Cyanoganmod bootloop help! - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

I upgraded my phone from the stable cm10, to the experimental cm10.1 (stupid, I know), after getting too frustrated with the glitches I went to downgrade back to 10.0 using CWM, I did a factory reset, and cleared the cache and everything and found myself in a bootloop. Thinking I just had to live with CM10.1 until a stable version came out I tried to flash CM10.1 back on again to get out of the bootloop, unfortunately my phone is still stuck in a bootloop. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this? I'm thinking that flashing the stock ics rom, then reflashing cyanoganmod 10 might work but i'm not sure.

Thanks for the help man, did the stock rom flash which worked, then i did another cyanogenmod rom flash and still got a bootloop. I ended up just doing a darkside super wipe and it booted fine. One other quick question for anyone that can help, my phone keeps breifly freezing every 5 or so seconds, it's just like a quick stop and happens for everything from scrolling a page, to watching a video. Does anyone have an explanation for this?

bootloop with any rom

I have a serious problem guys...I flashed last version of paranoidandroid but since my phone was too slow I tried to reflash last version but it was slow again. Then I tried to restore a previous backup but it restored it only in 60 seconds and indeed the rom didn't boot (stuck on google logo). After that any rom I try to install does not boot, I tried previous versions of paranoid and also google stock image (deodexed and rooted). I don't know what to do, but I cannot wipe the whole sd card because I have some important data I cannot afford to loose...please help me guys I'm desperate.
I know the solution to this problem is always, wipe everything with the toolkit and flash google image, but I have some sensible data I cannot loose. Moreover I don't own a microsoft computer anymore so I wouldn't be able to use the toolkit. Is there anything else I can try?
Hmmm.. did you dirty flashed? :/ can you try again with wiping system, factory reset and cache and dalvik ... do you have any other ROM in your phone the one you had before?? try installing that again with wiping everything nd give it atleast 10 mins to start up i remember my phone stared really late with PA .. i know i might not be of that much help but i'm spitballin' here

Yes I tried to wipe everything 20 times, and I tried a couple of versions of PA and the stock deodexed rom which is all what I had on my phone, and nothing worked. I'll try to leave the phone for 10 minutes and see if it finally boots up. Cheers mate

Are you using the most up to date version of TWRP or CWM when you flash your ROMs?

Try to update your recovery to latest version as older recovery versions could face problems related to new file system structure.

stuck at google for 2nd time niw!

Hello, this issue has happened to me before , I was on a 4.2.2 ROM , I flashed unofficial cm10.2 4.3 rom by carlos, the ROM was acting buggy, so I rebooted, and then I'm stucked at Google , rebooted into recovery , wiped everything , flashed another ROM , still stuck at Google, I had to wip everything including my SD data ;( , flashed Google factory image , rebooted fine, my question is , why I cannot roll back or install another ROM after flashing a 4.3 ROM? I always has to wipe all my data , I thought twrp was the problem, but this time I was using cwm, I'm so confused right now , I'm scared if I flashed a 4.2.2 ROM , then come back to 4.3 I will get stucked at Google again! What could be the solution to problem?

Ok... so you wrote to my ROM thread about it and I try to help you!
1. Use CWM, I ahve no experience of TWRP and I can't help Nexus users who uses TWRP
2. Flash factory images by wiping everything
3. If you flash a ROM then in CWM wipe data factory reset <-- it keeps files in the internal storage
4. Then flash a ROM
5. If it happens again them maybe something is broken on your Nexus, then I recommend the phone service...
Sorry I'm busy ad I read that quick if I missed some lines or didn't understand something, then I apologize

You better get some rest bro, u didn't read anything,! This issue also happened to you also, you said a 10-15 pages back that ur stuck on google too after rebooting, ! P.s i will install dreams 4.1.x , and wait for a 110% stable cm10.2 by you!
if you're reverting back from 4.3 to 4.2, you should do the Factory/Data Reset and you should boot into OS just fine, i had that problem too and that is how i sorted it out.

4.3 issues

I have tried every method I can think of to get 4.3 to play nice with my phone. I have used Odin to flash stock and twrp, tried cwm recovery, tried beanstalk, hellybean, cm, and aokp. I changed twrp settings and infamous wipe. Everything I do always results with my phone getting stuck on the boot animation. Even if I clear caches, it will boot and get to the upgrading apps screen and then freeze and reboot and again stuck on the boot animation.
4.1.2 gets stuck on the kernel boot for me, 4.2.2 doesn't work with BT correctly. So frustrating.
Any suggestions are welcome.

Twrp 2.6.10 is the minimum. I am using 2.6.30. 2.6.00 will not work. Also wipe everything but SD. That includes android secure and preload.

Twrp version 2.6.3.0 has bugs and is causing issues for a lot of people.
Make sure you use 2.6.1.0 and see how it goes.

