Aww

Sounds like the md5 file is read only change to read write. You should make your own using the instructions it doesnt hurt anything its to just make sure the data isnt corrupted. You dont want to flash a corrupted file no telling the damage it would do. Should be an md5sum on the page you downloaded from compare your downloaded zip md5 to that to be sure and just make a new md5. Btw you can use a terminal emulator and run the commands on your phone also. You cant use different nandroid.md5 files has to be the one that came with it or need to make another.

UPDATE

UPDATED TO 4.0:fingers-crossed:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Chadw1985:
Thanks is appreciation enough. I just enjoy modding and am more than glad to help.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] stuartmc:
I hate to be a pain guys, but I'm still having issues. I finally got Timthenoobs program to run and a new .md5 file was created in my platform-tools folder on my PC. So, I replaced the one in my sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/(file) with the new one that was created, right? Well, I still got a an . .md5 mismatch notice when I tried doing the CWM restore! Am I a complete idiot and doing something wrong?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Chadw1985:
are you trying to do a full restore or selecting advanced restore then restore system?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mikey199:
No! Navigate to folder in backup in adb then

rm nandroid.md5

md5sum *img > nandroid.md5

That's it dude your done. If you get denied type "su" then run commands.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] reyradi:
He is doing something wrong
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] reyradi:
All day batt thats great
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] stuartmc:
For other noobs who might be having trouble with this, I will post my solution to the problem. First off, the folder you put your backup in can't have any spaces in the name. That will cause errors right off. Secondly, when trying to run the script to create a new nandroid.md5 file, one must be careful to have the correct path. My phones path did not quite match the instructions and using the "LS" command gave me the list of all the sub directories and files in each step as I was drilling down to where my backup file was. Lastly, I kept getting an error that no md5sum could be found. Hmmmm? I learned that md5sum is a program that comes with busybox and wondered if my little rooting job did not install it properly. Not knowing for sure, I used a busybox installer program from the market and put it in my /system/bin file. Still no luck...so then I found that I had to use the following command - "busybox md5sum *img > nandroid.md5." Oh, yes I also had to go to Super user status by entering "su" and having the adb shell prompt switch from $ to #. Now FINALLY all is right with the world. I just spent the better part of a day on this, but I have learned a crap load about CWM and adb. Thanks for your patience guys....I do appreciate the help and pointers

(Preinstalled) Secret code app

I wanted to explain a little about the secret codes app I included in Update 4.0.

You can change many things about your phone with this. Network preference, tethering capability, which LTE bands to run on and many others.

I have included screenshots of some of the menus.

Open the app and search for codes

Then go into the your codes list

First code to run is for the tethering (softapactivation)

Select first two options in this menu to enable wifi tether

Second code to run is for debug network mode (32463738)

select Debug mode ON to be able to change network settings.

Third code to run is for system debug menu (324)

Has many options. Main ones to use are:(Network Mode)(LTE Band Lock)(Network Selection)

Other codes do other things. Just be careful using codes.

YOU COULD BRICK YOUR PHONE OR DO A DATA RESET

All options change your system settings in settings.db without having to flash a .zip with CWM and changes stay after reboot:D

This app is very useful. I will post more about the menus as I play around with them.

Who tested chad's 4.0 update?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mikey199:
I have runs great. Volume loudness is almost to much. Be careful not to blow out your speakers. Battery life isn't great but i have a file you can replace that doubled my battery life. I sent it to Chad for the next update. He said the next one is close. I will post the file next.

---------- Post added at 11:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:23 PM ----------

Here is init.qcom.post_boot.sh http://db.tt/k8fj5Z3S

Been running this for days makes the battery run alot better and no performance sacrifice. Just unzip move file to /system/etc backup your original first just to be safe just rename it and add..Bak to the end of the original file. Make sure permissions are right. Should be rw-r-r. Reboot and you should be good to go.

Looking good so far!

