Sorry for being thick, so what is the outcome if I used the V 1.0.... what is the outcome if the Kernel/bootloader is not flashed? What effect will this have. I have seen mine boot repeatedly since the update a few times.

Do the bootloader fixes work, as I think some people are reporting problems?

cheers
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Lizard:
Depends on which version you flashed. If you flashed the nokernel version, only the bootloader will not be updated, but the only difference between those is the version string.

If you flashed the normal version the kernel is also not flashed, which could mean some stability fixed might not be applied.

I flashed my own normal ww bootloader fix which worked fine.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] dgcruzing:
Ok, I will be thick and ask..

If I flash the updated 1.1 no kernel full update..it should work?

As really you have only changed a string in it..

V1 worked so really V1.1 should just flash over top..as I haven't changed anything..

Anyone flashed V1.1 non kernel full update yet and got it to install?

sent from yet another MikG HTC Evo
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Lizard:
Ehm, no. Since you already successfully flashed the 1.0 of the nokernel update, the only thing you should flash to be 'complete' is the nokernel bootloader fix. but you can skip that, since it's only a version number change.

Flashing the full 1.1 update won't work, since the script will fail at checking prerequisites.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] dgcruzing:
If it an't broke, then dont play with it.. lol..

its working fine.. and if its got the correct bootloader in already and its only a naming convention. no drama, leave it until the next one..
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] lemonoid:
Can I flash v1.1 if I'm coming from 9.2.1.11? I'm on stock rooted. Never flashed custom ROM or OTA on this tablet. I was waiting until more support was available for SBKv2 and now that is so I'm trying to update to the newest version and start flashing some custom ROMs. I do have the newest version of CWM installed. Oh and I've had the OTA ready to install through DMClient but I was told it messes up if I'm rooted. So I'm just gonna flash through CWM. But I can clear my data in DMCLIENT before hand and it won't screw anything up will it?

That's really strange. I just installed this file myself, since it's just the bootloader update and it worked 100%. I'm starting to thing this is a CWM related issue. I'm still using ClockworkMod Recovery v3.2.0.1 roach-tf101-r1 from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1213723

I never installed newer versions, since I like to be able to install from the external microsd.

I really want to find the incompatibility here...
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] myeepad:
Thanks for the great work, Lizard.

Yes, I use Rogue 1.5.0 r1, the same error code and aborted when I tried to flash the bootloader fix.

I'll go try other CWM recovery and see.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] farsight73:
I use rburrow's Rogue XM Touch Recovery v1.5.0-R1 (CWM-based Recovery v5.0.2.8) and flashing the .27 update was fine but not the .27 bootloader. Not really sure if it's CWM related issue here.. This CWM can also use external microSD.

Don't know what's its cause, but taking Lizard's advice and flashed with Roach CWM 3.2.0.1 and the bootloader fix flashed without any problem.

Anyone knows how to check whether the bootloader version is right?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Lizard:
I've sent you a PM, if you would like to test something...

Reboot the TF101 and press volume down. at the top of the screen should be the bootloader version.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] farsight73:
Done testing.. it was a succesfull flashed! Cold boot showing [Stated: Released by "WW_epad-9.2.1.27-20120615"]. Does this correct new bootloader? Could you explain why it failed on the ealier version ww-9.2.1.27-bootloader-CWM-nokernel-v1.0?

Anyway.. it's an awesome work and support you put there.. thanks!

P/S: I was about to revert back earlier CWM version but clearly you nail it right this time!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] dgcruzing:
Let us know when that version is up and i will try to flash too.

I am on touch recovery too.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Lizard:
Ok, thanks for testing! The updated string means indeed you've got the correct new bootloader, even if it's just a version number change.

Ok, to quickly summarize what went wrong, the way I write the blob files to the tf101 was not understood by all recoveries it seems.

After investigating there are multiple ways to do this.

My older recovery works both ways, that's why I didn't discover this inconsistency.

Anyway, for the people still interested, I've updated all bootloader fixes in the OP to v1.1.

Let's hope Asus will bring another update soon, so we can forget this one. ;)

I was still on a version prior to 9.2.1.17. I haven't found many 'full' cwm update zips about, mostly they are incremental patches like in the OP.

