I have flashed many 4.3 Roms and can not get any of them to boot. I have followed all install instructions but can't get past gs3 screen. Any ideas?

im having a similar problem to yours..i mean after i do a fresh install+gapps it works..but after i go back to recovery and install my other files it wont go past the gs3 logo no idea why.
Yep frustrating any other ROM is OK just 4.3 not working, sucks.

I've flashed every 4.3 and all booted. Try just flashing ROM first. Let sit a few minutes then flash gapps. I also use the eclipse ROM gapps for all. No issues.

I also have the same problem when I try to reboot on 4.3 Roms. First boot up is fine. But when I go into to recovery it won't boot back up unless I reflash the ROM from the start. If someone tries flashing ROM and gapps separately let us know if it fixes it.

Tried eclipse ROM and apps. No different. Initial boot works and ROM runs fine but reboot freezes up on gs3 screen. What is getting scrambled and is there a way to fix this.

I've never had this issue. What I've done/used to flash all 4.3 roms was use the super wipe tool found in the general section(the one that wipes data, system and caches only) and then run it once and flash Rom+ gapps as instructed. I use twrp as well. Also, perhaps it's a stock 4.3 kernel and maybe flash a kernel straight after you flash the rom and gapps. Rom> gapps>kernel . Hope it helps

I used ez recovery from the play store and used cwm touch recovery and I no longer have the reboot issues. Even if you're using cwm, I would just download ez recovery and try it.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
Use ez recovery to flash the ROM or install cwm and then flash through that?

I had a similar problem when I first tried 4.2 but I've found two ways that have always worked for me
Full wipe (I wipe everything 3 times, but I'm sure that's overkill)
Flash rom
Flash gapps
Reboot
If it gets stuck on any screen wipe the cache and dalvik cache
Reboot
The other method I've only used with Dirty Unicorns
Full wipe
Flash rom
Reboot
Once the rom reboots, reboot back into recovery
Flash gapps
Reboot
Wait 10 minutes
You can either reboot again or just use as is
But if nothing is working you can odin back to stock
Then use this tool to root, unlock the bootloader, and flash the custom recovery of your choice http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2332825 (it even works on a mac)
(This is what I always use to root, unlock the bootloader, and flash recovery whenever I have to flash back to stock)
After I do that I always reboot and use Rom Manager to flash the latest recovery before flashing anything else.
These 2 roms have been 100% stable for me
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2484256 (4.3.1)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2469789 (4.3 I've never tried the weeklies just the lastest stable build)
Hope it helps
It seems that most ROMs will boot up fine with the latest TWRP recovery. But there are a few that will only boot up with CWM. So download both recoveries and flash them using ez recovery when one of them isn't working.
So, I usually stick with TWRP 2.6 as my default. The great thing about ez is that it includes cwm in it. First off I'd make sure you're running the latest recovery available. Then if that doesn't work restore your backup, hopefully you made one, and flash cwm and try reflashing the ROM. Assuming you're wiping everything at least 3 times and flashing the correct ROM with the correct gapps, there's no reason why it shouldn't work. And another thing. It's never a good idea to restore data from any app, ever. Trust me, I know.

You do realize that the recoveries built into ez recovery are over a year old. I wouldn't flash those under any circumstances. Only use ez recovery to flash from the custom slot.

So I tried installing/updating xposedbridge.jar and app_process but only xposed.jar will become active. I rebooted and everything. Installation is classical. This is my first HTC device that I'm rooting, so forgive me.
Also unrelated- TB keeps saying my sd card doesn't have enough free space but it clearly does, whenever I try to backup. Could this be the temp root?

I was having problems. After getting S-off and installing CWM recovery. I switched Installation type to Recovery zip and flashed the zip in recovery...and is now working just fine.
I don't have s-off yet and I'm going to wait on it for a bit

You need to uninstall Xposed first, before upgrading. Refer to http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/info-nexus-5-ota-help-desk-t2523217
Just download the full rooted stock ROM in android development and flash it without wipe from recovery.
It's actually fewer steps anyway.
OTA = revert system changes, boot recovery, flash, re-flash recovery, re-root
Rooted stock = boot recovery, flash
No brainer really. Flashing an OTA if rooted is a fool's errand

Nope. It's just flashing an entire, rooted ROM. You will have to install the Xposed framework again but the Xposed installer, all Xposed modules and all their data will remain intact

you make a backup in recovery, then dirty flash, dont wipe a single thing, 444 over it. if alls well after, then perfect. if you have issues, you have that backup in recovery to restore

Unfortunately my clairvoyant skills aren't working today
perhaps you could elaborate on the following 2 things
1) what zip are you flashing?
2) what error are you getting?

The pop up I get every 3 days for me to update my device to 4.4.3 I believe.. It's located in twrp under cache... When I try flashing it says error in red lettering ... Also I tried Uninstalling Xposed but seems not to change anything

Don't use OTA updates. Just manually flash a rooted stock ROM via TWRP.
Click the link in my signature and go to the "resources" section. You'll find a full rooted, PURE STOCK 4.4.4 rom there.
Copy it to your /sdcard, take a FULL nandroid backup then flash the ROM.

if the dirty flash is successful, you wont lose a thing, except time. if you have to go back and wipe, you will lose your data. so, make a backup in recovery first, before the dirty flash.
I wanted to switch back to stock Rom, I flashed it with fastboot (I downloaded 4.4.4)
I installed Root and XPosed, but I uninstalled XPosed again, Android wanted to update to 4.4.2 (settings said i have 4.4), but I got an error, Installed twrp and tried it manully, i got an error (i think it was error excecuting binary...)

Yes it is. You returned to stock then modified it so it is no longer stock. You cannot update unless you're still stock, but you're not. So flash latest stock.

I used CWM recovery to install it and then i got a more specific error (/system/framework/core.odex contains..., so it is xposed)Should I reflash the system.img, and does this wipe data?

If you use the flash all method in the link above it will wipe your data. If you fastboot flash system.img only then nothing gets wiped

OK whatever. You asked if it wiped data, which insinuates that you don't quite know enough.
Anyway, whatever, you know where the guides and info threads are now. Every question you've asked is covered there so please read them before posting threads
Thanks.

I read many Website and I only read that flashing all images will wipe everything, I already thought that it will only wipe /system, but I wanted to be sure, losing data isnt funny
Nope. Its not funny. But at the same time, all covered I'm the sticky threads.
