**First off, I am not responsible for anything you do from my post that messes your device.**
Screenshots in second post.
Noob questions will be ignored. Ok here we go.
Pre-requisites
1 - Working knowledge of how to flash via Odin (I ain't teaching ya)
2 - sdcard that has the bootloader fix, HC rom and any other needed files on it already (makes last couple of steps faster)
3 - The ROM from here
Instructions
1 - Backup your stuff.
2 - Backup your stuff
3 - Download the needed stuff from the attachments
4 - Download the needed Froyo (yep you read that right) rom to 'restock' the device from here and extract the enclosed tar file
** JJ7 ROM here for those that have reboot issues with the roto JME ROM. **
5 - Start Odin and select the downloaded .pit file for the PIT section and make sure re-partition IS checked
6 - Select the .tar file that your extracted from the Froyo rom download for the PDA section (it has an MD5 extension added to the end, you can remove it)
7 - Attach tab in download mode (power + volume down) and click the start button when Odin is ready and wait (about 3-5 mins)
8 - Allow tab to boot and click through welcome screens (don't worry about connecting to network or account or anything as it wont last) and take a trip down memory lane (mmmm Froyo) ... Done? Good, run the bootloader patch and patch if needed and reboot.
9 - Open Odin again and select the p1000-mck-r3-ext4-cwm.tar file from the attachments and add it to the PDA section, no .pit file this time
10 - Make sure re-partition IS NOT checked and connect your tab (in download mode) and click start and wait (30 secs) and tab will reboot
11 - Reboot will get stuck at bootlogo, power down and reboot into recovery (power + volume up) and the EXT4 conversion should start (you need an sdcard in the external slot) ... wait for it to finish, it will take a while, when done wipe data/cache/dalvik and reboot into Froyo once again and skip through the welcome stuff
12 - Reboot into recovery with the sdcard in the external slot and select "install from sdcard" -> "choose zip" and select the HC beta rom and flash it
13 - Flash a Froyo radio from this thread if you want the 3G working. (JK3 works well with my GT-p1000 from Bell)
14 - Reboot into Honeycomb goodness! Reboot again for good measure.
Have fun!!!

A little more info would be helpful. Is your tab GSM? What is happening instead?
Yes.when pressing power and volume up,there is after a few seconds a flah of frizzly colours across the screen and it get stuck with the boot logo.Tab can go in download modus,but not in recovery.
Also it doesn´t charge anymore (grey battery symbol).
Are you holding the buttons longer than needed maybe? Let go of both buttons as soon as you see it power on. As for your grey battery, leave your tab plugged into the wall charger for four hours then unplug, reenter download mode and start from scratch. Sounds like either you started to flash with little battery left or the CMW recovery didn't take and need to be reflashed.
Also you didn't specify or put it in your signature but you are using a GT-P1000 right? This si not for any Sprint or Verizon or even a LTAM verison, just ATT/Euro versions of the tab.
I'm kinda itchin to try this out. I've yet to download the roms though.
Just wondering, how's the current HC running on the gtab? (performance, battery-wise)
Can you be more specific ?? Dont undestand how to do nothing

