Hello
I have the problem that I cannot update my i9000 from CyanogenMod 10.1.3 to 10.2.0. After the update, Cyanogenmod doesn’t start anymore. It gets stuck at the boot animation: The blue CyanogenMod-mascot within the round rotating arrow. I waited 15min for it to start, then I left the phone for 2h and it still didn’t start.
I did the update as follows:
First, I tried to update with the automatic updater from CyanogenMod, but that didn’t work. It aborted and restarted CyanogenMod 10.1.3.
So I tried it manually with ClockworkMod (v6.0.3.6):
- wipe data / factory reset
- wipe cache partition
- advanced -> wipe dalvik cache
This message was shown: E:unknown volume for path [/sd-ext]
Dalvik cache wiped.
- install zip -> choose zip from sdcard -> cm-10.2.0-RC1-galaxysmtd.zip
It aborted and the following message was shown:
This ROM uses an incompatible partition layout
Your /data will be wiped upon installation
Run this update.zip again to confirm install
- Did it again: install zip -> choose zip from sdcard -> cm-10.2.0-RC1-galaxysmtd.zip
Now the zip-file was installed completely.
- reboot system now
The result was that the phone got stuck at the boot animation.
Remarks:
- I didn’t do a backup of apps and data, because I didn’t have important data on the phone.
- I didn’t have root-rights in CM 10.1.3.
I tried it again with the stable version of CM 10.2.0. I didn’t have to install the zip twice anymore, but the phone still gets stuck at the boot animation. Wiping cache and dalvik cache again didn’t make it start.
I can still boot into ClockworkMod and it was also possible to go back to CM 10.1.3. Just CM 10.2 doesn’t start up.
What do I have to do to make CM 10.2 start up?
Thank you very much for your help.
Best regards

Tomy, CyanogenMod is already custom ROM, there is always root access on it
Try it this way:
download Gapps for CM10.2x (Android 4.3.x) and paste them on your external SD card
put the card in your phone
run it in recovery mode
wipe cache and dalvik cache
flash Gapps for 4.3
wipe again cache and dalvik cache.
reboot
Post if it worked.

As the partition layout is different in cm10.2, you should flash it at least 2 times and wait for system to be stable for about 15-20 minutes
Tetakpatak and Rohitdahiya, thanks for the reply and advice!
In my previous post, I forgot to mention that I installed CyanogenMod without the Gapps. I’d like to try if an android-phone without the Gapps is still useful. Somehow I don’t like the data-collecting-mania of Google.
I tried again the update from CM 10.1.3 to 10.2:
- I downloaded cm-10.2.0-galaxysmtd.zip again and copied it to the internal SD-card of the phone.
- Restarted the phone into ClockworkMod recovery.
- wipe data / factory reset
- wipe cache partition
- wipe dalvik cache
- install zip -> choose zip from sdcard -> cm-10.2.0-galaxysmtd.zip
- install zip -> choose zip from sdcard -> cm-10.2.0-galaxysmtd.zip
(Did it twice. Don’t know if necessary.)
Didn’t install Gapps.
- wipe cache partition
- wipe dalvik cache
- reboot system now
Unfortunately CM still gets stuck at the boot animation. The arrow has been rotating for over an hour now.
To my knowledge the Gapps are not mandatorily required to install CM. I could install CM 10.1.3 without the Gapps without any problems.
Could a full-wipe solve my problem?
ClockworkMod -> mounts and storage -> format /system …?
I have never done this before.
Or is there something else I can do?
Regards
Tomy

First of all, don't forget to quote the user whom you want to contact, because he don't get any notification until you quote. I was just checking around the questions and thus I saw this.
Sometimes, there is requirement of g-apps for the core system to be working ( Not sure in case of cm10.2). Try with g-apps (you may choose light package).
In my opinion, it should work. If not, try from the start ( flashing gingerbread with Odin with repartition ticked, then its root and finally cm10.2 from recovery)
Also make sure your handset is i9000 and you are using cm10.2 for the same.
And finally, All the best
CM doesn't neccesarily need Gapps to boot up. In fact most custom roms don't - they are still usable, just that everything Google-related doesn't work.
Its a bit odd seeing as how you've pretty much done what I would have done if I was installing CM to a Galaxy S. I can't think of any reason why it wouldn't work.
As far as I know as well, formatting /system is more of a last-resort method, not something you'd immediately do.
However, I had a similar problem installing a rom onto my tablet - different device, I know, but try this anyway and see if you get anywhere:
1.) Go back into recovery if its still bootlooping
2.) Wipe data, cache, Dalvik (and this is after you've flashed the CM10.2 zip twice like you did)
3.) Reboot device without flashing Gapps - this is to see if it boots up.
Let us know what happens.

