Enough with the kitkat already.

I respect posts with quotes from official sources but these are just speculations, a personal-future conclusions. You already have too high expectations from kitkat.

Standby a little and we will get more details about it from google soon.

[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Dovidhalevi:
Possibly OT: SuperSU requests update (or its main pane UI is unavailable).

It fails to update from within the app.

Chose to do so using recovery, ended up with a soft-bricked phone. Stuck on Cynamogen logo. No adb.

Take out battery, replace, plug in USB and from charing mode adb reboot recovery (fffeewww!)

Restore from backup.

So downloaded [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION]'s 1.69 installer.

Reboot recovery, made newer backup, installed the zip. Soft-bricked again.

Anybody have a solution for this mess?
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] shinobisoft:
Not sure what android version you have, but chainfire plainly states that 4.3 users may have to manually reroot their device.

Sent from my LG-P769
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Dovidhalevi:
I saw that by the device is rooted!

I am using the September 4 build of this ROM.

How would I "re-root" it?

What if superSU were removed?
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] ibub:
Question is, would that apply to only official 4.3, or CM 10.2 also?
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] shinobisoft:
Have you tried sideloading the SuperSU update? When prompted by the SuperSU app, don't select the "Normal" method. Instead select the TWRP/CWM method. This will sideload the update. Reboot into CWM/TWRP and install the update.

Obviously a 'su' binary is required to be present on the device in order to handle superuser requests. Which superuser app you use is really of no consequence. I prefer SuperSU others prefer SuperUser. No matter which one, I always install the 'su' binary, not the APK, to /system/bin and also to /system/xbin. That way there is always a valid 'su' binary available to be called.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Dovidhalevi:
and that bricked the phone. Dev is aware, I am not the only case.

Anyway this is progress. At least build was successful.

Thanks to Devs!
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] ibub:
I believe the" set_metadata_recursive" command is setting permissions, and is involved with the file_contexts which appeared in cm10.2 (selinux policy). Not sure, but I think some permissions (changed) are incorrect according to selinux.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] ibub:
Ok, I compared the updater script with file_contexts, side by side, and made a list of discrepancies. The first half of my file is set_metadata that is not listed in file_contexts. The second half is files in file_contexts that have no set_metadata statement in the updater script. So here is the file:

http://www.mediafire.com/view/?xx47o5bri9jg7bh

---------- Post added at 09:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:14 AM ----------

Also looked at updater script from cm10.2, and there are no set_metadata statements. This must be something new with kitkat.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] kprsnt:
yaa

its a new implementation

also now in kitkat

bootclasspath is not in init.rc file

its separately given in init.environ.rc

I made changes to updater script to flash the zip

its successfully flashed but struck at cm logo

Then i replaced old cm10.2 boot.img(there is no diff cm 11 and cm10.2 boot.img except init.environ.rc file )

its booting but

its showing one error in logcat

and

service 'media.audio_policy' died

[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] kprsnt:
I tried with latest twrp 2.6.3.0

This build was successful due to skip the chromium jar file which is present in framework folder

And regarding set_metadata permissions

Galaxy nexus aosp 4.4 ROM has set_perm like 4.3 permissions

IT seems like old permissions should work on 4.4

Just a stupid question... Has anyone tried the recovery that gets built with the ROM on Jenkins and if the recovery works, does it then install 4.4? As I mentioned previously, the newest, as in the KitKat port, recovery was needed to install KitKat on my Galaxy Tab 2.

[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] ibub:
I haven't built for a while, but if you've got Ubuntu set up with all of your build essentials, you can init repo, build/envsetup sh, repo sync with cm11 branch at androidarmv6. Once all of the sources have finished downloading, you can then create a local manifest which points to my modded repo, adding a line to ignore the corresponding repo at cyanogenmod. Then you can build the rom with brunch or maybe only the updater from inside that directory by using mm command (But I've never done it that way). Yeah, it's a lot, but all we really need is the update binary to be able to flash and test. ;)

Some OT.

For those who using Link2SD.

Due different mounting point in Settings > Partition info absent info about 2nd sdcard partition.

To fix that just flash attached file. It install simple init.d script:

#!/system/bin/sh
mount -wo remount rootfs /
rmdir /sd-ext
ln -s /data/sdext2 /sd-ext
mount -ro remount rootfs /

Trim the ROM first. Replace LatinIME apk with one provided by rahulsby (ca 2MB instead of 10MB). You can get it from link on rahulsby's signature. Thanks go to rahulsby.

I deleted browser, calculator, and localized fonts from /system/app and deleted /extras, hence I gained ca. 37MB on system partition. It's quite enough to flash rahulsby's mini gapps. Thanks again to rahulsby. In my case I used mini gapps for 4.2, and I'm just fine :)

As mukulsoni posted, before flashing, wipe data/factory reset, dalvik cache, battery stats and format /system.

Do not forget make nandroid backup, just in case.