Slim,
One thing that is special, is it will let those who want to use Google Body run it.
At this time GB does not run Google Body.
Other then those apps that are HC specific, your right.
Follow Steps at own Risk
MIUI or CM7 Installation:
1.) Depending on what you want to install, download either the I9000 Miui 1.11.11 Rom or the CM 7.1 Stable Rom.
2.) Download the Glitch-V13-DEV-TelusFascinate+ kernel. I chose the Medium Leakage Kernel.
3.) Move both ZIP (ROM and Kernel) files over to the Root of your Internal SD Card (USB, Bluetooth, etc)
4.) Make sure you DISABLE all Lagfixs if you have it enabled.
IMPORTANT:
Froyo 2.2.x (Not Tested):
We need to be able to boot into CWM. Easiest way to do this if you are on Froyo is to Flash the SpeedMod kernel or the Voodoo Kernel. I suggest following all steps which includes installing Darky 9.2 just to be sure. I haven't tried flashing Miui or CM7 from right from the SpeedMod CWM.
Gingerbread 2.3.x (Tested):
If you running a custom ROM that is based off Gingerbread you will be required to flash the Darky Resurrection Edition 9.2 (Froyo) via Odin. This is to insure that the proper boot loaders updated before installing MIUI or CM7. Download the Darky 9.2 package from the above URL, the ONLY files that we need from here are: Odin3 v1.3.exe, darky_odin.tar.md5 & s1_odin_20100512.pit
Follow Ficeto's Instructions below to flash Darky 9.2 and remember to backup all your stuff before starting.
-------------------------------------
5.) Next step is to get your phone into Download Mode. If you are unsure please search the forums here.
6.) Now, open ODIN and connect the phone to the computer. ODIN will say 'Added'.
7.) Tick the 'Repartition' option, and then select the following files in ODIN (from the folder you extracted the base package in):
[*]PDA: darky_odin.tar.md5
[*]PIT: s1_odin_20100512.pit
8.) Press the Start button and wait for it to finish. Once it finishes, disconnect the phone from the computer after the phone reboots.
9.) After ODIN completes procedure and the phone reboots, a screen will come on the phone with 'Android system recovery <2e>' written at the top, and the following text will be written at the bottom:
"E:Invalid command argument
--Install from package--
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
#MANUAL MODE#
-- Appling Muti CSC...
Installing Muti CSC"
Don't worry about this.
10.) From here the next step is to reboot your phone, your POWER / SELECT button will not work so you will have to pull the battery out. Once you put the battery back in and start up the phone, it should automatically boot into CWM Recovery.
-------------------------------------
11.) Next we want to do a COMPLETE WIPE (Factory), also deleting Partition Cache and the Delvik Cache.
12.) Once the phone has been cleansed, you want to make your way to the option "Select ZIP from SD Card" and select the ROM zip file located on the SD Card. Start the Installation.
NOTE: Once you start the installation, your phone will reboot part way through, then will continue the rest of the installation. The total time for this installation could take up to 10 minutes, so please be patient and do not touch the phone!
13.) DONE!! You have now successfully Flashed either Miui or CM7 on your Fascinate!.
14.) Actually, one more Step which I have ONLY tested with Miui 1.11.11:
Once you have checked a few things out, we are going to want to Flash the Glitch-V13-DEV-TelusFascinate+ kernel. So boot back into CWM Recovery and Flash it the same way you flashed the ROM.
Optional:
BASEBAND UPDATE:
I would also suggest Flashing the I9000UGJK3 Baseband or another of your liking because I had crappy cell signal with the Stock Miui Baseband. Just download it as you normally would, move the ZIP to the internal SD Card, boot into CMW recovery and flash it. Click on the Link Here and find the modem that you would like to flash.
4WAYREBOOT MOD:
I think this Mod is a MUST for anyone running Miui, it completes it!! It basically adds the additional reboot options like Recovery, Hotboot, etc. to the 'reboot' list when going to reboot the phone. Install the ZIP the same way as usual, through CWM recovery. Download the 4-Way Reboot Mod Here.
ENJOY!!!!
I will add to this post with some additional and helpful information.
Other helpful information:
- With Miui or CM7, you will want to install the ROM Manager Application. It contains a bunch of additional downloads and is a must when using Miui or CM7.
- Please do NOT USE 'ROM manager' Backup option to create a nandroid. To create a backup, boot into CWM recovery normally via ROM manager or if you have the 4-Way Reboot mod installed. Just don't use the 'Backup option' in ROM Manager
- I haven't tried Launcher Pro yet, I've actually stuck with the Stock Launcher that Miui comes with, Launcher2.apk
thanks so much! save me tinkering time
Thanks! On my to do!
EDIT - thinking about this on the way into work. Should we include a step (if the complete wipe doesn't do it) to wipe the battery stats? Could be done in CWM after flashing the ROM, or through an app like battery calibration on boot up. Also, we should note on the coming from froyo that you only need speed kernel if you do not have an option to get CWM. When I ran froyo I had a voodoo kernel so could get to CWM that way.
Also, is miui EXT4 out of the box (no need for a lagfix)? Given its next to latest GB I'm assuming it is
Just some thoughts - hoping to do this tonight, but one quick question for the group - flashing - so do you all make sure you have a full battery before you flash? I've not always done that in the past, but believe its a best practice.
NEW EDIT - almost forgot, great work as always Adam!

Thanks Jeff, the Voodoo kernel should also work as well. In regards to wiping the battery, I never did but it might be a good idea just in case. I haven't run into any issues as of yet. (knock on wood)

Not 100% sure on this at the moment, but I do know that there is no need for Lagfix with Miui or CM7.

