hi all,
Ok, I'm new to this stuff.
1. used the simple root and it worked great.
2. I then flashed CM7 and it worked great except market was not on it.
3. I downloaded and flashed gapps-hdpi-20101114-signed.zip by mistake, not realizing I had to use another gapps.
4. After I flashed it, the cm7 and android setup screens kept cycling between each other.
5. I restored to clockworkmod (sp) and then deleted the gapps and tried to then flash cm7. It didn't cycle between cm7 and android setup, but the cm7 screens kept cycling and never got past that.
6. I thought perhaps it was just cm7 now, so I tried miui and it's doing the same thing. It's cycling between the gingerbread man and MIUI with the status bar and won't do anything else.
Very frustrated. what have I done and how do I fix it?
Thanks folks,
Brett
I believe that those ROMs both require ENG S-OFF. Open simple root on your computer, click Fixes, then apply the fix there. Also, did you make sure you cleared your Dalvik cache before flashing? Always do a factory reset AND clear dalvik cache when changing ROMs.
make sure you have wifi off in your first boot

what method do you use to flash cm7? what exactly do you do.
to clarify what is your exact process for flashing the rom?

Hi. Thanks.
I use rom manager to boot to recovery. Then I install zip from sd card. I go through the process until it says reboot. It's when I reboot that I get stuck in the bootloop. It just cycles from the CM7 circular arrow to blank and then to the arrow thing again. MIUI does the same between the gingerbread guy and the status bar and back.
I then take the battery out, take out the sdcard, down volume & power, reinsert sdcard and do a restore so I can use my phone again in clockworkmod 3.0.0.6.
thanks,
brett
sounds like your forgetting to do a full wipe/factory reset, wipe cache, and wipe dalvik..

actually, I did that.
it's weird. I restored a few times, did the above you suggested, and still in a loop. The first time I installed CM7 it was great, then the gapps thing seems to have screwed it up.
I'm lost.

Probably a silly question but you're doing full reinstalls, right? Not using a nandroid backup? I can't think of any reason that you should be boot looping permanently from flashing the gapps if you're going into clockwork, doing a factory reset, wiping the cache, then wiping the Dalvik cache, then flashing the ROM.

hmm. I'm a little new to this, but I'm using the backup/restore option in recovery mode and am then flashing one of the backups. Could that be the problem?
If it is, how do I do a full reinstall?

Without a full wipe I thought it would just bootloop?
Do a full wipe then reinstall cm7 and gapps.

That's your problem right there. If you make a backup of a busted ROM, its still going to be busted when you restore it.
Do the factory reset, then clear the cache again just to make sure, go to advanced and clear Dalvik, then go to the main menu and use the choose install zip from sdcard option, then choose "choose zip from sdcard", find the ROM zip file and select it, then say yes to the flash and reboot when its done. If you are flashing CM7, make sure that you flash the correct gapps package after you flash the ROM or the ROM won't be very useful.

I'll give it a shot and then get back to you.
I do believe, however, that the restore I'm doing is the backup I did right before I did the original cm7 flash. I'll try.
thanks!
If you toggle wifi on after the first boot it goes into a bootloop. This is a know bug not a hunch.

Hello Pros! First post, semi-noob here.
I tried flashing the newest [JB][CM10Based]Unoffical MIUI 2.9.14 Skyrocket 9/14/12[PORT] today. I followed all instructions; I wiped wiped wiped, factory and Dalvik, and flashed the kernel.
But I am always stuck on the MIUI bootscreen, and can never fully load up the ROM. I've tried wiping and re-flashing several times, to no avail. I have not had any problems flashing roms before this. Any help or ideas of what causes this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks so much!

Try reflashing. But when u get into recovery go to extras/darkside tool. And click on the super wipe(idr what's its called but there's only two options.) When that's done factory reset format data/system 3x if u want.( Couldn't hurt) then flash ROM! All should be good... if not keep this thread open. Lol and well try something else. But hopefully that works. Good luck!

