If you do download it again, check the MD5 of the file and compare it to the MD5 in the Original Post.

Here is a link to one of a few tools floating around on XDA:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1939007

It takes a minute to install and 3 seconds to verify the MD5 of your download. It's a great habit to get in to and I never install a new ROM without first checking.

the code match green picture =( any can help me
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] chinoyabeta:

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] siani_8:
The codes match which means your download is uncorrupted. Was that a new download or the first one where you had problems with the install?

If it's a new download, then give your installation another go.

If that was the MD5 verification of your first download where you had the installation problem, then we will have to move on and figure out another possible reason why your installation is not working.

Its failing on verifying your device. You can fix this by Odin a root66 and then flash DX2 or you can manually edit you prop file and change to d2tmo
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jdidtht:
Tell me what version your recovery is. I have this happen twice and both times my recovery was not the very latest update. Just check for me.

Edit.. Also don't Odin back to stock or format your sd all that crap is absolute last resort. I bet you are able to flash other ROMs as well right now. Either way my moneys on your recovery.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Qverse:
I also think it may be the recovery needs to be update. Not sure what recovery your using but

I made cwn touch 6.0.3.0 in a flash-able form while back Here

and on that treat also you can find others. Odin is always my LAST resort.

Apparently their site is not only private, but invite only registration. And discussion about the anthrax forums is prohibited in xda....so, since "let me Google that for you" is typically only used to suggest how easy it is to find the answer...this, if anything, shows the opposite.

I imagine that linking the kernel is kosher, right?

Market Updater

Does anyone know a sure way to stop or disable the play

store market from auto-updating itself to newer versions?

I would like to keep my existing version because I like the way it looks,

I like the color scheme and it's layout.

Unfortunately so far there are no skins or themes for the play store app.

Perhaps the reason that the devs are not skinning it or making themes

for it is due to the fact that it auto-updates itself.

Thanks.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Xenoism:
Ah, so it isn't kosher. Gotcha, well that's unfortunate.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] siani_8:
While the Play Store app is open, go to app settings and uncheck Auto-Update apps. Additionally each individual app has it's own check box for auto updating. Make sure they are unchecked too if you are finding that some are still auto updating.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Misterjunky:
re: play store

I guess I did not express myself too well.

The thing I want to do is to prevent the actual Play Store from updating itself...

Not all t he apps which I downloaded and installed from the play store.

I just want to keep the play store version I have now. I like it's layout and colors.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] siani_8:
No that was my fault; you were clear and I just misread.

Edit: I thought there was a Market Updater that I froze with Titanium in the past when I had a themed Play Store/Market but I don't see it now :(
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Misterjunky:
re: google play store.

That's what I just did and so far it did not update but I am almost sure it will.

Yesterday each time I re-installed the default-original version that comes with

this Darthstalker rom it auto-updated itself within 1-2 minutes of me using the

play store. So perhaps the freezing method might work on v3.10.

I read in some xda forum that only the 3.10.xx version of it can be set to disable updates

using the freezing method and Darthstalker rom came with the 3.10.xx version.

So hopefully it will not auto-update.

The app name I froze with titanium is called "google play services 3.0.27".

I did not want to freeze the actual "phonesky.apk" which is the actual play store itself.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] siani_8:
I don't think freezing Google Play Services is a good idea either. I think other apps need that. Since the Market Updater seems to be something that is no longer used, my advice is no good. I'm trying to search for an updated remedy but I'm not finding anything useful yet.

Edit: If I find anything I will PM you. Thread may be getting a little off topic...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Misterjunky:
re: play store.

I know it's not going to be an easy thing, I must have googled for an hour trying to find

useable information about it.

So far the freezing of that file has no effect on other apps, I opened a lot of them and they

all work fine including the actual google play store itself.

I even uninstalled a couple of upgradeable apps and restored older versions using titanium backup

just to see if the play store would recognize that the couple of apps could use an update which it did.

If the only thing which would no longer work would be the "auto updating" of all apps

feature in the play store settings I would be satisfied.

Thanks for your help..........

