Problem when installing Omega rom - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Dear XDA members,
Sorry to post here but I don't have enough authorization for the development category.
I used the Omega rom v4.1. I downloaded the v6.1 and I'd like to post my remarks:
Very good rom, thanks to the developers but one negative point... I had a freeze after the installation. :crying:
Actually after the message "Done..." I pressed on the Next button but nothing continued. I had to press on the Power button during several seconds to reboot the phone.
Now everything is OK but I was scared during a few seconds.
Thanks again for your great work.

Bootloop desire CM 6.1 RC

Hye guys,
When i wiped my rom, backuped my current and installed the new CM 6.1 RC, i am stuck at boot-loop.
The cm mod logo just reappears, and nothing further happens.
When i press power and volume down, and choose recovery, i just get this exclamation mark with a triangle around the mark over a desire.
Anyone got a suggestion to what i can do? the led seems to work fine.
Any help would be appriciated.
cheers
I have the same. Tried loading 6.0.2 first which works well but not getting past boot on 6.1

Well that is the standard htc recovery. That is the recovery installed to your phone if you didn't install another one. So if you rooted usings pauls method, you have probably been using fake flash to access recovery. So do the following to enter your fake flash recovery:
1. when on the triangle screen hold "volume up" and press "power button"
2. use volume and power button to select "flash update.zip"
3. now clockwork mod(your normal recovery) should appear, and you can just restore your backup.
Now lets hope you didn't install it in the order you mentioned:

This way your backup will contain a couple of empty partitions.. because you would have wiped it first. I hope you were not that stupid
And a note: please don't mess with things you clearly don't have a clue about. You clearly do not know, what you are doing to your phone and are just pushing buttons according to some guide.

So you wan't HTC to take care of a problem you created by hacking your phone? Take some responsibility and if you dont know how to install roms and how they work. Just don't.(note to OP above also applies to you)
And finally sorry for being a little rough on you guys but seriously such problems could be easily solved by the individual just by reading up on the subject of rooting as the above info should be common knowledge.

[Q] URGENT CWM button not working

Hi
Just got into recovery mode.... trying to flash ARHD ROM. Currently have LeeDroid.
Anyway, got into recovery, did a wipe data/factory reset, like I did when I flashed LeeDroid. Once it said, "Data wipe complete.", I must have pressed something and now it says, "Back menu button disabled.".
I can go up and down on the Recovery menu, but when I try to select something using the Power button, all I get is a white box with the little green Android jumping out of it !
can't power off, restart, cant select anything... and I dont think the phone is chargin when in Recovery mode ! Alas !
What to do !!
I should have all my zip ROM files still on SD card !

I faced this kind of problem few days back. Just take of your battery and again enter into ur bootloader and next recovery. Don't know more than this. Hope your issue will be solved

Try holding down the volume down button. I had this last week & holding the vol down button re-enabled it.

Pull your battery then hold the phone side ways & put it back in as soon as its back in, without even putting the side back on, hold the volume down button and power button and you should go into the bootloader. Now put the case back on without losing contact with the battery (bit fiddly) then look.at the screen & you'll see an option for recovery. Chose that using volume keys n power button. Then proceed as normal. Their may be another way but its happened to me after a wipe before n that's what I done

This is not working for me ......
A bit reluctant on taking the battery out just yet ...
Hopefully there is a way to get the Back menu button enabled without doing that !

Just press the volume button down several times, browsing through the menu.. down down down, and it should re-apear..
That worked for me, and other´s
Edit: Don´t hold the vol button down, press it several times
What does YOUR button have to do with development???
That´s true, should be moved to general...

I am a newb here, but what I have gathered so far is that all rooting queries/threads are in Android Development thread.

