[ROM]FRF91 AOSP Fission - Beta II

RC 1 can now be found HERE

Here is a mirror
How to get back to stock if you are having issues:
1. You will need to flash a sbf, you can find guides here for Windows and here for Linux.
2. Reboot recovery by pressing X on the keyboard and turning it on
3. Press the search key so a menu pops up
4. Navigate to wipe data with the volume keys. Select with the camera button.
5. Then navigate to reboot with the volume keys and select with the camera key.
You are back to stock and you can root!
The File Manager was included in this rom so you are able to install the Bootstrap application so you can restore a back up or flash a different rom. Wipe your data after this.

Sweet, i am so excited for this. Gonna install it as soon as I get a chance, downloading now. I can't wait to see if you guys figure out custom kernels
Sent from my DROID2 using XDA App

I'm real curious to hear what you guys found that will allow custom kernels on this phone. I already read over what birdman and nenolod were trying and it seems they threw in the towel. I read some other posts on droidforums about initiating essentially a second boot second to trick the phone into loading a custom kernel, but nothing more on that topic. Really curious to see how you might be able to implement this

Nice work guys. I will probably give this a try this weekend.
I too would like to hear your theory on how to get a new kernel on the phone. Not in a hurry to see it happen, but just curious to hear the underlying theory.
Though, I do understand if you are waiting to get it released before sharing. Just don't forget to let the community know when/if you get it worked out. It will open a lot of doors for some of these rom cookers around here, and rom cookers of the future.

and just installed it, sans computer intervention (thank god nothing went wrong or I'd be SOL for 5 hours lol, im at work)
mounted, wiped cache/data, remounted, installed, remounted, and wiped cache/data again just to be safe
now I'm waiting for it to restore all my apps and stuff so I can get everything reconfigured and have a glorious blur free phone! thank you so much devs, this is fantastic

Hey guys, awesome ROM! Very stable so far!
One thing I noticed: The "Car Home" application shows up in Android Market, but the update fails when attempting to apply it. Not sure what the cause of this is just yet. If I can glean more information from my own testing, will let you know.
Thanks again for the work you've put into this!

I am not sure why that happens, but if you really want the new one from market, you can just remove it from /system/app and then it will install fine from market. I have had that issue with other apps before. Honestly, with a lot of these apps in the market now, there really isn't much need to include them in the rom.

Seems to work pretty well. Got stuck in a boot loop because I didn't wipe my data, so I rebooted recovery and wiped it. Problem solved.
The only problem I'm having is that I can't get Backup Assistant to work, so I can't restore my phone numbers.
I downloaded the stock app rar, and tried doing an ADB install for BackupAssistanceClient and BuaContactAdapter, but I get "Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_DEXOPT]".
I tried copying over BuaContactAdapter.apk and BackupAssistanceClient.apk manually (to /system/app) and setting permissions, but that doesn't seem to do anything.
Any ideas?

Export your contacts from the verizon website and then take that file and import it into gmail and sync your contatcs with gmail. Then, it doesn't matter which rom you install you'll have your contacts.

Here's what I did with another ROM. Go to VZW with your pc. Navigate to contacts. Export contact list as Outlook CSV. Go to your gmail acct and import the CSV. Sync phone contacts to gmail. Important to do the outlook export though. Regular CSV doesn't populate gmail contacts properly.

Just a quick question. If and when we flash this, are we still rooted? If so, can I just install bootstrap and reboot recovery and restore? Or do i have to do the whole root process again like if it was an original phone from store?

one thing with the bootloader i remember when i first got my eris was people on the fourms would keep emailing htc for the bootloader keys because it was hard to crack and htc gave them up ... maybe if we flood moto with emails and stuff they'll loosen up like htc

DL'ing now. If you guys want another mirror let me know.

Yes, it comes with root. No, you do not want to restore. Restoring will bring you back to the backup you created. This rom comes with Superuser.apk (root) no need to re-root.

I seem to remember the alpha thread saying not to flash themes over this....but don't think it was mentioned this go round....still the case? (assume so). Figured it was worth noting in the first post if that's the case.
Also....I just installed this, and am also stuck unable to get it programmed.
First time it started the music and then got a failed message. Since then I don't even get the music, and after 20 seconds or so I just get a "Please enter the # you're calling about" message and if entered, it just tries to transfer me to cust service.

