I selected all of these things to be installed with the SuperMan ROM, But they weren't installed when I got to the home screen after installing the ROM, I know it worked because I have edge on a regular S7. help please. Also sorry for the amount of things I have posted if you have seen any.

No I haven't tried that, but I am worried, as I went and installed Xposed, I feel as if I should back up and wipe but I can't do either of those things it always says it fails through TWRP.

Hi mate
1 what errors you get and when , flashing xposed , what xposed file did you use?
2 TWRP is working ok? can you flash with it, did you wipe data during its installation?
1 of these 2 messages appear
1) failed to mount storage (appeared while wiping once and anotherwhilst installing rom.
2) /data failed (something) along these lines while wiping device
I wasn't ableto wipe device it wont let me no matter what.
Even tried when installed stock rom through smartswitch and still had all my stuff.
TWRP works fine and I will check what file I used when I get home in a few hours.

So my cousin had the this tablet she hadn't us for a while and she asked to to fix it up. Root it put some apps on it blah blah blah. So i rooted it using this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1681155/
Everything was fine and it went smoothly, I had root access, TWRP recovery that it came with and it was working fine.
I wanted to put a ROM on it for my cousin to match her phone so I found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2584265
So, I flashed the Rom and it was fine. Then I flashed the Gapps and it said that the system partion didn't have enough space.
Here is where I screwed up (I think). TWRP said that I lost root access and i had to fix it BUT i had to swipe a bar at the bottom to fix it. My dumbass pressed the button in the middle of the screen which was to ignore it. I didn't see what i was doing and i messed up
So I lost root or something and when i turn on the device and try to boot into recovery by holding the Power + Vol Down keys it does not work!
Now I have a tablet with android 4.4.3, no Gapps, no root, no recovery. I have tried to factory reset it but the one in settings do not work.
I'm stuck and I need help from someone smarter. Thank you for anything.
Id start again, sounds like something in recovery got messed up if it thinks the system partition is not big enough for gapps

ok i figured out the easyflasher and i get the recovery but, when im done flashing all the files and boot the device it says that i have to repair root, like before and even if i say to do so i lose the recovery every time meaning i have to go and put the recovery back onto it and do everything again.....
alrighty so ive got the recovery to stick, and i got the KitKatKiss rom which is actually really nice, however i don't have root, i keep trying to flash the supersu file but it does not work. thanks for everything already. it would be nice to have it rooted.......

KatKiss is already rooted by default, you should not flash an additionnal supersu zip.
Just Flash the rom then gapps from the KatKiss thread
wipe cache + dalvik-cache
then reboot.
If you're coming from another rom version, a full wipe / factory reset is recommended before flashing too.

Hello, i rooted my phone today using the http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3269447 post.
After i did this i tried installing the xposed framework. I downloaded a bunch of different ones and they didn't work so i pressed wipe cache/dalvik and then when i rebooted it, it just shows the first boot screen, just the white one. And it just stays there.
I can still enter recovery and boot loader. Can someone please help me with this?
do you have twrp 2.8 or 3 installed?
3 has issues with wipes and partitions... did you let it finish or did you stop it in middle of wipe (3.0 takes FOREVER, and if you stop it, it corrupts partitions)
so 1st step is install twrp 2.8 if you are using 3+... use this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/pure-xl/development/twrp-twrp-blu-pure-xl-allview-x2-xtreme-t3269596
then load this nandroid:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/pure-xl/general/rom-blu-pure-xl-stock-rom-t3382722
if that doesnt work...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/pure-xl/help/guide-unbrick-softbricked-blu-pure-xl-t3371981
sp flash is the hardcore fix it no matter what factory new route... read THE WHOLE thread if the BLU nandroid doen't fix it for you...
Also as far as Xposed goes, you'll want the latest SDK 22 version that's ARM64. I don't usually clear cache after I install Xposed, works fine.
@tbirdguy Hey man long time no see. There's a flaw in your response... Lol jk
Thanks for the help but I fixed it I just flashed the boot recovery and system part of the allure rom. And after that it still didn't work so I flashed the whole rom. Now it works fine

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.

hi, that didn't work, it says it has done but then it boots straight back up into fulmics. Any other ideas.

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.

I never faced this issue before, I had installed roms before and was able to flash a new rom , so could the recovery really be the issue.

Just try another recovery and eliminate that possibility, you're not gonna cause any issues with the new recovery unless you use the wrong one.

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.

Hey all
I've got a weird problem... I've been having some trouble with Viper4Android FX stopping working (sometimes fixed with a reboot). I installed it through Magisk so decided I'd uninstall it and try flashing it through TWRP. I uninstalled and restarted (back to system) but after taking quite some time booting it failed and rebooted back into TWRP...
I've reflashed the stock boot image, then TWRP. I've tried reflashing Viper4Android Via TWRP, as well as Magisk and the kernel I was using (CleanSlate)…
Yet still it tries to boot into system and the animation continues for a while until it fails and reboots into TWRP...
I'm prefer not to loose all my data because TWRP backups never seem to restore properly. I always get a tarFork(255) error or something like that which I've never managed to solve...
Any ideas what's going on here?
Thanks!
Im using the ViPER4Android FX v1.6.9 (2.3.4.0) by viper520, zhuhang, ahrion & zackptg5. works perfectly for me, installed using magisk. btw what viper u r flashed using twrp ? is it from the magisk module ? or just a regular viper zip ?

I was using 1.6.9 (2.5.0.5) originally as a magisk module - that was the one I uninstalled which started the problem. I just found that the zip I used in Magisk manager was on my internal storage so I tried instillaing 2.3.4.0 and then 2.5.05 again but unfortunately neither of those has solved the issue - I still can't boot into system
I'm wondering how uninstalling a magisk module could possibly soft-brick a phone

Well , thats a bit strange. Have you tried reflashing tthe rom ? if i was u , i'm just gonna wipe my entire system , and fresh installed rom. and start everything from 0 again . if u worried wiping the system, well it's just an app, u can re download it again. + u get fresh install rom and a viper that works perfectly. at least the internall data still safe.

Hmmmm unfortunately that looks like it might be the case.. I'm always reluctant about reflashing roms. That means that system partition gets wiped right? does that mean I end up loosing all my settings and any system apps?
Yes, unfortunately.
But you can restore the phone settings after you first sign in on the phone . Something that says "set up as new" and i forgot the other options. but basically it will restore all the settings (ex: screen time out , wifi password etc) , contacts , and much more. As long as u didn't wipe the Internal Storage , ur photo , music etc is still safe.
Some quick tips , before u messing around with the system (magisk, flashing mods etc) , u can backup the system only. and if something goes wrong , u can just restore the system , not the whole rom.

Before you start over again, try flashing OOS. Make sure you use the full system version, not the smaller OTA. You'll have to reroot afterward. You might try uninstalling Magisk before that, by flashing the uninstaller, and seeing if that takes care of things. These options would save you from having to wipe things completely and reinstall everything.
If you flash OOS, it's best to flash it, flash TWRP (use the blu_spark version), reboot to recovery, then flash OOS again, reflash TWRP, then boot into system to see if you're live again. Then, flash Magisk. Flashing the operating system twice is a way to get it on both A and B slots.
There are plenty of detailed instructions here on flashing ROMs.
The 255 error on Nandroid backups is related to multiple user accounts, even if you don't have them. Lots of us have run into this problem. There are a couple of threads on XDA about this. Here's one of them.
