Hey all
Jdelano started this for CM9 for the OG Epic; it seemed to workout well there. So I figure since CM10 has dropped. Lets get the ball rolling and compile a pseudo FAQ / Support thread to keep the development thread as clean as we can.
I'll scan the CM10 threads and attempt to complile a conprehensive list of problems and their solutions here in a formatted (hopefully) easy to read/find way.
Please feel free to assist in answering questions or letting me know where something new has popped up.
Thanks!!!

FAQ:
Q:Where is the Sprint CM10 Development Thread?
A: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1778266
Q: What version is CM10 currently at?
A: CM10 was just a preview build until the 8/15 release, after which it moved to nightly stage. The Nightly builds can be found HERE. Changelogs for nightly builds is found HERE
****DISCLAIMER**** Nightly builds are the time when many new features are being merged and removed on a regular basis. They are automatically built each evening (most of the time) and therefore aren't tested like the previews were prior to nightly status. Therefore, things are very likely going to get broken from build to build...luckily they often times are fixed within a build or two, but it's up to your tolerance of such activity to determine how you prepare for a new flash. PLEASE ACT ACCORDINGLY. Yes, most of the time you may get away with wiping only cache & dalvic cache before flashing Nightly Rom & GApps zips - but please, make a Nandroid backup just in case. If you really want the features a new nightly offers but a "dirty" flash is causing problems, simply restore your Nandroid and do a clean install for maximum effectiveness.

A: zanderman112 posted this; which says it may have to do with ROM Manager.
"Released a fix for ROM Manager where missing directories were causing the .nomedia file to be placed in the wrong directory. This was causing missing pictures from the gallery app. Sorry about that! Fixed in 5.0.1.4."
NOTE: you will still have to remove .nomedia files from the folders with media that you want the media scanner to find.

Anyone else getting "Damaged SD Card" notification?
So far, this seems more stable than the CM9 nightlies. So far, the only bugs I've encountered involves some of the already known issues including camera problems and losing root access (reflashing root from recovery worked), and when selecting notification/ringer sounds the sound preview doesn't seem to play (yes, I checked it wasn't on vibrate).
Overall, I am very impressed for such an early build. Will be my daily driver. Excited to start seeing the CM customizations merged.
I updated the thread.
Does LTE work on this Build?
Im in a known good lte location. just no 4G notification.

I don't know if LTE works, but CM10 seems defaulted to CDMA only, so you'll need to change the mobile network mode in system settings to even try.
I cannot get my headphone jack to work with this ROM. Also the camera doesn't work for me if I try to only take a picture. It is completely capable of recording video and taking pictures while recording video.

thanks for posting; as I make my way around the forums and speak to the devs I'll see what I can find for you.
These things will be fixed some time early in the beta phase; I am sure (going by what I saw in the CM9 developement)
Of course my comments are my opinion and have no actual baring on the development time of CM10
Left out one thing, I'm not getting 3G unless I put the phone into LTE/CDMA mode

I haven't seen these issues reported over in the development thread, you may want to wipe everything and reflash and be sure to not restore any data (if you did) and see how things go.

Tried flashing several times, same issues appeared every time.
Followed standard flashing procedures. Wiped user data, cache partition, and davlik cache. The last time I flashed I also formatted system.
Update available
UPDATE: noobl posted an update @ 3:39am 7/18/2012 which can be downloaded here http://d-h.st/4Kk
here is the post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=180
updated FAQ with voicemail options
In the newest release the option for quick pin unlock is there, but doesn't work. And opening settings -> interface -> system crashes.
I'm currently running the LiquidSmooth 4.2.2 RC1 ROM for my Vzw Samsung Galaxy Nexus (Toro). I see the threads created for other devices but not the Toro.
Running great so far but would love a place for discussions on what few bugs people are able to find to help with the next build.
Found bugs:
Crash when opening LiquidSmooth Settings for lockscreen
Goo Manager is appearing as pre-installed but can't be found on the phone outside of Manage Apps and can't be uninstalled or installed over.

