custom ROM ICS 4.0.3 by cybermaus on Lenovo A750 - General Questions and Answers

Hi,
the fprum rules are forcing me to open a separate topic about my Lenovo A750 as I'm not allowed to post reply in "dev topics". I do not understand how users with less than 10 post can reply in that topic yet I cannot
anyway.
I try to install A750_S306_120530_cybermaus_ICS_V1. The howto is saying I should put the zip on SD card and boot in CWRM:
- Put S306 V1 zip file on SD card (do not unzip)
- Also put S306 V1.3 zip file on the SD card (do not unzip)
- Boot into Recovery
- First apply V1, then apply V1.3
- Potentially, clear userdata and cache, especially if you come from any S14x GB
- Reboot, and wait for it to complete.

The problem is, I cannot access the external SD card. Message is "cannot mount /sd-ext" [NB A750 has one card embedded and another "external"].
I put the archives [ICS v1 and the patc, v1.3] on internal SD and was able to navigate and launch those. however, instructions said to reboot and wait to complete.
I waited for 30 mins -- nothing completed (
Please advice.
Hoping that someone will care to share,
Thanks in advance.

What ROM do you have installed currently? You do need to install V0 using flash method first, so that you have a proper recovery.
If you do already indeed have the recovery partition, and that is not mounting the SD card, then I am not sure, I did not pack/unpack the recovery, so I am not sure whats in there and how they are related.
But I do suspect that since the recovery is working for others, and since the recovery is pretty much self contained (iow, not influenced by my ROM), that you may have a problem with your SD card or slot itself.

I'm on a750_s148_120428_cybermaus_v1.
I did not flashed [yet] a750_s305_120514_cybermaus_ics_v0.
I also tried to make a backup from CWRM at it didnt work: same message, cannot mount.
Flashing now v0...

Done!
I'm on ICS 4.0.3.
Thanks!:laugh:
Previous attempt was to go apply directly the updates, without flashing v0 :angel:

issue with 3g
I just ran into the following issue.
The data conn on WCDMA slot is not working. Voice is ok. It is not an issue w/ provider as I checked with another phone.
That happened twice and I quick-fixed it by restore to defaults.
I'm trying to see maybe some of my apps are messing the data conn up? and again, I'm using 'normal' apps such as ES file explorer&task manager, a free calendar, a clock widget, titanium.

ICS 4.0.4
Hi,
I'm also not allowed to post in the main A750 thread (cybermause's).
I'm currently on A750_S306_120530_cybermaus_ICS_V1.
i tried Apkhot_lenovo750_4.0.4_0623_YS_V3_Smilevvv and Apkhot_lenovo750_4.0.4_0707_Smilevvv, both were very fast and i liked '0707' for it's
lock screen and the launcher.
But the problem was i couldn't sign-in to any google app (google play, gmail, youtube.....). i installed those apps from the sd card, some didn't start
and for the other's i couldn't sign-in.
i tried to use the cybermause v1.2 patch, but at the end i got back to 4.0.3

Since this isn't development related, you should post it in the general board.
You didn't install clockwork correctly, or you didn't follow all of the directions when you did install it. Did you follow the instructions and press "flash clockworkmod recovery", which downloads the latest version and puts the update file on your phone?
i did, i have the latest recovery version. and i uninstalled and then reinstalled it before trying again.
Wrong section and you have to use the option that says choose zip from sdcard not the one that says install update.zip

If there is no update.zip then in Rom Manager you need to select the first option that reads Flash ClockworkMod Recovery. That will bring up a screen asking which phone. If you are installing an i9000 rom choose i9000. If not choose the Captivate. That will install an update.zip on your sd card
Then select install rom from sd card and it will probably take you to stock recovery so select install packages (or whatever the 2nd choice is). That will get you into CWM. Install whatever rom from there
First off, this is the right section, as this thread is *somewhat* development related.
I had a similar problem a while back, and never did figure out exactly what was causing it. Might have been because I often just use the Clockwork update.zip (bootstrapped from stock recovery) to flash ROMs without always "installing" it from Android itself. Though, even when I got that error, I could still flash new ROMs without problems.
Either way, flash to stock w/ oneclick, then do a master clear, fixes the problem right up.

