Hello I have a SM-P900 on which i installed TWRP recovery and rooted using the chainfire method.
After installing all of my apps and rebooting my tablet refuses to accept input from anything other than the s pen's input. Even the capacitive back and recent apps buttons only accept the s-pen everything works normally except for that. I have restored using my recoverys twice wiped the device reinstalled the recovery and still nothing. Any Ideas????
Install FolderMount from the PlayStore and run the app to detect if there's an issue with one of your partitions. I've never heard of this particular issue after installing TWRP, but every new TWRP install I've done has left me unable to write to certain partitions. Give it a try.

I tried this and even after FolderMount fixed the errors and i restored and only the pen worked.
I should also mention that even in TWRP only pen input is accepted.
I am also unable to instal Xposed.
Try doing a factory reset and don't do a restore, to see if the problem persists. If touch is still not working you may need to download your firmware from sammobile and reflash via Odin.

So I went through the instructions of getting root on the ICS leak and got some weird results. I flashed the superuser file once and got an error. I ran it a second time after reboot and made it further but still didn't complete. I ran it a third time without reboot and it completed and seems to be working.
What could have caused me to have to flash it 3 times in order for it to take? There shouldn't be any issues now that its there and working but my curiosity is peaked as to why it did it. Any thoughts?

From reading other posts that's not a unique experience. Not sure why it happens though.
that's just how it works; i had to flash twice, well once then fix permissions, then a second time and it worked.

I left that part out, after the initial try it didn't take I ran fix permissions, rebooted then flashed again with no luck. The third time was the charm though. So nobody that has experienced this has had any troubles with it? Its basically just a weird bug that crawled out from under the table just to disappear when you came back with something to kill it with... Damn things...
I had the same issue .

I used the same process to root and mine reboots and powers off fine.
I also had the failed install flashing Superuser.. ended up moving it to the internal storage and I didn't have it happen after that. Not sure if its just coincidence or not.
Everything else seems to be working great, Rom Manager just won't fix permissions. Having no button or force close issues.
System won't mount r/w in root explorer. Anybody else having this problem?

Nope, using ES File Explorer I turned on Up To Root, Root Explorer, and Mount system as writable and was able to create a file and delete it.
I've always had to flash the su zip numerous times before it took. Don't reboot recovery just keep trying. Ide say there is nothing to worry about since its happened from day one and I've never had any problems before. Still don't have any issues :thumbup:

These are the issues I'm currently having.
I ODIN'd ICS and CWM. Installed SU (3x) and Rom Mngr.
I no longer have Home button functionality, though I did on and off after flashing ICS.
Rom Mngr. throws errors when attempting to Fix Permissions and it won't.
Rom Mngr. throws erros about the Internet, messaging, etc has stopped working when first attempting to accomplish a task.
The Power menu consist only of Power Off & Restart. Restart freezes and requires a battery pull.
Factory Reset also freezes.
EDIT: After installing CWM via ODIN and then ROM Mngr., it wouldn't recognize that CWM was installed and prompted me to install it.
Hi guys,
since a few weeks I have problems with the performance of my HTC One XL running, Venom XL 3.2.8. The CPU load is often on 100%, for both cores, only after a restart, it works better.
Another problem is the pulldown shortcut bar, sometimes I can see it, sometimes it is disappeared and I have no idea how to get it back, after some time I can see it again. I have not changed anything in the settings.
I also have problems with the connection with mobile internet, errors and connection breakups.
Has anyone else also these problems or has an idea how to solve it? I am very satisfied with this ROM, very good work, but only these problems are going on my nerves^^
Thanks for your help.

download and flash 2.6
then
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot bootloader
select recovery from bootloader
in TWRP, select wipe, then advanced
Select everything except SDcard
If you haven't checked the md5 prior to flashing, make sure to check the MD5 of your rom with an md5checker on your PC
Copy the rom over and reflash.
Should work fine after.

