[Q] Need Help! - General Questions and Answers

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

might want to try flashing a stock rom via odin cause it sounds like you have stock recovery now, i dont know if anyone will pick you up in the q&a section, since yours is us cellular i dont think they have a forum for that specific contractor just only t-mobile at&t and verizon would have one. you can ask them in their q&a but tell them your situation and that your on us cellular. good luck mate. if ya have any questions just ask right here.

[Q] Help, stuck in bootloop with CM 10 ROM

So I was able to successfully root my AT&T HTC One X and decided I wanted to install the CM 10 ROM (1st ROM install). I did all the data backups with Titanium, downloaded the latest zip files from cyanogenMod (both the 12/13 and 12/14 nightly versions), transferred them to my phone, booted into recovery (TWRP), did a back-up, did a system wipe, flashed the ROM and then did a reboot. However, when it boots it gets stuck in the boot-up screen (bootloop) and doesn't do anything. I have read on this and it keeps saying to wipe system data again and flash the ROM again and it keeps doing this. I want to install this ROM, but I need some help. Any suggestions on what I did wrong?
Note: I accidentally posted this in the Android Q&A section, so I apologize for the double post. I just think this is probably the best place to get my answer.
Did you flash the boot.img?
I did, but incorrectly the first time. I flashed it the right way and everything is working good. Then only problem I have now is when restoring from Titanium Backup it gives me an error from a process called com.android.phone (I think that is what it said). So I wiped it again and rebooted and everything is fine. I can reinstall all the apps, but what could cause that? Could it be some of the data backed up doesn't cooperate with this ROM? Either way I love the CM10 ROM.

if they are backups from sense, that *MAY* cause problems, but don't quote me on that. I don't use sense, can't say for sure
OK, maybe that is why. Not a big deal since I haven't had the One X too long. Thanks for the help guys.
Good to know

RESOLVED! [Q] No network access after trying to install Cyanogenmod. Phone dead now.

I tried to install the latest and greatest version of cyanogenmod this morning but once it got to the activating part, it would not activate. I tried it a couple times, rebooted, wiped, installed and tried again, but nothing was working.
So, I had enough and wiped everything and restored my previous ROM's backup (CleanROM).
But now, even CleanROM can't connect to the mobile network. When I try to do the *228 thing, I first got an error something about a invalid SIM card. So, I rebooted and now the error message says "A Verizon Wireless SIM card has activated your service and updated your phone's roaming capabilities".
What's weird about that is that it doesn't even call, just pops up that message and I still have no network!
Could it be possible that have the wrong radio now? Anyone know what it's supposed to be and where to download the correct one?
Right now: I535VRLG7
What the f happened? What did cyanogenmod do to my phone??? Please help, my phone is dead in the water at this point.
Was it 10.1.0.1? I tried flashing it myself and data would not work either, first time ever happened to me since running CM. Apparently others are having issues with it as well reading the thread on the dev section. I restored my backup of 10.1.0 and it was fine again thankfully. Also you aren't supposed to *228 on a 4G phone, might want to do a search but others have said that can mess up your phone as well.

Yes, that's the version I was trying to install.
I created a backup of CleanROM that I was running before flashing, but that's not working now either. Network is dead for me.
I am having the exact same issue. Flashed the newest "stable" build of CM 10 and now the phone won't activate. Flashed CM10 RC5 and phone won't activate. Installed my backup I made before I flashed and it will not make/receive calls either. I tried searching the g+ community but did not see anything.:crying:

I'm on I535VRBMB1, but I was on I535VRLG7 for some reason. Upgrading did not help.
Welp, going to have to Odin back to stock. Nothing has worked. It's dead. Time to bring it to stock and have Verizon fix or replace it. Thanks cyanogenmod!
I hope I don't have to do that also. I posted in the cm g+ community and I'm waiting on an answer atm. Jumped in irc chat but got no help.

