hello, i am new to this forum and please excuse me if i posted in the wrong place. so here is my problem:
i have a samsung galaxy s4 gt-i9500 with cm11 on it. i wanted to flash a new kernel. so i downloaded perseus 19.1 kernel, flashed it, but when i rebooted i got this error: unfortunately the process com.android.phone has stopped. i click ok but it pops up within a quarter of a second. i tried factory data reset, wipe cache partition and wipe dalvik cache but it keeps popping up. what should i do?
Maybe the kernel isn't compatible. There is not much point in flashing a new kernel on that rom anyway.

This is my first post on XDA, since new members cant post in the developer forum, i had no other choice than to post the question here, instead of the original post, please be kind to me
So as the title says I have installed the newest release of the foxhound custom ROM for the samsung s4 i9505. I have read the thread, and the solutions posted there is to flash a custom kernel (I have tried multiple of those).
Device: S4 i9505
Custom recovery: CWM
So this is what I have tried:
Reinstalled the rom, Factory reset + wipe of cache and delwik.
Flashed different kernels, Factory reset + wipe of cache and delwik.
Reinstalled rom (Factory reset + wipe of cache and delwik) and flashed kernel at the same time.
WiFi was working on the Foxhound 0.1 rom before I tried to install the latest (12.6) rom from CM 10.1 (Wich all versions of keeps giving me a error 7, even after I remove the check from the script.)
The other method I found, was to reinstall the Original Samsung ROM (4-11 times) until it worked, then root, flash new Foxhound 0.4 ROM and then the new Kernel (Adam). But I wanted to post here before trying this.
The WiFi toggle is greyed out, making me suspect that the device simply does not register that there is a WiFi chip at all, and that is a kernel problem, no?
Got it working after a long struggle.
Here is what I did:
Factory reset
Wiped chache
Formated system, chache and data
Installed Fochound ROM 0.4
Factory reset + wipe chache / dalwik
Flashed Wanam's Kernel, adam did not work. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2281738)
Shut off phone, not restart.
Turned phone on.
Tried so many combinations, and in the end it worked. Can't believe that it didn't work when I used CWM to reboot, but rather when I shut it off and turned it on manually, maybe a coincidence?
Tipe in dialer next time *#0011# left click,wifi,off and you will haw.

You need to wipe data, system, and the caches before you flash the rom.

After you flash/install a stock fw or a custom rom, you should do a factory reset and ur bootloop will go away.

hello, i have done this also. still there
it still gets stuck at Samsung screen

Well, I'm not positive about that variant but if the bootloader is locked you would need a rom or kernel with loki or you would need a custom recovery with auto-loki. If you look at the kernel you flash instead of boot.img in the zip it will be boot.lok. Not sure if this is the case for your phone but you should look into it if you haven't already.
You probably also have a bad download..please check your download rom md5 make sure they're matching ..if not re-download ..
Hey guys,
I'm not a total scrub at flashing roms and there's still a bunch of things that I don't understand. I'm pretty positive that I flashed Slimrom correctly but here's the situation.
Started on 4.2.2 Slimrom
Reboot to TWRP recovery
Format factory reset/format data, system, cache, dalvik cache
Flash Slimrom 4.3 stable build 1
Successfully reboots into 4.3
Okay now here's the weird part.
The first time I rebooted back into recovery to flash gapps. After I flashed gapps and tried to reboot into the rom, the phone freezes at the screen with "google" and the unlock sign on the bottom. The only way I can get it to boot into the rom again is if I reformat/reset EVERYTHING (including format data) and reflash 4.3. After a few tries of messing around with not wiping dalvik/cache and stuff I realized that even if I don't flash gapps it still freezes on the google screen. So here's my main problem
After flashing 4.3 slimrom, the phone boots into the rom only once. If I try restarting my phone it freezes on the "google" screen.
Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
Just to clarify it's a LG Google Nexus 4 mako.
Sorry if I'm being redundant. I just want to give as much detail as possible. If you need anymore info let me know!
Thanks

Are you flashing the right Gapps package? Be sure you are flashing the latest 4.3 one.

Yep I'm positive. I redownloaded both the 4.3 rom and gapps package multiple times just to make sure. Also it doesn't reboot even if I don't flash gapps. Doesn't boot at all if I flash both the rom then gapps at the same time.

then, wipe data/factory reser and flash the stock rom. the rom might be the problem

It works for everyone else though. It's Slimrom 4.3 stable build 1.
Rom isn't the problem.Slim rom beta 1(4.3) is super stable. Use any version of twrp recovery other than 2.6.1.0 and wipe system+data,flash slim rom,flash slim gapps,reboot.
Note: if you flashed franco kernel then this may be the issue for your bootloop also you may want to upgrade your bootloader and radio to 4.3 versions(bootloader more important)
On flashing a Custom Rom, my phone gets stucked with continous FC ("Unfortunately Phone Crashed","Press OK") just after the phone boots.
I had faced the same problem earlier so someone on XDA suggested to use twrp recovery. Then i flashed the purity rom and it worked fine, but then as you may know now, as PA is out, so flashed it and again i'm getting continuous fc error....
currently i'm using purity rom, stock kernel and twrp recovery (2.6.3.3)
I would flash back to a stock 4.2.2 and start over. I find that this is the only way I can install certain roms.

Strange. Are you updating the bootloader and radio before flashing a 4.4 rom?
Are you doing a factory reset???? And flashing a proper gapps after ROM? You should always do this when going from one ROM to another. Sometimes a manual format of /system is necessary also.
no i am not updating my bootloader and radio before flashing (rather didn't know if i had to update them,fyi i bought my nexus 4 this september)....and yes i'm doing a factory reset (using the wipe option in twrp recovery which warns clearing of data, cache and dalvik memory)
Hi!
I use Google edition s4 ROM, and i really like it. But when it receives an update do i have to factory reset everytime? Im on 20150614, with CWM 6,0,4,7.
Id really really appreciate a fast answer
Also, if i wish to switch Kernel from Alucard to Googy-Max, is it ok to Wipe dalvik cache, and then flash kernel?
EDIT: the rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2557353
bump?
Dirty flashes should be OK, however the ROM thread you linked to should have provided the answer. Regardless, you really should change that recovery to TWRP. Clockworkmod is no longer being supported and people are having difficulty installing some custom ROMs with it.
Wiping cache is fine when changing kernels.
Thanks for the help
Btw. I dont know how to change recoveries? XD. Is it Just using Odin like with cwm? And do i have to remove cwm first / wipe device?
No, u can just flash ur new recovery through cwm
Okay. What is the preferred TWRP? Do you possibly have a link ?
Asking because i cannot find the S4 i9505 on their site?
EDIT: I managed to install it via the App they've made. It is much nicer than CWM. Thanks for the help both of you
Ok ive tried to flash 2 different kernels multiple times now.
Tried Googy-Max, and the phone wont boot android ?
Tried Hulk, and it took forever to boot, then rebooted immediately etc.
Am i flashing kernels wrong?, i did dalvik/cache wipe after the flash
