Blackrose install failure

I fail in installing Blackrose. This is what I did:

- root my phone using the newbee guide on this forum

- downgrading to hboot 1.13 using the S-Off guide on this forum

- S-Off using revolutionary

My phone is now S-Off, hboot 6.13.1002, revolutionary CWM v4.0.1.4

With USB debugging on, phone connected, I am running BlackRose_IS.exe with the following result:

* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *

* daemon started successfully *

* Waiting for device... *

* Installing BlackRose *

Can you please point me in how to move on?Thanks!
[HTC Incredible S] nlooooo:
I assume you're still on stock rom, to get BlackRose installer going you need a rom with unsecured boot.img. Try to flash CM7 and then to run installer.
[HTC Incredible S] neopap:
Thanks nlooooo!

You are right... as I said... clearly newbee.

Thanks for the superfast reply!!!:good:

hii guys

after CM 10 geting almost full working i'v decide to port Miui jelly bean for xperia S based on it

but i need some help from you guys

__

so if anyone can give a help pleas tell me

for now the rom didnt boot yet :( im still trying to know why

any body know how i can make logcat for the rom booting !!?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tinyXperia:
Which MIUI ROM do you use for porting? Only Nexus devices have Jelly Bean? I think Galaxy Nexus is the least bad.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Hamodi:
i was on galaxy nexus now im trying the nexus s but bouth give me bootlop !! if you recomnded a device tell me because im not sure what device to use as base
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tinyXperia:
For 2011 devices we use nexus s, but as Xperia S is XHDPI, I recommend Galaxy nexus.

Please get in touch with thetrisatria, he's the unofficial MIUI jelly bean expert :p
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Hamodi:
I tried galaxy nexus but the Rom didnt boot!! Stock on miui bootanimation I need to edit framework.jar
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Hamodi:
is any body here knows how to make logcat ?! system debug !!??

i want to know why the rom do not boot up
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Jaapp:
Hey sparxx

I've also tried to port MIUI Jelly Bean, even though I'm not experienced with porting and cooking at all. I have found this great guide where most of my knowledge about porting comes from.

To get the logcat of your booting device you need adb (included in the android SDK), and a PATH to platform-tools.

Open cmd.exe and execute 'adb logcat'

If you execute 'adb logcat >logcat.txt' you'll get your logcat as a .txt file.

Be aware of the big experience gap between knowing how to get a logcat and porting a ROM, though.

I'd be glad to help with this project, good luck.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tinyXperia:
I use the qtabd tool for logcat, has a friendly ui.

@jaapp, looks like I didn't help you further :(

Can you point out which file exactly gives you errors?

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tinyXperia:
I suggest a change of plans:

Maybe try to use HTC Sensation MIUI V4.1, it has the same CPU, so probably less fiddling with decompiling stuff is needed.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1841196

They used Crespo as base though, so maybe the screen res doesn't matter, but CPU is more important.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Hamodi:
All we need someone with knowledge with merging the framrwork jar

We have a bootup Rom but no ui showes up

We are close lts see what will happen
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tinyXperia:
You can try contacting SaossinX if he has time. He's very skilled.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Nepythys:
Just have to add a line to the kernel now to start shelld on bootup, no knowledge at all but i'm trying.

I've already contacted hei1125 to add the line for me, we'll see how it goes.

The rom boots up for the time being, MIUIHome, SystemUI, Android Keyboard and Google TTS FC.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Hamodi:
I had contact almost with every body who could help

Will I had learn new things around but defiantly not the compiling part :cool:

I had contact Milad and he said he will work on it but he busy now

And another person who can help

For now we foucs on nepythys version JB hopefully he will make it work

Other plan is the ics

Lts see what we will get ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Jaapp:
I've also got MIUI JB to boot today, lockscreen, setup manager, statusbar, wifi (finding singals) work, but I now have the problem that the keyboard doesn't work, i'll look more into it tomorrow. Please tell if/when you have found a fix for this.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Hamodi:
Can you send it to me?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Jaapp:
I'll attach the services.jar and framework.jar, I find the ROM too big to upload at this stage.

