[Q] Jelly Bean ROMs stuck at loading screen

I tried loading a couple Jelly Bean roms for my Verizon GNex.
It's unlocked and everything and it was on 4.0.4 Build IMM76K with superuser and CWM recovery. The whole deal.
I ran recovery and tried to load these 2 ROMS, 2 seperate times starting from a fresh 4.0.4 build each time:
BAMF you jelly v1.3: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1744389
and
Team Liquid Vicious-toro V3: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1738018
Someone suggested to try a different kernel, but I'm not sure what that means.
What should I do?
are you using the touch recovery?
Did you WIPE DATA first?

Try Team Vicious's again, and be patient. I remember when I first flashed V1 I waited about 2-5 minutes before it brought me to the welcome screen. The Kernel that comes with Vicious is fine, although I've been using Faux's Kernel and am LOVING it.
You can flash kernels the same way you flash ROMs, as long as it is in a ZIP file, you are good to go. Just make sure it is compatible with Jelly Bean.
Let me know what method you are using to flash ROMs and I will try to be more detailed if needed.
Yes I am using the touch recovery. Am I not suppose to?

its been known to have issues. use the regular cwm
Did you fix permissions?
What loading screen? Google screen or boot animation?
Jeez, people need to search for real, like 3 threads on this already. Why don't you ask over in respective rom thread? Better yet, I don't believe bamf or vicious devs would release a rom without making sure it boots.

GNex stuck at Jelly Bean ROMs boot animation loading screen
I'm in a similar situation. After I flashed my Verizon GNex to Vicious Jelly Bean V3 everything seemed fine. So I decided to try my luck at flashing a theme as well. The phone is stuck on an endless JellyBean animation screen. My laptop no longer recognizes the Samsung drivers ie. they won't load, so I have no way to talk to this thing. I've tried to initiate recovery mode on the phone and it won't work either. Anybody know something I could try? I'm obviously new at this so any help would be appreciated.
Same problem over here with a friends Gnex. Same JB that installs and boots fine on my Gnex will not run on his. Weird issue

[Q] trouble with TWRP new sg3 att

I just got this new SG3 and was using Rootbox on my last one which I really liked. I noticed they use TWRP in their update options so I figured I would try with this new g3. First time trying TWRP downloaded the latest from their blog openrecovery-twrp-2.4.3.0-d2att.tar. I really like the looks & feel but am having nothing but trouble with flashing roms. Can some one tell me why I should not go back to CWM?

Its probably me but I just couldn't get it to work. I tried to flash from goomanager the right rom & gapps and I also tried from recovery. I didn't think it worked, I didn't see any confirmation of install, so I got scared and restored.
I have since done it with CWM and am ok. Thanks for the response anyway.
How did you end up flashing CWM back over TWRP? I too am having issue and would like to flash back CWM, but can't find a way how to. No flashable .tar file as far as I can find, and ROM manager doesn't list me the option to flash CWM.

Epic 4G Touch - Constantly Rebooting!

Hey guys,
I purchased this phone today, went home and immediately rooted the phone.
Everything went fine, until I tried flashing a custom recovery than the problem occurred,
I'm on a FL24 basebad with 4.0.4, and every time my phone boots 10 seconds later it restarts.
What's going on?
I rooted the phone with Odin, once rooted I installed mobile Odin and flashed a customer "Kernel / Recovery" now the phone constantly reboots.
Install the stock kernel.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Well the kernel I flashed was 0.4.0, I heard that one has reboot issues so I flashed 0.3.0 and it's working great.
The only thing I can't figure out now is how to flash CWM, keeps taking me to the download screen when booting into "recovery".

To boot to recovery
Vol up plus power and hold
Once the splash screen shows, release power and continue to hold Vol up.
You will get to recovery.

