I updated my phone to latest liquidsmooth rom two days ago and the phone freezes and restarts/reboots randomly like sometimes when im on phone/ playing a game/ using browser/ connected to charger. Yesterday I changed rom to latest carbon rom. Did install (3 wipes) as told in the thread but im still having the reboots.
Im using TWRP recovery and had used Utility 1.10 to go back to stock from Energy rom with safestrap recovery.
Can tell me whats the prob? Is it the kernel problem?
Have you tried upgrading or reflashing TWRP and then doing a clean install of Carbon? Its probably worth doing a fresh download of each first just to make sure you cover all your bases. These reboots were happening to me a few months ago and it drove me mad. following these steps fixed it for me.

Honestly, if you're using SafeStrap, that might be your problem. Remove SS and flash the ROM in TWRP. If your bootloader is unlocked, you don't really want to use SS. Also, make a stock backup in TWRP, prior to flashing. This way, it will be easier for you to recover in the future, and you won't need to go through the painful process of fastboot.

Thanks man. I will upgrade TWRP or reinstall it first. Thanks for that tip. Will post again if it doesnt work.
Still having those restarts. Really irritating. Froze and rebooted 4 5 times today morning while I was on call and trying to message. I reflashed reinstalled everything. I used both Utility 1.10 and 1.20. Im getting reboots even the stock ROM after using the Utility. I am confused which Utility I should be using. I had no issue of rebooting before flashing using Utility. Can someone give me exact procedure to reflash so that i know i am not missing out anything.

you might need to do a clean install.
- what version of TWRP are you using (anything other than 2.4 should be fine)?
- to perform the clean install, mount system, then try wiping everything (system, factory reset, & internal storage) - DO NOT WIPE external SD (I presume this is where you store the ROM files
- after wiping, reboot recovery, then install whichever 4.2.2 ROM you want follow by the GApps (use the 3/2013 version)

Since TWRP wasnt working for me, I tried flashing with CWM recovery by hashcode. Still had reboots. I was using TWRP 2.3.2.3
When you say wipe everything, does it include 'modem' and 'pds'? Saw these two options also inside Mount/Format menu of CWM recovery.
Also there was an option 'Mount sdcard' (internal I suppose) but when i click it nothing happens it remains as Mount sdcard. Rest of it changes from Mount to Unmount. Is there some problem with that?
Do I have to just Mount system only? Also after rebooting recovery do I have to mount system again?
I try again as you said meanwhile.

nope, just system/factory reset/internal storage.
yes, make sure everything is mounted (checked) so that they read "unmount"

Did exactly like said. Got into CWM recovery. Mounted system. Formatted system, data, cache, sdcard. Did factory reset and wiped the caches. Then rebooted recovery. Then installed the ROM, 3/13 gapps, gsm fix. Reboot system. Still no use. I got 2 reboots in 5 mins in the ROM. I checked the md5 of the files and its ok. Dont know what else to try?

are you flashing a kernel at the same time?
I would recommend trying a basic 4.2.2 ROM right now - like unoffical AOKP.
another problem could be the GApps or GSM fix. try installing just the ROM without the GApps perhaps?
carbon was very solid too. unfortunately, I can't help you with the GSM fix, as I am CDMA.

PS. Should I flash another kernel with the ROM just in case ? I have been only installing ROM and gapps only till now.

Wiping data shouldn't take long at all. When people say wipe data/factory reset when changing roms it doesn't mean wipe the whole sd card. Do you have the latest recovery version? For CWM it is 6.0.3.6 or 6.0.3.7. For TWRP it is 2.6.3.0
The correct procedure is:
Wipe data/factory reset (NOT sd card)
Wipe cache/dalvik cache
Install Rom
Install Gapps
Install SU (optional)
Reboot

Redownload the ROM. Once you've downloaded just install it and wipe cache and dalvik and it should be fine.
Su, in full, Super SU is root made by Chainfire. The normal one in cm is made by Koush but you don't need to flash the Chainfire one, only do that if you have root problems

Maybe you have to flash a different pit-file first. Some updates from Samsung repartioned the system and other ROMs are not compatible with it. Please check for the size of you system. If it is any bigger that 8.9GB, you have to flash the according pit file first.