Both of those issues confirmed for me. Also FC when trying to set up swiftkey
Workaround for this: restore swiftkey using TB, then go into the settings and set swiftkey as your input device.
Agreed - i noticed exactly the same with RC1. As well I noticed:
- about -> status -> phone number not showing
- about -> status -> bluetooth address not showing
I also tried RC2 and after rebooting I got a polish (i think that was the language) message, that would not go away (no matter how many times i pressed 'ok'). So i reverted back to RC1.
Hello,
I detected the following systematic problems of cm9..11
1.) Skype cannot be started at all. It does not even react on a click of its icon. And no error message appears.
2.) the akku load status is shown incorrect during load process. E.g. after 4 hours load it shows 37% instead of true 100% (which is shown after reboot).
3.) The wonderful app 'lgCamera' runs very slow and jerky. This was fine in Android 2.x versions.
4.) the FM radio app for the WFS radio tuner (no internet radio!). How can I find it (and flash it into the system folder as a system app)?
I suppose that everybody can confirm my problems!?...
Are those already known by the development team? Cause I wonder that they are not fixed in ALL CyanogenMod versions yet!
Will there be a chance to expect their fix soon?...
5.) Furtheron I have big compatibility problems when flashing cm9..cm11 ROMs and others. Error message: "cannot load volume /misc. Can't partition non-vfat: /storage (vfat)". For nearly each ROM I have to change the recovery. Currently I change between the following recoverys (one of them allways works):
twrp-2.2.2.0, twrp-2.7.1.0, Phil-Z 6.43.7, cwm-5.0.2.8, cwm-6.0.5.3. Nobody else having that problem?...
Is there any recovery version that can read all 'formats' of zip files?...
Will there be compatibiliy at least at the backup files between all of them?...
Thank you VERY much for a quick help!
1.) not compatible anymore, say Thanks to Skype
2.) This is probably problem with battery not reading voltage correct anymore on charger (happens) for me on all roms even stock. (After 100000 of flashes and almost 3years old down sucked battery
3) ics and up isn't made for this phone, slow downs and other incompatibility can happen.
4) There is a solution called spiritfm(free) Google it, you will find the xda thread.
5) twrp 2.2.2.0 and cwm 5 is working on all ROMs beside newer kk builds (needs recovery compiled with TLS support, newest ones available)
Greetings Kevin
Hallo Kevin,
I am so glad that you answer! Thank you very much!!
to 1.) Yes, I realised meanwhile that Skype 4 ist still running fine. So the reason why the new Skype 5 version does not work on Wildfire S (or even on all CM versions of all devices??) you don't know!?...
to 2.) So this is a general Andrid 4.x problem of Wildfire S device only?... (cause e.g. on Galaxy S4 stock (of my girl-friend) it works fine!...
to 4.) Thank you. I installed this free version '0918fr.apk' but I get the error message (su rights confirmed): "Error: No FM accessible. SU: 0 Fm:BC2 SU:0 Bt:3 Ht:0 Mo:BCU". It does not seem to be compatible although I have read everywhere that it should work. Is this maybe antoo old version? Or what can be the reason?...
to 5.) So I used newer version 'cwm-6.0.5.3' and 'twrp-2.7.1.0', as I mentioned, but then these versions do not support older version than KK. E.g. 'CronMod-INT2EXT+_signed.zip'. This is the problem. Any solution?...
Is TLS ment as 'Thread-local storage'?...
Another short request:
a) Video recording with cm11 on Wildfire S works now without any patch. But if I record a video longer than about 5 seconds and I want to watch it directly after having stopped recording (timeframe about 7 seconds) then the camera app crashes. Can you confirm that on Wildfire S? What can be the reason?...
If Olivier's camera patch will help here as well I have not tested yet...
b) Management of Launcher and App screen is somehow circumstancial or not even possible. This is why the option 'Homescreen' is missing in 'Personalization' ('cm-11-20140816-Nightly') although the related screenshots of cm11 in XDA show this option!! E.g. App icons cannot be sorted alphabetically or cannot be manually moved within the screen. Or the home panel is the most left one instead of the middle one. Etc.
Any reason why the option 'Homescreen' was deleted (in XDA cm11 screenshots for Wildfire S still show it!! S. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2735775 )?...
c) CM11 OTA update suggests me 'cm-11.0.0-RC9' as the first in the list. Is this really more actual than the installed 'cm-11-20140816-Nightly' (version 11.0-20140816) ?...
d) In this version the Email system app is missing. Why?
Any zip to flash it anywhere? Or do I have to use one of the market?...
e) No warm reboot option available anymore in cm versions?...
Thanks for your help again, Kevin!
Many greetings, Falk
to 5.) I could solve that problem meanwhile by myself. I downloaded a modified version of cwm 6.0.5.3 here:
http://click.xda-developers.com/api...5.0] - Post #52 - XDA Forum&txt=the new build
But I still do not know what was modified! You?...
6.) you forgot the ever present mobile data bug at least for cm9 and cm10. Which no1 evens bothers to mention