I used FXP CM10 151 as base and ported the latest MIUI from Galaxy Nexus.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Hamodi:
Did you tried third part apk for keyboard??
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Hamodi:
im getting statuse 7 install aborted when flashing the rom

any body know why this happen ?!!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Jaapp:
I've got keyboard working now. MiHome isn't responding with 'waiting for miui.shell' error. It seems that MiHome needs the shelld service to be started, requiring an extra line in the kernel.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Hamodi:
the good new we have a bootup rom with no fc so far

bad new still need to edit it :D
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Jaapp:
Okok, I've got everything working except outgoing calls and sms :D I feel like we can start releasing a good ROM soon
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Nepythys:
Go, Go, Go! Release!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Jaapp:
Phone and SMS now works, thanks to Nepythys! That means that all core features now work, although it isn't tweaked properly for good performance, mass storage usb doesn't work, lowest brightness results in black screen, some other things, most are easy to fix I think. It just needs some further bug testing, expect a release in Q4 2015 :laugh:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tinyXperia:
Have you edited the kernel already?

I made this video some weeks ago: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsnkwsTH53c
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Jaapp:
Yeah, it works properly now, the UI is laggy at some things (status bar) and beastly fast at other points (e.g. settings), have you any ideas of how to boost performance of ported ROM?

Hey guys. I got FroyoPro 2.5 rom, which isn't receiving any Internet settings from my carrier. They send them but no messages, containing the settings ever arrive in SMS box. What to do? Are the settings messages elsewhere or...?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] chadh92:
I just got my S3 on Wednesday and didn't waste any time rooting it and flashing CyanogenMod 10. I like everything so far, but i'm having trouble getting 3G, or any mobile data.

It was working fine stock, and even after rooting, but after flashing CM10 I have no luck with it.

I go to school where i'm always roaming, but it's included in my plan. In my Mobile Data settings i've got it set to connect to mobile data even when i'm roaming, but I am never able to get it to actually work, whereas on my old Evo 4G running CM7, I had no problems with 3G service.

Has anyone else had this problem? I have too few posts to post in the development board, so it said to post here.

Thanks for any help!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] chadh92:
sorry, my mistake. I should also mention that i'm running one of the most recently nightly builds, 20121107 to be exact.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nicholaaaas:
set it to cdma only
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] chadh92:
I tried that and had no luck. I decided to just go ahead and load up the last stable build of CM10, M2. I did that and I wasn't getting any service at all, so I flashed back to my nightly build 20121107, just to find out I was no longer getting any service on that either.

I decided to restore my original TouchWiz backup file, and now i'm not even getting service on that.

The Baseband and Build in the About Phone menu both include LJ7 in there, so I don't know where the hell my problem could be. If anyone has any advice, I'd really appreciate it. My GS3 is practically useless at the moment. I've also heard my IMEI may have been reset to all zeroes, but i've checked that and it's displaying normally.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChimpNippl3s:
Please could anyone help me as to how to use titanium back up pro

Silly questions these but never used this or done it b4

.. can I back up my entire rom with all my apps so if I put a new rom on my phone and dont like it I could just revert back to my last rom how I left it??

Also how do you back up just apps properly

How easy is it to restore apps or even full rom if possible to do

Thanks for reading and thanks even more if you leave advice to the note noob :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pransh:
You should google nandroid backups.. it basically restores your rom to the time you backed it much like a time machine (you go back to your previous condition). This requires a custom recovery which should be your first task after rooting your phone. Titanium backup only backs up apps and app data this is useful because when you flash a new rom you will lose all your data so TB restores all the apps for you and PRO makes restoration super quick..

Everyone's a noob at some point so doing a quick search on your favourite search engine to answer these sort of questions can take you a long way..

Happy flashing
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billygr:
i don't know bout you, but i myself only made a stock rom backup (right after i root and put cwm using odin), after that i never back up any rom i flashed ( i dont know why but i love --or addicted-- to flash almost every new custom rom)... hence i only back up my apps using titanium. with the new update the UI is kinda different, to upload to dropbox (you get 50GB from samsung for 2 years), you have to klick the 3rd tab and press run.

if you choose to backup using sdcard, dont forget to set the destination in setting, i prefer to backup on my ext sd because i often use superwipe before i flash some rom.

after that pres the checkmark in a box on the right edge on the top, it will then diagnose what scenarios are possible for you.

then it'll show you some list just pick one you want and press the check mark again. and you're done.
[Windows 8 General] pawlakpl:
Hi !