It definitely is good practice to Flash a new ROM when the battery is almost 100% full. Now saying that, I have flashed ROMS when my battery has been as low as 40% - 45% and never had any issues.
I think that's the best comment Adam - why apply a lagfix if one is not needed!
Cannot wait to give this a run - hoping tonight assuming my little ones all go to bed, and my wife does not get too annoyed with me
[MIUI Themes and Lock Screens]
The Miui Rom is very customizable when it comes to themes and lock screens.
The Miui 'Themes' application allows you to download, install, customize and apply all different types of themes. Which I would have to say that there are at least a good 100 + or more themes out there at the moment.
I think the best feature that the 'Themes' app has to offer is that you have the option to apply different theme components to the current base theme that you have it set to!
As an example, I currently have one of the 'Honeycomb' themes applied as my base theme, my Lockscreen is based off the 'Slide Slip' theme, my Icon Set is based off the 'Seemless Dark Blue' theme and my Dialer is also based off the 'Seemless Dark Blue' theme. It feels like the possibilities are endless now when it comes to customization.
To see the different components the way the themes are broken down, choose 'Edit Theme' from within the 'Themes' app. Within here you can then assign other theme components as long as you with have the full theme installed or just that one component.
Installation of .mtz files, (Full Themes / Theme components)
Once you have downloaded a compatible Miui theme (.mtz format), copy that file to the following directory on your phone:
/sdcard/MIUI/theme
(You can also import themes from the themes application itself, all that does it move it to that directory for you)
Then open up the 'Themes' app and your new theme will be in the list.
NOTE:
If its a theme component only (Still .mtz format) , eg. Lock Screen component, it WILL NOT show up in your main Theme list. Just click on 'Edit Theme' and it should show up under the drop down for 'Lockscreen Style'. Get what i mean?
For Miui Lockscreens, check out the link below!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1288096
For full Miui themes, check out the link below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1249352
Also, the Theme app has an Online library that you can search through as well
Cheers!

EDIT flashing in process - factory reset at the moment
Awesome! Thanks for creating this. Just gotta wait until the weekend to take the plunge. It's not the flashing taking too long that I worry about, but the time I spend restoring apps and settings and just playing around in general. Not to mention having time to start over if I feel something went wrong. Two more days to go!
guessing it shouldn't boot loop - I'm stuck in a boot loop
looks like it cannot find the SD card - so keep restarting looking for the miui zip - the CWM error is quick before it restarts (can't see it)
EDIT : re-downloaded the zip but same effect. Anyone hit this before with cm7 or miui? trying a few things before I attempt a restore.
I get to 'checking bml' before it reboots, and then it boot loops continuously - I tried flashing and not flashing the glitch kernel first, but nothing sticks.
EDIT : giving up, attempting a restore of my nandroid I made before I started. Any tips let me know - disappointed.
EDIT : still up, backup didn't go so well - likely cause I have odd kernels - one last ditch - went right back to froyo stock, tried speedmod (bootloop), now put on 9.2, rebooting - may give it one more shot before giving up for the night.
EDIT - SON OF A ***** - that did it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I might have to provide some troubleshooting tips on that one!!!!!!!!
EDIT AGAIN - knock on wood here - I'm farther than the bootloop and I'm at a MIUI splash screen - that might be as far as I go tonight ... LOL
FINAL EDIT - so not much playing tonight. Ate into that with all this trouble shooting.
SO IF YOU ARE COMING FROM A GB ROM AND GET STUCK IN A BOOTLOOP - I would go to STOCK FROYO and then flash 9.2 and then follow the instructions. Bang on job Adam! I think I just had something odd on my phone.
I'm now up - gltich on + miui.
Wow, sorry you had such a hard time man. Only time I hit a hard bootloop was when trying to install CM7 using gingerbread bootloaders. Did you eventually get it going??

yeah, see my last edits - putting on 9.2 I'm guessing didn't completely adjust the bootloaders - when I put on stock telus 2.1, THEN 9.2 - I was golden.
Didn't play much (that was after 12) but restored a few apps - but man, it is really fast. Will report some thoughts over the weekend likely.
Questions on MIUI
OK a few questions.
- downloaded google maps (navigation, etc). Start it up, but it fails miserably - bombs out and goes into a constant vibration. ANyone having similar issues with that? Suggestions?
- There's a 6 digit number in the left corner of my screen - no meaning to me - anyone know what that is or seeing something similar?
- also, pinch and zoom with the camera. Those don't seem to work - any issues you folks having with that?
- Adam you suggest a different base band - where are you getting zip - I'm only finding large tars on that link (but I"m over tired)
- The OTA updater looks great BUT is in chinese - any one have a work around for that?
Again, sorry about all the issues you had with installing and such. My very first time

