"Unfortunately Setup Wizard has stopped working" - after trying to install Gapps
So I've successfully managed to get the current CM nightly on my S2, after a few trials and tribulations.
I'd left my phone alone for a bit, all working fine.
Then I decide to get it sorted properly, and install the Google Apps.
Googling told me to use the 20120429 version. So I downloaded that (using the phone's browser), went into CWM and installed it. No joy.
Silly me, I didn't reset + clear cache. So I did that. Still no joy.
So now I've re-installed CM and done a reset + clear cache.
And still I'm stuck looking at the 'setup wizard stopped working' messages, in an endless soul-destroying loop
What can I do?
Would re-installing a stock rom and then re-rooting do the trick?
I can't get Odin to connect, and so I've copied the zipped 4.0.3 rom into the internal SD card, but CWM fails (is it because it has a .dll file alongside the .tar?)
I'm wishing I'd left the phone alone now

What version of CyanogenMod are we talking about here? You need to be more specific.

Right, maybe I found the cause of the problem - I've installed cm-10.1-20130125-NIGHTLY-i9100 but when I wanted to find out which version of Gapps I needed I couldn't be sure what it was so I decided to just find the original download page again. But somehow I managed to find this page http://get.cm/?device=galaxys2 (a rather too easy mistake to make?) ...which has version 9! So I've tried to install the wrong Gapps file

I thought you might have! I'm not sure whether a simple flash of the correct gapps file will solve your problem or whether you will need to wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache, reinstall the CM10.1 nightly and then flash the correct gapps file which can be found here: http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20121212-signed.zip
Try just wiping your cache and dalvik cache in recovery and flashing the new gapps file I linked, if the flashing process doesn't last for atleast 20 seconds, then you may have to carry out the steps I listed above for a complete reinstall.

Thanks but I've now tried the reset / wipes / reinstalls multiple times to no avail. And now when I connect my phone to my pc to try to put the correct gapps zip on there, Windows Explorer is only showing a few of the folders on Internal Storage. The stuff that I've already got at root isn't showing. Have I knackered my phone?
I'm going to have to leave it til the morning - the battery is nearly empty.
Edit: Damn, I couldn't get to sleep without fixing it first, and luckily I did: I rebooted my pc, and the explorer eventually did show the contents ok (just very slowly). I dragged the zip in, installed it with CWM and *huzzah* it's working! The only odd thing is the camera has disappeared from the applications...
I can wait until tomorrow to work that out.
Thanks for your help

That's strange. I recently flashed a wrong gapps file and it led to some things not working, especially the Play Store. I tried just wiping the cache and dalvik cache and flashing, but that didn't work. So I did a wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache, reflashed the ROM and then flashed gapps. I think I may have wiped the cache and dalvik cache once more for good luck, and then repaired permissions in the advanced section of recovery. Phone booted up fine and all apps worked perfectly. I doubt the phone is knackered, perhaps try and different ROM just to make sure it boots fine, and then try flash CM10.1 again. Good luck
Samsung Galaxy s2 CM10 trouble Setup Wizard has stopped working
Im from Asia and I guess Samsung s2 int’l version has different features. I already updated my firmware to JB 4.1.2 (leaked) and since I am not satisfied with it,I rooted it and installed siyah as well as cm10 + gapps from XDA links. I followed everything according to the posts and vids.The problem is that after rebooting and CM start up showed up,the next prompt was UNFORTUNATELY,SET UP WIZARD HAS STOPPED WORKING. What’s wrong? I have tried 6x times and no one worked correctly. HELP me!
I was under the same problem few days ago...
flashed 4.2.2 gapps on 4.1.2..
and succumbed to 'unfortunately setup wizard has stopped' error, until i flashed the respective 4.2.2 gapps.
but sadly it ate away my internal memory (cant help )
So the point is
just flash the respective gapps
and then the ROM again
Hi I just installed cyangenmod and it works but setup wizard is crashing and I don't know how to fix this my phone its pretty much unusable. Need help urgently!
The key is to wipe regular cache partition after installing Gapp zip! :]
I think you have the key. I get my cm10.1.5 and I flashed a realy slim gapps (11mb), but after that I didn't wipe cache and dalvik. So the phone didn't woke up because it get stucked in the wizzard setup. So I have to do as u said. And like the other said, reinstall the rom and then the gapps.

sir,
i have samsung galaxy star GT-S5282 model but i am unabble to start the Device because of error of unfortunately samsung setup wizard has stoppeed
I've bought my Redmi Note 2 one month ago: everything worked fine for the first 3 weekes, but in the last few days one bug came out. Every time I power off the phone it keeps rebooting showing the boot logo (mi.com) for few seconds: I have to pull of the battery to normally power off the phone.
When the phone is one there are no problems: everuthing works fine, no reboot.
I've installed all the lates xiaomi.eu weekly rom (now I'm on 5.10.22) but the problem persists... I've also tried the official stable rom (miui 6 6.7.11) but nothing changed...
What can I do? Is it a software problem or maybe hardware?
Hi, it seems that during shutdown something goes wrong and the phone reboot (like bsod restart in Windows)
So this must be a software problem. Please flash TWRP recovery from Fastboot and reinstall latest ZIP from Xiaomi.eu
(Remember to wipe data - dalvik and also system first)
Good luck

thanks jack 21!
I've already installed twrp from fastboot and installed several zip from xiaomi.eu and en.miui.com but the shutdown-reboot bug persists...
do I have to install a rom from fastboot... or do I have to wipe something (boot.img..?) from fastboot?
You have to wipe system, dalvik, cache
Then reinstall the zip file
Please for now don't touch boot because we don't know what may happen

