[Q] No data CM9

I flashed the newest alpha build last night. I can connect to wifi with out a problem but as soon as I try to switch over to my Sprint connection all fails. The signal bars never turn blue to show connectivity.
I've tried to ODIN back to FC15, worked fine before I went to FC22. Tried updating PRL and data from settings, no dice. Not sure really what to be looking for when I access *#*#INFO#*#*.
Thanks for looking.

Mine works fine, I would re-download CM9 and try a fresh install.

Doing so now, if that fails do you think going back to a stock leak, getting a connection would be the way to go next?

You could, but in all honesty it just sounds like u either had a bad download or a bad install. Make sure you wipe everything. This is how I installed it...
1.Mobile Odin el26 stock cwm kernel
2.Wipe data/cache/dalvik cache
3.Flash Calks Format ALL
4.Flash CM9
5.Flash Gapps
6.Flash FC22 modem
7.Reboot

I installed that exact way too. I think I can rule out bad download because I used the same files on my other ET4G. No problems with it.
Only thing I did different was formatted the system before I wiped everything. Is there a problem with that?

When you use that file for Odin, it wipes your broadband which is your modem. So do what they said above and install Modem FC22

When I use what file in ODIN, the EL26 recovery? Do or do I not need to mount system before install?

Just tried another fresh install. Redownloaded CM9, GApps, and the FC22 modem. Did not mount system this time. Still no dice.

cwm recovery and jellybean

Dont know if anyone else has experienced this but i have been using jellybean port for sprint the past few days and today i decided to revert back to cm9. Im using stock cwm recovery which means not touch recovery or twrp just plain stock cwm recovery. well i wiped data and wiped cache and flashed cm9 rom i had on my sd card and it boot3d fne but i got the jellybean setup wizzard and i couldnt get past it it force close as soon as i touch anything so i went back into recovery and tried again same thing. i have a nandroid backup so i restored that and of course that works because i dont have to go thru setup wizzard. i dont know if this is just my phone or what so im placing this thread here to find out if anyone else has experienced this or if this is happening to me only. if this is an issue with cwm then im sure the devs of cwm would want to know this because if cwm is not wiping correctly then we have a problem. anyways please if anyone can try this and post back results im sure the cwm recovery devs would appreaciate it very much. thanks!

The cm9 installer may not have wiped the system partition. It's usually a good idea to do that before flashing to something new just in case.

One thing you could try is "fix permissions" in CWM.

[Q} Can't get custom roms to boot past splash screens.

I'm not new to flashing been doing it for going on 5 years. I got an T989 and wanted to put a custom rom on it. I followed instructions to install CWM using ODIN and got my CWM working, I flashed CM10 stable hercules following the instructions exactly (factory wipe, wipe cache, wipe dalvic, flash modem, flash rom, flash gapps, reboot), When it reboots I get the roms splash creen for CM 10 andit stays there forever. I also tried Slim Bean 3.0 and get the same results. I've tried going back to stock ICS and starting over from scratch and each time I get the same result I get to the splash screen and nothing else. I am using CWM 5.0.2.7.
Anyone got any thoughts on what I might be doing wrong I've been reading post after post for about 4 hours now..

When using cwm 5.0.2.7 or below, use the dark side super wipe for all the wiping BEFORE flashing (data, system, cache, etc...)

Thanks, I actually just found a thread about the "proper way to flash" and seen that 5.0.2.7 was my issue, I upped to 6.0.1.5 we'll see how that goes

So, I used dark side super wipe, then flashed as per how I listed above and still same results . There has got to be something I am missing.

I would suggest using TWRP 2.3.1.1 there are no issues with this and you might find better results... just download goomanager app and press menu and select install openrecoveryscript and go through the setup see if you can flash then and good luck with your ROM flashing

NOthing wants to work for me today. When I try to install TWRP it says there are no recoveries for my device....