Tomy, now it is getting clear- of course, I tought you already had Gapps on your CM10.1.3 installed so in such case they would definitely need to be updated to 4.3
Yes, the ROM shouold work perfectly fine also without Gapps
Your workflow sounds correct, but just to make sure: after first attempt to flash CM10.2 build, there should be a warning that all your data will be wiped, right? After that you must again choose the option "install zip" and install CM10.2. It will work this time.
If it doesn't work, download again the CM10.2 zip as it may be corrupted file. BTW, I didn't like that build for several reasons and returned to RC version.
If nothing helps, flash back your CM10.1.3 and restore your nandroid backup if important files were there. If the downgrade won't work for different partition of the /system, use my unbricking guide and revert to stock, then to CM10.1.3, then to CM10.2.
Keep step by step on the guide if you use it, it has important points to control before flashing. Flashing with re-partition needs always a PIT file, or with other words: without that file re-partition option mustn't be checked. Doing it simply by clicking the re-partition (like @Rohitdahiya adviced you to) without a PIT file checked under "PIT" would brick your i9000.

When I tried to flash CM 10.2 the first time – at that time RC1 was the newest version – I was asked to flash it a second time, which I did. To be precise, the following message was shown:
This ROM uses an incompatible partition layout
You /data will be wiped upon installation
Run this update.zip again to confirm install
This message hasn’t been shown again since then. I flashed CM 10.1.3 again and tried to flash 10.2 a second time, but the message wasn’t shown again.
Going back to CM 10.1.3 worked without any problem.
------------------------------------------
Now I have CM 10.2 on my phone and it starts normally
I flashed Stock-Android 2.3.6 with Odin (v1.82). Tetakpatak, thank you for the excellent guide and the video! As written in the guide, I used "s1_odin_20100512.pit" as PIT-file.
(I executed Odin on an old computer with Windows XP 32bit, as the guide says Odin 1.82 works better with Win XP.)
Then I installed CM 10.2 over Stock-Android 2.3.6. I followed the official instructions:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_galaxysmtd?setlang=en
(I executed Heimdall on my new computer with Windows 7. Heimdall 1.4RC2 doesn’t work on Win XP. If one executes Odin and Heimdall on the same PC, I could imagine this could lead to confusion, because Odin needs the Samsung-USB-drivers and Heimdall needs WinUSB. I’m not sure if this really leads to problems. But one should keep that in mind.)
I didn’t flash CM 10.1.3 before 10.2, because I didn’t need to restore a nandroid backup previously made with CM 10.1.3. There were no important data on the phone.
Many thanks to all who gave me advice and helped my solving the problem!
Tomy
HELP MEEE
I put on TWRP 2.6.3.0 on my Nexus 5 (I used towerlroot succesfully) and i tried wiping as you should, i noticed i loaded an old twrp so i quickly powerd off my Nexus5.

This is the forum for the original Galaxy S, not the Nexus 5, sorry mate
However I think your problem can be fixed by doing a full data/cache wipe so it might be worth a shot
Flash Boot.Img. This might solve the bootloop!
I think, You just need to flash the boot.img (available in the Cynogen Bundle Zip Folder) after installing Cynogen Mod. Me too got stuck on the animation part for a long time. Then I found out this:
CyanogenMod builds for endeavoru currently do NOT support any bootloader version number below: HBOOT 1.28. As the device is S-ON (security-on bootloader), for a working installation you must extract the boot.img from the installer zip and run fastboot flash boot boot.img from fastboot mode.

