Hey all,
I have a rooted sprint galaxy nexus on stock ICS 4.0.4. When I rooted my phone CWM wasn't sticking and so the guide i was using said I had to change recoveryfromboot.p to recoveryfromboot.p.bak. So I did that. Now when I try to install the OTA update it boots into recovery and fails the install with the message: Failed whole package sign (or something like that). How can I update to the newest stock build without having to wipe everything?

Hello All,
My Galaxy Nexus "TAKJU" is rooted and unlocked in Android 4.1.2 version.
Baseband: I9250XXLF1
Build No: JZ054K
Now I remember that directly going for OTA during 4.1.2 had issues and I had to download the stock 4.1.2 and flash.
Is there any way - I can go ahead with the OTA of 4.2 without facing issues as earlier?
Any help is appreciated!
download a rooted stock rom, boot into your custom recovery of choice, createca nandroid backup in the recovery, wipe data/factory reset, flash the rooted rom that you downloaded, reboot. backup all that you want to backup first.

Root is fine, however any modifications to system apps(i.e deodexed) and/or build.prop = you need to go back to stock 4.1.2 other than that you should be fine
Wow! that was the thing.. had modified my build prop file. restored the original one from 4.1.2 and went ahead with OTA and in breeze, there it came up!
Thanks all!

Thanks but one question - doing a data wipe, does it clean /sdcard/ directory contents as well? I guess the internal storage remains unaffected.
Sorry again, have a bad memory with what I did last time.

na, it'll remain untouched. just don't flash a factory image. go to the development section and pick out a rooted stock rom or aosp rom. I'm using an aosp ROM by kalo86.
Newbie here trying to flash my current Boostmobile HTC EVO 4G with the latest rom. I heard that there are all types of ROM out there but afraid to try the wrong rom and then unable to use my phone on boost. Any help on where to get the rom and what version of rom and instructions on how to flash it will be greatly appreciated. Below are the software information on my phone.

Is it rooted?
If it is, then you can flash any ROM and it won't revert your phone to Sprint. those settings are stored in the nvram, your phone number doesnt go away when you flash a rom right?

Yes it is already rooted. I am just looking for a rom for the HTC Evo 4g and I have looked through all the threads and tried a copule but they keep getting aborted during recovery. I have everything backed up and not worried about losing data or apps. Any ideas where I can find a working rom that I can use?
Hi.
(First I would like you to bear with me since I am new to this. The more I read on this topic the more questions popped up.)
So here it is:
I need to MANUALLY update from stock firmware:
Model: GT-N7100
Country: Baltic
Version: Android 4.1.2
Changelist: N/A
Build date: Mon, 04 Feb 2013 09:47:52 KST
Product Code: SEB
PDA: N7100XXDMB2
CSC: N7100SEBDMA1
MODEM: N7100XXDLK7

To stock firmware:
Model: GT-N7100
Country: Greece
Version: Android 4.1.2
Changelist: 1071214
Build date: Fri, 31 May 2013 02:18:10 +0000
Product Code: EUR
PDA: N7100XXDME6
CSC: N7100OXXDMF1
MODEM: N7100XXDMF1
Downloaded the file from Sammobile. 1.1gb in zip format.
Prerequisites:
1. Binary count does not increase.
2. Be able to do future updates through OTA / Kies.
From what I read it is done through Odin but some say that it will increase binary count and then I have to flash stock kernel, wipe cache etc...
I have no idea what that is.
Will you please guide me step by step on this or post some links to follow.
Thanks
P.S. The device is never used, so there is nothing to backup.
Stock rom flashing doesn't raise counter.
You need not to worry and just flash straight way.
Downgrading can cause problem (corrupt imei) and needs backup, you are upgrading and so have no issue.
For detail guide you can find all in one N7100 on my signature and read installation instructions at end of first post.
If your device is non rooted then there won't have issue in update. But remember you will get updates of country depending on rom you going to have. Not from country you are living (if both are different)

Thanks Doc
So after this, the device will be able to do future updates through OTA / Kies.
AND
this stuff "...then I have to flash stock kernel, do factory reset through recovery mode, wipe cache etc..."
is rubbish?
No need to flash any extra stuff, stock rom do have everything inside package. And all components kernel, modem, recovery, bootloader, cache, and system also will update by simply flashing a rom.
Yeah sometimes you may get stuck at samsung logo or may device get bootloop after flashing a rom. At that time you needs wipe cache and wipe data (factory reset) from recovery. But this can happen with kies too. So i recommend to make backup of your important data before any kind of flashing.
Yes you will get update on kies and ota.

Ok.
I have successfully flashed the update via odin and *#1234# confirmed the values given above.
(Before I continue I just want to verify that the above procedure will KEEP settings and apps downloaded up to before the application of the above. Y/N)
However,
Going into recovery mode, I get the following (in yellow beside the droid icon):
#MANUAL MODE#
--APPLYING MULTI CSC--
APPLIED THE CSC-CODE: SEB
SUCCESSFULLY APPLIED MULTI-CSC
note that SEB was the CSC before the update.
How can I get rid of this? (Did factory reset and wipe cashe through recovery).
Furthermore, Kies (OTA too?) concerns are raised reading this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2186410
P.S This device has a hard time get an IP off my router, the first time I had to power off / on the router in order to connect, and now (after the flash) is not connecting again. I have 3 other android devices connecting to the same router no problem. (DHCP range is sufficient for all, even though they are hardly connected all simultaneously)
Help please..........
I just connected it to kies, it says this is the latest firmware but it lists BTU for CSC!!!!!!!!!!!!
Go figure
So I upgraded to Cyanogenmod 10.1 (Jellybean 4.2.2) but now want to go back because it always says out of memory, even though I only have like 2 extra apps installed.
So how would I go back to the stock 2.3.4?
Note before I upgraded it to 4.2.2, I made a backup on clockworkmod, but then when I went to restore the backup, it keeps saying MD5 error or something like that.

You need to use Odin multi downloader v4.38.

I only have a Mac computer...
And can you also tell me the steps on how to restore 2.3.4 (or link me to the steps)
Fairly new at this so please go easy...
I recently attempted to update to J.B. 4.3 on my SGH i747. loserskater thread I believe. Okay so I unrooted and was gonna go to knox just for the hell of it because I don't really want any older roms anyways(wasn't planning to flash a new rom anyways)... Well easily got thru 4.1.2 and when I went to install 4.3 flashed the bootloader and modem, but when I went to flash the 4.3 rom it gives me .md5 checksum mismatch. I've screwed around with my phone and only have one nandroid backup from like a month ago. Here's the catch, I believe I enabled QuickCharge thru a root program so I can't data transfer. My wifi won't work, or my camera, and it will only charge thru certain wall chargers. Here's some phone info:
android version:4.1.2
ap: i747mlvdmf1
cp: i747ucuembjb
csc: i747attdmg2
kernel version: 3.0.31-274808

TWRP Recovery
I've had md5 checksum problems ever since I flashed cwm11 and then removed it about a month ago... sometimes it would tell me in stock recovery that the file I was flashing was d2att and my phone was d2spr. I fixed the build.info on that when it was rooted but it didn't fix anything.
ANY ADVICE AT ALL IS GREATLY APPRECIATED
