Help with latest CM7 update

Hey having some problems with last update of CM7...or more specifically getting a recovery reboot after modifying baseband files for my location.

I am either back to the M logo screen on reboot, or bootloader message with a power + up arrow start.

From stock Eclair loading CM7 RC version 5 :v0.7.4....this all seems to go OK.

Loading following apps (also work ok..)

Universal androot

Flipout Recovery

Andexplorer

CM7 appears to work fine apart from not finding carrier (Telecom XT in NZ)

So...

Copied bp_nvm_default files from Eclair (that were working ok) to sd card (before loading CM7)

Ran through osk386's post regarding changing bp_nvm_default files...just used terminal in CM7 to do the following:

su (#prompt)

mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock7 /system

cp /sdcard/bp_nvm_default/* /system/etc/motorola/bp_nvm_default

chmod 0644 /system/etc/motorola/bp_nvm_default/*

exit

Then using andexplorer confirmed that /system/etc/motorola/bp_nvm_default files had been modified to original working Eclair files.

Then using Flipout recovery rebooted in recovery mode

Wiped data/factory restore (all fine up to this point.......)

Then on Reboot System....locked into M logo screen. Can only switch off by removing the battery. On re-start...same M logo loop. Only thing I seem to be able to do is force into Bootloader screen with a power + up arrow start up. From there my only option seems to be to re-flash with original .sbf file.....and back to square one. It seems to me to be a problem getting rebooted, rather than altering the bp_nvm_default files.

Just when I was starting to enjoy CM7's benefits...:( Help please!

Replace bp_nvm files with a root file manger from market,or use 7zip on your computer before you flash 7.4
[Flipout and Charm General] RichardBurr:
own tesslym

Dont think you have understood. The bp_nvm_default files were updated fine. Confirmed that the changes, and permissions were correct prior to re-booting. It's the re-booting process that hangs for me. I assume that the updated bp_nvm files will not be applied until 7.4 is recovery rebooted.

This is where I everything hangs at the M logo. At this point all I am able to do is to get the bootloader menu and re-flash the original .sbf file.

Still in need of help please.
[Flipout and Charm General] RichardBurr:
Still no help with reboot

Hey, has this thread died or something?

Still in need of help regarding getting Flipout to reboot after bp_nvm_default file changes. After these changes have been made, rebooting gets stuck on either M logo, or we are back to bootloader menu...and starting by re-flashing sbf files. No point in CM if its not usable, or anybody willing to help.
[Flipout and Charm General] moodroid:
I think the reason no one can help, is because they never had this problem. I've installed v0.7.4 and this didn't happen to me.

Have you tried doing the entire process again, i.e. going back to your stock ROM then installing? And did it still happen?

I made myself a set of instructions to follow (below) and this worked for me:

To return to stock ROM:

- start up RSD Lite and select .sbf file:

RUTEM_U3_01.14.2_DEBLUR_SIGNED_USARUTH15ND0RTINT054.0R_PDS000_USARUTHECEEEMARA_P017_A016_HWp3_1FF.sbf

- power down phone

- hold the up button on the d-pad and press power on for 4 seconds

- connect phone to computer

- press start in RSD Lite and wait until complete

To upgrade to custom ROM:

- back up baseband files from terminal emulator:

su

mkdir /sdcard/bp_nvm_default

cp /system/etc/motorola/bp_nvm_default/* /sdcard/bp_nvm_default

- install and run universalandroot.apk

- install bootstrap.apk then do option 1 followed by option 2

- wipe data/factory reset

- wipe cache

- mounts and storage -> mount /system

- install zip from sdcard -> choose zip from sdcard

- reboot system now

- restore baseband files from terminal emulator:

su

mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock7 /system

cp /sdcard/bp_nvm_default/* /system/etc/motorola/bp_nvm_default

chmod 0644 /system/etc/motorola/bp_nvm_default/*

reboot into recovery mode -> wipe data/factory -> reboot system now

[2013/11/13]:

last update (2013-11-13.zip in OP):

Seems we can use the command of telnetd to do emergency rescue.

I write telnetd as shell script. It's only to execute bootmenu, if someone modify mot_boot_mode maybe cause bootmenu can't execute.

