cm-11-20140227-NIGHTLY-falcon --- Bootloop issue after OTA-Update - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
today i have made a OTA-Update over the Cyanogenmod-Updater (CWM-Version: 6.0.4.6) from Version cm-11-20140220-NIGHTLY-falcon to cm-11-20140227-NIGHTLY-falcon and everything went fine.
But after the first reboot i have got a bootloop issue. The only thing you can do is, to wait about 4-5 minutes; then the system starts normally und you can enter your pin-code.
Another interesting thing was that after the update my "es file explorer" get warning -> something like missing file and was deinstalled by itself without asking me.
Now i installed the es file explorer again and get the same warning again.
Hope you can help me.

Did you try to wipe cache and dalvic cache in CWM?

No. I just make a dirty flash over the Cyanogemod-Updater under Settings.

So, i have made now a wipe cache and dalvik cache in CWM but this does not solve the bootloop issue and the strange deinstallation of my apps.
Whenever i start the Phone with the power button it tooks about 5 minutes to enter my pin code.
After each system start one app is in random order deinstalled by itself. This time my es file explorer is ok but gmail was deinstalled.
I have had never such issues on the cm-11-20140220-NIGHTLY-falcon.
The cm-11-20140227-NIGHTLY-falcon seems to be buggy and should be removed from the official OTA-Update.

Hi, I have the same situation as you. I flashed from 24th to 27th, everything was OK. After that I flashed pink kernel from 21th.
After that flashing I had over and over bootloops. Wipe/factory reset - nothing changes. I formated internal card fully and now I would like to flash I don't know stock or maybe still CM but I'm sure not 27th release.

I have installed ClockworkMod-Recovery (CWM): cwm-6.0.4.6
I don't have any problems with the recovery but with the Nightly Update from 27th February.
I can't understand how the cm-11-20140227-NIGHTLY-falcon can get official, when a lots of people have the same problem: bootloops.

I totally agree with you. I won't do a full format of the internal card. Just waiting for the next Nightly in the hope that dhacker improves this issue.
Do you have also problems with GMAIL. After each restart GMAIL is lost. I must install it each time new.

I had the same problem and haven't fixed it yet. I had CWM 6.0.4.5 installed when CM updater tried to install 0227 and I'm wondering if that could be the problem as dhacker29 recommended an update to the CWM he specified to avoid "accidental wiping of critical partitions."
I dunno, but so far it looks like I'm going to have to restore stock firmware and start from scratch....

So, I installed by mfastboot for now the newest stock rom 4.4.2 DE, updated to the latest release and rooted.
Maybe I'll flash also kernel to faux's release. Very strange issue. I flashed CM several times and today's issue was the first time.

I've just wiped /data/media ("sdcard") and have successfully installed and booted feb 27th build. Strange problem but that looks like the solution....

I was at the 0224 build and flawlessly updated to the 0227 build... no issue so far. i am using twrp...

Hey guys,
i have flashed the newest Nightly cm-11-20140228-NIGHTLY-falcon.zip today and everything was solved. No bootloops or lost of apps.
With pink kernel the system rocks. This is awesome. Thanks to dhacker29, pinkflozd, faux123, razrqcom-dev-team :good::good::good:

Im Using Since last two nightlys no Pink Kernel anymore. The battery life under Stock cm Rocks now. Bat i have Crap Sounds in Calls Since then..

I can confirm your sound problem.
I am using the nightly version 0228 and pink kernel 0228 and would recommend you to use the pink kernel because you will feel the boost in performance.
Yes the battery will drain a little bit more than on stock-cm but it is worth it. I can use my phone with pink kernel two days long without charging it.

So I will try Again Pink Kernel =).. I hope the Sound in Call Problem get fixed soon

I Flashed last Pink Kernel, youre right, really smoother than stock cm Kernel :thumbup:

Please flash the TWRP 2.6.3.3 recovery first then flash the newest nightly cm-11-20140304-NIGHTLY-falcon.zip .
I am using 0303-NIGHTLY with TWRP 2.6.3.3 and don't have such issues like bootloop again.
But it is very important to flash the recovery first, then flash cm-11-20140304-NIGHTLY-falcon.zip with Cyanogenmod-Updater under settings.
If you do otherwise flash cm first you will encounter the same problem.