The latest 'full' one I could find is here:

http://www.xdafileserver.nl/index.p...+(TF101)/ROMS/Stock+Roms+by+gee+one/With+Root

I flashed that then each of Lizard's incremental zips in order, with a boot inbetween each, and it seems fine.

Not sure if I ended up with root or not but Voodoo Rootkeeper restored from its backup OK.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] idcrisis:
Hi Lizard,

Thanks for this thread.

I'm trying to do this on the TF101G.

Can you explain your procedure for generating these CWM flashable files please?

I am assuming you take the /cache/dlpkgfile and then remove the recovery partition using the blobtools. Then how do you create the CWM flashable file?

Also any pointers as to how this can be done with a full firmware downloaded from Asus firmware site?

I would ideally like a CWM flashable full OTA update which can be applied using CWM and will update the tablet while keeping the data.

Hence a complete OTA replacement for tablets on CWM recovery for whom the standard OTA is failing. This will also have the advantage of never losing root upon surprise patches from Asus.

Any pointers at all very welcome.

Cheers.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Lizard:
It's not that hard, the dlpkgfile file is actually a zip file.

What I basically do is this:

- Extract the blob file from the zip, and use blobunpack to extract all parts from the blob (bootloader, kernel and recovery)

- Then I use blobpack to create a new blob without the recovery.

- I put this new blob file in the zip file replacing the previous blob.

- Then I edit the updater-script for some changes, commenting some checks out and using a different way to write the blob.

- lastly I remove some unneeded stuff like certificates/signing stuff.

That's how I create the cwm files in a nutshell.

The full update from Asus' server could be converted to a cwm as well, but almost everything is in a huge blob file which makes it a bit harder to convert. there's a system blob as well which is an ext4 file image which overwites /system.

It might be possible that the unlocker tool bypasses it because it works via fastboot.

Even if it could (reset your counts), it doesnt have a mode as it unlocks it directly.

Edit: see above, it does bypass it completely.
[Streak 5 General] BerryCodes:
To reset the code counter back do this:

1. Test the phone for free whether it is "unlockable". Download the software for that here: http://www.unlockstreak.com/pages/download-dell-streak-unlock-software

2. Do the real unlock with a registration code to use the software. So you have to order one from the website: http://www.unlockstreak.com

3. Repeat the unlock with the same registration code but add the word ",unblock" behind it. For example, if your registration code is called ABCDEFGHIJ, then the second time you would use ABCDEFGHIJ,unblock. You might have to repeat the procedure a few times until it is fully unblocked.

That's it.

[HTC Amaze 4G] mexxxico:
Nexus prime animations does not have any HTC logo.

1. Check downloaded zip's for error

2. Did you rename the new animation as old

3. Have you copied the animation to the right place

3. Permissions rw-, r--, r-- (are you system have a r/w permission?)

All the animations I have personally tested and all work well.
[HTC Amaze 4G] misfit61871:
Yep, I put them in system/customize/resource, fixed perms, I have DL'd them 3 times from your links. The only thing I did not do was rename them because the stock anims were named "bootanimation.zip" and "downanimation.zip", when I DL'd yours the names were the same, so I deleted the stock anims and replaced with yours. That's what I don't get I have done this before many times and it worked and now all of the sudden they don't, it's weird.

[HTC Amaze 4G] CalicoJeb:
Try system/media and set permissions, I'm on CapRomBeta, and although the originals are in /customize/resource saw someone suggest putting also in system/media and my bootanimation works from there.

(hope I got the folder sequence right, but u will see them)

Still cannot get the downani to work yet though :-)

Just like you I have done this Many times before without seeing this issue - I'm no Dev, pure novice, but someone might be able to say if it has anything to do with odexed vs deodexed roms - CapRomBeta is odexed, I changed it on ARHD 2.2.1 with no problems.
[HTC Amaze 4G] misfit61871:
Ya, I installed ROM toolbox pro, DL'd the nexus bootanimation from that c/p'd to /system/media, set perms to rwxr-xr-x and that is working, but no down anim either.