That is your Service Provider. With CM7 and Miui, I noticed it doesn't resolve the provider. Its no harm unless you don't like looking at numbers there. I did find a work around though, just install the Miui Extended Menu Mod and you can change it to what ever you want:

Guess I better check my links more better. Stupid site.
For now use this one. I know your in the same geo area as me, I haven't had any issues with this one, use the one attached.
Oh, don't use the OTA updater, just use ROM Manager. Or download the Miui updater app from the market.
I'm guessing MIUI originally was developed in China, lol

OK - maybe I should reflash. I actually have ROM Mgr premium - but its telling me I need CWM installed to work (which I obviously have).
And no apologies needed - we're all guinea pigs here
EDIT - Also, on the camera - used to be able to pinch like a website on Darky's to zoom in and out. Maybe that was a custom camera but I think it was generally samsung stock.
EDIT - Reflashed (1.11.18 actually - am I the first ) and GPS issue solved - might have been tied to the modem as I flashed yours Adam (THANK YOU!!!!!!) Keeping moving forward

Might be the best thing to do. I've read that some people prefer to >> Flash the ROM first >> Flash Kernel >> Boot into Kernel CWM >> Re-Flash ROM again.
Yeah, if you do there is no need for the Darky steps anymore.
Just boot into CWM, do factory wipe, partition and dalvik cache, fix permissions, then flash miui again.
Oh, in regards to ROM Manager and CWM, just select 'Flash ClockWorkMod Recovery' >> Select I9000 (MTA) and choose version 3.
Then reboot into recovery to test.
It actually still uses the Glitch CWM from the Kernel. This is just so that ROM Manager will recognize that you have a selected CWM
Looks like Miui 1.11.18 is now out. I'm going to Flash and test it out shortly.

I'm loving Miui and the glitch kernel man. There are a few other Kernels out there that we can try as well. I maybe testing the platypus kernel out soon, it is also built for our phone too
From what I've read so far though, Glitch is one of the best so far.

when you get 1.11.18, go to ROM manager and select update ROM - does nothing happen? I have it registered now with a CWM which is fine, it shows my current version (which is latest) so when I click check for udpates nothing happens (no - 'no update available' or anything like that). Just wanted to see if it was working correctly.
I am new to posting in the forum but have recently forged ahead into custom ROMs. I went from stock ICS to Pershoot's CM10 10/30 build and now on the latest 11/9 ROM. So far it works pretty good. I documented the process if anyone is interested.
It looks like there are two active JB ROMs (Pershoot's & AOKP) on the Dev thread. Just wanting to get some interaction around this SGT10.1 model.
Thanks to Pershoot. Sorry, can't post in the dev thread yet.

The only thing about Cm10 builds across the board is battery life due to the way wakelocks seem to be handled. I'm sure that eventually things will work out. For now the degree of battery drain sometimes gets exasperated on our device because of the LTE modem so I have found it best to keep certain things frozen when the tablet is not in use like logging out of Talk, freezing Maps and turning off location services along with enabling airplane mode. I am not a user of other things that require a lot of data during sleep like Facebook, twitter or other instant messaging services so generally I get adequate battery life doing these things though not as good as with HC.
One thing is certain, I have never enjoyed using the tablet as much as I do now with Pershoot's build. The responsiveness and stability is fantastic. This is the way the tablet should have shipped from the start.
Sent from my SCH-I905 using Tapatalk 2
Agreed. Battery depletion seems to be greater on the custom ROMs vs. stock. Turning off location services shuts down the constant Wi-fi activity when the screen is off and tablet idle for a long time. I purchased Better Battery Stats to help figure out where I can conserve battery.

I did have a situation where the tablet would always go into stock recovery instead of CWM after installing CWM. If you run into that same situation let me know and I can provide some direction.
CM10 nightlies can then be installed in the Android System settings "About Tablet" -> "CyanogenMod Updates" section
• Must be on stock ICS (v4.0.4) before initial flash to CM10 ROM because of the LTE modem
Might be a stupid question but, I am already running [ROM] [JB] [P4--P4WIFI--P4VZW] 4.1.2 AOKP for the Galaxy Tab 10.1 Do I still need to be on stock ICS before I flash this? I understand that I do need to update CWM via odin. Thanks!

