Hello dear community. I really need your help. I was on DN3 5.2 lite and I wanted to move to CM11S M9 ROM. I wiped everything(including internal storage) but after installing ROM and gapps my phone is stuck on bootanimation forever. I tried to install with TWRP and CWM 6.0.4.3 from ROM manager (play store). Also when using CWM I cant wipe preload for some reason!!!(it says "failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p14 Error formatting /preload!) I think I'm using MK9 bootloader if that even matters. PLEASE HELP :'(
Download TWRP 2.7.1.2 and put in your SD external. Flash.

Try this recovery
Hi everyone,
I'm a n00bie to custom ROM's but have the itch to get moving on one.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 n7100 (international model).
It is currently running stock android 4.4.2 but I am sick of the Samsung bloatware and want to get it similar to a nexus experience.
I have been reading on different ROM's and like the sound of BlissPOP, Resurrection Remix & of course Cynaogenmod.
So far I have done the following:
1) rooted the stock ROM
2) Installed TWRP 3.0.0-0
3) removed apps and data (to make backup smaller)
4) performed a ROM backup using TWRP
I am wondering if I get some help with the next steps as I have read slightly varying steps.
I think I have my mind set on flashing resurrection remix android 5.1.1, given it has been out since late last year; but have also looked at resurrection remix android 6.0.1 & blissPOP android 6.0.1 ROMS.
I have the ROM + Gapps downloaded and on my ext SD card.
The steps that I am familiar with is:
1) reboot into recovery - TWRP
2) do factory reset/wipe data
3) wipe cache
4) wipe dalvik cache
5) choose ROM zip to install
6) choose Gapps zip and install
However the new TWRP 3.0.0-0 is slightly different.
So I guess my questions are:
1) TWRP 3.0.0-0 has one quick option which does everything. Is this ok to do OR should I go into advanced and select each separately and wipe?
2) Should I have the ROM & Gapps on my ext SD Card or the internal SD card? If on the internal SD card, will this not get wiped with the factory reset/wipe data?
3) Do I removed SD card before first power up after installed?
Thanks for any help. I'm really looking forward to giving my phone and 'update' and seeing better performance.
Just want to make sure that I am doing everything correctly and not missing anything to give myself the best chance of success.
This is my primary phone so don't want anything to go wrong.
Thanks again and look forward to replies and any suggestions you may have.
cheers

1. Full wipe is what you need
2. You can copy files after wipe to internal, just mount it
3. Do not remove sd card
Before that make EFS backup
Hi Yaro,
1) Full wipe: is this done from within TWRP?
2) TWRP 3 appears to already work with ext SD. So you say copy from ext SD to phone/int SD card? So I should be able to do this from within TWRP?
I have done a separate EFS backup already
I'm reading good things about RR Android 6.0.1 ROM. Is there any difference in installing that to say RR 5.1.1?

