[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
That looks like a slider model?

Since you are on the last HC incremental build, you should be able to use ViperMod. It is in the Development section. Download that to your PC and run it according to the OP. IIRC, you have to use

Option 1

for the TF-Honeycomb build. Once you have root, then go to the market and get OTA Rootkeeper. Install that and make sure it saves Root. Then install a Root app like Titanium and make sure it works. Then use OTA Rkpr to Temp Unroot and take the OTAs. Then finally once you are up-to-date with the latest ICS build (.27 is the last number of it), go back into OTA Rkpr and restore root.

One thing that I have found it that the latest version of OTA Rootkeeper will not save a backup of SU in /system/xbin (this caused me a problem with an app yesterday). What you want to do is get a file explorer like Root Explorer and copy the su from /system/bin and paste it in /system/xbin and you should be good to go.

And one final thing, if you have a custom recovery like Rogue or TWRP, the OTA will not succeed, nor will it if you delete any apps from /system/app. For thatI used Titanium Backup Pro and just Forze the bloat. When a new build comes out, I just defrost and take it, the re-freeze.

What is the slider model? Sorry for noob question
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toanau:
Do U recommend razor claw or viper
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
That is why I asked you what build you are on. Razerclaw (.13) only works on earlier builds of HC, whereas ViperMod works on the later versions (.19+).

Could always try Razerclaw. At worst it will let you install it and then once you run it, it should throw an error. I used ViperMod when I got mine b/c I stupidly updated before I knew about Razerclaw (this was before ICS came out). ViperMod is really eay. Just install it on your PC, install the drivers and run it. Takes less than 5 mins to do.

I googled that build number you provided and it came up as a slider version, so that is why I asked.

Edit: OK I just looked around a bit more and your build number isn't 8.6.5.2.1 but rather 8.6.5.21. So you are on build .21. Then you need to use ViperMod and use the directions I post in the other post and this one and you shoudl be good to go.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toanau:
I had the prime before but sold it do to wifi issued. I rooted the prime before using viper. Is it the same process
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
Yes. Only for this one it is Option 1.

If you somehow lose Root when you get to the first ICS build (.11 I think it was), you can still use ViperMod but you'll have to use Option 3 then.

Good luck and let us know.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toanau:
Could I down load the viper mod from transformer prime tread?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toanau:
What do I do if the computer doesn't recognize the tf.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
Means you probably don't have the drivers installed or still have the ones from your Prime days.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] the architeck:
hey guys i wanted to know if i had to wipe everything when there is an update for a rom? or just wipe cache and dalvik?

thanks
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SoraX64:
It's a case-by-case thing. Sometimes you only need to wipe caches, but others you'll need to do a full wipe. Usually a ROM developer will note what you have to wipe when they post the update, so make sure to check.

You could always just do a nandroid and then try flashing after a cache wipe. If that doesn't work, you can either restore or do a full wipe and reflash the update.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] the architeck:
ohh i see, i have the mean rom but i looked and didnt see anything to full wipe when installing the new update, i wasnt sure if to full wipe or just cache and dalvik
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Steven 1:
I always factory reset. Wipe cache, then dalvik. Twice in that order. But you can get away with just wiping cache and dalvik. As most will tell you
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] the architeck:
thanks! :good:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] PsiPhiDan:
Note that the MeanROM installation will wipe cache and dalvik cache for you, so no manual wiping is necessary actually.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] vandymcnew:
When I upgraded Stock Rom with Goodies i didn't need to wipe the cache's, smooth upgrade.
[HTC EVO 3D] XeX_DuBwoofer_x:
Hi XDA, i wan't to look into developing roms, for the Evo 3D GSM in particular, im new to any kind of android development so looking for support, i have done some development before but only in visual studio + XNA game studio.

I will need help setting up my development pc from scratch which could either be of two setups that are listed below:

Acer Aspire M1500

Windows 7 Desktop

AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 4000+ 2.10GHz

3GB DDR2 RAM

1TB HDD, 750GB HDD, 200GB HDD, 160GB HDD

512MB DDR2 ATI Radeon HD4350 Graphics Card

I can setup a dual boot with ubuntu/linux but as this is my main pc i'd like to keep it as it is, but that depends whether my next pc can handle development.

Samsung NC10

Windows 7 + Android x86 ICS Build

Intel Athlon 1.66GHz Single Core

1GB DDR2 RAM

250GB HDD

256MB Intel GMA950 (Integrated) Graphics Card

Ideally i'd like to use my netbook as i rarely use it and if a dual boot were to mess up it wouldn't matter as there's nothing important on the Windows 7 install but if i can develop from within windows 7 via VM ect then i'll use the desktop as it has a larger monitor hooked up to it so if someone can point me in the right direction i'd highly appreciate it.

If a DEV can spare some time to help add to the DEV scene (noticed the GSM Evo has a very small amount of DEV's) I'd be willing to donate my time to use my phone to help out with testing builds ect.

Thanks in advance

-XeX_DuBwoofer_x

EDIT: Going to dual boot with Ubuntu 12.04, what do people recommend? install onto my netbook's second partition (currently has android installed) reccomend me a partition size!

OR

install to the 160GB HDD in my desktop
[HTC EVO 3D] SecFry:
50GB will be enough for Ubuntu (or Arch, or Gentoo, or Debian, or whatever) + Android sources + compilation stuff.

