QUOTE=FingerMove;41047686]Do I just have to flash via CWM or do I have to extract the boot.img out of the .zip, flash it via fastboot and then with CWM again?

(That's how it's presented in the video about flashing custom roms).[/QUOTE]

you will have to unzip the folder and it should give you two files boot.img and a zip, zip is rom so copy that over to you phone, you can only flash kernel via adb or flashtool so what you need to do is open up cwm and install after install complete then flash CM kernel.

I am still on locked for the XZ but this is what i had to do on X Arc which i am 99.9% sure it is the same way
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FingerMove:
This is what's inside a CM10.1 nightly:

In the video about custom roms the order is like this:

1. Extract boot.img out of the .zip

2. Put cm10.1.zip and gapps.zip on sdcard

3. Flash boot.img via adb

4. Restart into cwm

5. Factory reset/wipe cache

6. Install cm10.1.zip and gapps.zip

7. Reboot and it should start CyanogenMod 10.1

Should that also work?

Sorry for so many questions and step-by-step asking, I just don't want to brick it or get bootloops, since that would completely throw me off.

Thanks in advance!

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maddhouse:
1 Download the prebuilt release of CyanogenMod you wish to install. (Or if you've built CM yourself, look in the $OUT directory for the .zip.)

Optional: Download any supplemental 3rd-party applications packages for the device you wish to use. (You have to install a 3rd-party app to get the Google apps, like Gmail, Play Store, and Youtube.)

2 Place the CyanogenMod rom .zip file on the root of the SD card.

Optional: Place any supplemental packages' .zip file on the root of the SD card.

3 Extract the boot.img from the zip, you will need this file for fastboot.

4 Put the phone into fastboot mode:

5 Open a terminal on the PC and enter the following:

fastboot -i 0xfce flash boot boot.img

fastboot -i 0xfce reboot

While the device reboots, press the Volume rockers a few times to load recovery.

6 Once the device boots into the ClockworkMod Recovery, use the physical volume buttons to move up and down. On most devices, the power button is used to confirm your selection, although for some devices the power button is used as a "back" button to go up one level, in which case the home button is used to confirm the selection.

Optional/Recommended: Select backup and restore to create a backup of the current installation on the Xperia Z.

7 Select the option to wipe data/factory reset.

8 Select Install zip from sdcard.

9 Select Choose zip from sdcard.

10 Select the CyanogenMod file you placed on the sdcard. You will then need to then confirm that you do wish to flash this file.

Optional: Install any additional packages you wish using the same method.

11 Once the installation has finished, return back to the main menu, and select the reboot system now option. The Xperia Z should now boot into CyanogenMod.

I'm looking for a good VPN that will get me fast speeds. The best I've tried is hotspot shield but its VPN is in California and I need a VPN out of north america (Europe is good). Hot spot gives me around 8-9mbps which is great but for what I need I need a VPN that connects out of north aamerica. I've tried many that do have vpns in other countries but don't give me the speed I need (I usually get 1-1.5mbps with those). I use it to stream video from NBA game time which is meant for people out of the USA or Canada that cannot see NBA games on their TV (I just don't have sports channels)

Hi fellow mates!

I'm currently using Samsung Galaxy Mini GT-S5570.

Android Version: 2.3.4

Baseband Version: S5570DXKPD

Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7-perf-CL561540 root@DELL151 #1

Anyone have any idea on how to overclock for this particular device? Or do you have any links with regards to this question?

Would appreciate if anyone could help!

Many thanks! ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] immortalneo:
To overclock, u would need to flash a kernel that supports overclocking.

same problem here......
[HTC Droid DNA] bluesamg:
Droid DNA in my POV should have:

-A brighter 1080p 5 inch screen.(Same display tech as the LG Spectrum 2)

-A RGB front and rear light notification. (Maybe soft buttons could change colors also)

-Upgraded battery and battery life

-Upgraded storage to 32GB(Maybe SD card slot?)

-Processor and RAM upgrade

-Upgraded Sense UI to be more stock android-ish and make Sense widgets available outside of HTC Sense(and better stock wallpapers)

-5 UltraPixel Camera(Because the 4UP camera looses detail when magnified).

Design:

-Metal bezel with red accents(and buttons) on side and metal Boom Sound cover.

-Thinner design and back of the phone should be a metal looking piece of plastic(So that you can use Qi Wireless charging).

-Newest version of Gorilla Glass

My crap 2D render:

-I did not know where to locate the red volume and power buttons(I prefer volume button on left as I am left handed and power button on top right of the phone).

-Pretend Multitasking is now menu buttons(On HTC One you just double press the home button to bring up multitasking).

Just pretend there is a red outline surrounding the metal earpieces(aka Boom Sound).

