Hello all just bought a new Samsung Galaxy SII from craigslist already rooted with 4.0.3 Jedi Mind Trick. After reading for what seems 4-5 hours i have been trying to put together how to properly without bricking switching it to 10.0.0 Stable as i use to use Cyanogenmod 2-3 years ago on my devices. Seem alot of things have changed and there is a cluster**** of stuff out there now. If you could direct me to a how to or show me how to do it i would greatly appreciate it!
Thanks all!
Assuming you have nothing personal to back up that you can't just download from google play or your google account again: download cyanogen 10 and it's gapps. reboot into recovery mode. factory reset, wipe data, wipe system, wipe cache, wipe dalvik. pick the install zip from sd card or so option, browse to cyanogen, then install gapps the same way. wipe dalvik again and reboot.
I was thinking of doing this myself JMT to CM10. I didn't think there was anything special to do same as flashing from any other ROM to CM10. If there is a special requirement I would think they'd post in in with the ROM post information.

so I attempted to install it and got stuck on the boot logo for 20 minutes or so. So I bricked it lol... Anyway I just flashed it with Odin to 2.3.5 but the link to download file for root capabilities is broken. What can i do? Do i have to go to ics first before i reattempt to go to 10.0.0?

honestly - i backed up everything to my external and then formatted the internal when i went from TW to AOSP for the last time. well worth it. nice folder clean up and then you can just manually take all the stuff you want back.
and you should just be able to odin on cwm or twrp - then flash the rom of your choice.

If you get stuck at the boot logo, it's called a soft brick. You don't have to use ODIN or go back to ICS. Just make sure the ROM zip you downloaded isn't corrupt (check the size/m5d if possible), wipe everything, and reboot into recovery to try installing again.

You won't fail. Follow the guidelines step by step. Print it out, make notes. Anything. Read. The step by step guide works... that'll get you with cwm. Then, you can flash the zip you will put on your phone... either a SU zip or just a rooted ROM. Follow flashing instructions.
Just realized - you'll be way better off if, once you have cwm on, just format the internal ONCE YOU HAVE A ROM ON AN EXTERNAL SD CARD. then flash CM10. THEN you'll have a fresh AOSP install.

Had 2.3.5 - rooted via odin and have recovery 5.2.6 - did everything in proper order and wiping properly.
what am i skipping here? Still spinning taunting me, wish there was a way it would tell me if i did something wrong.

Update your recovery to twrp or cwm 6+ and don't use dark side scripts
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using Tapatalk 2
Please excuse my harshness but this is not as hard as many make it seem. I would say if it takes you more than a couple attempts maybe it is just not for you. I only say this because I would hate to see you mess up your phone. Now if you think a bootloop is a brick then we need to do things at a slower pace with you.
If you already have your phone rooted then
1.download goomanager from the playstore and then
2.open it up and allow it to grant permission from CM
3.hit menu button while goo manager is open
4.click on install OpenRecoveryScript
5.let it do its thing
6.reboot into your new TWRP recovery
7.Wipe/Data Factory Reset
8.Flash Rom
9.Flash Gapps
10.Reboot
You can throw in a backup of files somewhere in there if you like.... Your choice

I had a bootloop when using CWM v6.0.1.5. So a friend of mine told me he had success with CWM v6.0.1.5 Touch. So I switched to the touch recovery and... SUCCESS.
Here's the link to CWM touch and non-touch:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1893464
A boot loop could mean a bad download or bad flash but it is most definitely NOT a bricked device. All you needed to do was get a fresh download and move it to your SD card by mounting it in recovery. Then, wipe EVERYTHING but the SD. EVERYTHING. Then flash the ROM, Gapps and whatever radio. I go from CM to AOKP to other random TW roms all the time and never have issues.
The 2 best recoveries are twrp or my favorite because I'm used to it is cwm 6.0.1.5. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1844637
Also if your phone boot loops don't freak out' just either reboot to see if that works out first and if not reboot into recovery. Also with these new recoveries do not use dark side scripts.
Factory reset
Format system
Format cache
Format data
Flash ROM
Flash gapps
Reboot and enjoy

