Telus CM 10.1

How do I flash CM 10.1?
I tried using Goo Manager but it cant find any roms for my device. I've downloaded the d2att from the CM website, put it on my phone booted into clockwork, did my backup, wiped cache etc etc, then I select the CM 10.1 and it says something about the wrong device.
How do I flash this thing?

dont use goo manager (or rom manager for that matter) to flash ROMs. what version of cwm are you running?

You'll also need to install the d2att recovery for your phone. Our telus phones have d2can in the build prop and can make flashing a pain.

Sorry guys, I figured out my cwm was out dated, I was running 5.5.x.x so I updated to as new as I could find, used odin to flash it over then booted and flashed CM 10.1
I had a boot loop though, so I had to re-clear my data and cache then flash 10.1 again and now all is well. Restoring my backups now.

How do I install d2att recovery? Will it wipe any of my data?

It won't wipe anything. You just flash it in recovery and reboot to recovery and you're good to go.

follow the link in my signature. near the bottom of post #2 (in the build you're own toolkit section) there's a link to a cwm flashable 6.0.3.1 recovery. thats the latest d2att one. flash it in cwm, go to advanced, select reboot recovery. make a new backup. cheers

What exactly is D2ATT Recovery? Before I start looking to flash it.
Thats a wicked guide by the way, I was close to smashing my head against a wall trying to find a decent guide to flashing, too bad I didn't find yours originally.

Our Telus phone is a d2can build. The at&t model is d2att. The phones are identical, because the majority of the roms are made for the d2att it's a lot easier for us Canadians to flash that recovery.
The recovery is either clock work mod or twrp made for the d2att.

d2att is the at&t variant of the S3. Having a d2att based recovery installed will allow you to successfully flash the at&t ROMs.
If you're still getting an error, You may have to edit your build.prop. Or, possibly Odin flash the cwm recovery in the root from recovery method found in the general section. You would then update the recovery with the cwm zip in my signature link.

I am currently on 10.1 without any issues, flashing was easy, do I still need to flash the d2att recovery?

You hadn't specified that you got it installed correctly. In that case, just stay put and enjoy your phone. Cheers, buddy!

Flashing issues need help!

First off I'm not a noob. But nor am I a pro...
Rooted gs4 day 1 before tmobile update. Installed twrp from goo manager then flashed wicked v2.
I've tried to flash Darth stalker since yesterday, it fails every time. Made sure the whole file downloaded
And verified md5. Still fails. Then I tried flashing new wicked v3. Fails as well. Any suggestions?
Only thing I have flashed that did work since I successfully flashed wicked v2 was a cm10.1 nightly but the gapps failed. I currently have a nandroid of stock before wicked v2. Please any advice will be greatly appreciated.

before you flashed Darth, you say you did a nand backup, if so, can you restore the backup, to see if you can recover?
Also, you are not giving many details, like what method use are using to flash and so on. Better details result in better responses.
Good luck.

I'm flashing via twrp. I've recovered twice already. I wipe cache dalvik and data before trying to flash. Is there something special about this phone where there are extra steps needed to flash? I only have like 2.1gb internal memory could that be it? Flashing via twrp in recovery. Have the latest version of twrp

I'd install clockwork

Does clockwork have a touch version now?

Thx
Hey guys Thx for your help.
What I did was use the flash ROM option in goo manager to flash wicked v3. It worked so I'm guessing I need to install twrp again. It doesn't make sense seeing that all goo manager did was take me to twrp recovery. IDK but from now on that's what I'm going to do from now on.
Thx for all your help and for everything you guys do I've been on xda since my first android phone in 2009 and I've recommended you to all my friends who like freedom in their devices. Keep up the good work

When you flash roms like Wicked 2, or 3 or any custom cwm/twrp flashable zip file rom you don't need to
install/flash twrp each time you change and flash a rom.
The TWRP recovery does not get deleted or over-written when you flash wicked rom or any other rom which uses twrp or cwm.
This also holds true if when you make a nandroid backup and restore roms too, you don't need to install/flash twrp.
Once TWRP recovery is installed/flashed on your phone the only way it will get deleted/over-written is if you flash
a full Odin Flash rom like for example, if you flash the stock Odin flash rom it will over write TWRP.
Good luck!

