[Q] (HELP) Rom Installation aborted on my S3 international i9300 - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My Galaxy S3 i9300 international version got bricked, so I find many solutions here and all was succesful when I install Galaxy S5 sensation. And now my problem is I can't install any other Roms after it, it goes aborted again and again. I used TWRP and even ODIN but nothings happen. So help me I don't know the problem is, I already downloaded two Roms, the Blekota Note 4 and Lollipop for galaxy S3 i9300 and I really want to install the Blekota but was not success at all though I followed the Instruction carefully. Solution please?

hi,
Download a stock rom 4.4 or 4.3 and flash the three files with odin. In the forum you can find tuto to flash a proper base with odin. After root the rom and flash CWM with odin. Then you can flash blekota Note 4 rom with CWM.

Hi sorry to point out a couple of things but the op may get confused by your post. First thing there are no stock 4.4 roms that you can flash with Odin the highest version is 4.3. Also if the op is planning to flash a custom rom after returning to stock with Odin then he does not need to root he can just flash a custom recovery like Cwm do a full wipe then flash the custom rom. (The reason why is because root is included in all custom roms). Also the op say's Odin is not working anyway
To the op what kind of error is Odin giving you?.Also make sure you are flashing a official stock rom with Odin .tar format not a zip file.

Hello! Thank you for the feedback, maybe with your idea i can find a solution. I am using Odin version 1.85 and 3.09 but the process stuck on "Nand Write" which I dunno what that means. The format is .tar. I even left it for an hour or two, but nothings happen and when I tried to reinstall the S5 sensation it was successful. I also full wiped data and cache and even deleted the so called Dalvik cahe as I followed the instruction of what I read here, but that does'nt help me after all. :'(

You could first try a "format" of System,Data,Preload,Dalvik etc (This is not a normal wipe) try using this script the Mega wipe version >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/general/tool-mega-wipesuper-wipefactory-t1832326 << you could have residue files left behind in preload etc.When using make sure you have a rom on ext sd card to flash because this wipes your System.
If that does not work you could also try the rescue firmware here >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30087735&postcount=6 << good luck.

try reinstall a stock rom, check if everythings is fine then reinstall CM9
Thnx for the quick response
I think the problem isn't cm9, when I was trying to install the from I couldn't boot to the cwm recovery because I forgot to root my device. Then I rooted my s3 with cf something root kit and then my signals were gone. I have the international version so my phone should be factory unlocked so I thought I should install cm anyway cuz that might solve the problem. But it didn't. I really like cyanogenmod and don't want to revert back to crappy touchwizz . The problem was there before installing cm9 but after rooting my phone.
Please any help. I really need to use my phone.
Thnx

You should reinstall everything from the scratch mate, so revert your device at stock (using odin), then flash the correct [email protected] kernel and finally if everything is working flash cm9.
Edit: if your device is locked i think you can unlock it easily, search in the forum you can find out everything you need for this.

i am a complete noob, i dont know how to revert to stock rom, stock recovery and unroot my device
Download original firmware for your phone from sammobiles and flash it using odin. If is good then root it again and flash cm9.

Okay,
I have downloaded my firmware file but i noticed that i need three tar files for the flashing precess through ODIN but i downloaded only 1 file *.tar.md5
no clue now what to do
Update: I tried to extract the file using splitfus but it didnt work.
Update 2: Okay now I have Installed my stock firmware and it seems to be working now.. But should I risk installing the CM9 again ?

- launch Odin
- load that ONE FILE on PDA section
- put your phone in download mode (volume down+home+power)
- connect the phone to computer, wait for drivers to be installed and ODIN to find your phone (you will see a message in Odin)
- click start
- don't touch the phone until it's done. It will boot alone
Also, it might be a good idea to wipe data / reset to factory before and after flash.
You could find all this info with google ....
On the topic, I have a similar issue. My phone was factory unlocked , and got locked after flashing latest stock firmware. Downgrading didn't solved anything. I am searching the forums right now, but it seems like all fixes are dated.
If anyone could point me in the right direction, it will be appreciated.
Thx
Hey rsndetre,
Thnx for the post, but sorry I already did that and it worked ..
Here are the method I used to get back my device back to normal and got my sim card working and again reinstalled cm9
1- Downloaded Toolkit from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1703488
2- Flashed Stock Boot Image
3- Flashed Stock Recovery Mode
4- Downloaded stock firmware from http://fus.nanzen.se/
5- Flashed stock firmware using Odin (your method above)
6- Rooted the device again (using odin and CF-Root-SGS3-v6.4)
7- Downloaded and placed cm9 and google apps package in SDCARD
8- Installed Rom Manager from Play Store.
9- Downloaded and Installed ClockWorkMod from rom manager and booted to recovery mode using RomManager
10- Then factory resetted, formatted the cache and installed the CM9 and GAPPS V11
Then my phone was good to go.
My phone is up and running, thanks rsndetre, Arsaw and TecQuality for your replies. I appreciate your time
Thanks