oh, its super present .
It was a "common" problem in cm9, cm10 based roms, at least judging from the various threads dating back to 2013. And as I discovered yesterday its also present in CM11 RC9 for me.
Occurence of the bug is very random and seems to be bound to certain providers which makes it hard to debug/fix i guess.
Sadly, from what I've read "deal with it and toggle airplane mode when you need mobile data" or "install cm7" are the ways to handle this bug.

thanks a lot for this final version!
But one thing I realised already... I additionally installed GAPPS 'gapps-jb-4.2.2-light-20130824-signed' and one function does not run:
'GoogleTTS'. It crashes.
Can you have a look please?...

Well, no problem. Just give me a logcat of the error.
I re-uploaded the rom cause GPS was not working. Now it does.
Where can I find this 'logcat'?...
Maybe TTS is not a problem with CM10.1 but with the GAPPs package that contains an incompatible GoogleTTS.apk!?
Do you activate the update function in Android options at 'phone infos'? (no option for that right now)
Would really make sense for left errors like that, don't you think so?
Meanwhile I could just flash over the old one, right?...
By the way... Will there be a final CM10.2 version as well?...
Will it be possible to update from 10.1 to 10.2 by just flashing over CM10.1 ? (it is all 'Jelly Beans'...)

Probably. I don't really remember TTS working on Android 4.x for armv6. Maybe it uses some armv7 libs. I suggest you download these and flash it on a clean ROM. It doesn't contain anything unnecessary.
To make a logcat just download an app named "Catlog", start it, give it root access, then make google tts crash and then save the log in txt file and post it on pastebin.

Updater has nothing to do with this. And it was not working anyway cause this port is unofficial.

There won't be stable CM10.2 for sure. I could make a stable CM11, but man, even CM10.1 is pretty heavy for WFS. I shared all fixes I have with ARMv6Team, so A2DP and wired headset are fixed in CM11 now. But I won't join the development since I don't see the point.
okay, thank you. I will send you the Logcat later this night.
To TTS:
1) Is it used/necessary e.g. by GoogleMaps for the voice to navigate you? If so this would mean that lite-weight GAPPS packages do not support GoogleMaps navigation?...
2) It could be that the GAPPS package I mentioned before (s. this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1917411) misses a folder 'tts'. I added it and will flash it later. Maybe that's the reason for the TTS crash. I will let you know.
3) Why didn't you include at Android settings the two options 'developer options' and 'performance'? (in CM9 they are included!) They would be very helpful!!
4) Can I just flash over your CM10.1 version from 17th Oct. the actual version from 18th Oct.? I work with INT2EXT2 !!
[Maybe I could avoid reinstallations each time by using LINK2SD instead?...] Or which part of the new version do I have to flash over?...
4b) May I just overwrite a CM10.1 version with version CM10.2 ?... (both are Jelly Bean!)
To 2): I just saw that the folder 'tts' is already included in your CM10.1 package. So I suppose that it should not be added in GAPPs again.
What I suppose now: While 'PicoTts.apk' is an offline TTS module the 'GoogleTTS' is an online one workimg together with the Google server. (It might be necessary for other online components like GoogleMaps navigation.) Right?

Well yes, TTS is probably being used for voice output. I'm not sure it's being used in google maps though.

You don't need to reflash. Just extract /system/lib/hw/gps.msm7x27.so and /system/etc/gps.conf from the zip and put them into the same places on your phone.

I think you can't since 10.2 is much different. Never tried it by myself though. Just make a backup, then do whatever you want.

I never actually used TTS since it does not support Russian, which is my native language. All I can do is take a look into logcat and see if I can fix it.
Regards.
I just sent you the logcat of the TTS problem by pastebin to niks255.
(I did not use a clean system but I think it will go anyway, will it?...)
Furtheron I would like to ask you the important question 4 again:
How can I update a (same) CM version (e.g. CM10.1) (if I do not have informations about the exact components changed!) WHEN using a link script like INT2EXT2?... (I already made some tries but failed)
Another little question...
I am missing in the boot menu (long press on power button) the (earlier) options like reboot to recovery, reboot to bootloader, etc.
Is there any reason why this disappeared at CM10+ ?...

