[Q] Can't flash CM 7 RC5.7, need help!

My galaxy mini has 2.3.6, I did with the ordered list:
1- Partition SD card
2- wipe data and cache
3- install zip from sd card
and after a few seconds, it says: "file aboarded"
what's wrong in my way?

you have missed the IMPORTANT STEP:
You can't install a custom rom (CM7) from gingerbread stock recovery, so go to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342190
download ODIN 4.38+tass.ops and tass.recovery-cwm.tar from attachments, then follow the given instructions carefully.
after all is done successfully, reboot to cwm recovery, wipe cache and data then install zip from sdcard.
now you're a happy member from this amazing wonderful and big community

As I understood, he already have CWM because he was able to partition SD card...
Maybe the file you downloaded was corrupt, try download it again. And make sure you install the big one (~94MB) first!

aborted maybe? try to redownload, maybe your file is corrupt.

If you're using rom manager, stop using it while you can before your phone bricks.
Did you root your phone?
Did you install Clockworkmod recovery?
If so, then the file is likely corrupt or you're trying to install a patch file before installing the actual rom.
Try redownloading the rom and install the biggest one first.

Maybe you forget mount system?? Or file corrupt?

try disabling or enabling the script verification and signature check in install zip from scared option it was worked for someone before

are you try to install CM 7 with CWM Recovery 5 or using Recovery Stock based ?
if you're using CWM 5, then try to re download file zip

try redownload again..

which kernel can i falsh with jvu ? ???

i tried midnight kernel ... get the same result ,, stuck on boot screen

here, first step is root your phone again,
download the XXXJVU zip file
then download semaphore kernel
use odin3
do with the XXXJVU step (download mode)
after that
flash the semaphore kernel (download mode)
after that your phone will startup.
if there any problems like asking for a pin password, just type any password until you go with recovery mode, then wait for it.
then there you can install the gamerzrom using recovery mode
any gamerzrom version will do.
wipe dalvik cache, wipe cache partition, wipe data factory reset
then install zip from sd card
choose zip from sd card
then select the gamerzrom
then yes, after that it will install the gamerzrom
if any problem occurs, like there was a problem when you're transferring the gamerzrom zip from your pc to the sd card(device). like it was canceled. then try to open it on your computer, when it says some problem, try to move it again, or maybe there was a problem when you download the zip.

it looks like the zip file is corrupted, try maybe to redownload it

[Q] flash ICs custom rom from GB

I flashed GB rom KJ1 via PC Odin. Everything is fine except the key board saying null null. But that is ok beacuse I am not going stay in GB but planning to flash kingdoird 4.1.1. When I go to recovrey mode I can see all the options, such as wipe data and cashe. Also in advanced option wipe Dalvik cache and mountunt and storage format /cache,format /system,format /data and also the ROM KD 4.1.1 in external SD card. Therefore my question is since all option are avaiable to me in recovery mode and I am in GB rom, can proceed to flash the custom ICS rom, KD v4.1.1. Thanks
.

Custom ROMs usually require root access as well as the option to install a ZIP file from SD card/internal memory. Do you see such option as well? If not, you probably need to download a matching rooted kernel with CMW recovery console pre-installed. See here for a list, choose the one matching KJ1.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360

I can see the option Install zip from sd card and the rom file in sd card. The Recovery mod is CWM based recovery V5.0.2.7

[Q] "Fireworm" rom install info

hello guys
I'd like to try out this rom here, but there's no instructions anywhere
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2040104&page=12
I'm currently on 2.3.6 xxjw4 rooted GB
any help?

I suppose that it has to be installed like this ( I have been thaught like this and successfully using this every time):
1. Flash a custom recovery like CWM or TWRP
2. Download ROM/ GApps and place them on the SD card of your phone
3. Reboot to recovery
4. Wipe everything except /sdcard and /emmc
5. Flash the ROM
6. Flash the GApps
7. Reboot System and wait a bit ( first boot always takes a time)
Hope I could help
Sent from my GT-I9001 using xda app-developers app

thanks for the directions mate!
I got this working on the first try
however I didn't wipe anything before installing this, because it was giving me heaps of trouble, like not being able to find my internal sd
if anyone else wants to install this and coming from gb 2.3.6 rooted:
flash semaphore 2.4.7 with odin first
copy the rom and gapps to internal sd (I made a folder named fireworm and put the rom and gapps there)
boot into recovery with button combo vol.up + home + power
don't do any wipes
choose zip from sd card, select the rom
flash
it's gonna get stuck at semaphore logo
take out the battery and recovery button combo again
choose zip from sd card, select the rom and flash again, this time it will work
choose zip from sd card and select the gapps
flash
reboot
done!
finally on 4.2.2. after I don't how many errors, semi bricks and grey hair
p.s: looks and feel are great
I'd reply on the thread but it says I don't have enough posts

[Q] Lost CWM, help installing a new ROM.

