[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
If you're having trouble flashing a custom ROM, first place to start would be the thread for that particular custom ROM.

All custom ROMs should have detailed installation instructions. Make sure you are following them to the letter.

If you are flashing kernels, you must make sure you flash a kernel meant for your phone, and meant for your build. Hang on boot screen usually means you have a file not compatible with your build of Android. Could be kernel, but could also be another system file.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nelinski:
I have been searching, its what im currently doing now but everyone seems to have got it working or have completely different problems to me.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1436854

Literally followed it step for step, there isn't much to it. When i did 9.4 it had the same steps and that all worked fine, so i must be missing something pretty damn important here.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
So when you say:

what do you mean by restart into the stock kernel? This part of the sentence doesn't make sense.

Are you saying it is hanging on the boot logo for a very long time, then it boots normally, but you are not on the new ROM?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nelinski:
Sorry, what i was trying to say was the galaxy s 2 logo shows for about 5 seconds then the phone restarts itself into recovery mode (which is the new kernel included with the resurrection 1.0 flash).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
And now this sentence doesn't make sense.

So when it restarts into recovery, it is stock recovery instead of CWM recovery? Is that what you mean?

Stock recovery will only have like 4 or 5 line entries, with no options to back up/restore. CWM recovery will have substantially more options.

EDIT to add: BTW - did you see under the "Rom Installation (please don`t miss any step! )" section... there is text that says: "NOTE: İF YOU WANT FLASH SOMETHİNG FROM CWM RECOVERY FİRST YOU MUST İNSTALL CWM.ZİP FROM STOCK RECOVERY MOD(APPLY UPDATE FROM EXTERNAL STORAGE AND CHOOSE CWM.ZİP AND İNSTALL)

AND NOW TOUCH RECOVERY MODE WİLL APPEAR THAN YOU CAN FLASH ZİP FİLES"

---------- Post added at 03:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:11 PM ----------

Also, you seem to be mixing up the terms kernel and recovery. They are NOT the same. You should read up on what those two terms actually mean.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nelinski:
"So when it restarts into recovery, it is stock recovery instead of CWM recovery? Is that what you mean?"

Yeah thats what i meant sorry, been a long day lol. I don't really get what the last bit means..

"NOTE: İF YOU WANT FLASH SOMETHİNG FROM CWM RECOVERY FİRST YOU MUST İNSTALL CWM.ZİP FROM STOCK RECOVERY MOD(APPLY UPDATE FROM EXTERNAL STORAGE AND CHOOSE CWM.ZİP AND İNSTALL)

AND NOW TOUCH RECOVERY MODE WİLL APPEAR THAN YOU CAN FLASH ZİP FİLES"

I've got cwm and can flash roms if thats what it means? Sorry for sounding like such a noob..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
So... You know there's also a video guide on installation in that thread too, right? I've never installed this ROM, so I've about reached the limit of how far I can help you if you don't understand that last bit, as you say.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nelinski:
Indeed, i've watched it several times. Thats what i don't get. Everything looks the same, yet i'm the one with the problem lol.

I basically go into custom recovery, install the 3 things (rom, and both gapps), clear the cache and dalvik cache yet it goes freezes on logo then restarts into stock recovery.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Well, only 2 more posts, and you can post in the actual ROM thread to ask for help. Maybe the ROM chef can help you more.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nelinski:

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] PJLLB:
I have two 16 Gb Nook Tablets, both of which are booting off SD cards configured with CyanogenMod-7.2.0-RCO-acclaim-Team B, build GWK74, Android version 2.3.7. I’m seeing a situation that for Google Play, when logged into my Google account on my PC browser, the “My Device” list seems to be “ping-ponging” back and forth between the two devices. I either see one or the other on the My Devices list, but not both at the same time. When a tablet shows up on the list, I can download on a pull from the device (call this tablet #1), but I regularly get an error “Error processing purchase” on the device that’s not on the “My Devices” list (call this #2). If I turn #1 off, then clear the Play Store cache on #2 and restart, it works fine, and it shows on the “My Devices” Google Play list and #1 drops off the list, at which time it I get the Play Store download error on it.

The build.prop ro.product.model, ro.product.brand, and ro.product.manufacturer are difference for each of the tablets, and these entries show up in the Google Play My Devices list (which is how I can see that the ping-ponging is occuring). Further, the Device hostnames and MAC address are different. They are using the same wirelss router, so the Google they are on the same WAN IP address, but in the LAN they are unique.

P.S. Amazon Apps for Android handles the two devices just fine.

Any thoughts on what's going on?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] PJLLB:
Okay, so no responses so I'll ask this another way. Does anyone know how an android device is registered with a Google Play account? What identifying information is used, and where on the device is it located?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] djd338:
Google Play lists mine as "Bn Nook Tablet". I also have an older reference as "Barnes&Noble BNTV250". Hope this helps
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CRE:
The information is taken from your devices build.prop file. There are a couple threads (both recently brought bumped) on modifying the data therein to spoof other devices. Just look for threads with titles pertaining to "build.prop".

Check this one out: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1398310

EDIT: Sorry, I see you're familiar with this much already. The web play store seems to cache the devices based on which have most recently connected via your account.

EDIT2: Oh, nevermind... I've no idea what's going on. Possibly a problem with a "sanity check" on the server trying to prevent duplicate records of the same device?

