Issue flashing all custom roms - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

So I must be doing something wrong here. I had CM10 on my phone and upgraded to 10.1 . after i did that my txt and web icon from the bottom tool bar disappeared. So I flashed back to full stock (4.1.2) and started over with a different rom. I've tried 3 roms and get the same issues every time. 1) the txt and web icons are missing. 2) the theme does not load .
I do get the custom bootscreen when I load up and the custom menu under the setting menu so it seems like I'm loading only half the rom. right now I'm trying to get [ROM] [AOSPAL | MAGURO | B9 | 10.06.2013] Linaro 4.8 Optimized AOSPA to load.
I booted into recovery. wiped system cache, wiped dalivk, flashed rom, flashed gapps and flashed dalvik again. any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?

Stock for the gnex is 4.2 now flash the stock 4.2 then try it again

It might be me, but it looks rather weird.
My steps, using CWM usually are:
wipe data/factory reset
wipe /system
wipe dalvik
flash ROM
flash gapps
wipe dalvik
reboot.
Are you sure you did the factory reset option?

[Q] HELP!!!

i have a unlocked & rooted galaxy nexus....i flash the rom open kang build 22 & flash the gapps 4.0.4 after i rebooted. i stocked in bootanimation & hang up & appear the google logo, always like that...cannot start.....HELP please....
Wipe and reflash the ROM then Gapps, then boot.
Did you do a full wipe. Wipe factory/data, cache partition and in the advanced menu wipe dalvik cache. Then flash rom and gapps
After you flash the rom, wipe data,cache,dalvik and flash gapps. You cant just flash rom than the 4.0.4 gapps you will get the bootloop.
i already do full wipe & still the same problem?
1. Wipe data
2. Wipe cache
3. Wipe dalvik cache
4. Flash ROM
5. Flash Gapps
6. Reboot

I always flash like that never have a problem. Never reflash after flash. Try to flash another ROM OP to see if it was the ROM or not.

[Q] How to get rid of having to do a battery pull

Hey guys,
I always have to pull my battery out multiple times on reboots, or after flashing a rom.
When I change roms, I do a fact. reset and wipe cache/dalvik, on updates of same rom I only do a wipe of cache/dalvik. I tried fixing permissions.
How is this caused ? It eventually boot up every time, just very annoying.
Does wiping system help ? I've read that most rom dev's include it anyway in flashing rom.
Phone: Samsung Galaxy Nexus
Rom: AOSP Paranoid Android 2.99 beta 5
Recovery: TWRP 2.3.2.1
Thnx for your help!

I haven't encountered this but I sometimes get bootloop when I flash Gapps without wiping cache and dalvik. Whenever I flash a new ROM, I do factory reset, wipe system, cache, and dalvik. So you may try wiping all of them and make a fresh install of the ROM then see if this problem keeps affecting you. Just make a nandroid backup in case this does not help so you restore your whole data easily

Hey thx for your suggestions!
I always flash a "new" rom that way though. But an update of the same rom, I "dirty" flash, which should be fine according to everyone.
No matter what Rom/Kernel I use, I still frequently have to pull the battery out.
It's never from locking up within Android. It just freezes/loops on the Google bootlogo.
I once wiped everything, even the storage space, and it helped for a little while, but did not make it go away for good.
Could it be related to certain apps ? Maybe PGM or Seeder or smth ?
All input welcome

[Q] Pacman 19.1a not booting

Hello,
I'm having issues to get the Pacman 19.1a (GSM) to start. It's stuck at boot. I've tried flashing 19.1, which is booting fine, however this is not allowing me to enter a PIN code. This issue was reported fixed in 19.1a which is why I tried.
I'm using the following kernel: boot-HELLBOY-CM10-201212251747.img
Is anyone else experiencing this issue?
Thanks!

