Question about Storage solution with Flash 10.1

Hi,
The Adobe Flash Player 10.1 is 12mb & cannot be moved to the SD card.
What do you do with it?
live with it? uninstall?
Please advice,
D

Use a custom ROM that updates it in the system partition. On stock there's no choice.

thats no use ive tried everything, pushing it to /system/, dosent work, tryna cook it in my rom didnt work, so i gave up and just put up with the 8mb+ it takes up on my data partiton lol

i even tried writing an update script to flash it from recovery but i need to learn how to write them better, i can get the script to delete files but it always fails on the install bit lol

Just copying the file to the system won't work, that's why you need to use a ROM that updates it properly if you don't want to use data space.

Yeah, as I said, it's more complicated than just copying a file into system.

If you uninstall your market update to flash and install the mod for my ROM, it MAY work on yours. I can't guarantee that obviously.

Use the system flash option - not the data one, that one will remove your system installed version.

Can't update to 4.2.1?

Sprint Galaxy Nexus here. Can't update any way. OTA downloads, installs, and then just boots back into 4.1.1. I can't sideload because the installation keeps getting aborted. Any help?

did you modify any system files?

Nope. I unrooted to get the update and have done many factory resets since, but no messing around with system files.

if im reading it correctly, your radio doesnt match the radio it should have if you were stock.
EDIT: you clearly modified system files because of that.

Did you check the MD5 and/or SHA-1 checksums for those files?

What do u mean exactly? I tried it with wugfresh root toolkit, the tool asked me for one checksum. And it was ok.
By flashing with .bat its not necessary or?

It isn't "necessary" in the sense that the batch file would stop, it's just that the file is corrupted if the checksums don't match. But if the toolkit did the checksum and it was ok at least the download wasn't corrupted. Which doesn't solve your flashing problem. Sorry, i'm out of ideas.

Thanks for you're help. Has nobody this Problem?

I just got the N7, so not sure how to, but I think you now need to perform a factory reset.

The flash would probably fail unless your /system is completely stock. You could use TB to back up, TOT to ZVE, then install the OTA to get to ZVG, but there's no guarantee of root on the other side so TB can restore all your stuff. Stump might work.

Download this.
1. Create a Folder (Call it whatever, but for example I will name it Android) on the root of your C:/ Drive (on your PC.)
2. Download Update.zip (mirror in the OP.)
3. Download the link above in this post, adb.exe.
4. Place both Adb.exe and Update.zip into C:/Android
5. Open CMD
6. Type 'cd C:\Android' (do not include the quotes.)
7. Plug phone into PC in Recovery Mode and plug it in via USB.
8. In Recovery, select Update from adb.
9. Now on the PC, type 'adb sideload Update.zip' in cmd.
10. Let the install happen. It took my phone around 20 minutes. It's a big update.

Problem after updating to Nougat. Can´t downgrade to Marshmallow

Hey guys!
So here is the thing. Today I woke up with the official nougat update (yohoo! right?) but after I updated and the phone restarted and turned on, it starts rebooting. Time after time. I tried wipe partition, wipe factory reset, I tried safe mode, nothing worked. I pick one zip file who said to be a "rom" but it was fake, now i have no OS in my phone. Just the TWRP recovery.
OK, so I downloaded the good file from sammobile about the marshmallow rom, but when I try to install it with Odin, it says "sw rev check fail device 4 binary 3". (I suppose it´s because im trying to downgrade).
Anyway, what should I do?? Greatly appreciated for any help right now the only thing I can do with my phone is play with the recovery and put it on Download mode.
Thanks again!!

Don't use SAMMOBILE, get the file from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/sp...uide-links-files-update-root-restore-t3366862
Check the MD5 to make sure that you got a good download, then try using Odin again.

Try the latest which is QB1, but no guarantee that it will work for you. Downgrading is always tricky.
If it doesn't, don't panic. In the worst case, the Nougat TAR file will be available in a week or two at most. I'll upload it once it comes out.

I do have another problem, that is I don´t have the Hotspot or the activate or desactive button for mobile data. And I have a constant message on the notification panel "Checking device status".
Any news about these?

Which one should I download? for ROM with init.d Support or without init.d Support? (sorry if this is a silly question)
No luck with updating PRL and Profile, it says that it can´t update because "no connection" with both but internet is clearly working and the nougat update its downloading again.. Weird.
By the way the Nougat download finished and I tried to install it but no luck. The phone still restarting so im going back to your rom!

It is not a ROM in the usually accepted sense, it is the stock image file. If you follow the thread and Root your phone and install TWRP, you won't get the Nougat OTA again. The downside is that if you later decide that you want Nougat, you'll have to manually flash it, but that sounds like a better solution for you anyway.
