I keep banging my head against the exact same set of circumstances. I downloaded all of my files directly from the cyanogen wiki. I rooted my device first with SuperOneClick. Assuming that this might be the problem, I then SBFed it back to stock, and rerooted it verbatim per the instructions on the wiki and the cyano build... and continue to get the same results.
[Droid 2 General] pomeroythomas:
It took a bit of digging around in the CyanogenMod forums, but you have to be on the latest .sbf (2.3.3?). CyanogenMod 7.2 is based on the Gingerbread kernel and won't work over the top of a Froyo installation. Though I hear that you can't just flash nightlies (or any update, for that matter) over the top of it. You'll have to .sbf either way. This really sucks for me because I've got to re-flash my phone back to cricKet wireless (an hour process; manual flashing sucks) every time I .sbf as it sets everything back to the VZW defaults.
[Xoom General] Max334:
Hi Guys,

I am not sure if I am posting in the right place, but I could use some assistance on the Team EOS nightlies. They won't let me post in the DEV section yet, becuase I am mostly reader, not a poster. Anyway....

I've been running the EOS roms for a while, but I can't seem to run any nightly past 74. 74 runs great, when I tried to update to 75 (rom/gapps/wipe cache) it won't get past the "DUAL CORE" logo. I thought I bricked my xoom, but I am able to boot to recovery, reflash 74 (gapps/wipe) and it boot with no issue. I did a full wipe, and tried again with 76 but no joy (77 wasn't out at the time). I thought it was a problem with n75 and n76. I flashed back to n14 and it works fine, and I can upgrade back to n74. Tonight I tried to update again to n77, but still no dice. I let it sit for 15 minutes at the "Dual Core" logo, and all I noticed is that is got warm, but still no boot.

Any thoughts? All advise is welcome!

BTW, this is for a Stingray 4g xoom

And while I have your attention, I love the work you guys do, and this community, it really makes Android something special!
[Xoom General] bigrushdog:
Weird. Try going into fastboot and do a full wipe of userdata, cache, and system. Then install. If need be, do a backup. This will totally wipe your device.
[Xoom General] dellenrules:
Wipe cache, wipe dalvik, flash ROM, flash GAPPS, fix permissions. Do it in that order and you should be fine.

Also make sure your using the latest GAPPS. It should be dated 2012-03-17.

Good Luck.
[Xoom General] Max334:
Still not working right, very frustrated, but I have new information

Thanks to both of you. I did try this. What I have discovered so far is that some of the flashing fun I have been doing with my may have caused so minor issues with my external SD Card. I backed up the internal to it, and pulled it. I went through the process of nuking the xoom entirely. I.E. Wiped Cache, dalvik, full wipe, factory reset, reset permission, and deleted everything off the internal SD (wasn't in this order, but it all got done) I was able to flash N77, without GAPPS fine. It seemed to run faster with nothing else installed. Rebooted a few times, no problem. I was stoked. I flashed gapps, 03-17 version (the latest). factory reset again so that it was fresh and wiped the cache (just in case). It booted again no problems, ran me through initial config, and then began downloading my apps back. It seemed to run much faster than it ever did before.

Then I rebooted it, without doing any titanium backup restores, just fresh tablet, N77 with my 90 or so apps freshly installed from the market, and it froze again at the "Dual Core" boot screen. I waited hoping for some delayed joy, but none came.

So I went back through the process once again, factory reset, N77 install, wipe cache, install GAPPs. Booted.....initial config, auto downloaded 90 apps from market, reboot......dead.

So then I just flashed N74 again, wiped cache, install GAPPS, initial config, app download.....reboot.......works fine.

<general frustration directed at tablet, not anyone here/>

What gives???? I can't tell what the difference in internal apps in the ROM are that could be conflicting with the ones installed from the market.

Why the hell is N74 working and N77 not, when the apps in both ROMs look the same?

Why does N77 work great when the apps aren't restored?????

Why don't I make a million dollars?????

Why aren't I emperor of the universe???????????????

