If that doesn't work, i'd recommend this:

1. Copy everything from your SDcard to your computer.

2. FORMAT your sd card. (It sounds like it's set up for FAT, but not FAT32 which is what it needs to be, which could cause flashing issues.)

3. Put everything back on your SD card.

4. Re-Root with root/clockwork and REDIRECTOR.

5. Re-Flash VIPERrom and post results :).

Hope that helps.

getting root back

I lost root following the install of the viper rom 4.0.2a like some of you also did. I got it back by simply using the "one click method" here on the boards. By doing this though i did lose the custom clockwork .2 . Every time i reapply the "1. Flash first.zip" to get back to the cw .2 i re-lose my root. So if i need to flash a new zip file in recovery and maintain root i follow these steps

1: flash "1. Flash first.zip"

2. reboot recovery from advanced setting in cw recovery

3. Flash zip i want applied to rom (for example rodd.2bupdate6.zip)

4. reboot system from cw recovery

5. one click root method.

Takes a little extra time, but well worth it for this rom. Thanks viper team.

If anyone knows of a different method please chime in. Im all ears.
[Epic 4G Android Development] konaman:
No problem. I'm glad you consider my post helpful! Thanks.

I lost root as well when I went to .2b and I did the 1 click root and got it back. Now I'm good to go and this rom is nuts! I'm loving it!
[Epic 4G Android Development] NeeceeBabe:
I dont see Added Modded XDA App Into /Data/App/ in my app drawer.. am I suppose too? Kind of a noob question lol.. But also my buttons on my pull down didn't change either...

Not why sure people are losing root going to .2b, I just did and didn't.

Ok, I cant figure this: I grabbed a Wifi Tether from Roddericks link, it is telling me to clear space first and I have plenty of space. Any ideas? (When I try to install)

[Epic 4G Android Development] ontzilla:
:( nope still goes to blue CWM im not sure whats going on... i format the sd card to fat32, went and restored with odin to factory settings, then one click root, then odin again for the dk28 pit and modem, had nothing else on the sd card and added the 4 viper 4.0.2a zips and then started with frist zip then followed with advanced>reboot recovery and it still comes back with the blue CWM... im soo lost :(

NEW VERSION OF VIPERSTORE v2.0

** just like always your viperstore should notify you that an update is available **

CHANGELOG -

- added a new Search feature to enable users to find exactly what they're looking for, use SEARCH button on main page or use search button on phone to search the content from the main page. -- category searches coming in next release.

- added Evo and Epic options for when we release the Evo content ( over the next few days ).

- changed where the data is pulled from again to a more secure location.

- optimized the way data is collected and displayed, switching views should take less than a second now, including searches ( other than selecting evo / epic )

Team Viper, I pretty much tried all of the Wifi Tethers from the link. They all fail at 1. Starting Access Point and 2. Activating Wifi Interface. Not complaining. Just giving you the results I got.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:

[Epic 4G Android Development] blu9987:
odd but figured i'd mention it...for ppl on CWM3

Disclaimer: works for me idk if it will for you

1. get the one click ext4 1.3 zip and unzip it to desktop (not going to use the bat just adb)

2. open cmd prompt and change directories to the folder with the adb.exe (cd C:\Users\name\Desktop\One.click.blahblah) <-- tip hit tab to autofinish a folder name

3. type adb reboot recovery

4. after a few seconds it should reboot into CWM v2.5.1.2 (if it boots you into 2.5.1.0 install step 1 from the ops post now and advanced/reboot recovery (giving you 2.5.1.2)

5. Wipe data/cache

6. Install Viperrom apocalypse zip (step 3 from OP)

7. Install Step 4 from OP (kernal)

8. reboot

9. adb back into CWM, go to advanced/reboot recovery, and Install the 4.0.2b update

10(optional). Use adb to reboot back into CWM and apply mammons ext4 fix (to turn off journaling) :P.

Note: the 3-finger method will still bring up CWM 3.0.0.5, so if you want to install any older .zip files that dont use edify scripts, adb into recovery ;)

Note #2: If you are a fan of the samsung keyboard put the apk on sdcard and do this (i would attach the apk but idk rules on that)

adb shell

cat /sdcard/AxT9IME.apk > /system/app/AxT9IME.apk

Note #3: If you want all the stock apks flash the dk28 deodexed rom and do

adb pull /system/app/ C:\Phonedump\

If someone could be so kind to shoot me a link I lost recovery all together and can’t (one click/ clockwork) “no device found” and I ride the wave of the stall (Farctoryfs.Fs) for hours on end; still got download and thats it. And when I flash any combination of times it mostly just fails! Before I use up my warranty and suddenly misplace my phone is there any hope.