This option is still there. Go to settings - developer settings and set "Advanced reboot menu" option checked. To unlock developer settings, follow steps from the post above.
And please, provide a link to your logcat on pastebin here.
This is the link to the log: http://pastebin.com/FHGPrQfc .
I hope that you can find out the TTS crash reason!... Please let me know.

Seems pretty simple to me. Remove google now and install this from google play https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.voicesearch&hl=en then give me your feedback.
hmmh, I don't think that this is the reason...
Cause the TTS error message came already directly after login of the pretty new flashed CM10.1 package.
At LogCat I used 'Voice Search' of GoogleNow ('GoogleNowVoiceSearch.apk') just for starting TTS to demonstrate the error.
So you think that gapps-jb-4.2.2-light-20130824-signed does not suit to your CM10.1 package?...
Refering updates of same CM versions with SD-ext link scripts you are right: it worked just to copy the script to folder init.d. A good solution. Thank you!!
And also the two additional boot options can be activated.
What about the warm restart option. Doesn't this exist anymore?...
May I ask you some additional questions?...
* How would you compare CM9 with CM10.1 considering power consumption?
* Is there anything left that will not work of Bluetooth at CM10.1 ? Cause in the forums there is often mentioned s.th...
* And is it possible that design/themes/background collections are available like it is at CM9? I just see that files like MagicSmokeWallpapers.apk, VisualizationWallpapers.apk and LiveWallpapers.apk are not included anymore in your CM10.1 package. That's why the options 'background pictures' and 'Live background' don't find anything.
And there is still another point (no forum thread about that)...
It seems as if there is no local contacts 'account' at CMx (normally called 'phone') but only the own Google account. Isn't this unusual?...
Not wanting to use the Google account would mean to create an extra one?...
Thanks for your feedback!
If I remove 'GoogleNow.apk' and even 'GoogleNowVoiceSearch.apk' I still cannot install app VoiceSearch (it is still installed).
It is another app in the system folder that you want me to exchange: VoiceSearch.apk. It does not seemt to have s.th. to do with 'GoogleNowVoiceSearch.apk' which I used to execute TTS.
Do you want me to remove this as well?...
I can also use 'Android settings -> Speech and Input -> text-to-speech output' to start TTS. It crashes here as well!... So the problem should not be the VoiceSearch module.
Does the option 'Speech search' just above works on your mobile? Here it does not work as well!...

Reflash the ROM and flash those Gapps I gave you then install voice search from google play.
I don't understand...
That makes no sense cause those Gapps are unnecessary small. I have more ROM.
Furtheron they do not contain the necessary GoogleTTS.apk which is the one that crashes.
So with a small Gaps package your version will always work as it does not have the available, additional features!...
So could you meanwhile test your CM10.1 with my Gapps version? That would be a good idea as well, I suppose, wouldn't it?
And would you be so kind and just comment my last requests? ( I assure you I won't ask anymore afterwards ) )!
Thank you so much !!

That makes perfect sense cause TTS seems to be using CM10.1 voice input according to your logcat. Just try it.
And live wallpapers are included in CM10.1. They were not in CM10, but it's also fixable.
Talking about battery life. I got the best results on CM10. On CM9 I was having some strange battery drain sometimes. I could even find my phone turned off when I wake up. That problem does not exist on CM10 and higher.
So you mean that 'my' Gapps (for v4.2.2!) are unnecessary big? And your ZGapps already include all possible and necessary functions?... E.g GoogleTTS.apk must not be included as TTS is 'double-functioned' then?...
So how do I have to configure it now (which apks do I need and which are unnecessary (e.g. 'GoogleNowVoiceSearch.apk', 'GoogleNow.apk', GoogleTTS.apk, etc.). Just check it in my GAPPs please!) that...
1.) GoogleNow Voice search does not crash?
2.) 'Android settings -> Speech and Input -> text-to-speech output' does not crash?
And yes, I saw that LiveWallpapers are included as an apk. BUT when I go to Background->Live-Backgrounds the entrance is EMPTY!!
(and option 'background pictures' contains just one picture)
Why is that so?...
The only working option I have right now is 'CM background pictures'!...
Thank you for your feedback concerning power consumption.
So Bluetooth works fine now on CM10 and CM11 ??
By the way...
Do you think the CM11 version for Marvel is already stable enough to be ready for normal/daily use?
And are there (functional) reasons why KitKat should be prefered to Jelly Beans?...