I know you like the layout of the previous play store but here is the new play store with the inverted colors, looks great with this ROM. maybe jovy could add it to future updates.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Misterjunky:
Yes, I forgot to mention that when I was googling about disabling play store from

updating itself, I saw many posts saying that if the play store app is modified then

that would disable it from auto updating itself.

So far all the the modded play stores I tried had black backgrounds making it difficult

to see many of the links. I already checked out the inverse play store and that's the one

which is solid black background making it difficult to see many of the links and other

things..

(on some of the screens where it has a black background some of the the text is also black)

Hopefully someone will modify the new 4.x play store to be the same color scheme as

the play store v3.xx is.

In play store v3.10.xx instead of modifying the actual screen colors only the settings screen

colors should be modified so the modification will not mess up the actual market screens.

Thanks

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] chinoyabeta:
help

can you explain how to do that
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Misterjunky:
Here is a step by step guide for you.

Here is the link to the Tmobile Stock & Rooted firmware you need:

http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390169635556426451

After downloading it make a folder on your desktop and unzip

the file using Winzip or 7zip so the TAR files are in the same

new folder you just made.

Here is a link for ODIN (a windows app) http://d-h.st/Q14

First Download and extract Odin into the new folder you made.

Download the firmware of your choosing (use the root66 version if you want root)

Run Odin by double clicking the Odin.exe within the folder you extracted

Turn off your phone and boot into

DOWNLOAD MODE

(Volume Down + Home + Power Hold until phone powers up, then release and press Volume Up to enter Download Mode)

Once in Download Mode, connect the USB/Charger cable to the phone and plug into the USB port on your computer.

You should now see a COM** port listed toward the top-left of Odin (under ID:COM)

Click on the PDA button in the middle-right area of Odin.

Browse to and select the FW you downloaded

Make sure Auto-Reboot and F. Reset Time are the only options checked and that PDA is the only other thing checked.

TRIPLE CHECK your settings and that you have selected the correct firmware for your model phone and are using the correct options.

If you are using a laptop, make absolutely sure you are plugged in, or if on battery, that it is charged enough and will not go into sleep mode during flash.

Click Start to begin the flash. This will take a while, so be patient!

Once complete, in the top-left box in Odin, it will say PASS and the phone should have automatically rebooted.

You may unplug the phone and close Odin if you wish.

Wait at least 5-10 minutes for the system to boot the first time and then build its cache! (It may seem to hang during boot, this is normal and you must be patient!!!)

I did it the same way and did not have any problems either. Someone in an earlier post said that if you flash it from your external SD card you will have problems with Aroma. I have mine on my internal SD i have never had any problems at all.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Araltd:
For the record, I installed X2 last night. Using a MD5 verified download, TWRP 2.5.0.0 (newest updated from goomanager off play store), had the rom.zip on my sdcard (external 32gb class 10), booted in to twrp recovery, wiped (formatted) system/data/user/all, twrp warned I was going to loose everything and there was no coming back, I had to TYPE "YES" to proceed, did that 3x in a row (not sure why but I seem to remember seeing that somewhere), did the cache wipes, and formatted once more.

I tapped reboot, twrp warned me there was NO OS on the device, and asked if I wanted to install SU because it said the device was not rooted anymore (?), so I agreed to install SU again directly from TWRP. WITHOUT REBOOTING, I flashed the DSX2.zip rom directly (same twrp session) from external sd card, phone was not plugged in (not sure if that matters?)

NO PROBLEM WHAT-SO-EVER. Went thru the aroma menu, never crashed once, choose no s-voice, experia launcher, accuweather, normal font, themed gapps, etc... installed just fine. Rebooted, stayed on the boot animation for a couple minutes longer than I expected it too, but I left the phone alone for about 10 minutes total... then I rebooted again (as per OP) - proceeded with setup, and so far everything seems fine.

I restored my apps from Titanium backup, which DID restore s-voice :eek: from the backup, but so far everything still seems ok.

If I were to do it again, I'd manually select which apps to restore from backup instead of just a batch restore all previously installed apps - since that reinstalled s-voice and who knows what all else :(

I wanted to post my experience since people seem to be having some issue installing and aroma crashing. That's why I outlined what I did and how... 2 thumbs up here.

