OK, so when you flashed beta 5, did you only flash over the top of beta 4? And not format boot, system, data, cache and sd-ext? Cause if you don't format boot, system, data, cache and sd-ext, your going to have no end of problems.
[Legend Android Development] guinioul:
Hello Ranger .

I flashed from CM7 and before flashing CM9 I wiped all "wipeable" elements (cache, data, dalvik ...) .

Then I tried 3 times to flash the beta5 with rewipping all elements each times, I even donwloaded 2 times the .zip to be sure my download wasn't corrupted . But still no result :-/ .

I'm on beta4 by now (and all is working fine, even the photo camera and without camera illusion) .

So I will wait for the beta6 or CM10 :D

Voice Search fix

Hi all,

I have applied the voice fix and it worked great. However, when I need to restart the device I am back with the defective version. How do I install the app so that it sticks. I told the market not to auto update that app.

Cheers,

Steve.
[Legend Android Development] ranger4740:
I notice you only really mention cache in your reply as in Cache, data, davlik... are you formatting the boot, system, data, cache and sd-ext?

This information is very important if you want help.

This is not aimed directly at you,but I've seen quite a few having problems trying to flash beta5, and as with all versions zeubea has put out its been the same issues, "I can't flash alpha X or beta X or I get boot loop" etc the only way any one can help any one is to provide an explination as to exactly how you've tried to flash in the first place.

I bet 9 times out of 10 those with issues have corrupt download, just because you downloaded it 10 or more times doesn't mean its not corrupt (I've sometimes had corrupt downloads every time on my phone till I downloaded it via PC) that's why we have "md5" check sums, if you don't know what they are, you better find out, or whom ever having issues have not formatted the phone compleatly or correctly.

The 1 out of 10 could even be bad memory blocks as discovered by user neferth in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=32075140.

Something for you to chew on ;)

Sorry didn't really mean to hi-jack Dev thread...

T-Mobile/Orange (EE)

What is the most stable radio ROM for T-Mobile UK (Orange / EE) I have used the recommended legend.radio-47.51.35.17_7.13.35.05-signed and the signal meter display will fluctuate between 2-5 bars when turning on the spot (same room etc.)

Cheers,

Steve
[Legend Android Development] ranger4740:
Your using a cellular mobile phone inside a room, as a amateur radio opererator myself, I know the frequencies your dealing with require clear line sight direct to the base station for guaranteed uninterrupted signal, so what your experiencing is I'd say is totaly normal.
[Legend Android Development] guinioul:
Hello Ranger .

I checked the md5 of beta5 and it is correct, so my download is ok .

to flash I did (in this order) :

01 - I started the phone with "vol down" + "power", it brings me to the bootloader .

02 - In the bootloader menu I choosed "recovery", it bring me to the black screen with the red "!" . At this stage I do "vol up" + "power" to get the "Android system recovery <2e>"

03 - In this menu I choosed "wipe data/factory reset"

04 - then i applied "Wipe cache partition"

05 - thirdly, to go to CWM I do "apply sdcard:update.zip"

06 - Now in CWM I have done : "wipe data/factory reset"

07 - still in CWM I have done : "Wipe cache partition"

08 - still in CWM I gone to "advanced" and I choosed "Wipe Dalvik Cache"

09 - Then I pressed the back button to go back in the "CWM main menu" and I choosed "Install zip from sdcard" > "choose zip from sdcard" > "beta5"

10 - The phone applied the beta5 zip but I'm stuck on HTC green logo .

I applied exactly the same method for beta4 and it worked successfully . I NEVER used the menu "mount and storage" (for any rom before !) so I have never formatted "boot" or "system" .

(by writting theses lines I'm understanding that beta5 as a special ICS kernel, so if I don't format "boot" will the kernel be replaced) .

Should I try to format "boot" and "system" before flashing beta5 ??

Thanks again for your help and sorry for my english that could not be as good as i would .
[Legend Android Development] ranger4740:
We'll yes, that was whole point to my responses, format boot, system, data, cache, sd-ext. Some roms have script inside that prepair system space to accept rom, but I don't think zeubeas roms have ever had this feature. As I've already said if you don't, your heading for problems, just as I've already said......

Just do it, flash your rom, then flash gapps then reboot, easy! I flash ALL my cm based roms this way and NEVER EVER have these issues that so many seam to have.
[Legend Android Development] guinioul:
Hello again Ranger .

So,

I formatted ALL the partitions (boot, system, data, cache and I wiped the dalvik) but the phone is still stuck at the HTC logo :-/ (I waited 10mn) .

I installed Beta5 the other day. Using the htcdev unlocking process was easy, acquiring root using supertools took a more than a few hours.

I fixed the wifi issue using WiFi timeout from google market place.

Beta5, everything works except the youtube-app which restarts the phone from time to time (i dont know if you mean that with HQ-videos in the opening post, I did not have a choice to select HQ videos or any resolution in the app).

Hi,

could someone please enlighten me how wifi tethering works?

(I´ve read the first post and know that I have to use open garden - but this only works using bluetooth and not like the actual wifi tether function...?)

Is there a way to use *regular* wifi tethering?
[Legend Android Development] ranger4740:
No you can't use native WiFi teather there are no drivers working. Open garden worked in versions before beta 5 (I never tried beta 5) but you can't use encryption like WPA or wpa2 only open connection, but, you can setup authorized devices connection for WiFi connection.
[Legend Android Development] ms_green:
Ok, so tether only works using Bluetooth.

