Here is a story about me and my phone:
I'm using this rom for about 2-3 months and it's great!! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1817793
But when I was updating some apps with the Play Store I got error 492.
Googled it and I found a thread on XDA and it said that I had to clear some caches.
So I did that and a Dalvik Cache wipe and I fixed permissions.
But it ended in an endless boot. So wiped everything and I did as an extra a Task 29. I flashed my rom installed INT2EXT+. The first boot after I flashed INT2EXT+ something weird happened: The WiFi just didn't turn on. I just turned it on but the slider bounced back after 5 seconds. Reflashed still that problem. So here comes the question how can I fix it?
Wi-Fi issues are sometimes connected to too small system partition. Perhaps caused by bad blocks. Make sure your system partition is bigger than needed. I usually add 10/15 mb above what the rom requires

Did what you said but when I let it start up I just see just a FC of Settings that's it. :crying::crying:
I rebooted it several times en every time it boots up I see ''Android is Upgrading''.
did you do a 'wipe data' because although the partitioning will clear out all teh nand, there may be stuff on the sd-ext/fat that are left over. a wipe data / factory reset clears those out too.

Yes, it's called A2SD you will have to flash something trough CWM and partition sd card. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1716124

Please Please help me!!!! I'm turning pretty desparate by now!
just saying but:

That's because int2ex need its own script for wiping dalvik, using the one provided with CWM will cause bootloops: both of you can find the right one on the first post of croniccorey's thread. Just search for "Dalvik-Cache Wipe Tool" then make it run from install zip from sdcard entry.

If you have int2ex installed then download and run that zip because if you use normal CWM wipe-cache-dalvik, you'll get a bootloop. this may help you?

hey guys.. I rooted my GT-I9500 and am running on wanamlite ROM 4.0.. and the stock kernel.. recently I started getting crash reports every minute saying "unfortunately youube has closed". I tried finding a solution online, but nothing really helped.. in the end I wiped cache and tried doing a factory reset from recovery (philz recovery). suddenly I realized that it was erasing data on my memory card too, and in panic, I pulled it out manually.. after this when I switched the phone back on, the memory card seemed fine, but the crash message issue hadn't gone away.. so I flashed the official ROM via ODIN and re rooted my phone and flashed wanamlite 4.0 using CWM recovery.. now the SD card refuses to show up.. after hours of trial and error one method I found was going into recovery and mounting the SD card from the option "mounts and storage". but this works only for sometime and soon its back to the SD card not responding.. once it stops responding, gallery and camera doesn't open up (freezes) and the music player has no songs in it.. so I've to go into recovery every time this happens and mount via recovery.. can anyone please help?

