Did you check the md5? What recovery are you using and version?

Your probably flashing the wrong file. Since your using the Canadian version you need to flash the Canadian rom. I had the same problem. Check if the ROM your flashing is jfltecan.zip... If not then make sure its that version.

i am using clockwork mod recovery Gummy-1.1-11-21-13-UNOFFICIAL-jfltecan this is the zip im using

Okay. Just factory reset, clear cache, dalvik cache, flash the ROM, flash gapps(make sure it the gapps listed) and then try booting up the phone. It should work. If it fails again try and see if the file your using is corrupted.. Also make sure the file is in a zip and not extracted.

You can do a step by step of how to do this?

I will try, the thing I don´t know is why flashing a 4-file ROM is always said the best solution for a clean install.
Thanks again

Need help updating nightly

S3 I9300
Pacman rom's. Nightly
Latest CWM touch
Problem I'm having is every time I try to flash the nightly update, it says update complete then when I reboot the phone goes into a bootloop and have to restore from backup.
Using CWM I have tried installing zip from SD card as well as from the external SD card.
I have wiped cache & dalvik cache after install and even tried wiping before and after zip install. Still get the bootloop.
Even tried installing using Rom Manager and get the same bootloop.
Do I need to change the file name or something? I'm kinda stuck. Any help would be great.
Thanks guys
I don't have a PC so can't flash with that.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
I'm sure about your phone, but with mine, I just waited a couple of nights for a new nightly. I'm on nightly from 11/9/13 and its been working OK. With it being a nightly, there's always gonna be problems. So I wouldn't worry so much about that, and just wait for the official. but then again, I'm no expert.

are you using a custom kernel? if so the bootclasspath is probably borked.

What version of TWRP did FreeGee give you? I bet you need to update it to atleast 2.6.3.3
You can find it here - http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/g2att/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-g2att.zip
I am on twrp 2.6.3.3. I tried everything i dont kno what to do??

Don't think the md5 part matters. Sounds to me like you're not wiping completely (/system specifically). Follow these steps and you should be good to go..
Wipe dalvik cache
/system
/data
cache.
DO NOT WIPE INTERNAL STORAGE

Getting an error other than the md5 check?
EDIT: Did you Factory Reset in TWRP or go to Advanced Wipe?

Reason I asked is that I would suggest skipping the factory reset option, go in to advanced wipe and check all except internal storage.

CWM stuck trying to install ROM

OK. Tried to install CM11 on my phone today. Stupidly tried with ROM manager. The flash failed. I tried to go back to recovery but each time I boot to recovery CWM tries to flash the same ROM. So I couldn't get back into cwm to nandroid restore. Tried re-flashed cwm with Odin but still would try to install the ROM at recovery. Had to flash twrp clear everything re-flash my original ROM and titanium backup restore. Any ideas how I can stop cwm from trying to re-flash the problem ROM if I go back to cwm recovery??

Hi,
What phone variant do you have?
i9505 or i9505G?
Maybe you can find where the recovery script is located that CWM is trying to open? Then delete that file so CWM won't be able to take orders from it.
Sent from my One X using xda app-developers app
It's the i9505 but with the Google version of 4.4.2

That's what I was guessing but have no idea where this is stored. It's pretty low level so I'd be surprised if it was file based.

Install question
Hiya
Does installing a rom from CWM take ages?
I have tried to install a couple now and they seem to stop at the GT-I9505 screen?
I am installing from ext sd-card

Did you wipe your phone clean before flashing?

Hi
Yes - used the wipe option inside CWM
It may have been a problem with the download file - will retry
Have you deleted the ROM or any files that CWM can reference?

The recovery script that it maybe opening as to why it keeps installing things.
