[Q] No new ROM for me. Why? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I have everything done that needs to be done, and when I try to install any of the ROMs available for the D801, it either get "install failed" message or it tells me the install was successful and I get a black screen after the T-Mo splash screen. I can restore backups but flashing doesnt work. Any ideas?

First of all, start with writing down for us what u actually did.
No one has a clue what u mean by "done everything that needs to be done".
What Recovery
What Rooting Method
What did u try to install...etc

Ah, sure. Sorry about that guys. Everything that needs to be done is rooted phone with IORoot, installed newest version of TWRP recovery, made nandroid backup. Tried installing CM 10.2, Buckeye, and Heatshiver 2.4 and 2.5. Again, sorry guys, I know this is kind of a specific hobby, I'll give more details.

I know when flashing roms I have to (using twrp) Do an advanced wipe.. wipe data system everything but internal storage then flash rom if I don't I get the lg power on screen then just a black screen with the led flashing at the top of the screen.. I'm on an at&t g2

Installed ClockworkMod...

Hi guys,
I've tried using unrevoked 3.3 on my wildfire, with android 2.1, didn't work - so I tried 3.2 and I got the ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.0.1 on there, I can boot into that now,
But still not knowing how to root it,
Can someone give me some advice from here, I get the "Internal error" message and can't go any further, but I assume you can manually do it, since I've got the clockworkmod recovery on there,
Toby =)

if you have clockworkmod recovery then that means you rooted it, just put a custom rom onto your sd card, boot into recovery and install zip from sd card. do a nandroid backup of your rom first.
When I try using Titanium Backup, I get a failed message...

Okay, I installed busy box and it says it rooted, does the clockworkmod matter what version you have?

Nope, you should be fine.
Thank you, I'll let you know how it goes, is Wildpuzzle rom trustworthy? It's been around for awhile right? =)
Yeah wildpuzzle is good, I used to use it.
I had abit of a freak out, I wiped my phone then couldn't load any custom rom =( But now its loading, hoping it works...
I don't know if the rom is loading or not, the screen with the android symbol coming out of the box showed up now and white backgroud with the "HTC quietly brilliant" animation seems to be sitting there forever,
I installed the SUnAaBh v1.1** rom from sc card,
Does this seem right?
First boot takes 10 to 15 min.
You should have done a nandroid backup of your stock rom first, oh well.
If it doesn't boot, do a full wipe, wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache in recovery and flash again.
After like 2 or 3 minutes, the screen goes black then the HTC logo screen comes back on and loads again, makes me think its in a loop and no installed right =\
Do a full wipe and try flash again. If it doesn't work, try a different rom.
Yeah, I did a back up with nandroid then moved the files to my computer incase, they was in a folder called orangeworkmod folder?,
Wipe cache?

Yes, you should wipe data and cache before installing a new rom. They are all there in recovery.
Okay, yeah - its all good, was just taking time, does wildpuzzle rom have overclocking feature, or is that a application?

thats just the default android boot screen, looks like the theme messed up your framework... hold on i'll make a .zip you can flash from recovery to fix it
Thanks, but how do I get the zip on the phone? It does not react to anything anymore. I attahced it to my PC but nothing....

im just downloading the rom for you now so i can extract the framework, if you pull your battery out, you can either plug in your charger while its off, this will bring up recovery, or while its off, hold vol down and press power, that will take you to bootloader, and just pick recovery from the list, now when in recovery, if you navigate to the mounts and storage menu, choose the option mount usb storage, you can now connect to a pc as a disk drive and copy stuff to your sd card
im having trouble uploading attachments to xda at the min dya want me to upload it to megaupload for you?
AndroHero,
Thank you for helping me out. I didn't know about the vol down press power option which allows you to acces the sd card and intall a new rom. I had the revolution rom 2.0.9 already. It's installing as we speak. Much thanks for the tips!
To early hooray. I choose the option with the revolution zip for a complete install. After the install I selected rebouut system now. Now it stays on the white HTC screen with the text HTC quitely brilliant. Flashing every 3 seconds or so....
What to do now?
Everything is resolved. revolution is up and running again. I had to un the fullwipe.zip and that did it!
THANKS a lot for all the tips....again

Did you do a full wipe before re-flashing your ROM? even if you did just repeat the process , full wipe /cache, /dalvik-cache, /system and then re-flash the rom fingers crossed it should work

Could it be possible that you installed cwm 3005 and tried a restore with that. I had the same problem. Went back to cwm 2.5.x and then restore worked.
Sent from my Desire HD
I think there will be a lot of scare because of this CWM 3x...
Same happened to me the other day, stupidly accecpted the update prompt from Rom Manager, did my backup and went to install Cyanogen 6... Got stuck at HTC logo next boot.
Thankfuly, had Leedroid 2.0 on the SD, too, and that one flashed properly
Thing is that when I try to downgrade the Recovery to 2.5x I get an error and really can't be bothered with ADB pushing stuff around, so using Cyanogen 7 for the time beeing
Anyhow, CWM 3.x is likely your problem, easy to fix ^^
Wanting to change my theme on the Samsung spica I had theexact problem on cyanogen mod. Had to redo the whole rooting and installing the Rom again to get to work.

