MTD and BML?

What exactly makes them so different? Im not familiar with either, so this is why Im asking. Also, no Im not posting in the wrong forum, my daily driver is an sgs4g. This is my Dad's phone
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk

BML is proprietary to samsung. MTD is open source. Most custom roms like cm and aokp use MTD.

Most astute observation!

Is it really as easy to convert BML ROMs to MTD as the guide in that link makes it seem?
PS - The OP noted that he was using a different phone to post the original question.

From a developer that preaches 'read the op!', this is dissapointing. I'll explain why im using my dads phone and not my daily driver. Im not using my SGH-T959V because I didnt pay my bill this month. I cant stand simple mobile any longer, and Im switching to straight talk, so the phone wont be in use until then. And If youre wondering why I dont just use wifi, well I dont have dsl/cable internet now. Just mobile web.

Technically, this question has been asked before. The real problem with the dev forum is that it is not for asking questions and no one searches before they post.

Ok, I see now. Just a tip... You can get a screen shot of your phone by running ddms from the android sdk's platform-tools. Under the device menu, click screen capture.
You can even do this from recovery. (not sure about dl mode...)

Gents, in trying to keep the thread clean...YZ has agreed that we can centralize all discussion regarding the JB Jelly Bean build. So let's keep it here, I have combined what seems to a few threads and we can keep the posting of thread of the same subject down. Thanks in advance.

Serious question, because it kind of pinched a nerve. Why were the other threads closed actually? We were all staying on topic in all of the threads, no one was spamming at all just delightful and hopeful conversation. Just seems like only a top person could have a thread without it being closed, that's seems horribly true and obvious??

It's legit. That's the message my wife got on her phone that updated her to the new Rom with sense 3.0. She's not s-off though so she was able to install it. I rooted it for myself to use and I must say it's probably the smoothest gingerbread experience for our phones since all the custom roms are built on dhd base or our buggy gingerbread update.

Okay I'm not a sense fan and still on absolution 3.7 imo its the best rom for our phones but I just was making sure... I think my phones being duped(hacked) so I can't really say if the texts I'm getting are correct or just fakes lol.

How did you root the update. I had rooted 2.3.3 and now I have 2.3.5 update from AT&T. Totoally removed everything back to square one. I used ACE kit before and it wanted to uninstall and take me back. I like the new ROM, better all around.

It's normal to keep resetting a bunch during the upgrade. But if it finished and let you into Rom and is resetting then something went wrong. You aren't bricked though so I will tell you how to fix it. Just to be sure, I am assuming you are not s-off since the update actually ran. If you are s-off then just flash cwm through hack kit and install different Rom. If s-on do this. First from a pc download and install HTC sync and make sure it's running. Download the new ruu from HTC to your computer. Now take the battery out of phone. Put battery back making sure not to press the power on accident. Now with battery in hold volume down and tap power button while still holding volume down. You should enter hboot. Select fastboot and plug phone into pc. You will see fastboot USB on phone. Now from the pc run the ruu update and follow the prompts until finished. This will leave you at new stock with no data except what's on sd card.

An app doesn't cause the issues he is having. Apps force close themselves not the whole system. He can't even use the phone long enough to remove apps anyways.

Okay this is a fyi , i have been trying to do the AT&T update via WiFi all weekend, and got the the server busy message, so i tried again, same issue, then i turned on my data and WiFi , then i was able to download the update... it is down loading as we speak.

You have to be on WiFi for it to download. They took out the function of doing it over mobile network with the last Rom update. So if anyone else is having issues be sure WiFi is connected.

Pretty sure I hard bricked my Skyrocket

I'm not a noob at this or anything so I'm not sure where I went wrong. I had the newest CWM touch recovery by sk8erwitskill on my Skyrocket and I went into recovery and wiped data, system, and cache. I then flashed AOKP Milestone 6 for the Skyrocket along with Gapps for JB. When I tried to reboot my phone it won't come on at all. No Samsung logo or anything. I pulled the battery and even tried plugging it in and holding down the volume keys and nothing. I am almost certain its hard bricked but if anyone knows a way to fix it I'm willing to try. I also still have warranty left with AT&T since I only got it about 3 weeks ago. The flash counter had never been ticked so I assume they would accept it.

