Good afternoon. I appeared with the problem. This morning, decided to restore the factory firmware and flash by Odin. I have a Polish phone. I decided to test firmware for England. Everything was fine - no errors are published, the phone was worked well, but market after downloading any program and began installing just stopped working. I decided to put by CMW custom firmware . It worked , but I have not arranged that there was a lot of deleted programs. Again using the Odin I flashed originally in English version and here appeared the problem - the phone do wont to load. It stuck at Samsung logo. It just concentrates on animation. Then, pierced to Polish version - the same result. What can you advise me?

Hello,
I am a noob trying to install a rom with aroma installer. But now it has been stuck at the page where it says: The installation wizard has successfully installed *********. Press next to exit.
What do i do? Power off?
Is it definitely stuck? Aroma doesn't always recognise touch events very accurately, and I usually have to tap the "next" button a few times before it registers. Failing that, if it's finished installing whatever you flashed, you should be fine to reboot manually anyway.
Yes,i have tried to push the next button many times but nothing happens. It has been like this for 30 minutes now. The successfully installed text appeared very fast, a second or two maybe after the previous screen. So if it has installed the rom, it was def a fast install.
Anyway, is it safe to try to reboot, even if it was in the middle of the install? Rebot to recovery and try again?
Well, there certainly isn't anything else to be done besides rebooting. I don't know what you were trying to install - if it was a several-hundred-MB ROM, as most things that use Aroma are, you would expect it to take a while. Smaller things can be flashed very quickly. If it _did_ go wrong somewhere, there are a few things:
1. What recovery, and what version thereof, are you using?
2. Did you wipe data before using the installer?
3. Most of all, what were you trying to install? There might be some known issue with certain configurations.
I wouldn't necessarily expect a working OS when you reboot, depending on what you were trying to install and how badly things went wrong, but you should be able to get back into recovery easily enough.
Thank you for your quick reply.
1. I use the CWM recovery in this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1914394 thread, not the newest, but 5.5 something i believe.
2. Yes, wiped all data + dalvik.
3. I was trying to install rXTREME on my SGS III lte i9305.
I've rebooted now, and everything works perfect as the phone was before i tried to do the install. No brick. I also tried to flash it one more time, but stuck at the same place again. Rebooted fine at stock rom again. Maybe i should take this as a hint that someone else should be put at the steering wheel.. :laugh:
EDIT: forgot link above
Found out what the problem was.
In Aroma Installer i selected EFS backup both times. The third time i tried i did not do this. And everything went fine. Runs smooth.
my galaxy s3 international version got stuck at 30% of formatting\data partition while trying to flash s4 revolution 4.1 rom

This is I9305 forum is this your phone ??
This thread is about Aroma installer is that your problem ???
Suggest you read the basic faqs and guides first looks like from your post you are either flashing wrong rom to your phone or have hijacked a thread in the wrong forum ./

