[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] themathers:
There are few things that I got confused with what you guys threw out; when I flashed the ROM and boot it up, I didn't see any option to add Google account, but you said I should do all my app installing and settings except the Market (several flashes and I still don't see the Market app exist), it was never there so how can I exclude it from my setting list? You mentioned about Gapps, you flashed the GoogleNose... package or you flashed the latest Gapps for 4.1.2 on Goo.Im? I have tried that, and then flash the no-update Market zip over, but it's still failure, I guess it's incompatible. Another thing, I can't create any widget on Nova launcher, they all say "Widget has crashed..." lol This ROM is a beast, I can tell ;)

Man, it's getting harder on my phone :p may be I overlooked at some point >____< Will give this ROM few more tries. (I assume you asking me about the football fan, right? If so, I'm not :D)

Really appreciate your feedback! :good::good::good:

Another ROM in the oven!!!! I tell ya mate. I'm amazed... By you lol no homo though
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Yeah, It's a bear but it's a Teddy Bear once loaded. LOL

Let me just over simplify. Sometimes I try to explain too many things & even confuse me.

1.) Wipe everything 3 times. Dalvik, system format AND factory resets.

2.) Flash Rom & let settle at the introduction screen before doing another thing.

3.) Go thru JUST the introduction & just answer what's necessary to get you thru just that part & to your ROM....then give it another minute. Don't install any apps at this point. That's for the last thing.

4.) Reboot back to recovery & then flash the supplied Gapps that I linked up for you. Then boot back up & let settle for a minute. Don't try to run anything yet.

5.) Reboot back to recovery & flash ONLY the Market that I supplied for you. Boot back up & give it a minute. At this poing you can link up to your wifi & test launch the market 3 or 4 times. It shouldn't give you any problems now. If it's still crapping out just boot back to recovery, wipe dalvik twice, reflash the Market, set permissions & reboot. Let settle a minute & retest. You SHOULD be golden.

6.) Reboot back to recovery & flash your KB Fix. Boot back up & let settle a minute.

7.) Reboot back to recovery & flash you Data Drop Fix. Boot back up & let settle a minute. Mess around a little with what you have & get all that squared away and you should have in your hands a Black Dalhia. If you do & are happy....make a nandroid.

8.) Boot back up and restore, install & configure to your heart's content.

As long as you want this ROM I WILL help you....but this should do the trick.

LMPOAO! You NUT!!!

It has a REAL nice feature I haven't got going yet....but I WILL!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] themathers:
Thanks, I will try again later, but what did you mean with the introduction screen? When the phone first boots up it always bring me to Launcher choosing, no normal Android introduction screen
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Sorry. You're Right. That comes after the flash of GoogleEars (Gapps). My bad.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] themathers:
Okay I have done it but I did a little different from you.

After I followed your instruction, the market app was not shown in the drawer, so I did two things, I set its permissions to 777 and copy it to /system/app, reboot then voila, I am updating my apps now :D .

Have you tried the latest market app, version 4 *update: i failed, now I am going to set up my phone and see how the battery life is, and thank you for helping.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
GREAT!!! I'm soooo glad to hear it, Thank You for your persistance and I hope you enjoy this ROM as much as I do. :good::cool:;)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] anitgandhi:
you know when i first saw this thread i was confused as to what the name was referring to. now i'm kinda creeped out :P
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
"The Black Dahlia" was a nickname given to Elizabeth Short[2][3][4] (July 29, 1924 – c. January 15, 1947), an American woman who was the victim of a gruesome and much-publicized murder. Short acquired the moniker posthumously by newspapers in the habit of nicknaming crimes they found particularly colorful. Short was found mutilated, her body sliced in half at the waist, on January 15, 1947, in Leimert Park, Los Angeles, California. Short's unsolved murder has been the source of widespread speculation, leading to many suspects, along with several books and film adaptations of the story. Short's murder is one of the oldest unsolved murder cases in Los Angeles history.[1]

Well......I will admit that it has been absolute MURDER for many people to flash properly. :angel:

Sorry--a now obscure reference to an old TV show "Leave it to Beaver." The family name was Mathers, and on their mail box (I think) was "The Mathers."

LOL - watch what you say, or I'll have Wally box your ears!

Letting slip another age reference: when I was a kid, it was not only prime time, it was one of only THREE possible choices on TV! We were overjoyed when a FOURTH channel finally came to our area...

Sorry guys but I've searched around and googled but can't find anything on CM10.1 nightlies being discussed.

Closest thread I've found was a bug list but it's not very active.

I've just came to the AT&T GS3 about a month ago.

First thing I did was jump on CM10.1 but

switched back to stock for the reliability.

If anyone can help out that'd be awesome.

Bugs/Issues

Bugs/Issues

Calibration is still off just a slight bit.

Gapps is sometimes a bit wonky and seems to get removed at times

Sometimes /system doesn't restore correctly due to a cpio short write/read.

If for some reason you encounter this problem, you will be stuck in a bootloop. Just boot to recovery, flash your ROM and gapps, reboot. Once rebooted, please post your log on pastebin.com and give me the link. Otherwise, I will never be able to track down this issue. Out of about 50 flashes (I'm not exaggerating either. I tested the crap out of this...lol), my /system didn't restore 3 times. This of course is after I got Bonsia Backup/Restore working.

Aroma installer hangs when starting or backing up/restoring a partition. Seems to sometimes occur after mounting USB storage and pushing files to sdcard then unmounting using the back button in recovery.

If you run into this problem, first try to pull /cache/last_recovery.log, then disconnect the device from you computer, reboot to recovery by holding the power button and both volume buttons (release the power button once the Samsung logo is displayed) to make sure everything is remounted properly, then rerun FSC.

There are three very important rules that anyone who is gonna take care of a mogwai should know:

1. Don't put it near light, especially sunlight, it can kill them.

2. Don't let it get wet with water nor give it any water to drink nor bathe it.

3. No matter how much it cries or begs, NEVER feed it after midnight.

But if things go bad we can always count on Thomas Raines to come in and kick some gremlin ASS!

many thanks!!

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] DiViNEX:
I love your work tom i do, but FSC is really unstable...ran this on cwm 6.0.1.9, worked great....flashed aokp, gapps, lightning zap. Flashed AC!D audio over everything but when i went to change the build.prop....i forgot to set the permission back to the way they should be STUPID STUPID me lol ive never done that before but anyways. So i was really frustrated because fixing permission in cwm did absolutely nothing to help the cause. so i reflashed fsc BUT it went through the initial startup sequence and froze before the gremlin pic comes up. Pulled battery, rebooted to cwm, tried again same thing happened. pulled the battery tried again, same thing. It confused the **** out of me. So i thought maybe this version of cwm wasnt well fit for fsc so i flashed cwm 6.0.1.5. Ran FSC and it went passed the initial loading and i was in the aroma installer, chose option 2, formatted system fine, but when it came to data, it just stayed formatting data the loading animation was still moving so its not like it completely froze. But yea this was my experience. Am i doing something wrong?

EDIT

Finally got it to work again using cwm 6.0.1.5. Heres what i did....

1.Completely wipe/format everything within cwm (system,data,cache,dalvik) Wiped 3 times each.

2.Ran BlackHole system wipe

3.Then ran FSC, and it went through everything as it should
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] thomas.raines:
Hmm, I thought I got that issue fixed during testing. It seems to be a mount issue. When you are in recovery and you mount external (usb) sdcard to push/pull files from it then umount by pushing the back button, disconnecting, or unmounting from your PC, it doesn't load the installer right when you try to run it. In addition, it can hang when backing up or restoring /system or /data (was random on which one it would hang on). There is a binary/script update for the Aroma installer which I'm working on implementing now. I'm beginning to think that could be the cause of the issue. Unfortunately, you are forced to reboot which clears out /cache. More importantly, deletes the last_recovery.log, and I think adb logcat can't run while Aroma is running.

In short, if you run into this problem, first try to pull /cache/last_recovery.log, then disconnect the device from you computer, reboot to recovery by holding the power button and both volume buttons (release the power button once the Samsung logo is displayed) to make sure everything is remounted properly, then rerun FSC.

Added to bug tracker...
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] DiViNEX:
Aside from the issue I posted, using black hole and FSC together made my phone completely different, no more random lag, no more random 3 second freeze-ups, faster boot, overall performance is enhanced, and finally all of my TB backups install perfectly without freezes or reboots.

Love your work Thomas, and thanks :D, but I'm having a bit of a problem.

Out of the 6 or 7 times I've tried to run this, I only got it to start properly twice... And I can't seem to get it to work again. When I try to flash the .Zip, it gives me the "loading aroma" prompt, but the gremlin dude never pops up. It just chills right there till I do a battery pull :'(

If you can give me an idea of how to pull that log, I'd be happy to get that for you :)

Thanks!

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Morganmachine91:
Was this for me? Thanks... I've read it like six times lol. It seems like my problem is a little different, or at least caused by something different. Never plugged it in to a computer... Or mounted use storage..
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] thomas.raines:
Well, if you didn't plug in to a computer or mount the usb storage, then I can only assume that you downloaded with your phone, straight to your sdcard. I this is in fact correct, then one can assume you might have a bad or corrupted download. My suggested would be to delete the current one, download FSC.zip again, and attempt to run the program.

Two things to consider when downloading FSC.zip with your phone.

1) Are you using data or wifi. If you're using data, how good/bad is your data connection. Try downloading over wifi if possible.

