Not sure how to delete this, if a mod could please delete as I think this is probably better off in the i9305 Q&A..

I have a few questions all related to avoiding bricking by doing something stupid..

Where does CWM happen in the boot process, is it before the rom is booted?

I guess my real question is, if I decided I wanted to play around with porting ROMs to the i9305 (from i9300) and I stuffed up something majorly that resulted in me not being able to use the phone, will I be able to still get into CWM and restore a NANDROID backup or reinstall a stock i9305 rom?

Is there any possibility of a ROM wiping CWM and me losing access to recovery and my phone?

How hard is it to really brick a phone if you have CWM installed, what would a person need to do? (or more importantly what should someone NOT do if they dont want to end up with a paperweight)

Hi to all

After Testing many methods for installing Bootloaders and Different roms, I finally Got TWRP 2.3.3 + Honeycomb 3.2.1 (provided by root-3.2.1-V4 Working together fine.

Very strangely, When I try to flash Any AROMA-INSTALLER enabled ICS or Jellybean rom, Aroma installer Freezes in TWRP 2.3.3 and Other Civato-based roms flash but Nothing loads.

TWRP 2.3.3 is installed based on Skriylax_CS Bootloader V8.

.. ALL Honeycomb Roms install and work just fine.

Who knows what could be the problem? .

Thanks :cowboy:

Hello only certain recoveries work with ICS. download Acer Recovery Installer from the store and choose one of the recoveries from the list they provide.

After bricking my Defy for several occasions, I have compiled a "custom-sbf" :silly:

USE THIS AS LAST RESORT! ie: if you flashed GB DEFY+ ROM OR CHINESE ROM ON DEFY GREEN LENS.

Instructions:

Install MotoDrivers

Install RSD Lite

Charge Phone 100%

Now turn off the phone

Put the phone into Bootloader Mode (turn the phone on by pressing the "vol up" + "Pwr")

Wait for the drivers to install

Flash SBF to the phone

No more returning to stock rom! (;

Cyanogenmod 7.2.0 (Gingerbread)

MultiBoot (Pre-Installed)

MultiBoot Manager (Pre-Installed)

Just enough to recover and create a multibooting system or flash another system

How to use MultiBoot?

Systems are located at /sdcard/multiboot/

Create a folder called CM9 and place three .img files inside (system, data, cache)

Pre-Compiled images are attached below

To install a Virtual System...

Go to Bootmenu (vol down on power up blue light)

Select Multiboot

Select Recovery

Select Stable Recovery

Select the virutal system you are working on (CM9?)

Install the rom you want to multiboot

Now to boot the system you go back to the bootmenu and select "boot"

Set Default =2nd init

Now Select 2nd-System and boot your virtual system

Download

I just compiled many developers' work, thus all credits go to them.

Thank you,

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] coolkwc:
Hi to all master here.

Sorry if my question had been asked before, but i really can't find any solution for that.

Phone: Xperia Mini Pro

FW: Stock ICS 4.0.4 (.587) with stock kernel

Problem: When connect to router secured with WPA/WPA2, my phone non-stop looping between 'authenticating -> saved -> authenticating -> repeat..." and can't obtained IP address. While WEP is OK with my current SMC router, but failed with D-Link. No problem for open wifi. So if i go to those coffee shop with free WIFI, i have to try my luck because most of them are secured by password. So far all failed with WPA/WPA2 security.

I never encounter such problem on previous GB 2.3.4 FW, all until i update to ICS 4.0.4.

I read alot of similar problem for Xperia Mini Pro user, seems like no countermeasure for that.

Effort to countermeasure this problem:

1. Factory reset.

2. Repair FW using PC companion.

3. Downgrade to GB 2.3.4 and update to ICS 4.0.4 again.

4. Fresh ICS 4.0.4 install (Flashtool, wipe data).

5. Flash Lupus kernel.

All the countermeasure above can't solve my problem. Do you guys have any idea? Flash custom ROM?

Thanks in advance.

Bro, thanks for the link, i will try it once i get back home.

Anyway, is this wifi modules same as modules in stock ICS 4.0.4? What's the purpose of this flashing if there are same?

I would like to know the purpose and reason for this flash.

Thanks in advance.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] abcdjdj:
Some of the kernels do not have the wifi modules included in the ramdisk and hence you have to flash the wifi modules manually, although flashing a stock rom should take care of everything. Still, no harm in trying. Also, whenever you change from gb to ics always wipe the data. These are ics 4.0.4 modules.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] coolkwc:
Hmm, as i mentioned previously, i tried update to ICS from GB without wipe data, with wipe data also no luck. I believe the kernel already built in the wifi modules, else i won't able to connect at all. The main problem is can't connect if the security (be it WEP, WPA/WPA2) is enabled in router, no problem is security disable.

Anyway, i will try later.:D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] abcdjdj:
What channel does your wireless router use? Try using a lower channel, flash the modules and try resetting your router to default settings.

Check this - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1717060
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] coolkwc:
Ok, bro, let's make things clear.

Now this problem is happen after i using ICS, GB no problem at all. Downgrade to GB i can use wifi even lock with WEP, WPA or whatever security. So it should be ROM/OS problem rather than router.

I can configure my router to work with my phone, but the main problem is we can't control/configure those public router setting @ public place, or others WIfi router, let say @ ur friends house, do we? So the root cause is phone itself, that's why i'm asking question here. But seems many forumers will ask us to configure the router rather than solve the problem in phone.

I hope u get what i mean.

Anyway, tried the wifi modules in stock kernel, still same, and Lupus kernel already have built in wifi modules.

Thanks.