Problems in 4.02a/b

Hey Team Viper,

Just thought I'd report problems I've seen in both the 4.02a and the newer "b" version:

1. Wi-Fi Tether, whether the one from the Viper Store (2.05 Pre15) or the one posted here (2.0.5.apk) fails to start, issues error "Unable to start tethering, please try again." If I try to look at the log file it errors-out saying "Unable to open log file. File does not exist!"

2. Unable to update PRL. Select "Update PRL" my 3G icon immediately disappears and then I get the "Please Wait" and the rotating icon and then the error "An error occurred while trying to update your PRL. Please Try again later. Error: Internal Error."

3. Unable to update Profile. Select "Update Profile" and my 3G icon immediately disappears and then I get the "Please Wait" and the rotating icon and then the error "Your Profile could not be updated at this time. Please try again later. Error: Internal error."

Otherwise great ROM but the inability to update my PRL does worry me a bit since I'm not in a strong Sprint coverage area.

Thanks!

this is how i solved it.

MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE

AFTERLIFE 4.0.1 AND

the 4 APOCALYPSE 4.0.2a & 4.0.2b ZIP FILES

ON YOUR SD CARD BEFORE YOU BEGIN

1) stock flash via odin

2) one click root exploit

3) power off phone

4) boot in clockwork mod (hold down volume button, camera button and power button untill you see the black screen with the green letters)

5) data factory reset 3 times, wipe cache partition 3 times, wipe dalvik cache 3 times

6) install zip from sd card

7) choose zip from sd card

8) flash afterlife

9) reboot

10) power down

11) reboot in clockwork mod

12) follow the instructions on flashing Apocalypse 2a

13) power down

14) follow instructions on flashing Apocalypse 2b

it worked for me.

Thank you!

I will say that 4.0.2b was a GREAT surprise! It fixed the issues I had in the 4.0.2a release.

Issue:

- Wireless tether says that it can not start at this time.

Other than that, I did not see anything else for now. On a VERY minor note, I didn't see the new wallpaper anywhere and was missing 2 of the 4 ringtones, hehe :)

hi, has anyone let their phone battery die on .2b yet? i did the .2b update, and had to re-root, but it seemed to work fine. i went to sleep with my phone on, and it died during the night. so i plug it in and let it charge for a bit, and turn it on, and the .2b animation and logo does come on, but then i see the setup wizard, like i'm sigining into my Google acct.! and even worse, it's force closing over and over, along with every app i have..... just an endless string of force close notices. i can't even power down because another force close notice pops up immediately.... only way to power down is yank the battery.

so i'm wondering what to do next. maybe boot into recovery and reflash 4.0.2a then update to .2b.... or maybe just start all over with odin, etc.

thanks in advance for any input. i won't be able to try anything until later this afternoon.

Doesn't work for CWM 3.0.0.2 through adb reboot recovery or for 3.0.0.5 through the 3 finger grip, does the new cwm not work with this rom install ?
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
You probably need to reflash... I added a new undervolt file to b and I don't think you can flash on top of it... ill put that in the op then.. but id reflash
[Epic 4G Android Development] NetFlux:
I believe this because your phone shutdown without writing everything to the system. Skip the setup and uninstall and reinstall all the force closing apps and it will work fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] venumx:
exactly what you need to do. just uninstall / reinstall they will work fine. you can reflash if you dont feel like doing that.

Allright, I'm here to save you some time [hopefully].

After a lot of nitpicking, and waiting for my answer, and searching around the forums, I followed the steps below to get everything up and BUTTER.

Now, I was waiting so I wouldn't "waste" time starting from scratch...but if I had just started from ground zero, I would have saved oodles of time. So hopefully this helps. All of this has already been posted in some form or another, this is just a compilation.

Whether or not an "official" wiki is put together, is up to the Viper team. I think BladeMonkey is going to head up an *unofficial wiki* for, and we'll go from there. I'd personally prefer not to bog the Viper team down, and detract from their development, so a user-driven wiki (supposed to be that way aye?) that is approved by the Viper team might be the best way to go.

We don't want any joe schmoe putting crap up, but it would be useful to gather things as new versions/fixes/mods arrive.