Okay, so I feel like I've looked everywhere and tried everything for this problem with my Nexus 7. The closest thing I found was this:
(Google: Nexus 7 2012 rebooting reverts back to previous state)(I can't post outside links as I am a new member)
and there was no followup reply, and the thread was closed.
Here's my problem (I want to be very detailed in case I missed something):
I've had Cyanogenmod 11 on my Nexus 7 for a long time (I think I started with M1 release). I recently installed the M7 release after previous nightly and it was working so smooth that I had finally decided there was no need to install nighties anymore. Everything was going fine until the night after when I noticed it kept rebooting, so I reverted it back to the nightly I had before (June 11th?) because I assumed it was probably something bad with the update. Except it did the same thing, rebooting after a couple minutes, which is weird because it never did that with this nightly. There was never enough time to download the nightlies before it reboots so I tried downloading them on my laptop and then just transferring them to my nexus via usb. I put it in the cmupdate folder so that I could quickly go to settings and press install (as it can see the update from there). It rebooted to install, but it went into cwm with what appears that nothing happened, and I usually never see cwm when updating this way. So I figured, while I'm here, I could just "install zip" and find that zip I just transferred and install, right? Nope. The zip mysteriously vanished, yet the other two updates were still there (M7 and the previous nightly). So I just rebooted just to try the process again, maybe the file transfer didn't work. Same thing happened. So I went to cwm and tried wiping cache, nothing. Wiped dalvik cache, nothing. So I went and did it, wiped data/factory reset, that did NOTHING, as in I rebooted and everything was still there.
So I got to the point where I just wanted to see if I could just revert back to stock so I have a place to start from, maybe contemplate on just staying there for a while where there shouldn't be problems. So I got that all set up with fastboot, got the latest 4.4.3 image, unarchived until I could get to the flashall.bat I ran that and it was successful. Okay now I can just boot into that, right? Suddenly I see the cyanogenmod boot graphic. What happened? Even all of my apps are still there. Still freezing and rebooting.
I tried reverting to stock manually by erasing then formating everything that I can, flashed bootloader (grouper 4.23), flashed zip, locked bootloader, unlocked bootloader (trying to erase as much as I can). This did nothing, still cyanogenmod. I tried a third time while rebooting to bootloader with each step. Nothing. I tried doing a factory reset within cyanogenmod, but when I press the "erase everything" button it doesn't lead anywhere, so I could never get that to start the process. I also tried doing the erasing and formatting from cwm (which isn't being overwritten, as it seems, by all the attempts at flashing stock?), nothing.
I was curious. I uninstalled Netflix because it was right there in my dock. Then I rebooted myself. When it came back up, Netflix was still there. I tried various things, also going back to locking the bootloader and rebooting the bootloader, it still said it was unlocked. So I came to the conclusion that literally nothing was being written or committed to the sdcard no matter what I do.
I did some more research and found that article up top. So I tried uninstalling some apps because it said it may have something to do with a third-party app misbehaving (seems a bit extreme, I'll do it anyways), but there's never enough time to erase everything before it reboots. It also said to try to get it into safemode. I think I might have gotten there once but it still rebooted (which makes me think that it didn't get to safemode), the rest of the times it wouldn't even get to the lockscreen.
What I'm currently attempting is to see if I can get it into safemode, or I'm trying to uninstall or stop/clear data for every single app with an intentional reboot each time.
Anyone got any idea what's going on? Is it maybe a bad sector, or worse, bad sdcard?
Gonna bump this. Still no luck on my part.
Anyone have any idea?
Perhaps somehow something got triggered to prevent anything being written to the sdcard? (Kinda like the lock switch on actual sdcards?) Is everything I've been doing going straight to memory since everything reverts back after a reboot? That's the only explanation I can think of.
Perhaps there's more I could try. I'm only moderately knowledgeable with things like fastboot and roms, so maybe someone with more experience might have more insight. Please, chime in.
Thanks in advance,
JM

I'm at the same point since last time. Trying to nuke the hell out of cyanogenmod but it won't go away!
This just outright baffles me!
Try this out format /system /cache /data with twrp to f2fs
If it doesn't boot then cheers you got out if the loop
Then adb sideload an f2fs ROM and kernel them flash

I have clockworkmod recovery v6.0.4.3 probably from installing cyanogenmod, however formating any of those partitions does literally nothing. I'm not sure what file system it formats it to, but the process seemed too quick for a full format.
I cannot flash a different recovery because... well... it doesn't remember me flashing a recovery (even when nothing "fails" when flashing). So I'm stuck with whatever is already on my internal storage. Nothing is writing to the sdcard, and nothing is being deleted.

I did. I didn't know that was possible until now.
But still, changing the file system or formating anything doesn't do anything after I reboot. I even checked after I changed the file system to f2fs in twrp to see the "current file system" when changing the partitions again, but it says it's ext4 still.
I tried repairing system, which processed quickly. However, trying to repair cache and data led to an error. Perhaps this might mean something? or is this normal?

Well, I have Paranaoid Android 4.4.4, not Cyanogen, and everything seemed ok until I installed Cloudmagic (and maybe Busybox?) that poped up a Play Store error (I don't remember which one), and suddenly all the problems began. It started to reboots, rebooted so many times that I decided to flash another ROM... but this wasn't possible.
My recovery is TWRP, so we can discard Cyanogen, ParanoidAndroid, CMW and TWRP as guilty, I think.

Hi,
I want to install the ROM here on my Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-I9505). I rooted and installed CM on it about 4 months ago, but since have forgotten anything about the process except for towelroot lol. My phone is currently running jflte snapshot M10 ROM for CM. Unfortunately, I have grown quite sick of it as I find I have to restart my phone once, maybe twice a day for everything to run smoothly. I run into problems where the WiFi likes to get stuck saying 'Turning on..'. Ive also been having problems with Google Maps and GPS lately and havent been able to rely on it, possibly its an issue its having with CM. I want to have the fresh Lollipop feel on my phone without any problems if possible. The only trouble is I dont know how to get there. Can anyone help me? Ive completely forgotten the process needed and when I try to look for it on here I am overwhelmed with things I need to do, which version I need to use etc etc. If anyone would be able to help me achieve this it would be greatly appreciated. In the end I just want a nice Lollipop android phone that doesn't have problems on my current S4 (Id rather not have to get a new phone at least until December ) I'm pretty sure I dont have a custom kernel or anything like that as it mentioned in some pages that I will need to get one I think? I also have philz CWM installed.
You have Philz installed, so you don't need to root again. Download the ROM and follow the instructions on the page.