It sounds like you haven't downloaded the full ROM. Verify that the file size matches the link you downloaded from. All my failed flashes have been because the file didn't completely download.

[Q] Failiure to install cm 10.1 with TWRP

Hey guys,
So im having trouble flashing cm 10.1 or any other rom on my samsung galaxy s3 i747m (rogers)
i have read all the other forums but still cant figure out my problem. i rooted my phone a few days ago and everything worked perfectly, i started out with cwm recovery and i kept getting error 7... when trying to flash cm 10.1 nightly.
i thought at first maybe i have the wrong file but im pretty sure its not the case.
i then updated Supersu, that didnt solve my problem either.
then i deleter cwm recovery and installed twrp with goo manager (latest version)
and now i get failiure to install....
im sure i am going through the right process as i have watched many videos and read the forums
ex: backup/ wipe cache/ wipe dalvik cache/ factory reset/ then install rom / and gapps
gapps works but i am never able to install the cyanogenmod nightly always says failiure to install..
Please help!

This is a bootloader issue. Please check out and carefully look over the information provided at the top of post #2 of the link in my signature.

thanks
Thanks a lot, i got the bootloader file. however when i use ondin, should i load it with PDA or Bootloader?

You don't have to delete data I always do to get rid of clutter
It won't wipe your sd card (that option is in advanced wipe). You should always move your backups and important stuff to your sd.

[Q] Wind SGH-T999V CM Help

Okay, I'm new to Android and I heard this is the go-to spot for help. Anyway, this is what happened to my Wind SGH-T999V. Mind you i'm VERY new to this rooting thing
I rooted my S3 by using TWRP 2.6.3.0 and i used odin3 v1.85 and it worked. I downloaded a root checker and it said i'm rooted. Then i put CM 10.1.2 on my sd card and wanted to install it via TWRP recovery but it gave me an error that said "No MD5 filed found" or something along those line.
I then tried to use different versions of twrp ( twrp 2.6.1.0) and a different CM (10.1.1) but i still got the same "no Md5 found" error. So, a friend then told me to ditch twrp all-together and download CWM instead. So, I download recovery clockwork touch 6.0.3.7 and put it on my phone.
THEN, i tried to go back to the recovery boot place, but after that small blue font saying "recovery boot", my phone goes black. I dont see the old twrp recovery or the clockwork one.
I just really want to have Cyanogenmod on my phone, i've been having a hard time. Help please?

Just disable the md5 check, most or the ROM files are not going to include a hash file, but will flash fine. TWRP or CWM will error out if the flash fails.
Also, it sounds like your recovery install failed, just reinstall using ODIN and a file from @DocHoliday77 (I recommend TWRP over CWM, but it is just preference)

It's already unchecked.

Install TWRP and try again, should work without issue. Also, redownload the ROM file, preferably the latest version, 10.1.3RC2 (I think)

Don't use RC2. If you want stable, use 10.1.2. get.cm, filter it for your device. I think Doc also has them in his signature.

"Stable" is relative, the RCs are just as good.

You need to edit the install script because your device isn't supported. Or you can download Doc's version.

Actually I'm pretty sure cm includes the T999V, but I'm betting the firmware needs to be updated.
Look in Aerowinders Sig for the links to the firmware. In that OP you should find a link to the thread with the T999V firmware.
Or, you can go to my T999L thread and get the Rom there. But w/o updated firmware it may be buggy.

CM10.1.3 is now Stable and will be the last 4.2.2 build. It should has the all of the Asserts, including the MB7 one. Also, update your TWRP, the current is 2.6.3.0.

I want to install CM so bad but after reading lot of threads n comments, I am scared. there are many terms used, i even dont know like flash kernel, OTI, radio etc... i just know about rooting, recovery and ROM... so i have decided to install PAC man instaed its a combination of couple roms and is most successful and stable..

