[Q] Gapps won't work {I have a picture :O}

My Wifi-Only US Xoom is rooted with the universal xoom root, and has the EOS-Wingray-60 Rom successfully installed, but everytime I try to download Gapps, this comes up:
How do I fix that?
EDIT: That is no longer the problem. Everytime I flash Gapps now, my xoom ALWAYS gets stuck on the dual core screen after reboot.
Double EDIT: I was too lazy to stock flash it, so I simply wiped everything again, downloaded EOS wingray 60, Then I wiped my cache and my dalvik (Not data), then reinstalled Gapps, and fixed permissions and it finally loads now. Thank ****ing god.

Can anyone help me with this please??

I can get the EOS-Wingray-60 ROM to work, and then I fixed permissions, and then tried installing GApps and it's still (bad)!!!

Download the most recent EOS gapps from there. The (bad) in your attempted install means the zip is corrupt.

Alright, so my problem continues. I was running stock unrooted ICS, then flashes recovery. Then I wiped data, cache and dalvik. Then I rooted with the Xoom universal root. Rebooted, works fine. Then I went to recovery, wiped data, cache, and dalvik, and flashes eos Rom 60. Rebooted, works fine. Then I went to recovery, wiped data, cache, and dalvik, successfully installed gapps 10.5 for the first time, it wasn't (bad). Rebooted, andddd stuck. After I rebooted in permanately stuck on the dual core Motorola logo thing. What did I do wrong?

You need to flash the GApps file immediately after the EOS rom...no reboot first. This is a must.

When I flash them, is there anything I need to wipe or clear? Or do I leave everything alone?

God Dammit! This is pissing me off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It ****ing takes for ever to upgrade back to ICS when I have to flash the ****ing stock of 3.0!!!
I upgraded to ICS, after flashing 3.0, I flashed the R4c Recovery, I did a factory reset, and wiped Dalvik and Cache, then I installed the Universal root (Is there a different root I should use?), then I went back (Still in recovery mode) and did a factory reset, and wipe cache and dalvik. Then I install Wingray-60, then *immediately after* I installed Gapps v10.5!!!! I rebooted and my ****ING xoom is stuck on the dual core screen AGAIN!!!
WHAT THE ****.

Not quite sure what those first few steps were, but boot to recovery, go to mounts and storage and wipe system and cache, then go to the wipe menu and do a data wipe and dalvik wipe.
Then flash ICS and gapps.
Shouldn't have any problems after that unless your Xoom doesn't like ICS for some strange get reason.

[Q] Problem with S'perience ROM - Loses root when I install

I'd post a reply to the official thread, but I still can't as of now due to low number of posts.
So I downloaded S'perience ROM from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1888350
Then I tried flashing it as needed. The phone restarts and voila, S'perience. However, I found out that I had lost my root.
Busy Box is installed, but when I checked via Root Checker, it told me that some SU binaries are not present, therefore my phone has lost root.
I tried rerooting my phone and flashing S'perience three times, but the same thing happen. Yeah, I did the usual factory rest, cache and data wipe, etc, and I have no idea why my phone loses root when I flash this ROM.
Can anyone help me?

I just contacted the author of that ROM.
Hopefully they'll be able to help you out

So I just flash this right after I flash S'perience, right?
Thank you so much for your replies!

Okay, so I finally installed S'perience on my LWW. And for the sake of comparison and exploration, I'm trying out Hyperbeam.
So I did the following:
1. flashed .58 firmware,
2. unlocked bootloader
3. installed Rage Kernel
4. CWM
5. wipded data (factory reset)
6. wiped cache
7. wiped dalvik cache
8. flashed base ROM (Hyperbeam)
9. flashed patch
10. flashed lockscreen
Then reboot.
Now, my phone's undergoing bootloop for a good fifteen minutes. And it's still continuing as I type this. Anything I did wrong?
Thank you so much in advance.

[Q] CyanogenMod 10.1 if on TWRP?

I am kind of a noob and was looking for some help. I currently have my TF300t Unlocked and Rooted with stock Jelly Bean version 4.1.1 on build number 10.4.2.13-2012-09-07, also installed the TWRP recovery in order to do this.
My question is can I install the CyanogenMod 10.1 with TWRP or do I need to have CWM Recovery installed instead and if so how should I proceed to accomplish this?
Thanks!

