[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] franek_polak:
Hello,

First of all, I'm new in this forum and I don't know if it's the right place to post this question

I've been through many researches on the web but I couldn't find a clear answer to my problem,

If someone has the resources to help me I'd be glad

So my problem is:

I wanted to install KatKiss ROM - Asus TF101 from this very forum

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2592890

And I've started to follow the information given on the page : (if important I use ClockworkMod Recovery v3.1.0.1)

Backup everything !

Go to recovery

Make a full wipe / factory reset (you can skip this step if you're already on KatKiss-4.4, if ever you encounter a problem do the full wipe and try again before reporting )

Format /system

Flash the rom

Flash optional kernel

Flash gapps

Wipe cache/dalvik

Reboot

So I went through the first steps.

I made a factory reset (not with CWM but on the Android settings)

I didn't watched but I think it went ok.

When the Pad booted I couldn't access anymore to the real Android,

but I thought it was due to the manipulation I was doing

So to be sure the previous process wen well I made a full wipe/factory reset with CWM Recovery

I put all the zip files on a SD card that I put in the device,

I can access to the files on it

and as instructed I installed

KatKiss 4-4-2_023c.zip

KatKiss 4.4_AddOn_TF101G_Kernel_01.zip

gapps-KatKiss-4.4.2_20140221b.zip

When rebooting I couldn't acces anything but CWM.

Well I came to ask, what should I do, what should I check, what I shouldn't do?

I've tried to use the function Restore, because when I installed CWM I made a backup as instructed, but it seems to fail when I want to restore.

In need for answers, I thank you in advance for any piece of advice.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] franek_polak:
Since I got no answers I tried by myself some stuffs

I installed CyanogenMod 9.1.0-tf101 (only problem I can't connect to home wifi :good:)

I can access to the desktop of the tablet now (that's nice!)

But I have still some problems for which I'm looking answers.

In my reserches in found that the biggest mistake I made was to install Rom Manager (5.0.2.0) to access CWM

(Well, i'm a rookie...)

Now my best wish would be to run the tablet Katkiss 4.3 (i've seen that there were some compatible version for my TF101)

- How can I manage to get rid of Rom Manager ?

- How can I replace CMW by TWRP ? (It seems to be way better than RomManager & CWM)

- How to install

I don't understand all of the technical terms, Kernel Roms Drivers Flash Cyanogenmod Katkiss RomManager CWM TWRP what does what, i'm kind of lost, if any good samaritan read this I'd be so happy to have some advice of what I should do or just show me the path to some places where i can find specific answers i'd be glad..

System Info :

- Android 4.0.4

1st STEP: You need the MaUpgradeUt_NoID.exe File. The purpose of this file is to avoid any ERRORS while upgrading any part of the ROM.

2nd STEP: You need to get a hold of the ROM file so you can extract the necessary files from it. This is provided by the phone manufacturer.

****To extract the file, someone recomended WinRAR. If you don't have it, follow this: Go to

My Computer

Your Drive (mine is Drive C: )

Show the contents of this drive

Documents and Settings

Choose your folder name

Local Settings

Look for the "Temp" Folder

Choose "TOOLS" from the menu bar

Choose "FOLDER OPTIONS"

Click on the "VIEW" tab

Click on "HIDDEN FILES AND FOLDERS"

YOU WANT TO SHOW ALL HIDDEN FILES AND FOLDERS

3rd STEP: You need to extract the following files namely and add the MaUpgradeUt_NoID.exe File. These 10 files are found in one of the folders within the "TEMP" folder after running the file you got from Step 2.

ms_.nbf----------------------this file is responsible for EXT ROM Version

nk.nbf------------------------this file is responsible for Windows Mobile Version

radio.nbf---------------------this file is responsible for Radio Version

EnterBL

GetDeviceData

readme

ROMUpgradeUt

RUU.conf

RUU.dll

UI.dll

MaUpgradeUt_noID

*****You need these 11 files if you want to upgrade the ENTIRE ROM.

*****If you only want to upgrade to the RADIO VERSION then you need to delete 2 files namely: "ms_.nbf" and "nk.nbf". Leave "radio.nbf". So there are 9 files on it.

NOTE: The "TEMP" folder has many folders within it. It is your job to look which folder was created upon running the .exe file from step 2. You need to copy those 10 files and paste them on a new folder.

4th STEP: After gathering the necessary files and choosing which part you want to upgrade and keep, you need to put your device to boot loader mode by pressing 3 buttons simultaneously:

Power Button

Backlight Button

Reset Pin

5th STEP: Plug your Universal via USB. Wait for your computer to recognize a newly plugged device.