Well, after softbricking my flex, I came back here, followed instructions somewhat with a few diferent steps and just got my Flex up and running on this ROM. THANKS TO ALL YOU GUYS FOR YOUR TIME AND PATIENTS WITH THE DEVELOPEMENT! Will be glad to help after testing this baby out in any way possible. I posted some of the similar but diferent steps I went through in the CWM forum where I initially started . Thanks again and looking forward to eventually reaching the CM 10.1 stage for our fairly new dual core beast! :D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] reyradi:
Follow your instructions mike and installed chads update 4... well is fassssst as speed of light super clean...but I feel the phone little hot...

Ehhh one more time chad. Could you include in next update the 2G mode option.. thanks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mikey199:
Mine gets hot to when using it for awhile especially games. It's all that power inside. My flex doesn't get nearly as hot as my pantech burst did. That thing nearly burns you putting it in your pocket after using it. You could set your max cpu speed to 1ghz instead of 1.5ghz shouldn't get as hot and better battery life. But you give up speed for it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Chadw1985:
The main reason it gets hot is cause the back panel is metal. It absorbs the heat from the phone. and I the 2g option i dont know what changed it. Might be cause I changed network in build.prop.

UPDATE 4.1 coming tomorrow
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Darian71:
Initial findings on your incredibly smooth Rom was that there was no email app. No biggee, I downloaded one from the market. I too noticed battery life isn't as good as stock. And my lockscreen slide apps don't work. Other than that, I find it ABSOLUTELY FANTASTICAL that the very first ROM to be built for our Flex has these very minor bugs. GREAT JOB! Tried downloading the battery fix but the link isn't working anymore so I'll just wait on 4.1. I'm assuming it will install just like the 4.0. :)

Edit: only messaging and email apps on lockscreen won't work. Phone, Camera and unlock work. My bad
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] reyradi:
In stock rom there was a hide network settings and you can change to 2g-4g as your wish for me that help my batt when the phone is deep sleep or im not using the browser... Was cool that we have that option again
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] stuartmc:
Running Chad's 4.0 with Mikey's init.qcom file and I'm getting good speed, smooth as butter and very good battery life. Very good stuff indeed gentlemen.

This may be totally unrelated to the rom, but I was wondering if anyone else was having trouble playing embedded Youtube movies. The Youtube app works fine when I play movies there, but when I get embedded youtube movies on facebook, they play sound and only an extremely thin (as in about three pixels wide) band of video.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mikey199:
Yes just noticed it earlier today actually. I'm going to look into it. I'm guessing Chad replaced the stock browser with ics browser maybe?? Try a different browser. Will post back when I figured more out.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] stuartmc:
FYI, the problem seems to be independent of the browser used. The same problem arises with the stock browser and also when I use the Dolphin browser.

as this is the most active posts and many are still mailing me asking for help with things regarding the flex i would like to just state that i have given my flex to my grandma for mothers day the easy mode really suits well for her and i thought it would be a nice gesture to replace their razr from 2006 also upgrading to a galaxy S 4 wasnt so bad either lol i will still actively be helping anyone who needs anything regarding the development of this phone and have not turned my back on it ive watched the community grow from me and a couple of guys trying to achieve root to seeing custom roms spring up :) and i gotta say im proud to have been part of something so great SO DEV ON! TEAM FLEX
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mikey199:
Sorry to see you go. Thank you for the help you have given the community. Seems like everyone's leaving. I'm going to keep working on this phone i just updated my Rom (CFIR) but I'm a beginner. Just wish we had more experienced devs.

