[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Not quite.

You cannot flash BL or TWRP separately from that package. It's either both or none.

But flashing the package would be the easiest and safest method to get you on a current recovery in my opinion.

GooManager: For a few weeks now Goo did not support flashing recoveries anymore. I've read it often enough that I consider that information confirmed - although I have not tested it myself.

Now - just yesterday I read a post where a user reported that Goo got an update and he flashed TWRP successfully. That's one report I know of - if you want to give it a try, go for it. It can't hurt.

The thing is, to use GooManager you have to root the stock rom you are running.

I don't know if the stock rom you are running is rooted, but why bother if you can just flash sbdags package??
[Asus Transformer TF700] GPWILL:
Sounds like choosing _thatv7 from the 5.2.2 also upgrades the bootloader also to 10? I assumed you needed the correct bootloader already installed.

I will give goo a go and see what happens.
[Asus Transformer TF700] GPWILL:
Well goomanager didnt work for me. Just sits on "downloading" forever. only option was to upgrade to 2.6.3.1

Off to get fastboot working..
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
_thatv7 is one of the kernel choices - changing a kernel does not do anything to the bootloader.

Look at these elements of the system as parts of an engine: If the bootloader is the starter motor, the kernel may be the distributor.....

Thanks for trying Goo, the score is 1:1

Anyway, to get fastboot working is worth the effort. It's great for troubleshooting or pulling logs and such. It's very helpful to have a working fastboot connection BEFORE you run into some trouble and really need it to work
[Asus Transformer TF700] GPWILL:
I guess my question is if I choose _thatv7 will bootloader .8 work? The 10 after the kernel choice is what has put me down this road.

fastboot and adb working. So getting there albeit slowly.

This thread really helped a lot in my learning process..

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2546420&highlight=flash+10+6+1+14+10+fastboot

Thanks again for all the info and help.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
There's hardly anything different between the. 8 and . 10 bootloader. V7 works fine with either.
[Asus Transformer TF700] GPWILL:
Update:

Updated TWRP to 2.6.1

fastboot and adb working

Flashed 5.2.2 Cromi-X _thatv7 this time around. (used the advice from above)

Set up apps

I will def nandroid this working config..

All good now.

Thanks to everyone!

FYI I updated goomanager and tried it again on my old setup and it still did not work updating twrp. Stuck on downloading app...
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
Fastboot is a prefer method to use...:good: I always use fastboot for this stuff. It is fast and easy without any hassle...;)

How is it running? It should be running very reasonable speed and smoothness...:)
[Asus Transformer TF700] GPWILL:
It is running pretty nice. Stock browser and Chrome are a little faster than my stock setup with B2R. I have had a few " laucher has stopped" errors. This happened before I installed any apps with thatV7. Didnt get a single laucher error before on thatv4. Stock laucher. Nice and smooth on apps and such. Both stock browser and chrome are faster but not anything like "WOW". Just a little better. Nice to have it built in. I am going to give this a few more days and see if the laucher errors settle down. If it stablizes I will get another nandroid of it and try the ROM2SD to see if I can get the wow factor going.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marduino4:
Hey guys,

I'm having issues with messaging apps on my virgin mobile S2. The issue came about the other day with the stock messaging app, where I would open any conversation, and when I go to close out of it, the app freezes and then gives the "unfortunately messaging has stopped". I tried clearing the cache in recovery mode and that has not helped. I have also tried downloading 2 new messaging apps and they are both having the same issue; freezing when I close out a sms conversation. Not really sure where to go from here. Do you think a factory reset would help? Also, is there any way to re-install the stock messaging app? I definitely did a system backup with Titanium Backup a while back, but the app is showing nothing as being backed up...and I foolishly deleted my messaging app.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

-Mike
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amcgavin:
As a general response to asking "Will a factory reset help?", it's best to make a complete nandroid backup, do the reset and see if that fixes the problem. If it doesn't, you can always restore the back up.

Doing a reset will recover the default messaging app, so I'd recommend it in this case. Titanium backup should recover all your data, but be careful when recovering sms data, as there may be some corrupted messages which cause crashes.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marduino4:
Do I need to unroot before I do the factory reset?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amcgavin:
Root will disappear automatically!

If you're using a custom recovery, it may not remove root, however.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marduino4:
I just did a factory reset. It did not seem to recover the default messaging app; seems it is lost and gone forever. I can't seem to find the apk anywhere online either.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dakura:
Installing stock rom via odin will restore all system apps, in this case messaging too, so find your stock rom and flash via odin.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TEENAGERS:
Install a New ROM via Odin.Before this,It is better to do MegaWipes.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] KCRic:
First off, damn. You might want to take a refresher course on how to say what you mean without all the extra words. You wrote a book man. 90% of what you typed is unnecessary. Nobody wants to read all of that and must won't even entertain a response. Just a friendly heads up.

Now, are you sure that the RAM is being taken up by the music app and not a combination of apps/processes? The stock task manager isn't very good for situations like this so you'll need to download a system monitor. There are quite a few out there, take your pick.

