[Q] i9505 (jgedlte) fails to boot system after installing ROM

I'm trying to install CM via TWRP.
First I had to unlock the bootloader, so I did, and since then I could not boot to my stock Android (although, correct me if I'm wrong, unlocking the bootloader should NOT delete the OS), it just sent me to recovery.
So I went along, flashed TWRP and got cm 10.2.1 for jfltexx. At first it didn't install well, because my data partition was not formatted correctly. So I formatted it, now TWRP sees it correctly and is able to mount it, enable MTP and everything. When I try to install now, everything seems fine and TWRP's log shows "Updating partition details..." and gives me the "Successful" message, offering to wipe cache/reboot system. (I did wipe cache and dalvik cache before, of course).
If I choose "Reboot System", it just boots back to recovery. The same happens if I power it off and boot normally, even if I pull out the battery and retry that way.
What can I do about it?

First I'd try a newer version of CM. That's an old one. It might not work and play well with a newer version of TWRP. Plus the newer version is a little more polished.
Second, if you must use that CM version, redownload it. You wouldn't be the first person who got a corrupted install file that causes screwball issues like this.
Third, if all else fails use Odin to reset back to stock and start over. Something might have gotten all borked up when you first modified the device that isn't letting the install work. A full restore to stock should correct that.

Thanks for the reply.
Regarding the versions of CM and TWRP, I deliberately picked these versions due to their high download count (A sign I can trust these builds, being not too buggy). I'll try a newer CM version and another TWRP version if that didn't help.
I will also verify the MD5 for the downloaded file this time.
If I restore to stock via Odin, wouldn't that override the recovery? I've looked on some tutorial on how it's done, and it seems like the stock recovery is flashed, then used to restore the stock. Is there any way to use Odin to flash other ROMs?
EDIT: Nope cm-11-20140210 also failed, and I did verify the MD5 now. My TWRP is the newest available for jgedlte in the download page (2.8.0.1).
I did manage getting into some sort of a boot loop (The initial "Reboot System" brought back the recovery, but after a full power off and a reboot, the screen remains black and the phone vibrates every 4 seconds or so.)
EDIT 2: I tried to flash the stock back, following this tutorial. I downloaded the Open European version, flashed the AP but it failed during the write of system.img.ext4, saying that the image is invalid. I tried again with the PIT file, but it failed too (secure check fail while repartitioning...).

Trying to install cyanogenmod to nexus 4, I cannot flash it through TWRP recovery

I am trying to flash my N4 with cyanogenmod following the official wiki.
I'm at the point where I've installed TWRP into recovery, I've wiped everything (I've even formatted them since I couldn't wipe all of it initially), and the only error I see is "unable to mount /usb-otg".
Then, I've "installed" the CN zip files for the 13 and 12 versions, none of them works in the sense that when I reboot the system, I'm always coming back to TWRP.
What's wrong? Any suggestion?
Thanks

I've the same problems with my nexus 4

Hi gerardgerard,
I also wanted to flash my Nexus 4 with Cyanogenmod 12.1. So I installed TWRP into recovery and wiped everything, like it's explained in the wiki. I can also see the error "unable to mount /usb-otg". When I want to reboot the system I always get back to TWRP. Cyanogenmod doesn't boot correctly. Did you find a solution for the problem?

same problem
Hi
I'm having the same problem. As follows:
Cause (my mistake): I have been using Cyanogen-mod nightlies for a couple of months on my Nexus 4, and made the grave mistake of leaving the phone to upgrade one night but without it being plugged in properly - and it ran out of power part way through! (At least, that's what I think happened).
Fortunately, it would boot into bootloader and I could use adb/fastboot. I (re)installed TWRP 2.8.7.0 (from my Mac, using fastboot). And that works fine - I can boot into twrp ok.
Next I loaded the latest nightly from cm (using fastboot - is this what people call sideloading?) and used twrp to install it. It goes through the installation fine (the only error message is that it can't mount /usb-otg). But when I reboot it just goes back to twrp.
I then tried installing the earlier cm nightly that I know worked, but with the same result.
Finally, before I first installed cm I did a backup (using twrp), and I have tried recovering that. It seems to do all the right things, but again when I reboot it just goes back to twrp.
Any suggestions would be welcome.
Thanks
J

Flash back to a completely stock ROM and run through the set up to make sure everything works. Then copy CM to the phone, reboot to fastboot, flash twrp, immediately boot into recovery using the volume and power button without leaving fastboot, wipe data, cache, system, flash CM, reboot.
If the phone will not boot after flashing a stock ROM, boot to fastboot, flash the userdata.img file, and immediately go to stock recovery without leaving fastboot, wipe data/cache, reboot.

It works now!
I managed to fix the problem ... I found this guide for the Nexus 5:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/tutorial-how-to-flash-factory-image-t2513701
and I applied those instructions. It didn't work first time, so I just repeated them and now it's working. I used the 5.1.1 stock downloaded from https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#occam.
I guess this is what audit13 means in their post - so thanks are due there.
I will next reinstall twrp and cm and I don't expect any problems with that (having done it successfully before).

