[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Extraze:
I recently got an HTC Raider (Bell) and was following the steps to Root the device and got stuck...

was following this : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1416836

the phone was all stock, stock rom, was able to unlock the bootloader via HTC website, did the Wire Trick to S-Off the device but when i got to step 3 "Update the HBOOT (Juopunutbear)" i got an error when trying to "fastboot flash zip jb_hboot.zip" using WCXJB ROOT PACK ... im at work now and cant remember the exact wording of the error, but it Fails (will update tonight with the exact error message).

i read around and people seemed to say that when doing the wire-trick the HBOOT was already being updated and people said it wasnt required, so i went ahead and followed the next steps (Perm-Root) which did work, then i went and tried to load a custom Rom + Gapps and they never worked (either they crashed 5 seconds after boot or just crash at the HTC boot screen and never work)

i can still access Recovery, etc ... i just cant flash any roms, and stupid me i erased my backup on the SDCARD (wiped the SDCARD so i lost my nand backup... i thought the backup was on the internal phone memory)... :(

any idea ???

thanks for your time, I apreciate it.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Extraze:
So.. the error I get when trying to update the HBOOT (step 3 of the Superguide) is :

sending 'zip' (379KB) ... OKAY

writing 'zip'... INFOzip header checking...

INFOzip info parsing...

INFOchecking model ID...

FAILED (remote: 41 model id check fail)

finished. total time : 2.110s.

please help
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
I answered this yesterday...

Jbhboot.zip is not flashable...

Unzip and apply accordingly...

And please... Read the question and answer thread before starting new
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Extraze:
thanks, but it did flash, and i did read, i read for about 20 hours on this forum, if not more.

here's how i fixed it, hopefuly this can help others...

when i got the "remote: 41 model id check fail" i found a post hidden in here telling to change the phone's CID by typing "fastboot oem writecid 11111111" this worked and i was able to continue with the steps... it did not cure my booting issue, i was still stuck at the white HTC screen... so i locked the device back, got a basic AT&T RUU (my phone was a Bell, so i dont think it matters which one you use) and wiped everything (SD card, cache, data, etc) ...

this solved my non-bootable issue ... so i went at it again, unlocked the phone via HTC's website, re-install a recovery, then the ROM i wanted.

I hope this can save someone a couple of hours of headaches and searches :)

-Do Not Mirror our files without talking to us. We can do that ourselves should we desire to.-​

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why isn't there XXXXXXX feature.

A: Shoot us a Suggestion if you want to see something added. While we are not going to promise to implement, we will always look into it

Q: But CM and all the others have..

A: ROM developers, including CM, build something they want to use. The ROM dev that includes something they won't run implies less than 100% effort to ensure it does work. As a team, we have similar goals and objectives. If XYZ ROM has a feature you want, and we don't (or don't want), feel free to use XYZ ROM, or build your own custom version of Octo-Kat

ADB Logcat tutorial here: How to create a logcat log

Bugs:

Let us know if you run into bugs. Get Syslog from the Android Market, if you don't already have it. No logs and we can only try to recreate the event off of vague descriptions. Please also include what you were doing when it FCed or failed. Logs can be emailed to: teamoctos@gmail.com

Basic Instructions:

Download ROM .zip file

Reboot to Recovery (Note: Use Three-Finger or adb reboot recovery - ROM Manager or similar software is NOT supported)

--- TWRP is the ONLY recovery Team OctOs uses - We do not support flashing on CWM ---

Flash ROM and GApps .zip files

Reboot

A Note about the Team OctOs GApps

We in Team OctOs believe in choices. We believe in leaving the fundamental decisions about your phone to you.

In that spirit, Team OctOs gives you options for your GApps experiences. While any GApps package should work, we offer you the choice of using some of the same GApps packages that we use ourselves, and leave the choice up to you.

First :p (Always wanted to do that)

Features in the OP are blank. I assume it's the same three points as on the homepage?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ps000000:
I am downloading ... report soon .!!! :silly:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] uishido:
can't flash with TWRP. "some symlinks failed" :rolleyes:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] razrlover:
It works after wiping go to home the uncheck system under mount options.

Same as reboot recovery after wiping then install. 0 issues either way;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Koopa777:
I see AOSP everywhere, I assume no CAF bits to be found? Also F2FS and SaberMod...sweet!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] travperk:
Thank you Dev Grom!!! :D

Im gonna slam this NEW OCTO crack into my phone arm !!