[Q] Having slight problems with CROMI 3.0.4

First of all, this is an awesome rom and I'm very thankful to the developer.
My problem is that there is still some lag here and there and I've had a couple of random reboots. I'm wondering if I made a mistake flashing the rom.
I was on the .23 firmware. I flashed TWRP 2.2.2.3 because that's what it says in the how-to-root-JB guide and I was too impulsive to notice that in the cleanrom thread it says to flash latest TWRP. D: Does it matter?
After booting to recovery I flashed 3.0.3, wiped cache and dalvik, then booted to the rom to see it working fine. Went back to recovery, flashed 3.0.4, wiped cache and dalvik again. Everything looked fine except for the occasional slight lag and the random reboots.
If this is caused by using a wrong version of TWRP, how should I proceed?
I made a backup of stock rom before flashing; Do I restore stock, then flash the newest version of TWRP and then cleanrom? Would that be the safe way to fix the leftover lag and reboot?

It probably doesn't make any difference but I would use the latest twrp as that guide is out of date.
You should not get any reboots at all. Most people are rock solid stable and so should you be.
Maybe your infinity can't cope with the overclocked kernel. Please reflash with the stock kernel for testing.
I think I read somewhere about a CROMI forum? If there is one, can someone point me to it?

The correct way to do this would be to use the kernel switcher? Or reflash 3.0.3 + the patch?

clean rom

Looking for some input on clean ROM on the TF300T,
This is my second time trying to install it and both times it was successful, however as soon as the boot image loads up it stays stuck loading... I did download the file again thinking it may have been corrupted.
It has been sitting there loading for 20 minutes now.
I am using cwm the latest version and I did not install a kernel still running stock
Any ideas on what could cause this?

CWM has issues on this unit. Many, many complaints. I use twrp. If you decide to use twrp be sure to choose JB and tf300t version.
Clean ROM is freaking amazing! Seriously just do it I love the mods I can make for it too! Can't wait till I get my volume long press seek mod done! Love this device!

OK. It was just a suggestion since the problem you are experiencing is usually cleared by using twrp.

I'm sorry it is hard to tell since you have chosen an older twrp to install. The current is five versions later and was updated as the kernels were updated to account for changes. The rom you are flashing is based on 10.4.4.25.

Use TWRP 2.4.1.0
You are using a very old version of TWRP that has bugs with AROMA installer. So that is most likely where your issues are.
What ROM are you ccoming from? What boot loader are you on.
Sounds to me like you need to upgrade your boot loader and possibly do a full wipe - make sure you are on latest TWRP first otherwise you could brick if you use an older recovery!

The only ROM i was able to flash that was fully functioning is cm10.1,
i have also flashed PA 2.9 but had some bugs i couldn't stand (screen rotation not working, extended desktop with no pie)
as for boot loader it says 1.00e by "US _Epad-10.4.2.20-20121228" A03
I just updated the TWRP as recommended on the other post (v2.4.1.0)
on every flash i wipe dalvik / Cache / Factory reset.
Before attempting to boot into Clean Rom i also followed the steps on screen saying to wipe cache and dalvik.
I m hoping PA releases a 3.0 for this device and/or i m able to get Clean rom running

If you are coming from cm10.1 you will definitely need to do a full wipe as it is non stock. It does say this in the first post. You only do a dalvik and cache wipe when upgrading from the same ROM or in CROMI's case from stock.
Do a data wipe in recovery, make sure you have a titanium backup or equivalent if you want to restore apps.
Success!!!
It worked perfectly fine after i install the back up i did before i flashed my 1st costume rom,
I rooted made a back up at stock/rooted... It just would not install from a full wipe,
it install fine once i flashed that specific backup and dirty flashed then wiped dalvik and cache before booting.

[Q] First boot taking forever .