</general frustration directed at tablet, not anyone here>

Thanks much for all your help!
[Xoom General] joshndroid:
alright.... i have 2 suggestions these may not work and the second one is a pain in the butt to do but it got me out of a jam way back when i lost my softkeys no matter what i flashed

firstly.. in the sequence of your flashing throw in the 'format /system' see if that has any effect it is 'possible' the system is not being flashed correctly or it could be possible that it is getting corrupted and causing the bootloops (i always format system when full wiping)

second... and this is a pain.. but you can always try flashing back to STOCK... there could be other factors that aren't being flashed or fixed correctly causing ya problems... you can then go through the process and flash directly to the latest build... as i noted earlier this fixed a problem that nothing else could for me and has helped others but really this is a last last resort as it takes alot of time and screwing around

lastly... i have no idea sorry these are all i can input.. if possible can always try and use logcat while booting to see what is causing the crash if im not mistaken and upload a log and one of the devs may be able to have a look at it...
[Xoom General] fkntwizted:
I Would stop dinking around with n77 and go to n90 I had the same issues around those nightly numbers, so I went all the way back to stock... (honeycomb) didn't fix it but I redid the whole install on a higher number and it seems to work itself out..... long story short try another maybe the 1.0 stable by them.
[Xoom General] dellenrules:
He has the STINGRAY not the WINGRAY Xoom.

N77 is the latest for the 4G version. The version he has.

Read the OP
[Xoom General] Max334:
EOS Nightlies hate my xoom, my Xoom wanted CM9 I guess

Thanks much for this. I had already attempted the formatting of everything except the SD card before.....but for sh*ts and giggles I tried it one more time. unfortunately that didn't work.

Using the second option, of reverting stock, I went through sleeplessnija's tutorial on reverting. It really didn't seem that bad, taking me longer to setup my work machine than it did to send the fastboot commands. I was able to get it to boot stock (of course I didn't re-lock it) just fine, and it was quick....so it seems like my hardware is fine.

I used fastboot to put the replacement tiamat recovery, and formatted everything in the mounts menu again. I also mounted my SD card as USB storage and used the full format for it under windows. Then i copied N77 and GAPPS back to it, and re-installed them. It got to the second boot logo (first was the shaking team eos, the second is the square thing with rounded corners that moves). It hung for about 10 minutes, and I shut it off. annoyed.

So I went back into recovery, mounted my SD for USB access from my desktop, and copied the unofficial (which I think is now official) CM9 distro from Team Rogue (Steady's Rom I believe?). I formatted everything, and wiped everything (except the SD) again, and installed CM9 and gapps. Booted fine. Configured account, downloaded 90 apps, rebooted, no problems. Played with it for a while, rebooted....no problems.

I like that my xoom is back up and running......however it seemed that Steadies rom is just a little less fully featured than Team EOS. THAT IS NOT A KNOCK AGAINST TEAM ROGUE OR CM9.....my Xoom is working again (so far) thanks to him (them), and I run CM9 on my AT&T GSII. I just really like Team EOS on my Xoom, and have been with them since the beginning. I would love to know why my xoom suddenly hates the latest nightlies (everything since 74).

Edit: I forgot to ask, Joshndroid.....you mentioned running logcat to see what going on. If it can't boot past the dual core logo or the second boot logo from Team EOS....how do I get the logs? I am not familiar with android's logging.....even though I am a flash-a-holic. I am just thinking that if this is happening to me, maybe I can help out the devs (and myself, and maybe someone else) with the log output.

Edit 2: And Josh.....I forgot to tell you .....good call on the revert to stock answer. I didn't think about that before and thought I was screwed!

Thanks!!

Hey all,

Need some help figuring this out. Im running TN ics goodness, no matter which version or kernal i get about double the awake time as screen on time. Cpu spy doesnt always agree with the sys battery stats for awake time. Also, better battery stats doesnt highlight a certain problem, although i havent researched much on reading the wakelocks and process stats.

Where should i start? What can i post to get some help?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TeamERA:
Look for apps syncing, and when wifi is on I find my phone stays awake more, and thats with all syncs off even.

