[Q] ARHD 5.2.2 Hang what am I doing wrong?

I've been running ARHD 5.1.7 and its been stable OK.
Been trying to upgrade to 5.2.2 but for some reason it either gets stuck at the boot screen or else manages to get pass then but then will hang the moment I try to do anything.
Followed instructions to use Super Wipe per the ARHD pg. And also tried to factory reset first before installing. Same result.
Can anyone help me please? Seems to work for everyone else.
Thank you.

Did u check the md5 sum and make sure ur download is good first? I assume that u r rooted correctly right? Make sure u r not trying to flash it through cwm. And make sure ur battery isn't low or keep it plugged in on charge only
U r not rebooting after super wipe r u? As soon as wipe is done it tells u to install Rom
Md5 checked when downloading the file. Matched.
Should be rooted correctly since i've been been upgrading the ARHD a few version till i got to 5.1.7.
I used recovery and selected installed the zip from SD card --that is correct? not flashing it thru cwm like u said i should not be doing right?
I have tried with reboot and not rebooting after super wipe. Same result.
Any other possiblity?
Thanks.

I would trash that download and download a new zip then try it again. Sounds like u r doing it right
hahaha if anything i'm persistent. I actually redownloaded. I tried with the 5.2.0 before and had the same issue so thought maybe i'd have better luck with the 5.2.2
It seems that i'm having trouble getting to 5.2.x
maybe just wait for 5.2.3 but it seems that i'm having problems getting to teh 5.2.x version
Thank you Jess086

now i'm lost. my knowledge doesn't go that far. I'm using CWM recovery i think. and to get to 5.1.7 had to do the ext4...i THINK.

Thanks so much.

Don't worry about the old one. Get the new ext4 recovery out of the dev. Section. Will be one of the top threads. Flash it. Then boot to recovery and go to where it says wipe and wipe the catch, dev catch, and the factory wipe u already did. Then flash the wipe download for ext4 when its done it will say u can now flash the arhd Rom so go to install fro SD card and fond Rom zip and flash it then reboot. U will be good hopefully. Keep me posted
Do you mean this one? Is it different from the Super Wipe from the ARHD pg?
ClockWorkMod 2 & 3 - ( Edify Script )
FULL_WIPE_1.5_EXT4_
This patch can be applied prior to flashing the ROM, please note, this zip will wipe your device and format all partitions to EXT4.
jess086. i finally got enought posts to post in the aRHD thread and the solution it to flash the 1ghz patch after flashing the ROM and that seems to have done the job.
Thank you.

[Q] how can I remove twrp and replace with cmd

I currently rooted my samsung note 2 n7100 using samsung note 2 toolkit, now i installed twrp recovery. now i want to swap it to cmd? can anyone shed some info about this.
Another thing does nandroid backup backup my stock current rom? so in the future i can return to being stock? many thanks
You shoukd be able to just install cwm through rom manager. And I believe you can backup stock after rooting and installing recovery. You can then restore the backup and use the toolbox to unroot.
sent via nexus 7 in boss made @ quad core 1.7ghz
Rom Manager is not compatible with the Note 2 yet afaik, just flash CWM 6.1.0.5 with TWRP, https://hotfile.com/dl/176068447/563747c/cwm6-recovery-n7100-121014.zip.htmland and you`re fine.

What the hell is cmd? I think you mean CWM, and you flash it the same way you flash anything. You managed to flash TWRP, after all.

sorry about that then its CWM,
I used samsung note 2 toolkit to root and install CWM, can I use that again even though im not going to root my device? and just flash CWM? thanks
You can use the Toolkit again yes.
Out of interest, why do you want a custom recovery but no root?

Everything works the same with twrp as cwm. You still wipe and flash the exact same way. It may just be my personal preference but I find twrp much "more effective' I guess is how I woukd describe it. Seems to give me cleaner wipes and better flashes. Same with backup and restoring nandroids. Twrp just seems to give me cleaner smoother running roms after flash.

[Q] Problem with ALL TW ROMs (Kernels?)