Sorry for the necro on the thread, but I didn't want it to be stated I didn't look around some either.
I am going from JMT to CM and want to make sure it's as seamless as possible. I use CWM and usually usually use darkside complete wipes, but I read in a previous post not to use darkside. Is there a reason for this? I can't see why this wouldn't work as it's just a wipe.
Also I use Titanium Backup. Is it possible to backup my apps and data and restore them since its not TW any longer? I want to be able to restore as much of my data as possible and make sure I don't lose it.
P.S. - If thread necroing is not appreciated, I apologize.
Prior to receiving my GS2 from T-Mobile I did research on how to Root, Flash ROMs, you know, all the cool things Android phones can do, and I mean A LOT of research. When I finally did recieve my phone the first thing I did was root it, which worked flawlessly - at which point I thought "Hey, this isn't so hard I won't have any problems at all!" OH BOY WAS I WRONG.
Here's where everything went wrong: The first ROM I thought I'd install was AOKP Milestone and then I'd try CM10, so I put both .Zip files into my SD card. I backed up to Titanium Backup and to my External SD card through Clockwork mod then I installed AOKP Milestone and made it to the home screen with some force close messages. It was running, but didn't look very stable to me and the whole "Swagger" thing turned me off to it. I went back to Clockwork Mod and the website that I got CM10 from also told me to run DarkSide Wipe before installing the ROM so I did just that. Ran Darkside, installed CM10, then installed Gapps. I then rebooted my phone and CM10 started to load up, but after 10 minutes of just the splash screen I assumed it was stuck in a bootloop. I then restored the backup I made before installing Milestone, but I remember there being an error and it not being successful. It was at this point that Clockwork Mod started being buggy. Starting to panic, I tried a factory reset through CWM. It formatted data no problem, but it would hang at "formatting /cache" until I turned off the phone. So I panicked some more and formatted system, emmc, data. (Not a smart idea, I know.) but it would hang when I tried formatting the cache again. And its been stuck in a bootloop ever since.
I read somewhere that you could use Odin to revert your phone to make it completely stock by flashing a kernel. I thought my prayers were answered! I was finally going to just start over and forget this ever happened! No. My computer won't even recognize my phone is plugged into it. (Yes, I have all drivers up to date. Yes, I am using Samsung Micro USB, and Yes, I have Keis installed.) Since my computer won't recognize my Phone, Odin won't.
* I can access Clockwork mod, and Download mode, but my computer won't recognize my phone when plugged in.*
I know it's a lot to read but I have tried so many things I'm just so discouraged about this whole thing. I know I'm a noob so please explain your answers like I'm 5. I don't understand most Android modding slang.
Thank you.

If you have an external sd card, load a rom on to it from your computer and then get your phone into recovery mode and choose to install from external sd card. See if that works. Also sometimes a cache wipe can take a while. Also don't panic and start doing things you know nothing about. I would recommend and ice based rom then figure how to get twrp recovery then move on to cm10. . If you can get past this, I can help you. Pm me

Ok, I will see if I can get an ICS ROM onto my Micro SD. If it works I will PM you. Thank you.
I'm still open to more suggestions!
EDIT: The funny thing is, when my phone is in CWM my computer recognizes it and I can mount USB storage, but won't recognize it while in download mode. Weird.
don't use superwipe with cwm 6+. it will break your recovery and cause a bootloop.
also it seems that a lot of people have problems with cwm 6.0.1.9 and it seems like it doesn't wipe properly so i would recommend latest twrp or sk8terwitskil's cwm. i think that's what happened with aokp and why you were having so much fcs.

Battery pull didn't work either. :/
UPDATE: I've tried installing 3 different ICS ROMs from the external SD via CWM but they all seem to freeze 3/4 through the install. After about 5 mins of being frozen the phone reboots and the bootloop just comes back. Once again I have nowhere to go. I'm lost.
If anyone has more suggestions, please share!
i don't know where i read it but i just remember now that someone said kies and odin are incompatible. so maybe that's why odin couldn't detect your phone? kies might have been running in the bg.
so i would uninstall kies and driver. restart comp. then download and install just the driver from samsung website. then put the phone into download mode and connect to pc. see if that will help.
if not, i don't know lol. usually i would suggest flashing to twrp but i don't know how well that's gonna go over a broken recovery.
I would suggest flashing TWRP recovery 2.3.3 and try and flash a ROM again after....CWM has gone downhill in my opinion.
Here is the TWRP thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1768742
Or download GooManager app and install that way
And do not use any cache wipe scripts with this.

