Hello, I have recently been unable to flash ROM's succesfully.
I have Clockwork MOD 4.0.0.2 installed as it came with CF-Root, and I am on stock 2.3.5 KI3.
I have tried flashing several roms, and while it says install complete, whenever it restarts, it is on a boot loop, where it won't go past the Galaxy S II bit with the yellow triangle, I have to flash the stock rom again using odin to even use the phone, I have tried to flash other recovery versions, like 4.0.0.14 and 5.1.2.6 (I think it is) but they all come up with errors mounting or getting recovery.log or something, could you please help?
Did you try to do a full wipe?
Most issues can be resolved by this.
In the CWM menu chose the factory reset/full wipe. (Don't worry it won't touch your files on the internal SD card)
Do a cache wipe and in the advanced menu do a dalvik cache wipe.
Some recommend to do this procedure twice, but you should be settled with doing it once
Let me know if it helped?

Yeah I did all that, didn't help, the progress bar gets half way and says complete :S I have downloaded the ROMs several times aswell incase they were corrupt, still didn't help.
Take out the battery, wait a bit, put it back in. Do all the wipe and formatting procedures (perhaps twice) and format the internal sd card as well and wipe the battery stats (just to be sure)

Try going back into recovery, and wipe SYSTEM, then reflash both your ROM and Gapps if necessary.

Where do i wipe SYSTEM?
Or just format /system?
Wipe system = formatv/system

It's hard to brick a phone just by trying ROMs, but follow directions and always make a backup before experimenting.
Follow these steps and it should be fine:
1) re-download a ROM, and save it to microSD (can skip if not possible, but is recommended)
2) boot into recovery (hold volume down key while booting and select android recovery)
3) wipe data/factory reset
4) select advanced and wipe dalvik
5) mounts and storage and select "format /system"
6) go back and select choose from external sd
7) install from external sd and reboot
8) reboot
9) reboot back into recovery and install gapps.

SBFs often overwrite the baseband radio, which is dangerous. Very dangerous.
As for flashing a ROM, that's just writing to the partitions on a disk - typically very safe, although you can get messed up.
So what exactly are you seeing when booting?
If it hangs at the motorola logo, then you need to properly wipe and flash again. If you can get back to your CWM recovery, go under mounts, and then format /system option. Then flash your ROM, and gApps.
If you're seeing the Android boot logo, then you might need to wipe the dalvik cache, normal cache, and then do a system/factory reset... should get you situated.
Either way, wiping all that stuff wouldn't hurt.

2-3 month before I was in same situation, but CWM also doesn't work, I resolve this whit fastboot, you can try get into fastboot and flash system and boot image (download from internet), also wipe cache. Hope that it will help you.
You might want to check the MD5 sum of your image you're flashing... Could be corrupt.
Trying install this rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2494756
Went to CWM and started full wipe/reset and it got stuck on:
Formatting /cache
had to hard reboot with long press on power button then my stock room booted up, so means nothing formatted...
What to do next guys?
Thanks!
Install twrp, and in preferences check format method -r, fs. Somthing like this. Or wait longer, with standart formating it takes up to 20-30min!

Why does the cache take forever to format on the G2?
ditto
same thing happened to me during a rom install
as i have only had the phone a week i was a bit flustered
i did what they recommended
went into twrp settings and checked <<use rm - rt>>
and then reinstalled the rom, reboot was ok this time
so far so good
yeah i have the same question about wiping cache - on my samsung note 2 using twrp it was so fast
This is a problem in twrp i think, i was using twrp on many devices before, but didn't have any problems with wipe.
I recently did not install or update applications. A few hours ago, i opened phone and when i clicked an app, it gave error "the xx applciaton has stopped". For example twitter whatsapp but not camera but in camera there was no gallery.
I restarted a few times and now i can not beopened, keeps restarting after loading os and when it says "preparinbg sd card" , it restarts.
I can not remember but my rom is aurorasp 4.0.4
I dont want to lose data, how can i backup? My pc doesnot see while phone in pink screen or while power off. What can i do?
(in pink screen, ican only see image file)
Any hlp, i can not open, keeps reastarting
Please help. it goes into infitnve restart loop. I did not install or update any applications, i dont know why this happened.
try reinstall/reflash ROM and clear cache/dalvik cache, factory reset and!!! format internal storage (EMMC)

Hi!
Yes, you can save your phone's data using adb:
Code:
adb pull /data /path/to/save/data
For example, if I want to save my data in a folder called 'data' on the desktop of my computer, I would use this:
Code:
adb pull /data /home/username/Desktop/data
Good Luck
in that matter whenever i see that kind of error like not responing"""""""""""""""
just go to application manager and touch left touch panel (depends on phone) reset app preferances
may it give you out of it. if no than wipe data from recovery or reload os
thnx
regards.
skhan
I cant click anything, it restarts as soon as being opened.
Is there any way different from adb, for example again updating ?
Hey. I would really like to help.