Hey there I know this might sound like a complete newbie question but I have honestly run out of ideas so posting here for some idea.
I have at this point decided my phone must be a lemon.
1. Day 1 received phone installed CM ran it for multiple days no problems.
2. After a few days of this wanted to try Wanams i9505 rom so wiped everything including data in recovery rebooted recovery and installed. First boot was fine setup was fine got it working but then after my first try to reboot it ot stuck at SAMSUNG GALAXY S4 second time it made it to the boot animation but crashed half way through it and reset.
3. Thinking my phone wasn't playing nice with the kernel in Wanam's rom (Adam I believe) I flashed his ROM then immediately flashed the stock m919 kernel after. Same results after first boot.
4. Then tried restoring my nandroid of complete stock. Same problem.
5. Wiped all (except SD) and restored nandroid of stock. Problem gone.
6. After my next backup of stock problem is back.
7. If I do a full odin to stock it works and reboots for days no problem.
I am using TWRP for TMO, have a m919v (Canadian Variant)
Any advice at all would be great, I could easily have overlooked something obvious. Thanks!
Should I not be wiping preload and EFS when doing a "full wipe" ?
No, if you are just flashing a rom from another carrier, which you are, wipe as usual, flash the rom, and before you boot use the tmo canadian kernel, it will boot.

Hey thanks for the response yes it does boot once, but after that it seems to not. I have even tried re-flashing the stock m919 kernel after flashing the target rom fails booting and that doesnt seem to fix it.

Good point they are not specifically for V variant but it is my understanding that they should be identical. I have the odin flash for it so what I will do is use that to be 100% sure thanks for the tip.

You flashed Odin then made backup of stock right? And it still had an issue?
Seems like a recovery issue. Try CWM recovery instead

[Q] I am destroying my tablet - Can some one help me ?

Hello. I tried to root my Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 - T210 and i think i really screwed it up. I did not make any backup, that was mistake NR one.
I got clock work mode up and running but i cant install any ROM, have tried The original Firmware, RocketTab, Cyanogenmod and cant pass the installation process and i think i cant turn back cause i got no backup and no way to install it again.
When i run any of these ROMs i get this error :
format() expects 4 args, got 5

No matter what i do, im a a bit scared know cause i think i am really close on destroying the tablet.
Can any one help me ? give me tips ?
CWM that i am running is : T210_CWM.6.0.4.7.recovery that i downloaded frome the XDA forum.
A,
panic solves nothing.
https://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/lt02wifi/
when in doubt choose the most recent. zip or tar for odin.
for a rom i suggest svelte to get things straight.
then go from there.

great rom, minimal issues. philz advanced recovery is cwm with a good touch interface and more and very helpful options.
So yes, switch. All else is almost always solveable as long as your recovery is solid.

To be 100% sure when people say recovery they mean the programs like CWM or TeamWin and so on right ?
Is it bad for the device to change often the recovery software ? cause i have done that couple of times, started with TeamWin and later on ended up with CWM.
But the thing is that the problem is the installation process, it does not matter what ROM i use i get still the same error.
And for the Philz Touch could you copy the name of the link that i should download, they all look the same and way more links that i am used to.

The reason you can't install any rom is because you do not have the latest version of CWM installed. You should always install the newest version when you install any recovery.
The newer roms are using an updater-script that will not work on CWM 6.0.4.7. Install an updated recovery and then install the rom that you want.

To answer your question no yes maybe. Travel around through XDA and read/learn and you will understand.
as for philz i would try this one https://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/lt02wifi/philz_touch_6.44.9-lt02wifi.zip
in general find a recovery that works for you and stick with it until an update is actually called for.

If I were you, I would unroot and return to stock using ODIN first before I try anything else. If you need instructions, Google "unroot and return to stock using ODIN".

Without a backup, you will lose your data and files. But you can restore, since you can download the firmware from SamMobile.

6.0.4.9 is the latest.

Choose the one with "flashable" in the name and then flash it using your current CWM recovery; then reboot recovery.

good to hear you got it sorted. CM just isn't happening yet. just watch the forum like a hawk like everyone else is...:cyclops:
If your worried about destroying your tab you prolly shouldn't have come to mod it.I know sounds like a douche bag thing to say but even putting on the flash or roms that go with the tab can destroy your tab if done improperly or even if they glitched while flash which does happen or even worse power outage when flashing.

Nono it is okey to say something like this, but the thing is i like to learn this stuff, took me about 3 days to learn how to flash a BIOS on a computer but when i got the hang of it i learned it.
I am scared of destroying the tablet but how else would i learn ? cause reading does not always help But i got it back up again. And i knew when to ask for help.
But the RocketTab looks to work well at least for know, but would love CM mod couse i have it on my S4 and when and with the RocketTab i only get android version 4.1.2

Thank you for the fast help, the tablet is up and running, gone skip for know trying to use CM mod.
