I currently have Oxygen installed and it crashes around every few hours, plus drains battery like hell. I was told by people that proper Oxygen is nothing like that..
They told me to flash the thing again, but.. can I flash the ROM again to make it more stable without wiping the data? It's the same ROM, so that should not cause more problems yes?
Thanks.
Yes you can, but it may not do any good. Try to wipe cache and dalvik cahce, no data loss there...
Thanks. Will do right now.

Hey, how did it go? Unfortunately it is too late for me, cause I already wiped+flashed, but I wonder if you can do it without wiping.
Yes you can. I did it a few times with various ROMs.. Oxygen and Aurora ICS... works fine.. but in my case it did not fix the crashing Oxygen issue... I had to change to ICS.

I was running cm7 since it was first released. I got a new phone so i decided to give my atrix to my younger brother. The problem is after i went through the process of putting the phone back to stock, there now seems to be dead zones on the phone. For example i cannot press the w,e,s, keys. Can anyone help me or tell me if i've done something wrong?
I'm not sure you did anything wrong specifically. Did you make sure the clear all the cache? How did you put stock back on it (IE. flashed stock via CWM, moto fastboot, etc)?.
Boot into recovery, wipe dalvik cache, system cache, reflash your firmware of choice, reboot.

Ive had numerous problems with cm7 for atrix but ive found that backup everything you need with titanium backup and then just reflash the rom and wipe the data and davlik cache and it should. But yh there are lots of issues with the cm7 rom for atrix but its still in beta so dont worry too much it will be ok when there are more updates

The CM7 beta does not have the issues that the OP described so please don't let him think that's the reason.
OP, re-flash your phone with a different ROM or with CM7 again and see if it still persists.
So apparntly I'm the only person in the world whos wifi doesnt work on any builds of ICS. I'v searched everywhere and theres not one thread about it....anyone have any ideas? wifi works fine on honeycomb.
i can't help you here cause I havnt installed ics yet but this is just a thought.... did you try one of these two things yet to solve the problem?
1. Do a full wipe before you flashed the rom?
2. Have you tried re-downloading the rom zip cause it may have been corrupted somehow during the download?
Maybe this has helped, if not maybe your Xoom maybe faulty?
Ether way good luck & hope you solve this wifi problem out mate

I had the same problem, you have to do a full wipe AND wipe the cache and dalvik and reflash the rom. That fixed it for me.

Yeah. You need to do a factory reset. Make sure you back up /mnt/sdcard because it erases everything.

Did you restore system apps or system data after the wipe you had to do? This would mess up your wifi as well as email, probably. Just reflash the nightly and the gapps and wipe cache and dalvik cache and you should be good to go on reboot.
Hi,
I have Kindle fire. I rooted and installed TWRP in linux. Since then I've been using CM7.
Now I've been trying some ICS roms, but they all have huge issues. For instance CM9 Kang Rom had freezes all the time. I have to restart it long pressing power after a freeze. And many people say they have no issue and it works perfect. Is it possible that I did something wrong?
Everytime before flashing, I do factory reset, wipe system. And after flashing I wipe cache /dalvik.
Would it be worth to try installing twrp again?
Or is there a syslog like thing in android where I can check what's going on before freezes?
Edit: Installing intersectraven's CM9 kernel solved my ICS issued. (For Energy CM9 Kang Rom)

Wipe them all before flashing... wiping them after flashing can remove important parts of the rom written to /data/... Wiping them before hand is needed to remove all the parts of the old rom that can cause problems in the new one
I do the same steps you do ( factory reset----flash rom---wipe cash and dalvik)
I thing you are spoiled of the cm7 roms. Cm 9 is a rom under development and the people ignore the problems in ICS because they like ICS and want to have it.
I use ICS (energys rom) as my daly driver and I love it. I know thera are a lot of issue but I like it more than cm7.
Are you getting skids? Sorry that was just too easy.
sorry, who do you mean, me?
My english is in development and I don´t know what "Are you getting skids" means.

Well, do you get frequent freezes? i get freeze in less than 10 min whenever i try to use energy. There are many people who say they use it stably. That's why i thought i had a problem.
I just do factory reset, install, reboot and it always works. I agree, wiping after might remove required components.