chadw is an awesome dev work with him and donovan from the original linux root thread and noob4droid from cwm put your heads together you guys can do it lol trust me thats all that we started with just all of us guys putting our heads together and problem solving with diffrent ideas we were able to combine them to form a sulotioun
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Darian71:
Well guys, I seriously Hard Bricked my Flex. Like a dummy, I seen a Cm 10 FLEX Rom on XDA while browsing the other day so I of course quickly downloaded it and to my surprise, CWM installed the zip with no issues whatsoever! After the full installation, which was very pretty and unlike any CM Rom I'd ever seen, I hit reboot recovery just to see what version of CWM I might have gotten. That's when I realized I messed up. It said, WELCOME TO YOUR NEW TABLET...... then shut off and hasn't came back on since. No boot loop, no lights, nothing. My computer does however recognize it as USHUSB_DLOAD, Which after much research and trying numerous commands in both ADB terminal and Ubuntu with PblClear, nothing. Sooooo, until I can dig up a program that will resurrect her, or possibly have to disassemble it, and do some soldering which was suggested on one post, she's toast. It was also suggested I could probably get another flex and dump the bootloaders etc for a copy to write to the phone but being a noob I don't know how to do all that. If any of you guys hear of a one click or something please share. Otherwise thanks for all the hard work on our Flex. She WAS really fast. Lol
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] donavan01:
Maybe I missed something along the way, been away from the scene for a few months after I got root working, but if you flashed the CM10 why can't you just flash this ROM over the the CM10 install. CWM should not be affected by the ROM you are running at least as I understand how CWM works. I am still behind the times on this one my phone is only rooted at this point (can't risk a bricked phone right now with the wife in the hospital).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Darian71:
Well, you are correct about just simply flashing my backup over it problem is, the phone won't even come on now. And I can't get ADB or Ubuntu to flash or install it either because it can't find the device. I can kill the server and restart it with both those programs but that's it. I even used a heimdall (samsung) unsoftbrick tool that actually installed WinUsb drivers on the phone successfully but still no powering it on or flashing.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] reyradi:
What's happened with the progress of the Rom??? Where's chad?? We need you bro :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mikey199:
You can check out my Rom which is based on Chadw1985s rom he helped me with it . http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2254711 theirs a bug fix i will be uploading the version 4 tonite i have to check a few things first.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] donavan01:
Have you tried using the Linux Root method for the drivers I created, it may give you the drivers you need to install the ROM?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Darian71:
No sir. Never occurred to me. I'll look it up and give it a whirl! Thanks! I I actually bought SRS root awhile back and it rooted the phone for me.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Darian71:
Well, I successfully installed ADB on Ubuntu and upgraded it. But still not recognizing my device. Not sure how the zadig program does it, but it says it successfully installs updated drivers to the phone on windows but windows still recognizes it as USHUSB_DLOAD device. Ubuntu doesn't even show that. Only thing I can figure is the drivers for the Flex aren't available yet or I just don't know how to extract and install them. Can however kill and start daemon, but that's it. So apparently Ubuntu is making a connection with the phone.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] atadres:
sorry to be the bearer of bad news i made the same mistake as you i flashed cm10 from the burst rom i think our cwm recovery installs everything and anything which is both good and bad lol but i hard bricked just like you the problem here is that you will not be able to acccess ur phone through adb because the phone does not boot therfore usb debugging mode does not activate rendering your ADB shell USELESS on your bricked phone what it is detecting is ur bricked devices broken kernel i wish u the best of luck in my experiance i had no choice but to use insurance
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Darian71:
Ahhh, sounds logical to me. I bought the phone second hand so insurance is not an option for me. Lol. I'll keep searching for a program that might be able to flash the kernel back. But without it being in download mode I'm not even sure if an Odin type program would even work. It's odd though how the Zadig program "says" the it successfully installed drivers on it. Oh well, thanks for the news. If I ever get it working I'll be sure and post it! :confused:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] atadres:
unfourtunatly pan tech is not as kind as samsung and does not offer. Us an Odin type program they do have their own program but its impossible to find as it is for their company use only stick with Sammy's even if they locked the s4 boot loader they made it extremely easy to bypass
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] reyradi:
No more Updates?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] luismrosa:
how i install it i mean i just have the stock recovery no cwm can i flash it via "apply update from adb" from the stock recovery
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mikey199:
Doesnt work. No one has figured out how to get jellybean on it yet without using att system update.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] atadres:
no way you can do it u must be rooted and have CWM ON ICS no JB seems no ones updating this anymore i think development for flex is gone
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Darian71:
I truly hope not. My Flex is still in QHUSB_DLOAD MODE with no possible solution in sight:banghead:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Darian71:
Just wondering if anyone has managed to extract a debricking. Img from a working Flex yet? Should be in the neighborhood of around 130MB. Only reason I ask is because I have done the same QHUSB_DLOAD thing on my GS3 but was able to get it booted back to the download menu by writing the image someone provided in the GS3 harbricked forum fixed with SD card.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bartholomey:
Hy all,

