahale
Explain us what you had before PACMAN
1. Bootloaders?
2. Recovery?
3. GB or ICS?
4. was this mod ROM or stock?
5. How did you flash it? Did you clean any thing. Did you read all on the first page?
6. Is this PACMAN on dual boot or not?
Then we can start thinking about that.
some ides
- if you had stock ICS before with locked bootloader - probably the kernel has to be changed
- if you had GB - look the first page
- go to recovery and flash another Rom if you have - before that keep the power button for 20 sec to be sure that you stop the phone, and then start it for recovery.
.
But do not use SmartFlash.., if you go for such a big system change... let use LG Flash Tool and use 28b big partition.
edit: someone with the same problem like you link

The Fact You see booti:mmcread0 (AFAIK Stock loader does not display anything~) means you wkparkbootloader but which version if not 1.25a flash it then reflash the rom i also got that with a previous version of pacman just reflash your rom or try another think it has something todo with the kernel
Before PACMAN I had the same problem with MIUI by OptimusRS. But I couldn't enter recovery mode. Then, when I boot in recovery, i couldn't boot phone in normal mode! Flashing with CWM didn't work.
Then I flashed normal v28b (without fls file, only bin) with normal partitions from xbsall. Than i flashed bootloader and CWM using All-In-One by OS-hacking version 1.2 (in the first post of this tool there is an information "6- ICS Bootloaders (wkpark's 1.25a Bootloaders)"
PACMAN I downloaded from there and read all on the first page.
Version pac_p920-nightly-20130613 but I couldn't flash it because when I tried it in CWM was: assert fail Status 7 instalation aborted so I delete updater script assert and then flashed rom and gapps. Before flashing I did "wipe data/factory reset" and "wipe cache". Anything more.
Then I wrote this thread. I boot in recovery mode (to see does it work) and now I can't boot normal. Only CWM mode. Flashing rom with CWM doesn't help. That same as it was with MIUI. What should I do now? If I flash 28b with flashtool what should I do next?

probably you are in recovery "Recovery Loop". take the file of the fires post form this threat. Then you flash new recovery.
And read the whole first post there. hope this work for you
Thank you bro! I'll try this today. Now I am on another computer but second is in my neighborhood. There I have all needed files. Today I'll edit this post and tell you does it work.
EDIT:
I've got a problem :/ When I try: mounts and storage>mount USB storage it doesn't work. I can't mount sdcard because my sd card reader is damaged. Why? I don't know.
When I replaced my digitizer in phone reader stopped working. Before it works. I was on ported acura (korean based on port from xbsall). After that I flashed v21e Gingerbread and reader didn't work.
What can I do? I want use my sdcard but I can't.
EDIT 2:
I couldn't copy file to phone so I flashed v28b normal partitions by xbsall. Please tell me, what should I do now? I don't wanna flash next time with LG Flashtool.

Do you want ICS or JB?
In both cases you should do that:
1. Download this tool. Probably you have it already.
2. Flash with it EXACTLY:
(8- Flash ICS BootLoader)
(6- Flash TWRP Recovery (version 2.3). - Yes... this one. not the one for ICS.
3. Start the 28b that you have and format both internal and external card - make a copy before that
4. Reboot in recovery and install the custom Rom according to the instruction
Unfortunately you install the normal partition so many roms will not work. I suggest you that you install the big partition 28b. with it all roms work.

OK. I'll try it. But why my sd card reader is damaged?
Do you know how can it damage?
EDIT:
What do you think? Phone will work better with ICS or with JB?
Which one is better?
I don't need 3D, but smooth. Only smooth and fast.
And should I install v28blarge only bin or bin + fls?

