My phone is a GT-N7100, currently running JellyKatv4. I'm on MJ5 bootloader and have TWRP recovery (the latest one). Last night I wanted to try a non TW rom, so I downloaded 4 different roms (AOSB, Cyanogen, Slim and SOKP) to try. Wiped cache, dalvik cache, system, data, format internal storage, flashed the first one, got the "successfully installed" message, again cleared cache/dalvik cache, rebooted, nothing. Phone got stuck on roms logo. Left it for 10 minutes, still nothing. Rebooted, repeated the procedure, flashed another of the above roms, "successfully installed" message, nothing, stuck again at the roms logo. This happened to every single one of them!! What am I missing here;! Where is the catch;! Thanks in advance!

That's really unsual,only thing I can suggest is switch your recoveries to a previous TWRP perhaps 2.7.0 or 2.7.0.2 and flash the AOSP rom.

I have seen a few people with this problem on other ROMs such as the DN3 recently, also happened to me on one of the weekly build 5 SlimKAT releases.

The fix for 95% of the people so far has been to
do the wipe of system, cache and Dalvik
flash rom and gapps
reboot, if it hangs, boot back into recovery and dirty flash the rom again

Thanks for the replies! My first attempt was with TWRP v 2.6.3.2, got stuck to roms logo as I described, after that I flashed the newest TWRP 2.7.2.1, got stuck again. Do you suggest to go to a previous than v.2.6.3.2 release?
I'll try what fatboyinlycra suggested and I'll report back.

No success.. I tried flashing and dirtyflashing, the same result always, gets stuck on roms logo. I even moved the files to the internal storage, through TWRP file manager and flashed from there, still the same.. Any other suggestion?

you are on an old version of TWRP, suggest you use the new one - download from here

The only other question I have to ask you is, you are downloading the right ROM for your phone? not an N7105 or other variant by mistake?

Thanks for the reply, but if u see my second post I've tried with the latest version of TWRP (2.7.2.1) and it didn't work. I've already tried 8 different roms (non TW), stuck on all of them in roms logo. I'm very frustrated right now, don't have a clue what's happening.

Try format internal memory and all the partitions and then flash AOSP ROM, after that try flash custom kernel.
