I have safestrap 3.72 TWRP v. 2.7.0.0
Every time I try to install a rom, i hear the piano noises and the screen stays black when booting it,
All I want is a rom that will work with 3.72 because currently there is no OS or Rom so my phone is unusable.
Please help and thank you very much!! :crying::crying:
So I was able to install firekat. However, im only able to install roms on the slots rather than the stock rom slot.
whenever I try to install a rom on the stock slot, it says no os found.
please help

Sounds like you may have wiped stock rom slot without installing a ROM afterwards...safestrap is just a workaround so you always have to have a ROM on stock slot...weird that a ROM slot is working ok though
Try restoring a backup to stock slot if you have one otherwise you might want to odin flash NC2 to get your system back.

when you say install a backup, is there a particular file that I need to install in the stock rom slot?
Whenever I try to put a rom in that slot, the device says "no os found"

I meant restore a backup from safestrap. Restore should be one of the options on the main screen in safestrap recovery. If you made a backup of stock slot before you wiped/flashed it try restoring that backup...otherwise you'll probably have to use Odin to reflash NC2

cm 10.2.1 works great in rom slot 2 on my droid4, but not in the stock slot. Is there something different I have to do?
I activated the stock slot, did a Factory Reset, installed cm and gapps. It boots, shows the safestrap splash screen, then goes to a black screen with the backlight on. Nothing after that.
I can connect with adb and see the logs, there are repeated heap dumps from something crashing, but I don't see a line saying what. It appears to be trying to start AndroidRuntime and dalvik (same thing?) over and over. Does this give anyone a clue?
I also tried wiping /system after a factory reset, but it just hangs on the black screen, no change.
Before this, I had the latest OTA in the stock slot, and I was running eclipse rom 1.0.8 (or something) in slot 1. I am able to restore my safestrap backup of the stock slot and the stock rom still works.
You can only safely install Cyanogen in ROM-Slot 1. Never try to install to the stock ROM slot. Slots 2 and 3 are touch and go. It's best to just stick with ROM-Slot 1.
If you've already installed it in the stock ROM slot, then you'll likely have to restore your phone using SBF/fastboot files and start the whole process over from a stock system. :\

The note on the cyanogen site says "Builds older than 09/01/2013 must be installed on rom-slot1." I've read threads where people are using cm and aokp in the stock slot, so I thought it would work.
Any idea why it can't work in the stock slot? Safestrap seems to create image files for virtual filesystems of system, cache, and userdata which are obviously just imitating the stock partitions. I guess you need to bypass that logic, so can I just tweak the fstab or something? I'm curious what other magic safestrap is doing (or the cm/aokp roms) that needs to be adjusted for stock.
Nevermind, I figured out my mistake. I was on an old version of safestrap. Upgraded to safestrap-maserati-3.65, flashed latest nightly cm11 to stock slot, and it works. Great job cyanogenmod!

In what recovery did you do nandroid backup? If it was TWRP then just boot in it and open Restore.
And system.ext4.win.md5 is not flashable, you use it in recovery.
Installed safestrap finally. Now before I install any ROMS do I have to do this step first "Activate: Makes the chosen ROM-slot the “current” one, where almost all of the features of TWRP affect that slot. This will also be the ROM that is booted"
After thats done then the custom rom gets installed in slot 2 and then when the phone reboots can I tell which slot to use ?

If you're on kit Kat it's not adviseable to use ROM slots. Best to stick to the stock slot
So reinstall the new rom to stick slot instead and the phone will boot right up instead of me hitting continue on the safestrap recovery during the initial boot.
I thought install new rom on different slot so if anything goes wrong I can still boot up the stock rom..
ROM slots are a work in progress according to the OP for SS. They do not work in SS 3.75 if you're on KK.
i`m on KK and rom slots work for me ,I just created one rom slot and work, but I prefer the stock slot
not everyone will run the rom slots

That is interesting. I've been hesitating to flash because I didn't want to use my stock slot.
GT-I8910N
TWRP 2.8 installed as 2.6 failed to update binary.
That issue resolved, still I get no sim card detected on any custom rom installed.
Each time I restore to a stock Samsung rom, everything works perfectly again.
I've tried Slim, CM, Omni, different rom versions.
All give me no sim detected.
Any ideas please, TIA
Seems like a Baseband compatibility issue..
I tried an alternative baseband & it made the phone go super slow, any suggestions please, TIA.

Try another.
Then reflash the rom.
Doesn't the rom overwrite the baseband with the included version?
Depends on the rom.
Ok so I need to find a ROM that doesn't overwrite baseband, this should be fun
Thanks BTW.
Trying to to describe my problem: original ROM worked perfectly, CM11.0 for S3 Mini worked perfectly, CM12.1 for S3 Mini worked perfectly. Before the sale it, I would like put back original ROM and before flash over Odin I start made factory reset in phone menu and after what the phone does not recognize the SIM card. I tried falshing over TWRP recovery CM12.1 again, all working, but-no SIM card, I tried flashing older CM11.0- all working excluded SIM card. Then I tried flash over Odin original ROM back, but flashing failed-reason modem.bin fail. After the failure stock ROM flashing phone is not booted and the only option is flash CM11.0 or CM 12.1 again and and to start the phone setting again. I tried my SIM- card other phones- not working, no SIM card, and I tried over good working SIM cards in my phone-nor working, no SIM card. Is it possible to get broke at one time phone SIM card slot and Sim card itself. Some people say that these errors improve the original ROM, but I can not flash back stock ROM, because Odin failed some modem.bin reason. Can anybody help me resolve modem.bin error and flash back stock ROM?
I reflashed stock after a TWRP backup sent me into a bootloop and now my phone can't recognize the SIM or connect to Wifi. Can somebody please help?
Edit: I'm not sure why this worked, but I fixed this by trying to flash the Havoc custom ROM. The ROM wouldn't boot, but when I reflashed stock afterwards, the problem was fixed.
was your imei intact before you reflashed back to stock

I'm not sure if you're referring to when I reflashed stock and had problems or when I reflashed stock after trying to flash Havoc and fixed it. I can't answer either way because both times I reflashed I was stuck in a bootloop, so I couldn't check the IMEI.

Since everything works when you have the Android One ROM installed, try backing up the EFS with that ROM installed and restoring on the ROM you want to use.
No wifi after flashing ROM
I had the same thing happen after flashing a ROM. In my case, it was a repeatable error. I reflashed the modem partition from the stock modem after flashing the custom ROM and everything started working again.
