Stock firmware problem after Cyanogenmod

A friend of mine suggested that I try Cyanogenmod, so I decided to flash my Galaxy Mini. The first problem was the bootloop, and no matter how many times I wiped the phone, it was always stuck at the Android text. So I decided to try the Honeycomb mod. Same happened. So I decided to flash it with Android 2.3.6 from sammobile.com. At last, it started working. However, Google Play still sees every application as "installed" (but of course they aren't), and when I try to delete from GP, nothing happens. After trying to install other applications, I realized that I cannot install anything from the market. Any idea how I could solve this problem? I would be very grateful.

Yes I did. I used CWM 5.0.2.6. The funny part is that after being turned off 3 times, Google Play started working But if there's a solution to the bootloop problem I would love to hear it. I searched this forum and the internet and nothing, even though I followed a cyanogenmod wiki's guide.

did you wipe two times before and after flashing cyanogenmod rom

How old is your sd card? because same happened to me. I needed to format my sd card.

Thanked accidentally.
Anyway, tour problem is the CWM you used, didnt u see the DONT USE sign in the version 5.0.2.6 thread? 5.0.2.8 would avoided those errors in flashing custom ROMs
Sent from my GT-S5570 using xda premium

My SD card is as old as my phone, about 9 months old.
No, I didn't see the sign, and to be honest, I didn't even know that there was a 5.0.2.8 version. Do you think it would work with that?

try flash cm7 trough this recovery---->forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342190 i think this in the best cmw........

I'm sure it works. 5.0.2.6 had some issues as said in the thread, but 5.0.2.8 or 4.0.0.5 works fine. Try it
PM me anything GT-S5570

So I downloaded the new recovery, flashed it via Odin, and now nothing works. When I enter recovery it says that it can't mount /cache/log and /cache/recovery (I think it says these two). I looked around and found that it could be stuck in a bootloop, but luckily Android loads. However, I can't root my phone due to several errors, so I can't install Cyanogen mod. I think I'll give up now But thanks for all the help!

This happens because you are in stock ROM, this errors are normal.If you want ONLY to root your phone you should use stock recovery. Otherwise you can proceed.

Thanks very much Here is what I did step by step:
I returned to the stock recovery by installing the stock firmware. I rooted the phone with stock recovery. Then I installed CWM recovery 5.2.0.8, but I still get the same error in CWM: it can't mount a few things. I still tried installing Cyanogen without wiping, and of course it's stuck at the boot screen with the Android text (I had a feeling that it wouldn't work if the recovery is not fully operational, so I did not want to lose every contact for nothing again). I read that this problem can be solved by formatting the SDCard, so I tried formatting it with PC and the phone also, but nothing. So now I'm back to the stock firmware and recovery with my phone rooted and no idea how to solve any of the problems.

Flasging CyanogenMod without wipes? Seriously? Thats exactly why it never worked!! CWM cant mount somethings because you were in stock ROM
Use some backup program to backup contacts, apps, whatever and flash cyanogenmod wiping data and cache before and after.

This was just a trial run due to the new CWM recovery. If you read back, I already wrote that I tried wiping both data and cache before and after flashing Cyanogen mod. This "mounting" problem only came up with the new CWM recovery, 5.2.0.8.
The basic Google Apps were all there, since I used a rom from sammobile.com, downloaded programs like poweramp were the ones that did not work.

And you tried wipes using 5.2.0.8 version? The mounting problem happened with me only in this recovery too, maybe because it is updated, different or whatever but I flashed and everything was good. Anyway, stay with stock, it seems better for you.