yes, is some script...back to recovery 2.x

Phone Bricked? Please help

So I rooted my RAZR M using motofail2go, and all was well.
Installed 'RAZR-M-Safestrap-3.12', as I was going to flash a custom ROM. I first backed up my Original Rom using the backup function.
I then wiped 'System', and went to flash the new ROM, but the flash did not work, so I restarted.
Now the problem is when the phone reboots, it showes the Safestrap splash screen with the Recovery option and start normal, but it is not working, as not sensing my inputs or something, after about 5 sec it goes to a blank screen and sits.
I tried to hard boot into the Android System Recovery, and tried to download an official Verizon ROM and install using 'apply update from external storage' using my micro sd, but I keep getting an error E:signature verification failed.
Does anyone know where I can find an official ROM to set it back to normal so I can use my phone again?
Thanks in advance.
Also: My phone originally had 4.0.4 version.

if you can get back into recovery, you should be able to press "restore" assuming you backed up your previous ROM.

What you might want to to is use RSDlite and flash that image you downloaded. This seems like it would help you, though I have not personally tried it:
http://www.andromods.com/tips-trick...oid-razr-m-xt907-stock-original-firmware.html
EDIT: And once the flash is complete, I would reboot into recovery again and wipe data and cache and then let it boot into the phone.
EDIT 2: Oh, and in addition to RSDLite, you will need the Motorola USB drivers so your computer can see the phone over USB.

[Q] Malladus 1.2.5 stuck at boot.

I've heard ranting and raving about Malladus and I decided to flash it yesterday. It won't take the flash no matter what I do.
I've tried: Flashing 1.2.4, downloading both again to make sure it wasn't a download issue, using different gapps package, using a different lg apps package, using CWM, using TWRP, side-loading... ETC
Bottom line: My phone will not take the ROM. It flashes the LG logo and gets stuck at a black screen where the back-light is on but nothing is displayed on the screen.
I am an experienced flasher and I have no idea what is going on. I am backed up and can get into TWRP to restore so I am all good as far as not being bricked goes but I really want to try out this damn rom.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Same Black Screen issue
Did anyone have any luck resolving this? Ive tried with both twrp and cwm and same issue...?
Same problem on my Verizon model. Using twrp 2.6.3.3. Other roms work fine.
How long have you left it at the black screen? Sometimes a fresh load can take up to 10 minutes.
Also, the rom will work without gapps and lgapps, so try just loading the rom. I know you downloaded twice, but did you check the md5 sum either time?

I left it there for a good 15 minutes. I also had it plugged into my laptop. It kept detecting the phone as plugged in. Seems like it is stuck in a bootloop or something. I also tried installing only the ROM without the gapps and lgapps and had the same result. I also checked the MD5 sum and it matched. (I know I'm kinda hijacking this original post, but I think we are all having the exact same issue)

Can you restore your nandroid and flash say, CleanROM 1.0 or DigitalDream 2.1? OR try this:
1. Hold the power button until the device is OFF.
2. Download LG drivers to the PC (LG VZW_United_WHQL_v2.11.1) and LG mobile support tool (B2CAppSetup).
3. Install these packages.
4. Plug in you USB cable into the phone but not the computer.
5. Hold volume up and insert the USB cable to the PC- the phone should boot to 'download mode'.
6. Open the support tool and click Options>Upgrade Recovery, follow the prompts.
7. At the first prompt indentify your phone using IMEI/ESN, then click OK
8. Let it do its thing, the phone will reboot and most likely have a bunch of error messages and some FC's. Just hit okay to all messages, the phone will settle after 2 minutes or so.
9. Download freegee from market and reflash recovery of your choice.
10. Make sure you have a ROM saved to the SD to flash
11. Use freegee to reboot to recovery
12. Once in recovery you can reflash the ROM as normal.
13. Reboot and Profit!
*$* Or you could go back to Stock and start fresh!
*$* BEFORE ANY FLASH ALWAYS STOP and MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP!
Good Luck and if you get stuck let me know

I was able to install the digital dream rom without any issue. At this point I think its the sequence I did everything. I did the latest ota before installing any Recovery. I used the loki method to install the recovery. In looking at all the roms, it appears that malladus may not be "loki patched" for people already on 12b? Other roms I have tried mention that so thats why I'm speculating this. I am by no means a developer so I might be out in left field on this one. I guess I'll stick with stock or another ROM for now until his next update.
It also looks like people are discussing this on the main ROM forum as well so hopefully it will work in the future.
Thanks again for the help and suggestions.