JB Kernels are still not mature for O3D. And there is where you get more battery and speed. Look in my signature what I use. For me is the best combo. if you delete around 40 apps that you do not use form Darkroom V4 XXL ROM and put Acura Next Level V4 KERNEL and tune it good - you can get around 2-3 days using your phone in light condition. I could not get more than 24h with any JB and tunings.
Edit: only the BIN. take the fls form 30a

Thank you one more time. What do you think about this rom?
And:
How can my sd card reader damage? Is this problem of system or hardware problem? When I was on ported ICS I didn't flash bootv21e. At once I flashed normal v21e. Maybe it's the problem?
it is not damaged. probably you have to re-format it within the system you use. search around the forum - i do not have in mind in the moment. Was s.t. about ported ICS and P920 ICS file system.
OptimusRs is a good developer. I have not test his rom but is based on 30A so probably is OK for you if you are from Europa.

I think this has basically been said before, by defcomg and others, but it could be from a bad flash due to incorrect driver install or incomplete flash. Yes, you will need to use LG Flash Tool to reflash. Follow 1-2 here,

then install whatever rom you wish. Just be aware that some custom roms require wkpark bootloader to be installed first, as has been said before.

Sorry that I haven't replied. I was in Italy ;D
So, if i flash it, will sd card reader work?
If it was working before, it should. Mine is working. I have heard of this issue before with Pacman; I think it is a bug with some versions of it, but don't quote me on that. There is probably some other way to fix it, but flashing a ROM known to work is one way.

So.. The other day I rooted my htc sensation perfectly, and gained super user access, S-off and all that stuff to root.
So I flashed a MIUI rom onto the phone which worked perfectly.
Today I tried to flash the Virtuos Quattro ROM onto my phone and it didn't work. So I cleared the cache, user data, and all that, but every time I tried to flash the rom it came up with an error.
(At this point when I turned the phone on , it when in a boot loop..l unless I went into recovery mode.) so I tried to restore the MiUI ROM and it wouldn't work anymore..
So I formatted the system and still no luck. Formatted the SD card and no luck.
However, after doing all of that, I lost the MIUi ROM, have no way of getting to a home screen, and I don't know how to get back either to my stock rom or to the MIUI rom.
It still says I'm S-off.. But I have no clue how to get back to either my stock rom ( because I have no idea where to find it) which is what I want to do again
Have I deleted the stock rom?
Is there a way to get back to the stock rom in this case? Or what should I do?!?
In desperate need of help guys!!
Cheers
Nothing to worry.
Virtuous rom, you need to flash latest firmware in order for this rom to work. Read rom guide carefully, there is a guide how to flash virtuous rom in development section if I remember correctly.

would you be able to link me to the instructions on how to do that ?
you can take your sd card out and plug it in your computer and put the PG58IMG.zip in the root of the sd card and virtuous quattro in any folder
after that get the sd card in the device go to bootloader flash the new firmware (keep in mind tho that to flash the new firmware you have to be superCID) then go to recovery wipe and flash virtuous quattro and youre all set
heres the thread were you can find the new firmware:

re download the rom.. sounds like a bad download... if you wanna run ics... download new firmware name it whatever it's supposed to be name... put it on the base of the sdcard... sdcard/ ok now have your downloaded rom and the firmware on the sdcard. not a folder just in the base directory... ok in recovery wipe everything first... data cache system boot... everything except sdcard... then flash/install the rom.... then reboot to bootloader in the power options in ext4 recovery , the bootloader will read the firmware file... should be named pd58img or something like that (dont quote the file name i could be wrong) anyways the bootloader will pick it up and ask you if you wanna update, hit volume up for yes... after it's done hit the power button again to reboot and all should be welll with ics... oh and then hit the thanks button for me..... you really just need to open to browser windows... one where you download the firmware read how they say to install one for the rom read how they say install and then look at my post... with all the info here i think u can figure it out... sorry if i aint making sense i just wored 14 hours... gotta sleep now... good luck

