So, my rooted SGS2 have no way of booting as of this moment.
I wanted to install Cyanogenmod (stable) and downloaded it via ROM manager. After that I got told to reboot into recovery and wipe data and cache. I did that and now when I goto update Cyanogenmod is not there. ROM manager had not downloaded it to the SDcard but somewhere else, which is now gone. I have no other ROMs on the SDcard either so I am quite bummed. When I try to reboot it just keeps rebooting. Is there anything I can do? (I didn't take any backups except apps with titanium)
Thanks.
If you have recovery mode, you can mount your phone as USB storage, and copy a ROM.
You can also copy the ROM to an sd-card, I guess? Never flashed with ROM manager.
OR! You flash one with Odin

When I connect my phone with a PC it doesn't get recognized.
I'll try Odin.
Where can I find the official site for Odin?
Try this i think your problem is your selecting the "apply update from sdcard" option do not select this instead boot into recovery again and select "install zip from sdcard" then select "choose zip from sdcard" you will now have access to your sdcard just scroll down untill yoou see your Cyanogenmod zip and install it,hope that helped.

Well, the problem is that it didn't download to the SDcard, and I have no way of getting it on there.
Also there is no Install zip from sdcard.
And I cant go into clockwork recovery, only normal.
best to try odin there should be a guide and download link in the develpment thread

There is a Cyanogenmod thread, but it tells me to install using clockwork recovery. Which I am not capable of. Also I have ODIN up and running, but the cyanogenmod file isn't a .md5, .tar or .smd.
People are telling me its update.zip, too bad it doesn't ****ing work because I get errors

you cant install cm7 via odin, you can only flash samsung roms. Best to download an official rom and flash it via odin then start from scratch. But to be honest, if you havent been able to figure this out then maybe cm7 isnt the rom for you. No offense, just it can cause some issues if things arent done correctly, like whats happening now. I always thounght rom manager is to be used only when your actually on cm7.

This is really uncalled for, no need to insult people here.
Also everything would have went great if it werent for a failed download, please, get out.
Also there is no NetCom Norway download, will Telenor work?

Chill out bro, Im trying to help you here, i didnt want to cause offense, Im just saying that cm7 is quite tricky sometimes, also it pays to check all rom downloads before doing any kinds of wiping of the phone. Also having a Nandroid backup is always suggested.
As i said, Just trying to help you save your phone. And not get into this situation again, But Im sure youll figure it out.
On your SD card, go to clockworkmod folder, then download, then whatever it named cyanogen, then look in there. That is where ROM Manager downloads it.

Also, have you looked in the clockworkmod folder on your sd card, cause im pretty sure thats where the rom is downloaded.
EDIT: oh crap, too late, Just what he said above me.
There is no clockwork folder.

What rom and Kernel did you come from?
Why don't you try Litening Rom? It is quite old but I think it will install via Odin. You should not have any problems with CSC as I think Litening Rom is multi-csc.
May I ask why you want to use CyanogenMod vs Samsung-based roms? CyanogenMod is not entirely stable and I think the camera app is not anywhere near as good. You will also have problems with FM Radio and MHL.

I just like to change things up sometimes, and Cyanogenmod has a good reputation so I wanted to try it.

If youve had litening rom, then you should have odin, because thats the only way to flash litening, your gonna have to just flash something else and retry.

Why are you telling me things I already know?
First you need to "toogle signature verification" in settings and in this way turn it off.
After that you should find the update.zip in the Clockwordmod folder, and it should flash fine, and there's always USB mode
I searched and looked at other threads with people having the same problems, but none helped, and none of those threads had an OP with the Galaxy S3.
So here's the thing, I got rooted yesterday, and it was all good. Then today, I flashed the LiquidSmooth ROM and GApps with ROM Toolbox, and it went fine. Then I decided I wanted to try a different one, so I flashed to my backup, and that went fine. So I downloaded and put both the PACman ROM with GApps 4.1 from like 12/12, and RootBox with the newest 4.2 GApps onto my internal SD. However, I'm using ROM Toolbox, and when I added RootBox and the 4.2 GApps to the queue, in the right order, and told it to install them, and to wipe the devik cache (I think that's what it's called) and to delete all the data and stuff like you are supposed to, it booted into recovery, wiped the data, and then just stopped. So I had to restore to my backup, which the newest one vanished, so I had to use the day old one.
Next I booted into recovery, to manually add the files myself, however, they weren't there. The only thing that showed up was the old 4.1 12/12 GApps, and nothing else. I then tried to install PACman and the 4.1 GApps from ROM Toolbox, but it did the same thing, and I had to restore to my back up.
Can anyone maybe shed some light to why the ROM's aren't coming up?
When you looked for the ROMs in TWRP, which directory did you look in? Did you download the ROMs via ROM Toolbox?