I will ask this question however, since I used TB to backup my apps/data before the upgrade, then using TB again to restore my apps and data, which it did, it restored sms/mms, call logs, s-voice, etc. Could I have mistakenly restored older versions of what makes DSX2 cool? (ie the mms.apk, or any of the settings, scripts, etc...???) Was doing a batch restore a bad thing?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Misterjunky:
TI backup/restore

Batch restore is just fine, just be sure that you only restore apps&data do not restore any "system data".

Also next time you restore be sure to select "Restore missing apps with data" and not "All apps with data".

That way TB will not over-write newer versions of existing apps with older versions.

Good Luck!

You may have to just leave it on that boot screen for a little but longer. This ROM takes longer than other ROMs to boot up. When I flashed it I was just about to reflash cause it was a couple few mins on the galaxy screen longer than most ROMs. Give it like a max of 5mins which is overkill but just try it.. Otherwise their is no reason that it really shouldn't boot up if you wiped and all that.

well actually I even left it on galaxy screen overnight Still a no go. and the bad thing is I cant odin back to stock to see if it fix it cause I put ubuntu on my pc. what a mistake lol but I can flash any other rom and work fine

re: Odin Flash without PC

As long as your phone is working with a dirty flash you can use Mobile ODIN to flash the stock-rooted

rom without using your PC. Download and Install "Mobile Odin"

Download Mobile ODIN Lite-v3.65

then download the stock-rooted rom below to your phone's internal or external sdcard then open mobile

odin, after that the rest should be self explanatory.

Mobile Odin is easy to use.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Misterjunky:
re: Mobile Odin

I forgot to mention that you can also install Mobile ODIN Lite from the Play Store. (free app)

So all you need to do is download the T999 stock-rooted rom to the computer then from computer

to the phone or use the phone to download it directly.

It looks like you either dislike ODIN or just don't know how to use it properly...

(or perhaps you are just lazy to use it)

Do you want the users manual for ODIN, I can give you a link if you like. LOL
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bofiana:
I think he means that ODIN back to stock isn't the answer to every little problem. 80-90% of the time, there's other simpler, faster fixes than ODIN. Like upgrading the recovery u use or performing a full wipe before u flash, etc.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jdidtht:
Yea in saying that their is no point to jump back to the Odin process after you already have set your partitions correctly after the first time.. You use Odin as a bandaid for being too lazy to take the time to trouble shoot and actually learn new things. You get stumped and then you give up and run cry to Odin. All I'm stating is that since this is a development thread that these people that have legitimate bugs and issues maybe it would be good for the class if we could trouble shoot so we all get to learn for the future instead of throwing in the towel at every stupid issue. Most can be resolved without if we take the time and run through some basic steps. That is why i ride the **** out of you because it is indeed you who is lazy. And is you who doesn't know how to use common sense to solve basic issues. Their may definitely be a time and place where a user gets in a tight spot where they have no choice but to get back to stock. But i see you posting links to people for 90% of issues here.. Not really needed junky

The more I read your posts the more I think you would make an excellent forum moderator here in XDA forums.

You are very fast at catching posts with even the slightest infractions in them and letting everyone know about it too.

Too bad that online applications for forum moderators has been closed for a while now or I would give you the link.

The only way to become a mod now is by getting recommendations from existing forum and senior level moderators.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] qais9:
Wth, all he's saying is you should trouble shoot an issue and use Odin as a last resort. And that's absolutely true, just because your having xyz issue Odin isn't necessarily the easiest solution. This is a development thread and other users may be having the same issues so why not troubleshoot and find the root cause instead of being lazy and just saying use odin.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Misterjunky:
Here is a sure fix for the volume issue.

Download this fix and flash it using CWM recovery, it's made for

When I installed DSX2 I chose the option to theme gmail to black. Looks great.

Ok here's the problem, gmail is saying I have # of new unread emails but all the headers look the same = as in, all look like they've been read. But there is clearly a number on that email account saying # unread. If I log in to Gmail using the browser, I can clearly see which ones are unread, but not in the themed black gmail app.

Am I missing something?