Hi ,guys .
So my problem is the first boot (on my p3110 )takes an eternity , whatever I'm trying to flash it wouldn't succesfully have the first boot .
I've tried omni,slimkat and CM but nothing works .
Dumb I was ,in my blind tries, I've deleted my backups and now the only place i can flash is my microSD card.
Help please , I'm really stuck . :crying:

The first boot always takes longer as it is setting up, but no longer than ~5 minutes.
Anyway... If you've waited and it is boot looping, try these steps:
Make sure your recovery is up to date.
Wipe system, data, cache, and dalvik cache.
Flash ROM, gapps, and any addons
Wipe cache and dalvik
Reboot. After first reboot is complete and on setup screen, wait 5 minutes and reboot into recovery.
Wipe cache and dalvik again. Reboot
This reboot could also take ~5 minutes, but the others shouldn't as long as you don't wipe cache and dalvik.
You should see an "Android is Upgrading" screen. After this is done, complete setup and you should be good to go.

Back to stock rom for now, prepare (charge until full).
Re-root, then reboot to recovery to try again flashing the rom.
Always format /system, /cache, /data/media first when installing different roms. Good luck

Stock rom is working fine? Is root working on stock?
Did you get any errors while flashing costom roms?
I remember a folk here got a same problem as you, and i think it's not resolved yet..
Maybe you and him have a "special" devices.
Don't worry, it's not a problem with your ext-sd because i use it all the time. and if it was ext-sd problem, you'll get an error while flashing.
I suggest messages devs in developement section, maybe they can figure out what is wrong.
And of course i think it's not safe to restore others nandroid backup, so don't mind find it.
God speed, wish I can help you more :angel:

Like I said earlier, you should have flashing stock rom first to remove root via odin/hemidall.. you can find it at sammobile,com
then re-root with link i gave earlier again via odin/hemidall, and format in recovery like i said earlier. no wonder you still fail..
you should have philz touch recovery instead cwm if you succeed.

[Q] - No Calls or SMS OxygenOS or CM12

OK I am having a problem, when i rooted and followed the direction to install both OxygenOS or CM12 nightly I am unable to receive any SMS or phone calls except after a reboot. Once i reboot any saved messages come through and then once the phone sleeps it stops. I have rolled back to CM11S for the time being. Any steps or tricks to follow to get this issue resolved.
"followed the direction to install both OxygenOS or CM12 nightly" does it mean you are using Multiboot?

No just flashing either one I have this result. Not sure if I am doing something wrong in the process.
Steps:
Wipe all but internal
Flash Rom (then gapps if CM12)
Flash SU
Reboot

Well all i could suggest it, also please flash the CM12 firmware once. In theory oxygenOS and CM12 firmwares are compatible. So flash like this:
Install CM12 fimrware zip
Wipe System, Data, Cache, Dalvik etc without Internal memory
Flash Rom Zip
Flash Gapps
Flash SuperSu
and then let it boot and settle down. Before restorign apps or data, check for any issues again
seems to be sitting stable at the moment, will keep testing. but thanks for the input.

Great! Let me know if the bug persists. And be careful with firmwares. For CM12 roms, just flash the firmware once and you're good to go for all of then.

spoke too soon, after letting the phone sit ideal for a few hours and testing incoming calls\sms nothing came through. restored a backup of CM11S, for the week to have a working device. will keep trying to get to a root cause later in the week. will also open a help ticket with OnePlus to see if there is something I am missing as well since this happens with OxygenOS as well.

Excellent! I am going to test it right now and will report!!!!
Update: I was on ColorOS, flashed cm13 recovery and done factory reset, formatting cache is taking around 8 minutes, is that normal?
Flashing ARM64 opengapps for 6.0 end up with error: E:Installation error in /sideload/package.zip (Status 255) - seems like recovery problem as many people report this issue. I only dont know if TWRP will work with CM13 rom
Personally I'm using a 12.1 recovery at the moment. The 13.0 recovery is still WIP AFAIK.

