Need help?!

Ok, so I keep getting the red ! when trying to update.

My device IS NOT rooted, but I did run the ASUS bootloader unlock (not really realizing this would break OTA updates) :(

Anyways, I'm not sure how to update to the latest version. I have the .21 file downloaded from the Asus site and also have the .15 (currently running) downloaded too. Yesterday I ran the .15 update in no problem. Today I can't do .21 or even .15 again, just getting the same ! error!

Any ideas how I can get it updated or did I screw myself over my unlocking the bootloader?

Thanks everyone!

EDIT: So I did a factory reset and tried the update but it was still failing. Then I thought maybe it was the microSD card since I had reformatted it last night to ext3, since I was trying to copy a 10GB video file for testing and FAT32 wouldn't allow that. Found another card, placed the .21 update on it and it has now installed properly. :) I am aware that OTA will never work! :( Oh well, kinda feel safer using the file and placing it on the card and running it manually instead! :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lil-devil:
would modifing the keyboard.apk cause problem too?

i mean there is a keyboard mod so the browser key will be a general browser key...

to the post above me

if you unlocked your bootloader, you can't get any OTA updates

and don't even try you might brick your prime =P
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flipper2006:
Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for this thread. Perfect! I was able to downgrade to .15 like it said, reroot and load .21 without a hitch. I must have tried for 2 hours last night over and over and it wouldnt work.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] DaGiff7:
Thanks for that info. I was able to find the exact problem, correct it, and apply the update!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] desean:
Thanks for this information. It was really useful information in helping me update to .21.

To help those to know which file could be the offending app(s), you can refer to this list: http://pastebin.com/WQqbAp8d

I have to apply the OTA a few times as I have replaced/deleted a few system app and each time the log will only list 1 offending app and then terminate the OTA. With this list, you can reduce the number of "updates" you have to apply :D

For those files which I do not have the backup, I got it from this stock .15 ROM: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/19361-stock-94215-for-unlocked-bootloaders/

Also for those who say the log file is blank, I had to copy the log file to the sdcard first and view. Viewing at the original location will just show a blank file.

Happy updating! :p
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lil-devil:
just incase people did not back up their keyboard files when they modded so that the browser button would work with other browers ie opera, chrome and etc

i uploaded the stock keyboard.apk and the keyboard.odex (you have to unzip this one)

without this, it will also cause problems to updating!!

put this in /system/app/

adb method to restore stock

adb push Keyboard.apk /sdcard/
adb push Keyboard.odex /sdcard/
adb shell
su
cd /system/app
rm Keyboard.*
cp /mnt/sdcard/Keyboard.apk ./Keyboard.apk
cp /mnt/sdcard/Keyboard.odex ./Keyboard.odex
chmod 644 Keyboard.apk
reboot

Hope this helps =]
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pvdwaal:
Thanks! These 2 actions solved my problem.

I once changed some build props and update just wouldn't go on.

Restore with 15 fixed my problem AFTER I remormatted it :)

To regain root:

- in .15 reinstall: use rootkeeper

- update to .21

- start rootkeeper and reroot

- start tiberium backup. I got a message that device was rooted, but not optimal. And indeed some apps couldn't get fully root access. TB fixed this for me.

- reboot
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lock-N-Load:
I had to move log file to SD card to view it thanks to above tip

it showed me the GoogleQuickSearchBox app I had replaced was an issue

it showed me the Launcher2 app I had replaced was an issue

rolled back these 2 and it finally updated

I suggest anyone review their log files before doing anything else as it will tell you what failed

BTW, root was not a culprit so temp unroot or leaving root had/has no effect and neither did/does my WPA2 file.... all the more reason to consult your log
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] alvintc:
So my problem is AWS is missing (why would I want A's web storage?!).

Anyone advise the idiots method? I'm rooted & rootkeeper in place, I guess going via .15 is the best method but how do you "downgrade"?

Thanks in advance!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Messycreampie:
Do you need to be unrooted to apply .21 update if you are failing the update?

This is my fail code... applying patch to /system/app/PlusOne.apk

"/system/app/PlusOne.apk" is already target; no patch needed
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lock-N-Load:
Root is not the issue

Only system tampering causes these issues & that error is telling you precisely why it failed... it can't find that. As you removed it.

BTW I noticed you can getcseveral errors but each log only shows 1 so you have to run installer & if it fails then read log & then try it all again & hope to not get another error. As you can see above 8 had to run the install 3 times as first 2 failed but each log only shows 1 issue at a time.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Messycreampie:
Ok thanks for the help. I just reinstalled the .15 update than redid the new OTA a lot easier and less hassle. Thanks again.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] 12un4:
Hi,

your guide helped me a lot, i was started to get nervous why the update fails over and over.

So thanks for a closer look to the cause :)

BTW, the update is very nice any the new HDMI scaled mode gives me opportunity to use my Prime on a 23'' screen flawlessly, just like normal OS :) The notification and buttons were really lacking in previous versions. Now if only the Prime would have possibility to upscale on HDMI to 1080pHD.

