[Q] how to get rid of this .... - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

need help
i don't know what i
should do.
So my Problem is I'm getting a wrong recovery when I reboot to it. It's
not the one I had before. My previos recovery was twrp . i flashed the
newest validus Rom for xperia z and it worked( lollipop). But i noticed a bug so i
wanted to get back but it didn't worked because the recovery was
gone. So i tried to install one via some apps .it didn't worked . I only got
a recovery with stock options nothing else. Then I flashed back to
stock 4.4.2 and from that to cm 11 with lightning kernel ( lightning
kernel has twrp which is the one which used before).It worked out fine
but then i tried to flash the resurretion remix it worked but as i wanted
to Boot into twrp to flash Google apps i couldn't because this
cyanogen mod recovery was there again, out oft nowhere . i searched
for hours but couldn't find a solution. How do i get rid oft this recovery
and can get the Team win recovery back on lollipop.
Help would be very appreciated.( sorry for gramma errors, english is
not my mothertongue,i know it's anoying to read that all the time )

[Q] Cannot install any custom roms. Phone acting weird

Hey guys. I've been using CyanogenMod on my Galaxy S for quite a long time. Few days ago my battery died and phone wouldn't pass the CyanogenMOD logo. I've decided to go back to stock rom and then upgrade to one of the new roms.
So I flashed the stock rom using Odin 3.07, rooted, went to recovery mode and tried to flash: Mackay ROM, Beast ROM ( black and white as well as beastxl), Avatar ROM, Slim Bean, Tsunami, CyanogenMOD but none of the above worked.
It starts the installation and after few seconds phone restarts itself and gets stuck on new boot logo.
The only thing that gets installed is the CWM which won't let me do the factory reset, wipe data, wipe dalvik cache etc. Keeps saying can't mount /data, /cache, /system.
The only time I can do factory reset is when I install stock rom.
I only succeeded installing Franzy ROM once but after reboot gets stuck on boot logo.
Sometimes even the stock ROM is giving me issues like process com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly (does it for dialer, calculator, market, launcher)
Another weird thing is that even when I go back to stock rom and open up for instance a picture with bright background or web browser I can see transparent battery and CyanogemMod in the middle of the screen even tho phone's not charging and running on stock rom not CyanogenMod.
I think I've tried everything from fixing permissions, flash and re-partition using Odin and 512 pit file.
Even rang my Mom like advised in xda's video, didn't help either
Is there anything else I can try to get my phone in "shape"?
Any suggestions?

Thanks for your reply. Installing CM 9 worked but trying to install CM 10 throws up this error:
assert failed: run_program("tmp/updater.sh") == 0
E: Error in sdcard/cm-10.1.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
Flash this one :
http://get.cm/get/3Fb
then install this one :
http://get.cm/get/9aJ
Thanks for your help. CM 9.1.0 installs fine, same error for 10.1.2 :/

did you tried to install other costum roms , like slimbean ?
There MIGHT be a problem with your internal SD card. Slight chance :/

Yes I did and only Franzys installed successfully but then stopped working after phone reboot.

I think that might be the case. I get encryption unsuccessful with my sdcard in and CWM doesn't see any files with sdcard out.
I found an article here on forum that explains how to use your external sdcard as the internal one. Will give it a try and see if it works.
For now I don't mind using CM 9.1.
Thanks for your help guys and let me know if you have any other suggestions.

Did you try to flash only the rom or flash the stock rom?

Custom roms and stuck on splash/boot animation (SOLVED)

Hello!, my device is GT-i9305 and i seem to have a problem of some sort. (I have had three devices before this and installed lots of custom roms, but never have i encountered something like this)
Whenever i try to install a custom rom (omnirom/pacrom/cyanegenmod) i get stuck in the splash/boot screen animation, but when i flash back to stock rom (4.4.4) using odin it loads up and everything works like its supposed to.
I have tried using TWRP and CWM-recovery. (With CWM i can get omnirom to boot, but i wont be able to dial or use mobile-data etc. (Seems like my efs files or something are missing) and i also get some error message about androidcore or somethinglikethat.
Most common fixes for this in the forums are to wipe dalvic and cache after installing. Which i have done + some other odd "fixes" i found.
I am really baffled. Whats wrong?
Did you flash TWRP 2.8.7.0? That recovery is buggy and does not work. You have to stay on 2.8.5.0 for the moment. There are people already trying to fix the faulty recovery. CWM won't get any updates anymore. It does still work but you might come across some ROMs which won't work with CWM.
To start all over again with no issues: flash 4.4.4 Stock, install TWRP 2.8.5.0 and you're good to go

That totaly fixed it! Thank you sooooo much, no more sleepless nights because of this.

Q&A Cyanogenmod 12.1 (unofficial) gone wrong

Hey guys,
need a little help on this one.
I' ve downloaded the cyanogenmod from winx and I was trying to do a clean ROM-install on my phone (gt-i9305)
I've allready tried to install it with TWRP, Phillz and Clockworkmod. The recoveryinstall of these mods worked fine using odin but after that i wiped all data and dalviks, etc and installed the rom along with the gapps.
The problem I'm having is that it seems to install fine (even factory resetted it after installation) but i can't get past the boot animation screen.
Is there any fix on this or is the phone dead from now on.
Grtz,
C
update on topic.
tried to flash the stockrom again and it didn't complete so now i have the message:
Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies | try again.
next update:
installed stockrom using odin and it worked, reinstalled twrp and installed cyanogenmod again.
This time with success. Expected a little help from you guys but eventually reading through forum and watching hours of youtube managed the problem just fine.

Help please :( TWRP (Recovery) to Normal Recovery

I'm sorry to bother you all with this silly problem but because i'm kinda new in this i need a bit help with the recovery.
So the problem is that i had used before the normal recovery for Xperia E1, but several days ago i tried to install the CM-11 build from Caio99BR for what i'm really pleased.
So after installing the CM-11 from him my recovery switch to TWRP but the problem is that if i try to install the (KillaMade-ROM or the Illumination-ROM) after install and after the Sony logo i'm getting just white screen on what i can't do anything :/ .
So iv'e would like to back up somehow from the TWRP recovery to the normal one where i can use these ROMS.
Download the kernel with Philz recovery from XDA. Download Rashr from play store and flash this kernel throught it. sorry for bad English.
