Hello everyone,
This is what is happening to me. I was trying to flash Miroslav's Cyanogenmod 11 RC2 with Philz Touch 6.07.9, but none of the recomended methods worked for me, I just got stuck on lg logo bootloop - I really want this rom but it is hard as f**k to flash -. So I tried to go back to CM 10.2.1 and got the "Status 7" error. Very frustrated, I finally used my stock recovery image and it worked fine.
From this point, i was recovering my apps and data using titanium back up and when it finished, a notification asked if I wanted the official system update. I refused it and proceded to reboot. Now the phone boots instantly to recovery mode and show the purple screen of Philz touch. First I wiped cache and dalvik and got the same bootloop. Then I wiped cache, dalvik and factory reset and got the same bootloop. Finally, I formated system, factory reset, wiped cache, wiped dalvik and flashed again my recovery image, and got again the recovery mode bootloop.
Any Ideas? Thank you for your help.
Best regards.
EDIT: I must clarify that when I flash my recovery image, it ALWAYS get suck on a part that says something like "installing android security". I have to press power button 10 seconds to restart but it boots normaly in the stock rom.

When in vain , unbrick your phone again using unbricking guide and use CWM , not all guide is working for the same type of phone . No need to wipe system clean cache watevr **** you were told unless recommended by developer and just factory reset then flash the rom

Thanks for the answer and the advice about factory reset. Yes, I had to unbrick my phone and by the way, still could not install miroslav's cm11 RC3 using Philz touch 6.19.3.
But I have another issue: I successfully got back to CM 10.2.1 but after I restored my apps using Titanium Backup, I rebooted the phone and got stuck on CM logo for half hour. I wiped dalvik and got the same result. Then wiped cache and dalvik and still stuck. What should I do? Flash again the rom? The restored data is from CM 10.2.1 so I don't see any problem....

check again what you restore, user apps will have no problem to restore but system apps will cause incompatibility to the rom and crash it

The phone is good now, I restored the stock rom and from there I flashed CM 10.2.1 just making a factory reset. Plus I flashed adreno drivers and gapps. Once it booted, I restored my apps without sistem data and now the phone works properly.
Thank you Mr.201

Glad it worked, make sure you untick 'system' in filter in titanium backup so that you can only see your user apps .
I flashed a rom and then this problem started happening since. My phone tries to go to the samsung boot animation screen but never goes through it, it vibrates and then reboot, i tried installing stock rom, etc, i can now go to recovery and download mode.
You might need a jtag
But if i can go through recovery and download mode, maybe there is something i could do to fix this issue?

I Can install firmware through download mode.!""
Me too, i tried installing stock firmware and all that. Even i am able to use the aroma filemanager from recovery, to see all my files, and when i delete system, preload, data, cache, etc i can see that in fact the device deletes them correctly.
Sorry I miss understand, you can go in download and recovery, my bad.
Have you tried factory reset, Flash original firmware, factory reset, let it boot
What was your original firmware which file(s) did you use?
When the thing you said happened i went on the store and Luckly they replaced my phone. Your phone probably ruined thats what happens when you play with it:cyclops:
Yeah i know that there are risks when you install another roms and such. I've read that it can corrupt your internal sd card, maybe that is what happened to me? because i tried installing different firmwares, kernels, recoveries, wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, wipe system, wipe preload, etc, even i tried installing boot animations, and it stucks at the boot animation screen samsung galaxy, it tries to load but then it vibrates and restart like a loop.
I am now with the russian 4.4.2 rom, and yes i know that i cannot downgrade because of the bootloader version. But i tried installing modified roms with zip (like cm 11) in recovery, and it installs correctly without errors, the problem is with the bootloop.
I have tried the roms below:
Pac-rom
LiquidSmooth
CyanogenMod 12.1
CyanogenMod 11
And the result is it always gets stuck at boot where the boot animation continues infinitely. I have gave it about 30 minutes to boot.
With LiquidSmooth I was able to run logcat, but CM12.1 I am not able to.
I have tried resetting system, data, caches in twrp and using the reset for new rom in philz.
I have tried flashing with both TWRP and Philz.
I am using the latest Philz and TWRP.
The only thing that has worked for me is samsung stock ROM, but I do not like the stock ROM.
Are there SPH-L900 phones you have to do something different?
Is there a way to get boot logs from CM12?
Am I doing something wrong?
See attachment from LiquidSmooth.