Also there are so many things that can cause wake locks, I even stopped using tegrak on ics ( several reasons) but it kept cpu on about 2% more. Some apps you may not use everyday may also do this. Its hard to narrow it down 100%.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
In my sig is the goodness discussion thread. Post in there and give us what versions your running and we can help you. How did you install for one?

Hello Everyone

I tried searching for any topic related to what I'm asking, but I couldn't find anything. I've done google searches also, and although I have found some stuff, it was either too complicated or was for pc users.

I have an iMac, and I got my Rezound over a week ago. I love my phone, but I want it to be just a bit better.

I just want to remove all the bloatware that is on the phone. All I'm wanting, is for it to be faster and to improve on battery life.

Don't want ROMs, I can wait for the ICS update, and if it never comes or comes in Fall, I wouldn't mind; since my real upgrade date is in November.

Can someone please provide instructions on the easiest way for Mac users to remove the bloatware that is on the phone?

Please help.

Thank you.

I just noticed this video:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SirWizzAlot:
As a person who holds his devices with a cobra clutch AND happens to stumble across "lost" devices regularly, how does this benefit ME?!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] nyydynasty:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] TOA Duck:
I guess it doesn't. Maybe you could try to find the rightful owners.

Why the lost in quotation marks. sounds shady. :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SirWizzAlot:
As the old adage goes, finders keepers...you know the rest. The implications of this are too great! What If, unbeknownst to him, a guy buys a stolen device only to find that it doesn't work because the carrier has blacklisted his device? Its unfair to leave Joe Schmoe out in the cold! They should just stick to sim-blocking, its not like the carriers lose any money when a device is stolen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] adelvillar:
It's a good step but it doesn't address the fact that your stolen phone can be used in a different country.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ou812bkewl:
This is largely the reason that people steal cellphones to begin with.

If it can't be used, then eventually Joe Schmoe will realize he can't just buy a stolen phone expecting it to work. If the thieves can't sell it, then it is only useful for the data contained within, which really kills the profitability of stealing it in the first place. This eventually leads to fewer stolen phones. Finders keepers? Sounds like you may be a bus or taxi driver. Taxi drivers can sell phones they "find" in their cabs for a higher price if its not wiped or locked. I know if I leave my phone somewhere or if it falls out of my pocket, I want it to be of no use to anyone else, ever. Except for dialing 911.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jpgalaxy:
While I agree that the carriers should be more responsible when it comes to stolen/lost devices, I think there should be SOME sort of way to use them again. Maybe a re-activation fee after 90 days of it reported lost/stolen or something along those lines. This would be the best of both worlds as it would hopefully deter thieves as they wouldn't be able to sell the phones RIGHT AWAY, but yet the phones aren't just wasted.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] kristikaty:
I for one am glad they are finally doing this. Had my original Captivate stolen when it was only 4 months old, right out of my purse. With cell phone companies finally attempting to stop the thieves, hopefully thefts will dwindle. I plan on adding my old Cappie's IMEI# to the database as soon as I can... Just because (even though it was stolen 16 months ago).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Divine_Madcat:
So? Stolen property is stolen property. You get in trouble with receiving other stolen goods, there is no reason why this should be different. If my phone gets stolen, i want it deader than a doornail; NO ONE else should have the right to use it again.

As it is, it takes all of two min to call the carrier, and verify the IMEI before buying; anyone who won't give it to you before hand should not be purchased from.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Red5:
This is a good point. Take the battery out of the phone you want to purchase and call the cell carier and have them run the IMEI to make sure its not stolen.

Well played.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] chvybeatsford:
What stops one from be-n a prick and selling u a phone then calling it stolen? Guess u will now want a bill of sale when buying a phone. Me I just always buy brand new and never have to worry. I do like the idea of someone not able to use a stolen device,incase I ever lose line.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] movielover76:
That's pretty far fetched, maybe if someone really hated you they'd do that but why would you buy from that guy anyway, their is nothing to gain for the seller in reporting a sold phone as stolen, and in cases like ebay etc would only lead to bad feedback, it's not a big issue.

