APKs won't install, can't press Install

Just in case someone else has this issue. After the latest upgrade I went to install apps, apk files from my sd card, and it would start but I could never press Next/Install, only Cancel. After reading a bit found that Halo has to be disabled and then you can press Install/Next. All is right with the world. I am guessing that Halo use to come disabled in previous versions or I activated it by accident.

I am still just loving this Rom. Thanks for all your work.

the on/off screen that shrinks into a white line

How is this accomplished? I want to do it to my samsung s4. Is it just a series of gifs assigned to the screen on/off button or how did you accomplish it?

With hellybean i have on my fascinate, when you hit the top right button the turns the screen on/off, it like has a animation, that collapses into the middle before going dark. I wanna know how that was done.
[Fascinate Android Development] Epicardium:
I don't suppose anyone running this ROM has also run CM 10.1 on an Incredible 2?? I'm needing to get a new phone that is 3G (no 4G because I'm on Pageplus), and I'm torn between the Fascinate and Inc2. Both seem to handle CM 10.1 pretty well from what I've read.
[Fascinate Android Development] Ev3rM0r3:
Fascinate is old, and with jellybean on it it does run OK, BUT, the minute you put more then 5 apps on it you get tremendous slow does, possible crashes, and it gets worse then stock fascinate. Get a galaxy 3 if you can, i belive they are free now.
[Fascinate Android Development] Epicardium:
Thanks, but I can't use a 4g phone without doing a bunch of manual programming. Stuck with 3g, and I want a 4 in screen. Hence, fascinate and Inc 2 are my best options.
[Fascinate Android Development] bbrad:
No just no dude your not using your phone right.

And fyi: nothing is worse then stock fascinate I don't know how your making these claims do you even own this phone just a minute and I'll post some benchmarks of my phone loaded with about 10 or 20 apps

I suggest the fassy mostly becouse it has great devoloment it is fast don't know what the dude above was saying he must have us down locked to 200mhz and not know how to use task manager anyway our devices is stable and will get key lime pie I'm sure the Inc will to but that's just my reasons.
[Fascinate Android Development] Epicardium:
Great, thank you. So this Rom runs smooth with everything working? I've skimmed the thread and can't find anything wrong with the release. I've gathered that battery life is not great, if I'm reading correctly. Now to find some camera comparisons to the Inc 2...
[Fascinate Android Development] hhp_211:
[MENTION=992077]Epicardium[/MENTION]

The fassy is an awesome device,,, also don't know that other guys bad experience,,, i have 80+ user apps with no issues,, most will agree.

You may find 5% or less of all fassy jellybean users that have issues too great to run 4.2.2 ROMs. We all have different needs/wants.

Also I'm on page plus and works great.

.
[Fascinate Android Development] bbrad:
The Inc 2 camera will be better becouse of the 3 extra mp also here them benchmarks results this is stock speed on demand it puts it ahead of the kindle fire HD and on par almost with the galaxy nexus it competed in CPU just the graphics beat it. And this is with 3 launchers. :p
[Fascinate Android Development] djjstew:
Fassy on Page Plus through Kitty Wireless been using this Ron for long time also other Rome and have 90+ apps for a almost 4 year old device the Fassy rocks! Currently have no plan to change. I will say I find it works the best when I do a reboot every few days maybe that's just me.
[Fascinate Android Development] bbrad:
Kitty wireless lol :p yea rebooting does help. That's what that guy was saying slows down with 5 apps lol :rolleyes:
[Fascinate Android Development] SupraLance:
Because it's a Nexus sibling, the Fascinate will have a longer development life for custom ROM's. It's also lighter/thinner, better bluetooth, and twice the internal storage than the Incredible2. Although the Incredible2 has FM radio, better GPS, better camera, and twice the RAM, I'd still stick with the Fascinate.
[Fascinate Android Development] Ev3rM0r3:
Had the phone since release day, have had over 50 roms installed on it, been through 3 batteries, at times had to try several different radios, the phone itself manageable is stable and fast enough to use, does it come even close to a s2 s3 or s4, not even close on a benchmark scale. The other problem is that the battery life is just crap in comparison to the new phones. I might get 12-16 hours out of my fascinate on a new battery or i get 1.5 days out of my s4. My exageration on 5 apps was probably harsh but it depends no the apps used. But seriously unless you clock the cpu on it killing battery life apps do open slowly, and even using the phone feature to dial out has tremendous latency compared to ANY new phones.