You need to have computer install odin driver while you're in download mode before odin works. Try this wipe cache, wipe dalvik, wipe data/factory reset, format system, format cache and format system. Then flash new rom in recovery.

RESOLVED!
Funny thing is, I just plugged in my phone to a computer running Windows 7 and Odin recognized it! I guess my XP at home doesn't like phones. From there I flashed a stock kernel and VIOLA! Phone is out of the box new! Now I'm very weary about installing a ROM again.. I don't want to go through that ever again. Maybe i'll do some more research before I molest the software's insides.
Thank you everyone for your contributions!
Try recovery from sk8erwitskil, it's the only one that seems to work w/ my Hercules. I had similar problems to what you were experiencing and it's the only recovery that worked for some reason. I am on a GNex now so take that for what it's worth. I'll pull out the Herc. tonight when I get home to update to the CM10 latest nightly, it's been a while.
THIS IS FOR XT907
I decided to start this post for those who encounter issues while flashing. Whether you had trouble flashing your first custom ROM from stock, whether you even had issues trying to get root, whether you had trouble flashing the next custom ROM/update from an existing custom ROM, or whether you have had the Safestrap splashscreen but the softkeys weren't working (like me)..
It's a painful task to RSD everytime you want to make a small change, and it's an even more painful quest to search for every unique case we fall into.. so I would be hoping that everyone could give their input, and maybe help compile a How-to right here, from obtaining root, to installing safestrap and all the way up to flashing a custom ROM. Also following that up with more advanced troubleshooting ie my issues with the safestrap softkeys not working..
I'm going to post up what most other people have posted up, general instructions on how to install a custom ROM.. and also a few handy tips.. in case you ever get bricked.
STUFF YOU WILL NEED:
BACKUP OF JELLYBEAN 4.1.1 FIRMWARE FOR THE M
TO FLASH FIRMWARE INCASE YOU GET BRICKED: RSD LITE (google this and get the latest version of RSD LITE - it's late and I'm actually flashing an UPDATE for Eclipse the long way cuz my softkeys for Safestrap aren't working)
TO OBTAIN ROOT: MOTOFAIL2GO
TO FLASH ROMS: SAFESTRAP RECOVERY
and ROMs of your choice from any of the ROM threads
STEPS courtesy of AndroidJunkies' instructions:
You need to be rooted and have a custom recovery installed on your RAZR M to be able to install this ROM.
You can use this guide to Root your RAZR M and Install Safestrap Recovery
Get the latest version of THE ROM OF YOUR CHOICE from xda forums or other forums of your choice.
Connect your Droid RAZR M to the computer and transfer the downloaded ROM zip file from Step 2 to the SDcard on your device
Now disconnect your RAZR M We need to boot to Safestrap recovery now, To do that open the Safestrap app on your device and use the Reboot to recovery option
At the splash screen, choose recovery to boot into Safestrap. You need to select the option within 10 seconds, to avoid booting back in to the normal OS
The top of the screen should show “Safestrap System is: Disabled” (that is what we want right now and is also referred to as “Non-Safe mode”).
Make a back up of your existing ROM within recovery, Wait for the backup to complete, it might take a few minutes.
In the Safestrap recovery menu, navigate to and enter the Safe Boot Menu and Select Enable Safe System. Wait a few minutes for Safestrap to finish backing up the necessary system files.
Now from the recovery main menu, scroll to Wipe Data /Factory Reset and select it. Confirm wipe in the next step. This could take a few minutes, so don’t panic and be patient.
Once that’s done, select Wipe Cache from the main menu, and confirm it in the next step.
Next, select Mounts and Storage from the main menu and then select Format /system. Don’t worry. Your primary system partition will be untouched.
Once the format is complete go back to the main menu and select Advanced, and from the next screen select Wipe Dalvik Cache
Go back to the main menu and Select Install zip from SD card. Select the Eclipse RAZR M ROM zip file you had transferred to the SDcard in Step 3, and confirm the flash on the next screen
Wait for the ROM flash to complete. Once finished, reboot your device.
For best results, leave the device alone for at least 5-10 minutes after the first boot and let the new ROM settle in. While this may seem unnecessary, it usually prevents issues like inexplicable force closes later
AT ANY POINT IN TIME you get stuck - here are a few handy tips..
TO POWER DOWN: HOLD Power + Vol Up + Vol Down
TO ENTER BOOTLOADER (to choose boot in recovery, fastboot etc) : when phone is off, HOLD Power + Vol Up + Vol Down
TO RESET: HOLD Power + Vol Down
If you ever get bricked, try to enter bootloader, select recovery (THIS IS THE STOCK RECOVERY and when you see the dead android, with the red exclamation mark. The ONLY thing you can press to obtain a response is something like hold Vol Up + Vol Down (what I did was that and when it didn't work I just spammed..)
it's late and it'll take awhile for me to finish this up - but guys please feel free to contribute, I'll update the OP - I'm sure many will benefit from this. As for me I've one last question
honestly, was there an easy way/quick fix when my Safestrap was enabled and I couldn't press the softkeys? I read somewhere that I could disable safestrap.. did not know how to and ended up uninstalling recovery..
then got into a bootloop - so I RSD'd and RE FLASHED everything. painful yeah - this thread is dedicated to those who do not want to go through the trouble I did..
SPECIAL THANKS to

