[Q] cyanogeon7 nightly build problem

i find that the nightly build is cool and is awesome. the problem is when i use system panel task manager, the phone reboots. i dont know why and its more laggy than the cm7 mod please tell me its me doing something wrong not my phone's or the mod's fault.

and it svery irritating that it keeps hanging. please someone help me with the nightly mod thing i want to use.

Go for nightly#205. And do a full wipe including data,cache,dalvic cache, and perform a factory resetting from cwm before you flash the nightly. Also use latest buzz kernal so that you can overclock your phone.

i had problem with my previous nightly # 177 when i used darktremor APP2SD script .. even when i re flashed nightly #205 .. things were the same (Talking about random reboots upon opening task manager / and installing apps etc. ) ..
then i repartitioned my SD and didn't flashed the script... now its fine .. ..

so how did you install it? how to repartition sd card and not flash the script? how to install?

Lol you may have used beta 4 script, try beta 3, need to use atleast ext3 as your secondary partition. Try it with latest original cwm recovery. 5.xxx to partition. Do a clean install after partition.
And a personal suggestion. S2e app in market is good than dta2sd, though it have not much functions, but what it have, it does its best. I use it.

Dude, explore options in cwm, don't do formatting boot, system, data, unless you learn what it does.
Options may vary from version to versions of cwm. So you have to say which cwm version you have. Mine is latest 5.xxx.
In it, data- factory format( user data or wipe user data, which ever it is called) is in main menu. And dalvic cache wipe is in advanced menu.
Lol you must carefully read topic named" complete wildfire index, then ask doubts, after all you can learn new things from every topic.
Your kernal will be in that topic. Check it out.

now i got another problem. my wildfire will hang every now and then and i have to pluck out the battery and switch it back on. its very irritating and having to keep doing that will kill my bat very quickly so could anyone tell me any solutions?

To solve your problem, you must say. Your current configuration, rom, kernal, radio, tweeks, and what have you done just before you got the error

well i am using the cm7 nightly build #205. kernel is buzz-kernel-2.6.35. i just downloaded some apps that were in my phone when i was using cm7 stable. and there wasnt a problem. do i have to upgrade to latest build and kernel? oh and just a question. if i want to upgrade from #205 to #208, do i have have to like wipe my data and cache and dalvik cache? i wouldnt wanna redownload and change everythin again

You can install the nightlies on top of one another without wiping anything, sometimes it seems better to wipe the cache to me but not always necessary, leave data alone.
Word of warning though, always make a nandroid backup before installing a new rom, although they're stable they are still called experimental for a reason, and sometimes (not very often) things can still go wrong.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using xda premium

i wiped both the dalvik and partition cache and installed the #208 nightly build and the latest kernel but then the phone would just restart automatically. do i have to wipe data as well?

Yes do a "Wipe Data / Factory Reset" in Clockworkmod if it is giving you issues. Then try a fresh install and check again for instability.
Note - Performing a Wipe Data / Factory Reset will erase all data (Except SD Card)

well i not sure but i think the problem still occurs.. yes it does. i wiped data, cache and dalvik cache, did a install using cwm and it still reboots WHAT TO DO NOW

dude is it the same one you had before? thats why we mention to give your current spec. with out it we cant do any thing or we cant help you.

How to ?

After partitioning the sd card, how do i move the apps or install my app to the sd directly?

You do it by installing rom with a2sd and not doing anything.

If your realy stuck with low app space and not sure if anything worked, do the following:
1. Make a backup of your current setup (nanddroid)
2. Backup all your user apps with titanium backup
3. Full wipe
4. Install a new ROM with either a2sd or data++ if you have at least a 1gb ext3 partion
5. restore your user apps using titanium, they should all restore to the "right place" and you'll have more room than before
DO NOT select "move to sd" under the applications menu, this will move your apps away from your ext3 partion onto the fat32 partion of your sd card
Basically, use this procedure anytime you flash a new ROM unless the dev advises otherwise in the op.

You haven't searched the android market haven't you?

