[Q] UnNamed ROM Install Fail

Hey all, I just want to say thanks in advance for any/all help!
I'm trying to install the UnNamed v2.0.1 ROM on my E4GT and it's not going so well.
I've rooted and installed CWM, installed the CRT screen off animation mod (just to check if things are working), done a Titanium Back-up, and even installed Calkulin's E4GT v2.8 ROM, but for some reason this ROM refuses to cooperate.
I rooted and installed CWM per these instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342728
I have gotten the same problem at least half a dozen times, once I hit "Reboot" from CWM after successfully installing the ROM, my phone stays stuck on the "Samsung Galaxy S II" boot up screen indefinitely.
I've tried to install from the stock EK02 ROM to the UnNamed ROM, used Rogue's Recovery (v1.1.1 if i'm not mistaken) to try to install it, and finally install it over Calkulin's ROM, all to no avail. I can recover using ODIN, but that's all that works, I can't even get to the CWM screen after I reboot my phone.
Like I said, any and all help would be appreciated! Thanks!!
P.S. I downloaded the ROM twice just in case something went wrong, still nothing.
EDIT: I've just installed the Starburst ROM over my stock EK02 without a problem, but the UnNamed ROM still fails.

Download Calk's Format_All.zip from his ROM thread. Run it 2x before installing UnNamed. I always install my kernel directly after UnNamed, before rebooting - I use EL29 by Team Rogue.

I noticed that it doesn't wipe the Dalvik Cache. Should I do that separately or leave it be?
Thanks for the help! I'll try it right now and let you know how it works

Go ahead and wipe that too. I usually wipe data & Dalvik manually, then format all zip, then install rom + kernel. Then reboot

This is a good method to use. Good luck buddy.

Running EK02 I rooted, installed CWM for EK02, went into CWM v 5.0.2.7, installed the EL29 modem and kernel, rebooted, went back into CWM, wiped data, wiped dalvik, ran Format_ALL 2x, installed unnamed, and STILL get stuck at the "Samsung Galaxy S II" screen. WTF?
EDIT: Reading Comprehension FAIL. Let me do it again with the kernel after unnamed.

After I try and install the EL29 rogue kernel after installing the ROM I get the error:
file_getprop: failed o stat "/system/build.prop": No such file name or directory
E:Error in /emmc/Rogue_ET-Stock-1.1.4.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.

Here is an md5 checksum of the ROM I'm using, if that could help.

You tried to install the kernel directly after the ROM? Not before?
If so, reboot into the ROM and let it sit. Then reboot into recovery and install.
If that doesn't work, try rebooting into recovery directly after the ROM install.

Yup, still got the same problem.
If I reboot, I get stuck on the "Samsung Galaxy S II" screen indefinitely. I can't get into recovery or anything else, I have to use ODIN.
Here's what I'm going to do to try and flash it again, step by step, let me know if anything is wrong.
1.) Flash EK02 using ODIN (after getting stuck)
2.) Root using sfhub's method
3.) REBOOT to home screen
4.) Install BootIMG + CWM for EK02 (v5.0.2.7)
5.) REBOOT to home screen
6.) REBOOT to CWM
7.) Recover to my nandroid backup
8.) REBOOT to home screen
9.) REBOOT to CWM
10.) Wipe data/factory reset
11.) Wipe Dalvik cache
12.) Install Calkulin's FLASH ALL, twice
13.) Install UnNamed's v2.0.1 ROM
14.) Install Rogue's v1.3 Kernel
15.) REBOOT to home screen.
How's that?

Just use sfhub's auto root to root and install CWM. After CWM installs reboot the phone. Then, reboot to recovery, wipe, and install UnNamed + kernel of your choice.
Good luck

Finally installed! Idk what happened differently, but it worked! Thanks!!

Nice! Welcome to the UnNamed community

Thanks for the welcome, but I spoke too soon -_- It got past the "Samsung Galaxy S II" boot screen and played through the ICS animation, but now it's stuck on a black screen. I can't get to the home screen. Agh! I can get to CWM, but it won't get to the home screen, no matter how long I wait.

I'm running out of ideas... maybe reflash the ROM without wiping.

I'll try that next.
I've been attempting to install from the internal SD card if that's of any help. I just got a microSD card that I'll be attempting to install from soon.

Shouldn't be an issue

Was looking to make a new thread but I'll jump in for a noob question....
Right now, I'm running Calk's v.2.8.1 rom with Rogue Kernel 1.3 and modem el29. theme is team venum ICS..
If I were to stay with the exact same set up as above, except put UnNamed ROM, would it function correctly?

[Q] Stuck after ROM flash

I have the Sprint S3 with 4.1.2. Last night I rooted it and it worked fine. I then flashed CWM Recovery and rebooted, all was fine. Tried to put on Liquid Smooth rom and didn't have gapps, attempted to flash gapps but came up with error. Got fed up with it and tried to flash the Synergy Rom. I cleared dalvik and cache, made a backup and flashed. Went through the whole process and auto rebooted afterwards. Went to SAMSUNG on boot and screen went black before finishing and will not go further. I can get into stock recovery but not CWM Recovery. I'd like to have the liquidsmooth rom on there but i also downloaded the stock 4.1.2 rom just in case. How can I get past this to get into either CWM recovery or somehow flash a rom from Odin? I'm stuck.

