After flashing TWRP with Odin, I boot into recovery and wipe the dalvik cache. I then go to install the CM13 zip file, and it works. I wipe Dalvik again and reboot in the os. This is where it just shows the CM boot screen infinitely. Nothing else. What is up. I am using the latest TWRP and CM13 release.
Try this:
1. Wipe cache, dalvic cache, data, system
2. Install CM13 again, along with your gapps(google apps if you didn't know, custom ROMs never come with them, optional)
3. Boot it, it should work
You cannot switch ROMs without wiping data. Bad things happen.
You must clean flash when:
1. Switching between a stock ROM to a custom ROM
2. Downgrading Android versions (5.1 to 5.0)
3. Switching custom ROMs (I.E. CM13 to AICP)
4. When the ROM's thread warns to (switching keys)
5. Switching between nightly builds and stable.
When you're updating nightlies, you shouldn't have to though.

Just did it, it still seems to be booting like it previously was. Wiped cache, dalvic, data, and system and then installed CM13 and gapps. Still booting as I write this.
Since that failed, check your download, make sure nothings bad. If its bad, redownload, if not, idk.
If you post your recovery logs, or what the console says, that will help me figure out what's going on.
Also, is your phone the triband model (l710t)?
Are you flashing anything else at the same time?
The more info you give, the better.

I've kind of given up at this point. Even CM12 doesn't work. The only thing that seems to work is the stock rom. My phone is the regular SPH-L710 model. I didn't even know the L710t was a thing.
I have the same problem, and sometimes it boot in the system setup mode, but the sensor is not working, i can turn on airplane mode, reboot or power off, and sensor works, what happend i dont know((

I have a Samsung Galaxy Nexus GSM and have been trying to install the Paranoid Android flavor custom ROM, I had 2.22 installed not long ago but managed to screw it up when I updated it without clearing my security settings (I had a 4x4 pattern swipe which I couldn't enter with the update which restored it to 3x3 pattern) so I wiped and restored to stock 4.2. I'm now trying to re-install with any custom ROM but it's not working.
Whenever I install a ROM it seems to install ok but when I get to the boot screen it just hangs on the nexus/PA logo.
I've tried with:
Goo Manager
TWRP 2.2
TWRP 2.3
CWM 6.0.1.5
and with
PA 2.22
PA 2.99.1
PA 2.99.5
PA 2.99.6
PA 2.99.7
and I always get the same error, I've tried wiping all options within TWRP and CWM and going from there but that doesn't seem to work, the strange thing for me though is that if I re-install a stock Google ROM it works perfectly fine.
I'm fairly new so please be gentle.
flash the latest twrp and move the rom and gapps to your sdcard then follow this..
1. factory reset
2. wipe system
3. wipe cache
4. wipe dalvik
5. flash rom
6. flash gapps
7. reboot
if it still freezes at boot animation pull battery reboot to recovery wipe cache/dalvik and reboot
Thanks for the suggestion but that didn't work.
Any other suggestions?
When you say TWRP 2.3 do you mean 2.3.2.1? http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/90
Clockwork 6.0.1.5 is also outdated, newest is 6.0.1.9.
You need to update your recoveries for Android 4.2.X which is what PA 2.99 is based off of.

Yes I did mean 2.3.2.1, I wasn't sure what the whole version number was at the time and I was halfway through resetting up stock on my phone at the time so I didn't bother to check exactly. sorry about that.
Is there a way to completely wipe everything on the phone so that it is bare stock? I was just wondering if I would be able to start from a clean phone if it would make any difference. I'm aware of cache/delvik cache/internal storage/(i think it's called "system partition" or something like that).
Using TWRP, wiping cache, dalvik, and system should wipe everything except the sdcard contents. So doing these wipes should make your phone "bare stock" again as you described
Why don't you try downloading another custom ROM or download the same ROM again because maybe it is corrupted or something