Ok, will try cm12.1 recovery, what about gapps? Which one to use? Btw I have done factory reset again, flashed cm13 rom only, phone rebooted and loading apps (total of 87 I think), then done reboot, then only showing blue android logo for very long time, like 10 minutes followed with another "starting apps" screen with 21 left or so, now another reboot with blue android logo. Is this normal for MM roms? Still not finished.
EDIT: after another 5 minutes same screen appears with saying starting android... 21 apps left, blue android logo when done - seems to be as bootloop as it is going nowhere from here.
CM13 rom flashed fine over TWRP, flashing gaaps now seems to be alright as well (open_gapps-arm64-6.0-mini-20151218).
Very exited, good job
so far I am getting the boot-loop also. will wait to here what Nexus5-32GB will post (if any success with the cyanogen recovery) before reverting back
Sadly "Androis is starting... Starting apps" is last message I can see, the soft reboot then followed wit this bootloop. Same when flashed with and without gapps from TWRP, cm12.1 and cm13 recoveries.
When doing factory reset in CM12.1 recovery I get this:
-- Wiping data...
Formating /data...
E:Failed to start /data/data/org.cyanogenmod.audiofx
Formating /cache...
Guy's I got it to boot up and install so far everything seems to work okay (Minus minor distortion when automatically switching to landscape, portrait and at start up) . I am going to post a picture if I can. I believe the issues arise when we try updating to Marshmallow from lollipop and we have made major modifications. (for example I had lolli viper and a host of other customization's). I had to do a factory reset wipe and format. I then installed a backup that was untouched bone dry cyanogen mod (no g apps yet). let that boot-up and rebooted into recovery. I then downloading the nightly form (today) the 18th from the website with the marshmallow G-apps. Pushed to my sd card, wiped cache and installed the nightly and installed the correct marshmallow G-apps (ARM 64 6.0) right away. After this,I rebooted phone (it will take a while; almost as long as it did when the first nightly for lollipop came out and we flashed from color OS). It's up and running on my phone. I also still have and used the twrp recovery.

going to give this a go, but I was doing factory reset and format as well, is that mean the factory reset doesnt work as it should? Flashing cm 12 rom first to be able to boot to cm13 rom later is very strange way when you think about it

indeed i agree 100%. I really think it boils down to if we have any customization. I had the same error (in regards to the audio FX) You should try installing a fresh clean cyanogen nightly without g-apps or any mods. Let it boot-up and try the steps i mentioned. do you have an audio customization or any that might have changed something (it shouldn't matter but I'm considering any and everything)? If this is the case the recovery might need tweaking as that would mean somehow or someway it doesn't allow us to properly wipe and format (another consideration). I really hope you and everybody else can also update. I'm trying to upload screenshots of my phone

I was on ColorOS while ago, went to TWRP and done manual wipe of Dalvik, System, Data and Cache. Installed latest cm12.1 rom without any gapps and let it boot up to home screen. Went back to TWRP and done same wipe as before. Installed cm13 without any gapps and this time I got little further than ussualy, I could see message "finishing boot" but again end up in bootloop as before. So no luck in my case...
About the error in TWRP: yes I was using viper4android before and it seems the TWRP recovery doesnt wipe the device right way - well actually not even CM recoveries can I think.

The events you listed I went through the same exact sequence. Keep trying it took for me; after a painstaking install experience of course. Also you're right Cyanogen recovery doesn't allow full wipe and install.

am not gonna mess with restarts and so on. What I just did was, I installed the cm12.1 and tried to run system update which downloaded the cm13 rom and flashed it in twrp ending with same bootloop. I dont really know how devs could make this working on their phones at all.

Well, I took my 12.1 installation without any wipe, went to CM recovery from 12.1, installed my (self compiled at that time) build + opengapps (it's important to install those before booting M for the first time), booted, done. I don't have any /system mods though.
I guess I'll try the nightly and see what happens there. Did anybody of you get a logcat of the failed boot attempts?

Just follow this quide with flashing twrp, only instead of twrp flash the stock recovery image. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63189590&postcount=5 Sorry, there is only boot command, you should type "fastboot flash recovery stock.recovery.img" - when "stock.recovery.img" is a filename of your stock recovery downloaded on your computer.
No need for wipe when installing recovery. I recon to install stock recovery and then install stock ColorOS from it, let it boot, install twrp later and do what you want then.
Looks like it's broken for everyone. I tried multiple recoverys, full wipes including /system and no joy. Guess we'll just have to wait!
