[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Cool. I am getting pissed because I am doing the same thing over and over and am expecting different results. Isn't that the definition of madness? :silly:

Your system is same as mine. I didn't get an exact file list from you dude, but you did tell me the gapps you used. I used that same zip, know it is a good file, it failed right away, so I must be doing something wrong. If I change things up a bit, I got a chance to try again. So, here is how it will go, trying it now.

Been doing all this with power cord plugged into charger. Should not be necessary with a very full battery (92%) so no more power cord. Been trying to install from ext SDcard. Used USB to PC to duplicate my ROMS folder to the internal SDcard. Will update from internal storage instead of ext SDcard. Downloaded the newest CM11 NIGHTLY because 1230 and gapps were just not happening. Now I have cm-11-20131231-NIGHTLY-spyder.zip and will use gapps-kk-20131208.zip. I think metadata does not matter by now. Making a fresh SS backup now of my current CM10.2 because it really works good, everything works and is setup the way I want. Backing all but stupid webtop and cache. Will completely delete rom slot1 and recreate it to really give this thing a chance with a totally fresh slot.

hakarune made a really good step by step install guide here. Your guide is similar and quick like his. Do all flashing before booting to system, but he seems a bit paranoid about triple wiping between all steps. I think that is a BIT much so I will combine his step by step w/yours and do this now. I am experienced at this stuff by now, put in my time, and I earned my Senior Member Stripes and have a good start on Thanks for helping others.

I will post my file list so if this works, at least someone with the same phone will have a working list of files to use. This is the updated, FINAL list of files that I actually used to get this right.

cm-11-20131231-NIGHTLY-spyder.zip

CM11_WifiAP.zip

pa_gapps-modular-mini-4.4.2-20131230-signed.zip

JBX-Kernel-2.0-Hybrid-4.4_2013-12-09.zip

Recreating rom slot 1 now with default settings:

System Partition: 700Mb

Sata Partition: 2,000Mb

Cache Partition: 300Mb.

Here we go, creating. It is midnight and I am no way going to get frustrated and spend hours on failure. Either this works or it doesn't. Will keep this post open and post results. Wish me luck and thanks given for your valuable post information. Thank you. :fingers-crossed:

UPDATE 1: gapps failed zip file verification. Dammit! I did wipe the new slot after creating it, I think that was a stupid idea because a new slot should not have to be wiped. Battery 90%.

I will kill slot, remake it, and use your exact gapps for one final attempt for tonight. I wish a developer would jump in here and work with me on this. That is a LOT to hope for, all of you are very experienced. This makes NO SENSE AT ALL. The gapps I used are the ones recommended by CyanogenMod, gapps-kk-20131208.zip. Yet it still fails signature and I tried disabling the sig last night and it still would not go. Puzzled. I could try the same thing with no metadata, plenty of folks installed it with that gapps package. The only thing different I can see at this point is that I am installing the very latest rom, everyone else is a version or two back, but many have dirty flashed up. Okay, slot creation complete, no wiping. Try a different gapp I guess but I doubt that will do anything. "Something" else is wrong, but I will be dammed if I know what it is. CM makes you download from torrent so possible corruption, but the error messages do not indicate corrupted file.

hakarune has posted an install guide v.2. He suggest the dhackers nometadata gapps, rebooting to stock rom to put on internal SDcard and try again. He gave link for modular pa-gapps and I can download it from goo. At least there is an md5 to compare it to. IT PASSED. Going for it last time. Has to work or something else is dreadfully wrong.

UPDATE 2:

Yeah yeah yeah, WiFi is really working, just did not show during setup. Google is putting my stuff back so cannot check WiFi AP yet. Don't want to break this download script. Chose Google Launcher over Launcher3. I like this a LOT! OMG, everything seems to be working now, and rather smooth and quite nice so far. I guess it was getting the right gapps and checking the md5 first. Updated my file list to what really worked with correct gapps. apk files are for later, of course. Not for flashing. This really was a rather fast process once I had the right files! Yes I did delete rom slot 1, recreated, and did not wipe it prior to installing, left it clean as it was created. I love u man!

Hmmm, Mobile Network set to Gobal. I have bars but no dialer. I think I have to use the LTE thing. But where the heck is the dialer? Only 2 desktops, oh no, this will never do! Pick a better launcher. Afraid to change anything, Google is very busy putting my stuff back and wifi is up. Will play with it when Google gets done. Okay I found the phone, it is called "Phone" in the app drawer, duh! Changed to LTE w/everything else & CDMA. Once Google quits, I will check data and shut off wifi.

Update 3:

Okay Google is busy as hell, putting everything back. It even got my nice girly wallpaper right. Most settings are the way I had them. Camera does work but with Google putting everything back, it is late, I will go to bed and play with it tomorrow. Ditched Google Launcher for now in favor of Launcher3 (Stock) because you get 3 desktops instead of 2. Love the Calendar widget. For sure a better launcher I will get, probably Apex and just pay for it. Overall, I am pretty impressed! Cannot check WiFi AP now, wireless is on and Google is busy. I know what happens when you mess with that stuff while Google is putting your stuff back, it will stop and then what, factory wipe to start it again? I don't *think* so! Going to bed. Thank you, thank you everyone. Much to report and questions to answer to others asking tomorrow. 'night all!

Can't sleep yet!

The Xposed framework is built in? No su binaries, built in? WOW! These guys were not kidding around with this build. 3 cheers for CyanogenMod ROM Developers! Okay, the launcher sucks a bit, but who cares! This is DA BOMB! ...yes, the camera is WAY HD!

One favor please? I have been here a long time and am really working hard to nail down these final install issues with other people. If this post in any way helps you, please boost my thanks with the Thanks button. Thank you!