Hi fellow blackers,
My optimus black was on Nova Rom 2.2 v8:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1161015
And I flashed it to v20n:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1441901
I followed the instructions specifically these two before proceeding with the zip install.
1. Wipe Data/Cache (if not wiped, might cause problem)
2. Advanced > Wipe Dalvik Cache (same as data/cache, might cause problem)
After flashing, I can't seem to install any app from Market. It says that I have insufficient space on device.
So did some searching (google and here on XDA):
Here are their suggestions:
1. Install Marketfix - unfortunately, I can't install this because it is already saying I have insufficient space.
2. Clear market cache - after clearing (cache and data), I still says insufficient space
3. Uninstall market update - Going to settings - Application - manage application then selecting Market, I don't see any uninstall button. Just Force close, cancel and clear cache, clear data..
4. Finally I saw knzo's supposedly fix for this: Something to do with file system (nova is on EXT4 while stock is on EXT3)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1212370&highlight=insufficient
I wasn't able to try option 1 because the file was removed on all file sharing sites.
Options 2 and 3 - restore factory settings isn't working. The phone is not doing anything after I click Erase everything. It just hangs
Any other suggestions?
Try reflash ROM with wipe all data and cache in CWM including dalvik cash and formating partitions in "mounts&storage".
Or this!
Try wipe cache and dalvik cache...worked for me
hmm pardon me, but how do I boot into recovery? I tried powering the device on while holding volume down (also tried up and G button) but it didnt reboot into recovery.

Since I can;t install anything (rom manager etc.), I think I needed to do what you advised.
I was able to flash the stock then started up from there

Hello,
I'm not gonna panic, as I think Ive not bricked my phone YET.
Here is what I have done, I have a GALAXY S I9000.
Have been using it for quite some time now. 2 years ago, I have flashed it with - hardcore's kernel with the ClockworkMod Recovery - using Odin.
Today I decided to give Cyanogenmod a go, followed the steps here. - http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S:_Full_Update_Guide
Since I have the hardoce's kernel, I skipped this Installing the ClockworkMod Recovery - and moved on to - Flashing CyanogenMod.
I will go step by step from here.
Download the latest version of CyanogenMod.
Optional: Download the Google Apps for the device.
Place the CyanogenMod update.zip file on the root of the internal memory.
Optional: Place the Google Apps .zip on the root of the internal memory also.
Boot into the ClockworkMod Recovery.
Once the device boots into the ClockworkMod Recovery, use the side volume buttons to move around, and either the power button or the trackball to select.
Select the option to Wipe data/factory reset.
Then select the option to Wipe cache partition.
Select Install zip from sdcard.
done these, no problem so far.
[*]Select Choose zip from sdcard.
when I chose this, phone rebooted, it was so fast something may have come up and I didnt see.
Now I am stuck in a boot loop:
- Galaxy S I9000 samsung screen comes up, goes away for a second, comes up again.
- A page with code appearing from the bottom comes up really fast ( logo in the middle changes quickly) then it disappears.
- whole thing starts again.
UPDATE: I got a picture of the fast screen that comes up. : http://localhostr.com/files/b5NzFRy/2012-08-27 05.07.32.jpg
Some observations.
- I can go into download mode when opening it with the key combo.
- loop only stops when I unplug the battery
I need advice on what caused this and how to fix this, please help me.

are you not able to get into recovery? If only download than you need to get back to GB and than do a progressive update from GB to ICS to JB
Flash it again. From what I've heard, it only flashes the kernel the first time.
I had the same problem today with CM7 today. Just reboot in recovery and flash again cm zip, form there on everything is gonna run smooth!

Installation Procedure for CM9
If you have CWM Recovery
Copy both zip files int internal SDCARD
Boot into recovery
Do a full wipe (data/factory,cache, dalvik)
Install zip from sdcard
Choose zip from sdcard
Select the ROM
You will get boot loop
Again boot into recovery
Install the same zip file one more time
Install google app
Do a full wipe again (data/factory,cache,dalvik)
Reboot your phone
Enjoy...
Hi,
I had the same pb coming from a GB
I think this pb is very common
1) DON'T WORRY !
2) Unplug the battery when bootlooping
3) Put the SGS in Recovery Mode (the CWM's version has changed)
4) Select the CM .zip and flash it AGAIN
5) When it's done, reboot system
This time, everything shoot be OK
Just be carefull with your IMEI (always have a backup of EFS folder !)

