[Q] Problems installing CM9 - Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660

Hi there,
I'm new so I'm sorry if there is already a thread like this.
I'm having problems installing CM9 on my Gio. I'm following the instructions by Maclaw. Here are the steps I do:
1. install via Recovery Menu the px-cwm-v2.zip (ClockworkMod I think)
2. reboot
3. install the CM9 main zip (cm-gio-ota-eng.13052012.zip)
4. factory reset
5. reboot
6. Apply patch v2 and v3 (patch-cm9-v2.zip & patch-cm9-v3.zip)
7. reboot
I thought that was it but all i see now on the screen is "ANDROID". I tried rebooting several times but nothing works for me.
I tried the whole process now for 3 times but everytime the same failure. I have now Android 2.3.3 with root rights but I want to try out CM9.
I don't know what I'm doing wrong so pls help me if you know where the problem is.
Thanks a lot

Don't apply patch, they are very outdated and should be removed.

[HOWTO]Endless Bootloop FIX (no wipe)

Hi I got a solution to endless bootloops (at least working for me ) every time I flash new ROM I got stuck with bootloops so I experimented little bit and this solution seems to be working ...
I am using CM10 with Semaphore JB
You will need fixrecovery.tar and Odin (I used v1.83) you can download them in attachments.
For those who don't have flashable kernel on Internal SDCard can skip step 5 and second half of step 3.
1. So first of all you have to remove SIM and SDCard.
2. Flash fixrecovery.tar with Odin and uncheck Auto Reboot
3. Get into recovery and wipe only cache and flash kernel you want
4. Flash normal kernel with Odin and again uncheck Auto Reboot
5. Get into recovery and again flash kernel of your choice
6. Now you should be ready to switch your phone on
Maybe this excessive flashing of kernel is not necessary but I did it this way
Did you make this fix by yourself? There is already a fix for bootloop from stratosk!
Yes I did... can you post stratosk's fix please ?

Hello there,
Thanks for the guide. This hasn't worked for me?
I was upgrading versions of aways ROM (from ICS to Jellybean) and once I had flashed the ROM and GAPPS the phone rebooted. The link for the GAPPS was broken on the ROM website but it found me a replacement that I used. The phone does boot but FC on setup and no longer boots into recovery and is stuck in bootloop.
I thought this would fix the issue as I could still enter download mode but I still have the same problem? Phone won't boot into recovery and just loops...
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance : )
I have a device that is experiencing bootloop just stop at the logo, I think this is the kind of Mtk, rooted, Kitkat. I do not know exactly what causes it bootloop, Before bootloop I edit files and install Tweaks build.prop through the application My pimp and when I restart the device bootloop ensued, do you think this is file damage build.prop or else. So that my device bootloop

[Q] Help | cant flash any rom

Hello guys,
I tried to flash a new rom on my wildfire but every rom i tried got "bootlooped".
Thats what i did:
(followed this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12782364)
1. Verified i had hboot 1.01.0001.
2. Installed and deleted htc sync
3. Hacked hboot drivers
4. Usb debugging is on
5. Used revolutionary, when asked - installed cwm recovery.
6. Booted to bootloader. It now says "hboot 6.01.1002" (after installing revolutionary of course).
7. Got into recovery (cwm v4.0.1.4).
8. Cleaned data, cache and dalvik.
9. Install zip from sd - and then i tried mini cm9, miui v4, cyanogenmod 9 (each one after cleaning as stated in 8)
10. Reboot
11. Crap. Stuck in bootloop. Every time.
I have no idea what to do... Lucky me i backed up using cwm, so i can still restore with no problem. But cant install any new rom!
If you have any idea - i would be glad to try... I'm quite desperate.
Thanks!

Hi, could you help me with the backup files. A friend brought his phone to me for upgrade. Unfortunately I didn't do a backup, and now CWM cannot flash any of the ROMS. I need help badly.
Thanks.

Just format system & then flash rom.Everything will be fine

The Reason Why You Are Getting A Bootloop.
Flashing of Boot.img is Not Proper.
What You Need To Do.
Flash boot.img using FLASHTOOL.
In the zip file you have got, extract boot.img in the zip and place it on desktop or anywhere you can find.
Keep zip file in your phone storage.
Set USB Debugging On from Settings - Developer Options.
Connect the phone to the PC.
Click 1 - Click the Lightning icon.
Select 2 - Select the Fastboot Mode.
Click 3 - Click Ok.
Click 4 - Select Reboot Into Fastboot Via Adb and wait for the phone to go into fastboot mode. (Blue led).
Click 5 - Select Reboot Into Fastboot Via Fastboot and wait for the phone to go into fastboot mode. (Blue led).
Click 6 and 7 - Select the boot.img (from desktop if you have extracted there)
Click 8 - Reboot phone. After reboot, the phone will be in recovery mode.
In Recovery
-Whip Cache Partion,
-Cache,
-Dalvik Cache,
-Fix Permissions,

Don't know why, but it doesn't work for me.
Got a XPeria Go with formerly CM9 on it, updated to 4.1.2 and follow this guide: http://go.apeboys.org/index-de.html wich with CM9 worked perfectly. But, now with CM10 i got everytime a Bootloop and not able to fix it.
i used also your guide for flashing the boot.img but it even doesn't work
i tried it several times, and searched for reasons and another guids and tipps, but nothing worked, and since my x10 mini got a sim-lock wich i can't fix, im a little afraid about exotic tipps.
i got an open Bootloader and everything should be ready to do this....
so my question is: How can i fix that?
thanks for help and sry for my bad english.
Exact same problem here

I don't know what's the problem here. The last thing that would cause this would be the fact that I changed the .zip's name (I did that).

[Q] Flashing lpx13d flashable zip by devswift1 problem.

I have a realy serious problem with flashing lpx13d flashable pack. each time I try to flash it via twrp recpvery says that everything was flashed succesfully but then when I try to reboot the system it stops on google logo and after a reboot comes back to recovery mode. Do you have any ideas about wht am I doing wrong? Thank you in advance
First things first, the easy things.
Is it a clean install, or are you installing on top of a different version.
Did you clear the caches, if you didn't that's the first thing to try.
I have actually installed custom ROMs many times. and I have solved the problem. I havven't thought that instalation of the multirom is neccesary. When I installed it - everything works fine so as I can see - instalation fromthe stock KTU84 kernel was the issue.
To moderator- please, close the thread.