Really? Damn. Are u on the latest recovery? If not try flashing the newest. Then do the steps again in my last post. Can't believe your having all these troubles!
Oh also u could try fixing permissions. After doing all the wipes and after flashing. Go to dark side tools again and do the cashe wipe! Then go back to advanced and fix permissions again.
Can you boot into recovery or not? If you can, just flash the rom. If you can't, yank the battery, replace it. Then, hold down both volume buttons, the press the power button, release all the buttons, you should be able to get into recovery.

Wow, still stuck on the boot screen even after the darkside cache wipe. I flashed CWMR Touch v6.0.1.3 by sk8erwitskil which is the newest CWM recovery as far as I believe, and the recommended recovery for this ROM. I EVEN flashed TWRP 2.2 just for the heck of it and flashed MIUI with that and still the same result; stuck on bootscreen. So I'm pretty sure it's not the recovery.
I did a darkside superwipe, and a darkside cache wipe, along with factory reset & format data/system 3x. The rom installs in recovery just fine. It's just once i reboot, i get the MIUI splash loading screen indefinitely. I'm not sure what could be causing this since I do all the important wipes (plus the darkside wipes now) each time. I think I have BAD LUCK!
You'll have to use odin, and reroot your phone.
Have you checked the MD5 of the ROM? If it's a bad DL it could flash just enough of it to loop you.

I had the same problem, but while my phone was stuck on the MIUI boot screen i pulled the batter, got into recovery again and simply did a factory data reset just once and then it booted up, but my issue is that i get no data at all no mater what version of MIUI I try to flash.

Ya I agree try downloading it again. Check the md5 and flash that ROM again. If it doesn't work your gonna have to Odin!
There were a lot of complaints of boot loops when flashing, so I pulled the DL link. I actually stopped using miui and moved back to CM or AOKP, depending on which one is most stable at the moment. Every once in a while I give miui a try, but I never stick with it. If you want miui, I suggest you follow Lithium's thread. His version is the officially supported miui rom.
I can confirm heres what i did to fix i had the boot loop.. all i did was run DARKSIDE Superwipe x2 Times. Then i installed MIUI Rom. Then i Factory Reset. Try booting wait a little bit. If still not going threw remove battery and boot to recovery and factory reset one more time then reboot. So once again.
1. DARKSIDE SUPERWIPE x2++ 2. Install MIUI Rom. 3. Factory Reset. 4. Boot. 5. (If still looping) Remove battery Then recovery. and Factory Reset and boot again. Your welcome
Can we move this to q and a?

Hi all...
I tried to upgrade by Tab 2 7" to KitKat today and failed. I installed Clockworkmod successfully, but then started getting error 7's. I discovered this was because it was outdated. I've tried to install updated clockwork mod which it says has been successful - but doesn't change the original.
I did a backup of my original rom, but this has failed to reinstall. I've tried to put an old version of cyanogen on it, which also has failed, and re-downloaded the stock rom from samsfirmware which passes through ODIN, resets but then the tab 2 hangs on the Samsung screen - flashing.
I can't seem to resolve it.
Has anyone got any ideas? I can't access anything other than clockworkmod - so if you think you know of a way I can successfully upgrade it I may stand half a chance.....
Thanks

Use Odin to restore to the stock ROM. Download the stock rom from samfirmware.com and flash it in Odin as PDA. Then, use the latest recovery (either TWRP, CWM, OR PhilZ) from @Android-Andi's recovery thread in the Dev section. You should now be able to flash any ROM you want to. Make sure you do a backup and a wipe system, cache, Dalvik, data, and android secure (if it's an option.)

What I've done tonight is reflashed the original Rom - this time it blew away Clockworkmod. It still wouldn't boot. I then put a recovery solution on from your link, which has flashed well. However I've then tried three ROMS and each have hung after installation on the initial boot.
I'll try them again tomorrow night - but do you have any idea why three ROMS plus the stock keep failing?