I'd just like to see them make the database internet searchable, so I don't have to call and wait on hold to check an IMEI, I buy and sell used phones regularly.

I'll be honest it was nice and easy to buy used AT&T and T-mobile phones without this, Verizon and Sprint always had this with ESN's and you have to be more careful purchasing them used.

But reducing cellphone theft is worth the hassle.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] chvybeatsford:
Honestly its not that far fetched. The world a live has allot of people doing stupid things..

If one was to sell phone he can easily call it in stolen to police and possible get it back..then re sell once again..double his/her profits.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] thephoneguyusa:
Well put. Another scenario would be for someone to sell the phone wait a couple days and then report it stolen and get a new one via insurance for $50 or so then keep the rest as profit.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Divine_Madcat:
You bring this up as if it were something new....People can and do, do this already. I As it is, Verizon and Sprint already blacklist stole devices....This just stops scum from using stolen goods on smaller carriers (like cricket).

Oh, and an if somebody DOES pull the crap you describe, then take his happy but to the police and get him charged with filing a false report..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] chvybeatsford:
IM just saying the way the world has turned best to get done bill of sale or receipt if buy local and cash. Online sales it covered buy the method u pay usually.

This is great that they are doing it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Divine_Madcat:
Well sure, always get proof of purchase... but that has nothing to do with this; what you suggested could happen regardless.

As it is, i really think phones themselves should "self terminate" upon report of theft. Even if they can't use it, i would rather my data not be at risk. Some way to have the phone wipe itself then turn off would be excellent..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Lamperouge2:
Wow, good to know. Lost a few iphones in the past. Sad to hear people enjoy causing others pain.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SirWizzAlot:
Not a taxi driver, just a person fortunate enough to benefit when others slack. And when people buy phones second hand, they don't automatically assume that it was a stolen device. They shouldn't have to pay such a steep price because the original owner lost or got their phone stolen. This proposed law wouldn't deter thefts anyway. I have devices (phones, tablets) that don't use data but solely wifi...But seriously, as long as property exists, someone will try to take it. No new laws will stop that.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AcmeWidgets:
This is the right thing to do, and should've been done from the get go.

But, I don't have too much faith in the carriers. I used to work for a carrier.

They were all to happy to activate a stolen phone. They saw it as a way to gain a new user. The victim would buy a new phone anyway. We were not allowed to cooperate with the police either. The thief would activate a new account. They may say they're going to do this; but as I said, I wouldn't hold my breath.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] avus_m3:
Another failed experiment...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] kristikaty:
Agreed. AT&T was less than sympathetic when my brand-new Captivate was stolen. I knew at the time that it did not benefit them to help me get my phone back. They of course just wanted me to buy a new phone for 500 bucks, and I would not give them that satisfaction.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] johnf440:
How has it taken this long for the carriers to do this? Talk about not giving a crap about customers...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sgoatr:
Business Only...

They could give two sheets about the users stolen property.. this was developed purely to stop the insurance fraud on eBay Craigslist and other popular selling sites.

They thought that raising the deductibles would work and it did not.

Att covers my lte Samsung tablet. But you have to sign an affidavit swearing you no longer have the device when you make a claim.

99% of the time I called in for a claim it was "lost/stolen" regardless of the facts. Then you turn around and sell the device to cover the deduct.

This is now a thing of the past.

The block is similar to the bad ESN. If the device is reported via ATT it will still work on other gsm networks.

But one thing is certain. This is to protect the COMPANY not us users regardless. Long story short i will not be buying any more phones bought from a third party without thoroughly testing it. I highly suggest this practice to anyone that reads this.

Its as simple as inserting your sim and making a 2-5 minute call or downloading a file or app from a data network. That should trigger the blacklist because it won't be apparent immediately. If you are unable to test then do not make the purchase.

Also to add to the fun I no longer have insurance on my phone because I've had to make two claims within a 6month period on one device).(very bad luck) they have removed the feature from my account(including the monthly charge) and I will not be able to insure this device for at least 12 more months.

Hope my info helps someone.
