So I am new to this whole Android/Smartphone thing. However over the past week I have learned so much.
However, I am unable to install Cyanogenmod 10 successfully. Each time I tried to install it through CWM all I would get is installation abort.
I have rooted my phone, wipe the phone memory, partition, and dalvik cache. Also, I am trying to install the lasted version of Cyanogenmod 10, I have put the file on the internal and external SD with no success.
Any help would be great, thanks.
Does it give an error?
Try TWRP instead of cwm.
Have you installed any mods or messed with the build.prop? Google wallet?

Last night I install a "cell stand by fix" maybe that is the problem, if so how do I get rid of it?
Wow that was stupid of me, I got the "cell stand by fix" for the GSIII I9300,I9305.
Not sure. You should link to it so we can see. But, if it were me id first try twrp and if that doesn't work then odin mrrobinsons root66 fw and then try again.

Here is the link to the cell fix: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1732722.
Also how do you use twrp do you install it like you did with cwm?
Ill try to remember to pull tha apart later to take a look. It shouldn't cause you any problems though. It should've just replaced a couple files and it shouldn't be causing you any problems.
Yes you can install twrp any way you csn install cwm.
Easiest is to download goo manager from market, press menu and install openrecovery script.
That's it.

Any ideas?

Yeah you should gives this a shoot as well, but my question is, what kernel are you running then? i can see this zip, external or internal.
The kernel is 2.6.35.7
I originally rooted through ( http://epic4gtouchroot.com/).
Haven't tried autoroot since I don't have a computer available at the moment.

Ok, I seem to have noticed a possible culprit, I've got ROM Manager Premium and have flashed a custom recovery, however, whenever I try to flash into Clockwork (from the app itself and by holding up+home+power) on my phone instead of taking me to Clockwork it takes me to Android system recovery instead. Any ideas?

Odin a kernel that has CWM in it. I believe there is only one kernel supported by ROM Manager so far and I haven't even tried to go that route to confirm it yet.

this has happened to me before....you are probably going to have to boot into download mode. Hopefully you have the samsung drivers loaded onto your pc. When you get odin booted up and it recognizes your device, click the .pdf button...that is the only button on odin you need to press!!!! When you are prompted for the file load the .tar file then click start....It may take 3-5 mins to finish it will reboot. You will now have to root again. Hope this helped.

Hey there xda.
I have an i747m with rogers, and I am on stock touchwiz..
Phone is rooted, reset, wiped, update cwm, and whenever I try to install any custom rom (carbon, liquid, paranoid) I get installation aborted (bad)
Please help
THanks
Have you tried TWRP instead of CWM?
Install this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...251bGwsMSwxLDMsImNvbS5zMHVwLmdvb21hbmFnZXIiXQ..
Then go to settings in the app and select "install openrecovery script".
Then reboot and try to install a ROM again.
What version of cwm is it? And just to double check, you're using i747m rom releases, correct?
Ive never tried anything other than cwm so I will, also I just use roms that are for i747 and that are in the rogers section..
I never see any roms that say i747m they all say i747
Sent from my SGH-I747M using xda app-developers app
Make sure your recovery is the d2att version not the d2can version. It doesn't matter if you flash any i747 ROM on an i747m the only thing is you may have to set your APN manually other than that everything will work

you could redownload a ROM and try again or flash this in recovery: twrp2.4.4.0
flash it and reboot recovery (under advanced i believe). its obviously a previous version of twrp and may allow you to flash the ROM zip

Wipe everything and odin flash the root66 firmware. Start over from full stock rooted, but clean.
Run your nandroid again and write down the error. (Save log to sd).
Seems to me there is some corrupted data getting left behind. I'd format the external sd as well. But at least backup and delete the Android folder. (Contains 2 folders inside, data and obb). You can rename to Android-bak if you prefer. Do this before wiping and flashing root66.

The data error I had too, but on twrp and it's a known thing all over recovery threads for a while now. The error thing happened to me a while back but a root66 fixed that, you should also get the other bug fixed with in the same process.

Mobile Odin isn't hard to use at all. I highly recommend using it in place of cwm and twrp, except for when a nandroid is needed.
As for the cwm touch, have you considered trting twrp? Personally I prefer it over cwm.

There's no reason at all to be nervous about trying a different recovery. Thousands of people have been using it w/o issue. Personally I think they are both really good, I just prefer twrp. Give it a shot, if you don't like it, install cwm.
It shouldn't do anything at all to your current rom. Recovery is on a completely different partition. And you can install w/o flashing. Use goo manager for twrp or rom manager for cwm.

Are you using the original cwm? If so you can download Rom manager from the market .and if your using another version of cwm that was developed by one of xda developer then yes you would need to use Odin to reflash.

I have the same error message and I have no problem making nandroid backups. I always check the option bank up to external sd card. It works perfectly fine. Also flashes go just fine too. Don't worry about the error message. Not sure but I think saying no files are backed up to INTERNAL storage which is fine because you generally want them stored on your EXTERNAL sd storage anyway. If they went to internal you would loose most of your phones memory with a few backups. So don't worry. All is well. Just store your nandroid to external sd card. When its time to restore simply choose backup from EXTE R NAL sd card. So don't worry about that message. Hope this helps
the error message is gone in CWM 6.0.4.4.