Can you go into recovery? If you can then go into recovery and backup your ROM. After that, get a CyanogenMod JB ROM in you phone from recovery, and install that CyanogenMod on top of aurora. You can wipe cache and dalvik cache. That will not delete your data.

Hello, I have N9005 with KK bootloader, yesterday I installed TWRP and got the message below. I still can flash ROMs (actually installed Omega with no problem). Later I tried CWM and Philz, but get the same message. Even if I try to manually mount cache it does not work. How to solve this issue? I would be glad if anyone can help. And another thing, when I installed Omega ROM in aroma and chose custom kernel, phone did not boot, with the message on boot screen was something about ''selinux kernel not ...''. Then I installed again with stock kernel and phone booted normally...
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
Anyone with the same issue, how did you solve it? Is there a partition corruption involved?

Flash latest TWRP
-Reboot into Recovery.
-Go to "Wipe".
-Go to "Advanced Wipe".
-Choose "Cache".
-Go to "Repair or Change Filesystem".
-Press "Change Filesystem".
-Press "EXT4".
-Reboot system and wait until Android completely boot up.
-Reboot into recovery to check if problem still persists.
-Go to "Wipe"
-Go to "Advanced Wipe"
-Choose "Cache"
-Press Wipe and when finished, post how long it took to finish cache wipe.
Thank you very much for the instructions. Actually I somehow managed to solve the issue few minutes ago. I just used wipe cache function, left the phone for about 10 min and it did it. After that there was no message about can't mount cache anymore and wiping cache takes only few seconds from then on. Hope it is solved... Or should I still do what you suggested, fixing file system... Is it safer to use TWRP or CWM based recovery. Is it just personal preference?
One more thing if I may, Do you happen to know if there is problem with custom kernels and booting ROMs on Note 3... With custom omega kernel phone did not boot, when using stock kernel it did without problem...

No, no need to to it anymore. Glad you got your phone working again. If it happens again, try the steps I mentioned in my first post. I'd be happy if you then could report whether it worked or not. I can only guess if it's just about personal preference. Both recovery systems do basically the same with TWRP being the most advanced and easy to use. I use TWRP because of the many options and most importantly password protection to enter recovery. But be aware that some ROMs are only flashable with certain recovery systems. I can't tell the reason behind it.
I'm sorry, I can't tell you why your phone didn't boot up on Omega kernel. The best thing you can do is re-read OP and ask in the dedicated threads for help.
Thank you very much for being helpful!

Possibly because there is no OS installed, or correctly installed. Clean flash the latest stock ROM via Odin and repeat the process.

My fault. I should have clarified. Its an Alcatel phone, not a Samsung so Odin doesn't work. The phone was performing poorly so I decided to wipe the cache. It took really long to wipe. After 12 hours, it was still wiping so I decided to just reboot the device. After that, I saw the "No OS installed" in twrp. I didn't wipe the system partition, only the cache. At this moment I can't wipe anything because twrp is unable to mount any partition and I'm unable to mount any partition with adb. Debugging is turned on

Oh, ok. You're new here. That's ok. Welcome at XDA =)
First I'd like you to post in the appropriate forums. This thread and the steps I provided are meant for the international Galaxy Note 3. Applying a fix that was designed for a different device than you have may brick your phone. Always look for, and apply solutions dedicated to your specific device model and OS version. When asking for help, always tell your exact device model. There are many Alcatel devices out there, you know. They all have different hardware.
A cache wipe shouldn't take more than a few seconds. On certain devices minutes. Use google to learn how you can flash a clean, stock ROM on your device. I don't know anything about Alcatel phones. Sorry.
For the Alcatel phone, restore using alcatels mobile upgrade software with the phone in download mode.