thanks for putting this together. wondering if we have to put the ROM on the "/sdcard" vs. the "mnt/external1" folder. I believe the system (at least on my device) has the "/sdcard" actually stored in the phone's memory, and not the memory card. this is the problem I ran into when using safestrap last time (ran low on memory).

safestrap installed but not usable
I have a system version 98.12.4 on my razr m. I've used motofail2go to get root. Installed safestrap with es file explorer.
When opening app safestrap I have(recovery state: installed) and (safe system: not active). There are no boot options, just install or uninstall and the version 3.12
I power down as normal and boot holding vol+- getting to the boot selection menu 10.9b.
Pressing vol- to select BP TOOLS vol+ to enter and I end up with this unusually formatted form of safestrap which is unusable.
I've even flashed back to stock and gone through the process again to the same result.
Any ideas?

Strange I know, inside the wrongly formatted recovery it says 3.11. Inside of the app it has a version # 3.12. I downloaded from the link at the top of this page.
---------- Post added at 12:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:00 PM ----------
Alright so I found a new download specific to our device. The download in the original post was not working for me - not sure if it's because it was for the razr hd.
Inside safestrap it still gives v3.11 but everything seems to be normal so far for me.
safestrap razr m download:
(apparently not enough posts to put up a link) but if you visit the Hash-of-Codes website there is a download specific for the m.
Previously used this site to root and put CM10 on my old X2, which has since passed on to the next world due to one too many times being dropped....
Trying this process now, hoping it all works out. I'm going to try the energy ROM on for size.
Can't boot to Eclipse?
Thanks to the OP for providing his guide. It was very helpful, and has gotten my 99% of the way there....
I have a Razr M that I recently rooted. I installed the newest version of safestrap (3.12) from HOC's website. I'm successfully able to enter recovery, create a partition, format/wipe it, and install Eclipse.
Everything seems fine at first when I reboot; I get the safestrap screen showing that it's activated. Once I continue the boot process, though, the phone just seems to freeze on a blank screen, without ever displaying a splash screen. I've waited over 5 minutes with nothing happening (several times I've tried this). Using the PWR+VolUp+VolDown button combo I'm able to restart the phone and enter recovery. Stock ROM still works.
I've tried wiping caches, to no avail. Any ideas out there?
Good stuff
This is very helpful. I wish I had known all of this stuff before I started on my M. something I have done that I am not sure will work on all ROMs, so be careful.
For the Eclipse rom, I installed it on a new rom slot, then backed it up. I then restored the Eclipse backup over the stock slot. I would recommend backing up stock first.
P.S. I am not sure if this will work with every rom. Only tried with Eclipse!

