any luck getting this installed on a stocked rooted bell raider?

I don't really want to wipe again, buddy of mine tried by locking bootloader removing superuser but it failed.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] technote:
If you are rooted, with unlocked bootloader, and SuperCID your phone, the update will not apply properly, it will even display a message saying your phone's software has been modified and stops right there.

You will probably have to start fresh again.

I managed to flash it on Roger's Raider (to use on Bell).

I was gonna write a tutorial but wasn't sure how many will actually need it the exact same way I do, here is the short version of what I did:

I was already using AT&T ICS (already have s-off, supercid, etc)

1) in fastboot, change CID to BM___001

2) in fastboot, relock bootloader

3) in fastboot, flash Bell GB RUU

4) boot into OS, update to ICS (right from "System Updates" in settings)

5) in fastboot, unlock bootloader (you will need a new unlock bin, the old one from GB didn't work for me, follow the steps at HTCDEV again)

6) in fastboot, flash custom recovery and change CID back to 11111111 if you want

7) boot into the custom recovery you just flashed, and flash supersu package

8) profit.

That's what I did anyway... let me know if anyone wants a longer version of this.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jebise101:
thanks but i have a stock Bell with S-ON and its just rooted. My buddie already got ICS by lock the bootloader and flashing the Bell GB RUU, but i'm looking for a way around itso i don't have to start over.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] raymar23:
Nandroid ??

Thanks for the work. Would you be willing to upload that nandroid of the fresh ICS install so I can play with it?

Thanks in advance!

:D
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ideaLduK:
Yeah sure give me an hour or two and ill upload it (putting all the img into a zip than uploading with crappy upstream xD

Sent from my HTC Raider 4G LTE running ICS.

EDIT : Currently being uploaded, ETA 1200 hours GMT-5

EDIT 2 : System partition download link : http://www.filefactory.com/file/26estudnmg3f/n/Stock_BM_ICS_OTA_system.ext4.tar

I only uploaded the system partition because the data is empty, recovery is not needed if you want to mod it, boot is the default kernel and cache was empty as well. Happy tweaking!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ideaLduK:
If you are SuperCID (11111111) you dont have to put it back to BM___001. Just flash the RUU than flash the zip. That's what I did and it worked. i was also under ATT firmware.

Thanks Again

Thank you soo much. I didnt want to install it just to get a "base". The last time I tried to cook a ROM was for a SGS, and by the time I could cook anything, the seasonsed devs beat me to it 4 times overs. Developement is slow/scarese for this device so I might have a chance this time.;) It's gonna time me 9 hours to download the damn thing though :(
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ideaLduK:
If you release anything, please put my name in the thanks for the base :)!

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] raymar23:
I definitely will. I'm actually ripping through it now. I think I will make a base Bell Rom with root busybox and de-odex first. then add tweaks and such. I don't get much time to "play" with it much as I work full time and have 3 young kids. but keep checking the dev forum for a new Rom ;-)

I will try to get this working this weekend, also for everyone else, try to use this forum for HTC explorer development rather than the Facebook group, makes things easier for everyone.

Don't forget to vote so that the HTC explorer gets its known section, (sorry I don't know the link, you can search for it).

And lastly if anyone has free time, try to help modafoca with porting cyanogenmod, do it for the community.

Thanks.

I'm starting messing with the files!

Any help regarding:

Boot.img

Updater-script

Updater binary

Build.prop

would be much apreciate!!

For example:

how can I mess with this files for the port to work, for example..copy the boot.img from stock to golf, copy the update binary, edit those lines of build prop (as saidin the guide)..and the big problem: updater-script :S

Cheers

Gonna test 3 diferent files I made! Wish me luck :D

ClockWorkMod Recovery

Hey guys, are you using the official CWM Recovery image for the HTC Pico? I don't know if it is the same for all HTC Explorer devices but the Vodafone Australia variant doesn't like the build of busybox that is included in the recovery. overwritting the busybox symlink in the recovery with the actual busybox binary fixes the status 0 error for me. I did have just the unzip binary added but found the full busybox worked better. Version of busybox I use is 1.19.3

Hope this helps... if so it should fix issues related with installing the rom.

