Hey guys,
I wanted to try out the ParanoidAndroid 3+ ROM for the Asus TF300T today but got stuck. I followed the instruction as stated here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2057596, and this is of course also where I got the ROM from. My setup: Asus TF300T on stock JB 4.2.1 TWRP 2.4.4.0 installed, this implying an unlocked bootloader. Now for the problem:
Installation of ROM and gapps went fine, or so I thought. Did factory reset before flashing and wiped cache & dalvik cache afterwards. Upon reboot system hung up on Asus/nVidia splash screen. Waited for a couple of minutes, no reaction. After a while I rebooted into recovery and reflashed ROM and gapps, this time I activated signature verification of the zip, which gave me a signature verification error. Needless to say that my tab didn't boot.
Anybody here got an idea or has experienced that issue? I would be grateful for some help.
Regards

So I tried to install Android Revolution HD 9.0 today, and after installation, I got stuck in a boot loop. Then I tried factory resets and cache partion wipes and multiple reinstalls and now it automatically boots into recovery.
Prior, I had a stock ROM, but it was rooted, but I was plagued with issuse such as random reboots and half the time on reboot, it would be stuck in a boot loop.
Can anyone help me out here?
I'm still fairly new to android modding beyond following instructions for installing CWM/Custom ROMs, so take that into consideration.
Factory reset or wipe phone in CWM and flash a new stock rom via Odin .

Done and done. Thanks for the help!
I've got a T-Mobile phone with stock updated to the last version, with TWRP 2.6.3.0 and root. Everything worked fine for a couple of months.
A month ago the phone started to boot loop with no apparent reason. I've wiped everything, re installed stock, rooted and used the phone again. I've thought it might be an app updated that screwed something.
Anyway, I've only got the basic apps on the phone and today it happened again. I've read that I need to boot into bootloader and selecr "CLEAR STORAGE", I've tried that but it goes into recovery and there I can only wipe the data. I've did that and rebooted and it didn't help.
Any other ways to fix this without re installing the rom?
I think that if you use the clear storage option, you will have to reinstall the rom. I believe it wipes the system partition as well.
If you want to do this, you should flash the stock recovery (get it here)
Go into the bootloader and select the clear storage option.
Then you can flash CWM or TWRP recovery again and install the ROM.

I believe that you have a bootloop... Can you tell us what is your bootloader version or firmware version? What is your TWRP version also? You may need to wipe your system to get it up and running again...
Thx LetMeKnow,
I'm using twrp 2.6.1.0. Bootloader number is 10.6.1.14.10-20130601.
When you tell about a wipe, full wipe with full install of the rom again? I will have to do a backup, data only is enough for apps installed?
thx

Your TWRP and firmware are good... I think that your data partition is corrupted and these are my suggestions..
1. In your TWRP, go to Advance and file manager, copy all your personal stuff to your external SD so you will not loose them when you format your data partition.
2. In your TWRP, do a nandroid backup of system, data, and boot
3. Try this first, Wipe everything except your system and your external SD and reboot...:fingers-crossed: If your device is up and running then it is telling you that you have a data partition corruption.. So your data backup from TWRP is useless..
4. If step 3 did not work, then your system is corrupted..You may want to do these.
--Format your data partition
--Wipe everything except your external SD
--Reinstall Cromi x and reboot so you a totally clean installion...
--Now you can restore your data backup and hope that it is not corrupted
--Good luck ....:fingers-crossed:

It's not a bootloop if he's stuck on the boot animation. If it keeps booting back - then yes, but getting stuck on the boot animation has happened to me numerous times (and always when I was on a Hund's kernel - sorry LMK, but Hund's just doesn't work on my tab), which a simple Factory Reset (the default option in the TWRP "Wipe" menu) took care of.
If that doesn't work, then yes - you will have to format data.

The only way to diagnose the cause of "stuck at boot animation" (i.e. to gain insight instead of trying random things involving data loss) is to read the logcat.
Hello guys
Thx for all these infos. Finallly, it was the data...
Just before your answers, I've tried a wipe of cache and dalwik cache. Android's apps updated, and stuck again on logo animation.
So I've tried to update to 5.2a, with no format of data, the same arrived.
I've reinstalled the 5.2a with full wipe, and now it's ok (I will have to do it again, some options unselected are finally necessary. I will go back on 5.1.2 one if no update of 5.2a in the week.)
How can the data be corrupted? I remember, I've had installed an apk from googleplay, this apk can be faulty?
Thx
I seem to be having the same issue with the same version of CROMI and TWRP 2.4.4.0 so I wiped the tablet and put the ROM on a microsd to reflash. For some reason, I'm not seeing the zip file in the file manager or the install option. Please help.

Try with a microsd formated in fat32, this should help.
TF700 with Chrimi-x 5.2a
Hi Guys,
First post. I installed Chromi x 5.2a to my TF700 and it was working great.
I was looking at the options and it said I was using the 4.1 JB theme but I could switch to 4.2 Theme of JB. I did, and when my tablet restarted, I get a black screen and a bunch of errors once in a while.
Is there a way I can change it back to 4.1? I can't access the OS only TWRP.
Thanks!

Weird. I would re-flash the rom. It installs to the 4.1 launcher by default - but something is off... That shouldn't have happened.
Did you clean install CROMi-X?
Hi, so short story is.
1. I had a backup of my stock rom that i did using twrp.
2. I flashed Franco Kernel for COS 13 downloaded from his website (https://kernels.franco-lnx.net/OnePlusOne/6.0.1/anyKernel/)
3. When i flashed i performed a Wipe dalvik cache from recovery
4. Reboted phone, and started optimizing apps but suddenly it rebooted.
5. Started optimizing apps but when it showed optimizing app 1 of 103 the phone keept restarting.
6. I decided to restore my backup made from TWRP, but then phone got stuck and restated everytime from the CYANOGENOS logo.
7. Since it was not booting, i decided to install from fastboot a clean CM13.
8. Flashed, finished and then the phone restarted, but heeey, again stuck in the CYANOGENOS Logo and restarting when the logo shows up.
9. I freak out and I don't know what to do.
So far:
fastboot is working
Cyanogen Recovery is Working ( tried the wipe from that, but still no luck)
When I plug the device directly to my PC, it shows "QHSUSB_BULK", but as i say: fastboot and COS recovery are working.
Can you guys help me, please
First of all, I let the phone charge till 100% on screen (yes, the charger indicator was working aswell)
Well, since my device was able to boot into both Recovery and Fastboot modes, I decided to flash a custom recovery one more time to replace the COS recovery. I flashed CWM 6 (because before TWRP was not helping) and performed a "backup" of the whole rom, just to see if it worked, and it did. After that, i wiped /factory reset from CWM.
Rebooted the device, and voilá I guess. The phone was able to boot into CM 13, now I'm happy to see that I was able to recover from this issue.
Still have no clue about why the FrancoKernel ended in a bootloop. Was the cache wiping a bad idea ?

Yes,that's where it all went wrong.You should never wipe anything while flashing a custom kernel.
