Hi all,

This might be a bit of a stretch, but is anyone able to get Grim Fandango Reloaded to work on the AFTV2? I followed the normal procedure for sideloading games (copied the .obb files to the correct directory, etc.), but the game does not launch (and returns back to the launcher). Running prerooted 5.0.5_r4.

Thanks!
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vrl2:
Grim Fandango works with ResidualVM on AFTV2

FOLLOW-UP:

The classic version of Grim Fandango runs with the current version of ResidualVM. The Android version appears to be available only through the invited beta program on the ResidualVM Android Test Google+ group. Took them about a day to approve the invitation.

[Sprint LG G4] strategicgnomer:
I'm recently new to this, just got a sprint G4 and I'm in Canada. It's supposed to be unlocked but it's not totally working, keeps trying to connect to sprint's data so I can only get 3G also can't send MMS. So I thought I'd try updating, see if that worked, it did not. I had updated to Marshmellow and it went askew and I couldn't get data at all then I downgraded to ZV6, fixed it so I could get 3G again then updated again. When ZVA came out I updated to that to see if it'd fix the issue but no luck. It's also very glitchy and bloated and tears through my battery though I've disabled most programs. So I'd love to try rooting or just the sim unlock fix or even ultrapop but I can't for the life of me figure out how to do it.

As I said, I'm new to this and it seems like a lot of great work has gone into it all but it's not exactly simple, as much as I keep bouncing around trying to get a grasp, I simply can't figure out what to do to not destroy my phone. I see that there's the low effort root, but that's for ZV5 which I can't switch to since I'm now on ZVA. I see another person said they figured out how to root ZV6 but there's no simple instructions on how to do that either.

So my questions are,

1. Is it possible to switch from ZVA to ZV6 without damage and

2. is anyone able to provide simple instructions from start to finish on how to do so and then from there to root?

I know I'm not the only one here who's got this or a similar issue and I think many people would appreciate the instructions laid out for beginners. I realize there's more to it than just a simple, do this, do that, such as hitting road blocks and such but these can be figured out. If anyone can do this I'd be happy to donate what I can, as well, it seems like a lot of people want something similar but get too intimidated with all the nomenclature and end up unable to do it. Or maybe it's just me?

Oh, and, thank you to everyone here who's done all the work sorting out this stuff for the rest of us, even if I don't understand all of it, I appreciate how much work goes into it.

I'm in a pickle, I flash CM 12.1 with arm gapps pico using Flashfire 0.27. It booted up fine! But I noticed I have no gapps installed, I opened up flashfire to try to install gapps again, it said it need a rooted device. I don't know what to do!????
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wulfie66:
CM12 has root built in, you just have to enable it in developer options or flash supersu
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZeroFG:
I activated it but SuperSU is still unable to update it's binaries and titanium backup can't get access either.

What am I missing?

EDIT: Reboot did the trick
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NightCrayon:
once its activated for ADB and Apps restart your tablet. You must restart. You dont need supersu when using cyanogonmod. Once your device is restarted open up flashfire, it should ask for root permission, then just click grant and you are good to go.

[G4] the-equinoxe:
The G4 soft-SPL is working great, and some people already have used our hard SPL for some time now.

FAQ:

What is Hard SPL?

- a custom G4 SPL patched by Olipro which let your device thing it has SuperCID (aka CID unlocked)

What is different to the Soft SPL?

-Soft SPL is temporarily, this solution is semi permanent, it will be removed by flashing an original G4 SPL.

-You don't need a separate loader in the future, just use the RUU provided in the ROM package.

Can I use it for other devices than for a G4 wizard?

G4 Wizards only, use at own risk

Usage:

-connect your device

-Start hard_SPL-G4.exe

-Push the "Check DOC" button

-> The tool now checks whether your device is truly a G4, if not, it will give you an error and stops.

-> after this a dos box pops up, and it loads the softSPL to your device, to enable hard-SPL flashing.

-> then a Rom Update Utility will start, ONLY proceed if your screen is white!

-Proceed with the upgrade, it will only take a minute.

