Can't update additional mods

Hi,

I installed GingerMOD .8 and SiyahKernel 2.6.12 on top of it.

USING IN-BUILT GingerMOD UPDATER, I want to install additional features such as power widgets, battery percentage, BLN support, GTalk with video and PolarisOffice.

I downloaded them to the device. (They are in update folder now) When I try to update, it says no MD5 file is found, do I want to proceed? I say yes, it goes to recovery mode, 20 red lines saying that some stuff can't be found and then around 10 yellow lines saying that the update is completed.

When I reboot after this process, nothing happens. no polaris office, no gtalk video no nothing.

Am I missing something?

update: the only difference I caught was some Hotel application that I deleted immediately -)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] zaphod777:
I have found that the recovery siyah is using is not compatible with the GingerMod Updater. What I did was download the update reboot into recovery and manually install the ZIP in the "GingerMOD_Updates" folder.

Hi, I know it was answered on the last page but I wasn't sure what to do, Im trying to get the bln patch but its saying there's no md5 file found, can someone please explain to me in layman's terms how to get this working please

Edit : never mind, I got it working ;-)

Thanks so much
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ksoze11:
thanks fellas
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ksoze11:
Thanks! It worked.

Though I couldn't find a way to show:

-battery percentage

-notification power widgets

-custom lockscreen shortcuts

Can you give me a lead with these?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] zaphod777:
Jkay deluxe settings. The app looks like a yellow android.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ksoze11:
thanks mate but I can't find it in the settings menu.

I've checked JKAy thread. Says it is for XWLA4, mine is XXKI3 (GingerROM w/ SiyahKernel)

Don't want to install wrong zip, kindly advise.

PS: in the Changelog v0.8, it says:

Based on OFFICIAL XWKK5

Android 2.3.6

Multi CSC

Jkay 13.2 included

Is SiyahKernel causing trouble?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] zaphod777:
Jkay is already installed in this rom also I use siyah too.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ksoze11:
Lol its not there

How is this possible and what shall the solution be?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Princeomi:
Weird, try reflashing the Rom again, with a full wipe. Make a nandroid backup first and backup your apps with TB

Sent from my GT-I9100
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ksoze11:
Thanks,

What is full wipe? (wiping cache+dalvik+factory restore?)

Is a Nandroid backup the same as the backup in CWM?

Finally, when I backup and re-install the ROM, then restore my back-up, won't I be in the same point where I am now?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Simba501:
Full wipe is just "wipe data" in CWM; it includes cache and dalvik (no need to factory restore).

Yes, they are the same.

Don't restore the backup. The point is for precaution. Restore missing apps + data via Titanium.

Sent from my Galaxy SII
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ksoze11:
yay! thank you very much mate! it worked.

BTW, GingerMOD is awesome! No unnecessary tweaks, no important crashes (yet), all the goodies of Samsung without the bloatware. simply amazing.

Cheers folks!

I did a full wipe and installed this from CM9, it kept rebooting at the main screen. What the hell? What seems to be the problem? Am I missing out something? I had to do a nandroid restore to my CM9, the ROM is unusable!

Can someone give me a suggestion on what file I can flash for an ICS theme?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ksoze11:
Hi,

I noticed that this ROM can't play videos with hardware rendering, when I play HD videos on MX Player, it says can't play on hardware rendering mod, switching to software rendering.

And when I choose 32 bit colour and deinterlace ON, then the video starts to stutter.

So what might the reason be and is HW rendering on this device more powerful than SW rendering?

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Princeomi:
You may try BS Player (it's free) from the market.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] zaphod777:
Siyah 2.6.12 has known issues with hardware video rendering the dev is working on it (he just got back from his honeymoon) but you may want to roll back to an earlier version like 2.6.11 or earlier.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] CamoGeko:
Siyah 2.6.13 has been released! :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] droidphile:
Why are you here? (jus kidding :) )