Also stuck at htc logo

Same problem here. Stuck at htc logo even though I did full wipe. previous ROM was cm7 and that always flashed fine.

I was under the impression that CWM would refuse to install a corrupt .zip? On my phone the installation ran without any error messages. Ideas anyone?
[Legend Android Development] bitnerd:
I have the same problem on mine but I assumed it was more a user error on my side since I'm not all that familiar with the Legend.

In my case I've had CM7 and CM9 (RC2 Beta 4) working fine on the phone. When I try to flash CM9.1 Beta 5 or even the CM10 files then I just get stuck at the white HTC screen and it never changes. I end up having to pull the battery, reboot into recovery, and restore CM9 again. I've tried clearing everything I could think of - caches, data wipe, so on - but it doesn't seem to matter. The zip doesn't seem corrupt as CWM doesn't report and errors at all when installing. Tried this about 5 times with the same result each time

I'll try to download a fourth zip and see if it works this time
[Legend Android Development] sanktnelson:
try upgrading and unlocking hboot

don't bother with redownloading the ROM, just check the md5sum.

Which hboot do you have? After I failed getting cm9 beta5 to work I wanted to try zeubea's CM10, and in that thread he explicitly says that it requires s-off or unlocked hboot from htc. So I went and did the upgrade and unlock, et voila, suddenly CM9 worked as well! Don't know if that was actually the reason, but all you out there with the "stuck at htc logo" problem might want to give that a try.

I ended up going back to cm7 in the end because I couldn't get superuser to work. After reinstalling the app single invocations would work, but superuser never remembered the apps that I allowed, and that makes programs with batch operations like Ti backup kinda useless.
[Legend Android Development] Hellisonearth:
if you get htc logo bootloop after flashing the zip, try flashing the Gapps ALSO right after the ROM! With right after i mean: dont restart after flashing the rom, instead, flash the gapps also, then reboot.

I had the bootloop too and suprisingly it made adifference if there were gapps installed or not. With them installed, it worked perfectly.
[Legend Android Development] bitnerd:
it's not a boot loop in my case as much as a hang. I did load gapps the first time or two and it still did it. I'll try again shortly
[Legend Android Development] ranger4740:
This is how I do it, never ever have problems!
[Legend Android Development] maango:
My mother has an HTC legend which definitely needs another rom than the stock one. Found this thread in the forum and seems like a great rom for this phone.

What do you guys think, should I go for this rom or is there any other, more stable, rom that I should use? As I said, it's for my mother ;)

Thx in advance!
[Legend Android Development] garuhhh:
If you're mom is not into technology, I would suggest a more stable ROM. like CM7.2? Unless you are there to provide tech-support most time of the day, then you can go ahead with this ROM. It has still a few glitches.

My 2 year old kid plays with my Legend now, and he always goes into youtube and watches videos from sdCArd. So I just stuck first with CM7.2.

But if you don't mind having her try it for a while, then I think that will be a good idea.

Upgrade gone bad

Hi,

Today I attempted to upgrade my HTC legend from CM9.0 Beta2 to CM 9.1 Beta5 using Rom Manager. I selected wipe davlik cache. Everything looked ok during the process but when it rebooted it is stuck on HTC logo and goes no further.

When attempting to go into recovery, after selecting recovery, it goes to the red triangle with ! mark and is stuck.

How can I get out of this mess? It's been a while since I messed with an HTC

[Legend Android Development] smithchipz:
To everyone with Superuser problems,

Download ES File Explorer from the Play Store. In the settings, allow it to browse up to the root directory. After doing that, navigate to system/app and find the superuser.apk. Install it TWICE or install it, reboot and install again. ( Not sure why but I had to install twice, it may be different for you) This should fix Superuser.

Optional: Install SuperSU from the Play Store and delete the superuser.apk from system/app and data/app and reboot.

Hi guys,

I cant reinstall superuser.apk because the root explorer doesnt get root privileges because super user FCs. What can i do now to get su working?
[Legend Android Development] ranger4740:
You don't need root privelages to reinstall su, just navigate to root then go to system then app. I find it works better if you copy su app to the SD card then install from there.
[Legend Android Development] smithchipz:
You just allow it to browse up to root in settings, not use as root or anything else.

I flashed an older version of the su binary via cwm. Then i let the app update in playstore. And taddda, now it works :D

Does incoming call issue still exist?
[Legend Android Development] smithchipz:
I'm back with another fix for SuperUser which I find to be personally better. I've created a CWM flashable zip that will remove the included su binary and Superuser.apk and replace it with Chainfire's su binary and SuperSU app. Tested on a fresh install and all went well :victory:

Install

It can be installed as part of the install process of the ROM. Just flash it after you flash the ROM and gapps and reboot.

OR

Reboot to CWM and flash it. Be sure to clear cache and Dalvik cache before rebooting

Also should be able to be used on CM10, although I haven't tested it.

Credits

Chainfire for SuperSU and su binary, also parts of the update-script

ChainsDD for the update-script from his Superuser which I studied meticulously to learn how this thing works

Note: I'm not responsible for any damage or bricks caused during this process, although I doubt they will happen

Zip can be found in attachments