hi,everyone.
i've just tried to install cm11 in my galaxy nexus and it cannot boot on now
its installation is fail because status 7 in the cwm recovery
i still cant boot on my phone
can anyone help me
What version of CWM Recovery are you on? An update of the recovery to a newer build might help.
Break me off a piece of that Kit-Kat ROM!
What version of Android are you coming from? Anytime you are switching to a different ROM, especially from a JellyBean (4.3 or other) to a KitKat 4.4 ROM, you must do a clean wipe of your phone prior to installation. It sounds like you tried to do a dirty flash. Boot into recovery, and format data, cache, and dalvik cache, then try flashing the CM11 and Gapps.
If that doesn't work...try this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2302599

i am coming from the stock android 4.3 rom. I've tried wipe the data,wipe cache and dalvik cache.However,it just keeps saying installation error in the cwm touch recovery because of the status 7.
That method doesnt work for me. i still even cannot boot on my phone.how can i send it in again
OK, first you need to manually boot into your recovery by holding the volume up and down buttons at the same time and then pressing the power button. You should get into your bootloader and then be able choose recovery. I assume you have a backup...so just flash back to your stock android 4.3. Then once you are able to get back into your phone see if you can update your cwm. If updating you cwm turns out not to be the issue then go watch a YouTube video on how to fix the status 7 error. It basically involves copying the zip file you are trying to flash over to your computer and editing one of the files. Goodluck...let me know if this works.

check your baseband..you should be in the latest radio..mine is XXLH1..other rom required latest baseband..
Pretty sure it sounds like he is on an outdated version of cwm, status 7 errors can be signs of old recovery version. Fastboot flash the latest cwm.
Ok, so i was using the cyanogenmod nightlys just fine until i decided to want to try other roms (Pac-man, exodus, etc.) when i loaded the first i used clockwork recovery and it seemed to go smoothly and installed the Gapps, and BAM boot loop, i can still access the recovery menu and the Odin mode menus with the boot sequence, ive successfully side-loaded other roms and Gapps and nothing seems to work, everything just gives me the boot loop, Any help is much appreciated.
Edit: forgot to mention, sometimes it loads the rom but only for a few seconds and reboots again
Assume you did clean flash? Wiping data, cache, dalvik cache.
Also twrp recovery works a little better flashing lollipop roms.

yes, i did a clean flash, do you think it could be as simple as using twrp?
Could even be the gapps you're using. If you're using a very recent build of a rom, make sure you're using new gapps. Try open gapps.
It's also sometimes necessary to wipe internal storage.

Hello!
For some reason the custom ROMs Sultans CM13 and Resurrection Remix crash every 5-15 minutes, it freezes then reboots, and does it faster after that. I've tries reinstalling TWRP to no avail...
Stock works fine with Root and Xposed... But Custom ROMs don't want to work... So my guess is it's not a hardware issue...
I really want to get this solved since HOS is being merged with OOS...
help? Thanks!

No that's both dirty flashing. You need to wipe Dalvik + Cache + System + data.
Do not wipe internal because then there's nothing left to flash.
You will lose all your apps wiping data but I suppose you know right?

Yes I know, I've flashed before...
Now, when I wipe all but internal (for obvious reasons) I will loose root + xposed correct? I've never flashed any Roms while having root and xposed installed...

When you wipe all but internal you are starting clean and don't need to do anything other then flash ROM+gapps
And optional flash xposed. Root is already included in most roms.

Your doing it correctly.but still facing issues so i will suggest you to do real clean flash that means first flash full rom zip (about 1.3 gb in size) of stock oos via twrp then let device to boot.
Then enter into recovery ( use Official latest one) and wipe cache, data and system partition.
Now flash ROM.zip - supersu -kernel(optional) and now boot the Device and let it optimize all apps.
If you want Xposed now you can flash it ( be careful while selecting xposed zip . flash appropriate zip - sdk23 arm64)

Haven't had cause to use xposed for a while, but am assuming it still uses it's own framework? This used to preclude flashing a new rom whilst xposed was activated.

