Ok so I unlocked my bootloader and was flashing some custom roms (xi40, Nocturnal special edition, aokp, and CM10) In that order. Only problem is, now whenever I try to go to xi40, Nocturnal, or King cobra (just downloaded) it says...

Finding update package...

opening update package

verifying update package...

E: signature verification failed

*verifying filesystems...

*verifying partition sizes...

error flashing zip '/sdcard/Nocturnalxi40 (xi40 being an example)

Edit: it now does this with everything I try to flash(only tried to flash roms). Thank god for backups!

Ok, all I had to do was disable signature checks... simple enough :D

Hey everyone,

Just got my Nexus 7 last week from Argos (UK). Loving it so far :laugh:

I got a Cbbe U9GT2 tablet 10' screen, which I use to read PDF files, books etc,

But I was just wondering is there a software or a way in which I can convert the PDF etc so that it is readable without having to zoom in all the time?

[HTC Rezound] frogmum:
Okay, my friend has the rezound and I'm not sure what happened when he got the OTA update but it won't load up past the white HTC screen.

I think he bought it rooted. I don't know how to tell. in the bootloader it says

*** UNLOCKED ***

vigor pvt ship s-on RL

hboot-2.11.0000

eMMC-boot

I don't know what that all means. What can I do to get this thing working again.
[HTC Rezound] abrego47:
he can't get the ota while in root. but you can manually update it by relocking it and placing the ruu on the root of the sd card and the bootloader do it. all of this can be found by searching. most rom dev's have on spot to show you how to install the leaks or ota's. i learned from nilsp's business 2.6 they have step by step to get it going.
[HTC Rezound] pwned3:
The easiest way provided that he doesn't want to keep it rooted would be to download a ruu and flash it in hboot. The bootloader has to be relocked though.

Hey Guys,

I want to preface my inquiry by first saying thank you to all the devs who have helped unlock the true potential that the bolt has to offer - with out the devs I would have turned my back on this device long ago. You guys keep it interesting and for that I cannot thank you enough.

For months I have read about how there were many people hard at work with getting ICS up and running. The main blocker was the RIL which pretty much left many projects at a stand still. Now that the leak has surfaced - does that mean that the RIL is good to go? I half thought XDA would be bursting at the seams with people releasing ICS roms but it hasnt really been like that. I certainly do not have the expertise to get my hands dirty and create a rom but was hoping maybe a more senior dev could explain why the leak hasnt solved the RIL issue.

Thanks,

Chris
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RBarnett09:
The leaks are very buggy at this point.

Everything should be good to go once the actual OTA is released.

From that, developers should be able to use everything without having as many issues.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disconnecktie:
The leak is sense based therefore the ril for aosp is still having to be hacked up to work. I believe that it has helped with fixing the ics ril we have now but they cant just be copied and pasted and work. Roms are being developed as we speak that will use the things gained from the leak.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Merely_an_observer:
I understand that this ROM was put together mainly for Lexmazter's personal use, so thanks for making it available for us all.

I have been testing it for some time now and decided to post a couple of things I have noticed so far. Maybe some of these points could be added to the first post's FAQ in the development section (if they are of any use)?

WiFi patch: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1579585

---

This one was a necessity for me, otherwise the WiFi simply silently died/froze after being idle for some time.

Couldn't erase SD card (Settings --> Storage --> Erase SD card)

---

I managed to fix it by copying vold from DSC ROM and replacing the old one (/system/bin).

I got the idea from: https://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=4004 (comments 7-9)

Useless/detrimental(?) entries in Build.prop:

---

ro.telephony.default_network=0

ro.ril.hsxpa=2

ro.ril.gprsclass=12

ro.ril.enable.amr.wideband=1

I had to nuke those entries to get the phone working & staying in 2G, even after a reboot. Is there actually any reason to force the phone to use 3G when it only seems to override the settings that the user could do in Settings --> Wireless & networks --> Mobile networks? The existence of ro.ril.enable.amr.wideband=1 broke making/receiving phone calls in 2G.

The FCing menu in settings + the non-working reboot option:

---

Settings --> CyanogenMod settings --> Display --> Automatic backlight --> Edit other levels... causes a FC. Reboot phone --> Recovery does not work. These are purely cosmetic things, but they could just be removed as they're doing nothing anyway. Basically what lordmorphous did in: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=24550723&postcount=43

However, I guess that because this ROM uses theming, the framework-res.apk would be needed to be decompiled etc.. in a proper fashion?

I would love to see more versions and possible improvements of this ROM. For me things like being as close to 2.3.7 as possible + CM's permissions management alone make this a keeper.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lexmazter:
Hi and thanks for the feedback, i would like to begin with the first things.

WiFi patch is not needed if you are using LXdroid Rom 0.2 and baseband 366, i was using it like that a lot and i didn't had any issues with the WiFi...

--

As for erase SD card, i never really tested that feature, but for all i know, it should work just fine...

