Hey,
I've been trying to install this for the past 3 hours without success.
I have a unlocked bootloader with CWM.
I flashed the zip file not before I formatted everything. Installation did not show up any sign of errors.
But I keep getting a white screen after the FXP logo and nothing happens.
I also tried flashing .55 firmware first and then flashing Speed but to no avail.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!
try flash custom kernel with CWM adn support by SSpeed, and then via CWM flash ROM
I'll try that, thanks!
I'll try that, thanks!

Rebooted into recovery then backed up rom, formatted everything etc. tried to install several different roms using TWRP and Clockwordmod. CWM gave me a status 7 error and TWRP gave me the error updating binary script. It also said that i had no root and would like to install super su to root it. i said yes and then rebooted and it still did nothing. the only thing i can install are GAPPS files and files that ARENT ROMS. Im stuck and I need desperate help on how to fix this. ODIN wont flash the stock rom thats a tar file but will flash recoveries. PLEASE HELP ME
i wanted to install @niaboc79 's existenz ultra rom v2.. so..
i went according to the process as it was said
i did flash my phone with sony's latest firmware .2.67
i have a locked bootloader.
rooted and installed cwm.
then i put the v2 of existenz ultra rom in my internal storage..
wiped data, cache and dalvik cache..
installed the rom.
then when i pressed the reboot system now.. it said that rom may flash stock recovery on boot fix?
first i tried with yes, but it got stuck at the sony logo and would not go further.
again i did the same procedure and this time i tried no. but still it is getting stuck at the same place..
plz help... how to i get this rom running...
flash latest ftf for ZL, root then install CWM, now download existenz rom "v2" put it on your sd card, go to recovery flash the rom... you don't need wipe because you had installed ftf and it delete all (make sure no field is checked while flashing with flashtool)
i used that rom without problem... CM 10.2 now
ok so now i am on v1 of the rom cause of many tries i made it woukd still get stuck at the sony logo.
v1 installed without any problems..but don't know why the v2 is not..
any suggestion on how do i upgrade now without going into the bootloop again..:fingers-crossed:

Hi! I have encountered a problem, and really hope someone can help me!
Two days ago i flashed Omnirom Nightly on my n7105 to get Android 4.4. I was running cmw recovery but couldnt get the ota updates to work, so i was trying to flash open recovery instead. I used an apk that was supposed to install a script.
When i rebootet my phone, all i could get was the Note 2 boot image. It wont boot into recovery mode, or the rom. I am however able to boot into download mode.
Custom Binary download: Yes (4 counts).
Current binary: Custom
System Status: Custom.
How should i proceed? I've already tried to reflash cwm recovery, which did work, but didnt solve the problem. I am currently downloading stock firmware, but the file is 1.2 GB so it will take i while. Figured i should ask here in the meanwhile.
I'm not an expert at Android at all, im just a guy enjoying having custom roms and playing around a little. I do know that there are a lot of very talented people in this forum, and i really hope someone can help me find a solution. I've been googling for hours, but cant find anything that seems to work for me / or i dont fully understand and wont risk try before someone approves it.
Thank you, Vetle
EDIT: Is it correct that i cant flash any custom rom trough Odin? Or could i just flash omnirom again trough Odin?
If i manage to flash the stock rom and the bootloop goes away, will everything go back to normal, so i can flash cmw again and then a custom rom again?
No custom rom can be flashed through odin, as most of them are zip cwm/twrp base.
When u can only go to download mode, an official firmware only can help u through odin.

Thanks for the answer!
Yup, i have flashed a stock rom now and i got the stock recovery. Everything was working fine.
Then i proceeded to do a factory reset in the stock recovery and flashed cwm trough Odin. When it was done, it wouldnt let me into recovery again! I can still boot up the phone tough.
I've also tried Open recovery. CWM via Rom manager. Open Recovery trough Goo Manager... Still cant get recovery to work, the stock rom works tough.
Any ideas?
Okay, i tried to flash the stock rom again and installed Rom Manger.
It still showes TWRP and CWM under installed recovery and i guess these its these two who makes the problem.
My plan now is to figure out how to completely remove them. I've never done anything related to adb before, so i hope it possible to remove them in another way?
This is so weird. Somehow i managed to install CWM Touch via Rom Manager and it booted. When i choose reboot /pull battery it will only boot straight into CWM again. I tried to flash TWRP via Odin, wich sucseeds, but then it reboots into CWM again!
I am soo lost its almost funny!
EDIT: Since i could get into cwm now, i tried to flash omnirom, but it aborts and all i get is status 7...?
EDIT2: Latest now is that i suddenly managed to install TWRP via Odin, but i still cant install the latest omnirom, all it says is "updating partition details".

