try resetting the device to factory using twrp recovery. I had this happen once and resetting the device worked.

I did factory reset in twrp, upon restart I get the welcome screen, language setup, I choose en us, press the continue button, the I get the error message: unfortunately, setup wizard has stopped. I can't seem to bypass this.
any thoughts?

that's what I had previously, I just followed a video guide ad literam.
I guess I shall update the recovery as even now, after clean rom install still unstable: for instance the wi-fi toggle in settings refused to work after a few hours of idle time, a reboot solved it.

cwm 10.1?? Think you may be confused with the CM 10.1 rom. There is no such version for CWM recovery but if you still face issues there even on the latest version then try moving to the latest TWRP and it should run through fine.

CWM and TWRP are separate recoveries man.. Flashing one will overwrite the other. Just choose which one you want.

TWRP is always recommended but it's all about personal preference. If you want my opinion I think TWRP is indeed better. It's got a much better UI and a lot easier to navigate, not to mention it's all touchscreen based.

Ok well this will be for my Samsung galaxy s3, so I just uninstall cwm and the install twrp?

Keep in mind that nandroids are recovery dependant so your current CWM backups will not be compatible with TWRP and same vice versa. If you're worried abput losing your backups what you could do is restore any CWM backup then flash TWRP and backup that ROM you had restored over to TWRP. You can do the same to all your CWM backups if you have any more but that'll take you quite a bit of time to do lol.

No need to uninstall. Like I said, just flash TWRP through Goomanager and it'll overwrite your current recovery.

I have the same issue
Hi I also tried to install PACMan rom in Galaxy R through TWRP latest version. It says
1. No cheksum files found.
2. Assert failed.
Then some conditions are being checked to identify the device name. That's why the assertion failed.

did you flash this 4.1.2 firmware to it or is that stock/how it was shipped? when did it start doing this?
. It was formally running JB4.1.1 then I downloaded the rom and upgraded it. I flashed it with odin.
I noticed the error when I unlocked and rooted it. But then I thought it was one of the downside of rooting

you should really be searching around in the international section if you are using an i9300.
if you have the correct ROM/firmware for your device, you could booting into recovery and wiping data/cache. then reflash the firmware, boot into recovery again and perform the 2 wipes again.

[Q] Stuck on Google play edition rom

So I originally had a the touch wiz with T-Mobile and then I installed the Google play edition and ran it through the recovery. But I don't really like how the Google play works so I tried to reformat it and then it bricked (just stayed on the Samsung galaxy s4 start up).. So I tried to put other things like eclipse touchwiz but that made my phone stuck on the start up and made it shut down with a 3 sec vibration.. Only the google play edition works so far... It also help fix the bricks. So please help me try to get it back to the original touch wiz!
If nothing seems to work by flashing, then the only solution is to use Odin to restore your phone back to factory settings.

Out of curiosity - Did you try to restore your stock ROM back up?
I would also check the ROM thread if anyone else had similar issue and then go from there.

Htc One M8 How to stop update?

I don't want to upgrade to lollipop and I've frozen the updater app, but I still get these terrible popups that ask me to update. I've rooted, s-offed, installed twrp, and completely modded the system, so there's no way the update would work anyway. If anyone has a way to get rid of these popups, please help.

Yes. Flash a custom ROM. There are several that are very near stock (I recommend MaximusHD). Being on the stock ROM is what is prompting you to update via OTA.

Pardon?
I would love to try a custom rom but the htc One M8 I'm asking about is my dad's and he was reluctant to even let me do what I've done so far. I need a stock solution. Would doing the update and letting it fail keep the pop-up out of my hair for a while? Is there an activity I can freeze in some system app from Rom Toolbox or something?

No. It won't.
Tell your Dad not to worry.
Since you are still running the stock ROM, go to settings > about > more, and post what it says next to build number.
The build number for me wasn't exactly where you said but that's ok. On a side note it really sucks that you can't copy things like build number right from the settings.

Sorry fat thumb.
I've frozen all the apps mentioned but after a reboot the problem persists. If I flashed a stock rom would it go away?
Sent from my HTC6525LVW using XDA Free mobile app
Try use a root explorer to rename those two apks to .bak then reboot.
CheckinProvider.apk --> CheckinProvider.bak
updater.apk --> updater.bak
That's how I do it.
Sorry I wasn't specific, but what I meant by freeze was that I renamed them to .app. This didn't fix anything though.

Then the software updates tab is gone, right ?
Also try change this in build.prop
ro.config.htc.enableCOTA=1
to
ro.config.htc.enableCOTA=0
Other than this, no more idea.
I'm very confused. What update tab exactly are you referring to, and I don't even have that line in my build.prop according to Rom Toolbox.
Sent from my HTC6525LVW using XDA Free mobile app
I mean when you go to settings - about - you don't see software updates on top after you froze those apks.
I'm outside and replying you on mobile. Can't attach a screenshot.
Can you attach here your build.prop then I'll check it later when I'm home
(in next two hours)
I don't see anything about an update in About but I don't remember seeing one earlier either. Either way an update button is not what is annoying. The pop-up is my only concern. My dad won't update android manually and it would fail anyway but a phone that bullies it's user ever few minutes to update is unbearable. Is there an easy way to upload a file here from my phone without linking to a Google Drive file?
Sent from my HTC6525LVW using XDA Free mobile app
You don't see that because you already froze the apks.
I never attach anything from phone, only from PC. Just zip the build.prop and attach here, no need dropbox or gdrive.
