[Q] Problems Flashing JellyTime 4.2 R4.

I tried to flash Randomblames 4.2.1 R4 rom and upon rebooting I get stuck in a FC loop with the phone or launcher process. I did clean wipe and I'm also using TWRP 2.3.3.0. I'll check if there is an update to my recovery and post back tomorrow, but for now does anyone have any ideas? I would post this in the development rom section, but I'm not allowed to.

Try 4ext

I've been flashing so many times any 4.2 version, thanks to every dev!!!.
I'm always using 4 EXT recovery without any issue, so I recommend to use it.
Try to search 4 EXT Recovery Updater App in the PlayStore and good luck.

Never had a problem with CWM here.
I have flashed around 50 different JB roms - and also older GB ones.

Me too... But i'm with 4ext not CWM.
Masterchrome, have you tried to format all partitions (except SD)?

If you have rooted the HD with AAHK ClockWorkMode Recovery is installed. You can use that way. First you can format the SD-card in the Advanced menu. Remove the SD-Card and connect it to the PC. Copy R4 and Gapps to the SD-card, and put the card in the Phone. Start CMR and flash both. I did it that way, no problems!

[Q] Rom flashing installer always stops :S:S

Hey guys!
I faced with this annoying problem today. I successfully rooted my phone then made a backup with twrp? or smth like this and then I could successfully install myonev rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1647052 and then the titanium-kiss kernel as well.
Everything worked like a charm until I wanted to install a new rom. I moved the rom's zip file to the sd card then wiped cache and then tried to install the new rom, tried with bluesense and with suprimo too. When they started to install the rom they always gets stuck and the buttons appear which says next and save log. If I click on next it says that it successfully installed but its not true. And I get this problem with both of the roms.
I tried to do factory reset as well. I tried to do everything like in this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1996665
Please help me.

[Q] first time trying to install new rom on NOTE 2 - aroma installer freeze

Hello. As you can guess, I need help.
I'm trying to install a custom rom, but the installation seem to stop on the aroma installer
quick background :
I have already installed custom roms on a few other devices ( kindle fire, HTC desire, and desire HD )
First time trying it on my Note2 N7100.
I spent about 5/6 hours reading the forums, trying to sort out what I was going to do. Here is what I tried.
I start from stock, never touched 4.1.2
I use Odin and flash Philz recovery 6.07.9
Reboot on said recovery, go to wipe and clean to install new rom
install rom, select zip from external SDCARD
Select DitoNote3
aroma start ...
I see conditions, accept
I see changelog, press next.
And nothing happens. Screen stay the same, installer doesn't respond to anything or gives any sign of being installing anything.
After about 5 minutes, I decided to reboot the phone. I can still reboot in recovery.
I tried with phoenix rom. Pretty much the same, except if happened when I pressed backup EFS
So, is this step supposed to be extra long and without any indication about what is happening ?
Is there anything that can make the aroma installer crash like that ?
Any help welcome.
In the meantime, I will be downloading pre-rooted stock and try to flash one of those.
Edit : I am now considering the possibility that readng and external SDcard is what's causing crashs. But I do not have rom images on the phone memory, and already wiped system.
Any way to access internal memory from recovery to copy rom and try flashing purely from internal memory ?

It is a bug in recovery with Aroma. You have to use version 5.xx not 6.xx.

Just try again and again. It will work.

Most 4.3-Roms work best with Philz 5.15 as many developers suggest in their installation advice. :good:

Thank you all !
As you suggested, running philz 5.15 worked.
Sorry I missed that point when reading. Or rather, I supposed Roms maker where suggesting 5.15 recovery because it was the only one available at the time they wrote the guide, and I might as well go for the latest version.

[Solved]Nexus won't boot after ROM and other things

Hello guys, I've searched a little and didn't find any posts that could help me specifically for the Galaxy Nexus.
I've flashed my phone a long time ago and have been using Paranoid Android for probably over a year.
The problem is, my cellphone was really really slow. So I decided to try a new ROM and re-flash it. And So I did.
I've tried flashing this Full_Auto R11 kernel then the CyanogenMod 12 and finally GAPPS.
I was getting error status 6 on Clockwork mod on gapps, but eventually got around it. But it didn't install play store, I've tried manually adding but it didn't work.
So I went for another 5.0 ROM (I'm really interested in getting android 5.0). Wiped all the data, all the cache, installed everything and rebooted.
Bam! Infinite booting screen.
No, I didn't create a nandroid backup because I'm really dumb.
So, I need your help. What I want to do is to get my phone working again with a 5.0 ROM (if possible).
I can boot into ClockWork Recovery just fine, if that helps.
Thank you for the attention.

I would recommend to install latest full factory package from Google.
Then you will start with everything stock, so flash latest TWRP recovery via fastboot (CWM is no longer supported, so error 6 when installing new Lollipop Google Apps appears).
Then in TWRP, do a factory reset, wipe /cache and /system partitions.
Then you can install your Lollipop ROM (over ADB or by pushing ROM package to emulated sdcard).
After this, install latest Full_Auto kernel.
At the end, install Pico Google Apps.
You must install the Pico version, because our /system parition is too small to handle Lollipop with all Google Apps included.
This should work for you, and you will have fully working Lollipop on your Galaxy Nexus
P.S: If you intall the AOSP Lollipop ROM by @freshgiammi and you miss root access, install latest SuperSU flashable zip.

Thank you!
Thank you man!
I've ran into some troubles but managed to do everythings correctly =)

Thanks again for the reply, LamarrCZ!!