No need to take your phone back to verizon.....The way to fix it is to Odin back to I535VRALF2. Once stock dial *2767*3855# let it do it's thing when it finishes reboot. After that 4G will be back. Re root and flash CM 10.1.0 NOT 10.1.0.1
Well an update on this. I flashed MIUIv5 found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2232800 and it booted up and worked like a champ. From there I booted back into CWM and wiped, etc and installed a fresh RC5 and gapps. When the phone booted up the phone would take calls but would force close. From here I booted back into CWM, again wiped and then installed my RC5 backup I made this morning that was working and crossed my fingers. Well when the phone booted up it is working 100%!
I guess my question is what did 10.1.0.1 break that a flash to MIUIv5 fix?
Same issue. I had to wipe everything, format everything (maybe wasn't needed), flashed the newest nightly, latest baseband (something something F1), and gApps of course. I then had to check the "mobile network" settings and change it to SIM card (instead of NV) then reboot, and it worked.
The "stable" builds have been less stable than the nightlies lately, dunno why...
i'm also having this issue guys, I've noticed that my imei is 0. I've tried punching in the codes to get the utility, but can't get anything working...totally lost
RESOLVED!
It was a PITA, but I got 4G back with CM!
This is how I did it, but be forewarned that your device will be wiped, and it will not be a quick fix.
I first used this post (Section 5) to Odin back to stock.:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1762709
Once I was back to stock, the network was still not working. So I dialed "*2767*3855#", it did something, rebooted and then 4G worked!
After that, I was able to follow the same guide from above (Section 1) to root the device, unlock the bootloader and install a recovery.
Once I was at that point, I installed CM from recovery. I had wanted to install the cm stable version 10.1.0, however I failed to copy that to my SD card before I started this whole process.
I had just moved and don't have many of my "tools" (i.e. sd adapters), so I couldn't even download it on my computer and copy it over. Oh, I also performed a factory wipe at this point as well as format the davlik and system...oops. So, yeah, couldn't simply boot it back up easily to copy the files over...got ahead of myself.
Anyways, I kept my fingers crossed and installed the only one that was on the sd card which was the nightly from 6/29. The good news is that worked!
I have since installed the latest nightly (6/30), because why the heck not? I was already on the previous, so it "shouldn't" hurt, right????
Nope, didn't hurt!
So, now I am running the latest nightly with full network access!
Whew, what a pain! Hope this helps you guys!

Thanks!
I'm on vacation and tried to flash 10.1.0.1 and got hosed on the the radio connection. Nothing would work. Found an old nightly, 6/21 I believe, on my external SD card. Flashed that bad boy and I'm up and running again. Will do more trouble shooting when I get home in a few weeks and have my PC in front of me.

Back to RC5
I had a similar issue, upgraded to 10.1.01 and lost all data connectivity. Wiped clean and tried to upgrade again, then I could not get past the network activation screen.
Wiped and went back to a backup of RC5 and it restarted with less issues, but I still needed to go and correct the Mobile Network RUIM/SIM settings before I got data back.
RC5 has been solid, so I'm going to stick to it until there's a fix for 10.1.01.
this didnt work for me

odd black screen after every boot/reboot ?

i've been using CWM recovery and CM nightlies. they've been just fine. today i restored a two day old backup, as i didn't care for the current nightly.
now the phone black screens after the samsung splash.
i've tried:
factory reset
wipe dalvick/cache
restoring other backups
flashing other nightlies
and the phone will boot for the first time, but if i select 'reboot' or 'power down' on the next boot it's only a samsung splash, then black screen (no cm splash, no response from buttons input), and will not boot again.
what's the problem ?

i've done that. right now, i've wiped everything, and then flashed a nightly, and it will not reboot !
it will only boot the -one- time directly after flashing a new rom. any reboot attempts after that means it freezes, or fails, with a black screen directly after the samsung splash.
what have i missed ?

Sniped lol
i've wiped everything. flashed back to stock via odin, rooted, just like always.
i've even wiped in between.
after the FIRST clean boot, there is no rebooting. all it does is continue to hang after the samsung splash. no cyanogenmod, no stock rom, no nothing, nothing will boot the SECOND TIME.
i really don't understand this.
i'm using CWM recovery 5.5.0.4, cm-nightly 10-05, and it just don't think it's going to work properly again. it's a real shame, cause i really like the size, weight, and speed of this phone. but if it won't boot, i can't use it.
if anyone has any tips, i'll try them. at this point i really don't mind destroying it, and it might make me feel better to do so.
i meant to add, it doesn't matter if i use a backup, flash a fresh new rom, or use stock. the first boot works fine, but all boots after that wether from powering down or selecting 'reboot' fail.
maybe this part will help -
if i wipe the phone completely, it will boot. let's call this boot 1.
i can setup the phone, or change nothing in settings, doesn't appear to matter, and choose 'power down' or 'reboot'. let's call this reboot 1.
the next time i power on the phone, black screen. no CM splash, nothing. i guess we'll call this hang 1 ?
ideas ?