Could be that when you open the music player the media scanner is eating up RAM along with other processes. Those together are killing your memory. If that's the case you need to create a .nomedia file to place in the folders on your internal/external memory. Also, do you have any other music or media apps installed?

Figure out those then post back. You might try uninstalling all your apps then reinstall them one by one ( backup first). Yes, it can take a while if you have a lot but once you install the culprit - you'll know it. Hope that helps.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] VHAHONGRANTC:
SOLVED!!

:o :o

Ah, thanks for the heads up! Sorry about the long-winded post, I just wanted to convey the issue and what I have done so far. In future posts, I will be much more concise and to the point. :D

On a good note, I have solved my issue and found that if you disable/freeze/uninstall apps but still want to use the built-in music player, there is a conflict if you disable S Voice. I was going through the settings in the music player and noticed the voice control feature (which was unchecked), but clearly the player still wants to talk with or "see" S Voice out there. I took a shot in the dark and once I re-enabled S Voice, the gobbling of RAM from the music player launching stopped. Yay!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] VHAHONGRANTC:
Not solved!

:(

Well that victory was short lived. That seemed to have only worked for about 10 minutes and it is back to the same memory gobbling issue when the player is launched. I reactivated Google Play Music and am using that with no issues, so it seems that will have to do.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] KCRic:
Well that was all I had. I don't use the stock music player since I stream with Google Music.

You might look in the app store for an app to replace the stock one. Then uninstall the stock app so you don't have the issue anymore.

turn off your router and wait a minute before powering it back on and you should be ok for a while. some routers will cope with this better than others

[Glass Development] jtxdriggers:
Hey guys, here's the source for my new application launcher. This launcher looks and feels like it belongs in Glass. The feedback I've received so far has been awesome, and I'd love to hear what you guys think.

http://github.com/justindriggers/Glass-Launcher

Props to Michael DiGiovanni and launchy for figuring things out long before the GDK release.

Apk

Tried compiling the apk from your source but it failed once sideloaded onto glass. Any chance you could provide the .apk?
[Glass Development] JohnShaft69:
please post apk for testing
[Glass Development] GSLEON3:
Yeah, source isn't compiling correctly. Please post complete source, or provide the app.
[Glass Development] mybrotherischad:
It compiled fine for me, though I had to do some tweaking in Eclipse.

I was getting the following:

[2013-12-16 22:21:03 - Dex Loader] Unable to execute dex: java.nio.BufferOverflowException. Check the Eclipse log for stack trace.

[2013-12-16 22:21:03 - GlassLauncher] Conversion to Dalvik format failed: Unable to execute dex: java.nio.BufferOverflowException. Check the Eclipse log for stack trace.

In order to fix it, I had to do two things (assuming that you've already installed the GDK sneak peak via the Android SDK)....

1. Right click on the project >> go to Android Tools >> click on "Add Support Library"

2. At the top of Eclipse, click on Project >> Clean >> selected my project and cleaned it.

Once that was done I was able to run it and have it sideload onto my Glass that I had plugged into the laptop.

Hope that helps.
[Glass Development] GSLEON3:
[MENTION=2910565]mybrotherischad[/MENTION] , Thanks! That did it. I had the GDK & I can't figure out why, but cleaning seemed to make the difference. Maybe something was hung up.

Not working on EX12

Loved this launcher amazing work. No longer works on EX12 for me.

Edit:

Works now with patch from post #11

The best sideloaded app launcher on glass!

Now working on EX12
[Glass Development] jtxdriggers:
The issue was tracked on my GitHub as well, apparently downgrading the Android Build Tools to 18.1.1 was a workaround, but 19.0.1 is out now and it seems to have fixed the problem altogether.

Unfortunately, Google's GDK developer policies state that, "You may not publish or distribute Glassware outside of the official Google-hosted Google Mirror API Client and GDK application distribution channel, unless otherwise approved in writing by Google."

I don't want to risk anything this early on, but I'm sure someone out there would be happy to compile it for you.

Fixed in the latest commit.

[Glass Development] danguyf:
Screens, features, and description in the OP.

After adb installing the file, you have to run the main activity from adb the first time.
[Glass Development] strker45:
i've installed the file with adb, however i'm having issues getting the main activity to run using adb. what commands are you using?
[Glass Development] danguyf:
I believe that it's something like

adb shell am start -a <intent>

where the "intent" is the package name and activity, like "com.google.launcher\com.google.launcher.MainActivity". I had to play around with it a bit. You can get the package name and main activity name by unzipping the APK.
[Glass Development] thet1nman:
Instead of ADB Run with Launchy

If you have trouble with running this app for the first time from adb to get it started you can also install Lanchy and run it for the first time from there.