I'm running JB Sourcery V5.1 (latest) and I had some trouble wih the speed.

The ROM comes with it's own kernel, it allows me to overclock my GNex to 1.4 GHz top (screen attached).

I ran a Benchmark and poor results. See from the screen, the results are lower than what a Gnex should be !

I tried to flash Franco Kernel but the device won't reboot, it stays on "Google" and never starts the bootanimation (i had to do a wipe to make it boot).

So if you are on JBSourcery, is there a way to overclock it more than 1.4 GHz ?

Why does the Franco Kernel block the boot ?

Not every Kernel can be flashed on every ROM ?

Thanks for the answers like always !
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bartholomey:
I managed to make the franco kernel work.

There's a section in the JBSourcery tools dedicated to kernels. This ROM is amazing really.

Anyway, thanks i guess ^^
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FuelFlo:
As you can see in the Quadrant screenshot, the I/O Performance probably is the problem. Wich I/O scheduler do you use?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bartholomey:
I'll check the scheduler settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bartholomey:
Hy,

The settings are :

Read ahead buffer size : 1024

Scheduler : deadline

I never touched these so I don't really know what there here for ...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cilraaz:
You base your performance based on a number spit out from Quadrant...

Here's a novel thought: How does it actually work for you? Are you having problems with it lagging during certain operations?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FuelFlo:
Yea, Cilrazz is right. If your system is smooth you shouldn't care about the Quadrant results at all.

To answer your other questions:

a) You can

not

use every Kernel with every ROM, there migth be some incompatibilities.

b) If you want to overclock more than 1.4GHz, you'll need another ROM, wich allows that. But you probably won't need that for smoothness or performance during standard use. In fact a lot of people have underclocked their CPU's to 10.6GHz and the GNex is still more than fast enough for everyday use, while saving a lot of battery with this lower voltage.

c) concerning the I/O sheduler. wich schedulers do you have available, maybe another than deadline does work better for you (personaly 'fiops' works best for me) ...ah and I'm pretty sure, you should set the read ahead buffer size to aprox. 2048 for better performance.

d) I don't know whats your exact problem with the franco Kernel. Have you tried a clean flash? (means: wipe cache+dalvik, factory reset, format system, install ROM, kernel, GApps, wipe cache+dalvik) -- ! make a backup first, you will loose your settings, when resetting to factory and loose your app and app data on format system !

Ah and i'm pretty new here too, so be carefull not everything i'm saying is 100% right. :fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bartholomey:
The benchmark results were only here to show the lack of speed that i had. But i really had speed trouble and i couldnt screen that ^^

But now it's all good. Thanks for the answer tho'

Hey,

Thanks for the big answer mate.

I'll try to answer step by step :)

B/ I did manage to flash the Franco kernel but using the download kernel feature in the settings (maybe a special version). The over clocking is for the gaming actually like Modern Combat, but the device becomes hot as the sun ! (Not good).

C/ I never touched the I/O zone. It works pretty fine this way so I won't mess with that ^^

Thanks for the answer tho'. Very much appreciated! :)