Live Backgrounds is empty because you don't have any live wallpaper installed. Download one from google play and you'll be fine.
The ROM contains just one background to reduce ROM size. It hardly fits internal memory, so I guess devs just had to slim it as much as possible. You can set any picture as a background.

* How should Google TTS work if GoogleTTS.apk is not installed on your side? As I already mentioned: your Gapps package does not contain it!... So both options ('Speech Search' and 'Online TTS') do not even appear in your settings menu!!!
* You write that you don't know about CM 10.1?... I thought you have finished both 10.0 and 10.1 and that you are a developer!?.... Didn't you fix the last problems at CM10.x? The way you announced it.
If not could you please inform me what you exactly did/improve at both (CM10.0 and CM10.1 ) compared to the most actual version I know: 'cm-10.1-20131025-OWLPROJECT-marvel.zip'?
* 'My' Gapps link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1917411 include very nice additional features! Did you check meanwhile?... Those should work properly with proper stable running CM10.x versions, of course - GoogleTTS included, shouldn't they?...
So don't you care for those functions as well (not just suggest a smaller Gapps package).
Didn't you say: "What's not working:... You tell me." So I did...
* Can you please tell me otherwise where to find another most actual and proper working CM10.1 version (of this year)?
* By the way, which CM10.x version did you take as the basic version of yours?
Three more little questions:
- All CM10 apk files in your packages are dated from February 2008. Isn't that strange that one cannot see the real date/actuality of each component?...
- Do you know why there are different packages for each three JB versions?... (maybe my GoogleTTS.apk was mixed up!)
- How can I test other Gapps easily? I should clean and overwrite the Gapps. My only idea would be to format only system folder and flash Rom and Gapps again. Any better idea?...
-------------
However this discussion is difficult because I don't have informations about the function of each Gapps app. How can I find out? Don't you know maybe any explaining listing/document?

Hmmh. Again I don't understand... At last you wrote: "And live wallpapers are included in CM10.1. They were not in CM10, but it's also fixable." So I should have Live Wallpapers. But now you say I havn't...
In fact LiveWallpapers.apk is not included in your CM10.1, Nick! Now I took the one of CM9: I could install it but they cannot be loaded. It shows 2 pictures. The same app shows in CM9 9 pictures...
Anyhow, they are wrong for CM10. Do you know where I can get LiveWallpapers.apk for CM10.x compatible with Trebuchet ??

I have a CM11 version here that seems to run fine (up to now). But I am not sure about its power consumption and speed.
Hallo again Nick,
meanwhile I tested your Gapps. My complaints are right.
As I mentioned above: GoogleTTS cannot crash with your Gapps because it is not installed.
At 'Settings->Speech&Input->Text-to-Speech output' you cannot choose between Google TTS and Pico TTS but you have only the last one!
But if you - as I wrote - choose the online-TTS version (sounds much better!!) with GoogleTTS.apk it crashes.
So it really does not seem to work together with your CM10.1 and you should improve this please.
The same with 'Settings->Speech&Input->Speech search': it does not work. If I choose this option everything hangs on.
This is the second point/problem that obviously should be fixed.
Please just install GoogleTTS.apk and VoiceSearch.apk in your systems folder of your CM10.1 version.
Now please test the mentioned two functions!
By the way: I just did so at another CM10.1 release (which I do not like so much than yours) and it worked fine! So it should generally work with yours as well but doesn't !...
Would be perfect if you could find solutions for both problems.
Thank you very much!
PS: I tested all this also at CM9. Here GoogleTTS is also included (in a lite Gaps package!). And here both functions work perfect: Speech Search AND Text-to-Speech Output !!
It seems to be sure: There is s.th. wrong at your CM10.1 version!