So you were able to get into the custom recovery (CWM) a couple of times before flashing Synergy Rom, but now it's reverted to stock recovery? When you turn your phone off and hold Volume up, menu, and power it boots into the stock recovery? I've never heard of that happening before.
The best way is to re-do your root process through Odin a-la qbking77's tutorial. This will install CWM again and then you can flash away. Make sure you check your md5sums on the Rom files you downloaded before flashing them. That's the most common cause of bad flashes around these parts.

I've ended up fixing it but had to flash stock 4.1.1 on it from Odin and then it automatically went to 4.1.2 after reboot. Thanks
But yes, it was going to CWM just fine before I flashed Synergy after Liquidsmooth. Thats how I put on Synergy. But at least it was just a soft-brick.

Did you wipe (everything) between flashes? Even roms of the same version can have issues if you flash one over the other
By everything I mean /system, /data (factory reset), dalvik cache, and cache

USB Debugging not accessible

Hi
I was flashing back to Stock from task650 to fix my gps. Well something blew up and when the phone reboots the screen goes black but I hear the AT&T start-up tune. Essentially I can't get to enable USB debugging to reflash. I can get to download or recovery, but there are no files to recover<?> and busybox never got installed.
What do I do now?

Do you have the stock recovery now? If so, try going in there and resetting to defaults. That helps sometimes.
Otherwise, you may need to Odin back to stock if you still want to go stock.

Yes I have stock recovery. Odin is of no use because it hangs waiting for the USB debug to respond. And i can't turn it on because the screen is black and I can't navigate

Do you have a micro sd card? If so, throw a rom on there. If you want to go back to stock, there' a flashable stock zip at the bottom of post #2 in the link in my signature. Under the emergency toolkit section. Flash that, turn on use debugging, do your gps fix and continue on with the task release

i dont know why some of these things are not working correctly for you. you're seeing the red triangle because you have stock recovery now from the stock firmware zip. you cannot flash anything in stock recovery nor can you format /system. what happens when you boot up after a factory reset and cache wipe?
a couple of your options include either using odin to flash the stock firmware back onto your device or to use odin to flash a custom recovery back and make a move from there.

When it rains it pours. Now I can't get into recovery. I get the empty battery graphic cycling on and off, and its very warm to the touch. I think the battery is not charging.
I tried using Odin and flashed a stock rom but I kept getting verification errors and status 7 errors. Things just are not taking. I fear I've got a hard brick and I don't know what to do to fix it.
I appreciate your help

aaaaand let the questions roll:
you got verification errors in odin? and after flashing the firmware, i'm assuming you then flashed cwm and that's where you were getting the status 7 errors?
at what point did it all go off? i need to know what order you did all of these things.
can you still get into download mode?

No, it won't go into download. I initially flashed stock rom, but I don't think I wiped anything. That was probably the big mistake. I used something called Samsung S3 QCom tool kit to do an initial flash. It never failed me before. And I also flashed a CWM.
I followed your advice and made a emergency SD kit and flashed from there. I did a clean flash several times. Things just never worked and I kept getting those error messages. Then it just got more difficult to get into download. Now it just flashes a drained battery

it might indeed be drained. leave it plugged in for a while and report back.
you were getting the error/status 7 messages after you flashed cwm back on it likely because the cwm wasnt up-to-date.
what was the last thing you tried before it stopped working altogether?

It gets really hot if I leave it plugged in. But it seems like I can get into recovery again. The last thing I flashed was CMW 6.0.3.1. But what is on it now is CMW 5.5.0.4

actually, what you're saying is the last thing you flashed was cwm 5.5.0.4, just via odin not cwm.
if the phone was in my hands, i would:
flash the cwm 6.0.3.1 zip, select advanced and reboot recovery. now you will be in the updated cwm recovery.
perform a full wipe: wipe data, cache, dalvik, format /system, format /data
flash rom and gapps. if you're going to stick with tasks, use the 4/23 release. i'm on that with no feature or stability issues.
wipe data, wipe cache, reboot.
give it a few minutes to boot up.

I tried editing the updater-script but I couldn't getit to save the changes properly.
Well I will now re flash the RM and CWM and hope for the best

[Q] wiping cache and dalvik caused boot loop?

my s2 was being glitchy so i went into recovery to wipe cache and dalvik and then rebooted from recovery. i waited and then it just boooot loops and shuts off. im currently using cwm recovery 5.2.7 or something like that. will i be able to flash the newer roms like CyanogenMod 10.2 with that current recovery? and why did the wiping of cache and dalvik booot looped my phone? i thought wiping those just makes my phone less glitchy

You probably had some other issues to cause phone to be glitchy in the first place.
When flashing a new ROM it's recommend you wipe data, system cache and dalvik cache.(cache and dalvik can be wipe after the ROM install before rebooting)

No, you are going to have to update to either the newest TWRP or CWM to flash 4.3 ROMs.