Mmmm.. last time I checked the development forums was for developers to start topics on things they have developed or are working on... not for Q & A. There's another board for that..
I get this error all the time.
Open ROM Manager, hit Menu, hit Clear Download Cache.
Then hit Flash Clockwork Mod Recovery, choose Captivate, and let it go. Then hit Reboot Into Recovery and it should work fine. You may have to select Reinstall Packages if you end up in the stock 2e recovery.

Hey fellow G2x's. I rooted my phone today and attempted to install CM7 nightly #56. FIrst of all...
I tried just downloading the rom via rom manaer, clicked wipe data and wipe cache. When I did it tried to install and asid "Could not open cm7nightlyetc..." And then it proceeded to reboot itself as if it was a new phone.
I then tried to do it via recovery. First whenever I click install from zip card then choose zip from sdcard, the only file I can see is LOST.DIR/ even though I deliberately moved the rom into the sdcard/. I was met with the same problem.
During both the encounters. a triangle with an ! appears, with a little android dude next to it. WHat does this mean? What do I need to do to fix this?

First rule of G2X/Tegra2 club... don't use Rom Manager. Use CWR for all your flashing needs. *Install CWR via NVFlash only.
Alright, I'm sorry but I came the G2.... And I was wondering what NVFlash is? I'm gonna google it, but it will be nice if you answer it too.
Setting up NVFlash
Here's the guide to setting up NVFlash. It's a moderately challenging process, but it's seamless after getting it put on your G2x. This is the only way to get CWM without issues. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1054492
Oh, and remember to go into C: on your computer and make the folder "G2x". This is where you put the files from NVFlash.

First - the above is the truth - learned the hard way by many.
From the "triangle" comment, I would have thought you were not able to get into recovery anymore, but you said you had tried flashing in recovery - are you still able to get into recovery? Also, when you said you moved the file to the SD - internal or external?
You could re-download the ROM on you computer and/or move the one you downloaded when in USB connect mode if you can connect through USB. and then try flashing it again.
Otherwise - did you do an nandroid back-up first (add that to the G2X Club rules). If so, and you can get into recovery, you can restore it through recovery. If not, you are truly back to square one (except for rooted).
At some point, you need to NVflash a real recovery. The one-click method in the Dev section is the easier way to go. If you can't get into recovery (you only see the triangle and it only does a factory reset), then you HAVE to start there.
Yeah I am still able to get to recovery mode. And external sdcard.
I think i'm just gonna go staright to the NVFlash way. I have a history class today so I have a hour and a half to burn.
And thanks guys for all the inputs.
I'm loving my G2x so far. So fast and sleek
All you need to do is NVFlash once, just so you can get into recovery on a bootloop (Power+VolDown)
After you install NVFlash once, you can use RomManager all you want (I do).
Rom Manager will install a temp recovery initially, but it won't affect your permanent NVFlash recovery. So just do both. Rom Manager will work perfectly fine without doing a NVFlash, but an NVFlash just enables the option to get into recovery on a cold boot.
Every day, I launch Rom Manager and it will find the latest Nightly and download it plus Google Apps, prompts for Full Wipe, Backup, or Cache options, then it will reboot, flash the items, and reboot back into Android.
So, again, NVFlash just enables Power+VolDown to get into recovery but Rom Manager works great without it. You SHOULD do BOTH initially and just get it out of the way.
Alright thanks. I just installed via NVFlash and now I will try again to install CM7

