[Q] Data not wiping and cannot flash rom

[jcxmej]

Hi guys

Im currently using Energy rom on romslot1 aa daily rom. I downloaded tripping bean and was trying to install on the stock rom slot. I did factory reset cache wipe dalvik cache wipe and system wipe. But when i tried to install the rom Im getting an error " set_perm - some changes failed " status 7 error ... googled it out and it said to try downloading the rom again. but i downloaded again and did md5 check and it was same and installing still not working. not sure whats wrong. Also i tried to wipe data but im getting an error unable to wipe data. Im guessing somehow these two errors are related?

You need to get into fastboot mode but first download Matt's utility 1.20 and follow the interactions.

to get into AP fastboot mode turn off you're device and hold power+ vol up + vol down and then when you get to a black and white screen use vol down to navigate, scroll down to where it says AP fastboot and press vol up

in Matt's utility it gives you the options to flash stock 4.1.2 in fastboot mode.

it's option 1 I think.
if you decide the option to root you has to be in USB debugging. (phone needs to be booted up)
it would be nice if you unlocked you're device's bootloader, and Flash TWRP recovery. it's a better option than safestrap now anyways good luck.

Do not use utility version 1.20, unless you have updated to 4.1.2. You will have issues. If you have not updated, you need to use utility version 1.10.

Thanks man. So much to do i guess. But I have a doubt. If I flash stock in fastboot mode using the utility, do i lose the safestrap and the slots and roms in it. I mean if i do this it will be like brand new? and unrooted?

Please tell me you saw my post above yours and you used the correct utility?

I did see your post afterwards. But I havent started doing it because I will lose all my roms n data if i do it. I had got my razr m on 4.1.1 and then i had rooted and installed safestrap and had flashed several roms on the stock slot also. So the rom in the stock slot is 4.1.2. But I cant boot into it. The rom in rom slot 1 (my daily rom) is 4.1.1. So can i use utility 1.20? or should i use 1.10? Whats the difference?

If you updated to official Verizon update in stock slot (4.1.2), then you need to use utility 1.20. 1.20 is designed for 4.1.2 and it includes all the fastboot files for 4.1.2. The key here is whether or not you flashed the official update. There are only a couple of 4.1.2 based aftermarket ROMs available, and they're over on DroidRzr.com (cm10.1 doesn't count because it's not a stock based build). If you didn't take the Verizon update and didn't flash any of MHouse's DST or FXZ ROMs, then you should still be on 4.1.1. If you are on 4.1.1, then use the utility version 1.10. Honestly, you just need to get over the fact you're going to lose ROMs and data, and fastboot the phone back to stock. Then, start from scratch. If you have any important data, save it to your external SD or computer. You'll be able to flash everything again, once you have a good, clean stock install. Then, after fastbooting, unlock your bootloader and stop dealing with SafeStrap. Install a custom recovery, and flash until your heart's content.

 

[ktracho13]

Yeah my bad, I didn't know it could cause issues. Anyway, it doesn't matter if you lose safestrap because right now unlocking your bootloader and flashing a custom recovery is safer, lol. if you do decide to install a custom recovery make sure you backup you're stock ROM.

 

[brandon71]

If you don't wanna lose your roms and stiff back up with ss and put it on so doesn't take but about 10 mixtures after fastbooting to go back the way it was