[Q] Changing Primary Email Acccout?

i own a rooted epic 4g and my primary gmail account password got changed. now ive lost access to the android marketplace.
i looked around online and the only solution ive seen is to 'factory data reset'. i dont want to reset my phone, though. ive also tried going to my sync list and deleting my primary gmail but it wont let me.
does anyone know of an easier solution? if not, i suppose ill just do a nand backup, reset my phone, and then nand restore everything. or will that not even work?
please help!
Sent via the Matrix

bump for answer.
Sent via the Matrix

bump again.
update. i went ahead and did a nand backup, rebooted, factory reset, rebooted, input new gmail accound info in wizard, and then restored data. when i rebooted after that, it was still stuck on my last email. so that didnt work. im getting tired of this. someone please help.
Sent via the Matrix

Add a second account through Accounts & Sync, then delete the first account.
Or, when you restore (I'm assuming through Titanium Backup), don't restore system apps/data, just user apps.
Couldn't you just reset your Gmail password? Then, open the Gmail app - it should ask you for your password - and input your new password.
(from... Evo/MIUI/Tapatalk)

i did add the second account but when i go to delete my original email account, it says i cant delete it.
no, ive always used just the basic nand backup and restore. and i cant access the app store to download titanium because i need an functioning email account to do it.
yes, i tried to restore my password but apparently i didnt provide enough accurate information. i could only answer a select few questions i actually knew.

Go to Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications
Find junk with Google in its name, click on it, choose clear data. Wash, rinse, repeat until done.

Here's a link to Titanium Backup from my Dropbox: http://db.tt/K2lwLwm
Download & install it. Then, backup all user apps and data. If you've already done a nandroid backup, just do a factory reset or go into recovery and wipe & flash a new rom.
When the rom boots, put in your other Gmail account that you know the password for and that'll be your new primary Gmail account. You can then restore your apps with Titanium Backup.
(from... Evo/MIUI/Tapatalk)

just curious, will this delete all my numbers? i should write them all down just in case, though.
Sent via the Matrix

if your numbers are backed up and visible in your gmail contacts, you should be fine.

[Q] Google Talk Authentication Failed

I'm getting the google talk authentication failed error on my phone and I can't seem to resolve it, google talk works fine on my desk top. I've tried going into flight mode and using wifi to log into google talk that didn't help. This is preventing me from downloading apps, how do I fix it? I've also tried a factory reset, a full unbrick, nothing fixes it.

that's really weird because this JUST happened to me today. SO FRUSTRATING! I did a factory restore/data wipe and that fixed it. Try that.

Are you fixed?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997R using Tapatalk

I'm having this problem too, followed GTG's unbrick guide to set it back to factory and, getting emails, txt, and phone calls. web works too. connected to wifi, but getting the authentication failed notice and cannot download anything from the market.

Go into tge stock recovery after you use unbrick. Do that by holding both volume keys down then press the power button. After that, wipe cache and user data.

Perform a factory data reset and you'll be good. Same thing happened to me.

It wont let me install the app you suggested.

I just stumbled across this thread because I was getting the same error on a Mytouch 3G slide and I found a way to fix it. all I had to do was force the phone to authenticate thru wifi and not the cell network once, then I was able to authenticate successfully the regular way after that. the way I did it on my phone was to remove the sim, but on a CDMA phone like yours you could try to activate airplane mode (settings>Wireless & networks), then turn on wifi and connect to a working wifi connection, log into the google talk app, then disable airplane mode.

How I fixed this on a rooted Droid X (should work for most Android phones)
Again, must be rooted
Rename /data/system/accounts.db to /data/system/accounts.db.bak
Soft Reset phone
Go to Settings -> Accounts
Backup Assistant took a few seconds to appear on my phone
Click on Add Account
Add the Google account that is failing to authenticate
After going through all of the add account screens, go back and rename the /data/system/accounts.db to /data/system/accounts.db.reset (or possibly just remove the file)
Rename /data/system/accounts.db.bak to /data/system/accounts.db
Soft Reset the phone again
If you go to Settings ->Accounts after the reset, wait about 10+ seconds for the accounts that you previously had to show.

The only way to "fix" google talk authentication failure is to do a factory reset from the phone...not cwm...this happens often with gtg unbrick with odin...if u use odin to go to stock dont use the pit..just pda and phone and you wont have this prob...theres a prob with the pit for some reason...

After cloning a samsung gio s5660 through a CWM backup I started experiencing the same issue. Heres What REALLY happens.
Google authenticates you in their services trought unique "keys" which are automatically generated upon system installation / factory reset, so if you clone your device or install a rom which has these "keys" pre-installed, obviously, your rom will only autheticate you in google servers if your phone is the only one using the service at that given time... Upon failure, your phone assumes to be the one who's wrong, and google servers won't autheticate you until you either tell your phone he is not wrong (by deleting the data from play store, which resets its status and errors) or you change the "keys". SO, what can we learn from this? deleting the play store data IS a temporary solution, and won't solve a thing. Let's delete the duplicated keys shall we?
Navigate with your favourite folder explorer on your android (I use X-plore, you can tell me anything, there's nothing better) to the following directory:
- "(root)/data/data/com.google.android.gsf"
Now you have two real options, either you may delete the all folder, which was the perfect solution for me, since my rom is prepared to re-create it upon phone restart and new keys will be generated, OR, you might want to just delete the contents of app_sslcache inside com.google.android.gsf whish are THE KEYS I HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT THIS ALL TIME, YEEEIHHHH and reboot your phone...
Needless to say, take a nandroid backup before you do any of this...
Thank me later
For those who remember me from symbian s60v3 phones, yes, it is me, I'm back, and I've moved to the droid world, it's much better indeed
Ps. Moderators, please test this out, I've done it countless times, or else I wouldn't be wasting my time writting this, and make this the "Clonning" for cwm and Google talk authentication error solution, if you will thank you for your time reading my post, regards---

THANK YOU!