Anyone have a trick yet for CM 10.1 v.22 Nightly, I keep getting a bootloop on all their versions except the original one. This is so frustrating because I have to keep going back to stock and then update to ICS.

Same here, after the Samsung and CM logos, and splash animation, it says :
"Encryption unsuccessful.
Encryption was interrupted and can't complete. As a result, the data on your phone is no longer accessible.
To resume using your phone, you must perform a factory reset...."
After I tap Reset phone, it goes to CWM recovery.
Do the factory reset and the same thing occured in loop.
I came from JVU and CF root.

Hi,
I had the same pb coming from a GB
I think this pb is very common
1) DON'T WORRY !
2) Unplug the battery when bootlooping
3) Put the SGS in Recovery Mode (the CWM's version has changed)
4) Select the CM .zip and flash it AGAIN
5) When it's done, reboot system
This time, everything shoot be OK
Just be carefull with your IMEI (always have a backup of EFS folder !)

Just plug out the battery and flash again on cwm recovery.

I have been getting error messages ("unfortunately, android.process.acore has stopped") and have concluded that I need to ROM my phone.
See post here http://androidforums.com/huawei-ide...ss-acore-has-stopped-working.html#post5803220
and here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2227732&goto=newpost
The problem is that I can't even run Titanium Backup now (it immediately crashes) and the Titanium directory is empty (meaning it had not been running nightly backups as I thought it was).
What should I do now. It occurred to me that I could ROM without "factory reset" and "wipe cache" just to try running Titanium Backup. If that works then I could ROM with "factory reset" and "wipe cache".
Does that make sense? Do you have a better suggestion?
Galaxy S GT-I9000
Android 4.1.2
Cyanogen Mod 10.0.0
I managed to copy all the files off my phone (internal SD card and External SD card). It looks like I won't be able to do a Titanium Backup. Will these files be helpful in restoring data.
unfortunately android keyboard aosp has stopped
No this is really frustrating. I did Factory Reset and Wipe Cache.
I went into Recovery and Rom'ed CyanogenMod (cm-10.0.0-galaxysmtd.zip) and GApps (http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip).
Now when I try to use my phone I get
"unfortunately android keyboard aosp has stopped".
I'm really stuck! :-O

I'm sorry I have read just now that you did reset all because we could try something, but given your current situation I advise you to be born again smartphone.
then:
Factory Reset, Wipe Cache and Wipe dalwik
with odin install GINGERBREAD (THE LAST STOCK FOR YOUR COUNTRY)
root with cf-root
now from the recovery install the ROM of your choice
This is the only way to definitely eliminate all the problems of your device

Can you give me some more specific guidance on how to do that for a GT-I9000. I opened up Odin and did some Google searching but I still don't understand what to do next.
Do you mean this?
Instructions - ODIN (long)
- Follow these instructions to the letter. Do not touch any buttons or checkboxes that are not listed below to touch!
- Unzip the attached CF-Root-xxx-vX.X.zip
- (USB) Disconnect your phone from your computer
- Start ODIN
- Click the PDA button, and select CF-Root-xxx-vX.X.tar
>->->-[* Question: does that refer to CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KPA-v5.2-CWM5.zip which is at http://download.chainfire.eu/133/ *]
- Put your phone in download mode
- (USB) Connect the phone to your computer
- Make sure repartition is NOT checked
- Click the START button
- Wait for the phone to reboot
- Done (if it took you more than 30 seconds, you need practise!)

How do I "Put [my] phone in download mode"?
Does this just mean that I can copy files from my PC to a directory on my phone?
I can get into Recovery.
I finally found the "Recovery / Advanced / Wipe Dalvik Cache" fixed the ASOP Keyboard problem.
Hey guys,
First time post here. I've looked through the similar threads and I don't think any relate to my problem.
My issue is that after flashing Resurrection Remix ROM (which i believe i have followed the correct procedure) and reboot, all i am rewarded with is that the phone boots into the "downloading...do not turn off target" screen. ie i flash, reboot, and it goes to the download green android.
The obvious question is, what am i doing wrong?
To help you guys answer i'll list my processes below as i do them at the same time:
My phone is a Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-I9305. Android Version 4.1.2. Original stock firmware is installed on the phone
All files were downloaded through the links provided at

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1815285
1. Rooted phone through Odin.
2. Flashed CWM through Odin.
3. Downloaded the ROM and the GAPPS zip files and transferred files onto external SD card.
4. Entered CWM.
a. wipe data/factory reset
b. install zip from sd card>choose zip from sdcard>installed the ROM.
At this point it all goes well and gets to "Install from sdcard complete.
c. install zip from sd card>choose zip from sdcard>installed the GAPPS.
At this point it all goes well and gets to "Install from sdcard complete.
d. advanced>wipe dalvik cache
Dalvik Cache wiped.
e. advanced>Fix Permissions
Fixing Permissions....Done.
f. wipe cache partition
Cache Wipe Complete.
g. reboot system
And low and behold, it boots into the "downloading...do not turn off target screen".
So. Questions are:
- is this ROM compatible with the GT-I9305? (im 99% sure it is)
- If it is, what am i doing wrong?
Please help guys, I am having the same problems with other ROMS. I DONT WANT SAMSUNG STOCK POO!
Thanks in advance.

Hmm.. Please try something like that: when your phone is showing "downloading... bla bla bla" press and hold power button+home button (together) for some time. This should reboot your phone normally. It seems like your recovery is rebooting your phone into download mode (needed for odin).
Try rebooting before installing GApps .
Other usual suspect is you are trying to install the wrong file for a different phone or file is faulty .

Hey guys..thanks heaps for your replies...I have fixed my issue!Lol just carelessness on my end...whilst looking through my original downloads, although not a 100% sure, it looks as if I downloaded and flashed the wrong cf-root package..I think I used the i9300 instead of i9350...so I started from the beginning and used the correct one and multiple ROMs have now been successfully flashed and trying them out thanks all
I have successfully flashed @shinobisoft's latest CM11 build and it runs fine. However, I wanted to do a "clean" install. I used philz recovery to install the new ROM. Prior to install, i used the clean up for new ROM install option and let it run through. To be sure everyhthing was "clean", I also wiped dalvik, cache, and even user media. I also formatted everything EXCEPT external SD, as that is where the .zips are located for install.
I installed ROM and gapps "modular" as well a chrome add-on, and rebooted phone.
When ROM loaded, I was greeted by the "choose language" screen, which is what i expected to see. I let it "settle" (Galaxy S2 experience) for about 15 minutes or so before I touched anything. When I went to complete setup, my wifi was already connected and the phone was linked to my account. It was using Apex launcher and the settings I used prior to updating.
What am I NOT wiping/formatting prior to installation?

Sounds like /data isn't getting wiped or formatted.

One other thing... Have you set up Google to track your installed apps/etc? If so, Google will automatically restore them.

I did a full wipe for the initial install. But for the newest build i wiped system only and flashed on top of the previous build. I can do a full wipe again and reinstall the newest build to see if it corrects my issues. But i can assure you i wiped everything when i installed the previous build.

Umm... I'm seen a bunch of references in your posted log that refer to the old sdcard path ( as in stock, /storage/external_SD. New path is : /storage/sdcard1 ). This is telling me that you did NOT format your /system and or /data partition when you installed CM for the first time. Obviously the only way to remedy this is to do a fresh installation following the instructions I posted in the OP.

I changed the "auto restore" setting so it won't automatically install my apps and tried another "clean" install with the same results. It's almost like I'm restoring from a previous back up! I made sure to wipe and format everything twice just to be certain. Installed only CM and gapps zips, wiping dalvik and cache before booting system. My result was the same as previous..... Choose language.... WiFi connects, and my settings restore.... I am NEVER asked to login to my Google or Cyanogen account(s)......
I'm about to back up and wipe everything, use fastboot to format the partitions? Ideas? Thoughts? Suggestions?
Perhaps restore my "rooted factory ROM" from TWRP back up and start from there? Or restore from .kdz?
Maybe try a factory reset from Settings after installing? Kind of a long shot but that's what I had to do after flashing back to stock when nothing seemed to have changed ...