The problem seems to be in the router according to the above link. I suggest you to download a fresh ftf file from here - http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/35239?tstart=0

I can confirm that the wifi works in the ftf of the above link. Try updating your router firmware. This may also be a baseband problem. Try this baseband if your problem is not solved - http://uploaded.net/folder/um2ivw
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] coolkwc:
Tonight i just come back from 2 cafe, both of them using WPA security, failed to connect to them at all, all same problem, authenticating then can't find IP address and non stop looping. So if the root cause is the router, means the router in whole world also got problem, i don think so.

Regarding the ftf file u suggested, i did download from there yesterday i do a clean install by flashtool (wipe data), can't solve also.

Sometimes i'm curious. As I said GB rom no problem, problem only arise on ICS ROM, why ppl still saying is router problem? The sonymobile link is just useless, as their 'official' statement of course will not blame is their own problem. My gf with the same phone with me with GB rom can connect to all routers that with security enabled, so how to explain is router problem rather than ROM itself??
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] coolkwc:
Today just tried downgrade to GB, then update to ICS 4.0.4 with exclude baseband, still the problem remained. Seems like really can't solve anymore. Stock ICS 4.0.4 baseband is ver.77, now i'm using GB stock 2.3.4 baseband ver.56. Flashed to 70, 42 also same.:(
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] singh_dd93:
If you are using LuPuS stock kernel then you need to flash the wifi modules.

Mesa and Panic did not reqiure it. Mesa has modules integrated into ramdisk while panic uses stock modules.

Krsh Kernel also requires wifi modules for wifi to eork properly.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sim590:
I'm presently trying to get arch linux wroking on my transformer tf101. I'm taking advice from the thread at "archlinuxarm.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=4670", but there's something diffrent in my approach: I'm trying to boot arch from the SD card on the keyboard (not the micro SD card).

You can read the posts on the linked thread in order to know all I've been through.

I use linux3.1.10.img file containing zImage (linux kernel), initrd.img and bootimg.cfg (which helps me specify where's the OS to boot, here it's root=/dev/sda1 for the sdcard on the keyboard). After having made my modifications to the files, I update the linux3.1.10.img file and blobpack on LNX partition ready for flashing through CWM.

The flashable file actually flashes from CWM and something appears on the screen when it reboots, but it stops with errors. The problem seems to be that the SD card is not readable at the moment initrd does it's job (it's related to the fact that I use the SD card on the keyboard). Here's what it looks like:

Initramfs unpacking failed: LZMA data is corrupt
upli_phy_power_on: timeout waiting for phy to stabilize
upli_phy_power_on: upli write failed
tegra-ehci tegra-egci.1: Failed to power on the phy
g_ether gadget: rndis: can't bind, err 0
mxt_config_settings
power_supply dock_battery: driver failed to report `status' proterty
power_supply dock_battery: driver failed to report `status' proterty

Tegra protected aperture disabled because nvmap is using system memory
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)

CPU1: stopping
unwind: Unknown symbol address c0008364
unwind: Index not found c0008364
Light sensor: a13000a_interrupt_handler

So I need to modify the initrd.img in order to have the sdcard reachable (I guess), but I don't know what modification to do. May be someone could help?

- archlinuxarm.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=4670

- xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1537566

I'VE ATTACHED THE IMAGE I USE FOR FLASHING (NOT BLOBPACKed YET)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lethe6:
"Initramfs unpacking failed: LZMA data is corrupt" would be a good place to start. If the initramfs fails to run then the kernel is missing a bunch of stuff for the boot process, so things will fail, like mounting the root filesystem.

Did you check this out? Someone seems to suggest a change in initramfs.conf...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sim590:
I've red the post and checked my initramfs.conf file and it was already set to COMPRESS=gzip.

Anyway, I don't think it's related because the guy on the thread I linked above succeeds with the same image file. The only differences are :

- He uses the micro SD card rather than the SD card in the keyboard

- The configuration file bootimg.cfg is set with root=/dev/mmcblk1p1 (micro sd card) rather than root=/dev/sda1 (SD card on the keyboard)

So, as Gary (the owner of the thread on archlinux-arm Forums) said, I should make a change related to the search of devices made by init script(?), in order to have detected the right device before going into initramfs job.

EDIT

The problem seems to be elsewhere because I've just tried with micro SD card and I had the same error messages! My guess would be that the blob file may not be flashed completely and that's why I would get the LZMA archive corrutpion error. Or it may be something else, I don't know.. I'm pretty lost....

Hello, I haven’t read all the linked threads you posted but I remember I tried to install Arch on my TF101G as well once, but using a chroot method. I haven’t got too far though and for a lack of support I gave up =S

Thing is, I’d love to see Arch on my tablet as well, since it is my main (only) system on my pcs. Can you try installing TWRP as recovery, I’ve been using it for about a month now and it seems a lot more trustful and maybe it will be able to help you a little bit more. Also, aren’t the devices on /dev/block/sda1? I remember it being like this on mine, but maybe my current rom put it that way.

I’m subscribing here and will be reading the other threads to try it out myself. Just, what do you mean by sbkv2?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sim590:
I've just finished installed ubuntu on my tf101. I needed something to let me work while I ship my laptop to ASUS for repair. I won't be messing with my sd card that got ubuntu installed on it. But, if I get a micro sd card to play with, I'll give it a try (I can't promess I'd be doing this soon)

From CWM and Android point of view, devices are, in fact, located as you said. But, from linux distros point of view they are rather disposed like I said (/dev/sda1). So when you want to tell a linux distro to look for files, you use this "/dev/sda1" rather than this "/dev/block/sda1". That's what I understood after playing with this.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sim590:
All I know is that there are two types of transformer tf101: SBKv1 and SBKv2. I think ASUS has made some changes in order to prevent people messing with roms (which is what we're doing) but I think people have worked their way around this issue and it's not of concern anymore..
