If the ROM I'm on wasn't so dang good I'd pursue this one big time. I have only been able to get this one to flash correctly once. Not sure what's going on but I continually get a system fc.
You're the only one to report this. Are you wiping system before flashing?

Doing the recommended wipe using TWRP. So you saying I have to wipe system separately? I'm sure it's me cause it's a isolated problem me being the only one ?

Ok I'm sure you stated the obvious numerous times but I've never had to wipe the system along with the recommended TWRP wipe but hey even dumb dogs can learn new tricks. I did as suggested and running this version as we speak without any issues.

Thanks for the heads up and the hard work and devotion put into this ROM. Now I'll have to work on signatures and wallpapers again. :good::laugh:

Wipe the system and all cache. Twice! Then factory reset. Twice! Flush and fill. Then Loki. Try it. Can't hurt.

Just don't wipe internal or the sdcard. Everything else, wipe twice!

Why clean twice? What does it really do?

Just to ensure that everything is wiped. It doesn't take long at all to wipe twice. But if you have trouble flashing, that takes much longer and more aggravation. Wiping twice takes a minute or two. The aggravation can take hours
I have flashed a gazillion ROM's and one wipe with TWRP has always done the trick. This is the only ROM that I have had to wipe System. I don't have a problem with it just wasn't used to doing it.

Like I said the ROM is killer and running just fine. All is well thanks everyone for the advice and help

Glad you got it working @PapaMag. I got used to wiping system a long time ago, I've noticed that sometimes people have issues when switching roms and/or bases if system doesn't get wiped.

Yeah. Me too. But sometimes it matters(wiping twice). Don't know why, but now I just do it to make sure. Because even that one time can be such a pain. And the system folder holds the old rom. Not just the cache. So it makes sense to wipe that. All just to make sure you boot fine and enjoy the new rom. And it only takes an extra minute.
Glad you got it working ok ☺

I never cared for TWRP I always used Shabby Penguins CWM or Jeboos CWM just seemed a whole lot simpler

I keep meaning to try a different recovery. Never get around to it though. ?
On that note now that I'm using SafeStrap I'm quite used to it and find it very easy to use but I think TWRP is still somewhat different. SafeStrap is TWRP based.
