HALPz?

Hey!!! finally could make it to the CM10 :)

(coming from 2.3.7)

did the usual steps, wipe data, wipe cache, install cm10, install gapps, wipe cache and boot... got on bootloop for 3 times, and got stuck on the logo, but not booting... removed battery, entered in that recovery mode(power + volume down) and wiped cache again

spent almost 5min on the logo screen, but was something different, at certain time, the logo flashed stronger, so I kept waiting... and voila! got the welcome screen :D

First. the old android versions used to save a backup of your apps and automatically downloaded all of it... do that feature die or I just skip that part without knowing?

Second: Old contacts list was able to filter for only contacts with cellphone number.. couldn't find it on here(until now, I'm like for less than 1 hour)

Third: Used nandroid backup online and pretended to use AppExtractor to recover some stuff... but it's like donwloading since I first connected here... and nothing :(

Besides the difference between JellyBean and Gingerbread, I guess that it's everything going fine(except for the first impression on the battery, looks like it's leaking a river :( )

edit: just got a random boot, and it got back to the welcome screen...

probably i'll re-flash CM7.2 because i need to go home and would like to do it with a working phone ;)

try doing a /system wipe in TWRP(don't reboot!!!) then flash cm10 zip.
[Defy Android Development] bhupatib:
Some tips:

* Use the ultimate wipe script whenever you switch ROM. Get it from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1818520

* TWRP sucks! Get the good old CWM from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2352230

* Try not to restore app backup from CM7. Download afresh.

* Use Camera ICS+ from the play store for better video recording. (You will still get reboots while playing videos through default player so use MXPlayer instead)

* Always flash minimal gapps

I spent all my way back home trying to reflash my old ROM... with no success... got stuck on the CM7.2 startup animation... and i noticed that i'm having issues when trying to mount /data... and that problem with /data repeats when trying to recover from my backup...

When i flashed the ROM, I'm pretty sure i did that... just not sure if used TWRP only to reflash the old rom... i'll try that today and post the result :)

(guess that i'll have to do all the flash from the SBF, since i'm not able to do anything right now :(

[Defy Android Development] hotdog125:
I have MB526. Not sure it helps. Try getting flash player apk from somewhere, install it and enable HWA. See if it works.
[Defy Android Development] Jarod42:
The reason may be the wrong FS type. CM10 and CM10.1 will format data and cache with ext4. So before you can flash your old ROM again, you need to format them with ext3. The boot menu should provide this functionality.

Good luck.
[Defy Android Development] soueumesmoaki:
Didn't have time to get back here...

so... solved this problem with the process from the beginning...

use RSD to flash SBF, do all that small steps that Antony posted here:

and instead of installing CM7 package, did it with CM10... it worked, but I can't say it worked like a glove, because everything works, haven't had any boot, or even app crash as far as i remember, got one single freeze when switching orientation of the phone, buuuuuuuuuuuuut, cellphone is kinda slow, not lagging, just slow...

any idea? some configuration, maybe?

Noticing some differentiations on CM7.X to this version...

CM7.2 is way more customizable than this one or I'm not doing well with this new android :(

I mean...

1. can't use any sound to anything on phone... i mean... can't put a mp3 to my messages notification at least not in a easy way...

2.can't merge facebook contacts with my phonelist... Still no idea on how it got difficult, but i still didn't get to make it happen :(

3. power control widget is not editable...

Look... i'm not complaining... just saying some stuff that i noticed a lot different(despite all the rest), and maybe someone have already found a way to do these, since i still didn't get to the other side... for now... :S

edit1: about the ringtone for the message, the way to make it appear on the list is to put the files on the "Notifications" folder on the sdcard... BUT, apparently it do not reproduce mp3 ...
[Defy Android Development] Antiga Prime:
1.- Put your .mp3 files in your sdcard at /media/notifications and /media/ringtones. If those folders don't exist, create them. Then either trigger a media scan from the Dev Tools, or reboot your phone and let the Media Scanner do it's thing for a few minutes.