Agree with all the above (I have and use both), except for making nandroids, which was not mentioned above. The only ones where I have had a check-sum issue with trying to restore are nandroids I did with ROM Manager. I would stick with doing them straight from recovery.
Others have had issues with flashing nightlies also, but I have not noticed that as I always head straight to recovery to flash.
Question - I had flashed real recoveries with ROM manager on MT4G - why the "false" recovery issue on G2X?
So player, once I have NVFLASH and CWM, I can download ROM manager to backup/restore/flash any ROM from the list without worrying about anything?
Hey, I installed the 4.0.0.3 and I still have the same problem. I can't see any roms I put on the SD card, and when I try to install it by naming it update.zip it gives me the same error. Any ideas?
OKay so here is what happens
Installing: /sdcard/update.zip
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
E:Can't open /sdcard/update.zip
(No such file or directoy)
Installation aborted
THere is definately a file there. I just named it that cause it wont shop up when i choose zip from sd card.
I would redownload the zip file over the computer, happened to me before with a different rom, make sure it doesnt unzip. and then drag it to your SD card.
Okay I am perfomring that now, will edit with results.
My goodness... I think you fixed it for me. I feel like an idoit. I've been saving it to hte internal Sdcard i didn't even know that was possible.
Damnit... same problem.
Yay I got it. Thanks so much guys for all the help.

The ROMs were probably going to the internal SD by default. Just move them with a file manager to the external SD (unless you set up recovery to use the internal SD).
Also, do not rename them update zip - leave the names as-is so you will know what your are dealing with if you have multiple ROMs .
Then you flash it as a zip file on SD card - not as "update.zip" - that would be for the OTA update - if we ever actually see one for the G2X!
Good job Gman
Different roms put the external SD card in different places.
By default Rom Manager is set to read/write to /sdcard/... not /sdcard/external_SD that is the norm with the stock(based) roms.
Once you have CM7 on there and everything setup under standard conditions, Rom Manager will work as it should.

[GUIDE] From stock GB to Custom JB (Noob-friendly)