Can someone public apps )or source where i can find) which Samsung adds to their Windows 8 "PC's" ? "metro" apps and software like "Samsung S Launcher" which adding start menu button into windows 8 desktop mode.
[Windows 8 General] dragon_76:
I have a series 7 Slate and I will upload it. I want the S-Note and other Metro apps. I'm pretty irked that they didn't release them for me. My digitizer has the same level of pressure sense if not more, it being Wacom.
[Windows 8 General] JihadSquad:
This is a problem with how the store is set up. It is happening on lenovo computers too. Currently the lenovo metro apps are only available on oem installs, so upgrades and clean installs won't have any. Lenovo is currently trying to fix the problem with Microsoft so hopefully they can get it for all oems.
[Windows 8 General] dragon_76:
Sorry, I looked and I can't find the setup file for it anymore. I also can't find it in SW Update (which I DID attach). SW Update is where you can download apps and drivers for Samsung hardware. Choose "Find Model" in the bottom left corner of the window (if SW Update even works on non-Samsung).

SW Update

FWIW, S Launcher is not very good. It only sort of half-asses the start menu and it doesn't even give it a Metro look, in fact, it looks more like XP than anything. I love the ripping off of Apple's Dock (Samsung is so shameless I can't help but love them) but it is only a launcher and not a taskbar replacement.

Do what you should have been doing in Windows 7: pin your most-used apps to the taskbar. I have my Caps Lock key remapped as a search key and it is one keyboard stroke for search wherever I am (I used RandyRants SharpKeys to do the regedit business of key remapping for me) start to type the infrequently-used program name and off you go.

MS has GREATLY increased keyboard shortcuts in Win 8 and all the talk about it being more for tablets is just asinine. I use my 7 Slate most of the time docked to my Samsung 55" plasma and a Logitech K400.

I don't understand why they just don't do it like they do on Windows Phone. There should just be a spot in the store for "*OEM* Recommended".
[Motorola Droid 3] breezii:
First of all, I accidentally originally posted this in the Motorola Droid RAZR HD forum, as I did not notice there was a tab for other devices so I just picked the first Motorola phone I came to. That thread can be deleted & I'm sorry for doing that...

Soooo I just bought this Motorola XT860 off someone the other day. They didn't tell me it has this CyanogenMod 9 on it, & I just want the phone to have the stock OS/firmware/whatever on it. I don't know the first thing about this stuff & I'm a little upset that I didn't look at the phone more before I got it, but that's my own fault. Can anyone give me some guidance here? I haven't been able to find anything helpful by Googling it, everything I can find is for other devices. Please advise.
[Motorola Droid 3] Atrixn00b:
Download an international stock rom and flash it. Look in the dev forum. On how to do it. Or if it shows up safe strap when you boot it up you can push the menu button and access it then turn safe mode on and it switches back to stock if the person originally had stock before they flash safestrap
[HTC Inspire 4G] JeromeSama:
hello guys,

Do u guys know how to upgrade andriod version from 2.3.3 to 4.03 - 4.04 for Inspire 4g smartphones ?

Would appreciate for helps

:good:
[HTC Inspire 4G] bananagranola:
Are you rooted? If not, you need to root first with the Advanced Ace Hack Kit by attn1 (it's not here; you will need to Google for it). More detailed instructions are in post #7 of the Ace Think Tank thread linked in my signature. If you are rooted with a custom recovery, just backup, full wipe, and flash it from recovery.
[HTC Inspire 4G] JeromeSama:
I rooted it quite awhile ,i just want to upgrade my andriod version
[HTC Inspire 4G] bananagranola:
Do you have a recovery like CWM or 4ext? Make sure it's updated, then just download an ICS ROM, backup your current one, full wipe, and flash.
[HTC Inspire 4G] JeromeSama:
I did backup everything but question . what does flashing has to do with upgrading andriod version ?

I am quite lost ,sorry about that
[HTC Inspire 4G] bananagranola:
"Flash" in the whole custom Android world means to install something from recovery.
[HTC Inspire 4G] JeromeSama:
Okay wait , so in order to upgrade to 4.0.4 i need to flash a rom and not like doing some stuff for it ?
[HTC Inspire 4G] bananagranola:
What do you mean by doing some stuff for it? Sorry, I think I didn't originally grasp how in-depth of an explanation you wanted. In the terminology I understand, yes, you just need to flash a ROM.

1. Download the ROM of your choice; for non-Sense I like aospX from the Inspire 4G Dev forums. Save it in the sdcard in a place you remember.

2. Boot into recovery. You can do this by rebooting and holding power and volume-down, then navigating to recovery with the volume buttons and selecting it with the power button. Or, if you have it as an option when you long-press on the power button, just select recovery.

3. In your recovery, back up your current setup. Different recoveries differ in the exact settings, but find backup and do it.

4. In your recovery, find the wipe options. Wipe /system, /data, and /cache. Note that factory reset means to wipe data and cache only.

