Hi all,
I'm stuck. So first i wanted to root my GT-I9100G. I'm newbie in things such as "rooting", "oc'ing" an android device.. Ok so I've been changed only kernel from stock to lucifr 1.6uv. I did it with Odin, then i installed SU_busybox with CWM and yea.. Now i have a "yellow triangle" when i boot up my phone he he.. I did not changed the ROM. But then i concluded that my phone became very unstable and now i want to PERMANENTLY remove superuser, cwm and all the stuff witch came with custom kernel. I want to get back my device stock and clear again but i don't know how to... And yeah, when i connect my phone to kies, it shows i have available a new update from XXLA1 (witch i have right now) to XXLB1 and when i press update it does not do anything. Wata f? Maybe the problem is because i don't have a stock kernel? Help me please.
Im newbie here. Thanks.
Hi,
I just received my Motorola Xoom Wifi (running ICS 4.0.3). I am trying to update it to ICS 4.0.4, but I am having a problem doing so.
After the update is downloaded and the Xoom restarts, I see this message in the top left corner: "Entering Android Recovery Mode Reading ODM fuse:1", then the android is on its back with a red triangle and exclamation mark in it.
What does that mean?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
The red triangle thing is your recovery complaining about the update.zip,
If you are rooted, the ota update will not work. If on stock, hold on to wait for another ota to pop up and install. If your boot loader is unlocked, it might be of a reason... share more details, logs if possible..

I have the same problem as stated above.
My XOOM was unlocked and rooted with a stock Honeycomb ROM.
My son accepted the ICS update when offered yesterday which downloaded OK.
The XOOM is now in a loop. If I reboot using Vol+ and Power it boots into the old ROM, then reboots and tries to install the update but fails with the 'Triangle/Exclamation mark' symbol. I can't get out of this.
I presume this is because it was rooted as stated above, but what do I do now.
Do I have to remove Rooting? If so, how?
Can I remove the update package? How?
All help appreciated.
I had the same problem when I tried to update my rooted Xoom. Fixed by rebooting the Xoom (vol up + power), then going into CWM to clear the wiping both cache and dalvik cache. This stopped the loop and everything is back to normal.
I'm thinking whether to forget the UK update and GEDify instead and go to JB.
Problem Solved
Thanks for responding!
It's a brand new, unrooted Xoom (I believe). I solved the problem by unlocking the bootloader and flashing the Stock Honeycomb Rom (US GED Firmware). I'm currently running Jelly-bean
The instructions for unlocking the bootloader and flashing the stock rom, can be found by googling: GEDify your non-US WiFi Xoom – For n00bs

Same here. Decided to GEDify since I have no idea when UK will get JB.
Hey guys, I'm new to the community and I just wanted to post my 1st experience with rooting etc and follow up with a few questions!
A bit of background on my device: I've had my NS for just over 3 years now and I just recently decided (when I bought my Xperia V) that I'd like to play around with it a bit. To my knowledge, my device was one of the 1st in the country and a test dummy, and I purchased it from a friend who was working and testing for Samsung at the time. It was not linked or affiliated to Vodacom (who, if I'm correct, was the only network provider to offer the NS in S. Africa) or any other carrier for that matter. So basically due to the lack of link to any carrier, I've never received any updates or notifications to update, and have been running my stock 2.3.5 for 3 years!
Anyway, my story from yesterday was a huge learning experience. I decided that I wanted to root my NS and possibly try out a new kernel before deciding whether or not I wanted to install a custom ROM. I followed this link and managed to root my NS, install CWM recovery and everything was working pretty well using UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.65.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2034264
However I think I flashed the wrong kernel (marmite_v9.1) or for some other reason messed up, keep in mind that I was still running my stock GB which the phone came with. Either way, I was stuck on the Google boot screen for more than an hour. I fired up into fastboot and then recovery, but couldn't boot from there (I just realized that I DIDN'T make an actual backup ). To top it off I wiped the device (another great idea) and the device wouldn't boot into fastboot, giving me a "fastboot mode no boot recovery img" message. Somehow through flashing the CWM I managed to get the device into the correct fastboot mode, and eventually after digging for a few hours I managed to find this (stock?) soju GB ROM download, and managed to flash the boot and system images using fastboot, for some reason " fastboot flash userdata data.img" refused to flash. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=478820
Anyway, I managed to get back to GB 2.3.5, but get this, after about half an hour on charge, I was given an update to ICS 4.0.4 which I obviously jumped at, and to top it off, I also have JB 4.1.1 available. My NS has finally seen the light of ICS and JB!!
I have a few questions for those who have used ICS and JB though. On the NS, does stock JB provide a notable difference in battery life and speed? With it's hardware, is it capable of handling ICS and JB effectively?
Also, which version of marmite would be compatible with ICS? From what I've picked up, marmite 9.1 is compatible with JB, but is it compatible with ICS too, and if not, can someone please point me in the right direction for kernel(s) which work with ICS (not just marmite).
Second, are the Oxygen and Rasbeanjelly ROMs still up to date? When searching for Oxygen for NS on the forum, the most recent version I find is this which was posted over a year ago: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1605273
And this for Rasbeanjelly (among others): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2028718
When checking out fitsnugly.euroskank, I don't see anything for the NS. . But maybe I'll consider a shot at the PA and CM ROMs and try them both in a few days
Finally, and this 1 is way over my head, but how does CWM work? If I do a wipe before flashing a ROM/kernel, won't that wipe my backups? Do I need to partition my sd before wiping, or does CWM do that for me, and if it not, does wiping not touch the backups?
Anyway, thanks in advance, and I hope I haven't asked too many questions which have been answered before. If I have, please bare with me and point me to the correct discussion(s) and I'll go bug some other people.