I wouldn't think so. You probably flashed from ICS when you went to AOKP. After updating CWM I suggest factory wiping and clearing both caches before installing CM10. CM10.1 for the p4vzw is out but I would stay with CM10 for this transition.

That's what I thought. Yep I was on stock ICS before flahing AOKP. On AOKP my tablet will not deep sleep. Looks to be a modem lock. I hope CM 10 has better battery life Thanks for the reply!

I have run into this and have not figured it out? What did you do?
I'm also looking for the official ICS OTA that I can flash.
Thanks

To fix the CWM boot issue. I did have to install root first by downloading and flashing su from here. http://downloads.androidsu.com/superuser/Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip
Install "Root Browser Lite" from Google Play
Run "Root Browser Lite" and navigate to the "system/etc" folder
Select the file "install-recovery.sh" and view it. Select "RB Text Editor" to open it..
After the line "#!/system/bin/sh" add a new line and enter "exit 0". Save the file and exit.
Power off tablet, power up into recovery/download mode.
After doing these steps I noticed it still booted into stock recovery. I ODIN'd CWM once more and then it worked fine after that.
Your should have received a firmware upgrade notice when you search for updates.

I'll give it a try, thanks.
That did the trick. I was able to root ICS without error for the first time. Before I always had to install HC then root it and then update to ICS via OTA which took days before the ICS OTA would pop up sometimes. Backed up a clean copy of ICS now so I'll not deal with that again.
Thanks.
Verizon sch-i905 factory rom
Does anybody have a working link to get the factory rom for a verizon sch-i905 lte? I will contribute to anyone's beer fund!
Im new to Android world, so please help me.
Now, my Nexus 7 Wifi is now unlocked and rooted by your tutorial, and
flashed Xenon HD Custom Rom.
I was in Jelly Bean 4.2.2 before. And i found some site that says
XenonHD is updated to 4.2.2 version, so i try to get it, and installed it to
my device. But after evrything done, i checked my device's version and it
says 4.2.1, but im sure i downloaded the right one, dated April 2013, as
far as i know. So, my device was downgraded to 4.2.1
Question:
a) Is it just that easy for downgrading an Android device? Because on
iOS, there are lots of concerns first before you can actually do
downgrading..
b) After installing apps, i made a backup with Nexus Root Toolkit, and
after the backup process, it reboots, and i notice that something is
wrong, the X animation logo goes somewhere at the lower right, and
when it goes to lockscreen, since im locked on landscape orientation,
half right side shows first then the half left side, youll really say that, it is
not okay. I tried rebooting by XenonHD settings, i tried to turn off and turn
it on again, same thing happens, what should i do?
c) About XenonHD, is it just one theme available? or i can download more
themes elsewhere? can somebody point me to where can i do that?
d) should i be re-flashing for XenonHD 4.2.2? How would i do that?
e) And what more can i do to my device to achieve it AWESOMENESS
Thanks in advance..
a) Yes, on many android devices it's that easy to downgrade. You don't need to jump through all the hoops like iOS requires you to.
b) Sounds like something may have gone wrong during the install process. Perhaps you could post a picture of what it looks like.
c) not sure, never used it.
d) Guess that's up to you. If it's an upgrade then it could fix the screen issue you're having. You'd flash it the same way you flashed the 4.2.1 version.
I'm sorry for spoonfeeding.

Yes. XenonHD says it's 4.2.2 though, so I'm pretty sure you flashed an old build or the dev forgot to edit some text to make it say 4.2.2.

Flash a different ROM or reflash your current one. Backups shouldn't have any effect on the ROM; if the backup app you're using negatively impacts your experience, switch it (I use titanium backup). TWRP recovery also supports nandroid backups.

From the ROM thread, it says it supports CM10.1 themes (theme chooser). Search "CM10 themes" on Google Play to find them, then go to your settings to apply.

