So I have the Razr M Retail, and I was rooted with Safestrap and running Hashcode0f's CM10, completely stable. Yesterday I decided to move to TWRP with the bootloader unlock, so I backed up my ROM to an external SD, and also separately used TiBu to backup my apps, and then used mattlgroff's Razr M Utility to unlock the BL and flash TWRP, which all went fine. Then I wiped internal storage and restored my backup from TWRP. It restored and booted fine, but the Wi-Fi and camera didn't work. The Wi-Fi is stuck to a toggled off position in the settings, and it's greyed out so I can't change it. If I click to see networks, it gets stuck in "Turning Wi-Fi on..." and I never see anything. The camera force closes with "Can't connect to camera." Since I hadn't been sure from the start that a restore would work, I was expecting trouble at this point, so I flashed a fresh version of CM10 from Hashcode's goo.im with the intention of restoring my apps with TiBu. It booted, but it seemed like it was running slow and the Wi-Fi didn't work, with the same issue as before. I didn't try the camera. I messed around with a few things trying to get it to work, and although nothing worked, I tried doing all of these separately and then reflashing:
a) Flash stock Moto 4.1.2 with the utility
b) Restore my stock rooted Moto 4.1.1 with safestrap (Just sayin, this gets weird, I end up with both TWRP and Safestrap)
c) Restore to b) and then restore my CM10 backup as a Safestrap ROM-slot 1
d) Dial *#*#526#*#* to reset Wi-Fi driver (did nothing afaik)
ALSO, I charged the phone last night and this morning at 8:30 it was at 100% battery. 3 hours later, with wi-fi, data, and GPS all off, and using the phone very very lightly, it was at 46%, so there is significant battery drain coming from somewhere.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
First off, you need to fastboot back to stock and start over. TWRP didn't break your phone, restoring a backup from SS did. If you flash a fresh CM10 build, not a backup, you should be okay and you should only get the bugs that are associated with CM10.
Ok, now you're going to ask why the backup didn't work. SS is designed to work on top of the stock boot.img, but CM10 has its own boot.img and that's the reason that CM10 builds were so buggy when used with SS. When you saved CM10 with SS, it probably saved the stock boot.img with it and the stock boot.img is not going to make CM10 happy. If you had saved a stock based ROM and tried to restore it, you probably would have been okay.
Now, with all that being said, if you fastboot back to 4.1.2, then you'll need to use a 4.1.2 based ROM or a CM build. If you want to use a 4.1.1 based ROM, you'll need to flash the 4.1.1 boot.img, prior to flashing the ROM. You battery is probably dying so quickly because CM10 is trying to fight with the stock kernel. You need to fastboot and flash clean.

Thanks for the info, but it didn't work
I used the utility to fastboot flash stock Recovery and System, then root with Motochopper, and flash TWRP. I then used TWRP to wipe system and flash a fresh version of CM10, and when it booted there was noticeable graphics lag, and Wi-Fi and Camera didn't work.
I'll flash back to stock for tonight, hope you have another idea =\

Yeah, stop using CM builds. The camera and WiFi are known issues on those builds. What I told you solved the issue with your backed up CM build. This is the reason I don't use CM, they are all buggy right now. There was new one released with a different camera. See how that works for you.
What were your steps for install?
-Boot into recovery
-Wipe cache/dalvik, FDR
-Reboot recovery
-Mount system
-Flash ROM
-Wipe cache/dalvik
-Reboot system
FYI, I never wipe system, only cache/dalvik and FDR. Some people swear by wiping system, I don't do it.

Hmm, I think I figured it out, or at least part of it, I'll make sure in the morning. Back in December-ish, before the bootloader unlock, Hashcode was releasing new CM10 builds every few days. Only the latest, dated 12/05, had working Wi-Fi, and that's what my backup should be. Now that I look at goo.im again, the only build on there is dated 11/14, and that's the one that I thought was 'fresh' but it never had working Wi-Fi or camera to begin with. Now I read through the CM10 thread here on XDA and I see that mic213 is building more current CM10 releases with more features working, and Hashcode has removed all of his builds except one (no idea why it's this particular one instead of the latest).
As for my install steps, they were actually:
-Boot into recovery
-Format Data (I said wipe system earlier, but I meant format data, as system gets wiped as part of it)
-I didn't reboot recovery, usually do but I got lazy
-Flash ROM (system was already mounted for me? )
-Wipe caches
-Reboot
So yeah, in the morning I'll download and flash mic213's build from here and I'm pretty sure that should work.

