CM10.1 to Stock+ -> phone not starting?

[Guest vexa]

I just wiped CM10.1 from my phone and tried to install Stock+, and now the phone is stuck on boot screen, tried to pull of battery + do the process again on CWM but it's still stuck. Any sugestions? Do I need to wipe something else? Help would be apreciated, ty :).

[Guest fr0do]

What do you mean by 'wipe'?

[Guest vexa]

Sorry, I mean Wipe data/fact. reset :)

[Guest PCTechRoss]

wipe the other stuff to like dalvic cache and battery stats etc

[Guest vexa]

EDIT2: Still no luck, the thing is that the ROM installs too fast, like 5sec fast. I got the CM CWM.

Managed to get CM10.1 on the phone, but I still want to go back to ICS Stock +, can anyone help?

[Guest fr0do]

Sounds like a bad download

[Guest vexa]

Actually I tried with 2 downloads, I'll try to download the ROM with Chrome, lol. So I guess I should be able to downgrade from JB 4.2.2 (CM) to ICS 4.0.3 (Stock+) just by the standard wipe/install zip from sd?

[Guest vexa]

Re-re-re downloaded it, I'm pretty sure it's not because the download.

[Guest kyan31]

What stuff are you actually wiping?

[Guest vexa]

Data, Dalvik cache, battery stats.

[Guest hugocard]

are you instaling the right zip? :ph34r:

[Guest vexa]

I installed alot of custom ROMs, so I think I know how to install it, apparently only CM10.1 works right now on my device, tried to flash FirefoxOS and it doesn't work, this is odd.

[Guest mattia107]

Try download via pc, copy into sd and install

[Guest vexa]

Well, actually, that's what I've done til now :\

[Guest GaryM30]

If it tries installing too fast, My guess would be you have the wrong version of CWM. Try using recovery-clockwork-hybrid-6.0.2.7-u8815-R4.

[Guest hugocard]

or try with these instead of cwm: http://www.modaco.com/topic/353879-team-win-recovery-for-huawei-u8815ascend-g-300/

Yeah, it sounds like a CWM problem to me too. If it is flashing in seconds then I'd bet that /system isn't being mounted correctly before the flash. Try manually unmounting and then re-mounting /system before doing the flash and if you still have issues just install TWRP recovery and that will probably work first time.

Edit: if you do use TWRP you want this version here the link posted above is for a much older (and less reliable) version.

TWRP for the win :D

[Guest vexa]

Instalation failing with TWRP

Error flashing zip '/sdcard/zzROM/StockPlus-B96

EDIT: Trying to zip TWRP 2.4.4.0, I got 2.1.2 atm.

Doesn't work with TWRP 2.4.4.0 . Same thing, rom flashes too quickly, this is getting frustrating >.<.

It looks like the problem is present only in Stock Plus, I managed to install Lightning ROM, this is very odd. Cyda, do you have any idea?

[Guest Cyda]

Cyda, do you have any idea?

Must be your download. The rom has been downloaded and installed far too many times for there to be any issues with the zip itself.

[Guest vexa]

I'll try tomorrow againt, the strange thing is that I downloaded it about 5 times and tried all the zips, will keep you updated! :)

[Guest blademaster123]

Try wipe data\factory reset then wipe cache partition then dalvik cache and format system, I had something similar from CM9 to infusion

[Guest irishpancake]

Sorry OP.... You check md5 checksums??

On your device??

Best always to use AFV

Devs always give checksum... and it is always best to check before flash.

Or on your PC use free md5 checker
