So I installed the 12/09 Nightly of CM10 and ever since I cannot Restore or Install any ROMs. My Recovery is TWRP 2.3.1.1. It seems as though I cannot Wipe Cache, Dalvik, Factory Reset or System Wipe either. When I am using the latest installed ROM after a couple hours all of my apps force close, including Trebuchet leaving me to reset my phone.
When I reset and go into Recovery, I can restore backed up ROMs or new ones and when I reboot I am still on 12/09 CM10 with no errors until after a couple hours go by. I have tried installing CMW with no luck and re-installing TWRP with no luck. I have also tried the unrooting/unbricking method using Odin with no luck.
I am stuck on CM10 12/09 Nightly and my TWRP isn't helping in any way. I don't know if anyone else has ever run into this problem. Please help if you can.
Did you somehow loose super user? It sounds like a permission thing. When you install a new rom watch closely to what it says. You have to be getting some kind of error.
Hope this helps, good luck
Have you tried re rooting then re flashing twrp?

It still asks for super user when I go into a root application. I have tried installing supersu and it fails when trying to update the binary files. It has to be an error. Is it possible that my recovery could have become corrupt? I can't even download a new version of CM10. Every time I tried installing clockwork through rom manger is force closes all my apps and I am still on twrp. I have even tried installing with terminal emulator as well with no luck.

Yeah I tried re rooting using odin back to ICS with no luck. I tried unrooting using odin as well that would put me back to gingerbread. I have tried just about everything I can think of. My next option to try is pushing files through adb.

Hello, before people jump on me I have searched a million times and read basically the whole 200 page thread of the ROM i am trying to install without finding my answer. I am new to rooting but can follow directions very well and have watched a ton of QBKing's Videos.
Well here we go...I have had nothing but problems trying to install Jellybean jellybomb on my S3.
I flashed freegs3 no problem and thought it was cool but I want to try jellybean. So I factory reset, wiped both cache, installed LiH modem and rom and it gets stuck every time on "Android is upgrading...Starting applications" with that spinning icon but the icon starts and stop and start and stops and it never gets past that point. I've tried so many things but I can get it to work.
Ive been using twrp but I would like to try using CWM to see if that works but I do not know how to switch from twrp to CWM.... can anybody help me with getting this thing working?
Did you also wipe Data?
I have done this - - Wipe: Factory Reset / Cache / Dalvak Cache
Is there more to wipe? Also I did get CyanogenMod 10 Nightly Build to load just fine on my phone. But i really want to try the jellybomb jellybean.
Sounds like you have done everything properly, twrp works fine no real need to go to cwm. Try to dl rom again and not directly to phone to your pc then copy to root of phone

I have been dl'ing on computer and then putting it on the phone to flash. Maybe i should try the other way. I have dl'd the file 2x thinking it got messed up while downloading but no dice.
Another weird question. When loading FreeSG3 my wallpaper was the same from before... is my twrp not fully wiping everything?
**do you think i should uninstall titanium backup and reflash everything?
Hi xda,
I ran into a problem I've never faced today. Before you start assuming, I've done my research. I've searched all over the forums, tried multiple solutions (none worked) and... potentially permabricked it?
Rooted for 7 months, running Jedi Mind Tricks v5.1 Android 4.0.3
How it happened: Today I noticed my phone running really wierdly. It would crash apps constantly, which didn't happen yesterday. So I put it on *close all apps after exiting* on developer options and limited it to run 2 background apps. Throughout the day, my phone would just restart out of absolutely nowhere: in the middle of a text, after unlocking my phone. Each time progressively got shorter between the restarts. It would also freeze a lot of the time. This never happened before today. Maybe a freeze or two, but not this bad.
Did a few battery pulls, no dice. Then this is where it gets worse. The time between boot loops were from 1-2 minutes now. I was getting pissed, so I decided I needed to wipe it and install a new rom. I enter recovery mode CMW 5.0 and do an initial factory reset. Half way through, it crashes again. Now all it does is vibrate constantly until I turned it back on into recovery. Launches recovery. I try to super wipe it. Half way through, crashes again. I try this several times in conjunction with battery pulls. Doesn't work.
I pull sim card, SD card and battery out, let it rest before I reset it.
Then I tried to Odin its ass. I bricked it into the yellow warning screen about a updated system error because I fail with Odin. I searched around to find a solution. I redid Odin to stock kernel it. When it revived, it went into the loading screen. Yes! Progress! It was 99% done with loading when it froze on it. Fml. Battery pull, reboot, and it goes back into its habitual boot loop pattern. I can still access CMW, but it still crashes when I try to super wipe/wipe it.
I have to fix this because, well I bought this from someone with no warranty and using a no contract provider.
Help?
UPDATE: I was able to successfully superwipe my phone, then reinstall Mind Tricks as the rom of choice onto it. It doesn't freeze. Simply bootloops again and again. I don't know what to do.