@Luca, OTA portion of NEAK config app is also build from your source! While we're all waiting for icecoldwitch, is it OK to ask if there will be a *coughs* LA4 or KL1 build *coughs*. Some wifi issues that KK5 had, and even aos bug to a certain limit is solved in both the builds.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Princeomi:
We are nearing the end of 2.3, so lets wait for a few days and get an ICS rom on the same lines as and when Sammy releases it (15th March tentatively according to GSM Arena) , anyway just my opinion ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] CamoGeko:
Your inviting sig led me to this thread (maybe my curiosity level was too high when I was looking at it), either way...it must mean you're to blame for my presence here. :rolleyes::p:D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] droidphile:
Luca may push a XWKL1 probably someday after tuesday. March 15 rumor is still a rumor. We all know Samsung :)

You're most welcome here :) This thread makes so less noise but that's because all are stunned by the rom's class :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] CamoGeko:
Thanks mate. :)

Yeah, I've been drawn to this ROM. I see that many users are still very happy with it, perhaps time will come soon when I give in to the flashing temptation.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] huuub:
Ik I could flash a nice ICS theme on it I would convert back to it. It is the most clean and responsive I ever installed!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] droidphile:
Vertumus ICS universal 1.9 and 2.0 works perfect. I'm using the same since long time.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] huuub:
Ok, so I resigned the GM0.8 rom for Toggle2G/3G. That worked! (http://min.us/mz0Pi1knv#2o)

Then I installed: ICS Domination v2.0 UNIVERSAL

It worked, (also the Toggle 2G/3G), however I have 1, popup I translate to English:

-----

Application can not execute this action

Sorry!

Proces %s does nog respond

Then there is also one icon in my apps : #bf000000

I guess it is an app from tht GingermodRom 0.8 that is corrupted after it?

Did you have that to? Is there a way to fix that?

Otherwise all seems okay...

Edit: seems tot be my messages app. Weird

Hi guys! :D

Today I've finished exams! hihihi

I'm planning to upgrade to XWKL1 with an incremental update (install it over 0.8) via OTA :D

The rom doesn't REALLY need it, the differences between KK5 and KL1 are WiFi driver mainly! (to @Atomix86) As most samsung things are not present simply...

I'll also add the 13.5jkay and some tweaks and all, now I'm preparing and testing it, for weekend or next week I hope to release something :D

Then I'll simply wait for ICS Sources and start xD

Yup, same error with the messaging app icon.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] huuub:
Exams, damn, I am 35 already :).

Just wanted to let you know I am a big fan of your Rom. Went for a while with CheckRom 6.0 but still I return, it is just snappier, feels lighter and faster. Funny I also flash the modem KL1 over it.

So maybe to help others :

Since I like the Toggle 2G/3G app, the resigned version with Toggle 2G/3G integrated in your ROM:

TheGingerMOD_v0.8_update.zip-Toggle2G-resigned.zip

ICS theme:

ICS_Domination_v2.0_UNIVERSAL.zip

XXKL1 modem/baseband (odin):

MODEM_I9100XXKL1_REV_02_CL1085162.tar

Kernel:

Phenomenal4.0Extreme.zip

(option before flashing kernel, kernel cleaning script):

Ultimate_Kernel_Cleaning_Script_v2.4_en.zip

Note : messaging app doesn't work afer this (gives error at startup)!!!

So I installed GO SMS PRO. Also check that you don't want notifications from your normal SMS app. Soves the problem and the error!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] 89luca89:
Which sms does FC? cm7, aosp or Samsung one??

I've already tried to resign the rom and put 2g toggle (used a lot in aosp :D)

But to me it did not work O.o

What settings did you set on the 2g toggle app?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] huuub:
What concerns the Toggle. It works since the latest version of Toggle 2G/3G for me.

Q of the version: I resigned your ROM, did clean install. I am not sure if it had it then already or after I installed the ICS theme over it. :s.

So I guess the AOSP version?

Settings: you have to select to disconnect for SGS2 as you already know. Further do all settings work, automatic or manual...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] 89luca89:
Well my intent is to have screen off 2g and on 3g, to close it I can do it myself ahahah xD

So not what I'm searching :(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] huuub:
Anyway, take your time. I like your ROM so much because it has no strange behaviours and is clean and simple. I hope it stays that way. Don't tweak it to much that it becomes unclear what is causing what :).