I have had Zero issues with 4.1 or 4.2 never bricked my phone---- until 4.3 I will tell you how i solved my problems - I have no boots, to 4.3 working but issues with data corruption and gapps crashing random apps crashing, finally after reading and reading i solved it.
1. Flash TWRP 2.6.1 (NOT 2.6.0, not 2.6.0.4 and especially NOT 2.6.3) any other recovery will not work properly - yes for some it may but some people seem to have some of the same problems.
2. Wipe data, Davlik, Cache and the prior rom. it has to be a clean wipe/flash
3. Flash Rom of choice (Black Liquid smooth is awesome)
4. Flash Standard gapps 08/13 (dont get fancy yet and flash slim gapps or inverted, just use the tried and true basic to get it working)
5. let the damn phone rest and settle 10 min minimum.
6. reboot to recovery, wipe Davlik and cache for good measure and fix permissions, reboot and enjoy.

[SOLVED] Unable to install custom rom after modem upgrade

Hello,
I have a unique issue. I'm having a problem installing any custom rom on my t999 (tmobile). I have been using a custom rom for over a year. Always used TWRP. Started with Paranoid Android and for the last few months I've been using PAC-Man (nightly) roms. I was having gps lock issues, I decided to upgrade the modem to a leaked UVUEMJC, this fixed the gps lock issue. But after the reboot, I was stuck on bootloader screen. The only way I could get the rom to work was to backup the rom, flash the system and data, and after that, the rom would work until reboot. I did this a few times until it stopped working. My efs was corrupted, IMEI missing, To recover it, I went into download mode, and noticed in red Warranty bit =1. I used odin to flashed a rooted cf 4.3 samsung touchwiz rom (root66_TMO_T999UVUEMJC). All imei/efs issues were fixed. I decided to try installing a custom rom again, PAC-Man rom, it installed just fine, all EFS/IMEI info was intact, but at reboot, I got stuck on the CM bootlogo. This happens everytime. IF I recover a backup, it gets stuck on the boot logo. I'm using TWRP v2.6.3.
Anybody have any suggestions on how to fix this issue?
Thanks!
Install TWRP 2.6.3.1. Then take a Nandroid.
Next wipe /Data. Then flash your Custom Rom. Wipe Dalvik + Cache after the Flash. Reboot and report.

Tried latest TWRP and CWM.
Suggestions?

Sounds like a dirty flash try another rom using transche myself which is fine.
i have tried that rom even nolekat and experience the exact same problems

I would suggest disabling the tablet of the apps you are not using and install greenify which will hibernate the apps until you are using them.

Try flashing the full stock firmware from sammobile; then boot into the stock recovery and do a full factory reset. If that doesn't work, then you may want to install a custom recovery and re-format (not wipe, but actually format) the data partition.
Ok will try that. After wiping the data partition what should i do?

I would boot into the complete stock system and see if you have any problems. If everything works fine when completely stock, then you can install a custom recovery and try some other roms.
Ok cool i really hope this works bud because I've tried everything even used twerp recovery to advance format system, data, cache and internal storage

still no luck gr8 i tried booting into stock still i get random app stops, like "unfortunately playstore has stopped"., "unfortunately systemui has stopped", "unfortunately touchwizhome has stopped", and all other apps depending on which one i'm using. they still come on back but its really annoying also i get random reboots. i feel like i have tried everything.
Did you ever get this fixed?
Did you ever figure out a fix? I'm having the exact same problem.

I've flashed back to the stock fimware from sammobile and I still have errors and random rebooting. So I rooted with CWM ad did a full factory reset, still the same problems. I've re-formatted the data and the data/media (/sdcard) partition,still the same problem.

Even a completely stock system, I'm having problems. I've tried wiping everything (cache, dalvik ,data/factory reset ) then flashing back to the stock firmware using Odin3 v3.09, and I'm still getting errors and random rebooting.
Has my t210 bit the dust?
Seems like a lot of people are having trouble with the new updates. I would try to find an older version of the stock rom and load it thru Odin 3.7 and see if you still have the same problems.
Same thing I'm thinking but I still have hope
Did any of you all clear your cache and dalvik-cache as part of the flashing process?
The 4.4 ROM is an update to the stock 4.2. If you use a custom ROM, you will probably need to reflash stock 4.2 in order to flash 4.4.
But this tab never had 4.2 only 4.1 and I did a complete wipe before flashing anything

Here's what I would do then:
Reflash 4.1, then try 4.4. If that doesn't work, flash all three consecutively. Gotta test around to find out what works.

We have got a V4.2.2 Version, but this was ported from the Tab 3 sm-t110 lite.
Format and wipe all folders using none stock recovery like CWM this will empty all junk left behind
Should I erase all this everything I've included in the screenshot?