The telnetd will execute by eclair's init_mapphone30_umts.rc. But it's only can use bootmenu to execute adb to do some things (ex. modify mot_boot_mode).

These days, I try using 2ndboot, but still freeze on hbootmod, I don't know why we can't execute hbootmod.

I can't find anything solution, and can't get more message.

For me, it's hard to debug, I'm not kernel developer. I try to understand the source code of hbootmod, should stuck on do_branch.

But I still can't get any idea to solve this question.

Hope someone can complete it, let we can use new kernel.

RC version 5 should can be a stable version.
[Flipout and Charm General] moodroid:
Thanks for all that you've done phchshow. I never thought we'd see CM7 on this device, but you did it. 0.7.0 was perfectly usable for me and should have probably been called 1.0.0. Everything after that was a bonus.

Reboot issues

So I'm still a bit miffed at this reboot issue???? And why just me?
[Flipout and Charm General] landry314:
You need to "remount /system" for gapps to install!

i got the gapps for CM7 from here:

wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps

get the gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip file! it works.

when i held the power key and the reboot menu came up then i booted into recovery and installed the gapps zip file from my sdcard. it looked like it worked but it didnt do anything...

so i tried again and this time i went to remount /system in the recovery program first then i installed the file off the sdcard and it worked!

i cant believe i am using cyanogenmod 7 on my flipout!

thanks a lot!
[Flipout and Charm General] RichardBurr:
Wondering if the bootloader is the issue..currently have (from RSD lite):

Software Version: RUTEM_U3_01.14.2EPU93_U_02.36.00

Flex Version: USARUTH15ND0RTINT054.0R

Bootloader Version: 9110

DRM Version: N/A

Its the process of re-booting that hangs up on the Motorola Logo. Occasionally can get my way into the (blue) recovery menu at reboot...giving me options of

reboot

update from update zip

delete data

delete cache

(thats all from that menu)

:(

[Flipout and Charm General] mcmaxim:
To the author: I'm totally amazed I must say. I never thought I will see GB or CM7 on my MB511.

Few months back I drowned the one I had for 2 years in a bucket of water and then because I liked it so much and didn't like any of the new phones (I really need a physical keyboard) I bought a brand new MB511. The thing is at some point I got pissed by more and more apps not getting upgrades and/or stop working because my system was too old and then - voila! I've discovered cm7 ported to MB511! Wow, not this is THE smartphone :D

Now, the only problem I have after using the port for like a week now is the touch screen rotation. When it switched to the portrait mode - about 1/4 of the screen - the bottom part - becomes dead. What's actually surprising, because I have my status bar moved to the bottom - it works perfectly well, including opening notifications window. But anything above it is dead for about 25% of the screen.

Anyone had such issues?

Just to make clear: the same issue, when status bar is at the top and at the bottom - checked. The screen itself is ok, because it works perfectly well in landscape mode (just to make it additionaly clear: I mean landscape mode is when home, menu and back buttons are at the bottom, because screen here is rather that of TV proportions, not portrait proportions ;) )

Anyone had similar problem? And if so - how to solve?

YES THAT WILL WORK.

but i dont get a signal. i dont think you can actually use it as a phone or text messager... ridiculous.
[Flipout and Charm General] moodroid:
I get a signal and phone/text works fine. Did you copy your old baseband file before installing then copy then back after? If not, then that's probably the problem. If you read through this thread there's loads of info about baseband files.
[Flipout and Charm General] tutur:
YES! It works! It's the first time I've installed a CyanogenMod, and definitively not the last one!

Signal, Phone and Text are working!

too late for baseband files?

well, i searched this entire thread for the word "baseband" and found a few posts but nothing that explained what to do. also, i have already wiped my phone and installed cyanogenmod so the baseband files are long gone. am i screwed? how were we to know we were suppose to back them up? it says nothing in the first post. how did people figure this out?

does anyone have flipout at&t usa baseband files for me? that was the original but i have been using it unlocked on t-mobile.

any suggestions? i have a useless phone now! :(
[Flipout and Charm General] moodroid:
Hi,

I posted some details on what I did here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=47409826&postcount=262

Basically, when you're still on your stock rom, then do the following in a terminal emulator:

su

mkdir /sdcard/bp_nvm_default

cp /system/etc/motorola/bp_nvm_default/* /sdcard/bp_nvm_default

And then when you're on phchshow's rom, then do the following in a terminal emulator:

su

mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock7 /system

cp /sdcard/bp_nvm_default/* /system/etc/motorola/bp_nvm_default

chmod 0644 /system/etc/motorola/bp_nvm_default/*

reboot into recovery mode -> wipe data/factory -> reboot system now

You could always just flash the stock rom in RSD Lite couldn't you, and start again?