After reboot the IPL version is : 2.21.0001 and the SPL is 2.21.olip

Now you have Hard SPL

You can flash the ROMs with the RUU in the ROM package, should you have trouble with upgrading, try Mun's RUU (thanks for the tip Boto).

So no need to downgrade before upgrade anymore.

But don't flash ROMs containing IPL/SPL.

If you got the following error:

You didn't read the thread, and you may thank mestrini for his detection tool, otherwise your device would be a brick.

Thanks to Mestrini, who made the DOC checker so that only G4 can be flashed, and G3's can't, thus saving them from certain death!

Thanks to Olipro who patched the G4 SPL

Thanks to DES and Pof, from whom I took the idea and and some of the scripts.

Thanks to SAA044 who beta tested all the sSPL and hard SPL versions, and lost a wizard in the process, but kept his head cool, and kept on testing with his brand new wizard, respect to you, and thanks my friend!

Thanks to all I didn't mention but had an input in this project.

You can download the hardSPL from here HERE or here.

[edit]26-09-'07 02:00 repacked the Hard SPL, it seems that the first package method caused some problems.[/edit]

Post Script (09th Oct. '07)

As I have mentioned before in this post:

You shouldn't try to update ROM's with IPL/SPL after HARD SPL.

BUT: If you want to update IPL/SPL for G4 after hard SPL, do as following:

-disassemble ROM with IPL/SPL of your liking

Usage: typho5.exe -x nk.nbf

-reassemble the ROM or IPL/SPL with NKnbftool.

Make shure you only use G4 IPL/SPL for your G4, those are the IPL_2 and SPL_2 files created by typho5.exe.

-copy the nk.nbf you just created to SOFT SPL Folder

-start Soft SPL and flash the IPL/SPL.

You will lose the hardSPL though!

Typho5.exe and nknbftool are available in most kitchens.

The new WST also has some nice features to strip a ROM.

[G4] saa044:
Yes come on you lazy bums, I tested the spl for all of you and bricked my 1st k-jam, I donated the first and only blocks. So if you guys expect more magic its time to give back a little. ;)
[G4] danielvelez:
Unfortunatelly I´m on windows Vista and it does not seems to work quite allright with Wizard Service Tool...

Anyway, as I get home tonight I will use my wife´s computer (if she doesn´t find me messing around again with the new cellphone...) and will try to get you another CID lock...

:)

Ok.

no need to bug my wife... Actually it seems that the CID Block downloading from Wizard Service Tool works just fine unde Windows vista. I´ve downloaded mine and have already e-mailed it to Mestrini...
[G4] the-equinoxe:
That is the spirit.

Thanks bro :)
[G4] danielvelez:
Questions:

- After hard-SSPL I´m guessing that you get your softspl flashed... so the following flashes are supposed to be also with the white screen using the default rru? or should they go to the three color screen bootloader but with another SPL version (olip one)?

- And If your IPL is different, say 2.26.0001 It will actually change to 2.21.0001?

- And does the 2.21 SPL means that you now have a G4 IPL and a G3 SPL?

- Would you be able to flash a rom that has IPL or SPL, or you should keep away from those as usual?
[G4] Olipro:
If I recall rightly, I blocked SPL flashing.
[G4] dferreira:
I only seen this thread right now. I have already the HardSPL done, will the CID Block reading still help mestrini?

Edit: I've sent him my readings ;) Sorry I didn't noticed this earlier... :o I've got an Key index 80, which he doesn't have any :)
[G4] neonkoala:
Sent key block, just curious what if all 100 keys aren't actually in the wild? Just a thought... (I already have unlocked G4 from IMEI-check so I'm not after this, I was just curious).
[G4] the-equinoxe:
If there aren't 100 in the wild than those unreleased aren't necessary ;)

Thanks for your contribution :)
[G4] boto:
heheh i already send my a long time ago...

i never understand why anyone help mestrini!!!

now you find a good way for that!!

waiting for the hard SPL!!

see you =]
[G4] the-equinoxe:
Updated first post
[G4] danielvelez:
Sorry I did not quite get it... You are saying that after using hard SPL, you won´t be able to re-flash any SPL on the phone as it get´s blocked? So if you try a rom with SPL on it you wont need to worry about it as it wont flash the spl, so impossible to brick the G4 if accidentally flashing a G3 rom?

