TWRP 3.0.0-1 broke custom roms? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

Copy & paste from the TWRP thread:
I have a weird issue and need some serious help. I flashed TWRP 3.0.0.1 last night via ODIN and my ROM wouldn't boot anymore. It gets to the boot animation screen then goes on forever. I tried fixing it by going to the TWRP version I was using before but I still faced the same issue and tried 3.0.0.0 as well and it still happens.
I am actually using a T-Mobile Marshmallow ROM and did the adoptable storage feature so that's what I'm assuming caused the issues since I couldn't unmount it before the problem popped up so I reformatted with it still in the system. Using a TMO rom with the ATT recovery worked previously so I don't think that's the problem. I also tried the CAN recovery and the TMO recovery and nope.
I also full factory wipe + wiping system + data + cache but didn't fix it as well. Some roms work like DN4 but I would rather go back to the rom I was using previously.
Anyone know what's up and how to fix this problem?

Biff corrected the issue in version 3.0.0.1....g
https://dl.twrp.me/t0lteatt/

3.0.0.1 bootloops for me too, I just flashed 2.8.7.0 instead while I wait for an update

I found out that 3.0.0-1 is 8.5M in size, making it too big to be flashed into Recovery. I had to flash 3.0.0-0 since it was 8M.

What I noticed with Version 3.0.0.1 is that it wipes out the modem as well when you do a wipe.
The reason Why, I tried it and got a Boot-loop, so I went back to 3.0.0.0 and it boot loops until I re flashed the modem.
I then Tested it again, same thing, so I went to Philz Touch Recovery and still boot-looped until I flashed the modem again.
I could be wrong, but that is what I noticed.

Cannot install CM11 no matter what

Hi guys,
I am getting DESPERATE here. Because of a mistake, I had to reflash stock LG ROM 50020d 4.4.2. From there, I rooted using geohot's towelroot and used Flashify to flash this TWRP 2.8.0.0 After 128754E10th attempt, it worked. I experienced all kinds of recovery loops when I used files for 4.2.2 base (because someone mentioned it's needed to prevent brightness issue) but it caused my recovery to go into some strange loop. So I reflashed the recovery.
Now I can enter TWRP 2.8.0.0 but I cannot, cannot, cannot flash yesterday's CM11 nightly for my device. When I try, log says:
Code:
Can't install this package on top of incompatible data. Please try another package or run a factory reset.
E: Error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard/cm-11-20141101-NIGHTLY-v500.zip'
Error flashing zip /sdcard/cm-11-20141101-NIGHTLY-v500.zip
Updating partition details
I am truly desperate. I even fixed the name of my device in build.prop to v500 (before it was 'awifi' for some reason) but still no dice.
Please, is there someone to give me some clear instructions? Thanks a lot guys.

Have you tried with another build of CM11? Perhaps the latest milestone? Have you wipe:d all the data and cache and stuff? Can you tell me how you got the TWRP on there? Did it work the first time you flashed the 4.4.2 version? Where you on the latest version of android before rooting?
Thanks for your effor, djmiek.
I managed to fix it yesterday. Nothing was out of ordinary - TWRP 2.8.0.0 (specifically for v500) was flashed using Flashify. Phone was rooted (see my original post) and I wiped everything properly before flashing CM11. However, for some reason there was no way to install nightly from 11/1. Everytime I tried to install, I got aforementioned error message.
So I got fed up with all that and just went and restored my whole tablet to a backup from april (50010b) which I very wisely did just after rooting the brand new device. This reverted TWRP to 2.6.3.2 and as soon as I booted recovery I could install that nightly without any hassle. No incompatible data, no bull like that - everything went smoothly. I don't know if there's a problem with TWRP 2.8.0.0 and current CM11 nightly combo but I sure as hell will stay away from it.
So, the moral of the story - BACKUP any working installation folks! Do not underestimate the power of word "restore". It feels goooood

Is 50010b also 4.4.2 or is it earlier? Did you just flash TWRP with flashify then after rooting?
I think it was 4.4.2.
My initial root after purchase was done according to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=05T3mYVnYYE
Everything went smoothly then, but I think you'd achieve the same outcome using Flashify.

LineageOS-based roms won't boot - Firmware 4.1.0

I'm having issues with LineageOS based roms. Basically, ever since 4.1.0 was released, I haven't been able to boot anything other than OxygenOS.
The first time I flashed the 4.1.0 firmware, my OnePlus 3 bricked. I then used the unbrick tool to fix it. I then tried again, by flashing the 4.1.0 firmware, then flashing the latest LineageOS "lineage-14.1-20170316-nightly-oneplus3-signed.zip". Upon reboot, the phone stays stuck at the lineageos boot animation. I can't get any logcats (adb logcat doesn't seem to work).
Things I've tried so far:
- Using TWRP 3.0.4-1
- Using TWRP 3.1.0-0
- Dirty flash
- Clean flash
- Data as both f2fs and ext4, neither works
- Tried using TWRP's "Fix Contents"
- Tried using TWRP's filesystem repair, no problems with the filesystem
I'm at a loss, no idea what to do. I really want to get back to LineageOS, but ever since that original brick, the phone hasn't been able to boot anything other than the stock ROM.
do you try download again that rom?
i had some problems with AICP, flashing last firmware+modem was solved
you can try using other base, like 4.02, or freedomOS OB12
just ideas, I don't know what's the problem :/
bro i flashed the 316 build on oos 4.1 firmware and modem no issue here all works fine still using it with blue spark kernal you must have done something wrong

