Is there any way to get the Jellybean AOSP Browser on Sense?

I'm talking about this one.

So I extracted the Browser.apk from two AOSP ROMS, first ParanoidAndroid and second CM, when I move the APK to my One X, it'll just say Parsing Error when trying to install it, and when moving it to system/app and modifying the permissions it won't show up or anything.

Could anyone help me out?

Firstly, the browser in the screenshot is chrome.

Secondly, use search.

Personally I think this one should get the sticky as it is so oftenly run into by new upgraders!

And not just because I came up with the menu function still working even with the 1% error death bit... 8)

And thanks, Matt for noting that. My instructions were given both from learning on here what to do (the RSU upgrade copying bit) and figuring out how to get past that damn 1% error bit when I forgot to copy one file over of the 4. :oops:
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] MrDollyMaker:
Something I found after testing out this method last night several times by causing a bad RSU install and getting the 1% screen of death....

As long as the ROM installed fine, don't re-install a new rom. Simply when you get the 1% error, go to the menu and get in to your

file manager

.

From there go to your

Start

folder inside the

Windows

folder. From there find the link to the RSUpgrade file and delete it. (Don't worry about deleting a file, this is just a link to it and we will re-install a good copy of this file)

Now, restart your PDA. It should return to your normal desktop but with no phone connection as the Radio Stack is not installed. From here, place it back on it's cradle/usb connection.

Just as stated above by Matt, you need a copy of the RSUpgade installation or a ROM upgrade insallation that includes the RSUpgrade. Unpack this, I used

Winzip

to do this. Find these files:

monitor_ul_bs.m0

monitor_ul_bs.map

RSUpgrade.cp64

RSUPgrade.exe

Now, using

Activesync

, explore to your

Windows

folder on your XDA and copy those files from your Computer to there. They must over write all the old files.

Disconnect from your PC and run the RSUPgrade.exe file from file manager. It worked 10 for 10 when I did it this way so it should work for you also.

The key is like Matt stated to remove the RSUPgrade.lnk file from the Start folder in Windows when you get the 1% death screen than manually copy these 4 files over. What I found was happening when you did the upgrade and got that 1% error, one or more of those 4 files corrupted or were not copied to your device. Once it has upgraded the rom, it seems to delete these files automatically also.

Goodluck and thanks for posting all of your experiance Matt. I'm quite sure it will help others A Lot!

I only have two things to add:

1. RSUpgrade _fails_ much more often without SIM card inside the phone;

2. Your battery should be fully charged (100%) before you start the upgrade, since if it does fail, the battery will stop charging, and the next time you attempt to upgrade, you may not be able to get past 1%, even if you have power adapter plugged in. If you happen to have another XDA, you could swap batteries, or use an extended battery, if you have one.

Good luck...
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] MrDollyMaker:
:shock:

I never do the RSUpgrade with a sim in my phone.... Never failed unless I tried to do it with the EXE thing. But I do agree to make sure you have a full battery, but since it already is at the 1% error, you can charge it with the charger if you do not do anything when the error comes up. just let it sit and charge.

MrDollyMaker
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] lbazil:
Strange, because at some point I've had consistent failures at 13%, 16% or 21% until I put the SIM card in. Then it worked twice in a row. Maybe just a coincidence.

Also, are you sure the battery charges when the error message is up? The led stays off, and after a while the phone won't even turn on without external power.

Hmmm, every time I plugged it in or sat it on the cradle(USB power modified as listed in this website) the LED turned yellow...

But as for the SIM, yeah, that needs to be in. I was thinking SD card. :oops: I never leave my SD card in but as for the SIM, that I never take out.

I have same 1% flash error but no succes

Thank you guys for your effort.

I have followed all the instructions step by step and I still cannot flash the radio part. It's hanging at the 1% even the files required for flash are in the windows device folder.

I have tryed to charge the baterry from the special connector on the back cause it seems not charhing trough the normal connector but I am not sure how long and what should ne the final voltage.

Please advice what should I have to do before I declare my XDA a normal pocket PC( radio part is not working )

Thanks

:cry: I am now in the same boat. I tried every step as per the instruction in this forum, but had no luck at all.'It seemed I also had more problems as I tried to flash the ROM and always got an ERROR message saying that the system could not determine the data connectivity type (this messsage was in the DOS black screen, wheneever you run the Programme A/ xdatools). However, I could back up the device and the Active sync seemed to be working fine ...

I hope someone could help us ...thanks a lot in advance..

cheers...
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] MrDollyMaker:
Re: I have same 1% flash error but no succes

Ok, first thing you need to do is turn your unit on and let the 1% screen of death come on than stop and do not do anything!