Nexus 6p with Android 7.0 in bootloop cannot access recovery

Hi Guys,
I'm Kinda new about making a new thread, so if anything's wrong let me know.
Just last evening my nexus 6p (on Android 7.0 official) got into a boot loop from a normal state. It just boots & right after when the white google logo transforms into 4 round object, it just reboots (it takes about 3-5 secs). I can access the boot loader but was unable to access to recovery from there as that takes it to bootloop again. I've tried flashing it, but since i had already updated to Nougat official version & the official image for 6p is yet to come, i tried with some earlier version of Marshmallow. but that failed as well. can it be that i need to select the right version of factory image as i really do not remember my old marshmallow versions anymore.
It seems i'm out of options right now. :crying:
Any advice guys??
TIA

Found this on Nexus 6p help forum. Haven't tried it though so I'm unable to confirm if it works or not.

Have you tried using fastboot to temp boot to recovery?

fastboot boot twrp-3.0.2-1-angler.img
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 0.409s]
booting...
OKAY [ 0.680s]
finished. total time: 1.097s

same behavior, nothing but a bootloop
I'm dowloading an official MM image, just to get the stock recovery and see if I can temp boot in it
edit: not possible, I even tried to flash twrp, I tried flashing stock recovery from MTC20F.. tried to temp boot in both, all with no luck and with phone constantly alternating between the "Your device cannot be checked for corruption" screen and the white Google screen with the open lock.

Guys its very simple, flash the stock mtc20f image first. After that boot it, it wont work but don't worry. Onece it bootloops go into bootloader and fastboot flash twrp 3.0.2-0. once thats done boot into twrp recovery. Onece in twrp make a backup of the image you just flashed that don't work. Once thats done mount system in recovery. Once mounted plug phone into computer and open the twrp folder you will see on your internal wich will have the backup that you just made. Transfer an old working backup into that folder that way twrp will recognize that backup. Once the backup is in the folder you shoukd see 2 backups in there, your new one that doesn't boot and your old one that does work wich you just put into the twrp folder. Once done go to restore and restore the backup of the working rom you just put in there, make sure to check off all on restore. Once done reboot system and it should boot. This will only work if you have a backup of an old working rom.

OMG I finally got mine to work
I'll note down the exact steps , most of which may or may not be relevant
1) Flashed MTC20F using TWRP 3.0.2-1
2) Booted into recovery and wiped everything and the partitions
- Add - Booted back into twrp 3.0.2-1 and then swiped to allow modifications
3) Then fastboot flashed TWRP 3.0.2-0
4) Restored my backup ( except recovery)
5) Still got stuck in the google screen.
Now the next parts are a bit weird
6) Booted into TWRP, flashed vendor.img from pure nexus rom
7) wiped everything except internal storage
8) Flashed vendor.img, pure nexus rom and gapps and then flashed vendor.img again
9) Rebooted and it worked
Let me know if it worked for you guys or if you need any more help

Unfortunately, this didn't work for me.

I believe you should be fine with just trying to flash an earlier recovery version using fastboot... if you're trying to save your data and then factory flash MM and then restore your data to the phone, you should be able to use fastboot pull and then copy them back once you've got a working device by simple copy from windows.

Can you elaborate the steps pls? also have you had an earlier back up of your phone which i don't have?

Has anyone been able to get this to work without being able to get into TWRP? I can't get into recovery whether it is a temp boot to it, or fastboot flash either version..

I have compiled a list of the 20+ methods from various users in THIS thread. It's the second post.

Stuck in a bootloop still @tr4nqui1i7y but will try your methods as well... Fingers crossed..

So I do not if this may help anyone who as run into this issue but still may want to retrieve their data before formating their data or factory resetting. While running TWRP 3.0.3 and flashing the latest 7.1.1 files for angler. I would sometimes be able to boot into the recovery like 3/10 tries ( from the bootloader menu). My data was encrypted and it woul freeze constantly when trying to decrypt soo i decided once I finally got it to boot again in the recovery menu(TWRP after hours mind you) I let the phone stay idle for a few mins should the cpu would cool down that my battery percentage would drop around 41% and the tried to decrypt data which went tru successfully. I retrieve what I Could and it froze during a process of a nandroid backup and started bootlooping again. I believe the battery percentage may be linked to the early shutdown issues that many user were reported having and the bootloop of death we are experiencing. Hopefully this info may help someone else.

Please help, possible bricked phone???