Only serious development support lacks on Android and i don't need PC for travelling and university anymore. Although AIDE starts to feel like a nice first pioneer IDE.

Sorry for a little offtopic, but couldn't help myself, as i am really happy with my Prime in all ways.

Cheers

Installed .15 from SD card and could install .21. You guys rock!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] urnild:
I have the same problem. I deleted Google+ and some other app. I have no idea what the other app was. Is there a list I can crosscheck with and see which app I dont have. I dont want to install .15 and repeat the entire process.

I would really appreciate any help :)

Thanks

did you even take any effort in reading? Not reading thoroughly is very dangerous for fiddling with your Prime as we do not have a flashing tool like Odin for Samsung devices.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] xBIGREDDx:
I'm running CM9 arcee SK3, and like all the other ICS roms, it doesn't have video acceleration. What I'm wondering is, what changed between Gingerbread and ICS that broke this?

Also, given that the Xoom is also Tegra 2 and it has an official ICS rom, is there any way that could be used to bring acceleration to the G2x?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Klathmon:
so, in gingerbread (and all versions of android before it) all video was done by software. this makes it slow ALOT slower than with hardware acceleration. i wont get too intense with the reasons, but basically it lets the GPU do like 100 calculations at once (hardware) instead of 1 at a time (software).

This means that it is MUCH less CPU and GPU intensive to render video. So the developers of Ice Cream Sandwitch (Google, not rom devs here) decided to make it mandatory so that it could be heavily integrated into the phone. (making things like 1080p video recording MUCH easier with a higher framerate).

They also made all of the UI rendering need Hardware Acceleration. now, im fairly sure the developers got HA for the UI working on this phone by doing the equivalent of writing their own drivers (no small feat). however Hardware Acceleration for video still does not have these drivers. (and we probably wont be able to dev them up, being as Video Encoding/Decoding is much more complex then just rendering a UI).

Now as for the Xoom, while it is Tegra, it's a different version of the chip, and because of this nothing useful can be shared between the 2.

Now, if you want video encoding to be done the old way, there are apps from the market that do it, i know MX video player is one that has a software rendering option and i think there is at least 1 video recorder that does it by software. Either way, until we get hardware support, there are options.

TL;DR: Its not broke, its just new, and we dont have the drivers for this new 'feature'.:D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] joeyxl:
Yeah, it's not to fun. I cant wait till we have it going! Just bought an extended battery!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xBIGREDDx:
Thanks, Klathmon, everything makes a lot more sense now.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jrcannon:
Hello,

I am new to the Galaxy Nexus and 4.0. I traded for a Nexus and it appears to be a unlocked engineering model currently running 4.0.1

I flashed the newest version of clockwork recovery on and see that the new 4.0.4 for GSM was released today. I am reading a lot of back and forth regarding the compatibility of the release so I figured I would check here before I dig in.

Am I able to simply put the 4.0.4 GSM release on my SD and wipe/flash using Clockwork install from zip? or is there something I am missing.

I don't care about losing all my data. I would appreciate any help guys!

Model Number: Galaxy Nexus (ENGINEERING)

Android Version: 4.0.1

Baseband version: I9250UGKKA

Kernel version: 3.0.1-ga052f63

android-build@apa28 #1

Build number: ITL41F.I9250UGKKA
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
the 4.0.4 OTA is a upgrade from 4.0.2. you need 4.0.2 as a prequisite and its for "yakju" devices, verify if your device is 'yakju' it says Galaxy Nexus but 'yakjuxw' has Galaxy Nexus.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...SwxLDEsImRlLmNicnVlZ2cub2ZmaWNpYWx1cGRhdGUiXQ.. use that to check.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jrcannon:
thanks for the quick reply. Where do I find if this is YAKJU or not, bootloader?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jrcannon:
.....learn to read
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
re-read my post.. i included a link to a app that tells you how to find out.

edit: lol you insulted yourself :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jrcannon:
Looks like I am on yakjuux. Am I able to move to jakju 4.0.2 and then update to 4.0.4?

Sorry for the back and forth I just need to get the various version straight before I start going crazy flashing
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Would you mind doing a couple of things before you flash anything please?

1) Could you check the version of your bootloader? Reboot into the bootloader and read it from there. If you have an engineering version, I'd REALLY appreciate a dump before you flash anything over it.

2) Could you dump your radio? If you don't know how to do it, I can guide you through it. You need root.

We haven't been able to get ahold of any engineering bootloaders/radios yet, and it seems you lucked out.

It would be very much appreciated!!! Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Any news? Can you dump your radio and bootloader for us?

[Motorola Photon 4G] DestroyerMTL:
Hi all,

I've searched the forums on this topic and have yet to come up with a satisfactory answer. I've had a look outside XDA as well.

My question (and some background) is:

I've recently changed carriers from Optus to Vodafone here in Australia and while I had no issues with my Photon working with Optus data, the APN for Vodafone simple will not stick. I've read that it has to do with carriers using non-sprint MCC/MNC (Vodas are 505 and 03). So my question is, if I root the photon and pop a custom ROM onto it, is this APN issue likely to be resolved?

Thanks in advance for any help.

I'm not new to flashing ROMs on my Evo, however your forums here are a little more cryptic. My son rooted his phone and flashed CWM and a Cyan Rom. He would like to return to rooted stock. Can someone point me in the direction of the latest OTA Stock Rooted Rom for the Samsung Galaxy S Epic II 4G? He apparantlly followed some video tutorial yada yad yada. I realize ROMs are probably flashed thru the recovery console, is flashing similar to flashing on an Evo from that point? (Boot to recovery -> work your way to Flash from Zip ...)

Thanks in advance.

Here you go

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1433101

Instructions are on that page, just make sure you use the full restore, and not the preserve data or you can brick. At the current point we don't have a kernel built from source yet, because of this, you must flash back to stock rooted EL29 via ODIN OC or you will brick. I highly suggest you read my thread in my signature because flashing anything ICS for this phone can be extremely dangerous and will brick your phone if you aren't sure what your doing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] noobtoob:
Just to be sure you are looking at the right thread, please go to settings>about phone. Make sure model number is SPH-D710. I only say this cause I haven't heard of a Cyan ROM, and (not trying to be a jerk), most people refer to this phone as the epic 4g touch. You got something weird up there, and there are at least 20 different versions of this phone (galaxy s2).
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MeWarning:
Could he have meant Cyanogen?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] thebbbrain:
Yes, that is what I meant by Cyan.

Thanks for the links and tips guys, I will check it out tonight.

Short version is this is the Galaxy 2 from Sprint, the one with the long bastardized name. Took forever to find this forum cause I was looking for something closer in name.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patrao_n:
Yes it is the bastardized sprint Samsung galaxy s2. Word to the wise stay on this forum. Any other galaxy s2 forum especially international will have a huge possibility of turning the phone into a nice little paper weight. I have to say thanks for taking the time to find out. We have had a bunch of people come through here with paper weights wondering what happened because they didn't bother to read

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] thebbbrain:
Is there a flashable zip or whatever you guys use on the Epic somewhere that I can just copy to the sd card vs going thru ADB etc as in the link from above? The phone is already rooted, I don't want to lose root, just load a stock rooted rom on the phone.

Thanks.

Just read the entire OP twice. It's really simple. It will return you back to stock rooted gingerbread EL29

Edit: just realized its the same link. This is not adb. It's an odin one click package. Basically download the file and press a button and you're done
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brholmes:

I would follow the posted thread as.. a.) It is the safest way since lots of people have been bricking their phone via flashes b.) This will return the phone to the stock ROM, but it will remain rooted.

Thanks guys(gals?) I'll be trying this tomorrow!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BrandoKC:
Watch the qbking77 video and you'll be golden. It should be linked in the post. Really easy once you figure it out.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] thebbbrain:
Ok, reporting back.

First we tried the 'don't overwrite data' option, everything appeared to be ok until the phone rebooted. It sat on the 4G splash screen in a continual restarting state for about ten minutes. We tried flashing that twice. After that we tried flashing the factory restore with root option, that worked just fine.

Thanks again for the input.

Now he'll have to restore all of his desired apps, but that's his problem, since I told him not to root in the first place. LOL.

Hello,

I've been trying to use tethering of my 3G phone to get WiFi on my Prime. I am using an app from the market that creates an Adhoc network to do the tethering. The app is working fine as I verified by connecting my Laptop to my phone's 3G and got it working.

The Transformer Prime detects the Ad Hoc network but just doesn't want to connect to it! :confused:

Any suggestions?

from README file :

additional note :

- this patch for samsung's GT-S5360_GB_Opensource_Update2.zip kernel source

- this thread is about patch, not custom kernel. i include kernel test build only to make easy if someone need test it. so please don't request features like a2sd, cwm,etc.

- this patch is alpha quality. i already testing (>2 days) before submit here. but some of patch work on low level system and maybe effect on long term usage. until it fully tested, use only for testing purpose and remove from your device when done.

- i make small mistake in "apply kernel" part on README file inside archive. i already corrected the one in this thread. sorry.

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 Android Development] mai77:
no. instead of patching a binary, we patch the kernel source code.

with this kernel we should be able to find out, whether clockspeed changes are working.

for that purpose, some PROPER and accurate benchmarking may be performed.

you need apply patch to kernel source and rebuild. that source patch, not binary patch. but you can't make sgy work on 200Mhz or 1Ghz. 312,624,832 is not random number, it's multiple of 26mhz (or 13mhz) which is base frequency of sgy.
