[Q] Problem that happened using Multirom, now i have an unusable phone - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I had the latest version of CM11 on my Opo 64 GB, was also using Multirom and Miui 4.10.24.
Tried to install the 4.10.31 version, but i did it wrong (i did not go into TWRP, then Multirom, add zip and install, but i just selected install rom and flashed the 4.10.31 zip file).
Now, the main CM11 OS is lost, i cannot boot into it, and i cannot also boot into MIUI.
So, how can i get my CM11 back?
I tried flashing the official version but it gives me error while trying to install it through TWRP.
Also if i reboot the phone and try to choose the MIUI it says
"error, kexec-hardboot support is required to boot this rom.
install kernel with kexec-hardboot support to your internal rom.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I'm probably not understanding, but can you boot from off , into recovery then > TWRP?

Yes I can, managed to install MIUI only, latest version.
I also installed Multirom again (on MIUI) and it downloaded cm11s kernel).

Ok managed to go back to my old miui os, now I have 2 miui os and no cm11, also downloaded the Franco kernel 30. How can i check if the cm11 that i had before is still there, if not how can i install it again without screwing my already working miui?
update:
After some tests, this is what's happening.
I believe I have no CM11S on my phone, that is gone!
I have the MIUI V5 running, but when i flash the franco kernel, the phone is stuck on boot (1+1 logo), i have to flash the kernel_kexec_bacon_cm11s to make it boot in MIUI (working).
So, now i have a working rom that works through Mutlirom and I cannot flash a working CM11S rom on the phone.
Any help would be great guys!

[Q] No more Operating System on device

Then when i try to install Slimrom or CM installer to flash and install a new OS but i getting an error 7 - unverified file so i cannot put any Os back on the device
Can anyone help?
Sounds like you flashed the wrong recovery, possible that you installed the p3100 recovery.
Try reflashing the recovery.

Flashing KK ROMs on outdated recovery will get you a status 7 error. Grab the latest (I'd go with TWRP as CWM support will be ending soon) version from here...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2548257 update to the latest one you like (CWM is 6.0.5.0) Load up a ROM and give it a go. I put all my ROMs on an external card to be safe. Maybe do that and then just install from such.
p,s. CM installer never works, I dont think our tabs are compatible with it. At least I've never got it to work.But, you dont need it anyways.

[Q] Can't Install Slimkat : Status Error 7

Hi Buddy!
Greetings from a new guy here
Just basic question, few days back I'm trying to Install Slimkat ROM, I've done few steps below :
- Wipe data factory reset
- Wipe chache
- Wipe dalvik
- Format system
- Flash zip from Internal SD Card
But I'm getting status error 7 on installation proccess
I'm trying to Install another ROM (CM 10.3 Official & CM 12 Unofficial) its working just fine
Why I couldn't install Slimkat on my device?
Because you are using an out dated recovery, you need at least cwm 6.0.4.4 because KitKat requires selinux support and older recovery doesn't support it, get it from general section of tab 2 and flash it using existing recovery
Hope it works

Thanks! Its working now
But just wondering, I previously using CWM 6.0.2.8 but I can even install CWM 12 which lolipop based
Why it doesnt work on slimkat which based on kitkat? Kitkat is even lower than lolipop

If you read what I typed carefully, KitKat uses selinux, lollipop doesn't,
So you can use any recovery made for your device to flash a lollipop based ROM,
But anyways people are getting trim bug that causes infinite Boot loop without any reason, that's why our supper hero Andi protects us with patches that prevent those things.

Marshmallow OTA Update - Update Cyanogen Recovery?

Hi, today I received Marshmallow OTA update (13.0-ZNH0EAS2JK, not yet installed), this is a great news but I also get a popup window says :
WARNING : Update Cyanogen recovery is disabled. This may cause issues with updating your device.
Please enable Update Cyanogen recovery in Developer options
Ignore / OK
1. Should I ignore the message or I have to enable Update Cyanogen recovery?
2. Right now I use TWRP, will the cyanogen recovery override the TWRP or not?
3. Just to make sure, upgrading to Marshmallow doesn't delete data and apps, right?
Btw right now I'm on CM 12.1.1-YOG7DAS2K1 (Lollipop) rooted.
this will not affect the update but your device may well not allow the update unless you re-flash CM recovery first then after updating again re-flash TWRP
For ota you should be in stock recovery not in twrP and stock rom ,Enable update cm recovery in developer's options.no data loss .
So before installing update, I need to re-flash CM Recovery or just enable it from Developer Options?

Toggle on the "update cyanogen recovery" from Developer menu and flash the stock recovery.
You probably need to flash the stock ROM too which includes the stock recovery.
When i switched from cm12.1 with twrp to cm13, just flashing the stock recovery didnt work for me, I had to flash the stock cm12.1 ROM

Need uregent help!!! Miui 8 , bootloop !!!!! How to install custom rom with miui 8

I wanted to install cutom rom in my Mi4i working on MIUI 8, so I installed TWRP from toolkit , which also installed SuperSU.But I don't know if my bootloader was unlocked or not?
I saw in a youtube video to flash MIUI 6 first to install Custom rom or you might endup in BOOTLOOP.
In TWRP I wiped Dalvik,Data,Cache,System.
Went to INSTALL, tried installing MIUI6 but that package failed to install. Giving error unable to mount.
I tried custom rom crDroid and it installed but when I restarted I WAS STUCK IN BOOTLOOP.
After a heartattack I finally flashed MIUI8 with MiFLASHER using fastboot image of MIUI 8.
SO, I want to ask IS THERE A WAY TO INSTALL CUSTOM ROM ,IF I AM ON MIUI 8????
And that bootloop was caused beacuse I didn't unlock bootloader when I installed crDroid???
Thanx in advance. Please somebody help???

I would suggest you to install Resurrection Remix as it is based on miui8 firmware.
You were stuck in bootloop because crDroid was based on miui6 firmware and probably your installation of the same was failed ( Like you're saying )
Since you get "Heart Attack", Prefer clean install.
Wipe system, data, cache, dalvik cache.
Flash Rom, gapps,
Reboot to system.
Note:- To install custom ROMs based on miui6 firmware, first of all, flash the provided firmware in the thread instead of flashing the whole miui6.
Ask further if it doesn't work.
Hit thanks if helped.

Why twrp is reinstall every time after custom rom installed?

When custom rom installed twrp reinstall
every time install custom rom
Why ?
Sorry for bad english....
"Go to install and browse to the zip and install the zip. The zip will install TWRP on boot partition of both slots."
I copied this from the installation guide on twrp.me for the Moto G7 Power. TWRP is installed on your boot partition. Flashing a new boot.img removes TWRP... and a custom ROM contains a boot.img...

Lineage based ROMs come with a specialized recovery now. After they are flashed TWRP recovery gets overwritten by the recovery built into the ROM. Before PIE based ROMs this wasn't an issue. I could go further but I won't.

The whole boot gets overwritten by the new boot.img, that's all. It doesn't depend on your ROM. There is no other way for a A/B device.