Yeah, definitely use Mic's builds, they are more current. TWRP shows that the sytem is mounted, but it is fact not. That's why you need to reboot recovery. When you reboot, you'll see that it's not mounted.
Mic's CM10 is very, very stable. Very good build.
10.1 is a little more buggy but still a good build.
Sounds like you're either using one of Hash's old builds or new, buggy ones. Mic is the way to go for now

Hi, as XDA doesn't allow me to ask this neither on the Omega Thread and on Ktoonsez Thread of the S4 development, I'l have to ask it here untill I have 10 posts.
I have a i9505 Galaxy S4, (I had an S3, a Note II with Omega, and an S2) and installed Omega 5.0 through the way ::indie:: indicates on Omega's thread which is as follows:
Installation Instructions:
1. Backup all your app and data so you can restore them to Omega v5.0 (I use Titanium Backup)
2. Make a full wipe (Data, System, cache, dalvik Cache) from recovery then boot to download mode immediately and flash Stock I9505XXUBMEA with odin
Get the firmware from here.
Flashing stock XXUBMEA is needed to make wifi work. Many users reported that it took them many flashes with odin to make wifi work on stock firmware.
3. Make sure all are working ok with stock XXUBMEA firmware, check if wifi + LTE (if your provider supports LTE) are working ok
4. Flash TWRP Recovery with odin, get it from here
5. Boot to TWRP Recovery and flash Omega Rom.
Wipe data from recovery is not needed, wipe your data only if you want to.
6. If LTE is not working flash this zip: I9505_Enable_LTE.zip
Ok.
Everything working great!
But then I installed Katoonsez GREAT WONDERFULL Kernel, but the device got so hot, and I could observe throught KTweaks that my cores were allways ever online and the clocks weren't adjusting well.
This happened with every governor and scheduler.
Then I could install every Kernel including reinstalling the rom with the original kernel afterwards that this happened. The only way to make it stop was going to recovery (TWM didn't helped, but CWM allowed me to format every folder like system folder) and only after formating everything, and installing XUAME2 stock ROM through Odin would make my phone not boot so warm again.
It happened several times and got me lots of flashings to dyscover the above procedure to make the phone not get warm.
Once, it worked I don't know why, with Omega 3.1 and KT-SGS4-TW-JB-INTL-05-30-2013. Actually it had the same issues, but specifically with intelidemand governor it suddenly started to work fine for the first time. That was when I realized why Ktoonsez Kernel was so great! it allows you to set so many parameters I had never seen in another Kernel! I succefully updated to T-SGS4-TW-JB-INTL-06-05-2013 and was the best week I had with a phone ever!!!
The battery was almost as good as with my undervolted Note2!
Then yesterday I tried to update to Omega 5.0 and KT-SGS4-TW-JB-INTL-06-06-2013 and all the madness started again :crying::crying:
I'm stuck in the loop and I simply don't know what in the process is making this happens. I tryed to flash in sevral different ways, but in every single way this happens.
I tried flashing the kernel in the same CWM session as I instal the ROM, I tryed doing separately, I tryed wiping wvwrything, I tried wiping only some things and not others, I tried fixing permissions and not fixing permissions after Kernel install (they recomend to fix permissions)...
Well, it is a nightmare!!! All I wish is to get my phone working as lovely as it was with Omega 3.1 again, but even installing the same files in the same way I did, I'm not geting it!
Please help!!!
This is my first post on XDA, since new members cant post in the developer forum, i had no other choice than to post the question here, instead of the original post, please be kind to me
So as the title says I have installed the newest release of the foxhound custom ROM for the samsung s4 i9505. I have read the thread, and the solutions posted there is to flash a custom kernel (I have tried multiple of those).
Device: S4 i9505
Custom recovery: CWM
So this is what I have tried:
Reinstalled the rom, Factory reset + wipe of cache and delwik.
Flashed different kernels, Factory reset + wipe of cache and delwik.
Reinstalled rom (Factory reset + wipe of cache and delwik) and flashed kernel at the same time.
WiFi was working on the Foxhound 0.1 rom before I tried to install the latest (12.6) rom from CM 10.1 (Wich all versions of keeps giving me a error 7, even after I remove the check from the script.)
The other method I found, was to reinstall the Original Samsung ROM (4-11 times) until it worked, then root, flash new Foxhound 0.4 ROM and then the new Kernel (Adam). But I wanted to post here before trying this.
The WiFi toggle is greyed out, making me suspect that the device simply does not register that there is a WiFi chip at all, and that is a kernel problem, no?
Got it working after a long struggle.
Here is what I did:
Factory reset
Wiped chache
Formated system, chache and data
Installed Fochound ROM 0.4
Factory reset + wipe chache / dalwik
Flashed Wanam's Kernel, adam did not work. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2281738)
Shut off phone, not restart.
Turned phone on.
Tried so many combinations, and in the end it worked. Can't believe that it didn't work when I used CWM to reboot, but rather when I shut it off and turned it on manually, maybe a coincidence?
Tipe in dialer next time *#0011# left click,wifi,off and you will haw.