EDIT3 (yes, 3, sorry, I'm scattered tonight): Have you tried setting the build.prop on one of them to spoof a different model device?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] PJLLB:
I've made the ro.product.build.model, ro.product.brand, and ro.product.manufacturer entries in build.prop unique, and have made the IP device hostname unique. I would have thought that that would have solved this, but these changes did not resolve it. Sigh... If Amazon can get it right, then you would think Google could!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] jzhyok:
I just got my second Galaxy Nexus today, and encountered the same question.

Any solution yet?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] PJLLB:
No solution provided as of yet. I started using two separate gmail accounts, and they see their respective NTs. I'm amazed because Amazon can get it right (it sees the two NTs, both as pure Android devices and NTs with sideloading = four devices) but Google Play can't seem to figure it out. Oh and I can delete devices from Amazon, but not Google Play. Go figure.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] dkb218:
Have you put the question to the owners of the Play store?

wow, i think you have done all that you could do. so the real problem is with google play. i look for the 'easy fix' and i would do the 'two separate email accounts' trick.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] jzhyok:
AH,, for my 2 Nexus, I think the problem is solved now, at least it seems to be solved.

originally, I have 2 Nexus and just like the OP said, when one can download from Play Store, the other one always show "Error processing purchase" when trying to download a new app.

let me name the normal one #1 and the error one #2

I first go to play.google.com, rename #1 to a unique name(originally it should be something like UNKNOWN DEVICE)

then in #2, clear app data and cache for both "Google Play" and "Google Service Framework". Reboot. Go to Play Store, it's like the first run.

Then I check back play.google.com, the #2 already added as a NEW "UNKNOWN DEVICE" and can normally download app in Google Play while #1 is still working fine.

[HTC Inspire 4G] BillTheCat:
Not sure if this is the right forum for this post, but here goes...

I've been using SugarSync for a few months now to see if it works for me the way I need. Now, after flashing a couple ROMs (and reformatting my SD card) for experimentation, I find that the SS website is listing two instances of my Inspire, one has a folder structure and synchronized files, the other does not have anything listed at all.

Unfortunately their system does not delete devices, but merely moves them into a 'recycle' area, so that you can reinstate them later. That's not what I want to do at this point, I'd rather start over "from scratch" by completely purging the two devices and adding my phone.

The reason I want to purge and begin over again is that when I tried to 'restore' my device, I wound up with duplicate pictures, and they were placed in a different path in a folder that was not the original - IOW, instead of using the DCIM/100MEDIA folder, SS was placing the synchronized pictures in the 'My Sugarsync Folders' directory.

Anyway, I have made two attempts at email support and one post on their forum, but none of these attempts have received any response.

Wondering if any of you guys have had this happen to you, and what the solution might be.

[Defy General] UncleDan:
My Defy+ had originally an Android 2.3.4

I successfully flashed many ROMs and happy with CM7 WhiteRabbit.

I decided to restore a nandroid backup of the original firmware 4.5.1-134_DFP-89 just to test if I could go back "just in case".

With great wonder the phone is stuck un Motorola logo even if checksum seems right.

If I re-flash WhiteRabbit the phone boots correctly.

I never flashed a kernel different from the original.

I know I could flash a more recent SBF but could you help me in explaining how is this possbile?

PS: I wiped cache/data/dalvik with no result.
[Defy General] adamo3957:
Some roms like cm7.1 stable contain kernels, ie boot images chances are you've flashed a boot.img(kernel) without knowing

teamwork makes the dream work
[Defy General] UncleDan:
You are right! Now the next (and last) questions.

Can I go back to old firmware without sbf?

How can I discover which ROM flashed the kernel?
[Defy General] adamo3957:
Without knowing the rom you've flashed I can't tell you which have caused it, but if you still have the zips then just open them up the one with the boot.img done it,

Only way back is reflash the sbf unless you made a back up of the boot image when you made your nandroid

teamwork makes the dream work
[Defy General] UncleDan:
The nandroid backup I am trying to restore has a boot.img. When I find which ROM flashed the kernel I will compare and see if it is the right one. Thanks.

EDIT: I found out that I flashed a kernel with maniac's CM7.2 RC1 (I thought it was no kernel like nightlies), but it is different from the one I have in stock image backup. So the question why I am stuck if I restore the nandroid including the kernel remains. I will go on in the study.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwilkinson1998:
Hi there, I had a look at universal xoom boot at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1242241 and I think it works with the UK model of the Wifi only xoom.

I noticed that you have to unlock the bootloader which involves wiping the device. I don't want to do that as I have tons of stuff I want to keep and stuff I can't lose.

I was thinking could you flash it through recovery mode by using the adb command

adb reboot recovery

When it rebooted in recovery there were three options, apply update from SD card, factory reset/wipe and wipe cache. If I put the zip onto an SD card and applied update in recovery will it work? I mean the zip on the universal xoom root page that says to flash cwm.

Has anyone tried this and does it work?

Thanks for any guidance in advanced

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] llama-power:
Don't think it'll work because the locked bootloader/recovery should verify that an update has been created and signed by motorola. If you unlock, your bootloader won't check such signatures if you flash through fastboot, and the modded recoverys will do just about whatever they want;)

However, there may be a way to root your xoom without unlocking, there are enough devices out there that cannot be unlocked at all and are still able to be rooted. As far as I know, no one has tried finding a security flaw in the xooms software so far, though, as it's easy as pie to just unlock the device;)
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hellhound43:
back up then unlock

You have to do OEM unlock do back up to your SD card then adb reboot bootloader then fastboot OEM unlock then flash your recovery.img
