[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
it comes from the ls -l /init* which indeed doesn't have the busybox prefix but if I do it gives some other error I forget now

Anyway it doesn't harm the boot process - just an error message
[Asus Transformer TF700] psudeke:
Internal is the 5/17 build of Crombi, and its a brand new install. with a full format of the data partition (which in my haste to get this working yesterday, i wiped out my nandroid from right before i tried this).

is there any connection between when the internal is flashed compared to the external? in other words, if i reflash the internal rom, it should still recognize an existing external rom? hope that makes sense, i'm still shaking off the effects of a little too much whiskey last night.:laugh:
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
No currently if you reflash internal it will only see internal. You need to reflash external for that to work.
[Asus Transformer TF700] psudeke:
Ahh, thanks sbdags! that fixed the issue with ROM2SD. i got that impression when i pulled the preinit and saw it only had an entry for internal. but, i'm still very much in a learning phase so i didn't want to jump to a conclusion.

and after getting crombi to boot on external, i swapped sd cards and my build of CM11 actually booted! now the real learning process begins as i figure out how to customize it.

Thanks again to both you and [MENTION=4878287]_that[/MENTION], you guys are the best:good:

Just wanted to thank you both again for your help. After much trial and error, i was able to build the 5/27 version of CM and merge in that's 9 f2fs kernel, its running well so far. not a bad quadrant score for someone who doesn't know what they're doing!

[Asus Transformer TF700] psudeke:
Be careful what you wish for, I've got a laundry list of questions ranging from basic Linux commands to the nature of the multiverse, lol.

I do have one question out of the gate about the update-binary file. I'm trying to add a couple apps to either the system or data folders, but I'm not sure what commands are available from the stock CM file. I think for the most part by looking at your updater-script file I can figure out the commands to do what I want, but given the little I know about this and the size difference of the binary file between CM and the one i was looking at of yours, I'm curious. Is the best way to see what's available CM's git? I basically just want to install a different Launcher and Viper instead of DSP manager for sound. Do I need to study up on edify to look at the binary or is there an easier way?

Thanks again!
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
yes the easiest way to do it is just make 2 folders with your extra apps in it say /extras/app

then add the following to the updater-script (you don't need to touch the update-binary unless you start using aroma)

package_extract_dir("extras", "/system");

delete("/system/app/DSPManager.apk");

delete("/system/priv-app/Trebuchet.apk");

What that does is copies the extras/app folder into system and deletes your unwanted apps

note apps can be installed into 2 folders /system/app or /system/priv-app

similarly you can install your user apps into /data/app but this is dangerous with launchers as if the user manually uninstalls it you can't do anything on the tab ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] psudeke:
Thanks again! i can see how this becomes addicting fast :fingers-crossed:
[Asus Transformer TF700] psudeke:
[MENTION=518363]sbdags[/MENTION] do I need to mount data before installing anything to the /data/app folder? I saw in your updater-script this line, and i'm assuming i need the same:

mount("f2fs", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p8", "/data");

one other quick question (hopefully), I saw in the XDA WIKI that i can possibly test the script using the update-binary, do i have to do this on the tablet itself? i spent all afternoon trying to fix a problem that amounted to an errant quotation mark in my script (and i knew it was something like that too. too many years of non-terminated string errors to not look there first:laugh:), but the only way i could find to test it was to rezip the file and flash. any suggestions?

thank you good sir! :highfive:
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
just zip the /meta-inf folder, and flash that to test. obviously comment out any format commands as they will fail. That is what I do.

You need an editor with syntax highlighting.
[Asus Transformer TF700] psudeke:
thanks lj, getting a little more familiar with git is definitely on my radar. conceptually it makes perfect sense, but from the little poking around i've done with it, i need to get a little smarter for sure :cowboy:

totally agree with you there. on the windows side, i always use notepad++, but i haven't found a good equivalent on ubuntu yet. i'm using kate(?), or whatever the default editor is that comes with the KDE desktop. it serves it purpose, but it doesn't seem that robust. i have to keep digging around :cyclops:

Need help urgently. My phone updated from 4.1 to 4.4.2 and buttons stopped working. Everything is stuck. It was stock update. Tried even custom rom DN3 but still the same. My note 2 is from UAE.