Even if i clean the phone out, wipe it, install a new rom, I get maybe a day or 2 with smooth running, and then once i get 20 apps installed its just laggy and slow again. There is not one of you here that could prove me wrong on this. I dropped fascinate for a s4 for a reason, it was 50x faster, if fascinate was good enough I'd use it. Also s2, s3 AND s4 all are 3g/4g, which means they ALL work on a 3g network. Should read up first before thinking a 4g phone only works on 4g, I disabled my 4g as its a battery drain and with limited data who needs the extra burn speed.
[Fascinate Android Development] tekweezle:
just buy 3500 mah batteries and an external charger on eBay for cheap and battery life won;t be an issue. I am not running the ROM(I am running JellyBro) but I can tell you that the Fascinate is a solid phone running CM10.1 4.22. I get 1 1/2 days to 2 days between battery swaps)

I don;t know about the Dinc2 but I also have a couple of the regular Dincs.They are running CM10.1 4.22(I am running (tiny's 5-16 and Evervolv on a couple of them) as well with good battery life using 3500 mah batteries.

Your phone is only as good as the development behind it. atleast here, there is an active dev community behind the Fascinate. Other phones I considered were the dual core Motorola X2 and Droid 3 but looks like development is pretty dead on their forums.
[Fascinate Android Development] bbrad:
12-16 hours yea with heavy usage my mom doesn't charge hers about every 2-3 days with normal usage so that's bull right there. Oh and I done did prove you wrong look at the benchmarks now your saying the kindle fire HD is slow and the galaxy nexus? And was good enough it IS good enough. And what are you talking about 4g? Nobody said anything here about 4g.
[Fascinate Android Development] SupraLance:
<<<KittyWireless PagePlus as well...

Back on topic, which Gapps should be used with the latest HellyBean?

The original post hasn't been updated since 2-15-13 and the Gapps there are 11-30-12... Nothing listed on the Hellybean website either...
[Fascinate Android Development] bbrad:
Get the latest gapps from here www.rootzwiki.com/gapps :D
[Fascinate Android Development] Epicardium:
Actually, you may want to read up before assuming a 4g phone will work on a 3g network like pageplus. Yes, 4g phones have 3g capability. BUT, not even the 3g will work without doing a bunch of manual programming. I have a galaxy nexus currently, which I programmed to work on pageplus and it somehow spontaneously lost all of my programming last night (including my repaired esn). I have also programmed a thunderbolt to work on pageplus, so I know what I'm talking about.

I don't have the time or desire to program a phone right now, so I'm sticking with 3g phones even if it means stepping backward from my galaxy nexus.

Please stop comparing to more modern 4g phones. Of course they're faster.

I specifically asked about fascinate vs inc2.

I should mention that my wife has the Inc 2 running miui on gingerbread, and I have set up 6 family members with the inc2 using skyraiders Zeus Rom...so I have a lot of experience with the inc2. The fascinate intrigues me though.

Sounds like I may need to give the fascinate go. Btw, my 5mp droid x and galaxy nexus do as well as many 8mp cameras, so I wasn't sure if the fascinate 5mp was similar.

Thanks again for everyone's input.

Isn't it the default screen off animation you are talking about? I didn't add it.

Which rom were you using before?

Sorry guys. Wasn't trying to hijack the thread. I think I have my answer though. Thanks.
[Fascinate Android Development] kb8no:
I use Hellybean 10.1 on my fascinate and chilly cm10.1 on my inc2. After trying lots of ROMs I found these both to be good and stable. You can flip a coin. They both work great. They are functionally indistinguishable.
[Fascinate Android Development] ekowanz:
Im using laboDJ modular gapps... Works nice though. And i can choose which app i install.

Btw fassy is so great, no lag or what so ever. Until the rom development of fassy is dead, then ill upgrade my phone

Loving all the updates for Helly lately, but is there a way to get rid of that hideous Halo icon up at the top of the notification drawer? I know it's minor, but it's very distracting and since I don't care about Halo it's kind of obnoxious too.

into cm yes but hellybean no 4.3 isnt ready yet but it would be idea to start merging now

Seen that about cm but there still having build problems so I guess we may have to wait a week or 2 until we can see it.
[Fascinate Android Development] Unjustified Dev:
thats no issue he can merge then push it to another branch so it wont effect his builds. It will be easier for him to merge since helly is more inline with cm than most roms I have seen.

