Pull Rom Manager support from Market?

If anyone has ties to Koush it might be a good idea to let him know about all the hard bricks that Rom Manager/CWM touch is causing from the ICS leaks on our device. He should consider dropping support for us to avoid further bricks by people that dont know better. I just sent him a DM on twitter.

i and many others have used rom manager to flash SH's FB* rogue kernels after flashing the FB* roms....how exactly are people bricking?? user error should not be a reason to pull support.

considering steady bricked his .....many devs are saying not to flash anything with a ice cwm kernel until they find out what is happening

yea good luck with that, on the prevail/admire/replenish/precedent people were getting bricks left and right because of rom manager. in fact the only safe option for them was "reboot to recovery". we have numerous threads about how not to use it all over android forums. myself and a few others came up with a way to fix cwm (because they are all arm6 devices and koush's rfs modules are arm7 and higher only...) and make it official.. he told us no he didnt like it and to come up with a new way to do it. instead now we have to try and figure out a new way of doing it all while more people get bricks.
so, for you to request he pull support on a product that makes him money and sometimes causes bricks, is a VERY unlikely event.

LOLOLOLOLOL you must be a former evo owner?
on the OG Epic rjmjr69 (ACS team leader) sent him an epic for recovery purposes, 4 months later he still had yet to make it or reply about sending it back. he finally got it back after a few more months and we got a 2.5 version "fake flash" which im sure many of you are familiar with (its how he does all of his samsung recoveries) when version 3.x was made by dameon and we broughtin ext4 support again took forever and then we had just ext4 cwm.. from there drockstar spent MONTHS learning cwm and getting dual fs cwm made. in teh 4.x series drockstar was teh champion of cwm whipping out all sorts of versions and improving on many things. after almost a year he finally got cwm official status again to go from 2.5 to 3.0.0.1 now to 5.0.2.0
my point is all the work was always done all he had to do was sync up their repos, from my experience if you want a cwm that works and is updated, do it yourself... dont rely on him. the atrix has been supported since months after it came out, photon just got support 2 months ago despite it being the SAME phone...

Captivate. But I guess the story is different here. He worked with designgears and had a recovery within days. Same story with SGSII.

lucky you guys

Factory restore was the culprit for me. use the format all zip and that seems to be much safer.

I just bricked my Epic Touch on Saturday. I used Rom Manager to back up the phone. The phone now is in the dumpster. I've used Rom Manager on my EVO 4G, and my EVO 3D for a long time and found the app very useful. I've heard others bad mouth ROM Manager, but I never experienced any problems until now. Any how, I strongly suggest everyone STAY AWAY from Rom Manager if they have an Epic Touch.

I have been using Rom Manager on every ICS leak..I am also very safe in that I don't backup anything as well as flashing back to GB before going onto any other ICS build..User error is the issue, not Rom Manager.

when you guys are talking about Rom Manager, you mean the app, right? I've never had any problems rebooting manually to recovery and flashing roms. I guess that's still usually a version of CWM recovery, right?
2 different animals, correct? I never use the app. I think I did once on my Evo, but I felt like too much stuff was out of my control and didn't like it. never went back.

This. I used ROM manager on every ICS leak and alpha 4/AOKP just to get a temp recovery. From ROM manager I flash cm7 then flash whatever I want from there. No Odin needed.

Exactly it was made to be a noob crutch and they never learned how to do it the right way....on evo it works but this is not a HTC and things are different....but most noobs coming from evo are still using it and you see what is becoming of it .... On top of it there is stupid cwm touch in it too ....double the trouble

I mean I am no pro, but I am sure those devs use every method thinkable when flashing to make sure all methods are compatible. It is inevetible that they will have some bricks. Rom Manager has worked over and over and over for me is all I am saying.
I am not using the touch recovery btw. I flash CWM with Rom Manager and then reboot into recovery with it.
It should also be noted that when I flash CWM using Rom Manager, I do not choose epic 4g touch when it asks what phone I have. I select the bottom option, which I believe is just Galaxy SII