hey thank you for that. i've removed the old cwm recovery, flashed new, lots of other flashes, and it finally works again. now to dig up a non-corrupted backup and hopefully be back to working.
thanks button was used
well, after all of that i'm going to roll with cm-10.0, cwm 6.xomething, so i can have a working compass on oruxmaps.
i won't be updating until 10.x begins to support compass functions again.
see yall then !

Make sure you use the latest cm10 nightly, as the old stable one is a lot less "stable" than the name suggests, and is lacking features

thanks for the tip !
i finally got all the corrupted files (or whatever was causing problems) rm'd from both the phone and sdcard.
as of yesterday i had CM-10.o + CWM 6.0.3.8 and gapps 2012-8 (i think) working nicely on the phone. backed up a nandroid of all of it two times, and restored them to make sure restores were working. yes, everything fine.
as of today, i have CM-10.2 (latest nightly) + CMW 6.0.3.8 and gapps (current) working nicely on the phone. backed CURRENT up nandroid on sdcard, and restored a few times to make sure. yes, working fine.
seems it was
A) corrupted files/filessystems
and/or
B) too old a clockworkmod recovery
C) unstable CM version( s )
but now all is fine. thanks to all that helped !

[Q] Lock on SIII screen after 1 successful boot to MOAR 7.1

Hi,
I have a rooted VZW S3 and have been running Jelly Beans build 20 for a while now. Wanting to give a 4.3 rom a try I loaded up MOAR 7.1. Wiped everything, I possibly could without wiping my SD card. Flashed the rom, no problems. Booted it up, no problems. Then if I do a reboot, even after it has sat for a while without me doing anything to it, I get stuck on the Samsung SIII screen. I can do a battery pull and go to TWRP then wipe and get back to my Jelly Beans, but I'd like to give MOAR 7.1 a try. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Here is another user solved the issue, take from the thread:
"What I did was upgrade my recovery with Goo, I removed the SD card, I wiped the internal memory (not sure if this is necessary but what the hell), factory wiped, installed 7.1, once the phone booted up I logged in to gmail, let it sync, didn't install anything else and rebooted just to make sure it reboots fine, and it worked. Then I installed all my apps with TB without data, just the apps. That is what I did. I had the same problem as you for two days and was frustrated but then I read that if you upgrade your recovery it would work fine. I am assuming you are trying to wipe cache and it is telling you that it can't be mounted, that is another problem I was having, so I am assuming that by wiping the internal memory it cleared that problem up. I hope this helps you out. Hopefully someone here can either back up what I am saying or call me crazy and help you out. Good luck."

I recently upgraded my phone from 4.4.4 to the latest OTA. It was working fine for a while but it crashed, rebooted and keeps (re)optimizing the apps. It'll get stuck on some of them for a long time and might make it through, or I hard reboot it and it does it all over. Whenever it does make it through, it says "starting apps" and then reboots and does it all over again.
I've cleared the cache multiple times and restored the stock recovery, but still not working. Does anyone else have any other suggestions that I could try??
Also I read somewhere that there was a zip I could possibly flash to use all the cores, as lollipop only uses one during this process? Does anyone know where that is?
Thanks.

To make things clearer. Previous what ROM were you on? After your proclaimed (OTA), what was the ROM suppose to be?
I went from the Oneplus One CM 4.4.4 to the CM 5.1 OTA. Not sure why you're don't believe me..
I think I might have bad memory or flash or something at this point..
So since yesterday I've tried using the tutorials here to flash stock Kitkat with the same errors happening. When it boots up, I get a done of crashes on things like gapps and process.acore. I also tried flashing the stock Lollipop; both using the non fastboot and fastboot way. Every time wiping everything with all the same results. The only rom I've had some slight uptime with has been slimrom without gapps as there's not much running there. Once I add the gapps package to it, processes start crashing again.
Does anyone know of a memory/cpu/flash test I could try, or any other suggestions? Thank you.