As i understand the bricking issue comes only for flashing a g3 spl into a g4...

And also i´m still curious about the hard-spl version, with only 2.21 olip:

"olip" standing for the 0000 after the 21 meaning it still a g4 spl or meaning that you now have a working g3 spl on a g4 device?
[G4] the-equinoxe:
Be careful SPL flashing is still possible.

Soft SPL also allows spl flashing! And soft SPL is the same thing only temporary, so be carefull.

The hard SPL is a full flown G4 SPL, but marked 2.21.olip instead of 2.212.0001 so you can see that a patched SPL is on the device.
[G4] boto:
argggg i cant donwload it!!

site is full of leech!!
[G4] boto:
i dont know what hapen, but when soft spl start

the screen close and ruu dont start to proced...=/
[G4] the-equinoxe:
Lech ??

Please explain.
[G4] boto:
hehe leech, download at same time..

or link is not soooo good..

but now i donwload it...

man..can you please try to help me? everytime that i start the unlock when the soft spl start the prompt close on 20%

i always use the softspl to flash roms without problem.

_________

Ok, i think i find a solution, i extract the .exe file...

looks the temp folder cause this problem
[G4] the-equinoxe:
You can extract the hard spl exe.

We only added the doc checker to start the soft spl.
[G4] boto:
ok...

now i dont get the white screen, only a pinguim ;P like kernel boot screen

i will try again...

___

One more try and now white screen!! let see how will work...prey for me!

Result: my ruu dont find a connection....3 try...

_______________________
[G4] the-equinoxe:
If you are shure you have a G4 (to explain for everybody), you can use the nk.nbf with the original Soft SPL.

We only added the DOC checker, so G3 users are warned.
[G4] sssats:
I am trying to use Hard SPL and have an ERROR

what i must to do?

p.s. sorry for my English..)
[G4] the-equinoxe:
Hi, Welcome to XDA-developers.

Seems that cecopy.exe wasn't copied to your device or couldn't be loaded properly.

Please try and application unlock/de-Cert your device manualy (Wizard Service Tool will work great, and it has many added bonus ;) ).

Then try again, if the Hard SPL still doesn't load, you probably have a "stream-lined" or "Slim" or "thinstalled" XP-install, then you should try using another PC with full blown Win 2K or XP.

(most errors with Cecopy i have seen where due to missing parts in a small footprint XP install..).

Good luck!
[G4] sssats:
thanks

But what i must do in WST? I will prepare my PPC to HArd Spl? Or cid unlock PPC?

What option i must to use in WST?

p.s. WST only for G3? I have G4.
[G4] sssats:
On another Computer all right, thanks.
[G4] the-equinoxe:
Good to hear :)

Good luck with flashing, and remember, don't flash ROMs with IPL/SPL in it.

It could brick your device.

Lots of features in WST can be used for a G4 also.

It has a lot of usefull features!
[G4] mailforkrishna:
Rom link

Could you please provide link or source of 3.13.2.G4 rom as i want to upgrade my Wizard G4 IPL & SPL
[G4] MrHorus:
That's the exact same problem i'm having.

I'll add that i'm not a n00b - i've read, read and done some more reading but i've not had any joy. I was able to successfully flash Wizard Love about a year ago but then I got a Kaiser and done my reading here and was able to flash that successfully. I hadn't touched my Wizard until the Kaiser developed a screen fault a few weeks ago :(

It's going in for a service and I'm going to use my Wizard in the interim, but I can't live without threaded SMS in WM6.1 hehe.

I can get as far as SoftSPL going into the device and I see the Tux logo before the screen goes white, so that's all good. However, at that point ActiveSync loses the connection and will not re-establish it, so the RUU will not flash the device.

I've tried leaving it to see if it will reconnect but it does not. I've tried disconnecting, reconnecting, rebooting, all to no avail.

For this same reason I cannot flash with just SoftSPL alone either.

Where am I going wrong? :(
[G4] MrHorus:
Very very strange.