Firstly I suggest upgrading your recovery to 6.x via odin. Then superwipe. Redownload mind trick fresh, flash mind trick, wipe data/factory reset via recovery and try to boot letting it settle for about five minutes. If this fails, flash back to stock via Odin to rule out hardware faults.

I've been looking through some how-to's but I can't seem to find how to upgrade recovery using odin. I can only find the .img file and instructions on how to do it via command lines. Any advice?
Thanks
Good suggestion but better yet ...... I had the same issue on cwm.... get twrp 2.2 look for the flashable download....... 2.3 has a few bugs so stick wit .2

Definitely get twrp on it. Flashing twrp solved 99% of my problems running cm10. Zero rr in weeks. If I were you I would go back to stock for your device. After confident its running like it should. Then root and and go nuts.
I've personally never really had to pull the battery, very rarely. I'm worried about your ram. Could it b corrupted? A short somewhere? All unrecoverable.
I wonder if you could somehow mount your device using Linux. And run memory tests or drive diagnostics.(just thinking out loud).
Twrp is definitely a must. Good luck

Try doing complete wipes and reflashing a different more stable rom and see if it happens again. There are scripts to do complete and total wipes just to make sure you get a clean install (kind of like the others suggested) atleast yours can turn on so your not hard-bricked.
That's great how you guys are saying twrp solved your issues! It's really funny when cm10 supports cwm recovery. But op, let me see if I still have mine.

Thank you guys for all the suggestion. I was able to finally install CMW 5.5 on Odin, then go to 6.0 through flashing it. Then I super wiped it several times, normal wipe data/user settings, Darkside super wipe, then install Jedi Mind Trick X, super cache wipe, mount system, then rebooted. It worked for several minutes before locked on boot loop again.
Can someone post the link to TWRP touch for flash? That would be awesome.
I've also been thinking if it could be an external hardware problem and not a software problem. How could I run the diagnostics like you had suggested?
Thanks!

my sgs2 did this last month i did the same you did. after no fix i installed a cwmtouch through odin just to be able to restore a back up and worked flawlessly. After that i switched to TWRP again flashed it with no problem through odin and my s2 has been working fine ever since, but fyi i updated twrp to its 2.3.1.1 version and now i get errors can still restore but cant flash jb roms and can only do dirty flashes of ics roms
I'm currently in the process of trying to flash twrp. Is it uncommon that when I went into recovery, it also boot looped on me several time?

what version of TWRP are you trying to use? NO it does not bootloop
I did a full wipe, script wipe, with Darkside using CMW6 and restored an old backup. It still crashes. I'm starting to think it's hardware problems. I haven't gone to TWRP because I can't find a flashable 2.2 version.

Thank you my friend. I was able to finally find a 2.2 TWRP and I flashed it via odin. Did full wipes, full cache wipes, flashed a rom. Fixed permission and all that good stuff. Left it off for 10 minutes. Came back, it started running through initialization. About 4 minutes in, it crashes again. I'm starting to think this could be hardware problem.

