Hi, so I have the new TriForceROM 4.0 and ViSiON-X Blue Ice roms downloaded and tried installing them through the newest Philz touch. All it does is show that it failed. I have flashed successfully Negalite WondeROM and Sacs Custom 4.3 Rom. I wipe data/factory reset and clean to install new rom, then install zip through my external sd card. Why does this process work for Negalite and Sacs but not for TriForce and Vision-X? Is there a different process that I don't know? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Bad download? See if you can open your zips with your app root explorer of choice

I don't know why I didn't think of that. That's exactly what it was- a bad download. Thanks!

I have a retail XT907 on 4.1.2 that I got rooted, unlocked and twrp installed
I want to try the Energy rom and have it downloaded.
Where do I place the zip on the phone to install it in recovery?
I have backed up my system to the sd
Do I need to partition my phone? How to do it?
Can I instal the rom on my phone running 4.1.2?
Thanks

How do I flash safestrap? I currently have TWRP.
I downloaded safestrap.md5 but do I flash it through TWRP or rename .apk?

safestrap.md5 is NOT the flashable/installable file. You want the .apk file.
And why can you not install Eclipse on CWM or TWRP?
I got energy Rom to flash just fine on twrp

TWRP would not allow me to create a partition.
I renamed the md5 to apk and installed it just fine, but now I have 2 recoveries
Installed the Energy ROM and its awesome but camera app fc every time :crying:
I want to try the PAC rom next.
To do so I assume I need to delete the current partition where I have the Energy ROM installed?
Can I install the PAC rom on the stock ROM slot?
If so how do I get rid of safestrap and keep only TWRP?
Thanks to the Razr M community for all the help, I only had Sammy experience before getting the Razr M and been trying to learn it all over again

Camera will not work on energy if you install it on top of a 4.1.2 ROM.
SS can been cleanly uninstalled without impacting twrp.
I'm now on pacman, and it is great except for camcorder not working.

So if I erase system on twrp, restore to stock backup, all the changes made on ss and energy will be gone? Than just click flash and choose PAC.zip and gapps?

I'm not sure if wiping system/factory reset will undo the partitions made via SS - but otherwise, I think you are correct. you don't need both SS and TWRP going forward. however, the only reason to have SS is to install the awesome Energy ROM (although Brandon claims to get Energy installed via TWRP just fine - so you might want to check with him). however, that ROM is based on 4.1.1. all ROMs going forward will be flashable via TWRP.
if you don't mind camcorder not working, then go with PACman.
i would recommend once you download the 5/24 PACman ROm and GApps, go into TWRP, mount everything, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, factory reset, system wipe, mount everything again, install PACman ROM, install GApps, then reboot.
if you cannot deal with camcorder not working, then you can install the base 4.1.2 component, posted on droid-hive:
http://droid-hive.com/index.php?/topic/1767-98161-base-components/
go into TWRP, mount everything, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, factory reset, system wipe, mount everything again, install 4.1.2, then reboot
once you are at a good spot, then you can uninstall SS
Thanks, finally got PAC flashed and am loving it. Camcorder not a big deal for me as long as camera works.
Thanks again for the help

Hello!
I rebooted into TWRP recovery to make a backup and flash a new ROM today...
I happened to notice that my Data partition showed 1432346 MB (1398 GB)
I proceeded to swipe to backup anyways but it failed.. saying the data partition was to big.
There is 9 / 64 gigs used on the external SD card and 4.2 used on the internal SD card...definitely not 1398.
Anyone else have this issue ?

Yes, i just had the same issue. My data partition was listed as 32GB which is impossible. I am using the 16GB model and my SD card is 16GB as well.
Because of this, I'm unable to make any backups. This has to be a common error, anyone else??

Thanks for the link but I was getting this error originally with 2.5.0.2
I flashed to 2.6.0.0 which I thought would fix the error, but it still remains

What rom and kernel have you guys flashed. Did the bad position information start after flashing the rom? My inclination would be to odin back to stock to clear the partitions. Then use twrp 2.5.0.2 or cwm.
Edit, as a first step why don't you flash cwm and see if that clears up the partitions.
I had the exact same issue.. Were you by any chance using SlimRom? I did a full wipe, and kept trying different things to try to figure out the issue, and finally found that I had the huge amount of data storage with SlimRom only AFTER flashing their minimal GApps. Tried it with CWM as well as TWRP 2.5 and 2.6. I flashed the rom first, booted up, checked storage space and it showed I had most all my storage available. I rebooted to recovery, flashed their GApps, rebooted, then it showed I had only 800mb of space left and that was before restoring any apps through TiBu. That was with their Beta 2, 3 and 4 version of 4.3. I haven't tried Beta 5 yet. I switched over to BeanStalk rom, and haven't had the issue.
If you were using a different rom, of course it could be another issue.

Here is my info:

KERNAL: 3.4.0-812098
I was using CWM before and never had any issues with it, but the root method I used http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2297900 installed TWRP together with SuperSU as the default. I was assuming if I flashed CWM that I would lose my root. True or false?