Did you wipe system, cache, Dalvik cache, and data before flashing and wipe cache and dalvik after flashing? And your tablet will bootloop after a reinstallation in Odin because Odin does not wipe before installation. After flashing in Odin, reboot recovery (make sure tablet is unplugged,) and wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache. Reboot and you should be good to go.

Thanks for all your help,especially rcj! I have managed to recover my device using cynagodmod 9 - it wont run 10 or 11 but at least its up and working - even if it's a downgrade from the Android version I was on Really don't care as I can use it again with a lot more memory.

Use latest Philz touch recovery. And use the rom and gapps compatible to your tab. Don't forget to reset to factory setting, clear cache and wipe dalvic cache before flashing the rom and gapps ☺

Hi guys!
I got a G3 yesterday and decided to root it. I installed TWRP and decided to install Cloudy G3.
Immediately on boot, all services stop responding. There's a loop of popups saying things like "System UI has stopped responding." The same with download manager and other things. So I figured the rom didn't install properly. I went to my backup to restore it and TWRP doesn't have it listed. I looked in all directories I could (saved it initially to /sdcard/) but it's not there. The weird part is that when you click the restore button going into the list of your backups, my backup pops up for like a quarter of a second and goes away.
I decided to use TWRP's wipe function to do a system restore. It completed and now my android version is "Cloudy g3 2.5." So... System restore installed the rom? I'm just really confused at all of this. Anybody have any insight to the stuff I've mentioned?

Did you use wipe before flashing the rom? If not that's Why you had the issue you didn't wipe. You MUST wipe when flashing a rom.

Did not know that, and no I didn't. But I appreciate you letting me know that, probably some volatile information I should've been aware of.
May I ask why the device fixed the CloudyG3 rom when I did wipe it? I thought wiping through TWRP sends the phone back to factory settings, but it just fixed the rom and booted fine.

It wiped your current install, current rom being cloudy it reset it to factory settings. Doing a wipe won't put you back to stock.

When you boot to TWRP, choose the "Wipe" option, on the next screen, choose "Advanced Wipe", then on the next screen, choose "system" and "data" partitions(do not choose any of the other partitions). Then slide the slider at the bottom to wipe, then tap the home button in TWRP and choose the "Install" option and flash your RIM like you normally would, then after it flashes, wipe cache and Dalvik/ART cache, after it wipes the caches, select reboot and you're done.

There is probably something wrong with your recovery. They flashing an older or newer version of TWRP for your model number, then try flashing a different ROM.
If your recovery was working correctly then the steps to wipe that I told you about should have wiped your system partition, if it had done that properly then you wouldn't have anything to boot to at this point if your new ROM didn't flash. Since you booted to the ROM you tried to wipe then it didn't wipe.
Also, make sure that you still have root before you flash another recovery, use the root checker app, if you don't have root, try flashing SuperSU.zip in TWRP, then try flashing the new ROM.

Try advanced wipe including everything. then flash stock rom or any official ones. If you got qualcomm device then use QFIL or Qualcomm Flash Tool
hi i just tried that and it didn't do anything, once again it says done but it didn't do anything, I think it may be the recovery as suggested by Droidriven. I am going to try and flash a different version of TWRP or maybe clockworkmod recovery , I will keep you updated. But do you guys have any suggestions to what may have caused this, Fulmics never worked for me.

It sounds to me like you flashed something that was not made for your model number. Find the correct stock firmware and flash that, then start over and find something different for your device this time.

quick story. I reinstalled of the same version (2.8) and the problem is still here, I am going to try to install a different version.
Sorry to keep posting but I tried a factory reset using TWRP and it says failed. Could that mean something.
Actually guys, IT says failed underneath for everything but in the console it shows no signs of failure.
SOrry guys for being a noob, this can now be shut down as i have fixed the problem by unchecking simulate actions.

How in the world did that setting get changed, it should have been set to what you needed by default.