Next click in the upper left corner where the menu comes down. It will still drop down. Find your File Explorer program and launch it.

Now, browse over the the

Startup

folder located in your

Windows

folder. Inside the startup folder you should find some file refering to install or upgrade like "RSUgrade.lnk" or something like that.

DELETE IT

. Now let your unit reboot.

Now it should return to your normal desktop. go in and find those 4 files that caused all this hell and delete them. They are as follows:

monitor_ul_bs.m0

monitor_ul_bs.map

RSUpgrade.cp64

RSUpgrade.exe

Now that you have deleted those files, just to make sure they are cleared from memory restart the unit again.

Download a good copy of a radiostack that works with your location from yorch.net. If you wish to get the latest one, I would suggest that unless you are with T-Mobile, stay clear of it. You can also extract these 4 files from an upgrade patch file from your provider using WinZip.

Once you have a good copy of those 4 files copy them directly from your PC to your unit through active sink and into your Windows directory.

Restart your unit to clear any programs out, plug the unit in to your ac charger (not the cradle and not connected to your pc) than using File Explorer locate RSUpgrade.exe and run it. This will restart you unit but should have no problems upgrading your unit.

If you prefer, after you get it back to desktop, stop and charge it than copy the files over.

Safest way to upgrade the ROM is using the SD card method. It is more reliable and doesn't get Errors caused by activesync.

MrDollyMaker
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] andhy:
MrDollyMaker:

SD method has not worked for me so far... :cry:

I am not able to patch 5.17 nor downgrade to 5.15.

I used xdarit and osimagetool to write to the SD card without any luck.

Could please share some light in this matter?

Cheers...
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] MrDollyMaker:
Have you tried using the OS Image Tool to write directly to the ROM?

Also, when you used XDArit, did you select that it was 5.16+ image you were writing? (when you used/didn't use the patch)

MrDollyMaker
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] andhy:
MrDollyMaker:

Thanks again.

Yes, I selected the 5.15 ROM image to write to the SD card.

The OSImage file only accepted nb1/ nbf file types. I was not able to write the wallaby patch tool nb2 file nor wallaby 5.15 ROM image nb0 file through Osimagetool.

As you might remember, I always got an ERROR message about activesync connection whenever I tried to flash directly to the device ROM.

The first step I believed is to patch the 5.17 then either downgrade to 5.15 or go straight with the nk.nbf flash.

Is this correct?

I am in situation that I still have the 1% error even I have followed all the instructions from the forum.

The power led is not lightning and I can confirm that is not charging the batery. I have tryed to charge the battery using the special hole from behind but still no success.

Do you have an oppinion?

Re: 1% ERROR PERSIST

One question..... What "special" hole are you talking about?

MrDollyMaker
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] MrDollyMaker:
Ok, since you have a 5.17 BootLoader, you can't use the 5.15 image write. You have to use the 5.16+ due to it is coded differently. When you write the SD card, include the patch for the 5.17 BootLoader as well with the rom so it can bypass the security feature.

:) thanks for the advice again.

I am getting confused, really. Just repeated the same thing over again and again the past 3 days and suddenly I managed to patch the 5.17 for the second time (after over 50 tries). THis time I kept the SD with the patch tool and got another SD card to try to write 5.15 in it. After 4 hours, I managed to got it written then eventually downgraded the wallaby to 5.15. Now, the challange is the device is stuck in the wallaby screen everytime we turned it on. I had about 10 different ROMs originals as well as cooked ones from the kitchen, but had not been able to "write" one in the SD card. I used all OS image tool as well as xdarit, without any luck. the device wont recognized the ROM in the SD. I think the Wallaby 5.15 is working fine as I tested with the other SD card with the patch tool in it, the device still recognized the card as a diagnostic card.

I cant think of any mistake that I might have made in the procedure as I had (I think) followed every step of the procedures and had read different postings over and over again. :?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] andhy:
I made some progress as I am now 'back' in the 1% screen.

So far, I have had no luck in repeating your procedure. Always got "failed to flash" error message despite copying fresh files as per your instructions. I had downloaded different Radio ROM images (O2 type) but still had no luck.

More over, how to fix the batt charge? eversince the problem, the charger wont charge to the device i.e. LED not lit up. Someone else already mentioned this in this thread...

thanks again

I have the kind of same problem with 1% radio flash hanging. I have charge the battery trought the hole on the back cover ( in the right top corner ) but charging seems not to fix my problem yet.

You can see the picture for the conector
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] andhy:
Codectelecom: many thanks for sharing the picture. But could you pls show me the connector plug? where did you buy/ can we make our own?

as for our problem, I believe the only way to solve is to use the SD 'flash' method. unfortunately, i have not founded any clear instructions on preparing a Radio ROM image on a SD card.

what's been written on this thread are only instructions how to copy the 4 radio upgrade files to the SD/ to the device windows folder.

this had not worked in our case!!