And I'm running the ICS stock RUU so I know it's odexed, which may have something to do with it, but IDK, I'm no dev either just a hacker lol
[HTC Amaze 4G] CalicoJeb:
If you gonna stay with the stock look and Really want your bootanimations to work, and to change both at will, you should use ARHD 2.2.1 looks stock but much performs better.

For anyone having trouble with boot animations, I found this thread in the Droid Incredible 2 sub-forum.

Hope this helps!

Nice - I looked at the default.xml in CapRomBeta and only had to rename the bootanimation.zip to TMOUS_bootanimation.zip & TMOUS_downanimation.zip because they are in the correct folder, just had those names in the .xml - works now.

[HTC Amaze 4G] misfit61871:
Ok so I got this new one working partially from the system/customize/resource lie it should the only problem is it starts then after a couple second it just turns into a white screen. Oh and I had to add "TMOUS_" to the name.

[HTC Amaze 4G] CalicoJeb:
Yeah I thought about that but I know its a pain - so I went with ICS Pro from the Play Store, not a full screen dialer but close enough, I can live with it till AOSP is real.

Still dunno why the bootanimations will not play through for you, once I found correct path and names in .xml they work fine 4 me, sure you have the permissions correct?
[HTC Amaze 4G] misfit61871:
Well I got it working now, I tried editing the default.xml as well by taking TMOUS_ of the name and nothing then I put it back and added to the file in resource and it worked but would go to a white screen after 2 seconds then boot.

I did a search last night and found a nexus-prime-real.zip and installed that and it works perfect, the weird thing is that it is for a device with a bigger screen cause the desc.txt says 720 1280 24 p0 0 0 part0.

I'm gonna try plugging the jpg's into an image converter and make them all png's 540x960 and see if it still works.
[HTC Amaze 4G] misfit61871:
I am attaching two files, the original nexus prime boot animation that I finally got working from system/customize/resource, and the one I modified to fit the amaze screen resolution.

It's funny b/c the nexus prime anim worked great but the res was for a bigger screen, so I took that, extracted it and converted all the images to 540x960 .png (they were originally .jpg). I also edited the desc.txt accordingly and tried changing the fps to: 15, 20, 24 and 30, each time I got the same result, reboot, anim would run for about 2 seconds then turn to a white screen til booted.

So I converted back to .jpg, zipped and noticed that the res was showing as 303x540 WTF!? Weird b/c I know I set the image converter for 540x960! Anywhoo, I installed the file as normal, fixed perms and rebooted......and it WORKED! With no problems. I thought it would appear small on my screen but it fit, so what the hell it works, I don't know why but it does. I'm attaching both files if any one is interested in ripping into them and figuring out why, or to just install and let me know if it works for you too.

In the process I found a program called Boot Animation Creator, its pretty effin awesome, here's the link:

I'm buying a MyTouch HTC Slider for a friend of mine (with her money). She loves Android but isn't a techy.

I will have no experience with this phone. She doesn't need the flashiest or fastest ROM. She just needs the most stable. I want to give her a custom ROM to take advantage of less-bloat and better battery life.

Which of the current ROM's is the most stable? Is the thread from February that I linked above still valid? Which is to say, that Froyo ROM's are still considered the most stable? Or has Gingerbread come along further yet?

I'm pretty used to flashing my Skyrocket. Just don't have time to devote to researching the MyTouch. She's not my GF. She's actually my buddy's GF.

I vote for Bulletproof too, I have been running it for months with no problems. It keeps all the functions of the phone intact too. There are no Froyo roms for this phone, so I am not sure what you are talking about there. There are plenty of gigngerbread roms, and Ice cream sandwich roms. I haven't found any of the ics roms to be stable enough for me though. Go with Bulletproof.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CZ Eddie:
Kk, just picked up the MyTouch HTC 4G slide.

It has:

Doubleshot put Ship S-On RL

HBOT-1.45.0013

So it looks like the Revolutionairy tool can't be use to set this phone to S-OFF because it says 1.45.0013 is not supported at this time, when I run the Revolutionairy tool.

So from what I can gather, it looks like installing the Bulletproof ROM is now out of the question, since there is no way to set this phone to S-OFF?

I'm still googling but on a bit of a time crunch.
