[Q] Help? I get this when flashing a new rom "Unfortunately setup wizard has stopped"

[Q] Help? I get this when flashing a new rom "Unfortunately setup wizard has stopped"
I have a Galaxy s3 and I have twrp installed. And so far I have tried flashing 4 or 5 different custom roms and every time I end up getting this message "Unfortunately setup wizard has stopped" and then some message about ".com.goolge gpapps has stopped".
I am flashing the rom's and gapps from trwp. And I get the success comment after both the rom and gapps flash. I then restart/reboot and the new rom's custom boot animation comes up, like with cm10 the blue clockwork logo spins, and then after 10 or 20 seconds I get the two error messages and thats its. And when I flashed liquid smooth, I got the Liquid Smooth boot animation.as well and the the two messages. I eventually get my phone tuned off and I get it booted back into twrp and restore my backup to my stock rooted setup which is what I currently have running and so far is the only thing I can get to boot up. I have tried cm10 nightlies from the past week and cm10 stable and liquidsmooth, and a couple others. I downloaded several from goo.manager but i most recently tried a cm nightly i downloaded directly from clockworks site.
Any Idea's. I have seen a couple other threads on other devices with a similar problem but most seemed to have the wrong gapps, and I am using the most current gapps, i even downloaded it from multiple sources to double check.
Does the fact my phone is android 4,1,1 and most these roms are 4.1.2 or newer matter? And if so what is the fix?

Are you wiping system and data before flashing? This is most likely your issue.

Ok what you have to try is this.
Boot into recovery and wipe system and data (removes settings so you will need to reset up everything) They wipe delvic cache and normal cache, then flash the rom and the proper gapps for the rom.

On the wipe screen in twrp there is a system option but for data it says format data? Do I need to wipe "system" and "format data"? or does the wipe system option take care of what i need to do? If I need to also select "format data" which do I do first ? format data or system wipe? will i need to wipe cache or dalvik as well, or will those be wiped in the system wipe? Sorry for all the ?'s I am a real noob at all of this.

No wiping the system doesnt format the data partition. Wipe system then format the data and then wipe the caches and then flash the rom.

Sounds like your flashing the wrong version of gapps.

Most rom threads have a download link to the gapps that work with the version of android that specific rom is on. Look in the rom thread for the one you're currently running. There are different gapps for each android version (4, 4.1, 4.2)

I have that same problem too
I was trying to install new roms for my phone i tried liquid smooth and avatar and CM 10. I also tried install a new kernel and also different recoveries but nothing seems to work. I never "dirty" flashed and i use the right gapps. Someone please help me here i hate stock roms!

No matter what Gapps version I've tried I still get this same error. This occurred after trying out the Dark ROM modeled after CM11, but now no matter what ROM I try, this error still occurs. The only time I was ever able to get passed it was using a backup, but that has mysteriously gone AWOL. With that in mind, has anyone actually figured this out? Is there anyone with any USEFUL input? So far all I'm seeing is a bunch of suggestions that don't work.

Is your recovery updated to the latest version? Do the roms you are trying support the recovery you are using?

I use the latest CWM. I'm a creature of habit. The first Samsung I ever put a custom ROM on was done with CWM, so I stick with it. I finally got it to go, but it constantly froze, tried to reset, stuck with the same issue. Never used TWRP, so if someone could actually point me in the right direction, that'd actually be helpful.

I have no idea how to use TWRP...it only lists a .img file and no instructions on how to use it. zip files can be used from the bootloader or recovery. WTF am I supposed to do with an .img file. And it can't be to use the terminal emulator because to do that I would have to be able to get passed the Setup Wizard...which is the issue.

I finally figured it out with CWM. Thankfully. The phone would've went flying otherwise.
If anyone else stumbles upon this thread (so they can find the answer for CWM also), you have to format the device from the CWM Recovery to get rid of the crap that is blocking it. I did the following:
Once in CWM Recovery, Remove your SD card to avoid formatting it by accident.
Use the Volume Key to scroll to "mounts and storage".
Format all existing options (this is why the SD needed to be removed); this will blank out the phone's system which was causing the Setup issue to begin with.
Put your SD card with the ROM to be installed back into the phone.
Follow the guide as normal after this (install ROM, then reboot, then KK_gapps, then wipe the two caches, then reboot.)

