I have rooted my phone and installed the CWM ROM Manager app, but every time I try and reboot in recovery, or install ROM from SD card in the menu the phone restarts shows the android and then crashes, I then turn on the phone agian and it boots into 'Android System recovery <3e>'
What am I doing wrong?
On this phone you can install cwm using ROM manager. You will need to use a kernel that has cwm recovery. Eg. Philz kernel.

Thanks nokiamodeln91, I used PhilZ-cwm6-XXLTA-ATL-5.15.0.tar.md5 and that seems to have worked, for Nightowl-cm13-beta3-n7000 ROM.......though I do get a yellow warning triangle under the Samsung logo when I turn the phone on, but it boots up into Nightowl after a little delay.
Though I'm now having a little trouble finding a Gapps that works with this ROM, if someone could point me in the right direction?
I tried making one with on The Open GApps Project ARM/6.0/full, but it didn't work (should have taken a note of the error message), and then tried "BaNkS-Dynamic-GApps-6.x.x-10-20-15" that one installed but keeped looking a error message about apps that had stopped working.
OK just tried to install the micro Gapps recommended on the [ROM][CM13][Marshmallow][Android 6.0.1] NightOwl 20160510 thread
install, then when the phone boots up I get
Unfortunately Set up wizard hast stopped

popping up one after the other.
May be you should try a clean install on ROM followed by micro open gapps in one go. Bigger gapps won't install due to space limitations of system partition.

I had the same problem. Solution is provided in http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/help/problems-gapps-cm13-t3258915 and that worked for me:
Go to Settings, Apps , select "Show system apps" in menu at the top , scroll to and tap "Setup wizard", "Permissions" and turn all permissions on (Contacts and Phone).
This may take a while as you have to do this while the error messages keep popping up. Put your gaming skills to work to benefit from those spare moments there are no error messages and you can interact with the phone.
Update: this got rid of the setup wizard messages. I still had problems with the Google play services that would not go away. In the end the solution was to wipe the entire internal SD card (/sdcard0) and not only system, cache, data. I then installed both the CM13 and GApps in one go. After the initialisation phase no error messages popped up. So the answer to the problem may also be: wipe everything (to prevent some old data files interfering with the new install) and install CM13 + GApps in one go.

so i finally decided to root my lg optimus 2x, after a few tries, i finnaly did it. so after that i went to the google play store to download the app Rom Manager, after it finished installing, i went deeper into the app (Rom Manager), and found out that i could just download and install a custom rom directly from my phone, without any pc connectivity. so i choose one that was written stable on, after the custom rom was downloaded, i clicked on the icon in the notification tap to install. there were some preferences i could choose, so i decided not to backup the files from my build-in rom. after that, the phone rebooted and my phone was showing alot of text informations, and in the background of that the Rom Manager icon was showing. after the installation was done my phone got turned off. after that i decided to turn it on (obviously), and it just got stuck at the LG logo in the beginning.
so the question is, what do, i do now? i have tried everything.