We need instructions on how to make 'radio Rom upgrade flashable' SD card. It might be easy if you could find another working xda to make/ back up the GSM Rom to your xda. for me, it's not easy to convince people to lend their precious device to a stranger to do some strange things (most r scared when they hear about ROM/ wallaby/ boot loader etc.)

if you have other experiences, pls share with us..thanks
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] MrDollyMaker:
Ok, I see one error. Don't copy the radio upgrade files to your SD card. Copy them directly from PC to your XDA's "windows" directory. Also make sure you have deleted that damn "RSUpgrade.lnk" in the start folder that is in the windows directory. That is the key to getting in and copying those 4 files correctly in to the windows directory.

If you have tried this, I'm stumped as I have dileberatly caused the radio stack to fail several times in it's upgrade to test my method..... so I confused if it's not working....

Key step.... once you have the error on the screen of your XDA. Stop and do not let it restart. simply click on the top left corner where the menu is and it should bring down the menu. (You might have to do this really quickly as it might restart automatically if you do not) Once there, get to your File Explorer and quickly browse over to "\Windows\Start\" and than find RSUpgrade.lnk and delete it. Than once deleted, force the restart by pressing the Soft Reset hole on the left side of the XDA. Don't let that failed upgrade restart.

Than I did find you need to delete the 4 files (Or less if all of them didn't copy) before you copy the new ones over.

I'm hoping this works.

MrDollyMaker
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] andhy:
That's what I also wanted to know...

BTW, MrDollyMaker: could you please tell us how to 'prepare' a GSM ROM flashable SD card? I cannot get hold of a working second xda to do a backup. I thought we could 'write' the GSM ROM image to an SD card, so that we could use the SD to flash the device.

I have read from other threads about psdwrite (from Jeff tools) to write ROM images to SD cards, but could find any clear instructions about this command.

In addition, do you know where I can find a GSM ROM image (O2 or other 900/1800 GSM)? The "Programme B" RSUpgrade extracts would only give us the .cab file. This .CAB file would send us to the 1% screen and I (and Codectelecom) always got stuck with "FAILED to FLASH" error message.

I already tried to run 5 different cab files from various O2 radio stack versions.

Thanks in advance for your help.... :D
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] MrDollyMaker:
As far as I know, if you wish to use the SD card for a radio stack fix you need a serial cable. I don't have one so I simply have learned to break the 1% cycle with the listed instructions at the begining and than manuall transfer the 4 files from the pc directly in to the windows directory of the xda. Do not copy them to a sd card than try to get the unit to copy to it's own windows directory. It will crash it.

MrDollyMaker
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] andhy:
MRDollyMaker: MANY THANKS for your kind help.

However, I must tell you I did all as per your suggestion ( I clearly understood your instructions and tried many many times) without any luck. Immediately after the RSu upgrade started working then went to 1% then it's always the same errorrmessage "Flash Failed" Press OK to restart. And each time I only restatrted after first deleting the RSu file in the startup folder. THen each time also I l\deleted the other 4 files in the device Windows folder. I understood that copying to the SD card ' purpose was only if you could not get any active sync connection.

Where is the information about using a serial cable to fix the radio stack?

I thought if we could get a flashable SD with the GSM ROM it would solve the problem. I just managed to try to back up the GSM ROm to my SD card from a working xda. Unfortunately the bootlader was a 5.17. I had to patch it , and after patching teh GSM ROM to SD menu disappeared. The owner of the other xda won't let me downgrade the bootloader to 5.15.

Please kindly comment...
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] codectelecom:
Unfortunately there is no connector plug. Perhaps it is comming with the extra battery due to the fact that the connector is for extrabattery purpose. The gold plated connector is elastic, so if you press with a thin screwdriver on it you can just insert a small wire on the minus and plus and than connect to a regualted voltage power suply. I have use a 5 volts one with 300mA limit. That is the tricky way to charge your XDA when OS not load the drivers for power management. Another way is to open your device but i think is not to convenient.

As for the Radio part I have try all the suggestions on the forum. ANd belive me I have do it corectly. I think I have another problem cause no matter what I still get the 1% error.

Strange thing is that when the procedure for radio flash begin you can see the the radio sign is disapearing and in the same time with the error it shows up again.

Also another question to be made is why flashing the O2 and AT&T ROM goes to white screen or unusable today screen and with the Tmobile this is not happening. Also you can see in case of O2 or AT&T ROM, after using repair.zip files after you got 1%error the OS become usable 100% ( slow but ok). What is that Radio flash prcedure does between 0% and 1% ? because after that the PDA part is working. Of course the radio part is not.