I would suggest to use ArchLinux tho - it's more optimized and like a bleeding edge.

There is no matter on what you should develop - but IMHO it will be easier under native linux (not virtualized).

After installing system the only thing you need to start develop - download sources and edit them :D

Compilation stuff is easy as a pie - get repo's, "lunch", "mka bacon". To rebuild 1 thing do "mm" at root directory of that thing.

Do you want to know more? I hope I can help you somehow...

BTW I quite sure that you can build whole android on your netbook but it will be like 10-12 hours of building. Also it will run out of memory sometimes, so you will need to restart "mka bacon" OR you can do it with "make bacon" - it requires less memory and (as you have only 1 CPU) it can be the right way.

You need to check yourself the time of compilation. Also you can train your skills about installing linux :)

I think you shouldnt remove android from second partition - instead you can use "gparted" while booted to live Ubuntu to resize partitions online. That can lead to loss of data but I never had one. (I was resizing ntfs, fat32, ext2, ext3, ext4, reiserfs)

Actually I'm not quite sure bout how much RAM should you have, but I think 16GB is enough :D On my new laptop (which is now unusable due to coller stuff, but rescue flies from China right now) it could ran of memory with 8GB of RAM.
[HTC EVO 3D] XeX_DuBwoofer_x:
Thanks for checking this out :D i will take your suggestions as im a massive noob where Android development concerns me.

I'll install it on my desktops 160GB HDD and add another NTFS partition for all work i do so i can access it from windows easily, so firstly i will download and install ArchLinux on my pc, if you can run me through everything from installing everything on ArchLinux to starting a CM9/AOSP ICS Evo 3D GSM Rom that would be great :D i have no idea what i need to download ect

P.S i tried your rom out and i like it but i'd like to be able to contribute to things :D

EDIT: I'll covert my 160GB HDD into 2 Partitions 1x 60GB for ArchLinux + 100GB For everything else
[HTC EVO 3D] SecFry:
1. Get free space on HDD.

Do it with gparted on ubuntu live or with console like things.

2. Make partition setup.

Do it with gparted on ubuntu live or you can do it in ArchLinux installation process.

3. Then download "https://www.archlinux.org/iso/2011.08.19/archlinux-2011.08.19-core-i686.iso.torrent" - x86 build.

Or this one - "https://www.archlinux.org/iso/2011.08.19/archlinux-2011.08.19-core-x86_64.iso.torrent" - x64 build.

4. Read this until point 4 - https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beginners'_Guide

BTW if you arent new to Linux, you can read this also - https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Official_Installation_Guide

5. Install ArchLinux

6. Read the rest of - https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beginners'_Guide

7. While being root, run:

# pacman -Syu openjdk6 schedtool pngcrush curl

8. While being normal user, run: (http://source.android.com/source/downloading.html - Installing repo)

$ mkdir ~/bin

$ echo PATH="~/bin:\$PATH" >> ~/.bashrc

$ echo USE_CCACHE=1 >> ~/.bashrc

Logout, login and run:

$ curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo

$ chmod a+x ~/bin/repo

9. Then do (https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android)

$ mkdir android_source

$ cd android_source

$ repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b ics

$ repo sync

$ . build/envsetup.sh

To build android do:

$ lunch

$ mka bacon

Samsung Galaxy 19300 International S3 rooted with Omega v5.1/B]

Hi, I need some help please - When I rebooted my S3 after flashing the new JB fonts mod Apk with CWM touch it started "updating Android" & proceeded to count up over 300 & then it said "scale". Everything looked fine until an error box came up saying:

Home Selection

Clear default in Home Settings>

Applications>Manage applications.

Unfortunately, %1$s has stopped

WTF is this?....it would not let me do anything. I could get back into CWM & reboot to recovery.

After much retrying, I panicked and wiped cache, wiped Davlik & then did a factory reset.

I then encountered loads of problems trying to reflash thestock formware via Odin but eventually I got it reflashed.

Anyway, I have rebooted the S3 and up comes the original start up screen but the above box is coming up & again, it's preventing me from either by-passing it or deleting it.

I always wondered...if you read engadget / any other tech blogs when they do a review of a new product they always include battery tests where they loop a video from full charge until it dies and create a table to compare different tablets/phones etc.

I always thought it would be kind of cool if we did that here for the different ROM's for the Evo 4g LTE that way someone could also take that into account when making a ROM decision.

Maybe take 4-5 of the top ROM's and do a battery life comparison.

Just an idea...

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dbzgod:
These firmwares for the S4 snapdragon CPU have some multiple in one files ex: the cache file contains both the csc and hidden files in one and looking at the NAND memory brake down im guessing there's more than just the cache that contains more.

Im guessing that the Bell file is bigger because it might be all 3 sections in one possibly. The modem partition is 60MBs though so perhaps Bell and rogers have them setup differently.

Also keep in mind that Bell supports fast dormancy on there network and that too could explain the difference between the modem file sizes. I don't believe Rogers does.

first off they cant bundle multiple files together for the modem as it is a binary file, not a partition dump image. or instead of guessing, find out for sure (as i am trying to do)

I know that they are the same baseband, doesn't mean the file sizes can't be different.

Forgot to add to my first post that when you're flashing the NON-HLOS.bin file in Odin it says it's the modem file, think otherwise then dump the PIT file off the phone and look. Its where Odin gets the information about what file goes where in the first place.
