Hi guys, I wonder can anyone help. I done a backup using Clorkwork Mod before I flashed a new ROM onto my phone. Now when i am trying to restore the backup onto the phone using CWM it completes the task but whenever I reboot the phone it gets passed the first samsung screen but hangs at the second SAMSUNG screen where the text is pulsing.
I have tried Wipe / Data factory reset, Wipe Cache, Wipe Dalvick and fix permissions. None of these seem to make any difference. The only thing that has worked in flashing a new ROM but I do not want to lose any of my apps /configs.
Any suggestions guys would be much appreciated.

Hey guys,
I've tried to flash DarkSide preFinal on my Atrix, now the phone is stuck on "Unlocked, Dual Core"-Screen.
Here's what I did:
Downloaded latest DarkSide and saved it to internal SD
Factory Reset via Recovery Console
Wipe Data
Wipe Cache
Wipe Dalvik Cache
Flashed the zip file
the process seemed to go through just fine, now when I'm trying to boot the phone it is stuck at the "Dual Core"-screen
Any ideas on how to solve this? I tried to factory-reset and wipe several times, still stuck
Any help is appreciated!
1. Do you have an unlocked bootloader?
2. Are you using a CWM-based recovery?
If you have answered yes to both 1 and 2 then:
3. Have you tried flashing the zip from the external SD?
4. Did you try to flash anything else after flashing the ROM while still in the same recovery session?
(If you answered "Yes" to #4 then re-flash the rom by itself and boot at least once before flashing anything else)
EDIT: Ignore question #1, I just realized you mentioned "Unlocked" on the boot logo.

Thanks for the quick reply.
I reflashed with Wet Dream from the external SD (newer is always better, right? ).
Everything is working now
Seems like being a great ROM.

how long did you let it sit at the loading screen?
Usually when I have boot loops, I let it sit on the loading screen for awhile(2-4 minutes). If it still doesnt boot, then I do a battery pull, and then usually after that it boots.
And if it doesn't boot just reboot into recovery mode, wipe cache, data and dalvik and reinstall the ROM again.

When installing any new rom, it can take a while to build up the dalvik cache again. I've had it take up to 10 min before. Best to just walk away and come back and check on it.
Hey, first time posting. Flashed Shooter RLS 4.4 (first ROM) and everything was GREAT. I decided to change the unlock Screen from Android to Honeycomb (because it didn't show who was calling if the phone wasn't unlocked) and it said that I needed to reboot. So I did... And then it's been stuck on the white HTC Evo 4G screen ever since. I took out the battery and tried restarting, nothing. I took out the battery, booted into recovery, attempted to reboot via Amon Ra,...back to the white screen. Anything I can do other than re-flash the ROM? I don't have a nandroid backup (yeah, messed up).
Thanks in advance for the help.
Did you try wiping the Cache and the Dalvik while you were in recovery?

Just did and so far it's back up and running. A lil sluggish right now but I'm sure it'll work itself out.
Appreciate the help.
What exactly does wiping Cache and Dalvik do, if you don't mind explaining.
Thanks either way.
You need to wipe everything before flashing a new rom and cache and dalvik before flashing a theme or mod to a rom, cache and dalvike are temp files that need to be erased and rebuilt, you have to wipe everything else when flashing a new rom to get rid of all the data just like formatting a hard drive before installing a new OS

I'm on cwm the most current one and every time I try to restore my backup my gapps forceclose my whole phone freezes and is virtually unusable the only way to use it is to flash a rom or do a factory reset can someone please help cause this really mind blowing
I've had that and it seems to help after I restore.....to wipe cache and dalvik right before I reboot
I recently updating cyanogen12 to cyanogen13. Things were running well but while running backup I ran out of memory.
Realised I want installing lots of old apps I no longer used so thought I would factory reset and start again!!! Found out the hard way that this is not the done thing.
Now my phone starts to boot into recovery and all that happens is the 'Teamwin' page just flashes on and off. Is there any way to get the phone back or have I bricked it?
Thank you for any assistance
Flash TWRP with ODIN again, see if it boots, if not, flash CM13 without wiping from TWRP and see if it boots then
Make sure you clear the caches from TWRP, might be an idea to wipe SYSTEM before flashing CM13 again too
As long as you don't wipe DATA or INTERNAL STORAGE, you're apps etc will remain
Hi,
I have G935F, installed TWRP 3.0.0.0 and rooted, WITHOUT wiping. System boots correctly, but I cannot do factory reset or wipe with TWRP, because I got some messages like "Cannot mount Data" and "Failed crypto loader". I understand that it has to do with encryption. Can someone please enlight me, and give me tips about the issue?
Thank you

You have to download dm-verity and force encryption disabler from here , put it to SD card, reboot into TWRP, FORMAT DATA (not wipe) and flash that file (dm-verity and force encryption disabler). All your data will be erased.
No way to unencrypt without loosing you data for the moment(
"All your data will be erased" means that after boot I'll find a clean system installation (as factory reset)?
I hope not to be posing stupid questions, I'm completely new to this world
Thank you very much
Yes just as a factory reset

No, you cannot perform a backup, because your data is encrypted by default and the only way to disable it is to format your data.
I have a unique problem. I have a HTC Desire 612 from Verizon and I decided to revive it to playe PoGo. But it was stuck in a boot loop and I couldn't get any custom ROM.
Finally a gentle soul here gave me the stock rom and I flashed it vide TWRP and played PoGo for weeks. Then yesterday the phone bro led and when it came up it was stuck in a boot loop.
So I decided to flash the stock ROM again. But before that I tried to factory reset. I could go to TWRP, select wipe data, enter yes and the wiping was successful, then clear dalvic and cache and system beforehand finally I flashed the stock ROM.
Surprise surprise is NOTHING happens. The phone boots without the apps telling me they are installing. Then I get back the exact same data in my phone including my selected wallpaper and apps. Before I can do anything the phone restarts.
Point is wiping and restoring the stock ROM does NOTHING to the phone yet the processes are successful. Can somebody help?