STOCK GB ALL THE WAY TO JB CUSTOM ROM
If you run Gingerbread, start from A directly
If you run un-rooted Jellybean, start from B
If you run rooted Jellybean with a custom kernel, start from C.
If you run rooted Jelly Bean without a custom kernel, start from B, but skip number 1 and 6.
You might want to read this before starting, it is optional though, but will give you a better idea of what you're doing.
GUIDE
This guide shall guide you through turning your suckish GB i9070 (not i9070p) to Custom ROM JB Awesomeness.
Unless your phone shipped from Russia, it probably has Gingerbread preinstalled... so, let's first Jellybeanize it.
A) JELLYBEANIZATION:
Download Odin3 from here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/atta...1&d=1341114315. Extract it into a folder.
Download Stock JB firmware from here. http://hotfile.com/dl/222710569/1f2...m-GT-I9070-TSR-I9070XXLQE-1365486223.zip.html . Extract it into a separate folder, you will get a .tar.md5 file.
Make sure you have Kies installed, but not running.
Turn your phone off, and boot into Download mode, this can be done by holding the Vol.Down+Home+Power buttons together at the same time, till it boots.
Press Volume up to continue. Plug in your phone (make sure it's at least 60% charged) . Wait till Odin recognizes (It should say something like COMORT... to the left).
Click on PDA and choose the firmware (.tar.md5) that you extracted in step 2. Click start.
Right now, a virus which will fry your phone's internals is being installed... Calm down, joke.
When your phone boots into JB, and Odin says "PASS". Unplug.
NOTE: There is a chance that you will get a bootloop ( i.e. Android won't boot ). No, no, no... your phone isn't broken! Simply reboot to stock recovery by powering off, then pressing Vol.Up+Home+Power buttons together and wipe data/factory reset. It'll boot nicely
Now, you are currently on a stock Samsung Jellybean firmware, which is not rooted. This basically means that you do not have access to modifying the system files in your ROM, which means that you cannot install any custom kernel, custom recovery or a custom ROM... In section B, you will learn how to gain root access, install a custom kernel with a custom recovery.
B) ROOTING, KERNEL & TWRP/CWM:
Download Shaan's root from here http://d-h.st/ook
Download Temporary cwm from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1987313
Download CoCore + TWRP (TWRP is one of the two recoveries available, we will use it in this guide because it looks less intimidating, and it's touch-enabled ) from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/atta...8&d=1363518705
Place all 3(or 2 if you're rooted) zip files in your external SD card
Power off. Boot into recovery by holding Vol.Up+Home+Power.
By navigating via volume buttons, choose install zip from external sd card, and install root.zip... shouldn't take long.
In the same way install update.zip. Now in a few seconds, you will get a different screen, this is Clockworkmod recovery, albeit a temporary one..
In this recovery, go to install zip, then install zip from external sd, and choose CoCore+TWRP. After installation, keep going back until the main cwm screen, and hit reboot.
NOW, Everytime you boot into recovery (which is the way to backing up and installing custom ROMs) you will get TWRP.
Now, you are rooted, with a custom kernel, and TWRP ( a custom recovery). You can either stay on stock Samsung firmware, or continue through section C, and get yourself a custom ROM.
C) INSTALLING A CUSTOM ROM:
Download any custom ROM (Recommendations at the end of the thread) zip and place it in the root of your external (or internal, but i prefer ext.) sd.
Boot into recovery.
Navigate by touch, press backup, and slide as instructed to make a backup.
Go back to the main screen and choose install. If the zip has been placed in ext. sd. then press on external sd and choose the appropriate zip and slide to install. If placed in internal sd, then choose internal sd from the top and go to /emmc folder, and choose zip and install.
When finished, navigate to the recovery home, and press reboot sytem.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q- Which of the above will increase my binary counter?
A- None! Let me clarify how the binary counter is tipped. The only way the binary counter can be increased is if you flash anything that is non-official Samsung signed, via Odin.
Q- How do I unroot?
A- You can unroot simply by following the steps in section A and not continuing with the rest of the guide.
Q- I encountered a problem, what now?
A- If the problem is related to this guide and the steps followed in this guide, then post it here, I'll try to help when possible. If you encountered a general problem not related to this guide, please post a thread in the Q&A/Troubleshooting section.
ROM Recommendations
If you want a fully stable ROM, with everything working, Cyanogenmod or Cyanogenmod based ROMs currently do not fit the cirteria, as they some bugs still remain in these. So, you may try one of the stock based ROMs.
[AOSP Themed] - JellyMod - by martin_carpio17 Link here
[S4 Themed] - Light JB - by petraru1 Link here
[AOSP Themed] - Pure Vanilla - by ikaster17 Link here
[Xperia UI Themed] Galaxperia - by Achyut Link here
However, if you'd still like to go for most change, and don't mind the small bugs, then you may try Cyanogenmod or the Cyanogenmod based ROMs below.
Cyanogenmod 10 - by diego-ch and other contributing developers Link here
MIUI v4 - by fedevd Link here
Paranoid Android Port - by nlygamz Link here
Cyanilla - by ikaster17 Link here
This is basically it for this tutorial! Finally eh? But really now, all the above is very very easy once you get used to it, I mean, all the sections in the guide, A, B and C can all be done in 5 minutes, but I've simplified everything as to suite everyone's experience.
Hopefully this guide was useful for you...
If I made any mistakes with this, please correct me

A million thanks for the guide .. I've installed Jetmod 4.0 and it's running fine. My only concern is that I created a backup of my previous ROM in the internal storage and now just 33MB space is available for installation of apps. Can you please tell me how to 1. Remove the backup, or 2. Move it to the external storage ?
Thanks !
Go to "my files" - internal (sdcard0 I suppose) select what file u want to move an move to external memory (sdcardExt).

I have already tried that, but I am not able to identify the backup. I had used to TWRP to backup and then flash JellyMod. I had looked up on some threads that the backup will be in SD -> TWRP -> Backups (or something similar to this), but there is no such folder in my phone.

in your file manager browse to ext_sd. from within ext_sd you should have a folder labeled nandroid..
also, by default, the backups should be labeled/dated accordingly..
you could also get details on each file from within file manager that will give you more specific info. date created, etc..
hope this helps..
Thanks guys, but I think I didn't make myself clear. The backup is present in the 2GB memory reserved for installing apps. How do I access that storage and remove the backup? I'm an android beginner, so pls have patience with me.

