HELP! I think I messed up :( CM10 Nightly - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Ok, So I went back to Gingerbread because I wanted to do a "clean install" rerooted my phone and decided to try out the latest (20130103) Nightly CM10.
I flashed the rom first, because im an idiot noob.
ended up flashing to JediX which I already had on my phone so i could get back to download mode.
Downloaded the Radio and Gapps.
Followed the wiping procedure on the TeamChopsticks site
When I rebooted I got the Blue CM circle, its been going on for 20 mins.
What do I do to get this working?
I am ashamed. :cyclops:

what you should try to do is to into recovery mode
then factory wipe also wipe dalvik cache
after that flash your radio first
then flash your rom
then flash the gapps
after that reboot and it should take a while the first time
if it freezes try taking out the battery and reboot it again

How do I get the latest CWM?
the download links on http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager seem to be messed up???

Have you tried twrp recovery? With that one you don't have to worry about using the darkside scripts. Just full wipe and flash the rom. If you have root, the goomanager app can install it for you.

If you have root access, the easiest way is to download an app called goomanager beta from the play store and install it from there. Open the app, press the menu button and hit "install open recovery script".

it does that sometimes on a radio flash, normally if you just use the darkside cache wipe and reboot it will kick through just fine. I've encountered that playing with radios on my device

what rom r u on?
If you did this on a stock/touchwhiz rom, your best bet is wiping data/starting over. GAPPS is only for CM10/9/AOSP type of roms without it built in.
Go to recovery mode
Backup ur rom
Rest to factory/delete data
Delete cash
Flash the latest rom u installed on ur phone
Stay in recovery and flash the gapps zipped file (download it from goo manager)
Reboot ur phone

Any way to extract info out of CWM backups? lol

[Q] First attempt at custom ROM --> [ROM][JB] All Star Rom v6

Happy New Year
First attempt at custom ROM, heard great things about All Star Rom - going straight for the v6! Unless told not to ... LOL
Have a rooted device,with latest TWRP recovery 2.3.3.1-hercules .tar flashed.
Have v6 and All-Star 4.2 custom gapps downloaded.
Copy of instructions for reference sake:
TWRP recovery recommended!
- wipe data
- wipe system
-(Use Darkside Super wipe if still on cwm 5.0.2.7 or below)
- flash rom
- flash All-Star 4.2 gapps
- wipe cache/ dalvik cache.
- reboot and wait 10 mins
- reboot and wait 1 minute
- Grant Superuser permissions for Switchme
- set up device.
- Initiate the CPU sleeper app
- (Highly Recommended) ENJOY!
Booting into TWRP recovery,
I don't specifically have a "wipe data" option, I want to be very thorough here.
Under "Wipe" I have Cache, Dalvik Cache, Factory Reset, ... and System.
Quick answer? Thanks.
Hey, happy new years justaguy705. Nice to see you asking questions again.
To answer your question, the option where you see "Factory Reset" is the exact same as "Wipe data". Cheers!

I keep getting "Sorry, you are limited to 8 thanks per day" so thanks! I hope you'll enjoy the All-Star ROM, feel free to ask questions in the Development section, as you'll get quicker responses there. Once again, good luck on your ROM flashing journey, ahaha.

Unless you have a recovery system already. You will need a computer to install a recovery system such as TWRP 2.3.3.0 to your phone through Odin (PC application).
Yes it is. I rarely use or never use computer now.

Doesn't being rooted means he rooted himself via a recovery, unless he flashed stock rom again. In which it would wipe his recovery.

He may have a custom recovery file, but from what I know to install the latest and recommended TWRP recovery you would need to have a computer to flash it. But you are free to explain to him with your steps to flashing without a computer.

Make sure your phone is off and not connected to a USB cable. Press and hold the "volume up/volume down" keys and then press the power button until you feel a vibrate and the screen turns on. After that you should be in recovery mode and it will say the version you are using. If you have a CWM recovery version greater than 6.0 you should be able to flash a ROM through your phone.
Yeah mines only 5.0.2.6 i need a computer to upgrade?

Yes, to flash most of the newer ROMs for our phone it is recommended to use the latest CWM or TWRP recovery for our phones.

You could use Mobile Odin to flash TWRP or CWM but Mobile Odin doesn't have all the features that regular Odin does.

To flash TWRP on to your phone and you still do not have access to a computer, you can try using the Mobile Odin app on the Play store as android88 had mentioned above (however, the app is around $5.00 if you're willing to purchase it). Otherwise, flashing the recovery system through Odin using a computer is the way to do it.

What recovery and verision of it are you using? for 4.3+ roms you need CWM 6.0.3.7+ or TWRP 2.6.1.0
I´m also having this problem. I can't flash any ROM. I went back to stock and tried again with those versions of recovery but nothing.

ROM: United Basics v4.0
RECOVERY: TWRP 2.6.3.1