PRESENTS!!11one
InterLopers STOCK FC14 USB Persistent Kernel​
!DISCLAIMER!
This kernel does NOT come with Clockwork, or any variant of custom recovery. It's recovery is as stock as possible.. Wipe functions do work but I recommend ONLY flashing from ODIN or EL26 and wiping with Calk's Format All zip. This seems to be the safest way. We will not be held responsible if you flash this and your dog dies, your car is stolen, your home is broken into, you lose your job or if Jesus comes back like "The hell you doin?" Sorry, NOT OUR PROBLEM. Unless like.. Jesus comes back cause.. that'd be kind of strange and coincidental.
Description!!11one
STOCK FC14 Repack
STOCK Recovery
USB Mass Storage mode and ADB are active on boot JUST PLUG IN USB AND LET ER RIP!
ADB Will NOT notify of USB Debugging currently, sorry but it DOES work.
This kernel is much like the previous ones for other builds. Unfortunately because we're using stock scripts from FC14 you can not currently use this kernel with any NON-TW ROMs.
Team Troll would like to thank the following people.
The users and devs of #ICS-DEV-E4GT including but not limited to:
Team Rogue (For the inspiration in our logo.)
ACSyndicate (Told ya )

sbrissen (wouldn't be able to play with CM9 without this guy)
sfhub for his oneclick odins. (I'm still terrified to flash via clockwork )
Calkulin AND sextape for there simultaneous and numerous leaks..
If we have offended you in any way, Uhm.. k? We're here for the community, the users. Not the devs, well.. we respect the ones we like. If you're butthurt get over it, You're not that important. But thanks for your work anyways?

Kernel and recovery have been exactly the same (verified using md5sum) for every release since the beginning, so if you have the kernel, you already have the recovery.

I want the dump because SOMETHING is wrong so I'm trying to make some comparisons. I'm just try to gather some information from different setups to find out why the cwmr is bricking phones. What I am looking for specifically is to see if what is the kernel and recovery should be doing is what is actually happening. I haven't checked md5 sums since FC13, but I knew then that they were releasing the same kernel. It's even being built by the same bot. I guess it's easiest to say I'm trying to test a theory. If it ends up being that all is well I'm going to continue trying to compile CWMR 5.5.0.4 against what Samsung is releasing so we have a good recovery that everyone can use. I will do a dump of my own device once I have time. I'm going on a date tonight with my wife, and have a B-day party tomorrow night, so it'll have to wait til after that.

Can i package the zimage file into a .tar file and flash via odin or is it more complicated than that?

TADA! Let me know how it goes.

Does this support init.d scripts?

I think the issues with bricking is because the data partition has slightly moved in ICS. People are getting flash happy and doing everything correctly.
I have been double sometimes triple wiping data/cache/dalvik then formatting system before flashing a new ICS ROM, No problems here at all.
1. ODIN el29 rogue recovery only
2. Boot straight into recovery
3. Wipe partitions
4. Reboot to download mode
5. Flash in ODIN
6. Enjoy!

Enjoy B-day and night out.
Anyway, what I'm saying is I've dumped them all and compared them against each other and the tar files. The recovery.bin (mmcblk0p6) is always the same as the zImage (mmcblk0p5), as in byte for byte the same with matching md5 sums. I'm talking about the entire partition, not just the kernel portion stripped of initramfs. If the entire partitions (mmcblk0p6 and mmcblk0p5) are the same, then both kernel and initramfs are obviously the same also.
You can see the same in the leaked tar file releases. recovery.bin is exactly the same as zImage. For all intents and purposes it is just serving as an unused backup of zImage.
So I could dump whatever you wish and send it to you, but you'll find you already have the recovery.bin because you have the zImage. Also the kernel and initramfs of both will be exactly the same.

Thats good info. Thanks sfhub. I'll move along to my next theory.

My son broke his foot so I'll be spending the next few days taking him to doctors, school, etc. I will be testing the usefulness of init.rc mods made with the stock recovery. I did get a replacement e4gt but I also got a Photon and Asus Eee Pad transformer so I'll be learning about those devices also.

Could Not Flash To Page Plus Because Of Custom Rom?

I went to a local page plus dealer and after several tries trying to flash i was told i could flash my phone because of my memory was read only or something like that? Is this something dealing with the kernel? I'm on Aokp and i see the yellow triangle every time i boot up..

Your rom should only make it easier imo.. Id suggest flashing a stock rom for dial codes such as the mms fix and 4g mac address alterations, if you even need it!
Flash it back to stock using odin, go get it flashed, then root and rom.
Another suggestion is to learn the "flashing" process. Youd be surprised at what youll learn and it comes in handy!
As always read, read again, and re read everything you just read!