But like you say, it'd be much easier if someone could give you the baseband files. I'm in the UK though, so can't help, sorry.

Or as suggested here...

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=47566374&postcount=269

...you could try changing the baseband files in the zip file.

No Signal

Hi, i just installed the ROM, everything works fine but i have no signal.

I backed up the /system/etc/motorola/bp_nvm_default/* folder and copied to \system\etc\motorola\bp_nvm_default in the zip before updating.

I tried also copying the files through the terminal emulator after updating but also doesn't works.

Any ideas?
[Flipout and Charm General] moodroid:
I've never tried changing the baseband files in the zip file myself, but I know when you copy them via the terminal emulator you need to do...

reboot into recovery mode -> wipe data/factory -> reboot system now

...afterwards. You could give that a go if you haven't already.

Hi, super newbie here, i tried to read all the post but i kinda got lost. (apologize!)

- i didn't understand which's the latest CM rom available for the flipout: is that one i quoted above or the one on the first page?

and in general: is there a rom that allows me to upgrade the phone to android 2.2 or more and is stable, and obviously permit to phone, send text and read email/twitter/facebook?

(am i asking a lot from life?)

the one i quoted in the first quote seems to work? right?

the one on the first page says that the phone has problem in calls and other thing

i read the istructions, i read the baseband thing, so i'm kinda ready to try, i just a little lost on witch rom to use.

and a small question: is motoblur affecting the battery life on the original rom? or it does "problem" just regarding memory and velocity of the phone?

tnks for the patience

Finally updated my flipout to CM7!!!

Finally updated my flipout to CM7, phone is completely usable with this ROM.

Many thanks to phchshow for making this ROM workable in flipout!!

Thanks moodroid for providing the instructions/steps for installing the ROM!!

Just to share below information which will be helpful for others who wants to upgrade this ROM.

1. Network Issue:- (No sound while calling)

First i taken backup of my stock ROM baseband files and replaced after installing CM7 but it didn't worked but later again i flashed this stock ROM (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=845912) and taken the backup of baseband files and replaced after installing CM7 this time it got worked.

Solution:-

So it looks like Original Stock baseband files is not working with CM7 but the baseband files from original firmware simfree ROM is working with CM7.

2. How to disable Proximity sensor in CM7 (helpful when proximity sensor not working)

Since proximity sensor is not working in my flipout but i didn't faced any problem while using stock ROM even though proximity sensor was not working but after upgrading to CM7, screen will go blank while receiving calls and reacts only after active call ends and by opening the keypad.

Solution:-

Thanks to UksusoFF for fixing this issue reference:- http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=925814&page=3

Just updated the userinit.sh file to map flipout proximity sensor.

Steps:-

1) Put the below file (unzip first!) to /data/local/

2) Go to Settings - CyanogenMod Settings - Input - Check on "Volume rocker wake".

3) Reboot the phone. And now, after call screen will be wake up by pressing volume up/down and\or power button.

I would say this ROM is just for Experimental use, if you really use the Flipout primary, stay on 2.1 Eclair! ;)

Hi,

I've just installed this following ShockBuddy's guide and it's amazing. Thank you so much phchshow - you're a genius!

To me, everything seems to be working except for 2 things (which have previously been mentioned):

1) Phone calls - I've called myself from my landline, and I don't seem to be able to hear anything the caller says, and the caller doesn't seem to be able to hear anything I say.

2) When I flip out the keyboard, it always switches to portrait mode (the opposite of what you want) even if you disable rotation.

I've now gone back to 2.1, as I need phone calls to work, but once those 2 things have been fixed, I will definitely be using this!
