Ok. Download ROM manager and use it to install regular cwm recovery.

I would use the non touch recovery and wipe cache,wipe data, wipe systeam, then flash super wipe. Install ROM, then flash the cache wipe.zip I posted. reboot and let us know.

After you flash that you have to re root your device use regular cwm not touch and then flash whatever rom you want

I tried everything but its not working for me. Everything is still force closing and the same bloody rom and theme shows up everytime i flash a new rom. Tried flashing through the external sd card as well but no luck. It shoes Google Framework not working. is there any way around it. Its bugging me now. Even tried flashing cwm through rom manager but no luck there as well.

SORRY man cant do that. I worked really hard to earn this cell phone and wont let it go for free. I bought it for a full price off the contract and don't think will be donating it. I am pretty sure people will be able to help me here. Its not like the phone is dead. Its working except for a few disruptions. Besides people are offering me $450 even in such a condition.

W.I.P. Rom(port) miracle whiz. Rooted, deodexed. Multiwindow

This rom is a port from the note 2 ota update. It is a stock touchwiz based rom that is a work in progress. I need testers who will give positive feedback and ideas for updates. This rom has not yet been debloated. As this rom gets tested and I figure out which apps is and which apps is not used in multiwindow I will start to debloat on future updates. This is my first rom and as of right now it is working on my AT&T galaxy s3. If you are with another carrier and try this rom and it works please leave comments saying what carrier you are with. This is a test version so im sure we will find things that dont work if so let me know and ill work on a patch or update to fix any problems. I dont mind answering any questions but please read the thread all the way thru. Its a waste of time to keep answering the same questions over and over...
Flash at your own risk. I am not responsible for bricked phones, damaged phones, thermo neuclear melt down, inner planetary war, the economy, or a melt down of society....
Install instructions.... please read and follow step by step. If you do not follow directions to the letter then do not complain to me if your phone explodes, acts funny, or becomes a paperweight..
1. Download and copy the rom to your sd card.
2. Boot into recovery. I strongly recommend using TWRP especially if your sd card is in exfat format. Here is the link to the thread on XDA for the only version of TWRP to support exfat. The official TWRP on goo im will NOT support exfat on this version will. No version of CWM for the S3 will support exfat. I have read cases where both CWM and the official TWRP have recognized exfat cards but really screwed the flash up when attempted. So if you have exfat sd card and do not use the version below and end up with a bricked phone do not cry to me. It only takes a few minutes to download and flash the zip file in the thread below. Also the work in the thread below I take no credit for so go hit up
Eaglerazor123's thanks button for his fine work with this great recovery. ..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36095505
3. Dont be foolish or in a hurry. Take time to make a backup while you in recovery anyway. It only takes a couple of minutes and could really save you a great big headache later...
4.Format system, wipe data, (factory reset) wipe cache, then dalvick cache.. never ever dirty flash a phone. If you do not wipe everything do not cry to me when your phone dont work..
5. Flash the file you downloaded to your sd card.
6. Reboot. First boot will take some time so dont panic. Mine first boot took 5 minutes.
7. Enjoy...
Features..... this list will change as I update the rom..
1. Port from the note 2 ota update.
2. Rooted.

From the search I just did this is a common problem with cwm on the s3. Error 6 means something is going on with your sd card. Did you download to external or internal sd? And is your external sd card formatted in exfat? If so cwm does not handle exfat. There is a version of twrp that can handle exfat and it is what I used to flash this. I hope someone using twrp tries this that way ill know if I got an upload problem or if its a cwm thing. Oh is your version of cwm the latest version and is it touch? I really feel this is a cwm problem or a bad upload. Did you happen to check the md5?

HTC One V fails to complete a factory reset in TWRP recovery

I'm the type that likes to ALWAYS do a clean Rom install by wiping EVERYTHING. I've tried looking through the forums but cannot find a decent answer as to why my Virgin Mobile One V fails to perform a full factory reset immediately after swiping to confirm. All that displays is "make_extf4fs" and "FAILED" highlighted in red at the top of the screen. I tried every troubleshooting step recommended to me but still nothing seems to fix this issue and without a solution I cannot do a clean install of my roms that I normally do. What should I do? If anyone has a reliable solution please do help me out. I would greatly appreciate it.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium

It has been brought up in a thread here and I've been told not to worry about it and that it wont affect anything but in my opinion it does so i found a full wipe flashable zip that i use along with the other wipes. Let me know if u want and ill upload it and u can have it
Sent from my One V using Xparent ICS Tapatalk 2

It does affect because after it continued to fail I attempted to flash my Rom anyways and all it did was constantly reboot my phone so I had no choice but to go back to stock and reboot but am stuck with the same TWRP issue so if you can provide me with a wipe flashable zip that will do the same wipe procedure please do. Thank you very much.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium

Read the log on the screen. It is trying to wipe an sd-ext partition. If you haven't partitioned your SD card, then it will give you that error. It is still performing a full wipe of the other partitions.

Sorry if this is a noob question but this is my first time experiencing this issue so how exactly would I check to see if the sd card is partitioned? I assumed it would automatically be that way after flashing the recovery. It's always been that way up until now.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium

It's looking for a second ext partition on your card. This is used by various app2sd scripts (such as link2sd) to fool the phone into thinking the apps are installed on internal phone memory instead the normal android way. If you haven't partitioned it yourself, then don't worry about the error message. It's just letting you know it didn't find the second partition.

Oh OK so besides that a full factory reset is still being made? Because I thought that was the cause of my roms not working properly.

[Q] Possible hwr problem need advice.

So here's my issue. My phone no longer allows me to flash roms from my external or internal sd card safely. What happens with every rom I flash is twofold. Data connection is always lost, and any reboot causes the phone to boot directly into download mode bypassing the odin flash page. The phone recovers from this with a simple odin back to stock. However, not being able to use non stock roms is no bueno to me.
Does this sound like some internal hwr problem? Is this an SD card issue? Would love some insite.

Which recovery are you using?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium

Using clockwork recovery current version
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app

Every ROM I flashed had some bugs and they started to multiply. I used Super Wipe and killed EVERYTHING.
I then loaded every zip onto my micro SD via my computer and put it in my phone. Flash and Go.
I went back to stock rooted MA7. The glitches were gone,
So my suggestion is to do a recovery of your first full backup or do what I did.

Okay will try super wipe tonight thanks

Or if that doesn't work use twrp.

Okay, I can't find the thanks button for you guys. THis is the solution. Don't use CWM recovery. TWRP worked wonders, and because I didn't format recovery in cwm so superwipe would probably had helped as well

Glad its working now. I have never used cwm on this phone. But twrp has been smooth sailing.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium

Use twrp on my s3, and cwm on the wife's note 2. Never had a problem with cwm. Sounds like the problem was not doing a full wipe with cwm (and not a problem with the cwm recovery itself)? But, whatever works for you.

Try goo manager from the play store but with your phone connected to wifi instead. If that does not work, try the official twrp app.