Do not use scripts with the new CWM 6 as it will cause this. Manually wipe everything and do not use scripts. You can use scripts with twrp but not the latest cwm

I know this issue has been covered before on various occasions but I really need some help or recommendations as to what workarounds are possible to fix this issue.
I read pretty much every post, and followed every guide to fix the status 7 error. I was able to root, install CWM and flash any custom rom's prior to this error. Yesterday tried going from a custom JB rom to ParanoidAndroid rom by doing factory/reset wiping everything delvik etc, permission fix, factory data, system wipe etc... error appears failing every time no matter how many times I wipe.
I even flashed my stock Bell rom via Odin and rooted, CWM, and tried flashing but still get the status 7 error.
Any input would be gladly appreciated..
Regards,
Try twrp or a slightly different version of cwm

I tried using the latest CWM and TWRP but still had no success.
I had to edit the zip ROM file, /META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script by deleting the first line only.
I tried this already but I must have incorrectly saved it, it worked the 2nd time around.
So, I've run into a bit of a pickle and am hoping that it's an easy fix. I'm running Jedi Rom on my ATT phone with Saberkernel. I've used Perseus and Asylum kernels prior but now stick to Saberkernel exclusively. My problem is I'm currently running CWM v.6.0.1.4 jb, and cannot wipe/factory reset. I try to do so, and the recover will restart itself. I've tried to install TWRP, but it gets stuck into a bootloop. I recently tried installing PhilZ Touch CWM. The install is successful but I cannot backup anything. What happens is it will hang for about 2 seconds then restarts the recovery. I've been trying to search for a solution for months, but cannot figure out what's up. Any help would be awesome!
How did you install TWRP just curious? Try installing twrp using goomanager from playstore. Open goomanager and hit menu then install openscript.

Why not start fresh install? Back up all your apps then flash stock rom again then flash custom rom again.

So simple, thanks alot! My "fresh" install file I've been using for months must have been the culprit. I found another one here and it looks like it's all good. Thanks again!
OK, so I went into TWRP 2.6.0.0 and tried to flash CM 10.2. It came up with an error so I restored using the backup I had made, and after the restore it told me that root permissions had been lost, and asked if I wanted to fix it. I swiped to rix root permissions, and now it doesn't seem to be able to boot up.
It gets through the boot animation fine, bu gets stuck on the final screen where it flashes SAMSUNG across the screen. I can boot back into TWRP and have tried wiping data and starting fresh, installing a different ROM, everything I can to try to get it to start fresh, but the phone always gets stuck at the same screen flashing SAMSUNG.
Any ideas of what I should do to remedy this problem??

Start fresh again but this time in TWRP goto wipe/system that will rid all old rom files which sounds like your issue, worth a shot

Hopefully I can get a fast response here, I did that, but got a warning "No OS installed" before rebooting. Is that just telling me no ROM installed or does that literally mean that there is not an OS on the phone anymore? The second option seems unlikely but I don't want to risk it and mess things up even further.

well after you wipe everything including system you need to install a rom. IF your NOT currently OTA updated to 4.3 use billard's zip:::::
[ROM/RESTORE][!MD4 OTA!](5-10)Quick Return to UNROOTED STOCK WITH FLASH COUNT RESET
Wipe everything :/system
Flash billards zip
Flash root.zip to keep root
Flash recovery zip to keep custom recovery
reboot

It also wipes the system partition for you.

Shouldnt be getting any errors installing/switching roms if your wiping correctly, If native tether is all your after then most if not all custom roms come with it enabled or you can keep stock rom and just flash the hotspot mod [MOD][Deodex][Odex][MB1][MC3][MD4][MK3]Hotspot Mod - Working 4G

I'm just as confused as anyone as to why I'm getting errors. The phone has proper root access and is running on TWRP, the same recovery I use on my One, and I have done at least 50-60 flashes of ROMs on that phone, without issue. I keep getting virtually the same error, something wrong with executing the updater binary in zip.
