[Q] First boot taking forever .

Hi ,guys .
So my problem is the first boot (on my p3110 )takes an eternity , whatever I'm trying to flash it wouldn't succesfully have the first boot .
I've tried omni,slimkat and CM but nothing works .
Dumb I was ,in my blind tries, I've deleted my backups and now the only place i can flash is my microSD card.
Help please , I'm really stuck . :crying:

The first boot always takes longer as it is setting up, but no longer than ~5 minutes.
Anyway... If you've waited and it is boot looping, try these steps:
Make sure your recovery is up to date.
Wipe system, data, cache, and dalvik cache.
Flash ROM, gapps, and any addons
Wipe cache and dalvik
Reboot. After first reboot is complete and on setup screen, wait 5 minutes and reboot into recovery.
Wipe cache and dalvik again. Reboot
This reboot could also take ~5 minutes, but the others shouldn't as long as you don't wipe cache and dalvik.
You should see an "Android is Upgrading" screen. After this is done, complete setup and you should be good to go.

Back to stock rom for now, prepare (charge until full).
Re-root, then reboot to recovery to try again flashing the rom.
Always format /system, /cache, /data/media first when installing different roms. Good luck

Stock rom is working fine? Is root working on stock?
Did you get any errors while flashing costom roms?
I remember a folk here got a same problem as you, and i think it's not resolved yet..
Maybe you and him have a "special" devices.
Don't worry, it's not a problem with your ext-sd because i use it all the time. and if it was ext-sd problem, you'll get an error while flashing.
I suggest messages devs in developement section, maybe they can figure out what is wrong.
And of course i think it's not safe to restore others nandroid backup, so don't mind find it.
God speed, wish I can help you more :angel:

Sadly my stock rom is gone.
So yesterday when I've rerooted whit your link I've received two errors :
- SOKP and when I've flash it something like poped up : E:Cannot write to sd card clockworkmod recovery etc.
- CM 11 :
Root Access Possibly Lost Fix?
THIS CANNOT BE UNDONE
1. YES fix root (/system/xbin/su)
2. NO do not fix

Like I said earlier, you should have flashing stock rom first to remove root via odin/hemidall.. you can find it at sammobile,com
then re-root with link i gave earlier again via odin/hemidall, and format in recovery like i said earlier. no wonder you still fail..
you should have philz touch recovery instead cwm if you succeed.

Cyanogen Mod 6.0 for OPPO R7 PLUS

I apologize if this is posted, but we now have an official build of Marshmallow for our Oppo r7 Plus (F) Variant. link attachedhttp://download.cyanogenmod.org/?type=nightly&device=r7plus

Excellent! I am going to test it right now and will report!!!!
Update: I was on ColorOS, flashed cm13 recovery and done factory reset, formatting cache is taking around 8 minutes, is that normal?
Flashing ARM64 opengapps for 6.0 end up with error: E:Installation error in /sideload/package.zip (Status 255) - seems like recovery problem as many people report this issue. I only dont know if TWRP will work with CM13 rom

Personally I'm using a 12.1 recovery at the moment. The 13.0 recovery is still WIP AFAIK.
Gesendet von meinem R7plusf mit Tapatalk

Ok, will try cm12.1 recovery, what about gapps? Which one to use? Btw I have done factory reset again, flashed cm13 rom only, phone rebooted and loading apps (total of 87 I think), then done reboot, then only showing blue android logo for very long time, like 10 minutes followed with another "starting apps" screen with 21 left or so, now another reboot with blue android logo. Is this normal for MM roms? Still not finished.
EDIT: after another 5 minutes same screen appears with saying starting android... 21 apps left, blue android logo when done - seems to be as bootloop as it is going nowhere from here.
CM13 rom flashed fine over TWRP, flashing gaaps now seems to be alright as well (open_gapps-arm64-6.0-mini-20151218).

Very exited, good job

so far I am getting the boot-loop also. will wait to here what Nexus5-32GB will post (if any success with the cyanogen recovery) before reverting back

Sadly "Androis is starting... Starting apps" is last message I can see, the soft reboot then followed wit this bootloop. Same when flashed with and without gapps from TWRP, cm12.1 and cm13 recoveries.
When doing factory reset in CM12.1 recovery I get this:
-- Wiping data...
Formating /data...
E:Failed to start /data/data/org.cyanogenmod.audiofx
Formating /cache...