I don't think I screwed up anything. I had flashed multiple roms before. (LineageOS, ResurrectionRemix, AICP, FreedomOS...)
All of them worked, up until recently. When the 4.1.0 update came out, LineageOS Roms stopped booting. OxygenOS ROMS still work fine though. Flashing the OB12 firmware doesn't help.
This is the first time this has happened, I have no idea why its happening.
Do you flash SuperSU, without SuperSU mine boots fine. Without i m stuck in boot
Tried flashing SuperSU, but nothing has changed. Android still won't boot up if it is a LineageOS based ROM
go to stock recovery (oxygen os stock one)
then flash 4.1.0 with that recovery
then boot
now replace the recovery with twrp 3.1.0
once done dont boot the rom n go to recovery and flash su
now boot rom
now again go to twrp n wipe system, data, cache, dalvik
and then flash lineage lastest build.. it will work
if not lemme know i will help you further

Just did it. It didn't work, the phone gets stuck in the LineageOS Boot screen
Now, not even Android 6.0 ROMS will boot. I think some partitions are corrupted, but I'm unable to wipe them in fastboot mode.
Edit: So, finally, after 3 days, I was able to get in contact with OnePlus. OnePlus fixed the problem with the Qualcomm Tools, not entirely sure what they did, but it fixed the problem. I'm finally able to boot LineageOS!!!!

how much time do you wait because first boot does take 5 or more minutes

OnePlus said that the persist partition had been corrupted. So they re-flashed it and the phone started booting custom ROMS again. I guess the ROMS weren't booting because they got stuck waiting on the sensors. (To be completely honest, I never noticed that the sensors were broken. Since the only one I frequently use is the Gyroscope and that one was working fine)

If you have backup then Install your stock rom and its every components such as boot, recovery etc....
Or download the fastboot files from the p2 thread and flash it.
Then properly install twrp.
How can i properly install twrp?.. I mean, i think i always installed in correctly...otherwise magisk wouldn't work., right?. Because it does. I need your help. I even got Safetynet Pass and Root Apps like Root Explorer is working Fine.
Only the Flashing of Custom Roms etc fails for me... It's weird.
Okey. I just redid it like 5 Times. And i got a bit farther.. new boot animation shows up. But still blue led after it stops.
I FINALLY found the SolutioN!!! I used this https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634780916 and did the upgrades per ota. Then adb'd my twrp on my phone. And changed data to ext4. Rebooted. Activated usb debugging again. flashed twrp again(just to be sure), booted into twrp. Formatted system,data,cache,dalvik and then flashed my roms. SUCCESS <3

Infinite boot in twrp recovery mode

Hello guys.
I'm having trouble here with a friend's device.
the device simply reboots the twrp.
I already realized the flash of several rons, I also tried with the stock.
installs everything correctly, but at the time of doing the reenicialization in the system returns to twrp again.
I have already tested several versions of twrp and also did not succeed.
Has anyone ever had this problem? I'm finding it very strange, because I've been with rom for a long time and I've never had any problems like this.
What do you think it could be? and how can I resolve and re-restart correctly again?
Thank you in advance.
You flashed the stock ROM and you still have TWRP? Then something is wrong. Usually when that happens you did something wrong. So this is a good thing you are stuck in TWRP. Usually a factory reset will make it boot again. You can pull data off from TWRP before doing this (like pictures and such).
What exactly have you tried to flash (order too), and what version of TWRP are you using. The factory ROM may not have worked as well if you tried to flash the latest, without having the treble partition setup, or did not have a version of TWRP that keeps the vendor partition mounted.
We really need a few more details on what you tried to help.
If you just want to get it booting, I would try wiping everything in BluSpark's TWRP, and flash 5.1.5 OOS.

Idle phone spontaneously booted into twrp recovery

I have MIUI_XiaomiEU_Stable_10.3.4.0_FIXED installed for a few month. The phone was working but was occasionally restarting spontaneously.
I had this problem also on stock rom.
Today the phone rebooted into twrp recovery and will not boot into system again.
When turned on it boots to twrp. I can als manually get it to boot to fastmode.
I can properly boot to system after I boot into fastboot and do "fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-dees_troy-daisy.img" .
Any advice on how to fix it ?
What go corrupted ?
Can I fix it by flashing twrp-3.3.1-dees_troy-daisy.img ?
p.s I had the same problem 6 weeks ago. I wiped everything and flashed stock rom using Miflash. I want to avoid it and keep my data if possible.
I'm not sure what's causing the issue, as it might be ROM related, because you said yourself that you had spontaneous reboots on MIUI. But I believe the TWRP you are using might be part of the issue. You should use Offain's version of TWRP found here: https://androidfilehost.com/?a=show&w=files&flid=291011
Use the latest version to avoid bugs. Somehow the 'official' version of TWRP doesn't work properly. Cheers.
