Why isn't my android working properly? A couple months ago I tried putting CyanogenMod on my sprint galaxy s3. I used the one click cyanogen installer on my windows PC. 

I don't remember why, but the install didn't fully flash because unless I'm going into recovery mode I never see the cyanogen boot up screen. I have gone into About Phone but I can't find anything telling me that Cyanogen is actually running or even on the device. 

Ever since I did try to flash this ROM my phone hasn't been able to fully function. Certain apps that I previously had or reinstalled off of the play store either don't work or certain functions within the app don't work. All I know is that when I enter recovery mode it does show clockworkmod as my recovery.
It's possible that the flash purely failed, or that you dirty flashed (flashing without clearing the cache/data) the ROM.

Seeing as you have access to recovery:


I'd suggest that you download a new CM ROM (Lollipop-5.0.2) from the XDA Developer Forums
Download the corresponding Google Apps package (i.e. for PA GApps for Android L)
Place both of the .zip files on your external SD card
Boot your phone into recovery mode and Wipe Data (Factory Reset). Also wipe all caches (Dalvik inclusively)
Install both .zips. First the ROM, and then the GApps package
Wipe the Dalvik Cache one more time for good measure
Boot the device and enjoy CM