Hey guys so my phone appears to me to be bricked. I have a rooted angler on stock 7.0.0 (NBD90X, Oct 2016). I have ElementalX kernal.
A few weeks ago I was looking in to putting on MultiROM. After I flashed the custom TWRP recovery for MultiROM, the recovery wouldn't work. It just goes to the TWRP blue startup screen and freezes. I have been procrastinating on flashing a functioning recovery ever since. I know, I'm an idiot. Lesson learned. Well the November security update was pushed to my phone a few days ago. I ignored it. Last night I wanted to see if the update included 7.1 or if it was just security update, so I tapped on the update notification and it automatically downloaded the updates without prompt (which I did not want to do.)
Well an hour later my phone died. When I plugged in to the charger, it immediatly started up by itself and booted to the non-functioning recovery and froze. It does this every time I try to boot the device now. I booted in to the bootloader and tried plugging in to my PC to flash a working recovery, but the device will not get picked up by the PC anymore. I don't believe it's a driver issue I use adb all the time with this same device and pc.
Also want to add, factory reset from bootloader went to google startup animation, but then just shut off as soon as it was done. Also, when I select shutdown from bootloader with it plugged in to charger, it will turn off and stay off but does not appear to be charging in any way.
Well that's the backstory. Any help you all can provide is very much appreciated. Turns out the battery in my backup phone is only good for a couple hours anymore. You all know how helpless we are without our phones, ha! Please help! Is it bricked?

I'm confused. How did you factory reset from the bootloader? That's done from recovery. Also, when in the bootloader you use fastboot, not ADB. ADB is not used from the bootloader. Only while booted into android or from recovery.
Use fastboot to flash factory images and you should be Okay.

I meant to say fastboot. Thanks for the clarification. When in the bootloader, scrolling through the options with volume rocker is a "factory" option. I assumed it meant factory reset?

Never messed with that so I'm not sure. Since your bootloader is unlocked just download and install what you need. Start by downloading and flashing TWRP. In the 6P original development section, find the thread and search it for 3.0.2-3. It's an unofficial version that fixes the issues since (-1). After you flash that boot into it and go to 'Wipe' > Factory reset. You can also do 'Wipe' > Advanced and select system, data, cache & dalvik. Do not select internal storage. After that download a factory image zip. Extract it and flash the bootloader and radio images from fastboot. Now extract the 2nd zip inside of the 1st one and in that folder you'll find system.img, boot.img, vendor.img, cache.img, recovery.img & userdata.img.
Flash those with the exceptions of userdata.img, cache.img & recovery.img. No need to flash recovery if you plan on keeping TWRP. Cache was taken care of from TWRP in the previous step and flashing userdata will wipe your internal storage. Plus you don't want to flash that anyways if your storage is more than 32gb. Refer to Heisenberg's guide for more info.
Edit: If you can boot to bootloader your device should be read with 'fastboot devices' - if it isn't, delete any Android / Nexus / Google drivers. **Reboot your PC** and install them again. After you install them again reboot your PC one more time and try again.

How are you installing them? Using a toolkit? If so, stop and use the instructions in this thread. You shouldn't have any issues. Make sure you're rebooting your PC after deleting all Android / Nexus / Google drivers before installing them again. Install using the guide and reboot again.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/general/guides-how-to-guides-beginners-t3206928/page508
Edit/addition: Toolkits often use outdated or incomplete ADB/fastboot drivers. Always always always use the Android SDK to install them. That way you will always have the latest versions. If you ever have issues detecting your phone, just open the SDK and check for updates.

Okay so I left the phone on the charger with the frozen screen in twrp multirom edition. After that rebooted in to the bootloader. I then selected the factory option. If loaded the google animation like before, but this time actually booted up the system. The notification bar had two diagnostic tools that said tap to run...one was called sims i think? Anyways I held power button and did a hard reboot. It booted up fine. I then used twrp manager to install 3.0.2.2....then i used fastboot to flash 3.0.2.3 that i had a copy of. Things seem to be working fine now. Close call. I'm not sure what the factory option is in the bootloader, but it's not factory reset and it was the only way I could boot. I think the phone was trying to boot to recovery to install the latest updates and I had to boot to factory to get it out of "update mode," if you will...
Does anyone know what the factory option is in the bootloader?
Thanks for your help RoyJ

Factory options is meant to restart the system with some manufacturers apps available just so you can test certain functions of the phone, mostly to see if all sensors and hardware are working properly.

Bricked but still have twrp

Hey guys,
so I tried flashing Omni 8.0 rom and I was stuck at the boot screen. so I went back into twrp tried to reflash still nothing. I flashed a new version of twrp the one that can use multirom and it erased all my data. I flashed back the twrp I started with and now I can not sideload the full OTA zip to get back to stock. It says "cannot load one.zip" which is what I have it labeled as. I tried to download the recovery tool and I can't seem to figure out how to get the driver to work so it will see me on my comm port. Does anyone have any ideas on what to do or what happened? I'm stuck in twrp.

almost looks like it can't mount the system

IDK, maybe a broken download. I'd try to restore a backup if you have one, if not Wipe > Factory Reset. If it still doesn't boot after 20 minutes, refer to this thread: https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/i-have-to-go-back-to-oxygen-os.649947/#post-16907420. Basically, download the OOS ROM onto your computer and use an ADB/USB Sideload in TWRP recovery (you can flash Oxygen Recovery from TWRP if TWRP doesn't work) to install it. May take a while to boot.

I have no idea how it happened but I got my system mounted again that was my problem. I'm back.

Easy fix for "Cannot load xxx.rom": you have to patch the adb.exe with a large address awareness program. Google it, I found one in another XDA thread.
Reason: the ROM filesize is too large. For small ROMs (like custom ROMs) adb would recognise it without any problems.