I tried to install hellybean and followed the instructions

I flashed phone back to factory. with a file named CI500_VZW_EH03_GB_CM.tar.md5

added clockwork recovery. cwm4_fixed_for_cm7-ODIN.tar

flashed superuser Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip

installed ice cream sandwich, cm_fascinatemtd-ota-eng.BUILD12.zip then rebooted.

then booted into recovery.

when to install helly bean. with below instructions.

Reboot into recovery

Wipe data/ factory reset (if you are coming from an other rom)

Wipe cache

Advanced -> Wipe dalvik cache

install zip from sdcard *** stuck here.

flash latest Gapps

reboot your phone.

*** It asked me questions about phone . i choose answers til it said to install click next.

I waited it said it was at a point to need a reboot then rebooted into some "devil recovery mode" i went to install from SD it could not load sd card.

i noticed when i did a reboot into clockwork recovery now which is 4.0.1.0

it says cant mount /cache/recovery/command

cant mount /cache/recovery/command

cant mount /cache/recovery/log

cant open /cache/recovery/log

cant mount /cache/recovery/last_log

cant open /cache/recovery/last_log

i dont know what that means.

So any ideas on why this would not install all the way?

I have a feeling that maby i need a different version of clockwork recover than the one listed above? Number 4?

if not what should i be looking into next?

Also is there a way to just flash the stock gingerbread to it, then have odin have clockwork recovery installed then install jellybean without doing any other steps?

I had no trouble going from gingerbread to ics watching a youtube video. But using similar methods to get ICS on the phone does not seem to be working for jellybean and i have no idea why. also i did do a md5sum on the files to make sure the new ones for jellybean were not corrupted.

Also anytime ive tried to use latest daily build of jellybean or the hellybean one they seem to go thru the motions of installing but the newer gray looking clockwork recovery mod seems to think the sd card cannot mount, even though on other versions of clockwork recovery it reads them just fine.
[Fascinate Android Development] SupraLance:
Sounds like it could be an issue with the repartitioning or switch to MTD. Did you use the correct Atlas_v2.2.pit with the EH03 tar file?

The CWM4 you Odin'd in the 2nd step is the correct one to use.

I never flash SU before the THS Rom, but this should not affect anything.

I use THS build2 instead of the build12 you used, don't know if this makes any difference, but build12 may not have the neccessary code. The purpose of this step is because the code to change the file structure from Samsung's proprietary RFS to the better MTD structure is in the early THS rom's, and the JB rom's assume the phone is already MTD when they are flashed.

See section 4 of the Droidstyle Guide for more info.

[Fascinate Android Development] noahtampabay:
Thanks for detailed instructions, I was looking over all steps before trying and the only thing on the list I dont know where to select is .

three finger into CWM blue recovery 4 [cwm4_fixed_for_cm7]

you have to use this it lets file system properly update from a bml ROM to an mtd ROM

what part of menu tells clockwork mod to update bml to mtd?

once I understand that part ill try all the steps in order.

Thanks.

also when i do "wipe dalvick cache" it says E:unknown volum for path [/sd-ext]

so what does that mean?
[Fascinate Android Development] noahtampabay:
Thanks!! I installed THS build 2 and used my typically install procedure for ICS and it worked perfect.

Does that mean now that build 2 is on i can reflash up to 12 now or does that require something else to be done?
[Fascinate Android Development] hhp_211:
With three fingers:::

hold the power,

and both vol. up/down buttons

continue to hold until you see the samsung logo appear the second time,,, and let off

Now you'll be booted into CWM recovery

""what part of menu tells clockwork mod to update bml to mtd?"

its built into the recovery,,, using newer versions of cwm wont convert it properly

you dont have to do anything extra...

.

"wipe dalvick cache" it says E:unknown volum for path [/sd-ext]"

nothing to worry about,,, carry on with flash process

[Fascinate Android Development] noahtampabay:
Is there a older version of jellybean i should be flashing too first before the newer one? Seems that hellybean or the current nightly build causes the phone to reboot and go to newer clockwork mod, instead of rebooting and finishing the install.

I took teamhacksuns version 2 and just ran that and on reboot that installed there version of ICS but I'm still not sure why every jellybean zip i try to install locks up or reboots without finishing install.

---------- Post added at 01:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:33 PM ----------

Do they make a jellybean without MTD ? that seems to be the problem i think.
[Fascinate Android Development] hhp_211:
It is supposed to...