First, download the ROM to your device (if you haven't already), and google apps.
Make a backup of your data (nandroid or Titanium backup or some other backup app).
Then hold the power button, and select either "reboot"/"restart" or "recovery".
If you select "reboot" and no option for "recovery" comes up, hold down the volume down key while the device is restarting, then navigate using the volume buttons once the bootloader pops up, to the "recovery" tab.
Verify that the recovery installed is indeed TWRP (TeamWin recovery). If it isn't stop, and get TWRP before continuing.
Once your recovery pops up, select "factory reset", and swipe.
Then, select "install" from the menu that pops up, navigate to the folder labeled "downloads" and select the ROM file, and then select "add more zips", then select the gapps (google apps) file.
After that, swipe the little bar to start flashing, then after it's finished, select "reboot system".
Once the thing has properly booted into the setup screen, set it up, and restore your data.

Install M-Kernel and Trickster Mod (app).
Install Nova launcher.
Install fdroid (for freedoms).
Install MX Player.
Ive already re-flashed with XenonHD's latest update i think, and yeah its on 4.2.2. and still, got the lockscreen problem which i solved by changing the lockscreen orientation, locking it to portrait.. and got more error like "Apollo" and its launcher "has stopped" something.. and the voice dictation, exits when being used, wherever im in..
Now, im planning to switch to Cyanogenmod for 4.2.2, since it has few themes available.
About Kernel? Can someone help me how to do that? a great guide will be greatly appreciated, done searching and cant find it, i swear.
Thank you so much in advance
Hi Guys,
i have spent the last week looking around for information and i cant find a fix, wondering if people could help please!
Im a long time user of custom roms, have had customs on the HTC Hero, S3 and now my S4... and i had the CM12.1 nightlies installed, running TWRP and the CF AUto Root.
It ran perfectly for a few weeks or so, even with the OTA updates you get.
I woke up the other morning to the phone misbehaving so i thought i would check and now i dont have Root access at all. Super SU, TWRP and even root checker all confirm no root access.
I have wiped the phone, reinstalled root, then TWRP and then the latest CM12.1 nightly and whilst it boots into the OS, i still dont have root.
Can anyone assist please? no root seems to cause hell!
You have a big misconception about rooting a custom rom.
CF auto-root is ONLY for stock TW rom. It's should NOT be used with CM or ANY other custom rom.
Root is standard in CM, it's only disabled. It can be enabled trough devoloper options.
- To enable Developer options go in Settings->About device and press "Build number" for 7 consecutive times.
- Then go in Developer options and enable root.
After that you can install SuperSu from the playstore (but it's not required). It would recommend it though.

I'ts possible that that is caused by flashing cf auto root.
- Wipe /system (you don't need a full wipe). You can the option somewhere in TWRP.
- Reflash the rom you are on.
- Enable root in developers settings.
- Install supersu from the playstore.
Have you actually tried reinstalling SuperSU? Or force updating the libraries?
I'm having the same issue. But without root, I can't even go into recovery. What should I do to wipe the system and flash the same rom? Please help, thanks.

Root is nothing to do with the recovery. Won't stop you from booting into it if you don't have root
Cannot boot into recovery anymore (in CM 12.1)

Thanks for your help. I'm still quite new to the rooting/flashing ROM thing. The reason I ask that question was I cannot boot into recovery anymore. I tried using the following three ways, 1) holding volume up, center home and power - it still boots back to normal boot; 2) The advanced boot option in CM12.1 used to have the option of booting into recovery, but it's gone now; 3) Using the Cyanogen Update from CM12.1 to run the update within the About Phone section of settings.
Is there another way to boot into recovery? Or, do you think there is something wrong with the CM 12.1? Thanks again.
With the phone switched off, press and hold volume up/power...ignore home button its not needed
Let go when you see blue writing in top left
If that fails, then we can take it from there

I just followed your instruction. I saw the blue writing in top left, then it vibrated once and went back to boot into the regular OS. What should I do next?
Thanks.

hmm... maybe you are holding down the buttons for a little too long...try releasing when you see the samsung logo start appearing
Ok, that worked, thanks. I was back in recovery.
But then when I tried to flash the zip file of the same ROM again, I got an error message saying that the ROM is for certain models: jfltexx, i9505, GT-i9505 etc. and that my device is jfltecan.
My device is a Canadian Rogers Galaxy S4 (SGH-i337M). Initially, I used the CM 12.1 ROM for jfltexx to flash and then the model name in settings became GT-i9505. Also in setting, it's showing the CyanogenMod version as "12.1-20150426-NIGHTLY-jfltexx. So, how can I fix that?