So, to make a long story, short, for the past couple of days my phone has been soft-bricked... It first happened when I attempted to flash dmodv6 in CWM. Everything looked good throughout the installation, however, when I rebooted my device, I got stuck in a boot loop where It would say "Samsung Galaxy S III GT-I8190" for a few seconds, the screen would go black, then say the same thing again... over and over and over...
After a lot of trial and error because of NOT making a nandroid backup via CWM (stupid, I know - I had made one via Titanium Backup and thought that might be good enough), I finally was able to boot. Thanks to xXPR0T0TYPEXx, I was able to flash another rom by puting my external sd card into another phone, loading another rom onto it, and putting it back in my phone. I now had Cyanogenmod10 and was able to boot back up.
I attempted to restore the Titanium Backup I had made with this new rom (stupid again, I know) and it made almost every service on the phone stop working... I desperately wanted just to get back to square one - to install stock firmware and go from there. I followed tys0n's guide on flashing stock recovery then attempted to install stock firmware... All seemingly went well - I booted up, got past the initial "Samsung Galaxy S III GT-I8190" logo and finally got hung up at the "Samsung" logo. I left it one while I went to sleep, just to see if it would eventually work... I woke up and it was still the same. I tried flashing different version of the same stock firmware but it all ended in getting hung up at the "Samsung" logo.
A major problem is that I absolutely CANNOT flash a custom recovery via Odin - it just will NOT work. Everything looks good on Odin's end - I PASS, get the (succeed 1 / failed 0) thing but am sent to stock recovery every time I do the 3 button combination. I've tried many version of CWM and TWRP.... NOTHING. I've even unticked the "Auto-Reboot" button in Odin and pulled the usb cable and battery upon completion but, but nothing ever works. The only way I was ever able to get CWM on my phone in the first place was by an in-phone app... Rom Manager, maybe? I can't remember. But, as it is, that method is out of the question.
I've learned a lot about what I did wrong so that's the only good part of all of this. Now, all that's left is to fix the thing so I can go about it right. I'm completely out of ideas, have spent almost a full 24 hours searching solutions to this problem and I am at wits end...
I just want to get back to stock firmware... Any ideas, guys? Should I go about re-partitioning my device at this time?
I have the PIT file... but I'm not sure as to which firmware to choose. I imagine a firmware that is 4.1.1 like my phone was... but I'm not sure about the region. I live in the US and there is no US or North American region firmware version.Can anyone shed some light on which one I should choose?
My SSN underneath my battery say "GTI8190GSMH".
I'm sorry this is so long, I just wanted to explain what happened as best as I could. So, should I go about re-partitioning my device at this point? If so, what firmware would you recommend for my model? Are different region versions okay for a this method?
Or is there another way?
Thanks, guys. :silly:
Some additional details (if it will help): I can, indeed, boot into both recovery and download mode. I just can't seem to flash a stock rom that will boot past the "Samsung" logo.
I've even attempted to flash the param file after the rom flash but it didn't help.

Do you have the stock recovery now instead CWM? If yes do (if you didn't try it) a factory/data reset and wipe cache but it will delete your pics, music etc on your internal storage too.

Yeah, I have stock recovery now and I have tried that many, many times... Even if I install something like CyanogenMod, it still gets hung up on the CyanogenMod boot screen... And if I boot a stock firmware, it gets hung up at the same place at the "Samsung" logo...
I have an idea that one of the only options left is a PIT re-partitioning... If so, how would I properly go about that? Load the PIT file and the stock firmware in odin? Or only the PIT as PDA? I've heard a couple of different things and am unsure.

I don't know about PIT files but some people got this message : "CUSTOM PIT BINARY" in recovery mode after flashed a PIT file (maybe they used a other PIT file that wasn't compatible). So make sure you use a PIT file that is GT-i8190 compatible.
I tried flashing the PIT file for the hell of it because I am completely out of ideas.... It failed repeatedly in Odin.
I have no clue on how to fix this... I've tried countless roms and they all get stuck on their respective boot screens. The only one that gave me a glimmer of hope was Cyanogenmod10.2.... It went as far as saying "Android is upgrading" and showed "starting apps" but it got hung up there.
I don't know what to do, guys. Someone help!!!

Use a custom ROM to see if it will fix the problem .Try to flash CyanogenMod 10.2 by NovaFusion via odin or if you flash CyanogenMod 11 then you will automatically get the TWRP recovery. NovaFusion Team Homepage : novafusion.pl. I know you want the stock ROM but try other ROMs to get a booting phone again

I have... I've tried numerous stock roms and numerous custom roms... all versions of Cyanogenmod, Chameleon, Carbon, Slim mod, etc... They all get stuck at their respective logos.
I even tried the Cyanogenmod with TWRP but, as I explained earlier, I absolutely CAN NOT flash a custom recovery unless I use what ever app I used.... It doesn't work with Odin or with a rom. I don't know why.
I wish someone had more info on repartitioning my phone and if it would help.

hello everyone, this thread might seem like a repost to some of you, but since the answer has yet to be found on the other thread, might as well try asking about it myself
so i've got a galaxy s3 mini (the i8190 version, not the l or the n) it's in stock 4.1.2 international version. yesterday, out of nowhere the phone just keeps on rebooting after a few minutes of booting up ( it got to the lockscreen and home screen just fine, but it keeps rebooting after that). and i think, well might as well just flash something on top of this stock rom so i decided to get the cm11 from novafusion, along with odin and tried to flash it. it all goes well in odin, no problem at all (odin flashes green passed sign).
but the strange thing is, when the phone rebooted, it goes back to the stock rom, with all the apps intact and with stock recovery. so far, i've been trying to flash almost everything into this phone via odin and odin always says it succeeded but nevertheless, everything stays the same, i've tried flashing some custom roms, custom recoveries but it doesn't seem to work. and the flash counter never goes up, it still says "custom binary download : no"
i've also tried to go to stock recovery and tried to wipe data / factory reset the phone which it said it has done successfully but when i booted in, nothing changed. i'm still logged on as my account with all the apps and files intact.
this problem has also been asked here but no definitive answer seems to have surfaced there.
please, any help would be appreciated
Hello...
I'm new to all of this rooting, installing and so( used to do this years ago on my LG KP500 Cookie ), so I'm not sure what to look/search for when I'm in this "bad" spot.
I used my sony xperia SP, but I did not like the current version of android it was, as it was lagging, hanging and other weird stuff, so I've decided to try and install the "lollipop" version. Since the guide I followed was detailed, I got it all working perfectly fine, until I tried to install gapps. After installing them, my phone started crashing / hanging on booting, which kept kicking it back to "SONY" screen, and from there it's just an endless loop.
so I tried to wipe and use backup that I had saved, so I could try and reinstall the ROM. It ended up at where I can't do anything anymore. I start my phone - "SONY" screen and nothing else. Can't access the CWM recovery, it doesn't progress anywhere, just sits there.
I'm lost. I don't know what to do Please help ;~;

so today when i got home my dad told me he just installed a new rom from romnation(he dosent remember which rom but he said it was an offical rom)
BUT he downloaded it stright to the phone and installed it without erasing anything(date/cache/davlik)...
so when he tried to use the phone it will gives errors like gaps stoped working and all kind of stuff that made the phone useless...
so i downloaded "VIBEUI_V2.8_1526_7.80.1_DEV_K50-T5" rom and gapps64 and went to the CMW and this time i erased the date cach and davlik and installed the rom and after that the gapps
and now i cant get past the welcome screnn becuase as soon as i choose english or chinse it will give me "wlan has stopped" and return to the language menu...
so now im stuck becuase i cant use adb to root it and SP tools dosent work too(i tried to keep it pluged for an hour and it still wont do anything with ot without the battery)
what can i do? and thanks for any help...

Try removing the battery and plugging the phone in to the PC.
Start SP Tools with CWM set in the scatter and only recovery ticked
Press Download in SP tools and then insert the battery
CWM should download to phone
If that fails repeat but plug the phone in once you press Download, then insert the battery.

Omg..i have almost exactly the same problem and the solution that MrAAnderson suggested didn't work.Here's how i ended in this problem.I was running VIBEUI_V3.0_1602_7.407.1_DEV_K50-T5 ROM on TWRP recovery made By Pr1nc3V app Lenovo K3 Note Manager [v2.1].Since i had annoying bug with "R" (roaming icon) and "gapps stopped working" issue i wanted to re-flash same ROM.I entered into TWRP recowery,cleared dalvik+cache,rebooted into recovery again.Now i wanted to flash ROM,but it didn't flash it gave me an error,same thing happens if i try to flash stock recovery (i even tried naming ROM and recovery as "recovery.zip" and "update.zip").Rebooted the phone but i'm also stucked on welcome screen where i can't pass it because of "Unfortunately,WLAN stopped working".
Tried to flash ROM and stock recovery with SPFlashTool but the tool doesn't see phone at all,same as Lenovo K3 Note Manager by Pr1nc3V .Right now i'm running out of solutions for this mess i created,any advice will help.Help me please to restore my phone.
EDIT: i just realized that i actually made a "factory reset" in TWRP recovery..not just wipe data,cache and dalvik.....what are my options now folks?
Ok i'm happy to announce that i resolved my problem (after a panic mode on,lol).Here is what i did..
1. Obviously you have to get back on your stock (original,ugly chinese-english one) recovery (in case you already didn't..).To do that i used SP Flash tool.(i wouldn't go into details but if you need just ask).
After that we have following situation..stock recovery + dev ROM (which isn't working well).
2.If you try to flash any ROM in this state it will fail (based on my experience,i tried to flash exactly same ROM which is already installed..no way.).So now next step is to get a CUSTOM (TWRP or CM) recovery,again flashing it with SP Flash tools.
From this point you can choose wher would you go...STOCK rom ,MODDED one ...anything actually.I hope i clarified a bit.
sptools is not detecting my device