please move this to questions and answers
you should look into more what you need to know, need to do before flashing a custom rom
well, you either try flashing a Stock rom via Smartflash and if that doesn't work, you'll have to use Nvflash, but don't worry, your phone is fine, there's nothing to be afraid about.
Next time you try a rom, you migh want to root the device, install cwm, then make a backup with the app Titanium Backup, after that, you go into the cwm, wipe as needend and install the rom. Do read the guides there are about flashing, because things like this could happen if you don't know what your doing.
If you have done a Backup of your Rom you just simply click restore in cwm and everything would get back to normal, but since you didn't, you have to use Smartflash.
But anyways, if I were you, instead of using Smartflash as my first choice, this is what i would do:
1.- Download a CM7 rom (or any other rom i like) for the O2X in its page with the gapps (google apps), if you like Stable versions, then go for it.
2.- I'd put that rom in a microsd card directly from my pc and then put that microSD card on the device.
3.- I'd go into cwm by doing this: While the phone is off, you click: Volume down + Power button at the same time and wait until the secong LG logo appears before releasing them.
4.- I'd do the firsts 2 wipes it shows there: Data wipe/factory reset (as I already have a Titanium backup) and Cache partition wipe
5.- Go into "Advanced" and wipe: Dalvik cache and Battery stats.
6.- Go back and choose: "Install zip from SD card" then "Choose zip from sd card"
7.- Locate the file and apply it
After that you'll see that "lots of text information" you saw the first time, that's fine, just wait a little, after it's done simply click "Reboot system now" and wait a little bit for the Rom to charge for its first time, if everything goes fine, you'll have CM7 installed and your phone will be functional again.
If you like the Rom, then look for tutorials so you can configure it the way you want and flash the gapps.
Hope this helps you
I think that the reason you got stuck in LG logo, was because you were installing a rom that doesn't automatically convert the EXT3 partition into EXT4 or something, or maybe what you installed wasn't a rom, i don't know, just be sure to check a little more in the future Good luck!
Note: not all roms require to flash gapps, only Cyanogenmods and some others.

Hello,
I am a noob trying to install a rom with aroma installer. But now it has been stuck at the page where it says: The installation wizard has successfully installed *********. Press next to exit.
What do i do? Power off?
Is it definitely stuck? Aroma doesn't always recognise touch events very accurately, and I usually have to tap the "next" button a few times before it registers. Failing that, if it's finished installing whatever you flashed, you should be fine to reboot manually anyway.
Yes,i have tried to push the next button many times but nothing happens. It has been like this for 30 minutes now. The successfully installed text appeared very fast, a second or two maybe after the previous screen. So if it has installed the rom, it was def a fast install.
Anyway, is it safe to try to reboot, even if it was in the middle of the install? Rebot to recovery and try again?
Well, there certainly isn't anything else to be done besides rebooting. I don't know what you were trying to install - if it was a several-hundred-MB ROM, as most things that use Aroma are, you would expect it to take a while. Smaller things can be flashed very quickly. If it _did_ go wrong somewhere, there are a few things:
1. What recovery, and what version thereof, are you using?
2. Did you wipe data before using the installer?
3. Most of all, what were you trying to install? There might be some known issue with certain configurations.
I wouldn't necessarily expect a working OS when you reboot, depending on what you were trying to install and how badly things went wrong, but you should be able to get back into recovery easily enough.
Thank you for your quick reply.
1. I use the CWM recovery in this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1914394 thread, not the newest, but 5.5 something i believe.
2. Yes, wiped all data + dalvik.
3. I was trying to install rXTREME on my SGS III lte i9305.
I've rebooted now, and everything works perfect as the phone was before i tried to do the install. No brick. I also tried to flash it one more time, but stuck at the same place again. Rebooted fine at stock rom again. Maybe i should take this as a hint that someone else should be put at the steering wheel.. :laugh:
EDIT: forgot link above
Found out what the problem was.
In Aroma Installer i selected EFS backup both times. The third time i tried i did not do this. And everything went fine. Runs smooth.
my galaxy s3 international version got stuck at 30% of formatting\data partition while trying to flash s4 revolution 4.1 rom

This is I9305 forum is this your phone ??
This thread is about Aroma installer is that your problem ???
Suggest you read the basic faqs and guides first looks like from your post you are either flashing wrong rom to your phone or have hijacked a thread in the wrong forum ./