You may also want to look at ext4 rather than ext3 for the partition. Some roms - say RunnyMede AIO will likely work better on ext4.

I personally use "mobile backup II" for sms and call logs, but there are loooooots of solutions available on the market.
I like to use things that I can easily "dropbox" my back up file.

I use ext3. I also use a 2.1 / 3.0 hybrid as my daily driver (as per my sig). Of course the great thing about nandroid back ups is it's freakin easy to test new ROMs when you have a few days to fool around. Sebs runnymede ROM with the new installer will convert your ext3 to ext4 automatically. When I flashed my recovery back, it also restored my partion to ext3.

Thank you so much guys I just moved to Aurora v5 and i should say its really good and stable!!! no problems thus far!

[RECOVERY] CWMR 5.5.0.4 for I957 (LTE)

Hello,
I have ported the latest clockworkmod recovery to the galaxy 8.9 LTE i957 tablet.
This is a recovery and not a kernel, thus you can run whatever you wish.
Instructions:
0) MAKE SURE YOU HAVE AN I957, do not flash this otherwise.
1) Flash this file via ODIN: CWMR5x_i957_recovery.tar.md5
2) Attempt a backup (there appears to be a bug in 5.5.0.4 that long names can possibly cause it to hang during a backup.) If it works or fails, reboot and mount your tablet in your OS. If you get hung, adb shell into your device and reboot it.
3) After your tab is mounted, go into the clockworkmod folder and create an EMPTY FILE with NO EXTENSION called .hidenandroidprogress
Note the period and lack of extension. This prevents the backup routine from enumerating the file list which I suspect is causing the hang during backup.
This is considered an ALPHA release with only two users thus far. No loss of data or damage was caused in the testing of this file. Please try it and report any issues you have with it. I am hoping this opens up the development for this device. I personally dont have it nor did I have access to one when I ported this so I need the community's help to track down issues/bugs. This was a pretty big challenge to get everything working right.
The full device tree I built for this can be found here:
android_device_samsung_SGHI957
Feel free to use this however you wish, though please give credit if it helps you devs.
Thanks to orlandoxpolice and jaywheelz for patiently testing this thus far.

OP updated with alpha build

Thanks for all your hard work

Thanks utkanos all the work is much appreciated.

This is amazing utkanos!
I'm gonna send ya another donation for all your hard work!
wahoooo!
Oh and hey I helped too, sacrificed one tab to the samsung gods!

I have tested everything with this recovery except for sd card re partitioning, wipe data / factory reset, and restore (nandroid).
Known Issues:
If you enter key test, you cant back out.
nandroid backup may hang for some users, the .hidenandroidprogress may have fixed this.
mounting and unmounting data is finicky sometimes.

Orlando is this the same file we had last night? Or it's it slightly changed since then?

Same file. I also installed cwm from market and enabled quick recovery and it worked
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I957 using xda premium

I thought cwm from the market causes our tab to go haywire. Is it the as what utkanos did or a different version?

You can install the program just don't flash its recovery. Go into options and enable quick recovery

Yeah I've been using quick boot from the market.

Any updates?
I'm finally done moving so should be available again.

Recovery
Ok guys
I installed the recovery in my new SGH-I957 and all went well, now I have only tried the "wipe Dalvik cache" and it works great!
Utkanos Thanks for the work done!

First testing the backup, the tablet hangs while copying the file "android.hardware.location.xml"
So I created the file ".hidenandroidprogress" (with Polaris office) and I have saved in the dir "clockworkMod/backup." I tried again to backup and it worked.
Now I have to try a restore, but I will tomorrow or the next!
Max

Awesome!
Look forward to hearing the results of the restore!

So was a restore successful?
If so, I may factory reset mine, root, wipe all the junkware/bloatware, garbage bookmarks, do my browser tweaks, a few other random bits and pieces, and post it up here as a cleaned up, rooted stock rom.