[HTC Droid DNA] ocman40:
Brighter screen? Dont see how you can improve the DNA's screen very much honestly. It pretty much rocks.

Battery life?? Battery Life is stellar already considering...

Upgraded sense? You can drop a sense 5 rom on already and get it.

Other than more storage I dont see many things that need much improving.
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
And on top of that, why the hell would you need more than 2 gigs of ram.
[HTC Droid DNA] iluvandroid6879:
The "16" gigs is pathetic so an sd card slot would be a great idea. Other than that the phone is perfect.

[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
How is having a screen on time of 4 hours and the battery lasting all day bot average. Just because the battery life isn't like the note 2 doesn't mean it's not above average. That's like a cars below average because they didn't put a v12 in it.

[Samsung Captivate Glide] sbiricuda:
There's a thread reporting current bugs.

Those bugs are still important but I can say that these ROMs already work very good.

Thanks to dman for original work and, lately, to spyke555 and kick who are really doing an excellent job (development was almost dead before they committed and i'm very thankful to them for what they are doing).
[Samsung Captivate Glide] spitfire2425:
I've seen the current bug thread but it's for 4.2.2 I need 4.1.2
[Samsung Captivate Glide] yohan4ws:
He already answered your question, the 4.1.2 weren't ever completed, they were abandoned... hence why the issues in those roms are still present.

Install PACRom 18.2 and then apply the fixes for keyboard etc. I think the fixes are in the litekernel thread. Put on the latest litekernel for 4.1 keyboard fix, lights fix and you'll have the best working 4.1.2.

Note - skype and bluetooth headset still won't work, pretty sure the camera issue with rotation is still present. I ran pacrom 18.2 for MONTHS without any issue except those listed and the wake lag.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] spitfire2425:
I was trying to port something, not use it as a rom.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] myxoh:
GPS and other features

Uhm is any STABLE release with:

GPS Working (most important)

MUSIC Working

Skype Working

Camera Working

Google Now Working (this seems to be an issue from all custom Roms)

Since I've seen most these features working but none on the same ROM all together
[Samsung Captivate Glide] yohan4ws:
Not for version 4.1.2 (jellybean)

Only ICS 4.0.xxx ...

****, somebody needs to make a sticky for the most current stable rom .. this question keeps coming up over and over and over in every forum and many threads.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] roothorick:
GPS has always worked. Some of the technical data returned is invalid/bogus but Google Maps/Navigation is completely unaffected.

Again, it's always worked, so long as you don't have an app trying to record audio at the same time.

Skype works for text messages, but received audio in calls is corrupt. The core of the issue is audio playback breaks when an app opens the microphone. (Ironically, the microphone itself actually works fine, i.e. voice recognition has messed up audio cues but it does process what you say correctly.) Current hypothesis is it's a driver issue. Research is ongoing. This is a longstanding issue going all the way back to our very first JB kernels.

Current CM10.1 and derivatives have a fully working camera.

This is actually a known problem with Google Now itself, it depends on an instruction set the Tegra 2 doesn't have. The Galaxy R and the Galaxy Note 10.1 have the same problem, on ALL Jellybean ROMs, even official. Bug Google, not us.

There is a workaround: downgrade GNow to a working version (possibly by flashing old gapps), then disable "Hotword detection" in settings. Once that is turned off you can upgrade to the latest and it will still work.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] myxoh:
Thanks for the reply

Thanks for the reply but:

1) GPS was not locking for me until I changed the gps.conf file in MOST of the ROMs I've tested.

2) Music didn't work on one rom I tested (now and then the music player started lagging and it automatically stopped every few seconds for a few milliseconds)

3)Thanks for the Skype reply; I was hoping there was some version with this fixed but evidentely not.

4)Camera flips orientation in all the roms I've tested. HDR just worked in 1 of them. Camera actually crashed from time to time in one of them.

5)Oh, sad about the Google Now fact. It's actually one of the main reasons I wanted JB :(

The skype thing Can't be a hardware issue since I've used skype several times before rooting my device. The issue you are talking about happens on google voice sometimes; therefore I'm guessing you're right on thinking that the problem is on the driver.

I'm very interested in ROM building since I'm an app developer for android and a C++ programmer; yet I've been too lazy to check how it worked. Are the drivers we are using open source? or are we just messing with the conf files trying to get things fixed?

hi,

I love AOKP for the sheer amount of things you can customize in that rom. I used it solely because of the ability to make the nav bar smaller.

I have been a fan of CM since 2009, and have always appreciated their abilities. A lot of roms use them as a base, so they must be doing something right.

I used ParanoidAndroid recently, and while I liked it, and it shows promise, it ran like crap on my phone.

I just use a stock rooted rom (verizon 4.2.2), as it runs the best on my phone. CM, AOKP, and PA were all laggy compared to stock for me.
