Using CCahe

Now something very important who gonna compile ROMs, use CCache. It'll spped up the building process. ;)

CCache - Compiler cache

How to use?

> Open a Terminal(Ctrl+Alt+T)

>

gedit /.bashrc

[You can use any alternative to gedit :p )

> Add the following lines to it:

export USE_CCACHE=1
export CCACHE_DIR=/[COLOR="Red"]source[/COLOR]/prebuilts/misc/linux-x86/ccache

Source here is the folder in which you have the code downloaded.

>

cd source

>

prebuilts/misc/linux-x86/ccache/ccache -M [COLOR="red"]25G[/COLOR]

25G = 25 GB of space to be used as CCache. ;) You can use any value in this. :D

How does ccache work ?

Well , in short , what it does is that for C and C++ programs it caches the output. One it detects that the program is getting repeated it directly sends out the output and thus reduces the time of compilation.

After using ccache you will really feel the difference in the compilation speeds of your ROMs and kernels. //Copied. :P

Credits - Red Devil. ;) :p
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] thewisenerd:
I use CCACHE, but the only difference is that I don't specify the directory. also, I did a "apt-get install ccache" long ago, and set file size according to that. :D Its still working just as fine.

and oh, yes, adding that USE_CCACHE=1 to .bashrc is required ;)

shameless bump.

since my board exams are over (sort of; only CS is left); i thought of building something for pico (a looong time since I did so).

Waht do I build?

At first thought; one *pure* CM9 build with *some* cherry-picks;

another; an updated CM11 build (updated sources and stuff)...

fixing up omx and stuff on Omni is on the "to-do" list and going to take some 'time' to do; so don't expect it to be fixed already :silly:

So; which one do I 'invest' time in? :cyclops:
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] mirhl:
[MENTION=4869275]thewisenerd[/MENTION]

MTP and OTG in cm9

Cm11 only if you can make it compressed :p
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] thewisenerd:
you mean MTP && USB tethering?

edit: a test build will be up today (if build goes well, that is).

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
Go and read the basics in general forum sticky threads, before you brick your phone. Use Philz recovery to flash, use odin to flash the recovery, check the md5 of every download before you try to flash it.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snidhin08:
Ok..Can u plz answer this doubt..As i have Flashed the recovery already,..is it possible to flash another?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
Yes, the recovery you've flashed is very old and will cause SDS. Visit Philz thread and follow the guide on flashing.

Oh so you have fallen into this category which is a knox walking time bomb. At the moment your knox will not trip. But you are rooted with new bootloader., There is a high chance your knox will trip when you try a factory reset.

As to whether you can safely update with mobile odin pro, this I am not sure. Hope someone else can give you the answer. ;)

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Allen Hu:
Well I was looking for an Honami Rom days ago,

and I flashed THIS: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=47112717&postcount=74

Then when I tried installing CM11 or AOKP it fails, only STOCK based ROMS work

I reflashed the firmware with flashtool and repaired with PC Companion

but when I go to CWM I still get status 7 error when flashing CM11

Can anyone help?

I'm on Xperia V with unlocked bootloader
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] St.Jimmy90:
Umm, that's odd..... Try to install TWRP and flash CM11 or whatever with it
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Allen Hu:
TWRP not working too :silly::crying:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] zaize:
Same problem. Have you find any solution?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Allen Hu:
Flash AOKP mr2 every time when you switch Roms, IDK why but you should be able to flash other roms after doing this
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] zaize:
Man thats crazy - but it worked! Thank you :victory:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Aria.A97:
First flash kernel of ROM that you're going to install via fastboot, then reboot to recovery and flash ROM :laugh:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Antiga Prime:
Does the error say only "status 7", or does it say anything else also, such as "this device is xxxx, etc."?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Allen Hu:
The problem is already solved here...

it showed the " this device is "mint"" or something like that :rolleyes:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Antiga Prime:
Ok, I know the problem is "solved", but it's not really solved if you don't know what is going on; this problem is not odd. In order for you to flash a file, there is a file in the zip named "updater-script" in the "/Meta-inf/com/google/android/" folder which has the commands that are run when you flash it, be it with CWM or TWRP. The first two lines of that file read the device identification from the "build.prop" file that comes with the ROM you currently have installed, so, if that ROM is identifying your device incorrectly, or using strings that aren't exactly like the ones contained in the "updater-script", it won't work.

Now, flashing a different ROM before flashing the ROM you're going to use without wiping /system and /data is a dumb thing to do, IMO, because the "updater-script" files don't always erase everything and leave behind remnants of the previous ROM, which is why tons of people complain about little bugs and problems with their ROMs, when other people who do in fact flash properly don't have these problems and therefore can't help them, and then these people blame it on the ROM, saying it has bugs and other stuff when in fact they don't know what they are doing.

