Aroma Installer Issue - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Need assistance. I've been trying to install some ROMs and most are working but there are other ROMs that no matter what I do, i cant install them. I get stuck on the samsung logo. most would say it's an aroma issue. i tried flashing the ROM without wipe again but still I get stuck in the logo. any help will be greatly appreciated.

It's not problem of your device if the ROMS that you are trying to install have aroma issue. Flash other ROM and solved :highfive:

Maybe those roms are not for your device?

Need help with [ROM] MIUI based Elite ROM v9.6a Multilanguage 2012-02-09

Hi there guys!!!
I've been trying to install this ROM but i can't pass the 1st phase.
The thing is that, when i try to downgrade my ROM version, it just doesn't finish the unpacking process.
I'm trying to downgrade to B163 but nothing. (tried with B138 too - same happens)
I'm using MIUI-2.1.20 Kernel 2.6.35.7.
I've tried with all the wipes, data/factory reset.
Any help, please?
Ty
i also tried to install that rom. but i managed to downgrade the official rom to kernel version .32. after i installed elite rom my phone wont turn on. i have the infinite reboot loop problem.
i installed many custom roms before so i know what i'm doing. but i just cant get it to work. after 6-10~ hours of trying i gave up. now i'm using official 2.3.5 rooted again.
i guess i wouldn't have this problem if i never installed the officaal 2.3.5 update.
i also installed the 2.2.2 rom 3 times without success.
any other ideas how could i fix this?
to"SirLittleJohn". did u tried to wipe data and cache in recovery before downgrading?
Unfortunatly i can't help you with your problem...
Yea, i did.

Have you tried to install it without the battery? Just plug it in without it and give it a go. And try changing the install media (internal/external sdcard).

EDIT:

I still need to check some thins and search a lil bit more cause im getting FC at start cause of the message app i think. And another thing i need to fix is that the phone's acting like i don't have any SIM (doesn't ask for PIN).
But not now lol-
Once again, TY!!!!! <3
EDIT2: Ok, now everything seems OK unless 1 thing: now it doesn't get signal with a SIM from another mobile company. It's not unlocked anymore. Any way to solve this?
Once again, ty

[Bricked] Please Help! (In Pain)

Hi guys,
Okay title might be a little exaggerated haha but...
Recently broke my hand and one handed computing really sucks. So i grabbed my transformer from the closet that I hadn't used in months. It was acting pretty weird, very slow, and just unpleasant to use. I had previously had it rooted and had a kernal and rom on it, but wanted to revert to stock and try ICS. I really forgot how to do everything so I tried to use this guide:
http://theunlockr.com/2011/11/28/how-to-unroot-and-remove-cwm-recovery-on-asus-transformer/
Downloaded both files. and tried to get into clockwork but kept getting a big ! mark. Gooogled around and found that I could download recovery instller from the market. That got me to be able to get into recovery... I did notive that I couldn't get out of recovery and had to do cold boots to get past it. Still tried it though. When I finally got to uploading those files I still couldn't get ouit of recovery and cold booting just freezes.
Can someone PLEASE help me. I really want to be able to use the comptuter without suffering.
I just want to get it working and hopefully get to ICS.
Would not might using a custom rom if there is a stable ICS release u guys recommend.
If someone can step by step me i would be extremely grateful.
Thanks alot.
Alex

How did yo install cwm recovery? You mentioned RecoveryInstaller, I hope you didn't use Acer Recovery Installer.
The RecoveryInstaller for the TF is not available on the market. you have a link to the one you use?
or did yo use ROM Manager to install CWM, what version of CWM do you have, ect.
yea i used rom manager sorry
and i think it was 5.5.0.4 cwm
the exact thing happened to me, do you know if your tf is compatible with nvflash?
This *might* help

1. if flashing two different roms, you have to wipe data. if you dont wipe, then youll get a bootloop.
2. bad download of a rom/kernel.
3. the theme/mod isnt compatible or a bad download.
4. rarely, stuff corrupts.
5. root applications with stuff thats not compatible with your rom/kernel.

Thank you for the reply...

My question is how to debug or find out where it went wrong... what made that application is not compatible with my ROM/Kernel....

watching a log cat via adb while the device is forced into one of these "bootloops". maybe even a dmseg. btw, are you sure that you have root? can you describe a situation, what you were doing with what root app, in detail how a "bootloop" happens? can you describe the bootloop and how you recover from one?

When i use Rom toolbox pro font installer to install new fonts or change the status bar using the build in icons...

those options probably arent compatible due to android version, phone model, or rom(if works on another rom). there could be filesystem differences that make things incompatible. not all hacks/mods work on all devices. this all would cause bootloops, the way you describe it. have someone else with a nexus 4 confirm if they work or cause bootloops.
I already spoke with the developer regrading these boot loop problems... he has provided some solutions for it...
I have try those workarounds and lets see whether it fixes the problem or not....

Used an older version through odin
This ended up being sorted for me, as it just booted after about a half hour. But how, if you hit this red screen can you reflash? You aren't getting to dowload mode or recovery with that perma-red screen
lol, I spoke too soon again, was reflashing twrp after going back to a stock rom, this happened again for me only its not budging from red screen now. I can't get into download mode as I mentioned above too
hey guys I have the same
the phone dont even switch off
how did you fix it?
edit SOLUTION : I managed to reboot the phone with adb
add reboot
then I flashed the version 3.0.0.0 of TWRP and it worked !

I am having the same problem. Odin is stuck in "Setup Connection"
Do you have any ideas?
Thanks
You have probably flashed a wrong kernel.
The solution is to flash the right kernel for your device.
I was flashing S7 root on S7Edge

Hi Guys,
I flashed everything stock after having some issues with encrypton and a custom ROM.
After flashing twrp-3.1.1-0-herolte.img with Odin 3.17 I only get a red screen when booting into recovery and the phone won't even boot the OS.
Any idea how to get TWRP working so I can get back to a custom ROM?
Thanks,
Nicolas
Edit: Hero2lte worked

Lol. I have the very same problem: Flashed The Galaxy Project ROM and hit "update bootloader etc...." and now all I have is this red screen..... - Though the ROM worked for a couple of hours, but when I tried to enter the recovery I stock with this red screen. Cant even go into download mode...
Any help? How did you solved this issue?
I didn't, ****ty Rom just bricked it.
Just reflash the recovery or flash stock. I can't, my pc doesn't recognize my s7 anymore.
He doesn't even bother to mention that bug...

Same here. Only in my case I use this ROOM for weeks

Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge stuck in boot loop

So after downloading the stock ROM for the device, and flashing it using Odin it's stuck in boot loop and I don't know what to do.
PS: I flashed a Custom ROM and then flashed the stock ROM after a while.
I fixed the problem.

I just waited until the battery died and then kept trying to boot into the recovery, then did a wipe data and a reboot and waited.
Here is the video where I fixed the phone:
