[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seromba:
I am currently running cm10 nightlies and updating almost every night. While I love the ROM and the life it brought back into my phone, there is one small issue I am having with MMS. I'm obsessed with battery life so I tend to turn off wifi, 3g, etc. as often as possible. This causes any incoming MMS to attempt to download endlessly, effectively maintaining my phone awake and draining my battery (while not notifying me I might add).

My first attempt at fixing this was disabling the "auto-retrieve" option in the messaging app settings. This did not fix my issue either as my phone will not notify me of the MMS waiting for download, yet still keeps my phone awake.

Sadly, I have resorted to enabling 3g ceaselessly.

So my question is: is there a fix for MMS or am I stuck keeping 3g on at all times?

EDIT: here are some screens.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilajrestnom:
Don't u get notifications for when u receive mms? Can't u just download the mms everytime u get one and turn off internet right after? There probably isn't an actual fix for this.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seromba:
That's exactly my issue. I hoped I would get notifications for MMS but I don't. I get the notification that I received an MMS AFTER I download it... Zero notifications at all while the MMS is either waiting for download or attempting to download.

Does anyone else run CM10 on the Epic 4g and have this issue? I can't be the only one...

What recovery did you flashed, another thing, try with another sd card, or repartiotion this one through recovery after that get some rom on it. If you have a card reader, check if the card is ok.

And don't rename zip's live them with their original names.

i flashed with A310e recovery...and the card is fine..I read somewhere to format the card with sdformatter and flash the rom from there and create the partition after the rom has booted..so i am trying that..I'll update you..thnx for reply btw.. :highfive:

Try installing CM10 Beta 2 on a clean, unformatted sd.

Hi guys,

im having a problem.

Model: S3T999v

Rom: Stock JellyBean VVLDLL1

Upgraded From: Stock ICS VLALH2

here's what i did to cause it;

flashed the upgrade.zip received ota

rebooted to recovery TWRP, flashed superuser

rebooted.

ran superuser [rom still working at this point]

ran triangle away, phone froze.

rebooted, stuck at android is upgrading screen, soft resets to blue logo after 30 seconds.

according to the search i did this seems similar to the cache problem in the note II. if thats the case i think i need an odin tar file to fix the cache partition.

if thats not the problem then i think it has to do with the sysscope apk in /system?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] elesbb:
All you have to do is boot your phone into download mode(power off press volume down home button and power button at the same time) plug your phone into your computer run Odin and flash a STOCK ROM back to your phone. Stock ROMs include PIT (partition information table) which will fix the cache issue. Then you need to pm a mod and have them move this thread. :)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cellphoneuser:
that i've done. but every time i flash root and install busybox upon reboot the android screen pops up again. the problem i think though has to do with the syscope.apk which samsung added in the new rom.

(i'll get the thread moved to general, don't worry)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] elesbb:
If you want root on a stock ROM then flash the already rooted firmware

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cellphoneuser:
there isnt a stock jellybean for the t999v with root yet.

anyways two issues to address.

The Superuser 3.1.1 su binary isnt compatible with jellybean VVLDLL1 at least it caused problems when i used it. most likely its a problem that was carried over from the last update of my rom

SuperSU did work.

when it didn't work it would stay stuck at the Android is upgrading screen during the "Starting applications" stage.

I guess i can mark this as partially solved.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] elesbb:
I thought people were able to use the SGH-T999 pre-rooted ROM as well?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cLogic:
the T999V is the canadian model of the tmobile T999

you cannot flash the T999 stock firmware cuz of the different modems and all the tmobile bloatware + modifications.

example: we have native android tethering.. tmobile (and other american carrier) versions have completely modified restricted tethering

not to mention that the T999 firmware is baseband LJA, and ours is LL1

if your problem is not something that a simple wipe cache will solve) ... especially in twrp since it reformats the partition ...

then maybe you need to re-flash the entire LL1 firmware for the T999V ...

try here ... http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SGH-T999V

you will need to know your region code .. ie VTR = Videotron

note:

this will revert entirely to stock ... you will have to re-install recovery, root and all your settings and apps (titanium)

[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] himmatsj:
Hi guys,

My tablet is rooted (and back to fully stock ROM from Acer's website). I updated OTA just a moment ago, and I was totally shocked to see the message "Booting kernal recovery image - Recovery verified failed..."

I tried rebooting, fastbooting,....they all don't work. How should I move on? What can be done now?

Please do help me. I need the tablet, and never knew such a situation could arise.

Thanks!
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Liquidator:
Sounds like your device's bootloader is locked again. Just perform a fastboot oem unlock and see whether that fixes your problem. Worked for me. :)

/edit: Which, of course, assumes you're able to get into fastboot. You should be able to get in using adb... what do you mean by "they all don't work"?
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Temporeiches:
got the same problem. how do you get into fastboot again?
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] himmatsj:
I assume yes, it is locked since I went back to a fully Stock ROM (which includes the locked bootloader?). But what has a bootloader got to do with an OTA update?

What I mean by they all don't work is that, even when I try shutting down, rebooting or enter stock recovery using the volume keys + power button, nothing works. Absolutely nothing! The screen just stays there.

I then thought, let the battery run down and maybe I can enter stock recovery and flash the zip for the stock ROM again from my SD card, but this doesn't work. The tablet just boots again to that same screen, with a message saying wiping off update cache and something to do with cdm.

I fear my device is gone. If anyone can lead me to getting back my device up and running, as a small token of appreciation, I will provide you with either $10 via PayPal or a $10 Google Play Gift Card code. This is really important for me, and I can't seem to find any help on this matter on the Internet.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Temporeiches:
I tried to update to JB, by flashing a stock rom through CWM. But then I try to get into the recovery I get hte same message. For me, if i dont try to get into the recovery it repeats an animation of the Acer logo and it never ends. I believe ill have to give it to the acer support. I also cant get into the stock recovery, so we pretty much have the same problem.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] himmatsj:
No, we don't have a same problem. I don't have CWM on my device, and I am doing an OTA. I can do absolutely NOTHING other than stare at the error message in red ink and the static Acer logo.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Temporeiches:
Okay sorry. Just want to tell you that I flashed the stock rom and so I lost CWM. If i find a way to fix mine ill tell you and it might help you.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] himmatsj:
As an update, after letting the tablets battery drain out and then charging it back up, the message I am seeing now is a little longer:

Erasing cache before SD update...

SD Update cmd: recovery

--Update_package=sdcard:update.zip

Booting recovery kernal image

Recovery verified failed...

PS: If anyone can make sense of this message, please tell me.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Liquidator:
If I recall correctly, the stock recovery has no user interface whatsoever. All it does is offer to flash a signed update.zip from the external SD card.

I have/had CWM installed, and got the "Recovery verified failed..." message after flashing JB as well. Thing is, it appears Acer is not only flashing the system, but also a new bootloader (which explains the new key-press combos necessary to get into recovery). Why it's not working for you on a stock device I am unable to tell, but something may have gone wrong during your update.

So, suggestion: Place the update.zip from Acer on a microSD and see what happens. With any luck, it'll just flash the system contained within the zip again and it'll work.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] himmatsj:

Change the Language and download the largest file (thats stock ICS) best is the RV28.RC02.WW.GEN1 so later you can retry an update
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] himmatsj:
Did the update fail because I already had the previous Acer firmware version as update.zip on my ext sd card? The tab is friggin useless as things stand!!
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Temporeiches:
Try this:

Here's how to get into fastboot (bootloader) manually:

Turn off your tablet

Hold the Volume Down (**) button and press the Power button

As soon as the tablet vibrates, let go of only the Power button (keep the Volume Down (**) button pressed) and immediately start switching the Screen Rotation Lock slider back and forth.

If this works continue.Connect your device to PC. Open your device manager look for fastboot under other devices and right click on it and select update driver. Then click browse my computer for driver software and locate the folder i could send by mail, just ask me. Click Next, and it might say it is a threat, but click continue (its safe as I edited it myself) and let it install. Next download http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1661324 and use it to unlock bootloader. Next follow instructions on http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1866378 Then place a ROM from NoThrills on an external sdcard, and insert it into the tablet. If the tablet is shut down get into CWM through the key combination for ICS bootloader power and ** sound button and for JB bootloader

* PowerON+Vol-

* At the first vibration release PowerOn, keeping Vol- pressed

* At the second vibration release Vol- and press Vol+

Next flash the rom from external sdcard and reboot. Now things should work.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] himmatsj:
Guys, can anyone help me understand, why when I do an OTA on a fully stock ROM (no bootloader unlocked, no custom recovery, no custom ROM and no root), do I get the message I mention earlier? (that is: Booting recovery kernel image, Recovery verified failed...)

Mind you, I did go to a custom ROM once, which was No Thrills A700 Fraken ROM for the A510. Could that be an issue here?

Please, just help me understand why I am continuously getting this error when I do an OTA. If you can successfully explain to me, I owe you $10 (PayPal or Google Play Gift Code).

Thanks!