Guy's I got it to boot up and install so far everything seems to work okay (Minus minor distortion when automatically switching to landscape, portrait and at start up) . I am going to post a picture if I can. I believe the issues arise when we try updating to Marshmallow from lollipop and we have made major modifications. (for example I had lolli viper and a host of other customization's). I had to do a factory reset wipe and format. I then installed a backup that was untouched bone dry cyanogen mod (no g apps yet). let that boot-up and rebooted into recovery. I then downloading the nightly form (today) the 18th from the website with the marshmallow G-apps. Pushed to my sd card, wiped cache and installed the nightly and installed the correct marshmallow G-apps (ARM 64 6.0) right away. After this,I rebooted phone (it will take a while; almost as long as it did when the first nightly for lollipop came out and we flashed from color OS). It's up and running on my phone. I also still have and used the twrp recovery.

going to give this a go, but I was doing factory reset and format as well, is that mean the factory reset doesnt work as it should? Flashing cm 12 rom first to be able to boot to cm13 rom later is very strange way when you think about it

indeed i agree 100%. I really think it boils down to if we have any customization. I had the same error (in regards to the audio FX) You should try installing a fresh clean cyanogen nightly without g-apps or any mods. Let it boot-up and try the steps i mentioned. do you have an audio customization or any that might have changed something (it shouldn't matter but I'm considering any and everything)? If this is the case the recovery might need tweaking as that would mean somehow or someway it doesn't allow us to properly wipe and format (another consideration). I really hope you and everybody else can also update. I'm trying to upload screenshots of my phone

I was on ColorOS while ago, went to TWRP and done manual wipe of Dalvik, System, Data and Cache. Installed latest cm12.1 rom without any gapps and let it boot up to home screen. Went back to TWRP and done same wipe as before. Installed cm13 without any gapps and this time I got little further than ussualy, I could see message "finishing boot" but again end up in bootloop as before. So no luck in my case...
About the error in TWRP: yes I was using viper4android before and it seems the TWRP recovery doesnt wipe the device right way - well actually not even CM recoveries can I think.

The events you listed I went through the same exact sequence. Keep trying it took for me; after a painstaking install experience of course. Also you're right Cyanogen recovery doesn't allow full wipe and install.

Well, I took my 12.1 installation without any wipe, went to CM recovery from 12.1, installed my (self compiled at that time) build + opengapps (it's important to install those before booting M for the first time), booted, done. I don't have any /system mods though.
I guess I'll try the nightly and see what happens there. Did anybody of you get a logcat of the failed boot attempts?

Just follow this quide with flashing twrp, only instead of twrp flash the stock recovery image. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63189590&postcount=5 Sorry, there is only boot command, you should type "fastboot flash recovery stock.recovery.img" - when "stock.recovery.img" is a filename of your stock recovery downloaded on your computer.
No need for wipe when installing recovery. I recon to install stock recovery and then install stock ColorOS from it, let it boot, install twrp later and do what you want then.

Looks like it's broken for everyone. I tried multiple recoverys, full wipes including /system and no joy. Guess we'll just have to wait!

Installed using TWRP v3.0 Recovery by clean slate (Wipe Data/System,cache,dalvic including internal storage data)

Same problem rises again and again in all CM,ASOP version i installed.

Try using the base rom as v5.6.11 and try using the old twrp v2.8.7

I have same issue. Nandroid backup of CM12, Mowkee, Resurection does not successfully load anymore. While the MIUI 7 v7.1.1.0 nandroids still load with no problem. I used to load my other custom rom nandroid with no problem. I did also install the new ver3 TWRP but tried reverting back to Magdag Mi4i TWRP but still same issue.

Try provide with a logcat, might be more useful in helping you.

No other custom rom is working on my mi4i
After clearing the system data cache . . I installed cm13 using twrp by maddag...after successfully installed the rom and gapps when it finishes boot and the welcome screen appears then its stuck in the welcome screen for 5secs then reboots them after booting up again on welcome screen again restarts..it is happening every time.. So I installed cm12 and after finishing boot...again same problem so I reverted back to miui by installing the rom via fast boot by mi pc suite and it booted successfully without any problems.. And in miui rom my mob laggs too much and the benchmark in antutu is 29000...I think I need to replace the mobile phone..still 2 months warranty remaining..?

Don't forget to flash MIUI V.6.6.6 (or V.6.6.6 patch ROM) first before you restore your nandroid backup like CM12, Mowkee, Resurection if you from new MIUI ROM.
If you want to restore MIUI7 nandroid backup from CM12 you need to flash MIUI7 patch ROM first.

Don't forget to flash MIUI V.6.6.6 (or V.6.6.6 patch ROM) first before you flash to CM13, if not you'll get bootloop. If you use default init.qcom.post_boot.sh and your phone heat up it will lags, so use edited init.qcom.post_boot.sh.

I can confirm that this DID magically works!
No need to use the old TWRP, just flash MIUI V6.6.6(I used the fastboot package[1], not sure if recovery package works) then flash TWRP then flash other custom OSes.