Absolutely should work, however, you have some homework to do in order to ensure success. You will need a new recovery, new radio and might need to jump to ICS first, not sure. One other thing I would recommend is turning on your GPS and getting a GPS lock before rebooting to flash a new radio, recovery and ROM if coming from GingerBread as you are...
Head on over to Vincom's 1-Stop Sticky Thread, which contains information all about the SGH-i727 Skyrocket, and the T-Mobile Dev Thread. The Hercules is almost identical and hardware, and most Skyrocket ROMs should work on both, with maybe one issue of screen orientation (turned 90 degrees).
There are radio links in the OP of my SlimKat Hercules thread.
Read up in those threads, and then find a newer recovery and radio that you need need to proceed.
Thank to Slimrom
I'm very happy to keep my old pal (T989) on working everyday with Slimrom.
I change from CM11 to Slimkat build 7 serveral months agos.
I flashed by zip with CWM, it was working but couldn't reboot by default, dark screen and no response anything. I think it was my fault.
Then I restored and flashed it again with Rom Manager, it's successful.
With mini gapps pack, Rom (build 7) works like a charm. Then I disabled some google services for better RAM and speed (for example Hangout is kinda heavy)
Herein is some point that I think could make it better:
There is no option to change launcher ( Nova launcher by default)
There is no option to change/customize clock widget on LockScreen (DashClock Widget by default)
Recent Apps function: didn't show the latest using app on the list (when my current screen is homescreen).
Recent Apps function: Couldn't access to previous app (Close App error)
Step to reproduce: If you're using App A, then App B, you try to access App A via Recent Apps function. Then error message "Close App" will be display. But luckily I've found my own way to resolve, just change to random App C, then back to App A as usual (a little bit unconvenience but it was not a problem)
Notification couldn't updated by user behavior. For example, I have notification for new message on Viber, then i access Viber to check a new message ( do not touch on Notification ), so this notification will be remained for a long time ( until I touch on it for re-read)
I couln't tested with build 8 due to camera error ( couldn't handle camcorder function, couldn't focus) but I'm really happy with the build 7.
Thank you.
Can't hear or make calls after flashing
Installed the stable Slimkat for t989 I can't hear any dialing sound or anything when somebody calls me :/ back to stock

Stable version 8? No such issues have been reported. Bugreport?
One Skyrocket user has reported the inability to receive casks in WEEKLY version 8.12.1. He went back to weekly version 8.10 and incoming calls are working. These phones share a lot of source code.
It must be caused by something merged since the 8.12.1 WEEKLY.

Yes. 8.0 stable release from the site slim-hercules-4-4-4-build-8-0-official-6919
as for the bug report I panicked since I needed the phone in working state withing an hour so I flashed the stock firmware back so not much help from me now . But yeah I called a phone in the household and phone was making a call its just I couldn't hear the dialing tone and when the second person picked up it was dead silence on my side.
This is not he first time I had this issue previously I tried cyanogenmod 10.2.0 stable and had the same issue out of nowhere after month of working just fine
Thanks for the feedback. Full wipe, including /data wipe or factory reset?

I'm using the build by Dan that fixed calling, and I'm getting a huge memory leak problem. The Base System process would start using 100 MB to 200 MB of my RAM, while hogging a part of my CPU at all times. I was watching a video earlier and noticed my CPU usage jumped to 100% and the available RAM started going around 200 MB before the system killed my on-screen system stats display (Cool Tool). I didn't have any other apps running and nothing was being updated at that moment. The video started getting choppy and my phone froze soon after. If you need a log from me, I'll be happy to provide one.

Have you tried the 8.16 weekly from the Slim site, or the test build I posted? Either way, there shouldn't have been any changes (that I made, at least) which would cause such a memory leak...
Clean flash? What GApps version? What app were you using to watch video? YouTube has had some intermittent issues, and I have also heard of recent Google Play Services issues...
If you can start a new thread in the Slim Hercules forum and post a good description with a Slim bugreport, it may be helpful. See Post 2 of the main thread for more details on helping to squash any bugs.
After I installed the rom, the slim gapps, and supersu, my phone did not boot up and did not even show a bootanimation. I tried going into recovery to restore a backup but it would not enter recovery mode. There would just be gentle vibrations and then a black screen. I was using TWRP v2.8.4.0. I would prefer to avoid the hassle of flashing through odin. Please help, thank you.

Can you get to download mode? With phone off, hold both Vol Up & Vol Dn while plugging a computer USB cable in.
Sounds like a bad flash, bad download, recovery issue, or possible h/w problem. The fact that you can't get to recovery suggests a recovery or h/w issue to me.
Does the below work for Recovery mode?
Press and hold Vol Up, Vol Dn and Power for 2 seconds, then release Power but continue holding Vol Up & Vol Dn until recovery loads.