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] ourico4:
Friends I was in contact with some devs of XDA about the problems I was facing porting the golf rom to our explorer and after talking with some I achive this, unfortunatly, conclusion:

We can not port cause Port rom is 4.0.3 and our explorer 2.3.5..well we can port but only with cm9 you can but you should compile a kernel and modules(vey hard work)...So as I said earlier, as we dont have ICS kernel made for ou explorer is next to impossible I think :(

Sorry to bring bad news, but guess it's reality, and for mor work we do in updater script or boot.img (believe I've made at least 40 builds of this mother ****er!!) it wont boot :(

I hope someone mange to fix a "workaround" for this problem or maybe someone makes cm9 for our explorer :)

I have used revolutionary and have been using MIUI for a while, further details:

[Acer Iconia A500] Rogue Leader:
Hi folks, got my A500 refurb for 200 bucks last night. Its mint, and so far awesome. I am coming from a Nook Color as my last tablet so this is a huge jump. Updated OTA to ICS this morning.

Couple of simple questions:

1. How do I turn off haptic feedback? It wasn't on when it was on HC, but in ICS it has it, the vibrate on this thing is strong enough for it to be annoying. I looked under keyboard settings which is where it is on any of my old devices, and its not there, unless I missed it?

2. Does this thing go to sleep if you leave the screen off for an extended period, like shut off the wifi and go low power? my Nook does that, not sure if theres a setting I need to set. I left for work this morning and left it on my desk, on and connected to WiFi, am I gonna come home to 50% battery?

3. Tried the Hero of Sparta game on it last night while still on HC. Played great but the sound was choppy, I have heard some attribute sound issues to Dolby Mobile, is that the case? Should I try again with Dolby turned off?

4. I believe I read that you can't move apps to the SD card with ICS? Is that the case, because I bought an 8gb tab which means I'm gonna run out of space real quick. Can rooting fix that?
[Acer Iconia A500] dibb_nz:
1. In sound settings

2. I'd be worried if I came home to find my battery at 50 per cent, you be fine

2. Check advanced wifi settings- can tell wifi when to sleep

3. Cant help with this, experiment and find out

4. Not heard of anyone running out - that usb port comes in mighty handy!!!

5. Welcome to the forum:)
[Acer Iconia A500] Rogue Leader:
Thanks for the tips, I came home and it was at 92 percent

Shutting off Dolby did fix the sound problem

I put a 32 GB micro SD in it. I was concerned games wouldn't install to it, and apparently they don't. I don't have a lot installed and yet I have less than 1.5gb remaining.

Thanks for the welcome :)
[Acer Iconia A500] dibb_nz:
awesome you're welcome:D:D Hows that 32GB Card working, had any issues apart from being too small:) what brand and class is it m8???
[Acer Iconia A500] Rogue Leader:
I got a sandisk class 4. It seems to work fine but the fact there's no way to move apps to it makes it a bit useless. I'm not much of a music/movie guy I usually use streaming so media space is wasted on me. Is there a fix for that yet?
[Acer Iconia A500] partzman2:
app2sd

You might want to try App2sd from the google play store. The app won't move all apps to SD card, only apps that are moveable. So this app won't totally solve your problem but it should help.
[Acer Iconia A500] Rogue Leader:
Yeah I have that but it apparently doesn't work with ICS. I read somewhere else here someone complained about this as well. The button doesn't even show up to move apps to SD.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
A lot of games and other Database apps usually save the Data to the Ext SD Card by default, or give you an option for location. At least what I've come across.
[Acer Iconia A500] Metallkasten:
A Class 4 is a hair on the slow side, anyways. You would likely see a real world performance hit running apps off a class 4 card.