2) You are downloading FSC.zip on your phone through xda-developers website from Goo.im server. Lots of connections from 2 servers that incur A LOT of users and traffic for a small device. As much as we like to think our beloved blaze is a miniature computer, it isn't. It is a smartphone and a pretty badass one at that, but between radio to server to server and back again, connections may not fail, but can have lag which could cause a small bit or 2 of data can get lost in the process. Maybe not enough to cause the download to fail or time out, but enough to lightly corrupt the file(s) being downloaded (especially if you are using a data connection and are on the move). Therefore, downloading over wifi is always prefered over data connection no matter how many "g's" you have...
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] DiViNEX:

Thanks Thomas, thought it might have been a bad download, did it again but I've been at work and both were with data. I'll download at home and transfer over. I'll make sure to get a log if I still have problems lol.

I just tried this last night and it did same to me freeze before the gremlin pops up and have to pull battery but it worked for me on the third try and ran perfect! It dose work very well once it starts but you just got to kick it a couple times to get it to run :laugh: is there any log we can pull for you on this thomas ? it works great but just has a little hick-up getting started.

I've tried or three times now and have had the same problems as others. First try I didn't make it to the gremlin screen. The next two I got hung up at the 17% mark. The last time it sat there for over an hour before I pulled the battery and forced a reboot.

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] thomas.raines:
Are you plugged in to the wall or computer? Did you try to pull the recovery log before you force rebooted?

Try rebooting by holding the power and volume buttons. Make sure you have enough room on your external sdcard and are running aroma from the external sdcard...
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] thomas.raines:
Some of you guys are having the same problem with aroma hanging either right at the initial startup out while backing up /system. I'm thinking it's a gremlin issue because I've ran the installer many times without fail. At first, I did have those same issues. Unplugging before starting fsc seemed to avoid it. What I need though is for someone to pull the recovery logs in cache before rebooting... maybe even try a dmesg...
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] itsLYNDZ:
Do you have to use the fsc you created before using this?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Chitown021:
Crap, I hope I didn't brick my phone... I tried to run it one more time with my phone plugged into the charger while at work. It got to 20% then froze there for over two hours. I pulled the battery but now can't get my phone to boot at all. It will flash the "Samsung" screen and then just go black. If I could just get to CWM I could flash the backup I made.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] thomas.raines:
FSC is Aroma/Aroma is FSC. Aroma is a recovery installer similar to TWRP.

Yep, you bricked it... But it's a soft brick so we can fix it very easily.

Pull the battery then put it back in. Hold the power button and both volume buttons at the same time (make sure the phone isn't plugged in to anything). Once you see the samsung logo, release the power button but keep holding both volume buttons, and in a few moments, you'll be in recovery mode. Run FSC without the phone plugged in to anything. I would select the filesystem cleaner only option. Hopefully you made a Titanium backup. If not, install your ROM of choice, boot the device, make a backup then run FSC using the filesystem cleaner only option.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Chitown021:
You rule Thomas! Once I got back into recovery I was home free. I installed the backup that I made before screwing around with my phone this morning. I think in addition to running this without the phone being plugged in I'm also going to re download the zip file. I did the original from my phone over wifi. This time I'll download it to my computer then xfer it to my sd card.

EDIT:

OK, I'm giving it another try. I am running the program without the phone plugged in. Hopefully it's not frozen again. It finished up the system files and it's on the data @ 20% again. Not sure how long it should take or stay on the same percentage.

I want to try this, but I'm nervous with how many times people are having to retry it. I keep getting so many random reboots on my current rom and need to update to the newest version of aokp anyway
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] woodyjlw:
I agree. just ran FSC again just to see and it worked first try. since it seems to run so fine after you finally get it to run then there must be enough clutter or (Gremlins) in the file system to goof it up. running black hole wipe may clean up what is blocking FSC from running smoothly. My phone has never ran smoother since cleaning it up! Just goes to show how rough the Gremlins are on our file systems goofing up our roms and doing what Gremlins love to do......Bug the heck out of us!

:D Thomas Raines is our new Gremlin slayer !!

Oh and not to take anything away from black hole wipe!!! it is an awesome cleaner too.....it took a combination of both BHW and FSC to get my end result...
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Morganmachine91:
Tried another twenty times or so, can't get it to work consistently... :(

Seems like I'm having a similar experience as everyone else. It's more likely to work right after black hole. For me it always hangs right before where the gremlin pops up. Downloaded with pc.

If someone can tell me how to get the log from /cache, I'd be happy to try to run it a couple times and then upload that :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Morganmachine91:
Annnddd I'm working on how to pull the log file from /cache, I think I figured it out in theory.. But I can't get ADB to recognize any devices when I'm in recovery. I can pull/push files fine as long as my phone is booted normally, but when I'm in recovery mode the command

adb devices

doesn't give me anything... ahhhg so frustrating. Device manager sees my SAMSUNG-SGH-T769, but says there's an error with the driver... tried reinstalling the driver from the Samsung website and the USB driver in the extras tag of the SDK manager... nothing will work.

Probably the wrong thread for all of this, but I really want to get those logs to you Thomas. I'll keep trying.. but if anyone is willing to share a configuration that works for them to get ADB to work in recovery, that would be sweet :D

Thanks

Try

adb shell

mount /sdcard

mount /system
