Hi,
I tried to install cm7 in my galaxy mini, and when i rebooted it, the screen blacked out and only an android text showed up on the right. I'm using Mac OS X.
What should i do?
Thanks.
Try to wipe data and cache in CWM then reboot..
My Solution
Hey friend I have also faced the same while installing CM7.2rc5.2.I was able to solve by the following way....
1.go to cwm recovery mode and wipe cache partion and wipe data.
2.now again choose the zip file and install the custom rom
3.now,reboot the phone and wait untill u see the cyanogen home screens(may be 15 to 18 minutes)
4.if u get a force close like com.android.home has stopped unexpectedl. .then reboot again.
Hope it helps you.. ..
Another problem
What about if i don't have the cwm recovery???
You tried to install CM7 without a custom recovery?
This should do the trick: http://yagyagaire.blogspot.com/2011/09/installing-clock-work-mod-recovery-in.html
Ok, I'll try, thanks
Wait for seconds and then it will enter the OS.If not so,you can wipe the data and cache then install the cm7 again.

Hi all,
Today I installed Jewe SmartEdition on my phone. Everything went fine but suddenly it crashed while running Quadrant. Now it's in a boot loop and I'm not possible of getting in CWM. Does somebody know a fix for this ?
Thanx
Hi.
I don't know if there is a better solution. But if you can put it in download mode you can flash new rom with odin. But you lose your downloads etc.
I hope this help you! : )
Factory reset if you can followed by deleting Quadrant .
jje
unless you have resolved this already....
Pull the battery... put in to recovery mode...
wipe the cache partition and go into advanced CWM options and wipe the dalvik cache... then try rebooting the system....
any difference? or did you just install another ROM over it?
Hi,
I am using SGS I9000 for past 1.5yrs.
I am on stock ROM, i tried to flash once but phone always starts into bootloop. Need to sent it to Service Center by lieing that it wont boot up.
I also heard losing IMEI is common while flashing any ROM.
Now I am very scared to flash any custom rom, i have just only rooted my phone.
But my phone is giving a lot of problem, hanging a lot, Force Closes etc..!!
I can pay few amount if my phone is successfully flashed with CM10 ROM.
My location is New Delhi/NCR - India.
Please let me know if anybody is interested here to help me out.
Thanks

Please check if you're cf-rooted.
If you are, go this website : http://get.cm/?device=galaxysmtd and download the latest cm9 nightly .zip file.
Off your phone, Go into recovery mode, Wipe cache , factory reset and select the cm9 file from your sd card and install it.
YOU ARE DONE

Hi guys. I'm quite a noob, but have a good experience on flashing without be bricked (CM9, CM10, Crash, Paranoid...), but I have a problem.
I will explain to you step-by-step what I've done with my Note, so I wish some of you could help me.
1) I was running JB Crash ROM with PhilZ kernel.
2) Some apps got Force Close too often, so I went on Rom Manager and, after a look into the "Fix permissions" description ("It will fix some force closes" or something like that), I decided to give it a try and I tapped on it.
3) After that, my homescreen became unusable, because "TouchWiz Home" got EVERY TIME force closed without reason. Everything else worked fine, so I deciced to boot into CWM recovery to restore a nandroid backup of the same ROM.
4) Instead of tapping "restore", I tapped "backup" (my fault) and it started without possibility of get back. I got something like 200 Mb of free space, so in every case it will never have had success. My Note stucked at this point, so I decided to reboot manually (vol up+home+power) into recovery. Finally I tried to "restore" but I get this message: "ERROR WHILE RESTORING /SYSTEM".
5) I tried to reboot my Note, but it stucks at "Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000" screen without going on.
The good news is that it can go without problems into recovery and into download mode. What can I do? Flashing from CWM, for example, CM9 can fix this?
Please help me thanks!
1. Boot into CWM
2. Wipe data, dalvik and cache
3. Format system
4. Reflash your ROM
Don't use rom manager it's not compatible ....

After formatting /system, can I try to restore my nandroid backup? Or I have to necessary reflash my ROM? In that case, it's the same thing make it via CWM or via ODIN PC? I'm still on PhilZ recovery, which is safe I guess!
Anyway, thanks for your help
Via CWM or Odin, depends if you have your rom in the zip or the md5.tar format.
I would reflash to be clean. It's a bit more work in restoring your apps and data
afterwards, but at least you don't restore any messed up files.
if you can still access CMW and Download Mode then you probably are not brick... try fresh install through pc odin.. safe method no need to worry about bricking by fullwiping on unsafe kernel or raising triagle or binary counter whatsoever.. if you wanna play safe then PC ODIN and after that you can root your rom
Thank you guys, now I'm on stock ICS flashed via PC Odin and everything works fine I knew I was 99% not-bricked (still recovery and download mode avaiable), but I was a little scared too.
Thank you again!
glad you solved it.. :good:

Possibly you can go into download mode
Press vol up+ vol down + Power button while phone is turned off
Then connect your phone to PC and follow the unbrick tutorial

Have you format system and mount system after do all wiping? Because many people forgot this step and got same problem as you. Read the installation guide carefully next time.

It may happen if you are coming from a custom ROM into another custom ROM
It happened to me when I changed from Mindcr ROM to BouDzDroid ROM but I managed to solve it via odin as I already have my stock ROM and the phone opened in download mode

I think it is better to go to stock rom before flashing any custom rom in order to avoid dependencies, of course I'm a beginner in this

Hi,
1) to fix the problem, get the recovery mode and wipe the cache partition and maybe you need to do a factory reset (it will erase your configuration);
2) to installa a custom rom you need first to root the smartphone and second install CWM recoverty 5.x that override stock recovery;
3) boot in cwm recovery and install CM 10.1 (install zip from sd-card).

yes but to install CWM you need to access in recovery mode;
if it's not possible, you need to use ODIN and flash first stock rom.
