Hi I have a T-Mobile G2x which I rooted a few days ago. Last night I was playing around with a program called "Kernal Lite" (or something to that effect) and I installed a MOD called Trinity CM 7. I knew CM stood for CyanogenMod so I installed it. It was rebooting and when it got to the part where it said T-Mobile G2x in silver letters, it froze for about 2 hours. So I panicked. I went into recovery mode and tried to install the factory firmware again but it gave me an error saying "E: Signature Verification Failed". So I formatted the system and everything and now it doesn't load. I can go into the recovery menu and I can let it load. If I let it load it goes past the LG logo and then TRINITY shows up in green letters and it freezes. Can anyone help me please? Thanks.
P.S.
Sorry if this is in the wrong section as I didn't see a help section in the G2x forum.
What you did was flash a Kernel that wasn't compatible with your ROM. You should be able to put another ROM (like CM7) and flash it through recovery..
Wow really? So how would a noob like me do that? Thanks so much for your help btw.
I sent you a pm
I am noob to ROMS . First time flashed CM9 using ROM manager and selected backup data. after Installing Rom phone restarted and stuck on screen displaying "INSERT COIN" and options are given like
PHONE
GAMING
BROWSING
PRODUCTIVITY
ANYTHING.
Arrow is stuck on ANYTHING. and Volume buttons and hard reboot isn't working. I pulled battery off and restarted it but still stuck on same screen. Tried it many times. Any help would be appreciated .
which CM9 ROM did you flash? Can you provide a link? Usually I prefer to use CWM Recovery to flash ROMs.
Thank you for reply!!
I solved the problem, I was using wrong cm9 zip.. restored the backup and flashed the correct one. Now It's All good now, enjoy galaxyS3 addon. But it's full of bugs right now I must say. Hoping for a quick update.

SiyahKernel s3-v1.8.8
Posted on January 13, 2013
Changelog
rebased on i9300 update7 sources (sudden-death issue is supposedly fixed in this source drop)
reverted temporary fix for exynos-mem exploit as i9300-update7 sources already fix that
cm10.1 is now supported in dual-boot configurations
1.8.7->1.8.8: fixed cm10.1 not booting when installed as 2ndROM (a tiny typo in ramfs)
BUT,it doesn't work anyway (just trying now at it's stuck on the boot screen)
Just try it and report back! :good:
You do realize that the siyah kernel is for the international S3 which has different hardware then our s3? If you are using a kernel for a different phone then of course it wont boot....

By "International", you mean the exynox version unlocked right?

Flash problems
I've had installs stick at the boot animation or shortly thereafter several times. Usually it's because of a dumb mistake. The only thing that's consistently worked for me is flashing back to stock VZ firmware via Odin and doing the whole process over from root through installation. It sucks but it always works.
Howdy.
I've just flashed CyanogenMod 10.1 - 20130315 to my droid 4 with Safestrap, and I haven't been able to boot into it; the cyanogenmod splash screen with the rotating wheel graphic shows up, but it spins for upwards of 40 minutes without doing anything.
I followed the guide on the cyanogenmod wiki for the droid 4 device. The forum won't let me post a link to it.
Before I installed I wiped / factory reset, and after install I wiped cache/dalvik; still no dice. I've tried doing the same process several times (even wiking the system before trying to reflash), but the same result has always occurred: ever unhelpful eternal wheel...
I'm a bit at my wits end; I haven't been able to find any other information about this that wasn't solved by wiping cache / dalvik, so I turn to y'all for help.
Same here
I installed Cyanogenmod 10.1 with CWM the link:[Recovery/Bootstrap][5-sep-2012] CWM Touch recovery v6.0.1.1 - xda-developers and i went ahead and installed the mod: cm-10.1-20130211 all went fine untill i noticed that my camera is not working (not a big deal) but then i noticed that my phone only saw 488MB out of my 32GB this was un acceptable after i found how to connect my phone to my pc so it showed up as a storage device do that i copied the same mob but a different version (cm-10.1-20130129_v2) so i went ahead and booted into Android system recovery <3e> and i did a factory reset and then i said oh f*** i need CWMR to install the thing so i just waited for it to do its thing and then reboted the device thinking after i boot up i will reinstall CWMR but i was never able to boot because im stuck on the boot animation. Been waiting for +20min or so and nothing please help me what can i do this is my only phone please help
help with CM10.1 ROM issue
Hi folks,
this is my first post on XDA. I have a Sprint htc EVO 4G LTE phone which was running on JB.
Thought of root and flash with CM. So, first I unlocked the bootloader using htc dev and installed TWRP custom recovery and then rooted.
Then I flashed the stable CM 10 then flashed gapps which is compatible for CM 10 version. so far so good. oh, btw I did nandroid backup before flash and also wiped to factory reset, cache and Delvic cache.
After the flash i clicked on reboot system and I see the Cyanogenmod boot, but its stuck at that stage and I waited for more than an hour. No luck.
Thank god I did back up before this, otherwise not sure what I'm gonna do.
But, could someone tell me why it gets stuck at this point. I know some of you guys had this problem. I searched everywhere but didn't get help. I thought of posting this in android development forum, but as a newbie I can't do that.
Please help me out.
P.S: when I'm on boot screen (power button + vol down button) I see unlocked at the top but I also have TAMPERED in red color on top of that. Was this normal? or do you think that is causing the problem? and what should I do now?
(First of all I am not an expert)
It happens sometimes about 1/10 of every flashes I did with cm10
It might because some files didn't get copied or got corrupted.
Just try this method
Format data
Format system
Format cache
Wipe dalvick cache and factory reset
Now flash the ROM
Hit thanks if I helped

