[Q] Stuck on CM10 Nightly 12/10

Is there anything I can do?
So I installed the 12/10 Nightly of CM10 and I am stuck on this ROM. After about an hour all my application force close including Trebuchet. When I reboot into recovery, TWRP 2.3.1.1, I try to restore one of my backed up ROMs. It looks as though everything goes fine on the restore, but when I reboot system, I am still on the 12/10 Nightly of CM10.
I have tried re-installing TWRP, I have tried installing a new different ROM, I have tried re-rooting using odin, I have tried un-rooting using odin, I have tried installing CWM in a zip form and pushing it by command prompts and I am just about out of all options. I have also tried to install super su and uninstall and re-install superuser, thinking it might be that and no luck there either. I am not sure what to do.
Please help if you can.

You shouldn't have too, but try formatting system before flashing.
And of course wipe cache and dalvik.
Best of luck,

Yeah I always wipe cache/dalvik, wipe system and factory reset before installing anything new.

try pulling the battery? try twrp 2.2.2.0? i had problems restoring w/ twrp 2.3.1.1. where i didn't have problems with a rom before but after restoring that same rom, i would run into rr and sod.
which cwm did you try to install? did you try sk8erwitskil's cwm? install over twrp, reboot recovery, and then install from there? if not, maybe try a different sdcard?

I always do this. Wipe factory then system then cache then dalvik in that order and never had issue. I also went back to twrp2.2.20

I have tried all versions of CWM and I have tried going back to twrp 2.2.2.0 and everytime I reboot I am still on 2.3.1.1. No matter what I do I still stuck on CM10 and twrp 2.3.1.1.
What could have happened? It seems as though nothing will flash properly.

This sounds like what happened to my 32GB SanDisk card; it turned read-only. Have you tried flashing a ROM? Maybe with CWM.

So I have read around to see what could be wrong. It sounds as though my phone is not writing to the nand. Is there anyway to fix that or no?

Have you tried restoring to stock Rom via Odin or flashing from a app that does it for you?

wiped. tried flashing aborted and got above error message.
then went to advanced then boot recovery. tried again same error.. im scared to reboot!! haalpp?

Sounds like a bad download re download check to verify the md5 is correct then in recovery go to mounts and storage enable usb mass storage copy file from computer then flash again and no your not bricked after the wipe you won't have a rom until you flash one

Yeah, every time I get the status 7, I got a bad DL. If you have a nandroid, load that and start over

Got it fixed. I used a different rom I even re downloaded and tried again. Same thing..

If you get a status 7 on aosp/cm based roms, flash a tw rom boot it up reboot to recovery flash rom, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache/dalvik, flash rom again, flash gapps, wipe cache/dalvik and reboot. Some cm/aosp roms dont flash right if you wipe before flasing and need a piece of the existing tw rom to actually stick. Once you flash it the first time then do the usual wipes and flash like normal

I would reflash the recovery. Are you on the current TWRP?

Go back into recovery and wipe Cache and Dalvik, then fix permissions. it should boot. The Lost+Found folder can't be found because you deleted it when you flashed with ODIN. Not really needed for what you are trying to do anyways.

[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.

Upgrading to the newest TWRP did the trick! Everything is working fine now. :good:
Thanks for the help!

I'm also having trouble flashing PAC-man.
SGH-T999LUVUBMK4
Factory reset everything, wiped SD card.
Tried latest TWRP and CWM.
Suggestions?

[Q] Every flash fails

I'm currently using the stock 4.1.2 rom from Sprint, have TWRP 2.6.3 installed and the phone rooted. Every 4.4.2 rom I've tried to install fails and I have to restore my TWRP recovery.
I've tried CM 11, AOKP, Pac-Man and a few others. I've been copying the rom and recommended GAPPS to the internal storage, rebooting to TWRP/recovery, doing a factory wipe then 'Installing' the new rom. Most fail almost immediately, I'm really not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Make sure the TWRP you're using is for KK. You'll find them in the TWRP thread or the root guide.