It also mentioned to make sure I have the latest modem for my variant, how do I check/update that?
In regards to the kernel (which has a link on the same page), what do I do with that?
I don't have the latest modem for my I9505 and that ROM works perfectly fine. Where you've been on a custom ROM for a while finding out which modem you're supposed to use may be difficult. That's also why I recommend not worrying about it, unless you need to.

Ok thanks. In regards to the kernel that is linked on the page, I guess I would be at an advantage if I downloaded and installed that too. How do I install it?
If' we're talking the same GPE ROM, and I think we are, the kernel is included in the ROM download. You'll be prompted to select a kernel when you run the install through the recovery.

Ok thanks a lot!
So process:
Backup data/photos etc
Nandroid backup
Full wipe using philz?
Flash ROM
Done?
You've got it.
When you are prompted to select the kernel, use the Googy Max kernel. The stock kernel sometimes causes random reboots. Also, on first boot the S4 will sit for a fair amount of time before prompting you to set a language. THIS IS NORMAL. It's because Android 5.0.x uses Art instead of Dalvik, and has to compile the apps the first time around.
In other words, after rebooting, just be patient.

No, they are gone forever.
How is that even possible that you wiped them? Wiping in the custom recovery never touches your internal storage by default. So you have done it yourself. You probably did a factory reset from within android itself. Never do that again. Use the custom recovery for wiping only and you never will have this problem again.

Are you sure about that? It happened the first time I flashed a ROM. Wiped cache, wiped Dalvik through CWM. Never did a factory reset. No need for caps.

No it's not possible for it to happen without you doing so. Unless you encrypted your phone or something.
ps removed the caps
The rom he installed has an aroma installer which offers the option to do a simple wipe (Dalvik, cache and data), no wipe (Dirty flash) and a factory reset (which also wipes the internal storage).
By default it is set on factory reset option.
It also says in red letters that this option is recommended.
So maybe he left it on factory reset (since it was also recommended) , instead of changing it to simple wipe, and that wiped the whole phone, including the internal storage.
Will a software that recovers deleted files not work? Since the phone wasn't encrypted.
It would if Windows saw the internal storage as a drive. Due to MTP it doesn't. He'll have to do a search, but there was another S4 owner who lost his photos and was trying to get them back. I don't know if a solution was ever found.

If that's the case then shame on the developer. A factory reset in a custom recovery should leave the internal storage intact.

No it's impossible. Once it's gone the files are permanently gone. Not even a professional company can restore them. That's because of TRIM that Android has from version 4.3.

It's not in the recovery. It's in the aroma installer. Those are 2 different things.
Besides, there is a description, under each setting, of what each one does.
@Lennyz1988: Perhaps you should bring this up with the developers of the ROM and see what they say. I suspect they have a very good reason for wiping the internal storage, and my gut instinct tells me it has to do with the Android folder on there.
On the flip side, thanks for the homework you gave me. I have to look into what TRIM is all about, as my last device was powered by Gingerbread.
I'm just going to jump straight into it, I've been having some annoying issues with my phone after flashing the Omega ROM. The main issues I have are the extremely slow boot times and storage issues.
Whenever I bootup the phone, it takes a very long time to bootup, longer than the stock ROM. Takes about 4 minutes. Occasionally, it will say "Android is upgrading" or something along the lines of that. I flashed this mod so it would be faster, not slower.
The issue is storage. Prior to flashing, I used 13 GB/16GB of internal storage. I backed up my phone but all those back ups are on my PC. I apparently have less than 400 MB on my phone now, even though I deselected every Omega app and Samsung bloatware with the Aroma installer. Even worse is that some apps that were able to be moved the SD card are no longer able to do that.

This is a Q&A thread and this kind of post is irrelevant here.

So I flashed TWRP and wipe cache, dalvik cache, system, data and preload. Then I flashed the ROM. It works now, all I'm doing right now is restoring all my apps using Google's restoration thing.
