[Asus Transformer TF700] zenaxe:
So, since "Jelly Day" is nigh, I was wondering what everyone's update strategy is. I'm thinking my process is going to look like this:

Backup root w/ OTA Rootkeeper/SuperSU

(Root) Unfreeze all the system apps I have frozen

(Root) Do a Titanium Backup

Do an ASUS Backup

(Root) Restore build.prop (was Clean RAM, but this is overkill)

Clear Caches

Cold Boot

Hit "Update"

Wait...

After Final Boot: Factory Reset

Cold Boot

Setup System via Standard menu

Restore Root if possible

Check for Adobe Flash (post JB Factory Reset may wipe it), install if necessary

Restore apps

(Root) Freeze unwanted apps.

I'm a little tempted to factory reset before and after the update. I might copy my entire /sdcard to an external HDD prior, too. I do this occasionally as a backup method.

Do any of you guys have other approaches. I know there have been times when I have just hit update without thinking about it much and let it rip. But I want JB to be... special.
[Asus Transformer TF700] johnlgalt:
Step 5...clean RAM?

I thought about factory reset, but JB is a minor update over ICS versus ICS over Gb, so I'll probably skip the factory reset unless I experience odd issues.

[Asus Transformer TF700] czerdrill:
Factory reset wipes internal sd right?
[Asus Transformer TF700] zenaxe:
Yep. Any apps or data will need to be restored.

re Clean RAM: By that I basically meant run FMR memory cleaner. Now that I think about it that IS overkill... since caches will be cleared and a reboot will follow. I mostly just use FMR to reduce crashes due to memory fragmentation.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Diogenes5:
Wait for a top Rom maker to release their own version. Install that instead.

Good things come to those who wait.
[Asus Transformer TF700] johnlgalt:
I'm new to the Infinity, so I have yet to see what this FMR is...and I'm kicking myself for taking the .30 update before I read that it breaks nvflash for the TF700....

But I understand following the accepted method since that has always worked :D

The ROM developers won't be able to actually update the current ICS to JB, though, right? They'll be ROMs that you need to install on systems that have already been updated to JB first, right, or am I mistaken in this?

[Asus Transformer TF700] chugger93:
Can't update current ICS roms to JB. I mean you can sorta, but you have to start with the JB framework first. I'm confused I guess by your question.

You don't need to be on jellybean to install a Jellybean ROM. You can be on ICS, it doesnt frankly matter, so long as you have a recovery and unlocked bootloader

---------- Post added at 01:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:46 PM ----------

There should be no prep work folks. Use titanium to backup your stuff....accept the OTA after applying rootkeeper and restore apps after reboot. Caches and Dalvik will already be cleared from the OTA drop
[Asus Transformer TF700] woodsonmh:
Thanks for the list. Reminded me of a couple of things, i had not thought of. With .30 update i forgot to use voodoo and it took me most of an afternoon to get it to install.

thanks
[Asus Transformer TF700] zenaxe:
Yeah, I had some similar mucking about. :)

Anyone know if an OTA Rootkeeper su-backup survives a factory Reset? I assume it does. It could be a problem with my current with my current list otherwise.
[Asus Transformer TF700] originalnabisco:
I believe it does. We use a bunch of TF300's at work. Occasionally I factory reset them, and the steps I use to get root back is:

1) Install Superuser

2) Install Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper

3) Open Superuser once

4) Open Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper -> Restore root
[Asus Transformer TF700] xcal321:
FMR Memory Cleaner. I use it to free mem before playing gfx intensive games.

Hopefully the JB update will also have the nvidia drivers fixed, so that reboot+FMR is not required anymore.
[Asus Transformer TF700] zenaxe:
Another thing to think about: Restore build.prop prior to update. Sounds like modified build.props can hose the OTA.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
Koushik basically has the option of making recovery porting easier, since there's no CWM here really, I've built both a touch and non touch versions.

Basically these are just the img files, I prefer not to make a flashable zip until some test it to confirm both work, I have a few ideas to build better versions, though I don't really see the need at the moment to implement though with 4EXT around, it's still good to have options.

Flash these recoveries manually or via hasoon's tool:

CWM Touch IMG

Server link: http://jenkins.cyanogenmod.com/job/recovery/6430/

CWM Touchless IMG

Server link: http://jenkins.cyanogenmod.com/job/recovery/6428/

Credits:

Koushik for making his server open and customizing it to build/port cwm using a stock recovery.

HTC for the stock recovery [lol]
[HTC Amaze 4G] EclipzeRemix:
Its highly recommended to use this only if you have S OFF
[HTC Amaze 4G] alvinma:
what i don't understand with 4ext is that u need superuser to install it, but u need a custome recovery to install superuser, seems like dead loop? correct me if im wrong.
[HTC Amaze 4G] rbaruch:
Install 4ext recovery first. Then if you want you can install the control application on Android which requires superuser.

Also, is this the latest version with incremental back ups?
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
You don't need superuser to install 4EXT, it can be installed via fastboot like any other recovery.

CWM has incremental backups now? All I can tell you is that it's the latest version for both touch and regular cwm recovery.
[HTC Amaze 4G] millia90:
I was able to load the CWM Touch without S-Offing and flash my first Amaze ROM (successfully is TBD though)
[HTC Amaze 4G] mxpxboi:
How do you flash these via fastboot? Do I have to rename them?
[HTC Amaze 4G] sikwitit24seven:
Can someone tell me pros and cons of both 4ext recovery and cwm touch. Which one is better? I have 4ext, no issues so not sure if I should change it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Ninjistix:
were these taken down? none of the links seem to work, really wanted to get this back to try and flash a rom

-nvm internet settings were blocking dls for some reason
[HTC Amaze 4G] Shadow Samurai:
4ext is better for most htc phone (more features, etc) cwm Is for everyone else
[HTC Amaze 4G] Ninjistix:
yes it also supports the very important smart flash feature which helps users flash kernels properly without being S-OFF

[HTC One X] Willan Zar:
Hi,

I have a htc one x upgraded to the latest version 4.0.4, not rooted, and I have a problem when I send an sms to one person. For some unknown reason it sends it as a group sms to 4 other people also. I have spoken to htc support, and they said uninstall the 3rd party program to no avail, then clear data in message, but couldn't do that because it was greyed out. Next step was to test in in another phone, I had an iphone 4s and as far as I know it worked fine. Next step was to delete data in the dialer app, which i did, but no help.

I have even deleted the contact in my phone, restarted it and sent and sms just by using the number, but for some strange reason my phone seems to have grouped that number to a group. I can't find that group, but considering the contact is deleted and it still sends it as a group sms, there must be something in the phone.

As far as I can see it only happens to this number, never happened before. Htc's last resort was to do a factory reset which I don't really want to do.

I am hoping there are some smart cookies here that can help me!

Please help!

You probably have to flash the whole DSPManager zip. I don't think you can just install the apk alone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FrostyF7:
I thought the apk would have done it... I can upload the zip if you guys would like.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danielsaenz:
The ZIP I posted works on ICS or JB. However, if you just install the APK, the chances of the libraries you need being already installed are very slim.

You HAVE to flash the whole zip, DSP manager has to have the proper libraries to work as a systemwide EQ. If it was just an APK then it wouldn't be any different than the EQs bundled with PlayerPro or Poweramp, meaning that it would only work on that one app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jave16:
Do i need to back up or should i be positive it won't mess up my phone
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danielsaenz:
Rule of thumb is to always back up.

I don't. It's just an APK and a couple of libraries, shouldn't mess anything up.