Thank you for supplying only the finest!! :D

Edit: just slammed it.. awwww maaan, that feels gouda!!

Love the ROM !!! Great fun clean high ! Fast and silky !
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] uishido:
nice and fast rom so far, solid! :D

some little things I noticed:

- settings fc when 'Download Gapps' is selected

- nearby places search in dialer isn't working and when I check App ops it says Location (Never Used)

apart from that: great rom!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] spevil07:
Is this Rom ART compatible?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] uishido:
runs fine on ART for me
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DiamondBond:
Sweet will test out ASAP :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] SOHKis:
Thanks for the feedback & glad you guys are liking it.!

I believe those 2 issues are known and currently being looked at, I think the gapps download option will be removed in the near future.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Grommish:
The Download GApps is part of the new (yet to be working) OTA system. Yes, it'll FC for now :)

We've had reports of Forward/Reverse lookup in the dialer also not working, this appears to have started with the jump to 4.4.4 - We are looking into it. Thank you for the reports!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Treken:
Just wanted to welcome our new users and am glad we can offer you our ROM. Enjoy!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] aheeejd:
Maybe I did something wrong not sure, at first I was hesitant cause I use philz recovery, & op in red letters says only use twrp, anyway, I flashed twrp image, full wipe in twtp & flashed rom, gapps, rebooted & started to set up. I looked inside the zip before I flashed to see if theme chooser was there, it was. But once the rom booted up & I started setting up, no theme chooser. I could see it if I went to settings, apps, all. What gives? Any ideas.

it's in tentacles along with all other customization, click on 'OctOS build date' from the system settings > about phone, and then 'Themes' :good:

i use philz myself & it works just fine

Getting a soft reboot when I Chromecast youtube. I can cast the video but as soon as I set the phone down it reboots. Stock octo-kat. Tried fuax-kernal same issue. Rom related
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] simms22:
source needs to be add to the xda page as well
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Circaflex:
source for what? kernel is default google how is this any different than the miui threads where no source is posted and im almost positive miui modifies the kernel yet no one seems to care about those builds?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] simms22:
well, considering its an "original" rom since its in the original threads(not android development) i assumed it would have some kernel work done. but maybe im wrong there, if theres absolutely no kernel work, then it doesnt need source. which leads me to another question.. is this an "original" rom as it appears to be based on broodplank1337's work?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Circaflex:
rather than attempting to be a mod, why not just use the report button and let a mod know it needs a source if you feel that way or if it isn't original development?

I am not trying to be a **** either, I am sure I came across as one but enjoy your insight and posts, as I used to pop into threads and state the same about source, but found it was much easier and more polite to just report it rather than jump into the thread.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] simms22:
first off, im not attempting. secondly, i legally have to ask for source first. then some time is given to provide source. then if source isnt provided. that's when i report a thread for no source. i cant report it for not having source if i never asked.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Circaflex:
sure sounds like you were/are

but either way he only needs to link you to google kernel source, rom can be kept closed and if you really want him to add the link to google kernel source I am sure he will. I just find it odd you are often seen in threads asking for source just to be "that guy" but w/e

anyway source was linked to on aug 5th, if you are just stirring this up because it isn't listed in OP then that's on you but OP commented that source is found here https://github.com/Octo-Kat/
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] simms22:
if no kernel changes were made, no source needs to be made. if no changes were made to the rom, no source needed. if any open source code has been changed, it needs source. the rom can be closed if it uses all original code, not open source.

what i cant figure out is why the big fight from you? by reading the op, i see you guys are fans of open source and the actual work. but so you know, open sorce isnt open source until you provide the source, so others can build it and on top of it. and it seems as its provided in that link, why fight about posting it on xda as well? and i do act in the "that guy" position often. its because i love the open source community.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Circaflex:
im not an affiliate of octos so my thoughts/opinion/comments do not reflect their belifes. the only reason we "fought" as you put it is because you cried for source when its already been posted, whether they include in OP is up to them buts its available in the thread, maybe the glasses need some cleaning? I dunno but it is there
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] simms22:
ok, i see. you are just fighting me just to fight me. i understand, very mature. no, i didnt see that you(not them) posted source in the 3rd page of the thread.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] albundy2010:
No matter what you do to the ROM source you don't have to post / release the source for it.