(First of all I am not an expert)
First wipe every thing(system,data,cache,dalvick,android secure....)
Now install ROM,
Wait don't install gapps
Now find an extended cm10.1 kernel or lupus kernel(or such kernels) for your device and flash it via pc
I prefer flashing kernel after installing the rom

Ask in the Xperia X10 mini forums.
Three-finger salute
Ran into this situation today when I tried to restore a backup and I couldn't get past the CM10 logo on bootup. Holding down all three buttons, power, volume up and down, got me back to the Clockworkmod boot screen.
ETA: Sorry, posted in wrong forum. My situation pertained to a Samsung Galaxy 5 Media Player.

Hi...i just happened to flash my x10 mini to cm9-robyn yesterday...same thing happpened to me...boot the animation until run of battery....i accidently booted it to recovery and just leave it...fortunately after sometime it booted by itself and run as normal. The cm9 run ok except the wifi is not working. Hope that will help. I am not an expert.
Hi guys...thanks for taking a minute to help me out.
I have been using the Cyanogenmod Nightlies for a few months, and have recently been experiencing a few random quirks since upgrading to the new version of Android. I decided that I'd do a full wipe and then install the new nightly. Everything worked fine, the phone booted, I could use apps, etc. Then, I decided to restore some of my apps and data from Titanium Backup.
It took about 40 minutes, and then finally got stuck on 98% which was "android data" or "system data" or something like that...i checked back a few minutes later and the phone was completely dead/frozen. I eventually pulled the battery and rebooted the phone, and now it's just stuck in a bootloop.
When I try to boot into recovery, it freezes on the "Samsung Galaxy S3" screen for a while, and then turns off. However, i CAN boot into download mode.
Can someone please point me in the right direction here? I know that android 4.2.2 reworks some of the system folders, making reverting back to a previous version difficult..? I don't know what to do. Really, I just need to be able to get into recovery, but I'm too ignorant to figure it out.
Thanks so much for taking the time to help me, it's very much appreciated!
hold tight, guys! for some reason, it booted into recovery after like the 50th try. hopefully i can figure it out from here! thanks
Hi, I have problem with my A510. The situation right now is that i am stuck in CWM menu. I mean, i can let the system to boot up, but as soon i see the desktop it freezes and reboot. And then over and over again.
I have cynogenmod version 10.1.2 with android 4.2.2. As I said a few weeks it was ok, but now suddenly system had stopped.
Is there any solution. Of course i can't get adb commands to work.
I tried to flash another ROM, but no luck. It says update successfully installed but, when i restart i still have old cyanogenmod installed. I don't understand this...:crying:
Anyone?
I think there must be a solution for this. Please help!