I looked in the sdcard directory I'm pretty sure. And I just downloaded RootBox from ROM Toolbox, and tried to install it, but it did the same thing and didn't work.
My phone only had like, 35% battery when I did this, could that be a problem?

If you're going to manually flash it through recovery, Root box should be in directory /sdcard/romtoolbox/download/ or something similar since ROM toolbox creates its own folder
Also when you say it just stops, what do you see on your screen?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Well, if I start it through ROM Toolbox, it reboots into recovery, and then says like, wiping data or something similar, and then it goes back to the TWRP home screen, and then if I boot back into the system it's just stock, and then I have to restore to my backup.
And if I flash it manually, wont' it not matter where it is, or isn't it supposed to be in the root of the sdcard? Like, I can see if I was doing it through ROM Toolbox, but when I do it manually, it shouldn't matter, right?
Okay, so I just tried again, and it the last thing it says is (this isn't word for word, closest I can remember) Something cash make4ext.something or something close to that. Then it just goes to the home screen of TWRP.
Okay, so this is what just happened, I went to install LiquidSmooth again, and it said, Unable to locate zip file '/sdcard/romtoolbox/downloads/blahblahblah(doesn't show full directory)

Well actually, I wanted to try the PACman ROM next, so could I just download that and do all the same things, but with that, and instead of the 4.2 GApps, use the 12/12 4.1 GApps?
Also, I'm using 2.3.3.1, and I see that there is a newer one. Can I just flash that one over this one using ROM Toolbox?

Yea but make sure it's specifically for this device (d2tmo/sgh-t999)
The 12-12-12 gapps are 4.2 which are the correct ones to use for PAC Man as well.
DO THIS FIRST
Easiest way to update it is to download GooManager from the playstore. Once, installed, press menu button and install the open recovery script. Latest is 2.4.1.

It's still not there, I dragged and dropped it into my phone on my computer, but I don't see it. GApps is there, but not the ROM.
I'll try GooManager now, just weird that ROM Toolbox was working earlier and so was TWRP, but now TWRP can't find the ROM and ROM Toolbox can't install things. I went from thinking, wow this isn't hard at all, to, why won't this work! I'll download GooManager in just a bit, my phone is restoring to a backup.

For anyone who see's this next, just tried GooManager, also didn't work, so I'm pretty much going to give up for the rest of tonight and see what any of you have to say tomorrow. This is a bummer, but oh well, it's just weird that it was working fine and now it won't. I'm going to bed.
You putting these on intsd or extsd? You can't see them through TWRP, the phones file browser, or the computer? Unmount/remount the extsd in Storage settings.
Don't flash through an app. Flash things manually through recovery. If you always use an app to flash for you, you don't learn how to fix problems when you run into them.
You can Odin TWRP from my signature (hopefully you have Mobile ODIN), or here's a zip: http://db.tt/0SzQ0aK7
I bet all of your ROMs are still on your phone. The latest JB creates partitions in your memory. These partitions are for multiple users. Your problem is amplified by having an old recovery. You can locate all of your stuff by going to your memory and going through the folders that start with emulated/0. The latest recovery will fix this issue and you'll be able to use ROM toolbox to flash.

How do I get into the memory to find emulated/0?
Edit: I flashed CWR, and it worked just fine...but then I decided I didn't like the PACman ROM, so now I'm back to restoring back to normal...I guess next I'll try Carbon or Rootbox.
Edit2: Aww dangit, guys I'm a failure. It's stuck on the Samsung logo after you pass the tmobile one, so now I am back into recovery and reset everything and formatted and stuff, and now I'm trying to restore from the backup again...I think if I fix it, my flashing ROM days are done for awhile.
Edit 3: Ended up using Odin to get a rooted stock build on there, then downloaded ROM Toolbox, flashed TWRP, put the backup back on my phone since I have a copy of it on my computer, restored, and now we are all good.
I've been wanting to upgrade my Tmobile S3 sgh-t999 to any of the 4.2 ROM that I could find in XDA, but when I tried to flash it from recovery, it always come back with "Installation aborted".
I tried upgrading to LiquidSmooth ROM, PAC-man ROM, CM10.1 and so on. still same.
I did place the zip files on my ext SD card and I'm able to see them when in recovery mode. I do wipe data, cache, dalvik and so on on each attempt, but still same..
If I did try with any of the new ROMs that required Google Apps to be flashed, if I would try flashing the Google app zip files first, that went successfully, but not the other zip file.
I'm a newbee, so I know I might be doing something wrong, although I have done upgrades before and was successful (but on Sprint phones)
My phone right now has 4.1.1 BUILD # JRO03L T999UVDLJA. Would it help if I go to STOCK rom for the upgrade? and which stock should I go down to if necessary?
Any suggestions?
I would check the zip file is good file first. check with MD5 checker to find out Maybe bad/incomplete download?
Or did you try reflashing recovery?
If you can flash gapps, I'm assuming you just need to verify that zip you downloaded.. Again I Can't see it so just an assumption..
Or start over by flashing stock and reroot it?

