Issues flashing ViperINC - Verizon Droid Incredible 2

I am having an issue with flashing the ViperINC rom. I have it currently installed but I think things got messed up when I tried to update it. I didn't think of it at the time.
I've tried everything to get the newest version to install properly (1.2.0). I get Aroma to run and everything is good until the actual install of the ROM. It goes through a few steps and then stops on "Erasing & formatting /cache as EXT4". The next button then highlights and leaves me with that option and an option to save the log.
Here is the install log error:
-> Erasing & Formatting /cache as EXT4

It happens no matter which version I used of ViperINC.
Can anyone help?

Have you tried a fresh install?

Fresh install? Kinda a noob on my terminology. If you mean in recovery clearing data/cache/davlik and then flashing then yes.
I think one time I actually tried formatting a few of the options in recovery (system and other) but that didn't do much either.
Any suggestion for wiping it completely clean of any ROM? (that might be a fresh install but I'm unsure)
Thanks

Just another suggestion...try the AntiVenom SDW tool found here on the forums....then do a fresh install.

Switched to 4EXT and flashed Anti-Venom and then everything was good!
I do have one issue. GPS is not locking at all. Not even seeing more then 1 or two satellites.

I have the incredible ability to find exactly what I am asking for after making a post about it. Found that like 10 minutes after I posted the GPS issue. Thanks though!

PLEASE HELP! can't mount /cache/!

I've been trying to install custom roms for a few days. Now I finally got one to work. But There is still one mega problem. I can't install or download anything from anywhere. Reason is probably that the cache is f'ed.
When I installed rom I alway got:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p24 (invalid argument)
Error mounting /cache/!
Skipping format...
Cache wipe complete.
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p24 (invalid argument)
.
.
.
I tried fixing permissions, wiping dalvin cache and wiping data/factory and still the cache wouldn't mount!!!
Now when a rom finaly worked, I couldn't download any apps, because of cache issue. So I went to see what permissions the cache folder had, and it had all permissions.
What should I do now???

It would be interesting to see how it's trying to mount the cache partition and what argument it's invalid. On a linux system this information can usually be found in a file called fstab in the /etc folder. I looked for a similar file on my Defy but haven't found one yet (I would need to make a thorough search to find that file) but if I remember well, on android emulator I saw file with a similar name, having the same content as a normal fstab file.
When I'll get home, I'll make a more thorough analysis on my Defy and if I will find something I'll post here my findings in order to help you fix the issue you're having.
FIXED!!! I used adb shell to format the CACHE: partition. It had errors! Now all is working!

I've got the same problem and that hasn't worked for me. I'd also like to know how to wipe the cache using adb shell.
I've found the solutions:
in console:
> adb shell
$ su
(press ok when ask for permission on a device)
# format CACHE:
# exit
$ exit
but for me doesn't work
when I try "format CACHE:" I receive:

I did the same as you with the same result, but followed it up by booting into recovery and then wiping the cache from there. That appears to have sorted the problem out. I can use the market again and when I'm in recovery the mount error problem has disappeared.

Which version of cwm have you install?
I use the v3.0.2.8 (the last one I think), installed by 2ndInit Recovery Installer v1.7

Ok...I'll try with Stock Recovery soon. For now i've had used only the Custom Recovery
EDIT: I can't use the Stock Recovery. If I tap on the right corner of the screen nothing happen
EDIT2: just press both volume-up AND volume-down at the same time (once you are in the Stock Recovery)...wipe all...and then WORK AGAIN!!!!!! Thank you so much!!!!!

Tks mates. It solve my prob like this too.
My short problem historic:
I bought a German Defy (2.1); I upgrade it with a bad Brazilian 2.2; I fixed with a good Brazilian retail 2.2 version (that Ifound in this forum) and I just fixed my last issue formatting the CACHE, exactly the same way (including the format error and the after cache wipe)
Cheers.

[Q][XS] CWM format error on /system on LT26i

I'm using CWM on my XPERIA LT26i running fw 6.1.A.2.55 with a rooted OS.
If I get the following error in CWM, does that normally mean my internal memory is failing/about to fail???