How come E4GT ROMS are so large in size, back when I had an EVO and Optimus roms were about 100MB, E4GT are about 500mb?
Well sounds like the recovery was either flashed wrong or is defective for whatever reason..
Here is how to root that version by qb77king. He is very good http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqmKN2ewatk&feature=youtube_gdata_player.....
here is a video for the recovery http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kb63ldWtnoM&feature=youtube_gdata_player
So I'd like to help but need to know more info to go by. Did you enable USB debugging when you flashed the recovery? Anyways go ahead and go to stockroms.net. there you can find a stock ROM to flash your phone with unless its virgin or boost.
I recommend just getting stock jellybean or wild for the night cyanogen.. I know you just bought it but I can tell you its worth it ICS is horrible,Too many problems. You can actually find a jellybean ROM that is already rooted when u flash it.. Anyways download the android root toolkit from the market... This will save your phone's root

Hey Trytohoaxme. So as of right now there is no cmw for ICS. There is Agat recovery which is based off of cwm that is for either a ICS ROM or jelly bean ROM. I have cmw that is a jingerbread kernal that interfaces with CyanogenMod 10.1 which has 4.2.2 jellybean. If you flash clockworkmod it won't work with a stock rom your phone won't be able to boost up..
Graydiggy u are pretty rude. I hope to god your mom raised you better. Show some respect on this forum, XDA is a place for positive feedback, not negative people who criticize others who which are naive and conceited.

Who's conceited?
I'm pretty sure he's just trying to help and avoid misinformation, no need to get offended, bud... And the op stated the issue was already resolved.
He never asked about cwm specifically, just a custom recovery. On TW ICS I've used Agat's, Ruj's, and Slesh's kernels/recoveries without issue. There's really no need for EL26/CWM tar unless you want to play it safe (which i do) going from TW to AOSP or vise versa.
And yes stock TW ROMs are huge. AOSP ROMs end up around 240 megs (give or take) including Gapps.

Well when people like you give incorrect information like you are currently doing, or makes everything more complicated than it should be, again, something you are doing, I will be rude. ICS has had source for a very very long time and has had a CWM for a long time. JB does not. I have been here for a long time and there is a reason I have recognized contributor. I may be rude, but when someone else risks someone's expensive phone, sometimes it takes being rude. If you can't handle it, oh well.
The reason for my response was because the issue was solved and the stockroms.net is not a site that I trust. We have a repository for all of our stock ROMs.

I already upgraded from ICS FL24 to JB GB27.
The problem I have as of now is, I don't know which roms are compatible with my device?
I'm on JB 4.1.2 GB27, does that mean I can only flash GB27 roms?

You can flash any ROM for the E4GT... You are in the right forums for that.
Oh okay, I was asking because the thread title of most ROMs say "[ROM] FL24 Kuban Kernal" ETC..
Since I'm on GB24, I can still use EL26 ROMs and all?

Open a help thread in your device's Q/A forum. Our device never had a rom called "Omega".

Hi ryan and hugz
Over the past week i have been trying to find a good rom for my epic. I think i have a bad phone, as any rom i use still has the same problems as stock.
I thought i hard bricked my phone a couple of days ago. Follow this thread to Odin back to stock, then root as usual, if you can not resolve your issues. Once back to stock and rooted, you should be able to restore nand, if you made one, once you reinstall cwm or twrp.

Its a issue with a lot of Roms right now, try rebooting a few times, or boot to recovery and then reboot, if that doesn't work clean install again, boot/setup phone, make data only backup, erase data only and restore the data only backup, fixed it for me on a few Roms

Which stock ROM there's a couple, I know one that was posted up here that had a few issues, wouldn't let me update anything, kept force closing, and got stuck at splash screen, had to flash diff kernel to boot it, if u want a stock ROM I have a pretty stable deodexed and rooted one I dumped and made flashable, its because the official firmware from Sammy is flawed, so hopefully next update...

Yeah its just the firnware fron sammy, its flawed at its base somewhere n they havent released any fix or anything, try rebooting to revovery and rebooting system from there, then make a data only backup an when and if u get stuck wipe data and restore the backup, fixed it for me, other than that u could try asop, seems to happen less in those roms
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
So I decided to retry v6 and ultimatic again after a while, and I've narrowed it down to getting stuck at the splash screen whenever doing a super clean and restart or engine flush. Any ideas? It'll boot back up if I backup then restore a nandroid, but there has to be some way around this.