6th STEP: Now you are ready to upgrade. Double click the MaUpgradeUt_NoID.exe File to run it and follow the on screen instructions.

Hope this helps. Good luck. :D :D :D

Hi...

Nice guide indeed..but u forgot one important step....that is hard resetting after the complete upgrade... :lol:
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Pantaloonie:
I saw a thread somewhere which advised against hard resetting at the end of the procedure, so I did a soft reset instead. All worked perfectly.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] cktlcmd:
Thanks for the input guys. :D :D :D I also remember, I did not perform a hard reset myself, just a soft reset at the end. But I choose not to include that on the steps as the computer will show a window as to what you're supposed to do or press during the upgrade anyway.

radio version? Windows Mobile version? and EXT Rom?

cktlcmd, You wrote in your first post about deleting one or 2 of the files to tailor which or all 3 of the versions you want to upgrade? I don't get it? What are the differences between the three? Who wouldn't want to upgrade everything? I have an o2 Exec in the USA. I changed the ROM to I-Mate, but it is still so bad. I have to reset the phone all day long. I am trying to reload the Jasjar rom or the other ROMs to just try something to maybe see if it will perform better. I have downloaded and used Pocket Mechanic and done a few other things recommended but nothing has seemed to have an improvement over freezes I get all day long. Have any advice? Thanks,
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] cktlcmd:
Re: radio version? Windows Mobile version? and EXT Rom?

I have tried all ROMs that came out on this site. The ones I recommend are only 2:

1st: QTEK's latest ROM

2nd: JWright's Modified ROM

From my post above these 3 files determine which part you want to upgrade:

ms_.nbf----------------------this file is responsible for EXT ROM Version

nk.nbf------------------------this file is responsible for Windows Mobile Version

radio.nbf---------------------this file is responsible for Radio Version

If you look at my signature below. I am using TMobile's Radio while using JWright's Modified ROM. It all depends on you which combination you feel is more stable. On my Universal, I never had any troble no matter what ROM I used, but these 2 I listed above surpasses any ROM released by other manufacturers on my opinion.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] supergsm:
Yeah I heard the same thing, I did a soft reset after installation and it worked fine.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] artcsmota:
error 120 country id

Ok, so which of the three files is responsible for the country id error 120?

I am trying to upgrado my os xda exec to the latest JASJAR_WWE_19096_19505_11300_AKU_3_2_ship rom but I keep getting the same error again.

Please, I need help.

Thanks. Antonio Mota
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] cktlcmd:
What 3 files? If you are referring to the .nbf files, none of them are responsible. Follow the instructions above and keep repeating them, sometimes it takes more than one try for the Error 120 to disappear according to some who experienced it.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] wooky:
A great post, Upgraded my O2 Exec using your procedure, worked a treat, Thank you!

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] xiasma:
I'm being really thick today and struggling here. I've downloaded

JASJAR_WWE_19096_19505_11300_AKU_3_2_ship.zip

MaUpgradeUt_noID.zip

T-Mobile_ExtROM.zip

and unzipped them.

The .nbf files are not present, althought the _ship.zip was 70mb before unzipping so I guess this contains everything :s

Is there an idiot's guide for installing this acclaimed ROM on an MDA Pro?

When I run the maupgrade tool, the wizard shows an image of an imate Jam (or something like that, not a Universal) but tells me it runs OK.

The T Mobile ext rom also shows the "wrong" HTC device but claims to run OK.

The main JASJAR_WWE_19096_19505_11300_AKU_3_2_ship.exe just gives the "120" error complaining of the wrong device (although the picture is of a universal this time at least)

Please tell me what I'm doing wrong, I'm going quite mental here :(
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] mavrik64:
resetting

Please excuse a noob question, but earlier the discussion was about the type of reset to do after the ROM upgrade. As per instructions in the s/ware, I did the cold boot. All is perfect - thanks.

If I needed to perform a hard reset at any point in the future, am I correct in assuming this would just reload the new ROM or would this reload the old O2.

Many thanks

Mav
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] cktlcmd:
Actually, you are on the right track. Now you need to run the HUGE FILE you mentioned that is about 70MB. That is the REAL file you want to extract which contains the 10 files necessary for upgrading listed on my procedure. Follow my instructions once you run this file. Follow the instructions on where you will find the files.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] cktlcmd:
YES, if you perform a hard reset. The new upgraded ROM will be the default ROM restored on your device.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] xiasma:
Thanks, but I have tried running

JASJAR_WWE_19096_19505_11300_AKU_3_2_ship.exe

and it's still giving the 120 error.

