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.

[Q] Installing Hellfire Phoenix

I'm about to get a g2x very soon, and i heard that the stock rom sucks and that Hellfire Pheonix's is best. The instructions given on the op was not very beginner friendly, so i'm a bit confuse. This is going to be my first android and i would appreciate it if someone could link me to some sort of reference and tutorial for the installation of Hellfire Phoenix.
I've searched and google, but i had no luck. If you guys know if a detailed tutorial is out there, then just tell me and i'll put more effort into finding my answer. Thank you very much.
EDIT: To be more specific, what threw me off was "DO NOT use CWM to load the rom to your SD card. CWM has been known to cause file corruption when using it to transfer the zip file.". From all the tutorials that i've read and seen, they all use cwm. what are the alternatives?

What it means is don't boot into CWM and mount usb storage and copy files to sd card from there because it is known to corrupt the file and then could end up in a bad flash and it could harm ur phone.
When ur gonna copy the rom ur gonna flash to ur sd card, make sure ur booted into android first and mount usb storage from there.
Hope this helped

Correct.
Now, to fully answer your question:
Ok, adding this in after I wrote this to make things clearer: before starting make sure you:
1. Have G2x scrubber in the root of your SD card
2. Have the zip for your ROM (HFP in this case) in the root of your SD card
3. Have a copy of gapps (Google Apps) in the root of your sd card, get it here
4. After flashing CWM make a back-up (nandroid) of your stock ROM via CWM
First you need to flash Clockwork Mod (CWM) on your phone go here for that:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1056847
Also, note: NEVER use ROM manager to flash CWM.
Second grab G2x scrubber from the HFP thread.
Next boot into CWM by holding volume down and power at the same time as the phone starts up. I find it helpful to count to three (eg, one one thousand, two one thousand, etc) after the blue and white (as opposed to plain white) LG logo first appears, that way you will have your finger off the power button when CWM starts. And in case it needs to be explained: you navigate CWM via the volume keys and make selections with the power button.
So, having downloaded G2x scrubber to your phone, go to "install zip from SD card" then "choose zip from SDcard" and navigate to G2x scrubber, run it twice.
Once that is done, use the same install zip option and this time choose the HFP zip.
Next select the gapps zip and flash it.
You're all done. Reboot and enjoy.

Thanks for the helpful replies! I feel very confident about modding my g2x when i get it now!
EDIT: Do i need to root my phone if i'm going to install HFP?

No, just use NVFlasher to flash ClockWorkMod Recovery, then flash your rom. You'll be rooted when you finish.

I found good guides on TheUnlockr. There are links in the thread discussing Hellfire Sandwich (HFS). If you don't need wifi calling or the ability to take video I would recommend using HFS v1.2. It is an update to ICS (Android 4.0.x) but it is not completely stable yet.

[Q] Cant Install Rom? Me or File

Ive already flashed my phone acouple of times over the past couple years. But I tried downloading GloriousOverDose V5. At my current location the internet connection is horribly slow.
I have red voodoo so I know its not a mounting issue
Wipe Data
Wipe Cache
Install zip from SD, selecting file
starting unpacking
Installation Aborted: Bad
Im guessing the Download got messed up because of connection speed? Or am I just missing something here?
Thanks

there are issues with it but it shouldnt abort installation out right, i would assume a bad download and would check the md5sum
If you need im sure i or another can post a mirror, i like dev-host for the only limitation is speed but they never take down link and well theyre free!
but yeah GOV5 is a work in progress right now and you may need to flash ROM, then flash the package again, this time skipping ROM and doing the rest... not fun and it does appear to be a mount issue but im in the middle of too many projjects right now to finish fixing it... maybe the weekend...

no worries
No Worries Mate, Aint in no rush. Having some phone issues so i thought I would swap to something more updated. I'll just try something else for a couple days then come back and try again.
Thanks again

Found the Fault
i tried a new download and tada, didnt notice before but the download never "finished" the zip was still spereated into a zip.part file and never combined... *sigh* second download was a success, installed with no issues... But with the aroma installer i find myself wiping it every 10 minutes to look at all the options lol.
Is aroma only available on a fresh boot? or is there a backdoor to add/delete without reflashing the rom?

work in progress
Love the concept of this. Cant wait to see when up and running perfectly. Is there issues with aroma installer? I select the programs i want but none seem to make them to the phone? lol or is it me again?

Don't use the download from first post, use the one on the second or so page I posted.
There is an issue right now, first flash ROM and nothing else, then exit aroma but no need to reboot. After this choose flash zip again, say no to flashing ROM and here choose what you want to install. There is an issue with the mounts that is connected partly to how aroma works and partly to how the recovery for this phone works,
I'm working on this and may in the end have to build a whole new recovery.

Have you flashed the Modem like described in Point #18 ?
What is your Bootloader (old or new (with or without Knox)?

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.

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 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:

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.

Man! The folder is created from the Android System not from recovery!
Make it like I said in the Guide and that's it!

DUUUUDE!!
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:

[Q] Installing Illusion Rom 2.6 S3

I'm pretty new at installing Roms and such, but I do have a successful install of the Illusion Rom 2.6 Beta on my phone. I tried to update, and I couldn't get the file to install.
I use ClockworkMod, and when I try to install the ZIP from my external SD, it tells me there's something wrong with the file. I have downloaded it multiple times, thinking maybe it was a corrupted copy I put on. Same results. (Now, I could be missing something, as the file is listed as a Grouper, and I'm not sure what that means.)
Any suggestions or info would be very helpful. Thank you!

As you wrote, the file may be corrupted during downlad. Why don't you check the MD5 ( check with google to learn how). Another reason that, the file may be something else than the required rom.