I can "doggedly" recover from this error my just keep formatting the /system partition and eventually it completes successfully.
I don't seem to get any operational errors when using my phone and my OS appears to be stable.
This only occurs when attempting to restore a previous backup and the restore fails on the /system partition when attempting to format it.
Manually formatting the /system partition also fails..but can successfully complete after a few attempts. (fingers crossed)
I have seen this 'type' of error reported in the XPERIA U/P/Sola forum too.
Is it possible (I have root access) to run fdisk on the /system partition and if so.. what do I need to do to do that.
And what are the risks?
Thanks for any advice.
[UPDATE]
Additional information that may alleviate my panic ... a bit. Found this in "Advanced Stock ICS Kernel for Xperia S" ROM
Build 14 :
New MMC driver (from codeaurora) : it fixes issue while formatting partitions in CWM
Wifi module built from source (in the ramdisk)
Updated recovery
Disable again hardware clock

ViperINC installation problem

Hello, since I just joined the forum I am unable to post in Development section. So I'll try my luck here.
I am running S-off with twrp recovery. When I try to install ViperINC it fails at the last step "installation" in AROMA. Basically I select everything I need in the AROMA click next it looks like its trying to install but then just finishes and pops up a next button. When I click it just says Enjoy you have successfully completed installation. Below is the info I was able to retrieve from twrp.
Thank you

Try and wipe first with twrp or chillys super wipe. Then in aroma skip wipe option and see if that works.
First of all, did you flash the ICS firmware?
Use another recovery , download 4ext , I have the same problem with twrp

I agree with this and the wipe option. Super wipe first, do a "dirty flash" in AROMA. Maybe twrp isn't mounting your system correctly.
It also seems you have twrp backing up your apps before a wipe and install. See if changing that helps.

[Q] Can't restore CWM backup, error restoring /system

Howdy all,
I recently tried to switch to CM 10.2 M1. It's not working out for me for two reasons:
Poor mobile data performance - requires frequent reboots to maintain data connection
openPDroid is not playing nice with it
So, I'm trying to restore my 10.1.3 backup. I have done a factory wipe from CWM and formatted /system (though I may have tried just restoring previous to that, I don't recall). When I try to restore the backup, the boot.img is restored successfully, it starts /system, and after some seconds it gives the following message and stops the restore process:
Code:
Error restoring /system!
The relevant excerpt of /cache/recovery/log is below. Fortunately I finally got ADB sort-of working again (won't connect from fastboot but does from CWM).
I suspect one of two things:
Somehow the size of the /system partition has changed, but I don't know why, how to verify it (what should it be?), and how to safely change it.
The backup is corrupt. I don't know how to check this. The log indicates md5s are okay for system.ext4.dup, but I don't see any indication in the logs that md5s of all of the blobs are okay or even checked.
Has anyone seen something similar or have any advice?
Thanks!!
VZW toro
CWM 6.0.1.0 used to create the backup and to attempt the restore
Using Linux, which has not always played nice with this phone (MTP not supported, udev hell), which is probably the adb issue during fastboot

Miroslav's CM11 flashing methods

Hello friends,
I have tried to flash every update of the Miroslav's rom unsuccessfuly. These are the metods I have tried:
SWETNES METHOD: ...Format system partition FIRST then flash ROM, then format cache, then do a FACTORY RESET (format data). First boot takes almost 10 min so be patient...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
NOTZIPPY METHOD: ...After flash and reboot my phone did not get past the cm logo, I noticed a lot of errors in logcat , so I reboot into recovery and formatted cache and rebooted again, them ROM booted
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
MR.201 METHOD: ...factory reset then just flash the rc1 rom. gaaps is not needed as miroslav already added light gaaps...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
_CRASS_ METHOD:
As for installing here is exactly what I did:
1) soft reboot to recovery
2) backuped everything through clockwork recovery
3) cleared cache
4) cleared dalvic
5) factory reset
6) install miroslav rom
7) rebooted...it got stuck on the CM logo
8) After about 10 minutes of no go I pulled battery
9) booted to clockwork recovery
10) factory reset
11) installed miroslav rom
12) installed latest kitkat gapps from CM website
13) rebooted
14) after 3-4 minutes I was in the pin screen of CM
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
LILOWEK METHOD: ...There was no rhyme or reason of why it installed. I simply installed it with gapps. No go. Format, clear all cache, install with gapps. Still the same. Did it again, and this time it went through. It booted in about 3 minutes. I suggest if you are having problems installing it to boot to just do it over and over as it will likely take at some point...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
_CRASS_ METHOD ON RC2:
Installed it today.
Wiped factory data.
Wiped cache
Wiped dalvic
installed miroslav rom
installed gapps
and it booted right away.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
REALYPSSD METHOD:
It took 2 tries:
Wiped System
Wiped factory data.
Wiped cache
Wiped dalvic
installed miroslav rom
installed gapps
Doing that didn't work, waited 15-20 minutes, was stuck at the CM logo.
Then I tried without flashing GAPPS, and it worked. I flashed GAPPS after I'd initially booted up once.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
After I tried all these methods, I only softbricked the phone and had to unbrick it. I have a LG NITRO HD P930 and I use Philz Touch 6.19.3. SWETNES user suggest to use CWM 6.0.1.5 because he says CWM 6.0.4.5 has a lot of bugs, and MIROSLAV says he uses CWM 6.0.4.8 (I can't find it)
Also I want to know if in case I flash it successfuly, the rom MUST boot inmediatly first to LG logo then to CM logo or I have to wait watching the LG logo booting over and over for some minutes??
Any comments, suggestions?
Thank you guys.
I am having the same issue as OP
You did not try my suggestion Try flashing the rom then the gapps with adb sideload after wiping everything.
i use philztouch cwm and have had no problem flashing 4.3/4.4 roms with it. i also rooted my n what not when it was on ICS. i think the option in developer section to update cwm wich gave me the newest 6.0.4.8 i think but have been using philztouch till now.
Ive only wiped everything and flashed rom with no problems so far
Thank you for your comments.