[ROM] Amlogic Next8P12 (NXM805MC) Modified Recovery - Stock Rom - Root & Gapps

Amlogic Next8P12 (NXM805MC) Modified Recovery - Stock Rom - Root & Gapps
These files are for the Amlogic Nextbook Next8P12 (NXM805MC) also referred to as the "Black Friday @ Big Lots" model.
This is my first release. Here is what you get:
Modified Stock 3e Recovery:
This is the stock recovery, dumped from the device, unpacked, modified to use Google Test Keys instead of Private Nextbook Keys and then repackaged for your enjoyment.
Unzip and place the uImage_recovery file on your external SD Card. Reboot to recovery by holding Volume and Power. You won't notice any visual changes, but you can attempt to flash any .zip signed with Google Test Keys.
Your mileage may vary. If something won't flash there is a compatibility problem between the updater-binary or updater-script and our kernel/recovery.
Stock Rom:
This is a close as I could get to a flashable stock rom.
This contains a stock bootloader.img, boot.img, logo.img, and aml_logo.img dumped from the device. The system partition was also dumped from the device. I believe all of the Nextbook bloatware is here, with nothing added and NO ROOT. Everything has been packaged into an update.zip and signed with Google Test Keys.
Place the update.zip on external SD Card and flash using the modified recovery above.
Stock Internal SD Card:
This is just a .zip containing the stock files from the SD Card. It includes the .pdf manuals, intro video, free public domain e-books, demo photos, etc... If you deleted this stuff and wanted it back, just unzip and copy the desired files to your internal SD Card.
Root Package:
This is a flashable .zip that installs the su binary and has been signed with Google Test Keys.
Put it on your external SD Card and flash it using the modified recovery above. Then install your preference of Superuser.apk or SuperSu.apk from the Google Play store or elsewhere.
Gapps Package:
This is a flashable Gapps package from Goo.im, with a modified updater-script and resigned with the Google Test Keys.
Put this on your external SD Card and flash with the modified recovery above.

Amlogic Next8P12 (NXM805MC) Modified Recovery - Stock Rom - Root & Gapps
These files are for the Amlogic Nextbook Next8P12 (NXM805MC) also referred to as the "Black Friday @ Big Lots" model.
This is my first release. Here is what you get:
Modified Stock 3e Recovery:
This is the stock recovery, dumped from the device, unpacked, modified to use Google Test Keys instead of Private Nextbook Keys and then repackaged for your enjoyment.
Unzip and place the uImage_recovery file on your external SD Card. Reboot to recovery by holding Volume and Power. You won't notice any visual changes, but you can attempt to flash any .zip signed with Google Test Keys.
Your mileage may vary. If something won't flash there is a compatibility problem between the updater-binary or updater-script and our kernel/recovery.
Stock Rom:
This is a close as I could get to a flashable stock rom.
This contains a stock bootloader.img, boot.img, logo.img, and aml_logo.img dumped from the device. The system partition was also dumped from the device. I believe all of the Nextbook bloatware is here, with nothing added and NO ROOT. Everything has been packaged into an update.zip and signed with Google Test Keys.
Place the update.zip on external SD Card and flash using the modified recovery above.
Stock Internal SD Card:
This is just a .zip containing the stock files from the SD Card. It includes the .pdf manuals, intro video, free public domain e-books, demo photos, etc... If you deleted this stuff and wanted it back, just unzip and copy the desired files to your internal SD Card.
Root Package:
This is a flashable .zip that installs the su binary and has been signed with Google Test Keys.
Put it on your external SD Card and flash it using the modified recovery above. Then install your preference of Superuser.apk or SuperSu.apk from the Google Play store or elsewhere.
Gapps Package:
This is a flashable Gapps package from Goo.im, with a modified updater-script and resigned with the Google Test Keys.
Put this on your external SD Card and flash with the modified recovery above.
Downloads:
See original thread at http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.php?6581-Amlogic-Next8P12-%28NXM805MC%29-Modified-Recovery-Stock-Rom-Root-amp-Gapps

P.S. > A big thank you to Finless Bob for everything he has done for the Android community, for the legwork he did on the Amlogic Nextbooks that inspired me and lead me this far, and for hosting the above files on Freaktab.com!
Thanks also to all the other Freaktab members who helped find the various root methods for the Amlogic Nextbook devices which made it possible to dump the files needed for this project. Everyone's contributions, whether large or small, helped make this possible.