I should probably have mentioned that I was running XP SP3 as a VMWare Fusion 2 guest under OSX on my Macbook.

Yeah yeah I know, but i've never had problems flashing whilst running an XP VM under VMWare Workstation on Vista :)

Either was I tried it on a physical machine in work this morning and HardSPL went onto the device first time hehe.
[G4] mestrini:
Exactly! :) All minimal info must be provided so that others with more experience (or same) can judge the situation better (and not stay thinking about it while wifes speaks :p).

Others have never flashed with M$ OSes within VM under *nixes so i guess your are more fortunate.

Glad you solved and a Wizard is always a good backup device ;)

cheers
[G4] MrHorus:
But you do get some peace and quiet that way ;)

I don't know if it's perhaps because VMWare Workstation is a more mature product compared to Fusion, but I would be interested to research this more.

The main reason I needed VMWare in the first place is due to running Vista 64bit and obviously, it doesn't like some of the 32bit tools. VMWare Workstation worked a charm for me.
[G4] CyberianIce:
I know facts about G4 SuperCID, but what this guy think when say "Both the methods, SoftSPL and HardSPL are just TEMPORARY work arounds."

Temporary? HardSPL?? :confused:
[G4] mestrini:
When it's taken off the context it's obvious that doesn't seem correct but he clearly explains the bootloaders patching methods.

Of course the HardSPL stays after a hard-reset or flashing a new ROM but the truth is that the CID is still locked. The temporary term means that just by reflashing original (not patched) bootloaders you get the phone back to the way it was, whereas if you truly CID unlock it (with IMEI-check tool) you can never get it back to the way it was.

PS:

"this guy" has more than a thousand posts and never answered in an arrogant manner to anyone (that i've seen) and has helped hundreds of members by sharing what he learned by spending may hours here. a little respect wouldn't hurt
[G4] CyberianIce:
Sorry, I did not wish to sound arrogant in my posts, but I did not understood meaning of word "temporary work arounds", my English is weak, and Google Translate was to... If I listen that guy, I should never flash my Wizard... So, HardSPL can be fu**d up only if IPL and SPL? If I understood now, HardSPL remain in memory until i do not touch IPL/SPL? Another question: hard restart? How I can apply hard restart, and how this affect on phone memory (IPL, SPL, OS, Radio, HTC Logo and Bootscreen)? What will be deleted/restored, etc?
[G4] mestrini:
Saying HardSPL is the same as saying "modified IPL/SPL" which are flashed to the respective areas of the DOC chip. This means that whenever the phone boots it boots normally but if you're about to flash a new ROM (nk.nbf without IPL/SPL) the RUU is tricked to think the phone is CID unlocked thus allowing the procedure to continue. Since the HardSPL files were indeed written to the flash chip (DOC) they stay there forever or until you decide to overwrite them with original ones (not patched).

A Hard-reset can be applied via hardware by using the stylus pen and a combination of hardware keys, via SW by using the option present in Windows Mobile or by using RAPI tools like WST which has a button to perform resets.

A Hard-reset won't touch any area of your phone except for the user area (UA) which is "formatted". This means that all the IPL/SPL, etc, will remain the same and all the personal data plus the installed programs will be erased and ROM back to its original condition

cheers

Hi all,

First time poster, please excuse my ignorance

I have a WIZA200 and est that its a G4 (omg i cant believe how many people have trouble doing this!)

I just bought this second hand as a play around phone. Its T-Mobile branded and has their crap all over the phone, I cant install alot of apps or edit certain connection settings.

Am I on the right track in regards to "flashing" the phones ROM?

Or should I just stick to my networking skills and let a company do this shizzle for me?? I'm prepared to give it a go and I'm not a dumbass so please help out if you can (there are not too many places in little old New Zealand that unlock phones etc)

Btw - the phone installs a whole lot of crap once being hard reset, If i could only stop it from doing that I'm sure it would be ok.

Cheers in advance.

If U do not wish to install this crap that runs on first boot from extended ROM, just soft-reset your wizard when notified that autorun will start in 3 secs and that's all.