Wanted to share this if you haven't read it..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2449670
I had issues originally and had to flash back to 1.2.3.
What I ended up doing was switching to CWM 6.0.4.4 ( I was using TWRP 2.6.3.3).
His boot skipped the set up wizard as well, which was odd.
His was also the only ROM I ever got stuck on the fastboot screen while using twrp.
Try ( at your own risk obviously) flashing back to an older malladus (wipe all and boot till you get through the set up wizard),
Then back to recovery, do a wipe, without wiping the system partition, Data Cache and Davlik, and flash back to 1.2.5.
I didn't try it on 1.2.5. But that's how I got into 1.2.4.

Are you on 12B OTA? If so, that would be your issue. I took the 12B OTA and tried flashing Malladus and got the same issue you have. You can revert your phone to 11A and that should resolve your issue. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448960 it will erase everything on your phone and go back to unroot.

[q] possible brick? Error loop

Hi guys!
Yesterday, i used towelroot to root my phone, and installed Safestrap with TWRP as my recovery.
I booted my phone after everything was done, and it worked fine. This is where i screw up... I installed Softkeyz (I thought it might work for the Note 3, but...)
After i installed Softkeyz, and rebooted the phone, my status bar was gone, the background was blue and my task manager didnt work. I went back into the softkeyz app and clicked the "backup" button, wich is said to revert everything back to normal. It didnt.
When i booted my phone after the backup, I still had the same problem.
I then did a Titanium Backup, and went into recovery to factory-reset. it seemed to work, but when my phone boots, I get to the languane selection screen, and then this pops up: "KeyguardTestActivity has stopped". If I click 'OK', the same message pops up and im unable to click "next" or select a language.
I went back into recovey, wiped dalvik, wiped cache, I event formated /data in case there was any virus or anything I had downloaded, did a factory reset, and it stil doesnt work....
I had a ROM on my phone, but it used AROMA so that doesnt work with Safetrap... Now my memory is clean, my phone wont boot, and I cant move any files to the SD-card through regular MTP. I guess I have to use ADB (safetrap can sideload ADB) but I have no idea how to use that, and I have no idea what ROM to use, to get my phone up and running.
I use my phone for work and for studies, and the only reason I wanted to root was for AD-blocker and better batterylife...Now I've messed up..
I've tried searching google and the forums, but cant seem to find any fix. Can anyone out there help me? Please?
EDIT: If i boot the phone WITHOUT the simcard, the error message is gone, but if the screen locks, then in wont unlock. Taskmanager still doesnt work. I managed to get to phone running though, but without taskamanager and a working lock-button.... any help?
EDIT2: after rebooting without the simcard, the same error shows...

Hello again ok so I don't know a great deal about the note 3 or safestrap. But you have a few options here.
if I'm not mistaken the note 3 takes an external SDcard? can you not copy a compatible Rom using a card reader and install from recovery?
I also believe Fastboot works with note3 but not sure how. you could use this to flash a recovery that will work with the Rom on the phone.
or as drastic measure you could adb pull your data and flash it with Odin. flashing with Odin will wipe everything and return you note3 to out of the box condition.

Hey man!
I'm so embarassed I didn't think of the SD card... Now my only problem is that I cant seem to find a ROM that will work... I tried the heisenberg one, but it says "failed" when trying to flash it...
EDIT2: It seems as its my lockscreen that is broken. would that be assosiated with the Kernal? I got a ROM, and it worked, but the same error still occurs..I'm thinking that the Softkeyz-app messed with my kernel, and now killed the phoes lockscreen/kernal. Need a new kernel I guess... but thats messing with something I've never done... any stock kernel?

I also believe Fastboot works with note3 but not sure how. you could use this to flash a recovery that will work with the Rom on the phone.
or as drastic measure you could adb pull your data and flash it with Odin. flashing with Odin will wipe everything and return you note3 to out of the box condition.

Greeeat... I tried flashing the Pacman rom, everything seemed ok, but now i can only boot into the safestrap recovery, and when trying to boot into the system, both with pacman and after trying to wipe everything, it just goes into a black screen...

sorry dude don't know what to suggest, I don't know safestrap, is it necessary to use or can you use a normal recovery? Safestrap seems very different compared with a normal recovery as it bypasses locked bootloaders and allows for multibooting roms. Are you sure you set it up correctly? Did you make a recovery backup before you started flashing anything?
personally best answer I can give you right now is flash an ruu with Odin to get your phone working, then try rooting again after you've researched it a bit.

The link below has a list of stock firmware. Find the correct one for your phone model and download it. At the bottom of the page there is also a link to download Odin and the phone drivers if you need them. As long as you can boot to download mode you can unbrick from pritty much anything with this.

As long as you have correct firmware should be fine, wrong firmware won't flash though so don't panick about that
also make sure you run Odin as administrator and use default options don't tick any boxes manually
