Okay, I searched before posting. Here is my steps.
I was on SKYNOTE 8.2 and wanted to go back to stock and see what At&t's update was about.
Once back to stock, I rooted my phone and have been on this setup for about 2 weeks.
I was in the original thread and saw the new 4.2.2 Collective AoCP / CM10.1 ROM.
I wanted to try it out.
Using TWRP's latest, followed all instructions and when rebooting it still has stock root ROM.
What am I doing wrong?
I thought it was TWRP so I went to an earlier ver, still no change.
I've tried 4 times now to flash this 4.2.2 Rom and nothing.
Factory Reset
Wiped Dalvik
Install Zip
Install gapps
It says to wipe cache and data again
then boot up
It boots up alright, right into my old phone.
Any input I can get is appreciated guys !!!! Thanks.
Copy the ROM to your device (some storage folder)
Boot directly to TWRP
Manually install the ROM and the appropriate GAPPS
(watch the script window and see what it says.. look for errors)
Clear caches and dalvik
reboot

Try wiping cache/delvik cache, then factory reset twice, then system wipe twice, Install .zip, Install GApps, then wipe cache/delvik again(don't wipe data after .zip is installed. That's how I always do it and it works great.
I think its my recovery Twrp. I changed something.

I have tried everything. Its got to be the recovery. No matter what I do in twrp, nothing changes. It says updating partitions and stimulating actions
. It also says successful. After updating to the newest twrp it started this. I changed something. ##[email protected] went into settings and reset....nothing. What if I flashed CWM and then went back to TWRP.

Okay guys....This has made me sick to my stomach.....I have tried all the different methods. I even soft bricked my phone today using CWM.
Kies wouldnt even fix my phone.
I had to download stock firmware and flash via Odin to get back.
Installed TWRP
Rooted
Went into recovery and wiped everything again
Installed the custom ROM
Rebooted
TWRP didnt do anything even though it says it did.
My phone boots up like normal with Att logo and works but no Custom Rom and no wipes.
What is this? Im going to try other things but wow, this is crazy.
On my SD card I have alot of stuff. I also have a folder named TWRP, it has a back up in there. I wonder if I should remove that?
IDK,,,,,Stuck with Stock root for now. Help If you can. Never had this issue before. What a day

Might as well try everything. wipe your sd card in twrp,if that doesn't work reformat through android when booted. Then copy the custom rom over and try again. Only other thing I can think to try is to check that all partitions that are needed are mounted, or try CWM instead.
Also, how did you install TWRP? Through the app? that is the best way to do it, I have had problems flashing twrp through CWM or through the computer. If you aren't already, use goomanager to install it. TWRP has instructions on their website
I figured it out!!!!!!!

Hello everyone,
I would post this in the development thread but I can't since I am a ne user. Anyway..
I am currently on InFamous switching between the 2.4 TW version and the Google Edition v2.0.
My problem is every time I reboot my phone, it gets stuck on the Samsung Galaxy S4 boot image. Then when I go to recovery the Internal storage shows 0 MB available, and I can't fix permissions or wipe anything without having to format data first. The only way to boot my phone again, is to format data, wipe everything, and reinstall the ROM which is very annoying and time consuming.
PLEASE HELP!!
Thanks in advance

Have you tried this:
Before doing anything, be sure to back up the internal sdcard to a folder on your computer if you have anything you
want to save on the internal sdcard. Also be sure that the Google Edition zip file rom is on your "external" sdcard.
When the phone is flashed and ready to use go into settings>accounts tab>backup and reset>"Factory data reset".
Click on the factory data reset.
After doing that reboot into cwm or twrp which ever you are using and do a full wipe as you usually do but don't
forget to include "Factory reset".
Then flash the Google Edition rom as you normally have done and it should fix the problem you are having hopefully.
Good luck!

Have you tried holding the power button, home key and the volume up key all at the same time to boot in recovery? If not do a battery pull and do it when turning the phone back on

If you already tried to Odin flash the STOCK rom and formatted your internal sdcard and you still find "0 MB"
in your internal storage then it must be a hardware issue and if I were you I would return/exchange the phone.
Good luck!
It's not a hardware issue. It's a bug in twrp. Whenever you do "format data" it corrupts the data partition. Use PhilZ Touch recovery. His recovery includes the fix. Try it.