I have found that the radio part cannot be flash in boostrap mode and neither from SD.

The only way is from windows device folder directly or trough activesync.

Last part is tricky cause it cannot be performed because the program is loading a dll for determine the power from the device ( which cannot pe determined due to the fact that the drivers for power are not loaded or damaged).

So we are stack in a middle of Nowhere in the " DON't Know LAND ".

In my oppinion the versions of ROM and Radio is a mess and how they match one with eachother is a pertinent question to be made.

Hope my thoughts are helpful and hope sombody will have the brillinat ideea to fix our little demons.

Thanks

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] MrDollyMaker:
Hmmmm.... I believe you. There is always some exception to everything. Have you tried pulling the SIM card out and than starting the unit? This should avoid starting the Radio section of the XDA and might give you a chance to delete the pesky bugger. If we can get it to just once start without engaging that damn RSUpgrade.exe file than we can delete it and get it fixed.

An after thought.... Possibly downloading a generic ROM from Yorch.net and using the SD card upgrade method to just change the ROM alone so that no RSUpgrade file is there. (don't use the t-mobile ones unless you go with 4.00.16. I used that one in the past and it didn't come with rsupgrade.exe installed by default) You'll of course need to do the patch along with the ROM for it to work and remember to select the >5.16 option for XDArit. I find this program works best for me. You may need version 1.02 or 1.0 for it to work. www.Yorch.net has both of them.

MrDollyMaker

P.S. I only know what I've read some place on here but can't remember where it was about using the Serial to upgrade the Radio Stack and to save off the radio stack.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] andhy:
I just realised that I had never been able to "extract" above mentioned files using winzip nor winrar etc.

I had to run the RSUpgrade.sa.CAB file in order to get those 4 files...
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] andhy:
I managed to delete the 4 files and the rilgsm.dll and also the Programme B in the startup folder. So, the RSUpgrade.exe did not run. After that I run the Programme B installation from the PC. I repeated this procedure over and over again without any luck.

I had tried the generic ROM from the kitchen such as the ver1.2, the 3.17, the 4.00.05, but did not make any difference.

As for the bootloader, I managed to downgrade to 5.15. DO you think I still need to go to 5.16+? Where can I find the file? I have never seen this 5.16 before.

Thanks again
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] andygee:
I saved mine by doing this and then reloaded the radio version with the sim out. I did copy the files over to sd and copied from there instead of the activesync thing as well.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] andhy:
I did copy to the SD card and move the files from there instead of activesync - so far NO LUCK.

question: Did your device accept batt charging i.e. the LED orange lit up?

I think this is the key to your success. Mine is not charging, it seemed (as someone mentioned it) that a file detecting the batt charging is currupted. But I dont I understand as I had re flashed the ROM over and over again with so many different versions.

Please share more of your experiences
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] andygee:

Which wallaby bootloader version did you have?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] andygee:
Mine is v5.15.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] MrDollyMaker:
If you downgraded the bootloader to 5.15 than you're doing good. Don't set the settings to anything but the 5.15 setting.

once you get those 5 files deleted, you need to manually copy those 4 files over not use the program A to do it. That was what mucked it up the first time. If you have the asian rom, than from what it looks like once it goes to install (using the program A) in unpacks the cab file some place and you can browse around until you find them and copy them out. Once you have those 4 files than you get your XDA so it can activesync and manually copy those 4 files. (not using program A or B to copy them)

MrDollyMaker
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] andhy:
MrDollyMaker:

the 4 files could not be found anywhere. I went to Programfiles/ Programme B folder to get the RSUpgrade.sa.CAB, but am not able to "extract those 4 files" because from the RSUpgrade.sa.CAB, you get 7 "raw" files.

In any case, I tried to run the TMobile RSUpgrade , which provides those 4 files directly from the .zip file. THen copying thru activesync and alsol I tried copying thru SD (i.e. not running Programme B method) . However, I still had no luck... the same 1% screen of death.

I used also the repair.zip and no luck...

I wonder if my problem is due to the fact that the xda device won't charge. I know that RSUpgrade doesn't require batt charge to be plugged in. But as someone mentioned it, it seemed that there is/ are some corrupted files including ones dealing with the batt charge.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] andhy:
I always copied the 4 files from device windows folder.

It could be that this is also the "key" to the problem.

Any idea how to get "working" 4 files for the O2 GSM 900/1800?

as mentioned the .CAB file gives these:

0rilgsm1.005

000setup.999

MONITO~1.002

MONITO~1.003

RSUPGR~1.000

RSUPGR~1.000

RSUPGR~1.004

I could guess which of those are the 4 files, but have no idea how to "extract" further.