Background first when stock were you JB or ICS? Blackbean OP does not specify. At the moment I'm to lazy to read through thread or flash to find the answer. If you were on stock JB you can only use JB roms, if you were on ICS you can only use JB after stock upgrade to JB.
Forget Blackbean for now and let's concentrate on getting you fully functional on stock again. If you were on ICS then download stock 9.4.3.30 and unzip once that leaves you with a zip. Place that zip on your ( /sdcard ) or external sdcard ( /Removable/MicroSD ) and flash with Twrp. If you were JB then the instructions are the same except use stock 10.4.2.13.
If you do this you will loose your recovery ( Twrp ) but you should have a functional unit.
Non stock rom install.
Be sure you use proper rom for your bootloader ( ICS or JB ). Choose one that gives you instructions as to what to wipe, etc. You can adlib after you get your feet wet. If the op gives instructions use them if not then you may or may not have a happy ending with generic instructions.:good:
If you need anything explained let me know and I'll step by step for what you don't understand.
The reply you tried to follow said "I think", you should have investigated before following. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that was incorrect but the poster was in doubt and you should be also.
When we say "I think" we kind of assume you are going to do some reading and be comfortable with everything before you continue.
I took a little time to look over Blackbean and as I suspected it is for the ICS bootloader not JB.
same problem
I am having the exact same problem. I did manage to install the clean rom 2.5 custom rom successfully originally, and i made a backup through CWM, but I cant install any other rom on there for some reason. Yesterday I managed to go back to stock Asus jellybean rom successfully, and then had to root it and install CWM again successfully. I have again tried again today to install that EuroSkank rom, but alas, I get stuck at the ASUS boot logo permanently and nothing happens?
What might I be doing wrong??
I am on Jellybean. Thankfully the CWM is working fine and I could also restore my cleanrom2.5 backup.

( EuroSkank ) is also an ICS rom not JB - Clean rom 2.5 is JB. For now unless you have NVFlash you can't go back to ICS from JB and you can't run ICS rom with JB bootloader. (I'm using ICS and JB here to declare the bootloader )
Ok, Thank you very much.

any1 with Partition not found problem, open zip and look at the folders, delete everything except folder you want (which is propably system) then write
fastboot flash system yourzip.zip
if this doesn't work for you then extract files from the folder and repack only files from the system folder and use the command above.
It doesn't work for me (dunno why) but it's something
I'll preface this by saying the following:
I know there are a lot of brick guides out there, and most are relatively easy to get out of. I've worked myself into a bit of a pickle, though.
It started when I noticed that there was an update available through the CM updater. I figured, what the hell, I'm running a nightly and this is likely to be a stable release, so I went ahead and downloaded it. I got home and checked the get.cm page, and sure enough, a new, stable build had recently been released. Being the diligent soul that I am, I made sure to do a full backup before I installed the .zip. Everything worked out just fine, the backup went swell, the update finished without problems, and then I rebooted my device.
All I see is the Asus splash screen. It just stays there. So I think, no big deal, it just didn't work out like I wanted, I'll go format my data (which I didn't do the first time around, in hopes that everything would carry over) and install again. The same thing happens. I haven't started panicking yet, since I still have 3 backups (1 older Jellybean, and one much older ICS). None of them work. I wipe everything that I can think might help. Data, system, cache, dalvik, you name it. Nothing was working, and I was starting to freak out. Then I decided to try to get some action through fastboot, hoping that I could push a .zip that wasn't the CM10 update that had started everything. In my search for a push command, I thought it would be a good idea to try a wipe from fastboot. This wiped everything. Not only the system, boot, etc. partitions, but also my personal partition that had all of my data. This in itself isn't a big problem, but it also left the partitions unformatted. Now I have a device that is devoid of data and can't do anything but get into CWM and fastboot.
What the hell can I do? Am I doomed? Is there no way to get out of the hole I've dug myself into?
tl;dr failed update, things got really real, really fast.
Specs before the initial update
ROM: CM10 nightly, Jellybean 4.1.x
CWM: 5.5.0.4
Kernel Version (?): 9.4.3.30-20120604 (I'm not sure with this, it says something about "android carhu-user" before it)
same thing just happened to me. Im going to download another version of CM and try that. It might just be that.

That's the thing, though, I have no idea how I'm supposed to get it to my device now...

Have you tried this? I was just thinking about it because I can't reflash my recovery and thought this may be the way to start over.
OK I downloaded the us jb update and extracted to my external SD card and flashed it in recovery after wipes. Everything is good now.
Edit: flash recovery in fast boot.