Hi, I'm just another android semi-noob who made a silly mistake, and has now spent the whole day in the library researching my problem, as I don't have internet at my new flat yet.
Here's what happened, as concisely as possible:
I have a Nexus 4, on 4.2.2, running a version of PA 3+, with Franco Kernel. I felt like another PA nightly update, after having not updated for a couple of weeks, so I chose the latest one, which was PA 3.92. Did the usual - recovery, install rom, install gapps, install kernel, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache.
Then, the phone wouldn't boot, was stuck on the Google logo. I went to bed. Today, I realised (although I could still be wrong) that the 3.92 PA update was for Jelly Bean 4.3. Is this even correct? Well, assuming it was, I managed to connect phone to my mac, go into terminal, use adb-mac, which I had downloaded months ago when I first rooted, and send the PA 3.69 zip to the phone. Installed that, then gapps then kernel, wiped cache and dalvik cache, and rebooted. I've now done this a few times and each time, I get stuck at the Paranoid Android boot logo.
Most of the other threads I see suggest wiping data. I really don't want to wipe my data, is there a solution?
If I do, really, have to wipe my data to get any further, how would I go about backing EVERYTHING up beforehand, given that I only have access to fastboot and recovery? Would I need to follow this tutorial (which doesn't backup SMS...) - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1420351 ? Also, when I've backed up, how exactly do I go about wiping data and then getting back to exactly where I was before all of this?
Was I correct in thinking that PA 3.92 is only for JB 4.3 and that PA 3.69 is for 4.2.2? Was I correct in thinking that this is why my phone got stuck?
Please, please help me, it will be much appreciated, my laptop is almost out of battery now so I'm going home, then coming back to the library in an hour as I haven't eaten all day
Depressed noob.
Flash PA again but do not flash the kernel. looks like PA is using jss build and maybe the kernel you are flashing is using jwr build.
PA is having some problems now with root, i suggest you to stay in 4.2.2 or use another 4.3 rom.
Did you flash the Android 4.3 baseband and radio?

Yeah, I do intend to say in 4.2.2, do you think I should try an older PA? I think 3.69 is for 4.2.2, which is the one I've flashed, several times. OK, I'll try flashing the rom, then gapps but not Franco Kernel as you suggest, but I think I may have tried that already and it didn't work.

Yep, you have to wipe data since you're switching between Android versions.

But I only installed the PA rom corresponding to JB 4.3, I never updated to stock 4.3 or anything beforehand, it was just a mistaken update to PA 3.92 which I think is for JB 4.3 only. Anyway I think I'm clutching at straws here, so if I do have to wipe, 1) how can I make the fullest backup possible of everything on my phone and, 2) how do I go about wiping and finally, 3) after I wipe, what exactly do I do??
Thanks so much to you three for taking an interest in my problem so far!

I had exactly the same issue you had at first boot, it remained at Google logo forever when i first flashed PA 3.92. This issue came because i was flashing PA 3.02 with Franco nightly 165, franco nightly 165 is for 4.2.2m and if you were in 4.2.2 then you will never know new releases as that one was the last 4.2.2 kernel. I suggest you flash PA 3.92 + gapps from 0802, without Franco, it will boot fine. Also, as explained in big letters in PA download, first step is to download radio and bootloader for the update, i did not have to wipe my memory for the upgrade.
I don't recommend downloading Franco 175 for 4.3, as it has conflicting issues with PA, so use PA with the stock kernel and you should be good meanwhile this gets solved.