I tried installing Energy Rom once again, but this time after installing Energy, I flashed intersectraven's kernel. Since yesterday I did not have any freeze or other problem.
So I used the Auto CF root and all went well. Next, I went back into recovery and installed the TWRP Recovery though odin. It installed fine. After that I noticed I no longer had root and I can't figure out how to get it back. Supersu was still installed, it just wouldn't work.
At this point, i've tried redoing the root process a couple of times and it says that it worked fine, but doesn't do the job. Anyone got any ideas on what to do?
If anyone's curious, I started on totally stock OTA MF9.
Thanks
Just flash one of the stock rooted mf9 ROMs in the development thread pic one with no data wipe so you don't have to set everything up again.

Thanks for the tip. Downloading the odexed version of this. Slow download so almost 2 hrs left.
[ROM][ZIP]Stock Rooted Deodexed/Odexed MF9 with SuperSU/Busybox 1.20.2
Hopefully it works. I tried wiping cache and dlvik cache and now when i turn the phone on it just keeps giving errors that this and that app can't open so the phone is essentially unusable. Didn't think wiping cache would do that.
Yeah sometimes things just go screwy. Have you tried fixing permissions? While you wait for a download you can wipe cache davlik and fix permissions its in the advanced menu of twrp. The odexed with no data wipe should fix you up I would recommend wiping cache davlik and system before you flash it. If it still gives errors you may have to wipe the data also and start fresh. You can also try TWRP version 5.0.2 if you aren't on it there is a flashable in the dev forum also. Some people have reported issues with the newer version. I think you will be fine flashing that stock odexed ROM though.

Out of curiosity, would there be any danger in installing a custom rom while my phone is in this state? Downloading Blu Kuban Rom and it's going to finish much earlier than the stock rom. I know I would lose all my apps and need to reinstall those.

Nope no danger at all. In fact I recommend blu Kuban. Its a nice ROM. Just do a full wipe of system data cache davlik and preload before flashing to avoid issues. All the custom ROMs have root built into them so you should be good to go.

Did you try to install super SU from the market. Maybe super user is acting up on you.

I tried installing supersu from the market. Next I even tried downloading it to my phone and loading the zip in recovery. No go both ways. I hoped wiping cache and delvick cache would help, but instead the phone is pretty much unusable now. It's really weird.

Here goes that frantic post. I installed the rom, worked fine. I did one of the updates for the status bar, now whenever it goes to boot it gets stuck at the samsung galaxy s4 screen. I've tried doing a full wipe, wiping cache and delvick cache and even trying to install the stock rooted rom or the blu rom on top of itself and i still get the same thing. Any ideas? I'm trying not to be too flash happy because I don't want a brick.

I finally got out of the boot logo. I looked around the forums and found someone with a similar problem. Seems the recovery wasn't deleting all the files for him so he deleted everything manually instead of just wiping. I did the same and installed triforce rom and it's booted now.
Just for future reference though, would you mind explaining or pointing me to where I can read about the battery pull trick?

Basically, quite a few people have recommended pulling the battery once frozen.
Even when you do a power off, you are NOT completely removing power from the system.
Disconnecting the power is the only way to accomplish this.

Hi Guys,
i updated my Galaxy S4 I9505 to Snapshot M12. Still got freezes when i charge it overnight (its connected to the original charger the whole night). I only can do a hard reset to use my device again because the touch-screen doesnt work then. This is very annoying because i use my device with Alarm to get up in the morning.
I already did a few clean installs, wiped all caches and formated all data and Cache aswell. Still freezes. Sometimes i get them from waking up my device (mostly in the morning between 5-6 am). I already sent a few errors through the integrated report-System. But ist still not fixed.
Any ideas ??? I really Need help with this !!!
I use this Modem I9505XXUGNG8
Thanks
I suggest new kernel, googy max is compatible with cyano, I use and the battery have more life....
i thought the same but i wasnt sure. i tried all but not kernel. i always use the kernel that comes with cyanogenmod. i tried a few modems and still doesnt work
i try it later that day. thx for your answer.

Nightly 11/21 works for me now :-/
But i see tomorrow if its ok. All i did is an new clean install. i formated all folders on my internal sd with clockworckmod. maybe this was the problem, because i didnt formated all folders.

at this point I think it is a problem of cyano. Try other rom. The cyanhacker ...
I reverted to Stock and rooted from the beginning. Now im on Snapshot m12. I had to flash GNG8 Modem again. But i flashed only modem. Before i always installed Modem and Nholos. I think that was the Problem.
