Let me guess.. you used the darkside cache wipe. That's the only way to break CWM. Flash this.

Its TWRP 2.3.0.0. It should lock up when it says installation complete. When it does just hold down the power button and reset your phone and boot back into TWRP instead of CWM. FOR THE LAST TIME PEOPLE STOP USING WIPE SCRIPTS.

Awesome phone. Too quirky

Simply unlocking boot loader and flashing stock rooted rom nearly bricked my phone and definitely bricked wife's phone. Now my wife is on her old evo due to bricking and I don't want to go through this again on the my lg when jelly bean comes out next month. HTC was much easier and more reliable. Just my 2 cents.

Rooting and unlocking... Easy schmeezy, Flashing a zip, not a very reliable thing on our lg phones. I'm familiar with flashing roms wiping cache etc. Never worried about it on evos.

I have done this 3x on two different phones using TWRP and have not had one issue. I am not sure what happened but I promise you it was not the phone. CWM is buggy, so I see why your wife's phone is messed up. However I can only assume you have some corrupted download to explain your issues on the other phone. I have also walked a kindergarten teacher with no computer skills beyond word through this over instant message with no problems.

Tried that too although not necessary unless your flashing a custom or deodexed rom. Devs are great. Phone is unstable when it comes to flashing. That's all.

Reinstall drivers. Use tsilenzios automated lgnpst install which has drivers. Then flash stock.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app

Yea I dont think you like the phone, there is nothing quirky about this phone. Its fast looks beautiful and has awesome battery life.
I like other members have used all the tools avail to root on 6 different phones and haven't had a single issue.
If your flashing stock deodexed ZV9 over ZV8 then you absolutley going to need to wipe everything and only use twrp at the current moment as it is the most stable recovery we have.
There is never a reason to not do a full factory reset wipe cache/dalvik cache other than being lazy , and yes I understand that having to re-do all apps and contacts is a pain but if you use gmail to its potential ( all of us androiders should) then logging back into your account does most of the work and leaves no room for questions or error.

I've never had any issue at all with flashing

Can't install ROMS the with aroma

So I'm having a weird issue. If a ROM is installed via aroma, my phone will either freeze during the aroma installation, or finish the install and never boot. This is after a full wipe every time.
Any ideas as to what might be going on?
Thanks

Make sure your using a ROM for u device depending if its a international or what not and also check to see if or recovery is up to date
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium

Like he said make sure the ROM is for I747 first... Also, try switching to TWRP because it has touchscreen control Aroma can use...

Yeah I'm using an att ROM. I'm also using twrp. So I'm not sure what the issue could be!

I found that i have to factory reset in twrp as the last step of my wipe in order to get aroma installers to actually run and not freeze up. Otherwise aroma will either not load or freeze up in the middle of choosing options. YMMV.

[Q] Possible hwr problem need advice.

So here's my issue. My phone no longer allows me to flash roms from my external or internal sd card safely. What happens with every rom I flash is twofold. Data connection is always lost, and any reboot causes the phone to boot directly into download mode bypassing the odin flash page. The phone recovers from this with a simple odin back to stock. However, not being able to use non stock roms is no bueno to me.
Does this sound like some internal hwr problem? Is this an SD card issue? Would love some insite.

Which recovery are you using?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium

Using clockwork recovery current version
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app

Every ROM I flashed had some bugs and they started to multiply. I used Super Wipe and killed EVERYTHING.
I then loaded every zip onto my micro SD via my computer and put it in my phone. Flash and Go.
I went back to stock rooted MA7. The glitches were gone,
So my suggestion is to do a recovery of your first full backup or do what I did.

Okay will try super wipe tonight thanks

Or if that doesn't work use twrp.

Okay, I can't find the thanks button for you guys. THis is the solution. Don't use CWM recovery. TWRP worked wonders, and because I didn't format recovery in cwm so superwipe would probably had helped as well

Glad its working now. I have never used cwm on this phone. But twrp has been smooth sailing.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium

Use twrp on my s3, and cwm on the wife's note 2. Never had a problem with cwm. Sounds like the problem was not doing a full wipe with cwm (and not a problem with the cwm recovery itself)? But, whatever works for you.

TW rom issue!

Hi everytime I flash an tw rom on first boot everything works perfectly but as soon as I reboot I get this error phone.android.com has stopped and it keeps doing it so force closing each 15 seconds..
I tried to reflash whit a full wipe various times different tw roms but it still happens??
Also while im at it dont feel like opening another thread I have cwm6 touch the latest and during a nandroid backup it says backup of /data has failed some sort of error ....
I really want to go back to tw tired of aosp any ideas?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

Wipe everything and odin flash the root66 firmware. Start over from full stock rooted, but clean.
Run your nandroid again and write down the error. (Save log to sd).
Seems to me there is some corrupted data getting left behind. I'd format the external sd as well. But at least backup and delete the Android folder. (Contains 2 folders inside, data and obb). You can rename to Android-bak if you prefer. Do this before wiping and flashing root66.

Thing is I don't really have access to a laptop anymore and it's really hard I could use mobile odin I guess but this all started since I started using cwm touch might first try to go back to non touch cwm but the process will certainly require a reboot which again will give me force closes...

The data error I had too, but on twrp and it's a known thing all over recovery threads for a while now. The error thing happened to me a while back but a root66 fixed that, you should also get the other bug fixed with in the same process.

Mobile Odin isn't hard to use at all. I highly recommend using it in place of cwm and twrp, except for when a nandroid is needed.
As for the cwm touch, have you considered trting twrp? Personally I prefer it over cwm.

There's no reason at all to be nervous about trying a different recovery. Thousands of people have been using it w/o issue. Personally I think they are both really good, I just prefer twrp. Give it a shot, if you don't like it, install cwm.
It shouldn't do anything at all to your current rom. Recovery is on a completely different partition. And you can install w/o flashing. Use goo manager for twrp or rom manager for cwm.