Nope, the development thread is only for rom´s, radio´s & kernel´s..
Questions like this can you post (and should post) in the general thread, just so you now for the future
Edit: All thread´s here is about rooting & flashing... almost any way

[Q] Stuck in ParanoidKANGdroid boot up screen *Please help!*

Hey guys, I"m new to the forums (as well as android).. Got my S3 yesterday (ditched my iPhone 5 for it and found touch wiz to be gruesome) So I rooted my i747 device, and installed the latest CWM, and put the new paranoidkangdroid ROM on my S3. I had it working all day, and it's incredible! I love every aspect of it. However, my phone just recently after trying to set a passcode rebooted itself and is stuck in the boot screen.. (the glowing pink android)..
I've tried rebooting, removing the battery, connecting to my computer, and tried to boot into the CWM screen without any success. Any suggestions for how I can get this thing to work again?
Thanks a lot for your time
- Ryan
Volume up+home button+power button until it disappears, let go of power and keep hokding other two. Yoh will see samsung screen with blue letters in top left for a brief second.

Thanks for the quick reply, tried your advice.. screen went black, vibrated every few seconds, showed the samsung logo quickly, restarted itself again, and is still stuck in the boot loop...
Any other ideas?'
[update] : got my phone into the CWM recovery (v6.0.1.4) Any ideas on my next step? I cleared my cache and rebooted, it restarted and a screen popped up saying "updating android" and it was updating all my apps, gave me a little bit of hope. But then it proceeded to go back into the boot loop. This is getting really frustrating, if anyone has any other suggestions I'd really appreciate it

sorry for the double post - screen is all black no... getting no response at all now from the device, asides from an occasional vibration when I hold down the volume up + home + power...
please help
I just noticed the post for that ROM today so it is obviously fairly new, bugs are to be expected. Can you get to download mode, same process as recovery except substitute vol down for vol up. If so you can flash the stock rooted ROM of your choice and either try again or use a different ROM until they work the bug out. I would also suggest posting in the ROM OP so the dev is aware of the problem, or incase he has any suggestions.
EDIT - Just noticed you only have 3 posts, the forums require 10 to post in the development sub forums.

That happened to me. For that rom to work, don't change any settings.
Make sure it's disconnected from the power wire. Hold, Volume Up and Home button then hold the power button. Wipe both caches, and factory reset. Reflash PK and Gapps. Wipe caches again and reboot. It should work. If not flash back to PA like I did. I'm gonna wait for the next update.

Wipe "cache" AND "dalvik cache" found under advanced tab. If that fails, try a more stable rom. Cm10 nightlies maybe, which are more mature with less problems.
Also, you didn't flash a different kernel did you? From what I read only the kernel provided will work. Furthermore, make sure you flash the proper gaaps. That also will cause problems.
And of course. Welcome to XDA and Android. Once you get the hang of flashing you will be obsessed and never go back to iFail. Trust me.

thanks a lot everyone above - I managed to reset all caches earlier, wiped the device, and then re-installed the ROM and gapps and everything is working fine now. I'll take your advice and not alter too many of the settings on this ROM (asides from this error, this OS runs beautifully!) I tried to post this problem in the post for this specific ROM but wasn't allowed as I have less than ten posts.. haha.
Again, thanks for all the help. I'm loving the device, iOS doesn't come close to what I've experienced so far.. And I've only been using it for a couple days.

Why do you need to open another useless thread when you can ask your questions on the already created ROM thread?
And you are already looking for another Rom...

Try resetting the phone? Hold power for several seconds and it reboots
Held down power button for for almost a minute. No reboot for me
If I press power button and volume down it will take me to boot menu and from there have to reboot the phone. That's the only thing that works .
But I am curious to know what's causing this .

No idea but that first notification in your screenshot looks like some app/game you installed or just straight up malware. I'm guessing this problem wasn't there right after your clean flashed RR and before you started installing apps?
Apps were installed from my backup. So no idea.
And that first notification is just a text essage and nothing more . Maybe will just start uninstalling apps that were not part of my backup and check .
Thanks for replying though :good:
No luck , still stuck with the same problem. Someone please try and suggest something.