I had recovery problems in the last few days also.
Installed DN3 rom using philz recovery, because its capable of prepare the phone to a new rom in a easy way.
It all went fine until first reboot.
I had a recovery boot loop. All I could see were some buttons and then reboot again.
Like you I had download access and flashed philz with Odin, but no luck.
Installed twrp via Odin and all was fine, and flashed philz new version.
Then I had to flash a new kernel (to be able to access wifi) and it all started again. Now I'm back on twrp.
Let's see what happens on my next flash.
My suggestion is to flash the recovery, and if that's OK flash the rom and use it
Next time you need recovery get Odin to help, but not all the way from an original rom. Just the custom recovery.
But if you want to get rid of your strange recovery configuration, and you are not already on new 4.3 recovery(which in your case could explain some of the problems you had) , with knox, install an older original rom, 4.1, and make all the steps, root it, install a custom recovery, and from there the room you want.
Reading your path sorting this problem, that was what would do next
Best regards
When I try to install a rom it wont install system files it skips over them only to extract some apps which means no bootup.
Any suggestions?
I've tried to install stock and then wipe and then install a rom and i still get same result however sometimes when i flash stock with odin i get fail at the very end whether it be for HLOS file or modem...
I think i can fix this if i wipe my partitions and get them partitioned again.. or maybe one of Odin's tick marks could help??
:crying:
please help
I'll probably sell this phone
More information is needed. What version of stock are you running? Are you rooting your phone? Are you installing a custom recovery? Which custom recovery are you using? Name at least one rom other then stock you've tried to install and how you tried to install it. I would guess no one has responded because they don't have the information needed to give you the help you are asking for.

Im having the same problem too I cant seem to install no rom other then the backup of my Stouck MDL...I tired installing wicked rom and of course it got stuck at the Samsung screen and i did everything when it came to wiping it ....sooo the i tried insane KItKat and that to as well got stuck on boot and im on the latest TWRP 2.7.0.1 recovery running MDL stock
I've tried to install with CWM Recovery by OUDSH and TWRP and no luck I've tried installing WickedRom Hyperdrive and GE by Kot49H I can only install stock with Odin and the reason its not installing is because its avoiding the extraction of system files to the phone.
Hi Mates,
I was unlocking the bootloader of my Xperia M Dual. It went well but after that the phone went into bootloop. I read quite a few threads which suggest to flash stock rom. But I am having a few problems :
1. Cant find Indian stock rom, some links dont have the file others have a brazilian version. Please give a link.
2. Will flashing stock rom would work as I havent installed any backup CWM or TWRP ?
3, Can I flash cynogen nightly directly instead of flashing stock rom ?
4. Other things I should know prior flashing being a newbie.
5. BTW how much time does it takes to boot after unlocking bootloader ?

A1. This thread helped me. - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2532190.
A2. Yes, flashing stock rom would work even if you haven't installed any backup using CWM or TWRP.
A3. You can still flash CyanogenMod Nightlies directly instead of flashing the stock rom and then flashing CM again.
A4. Newbie here too! so I can't actually Suggest you anything
A5. It is supposed to take 5-10 minutes but even my phone went into bootloop.
What I did :-
> Flashed the old TWRP recovery from flashtool
> Installed CM and GApps
> Wiped Data/Factory Reset
> Rebooted the Device.
And VIOLA! the phone works like a charm!
I've been using the ROM for 2-3 days now and I have no major problems as of yet.
Hope this works out in your favour!
Happy Flashing!
After unlocking bootloader Bootloop is normal. You have to flash stock rom to fix it and also you can also flash any custom recovery(Cwm,Twrp) then flash any custom rom to fix it.
4.3 Indian Stock Rom
Recovery - CWM Philz