The best thing you could do right now is to reflash the rom again , and make sure your doing a full wipe , cache/dalvik/factory reset or if your using a philz recovery go ahead and choose Factory reset/Wipe to install a new rom" option or something like that.or either you can use tamirda's Superwipe from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2379104. then install the rom and i hope this fix your problem.

very strange!
So, I got jealous of my brother... I too wanted a custom rom for my GT-i9500... I downloaded "pac_jfltexx-Black-Power-Edition_20140106"....
Downloaded Gapps.. After I did all the steps, which were:
1. Wipe cache
2. Wipe Data/factory reset
3. Wipe dalvik cache
4. Format /system
Then I selected, install zip from external SD card... I saw that, it said during installition, "Installing for i9505", and I was like whaa!?!? Afterwards, I did a search on the internet that what happens when we format system, it said that you ought to install a ROM because the system is without an OS..
After realizing my mistake, I STILL went ahead and installed it like a retard xD..
And now again I did all the above steps, somehow I have the CWM 6.0.3.3 still installed and opened right here... I am not able to do anything on my phone... Please tell me how to overcome this situation...
I searched on the internet, I found out that I can still install any ROM. I'm downloading KingCobra ROM build 5...
Now what do I do?
P.S.- I have a nandroid backup, but its not on my phone's sd card or the ext sd card, its on my computer, can I do anything with that backup and use odin to flash the backup?
- Download one firmware of Sammobile good for ur i9500
- Full wipe(data,system, cache and dalvick cache) in Recovery
- Go to Download Mode
- Flash the new firmware with Odin
- Enjoy it

I have an idea.. I am going to put the downloaded ROM on the extSDcard via a Card Reader, and then maybe I can flash it? Or I can put my nandroid backup there?
Will this work?
Alright, so I put the KingCobra on the extSDcard via card reader, and I flashed it after wiping cache, data/facotory reset, system /format, and wipe dalvik cache....
I flashed it. But I didn't flash the Gaaps since it wasn't written there...
My phone proceeded the display "Samsung GT-i9500", then the music played of Samsung, and right now it's just there, the LED giving off blue light, getting dim and bright, I am just there for the last 5 minutes..
P.S.- The zip of KingCobra was of 1.4 GB...I downloaded the build 5 from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2497087
It's still stuck, what to do? Or just sit back since it's a big ROM?
Finlyno Had
Okay, I read on the KingCobra forum place on XDA. It said, that I'll have to flash a pit file. And many other instructions which I didn't understand. The startup sucked my whole phone's battery, and the only change was that the LED started to blink in Green color as well as Blue... Right now, my phone is just lying, I'm charging the battery, and it's playing the Red LED.
Please help, I don't know what to do.

I had a nandroid backup. I restored my phone. But now stuck at the samsung boot logo... Please help.. :crying:
I did a factory rest, flashed the restore, wiped cache, wiped dalvik cache, now stuck at samsung logo again :crying: :crying: :crying:
Pretty sure you were told in the first reply you got to go get a stock rom from Samfirmware & flash it with Odin to get a 'clean slate' & to then either re-root your phone and try flashing the custom rom again (and maybe read the flashing instructions for the rom in question this time) or restore a backup.
Oh...Look...That's exactly what you were told (and you haven't done it)
You clearly have no idea what you're doing (how to recover in particular, and obviously how to flash the rom in question as well), I strongly suggest you do what was suggested (flash a stock rom) if you want your phone working again anytime soon.
If you have philz recovery, then you can attach a memory stick with an usb otg cable, and make a restore from there, or install a new rom

Did you flash Omega from external SD??
TWRP recovery is the newest??? (2.7.1.0)
Yes I did, I have the latest twrp recovery installed no joy , flash few times same problem, using different rom, probably try different recovery later, is the stock rom With root?
Using twrp 2.7.2.0, 64gb sandisk card
Make sure you check wipe /system data when doing a complete wipe or it's not classed a a fresh install.

For Omega v18 you need to do a factory reset in twrp, than wipe cache, dalvik cache before you flash the ROM. Do that and than report back.
Thanks, got it working really nice Rom