But how do I go about backing it up before I wipe it give that I can only access fastboot and recovery (CWM) ?!?!
OK, I've found a way to do it using
./adb-mac pull /sdcard/0/ sdcardbackup
do I need to backup anything else?
Also, I've downloaded the link you sent me, just to be clear, first, I wipe data, factory reset, then I send the radio and baseband to my phone using adb, then flash them in recovery and then flash PA 3.69, GApps, Franco Kernel r165 then wipe cache, dalvik cache, then reboot, then go about restoring all my data. Is this correct?
Mee too
I just wiped my Nexus 4, flashed the new jb 4.3 bootloader and radio, and flashed PA 3.94 to check out the experience.. Except for the time taken by boot logo to start up the first time, I was happy using it for a couple of hours.. Only till the time I rebooted it.. Since then, it's just stuck at the PA animation / logo and NOT MOVING AHEAD !! Please help!!

just do what is written on the xda page, do not deviate from that.
get up to date, that means get the latest TWRP and make sure you are running googles newest radios
1. factory reset, perhaps format partitions: system, data, cache, dalvik
2. install the latest PA, thats 3.94
3. install the latest PA gapps, thats 0805a
4. wipe caches, reboot
5. do no mess around with things like titanium backup - at least dont restore system apps
6. if you make a clean install root will work out of the box.
when developing i must go through that process hundreds of times, i can vouch that it will work.

Moles! Help me! I refer you to my first post in this thread, I want to stay on 4.2.2 and PA 3.69 for the moment, and preferably not wipe everything. I accidentally updated to PA 3.92 and then stuck at the PA logo on boot forever. Now I've tried to go back to 3.69 many times and still get stuck at PA logo. currently using adb pull to get all my important stuff off phone.
Is there a shortcut for me, which doesn't involve wiping??
EDIT:
... OK, I just downloaded the 4.3 radio and bootloader, pa 3.94, gapps and sent them to my phone, flashed each one in turn and then wiped caches, reboot. I skipped the wipe, and now my phone is working for the first time in three days - [optimising apps]. Let's see if this works....
Yep, phone works absolutely fine, didn't have to wipe and now have 4.3 and PA 3.94, which wasnt my original intention, but it had to happen sometime! Thanks for all the help people, I think we can consider this one solved

Download the nexus 4 toolkit and flash stock rom from it
Hey guys,
I'm not a total scrub at flashing roms and there's still a bunch of things that I don't understand. I'm pretty positive that I flashed Slimrom correctly but here's the situation.
Started on 4.2.2 Slimrom
Reboot to TWRP recovery
Format factory reset/format data, system, cache, dalvik cache
Flash Slimrom 4.3 stable build 1
Successfully reboots into 4.3
Okay now here's the weird part.
The first time I rebooted back into recovery to flash gapps. After I flashed gapps and tried to reboot into the rom, the phone freezes at the screen with "google" and the unlock sign on the bottom. The only way I can get it to boot into the rom again is if I reformat/reset EVERYTHING (including format data) and reflash 4.3. After a few tries of messing around with not wiping dalvik/cache and stuff I realized that even if I don't flash gapps it still freezes on the google screen. So here's my main problem
After flashing 4.3 slimrom, the phone boots into the rom only once. If I try restarting my phone it freezes on the "google" screen.
Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
Just to clarify it's a LG Google Nexus 4 mako.
Sorry if I'm being redundant. I just want to give as much detail as possible. If you need anymore info let me know!
Thanks

Yep I'm positive. I redownloaded both the 4.3 rom and gapps package multiple times just to make sure. Also it doesn't reboot even if I don't flash gapps. Doesn't boot at all if I flash both the rom then gapps at the same time.

then, wipe data/factory reser and flash the stock rom. the rom might be the problem

It works for everyone else though. It's Slimrom 4.3 stable build 1.
Rom isn't the problem.Slim rom beta 1(4.3) is super stable. Use any version of twrp recovery other than 2.6.1.0 and wipe system+data,flash slim rom,flash slim gapps,reboot.
Note: if you flashed franco kernel then this may be the issue for your bootloop also you may want to upgrade your bootloader and radio to 4.3 versions(bootloader more important)