If i will do this: how about all the apps and settings? is it like wipe? Because I don't want to install and setup everything new. Sorry about the stupid question^^
You can backup apps but not system apps or system settings.
Sent from my One X using xda app-developers app
Well yeah the reason he's asking you to download a different recovery is so you can do a full wipe and start fresh. You'll need to full wipe and flash your ROM again.
Because TWRP 2.5 has issues with wiping and flashing, that's probably why you're experiencing the problems you have now.
Just use Titanium Backup to backup your apps.

ok thanks guys for your help, I will try it when I am back in germany, otherwise I will have problems to register my whatsapp account overseas.
Flashed OmniRom 4.4.2 and it works great! Only problem is I have no root access!? SuperSU is installed as a system app but none of my root apps will work and Binary updates fail whether it is the Normal install or TWRP/CWM option. If I choose the latter it just closes the window and does not reboot, and if I use manual RCK after choosing it there is nothing that it does. I don't see anything on how to get root back and I don't want to have to reflash everything all over again

I had the same problem with the 4.3 version of OmniRom. Posted on the dev's forum for the Rom and after about 2 weeks, I still haven't heard anything about a possible fix. Tried to go back to stock and start all over but bricked the whole thing. Thank God for having done Wheelie/NVFlash or this tablet would again be lost until I'm able to buy a new motherboard. As for now for you, until the dev answers either of us, your only option (to have root access and the apps that you use with it) would be to flash a diffferent ROM. Wish I had a better answer for you. I do have one question for you though. What was your opinion of the Google Now Launcher in 4.4 in regards to the 10" tablet screen? I had the 4.4 OmniRom installed on my TF300T very soon after the Rom arrived and frankly, the size of the icons and all was a bit too large for my tastes. Until/unless Google adds a few more functionality options like my favorite launcher Nova (like being able to change the grid size for the desktop), I'm staying away from 4.4 on my TF300T (didn't really see much difference speed-wise and ART actually slowed my tab down so much that I flashed back to 4.3).
Did you download the SuperSU ZIP from the website and flash it using recovery?

Hi everyone,
I've been having some issues and have spent a couple hours trying to solve them myself. I've just attempted to unlock my bootloader, root my phone, and flash it with the latest version of Chroma for Nexus 4. Here is the developers thread for reference: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/development/rom-chroma-03-31-2015-layers-t3069936
My troubles are:
The 'home' soft key does not work
notifications do not work
none of my google accounts will sync - no gmail, contacts, etc
the 'quick settings' drop down from the status bar does not show up
I have done what I believe is a clean flash (full factory reset, used TWRP). I installed the Banks GApps as recommended in the Chroma post. Once my phone booted into Chroma, I proceeded with what seemed like a perfectly setup. I then quickly found that my home key did not work and began to discover the other problems as well.
I would have posted in the ROM thread, but I'm not allowed to yet. I appreciate any help or advice that is provided! I'm going in to work tomorrow with this crippled phone and hope that I can get it working properly in the evening.
Thanks for the help!

I think so. I used the latest image from the TWRP Mako page. (Not allowed to link it)
How can I check if TWRP is happy? I haven't seen anything weird with it.
Fixed!
I've managed to resolve all my issues by wiping the entire phone (System, Caches, Internal storage, etc.) using TWRP and reflashing Chroma 11/11/2015. Instead of Banks GApps as suggested, I used tk-mini GApps. Everything seems to be puttering along smoothly now.
I suppose we can mark this as Solved?
I rooted my device and happily started debloating.
AOD (which I really do not need) also had to go, but it seems this is giving me issues with my lock screen. The issue being that there is no clock widget installed, causing me to have a lock screen only showing an ICE number. There is minimal and not being able to tell the time at a glance...
I tried re-installing, but it keeps force closing on me (cannot modify the settings, device freezes for short times). No permanent damage; but I cannot get it to work.
Tried clearing cache and data for AOD, of no avail.
Anyone know what I am missing in order to get it re-installed?
Thank you!

Still on stock ROM; had to use Odin just yesterday to fix an issue with the Play Store (same thing; issue, had to uninstall, continued force closes).
How can I flash the stock ROM (given it is 3,5 GB)? Put it on my SD card and flash with TWRP?
Thanks.
Just download the stock ROM zip for your device and carrier from sammobile and Flash using odin using download mode on your phone.
If you were rooted is simpler, just download a stock based ROM like SolDier's and flash it through TWRP.

How about installing AOD and then setting it as a system app with Magisk? There's a mod available to do that. Maybe it'll work then? Definitely worth a try before reflashing stock.
Also make sure you install a compatible version from APK Mirror. Most newer versions aren't compatible with the Galaxy S8. Go ahead and install 3.2.80.4 (that's the one I have installed on my phone right now).
Perhaps try installing that version and then try it out before going through the procedure of installing Magisk.
Hope that works for you.
see whether it disabled or no

This works almost! No continued forced closes; however the screen on action takes forever (in comparison to other actions on the S8),
I am just wondering how come the re-install does not work properly. Titanium removed the APK; I install another one.
Why is AOD acting weird?
