Hey guys,
this is my first post and my problem is as follows:
I had ICS 4.0.x on my galaxy tab 10,1 P7500, I then installed CWM 5.5.0.4. but had a rolling window. I then continued to install a bootloader (here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27830023&postcount=41) with the appropriate bootloader for the p4. This fixed the rolling recovery and allowed me to install CM10 using CWM.
But my current problem is when the device goes on sleep mode and I wake the device up the screen is scrambled, can anyone tell me how to fix this?
Thank you in advance
The only fix i found is for HC

Edit:
I fixed the rolling screen issue after screen unlock with pershoot's help, thanks again pershoot!
Maybe it will also work for you , here we go:
If you have installed the latest cm10 build, there is only one issue for the p4wifi , you must be on the US ICS Bootloader .
So download the recovery.tar.md5 from here:
http://droidbasement.com/galaxy/roms/cm10/p4wifi/recovery.tar.md5
Than go into download mode and flash this recovery using ODIN, (select pda and look for this file where you safed it, than click start)
Than, download the right US ICS Bootloader here:
http://droidbasement.com/galaxy/roms/cm10/p4wifi/US_LPL_4.0.4_bootloader.zip
Flash this also via ODIN in the PDA section, this may take a little longer, don't panic...
After that, the tablet will reboot and it should work... don't blame me if it didn't, but i had this rolling screen on almost every rom, and everything is fixed now...
I wish you good luck because i know it IS very annoying..
Thanks for the reply DefQon, I agree I think this is most annoying errors I have ever gotten.
I also searched high and low and could only find the fix for HC.

Please help - When turning off the Screen Android 4.1.1 will not come back on
I have the following problem.
When I install one of the latest rom e.g.
[ROM] [JB] [P4--P4WIFI--P4VZW]
4.1.2 AOKP for the Galaxy Tab 10.1
or
[ROM][JB][CM10] Android 4.1.1 - CyanogenMod 10 Preview
then I have this problem:
When I turn off with the "Power"-Hardbutton, then it turns off, but it does not turn back on. The screen stays black.
With the Rom ...
[ROM][JB][CM10] Android 4.1.1 - CyanogenMod 10 Preview "cm-10-20120814-EXPERIMENTAL-p4.zip" from August everything works fine.
Since I had this flickering problem I flashed the bootloader before I installed all these Roms.
But one works and all new ones don't.
Anyone has a idea what to do?
thx

i tried this method, but at second flashing (bootloader.zip) i get "0 succeed/0 failed" and still i get that scramble, and have to reboot all the time.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Problems solved
I solved my problems. I installed the "custom" bootloader for each Rom and the "black screen" problem is now gone.
Thanx anyway.

I have tested the fix for weeks now and it worked great.
Except, this afternoon my tablet randomly restarted and now won't go past CM 10 boot screen.
Any idea whether reflashing the ROM without wyping, purely just installing (as is) CM10 M2 from CWM? Or any other ideas?
I have tried clearing the cache and the dalvik cache. I then tried doing a factory reset but it doesn't seem to proress. I thought if I can do a factory reset then reinstall the ROM I might get it to work but I can't install the ROM as it says "Error (Status 7)?
I have tried formatting the /data in attempt to get the factory reset to work but this also freezes.
Currently, my tablet is in an infinite loop cycle and I cannot change the ROM or do a factory reset.
Thanks, you guys have really been helpful!

After hours of trying I have found a solution.
I previously had done backups. I tried each one until one started restoring. It completed quite a lot till it froze and I restarted into recovery.
I did a cache wipe and dalvik cache wipe and could then complete a factory reset.
It has now booted completely into ICS where I can now flash CM10 again.
The tablet works normally as you would expect on ICS. I booted into recovery and tried to flash CM10 M2 for the GT-P7500 but I still get a error, status 7.
Anyone experienced this?

Status 7 usually indicates the wrong update file, are you sure you are flashing the right ROM for the 7500?
Perhaps try to flash the recovery and bootloader first and then the right ROM and see what happens?

The thing is it is the exact same file I used to flash the previous time.. I first updated my recovery and bootloader before flashing and still get the error. Thanx for the thought though.
Hi all =)
Since I got my GT-i9505 I've been experimenting with different Roms. Of course, this can't be done without a good recovery.
When I started, I used i9505 TWRP 2.6.0.0 and was really happy with it. But after flashing a few Roms, I had more and more errors/bugs and decided to try another recovery.
I'm now using CWM based recovery 6.0.3.2 for i9505 and it works nicely. But when I tried to flash CM 10.2 i had a "Status 7" error and my device suddenly rebooted and now I am concerned that it might happen again.
So now I'm wondering, which is the most reliable recovery for our GT-i9505? And what is the difference between the CWM based Recovery and the one from http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager ? The "original" recovery seems to be more up to date, but can I use my backups with it, too?

Hi,
None of the recoveries are 100% yet.
Look HERE
I use PhilZ.
Most of the time it works.
Some ROMS will give me error status 7.
Just wipe clean and flash again.
Sometimes , it has taken 3 goes to get a ROM to load.

Hi there =)
Okay, good to know. I was just wondering if there is something like the best recovery since all seem to have their little bugs and errors.
And since I soft bricked my device last week, I just want to be super careful now.