Thanks, I'll try that. How do I get rid of the bug after writing the new recovery? Format data?
Thanks!
Hello, any progress please? I have exactly the same issue.
I found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265588&page=23 this solution:
I wanted to clean my internal SD card before flashing Omega ROM, so I used Format Data option from Wipe section in TWRP.
After that I lost almost two days trying to fix my phone. Flashed stock ROM, TWRP and Omega ROM endless times without success after that.
My phone became randomly unbootable on reboot or power on! It was stuck on i9505 logo that is shown before boot animation forever. It was same for both stock and Omega ROM, with or without external micro SD.
After endless tries, I figured out that my phone works fine if I do factory reset and wipe from original recovery. Worked fine before and after flashing TWRP.
I tired to Format Data from TWRP again and my phone again was stuck on boot.
So I did everything once more. Flashed stock, did factory reset and wipe from original recovery and then installed TWRP and in the end I flashed Omega without wiping anything.
Everything works just fine now and I will not try to use Format data option from TWRP on this device in near time! Please fix this.
First I used TWRP 2.5.0.1 and then 2.5.0.2, but it is same in both of them.

It says so in the OP... going between TW and Google Edition 2.0.. Out of curiosity though, what difference would that make? I have flashed and have backups of two versions of TW and quite a few AOSP variants... I can move between them seamlessly and haven't encountered any such problems as the OP. I use TWRP as well.
It was TWRP problem. I have flashed the stock ROM with stock recovery. I have done full wipe and my phone works well again. This is bug in TWRP. Don't push "format data" button!
tried to flash gummy rom 4.4. afterwards phone gets stuck at samsung galaxy s4 screen and just hangs there.
reboot into recovery tried flashing a different rom, no go
wiped data cache davlik, fixed permissions, same result
tried latest twrp recovery - same result
tried latest cwm recovery - same result
tried philz recovery - same result
it was running aroma beforehand
any ideas, thanks for your help
i cannot find my backup as last time i flashed was awhile ago, i cant remember where it is
You came from a 4.2 or 4.3 rom and didnt wipe data didnt you.
In cwr, mounts and storage, format everything except sd card and ext sd card. then reflash.

when i try and format data the phone restarts?????
sounds like a partition issue. Whihc if it is, just go ahead and attempt to odin to stock.
Try switching recoveries first tho. perhaps the one oyu have is borked
seems to be doing it on all recoveries, sorry to be a bother, but i looked under roms i dont see a stock rom?

When you say latest version of Beanstalk do you mean the Lollipop build? If so that first boot can take up to 15-20 minutes. And after you flash a Lollipop build of any kind and try to flash to a Kitkat build, you have to make sure you wipe internal storage first otherwise it won't boot at all.

I haven't used clockwork mod in forever but i think it's under mounts and storage then format internal sd. Anytime you flash lollipop then go back to anything, whether it's another lollipop rom or a nandroid, you must wipe your internal sd also.

Another problem I ran into with the beanstalk rom lollipop build was the inability to connect to 4G LTE. Is there a way to fix this? I have attached the settings menu where I have selected the 4G option.
Well im somewhat new to rooting etc, so while I was in twrp I accidentally hit the format button assuming it would give me options and I formatted the internal SD, I could not Re partition it, So I formatted everything and installed a new and clockwork mod(some said that would fix it), attempted to reformat it and partition it, i couldn't, it wouldn't even recognize so after trying everything I could, I just made the problem worse and worse, now clockwork mod wont even go back, like I literally cant go back, It just crashes when I try to go back, Whenever I try to flash from Odin to the phone, trying to with clockwork mod, it still seems corrupted, so its been sitting on my desk for a week, I've been trying to fix it for two, so being the stereotypical guy, the last thing I do, I ask for help, So please, Help?

Try flash this Rom which has root access built into it
Also, I recommend you use TWRP recovery (flashable zip) instead since it's UI and features are better than CWM(I think the author had discontinued the project)

Did you do a clean flash ? (Factory reset then flash the Rom)
Or try wipe the internal SD Card (backup your data first) then flash the Recovery Zip (first) then the Rom (Second), finally the Gapps (third)