OK, from scratch.

I've just run the MAUpgrade exe and that ran *very* quickly.

I've now ran the T-mobile ext ROM upgrade, hard reset.

When the \extrom autoruns, should I just select T Mobile UK? Or cancel?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] mavrik64:
I think you are doing what I was when it finaly clicked.

By the way, thanks to cktlcmd for the breakdown of the process.

The bit you will need to understand is that when you run the .exe, it unpacks the files into a folder in the Temp directory cktlcmd mentions. All i did then was to search for one of the files listed and i found the folder that way. I then copied the files into a more convinient folder and added the MAUpgrade as per the instructions. Once i did this, running the MAUpgrade does as described.

I know this may seem a bit long winded, but I got there in the end. Also, by saving the contents of the folder elsesware means I can play with it later as also discribed by cktlcmd.

The JASJAR rom is sofar great.

Thanks for all your hard work cktlcmd

i have tried several Universal ROMS and all the upgrading is halting/freezing at Stage3: CE ROM upgrading... at 19%

all the ROMS (ivan beta14 - 1.90.96) are frozen at same level at 19%

what can be the problem or which way should i use to flash my MDA Pro ?

thanks
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] cktlcmd:
Have you tried my instructions yet? Try downloading the files again. Sometimes they get corrupted.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] fuhayer:
it is fixed by flashing with original t-mobile 1.30.232 rom.

but when i flash ivanb14 it is again freezing at 19% of stage3.

what can be the problem ? i have downloaded the ivanb14 rom 3 times and i receive the same error message.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] cktlcmd:
I suggest you follow this instruction if you have a non-IMate Universal. You can use JWright's file directly if you ONLY have an IMate branded Universal and you can also follow this procedure if you want.

Thanks. I only have Imate Jasjar so indeed i can follow JWright's direct procedure of rom update.:)

I've just found that Error 120 message appears only if the device was not put into the correct mode.

Hope this helps
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] HussainAkbar:
Preserve settings

Is there any way to preserve registry settings & non-system folders while flashing? That way the extra programs & files would get preserved after upgrading to a new ROM.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] cktlcmd:
There is a way, if you use a third party backup application like SPB Backup or SPRITE. They both support ROM upgrading to different versions, but that is not a complete guarantee that all applications will work without a hitch. Most likely you will have an incompatibility, but that is yours to take.

What I usually do is obtain a copy of the CAB file and keep a copy of it on my SD Card. After a ROM upgrade I just go through the motion of individually installing each application one by one. I give a complete 2 hours tops to have my device up and running by doing it that way. Of course this may vary to every person as I've done it many times and I already know what I have to do next.

So whatever you decide, good luck. Always make a backup before ROM upgrading!

Stuck at bootloader

I know I saw a fix for this somewhere but I can't find it now. I have tried to upgrade my ROM again (was on Indra's 3.2) to Hilmi's 3.5 (didn't work) then to Indra's 3.3.

Indra's 3.3 seemed to work, got all the way through and it set to reset so I did. Now it won't get past the bootloader. I tried reset from pin, reset with both softkeys (with both restore to factory and not) as well as going back to bootloader intentionally and doing a reset again.

No dice on all accounts. Still at bootloader. Can anyone help me get it past the bootloader?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] cktlcmd:
Reflash your Universal again. This time take the SD Card out.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] TBOMB:
Thanks, unfortunately I did have the SD out, and the SIM. I tried all day yesterday to reflash this thing using every ROM out there. Finally went to Indra's 3.3 and it seemed to work.

Any ideas as to why I can't use the ROMs from Hilmi or even Ivan's 3.5? This happened the first time I tried to flash the ROM several months ago. The only ones that don't give me problems are Indra's. Fortunately, I really like those but I would like to give the 3.5 a look as well.

FYI, I'm using the custom dialer skin from Hilmi's ROM with Indra's vista theme and it rocks!

Too bad the VGA mode stuff isn't dynamic. Rebooting to get trueVGA kinda sucks!

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] sruthika:
Hi Franklin,

You just got your Jasjar. Try it out with the original ROM for sometime. During that period, read through every single thread in the upgrading section of universal and then you will have an idea of what you are going to do.

Most of the steps and procedures are already posted. You just have to search and go through them carefully. You also have to read about the advantages, disadvantages and also the consquences (if u make any mistake during the procedure).

PS: Upgrading ROM without any proper knowledge may brick your phone.
