So I recieved a G1 last night and decided to root it cuz I heard about it. Well initially I thought something was wrong because after loading the original dreaimg.nbh and the update was successful, I would press the trackball and get a serial0 code, i was able to reboot and everything, after having a lot of issues. I am now stuck at trying to unroot. I curently have the original dreaimg installed and still get the same serial0 error after the update is complete and am not able to login or even create a new gmail account. Please help Im dying here
Hi all,
I'm a new owner of a samsung omnia 7 and im trying to install mango build 7720 with no luck. When i open the provision program, after clicking agree I get a white screen with not text. I've been waiting for something to come for 2 hours now. I can sync with zune, so I don't know what the problem is. Any help would be appreciated.
thanks in advance
Great phone!!!
A few things, maybe...
If phone is not 'unlocked', either as a developer or using 'Chevron Method', it won't work. There is a provisioning version that bypasses the unlock requirement. It's on these forums somewhere. Use search..
Is the 'UpdateWP' exe installed??? If not, install it!!!
Anyway, hope this helps.
This happens because you have the wrong zune version installed.
Uninstall i t and reinstall the one with the first Mango release , this solved this issue for me.
With my omnia 7, different problem:
- i have to reboot manually the first time and enter manually in update mode (power camera volup)
- two steps are done and then the next phone reboot gives me an error and the phone is still at previous state
Hi,
A while back I rooted and unlocked using clockwork recovery and installed bigxie_magurTA_JRO03C-signed.zip
All was good for a while until the last month where I continually receive notification to update to 4.1.2
when I choose install, it attempts to reboot and on the recovery mode, I attempt to run the /sdcard/update.zip and it fails due to signature verification failure.
When I disable the signature verification, it states it cannot open the update file as if it is corrupt or not there,
I then tried to put on cyanogen mod, and when that loaded, I could not enter in my gmail profile info.
I then installed gapps on the next attempt to install cyanogen mod 10 and although more apps (google play app) was listed, still could not enter my gmail info anywhere
i have gone back to the 4.1.1 install I mentioned earlier, and it is running fine, but I am still prompted to update, which fails every single time.
Any suggestions on how to update this, I would be happy to go with cyanogen mod, but no idea really where to start.
I searched for the same error messages I was getting, and found a few posts but not solutions or recommendations,
Also, is this going to happen for every single update from this point on since rooting and unlocking the phone? i would prefer to give up more app control if going back to stock builds means not having to give up this much time for every update.
Thanks to anyone that can help.
Hi! I realise this if my first post I'd like to tread lightly; but I'm about 4 days into solving my issues and I just want to finish it...
I've had my Nexus i9020a (bought from Koodo) since ~May 2012. I upgraded to ICS sometime in the summer and sometime in the last few weeks it has started rebooting. I hadn't been installing new apps, etc. I'm not sure what the cause is. I 'Factory Reset' today in an attempt to resolve the issue, thinking it may be a program gone AWOL; but it has rebooted a few times since. I *just* looked through rebooting FAQ on this site and have edited the first few features listed there. I'm not sure if it has worked yet, but I'll get back to you on that. For the record, the only programs I have installed now are Swiftkey 3, Handcent and Beats (DDR simulator, updated in November).
In the meantime, before I found the solutions here, I decided to take another shot at unlocking the bootloader and try installing... probably CyanogenMod.
Specs: Windows 7 64 bit with Nexus S I9020a (Koodo) running 4.0.4 (4.1.1/2 OTA haven't come through, despite dozens of attempts at clearing the GSF cache, etc)
So I've been using the Nexus S: Full Update Guide found at:
hxxp://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/wiki/Nexus_S:_Full_Update_Guide
(It won't let me post the link)
I've followed the guide for installing the Android SDK, gone to CMD and typed 'adb devices' and had it show up. Theoretically, the SDK should be running fine.
Next, I turned on the USB debug mode. Then I booted up the bootloader, plugged the NS into the PC... and despite not having issue when the it's turned on (driver installed properly) windows says drivers have not been found for the device. Thus, when I type fastboot devices, it comes up with nothing.
I've been, and will continue perusing forums for this, but so far I haven't seen anyone with this specific problem.
Edit: I have also gone to the directory with fastboot/adb and used cmd to reboot into the bootloader, only to have windows 'ding ding ding' an unrecognised device.
2nd Edit.