Hi,
I see that you got it working by using that thread, but what exactly did you flash from it? I had it working with CM12.1 but decided to flash the recovery from CM for my phone and it ruined the installation. Tried re-flashing with the latest nightly to get stuck in the CM infinite boot, returned to stock (that worked fine) flashed TWRP and CWM 6.0.4.3 Touch, re-did everything again with both, but cant go past the infinite boot. This happened the last time too, but it started working out of nowhere so I continued patching until I flashed "cm-12.1-20150828-NIGHTLY-l900-recovery.img". Now it doesn't boot again and redoing what I did the last time is not working (Wiping Cache, Dalvik...)
Thanks

Followed this guide from some post I found after reading for 8 hours, LOL. Don't remember who it is from... It's for the Cyanide ROM but worked perfect for CM12.1 latest nightly with the latest GAPPs
1.) revert everything to stock
Using Odin3 v3.09 I first flashed this: L900VPUCNE2_L900SPTCNE2_SPR.zip
2.) Reboot and verify it's not bricked, then use ODIN to flash Philz philz_touch_6.15.4-l900.tar.md5
3.) Reboot into Philz recovery and follow these steps exactly
1. Mounts and Storage
Format / system
Format / cache
Format / data
Format / data and /data /media (/sdcard)
(note this isn't the EXTERNAL sdcard, on to which I had loaded the ROM, Shift and gapps)
2. Power Options > reboot recovery
3. Wipe cache partition
4. Advanced > Wipe dalvik cache
5. Wipe data / factory reset > Wipe data / factory reset
6. Wipe data / factory reset > clean and install new ROM
At one point Philz asked me if I wanted to root and I said yes.
3.) Flash (from the external sdcard) the ROM (Tablet style ROM found in OP "5.0.2-RC-7.1-tablet"), Then flash Shift (Shift-LP-4.3 other versions DID NOT WORK), then flash gapps (GApps-5.0.2-20150315-signed NO OTHER VERSION WOULD FLASH, got Error 20 every time) Here's the
After everything was flashed I rebooted and got stuck at boot animation AGAIN, so I rebooted into recovery and wiped cache. Just cache, not dalvik or user data, rebooted, and it worked.
Installed Netflix from appstore, when I logged in to netflix it asked me to update google play services (I've seen it do this on other devices as well). Updated google play services and went back to Netflix, chose a random show and tapped on it, stuck at "loading" screen. Rebooted phone, tried netflix again and it works.
This was a tough one! But it's working now and I've saved all these files in one place incase it bricks again. Now to install the Note 3/4 style faux-stitched-leather back cover I got off Amazon.
Thanks all!
Hi everyone,
Yesterday I was trying to upgrade my CM 13 to 14 and I got stuck. It seems that ROMs will run normally on my device, but when I try to run GApps (both during first set-up or after), my phone reboots.
This is what I did, through TWRP:
- boot and system backup (which I can't get to restore !! );
- wiped data, storage, system, dalvik, cache and internal storage;
- flashed new modem and bootloader (which don't seem to give any problem);
- flashed CM 14 and GApps.
Whether I try to flash any other ROM or other GApps packages, these fail and my phone reboots. While I was trying some solutions, I found out an error during wipe: unable to mount storage. Maybe apps can't access storage, that's why it gets to reboot. But why anyway? Is there some way to solve this? I tried going back to stock and do everything, but I can't get LGUpdater to flash.
Thanks in advance
I solved this by flashing this ROM, wiping cache and dalvik, and then flashing back the CM ROM I wanted.
Hey guys,
Okay so long story short, i went through a lot of reinstalling magisk modules and battery twrp mods, one time the reboot took longer than usual, so i wiped caches and rebooted and its fixed. Later on, i decided to uninstall a magisk module, so i rebooted, and now im stuck.
Thats not the problem tho, the huge problem is that twrp is failing to wipe partitions, it says that partitions are successfully wiped, but theyre not. Because of this issue i cant reflash my rom and fix the problem.
I tried rebooting from twrp and it booted, but then it immediately reboots again and its back to bootlooping.
I tried changing to a different twrp, the twrp install is successfull, but still not able to wipe partitions.
I alr tried reflashing my rom, but no luck, i need to wipe my partitions but my phone just cant do it,
Pls help
Update
Now it says error creating f stab everytime i wipe or install roms