Volume down would be the correct key. You should the android guy and a menu that you navigate with the volume keys and select options with the power key. Please note, that this modified recovery look EXACTLY like the stock recovery. The only difference is that it checks for google signatures instead of nextbook signatures, which allows us to create our own updates for this tablet.

To owners of Amlogic Next8P12 have you tried to use a VPN (eg: OpenVPN) on your device that uses the VpnService API?
My girlfriend has the Next8P12 tablet and I'd like to root it for her. I see this cancan only be done from an external SD card. My question is: does the NextP12 have a slot in/on it for an SD to be inserted? Or do I need to get some kind ofUSB dongle that houses an SD card?

Hi, I'm super new in all this about rooting. I have a Next8P12 that my wife got last year, we have not been using it because it doesn't come with the Google store app. Could you give help me out in how to do this, step by step?
I downloaded all the files and put them into a SD card. I can boot the tablet into recovery and all that. Now, which files should I use first? in the SD I have Modified Stock 3e Recovery, Stock Rom, Stock Internal SD Card, Root Package and Gapps Package. I have no idea about what to do next. I will so grateful if you could help me out with some more directions.
Thanks!!

Pull the file out of the recovery zip file and have it sit on the root of your SD card. Boot into recovery.
You can probably just flash the root package, then the gapps, then reboot. You can then add a Google account, if you haven't already done so, in order for the Play Store to work. First app to install might be a superuser app (SuperUser, SuperSU, etc...).

Unzip the modified stock 3e recovery and place the uImage_recovery on your external SD card.
DO NOT UNZIP the other files. Just place the other zip files on your external SD card.
Reboot to recovery. The tablet will automatically detect and load the modified uImage_recovery file from the SD card instead of the stock internal recovery.
OPTIONAL: For Root... flash the root package .zip file.
OPTIONAL: For Gapps... flash the Gapps .zip file.
OPTIONAL: To return to Stock... flash the ROM .zip file. (There's no need to do this unless your tablet won't boot or you've messed something up after rooting.

Well, the China tabs like the NextBook is probably not the best device to first start mucking with Android... manufacturers such as these fail to release source code making it difficult for aspiring developers, such as shaunmt, to tinker and guide users with hacking and flashing custom ROMs etc.
I happen to learn a bit by owning devices that had a solid community base on a forum such as XDA, and then took the risk with messing around on those devices.

Agreed. It's been a long slow process of research and experimentation with these tablets. A Nexus device would probably be the best supported device to really learn from.

P.S. CWM v6 Recovery for this and other Nextbook models is currently in private beta testing and I expect to post a public release soon.

I just put everything on the SD card, I formatted it first. I don't think it has a root directory, or maybe it does and I don't know it.
Can you explain the steps to me please so I can have a better chance to get it right?
Thanks,

By root I meant on the SD without being in any folders.
The contents of the recovery zip needs to be unpacked onto the SD, only then can you start flashing.