So.... installed twrp via fastboot; wiped everythin, installed latest xiaomi.eu zip; rebooted phone --> shutdown bug again..
p.s. even power off from recovery has the loop reboot bug..
Mmm don't know what to do in this case [emoji24]
I'll try installing other roms like smiui or AOSP... and if I don't find a solution maybe I'll send back my phone for assistance..
I'm asking this because I have some strange problems with these ROM's but I think it's my mistake.
First rom that i tried was Ressurection Remix. Before that i was on Stock 7.1.2 EU Rom.
I've done these steps on Linux Fedora using fastboot
1. Enabled USB Debugging and OEM Unlock in Developer Menu in the phone
2. Unlocked Bootloader
3. Flashed latest TWRP for Moto Z
4. Booted into TWRP Recovery and connected phone with linux fedora via usb
5. Drag and drop RR-Rom and Gapps and Wiped Cache, Dalvik
6. Flashed RR and then Gapps
7. Wipe Cache Dalvik
8. Reboot
9. On the first boot i choose restore everything from cloud
After that the rr was running very well for 4 day, but suddenly i got some triangle icon on the taskbar (like some error).
It says that I have been logged out from google and i must login again. I tried that but nothing happens.
So i tried that with other rom (exilium os)
That was worse. On the first startup just at the lockscreen, it restarted itself. And that was it, it just keeps restarting every time.
So i tried to flash again RR, because i really like this rom.
After that on the first setup, it restarted itself couple of times.
Suddenly some errors starting to appear "google framework closed" "google .... gmail closed" and everything from google crashed.
So i tried flashing the same for the third time.
But this time in TWRP I went to Advanced Wipe, and wiped everything Data, system, internal storage.... everything except usb-otg.
Now the ROM is running really nice. I hope for the long time )
Did i make the mistake restoring everything from google cloud?
Because i had on some roms, 2 Calculator apps, 3 sms apps. (Maybe the leftover from other ROM, stock maybe).
I assume that I wiped simply everything except bootloader and recovery. Now is working fine. (I think)
My device is redmi note 4x (mido), I've tried lots of different custom roms, i'm installing these roms as the instructions say, but I always get some problems like camera crashing, default file browser crashing, corrupted package installer where you cannot install any app where it just says app not installed. Now I'm stuck without sim card and wifi working I currently have OrangeFox-R8.3-mido twrp
I tried roms like resurrection remix, lineageos, havoc os and all of them have some issues and other users don't experience these for some reason.
I tried to wipe literally everything possible in the twrp (maybe wiped too much?) with different combinations, format data, factory reset and also advanced wipe> and tick everything form here, then I install the firmware if the rom instruction says so > flash rom without wiping cache, flash newest open gapps arm64 usually 9.0; nano and then hit the reboot and usually bit laggy(and sometimes crashy) google setup pop ups, and if it doesn't fail on the setup I get some of the problems I talked before. Anyone also had problems like these?:crying::crying:
The only wrong thing that I see in twrp is
Code:
mount: failed to mount /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/sec at /firmware: Invalid argument
it's written with white text(not red as usual errors)
I prefer u to wipe everything. And switch to orangefox r9 and wipe everything and then install any trble rom. See if thus works

I updated the orangefox and it didn't help, tried to download the normal twrp from https://dl.twrp.me/mido/ and it still doesn't work,
It doesn't see my sim card, wifi during settings and I can't even turn on the bluetooth
I load up YouTube app, and the app loads up, but no content.
I tried Lineage with gaaps and pixel experience where you don't need gaaps flashed.
I cleared cache, Dalvik, cache of the app, uninstall and reinstall app. It's just odd the same issue persists with multiple roms.
Plz explain/help?
Hi i av the same problem did you find a solution to fix this thanks
Greetings. Thank you for posting your issue. I've had the same issue recently.
My problem was that the persist partition got wiped for some random reason. This seems to be a common issue on this device, and most likely you're facing the same problem. For me, apart from YouTube, all the sensors of the device stopped working as well (auto-rotation for example).
To fix this do the following:
1) Make sure you're using the latest TWRP from HavocOS (here)
2) Flash MIUI v10. I used MIUI v10.3.1 from xiaomi.eu (here), but you can use whichever you want, without any trouble.
3) Boot the device. Let it load... then back to recovery. Wipe System, Data, Dalvik and Cache
4) Flash the ROM you want to use