If you've only had it three weeks, I wouldn't waste my time. Take it back, tell them it won't turn on and you don't know why. They should give you a new one, no questions asked.

Well, I flashed the Gapps that GooManager provided for that particular build and during the installation it showed "for Android 4.1.1" in the log so I know the Gapps were for JB but I assumed AOKP Milestone 6 was JB so I didn't think anything of it. Like you said though, I don't see how that would give me a hard brick. I was just in the AT&T store earlier today complaining that my Skyrocket wouldn't recognize my SIM so I doubt I'll have any trouble returning it. I might just get the HTC One X as well. That's another story though.

Well, I flashed the Gapps that GooManager provided for that particular build and during the installation it showed "for Android 4.1.1" in the log so I know the Gapps were for JB but I assumed AOKP Milestone 6 was JB so I didn't think anything of it.

Slightly off topic, but I just went from the one x to the skyrocket, so keep in mind that you'll likely get firmware 2.20 which is unrootable at this point in time and and not being able to expand the memory sucks. I only had about 10gb of free space to play with out of the box. Just wanted to give you a heads up.

I also hard bricked mine
About five weeks ago or so I did the same thing - trying to get the AOKP jellybean (second release I think) on my skyrocket - it never would work but it was recomended that I go back to the ICS rom then try to go to JB from there (instead of the initial JB release.
So I flashed the AOKP ics rom and when my phone rebooted it shut off and never responded again. It didn't appear to charge or have any capabiilty of turning back on.
I've had my phone since last November and decided to take it to AT&T - they tried a few times then gave up so they called the warranty department who asked me if I had dropped it or gotten it wet; I said no, so they sent me a replacement (probably refurb) and took the dead phone.
The replacement works fine but I don't think I want to risk the AOKP build again.
I'll probably flash CM9 on it (Ive already put clockwork mod on it). I just am a little gunshy right now as I can't afford to replace the phone if it dies and I doubt I'll get so lucky with the warranty department again.

Wasn't aokp that bricked you, probably a ROM for a different phone

Reading your post, I can think of several different possibilities as to how your phone was bricked. AOKP is not one of them. Don't trash developers like that; AOKP is an excellent ROM that a lot of people around here use without any problems.

I don't think he was saying that AOKP is bad and it bricks phones in general, I think he was just claiming there builds for Skyrocket aren't working properly.
Anyway I took it in today and they gave me a replacement no questions asked. I couldn't get the HTC One X without paying the $35 restocking fee and I'm going to save some money and go exchange it later.

"Their" builds are fine. I'm running it now. But I did download the correct ROM for my device. Your download may have been bad maybe?

My guess is the download was bad. I downloaded it with GooManager and the built in MD5 checker said it was okay, but the download did freeze for a few minutes before completing.
By the way, I wasn't using R4INS' build when the brick happened, it was a build from AOKP's goo.im page. Milestone 6 for Skyrocket it was labeled. Judging from your picture I wasn't sure if you knew what I meant. I'm using the same build as you now and I had in the past as well I just thought maybe their build was different. R4INS' build works great though.

Are you saying u used goo manager to DL and install the ROM, if you did, don't, DL the ROM directly to your sdcsrd then use recovery to install
Posted w/xda app w/ i727R
MY STICKIES
| ROMS | KERNELS | FIRMWARE | RADIOS | HOWTO'S | GUIDES | INFo |
NEWB GUIDES TO: RESTORE TO STOCK | USE ODIN | INSTALL CWM | ROOT |

I was only using GooManager to download the ROM. I always use CWM to flash manually.

You might need to get permission from Nestlé/Hershey's to use that name, or risk being sued..
I wish Google would have kept the new name generic...

Get ready for the real kit kat treat.
I was gonna keep this a secret, but this thread pulled me in here.
Google had sent out an official OTA update to my phone thinking it was Nexus4. I stripped it down, made my own ROM along with the kernel.
4.4 ROM coming soon! :thumbup:

You must be using kexec to boot that kernel, I am guessing.