It is just name of the ROM, and the developer writes you clearly in the first blue field, in the first text line:
Android Base CM10.1.3. RC1 JellyBean
JellyBean is not ICS (ICS is 4.0.x) so you need Gapps for CM10.1x / Android 4.2.x
CyanogenMod 9 is based on ICS

This isn't meant to be flashed via Odin.
Download the rom + addons + gapps + CM9 (you don't need CM9 gapps). You can download the rom + addons from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2075058
1.) Backup everything you need to- call logs, SMS, bookmarks, etc with Titanium or other methods of your choice
2.) Reboot into recovery. Perform the three wipe combo (data, cache, Dalvik)
3.) Flash CM9. You'll probably have to flash it twice- once for the kernel, another time for the rom. Let it boot.
4.) Once CM9 has booted, check that you still have reception.
5.) Reboot into recovery again and do the wipe combo. This time choose to flash the base rom. You'll need to flash it three times- once due to the incompatible partition (first flash overcomes this), another time for the kernel, a third time for the rom.
6.) Once the base rom's finished flashing, reboot. Check you still have your IMEI- you'll know if you still have reception.
7.) Reboot to recovery, flash addons (flash Addons then Addons_V1)
8.) Reboot
9.) Back to recovery (AGAIN), flash gapps.
Unfortunately a one-time flash with Odin isn't possible. But the endless flashes you have to do for RemICS V6 is well worth it

thx for reply
thx for your reply and apologies for getting back to you late.
If only i could do it the way you suggested but for some reason (me) i have messed the phone so that it now no longer is able to mount the external SDCard so putting the relevent zip files on the ext card is useless because in recovery mode using CWM these files fail to show.
I note that via CWM it shows the card as unmounted. If i try and do a mount it fails.
any ideas?
thx

What about your internal storage?
Sent from my GT-P7510 using Tapatalk HD

Here is where my noob-ness kicks in.
What internal storage is available by default on the Note1? Is it just the internal sdcard?
what puzzled me when I last flashed with odin (repeated it a number of times as I was trying to get the device to recognise ext sd card) to get the current Darky Extreme rom on (which is working fine no problem at all) is that there was still some relic directory structure left over. These were all empty folders visible when navigating within CWM. Didn't matter what type of formatting I did they wouldn't go. To summarise: much confusion and something got twisted.
So questions arising are:
-How to nuke the internal disk/card properly so there are no remnants prior to me doing another darky reinstall?
-Then, how to copy a zip file to internal card but still have it remain after the format and wipes that would precede a zip install?
-How to fix the device to mount the ext sdcard? FYI other sdcards can't be mounted either. I have tried 4 different ones. And here's the kicker-once booted I go to file manager and there I can see and access all the files/folders on the external card!!! So it's definitely a phone problem as opposed to a sdcard problem. Something got flagged along the line.

[Help]Recovery won't wipe data

Hey guys,
I was running CM 10.1.3 and decided to go to Slim Bean 2.1. I followed the instructions, but when I rebooted instead of a clean install, I had all my old apps. Naturally, I went back to recovery and wiped everything again including sdcard and flashed Slim again (from external sd card). However, when I rebooted, again I had everything - old apps, music, photos... As you might imagine after this dirty flash the phone is quite laggy. Please tell me how to make recovery properly wipe the old data.
Any help is appreciated

What recovery are you running? I am going to assume CWM v6.0.3.1...
From main menu;-
Wipe Data/factory rest
Wipe cache partition
From Mounts and Storage menu;-
Format /system
Format /cache
Format /data
Format /sd-card
From Advanced manue;-
Wipe dalvik cache
Now install.

You assume correctly. I had already done that, but I did it again in the order that you described. No difference, I still get all my app, my wallpaper, and all my accounts are still logged on. That is strange. Is there another way to wipe the phone?

Yes, it's very strange. I have done that before, but never with such results. I think I might have to resort to a kdz flash of stock rom, but I'll wait a bit to see if someone comes up with a solution. Nevertheless, I will have to find a solution, because after the last several dirty flashes one on top of the other the phone does not work as it should. It is very laggy and with an even higher battery drain (which was the initial reason for a clean install).