Cannot boot S4 after custom ROM flashes

My T-Mobile Galaxy s4 M919 will not boot after any custom ROM flashes. I tried 4 different ROMs with success messages. As soon as I reboot my phone after the ROM flash, it's stuck at the Samsung Galaxy S4 logo and would not enter the "phone desktop". I can easily enter download mode and recovery mode without any issue.
Background: I rooted with Odin successfully. (Used both CWM and OUDHS with the same no-boot results after flashing any custom ROMs). I can restore back to stock and phone boot up fine but tried root again and then with custom ROM and it would not boot. Any help would appreciate it.

After flashing a rom, go into recovery, and erase stuff. Like cache and dalvik cache. Possibly even data

I did that after each ROM flash. 1. Wipe data/factory reset, 2. wipe cache part, 3. wipe dalvik cache. Did not fix the problem. No good. Please clarify "possibly even data". I am not sure which wipe is that.

using CWM:
*wipe data/factory reset
*wipe cache
*wipe, dalvik cache
*wipe system
*wipe sdcard (only if you have the ROMs you plan on flashing on your external sdcard, this will erase internal sd)
now flash your ROM of choice. reboot (will take 1-2min on first boot)
use cwm touch. what ROMs have you tried so far?

I am thinking you are flashing something not specific to the TMo S4, so your not getting the right kernel installed. Try installing a TMo specific kernel immediately after flashing a rom and see what happens.

Yeah, what ROMs have you tried already? Have you tried TWRP 2.5 recovery?
Sometimes it'll take up to 10 minutes to boot up (I haven't experienced this yet with the GS4, but I have with other phones). How long did you wait before determining it was just stuck?

I switched to PhilZ Touch Recovery a couple of weeks ago and have not had Any issues as I did before.
TWRP 2.5.0.2 was issue free for months, until I started flashing ROMs with Aroma.
Nothing but issues re Samsung splash screen freezes, different solutions working sometimes and sometimes not, having to ODIN back to stock on many occasions, having to wipe INTERNAL SD on many occasions, etc., etc.
PhilZ was the solution.
This is coming from a hard core TWRP guy......

Okay let's start over from scratch.
First off can you restore the stock ROM using your nandroid backup?
Second, I don't think you are properly wiping everything prior to flashing the new ROM. You need to wipe system, data, dalvik, and cache in the CWM wipe menu prior to flashing the new ROM.
Wipe all 4 things. Wiping any less than all 4 things will cause the problems you are experiencing.
Once you've done that, then flash the ROM.zip and reboot and it should work just fine.

yes, format system in mounts/storage.

When I was flashing ROMs w/Aroma using TWRP 2.5.0.2, I would sometimes get Samsung boot screen freezes. The only way I could resolve this was by wiping Internal SD, in addition to the other wipes mentioned, and flashing the ROM again.

find stock kernel, flash the roms you want and flash the stock kernel after and see if you boot

ODIN Samsung Stock Firmware.
Boot.
ODIN Custom Recovery.
(I use PhilZ Touch Recovery. Flashes ROMs flawlessly )
Boot.
Flash custom ROM afterwards.
If ROM doesn't have Root, then Root with CF-AUTO-ROOT by Chainfire via ODIN prior to installing Custom Recovery.
Then flash custom ROM.

I did as you stated. I love Philz Touch recovery UI. Very nice. Unfortunately, did not work as well. It stated successfully. I tried 2 rom, Infamous S4 v.2.5 and also the VirginROM v2.3.1. Both stated successful flashed but would not boot into the phone desktop. Stuck for over 10 minutes on black and white "Samsung Galaxy S4" logo.
I will send you a nice Starbucks gift card if anyone can fix this problem.