Unique ECHOE ROM Flashing-Guide accepted by the Echoe ROM TEAM

Official:
Unique ECHOE-ROM Flashing-Guide
since v5 to v37 and up, still the best guide!
Always have a NANDROID Backup before changing anything on your device!
Please make a backup of your APP´s with e.g. Titanium-Backup to restore them after flashing!
Also it is advisable to make a backup of your contacts!
Note: You might have ROOT before getting custom recovery (CWM, TWRP, PhilZ) to work!
Flash MGA based Pre-Rooted ROM from DjeMBeY or ROOT your Phone to get it!
Users with NEW Bootloader simply flash a MI8 or higher pre-rooted ROM!
You have to build your System completely new to get a 100% working ECHOE ROM!
No "dirty flash" without wipe! Make it like I describe now or leave this Guide immediately!
​
You need the following for your Galaxy S4 I9505:
Device fully charged! =D--._.-----
Samsung USB connection cable to connect phone to PC
Micro SD-Card Reader for your PC (only if you have a micro-SD Card in the phone)
Samsung USB driver for PC Click here!
Latest Philz Touch Recovery Click here!
Odin (latest) ........................ Click here!
ECHOE ROM ....................... Click here!
Modem Collection .............. Click here!
Perhaps CSC Changer App Click here!
DOWNLOAD MODE:
(for Odin operations (.tar.md5 Files))
NOTE: You might have to extract downloaded .RAR file to get the inserted .tar .md5 file!
From switched OFF phone push the power button until the S4 vibrates, IMMEDIATELY push "volume DOWN" to enter download mode.
Push volume UP when you be asked!
Connect the Phone to PC with USB connection cable!
RECOVERY MODE:
(for Recovery operations (.zip Files)):
From switched OFF phone push the power button until the S4 vibrates, IMMEDIATELY push "volume UP" to enter recovery mode.
Process:
Prepare Phone:
1: ROOT YOUR PHONE like described above (if it´s not already rooted)!
2: Flash Philz Touch Recovery with Odin (as "PDA" or new Odin as "AP") or SGS4 flasher APP!
... Look at the above line "RECOVERY MODE" in this Guide how to start!
... If Philz Recovery asks you to fix ROOT (after you choose Reboot Now) choose NO !!!
Prepare SD-Card:
If you don´t have a Micro-SD Card just copy the downloaded EchoeRom ZIP to the internal SD!
3.: Switch OFF your phone and take out the micro SD-Card
4.: Put the micro SD-Card in a card reader and delete the folder ".android_secure"
.... It might work without deleting the ".android_secure" if you come from older ECHOE ROM Version (not tested by me)
5.: Copy the downloaded EchoeRom ZIP to the micro SD-Card
6.: Put the micro SD-Card back into the phone (DONT BOOT UP THE PHONE WITH INSERTED micro SD-Card, ".android_secure" is written again)!
Cleaning Phone:
7.: To completely clean your S4 and get rid of all older remaining´s you now start into Recovery Mode
... Look at the above line "RECOVERY MODE" in this Guide how to start!
8.: In the Settings of Philz Recovery choose:
8a: Advanced: Wipe Dalvic Cache
8b: Wipe Cache Partition
8c: Wipe Data/Factory Reset / Factory Reset
8d: Wipe Data/Factory Reset / "Clean before flash new ROM"
... Note: You have to flash a new ROM after doing point 8d !!!
... Stay into the Philz Recovery and read ahead!
Flashing ECHOE ROM:
9.: Because you stay into Philz Recovery hit the option "Install ZIP" then hit "choose zip from/storage/sdcard1" or internal SD and choose the EchoeRom ZIP
10.: After the flashing process finished go back to main menu and choose "Reboot System Now"
..... If Philz Recovery asks you to fix ROOT (after you choose Reboot Now) choose NO !!!
First Start:
11.: The first time the phone boot up take about 3-4 minutes
12.: After the phone has started do furthermore NOTHING for about 5 minutes (let the system set up in calm)
13.: Switch OFF the phone with the power-button
Flashing another Modem for your Echoe ROM Version (if the included modem is not working properly):
14.: Boot device into Download-Mode from switched off device (important)!
15.: Connect Phone to PC with the Samsung USB Cable!
16.: In Odin remove the "Auto Reboot" hook
17.: In Odin click on PHONE or newer Odin click on CP, load your Modem and press START
18.: Wait 3-4 minutes till there is a message: All threads completed. (succeed 1 / failed 0)
19.: Hold Power-Button for 10 seconds till phone resets (you feel the vibration)
Ready for take off!!! :laugh:
Phuuu... that was a ride... everything clean and new now!
Enjoy this famous ECHOE ROM!
Hit the :good:THANX Button if you enjoy!