Hey guys, first of all, just let me say, thanks for reading.
Here is the thing, I got my note a while back and rooted and installed CM 10 at the time, then I just kept using its update feature to keep up to date. I did that almost a year ago and never came back to XDA Devs. So im pretty rusty on procedures and that kind of stuff.
I was looking into installing a new ROM, one that has the S-Note, S-Memo and S-Pen drawing apps, and If I'm not mistaken, this one does:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1970626
I know how to install a new ROM, but when I reboot my phone I cant access CWM recovery to install from SD card.
So my question is: What would I need to do, to get back CWM so I can install the previously mentioned ROM, if I'm running the latest nightly of CM?
Thank you in advance for your time!

Sounds like you need to do a full wipe and flash a ROM with a kernel that has cwm. Via a computer

You can flash the hydracore kernel via PC ODIN or mobile ODIN should also work. Better do a full wipe and flash with PC ODIN.

Thanks guys!
Would asking for a link to the relevant and recommended tutorials be too much?

Help Installing New ROM
Hey guys, first of all, just let me say, thanks for reading.
I am a noob wanting to install custom rom my Galaxy Note N 7000
Android version : 4.0.4
Baseband version : N7000XXLRK
Kernal version : 3.0.15 - N7000XXLRK-CL811902
I was earlier planning to factory reset my Note and then install the latest firmware by Samsung from Kies
So I hard reset my Galaxy Note.
But I had some trouble downloading the update using Kies, that's when I decided to install custom ROM.
So the following are the details I have collected over my research on how to install Custom ROM on my Galaxy Note.
I am posting this thread because I want to check, if I have gathered the right information over my search
Please reply with the steps I have to remove or steps I have to add.
1. Have to root my phone and install a Safe Kernel.
Charge the battery to 100%
Then put my Phone in Debugging Mode
I have checked this thread [Beginners Guide]How to root Samsung Galaxy Note for rooting details and found 3 links for my kernel on the thread
[03.06.2013][PhilZ-cwm6][n7000] v5.06.1 Safe Stock Kernel+CWM6+Root+exFAT+ext4-LT6
http://d-h.st/SZ2 - Filename: PhilZ-cwm6-XXLRK-XEU-3.1
http://d-h.st/NFY - Filename: PhilZ-cwm6-XXLRK-XEU-2.7
http://d-h.st/b5M - Filename: PhilZ-cwm6-XXLRK-XEU-2.5
I guess PhilZ-cwm6-XXLRK-XEU-3.1 is the latest kernel for my phone from the version details.
Please confirm if I was right in choosing the kernel.
- Copy downloaded file to Ext SD card to root directory
- Reboot into recovery (vol up+Home+power)
- Select install(update) zip from ext SD card
- Select PhilZ-cwm6-XXLRK-XEU-3.1-signed.zip' which I copied to Ext card
- Reboot device
Questions???
---> Does root directory mean I have to copy the files to external SD card when its just open?
---> How can I check if my phone is successfully rooted?
2. Backup my Phone’s IMEI
-Install Root Browser from google store
-Copy efs folder to external SD Card storage and then to my computer
3. Backup the Complete ROM
- Reboot into recovery (vol up+Home+power)
- Scroll down to the “backup and restore” option and backup the ROM to external storage using the option “backup to external sdcard” option.
Question???
---> Can I save this backup to my computer so that I can delete the back up and save space on the external SD?
4. Installing Custom ROM
I am planning to install [AOSPA 4.2.2] PARANOIDANDROID 3.60 (June 11)
- Download the latest ROM pa_n7000-3.60-11JUN2013-053741.zip using the link
- Download the latest Gapps pa_gapps-full-4.2-20130615-signed.zip from the link
- Copy ROM and Gapps to Internal SD card
- Reboot into recovery (vol up+Home+power)
- Select "wipe data/factory reset"
- Select "wipe cache partition"
- Go to advanced and select “wipe dalvik cache” and “wipe battery stats”
- Go to mounts and storage and ”format system”
- Return back to the main menu and select “install zip" and choose zip from Internal sd card” and select the ROM
- Return back to the main menu and select “install zip" and choose zip from Internal sd card” and select the Gapps
- Select "wipe cache partition"
- Go to advanced and select “wipe dalvik cache”
- Finally, go back to the main menu in Recovery and select ”reboot system now”.
Questions???
---> Doesn't wiping all the data remove the ROM and Gapps we have copied to the Internal SD card?
---> Is it really the Internal SD card where I have to copy ROM and Gapps?
---> Do I really have to wipe cache after installing ROM and Gapps?
---> After I successfully install the custom ROM how will I receive the future updates?
Thanks in advance :laugh:

Hey mate, lotta questions you got there!
Firstly, you copy the PhilZ kernel .zip to your SD card and then go to recovery and flash it. You go to recovery, you'll have an option, flash .zip from SD card.
To check the root, you'll have superuser in your app drawer after you restart.
The backup you're talking about here is the nandroid backup, yes you can copy the folder to the PC later.
And when you wipe data, you don't lose your documents on the internal SD, the ROM and gapps will be still there, and you can copy the ROM and gapps .zip files to SD card too.
Yes wiping cache before flashing tje ROM is advisable. And once you root the phone, you won't get access to future updates by samsung officially, but you'll have the stock based custom ROMs on xda which solves that problem, else you can flash the official firmware anytime and update.
Hit thanks if this helped, guess it did