It normally takes Flashing of the same ROM zip file [ 3 ][Three] times to fully convert the filesystem and partitions properly coming from the stock GB - EH03 - bml - ROM to a jellybean mtd ROM

""mtd ICS ROMs"" and older ""jellybean 4.1.x ROMs"" were different too...

""" then while still in recovery,, flash your 4.2.x ROM of choice,,,

most likely it will auto reboot into a newer CWM recovery 6.0.x.x,,, this is normal

,, but you will need to go back and choose to::

flash your 4.2.x ROM of choice AGAIN,

if it auto reboots you back into recovery again, still that is fine, simply flash your 4.2.x ROM of choice AGAIN,

if it auto reboots and tries to load the ROM ,,, Wait ,,, patiently,,, maybe as much as 8-10 minutes for it to boot all the way up.

you may ultimately have to flash 1 more time,, some ROMs seem do be more finicky than others.

After that you really should be good to go.

On the 1st boot of your new 4.2.x ROM give the filesystem about 5-10 minutes to scan through everything before making any changes to any of your ringtones or notifications

after that reboots into recovery,,,Wipe cache,,, and Install a gapps zip of choice::: [ either whats recommended by the ROM dev/maintainer,,, or an official gapps of the appropriate date that matches your ROM ]""

nothing wrong with flashing THS build 2 then a 4.2.x ROM, or any other rom in between,,but its not necessary

@noahtampabay

Do they make a jellybean without MTD ? that seems to be the problem i think.

Yes it is Geewiz ROM - BML based ROM

MTD is not the problem,,, its very critical to do steps in proper order...

there was older instructions from droidstlye that included flashing with THS build 1/2 and it too is fool proof, both ways you just cant Add and steps or overlook any steps...

Ok i just tried to redo this with intentions of having to do it 3 times for flashing the rom and this time for hellybean it actually showed progress bar and got to a point where it said needed to reboot. I got some gargoil spash screen and a new looking version of clockwork mod

so if this was the 1st time trying to do it, should i use the new "devil touch recovery v6.0.1.5 to try to refash with hellybean? or should i 3 finger boot back into the older clockwork 4 mod to do "flash 2 and flash 3" to make it take?

really... i know it can be confusing to get nailed down the first couple times doing this but

I guess it should read,,,

Any newer recovery 6.0.x.x, or new TWRP 2.x.x Recovery,

the geewiz 4.4 full wipe odin is the only thing that is going to get you on jellybean without some focused efforts :)

It is a great ROM it uses the samsung std BLM set up, He has its own set of instructions, so forget everything you know here... if you choose that route. :)

and it makes me download the file helly_bean_allinone_20121115.zip

******This must be the problem..... I went back to website to follow previous steps and somehow this time it is showing a different file to download named Hellybean-20130723-fascinatemtd.zip

So now im going to try all the above steps with the fascinate made hellybean rom and see if it goes thru this time..... not even sure how this was even possible but glad you asked!!

The gb eh03 im using is named CI500_VZW_EH03_GB_CM.tar.md5

Im using odin 1.85

Atlas file is Atlas_v2.2.pit

if i install any ICS roms they just install without much effort at all.

Im going to look into the other way you posted as I really dont like whatevers going on with this way to get jellybean.

Ill try the geewhiz full rom method as anything else seems easier.

well now i have the propery helly bean rom, I do get to step where you boot into the NEW #6 bootloader and when i go to install from sd it says it cannot mount sd card....

I took card out and put into computer and it reads just fine. So what would make the new bootloader interface not want to read from sd card? maby i should buy one of the faster SD cards to try out? or would this be another issue?
[Fascinate Android Development] hhp_211:
The bootloader would be done from odin also

If you downloaded a zip file you need to extract it and select the .tar to install

[Fascinate Android Development] noahtampabay:
100% Installed finally. The SD Card actually was faulty it wont read in cell phone or computer. So i opened up a new one I had and used new rom and it installed on the very first try......

Thanks AGAIN!!
[Fascinate Android Development] noahtampabay:
After setting it up for a day and customizing it , I love this ROM!!

One more question though.

In my ICS mod, it had a option to turn on Zram, I dont see that in this rom? Is this something I should try to figure out how to add, or should I just not worry about it? Im just trying to maximize extra memory to make sure calls stay perfectly clear.

*I have had good luck on all calls so far but just trying to optimize everything.