Don't have the success of installing it.. it said is a wrong tar or md5 file and it soft bricked it.. guess I'll wait for the next update.. thanks again

Installed, thus far so good. Little bug though, although GPS works with Maps, the automatic time settings sticks with GMT, it does not detect my time zone, and when I try to manually set the time zone, system hans then just goes back to settings screen. Otherwise very nice, smooth, and a decent ROM. Great work!

thank you for the kind words and the feedback... im working on getting the time bug figured out... ive only experienced it once, and switching to a new and freshly partitioned sd card, followed by fresh wipe/flash has fixed the issue for me... im only one man so i appreciate any/all advice/bug reports/etc...

Yes flashed xgapps. Recovery is CWM but card has been partition for a while. Did it on my Ubuntu PC.
Sent from my LG-VM670 using xda premium

hmmm... the init.d script calls for ext4... perhaps yours is formated to ext2-3?...ive always used recoveries to partition... (just makes more sense to me)... please repartition with either of the suggested recoveries in the op...

It is ext4 and works fine on your build from 9/19 I have flashed back to that for now as I have zero issues with that build. Was just trying the update.
Sent from my LG-VM670 using xda premium

ill check it out, but both ports are working fine for me... ill flash back to xperia and do some testing...

Just saying that I can confirm this ROM works with the PlayStation mobile network app store. Just downloaded and installed on my OV from the Engadget link.

thanks for the feedback!... glad to know the certificate is working... note, i used a better a2sd script in the update... so i definitely suggest repartitioning and flashing it... internal storage will equal your partition size.... (no more storage woes, ever)... im working on updates again... gonna start fresh and slim rom down, and make a flashible zip for xtras that i remove...

Good to know. I may wait for the next update though since this ROM is running so well for me now. If I repartition my sdcard, how can I backup/ restore sd-ext? Is it ok to backup the whole partition and then just copy out Brazil onto the Neely formatted partition? I've never dealt with backing up sd-ext before, just nandroids.
Sent from my LG-VM670 using xda premium

- i advise starting fresh and flashing one of the recoveries suggested in the op
- use it to partition your sd card
- format boot/system/data/cache/sd-ext/dalvik
- disable signature verification
- install rom>reboot
- adjust system settings>reboot recovery
- wipe cache/dalvik>flash gapps>reboot
- enjoy...

G-Apps on CM10 (Benjamin)

Hey,
I am a noob so kindly forgive me if I am doing something wrong.
I followed the instructions at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1813077&page=68 and http://androidforums.com/wildfire-s-all-things-root/480954-guide-how-root-wildfire-s-s-finally.html to finally get CM10 installed on my Wildfire S (Marvel).
But... I am having a problem, whatever I do G-Apps is not showing after I flash it.
Basically, I go to CWM and install from SD card then restart, it says "updating 75 apps" (or something like that, cant remember the exact text) then when it starts... I cannot find gmail and all the other goodies.
Do I have to clear / delete / reinstall something or do something after this?
Please help!
Thanks in advance

As far as I can guess you flashed Gapps lite version... That just bundles with playstore. You need to download other stuff from the playstore itself.

How can I delete the present installation completely and then reinstall from step zero?
Or can you recommend a good (as much bugs free) ICS rom which has no problem with gapps?

I never heard about this problem earlier. But here's a step by step guide to install it. Double check it. Also I recommend CM9 coz I guess you are new to custom roms and its wayy less buggy and will save you from frustration.
In recovery:
1. Wipe data/factory reset.
2. wipe davlik cache.
3. install zip from sd. (Install ROM)
4. Install zip from sd (Install G-apps package)
5. Reboot.
7. If everything goes well you'll see one time startup asking for your google id and all that stuff.
8. when it's fully booted install whatever you are using to incease memory like data 2 sd scripts or link2sd.
9. reboot.
You're done.

I went back to my backed up stock, but this time I used TB to remove some of the bloatware and it's good.
I am giving this mobile to my mom so I wanted it working good, but for her limited uses I think the stock htc room should be good and simple to use.
Will look into link2sd, never used it before.
Cheers and thanks again!

I would check it for you but it's not possible now since I went back to stock HTC (2.3) from backup and just removed some of the bloatware before giving it to my mom as I think she would find JB a little confusing compared to HTC's skin.

I guess thats best...