Try the flash able zip here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1768742
And if you do use TWRP you will NOT need the superwipe scripts

This is very messed up, got the flashable zip, everything wen't fine, tried to wipe cash with twrp and device froze until it rebooted by itself. tried installing rom, and now I when I try to go back into twrp it hangs on the splash screen for TWRP. Now I'll have to ODIN back to stock to get back to functioning....something is definately not right here.

You forgot to wipe system. Factory wipe then system wipe...then dalvik and cache wipe. But darkside superwipe should have done that for you.

No, only use the darkside wipes with CWM 5.0.2.7. With 6.0.1.4+, just wipe manually following those steps I posted in that thread. Although you don't need to flash the radio every time. The radio stays no matter how many times you flash.
To make it easier for you..
Go back to stock. Root and install CWM 5.0.2.7.
When you get into recovery flash the darkside super wipe twice and flash the ROM. Then gapps. Reboot and you're good to go. The issue is that you tried using the dark side wipes when they're only meant to be used with TWRP and versions of CWM 5.0.2.7 and lower.
CWM 5.0.2.7 for this phone didn't function correctly so TDJ made those scripts with fixes included specifically for CWM 5.0.2.7.
Point is.. only use TDJs wipes with TWRP (any version) or CWM 5.0.2.7 or lower. With every other recovery just wipe manually as stated in that thread.

here is the issue darkside wipe works fine with 5.0.2.7, but I still get just the splash screen of the rom and no boot. When I use a newer CWM and I am preparing to clear cache the phone freezes and goes into a boot loop, same with TWRP. After using TWRP last night I got screwed and couldn't even get back to recovery. I odined a 5.8.1.3 version of CWM to see if I could back into recovery and I can, but it says E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log and E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log.I also can't do anythiing in the recovery as every time i press a button it reloads. I'm just waiting for the stock telus rom to d/l and going to odin back to stock. I'm really lost. I'm starting to think I might have bad nand.....is there an app I can check that with?

Finally, the instruction to use 5.0.2.7 and dark wipe 2 times before installing rom worked Thanks for all the help all!

I also use the darkside cache wipe after flashing the ROM/gapps which properly wipes cache/dalvik on cwm 5.0.2.7.

NO. Only use the cache wipe if you're having issues. Cache wiping after ROM installation is absolutely unnecessary. Let's not muck things up here.

You're welcome buddy I myself have reverted to using CWM 5.0.2.7 over any other recovery. Works perfectly when using the Dark side scripts.

Was having the same issues as OP. Would install fine and then wouldn't get past the animation.
Got dark side super wipe and cache wipe and worked like a charm first time! Thank goodness

Can't Wipe Data!

Hey guys I'm running MyRom 2.1 on my tmobile galaxy note 2, and whenever I wipe data in clockworkmod recovery it powers off and reboots.... everything else works, flashing ROMs, wiping cache and dalvik cache, but wiping data restarts the phone back into recovery. I ttried flashing TWRP but that recovery results in a boot loop, in which I had to flash CWM again from Odin..... I really do not know how to fix this, the ROM I'm running works great, but I really can't flash other roms without being able to wipe data......

I need Help With my wifes phone plzz

Hi there everyone and thank you for taking time to read this. I have an issue with my wifes Galaxy s2 a while back I flashed a cm10 rom and it didnt work right so I flashed jedi rom but ever since then I can't wipe data if I try to do it in recovery it gets stuck.
If I try to wipe cache it sais that can't wipe wrong path on sd, and when I try to shut the phone down it gets frozen on the goodby screen. I can't update my binary on super user. No other Rom will boot . Is there any way that I can odin this phone back to stock.. even though the back up I have is from stock rooted. But it still does the same thing.
when I boot into recovery now error saying E:can't open /cache/recovery/log
when I try to wipe dalvik it sais.. unknown volume for path [sd-ex]
any ideas?????

Are you on the latest 6.0.2.9? The 5.*.*.*. Doesn't work well with the newer roms. Update your cwm or switch to twrp, then you should fine.