AOSP is NOT a GPL.

People open source their roms because they want to. They don't have to.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Shanks:
Finally someone said something to simms22, he's always acting as moderator and many people tired of him(including me), thanks all who are against him
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] albundy2010:
Ummm. It's not about being against anybody. Smh.

It's about spreading correct information. If somebody is wrong, correct it. It is a not attack on somebody to correct something. Or standing up to somebody.

I actually like when I do say something wrong and or stupid and somebody corrects it. It's called learning. I'd rather be corrected than to keep repeating something that isn't true.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] razrlover:
That's a good word!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Jimlarck:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't you need to post kernel source? I know ROM source isn't necessary though.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] theesotericone:
You're not wrong.

http://www.xda-developers.com/android/xda-developers-and-the-gpl/
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] albundy2010:
You have to post kernel source IF it's a custom kernel. If you use the stock kernel with no modifications at all you don't need to post the source. The source is already available since it's unmodified in any way.

Basically saying it's stock kernel is enough. But if it isn't enough for somebody a link to the stock kernel source would cover it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] theesotericone:
It's a fine line about whether or not you have to link the stock source. I've seen mods on a couple of occasions ask for it to be posted though.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Jimlarck:
Where does it say it uses a stock kernel? I can't find it on the OP
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] albundy2010:
It doesn't. You can ask if it is. I believe somebody already did ask if it has stock kernel. I might be mistaking though.

And now that people have asked for it and a mod it needs to be posted / linked to.

There are occasions where stock source would need to be posted. Like this one when people start to dispute it and ask for it. Others where it's stated that it's stock. The about phone shows stock. The tool chain used is stock. When it's not even a compiled from source rom then it probably won't be

In the past xda has said if it's a ROM with stock device kernel it didn't need to be linked. Other post from xda I see says it needs to be linked if you do.

Examples. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1650721

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2645321

So who knows.

Either way the mod team has notified the OP and it will be taken care of.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Shanks:
Sorry man, it's just that i have seen sims22 doing the same almost on every single thread, i don't post too often but I'm always reading
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Jimlarck:
Okay, just hope the OP got that taken care of. Would suck to lose Octa-Kat from XDA. Remember it on some past Samsung devices and it was always a pleasant experience.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] razrlover:

I am not a team member just tired of pages of nothing, sorry no disrespect to xda or patrons. I just used google to search Is this all thats needed. Thanks
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Grommish:
We have always operated under GPLv2, which states Source code only needs to be posted if sending out a finalized executable.

That being said, we ALSO have always posted our license, Github link, etc under our "License" section of our website (http://www.teamoctos.com/license/) I apologize to those who want to scream, but not actually look. You can lead a horse to water, but only beat them so much.

GPLv2 request, under section 3a,

Which we have, as indicated by the license on our website. As we aren't hosting on XDA (and we are on the website), the link to the code goes there, and not here. I've updated the OP to point to our license for those who can't be bothered to actually look.

Its also on our ProjectDB Profile folks. The fact we have pages of this means the trolls are taking over.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Jimlarck:
EDIT: Agree with OP, good job.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] simms22:
if the kernel hasnt been changed at all, source doesnt have to be listed at all, its only when changes are made to it. i said rom as well, where i was wrong.

---------- Post added at 05:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:41 PM ----------

not, not every single thread. only where source is missing. and ive only asked 5 ops this past 18 months. 4 ops of which i became friends with.

---------- Post added at 05:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:43 PM ----------

works for me, thank you.

---------- Post added at 05:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:45 PM ----------

again, i am not attacking the rom or its development.. im sure the rom is good and i personally do not know the developer. im protecting open source and what it stands for.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] MidnightDevil:
I'm pretty sure we can all get along a lot better then the last few pages..I'm also sure as we are a bunch of cool awesome guys and we all make mistakes or lack better words which can create disagreement, what matters is that in the end we are all here for the same. A good, healthy community with respect for each others work and person. Now group hug and lets all be mates. I don't like seeing a bunch of cool dudes disagreeing in harsh ways and not cool words being shared. We can do better and we will do better.

---------- Post added at 04:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:20 AM ----------

Simms is a great guy, he also shares a lot, I'm sure his purpose was with the pure intention to make things right in order for this thread to prevail and keep existing allowing the Op to continue to share is fantastic work.
