So I rooted and switched ROM's many times on my MT3g, and now that i'm trying it on my MT4g, I'm having hella trouble.
So I got to S=off and its perarooted now, with ClockworkMod Recovery image: 3.0.2.4. I tried to update the Kernel to KB-Kernel-2.4.8-108-CFS-SV... put my phone with the stock ROM into a boot loop, so i restored it. Tried to update the Kernel then immediately install CM-7.0.0... again put it into a boot loop, and had to restore. What am i missing here? Should be partitioning like with my MT3g? Should i be wiping? Is there something else I should be installing?

That's your problem. You can't flash a kernel before the ROM, because the ROM's standard kernel immediately overwrites it. Try wiping all 3 items in the recovery menu, flash CM7, and then let it boot. Once CM7 is stable, try flashing your kernel. Just make sure it is compatible.
Sweet, thanks. Hopefully it works.

3. Reboot into recovery
4. Wipe cache then in advanced...wipe davlik cache

But I did mention wiping, and that was my main thought as to why it's not booting.

Wipe factory data
Wipe catche
Then go into advanced wipe dalvik
Should take 30 secs max to wipe, 5 mins max to install and reboot
Then flash your Rom and reboot. Once its rebooted then try flashing the kernel. There is no reason that won't work assuming you do have s-off

If what Mark said doesn't work, I'd look to a corrupt recovery image, or more likely a bad download or SD card.
Aww... I'd be hella sad if I had a bad sdcard. My problem was that I wasn't wiping the correct things, but now thanks to you great people I finally can flash again! Thanks!
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Glad you got it working. If Mark or I have helped you, maybe you could hit the thanks button.
Make sure when you do a kernel you wipe cache and than davlvik and than flash the first time kernel and than repeat the process and than flash your desired kernel.

cwm7? Never heard that before.
If you know how to boot to ad recovery, that is, by pressing red/power button while phone is booting then choose Ad Recovery. Then choose wipe data and cache partition. This will restore back everything just like the first time you boot after installing the rom.
Again, wiping data and cache partition will delete all downloaded apps and user and syatem settinga. Be sure to make a backup.

Better do a task29 then install radioand reinstall magldr or clk then install cwm then install rom. In short, start from scratch since you are selling it.

you need to flash another rom something is bad with the one you flashed wiping wont fix anything if the system is corrupt somewhere restore via nandroid or flash a completely different rom thats your only choices.

flash through recovery go into the bootloader (bootloader=phone off volume down hold power) use the volume rockers and go to recovery and boot into CLOCKWORKMOD recovery which is what you said you have then do a full wipe and install rom normally. if you cant do this then no offense but you really shouldnt be messing with your phone... if all else fails download the stock rom and flash through the bootloader
wen u say install rom normally..wat do u mean?? i did carry out a full wipe..n rebooted my phone..but froze there!!

download the ROMNAME.zip put it on your sdcard where you can find it then go into clockworkmod recovery and go to install zip from sdcard choose zip from sdcard navigate to where you saved your ROMNAME.zip select it and it will install use virtuous sense and stick with that cause if anything happens you seem new and i dont think you will know how to fix it...
and wiping isn't gonna magically fix the fact that your operating system is f'd up but you should wipe before flashing a new rom cause it will screw up the new rom flashed
leme download and flash with a new rom! thank u!..

The clockworkmod method doesn't always work.
Mine right now is doing this same problem and when I go into recovery Clockworkmod only gives me the red triangle of death. And yes, all my recoveries are flashed with the correct versions. (I know what I'm doing)
Sometimes there's just a series of things that all goes wrong in the perfect order.
Hey guys!
Today when i was updating to CM9 my phone started bootlooping, and the big problem is that i can't get into recovery mode by using the 3 button combo.. But I can get into downloading mode, but my computer doesn't find my phone.
I'm really out of ideas here, help is much appreciated.

Hmm, I can hear the phone connect to windows though, and I had it connected just before I flashed the CM9. As the bootloop appeared so did the cpu not recognizing part :/

Ye, same. I've tried connecting other phones to the computer with the same cable and it works. So it's certain that the problem lies with the phone.

Remove your micro sd, you should be able to get back in to recovery then. Once there, repeat flashing process including wipes. Should be okay then.
Just flash semaphore or any other ICS-Root Kernel with CWM for I9000 via ODIN and you should be fine (booting and getting CW back).
Instructions:
Download ODIN (if you don't have already)
Flash Kernel .tar package (don't check repartition!)
If you have never flashed with ODIN before I suggest you find a quick tutorial before you go to work.
Good luck!

It's most certainly a driver issue. Uninstall the Samsung drivers and then reinstall them again.
If that fails, use this

One question...
Was it the driver issue or was it an issue with Odin?

It was the drivers.
This seems like an appropriate place for a question.
I've been using the guide here:
theandroidsoul.com/cyanogenmod-9-cm9-nightly-rom-for-galaxy-s-installation-guide/
To try to install CM9. Using Odin I've flashed:
JW4_JW4_JW4.tar (worked)
CF-Root-XX_OXA_JW4-v4.4-CWM3RFS.tar (worked)
Then I've stuck
cm-9-20120623-NIGHTLY-galaxysmtd.zip
gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip
into the root directory, booted into recovery and tried to run the first zip.
Every time I do this it gets maybe 3 seconds into the install, and reboots. It then shows the "Galaxy S" logo, then "Galaxy S - Cyanogen" (some graphic with Cyanogen in the name) and flips to what looks like the installation text for two seconds - and then reboots and repeats.
I can't drop it back into recovery but I can force it into download mode and flash JW4 again and repeat from the top. This has happened a few times now and I always end up in the same place, which suggests I'm doing something wrong. Please fix my idiocy.

No, I read that for one of the three times I tried. I assume I missed something?
1. Root your device and install ClockworkMod Recovery. - Covered by flashing CF Root, yes?
2. Reboot into Recovery using 3-button-combo
3. Do a Nandroid backup!
4. WIPE (wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition)
5. Install the ROM from internal sdcard using ClockworkMod Recovery - Breaks here.

I did not do a nandroid backup though. Can that actually cause an issue?

Hi Guys
I installed the official Gingerbread that is available from the Huawei site. Install was successful however phone boots fine for the first time but once i reboot it I am stuck in boot loop on Huawei logo. Recovery is reset to default so cannot flash anything that way.
I cannot root the phone via SuperOneClick as it needs logging switched on (Requires reboot).
When I access pink screen no drive is mounted in windows.
How can i remedy this problem?