[Q] Can't install new ROMs

So I'm currently running Cyanogenmod version 10.2.0 .. Android 4.3.1.
I've updated to the newest version of TWRP.
I factory wipe, then try to install a different ROM.. for example I've tried PA & AOKP.
Every time I try this it fails within 1 second and I have to restore a backup and go back to Cyanogenmod.
EDIT: I have a T-Mobile Galaxy S3
I have attached an image of when I get an error when I try to flash.
UPDATE:
Alright so I was able to get past that error by going into advanced wipe and selecting "System". Now when I flash I get a new error. I am attaching a new picture.

Update your recovery. You're using TWRP 2.5.5.0 when the latest one is 2.6.3.1. If you can't boot into Android, Odin the TWRP recovery. Also, make sure you completely wipe your internal storage before flashing a custom ROM. If that custom ROM isn't working for you, try another one to see if that flashes since that would indicate that the custom ROM you're trying to flash could potentially be a bad download.
You also need to post more information about your phone.
Which custom ROM are you using?
Which kernel are you using or trying to use?
etc etc.

I've tried flashing multiple ROMS.. Slimbeam.. AOKP.. ParanoidAndroid.. I've downloaded from GOOManager and I've also downloaded from external links and put on my external SD card. Nothing works. Like I said in the OP I am running Cyanogenmod 10.2.. Android 4.3.1. I'm using the Ktweaker kernel.
I updated my TWRP from Goomanager and it only updated to 2.5.5.0. How do I get it to update to 2.6.3.1?

So I just went to update TWRP from goomanager again and when it went to download it failed because "invaid MD5 sum".
Edit: So I tried updating again and it said it was successful. I rebooted into recovery and it still says 2.5.0.0
I'm lost.

Same problem happened to me last night, I tried to install the modem again but the same error keep coming up.

To everyone with issues updating recovery. Goo has a openrecovery script issue. Your best bet is to flash latest Recovery using Odin. You may choose to use Mobile Odin if you feel like it.

Can't restore anything except Kitkat
I keep getting the same error, except I can't flash or restore any rom that isn't kitkat (all the kitkat roms are buggy so i want 4.3 back). I reflashed twrp 2.6.3.1 with odin but its still not letting me flash anything.
Also if it helps I can't copy anything from the internal SD to the external SD using twrp file manager.

Older Rom's backups can't be restored due to file system changes. You will have to wipe everything and flash fresh if you want 4.3

I tried the latest version of TWRP, and I'm on StockROM by TeamInferno. I got V7 and I saw an update on it last night (V8) so I downloaded it and tried to install it fom Clockworkmod recovery and it didn't work so I tried TWRP and the same thing happened. Do I have to wipe everything to update my ROM?

Nothing will flash except Kitkat

Ive tried that multiple times. once the Odin flashable tw 4.3 downloads, I'm going to try that but I can't flash any fresh roms using twrp except 4.4 (Jellybam to be specific).

What is your TWRP Version ? Also what is your Bootloader version ? (No its not the baseband)

My bootloader is T999UVUEMJC
My baseband is uvuemjc
TWRP is version 2.6.3.1 (I've also tried 2.6.3.0)
I think it got updated bootloader/baseband when I odin flashed stock tw 4.3 (the only jellybean ROM that works)
I also made a backup of my 4.4, but it wouldn't let me restore even that.

You have been talking about 2 different things.
1. Flash a New Rom - Either Touchwiz or AOSP. $.3 or newer.
2. Restore a Rom - I think you are talking about a Nandroid Restore.
If you are referring to Point 1 as "Restore Rom" then you need to change terminology in order to help us understand your problem correctly. Re-Flashing a rom that you used to have is still Flashing not "Restore".
With that UVUEMJC Bootloader, you can completely forget about flashing previous Touchwiz Firmwares such as UVDMD5 or UVDLJC. If you tried them, you WILL brick your phone. If you tried Custom Touchwiz Roms based on those 2 firmwares, it may or may not work.
Now if you are trying to flash a AOSP Rom, either 4.3 or Kitkat 4.4, and you do have latest TWRP, (2.6.3.1), please specify the error message in detail.
You must do Factory Reset and Wipe Dalvik + Cache in the Recovery before flashing the AOSP Roms.