Okay, I did a ton of research on this, but when I flashed the ROM, I ended up with some major problems. I hope someone can help. Here's the deal:
Started with the stock ROM (Gingerbread 2.3.6), no overclocking
Backed up apps & data with Titanium Backup
Backed up contents of both internal and external SD card to my PC
Backed up phone to external SD card using CWM 6.0.1.2
Performed ROMwipe
Flashed odexed build, CM10_LINARO_20130118_ODEX_IRX120
Flashed DemonsBlood v8
Flashed Gapps
Rebooted
Now, the new ROM was working, but I started having trouble navigating and certain apps would force close, or I'd get messages that certain things had stopped working. Also, I could not figure out how to set up my home screens and wallpapers and settings and such the way I wanted. So I decided to go back to my stock ROM. But when I flashed my backup, the phone now acts as if it's been factory reset (although I can still boot back into CWM recovery). Also, when I download Titanium Backup, Facebook, and other apps, they force close upon launch.
I have wiped the ROM, fixed permissions, and tried again, with no success. I've copied the files I backed up to my PC back to the phone, but no joy there, either.
Ideally, I'd love to get my phone back to where it was before I attempted this - or, as a second choice, go forward and use the new ROM & Kernel, because I was pretty excited about trying it out. But I feel like I've lost a ton and now it's not working properly at all.
Can someone help me restore this? And tell me where I went wrong?
UPDATE: In CWM Recovery, I selected flash image from external SD card and selected CM10_LINARO_20130118_ODEX_IRX120, then rebooted. Now it gets stuck at the boot screen (Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G, Exclusively from T-Mobile). I tried booting into recovery, but no luck - same result, stuck at the boot screen. So I booted into HBOOT (vol down + power), got a warning about a custom ROM with a choice to reboot or proceed. Since I figured rebooting would just put me back at the boot screen, I chose to proceed. It is now showing the following:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SGH-T679
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: NO
CURRENT KERNEL: SAMSUNG !!
Then there's the android icon and underneath it says:
Downloading...
Do not turn off target!!
Sigh. Help.
Okay, I got out of ODIN mode and managed to reboot into CWM recovery. Progress! I wiped the ROM, flashed CM10_LINARO_20130118_ODEX_IRX120, SpeedyGonzalez_OC_1.5.5, and Gapps, and rebooted.
So now I'm running CM10 Linaro, Odexed, with SGK. Okay. **deep breath** The first thing I see after the boot screen is "Welcome, choose your language" and then "Unfortunately, Google Search has stopped."
OK.
Signing in with Gmail . . . (screen does not auto-rotate at this point)
Contacting Google, then again "Unfortunately, Google Search has stopped."
Completed setup, then again "Unfortunately, Google Search has stopped."
Going to Play Store to get Titanium Backup. And a few more apps.
Auto-rotate now works.
Into Titanium Backup and I get this warning: "This device's Android ID has changed. This normally happens after a device replacement or factory reset. The Android ID is the most common way for apps to identify the device. Any app that relies on it for security/licensing purposes may stop working (or need to be reconfigured) unless you restore the previous Android ID now." with a choice: Keep the new one, or restore the old one (I only have the free version, so this choice is not available).
Should I get my apps back from Play Store or Titanium Backup or both? (I now know to restore the "app only" from Titanium Backup.)
I'm going to keep plugging away at this. Any suggestions for my next steps?

i would suggest using TWRP recovery, backing up your internal, wipe cache 2x , wipe dalvik 2x , factory reset 2x, wipe rom 2x, and wipe internal 2x. then flash rom and gapps

Hello.
I have a problem with my phone: I install MIUI 6 (doesn't matter what version), I set it up with restore, it runs ok till the first manual reboot. Then it gets blocked at the black "MI"screen. Won't enter in the OS. Any methods to determine the culprit? Maybe taking a log (how to do that?) It gets kinda annoying to flash the zip again and again everytime I do a reboot.
Thank you.

I have lots of apps and it would take me ages to manually install them all. Back-up and restore from MIUI is my savior.
I also have Xposed Framework, that requires a reboot after install. That reboot works. First I thought it was xposed's fault, but I guess if it would have been that the phone won't start after the reboot it required. Same thing happens with wsm.
Don't install xposed ..
(I had same problem)
Clean install miui 6 once again

Same problem meaning your phone won't boot after a while or right after installing Xposed?
I really don't get it. For example, i just clean installed MIUI, restored the apps, installed Xposed + modules and I can do as many restarts as I want, it will boot every single time. The problem appears after a while, I guess starting tomorrow morning it will get screwed up again, although I won't install any apps or anything in the meanwhile.