As far as I know, I'm using the latest hellboy kernel. I've tried CM9 and CM10, but they both have the same effect. Should I be mistaken, could you provide me with a download link or version number I should get?
@brusell: So it seems I'm not the only one? I would have reported it in the ROM's topic, however my current postcount does not allow me to...
Resolved in Verdion 19.3
Just wanted to post the "solution"; the issue has been resolved in version 19.3.
Ok so I did a factory reset wiped cache and wiped dalvic, installed pacman 19.3 using twrp and then flashed hellboy kernel and rebooted, but I've been stuck at the pacman logo for 2 hours!! Did I do anything wrong? Can you tell me how u got out of it on 19.1?Do i just wait for the battery to die?
nvr mind got it

Hey mate, i'm having the same problem as you did. Could you post the solution? Thanks in advance!

In between 4.2.2 and 4.3 problem.

I was on 4.2.2 XenonHD with LeanKernel. I directly flashed Cataclysm ROM with cache, dalvik cache wipe and factory reset on GooManager. It booted flawlessly the first time. Then after completing the startup I rebooted. But then I became stuck on the google logo (surprise surprise...)
I don't get it. Why did it boot perfectly the first time but not after a reboot?
Anyway, I tried to restore my nandroid backup of the 4.2.2 XenonHD ROM. But then I got stuk at the google logo again. Why?
I haven't backed up my mediafiles (music, photo's etc) yet, in case a factory image installation is needed. I assumed I didn't need to backup those mediafiles, becuase I already have a nandroid backup, meaning I can always go back to the last ROM.
Does anybody have a solution for this? I don't care if I end up booting in 4.2.2 or 4.3, as long as I can preserve my media files.
Or do I have no other options than installing factory boot image of 4.3, meaning my files will be gone?
Thanks in advance.
No as long as you don't flash userdata.img nothing will be wiped (I think maybe to be sure you have to check twice). You can use adb pull to pull the mediafiles if you want.

[Q] [HELP] Unable to install any 4.3 ROMs

Guys,
Need your help. I am unable to install any Android 4.3 ROMs in my G Note II. I have tried PA 3.99, ProBam 4.4.1, etc. but all of them getting stuck right at the boot animation screen. Here is my status and what I've already tried:
CWM Touch Recovery v6.0.3.5 (latest one available with 4.3 support)
Tried Android Revolution HD Super Wipe Script
Tried Factory Reset + Wipe Cache Partition + Wipe Dalvik Cache
Tried formatting Internal Storage
Tried the method: Factory Reset + Install ROM + Clear Cache/Dalvik + Install GApps + Clear Cache/Dalvik
Tried multiple wipe cache + wipe dalvik cache combinations as suggested in forums
Still no dice. I am stuck at the boot animation screen. If I install any 4.2.2 or 4.1.2 ROMs, all goes perfectly fine.
I had installed a 4.3 ROM previously, then reverted back to 4.2.2 for stability. Now I want to try 4.3 ROMs since they are much more usable now.
Any help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

It looks like you need to include a wipe of system partition when you perform the full wipe procedure, or as just recommended using philz recovery, use the wiped data/factory reset: Clean to install a new rom.

I got nandroid backups taken using CWM. I believe, if I move over to Philz, I might loose the ability to restore them, right?
No other method to do this using CWM? I can try formatting /system if required.

AFAIK PhilZ recovery can restore CWM backups. To be sure you can create a new Nandroid backup after installating PhilZ recovery.
(TWRP is the best for me )
Anyway do you flash a custom kernel or a mod/theme?

Nope, I never go for customer kernels or themes. Happy with default kernels.
I see.. Lemme try Philz recovery and wipe the system and retry installing PA 3.99.

That worked! I installed Philz recovery and used the "Clean to install a new rom" option under "wipe data/factory reset".
Basically, I had to wipe the /system partition. I was under the impression that it was /sdcard. But now in love with Philz Recovery with all those options, along with the goodness of CWM Recovery.
Thanks a ton for all who helped!
Happy for you