I'm gonna jump in and hope this isn't a hijack. I had a similar experience but I wanted to update to the latest TWRP so I could flash a 4.3 ROM (Simbean) .
I Odined in and flashed TWRP 2.6.3. Was able to flash the Slimbean ROM but on first reboot I can't make it past the Samsung screen.
I can get back into TWRP but everything fails. - typical process. "Fix permissions- Success", then "Full wipe - Success" then "Fix permissions (cause I'm trying anything at this point)- Failed"
In TWRP Restoring backups "Failed" Flashing new image "Failed" In between I've tried Erasing everything but the MicroSD card and starting fresh but Noting will install.
I've reflashed TWRP through ODIN but same issue. A couple of times I've got a restore to work but if the phone sleeps it won't wake up. I can only get back to TWRP.
What is the Nuclear Option? Or have I done that already? I've been flashing for years. I've never seen anything like this.
Help.

what I did is to hold the power button/ remove the battery of your phone. Open it again and wait for it to start. no bootloop.

[Q] My phone will not boot up/cannot Access Recovery Mode. ( Samsung Galaxy S3)

Hi guys,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 I747m, running Cyanogen Mod and as of right now, it will not turn on. It will begin the boot animation and the freeze once it reaches the end. I cannot access Recovery Mode but I can access Download Mode. This all began when my version of gapps started glitching, or at least Google play Store. I downloaded a new gapps and tried to install it without wiping out the dalvik cache or uninstalling the old gapps. Yes I am a noob at this and an idiot.
Please guys if anyone of you has the patience to tell me what I need to do to get my phone operational again. please do so. My family is not doing well financially right now and can't afford another phone. Please give me some hope. Please.

Well.....I'm not expert but I can tell you its not hard bricked. So you're safe for now. I suggest checking out how to flash another OS using download mode. I believe it involves using your sd card as a "bootable media". (Like, usb stick for windows 7)
Do some research about that. And I think it should work.

Try this!

I would try and flash a new recovery image either twrp or cwm through download mode using Odin and try getting back into recovery and clean flash cyanogenmod and gapps all over again. Basically start from scratch and see if it fixes the problem, if you can get in to recovery mode after flashing a new image you may only need to wipe cache/dalvik to fix it but I'd start with trying your best to get a recovery image reflashed and the ability to get into recovery mode. You can find the images for recovery at the official sites either twrp or clockwork recovery and the instructions on how to flash them anywhere by searching through Google! Hope this helps you

From download mode you can flash a stock firmware with Odin unless you have installed the stock 4.3 update. This will wipe your phone but you will have it booting and recovery back.

Thank you so much! However, in the Clockwork Mod website, it does not say anything about downloading Clockwork Recovery. What should I do from this point? Also, some people suggest installing an entirely new OS. Would this be a better or worse solution compared to flashing Clockwork Mod Recovery?
Thank you once again!

As for your previous post, the Clockwork downloads are under the 'Rom Manager' tab here: http://www.clockworkmod.com/.
Twrp recovery here: http://teamw.in/project/twrp2 (Hit 'Get TWRP for your device' then this link at bottom of page 'Download - Odin Flashable Tar:').
Which you chose depends on which you had before the issue and whether you want to restore a previous backup once recovery is restored. If you are not going to be restoring a back up, I'd recommend the TWRP file as it can be flashed with Odin.
Your other option is to Flash a stock firmware from Odin and start from scratch. This can be the more labor intensive way because you then need to setup the phone again and get it back to how you like it. The benefit of this method is that it wipes absolutely everything, including whatever problem had you screwed in the first place. Because I tinker with my phone a lot, I always have everything important stored on an external SD. Pictures, Titanium Backup, Nandroid, etc. If you have backups of everything you need off the phone, I'd recommend that you Odin it. If you do not have things backed up try installing recovery first and getting the phone to boot. In the end if you do chose this method you should still wipe as there was obviously something that really buggered your phone and a wipe will be the best way to fix that so it doesn't recur. That's my opinion anyway.

Update!
Apparently I can access Recovery Mode now!! However, it still does not boot up. I backed up all my filed to my external 8GB SD card, and then wiped the dalvik Cache. Nothing. I did a full Factory reset and still nothing. AM I missing a step? Is there a step I should take before or after clicking full wipe? The phone boots all the way to cyanogen mod logo, where an arrow spins around it. However, that's all it does.
Any ideas?

So you can access recovery mode?
*Before you follow the next steps, understand everything will be deleted from your PHONE, NOT sdcard.*
You have to wipe everything clean. That means(in recovery mode):
Wipe Data/factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Wipe dalvik cache
Then you would install your rom. From there everything should work. Also, are you installing CM10.2? 10.1? 11? (I personally suggest 10.2.)