Hi,
There is no "Best".
Otherwise everyone would be using it.
You will not brick your phone installing any of these recoveries.
So i have the I337m, canadian model S4 on Bell Mobility network, and I"m running SlimRoms with 2.5.0.2 twrp recovery.
Every other reboot, the phone gets stuck on the splash screen, I have no problem to go into recovery mode or anything, this is simply a problem when rebooting and gets stuck on the "Galaxy S4" screen. Here's what I've tried, tried both with TWRP and CWM and TWRP seems better, I don't get stuck on the splash screen as often as CWM. I've reverted back to the "stock ROM" and rerooted and loaded the TWRP recovery, and while it seems better at first, it slowly gets stuck more and more at the splash screen.
I'm running out of ideas, no knowing what do to to improve this problem...
Anyone else having this problem? I'm positive this is not a "ROM" related problem but a recovery problem, yet maybe it's just my phone that's being the problem.

I'll also add that I've never formated data on TWRP... since I've read it gives that problem.

You have to do a factory reset, wipe data, or you will get a boot loop. Do that and I'm sure you'll get past the boot loop. If you're concerned about the version of twrp you're on, update it.

I'm not getting boot loops actually, I get stuck on the "splash screen" and when I hold the "power" button for +/-10sec it reboots and most of the time it's fine.
When I install any roms, I always do a factory reset... So I doubt it's that
i had the same issue. im running the same s4 on koodo/telus. how i got it to work took a while but it fixed the problem. full back up through recovery but i wasnt gona use it..i only had it for safety. used titanium to back up all the apks. then grabbed a stock rom from the Canadian stock roms page and used odin to flash it. rooted and added recovery (twrp). downloaded my rom to the sd, wiped everything and installed the rom. once done then used titanium to restore the apks. im still learning the basics to all this so in no way am i an expert and theres probably a better way around all this but this is what worked for me. maybe it helps who who knows

I was having a similar problem to your's. I found the cause of my issue. It was TWRP 2.6.0.0. More specifically, it was using TWRP 2.6 to format my /data partition. After doing some trouble shooting, I found that my /data partition was the cause of my S4 hanging at the S4 splash screen. Like you, I was able to get into Android on the first boot, but if I tried to reboot, I was get stuck at the splash screen. So, long story short (solution), I restored one of my nandroid backups, got into Google Play, downloaded ROM Manager and installed CWM. I used CWM to format my /data partition and ONLY my /data partition. Once I did this, I rebooted my phone. Android loaded, I had to go through the initial setup process since I formatted the /data partition, but after this, I was able to reboot my phone 5 times in a row without issue and shut down twice with no problems booting back up.
Here is my thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=45448596#post45448596
There's a bit of reading. Hope this helps.

i think the rom is the cause of this issue. i myself am running goldeneye rom which is the best rom ive used so far...perfectly balanced performance and battery life. id definitely recommend it.

I've been running Slim for a year now, and won't go back to anything else, it's stable and fast, I doubt it's a ROM problem, but a recovery problem.
i think you're right. a problem with the recovery makes more sense.

So it seems like this wasn't exactly my problem... I've reverted back to stock and I'm doing a couple shutdowns and reboot and see if I still get stuck at the splash screen.
I've been doing reboots and shutdowns on the "stock" rom and "stock" recovery, and all is good, so I can rule out the fact that it's the phone and it's hardware issues...
Now, just need to figure out the actual problem

So far so good. I rebooted many times since I made the post in this thread. Haven't got stuck on the splash screen yet.
I'm still having the problem, being on either the TWRP, CWM or Philz recovery, so I'm really not sure what it could be. I'm on the latest modem and still have the problem, is none else having these issues?
I'm getting annoyed and really want to get this fixed.
I think any ROM built on AOSP or CyanogenMod have this issue. It's already a known issue to CM.
Use CWM and you'll have to deal with it less.

Hey
I am a problem with my S4, GT9505
I use the latest CWM 6.0.3.6.
I use the CM nightlies since 10.1 and I used 10.2 since 3 weeks, today I just flashed to the latest nightly 2013-09-13
The phone does sporadically not boot completely. Sometimes it hangs at the Samsung logo screen, sometimes it restarts while booting. This happens every 2nd or 3rd booting time.
Is this a problem of CM?
Thanks
any ideas?
I just read here, that it is a known issue
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45658424&postcount=2955
but is there a fix?
does anyone know if there is a fix for this bug?

Dear all,
I followed the CM webpage wiki to install the latest stable ver 10.2 on my S4 i9505.
Heimdall in download mode to install CWM
then boot into CWM to flash CM10.2
It didn't went smooth at start so I did a few times with the Heimdall and flash CM10.2 a few times.
Now everything works except once a while when reboot the Bootup screen hangs there before entering the CM loop logo. It only happen once a while and need to long press power button to reboot. There was once the 2nd reboot also hang there.
Any idea what's the possible cause and how to fix it?
Thanks a lot.

Could this be related to knox bootloader? I checked I got this void line 0x1 in download mode.

I think I might figured out the problem.
Might because I didn't do properly during rom flash. I forgot to wipe the system when flash cyanogenmod.
Could be because of this. I've switched to a different rom now, so won't be able to verify until decide switch back to cyanogen.