2.- Never used FB on my phone, but I'm pretty sure you could try adding your FB account in the "Accounts" section in "Settings"

3.- If by that you mean that you can't add your own programs to the power widget, then no, you can't. I don't know how CM7 works, so I wouldn't know if that's what you're expecting. Aside from that, it's very customizable, you can add toggles for just about any system toggle you need (Wifi, 3G/2G, Bluetooth, Torch, Brightness, Screen Timeout etc.).
[Defy Android Development] soueumesmoaki:
thanks a lot ;)

but let's get going to answers...

1. tried that folders, with no success... but it worked on the /sdcard/ringtones... was able to see them, but when i select, can't hear the sound the should reproduce there(and if selected, don't have any sound when a message comes)

EDIT: Worked... after so many apps moving and stuff, it "magically" recognized the tone and everything did well)

2. the settings are made, and the contacts sync is done... but if i filter to show only the facebook contacts on the contacts, it only shows "me" and 0 contacts... that is the part i'm with problems right now..

3. about the power widget, i can edit the one in the notification bar... not the widget on the screen (at least didn't find where to do it :( )

in CM7, i had both editable.

btw.. didn't find dev tools on my phone... Did I forget to make anything?
[Defy Android Development] Antiga Prime:
1.- True, on one build I had to create /sdcard/ringtones. But if they appear in your Sound settings, then they should sound, if not, there might be a problem with your MP3 files in the first place (but unlikely).

2.- Can't help you any further than this, sorry.

3.- Never used the widget on the Launcher, so I wouldn't know.

If you open the Developer Options you'll see a button that says "Launch Tools", or something like that, right at the top. In there there is a Media Scanner option.

I'm stuck on bootloop whenever I try to install CM10. Let me tell you what I did:

1. use RSD lite, sbf 3.4.2; 2. enable usb debugging; 3. root with superoneclick; 4. reboot; 5. install 2ndinit 2.3; 6: recovery: 7. wipe data, cache, dalvik, 8. install zip, 9. install gapps, 10. wipe cache / dalvik; 11. reboot; 12. bootloop

your /system may run out of space if you flash full gapps. use minimal gapps instead.
[Defy Android Development] soueumesmoaki:
it is working... it's kinda slow, but it's running... need to get used to some differences :S
[Defy Android Development] niksy+:
If those are gapps from goo.im, then those are Jelly Bean 4.2.x gapps (=gapps for CM10.1). The latest Jelly Bean 4.1.x gapps on goo.im are from december 2012 or something like that.

Anyway, using a minimal gapps pack is really recommended, because they have become too big for our /system partition. But there's plenty of space in /data, so why not use minimal gapps install them afterwards from the Store as user apps? ;)

Does your phone boot if you skip flashing those gapps you've got? Or have you sorted it all out by now? :rolleyes:

usually I don't like to get apps to do it, but since there's no way and it's suggested by a member, i can go for it :)

Is anyone experiencing the cellphone kinda slow?

i'm liking this version so much that I'm not caring abt speed, or the battery drain of almost 50% less than the older version, or the native player(apollo) that don't work anymore, or the not automated contact sync(having to use other apps to do it), or having to use third app to make a power control widget that disables data network, or the camera app that lost picture quality(and reeeeeeally lost camera speed, have to click to take the picture and wait like 1s to capture the photo), that i'm still considering on keep all like this...

so i come with some questions:

Is there a way to get a CWM backup on the PC and get the APKs i need WITHOUT putting it back to my phone? (i was using that appextractor, but

1. considering uninstall apollo and use the old versoin music player... that would make 1 problem solved)

2. considering uninstall the camera app and use the old version one... (is that even possible?)

[Defy Android Development] Antiga Prime:
Slowness and lag also depend on what you have installed and how you use your phone. You can disable data connection with the power widget in the notification bar.