Sounds like a bad download and/or flash. I would wipe ROM slot 1, re-format and re-install a newly downloaded version of Eclipse.
So i finally got safestrap 3.11 for M and i was able to backup my Stock slot, then create one on slot 1. When i go to select a zip to install the zip will not show up. I downloaded eclipse twice and it wont install because the zip wont even show up. I cleared everything on stock partition like factory resetand cache, ect. How can i get the zip to show up to install? Thanks in advance guys

Hopefully, you didn't wipe system on your stock slot. If you did, you no longer have an OS installed. When you set up a ROM slot, you don't need to wipe stock. You only need to wipe your custom slot. If you wiped stock, you'll need to fast boot back to stock.
If everything is OK, then you can flash Eclipse on ROM slot 1. You have to choose external SD in SS. The zip won't just magically appear.

No I made sure I didn't wipe stock system partition just factory reset and cleared cache and dalvick sorry. Then I activate slot 1 clear all of that and go to root of SD card and the zip doesn't show. Then I put it in TWRP folder to experiment and still no dice. No idea
Edit. Could it be the SD card? I navigate to device /storage/sdcard1 and it doesn't show anything no folders or anything but if I use es explorer I can navigate to the zip just fine so weird. I even just tried putting a .zip on the end but no go.

Can you upload safestrap for droid razr m cuz when i click on the link it says system offline.
I have a question about safestrap:
I just flashed the new 4.1.2 OTA update through fastboot. I was running eclipse in rom slot 1. Now, it seems safestrap and that partition are gone. Is that so? Am I basically just left with the OTA'd stock rom on my entire phone?
That is what I would prefer, but I just want to make sure safestrap or the space it created aren't lurking anywhere

If you fastbooted to 4.1.2, then it should have eliminated SS, but there are probably still some folders in there. Just use a file explorer and find any "SS" or "SafeStrap" folders and eliminate them.

Hey guys, so I'm deciding to try to put CM 10.1 stable onto my AT&T galaxy s3 obviously. I'm rooted and the superuser file is on my phone sd. Am I suppose to put CM 10.1 and the gapps onto the phone SD as well or am I suppose to put all of them onto my ex.SD card (p.s. It's only a 2gb :/ )? Also, should I try using goomanager or ROM manager or should I just put the files onto my SD and go into recovery and do it that way then? Sorry for the noob questions again, I'm just really knew to all of this stuff

It's always good to put them on your external SD that way if you wipe your internal by accident you'll still have your ROM and hopefully your backup to gall back on.
If you don't have clockwork mod recovery or twrp installed yet you'll need to take care of that first. Decide which recovery you want, download the appropriate program (goo manager for twrp or ROM manager for cwm)
It'll install your recovery.
Reboot into recovery and you'll want to back up your current setup in case you make a mistake. Than you'll wipe than flash your ROM and gapps and reboot and you're done.
This guide should help you with anything you need.

Thanks a whole lot! I appreciate it! Just a few more questions.
*Here's a real nooby one, how do I know if I have CWM or TWRP installed? I can get into recovery mode and it shows that Rom manager symbol up at the top.
*Should I move the SuperUser.zip file from my internal SD to my external sd and would I have to re-root if I did that?
*Hopefully the last question I have , and should my 2gb ex. SD card be big enough for all of the files and the back ups?

Ok so let's answer the last question first. 2gb is fairly small for anything other than 1 backup (depending on what you are backing up) and a ROM and Gapps. I have a 2gb sd that I keep my stock backup and a couple recovery files on for an emergency and a 32gb in my phone for everyday use.
I'm a little concerned about the SuperUser.zip you have floating around, have you installed it yet?
How did you root? I'm curious to see what steps you take. Because once you root, you than flash custom recovery and install SuperUser.zip IN your recovery. So either you already have recovery installed or you aren't 100% rooted yet.
Once SuperUser.zip is installed you can delete the zip, if you want to. It's merely an install file.
Go to your apps, do you see an app labelled SuperUser or SuperSU?