Lost Root as well: That's why Wi-Fi Tether fails!

Hey guys,

I was having problems starting Wi-Fi Tether after applying the new "b" version. Someone suggested using Barnacle's Wi-Fi Tether from Market so I downloaded it and it too failed but this time the error message told the whole story: the app failed because it attempted to get SU permissions - so I lost root without even realizing it when I applied the "b" update! I can follow this gentleman's suggestion (shown in the quote above) but what a total PIA to have to re-root every single time I want to flash a zip! Arrrgghh! Of course the other option is to ODIN back and start all over but who wants to go through all of _that_ again, especially with no guarantee that flashing the "b" update won't result in losing root again!? Ugh!

Hey BT and Team Viper can you guys include a+b in a new "c" version that doesn't break root? I love your stuff but the "b" update really screwed things up (at least for me).

Thanks!

Hey just wondering if any one else had this problem: I flashed 4.0.2a had the typcial FC for the screenshot but not a big deal. Everything else was working fine. Then when I pulled by battery out to put my other charged battery in the phone reset all the setting example: launcher, handcent customization, but my text and contact where still there but when i tried to click on an app i installed it would FC it. It would FC everything so I then went back in and tried to reflash .zip 3 & 4 and it would error out in CWR and then would not boot past the Sammy boot screen. I had to relash back to DK05 and then flash DK28 again. Cuz when i tried to just reflash DK28 it would boot back into CWM and give me an error. Any ideas what i did?

wiki update

I copied and pasted it in the wiki, but not sure where to put that. It looks like the wiki is seriously limited, i'm going to try a few others since i dont like how this one is generally structured.

Is there anyone on the viper team besides BT and rodderick? that way i can send the link to them before releasing to the general mass?

most importantly i think we need a skeleton/map/structure for the wiki, and i'm not sure which way is best. i think any structure that is logical to the viper team will be most efficient, so if anyone from the viper team can either post a basic structure or PM that would help out a lot.

So far i have something like this (-- denotes subsections)

Frontpage

--Disclaimers

--Noob to Pro

--Rom Installations

--Troubleshooting

PS: If anyone wants to have a post put into the wiki please post "Please Wiki this" with the text or post link in your post. i will do my best to save that for later use. Also, the noob to pro page is where i compile FAQs, Primers, and basic terms. if you guys have things you want to have explained and added to the section put it in your "Please Wiki This". Dont worry about feeling/looking stupid, i'm about the noobiest person in the world, hell, it took me 1 hour to figured out what CWM (ClockWorkMod) stood for.

Yogi, I had this problem before where the apps were trying to install at the same time as I was trying to complete setup wizard so it just kept trying to sign in. I ended up having to start over as far as my apps went. I used AppBack and saved a list of my apps. I flashed the rom by itsself and it installed pretty quickly then I went to appback and reinstalled my apps. This was not with Afterlife though it was Trinity. I am not sure if I am fully understanding your question but if so, I hope that may give you an idea why setup wizard wont finish

any1 who wants to help with the wiki get with blademonkey and meatloaf. the wiki is for you guys to maintain :P TeamViper will help with it of course but you guys can keep it more up to date than we can. as for team members BThomas22x, VenumX, myself (Rodderik), and we haven't seen sniper in a while. Also a suggestion is to get with bampf846 since he has done so much hard work to get the FAQ started and keep it up to date in the OP.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Rodderik:
look in post 3 of this thread...i've had all the dk28 stock apps there for a long time
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
A Good article for the Wiki would be to outline which hacks/mods/apps etc are already baked into each version of VIPERrom and which aren't. The release notes are very handy, but I seam to remember quite a bit of clarification somewhere in the thousands of posts we've aggregated ;)

Is the governer killer cooked in? It is listed under the 4.0.1 release notes, but I'm not sure if that indicates that it was added to the store, or part of the ROM, since there are still notes and disclaimers in Post 1 about installing the fix.

Also, is a2sd cooked inyo 4.0.2? Says so in release notes, but Post 1 also indicates that ap2d files were disabled for compatibility reasons.

Not trying to point fingers, I understand that it's hard to update all the little tidbits of info...that's the push to get us a wiki.

Maybe if one of the team could indicate the only mods/hacks/etc that are left to play with that aren't included in 4.0.2b, that would be sweet, and we'll wiki that action.

As far as the wiki, I think we should focus on the most up to date release first, and then we can got historical if we want, but I imagine we'll have a new release before we know it =D