Debugging instability with custom roms, and adding xposed modules into the mix, is a bit of a black art but here goes.
First install your custom ROM, with a clean flash i.e wipe everything. Do Not restore any data, except the stuff Google restores itself. Run the rom in this state for a good while (as a rule of thumb try running it for twice your expected stable period before considering it at stable i.e if it crashes once a day run it for two days) if stable proceed to next stage.
If your chosen custom ROM does not have xposed framework install it and activate now, Do not install any modules run for a while to access stability before proceeding to next step.
One by one install your chosen modules, again running each for a while to access stability.
At any one of these steps stability should degrade if so you have identified your culprit.
I know this process is laborious and likely to take a while to complete but sometimes otherwise rock solid roms can be affected by a combination of things and without carrying out the above steps identifying the culprit is nigh on impossible, do bear in mind that some custom roms are just less stable than stock.

Wow, that is poor. You aren't having this problem with stock OS?
I'm having some issues flashing any ROM. TWRP will not wipe data, or internal SD
For some reason, when I go to wipe data and factory reset, TWRP will say it was successful, but nothing ever gets wiped. It will only wipe system if I choose to. I've gotten a ROM to flash but when it boots up, all of the old apps and user data are still there and it makes everything crash. I've gotten into settings to do a reset, it reboots into recovery, runs the script, and still nothing wipes.
What I have tried:
Old TWRP, newest TWRP
CWM (seems to wipe but it won't get past the note 2 screen after flashing anything)
Wiping with CWM, flashing TWRP, then flashing a ROM (still loops after the note 2 screen)
Is there a terminal command I can use in TWRP to manually wipe things?
Thanks for any help I can get, I've flashed so many phones I can't remember but I've never had this issue
Maybe flash back to a stock ROM, factory wipe using stock recovery, then flash TWRP?

Well when it bootloops t the Note 2 screen, I have to flash a ROM with Odin to get it working again. I've flashed a stock ROM with Odin, flashed TWRP with Odin, tried the wipes and it never wipes anything... I'm lost...
Isn't there a format function in TWRP that is seperate from the factory reset or advanced wipes? I was also trying to find a terminal command to type in the terminal in TWRP... I'm a little stumped...
I'm sorry, I read that too fast... That may actually work, wipe it in the stock recovery, and just don't let it boot into the system before flashing other stuff... I'm gonna try that out... Thanks man, I'll post back about it...
Since you are flashing the phone with Odin, is it a stock 4.1.1 ROM you're flashing? Which custom ROM are you flashing to the phone?

The stock ROM I used is I317-ODIN-UCUCNJ1-Stock without the booloader packaged in, I'm still on the old bootloader. It's 4.4.2
The ROMS I've tried to flash was
Cyanide (Error 7, says incompatible data, please wipe the phone)
Resurrection Remix (Error 7, says incompatible data, please wipe the phone)
Latest CM10 Nightly
I got CM10 and Resurrection Remix to flash a couple times, but the phone boots and all the old apps and data, including the AT&T ones are still there, and the system keeps crashing. Then I change the recovery to CWM because it seems to wipe, change back to TWRP, flash the ROM and gapps again, but it bootloops at the Note 2 screen.
Should I try the 4.1.1 ROM and CWM? Whenever I'm going from a stock TW to non-TW I like to format everything, data, cache, system, and internal SD, but of course TWRP won't wipe the data or the internal SD.
It's probably because the bootloader and modem are too old for the roms. Recent roms will need updated bootloaders.
Ok, I had some more time to mess around with this today and figured it out. I feel kind of dumb but oh well, I got it.
TWRP was already loaded on, so I went to messing with it again. The 'Swipe to factory reset' was not wiping the data, and there was the 'Format Data' button right there in front of me. I did the factory reset, format data, rebooted recovery, wiped dalvik, cache, and system, then flashed the ROM and everything booted up just fine.
Thanks for all of the help!