I have no idea why it ain't working for you.
On the plus side, I don't know everything
If you ODINd Stock.
ODINd Recovery.
Did a Md5 Checksum match between the ROM file and your Download.
Wiped Internal SD.
Flashed the ROM......
and you're still having issues.......
I'm at a loss....
Try again is my only suggestion, and insure the steps taken are correct, including ODINing the proper files for your device.
Check & Double check
Including making sure you have a good usb cable, which sometimes can work and sometimes not....

If you haven't, try flashing from internal sd card. Maybe remove th external sd card just in case.

[Q] wiping cache and dalvik caused boot loop?

my s2 was being glitchy so i went into recovery to wipe cache and dalvik and then rebooted from recovery. i waited and then it just boooot loops and shuts off. im currently using cwm recovery 5.2.7 or something like that. will i be able to flash the newer roms like CyanogenMod 10.2 with that current recovery? and why did the wiping of cache and dalvik booot looped my phone? i thought wiping those just makes my phone less glitchy

You probably had some other issues to cause phone to be glitchy in the first place.
When flashing a new ROM it's recommend you wipe data, system cache and dalvik cache.(cache and dalvik can be wipe after the ROM install before rebooting)

No, you are going to have to update to either the newest TWRP or CWM to flash 4.3 ROMs.

I'm gonna jump in and hope this isn't a hijack. I had a similar experience but I wanted to update to the latest TWRP so I could flash a 4.3 ROM (Simbean) .
I Odined in and flashed TWRP 2.6.3. Was able to flash the Slimbean ROM but on first reboot I can't make it past the Samsung screen.
I can get back into TWRP but everything fails. - typical process. "Fix permissions- Success", then "Full wipe - Success" then "Fix permissions (cause I'm trying anything at this point)- Failed"
In TWRP Restoring backups "Failed" Flashing new image "Failed" In between I've tried Erasing everything but the MicroSD card and starting fresh but Noting will install.
I've reflashed TWRP through ODIN but same issue. A couple of times I've got a restore to work but if the phone sleeps it won't wake up. I can only get back to TWRP.
What is the Nuclear Option? Or have I done that already? I've been flashing for years. I've never seen anything like this.
Help.

[Q] Every rom tried gets stuck on reboot.

Ok, I've tried the Pac man, Hellkat, Hellfire, and the latest Cyangenmod 11. All of them seem to install ok. Doing a full wipe before hand. All of them seem to be working ok but every one of them will not reboot. At first the bootloader FireFireFire version 1.4 seems to take it's time but then the rom's boot animation finally comes up and that's where it sits. I've tried going back into recovery and wiping data, wiping caches. Wiping data does let it reboot but then I can't get it to boot again after that.

which twrp version? should be 2.6.3.0 or newer

Try flashing the full stock firmware from sammobile; then boot into the stock recovery and do a full factory reset. If that doesn't work, then you may want to install a custom recovery and re-format (not wipe, but actually format) the data partition.

Ok will try that. After wiping the data partition what should i do?

I would boot into the complete stock system and see if you have any problems. If everything works fine when completely stock, then you can install a custom recovery and try some other roms.

Ok cool i really hope this works bud because I've tried everything even used twerp recovery to advance format system, data, cache and internal storage

Even a completely stock system, I'm having problems. I've tried wiping everything (cache, dalvik ,data/factory reset ) then flashing back to the stock firmware using Odin3 v3.09, and I'm still getting errors and random rebooting.
Has my t210 bit the dust?

Seems like a lot of people are having trouble with the new updates. I would try to find an older version of the stock rom and load it thru Odin 3.7 and see if you still have the same problems.

Same thing I'm thinking but I still have hope

Did any of you all clear your cache and dalvik-cache as part of the flashing process?
The 4.4 ROM is an update to the stock 4.2. If you use a custom ROM, you will probably need to reflash stock 4.2 in order to flash 4.4.

But this tab never had 4.2 only 4.1 and I did a complete wipe before flashing anything

Here's what I would do then:
Reflash 4.1, then try 4.4. If that doesn't work, flash all three consecutively. Gotta test around to find out what works.