Yeah, I noticed your method but I am kinda stupid and realy dont get clear the steps. I found this guide to flash via sideload and I wonder if it will work with philz touch:

Maybe you got the same case as I am. Try to use CWM touch 6.0.1.5 . Then factory reset, format /system , then flash the rom. Loading might take several minute(mine was 10 min) then it will boot up properly. I already use philztouch,cwm 6.0.4.5,latest twrp but all of them not working for me in flashing this rom.
Here, I include the attachment for cwm touch 6.0.1.5 in case you're wondering where you want to find it.put it in the root of your sd card.
Then just run adb . Next, run the following command in the adb cmd :
adb shell
su
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13
Best of luck, not all guide work for many people and devices

I wonder if this has to do with the way the phones r "unbricked" ? But personally yes I say latest philztouch. Worked great for me. I have latest cwm installed right now 6.0.4.9 & I can't backup so I'll be going back to philztouch.
Another try
I would try hereric's unbricking guide.
Start on step 9, and instead of flashing the provided KDZ use the v10i , download it at lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=17
Good luck

I wonder if this has to do with the way the phones r "unbricked" ? But personally yes I say latest philztouch. Worked great for me. I have latest cwm installed right now 6.0.4.9 & I can't backup so I'll be going back to philztouch.

Well, I have used the latest philz and it has not worked for me so I will try using CWM 6.0.1.5. And well, it is very complicated to me that stuff about the unbricking because of the "baseband" and other things I dont understand and everybody mentions. I am beginning to believe that it HAS to be flashed over an specific baseband, or am I getting it wrong?

Maybe you got the same case as I am. Try to use CWM touch 6.0.1.5 . Then factory reset, format /system , then flash the rom. Loading might take several minute(mine was 10 min) then it will boot up properly. I already use philztouch,cwm 6.0.4.5,latest twrp but all of them not working for me in flashing this rom.
Here, I include the attachment for cwm touch 6.0.1.5 in case you're wondering where you want to find it.put it in the root of your sd card.
Then just run adb . Next, run the following command in the adb cmd :
adb shell
su
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13
Best of luck, not all guide work for many people and devices

I will try with this CWM 6.0.1.5. Thank you very much for the download So, with this method I can flash the RC3 directly? the 10 minutes you mention are with the LG Logo screen booting up over and over?

I would try hereric's unbricking guide.
Start on step 9, and instead of flashing the provided KDZ use the v10i , download it at lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=17
Good luck

The link you provide mention a P936 and mine is a P930. If I install this, will the phone work allright? As I was saying to xxAirwickxx, is it necesary to install this previously to flash the miroslav's rom???
Thank to every one for helping me to get a stable rom in my phone. I really apreciate it. :good:

It's not necessary, but the KDZ provided is not the most recent build of the GB, the v10i is most recent.
There's no problema flashing it, there is the p930, the p935 and the p936 which are all variants of the same phone, 930 is for america 935 for canada and 936 for europe i believe.
I couldn't install SphinX , always got bootloop or it booted but some system apps like phone didn't start...
Try that and you will probably succed
also , i use PhillZ and i have no problema :laugh:
In order to flash via sideload, I use this guide very easy once you install everything (android sdk and components)

I tried hard and failed miserably
Well, its been a while since I started this thread. I tried the adb sideload, tried the CWM 6.0.1.5, tried a clean flash (factory reset, format system), waited boot loops for over 30 minutes and nothing. I did not flash KDZ v10i because that process has been always a pain to me. I will get back to CM 10.1.3 + Wind kernel + adreno drivers (the most stable configuration I know) and wait and see if miroslav fix this issue.
Thank you all for your time.
Yeah,I have tried all this methods but no luck......Just got the LG logo bootloop everytime!!(btw,my phone is su640)
I think people have changed there partition sizes in the past that is why the rom is failing to flash - here is mine and I can flash it

Was able to flash Miro's cm11 Final with this method. Worked first time like a charm.