I can't find an .android_secure folder anywhere on my SD card.
Just checked and the checksum is correct:
MD5 (/Users/Hate/Downloads/Echoe Illusion Rom v6_28Oct.zip) = 0fba4efafe95457a934cb50946bf552e
Same one as listed at http://d-h.st/AX5 the download link.
Prehaps the upload is corrupt?
Can anyone provide me with an alternative link? I don't want the themed version.
I'm trying downloading it with a different browser however I really cant see chrome being any problem at all?
Please someone help, I'm stuck with an expensive brick currently Well semi-brick :'(
I'd ideally like to fix it as its my only alarm clock!
Thanks
Hmmmmmm.
Just downloaded the themed version,
Wiped everything as instucted ( noticed it said Formatting external_sd/.android_secure despite me checking many time before and its not there, not even a hidden file or folder )
Getting the exact same error Can't open... bad...Can anyone help this is driving me crazy!

Did flashed the ROM like described above?
Did you use the inbuilt Faux Kernel?
Have you flashed the Modem like described in Point #18 ?
What is your Bootloader (old or new (with or without Knox)?
This works flawless! Many people have confirmed! :good:
This flashing method is beyond any doubt, it MUST work if you dont have made thinks wrong!

Flash a stock ROM with Odin first and then go ahead!
For new Bootloader you have to flash stock .tar.md5 XXUEMJ5 Firmware with ODIN.
For old Bootloader you have to fllash stock .tar.md5 XXUEMGA Firmware with ODIN.
Flash stock ROM with my Guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=46399517#post46399517
So you should have a starting point to continue with the ECHOE ROM Flashing guide!

Hi, really like your threads and just discovered this one.
I have a android.secure folder on my external sd card but am wondering, why I can't just delete that one, boot into recovery, wipe and flash the new ROM. In your steps you recommend to take out the card, put it into a card reader, delete the folder, put ROM on external sd card, put card in phone and boot into recovery. Wouldn't that be the same as if I delete it on my phone with a file Explorer and booting into recovery?
Or is this folder recreated while shutting the phone down?
Also, could you explain a bit why this particular folder can make problems?
Thanks in advance!!

I know mate!
I couldn´t delete the .android.secure folder from phone within! I think its used from System and should not be deleted while the system is runnig.
I don´t know what errors/problems this folder could make, I always removed it first.
I think friedrich420 has written that it should be deleted because of making problems when switching from stock ROM to e.g. ECHOE ROM!
SLIM - Yes, Full - No
Hi!
Huge Fan of Echoe Rom. I have a very weird issue with the echoe celstial voices goint to echoe illusion v7. Flashed celestial voices and worked like a charm. Then Illusion V6 Full came up. So downloaded and flashed it. Again worked like a charm. Then I tried the slim version and from there, something weird happened. echoe illusion v6 slim with no kitchen worked out fine, but game me random resets and freeze. So i tried goin back to full. But I cant flash the full version. But can go back to slim without a problem. tried it 20 times now but still getting stucked at boot logo. then v7 came out and still same results.
Cant post to echoerom thread directly due to restrictions. Please advice as to what should i do. Thanks in advance.

Sorry, me with another question regarding external sd + android_secure.folder:
I should take out the external sd, delete the folder and put the ROM on the external sd card. Now when i boot right into revovery will the folder be created again? Cause then it would make more sense to leave external sd card out and put the ROM on internal sd card and flash from there.
As I usually do a fullwipe, including formating internal sd card the ROM would be formated as well. So the ROM needs to be on the external sd card, but then again the android_secure folder might be created while booting up in recovery...i hope you understand my dilemma. :silly:

Thanks so much for the hint with android_secure folder! #
I had this weird issue that after flashing Echoe ROM Slim Version 3-6 that while booting up for the first time after flashing 4 apps where installed which where totally bloat stuff (such as "mytaxi" and some other shi*t)
I have a "free" Phone, so i always wondered what is happening as this couldn´t come from any "carrier" service. I also formated my external sd card but the problem was still there when i installed Slim V6.
With your methoed this time NO bloat App was installed after the reboot!
Thank you so much, i finally figured out what was causing this! :good:
