Hi,
Im on stock jellybean with an old philz recovery(initially added by flashing a zip)....i had planned to try out the new Mokee rom by Herna with split window which is a kitkat release. for this i tried to update my recovery to the latest by flashing the zip file from http://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition. .Unfortunately i went into bootloop .So i flashed my backup and everything was back to normal. Does the link give recovery +kernel or is it a plain recovery. Did i miss anything.. i would love to try out kitkat . Could anyone help me out with this issue..thanks!

Hi,
Try reverting back to CWM 5. As far as i know, CWM 6 was made only with the intention of flashing Android 4.4 Kit Kat builds. Do post your result. You can find the CWM 5 link below. Hope I helped
CWM 5.0.2.6 fix for Galaxy Ace S5830
Hello
I'm trying to flash PacROM 4.4 and I'm encountering a problem with "set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed".
As I searched its because of old recovery tools, but I'm already uusing CWM 4.4.1 and I cannot find out what to do.
The way I tried to flash ROM :
1. Flash stock .254 ROM
2. Install TowelRoot and CWM
3. Flash with CWM 4.4.1 and this is where error come up (kernel 207 works)
Thank you for help
edit: I managed to install VANIR ROM, and later with the same method I managed to install PAC ROM too. I used CWR not Philz.
Your problem was most likely related to your recovery, which was probably outdated.
CM based ROMs sometimes have issues with older versions of CWM.
The reason why it worked after installing Vanir is probably because of Vanir's kernel which includes a more recent version of CWM.
Anyway, glad you got it working.
Followed the tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note/development/rom-resurrection-remix-lp-5-2-0-t2982773
but failed.
Tried different versions of CWM ... got stuck with Status 7 error.
Later on, I also thought of trying TWRP as mentioned in the above link.
The phone goes into bootloop...does not start-up but yea, i can go into the CWM Recovery.I tried flashing TWRP over CWM.It did not replace the existing cwm.
Current CWM recovery on my phone is PhilZ-cwm6-ZSLO2-OZS-5.00.5-signed
Tried to flash this Resurrection_Remix_LP_v5.4.5-20150519-i9100 but got status 7 error which means i used a wrong recovery i think..
Please tell me which version of CWM should i use or maybe TWRP.
and also a stable Resurrection ROM ..
And which G Apps should i use ...i have the latest one (5-27-15) ?_?
Am i suppose to flash a stock firmware all over again? Or can i just fix my phone by flashing the remix 5.4.5?
Links would be helpful ... Thanks
I have only 2 ROMS downloaded on my PC as of now resurrection 5.4.5 and 5.4.0(stable) so is it possible to fix my phone using these?
With your current recovery flash raw kernel for cm11 or cm12.. Then boot into new recovery and flash the RR ROM.
Ok!
Flashed the new kernel successfully from the below link.
R10 CM12.1
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397000
but now when i flash the Resurrect Remix 5.4.5 .. I get an error "Status 7" - Installation aborted.
*still stuck at bootloop* *can only go into recovery*
what to do?
Did you reboot into the new recovery? Also make sure you have good download.. It could be a broken zip too. I still don't get what bootloop you are talking about.
Hi all!
I flashed my recovery to TWRP and ever since then, I always get stuck in bootloop no matter what custom ROM I try. Flashing back to stock rom via ODIN works.
It's been a while since I've tinkered with custom ROMs so I may be missing something. Any ideas on where to start?

Hi,
Which phone ? i9305 or i9300 ?
Which version of TWRP do you use ?
You should try latest version of TWRP (2.8.7.3).
Or try Philz touch Recovery 6.48.4 or 6.59.
1.Repeat ODIN step to stock rom
2.Root the phone by kingroot (as it's doesn't required pc)
3.After rooting, Download Cwm rom manager
4.Install Cwm by selecting your phone model and etc
5.flash it directly from the apps
6.now you can flash any rom ( please backup your system for your safety)
I recently started flashing custom roms. The most common trouble that comes is how to get back to stock rom. Anyone please give a detailed procedure how to get back to stock rom from flashing stock recovery to flashing stock rom...
Thank you

1.Download the stock rom from letv forum
2.If you r on Codeworkx TWRP, install Chinese TWRP by ycjeson
3.Then install the stock zip file (19s). First time you may get error, flash again the same file.
4.It asks whether to install stock rom, give yes.
5.Now your phone will be with stock rom and recovery. with bootloader locked.
If this helped ..hit thanks
Stock Recovery given by rishab rao :

Stock Rom :
https://devs-lab.com/download-letv-official-stock-rom.html#Le_2_Qualcomm_Stock_ROM
rename the downloaded stock rom to update.zip and then place it in the root directory of internal storage
flash stock recovery and click the update option
you'll get an error but try again
That's it!
Better take a twrp back up soon after you flash the stock rom just in case.