All this to say, instead of having to flash an entire different ROM as per what [MENTION=4646694]Allen Hu[/MENTION] suggested, what I do is extract the "updater-script" file and delete the first two lines that say:

In my case, the ROM is made for an LT29I, not an LT25, but you get the point.

After deleting that line (with Notepad++, not Windows notepad), just add the script file back, and you can flash it on any device you like, and that would be a proper solution. ;)

I have tried to install CM12 using CWM but I got this error.

After deleting the first line on updater-script file I got another error:

Creating symlinks....

(Status 7)

installation aborded.

I have tried to delete also the second line and the third and the 4th but every time the same error.

Do you have any idea of what is happening?

Can you please provide some basic instructions on how to install this custom ROM with Flashtool?

Thank you
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Antiga Prime:
First, you can't just go deleting lines; if they are there, it's for a reason. Second, I'm pretty sure your CWM version isn't up to date in order to flash a CM12 ROM. And, you can't flash a Custom ROM with Flashtools.

What you can do, however, is extract the boot.img from the ZIP file, flash that kernel with Flashtool, and then Flash the ROM in what most likely would now be TWRP recovery.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jfinnie:
Bought from Tesco, IMEI printed inside back cover is 8 digits away from the IMEI on the packaging! Obviously someone on the line muddled up the rear casings...
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] helppme:
It's not unheard of, does happen.. Notify the place you bought it from, ask for a new receipt/invoice with the CORRECT IMEI for you phone. It doesn't really matter, but if you ever lose the phone or there is a dispute over who owns it you would need this to prove it's yours or get the phone blocked on the network (if it's stolen).

Obviously the one on the phone (in the about phone menu) is the real one.. I say this, because if some numpty has the phone with your back/box (IMEI) on, and they lose it, its possibly the dumb network people could block your phone by mistake.. No one wants to wake up to a blocked phone and a load of hassle..
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jfinnie:
I returned it - I imagine in a multiple like Tesco you have no chance of getting such an ammendment done to the receipt (heck, the receipt doesn't even list the IMEI). There is at least one scenario which could arise even more problematic than above - my unit is actually programmed with the SAME IMEI as the other device because someone scanned another phone back before programming the IMEI. Not worth the hassle really. Annoying though.

It does seem like the quality control is not brilliant - or at least the Tesco got a batch which were made at a time when the factory were pushed or similar. I work in high-end electronics design so I might be fussier than most - but each of 4 phones bought from Tesco within a 3 week period have had some fault or other. Admittedly not massive faults (though the IMEI mix up is perhaps fatal for your phone).
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] helppme:
I think it's Tesco at fault. They are given the units they then open them, insert their sim and assign IMEI etc. I think they are clumsy idiots who damage the backs, mess up the packaging etc. during this process. I'm very confident they are unskilled people and this is not being done in a 'clean' environment like where the phones are manufactured. The dead pixel is probably Motorola's fault.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Amigahd:
I had updated my unlocked / root 4.1.2 to stock 4.3 the other day and of course lost root.. Now i see there is a OTA stock Root 4.3 MJ9 posted by Beans in the Developer section but needs an unlocked bootloader.

Is there a way to unlock the bootloader on stock 4.3 yet? Odin won’t let me put CWM recovery on - will fail, which I’m thinking is due to bootloader being locked.

I had used casual on 4.1.2 to unlock root and get custom recovery, but casual has not been updated yet for 4.3 from what i could find.

Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] thisguyeh:
I think you are stuck on a lock bootloader for a long time sorry.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Amigahd:
Thats Kinda what I thought. Grrr.... Guess its possible to go back to 4.1.2 and unlock phone then do the Root Stock update, maybe ill give that a shot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TonikJDK:
I do not think that is possible.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] computerslayer:
That's a no go. The boot loader is locked tight, and you can't downgrade.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mike7728:
it'll end up giving u a soft brick.youll end up having to re-odin 4.3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] drag&fly:
Never take OTA updates until you know what's in them, that is if Keeping root and being unlocked are important to you. Learn from others mistakes and or wait for Development to clear it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Amigahd:
that stinks I cant go back. I somehow did get my phone rooted, dont remember all that I did. so I am good now except...

Now the hotspot app I had wont work, gives the verizon subscription message. Ive looked for a way around this and I tried the app Wifi tether as a post had mentioned but that wont work, gives error when starting but error log is empty.

Do I need to flash a custom kernal possibly? or anyone know of a working fix?

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Amigahd:
I remember how I got root. I used Kingo. Had never used it before but it worked. Just cant get wifi tethering to work :mad:
