[Q] Updating Team EOS ICS 4.0.3 NIGHTLIES

Hi !
I have installed on my xoom wifi MZ604 Team EOS ICS ROM.
How to update the ROM?
I mean: How to update the nightly build?
My is Eos-wingray-47 build and i want to update to 48.
I need to flash it as a normal ROM?
And what about the G-APPS? Just flashing it?
no need to wipe? thanks

Wipe the cache and Dalvik Cache. Flash the new nightly build and then flas the Gapps. Do not reboot between flashing the nightly and Gapps.
That's how I have done it for every build since they got the camera working and not had a problem.

So I have to wipe?

No you don't need to wipe data, just the cache and Dalvik Cache (it's recommended that you do this to make sure old cache information won't cause issue with updated info).

OK...
And when flashing the G-APPS i dont need to wipe,right?
just cache?

No need to wipe anything when updating Gapps if you flash Gapps immediately after you flash the Eos Nightly.

It depends if you are changing versions of Gapps. If you are just reflashing Gapps after flashing each nightly then no. If you are flashing a different version of Gapps it depends. You need to look at the release notes for that version. If you were running version 9.x and upgrading to a 10.x version a full wipe was needed. Incremental 10.x upgrades, say from 10.1 to 10.2, did not need a full wipe.
The biggest thing that I have seen cause problems is that people are rebooting between flashing the nightly and Gapps. This is what I recommend.
-reboot into recovery
-perform a backup
-wipe the caches
-flash the new nightly
-flash Gapps
-reboot
I always perform the backup. Yes it takes some time, but when something goes wrong you always have the ability to revert back to a good working state. Well worth the few minutes it takes to have that peace of mind.

Flashing new Gapps and more.

Three questions:
I was on stock root66 for a while and I had done various tweaks such as system ui, pushing inverted gapps to the system/apps file and other minor tweaks. I am now on my first rom (Paranoid Android 2.13) with Justin bean inverted Gapps. Here come the questions.
1: My baseband is vralg7 on paranoid android Is this because I had flashed this radio on root66 before the aosp rom or is this the radio that is used in paranoid android?
2: Can I just flash a new Gapps if I want to? Is there any special procedure in order to remove the old gapps? Wipe cache and dalvik? ect?
3: If a new version of paranoid android is released, what is the process in order to flash the newer version? Also, if I were to switch to Jellywiz or another rom, what would be my procedure to get from Paranoid Android to jellywiz?
I have searched and I have not exactly found the clear cut answers that I am looking for. Thank you in advance for your time.

The radio aka modem aka baseband was installed when you either accepted the latest OTA or installed it by itself. If you flash roms, this will not change. Modems are installed independent of roms UNLESS it's a Verizon OTA update. PA is likely still based on VRLG1 (like all other roms are at this moment) because either they haven't updated or the source for the latest Verizon OTA was not officially released yet. I'm not an expert on how new vs. old radios work with LTE phones since they often introduce newer versions of a file like RIL within the update itself.

Not sure about flashing whichever Gapps whenever you want to. When you install an AOSP rom it tells you which one to download. If AOSP JB IDKIDC rom requires JB IDKIDC Gapps then you must install that specific file. You can reflash the specific Gapps that is required for the rom at a later date if you notice certain Google apps are acting unusual. Does this answer your question? I usually don't mix and match Gapps across different roms if they don't utilize the same exact Gapps file which happens on newer versions of Android sometimes. Normally, they use the same Gapps but sometimes they don't.
3: If a new version of paranoid android is released, what is the process in order to flash the newer version? Also, if I were to switch to Jellywiz or another rom, what would be my procedure to get from Paranoid Android to jellywiz?

To update from an older build of PA (Paranoid Android) to a newer build of PA: just wipe cache and dalvik cache then flash the newer version OR don't wipe anything and flash the newer version (this is known as a dirty flash or flashover). If you notice issues, do a full wipe and flash the rom. Sometimes the developer changes a lot between releases and if you actively follow that thread, you will see if they announce that you need to fully wipe for the newest update or not. If they release a newer build and don't mention it whether to full wipe or not, either ask politely or likely someone else will.
Going from PA to another rom (one rom to another): full wipe, no excuses. A full wipe is at least Format data, wipe cache, and wipe dalvik cache.

How to update gapps only

I'm very much a newbie so please forgive...
goomanager is asking me to update my gapps to JB 4.1.2 for my AOKP ms 1. Currently using gapps for JB 4.1.1. Yet interestingly, the AOKP is JB 4.1.2 but their gapps link gave me gapps for JB 4.1.1
Question 1
What exactly do I need to wipe (if any) before flashing an updated gapps into an existing rom that it should be compatible with?

Wipe cache and dalvik cache then flash GAPPS. Usually though you flash the rom then gapps immediately after. Never really done just gapps alone

[Q] 4.1 ROM Recommendations

Hi all. Like the title says, I need a 4.1 ROM. 4.2 and .3 do not work with WiiMote app. I use this function a lot. I'm new to TF so I don't know my way around. I came from the Iconia which had 4.1. Can anyone recommend a stable decent performing ROM with 4.1?
Thanks

TeamEOS 3 #81 was a great 4.1 ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1782410
ROM
http://goo-inside.me/devs/teameos/roms/eos3/nightlies/tf101//EOS-tf101-20121027-81.zip
Recommended Kernel (Really improves performance)
KatKernel_70_Lidpatch.zip
Gapps (I forget which version we used to use, but I guess these should work)
http://goo-inside.me/gapps//gapps-jb-20121212-signed.zip
Make sure you are running TWRP Recovery prior to flashing the ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1818452
Flash TWRP
Boot into TWRP Recovery
Wipe SYSTEM / CACHE / DALVIK CACHE (Optionally Wipe DATA / FACTORY RESET etc etc for 100% clean install)
Flash ROM
Flash Kernel
Flash Gapps
Wipe CACHE & DALVIK CACHE
Reboot

Thanks Detection. I'll check it out. It makes sense since I've been using KatKiss 4.2 so far and really like it. I think I read that he was part of EOS originally. Should be good.

Yep that's true, TeamEOS became what is now KatKiss and was definitely one of, if not the most popular ROMs for the TF back then

[Q] Update to latest nightly (CM12.1)

i can only answer this surely if you tell us which rom/ version you currently using .... but if you allready on CM12.1 update this way:
(dirty install):
backup current rom (in case of problems)
in recovery install the new update
wipe cache + dalvic-cache
now, if you get any issues or FC's etc... you will need a clean install (fatcory reset / data wipe)
remeber this rom is still under development so sometimes a clean install in fact is needed...
