Honor 5x restarting repeatedly after installing Cyanogenmod 13(Snapshot)

[swapnilVtiwari]

Hey there,

I'm having repeated restarts after installing Cyanogenmod 13 (Snapshot) on my honor 5x, let me put you through the steps I followed.

First I unlocked my bootloader using adb/fastboot.
then flashed custome recovery(TWRP)
rooted my phone using SuperSU from TWRP
placed CM 13 and open gApps zip files on SD card
rebooted in recovery mode(TWRP)
selected wipe and swipe
then click on install
selected CM 13 zip file from SD card
swipe to flash
after process completed
wipe Dalvik/cache
then click on install
selected gApps zip file
swipe to flash
and then reboot
then when the phone reboots my phone shows the default honor boot screen and then Cyanogenmod boot screen
and then the phone restarts with a vibration
and keeps on repeating the process untill I restore my TWRP backup


Also I tried only installing CM 13(No gApps-thought it might be interrupting the system) and reboot

and installing gApps and clearing cache/dalvik and then reboot

I tried it many times but still the same issue

Please help me

I Think you should only Wipe Dalvik/Cache after you install both The Rom and the Gapps... Just install at the same time (The Rom and Gapps)
And Factory reset your System before you install the cynogen and gapps

What do you mean by installing both at the same time, do you mean selecting both zip files at once?

Also I factory reset my phone before I install cyanogen mod from within twrp and had my phone factory reset before rooting.

Also I've tried to install cm and gapps one by one and wiping dalvik/cache after both of them.


Please help

Yes selecting both zips at the same time

Yes selecting both zips at the same time

Do I need to factory reset again and Will this revoke my root access.

I'm asking this because of a reason...let me tell you what I've done.

I factory reset my phone, and then made a nandroid backup using twrp, then I flashed superSU using twrp, installed root checker biscuit said root access is installed properly. Then installed cm 13 and gapps, when that didn't worked, I restored my nandroid backup that I made before rooting, and when I checked from root checker, it was saying the phone is not rooted.

You made a nandroid backup before root so when you restore it is not rooted ( normal ).
What version of stock do you have before flashing cm13 ? If b360, you have bootloop, under b360 shall be no issue.
What i do to flash:
1/ wipe factory reset
2/ advance wipe cache,dalvik,system,data
3/ install ROM
4/ install gapps (arm64)
5/ wipe dalvik/cache
6/ reboot system

To have root, you need to flash supersu ( after gapps ) or alone after first setup of ROM and gapps.
But most of ROM have root built inside, just need to go to options for dev under settings and select app for root

Have you thought of trying another rom ?

 

[swapnilVtiwari]

Have you thought of trying another rom ?

No, because I think there are no other final builds, and I just wanted to try cyanogen mod and waited for the snapshot build because I don't want to have trouble with my phone as this is my main phone.

You do know that the other roms share the same sources as cm13 right ? And that a snapshot isn't that more stable than the other roms, it's pretty much a placebo effect,anyway your phone, your call.

Can you name any other custom Rom that is as good as cyanogen mod and has final stable builds.

And why do you say placebo effect, aren't snapshots the stable builds?

There's the final build of RR or crdroid or any other you really should try yourself and see because like I said they all share the same sources
as for what I said about the snapshot, yeah it is stable and is supposed to be bug-free but what I mean is at this point every other rom is as much stable as that snapshot, try by yourself and see.

I checked both RR and cRdroid download page, they don't seem to have builds for honor 5x.

They are in the development section of honor 5x, what are you using to check xda ?

My phone, I restored the nandroid backup I made using twrp.

Could you please share links for cRdroid and resurrection remix download page.

I meant which app, but here you go http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-5x/development you can find any rom you like, it's the "roms and Kernels" section for honor 5x

Not using any app, just my phone's browser.

And thank you so much for the links, but most of them links say they're unofficial, and as I said earlier I just can't afford to have trouble as this is the only phone I have.

I really appreciate your help, but I can't take risk as I'm not very much into android development.

Sorry if I bothered you.

I really appreciate your help...but I hope you could help me with my cm13 issue.

Brother don't be afraid, what matters is the absence of bugs not the tags "official" or "unofficial" your are not gonna break your device (unless you are doing something stupid) and if you want an example to be assured just look at all the users in XDA, they are all rocking nightly builds on their phone, some of them use "betas" and some others use even "alphas" so don't let that Stop you, and if you have a nandroid backup what would you lose ? If you don't like it you get back to your stock rom, don't let your fear prevent you from the sweetness of custom roms.