--

Those useless/detrimental build.prop you put there were left there from the original build.prop of CM7, you can override those settings from Settings, i can assure you that ro.ril.enable.amr.wideband=1 does not break 2G calls as i was most of the time on 2G to save battery, i had the option in power widget to change it ti 3G when i needed internet connection.

The framework-res.apk you provided there will be include in the next update, i think i'm going to release one with small fixes soon.

The framework-res.apk doesn't need to be decompiled in a proper manner, you can use any archiver you like and change the insides of it :).

To keep away from any other problems, if you upgraded from 2.3.3 or any other ROM besides CM7 based ones, make sure you fully wipe everything, from dalvik to factory reset from recovery and factory reset from dell (white letters).

--

Will try to update, but it will be only with small fixes :)

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] iONEx:
If you want a fast, lagless, not resource hungry ROM, then switch to GB. ICS is damn heavy. I used it for a couple of month, then reverted to GB again.

Try something like Spartan ROM, flush78, LEWA OS is pretty fast (based onCM7.2 though)

Every ICS ROM is going to be heavy in my opinion....

Or just wait fo a stable JB ROM...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] stblue:
real ics r4 and Krsh /mesa/raga kernel(its your choice)... i find it the most stable and fastest rom till now in term of ICS.. also the dialer respond is better than the stock one and you will get a lot of internal memory..just give it a try..

Exactly what i wanted to say.Wait for a stable JB, till then use one of spartan or flush78, or you can modify your stock rom, that's what i did.Uninstall apps install scripts and modify the look of your rom.Then you'll have your rom exactly the way you like it, plus learn some things;)

P.S. GB and rage kernel = very stable

I'm thinking too of reverting back to GB.

I have the feeling that it was faster, smoother and less battery consumption.

However what about ICS new Feauture of better GPU overall perfomance, not that I play any games at all but i'm just saying..

Anyway I'm thinking of HaSa HyperbeamNewEdition rom ,,!

What do you guys think?

I don't want preety, I WANT STABLE, i don't mind even if the Boot Animation is a gay couple kissing, or Bieber, (preety much the same), i just want to open my phone and see everything working fast, stable , smooth and bug free.

I thought hey ICS is rather new let's go back to a more stable GB build..

Hell what even official sony ICS has bugs (Notification LED) -Sony's developers elegance-

And here we go:

Sparta's google play crashing while flashlight is not working, and another one don't remember the name..

I've also tried your own HasaCream something and after the boot animation i stuck and loop after 3 min..

Some others (not GB) like CWM i consider them Fast , battery hungry and buggy..

Sure u can say since you are so demanding remember that these things are no paid and people like you build them at their free time , etc....

I am NOT demanding or using foul languge, i was just being funny about the fact that i don't like the whole Framework..

However i know that funny after some hours of development is not so funny and i can understand the :

To end this big boring reply you can say :

Hey Freeboss since you want stable why don't you try yourself and make one...

Hi if you like ics try real ics or unlimted rom they have both a great look and runs smooth,but like the others said: ICS is heavy and gaming is laggy,it has a less performance than gb,if you like gb try hasa rom or my rom and if you like both try my latest release: HasaHyperbeamRom :D

Thanks for the fast reply, i have tried it but when the red animation begins phone freezes and reboots after 3-4 minutes.

Hey guys, I must say that I am using Real ICS Lite r4 right now, and I am really happy with it. I didn't think I would like it so much, since r3 was quite heavy and problematic for me. You should give it a try. Also I tried but didn't work on it thoroughly, the ice cream pureness v2.2 and found it quite good too. I've heard good things about smultronic, but since I am happy with my Rom now, I haven't tried it yet. Thank you for your suggestions.

One comment though, I believe that custom roms, should be light, but some essential apps like, google maps, email and maybe facebook (for the ones that really need it :D), should be preinstalled, and not needing to download them from the market

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tired_:
I read online today that Sony has released binary drivers for their Xperia S phone, in support of the vanilla AOSP build they're trying to do for it. I did some Googling, and I noticed that Xperia S uses Qualcomm MSM8260 Snapdragon as a chipset, and it turns out that chipset is really similar to the APQ8060 we've got in our beloved Touchpads (enough so that Qualcomm lists them both in the same whitepaper). Is there much of a chance that the stuff Sony released can be shoehorned in to help us?
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tired_:
I downloaded them from http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/tool/software-binaries-for-xperia-s and tried to shoehorn them in to the unofficial CM10 build that's floating around. A lot of the binary files were available in that build, but a lot of the Sony ones had different filesizes, so something in them has changed. CM10 wouldn't load after I added the new files, so it's not going to be that easy, and there's an EULA on the Sony binaries (which I think I broke trying to load them on my TP). It's entirely possible I put the binaries in to the CM10 install wrong...I used a rather convoluted process (booted into WebOS, loop-mounted cm-system, copied over each file one-by-one into lib and etc, then fixed permissions in TWRP...there must be an easier way, but I couldn't immediately figure one out).

I wonder if they might work better in a more vanilla AOSP build...I doubt I can build it myself (old Pentium M laptop with only 1.5GB RAM), but perhaps someone else can take a crack at it.