Your rom may be corrupted due to a bad download or your recovery may be out of date so I recommend redownloading the ROM, making sure it does complete and intended for your specific device, and if possible check for an MD5 sum on the ROM. Also, if on TWRP recovery (recommended) you may wanna download Goomanager from the Play Store and check to see if your recovery needs updating by tapping the menu key and selecting "Install openscript recovery". See if that helps bud.

Successful install finally
I really have to thank you and all the others for their quick responses.
I did try different thinks after seeing the various responses:
..downloading MD5 checkers on both PC and phone, updating the recovery software and others..
But what I liked the most was.. I went to the goo.im site, selected the CM10.1 ROM, it expands and shows not only the MD5 # so I can verify it, but had a barcode, so I downloaded it directly to my phone and when done, i used the hash checker on the phone and the MD5 that was showing on the website matched the hash checker, so I went ahead and started the process and it did install successfully.
Noticed that Google play was not there so I also flashed the GPlay app.
It seems nice, even though I might back it up and then try another ROM to see which one I like the best.
Any suggestions on which is the most stable and improves both battery and other performances, while also giving you some cool tools or software?

If you want stability with lots of customization/features and good battery life I HIGHLY recommend trying out the ROOTBOX ROM, new updated version 3.8 that you can find in the op here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2117372
The downloads section will take you to the Rootbox site with a list of devices. Find your model and click on ”Official Releases” and it will take you straight to goo.im. If you happen to have battery issues with the default kernel you can always flash another one.

Hey guys, i decided to finally root my s3 today and install a custom OS. All was going fin until i had to install GApps. I installed the wrong version of GApss for my firmware (4.1.2) and got a constant loop of errors such as "the com.google blah blah failed to respond", upon clicking OK on this, i just got the error "Sorry, the setup wizard has crashed" OVER AND OVER again in an infinite loop, making my phone unusable.
I am now currently unsure of how to reset my phone back to factory settings because every guide to do that requires you to actually be able to use the phone, pretty silly IMO in an event like this.I can still access team win recovery.... But thats not really helping me at all.... I tried wiping everything out of pure frustration and i think i just made my situation worse. And no, im a retard and did not create any backups (MFW )
So my phones unaccessable, and wont go past the boot logo for Siyahs kernal? So it is not even showing up as a device on my computer, meaning i cant even put any zips to install though team win recovery.....
Any help is appreciated.

Put it into download mode and flash a stock tar.
But you could easily fix this by wiping everything and reflashing your rom, no need to go back to stock.

If you still have the Rom you flashed, boot into recovery, wipe system and flash your Rom just like you did before... don't flash any gapps, just boot after flashing the Rom... then use the browser that comes with the Rom and download the correct gapps, boot back into recovery and flash correct gapps, problem solved...

So how do i go about this through ODIN so i dont have to go buy an SD card...lol. That is what i tried to make clear in my first post..... there is no OS installed anymore. Nothing.
Every "rom" i have downloaded has been a .zip, not .tar.
I am very confused.
bump :S
It's late and I'm already in bed, so I won't be able to post my typical tutorial, but what you'll have to do is download a Rom to your pc, boot your phone into download mode and use adb to push the zip to your internal memory. Then you can flash the Rom zip in recovery mode. That'd be the best way if you want to avoid buying/borrowing a memory card.

First off, use TWRP instead, it's much easier to use and just works better in my opinion annnd you can themes.
I would recommend downloading it on the phone itself. It'll be located in the Download folder and ALWAYS make sure it says .zip otherwise it wont appear in recovery (for example .png files)
use an explorer app like root explorer and make sure it has .zip at the end of the name. :good:

Yes it actually can be an issue. Some gapps have caused problems before especially when using 4.3 gapps for 4.4.2 ROMS.

I downloaded gapps for 4.4.2. went back to my backup i made before flashing the rom for the first time put the new gapps on reflashed the rom and then the gapps. When i booted for the first time i get a constant pop up that says setup wizard has stopped blamed the split screen and it just keeps popping up when i click ok. Any ideas?
Location is rom related not gapps. So obvious question: did you wipe everything? As for gapps just use any 4.4 gapps (pa preferred).

Yes i did wipe everything prior to flashing the ROM. Also flashed pa gapps and experienced the "set up wizard has stopped blame the split screen" pop up. Not sure what else to try
