I don't know what is wrong with my phone after trying to flash SenseGinger v2.1.2 (didn't work) then reflashed CM 7 RC 3 with Mattedblues theme, Then flashed to RC 4. But each time, i can't get a clean install.
Things like Mattedblues theme icons are there when I didn't even flashed the theme Also my old wallpaper is there too when its not even on the SD card. Also now my phones constantly reboots after trying to log into google after fresh install.
I cleared Factory reset/ Cleared Cache/ Cleared Dalvik cache/ Even installed a Blank SD with only the rom.
WHat the hell is going on??? is there is secret cache somewhere i forgot to clear?
help
if you have wifi enable it will do a bootloop, so after a install do a reboot and that should stop...try to do a clean install of RC4, also if you backed up from google it will restore everything even wallpaper

No no wifi no nothing. Tried it even without a google account login and its still goes crazy. I think somehow my past rom data doesn't get deleted, but i have no idea where they are hiding at....
Right now i am doing a full HTC signed rom install and going to see how it goes.

I was having trouble installing GAPPS in Cyanogenmod 7 stable and I then tried installing an older version. Now I'm stuck with the Cyanogen skateboard screen that then goes to the Google welcome to PC36100-Touch the Android to begin. With and without touching it it goes back to the skateboard screen and continues the rotation. Any help please?
Boot loop, how fun. Wipe and flash.
How do I wipe and flash? I can't get past the above described screens?
Go into recovery, wipe data, cache, dalvik cache reflash the rom, then the gapps. Reboot. If your still getting loops, your either flashing the wrong zips, didnt wipe rigjt, or your data is corrupted. Download it again.
Oops let me add make a nandroid backup cause all your data on the phone will be deleted. Use an app like my backup or titanium back up to save your apps if you want.
Thanks I'll give it a try.
When I flash a new rom I only flash one thing at a time. Ex. Nand backup ... wipe ... flash Rom ... reboot ... wipe cache/dalvik ... flash gapps ... reboot ... wipe cache/dalvik ... flash theme ... etc. I know it takes longer but for me it is worth it because if I get a problem like a boot loop I know which thing is causing it. May not be perfect, may not be right, but works well for me
I always flashed everything at once. Wipe data/cache/dalvik/ flash Cm/gapps then reboot. But yea that's good advice also if there is a problem, I never thought of that.
I haven't had any problems flashing the 7 Stable, but I'm finding it really hard to install the GAPPS. Any ideas or suggestions?
Make sure you have the most up-to-date Gapps

When you flash CM7 and you wipe data/cache/dalvik do all of your contacts and apps come back?

the contacts and your apps will redownload from the market when you log in to your google account assuming you had the backup checked in the settings.
Ok Great- Thanks for your help.
I did all that, and I still don't have GAPPS. And can't seem to add Google sync.

Hey guys, I'm having this issue with cynogen skateboard screen over and over and I can't seam to stop it at all. I'm going into recovery mode but nothing seams to work. Can someone help please! Is there something I can install via hboot? I'm sort of a noob at this rooting stuff. Please help!
I have recently installed the new stable version of CM10 that was released today. The rom seems to be working fine but i cannot for the life of me get the gapps to install.
here are the steps I have followed to do a FULL CLEAN wipe.
Phone being used: S3 1747 att / Carrier:Bell
Rom=cm-10.0.0-d2att.zip
Gapps=gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip
CWM= d2att 6.0.1.4 touch
1- Boot into recovery
2- Wipe cache
3- Under advanced wipe dalvik cache / battery stats
4- Under mounts: format system, data, and cache
5- Flash the ROM's zip file
6- Flash the gapps zip file
7- Reboot
This has always worked for me and i have no idea why the Gapps will not instal. Does anyone have any idea why this might be? Ive tried 3 times now. Thanks in advance!
EDIT: forgot to mention, the actual install within Clockwork recovery goes fine but when I boot into the rom and check my apps, the gapps are not present. Sorry for any confusion.
Check to make sure signature verification isn't turned off. If it continues, try twrp recovery (to rule out a recovery issue).
Thanks for the quick reply!
I turned signature checking on in ClockWorkMod, Reflashed gapps, wiped cache, dalvik cache and fixed permissions. Still does not work.
I then installed TWRP Recovery (latest version for d2att) Factory reset, Wiped cache, Wiped System, Wiped Dalvik. Installed ROM then Gapps both with signature verification turned on. Still no Gapps. Any ideas?
Also tried going back into TWRP, wiped cache, wiped dalvik and fixed permissions. Still no Gapps.
Where did you dl them from? i would try dl'ing again from a different place.