I've gotten a stage further! I'll keep the thread open because I may come across something and it's nice to write my issues down. Seems my head can wrap around the problem a bit better. Anyway, I installed PDAnet and BAM, it works. Onto getting CWM installed! Thanks for the, uh, help!
3rd Edit.
CyanogenMod 10.0 stable is booting for the first time!! It's taking a while... but I appear to be on the home stretch! Also, my phone didn't reboot for a few hours before I installed CM. So if I don't end up somehow bricking it... and I mean, this first boot is taking a heck of a long time... The animation sets me at least a bit at ease... maybe 4.0.4 will work out...
Edit 4
I forgot to clear the app and cache data before flashing the ROM to the phone and thus the issue... after a VERY tension filled moment of pulling the battery during first boot... I rebooted, cleared said data and reflashed the ROM. After a boot, I realised I forgot the GAPPS zip and fixed that. Now I'm running CM10 Stable!! I'm stoked that after months of putting it off cuz last time I did it I didn't get anywhere after many days, but now it's done!! Thanks again for such an awesome site!
Thanks for sharing your experience instead of just saying "Mods please delete this i solved my own problem" :good:
So it look like the JB OTA update is here for the USA. Mine is rooted, and has already download the update, but I haven't applied it yet, as I'm rooted and I don't know if I have to do something special first.....
Any one have any info on this?
Same Boat !!
Me too in same boat with P3113.See the post below yours :crying: Hope experts replies soon.
I went ahead and installed it on my daughters tab. CWM protected itself, and root. I'm still poking around, but thus far no issues beyond it says "update failed" but clearly didn't.
I'm wondering if I should remove CWM and unroot it first...
Run a nandroid real quick, back it up to your computer, and let 'er rip. Like I said, it's working perfectly for me. Then again my daughter is 7, so losing all her data isn't really a problem.
Updated with Root ?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So if i understand correctly , you allowed the OTA with root and it wiped data ? I am suprised it installed with Custom recovery !!!
I have over 200 user apps. Will i retain those Apps (dont mind data being wiped)
No, it didn't wipe data. I wasn't worried about it "if" it did, because it's my daughters, and I have TIBU for all her games from like last week.
Just to be perfectly clear. NOTHING went wrong. It installed the new O.S., booted fine, said the update failed, but the update didn't fail. Probably because CWM preserved root, and bootloader, so verification failed.
I ran it..... It updated thru CWM... Once done said update failed, but I had a new agreement to agree too. Sys info says its running 4.1.1.
If I have and issue, ill update here.
Failed for P3113
Based on your experience thought I would try too... Unfortunately failed miserably... I have Cwm 6.0.2.3 and attached is the crash log... Maybe some experts can give their views..
I guess I'll post my successful config just for the sake of comparison.
I'm currently running CWM 6.0.1.1. The tab was rooted with a file called gtab2_jellybean_rooter (think I got it from XDA, but i'm not positive) and had no other modifications/roms/etc.
If you're running any sort of ROM you're definitely boned, gotta wait for a ROM update. Beyond that, I'm not really sure what to say
To do the proper update, you should un-root and then re-root once done. That way you get the full support with your update if needed.
I am rooted, running CWM 6.0.2.3. I accepted the update and hit the install thinking that it would fail just as it does on a rooted SIII. The notification said the install had failed, but as others here have indicated, it appears as though the install was successful. I retained root and all seems to be normal; with one exception: It appears that the Tab no longer "sleeps" but shuts down completely. Regardless of whether I turn it off with the power button (short press) or if the screen simply goes to sleep, I have to long press the power button and it goes through a full boot.
Is anyone else experiencing this? Is there a setting I am missing? I am not a noob at rooting, etc. as I have been doing it since my OG Droid on Verizon, but it surprised me when the update seemed to install (even Google Now is working), and I am stumped about this "shut down" that seems to happen.
I experienced the same thing. I was rooted and had installed CM10, went back to original backup, using latest CWM. I hit system update and it downloaded the update, asked me to continue. CWM asked me if I wanted to install unsigned zip, I accepted, and it went through. At first boot it said update failed, but like everyone else, it went through. I have had no issues at all. My tab goes to sleep correctly.
Have peace in mind.
I finished updating (unfortunately, the battery was 9%, so I had to wait for an hour to charge before doing anything) and I got "failed" error like everybody got, but the system shows 4.1.1 and the performance is improved, and I applied root again.