Thanks for the quick reply!!
Long story short, i just bought this phone 2 days ago and i'm trying to grasp everything.
I came from a droid x and it was much different. To go back to factory, all we had to do was SBF.
Are you familiar with what files i need to go back to stock?
Oh yeah, im currently on a nandroid backup that i made when i first rooted my phone. But i see that i'm on Agat's dirty kernel. Which kernel do i need to be back stock? EL26? FH13? etc

Maybe this would help as well:

Take a glance in the dev section it has everything youll need there. I suggest EL26 odin package. NO BRICK! id also read up on the post in this section describing "for the most part" the flashing process for boost. That will kinda give you a general overview of what your in for if you decide you wanna do it yourself. Btw odin isnt hard to figure out at all at all but like i said read the directions in the op carefully TWICE, THEN AGAIN AS A PRECAUTIONARY MEASURE AND READ IT AS YOUR DOING THE FLASH PROCESS.

Yeah i learned to flash between boost and verizon/sprint and some tricks a few months ago but im no pro.. It honestly doesnt matter what your on or what your using.. Odin is pretty simple and you can use it on whatever rom. at least i have. But you take your own risks lol if you screw it up its not on me.

Ahhh...I think i'm learning..So with my droid x, i used to use Rslite(Not sure if you're familiar with it) to go back to my stock ota rom.
I'm assuming Odin would be the same thing. It lets me go back to Ota updates whenever? Am i on the right track?

Yeap! I had an atrix but i prefer samsung. And your definately on the right track. Odin can be used to flash custom roms as well if there made for it.

Thanks for the Thanks :angel:

Great work once again. My wife refuses to go to custom ROMs and this week I quickly rooted her phone and froze updates so she wouldn't lose the ability to do so in the future. Only downside was not getting the latest update. Then here you are solving that issue for me. It's like you were in my head or something! :silly:
Newbie type question though - will data be effected by flashing this or can i just flash on top stock and retain all her data, apps, accounts and settings?
Thanks

This may be a stupid question, but If I run this to update from MDL will it wipe my apps and have to re-install them and will I loose my customizations to make google wallet and Hangouts video chat over the network work?

Well good morning to me.
Thank you Scott!!

worked great on stock rooted with TWRP, just had to remember to flash loki-doki

Wow, thanks, this should be good, I knew to wait until a professional got a hold of it: Thanks serious.

nice job scott!! :good: mind if is use this as a base ?

Another Pro on the job, can't wait for your version either. Looking forward to it.
Early thanks to you also.
Now let me ask the stupid question, if I flash this, can we still have the ability to run custom roms after? meaning, we won't be locked into MF3 will we.

thanks man!! .. all credit to scott!!. saved me from having to check sammobile 7 times a day for an odin leak

Quick question / curious observation -- on the screenshot, I noticed you have MF3 as the build version, but MDL as the modem still.
Did you revert back to MDL, or does this package not flash/include the MF3 modem?

It should be a solid inplace update going from stock to stock rooted.

Yep, should work on any recovery. I left Loki out of it because of the variations of people and configurations that will flash this.

Word!
I actually had this done the about an hour after the OTA was out...
Long story short... I had a bad binary updater file that caused me to pull my already thin hair out. Then another guy, jetlitheone, gave me a really simple idea... Try another updater binary... and... BOOM!
SO credits to jetlitheone for making me not go insane on this build.
Funny thing... No ****... It was the same binary I used on every version of the S4 ROMS I have made before this one... I dont get it... But its now in the past, lol :silly:

Anyone can use this ROM for any thing they want. Please refer to post #2. Whenever I post a stock rooted ROM its for EVERYONE to make there own or make a public ROM out of.
All yours man...
But credit for the base should be given of course!

No, this is JUST the ROM, no firmware, no radios, etc.
You can flash this on the MDL firmware just like any other ROM and swap back to any other ROM.
BUt this thing, cleaned up, is HELLA SMOOTH!
Even stock rooted untweaked is smooth! I was impressed! I was about to chuck the S4 after using my HTC One... BUt now I will keep both

See above, just the ROM. You do your own modem.
Do not flash any of the SBL's are in another post. They are simply not needed for this ROM. I made it work with the old firmware... Which is the most safe route to go!!!
You can however flash the MF3 radio! Heard it runs good on this base according to a couple guys in my CleanROM thread.

Awesoem work partner!... yourrrrr goooooodddd

Yeah everyone you can find the radios/modem quite easy, if you guys cannot I can link a flashable zip once I find it
thanks for the credit, luckily I was up never sleep
edit: ran out of thanks ! :|

Difference between this and Cleanrom 1.5?
hi scott!
just wondering what is the difference between this ROM and CleanRom 1.5?
is this one just complete Stock ATT? ( NON-CleanRom Modified?)
thanks!

[ROM][4.4] Unofficial Cyanogenmod 11 for GSM/Verizon Galaxy Nexus

This nightlie build of cyanogenmod 11 is of course unofficial! i may continue doing this but its going to be sporadic..

as per usual:
Code:
I am not responsible if you brick your phone, for any bugs in the rom,
or if your cat decides to eat your phone because its now full of awesome.
This build is very much identical with the official build, u can switch from official and my build without any fear of having to wipe your phone.. the only difference is that i have the build script change the cyanogenmod version to more reflect like a nightly
Known Issues:
Possible 3g/4g switching issues
Instructions:
Download rom
Go to recovery
Wipe rom if coming from another rom, u dont have to wipe if ur coming from official kitkat stock rom
Flash rom
Flash gapps
Boot into rom
???
Profit!
the torrent file only contains the rom, it uses a webseed, code.google.com. u can use this if u ever have to pause to download or such.. u dont have to seed, i dont mind.. but others might like u to
To Flash, use CWM 6.0.4.3 or TWRP 2.6.3.0 which you have to manually flash
Current and older builds can be found here:
MediaFire
AndroidFileHost
Google Drive
Google Code
4.4 Gapps, courtesy of Paranoid Android:
MediaFire
AndroidFileHost
A special thanks goes to Paranoid Android for already having Gapps ready for us, and of course google for this wonderful code that is kitkat =]
To all people saying thanks: Your welcome!! ^_^

there are a few issues with 3g/4g switching, but if u were to go into the testing menu (*#*#4636#*#* in dialer) and switch it to gsm/cdma it should situate itself if u get stuck in 3g only

Awesome I'll be sure to check it out! Does Voice+ work on it?

not implemented.. cm11 has a looonnngg way to go.. its very close to aosp currently

OK probably once that gets added in and the graphical glitches end I'll switch to this

ok people, this rom has similar issues but it is rather smoother.. just started running it will report if i run into freezes and such and i expect there to be reports about them too! only issue i really see is the black boxes for browser and apps that use the chromium code..

Mirrors

Are there any mirrors? I have been trying to download for a half an hour and I am also wondering why is this build so humongous? If you provide link to gapps I am assuming that gapps is not in the package so. I am happy to see this up, I am however, jonesing to flash it which is impossible to do without the file!
THank you for your work!
YEAH 0 seeds! Why a torrent?

I feel the same way. If CM is supporting our device then we have the most dev support and best chance at a graphic glitch fix. I don't think it'll be very soon per se but CM support means the most possible devs (hopefully willing) are working on this issue.

I wouldn't put to much hope on CM support for Toro, try looking at the most recent CM support we had with the Data drops on 4.3...

I'm running dhackers cm-11 build right now. I switched to ART and lost superuser. Just wondering if anyone here has tried and what results they're having. I even flashed supersu and apps such as trickster mod tell me I'm not rooted.

I believe all 4.3 Roms had that issue. I'm currently using the nightlies and I don't have any data drops.

@justen7723 - I'm trying out the "Experience" 4.4 toro ROM, and after seeing your post checked, and I indeed appeared to have lost root, despite having flashed supersu v1.69 zip right after the ROM. But... I just went to the Play store, installed Super SU and fired it up. It noted that it needed to update the binary, and I chose the option to have it use "CWM or TWRP" to install the binary (I have the latest CWM Touch installed, which is what i used to wipe the phone and flash the ROM in the first place -- when Philz Touch catches up, I'll go back to that, for for now straight CWM works fine). The phone booted into CWM, ran the script that Super SU had created, installed the new binary, booted up -- and now Android Root Toolkit confirms that I am, indeed, rooted, and I can check -- grant superuser status as needed. All working now. Suggest you give it a try -- works fine in this ROM, and I suspect it would work for you as well.

I am
Running this rom now. I was finally able to get it downloaded and I am seeding now. If the OP does not mind I will upload to a file hosting site and that way it does not have to be a torrent. Let me know you can PM me if you would like.
By the way seems very smooth, only question I have is what is up with the file size? It is monstrous!

Maybe, maybe not. I've been running the M1 SNAPSHOT and have had zero date issues with my phone. The rom is super-stable and I love it. If we don't get a almost not bug CM11 I will be happy with CM10.2 4.3.1 the way it is now in the M1 status.

Thank you for this. I will try it out and report any issues. Not going to run any mods at all or alternate kernals...

I've ran this for about an hour or so. The only thing I majorly notice is the graphical glitches. When I go into ScoreCenter and click on game previews, the text that it tries to bring up is glitching and you can't even read it, while it blacks out certain parts. So far though, this would be pretty close to being a daily driver for my 1-2 hour experience. No random reboots even though Google auto-installed like 20+ apps in a row, and I uninstalled many default Google apps through Titatium Backup.
Great start.