Problem installing new rom

Hello Everyone,
Was wondering if anyone can help me solve a problem regarding the ROM of my Galaxy S2.
I've had my phone for more than 18 months now and I remember having it rooted and the ROM changed last year.
The guy who helped modify my phone is no longer around and so I am making attempts to change the ROM myself.
The current ROM on my phone is called Litening ROM version 6.1 and it was a fantastic ROM. However, it's already very old and needs to be upgraded to the latest ones.
I've downloaded and tried to install 3 ROMs so far and nothing seems to work.
I wiped the cache partition clean and also did a factory data reset.
Now, whenever I access the downloaded ROM from my sdcard, it always ends up saying:
"E: Short write of /tmp/sideload/package.zip (No space left on device)"
What does this mean? My device has ample memory and I've deleted most of the files on the sdcard already to make even more space.
My device is also rooted - so I don't think rooting it again is needed.
Please see attached pictures.
I've tried several ROMs and I'm now on my last ROM which is the Omega ROM for Galaxy S2.
All ROMs do not install and the same error message always shows up during installation.
Hope you can recommend a good solution for this.
Regards.

Hi there. Sorry but I'm not familiar with CWM recovery. My phone is factory reset so I did not install any other program.
Is CWM recovery an app which can be downloaded?
I just saw the program CWM recovery on my friend's Galaxy S3 which has Omega ROM installed on it.
But my S2 with Litening ROM does not have this app.
Cheers.

Install it through recovery and it will replace it with CWM recovery (temporary).
Then flash your new rom through that.

[Q] [HELP] How can i fix boot loop Problem after flashing a Custom Rom, I9300?

Hey Guys
I came from Stock Rom, rooted my device and flash recovery. And when i come to install any custom rom my device get into a boot loop.
Fortunately I got a back up and every time a try a different custom rom and i can go back to stock.
Well i have tried with the following roms
CM10
AOKP
Slim Roms
Paranoid
Everytime i have tried any of these roms i do carefully everty step. Just exactly like the tutorial says. I've been done this before, installing custom rom in other device, like nexus s, gs3, gs2. Im familiar with those stuffs.
And i don´t think it has to do with some corrupted file when i download the base.
I have tried to reflash recovery and nothing.
Tried to change kernel, i changed to siyah and nothing. After i install custom rom , the device just show the logo of the rom and ask select language and bam!, there is the boop loop
I don´t know what else to do.
I have read something about clear nand with odin , but i dont see those options.
If anyone knows what to do, please let me know.
Thnks
Aditional Info:
Baseband: GT-I9300XXELLA
Kernel: Stock
Root with Odin3 v3.04 - CF-Auto-Root-m0-m0du-gti9300t.tar
International Version
4.1.2
Recovery 6.0.3.1
I Flash the Recovery with Rom Manager V5.5.2.3

That suggests a problem that is one of the following .
EXT SD card faulty
Custom rom download faulty
CWM recovery faulty.
user not following instructions .
Try flashing a Samsung Based custom rom .
jje
What do you mean boot loop is it actually restarting after boot and restating again ??
Yes. Exactly that's what i mean. It restart over and over again.
External sd card > i dont have one
Recovery > i tried with cwm and philz
Downloaded rom > i have tried download from the xda developer site and tried with different files, different roms
Im pretty sure i follow the instructions just the way it is

Hey jje, what is the purpose of flash a samsung based rom?
With this I understand that it will alow me to flash a custom rom after that, is that right?
Another question, how can i go back like all factory settings, i mean clear everything. I format internal sd, factory reset, do the wipes, fix permissions and once again try to install a custom rom but phone doesn't boot after show logo. Actually i install the same rom in another i9300 and everything's go fine, so the file is ok.

and then it booted into clockworkmod recovery 5.8..Foolishly i did a system backup..rebooted...surprised to find phone went into black screen after displaying a note logo with yellow triangle beneath..tried recovery from clockworkmod without hope but that didnt work as expected...

I recommend you not using Rom Manager. Have a look at PhilZ's thread for having a safe kernel and custom recovery to be able to backup and flash what you want.

Download a firmware from SamMobile and flash it with Odin then you will be able to install PhilZ and your CM rom (or another one )

Yes you can but the most important thing on N7000 is to have a SAFE kernel before wiping or flashing from recovery. (more details in the N7100 sections)
Here are the general instructions to flash a new custom rom:
1. Having root and a working custom recovery (updated)
2. Boot into recovery mode (VOL DOWN + POWER + HOME) then VOL UP to accept the warning.
3. Make a Nandroid backup and backup your EFS.
4. Full wipe: wipe data (factory reset), cache, dalvik and system. Recoveries are different. You may need to go to another menu to format the system partition.
5. Flash rom
6. Flash Gapps
7. Reboot normally

Install PhilZ recovery choose option in menu Wipe Data/Factory Reset then choose Clean to install a new rom this will wipe/format the correct files for you to flash your rom. (Make sure you have your rom on the ext sd card ready to flash! This will format your system partition so don't reboot untill you have immediately flashed the rom after wiping)..
Thanks fir your reply
I already did exactly like u said but the same result bootloop
Is there any rom or kernil to fkash before flashing this romSmartDroid AOSP V45.0?

No.. nothing special to flash before installing.. Are you on latest PhilZ recovery?
Can you install other roms? ( To see if your phone will install other roms)
Have you tried factory resetting after flashing? (To clear any data issues that are causing a bootloop)
Have you tried downloading the rom again? ( could be a bad download)
Have you tried flashing the rom booting up the phone then flashing the gapps.
Also post the exact method that you are using to install..