1. Yes, in twrp you have option to wipe everything to make a clean install, or you can select everything and wipe it - i.e. internal, cache, dalvik...
2. You can connect your phone after wipe, then copy rom and gapps from pc or just go with external sd.
Do not worry you already did the hardest part.
I was using rr 5.1.1, very good rom, but you have to test dor yourself. Now I'm sticking with cm13 build 9, just pure rom, fast, nice, smooth.
You seems good to go with custom roms, give it a try
Hi Yarro,
sorry to be a pain.
In TWRP I have the following:
- on main screen, select 'WIPE'
- shows this screen will do a 'factory reset' which wipes data, cache and dalvik (not including internal storage)
- there is also a 'FORMAT DATA' button and 'ADVANCED WIPE' button
- under 'ADVANCED WIPE' there is selectable options:
- Davik/ART Cache
- Cache
- System
- Data
- Internal Storage
- Micro SDCard
- USB OTG
Select what is wanted and then use slider to wipe
So, should I....
(1) perform the factory reset which wipes data, cache and dalvik (not including internal storage) in one step?
(2) then install fro ext sd card and choose the rr 5.1.1, wait for completion
(3) then install from ext sd card and choose gapps
- Also is there need to confirm MD5 of the ROM before installing?
Cheers
Hi Yaro,
So I have given it a try.
- Booted into TWRP 3.0.0-0
- Performed factory reset (which does cache, data, dalvik)
- attempted install but got error 7
- phone still boot to factory rom
- I copied blisspop android 6 rom to sd card
- again attempted install but got same error 7
I read somewhere that someone had the same issue and they changed recovery to CWM and then they could install ROMs
I am currently restoring my phone using the backup I did prior.
I will then change recovery to CWM, take a new a new backup and then give it another go
I am having trouble getting CWM recovery installed.
I originally installed CWM via ROM Manager.
I then tried to change to TWRP via ROM Manager but although it said it was installed, CWM was actually installed.
I got TWRP installed by using TWRP Manager ( also installed Busy Box).
I am now trying to use ROM Manager to install CWM again but although it says it has installed it TWRP is still on.
I have now used TWRP manager to backdate/install version 2.8.7.0 which has worked.
Unsure whether to try this earlier version of TWRP or get CWM installed.
Can anyone help with getting CWM installed and why ROM Manager is doing what it says it is?

U are coming from stock rom and u need to format preload etc which TWRP can't format. Go to philz recovery thread somewhere at last posts a member had post a link for a modified version of recovery 6.58 something. Download this zip, install it with TWRP and reboot at recovery again. Now with philz recovery format: preload, system, cache, dalvik and data and after install rom and gapps, wipe cache and dalvik and reboot to system. Prefer latest RR 5.1.1 from varund's thread and don't use earlier version of philz recovery because it can't install latest gapps.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=61703745
RR needs sometime for first boot if it does more than 5 minutes to boot means that is in bootloop push the power button some seconds until the phone to reboot and the second time will boot ok
Hi Porto,
Thanks for the advice.
I have Philz recovery installed.
I can see the format options under custom format options.
I found how to perform a backup to ext sd card.
Backup was done on data, system, boot partitions. I will do a separate backup of efs.
Do you recommend any other partition backups?
You mention RR 5.1.1, do you see any issues with flashing RR 6.0.1?
Cheers
thanks
Guys! I screwed up bad! An amateur mistake! After thinking about trying a rom, I factory resetted my device along with the internal storage where I stored my zip file and my backups.....now I have a SMT320 with no OS. Help?? Anything will do! I don't dare booting up my device as it will go in a bootloop or may even hard-brick.....I need some serious help here!
try using hotkeys (home+vol up + power,I think) to boot straight into recovery when the device is off.
Yeah, I can do that but my files aren't showing up.....all I did in the recovery was factory reset,wipe data, system and cache and then when I tried to install the rom, it didn't show up. I think It is because I formatted my ad card before for the device and pretty sure the rom is in that.....pls help

But my files are missing, read my last post
Connect it to a computer when in TWRP recovery. The internal memory should show up so you can transfer the zip file over.
dont worry. if you have twrp you can install install any custom rom.
download custom rom+gapps via opengapps. com to copy to your sd card.
put it in your sd slot in tab pro, boot in twrp, tick install, tick sd card storage, then install rom and gapps. done.
or you can flash official rom via odin. how to do it check forum or mail me to pm and i will help you step by step

Have you tried acessing in a computer?
Also... you may have wiped everything before flashing RR.
Hi, I regularly flash new roms for our device to test them, so I'm using TWRP for a long time.
2 weeks ago I installed the stock oreo rom and the TWRP recovery via fastboot.
Yesterday I wanted to test ToxycOS so I tried to wipe everything. The log does not show any error but the system and internal memory are sill there. From the main page of TWRP, if I go to ''Install'' and then ''select storage'' it says that there are ~50000 Mb in the internal storage, and I still can see all the folders with the TWRP file manager.
I even tried to format data but the result is the same.
The device won't boot but the files are still there.
So now I can only dirty flash roms.
It never happened to me before, what can I do?
