Yes. You need to install/set up/adjust everything again after you do a full wipe and re-install a ROM. No need to re-flash recovery again, it will survive the wipe

Can't flash ANY JB custom roms

Hey there guys, new to Samsung devices (solid LG user here). Wifey got this phone and I'm trying to flash JB (it's in ICS coming from GB). As the title says, whatever custom JB rom out there for this phone won't work! I don't know, maybe I just missed something or what, but I followed, read every instructions there is (I don't have any problems flashing any roms on my LG's...)
Why can't I flash any JB roms? While I can flash any custom ICS roms on this phone..anything I missed? Need to be enlightened. Thank you in advance. Btw, I like to try Chameleon OS

You'll prolly have to give more info like the steps your taking to flash them. What recovery are you using if any.

Oh sorry. Forgot to mention those. As of lately, I wanted to try Chameleon OS. the steps I did:
* factory reset
* full wipe (format /system & /cache)
* flash latest Chameleon OS nightly
* wipe davlik
* reboot, waited for 15 mins
I did this on all JB roms I tried...but none of them works. Btw, I'm on TWRP 2.5
Thanks for the reply.

You're missing gapps after flashing ROM
If a ROM is aosp based you need gapps...there's a link for the latest 4.2.2 gapps in the chameleon thread or you can search for it on goo.im
Once you Dow load gapps and ROM do the following
Reboot into twrp recovery
Click on wipe
Click advance wipe
Check the first 4 (dalvik, data, system, cache)
Swipe to wipe
Flash ROM
Flash gapps
You can wipe dalvik/cache again after (I don't since the caches haven't been built yet for the newly flashed ROM)
Reboot
Wait 10 mins after seeing the welcome screen (don't touch anything)
Reboot device again and setup :thumbup::beer:
EDIT: my fault..not flashing the gapps won't make you hang on boot but still try my method to flash and let me know if it worked.

I already did when I said thanks! It was succesful

No it was caused by not wiping properly on twrp. You need to make sure all 4 partitions are being wiped that's why my steps said click advance wipe and check the first 4.

Can't connect to camera error

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2340858
Hi I was trying out the new 4.3 camera and this happend.
I downloaded the apk. It couldn't install so I backed up the original camera and installed the new camera. After installing the new camera freezes, everytime I open the camera again it says Camera could not connect. So I uninstalled the new camera and went to titanium backup, but the backup wasn't there, so I went to system/app but there was no gallery or camera app. My last hope was gapps. I went to recovery flashed gapps, wiped dalvik/cache and still no camera or gallery. And also before installing the new camera I disabled the old camera. I tried to reset app perference but it did not work.
EDIT: Factory reset did not help.

Sounds to me like the problem is you disabled the old camera instead of deleting it outright. You have to completely remove it for the new one to work. I just did a quick backup of it and uninstalled it. Installed the new app and its working perfectly. No having to click focus before taking a picture or anything :good:

Can anyone find a working camera for 4.2.2? I have been searching for hours. Every camera I install, I get can't connect to camera.

Seriously?? You're the first person I've heard say that... Besides me and my post I made a few hours ago.

Why not flash rom/gapps again in recovery? I'd wipe cache & dalvik then flash and reboot. This should restore the camera and will only take 2 minutes

I just reflashed the whole ROM to fix it.

Did you do a full wipe while on 4.2 and then just reflash the ROM and gapps or just he ROM?

you dont have to do a full wipe for this procedure. simply wipe cache and dalvik the flash the rom and gapps. this will replace the (rom) packaged camera that has been removed. you have to flash gapps when you flash your rom. thats the only reason you're even flashing it at this moment.

Accident

I accidentally deleted the download file on my phone from titanium backup now i cant go on android market plus also whenn i start up my phone i get something like a gapp error

Deleting the download folder shouldn't effect the ability to open/use the play store.
The only thing I could think of that should fix the issue, is to do a full wipe and eflash the ROM (and gapps if required for the ROM you are using).

Or try to just reflash gapps first.

I think he deleted the download apk which is an essential system component. If reflashing gapp doesn't work, I would suggest reflashing the ROM.

Reflash the rom wothout wiping, then flash gapps. It won't delete anything of yours

i have stockorama...I'm sorry I'm new to this so I would have to go into the zip and find the gapp folder then flash it???

The ROM and gapps are two separate zips. Flash the ROM first,then gapps package.

There are no gapps zip for touchwiz ROMs, the apps are already included in the ROM.
Do a full wipe and reflash the ROM.
You could just wipe cache and dalvik cache, but I would recommend just doing a full wipe and starting over to avoid further issues.

+1 didn't think about it being a two ROM. Been on aosp for so long. Lil. Yeah always nice to start fresh and clean, especially after something goes awry.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium

none of that worked =( luckily i had a backup of my phone before stockorama but now when n i try to readd stockorama doesnt work or if i do get it to work google play store doesnt work =(

also it just reboots into recovery each time but also during the installer it doesnt download any google apps

Touchwiz comes with the playstore and other samsung apps. You flash gapps when you are using an aosp based rom like jellybean. If reflashing the Stockoroma rom does not help my only suggestion is to download stock rom and firmware and then from there reflash the Stockorama rom. I'm pretty sure there is an easier solution to this but that is what I would try.

Brick on 6.2.B.1.96 LT26i while flashing custom ROMs

I have a 6.2.B.1.96 build LT26i Xperia S.
I rooted my phone using DoomLord and the recovery using cray_Doze methods.
Following ROM instructions and a myriad of other combos like formatting phone, wiping cache, dalvik cache, applying permissions, formatting /system etc. my phone gets bricked after I select reboot system or power off in the recovery menu.
After I press the. power button, it vibrates once and nothing shows up on the screen. Only way to get the phone running was to flash a stock ftf using FlashTool
I've tried multiple ROMs, including CM, SlimBean and PacMan, all of them yield the same result.
Is there anyway I can fix the problem?

did you unlock your bootloader?

Nope, I don't get any errors.
So you wipe system dalvik cache and data, flash the rom, and what do you do before and after gapps?

You're sure that you did it in the order specified?
Format /system
Wipe dalvik
Wipe cache
Wipe data
Right?

i dont realy always do it in that order, it just depends on how i remember it , sometimes i forget to wipe system, before flashing rom
Well check this
Make sure zip isnt corrupted, copying to your device can corrupt sometimes
ALSO does it do it with all ROMS?, if yes then i generaly cant help you now :/