5. In your recovery, find the install/flash options. Navigate to the ROM you downloaded and select it. Wait for it to install.

6. Reboot.
[HTC Inspire 4G] JeromeSama:
Im really sorry about this .

i don't want to flash a new ROM , i want to upgrade my andriod version from 2.3.3 to .4.0.4
[HTC Inspire 4G] bananagranola:
But to upgrade, you need to flash a new ROM. The ROM is the upgrade. Since HTC does not have an official ICS for our phone, the only way to get it is by flashing a custom ROM.
[HTC Inspire 4G] JeromeSama:
alright thanks alot ,and sorry if i did frustrate you in any way
[HTC Inspire 4G] bananagranola:
No worries. We all start somewhere.

EDIT: oh, and make sure you update your recovery.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] cr723:

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Dave Trouser:
As the title says. Random apps are disappearing from my phone, and also appear as uninstalled in the Play Store. Their data and settings remain intact, as re-installing the app restores everything to how it should be.

It seems to happen after the phone is turned off and on again, but not every time.

Anyone seen this happen before, and know what the cause is? I've been using HyperDroid for ages, and haven't changed anything recently.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Marvlesz:
Okay, before I start, this is the first time I see such a problem.

I know a similar case where the whole phone would factory reset upon each restart, but not apps uninstalling. So please don't flame me if I post some insane

Maybe it's your sd card dying (do they die?) and your apps are on it? You haven't changed ANYTHING recently?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Dave Trouser:
The SD-Card is ok, and some apps are on it. It's not just SD-apps disappearing either - some that have been on the internal storage too. I have not changed anything since this started.

I mentioned this to my wife after I posted this thread, and she's been getting the exact same problem. However, she uses a STOCK HTC Rhyme! So it's not just me or the HyperDroid ROM or my HD2.

I'm not sure the apps are really being removed, but any sign of them in the app draw and Google Play is being removed. I didn't check to see if the apk was still present, as the last app to disappear was GO SMS, and I needed it back ASAP.

If/when it happens again, I will check for the apk and data files - I suspect they will still be there, as evidenced by the app settings being unchanged after re-installing the app.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
don't forget that depending on your google account backup settings, the app data may be automatically being restored from their backup when you reinstall the app.

Im not saying it IS being restored, and you are probably right, the data probably is still there, just pointing out that that's not a certainty.

Ive seen apps vanish, but only a month or two ago, on the beta/pre beta JB roms, and the apk was still there, just suddenly not installed.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Chainfire:
CF-Auto-Root is the root for "rooting beginners" and those who want to keep as close to stock as possible. CF-Root is meant to be used in combination with stock Samsung firmwares, and be the quickest and easiest way for your first root. In essence, it does nothing but install and enable SuperSU on your system, so apps can gain root access.

This thread serves as a central discussion and request thread for CF-Auto-Root. If you have questions about a specific CF-Auto-Root binary for a specific device, please go the relevant thread listed on the CF-Auto-Root homepage.

Donate

CF-Root and CF-Auto-Root have been available for many devices (over 50 different models !) and have clocked over 9 million downloads. This is not even counting custom ROMs that include CF-Root (non-Auto) kernels. Don't be a leech, buy me a beer (and use the "Thanks" button!). Imagine if every user had donated me $1...

What's installed

- SuperSU binary and APK

- Stock recovery (note that any other recovery you may have installed will be overwritten !)

What's the difference between CF-Auto-Root and CF-Root, and/or other root solutions ?

CF-Root (non-Auto) are manually built rooted kernels and/or flashables that usually provide more than "just root". CF-Auto-Root is built on an automated system that I am constantly improving that takes a stock recovery image and returns an automated rooting packages. These packages are designed to install and enable SuperSU on your device, so apps can gain root access, and nothing more.

The difference with many other rooting solutions is that those will often install a custom recovery for you (I am personally moving away from custom kernels and recoveries, for various reasons), while with CF-Auto-Root you will end up with a stock recovery again.

Not included - custom recovery

A custom recovery like CWM or TWRP is not included.

Not included - Triangle Away

Triangle Away can be used to reset the flash counter after installing CF-Root. The flash counter keeps track of how many custom firmwares you have flashed, as this voids warranty. (No idea what this about ? Read up on it, you will want to use this !)

Not included - adbd Insecure

As this CF-Root does not include a custom kernel, adb shell does not have root access by default (you can still get it by typing su inside the shell), nor is adb remount supported, nor will adb push and adb pull work on system files. adbd Insecure can be used to remedy this situation. (No idea what this is about ? Don't worry about it !)