PS: I am not looking for a solution (don't tell me flash this and that, I've done all that). I am merely looking for an explanantion as to why the above happens.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] malos1984:
it likely happend due to you rooting and flashing a non stock kernel.

when you apply the update off acers website after having it cwm and a customer rom i don't believe it will replace the recovery properly.

this is becasue the files on acers sites are updates and not full roms.

this is the reason why i did not do it to mine.

don't quote me on it but i had a similar issue with an old phone and ended up stuck on customer roms after that.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] himmatsj:
You mean when I flashed the A700 Franken ROM by NoThrills, that had a non-stock kernel?

If so, what can I do to get back stock kernel on my tablet? There has to be some way, right?

PS: I flashed the official files from Acer via the update.zip file from their website. From here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1897791

PSS: I checked, and I *think* you are wrong because by flashing the files from Acer's website I am back to the stock kernel. Version number: 2.6.39.4+ (Correct me if I am wrong to assume as such)
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] malos1984:
yes but i don't think those update.zip's restore the recovery partitions correctly. They seem to only restore the stock rom and nothing else?

Nothrills may be able to clarify that though. i don't know too much about how these roms work.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] himmatsj:
Yeah, I hope someone who is directly involved in these things like NoThrills can come and enlighten us.

Problem SOLVED!

Hi guys,

For all those having the "recovery verification failed" error while trying to do OTA, I know the fix!

The key is, you need to restore stock recovery manually. There's a zip file of the stock recovery here (at the bottom of the first post). Just restore stock recovery as per usual.

Steps to follow in brief:

1) Install stock recovery manually from HERE

2) If your's isn't the stock Acer ROM, download the correct ICS version for your region from HERE (place it as update.zip and follow steps as per normal to flash)

3) Go to settings>apps>all apps>systemupdater, and then clear data/cache.

4) Reboot tablet and you should get an OTA notification.

5) You're done!

so you can flash the mod Jelly Bean 4.2 and google now on stock rom a100?

Inviato dal mio A100 con Tapatalk 2
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] nsmith4:
I'm not sure what the 4.2 mod is, if its the gapps then it will work somewhat, some apps may have issues. You're better off sticking with the ICS gapps. If your'e talking about the keyboard and camera then the keyboard doesn't(the one I tried didn't) not sure about the camera.

The Google now for ICS did work for me but the last time I tried it was a month ago I think its changed since then not sure, but it should still work.

Just make sure you do a Nandroid so if it doesn't you can always go back.

Of coarse you need to be rooted and have a recovery like TWRP or CWM istalled.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] pio_masaki:
Really don't suggest using 4.2 gapps on anything lower then 4.1.2. Of course feel free to try it out, never know.

So I backed up my apps and data using the 4.0.0 toolkit before unlocking my bootloader and rooting. Now I am trying to restore and it starts the restore process but then immediately reboots. I am not sure what I am doing wrong but this is very frustrating. I can setup everything again from scratch but would rather not if i don't have to.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adamotron:
I am experiencing the same issue. I backed up with 2,1 with all available options past that being yes, proceeded to 1-click-for-all with Clockwork and SuperSU (As I have 4.2.1) and upon trying to restore with option 2,10 I get to the point where I can click "restore my data" as the toolkit displays the message "Unlock your tablet and confirm the operation."

I did not encrypt my restore file, if that is relevant.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Captpt:
I've only had my TF700 for less then a week and I know already like my Galaxy S2&S3 I'm going to be rooting and installing a custom ROM on my TF700, strange that I didn't feel this way with my old Nexus 7 but man this TF700 is sweet but suffers from lag at times to where I need to do the Power/volume Down cleanout at least once a day and that helps but not enough...

As with my Galaxy S3 I don't want the newest wildest ROM rather one that is close to stock as possible YET is faster, cleaner and doesn't bog down... The double and triple taps to accomplish tasks or while browsing is driving me crazy already, I am totally surprised by this seeing this is the top of the line tablet and as good or better then the iPad hardware/processor wise..

So any suggestions and/or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!! Now I'm off to start reading up on unlock and root procedures :)

CleanROM inheritance :D
[Asus Transformer TF700] Captpt:
Interesting sdbags in the little reading up I have done that does seem to be the most logical choice.. Reminds me of KyanROM I'm running on my GS3, well other then one is ICS and the other is JB lol... But both look to be stripped down/slightly jacked up stock ROMS, I always find these types have practically little conflicts with apps and include more customazation without taking a battery hit, speaking of lol.. Are you running CleanROM now and has your battery life increased or decreased?? Obviously that isn't as important with the Tablets(you won't miss calls if you get in trouble battery wise with a Tab). Also is there any Lag with CleanROM?? It is my biggest gripe and THE reason I'm looking to Root and Flash :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thats OK:
Pretty sure SBDags is running a version of CleanROM :)

Do a bit more reading up on the ROM development work for the Infinity.

You'll most likely be very happy stepping away from a stock ROM tablet and going with a custom version.