False, you can flash cwm over twrp without a problem
Ok I flashed to CWM and backups work fine. Not sure what the deal was, but this would be the solution if you are having this error within TWRP

Rooted with custom recovery but still stock Samsung TW ROM
I used a CM 10.1 nightly at end of august, think this was like the 26th or 28th. Later on reflashed to my stock rooted/custom recovery touchwiz backup. Week or so later I wanted to start using Carbon ROM, went to make a backup and thats when I noticed the partition size.
I tried to flash CWM through ROM Toolbox Pro...went into ROM Management...then slid over to Management, and "Flash Recovery". I tried both regular and touch but when I rebooted it was still TWRP 2.6.0.0. Is there a different way I should be going about this?
Secondly jd1639, I went to the link you provided and have downloaded the 2.5.0.2 TWRP zip...How can I reflash 2.5.0.2 over the current TWRP 2.6.0.0 instead of going to CWM...or will I have to odin back to true stock with no root or recovery and do it over again?
Thanks

Just install it (flash it) in your current recovery. It'll replace your current recovery with 2.5.0.2

For cwm, I'd get rom manager from the play store and have it install the recovery. Only use it to install the recovery. I'd cook up a zip but I don't have the recovery.img for cwm

I have had it, and have tried to flash CWM multiple times but still wont work.
Not sure whats hapening cause it shows TWRP, CWR v 6.0.3.2, CWR Touch v 6.0.3.2 as latest recoveries, but i have never used CWM.
It says successfull install whenever i touch either files name but after reboot it still boots into TWRP and still shows 1398 gigs for the data partition when i go into backup.

Hi!
I have a EU i9505, rooted with Jamal GE ROM, September update.
I tried installing KTOONsez, both version, but the phone just stays tuck at the Galaxy boot logo
si I have to clear both cache and reinstall the ROM
I tried with Chronic Kernel, same issue...phone stuck at Google 4 circles boot logo.... so I cleaned cache and reinstalled rom... BUT now the phone is not booting anymore
As soon as the boot finishes I see for a while the desktop (with the STD wallpaper and wrong time/date) andthan it reboots....
HELLLP!!!!!
Sounds like something has gone wrong with the installation process and now nothing works. I personally would now install a stock Rom via Odin and get the phone working again. Then start again installing your rom of choice. Ensure that you use an old stock firmware as newer versions have the fuse security feature. What recovery did you use. I had similar issues with Philz so now I use official CMW.

Okay Idk what's going on exactly but I've tried downloading sacs custom 7.2 several times md5s all check out and when I go to flash it in twrp 2.6.3 it fails same with twrp 2.5.2.zip they both keep failing. However I was recently able to flash miuiv5 after a download so the recovery is still working (also it restores backups fine)... So. I'm wondering what's going on here they aren't bad files and it just won't flash! Does this rom have that aroma installer? Am I missing something that allows that?

It could be a product assert. If the TWRP is not made for t0ltespr (Sprint Note II) or ROM isn't made for that the two could be trying to verify the wrong model against each other and failing. You can remove this from the zip by looking for the assert in update-script.
Another option if you're open to it is to try my unofficial CWM and see if that avoids your issue.
Good luck!
rom help
In order for it to work, you need to flash sach's custom rom version 7.0. Let it do a full install and setup, then boot back into recovery. Then flash the 7.1 or 7.2 update. Hope this helps.
---------- Post added at 09:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:45 AM ----------
Do Not, I repeat DO NOT do a system wipe in TWRP after installing 7.0 or 7.1. Let the aroma installer do the wipe. I learned the hard way, I wiped it myself and went to update to 7.2 and got nothing but failure notices. Once I re-flashed 7.1 and let the aroma installer do the wipe, it installed with no problem
ive always done a system wipe with no problems. be sure you are downloading the full rom and not the update. and make sure your downloading from a pc over a good wifi conection, then i make sure the file size is about the same size before transferring and flashing. hope this helps

After wiping system,caches,data in Twrp advanced wiped are you getting the fail? if so just reboot recovery and try to install again without wiping. I have had the flash fail for me too and a recovery reboot solved the issue for me. Also in aroma don't factory reset wipe just wipe cache and dalvik. Also I am on TWRP 2.6.3.1

Hey Everyone
My note 3 roots fine using auto-root and I have tried twrp, cwm, and also philz recovery. They all install fine to my knowledge. However, Once I boot into recovery to flash the custom ROM. I delete cache, user data and delvik and reboot back into recovery I install the rom from sd card it fails. No matter what Rom I used. I have tried Sacs, X-Note, C-Rom, Anthem, no matter what it always freezes and I have to restore stock. Any ideas?
Thanks
Joining to the question
After the custom rom (X-Note,BobCat), my Note3 sm-n9005 freezes randomly, and a boot is required.
The problem doesn't occur when using cyanogenmod 11.

I have the same problem. Can only install asop ROMs but touchwiz ROM won't boot after install. Phil recovery doesn't work for me. Any assistance would be great
