Hey there! Unfortunately Cyanogenmod 11 has had a bad reputation on the Galaxy Exhibit 4G. You're not the only one who is experiencing problems getting the ROM to run. If you can't install the ROM via recovery I can only imagine the problems you'll encounter when you do install it; constant FC, random reboots, etc. My suggestion is to try an older version of Android if you're looking for stability. My personal suggestion would be CM 10 with 2.6 kernel. I love that ROM. Anyways, here are a few things you can try.
Install different recovery versions. You can start with these ones and see which one allows you to install the ROM successfully.
CWM 6.0.4.4 http://blownco.com/index.php/doc_download/13661-cwm-6-0-4-4-exhibit
CWM 6.0.4.5 http://d-h.st/aTo
CWM 6.0.4.6 http://d-h.st/owg
CWM 6.0.4.7 http://d-h.st/tSN
TWRP 2.6.3.0 http://d-h.st/kjr
If you're able to successfully install the ROM proceed to the reboot and if you don't get any FC, reboots or whatnot you're one of the lucky ones. If you do run into issues, then wipe everything, install the rom, gapps and then this kernel. http://d-h.st/kha
That's pretty much all you can do now. Development here has waned, so I'm not sure the issues will ever get fixed. Good luck!

You should try out cwm 6.0.4.7. just got released. I got it with no probs. running the kernel jorge007 has posted. Build number 1/23 with stable 1.4ghz oc

Weird problem when flashing CM7 Help!

Hi,
I have many times tried to flash CM7, but always happens weird thing.
I have stock 2.3.5 XXJVS with Semaphore 2.5.0 kernel
1.I boot into CWM
2.I wipe cache then wipe data/factory reset then i go advanced and choose wipe Dalvik cache
3.Choose .zip from sd card
4.I choose update-cm7.1.0-GalaxyS-signed.zip
5.My phone flashes it
6.It reboots
7.Normal Galaxy S GT-i9000 then Galaxy S
Cyanogen Mod
8.It goes to recovery and posts text very fast then reboots again
9.It repeats everything what it does from section 7.
Im very confused so please help!
Have you tried flashing it again?
redo step 3 and onwards,
sometimes you just need to flash twice.
It seems like a corrupted download... Are you flashing from internal or external? Have you mounted before?
i tried to flash from internal
What version of CWM recovery do you have? Maybe flash a different ROM just to update CWM, and then flash the rom you want?
I had the same, or atleast a similar problem whilst trying to flash CM9. I fixed it by flashing the rom again.
You also might want to redownload the file incase it's corrupt.
i have CWM 5.0.2.7 and i downloaded the CyanogenMod file again so i try to flash it again
Any luck with your efforts this far?
yes, i succesfully installed CM9 about 3 months ago.
I'm not sure which build it was but it was the newest build

RemICS-JB

Hi I have WEUI v1.0 installed on Galaxy I9000 with the baseband i9000XXJVT
I am planning to install the [ROM][4.1.1] [1.0.1] RemICS-JB (Team RemICS)
Is there any special way or just the regular way of putting in the SD card and then going into CWM and flashing it.
Please advise on this thanks
I did this just last night, from an I9000XXJVU baseband.
Installing was a bit of an issue for me, from recovery i had to wipe user data, cache and dalvik then flash the rom, as the instructions say, then it wouldnt boot. Went back into recovery and wiped the user data, cache and dalvik again and then the phone booted and ran the RemICS-JB 4.1.1 [1.0.1]. Once it was running it all worked fine EXCEPT i had no cellular network connection at all, after leaving the phone on for over an hour.
I didnt get a chance to verify if the wifi worked as i didnt have any access points available.
Good luck amd hope all goes well for you
From GB its important, to flash Rom after all wipes and reboot recovery ... then you get the right cmw .. and then flash again
the JB-Rom ...
It´s the same way like form GB to ICS ... flash and reboot recovery ... without reboot recovery you can`t boot
hope it works ..
Alright so here's what i have done
I first flashed to [ROM]MIUI.4.I9000 it actually turned off the recovery. Then installed the recovery app from playstore.
Then flashed the CM 10 and before flashing it automatically installed recovery V5 on phone.
Then I flashed the REMICS and this installed recovery V6 on phone.
I have to say this is the best ROM i have ever seen the speed is awesome and very nice features on the JB.
There's one thing I have noticed some of the graphics animations are not working as I have seen on the other JB phones.
However still this ROM is brilliant and I am planning to get a tab running with JB.
Thanks for your inputs on this.

Upgrading cm 7.2 to cm9

Hi everyone,
Newbie posting here.. I've had my share of flashing Roms a few times (say 4 or 5 times) but i stuck with cm 7.2 when they released the stable mod for the i9000.
Now i see that the cm9 stable mod has been released and i definitely want to try that out however, I'm not sure on how to go about it and I don't want to do anything stupid. Don't get me wrong, i've tried reading around through different sites and forums but all the mix and match methods of flashing and installing has gotten me confused..
My main question is, how do i flash to cm9 from cm 7.2? naturally i have cwm installed and can boot into cwm recovery. Am on the XXJVK baseband with the pawitp kernel. Not sure if i have to donwload new drivers (since the base ROM is going to change)...
Do i just place the zip file for the cm9 mod in the internal sd storage? could you guys help me out and let me know if this process is correct:
1) save zip file in internal storage (both cm9 and gapps)
2) do a nandroid backup
3) boot into recovery
4) wipe data and dalvik cache
5) install the package
6) wipe data and dalvik cache
7) install gapps
8) reboot
Once it boots up, i'm assuming it'll be running cm9 already.. could you guys help me out and let me know if this procedure's correct? sorry for the noob question but i'd rather just make sure and ask you guys first.
thanks in advance guys! cheers and more power!

wipe date
wipe cache
wipe delvik cache
then flash rom nd gapps
wipe cache nd delvik cache again.. good luck..
Best and most reliable way to do this is flashing through stock rom via Odin. Then flashing kernel with CWM Recovery via Odin. And only then flash CM9 via CWM.
thanks for the quick reply guys. will try it out tonight and update this post. hope all goes well.
cheers!

and if u want u can try chimera rom from team passion.. it s combination of cm9 and AOKP.. It s stable and fast..
took me less than 10 minutes to flash to cm9 and it's as snappy as i thought it was. now to fix up everything and check if everything's okay.
so far, wifi and network signal are working fine and dandy. might just have a go at that chimera rom.

[Q] Status 7 error on installing CM 10.1

Hi fellows,
I need your guidance and expert advice in resolving a situation, I have ran into recently. I was trying to install CM10.1 on my brother's galaxy Note GT-N7000 international version which was running official ICS 4.0.4.
Since, I had experience in installing different ROMs on my Galaxy S2, Nexus 7 and Xperia Arc so I was not worried about it being a big deal. So, I followed the procedure described in this page http://techgoneinsane.blogspot.com/2012/08/installing-cm10-on-galaxy-note-n7000.html?m=1 and used Odin and file from 'speedmod' to gain root access and flash CWM which was successful. Then, as planned, I tried update zip in the CWM recovery for CM10.1 nightly. But, I came across error 'Status 7' installation aborted. This was new to me, so I tried few things like 'factory reset', wipe data etc and even tried installing stock ROM ICS XXLRK which was previously installed but no avail. I tried several other ROMs like stable CM9 and other nightlies but no success. The phone is stuck on the boot Samsung logo with yellow triangle. However, I'm able to go in the recovery and download mode.
Upon doing couple of Google searches, I came to know, quite a number of people have faced this error by I couldn't understand the fix properly so can anyone of you please guide me for the solution. Thanks.
Your help will be greatly appreciated.

If you are on Speedmod's recovery (which is safe), you can try this:
1) Download the latest CM10.1 kernel and save it to your SD card.
2) Flash it in Recovery (Install zip from sdcard > choose zip from sdcard), then reboot in the new Recovery (advanced > reboot recovery).
3) Do a full wipe (even format preload and system in "mounts")
3) Flash the latest CM10.1 build
4) Flash the 4.2.2 Gapps
5) Do a data wipe / factory reset
6) Reboot
You got a yellow triangle because you flashed an unofficial kernel through Odin. To get rid of it, use TriangleAway.
Good luck!

You're welcome. Glad I could help . If you feel like it, hit the Thanks button on Chasmodo's first message in the repository (where you downloaded your CM10.1 kernel). He really deserves it. You may also want to do the same on Entropy's first post in the unofficial CM10.1 thread :good: That way, you'll show your support and appreciation :angel:.

i9305 stuck on rom booting screen after flash

Was flashing my friends i9305 and now it wont boot any rom I flash... always gets stuck on the first boot screen until I take out battery.
I flashed CWM 6.0.4.7 using odin.
I have tried flashing several roms (CM 11, CM 10.1, PACman 4.3)... Each one will flash with no errors, then when I reboot after correct GAPPS it just gets stuck on the loading screen forever and won't boot up into ROM.
Wipe data/cache, wipe dalvik, wipe system > Install rom from zip, install GAPPS from zip > reboot (even here I wipe system/data/cache - still doesnt work).
Any ideas on why it won't load up the roms....

Well I figured it out... since it was never flashed or anything before (from stock rom)... I just went into the Mounts and Storage menu, and formated /cache /system /data manually and it finally worked.
Hope that helps