I have tried all the method, even custom rom. Now warranty is void so cant even go to samsung service center. Cant downgrade also. i read about samsung service center downgrading to 4.1 on this forum. need help.

Seems its a common problem after update to 4.4.2. i thought i was updating to stable and did not know got trapped now. will have to replace phone. can replacing bootloader might help. menu and back buttons work in recovery screen. very strange issue.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhruvcasper:
Very strange. I went to samsung repair center and they had to replace motherboard. then camera was not working and headphone was giving issue so that was replaced. Seems all the hardware is replaced and phone firmware is at 4.3. did samsung rollback the update.

Finally back on track. lets see what next. knox back to 0

http://www.tudoemtecnologia.com/lg-optimus-l7-ii-sera-atualizado-para-android-4-4-kitkat/

On a Brazilian tech site I found the news with an official link to the lg homepage http://www.lge.com/br/celulares/lg-P714

where the upcoming 4.4 update was stated. (Unlike Samsung devices of which none are getting 4.4 updates)

Rumors according to : http://droidnews.org/lg-optimus-g-y-lg-l7-ii-recibiran-kitkat-4-4-2-el-14-de-julo/

state that the l5ii is getting 4.4 on September 14th in Brazil.

These are all facts with 99.9% certainty.

And what about the 710?
[LG Optimus L3 II, L5 II, L7 II, L9 II] hns(PL):
P714 is almost the same as the P710 but is not illuminated front keys
[LG Optimus L3 II, L5 II, L7 II, L9 II] Digdis:
Funny that the only places where this is reported are Brazilian sites. I'd expect this to be reported in a more global LG site (no offense to Brazil).
[LG Optimus L3 II, L5 II, L7 II, L9 II] ositandroid:
True. Quite a coincidence. I think it's cos lg probably focuses on Europe & us for its top end devices. Then brasil and some others for its mid rangers like l7ii (according to an earnings demographic perhaps)

And the p710/713/714/715/716 will all get the update.
[LG Optimus L3 II, L5 II, L7 II, L9 II] michaelvoliveira:
It's not simply earnings demographic. It's about a device that cost near of Galaxy S5 in Brazil.

I'm guessing the only difference between the two is the radio frequency. So I think it would most likely get updated. Also at the back of my phone it has p715/716 printed on three areas of the device. So that's another reason to celebrate :D

I'm from Brazil, and I'm using google translator ... so ignore any errors...

in groups on facebook, several people spoke to attendants lg, and is always early, was to be in July, then August, and now they say it will be in the 2nd half of this year ...

I have the P715, and here is only intended to update the P714 and P715 ...

But I think there is not much difference in the ROM for the P715 p716 unless some "drive" network, since the frequencies are different.

All I really want is the improvements that comes with KitKat. So I'm hoping the build comes sooner than later :o This is my first lg phone.

On several brazilian forums they are talking about the kitkat update, that is to be expected on this month.... and they also point to some customer/lg letters where lg responded that they will realease the update (someday on september)

Hi everyone, I was wondering if it is possible to downgrade my Moto X from AT&T running on 4.4.2 down to 4.2.2?
[Moto X Q&A] :
There's a very big risk of bricking your phone if you downgrade. Either right away, or by accidentally taking an ota after.

Some say there are ways to downgrade, but most here will just simply say... No. You can't unfortunately.

Again, you can research how to supposedly do it "safely".... but even following those directions, mistakes can happen, and boom. Paperweight.

Plus ... there's no real reason to. That I can see. ;)

[Droid RAZR M Android Development] Q9Nap:
Not sure what you're saying about ap fastboot.

As for loss of touch screen control, sounds like maybe you didn't wipe data after flashing this?

Also, if you haven't upgraded to 4.4.2 prior to flashing this, you should flash the official fxz linked in the op first. Flashing the official fxz will update everything, including bootloader and baseband, which may be necessary for everything to work properly.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] Sefirosu:
Thanks, I did it stupidly from 4.1.2

It actually helped my phone to be able to update. After doing the update to 4.4.2 it removed the ap fast boot sticky (Basically, every time the phone booted it went to ap fastboot, which I see now was a safety measure).

Going back to an reinstalling it with the phone already on 4.4.2 was key and solved all of my issues. Thanks.