Follow the link in my signature for a ROM review... I've heard debates over the best versions for battery life, but JB in my opinion is far superior to ICS... Oxygen is a great ROM, but it won't get more updates and kernels/mods ect.. Are harder to obtain.. It may be a bit challenging to do, but I'd use 4.1.2 JB (follow my chart) or skip to 4.3 JB (Mokee or Slimbean)

Speed yes. Battery life no.

There are stutters here and there. You need to overclock to obtain "optimal" ICS and JB performance. JB is smoother than ICS.

Normally it does not. Unless you select "wipe external sd card"
Hi guys,
My son of 9 wanted a telephone so I bought him a LG P920 3D because I can't afford a new one now. I wanted to install CyanogenMod cm-10-20131006-NIGHTLY-p920 and gapps-jb-20121011-signed. I have done it before with my own phone (S3) and tablet (TF101) and that went just fine.
Now with my son's phone something went wrong. It's now only showing the round CyanogenMod logo which keeps spinning and nothing more.
I especially bought ClockworkMod Touch Recovery to flash it with. Please help me because my little boy is very dissapointed and he got a present, a car you can control wireless with a phone and that was the reason why I wanted to flash it. So he could play with his new toy.
I did a factory reset so I started flashing with a clean phone. Please help me!
First install ICS V30A baseband use this video (you may need to go in to the stock recovery after flashing and do a factory reset is a problem arises during flashing)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FqC5qw6WRaY&feature=youtube_gdata_player
secound install WKparts bootloader and TWRP you can use a tool om this forum named simple tool can be found here everything you need is in the tool
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/p959msww1ol04s4/BUlrkRLEs7
and then load a rom on to the external SD card and flash it in TWRP or CWM touch i recomend
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2164367
if you want the newest CM although it's a bit more hassle with this 4.2.2 pacman rom as you need to delete the first line in updater script for it to work properly on ICS
@sioxz
thanks for your response but after a while I found out that I had to hold on the volume down (and not up!) + power + 3D button. I've read somewhere volume up so ofcourse nothing happened. Finally back in recovery I could flash again another rom and that went fine. But now I have another problem and that is I don't have a baseband version.
So no 3G!! What do I have to do to get a baseband?? I really have no idea, I've search everywhere but I couldn't find anything.

This what I have flashed:

i don't know where you can flash only the base band but the V30A haves baseband in it and it makes to that you have to flash the custom bootloader which works really good (can boot anything)
You can flash baseband with LG Flash Tool.

Can you please tell me how, step-by-step. I've read some tutorials here but they are so not easy to read because they always use so many different colors and fonts it becomes hard for me to understand what they are saying.
Mine is about as clear and detailed as you will find

CyanogenMod NIGHTLY-p920 unstable .

Hi all,
I am using OMNIROM 4.4.4 bigpart in my old EU Wingray XOOM 32GB but I have lots of performance and stability issues (browser crashes, apps freezing, very slow system....). After reinstalling it I still have problems and I want to check if it's due to the device itself...
To test that, I would like to go back to the stock Android 4.0.4 ICS that I was using in my European xoom before the jump to EOS, CM and OMNI.
Could anybody help me on how to go back to stock? Where to download the stock rom? how to remove bigpart? Is it really required to remove bigpart to install the stock rom?
Thanks for any help given.
The best way to go back to factory image is to go back to Android 3.1 honeycomb , firmware HW169
http://morningbeat.blogspot.ca/2012/02/convert-uk-or-other-motorola-xoom-to.html
once you are back to android 3.1, keep check update. until you get the latest 4.12 or stop at 4.0.4 if you wish.

Thanks a lot for answering.
So... I have to download the original Honeycomb software, "reflash it" and update until I get 4.0.4 or 4.1.2 ...
My doubt is ... do I have to "undo" the "bigpart"? Or will the stock firmware install perfectly in my "bigpart" xoom?
Thanks!
the bigpart issue I am not to sure of
Of course you need to undo BigPart. It's well document in Xoom Android development section of this forum.
You need to flash the non-big-part TWRP (2.8.0 or other), wipe everything, reboot intot TWRP, format Data, wipe everything again, reboot into TWRP again. Then you can flash original image using fastboot.
Just to stick my nose in, (and go slightly off topic) have you tried My Android Jellybean 4.2? before you go back to honeycomb you might want to give it a go, runs very smooth and very few bugs (if any!)

Eh?
I didn't find anything in forum, could somebody help me how can i go back from bigpart to stock partition?
I tried to go back to stock last month and it was a nightmare trying to get it to boot back after the update. My only advise is to leave the thing alone. Or do a wipe in twrp or cwm. BTW, I still can not get my device to boot or enter recovery after my dumb ass tried to get back stock firmware.

I just flashed mine from omni bigpart back to stock 3.1 cause my 1yr old daughter can't keep her hands off my phone...was time consuming researching how to do it. But it works perfectly...I wound up running some script somebody wrote and it pretty much did everything for me... not in front of my PC at the moment but if you are still fighting it PM me and I'll give ya everything you need...