I have to admit that I would look at doing a KDZ reflash to get everything back clean, then CWM and reinstall of the ROM.

too late now to go back to format and reinstall rom. just go in data/app delete everything in there. also in data/dalvic-cache. then if u know from system apps which ones u dont want , go delete them and then find their dalvic-cache in /cache/dalvic-cache.
then go delete from sdcard the folder android. then from sdcard delete every zero and empty folder. last one delete all data/data and reboot. nothing should be left from previous rom. now if u have more leftovers in data/media/obb or data/media/legacy, delete. (dont delete the legacy in storage/emulated...!). about the problem u had. did u choose wipe and selected manually to wipe all those or u chose to format all data ? there must be a choice to format everything. ( dont do it now it will delete everything ). if that doesnt work then fix permissions.

Somehow after several attempts it worked and wiped everything. I am not sure, however, if it works consistently.

I will certainly do that, but I have never used flashtool so far (kdz flasher, as well for that matter), So I just do not have the time to experiment right now, just in case if anything goes wrong. But I will certainly want to try a stock rom again.

[Q] P7320 trouble

Hi
I have a p7320 which I am trying to install a custom ROM to, and I am having some trouble.
I used this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1569122
1: flashed cwd through odin
2: flashed superuser through cwm
All fine until now
3: then I flashed the kernel from the same site through cwm
4: bootloop
I didnt take backup, so I couldnt nandroid back
I couldnt turn the device on, so I couldnt transfer another kernel
There were no "mount USB" in cwm so I couldnt transfer the files there either.
I was able to go into download mode, and I flashed the only stock rom I could find in .tar (flashable through odin)
from here: http://androidromupdate.com/2012/12/12/u-s-att-samsung-galaxy-tab-8-9-lte-sgh-i957-android-4-0-4-ice-cream-sandwich-update-finally-arrives/
flashing went fine and the tab booted.
Now I went back and flashed cwm again through odin, but when I was going to place superuser and the new rom on the sdcard.... there is no room on the tab.
In explorer it says : 0 byte available out of 26.9MB
This tab is 16GB.... what happened?
I cant transfer files to it, so the only thing I can flash is the .tar files through odin.
please help

Hmmm, this is usually a sdcard mount thing
so maybe all you have to do is reboot to CWM do a format /sdcard from mount and unmount section in CWM
then reboot to system and see if the problem still there

There is no such thing as format/sdcard in that section.

this probably means that your CWM version is old [5.5.0.4 I guess]
I don't know if your tab has a newer CWM cuz my tab is p7300,
so try to find a newer one or even try TWRP instead, cuz it also has sdcard format function
one little thing, you said your tab is P7320 and yet you have installed a SGH-I957 ROM {read it from your link}
I honestly don't know the deference between the two devices
what I'm trying to say is: maybe the problem is because you're using a ROM for a different device
so maybe you should try THIS [the latest ICS Odin tar samsung framework for P7320]

I have a p7320 and I am using this ROM.

Fast, no bloatware, no freezing.
I followed the instructions no problems. My recovery UI has an option partition SD card under advanced. Dont know if that will help you.

Hi
I was able to download another .tar full stock rom which I flashed with odin.
Worked out fine, and the memory of the SD card is back.
However... I once again flashed cwm and superuser, then i tried the rom you are linking to but the tab wont boot with it
Its just stuck with a black screen after the logo.
Now I have reflashed the stock rom with working sd card

Sorry about that. I remember I had a black screen for a few minutes but eventually it booted. The developer also pointed out boot animations are missing

Hi,
I'm the developer working on the CM10 ROM for the P7320 - yes, the first boot might take a while, and it doesn't show a boot animation, so it might look like it's crashed. But I have tested going from the stock ICS image to my ROM a few times and it seems to work fine, eventually. Perhaps you could give it another go and see?
Cheers.

Hi
I will definetely give it another go this evening
Can i flash superuser, your rom and gapps in one go? Or do I have to boot it in between?
thank you for your answer

The ROM should have super user already, so you shouldn't need that. You can do the ROM and gapps together.