Thanks anyway and good luck!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] 1pudding1:
So you solved the messaging app problem? How do you get into the app to turn off notifications?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] huuub:
When installing go sms pro. It asks if it has to disable other sms notifications from other programs. Better solution however. Freeze the program with titanium backup altogether. Let me know how it goes.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Andrewawright:
Same with mine and put it down to CWM 5. Battery pull, manual install then reboot sorted it though. Great ROM by the way.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
@Luca,

You need to warn users not to flash themes over 0.8.5 from the OTA app becoz they are made with JKay 13.2 while the update is JKay 13.5, unless you have upgraded them already.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
Hey, am on your shade of dusk theme :) which i downloaded from the ota, installed fine and the theme is intact and not broken, perhaps luca has already upgraded them
[Galaxy S II Android Development] shawayne21:
IDK what it is, but everytime I try flashing this, and it finally boots, and I put the phone to sleep, it freezes and I have to do a battery pull.

I've wiped, flashed 0.8 first, booted, went back to recovery, flashed 0.85

Wiped, flashed 0.8 first then 0.85 on top and booted

And I've wiped and flashed 0.8 booted, went back to recovery and wiped again then flash 0.85

And still I always get the same results
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
lol, sorry for the trouble, but yes that is true, if i remember correctly its due to some governor issue iin the abyss kernel, go ahead and lflash siyah and you will be good to go, am attaching a dmesg for the dev to look at
[Galaxy S II Android Development] zyncmaster:
i think all the older init.d scripts needs to be removed before flashing latest rom update...once its done, everything goes fine... if for some reason scripts aren't removed, screen switches off and phone will need to be rebooted...

I am not sure why but I am not able to use GPS whith your ROM running the latest siyah and my stock modem needed for the sc-02c (Japanese Galaxy S2)

When home ill

disable them and try to upgrade them!!

thanks as always :D

yeah kk5 and kl1 framework are in some manners similar and interchangeable so they work! But you have old jkay and bossibly wrong icons in some parts

do NOT put the phone with OndemandX or InteractiveX governors or ANY governor that does interfere with screen off profile ... they are removed from Abyss, still present on.Siyah so pay attention to it

its governors in general not only on abyss :D

Ill look to dsmeg and send it to Angelom!! Many thanks for the log :D

some sscripts are removed from v0.8 to have full compatibility also to Siyah and not only Angelom 's kernel, so i don't think its that!

I really dunno about Japanese galaxies, so try the link zyncmaster said :D

Although by default aGps is located north America,here works pretty fast in Italy and I lock even in my room (not really a good place xD)

I'm not sure if this is an issue or not but my modem is OMKL4

Toggle 2g/3g

I installed the update on it, first resigning it with the Toggle 2G/3G. Which still works.

So for other users who want it to use with Toggle 2G/3G

If you don't have Toggle 2G/3G yet, you first have to do a clean install (full wipe) with the Resigned Gingermod 0.8.

After that install the resigned update 0.85 in CMW.

I am using the phenomenal 4.0 extreme kernel, based on speedmod, to avoid problems first use the cleaning script.

Hi Luca

I just installed my first AOSPROM over my stock ROM. It happened to be Gingermod 0.8 after recommendation from GM.

Great work done, very stable, ultra smooth and light. Still testing the battery though. Enjoying your OTA tool as well as the integrated GM tools and extras. I have a couple of points though:

1- 0.8.5 update could not be applied and got stuck after SD card mounted message in CWM. I had to do it manually.

2- After applying 0.8.5 I had a lock screen blackout problem, home screen not responsive and black screen. A hard reset was needed everytime. Tried different setup for JKay but vain and was solved only after flashing Siyah 2.6.13 #122!!!

I need your advice on how to install Arabic language support (Display and Keyboard) as I had it on my stock JPxxx rom and I need it badly..

Thanks for your great work.. well done
[Galaxy S II Android Development] huuub:
hmm... Don't know if it is related... I installed clean 0.8 (full wipe) and installed after that the update. First time I had a SOD, after rebooting, it went to sleep, the screen showed the unlock screen and immediately locked up.

Had to reboot again. (nothing installed yet)

I then setup my google account and my AP and did not had an error/SOD since...

Using build in kernel for now!