Ok I re read that again and noticed you mentioned that you got into recovery and you can see the logo for Clockwork Mod.
That's great. If you haven't already installed SuperUser.zip you'll want to do that. Also download ROM Manager if you haven't and make sure your recovery is up to date. The latest CWM is 6.0.3.1 you'll see the build number while you're in recovery.
Once that is all done, in recovery you'll want to make a backup.
After that you'll need to preform a full wipe and than you can flash the ROM and Gapps.

Yeah I have SuperSU installed and it grants me root access for like titanium back up and triangle away and that stuff.
Here's the steps that I used to root:
*Plugged my phone into my computer and copied the SuperSU.zip onto my internal SD
*Unplugged my phone and turned it off and booted it into download mode.
*Then I pressed Vol. Up to continue and then I plugged my phone back in and opened odin.
*I clicked the PDA button and chose the .tar file that I downloaded. (The whole thing that I downloaded was called RecoveryGalaxyS3USCanada)
*I then clicked start and waited till it said passed.
*It passed and then I took out my battery so it would be off and then put it into recovery mode I think. (Vol. up + home + power)
*Then it booted into a menu and I clicked install from SD card and then install zip from internal SD card and then I chose the SuperSU.zip and clicked yes and then it loaded and all that and then I chose to reboot it. It rebooted and then I had the SuperSU app and then I downloaded Titanium backup to make sure I was fully rooted and it loaded and backed it up.
That is all the steps that I did to root my s3. It was a video that I found on galaxys3root.com

No I was wondering because if you were on a Canadian carrier we would have extra steps.
Download ROM manager and make sure that your recovery is up to date it should be 6.0.3.1
Once its up to date you're ready to backup and flash.

I tried to use Rom manager a few days ago and I downloaded cm 10.1 rc5 and the gapps for it and I followed all of the steps from a video I think I found on here somewhere and it was working and all that and then it rebooted and it had the cyanogenmod logo thing loading and then about 1.5-2 minutes later, it said something like, "Setup Wizard has stopped working" and something else like "apps.google" has stopped working. I rebooted my phone after that and it was the same thing again. Have any idea why that happened?

Either one looks fine.
Did you flash the ROM with ROM manager?
That and goo manager are no good for flashing anything other than recoveries.

Rom manager causes a LOT of issues when flashing with it. Same with Goo Manager. Some people have had their devices bricked because of thos programs. They are good for just updating your recovery.
Making a nandroid will allow you to try out new ROMs while still keeping a safe backup in the event you experience issues during or after the OS installation. Be sure your device is fully charged before proceeding onto the backup and flashing procedures.
These are the steps you need to backup/wipe/flash manually.
It will become second nature to you quite quickly.
This is from xBeerdroidx's guide I sent you.
Backup all your pictures and music to your computer before doing any of this so you don't lose it.
1. Power off your device.
2. Press and hold Volume Up + Home + Power buttons at the same time.
3. Release the power button when the device vibrates and you see the blue script in the top left corner
4. You are now in custom recovery.
5. In CWM go to Backup and Restore and select Backup.
6. After backup is finished, select reboot system now or stay in recovery to continue with this guide.
*NOTE: Be sure to save a copy of this backup to your computer and/or micro sd card. Having a recent backup saved to your computer and micro SD card can be useful if something happens to your phones internal memory.
1. If you are not already in recovery, boot in now (Vol Up + Home + Power. Release the power button at vibrate and when you see the blue script in the top left corner).
In CWM:
2. Select Wipe data/factory reset
3. Select Wipe Cache
4. Select Advanced and Wipe Dalvik Cache
5. Select Mounts and Storage and format /system
6. If you are transitioning from 4.1 to 4.2 or 4.2 to 4.1, you must also format /data. You will lose all personal data so back it up first.
7. From the main recovery screen:
>>CWM - Choose the "install .zip from SD Card" or "install .zip from external SD card" option (depending on where you placed the files) then navigate to the ROM file, select it and confirm.
8. If you need to flash gapps, repeat step 5 and select the gapps package.
9. Reboot system. It will take several minutes to load so be patient and don't worry. Once the phone is booted, let it sit for 5 minutes, reboot and enjoy!
Hi, I will have my hands on this tablet very soon and want to use the Cleanrom that is listed in a thread here. This will be my first time doing this and have been searching around for a guide. I have read a few bits and pieces but would like someone to explain in a few steps so i can get this right the first time.
I found a guide to Root it at rootgalaxynote.com but would like to understand how to install the CleanROM.
Hello,
You have to install TWRP Recovery first, then you need to copy Rom.zip to storage and then flash it using Recovery, dont forget about Wipe.

