Hello, Guys I'm having a problem with flashing CM and AOKP roms; I've tested the latest CWM and TWRP and I always get stuck on the boot screen. I've even checked the Md5 sum to make sure it matches. Still no dice. However I can flash Touchwiz roms without no problem. Any ideals what's going on?
When your flashing are you doing a full wipe of your phone? /data, /cache, /dalvik cache, format system?

I downloaded it,do i "flash" it for it to wipe,and do i still have to wipe data or does it do that by itself?
Help much appreciated

It wipes data, cache, and system for you. It tells you what its formatting as its flashing.

So i just flash it then and then i can flash rom

You flash it, then you must flash a ROM sometime afterwards or your phone won't boot into Android. It'll still boot into recovery, so you don't necessarily have to flash the ROM in the same session, but a ROM does need to be flashed (or a nandroid restore performed) before it will boot into Android.
After running flash all, your /system /data and /cache partitions are empty.

When I went from 4.0 to 4.1 I used the NO DATA version of his format tool and everything was AOK!

Did you still have to wipe data?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA
I should say if you are using Calks Format All, it will format /system /data and /cache and no need to wipe data again.
If you are using some other script then point out which one and I can take a look what it is doing.

No I did not have to wipe data to change from 4.0 to 4.1
This is the Blazer thread
If coming from a previous version of Blazer:
Don't flash using Hitman
Flash the modded format zip [Download] (It won't wipe data)
Flash Blazer ROM
Reboot, and Enjoy

Maybe start over. Wipe data, cache, dalvik, format /system, flash rom. Reboot back into recovery and wipe data & cache again. Reboot
I'm assuming you made a backup before flashing this, in the event you need to restore it if this does not work
Its not working again...think need to go back to 9

Which kernel versions have you tried? Those based on 3.0 or 3.4? I believe he may have changed the base for the ROM in this release. Are you flashing the ROM by itself or are you flashing multiple zips at the same time?

I found this ROM and it looks nice but it doesn't state wether its for the n7100 or n7105?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1992386&nocache=1
I have an N7100 but I just want to be sure.
And I was wondering is format system on CWM recovery the same as wiping cache and davlik? Im new to all of this
No one? It really can't be difficult to answer...

If you press the download button it takes you to the download page where they are all listed as N7100

No, formatting system will wipe the rom from the device. Cache and dalvik wipe only the "temporary file" partition.
Do not wipe system unless you are getting ready to flash a new rom. Cache may be wiped at any time and will not delete any of your data.

I want to format my phone to clean all the crap files iv accumulated. If I format through twrp, will it just reinstall the current rom I'm running? Did this before on my s4, just want to make sure. Thanks guys

Like internal storage you meant? I always do that on top of cache and dalvik wipe to get a full clean install and no trace of previous rom. To be on safe side always have nand backup when doing that.

Yeah like if I go to wipe, then select all except system or that also?

Factory reset, advance wipe, then I wipe cache, dalvik, system, data and internal storage. I have all my back ups in external card including copy of titanium backup for data. Then I flash any custom rom.

Good day fine community.
My Galaxy S3 i747M(Rogers) stays stuck @ Galaxy S3 screen after flashing this ROM S3Rx 3.0 TouchWiz 4.3 MJB (1-27-14) Full AROMA.
1. First succesfully flashed 4.3 bootloader and MK5 modem from within a 4.1 ROM
2. Then used TRWP, full wipe, formatted internal sd, flashed ROM and loaded well.
3. Then attempted a Nandroid, which for some reason stayed almost an hour in the "backing up system data", so I cancelled it when the "cannot finish" message appeared.
4. Then rebooted, and now stays stuck in Galaxy S3 screen.
I redid 1, 2 and 4, and still stuck, even if I let the phone rest for more than 10 minutes.
For the life of me, it seems to be a bootloader issue, but I am unsure.
Anyone has any idea what I did wrong?
Thank you.
Try wipe of /system and all other wipes that you can apply. These are under the advanced section of your recovery
This will wipe your whole phone. Then try and reboot

Reboot into what? Everything's wiped.

Builtnoob, did that. My sd card was fully wiped, as well as cache and dalvik. Thanks for the input.

Shortydogg, once i flashed and was in the launcher, and alk was working fine, I rebooted in to recovery to do nand. Even if the nand was uncuccessfull, i should still be able to boot into the rom, since it was already running. That is my question: how come it stays stuck at boot. Thx for looking into it.

Usually first boot takes a good half hour at times. Give it some time. However this could be due to a faulty flash. Or some corruption of data. Use twrp to mount your internal memory. Then redownload the ROM and reflash .
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
Did you format the internal SD or did you format the system, data, and cache from recovery?
audit13, I formatted everything but my ext sd card. Tonight I will try again, this time with fresh download and wiping cache and dalvik after flashing, before booting, and will report back. Thanks guys.

Don't forget the /system wipe as a lot of the stock ROMs do need it

An easier fix may be to just flash a pre-rooted 4.3 ROM that is made for the Bell, Telus or Rogers version of your phone. Then, load a custom recovery to flash custom ROMs.

Buildnoob, thanks for the info. I did fresh install and wiped cache and dalvik after flash and now all is well.
Thanks guys for the help.