[Q] Android.process.acore has stopped

So there are multiple threads on this but I don't see one specific to the Verizon S3.
I recently tried to make the move to a new rom. I have tried both synergy and beans14. On both of them I run into this error and my contacts will not sync with google. I have tried to clear data in contacts and contacts storage with no success. I even tried do a factory reset back to a new rooted stock image using the guide found in section 6 of this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1762709
From there i did another factory reset, complete cache wipes. I think flashed a recovery and tried installing the Beans14 rom again, and the issue is STILL THERE. I tried Beans because there was some talk that backup assistant could be the root of the issue and i beans does not contain this app...
Any idea what the hell is going on? I
If i revert back to my backup before trying to flash these roms I do not have the issue.

Yes the phone itself, try going into settings->application manager->running application->contacts then select "clear cache option" if you see contacts storage under running application clear the cache for that as well. If that doesn't work backup your contacts first and then under the two applications I just mentioned select the "clear data" option. If that still doesn't fix your problems try running the fix permissions utility found in ROM manager. Let me know if you need more help

I have tried all this to no avail. I have also tried fixing permissions within recovery

This issue usually shows up when there is an issue with your contacts. Do you have any apps that can affect your contacts? Mr. Number is one that comes to mind that when it is restored to the phone, can cause the error to show.
You can try to back up your contacts to the sd card. Delete your contacts from the phone, and confirm delete from Google. Then after a wipe, if it tries, do not restore from Google, import from the sd card. Before restoring apps, make sure you don't see the error anymore when opening the contact list. Then restore apps. If it happens again, pay special attention to what apps were restored to find any potential trouble makers.
Hope this helps.

[Q] How can I restore after booting into recovery? All contacts, apps, sms lost

Hello,
I booted into recovery using the Down Volume and Power button. It seems to have restored the interface to factory default, although all my pics on the phone and SD card are there.
I cant find any contacts,SMS or previous apps. The app files are on the device. I can see them from my PC, but they are not installed.
After booting into recovery mode I just returned there a couple times. Finally I was able to boot normally, but into a fresh UI.
How can I restore or get back my (wife's) contacts and SMS's? I think that they should be there on the phone still. They were not backed up.
Thanks.

Is the phone rooted? Are you using clockwork mod recovery? Contacts are usually backed up with a google/gmail account. Go into her settings>sync settings and hopefully her gmail account is there. If it is, just click on it and her contacts should restore. You can also backup your apps through the gmail account as well. I believe the playstore has an option to automatically update via wifi, try looking in there for options about that. If her contacts were not backed up via gmail, then they are probably lost. I'm going to assume that you do not have a nandroid backup on the device via CWM that you could roll back to?

Thanks for your reply. No, it is not rooted. No CWM (yet). It seems there is no backup of the contacts because syncing was off. I used the phone first and then passed it to my wife, so she did not want all my contacts, she just managed contacts manually. That is why syncing was off. I kept my google account on the phone to manage apps.
I do not have a Nandoid backup. I looked at Helium, but it does not seem to work on Android 2.2.2. How would you recommend I back up the device to prepare for a custom ROM like CM7.2?
I am more worried about her manually added contacts and SMS's.
I did not install anything like CWM yet, just booted into recovery mode. Then the phone started asking me questions like in the initiall setup ei "Add a Google Account"
Is there a way that I can extract the contacs and SMS's from a directory on the phone. (Most of her data and directories seem to be there when viewed from a PC as USB storage).
Why would this happen from a simple reboot into recovery mode? Did I hold the Volume Down and power too long?
Thanks,

To be honest I do not know if there is way to extract the lost contact information. I am only knowledgeable about recovery protocols with a rooted device utilizing a custom recovery software such as cmw. I have never entered recovery prior to flashing cwm. There are plenty of guides in the stickies that show how to flash cwm via nvflash and guides on how to use it in order to flash a custom rom like cm7.2

Your contacts are unfortunately gone. With the stock recovery holding the buttons too long equals a data wipe which is where contacts and such are stored.
Been there, done that. I had a similar situation on my wife's phone and ended up creating a dummy Google account for her so contacts would be backed up automatically.
The noob says:
In the absence of a valid argument, 2+1=3 may be used to explain why the g2x did not get the ICS update!