You can copy the CWM backup to your phone, and extract the "data" and/or "system" file with Winrar/7zip, etc. You can also do this on your phone (with Root Explorer, for instance, or Nandroid Manager, which let you extract compressed files and backups).

/data/app holds your user apks, and /system/app holds your system apps. You can delete the "gallery.apk" and replace it with the one you want. Gallery holds the actual camera app. You can search the Themes forum for more info on this. I'd recommend just renaming your apks to .bak or .old, and then copying the new apk, and then rebooting, of course, that way you can always go back.

If you're Custom Recovery still uses CWM, then you're on an older build. The newer builds use TWRP and are lightning fast, at least for me they are. I'm on CM 10.1.
[Defy Android Development] kapil_dheer:
For the cwm on latest roms, onandroid script can come handy.

You can take backup via terminal or adb shell on pc.

You can take both twrp or cwm backup depending on the option you choose.

Search for the script on xda.

Plus now we have choice to go for twrp or cwm.

I just had 3 random reboots.

Can someone examine the log?
[Defy Android Development] soueumesmoaki:
Guess that already said that to you a few posts ago.. but thanks so much :)

about what i have installed, nothing much, other than facebook, messenger, whatsapp, gmail and outlook and that ubersync rolling once a day) (that keeps constant running due to push notifitacions)

MAAAAAAAAAAAYBE it can be because i used full gapps (the one from goo.im)

about the CWM, is the one that used to use on CM7.2 and is the one appeared when i flashed the sbf and everything back then... tbh, since i got cm10 working, i didn't do anything on recovery :)

so... trying to understand this folder structure on the backup... i have system.ext3.tar\system\app ,where are all my system apps and the data.ext3.tar\data\app, the user ones, right? I noticed also a kind of name pattern on the user apps... amazing :)

ok.. getting back to focus... the appolo player, is inside the rom, and as native, it becomes a system app, right? so if I wanna change them, just need to import the music.apk on the system apps bkp to the one I'm using right now??

And you said that the gallery holds the gallery AND the camera app(which is awesome :), but i also have a camera.apk on the backup. Would be vaulable to restore this one or it could be some other stuff?

also, i found an AccountAndSyncSettings.apk... could that have anything related with the contacts sync?

Nevertheless.. these informations are inside the phone, right? So I can easily get that with some root-granted file explorer...

in case i do something wrong and brick my phone, anyway to restore the files via TWRP or any outside ccess or i'll need to wipe everything in case someting go wrong?
[Defy Android Development] Antiga Prime:
Ok, well you will notice that your CM10 now has TWRP

Apollo is a system app in these ROMs. If you want to install a system app you just need to copy it to the /system/app folder, correct the permissions and ownership (rw-r--r-- / root:root) and restart your phone. Regarding that "camera.apk", I wouldn't know, maybe it's on CM7, I never used CM7. But I should warn you that some apps might not be compatible with CM 10, so I wouldn't delete the original apps, just change their extension so that on reboot they aren't included, and that way you can always revert back to the original in case something goes wrong.

In worst case scenario you can always extract the apps from the ROM zip file, and don't need to flash an entire ROM for just a handful of apps.

But in any case, nor CM 10 nor CM 10.1 come with with a "camera.apk" or "music.apk", so I wouldn't be to sure about restoring/copying those ones. You can always try.

I don't know what "AccountAndSyncSettings.apk" does, you'll have to look that up.

Since I've updated my ROM, my recovery prog is TWRP. How do I point it to recover (I guess CWM) backups?

As it is, TWRP sees no backup files to restore.

Use the dual recovery zip.

---------- Post added at 12:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:59 AM ----------

I have been using latest CM10 (July 9) for a week now with uptime of 174 hrs.

I have had no memory leak:eek: strangely. The phone works fine, no lag, no problems. Somehow i think Engine flush tweak (or the supercharger) by Zeppelinrox is responsible for this. I may be wrong, but without these tweaks, CM10 had memory leaks after 4 days (though it was the previous July 2 build). So either the latest build or the tweaks helped in preventing memory leak for me.