How did you flash it in fastboot? I can't figure out how to get to something that's on the external SD card. What were the exact commands you used?
1. Download any software from this topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1697227
2. Unpack it one so you have a zip without UpdateLauncher
3. Rename the zip to EP201_768_SDUPDATE.zip
4. Put on a sdcard into the root (the sdcard should be clean, no other files)
5. Boot you tablet to RCK (Volume down + power, then volume up)
6. Let the magic begin!!! Take some minutes.
Attention! JB user pleas choose a JB ROM, don't flash ICS ROM on JB bootloader.
You tried this method with no love? I was able to flash stock pretty easily doing this.

Does that work with CWM? I don't have the stock bootloader on it.
This works only if you didn't flash custom recovery, it is the best method for locked devices. But you can still flash any stock ROM from CWM (but I suggest to use TWRP, you can install it from external sd). And you can push the ROM to internal memory via adb. I think you can install stock ROM via fastboot too, I am not sure, but the command fastboot update should help.
I managed to get it working again. If you can get to fastboot, push a bootloader that supports an external SD cards (like TWRP) and then from that install one of the official ASUS firmwares. From there, you have to root again, but it's better than having a device that won't boot at all.
hi
i have a optimus 3d p920 on orange (uk) (just unlocked to any network)
android version- Gingerbread 2.3.5
software version- V20d june 2012
everytime i try and put a rom on, the phone goes into boot loop (lg logo then unlit black screen)
i root using megatron
install ROM manager
install clockwork recovery 6.0.1
I download zip
plug in phone
cody zip to sd card but NOT external sd card (filemanager shows it as /mnt/sdcard)
go on ROM manager
click on boot in recovery
already done back up of original rom saved on sd card clockworkmodrecovery file
i wipe data/format
i wipe cache partition
then go i go into advance then wipe cache dev
then i go back on to menu
click on install rom from sdcard
find the zip then click yes to install
says its installed then i click reboot and then it becomes stuck
sometimes it would install CM10 or PACMAN (after turning it on and off for a while) then after about 5 mins would reboot its self and get stuck again
so i will then unplug battery, hold Vol up connect usb and open up lg support tool and then recover as carnt get into cwm recovery and install backup from sd card.
i have noticed in the mount/format tab that only the /data is mounted and not (as follows)
/external sd card
/sdcard
/system
/emmc
as they have mount next to them...
its driving me mental
so please help
(if posted in wrong section then sorry im new)

Thank you I got the same result when trying your last rom version 6.
But il try this using TeamWin recovery not cwm and defo not ROM Manager (is it a common problem with ROM Manager)
Thank you
I flashed v28b.bin and the .fls through smartflash tool and il installed and then went into twrp recovery to install the ROM after.
I wiped everything and installed the rom rebooted all installed but now i dont have any network or imei.
Baseband now says omap4430/xmm6260 but no service only wifi.
Also the device kept on rebooting after a while to lg boot screen then the
Screen would go dodgy before reloading back to o.s.
So i restored just the v28b but still no network.
Iv just read i should have hardboot after flashing v28b and before install the rom (would that have caused the problems)
hello i have big problem i do factory reset in 28c and i have ICS Bootloaders (wkpark's 1.25a Bootloaders) .and ICS CWM Recovery i install ics - 28b.zip and now afetr restart i will get in bootloop.... what i must do for fix it????
Only way i know how is , use the resurrection guide but instead of flashing the ported ics , flash v28b.
This will erase everything , so be mindful of your data.
Don't worry or panic , it's unbrickable with wkpark bootloaders unless it has hardware damage.
If you can't do it , i can help you via teamviewer.

If you have a card reader (or another phone that can accept your external SD), you can fix this. See my guide (link's in my signature) and read the troubleshooting section. You will find a flashable zip that breaks the loop. Copy it to your SD, put the SD back into your phone and flash the zip in recovery. Your phone will boot up. You must then flash a new recovery.
Sorry I didn't see this earlier!