I use both this and Launchy. Glass Launcher is slick and well worth all of the trouble if you are having any. Launchy has some bugs but it is strong and good to have around.

https://github.com/kaze0/launchy
[Glass Development] strker45:
if anyone else is having issues starting this app with adb this is the command i used " am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN com.jtxdriggers.android.glass.glasslauncher/com.jtxdriggers.android.glass.glasslauncher.MainActivity "
[Glass Development] jtxdriggers:
Kind of awkward to need a launcher to launch a launcher haha. But launchy is great, and a really clever approach to solving the problem at hand.
[Glass Development] Humanio:
I too can confirm that the APK worked great. I sideloaded the signed APK, then launched "Glass Launcher" using "Launchy". Looks slick! Out of curiosity, have you actually tried running google music apk or netflix with any success? Thanks for a lovely launcher.
[Glass Development] jtxdriggers:
The apps start up as expected, but navigation is limited. You can send input commands from ADB to select things from the lists in the apps. Netflix video playback works particularly well! Attempting to search by voice seems to crash the app though.

I wrote a service to receive bluetooth input commands from another Android device, but it only works system-wide if the service can get root access. I'm not particularly well off financially, so voiding my warranty makes me pretty uneasy. A pocket bluetooth keyboard would be a much wiser decision. I tried using other available bluetooth keyboard apps, but none of them have worked for me on my Nexus 5 (4.4.2).
[Glass Development] Humanio:
That's still pretty impressive. Don't think I'd every watch movies on Glass in its current state but the mere fact that its possible blows my mind.
[Glass Development] jtxdriggers:
It made me a bit dizzy after a while. Using Glass as a supplement to everyday activities seems to be fairly solid, but focusing through one eye for such a long period of time really got to me. It was also dark when I tried it out, and my right eye stayed adjusted to the light while my left eye adjusted to the dark.

But on the topic of bluetooth keyboards:

The service I wrote for bluetooth control of Glass needs root to run system-wide, but it functions just fine from inside an activity of the same process. Therefore, it seems completely possible to have some games on Glass (GBC emulator, for example), using your Android device as a controller. I'd love to see this idea come to life; I suppose I'll open up a GitHub project soon so people can play with the idea. (I'm currently in the process of moving and starting a new job, so it may be a while).
[Glass Development] thet1nman:
Working

I can also confirm Netflix is working, as well as Plex and several emulators with bluetooth connected controller. (MOGA)

I have gotten VLC beta to play .avi files as well.

I get some discoloration like orange seems to turn to blue.. strange

I have even played angry birds go and used my head to drive the cart

The projector gets hot after a while and my eyes start to hurt a little but SNES on glass is too cool not to do!

It gets worse because i used Launchy to start up Glass Launcher and from there I start Launcher2 to see the full android interface lol

i'm getting Inception deep on this
[Glass Development] Humanio:
Haven't tried Launcher2. What purpose does it serve, with what features in addition to Launchy or Glass Launcher?
[Glass Development] thet1nman:
Launcher2

Laucher2 gives you the Android GUI instead of the Glass GUI

So I ran Launchy to start up Glass Launcher

Then because Glass Launcher looks so good I use it on the norm

I use Glass Launcher to run Launcher2 if I want to get into the Android GUI

Very cool stuff!

I did a factory reset and wanted to try your way instead of the Launchy way.

Your commands work from adb shell

Only problem was that for some reason in your post there was a space in the end at glasslauncher.MainAc tivity

When I copy and paste it picked up that space and didn't like it. Removed that space and all went well.

When I go to quote you it doesn't show the space there so I am not sure why it did that to you, it looks like you typed it in correctly.

But for future users I wanted to say your command is correct without that space if they just copy and paste.

ShareKM Glass XE16

Wanted to post this up here since your launcher is today the only way I have to get at my android sideloads.

There is an android app called ShareKM. It has been abandoned by its developer but there is a small group of people trying to keep it alive. At any rate the point of it is to control and android device from a computer. There is an apk in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=52164367 that has made it so I can plug my Google Glass XE16 into a PC over USB and my PCs keyboard and mouse will throw over. So it acts like it sees my Glass as another screen and just walks the mouse and keyboard over!!!!

If your glass is rooted you can use bluetooth or wifi but a direct USB connection really links your PC mouse and keyboard to your glass. It is just like a PC application I love called Synergy. I use synergy to link one keyboard and mouse across a windows box, a Linux box and a Mac box. A three screen computer effect but three different operating systems!

So when I use Glass Launcher i can use ShareKM to interact with my android apps on my glass. Give it a try it is amazing!

So i got the new laucher on and its working. But Settings keeps crashing and i feel like a n00b but i can't figure out how to navigate the apps I am trying to get Cheapcast working.
[Glass Development] jtxdriggers:
XE16 seems to have removed swipe navigation from non-Glass apps. You can still input key commands via ADB if needed. Google "adb shell input" for more info on that.

I haven't used the Settings.apk but you probably need one for KitKat if you're using XE16.

[Glass Development] breakingspell:
Aside from having to start the launcher manually with ADB for the first run, I don't recall running into any issues scrolling or accessing apps. However, I didn't utilize the voice commands very much, and ended up selling my Glass after a few weeks of playing around with it. Good luck though!