All you need is to Install Custom Recovery to change ROM, that will allow you to do anything you want with your device (such as System Backup/Restore, installing .zip packages, and etc.) read thread about TWRP so you can find everything you need to know.
But notice the fact you'll lose your warranty installing custom roms, as I know there is no way to change warranty bit back to 0 yet.
All information you need to know about Custom Roms is already there.

Build says CleanRom 1.0 but all apps are still present
My build says CleanRom 1.0 but I still have all of the apps that others say are removed such as Sketchbook. My note was rooted using the AutoRoot file with Odin and then the stock recovery was flashed. I then used the twrp 3.0 file and booted into recovery. I then installed CleanRom (without reset per instructions) and the device rebooted and everything worked except all of the apps were still there. I then tried to re-flash CleanRom and perform the wipe but I then got stuck on the Samsung splash screen to no avail. I booted into recovery and tried re-flashing the CleanRom zip to no avail. All I could do to get this thing booted was to flash the auto-root file again in Odin, re-flash twrp, and install cleanrom again from the recovery but all of the apps are still there. Before I did any of this I had a bunch of the bloatware either frozen or uninstalled in Titanium but now some of those apps show lines through them in TBP. Either way, my device is showing CleanRom 1.0 under the build but I really don't think it is... any ideas on how to fix this?
Hi i'm a newbie on android
i've tried to install this rom a lot of time but unsuccessfully at any time
i've tried all the solutions i found here but none were successfull
i am under TWRP 2.6.3.0
my tablet is rooted but after the rom flash ,when i reboot ,just after the "galaxy note edition 2014" logo there's a black screen
the only way to repair is to flash with the mk1 stock rom after or to restore my old version saved with TWRP
can someone help ?
thanks

Before flashing your rom perform a factory reset in twrp and format /data. All your apps will be deleted and you should be fine if you are stuck on the samsung boot logo it might help to boot into recovery and format /cache and dalvik cache

So, I did the factory reset in twrp and then formatted the data. Naturally, everything was lost but when I went to install CleanRom it was no longer on the internal memory due to the format... but I did copy it to the Ext SD Card. MY problem is that twrp won't install the zip from the sd card. Each time it says its unable to mount "/data" even though I'm going into "advanced settings" and placing the check mark. I re-flashed twrp and tried using file manager to move the file to the internal storage but came up with the same problem. Also, I can't place the check on mount data for some reason. Now, my tablet starts to boot up but hangs on the samsung screen before the boot animation. Basically, its like there isn't any firmware on it and I tried re-doing the auto-root and stock recovery but thats a no go as well. Is this thing toasted?

Boot into TWRP and click "Restore Back Up" (Cannot remember exact verbiage) . Find where it says internal storage and press it and it will switch to a drop down and you can choose "External SD" Then go back and and it should be going to External SD instead of internal SD when you select install
Make sure you factory re-set. For safety, I advance wipe but I don't think that is necessary.
You may need to re-flash recovery if you're unable to access it.

Your device is not toasted I always have the Rom zip on the root directory of the device so formatting /data will not affect the rom zip. If you cant get it working then you might need to flash a firmware via odin and after that copy the rom on the internal root directory. Resetting your device should not format the whole internal storage so you can install the rom afterwards. Good luck mate

After the holiday (and many stressful attempts) I was finally able to re-boot the device and get past the splash screen. Opening Kies seemed to "kick" past the splash screen even though it said my device wasn't compatible with Kies. Anyway, I flashed the stock recovery, wiped, reset, flashed original firmware via Odin, flashed TWRP again, and then installed the CleanRom zip. Phew... it's FINALLY over with no issues and running smooth. I think the problem came in with TWRP not wiping correctly even though it said it did. I do appreciate all of the help and advice as you guys are life-savers!