I tried many different links including the ones posted above and this still doesnt work. I also got curious and flashed a few older nightly builds mainly:
cm-10-20121110-NIGHTLY-d2att
cm-10-20121111-NIGHTLY-d2att
cm-10-20121112-NIGHTLY-d2att
and gapps does not work on any of them. There has to be something im doing wrong but i cannot for the life of me figure it out. Im not sure what to try next. Any suggestions?
EDIT: wait a minute... what apps does the gapps package include by default now?
EDIT2: GOOD LORD. I feel so stupid. I was under the impression that navigation, maps the new camera app was part of the 201210 gapps. I somehow forgot that recently I installed the 4.2 leaked apps which came with all the new goodies. Jesus lol. I also remember that installing the 4.2 apps made me lose the launcher options in cm10 settings which is why I have gotten rid of them. I guess this problem is now solved lol
Haha, well normally GAPPS don't include much. Just playstore, voice search (google now) and some other apps I don't remember. Not many though.
I was on Jovy's DarthSralker and wanted to try Puremotive Galaxymod with multi window.
As usal i flash ROM with wiping cache, delvik and factory reset. Galaxy mod started well but i make a mistake by restoring data from recovery . then it started giving fc and msg was also not working. So i wanted to go back to previous ROM ( DarthStalker v8) with restoring nand backup but it never succeed. It stoped at boot logo (samsung galaxy s3 ) .
I was able to restart into recovery and download mod.
I i tried wiping cache , delvik , factory reset and even wiping system and internal sd card.
I tried to install three roms that were in my external sd card. Tried to restore nand of my 4 previous roms. But no success. They all says success and end on samsung galaxy s3 logo.
Then i decide to do odin. I was at work so i thought of charging full and doing odin later. So i leave it on charge. The battery sign show up and went. No led working.
After like a hour ; i checked and re led was there woth battery charging sign.
I restarted and it worked. Before i put on charge i did flashed DarthStalker v8 so it was there . wow
I tried for 4 hour on recovery.
Have any1 experience same problem? What causes this ?
Now i am on jovys v8 but i will be thinking 100 times to do flash again .
After working my 4.2 camera is not working and i got this on my gallery.
Now i got this
Not sure of the android versions of your rom but if it's 4.2 you need clockworkmod recovery 6.0.2.3. There are different SD card locations in 4.2 versus 4.12 and lower so it won't recognize pictures and other SD card data.
Double check your android versions and Google clockwork mod recovery. Download it flash it and re-wipe and install rom again.
You might wanna try two things out.
First the usual. Go into Gallery and clear cache and data and then fire it up again and see it that works.
Second, use a file explorer with "show hidden folders" enabled and go into DCIM and delete .thumbnails Then fire up the gallery again and see it that works.
I haven't check out PureMotive's ROM yet, so I am not sure if 4.1 or 4.2. If that is the case, then Tom may be right with the pathway issue being the problem. /data/0 type thing.
Thanks guys. Gallery is not a big issue for me. For me unable to boot phone is bigger problem via restore and new rom.

Did you happened to install Google Wallet there? I actually have issue when wiping dalvik cache after hacking the phone to install google wallet. It might have to do with the state of the phone when the cache was built in the first place. My lessons learned is that if I have google wallet in my nandroid image, don't do dalvik wipe. Don't know if you have the same issue or not.

I would suggest starting fresh. Download the Rom again. Verify the MD5 checksum. Make sure you download via WiFi, or hardline. Do a Full wipe : System, Data, Cache, Dalvik Cahce, Factory Reset. I personally would also wipe Internal Storage, but that's up to you. Flash the Rom, and reboot. First boot on MOAR takes a few minutes, have patience. After it boots try to really limit the amount of data you restore.
i ran the moar rom for a while. i flashed it with philz touch it will clean for a rom install, its an option in the menu. hope you dont have an issue with sound. it couldve been a bad download
Hi.
Using stock, rooted,s-off.stock kernel.
Recently battery life decreased, so I want to do a factory reset and start from scratch.
Went into twrp, selected wipe, and after the reboot the system start at setup screen and I get non stop FC of Google play.
I Had a nandroid backup, so I have restored it, and when system finish boot, I'm still getting this Google play FC.
Tried installing android revolution he 8.1 that I had as backup on my microsd, and after the boot finished everything is fine.
After that I tried restoring the nandroid backup, and this time I did not get this FC.
I have also tried reset via settings -backup and reset, and it will just get me into twrp recovery, tried only wiping user data, but FC saga continues.
Right now I have restored my nandroid back(by installing ARVHD 8.1 and restoring backup).
Anyone have any idea what could have happened and how to resolve that?
Any other way getting a clean system?
*I don't have access to a computer right now...
Thanks.
Tried flashing CWM recovery and doing the wipe from there, i'm still getting this google play FC
Try wiping playstore manually, 1 settings 2, scroll down to apps 3, find the playstore then clear cache & data, can then try unistall updates then try open the playstore again to see if that has helped.