I tried again, and this time it worked like a charm!
Thank you!

What am I doing wrong. My device starts to cyanogenmod boot animation but not further.
Do I have to do the dalvik wipe and cache wipe?
I think i have tried everything. It's been rolling boot animation about 30 minutes now.
Sorry about my bad language.
And thank you for your answers.

I dont have a solution. Is this the first time you use this ROM? One time I wanted to revert to stock to check something and I got an everlasting Samsung animation until I did a factory reset from recovery. Did you try factory reset?

Any custom rom - Boot loop

I've tried in twrp and cwm/cwm touch - I get a boot loop no matter which rom I flash
I made a backup of my stock 404 on cwm and twerp so It's easily reversible in either.
Similar to this post - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=45795997#post45795997
It involves flashing Pi-llama 1.4 via adb and then installing the custom rom over the top.
Ran into all sorts of issues, would hang on the third data write, so I cancel it and then it would continue etc... and install
Now I'm up and running I've got half PiLlama and this rom I put on, battery drain is bad and the clock process crashes when I try and set an alarm. Otherwise it's great.
Any ideas? Seems to be the data partition causing the problems.
I'm rooted and unlocked, thought I'd add.

I you want to flash a custom rom just don't wipe data and don't do a format /wipe data

The problem with that is it has previous rom stuff still installed.
I like a clean fresh install of a rom, so no contacts, messages, apps etc...
There is no way to do this without a bootloop.

Boot loop.
Get to the rom boot animation and it does the updating apps then boot loops back to the moto screen and rom animation then repeats until i power off and restore a backup.
Thank you both for suggestions so far. Getting closer to solving

Yes, I'm using cwm. Tried touch and twrp.
Tried the above, same bootloop.
Only works if i leave my stock 404, push pillama 1.4 via adb and then flash the custom ROM over that in cwm.
This leaves residue from 404 and pillama on my phone though.

Does stock 404 mean, you are still on ICS?
If so why don't you flash JB with RSD-Lite and try again installing a custom rom?

Can u make a logcat about it?

Will try the above then if it doesn't work I'll log it :good:

So I tried RSD lite with Android 4.1.2 Blur_Version.91.2.26001.XT890.Retail.en.EU
No dice. Failed at 7/16 System_Signed
This royally put me in a bad place. 45 minutes of ADB later, I'm back on my CWM backup of 404.
Gonna clean the logs and start from scratch

I have the same problem and I am on Stock 4.1.2. I have given up and no longer have a rooted phone with a custom ROM. I would, however, be grateful if someone could find a solution
If you are on 404 and trying to get to 4.1.2 you can root your phone then use the following method to unroot and install 4.1.2. You can then root again if you wish.

Thank you will give that a go.
I've got a problem now after trying the official 4.1.2 upgrade which failed miserably, the boot image has changed to the warning unlocked phone bla bla bla
My SMS centre number keeps disappearing stopping texts sending. Receiving and calling work fine. Tried the fixes online but all work for two minutes then it disappears again.
Can't factory reset, just boots back up with everything as it was when it turned off. Can't get into the stock recovery so stuck with CWM or twrp
Any time I flash a rom it boot loops.
Ideas on how I can get a clean official 4.1.2 onto the phone? Re-lock bootloader, remove root and then try?

So locking bootloader and removing root does not work.
I'd advise anyone that doesn't know what they're doing to avoid it.
It pretty much soft bricked my phone.
I've started a new thread in q&a with another issue regarding multi flash in fastboot hanging on the third or fourth download.
Im certain parts of the 4.1 are still there even after formatting everything in cwm and restoring my original backup.
Having network issues, 3g and wifi etc are fine. Sms, calls and anything to do with changing network operator just stops a few minutes after boot. I can still receive fine which is odd.
What's the deal with putting a radio on over an official ROM? Yey or ney
