Can I install a custom ROM from the internal SD? I don't have a microSD for the expansion slot.
Tried Cyanogenmod 9, but it hung on the boot screen.

Yes, you can install from internal. Prior to flashing CM9, make sure to flash a Darkside Superwipe. If you are using a recovery other than CMW 5.0.2.7 you can just wipe system / factory reset.
That worked, thanks!

Might be worth also mentioning, if you're getting hangs on boot animation you could try clearing/wiping/formatting only the cache in recovery.

I've successfully rooted and flashed cwm. I then proceed to install custom rom (have tried aokp, aosp, wicked, darthstalker, etc.), which all say installed successfully, but when it reboots they all get stuck at boot logo. Only difference is with Wicked, it reboots into recovery. The others just freeze at boot logo.
I've already installed over a dozen successfully. I follow the instructions from each ROM developer. After each fail I unbrick and reinstall stock ROM via Odin, which is always successful. No boot screen freezing or boot loops with stock ROM.
Have been going in circles for last few days, and can't get any custom ROM to work. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Do this thing
1) change ur recovery to TWRP (CWM is not bad but sometimes recovery matters)
2) when installing new ROM wipe system too ; but make sure you already have One ROM on sd card to flash.
3) if you can wipe internad sd too ; make sure you transfer data to external sd card and put ROm in external sd so that you can wipe system and sd card same time.
This might help you.

Look for wild child's super wipe script, it's a zip file, installs like any rom, it will wipe clean everything except the external sd, so put rom, kernel, etc to external sd, then use the wipe file, then install rom, i never had a problem with any rom when i do it that way

Thanks for advice! I tried that and it finally worked! I can't believe I didn't try formatting internal sd before. I was always able to install from sd on other s3's. Guess this one preferred external sd?
Like a noob, I wiped the system on TWRP. I can only go into recovery.
I tried connecting the tablet to the computer to see if I can mount it and transfer a rom over.
Previously, it was rooted to Clean Rom and bindroid kernal.
What can I do to install a rom or atleast factory reset to the stock?
Why not take the sd card out and directly transfer the rom to that then put the sd card back in your device and flash it

Flash a stock rom via odin.
As long as you can get into recovery, you are safe. Get a ROM file(Clean ROM or KikKat ROM) on your ext SD card and flash using TWRP from it.

Thank you!!! so relieved.
Hello! Today i wanted to update to the new 4.4.2 ROM from E-team (DN3 v5). So after i format data, system, internal sd, wipe cache and dalvik cache, i install the new rom. No problem, when the install is finished i wipe cache/dalvik cache and i reboot. After that i'm stuck on boot (samsung logo). Can anyone tell me what did i do wrong? Before updating i had DN3 v3.2 and i had no problems.
P.S. I am using the latest TWRP Recovery.
Hi. I suggest you to format the internal storage with TWRP Recovery. This is a full wipe procedure. After that install the ROM again and reboot. If that does not work check your bootloaders version. Reinstall the boot loader or install a never one. But first try the first step.
Good luck...

Thanks for the reply! I already formatted internal storage when i installed it. I don't understand the thing with these bootloaders. How can I check which version i'm on?

Switch to philz ,re do all the wipes for your internal sd card by clicking on "wipe to install a new rom" and wipe cache/partition and by going under advance wipe dalvik cache as well.Flash your rom then. You can switch to philz from twrp by flashing the philz.zip file from here just transfer the zip file to your external sd via card reader and just reboot into your recovery.if you dont have a card reader on you then you can flash philz .tar file in download mode via pc odin.
Philz

I just installed the latest philz and bang, it worked! Before installing latest TWRP i had an older version of philz (5.x) and maybe that was the problem. Thanks man, thanks a lot for your help!
hi guys
there is problem with my sd card slot so its too hard installing custom rom. can we flashing custom rom with odin? if its possible how?
I think that only stock ROM is posible to flash via Odin.
Custom ROM needs flashing via recovery.

Full wipe doesn ´t wipe internal memory. In TWRP recovery (others imho too)

Yes you're wrong.
put your custom rom in internal memory ,, full wipe in custom recovery will not delete every thing
Well im somewhat new to rooting etc, so while I was in twrp I accidentally hit the format button assuming it would give me options and I formatted the internal SD, I could not Re partition it, So I formatted everything and installed a new and clockwork mod(some said that would fix it), attempted to reformat it and partition it, i couldn't, it wouldn't even recognize so after trying everything I could, I just made the problem worse and worse, now clockwork mod wont even go back, like I literally cant go back, It just crashes when I try to go back, Whenever I try to flash from Odin to the phone, trying to with clockwork mod, it still seems corrupted, so its been sitting on my desk for a week, I've been trying to fix it for two, so being the stereotypical guy, the last thing I do, I ask for help, So please, Help?

Try flash this Rom which has root access built into it
Also, I recommend you use TWRP recovery (flashable zip) instead since it's UI and features are better than CWM(I think the author had discontinued the project)

Did you do a clean flash ? (Factory reset then flash the Rom)
Or try wipe the internal SD Card (backup your data first) then flash the Recovery Zip (first) then the Rom (Second), finally the Gapps (third)

Formatted and wiped both manually and using infamous cache wipe and the infamous super wipe, then using odin flashed an md5 of twrp 2.8.5 then used twrp to flash the rom you sugested and then gapss, still stuck on a reboot loop.

Did you "flash" the recovery ? If no then try to flash the recovery instead....
If all above didn't work for you, then I suggest you to odin back to the stock Rom