Wifi and bluetooth not working in R7 plusf

I run CM 13 and want to back to color os because it is not run so smooth. I format and then flash stock recovery image (then recovery) via twrp and reboot to stock recovery.
In stock recovery i wipe data and cache. That's problem come. Before finish, the screen goes black. I try to power on the device, back to wipe data then the screen goes to black again. I try to boot to recovery and fastboot but it remain the same, back to wipe data and then the screen goes to black..
I try repair it using msm tool but because my comp not recognize the device, i use QFIL. And then i can use the fastboot to boot stock recovery. Suceed. But no os inside. Try and error many times, i can power on the device at the end.
But now the other problem comes. My wifi and bluetooth not work. And message nv backup appear.
Flash project spectrum. Wifi and bluetooth work. I flash back to stock os. Wifi and bluetooth not work again..
May someone help me to solve the problem (make bluetooth and wifi work again)?

To get back to ColorOS from spectrum flash this rom from internal storage.

I think your initial problem was that you didn't flash open Gapps right after you flashed CM13.
Most users who are new to custom roms don't know that they have to flash Google apps separately.

Did you boot into CM after flashing CM? and then installed Gapps later on? This could explain corrupted cache.
Always follow these steps on custom roms. (first time install not upgrade)
Boot into TWRP, select wipe/factory reset.
1. Install CM Rom
after that select the next zip (or add more zips to flash)
2. install Gapps.
Let it boot and setup your phone.
If you follow this you will never have a problem in CM.
Especially the R7 series. Every change to the code is closely tripled (even quadruple) checked by devs.
Because the R5, R7, R7Plus, R7S all share the same base and its tested in on every phone.

Especially the R7 series. Every change to the code is closely tripled (even quadruple) checked by devs.
Because the R5, R7, R7Plus, R7S all share the same base and its tested in on every phone.

But did you wipe factory reset before flashing all the above? Coming from ColorOS. Else those errors can't be explained.

Yes. I wipe all but not the internal storage. Is it the cause? I do not know why twrp cannot read otg. So i put CM file on internal storage.

I don't know about the R7Plus TWRP. I don't maintain that TWRP. I know that my R7S TWRP works with OTG.
Internal storage should have been fine. I think it will stay a mystery why you received those errors.

Once back on ColorOs from Spectrum. Flash this older version of ColorOs and then CM everything including bluetooth should work fine.

Which method fixed the issue in the end?

Maybe bad repaired or bad flashing. Persist folder is empty. Thats why i can not install CM and unvailable wifi and bluetooth address. So flashing persist.img after remove the old one.

Please Help! Enters bootloop when I flash multirom recovery!

Please refer this development thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-l/orig-development/mod-multirom-xperia-l-t3397663 . Been trying long to check out multirom and everytime I end up with a Bricked device and have to do a flash..
SO the problem is I tried flashing multirom with stock and doesn't seem to work. That's when I got to know that it doesn't work with stock ROM . Hence I tried with CM 12.1. Used dd Install Method to flash latest TWRP 3.0.2 on CM 12.1 and installed the multirom-20160614-v33x-UNOFFICIAL-taoshan.zip. It goes into Bootloop and stuck at sony logo everytime i try. Also I tried with LineageOS 14.1. Help Appreciated.:angel:

It's not working with latest MM versions and never with android N! Because it's development is not continued in Xperia L (unfortunately ). But I think it's working with Resurrection Remix MM with being installed as primary ROM, and some older versions like Lollipop as secondary ROM ( lol I'm using this method now with RRemix MM & Stryflex MM v1.0 ! )
After installing first ROM using some other TWRP recoveries, go to recovery again and install multiROM recovery, then reboot to recovery again and install v33x zip file. Now go to main menu in recovery and select advanced option on top and install the second ROM in external sd card!
Now both of ROMs should work without any problem!

Partially solved now

First of all Thanks man for taking up time for responding
I did a full wipe and then put up lineageOS 14.1 which comes equipped with a TWRP 3.0.2 recovery(or the one that I flashed through adb lol) and tried it again this time being more careful.. flashed the multirom recovery and then rebooted.. FINALLY got it this time flashed the MULTIROM too.. VOILA! done!
Now I have a different issue though... When I add a new ROM (CM 12.1) the lollipop one to the sd card I go through a new phase of errors. It says the nightly can't be used for flashing other than multirom now and ended with some errors and failed ! P.S The nightly is nt corrupted cuz i used it few days back and it was working just fine..

Good to hear that! Ok, I think there is two ways to solve this issue.
First, you may simply test and use another ROM for secondary!
Second way is longer and you should have an external sd card with more space (like 8GB and up).
First, full backup this ROM, and then clean flash 12.1 ROM to be primary.
Next, backup this ROM too, and then recover the first backup and go to recovery again, and now, go to advanced tab and choose "add a rom" and select install from backups, and use that second backup to be installed as secondary ROM. It should work now!
And remember that: the chance of booting android N after installing second ROM, is very low. It may bootloop! because as I said, development of multiROM for our phone is not continued.