I'm no expert as to wether it usually causes any problems, but I installed the latest nightly build of cm10 a couple of days ago using TWRP and didn't have any problems. Only thing was that I couldn't read an SD card in the keyboard dock while in cm10, not sure if this was something I'd done wrong or maybe cm10 just doesn't support it yet.
I just downloaded to internal storage, wiped cache and dalvik and also factory reset and data wipe (data wipe only because I wanted to clear all the junk off) then just installed from zip as normal. Hope this helps.
Mike.

How do you like the rom so far, any crashes or annoying buggy stuff?

Bootloop in custom roms

Hi everybody
I have a X1032 model. I'm having a problem flashing custom roms. I'm on stock 4.4.2. I unlocked my bootloader and installed cwm with fastboot " CWM-swipe-6.0.4.7-falcon.img". After that i rooted my phone with some supersu.zip file that i had to flash in cwm. So i have bootloader unlocked and a rooted device. Downloaded C-rom 4.4.3, wiped data/factory reset, wiped chache, and in mounts and storage i wiped /system. After that i flashed C-rom 4.4.3 succesfully but when i reboot the phone its stuck on a bootloop and i can't see why. I've tried it 3 times with no luck and even an older version of it, i tried cm11 4.4.3 but same no luck i tried waiting 20 minutes but it didnt help. Am i doing something wrong? or did i miss a step or something?
These are the roms i tried to flash:

Have you wiped cache? I'm not sure but wiping cache sometimes helps.
You may try Philz touch recovery, too. It can clean the phone to install a new rom, so it may solve your problem if you forgot to wipe a partition.
edit: Sorry, you said you wiped cache, missed it. You can still try another recovery I think. Don't know why but trying another recovery sometimes help. (I saved myself once, but may be just coincidence)

dont wipe the system!

Just stop wiping the system and it will work fine.

[Q] Failed upgrade - now soft bricked

Hi all...
I tried to upgrade by Tab 2 7" to KitKat today and failed. I installed Clockworkmod successfully, but then started getting error 7's. I discovered this was because it was outdated. I've tried to install updated clockwork mod which it says has been successful - but doesn't change the original.
I did a backup of my original rom, but this has failed to reinstall. I've tried to put an old version of cyanogen on it, which also has failed, and re-downloaded the stock rom from samsfirmware which passes through ODIN, resets but then the tab 2 hangs on the Samsung screen - flashing.
I can't seem to resolve it.
Has anyone got any ideas? I can't access anything other than clockworkmod - so if you think you know of a way I can successfully upgrade it I may stand half a chance.....
Thanks
Tim

Use Odin to restore to the stock ROM. Download the stock rom from samfirmware.com and flash it in Odin as PDA. Then, use the latest recovery (either TWRP, CWM, OR PhilZ) from @Android-Andi's recovery thread in the Dev section. You should now be able to flash any ROM you want to. Make sure you do a backup and a wipe system, cache, Dalvik, data, and android secure (if it's an option.)

thanks and....
Thanks so much, does it matter that it won't boot with the stock Roma which I've installed from sams? Will the recovery program still work?

Yes, I did twice and it's still hung after apparent success installation according to Odin. I've tried it twice.

No success
Thanks
What I've done tonight is reflashed the original Rom - this time it blew away Clockworkmod. It still wouldn't boot. I then put a recovery solution on from your link, which has flashed well. However I've then tried three ROMS and each have hung after installation on the initial boot.
I'll try them again tomorrow night - but do you have any idea why three ROMS plus the stock keep failing?
Thanks

Did you wipe system, cache, Dalvik cache, and data before flashing and wipe cache and dalvik after flashing? And your tablet will bootloop after a reinstallation in Odin because Odin does not wipe before installation. After flashing in Odin, reboot recovery (make sure tablet is unplugged,) and wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache. Reboot and you should be good to go.

Hi, I've retried all that this morning-i must admit that I didn't know about wiping cache after install, however it's not made any difference, and still hangs on first boot...
Any other ideas? Thanks for all your help.

Happy success
Hi all
Thanks for all your help,especially rcj! I have managed to recover my device using cynagodmod 9 - it wont run 10 or 11 but at least its up and working - even if it's a downgrade from the Android version I was on Really don't care as I can use it again with a lot more memory.
Thanks - without you I would never have found Phils ROM which enabled me to get this far.

Which version of PhilZ? And I have found that TWRP 2.7.1.0 works better than other versions for KK.
Sent from my SGH-T989

Use latest Philz touch recovery. And use the rom and gapps compatible to your tab. Don't forget to reset to factory setting, clear cache and wipe dalvic cache before flashing the rom and gapps ☺
