apologies if this has been covered already.
I have an Asus Transformer Infinity TF700T, I installed cynogenmod 10 and gapps, and then wouldnt boot past splash screen, so I found out to install a new bootloader. after I did that, I could boot into Android, but it was like a brand new installation. My apps were all gone (which may or not be normal). I had to install a file manager and I found that my files are still there, so I wanted to reattempt a google app installation because I didn't have any google apps. When I booted, It requested a password. I have no idea what this password is supposed to be, and I can't find any info anywhere. so i gave up and hit cancel and nothing is mounted. I tried to mount stuff, but the screen seem unresponsive when i click those areas. I cant clear any data or anything because it isnt mounted, I cant restore my backup because nothing is mounted.
Please help me. Thanks in advance
I may have found something. Im using goomanager to install a later version I think
Ok, that fixed it. I just wish I could get all of the apps.

How to get back to stock if you are having issues:
1. You will need to flash a sbf, you can find guides here for Windows and here for Linux.
2. Reboot recovery by pressing X on the keyboard and turning it on
3. Press the search key so a menu pops up
4. Navigate to wipe data with the volume keys. Select with the camera button.
5. Then navigate to reboot with the volume keys and select with the camera key.
You are back to stock and you can root!
The File Manager was included in this rom so you are able to install the Bootstrap application so you can restore a back up or flash a different rom. Wipe your data after this.

Sweet, i am so excited for this. Gonna install it as soon as I get a chance, downloading now. I can't wait to see if you guys figure out custom kernels
Sent from my DROID2 using XDA App
I'm real curious to hear what you guys found that will allow custom kernels on this phone. I already read over what birdman and nenolod were trying and it seems they threw in the towel. I read some other posts on droidforums about initiating essentially a second boot second to trick the phone into loading a custom kernel, but nothing more on that topic. Really curious to see how you might be able to implement this
Nice work guys. I will probably give this a try this weekend.
I too would like to hear your theory on how to get a new kernel on the phone. Not in a hurry to see it happen, but just curious to hear the underlying theory.
Though, I do understand if you are waiting to get it released before sharing. Just don't forget to let the community know when/if you get it worked out. It will open a lot of doors for some of these rom cookers around here, and rom cookers of the future.
and just installed it, sans computer intervention (thank god nothing went wrong or I'd be SOL for 5 hours lol, im at work)
mounted, wiped cache/data, remounted, installed, remounted, and wiped cache/data again just to be safe
now I'm waiting for it to restore all my apps and stuff so I can get everything reconfigured and have a glorious blur free phone! thank you so much devs, this is fantastic
Hey guys, awesome ROM! Very stable so far!
One thing I noticed: The "Car Home" application shows up in Android Market, but the update fails when attempting to apply it. Not sure what the cause of this is just yet. If I can glean more information from my own testing, will let you know.
Thanks again for the work you've put into this!

I am not sure why that happens, but if you really want the new one from market, you can just remove it from /system/app and then it will install fine from market. I have had that issue with other apps before. Honestly, with a lot of these apps in the market now, there really isn't much need to include them in the rom.
Seems to work pretty well. Got stuck in a boot loop because I didn't wipe my data, so I rebooted recovery and wiped it. Problem solved.
The only problem I'm having is that I can't get Backup Assistant to work, so I can't restore my phone numbers.
I downloaded the stock app rar, and tried doing an ADB install for BackupAssistanceClient and BuaContactAdapter, but I get "Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_DEXOPT]".
I tried copying over BuaContactAdapter.apk and BackupAssistanceClient.apk manually (to /system/app) and setting permissions, but that doesn't seem to do anything.
Any ideas?

Export your contacts from the verizon website and then take that file and import it into gmail and sync your contatcs with gmail. Then, it doesn't matter which rom you install you'll have your contacts.

Here's what I did with another ROM. Go to VZW with your pc. Navigate to contacts. Export contact list as Outlook CSV. Go to your gmail acct and import the CSV. Sync phone contacts to gmail. Important to do the outlook export though. Regular CSV doesn't populate gmail contacts properly.
Just a quick question. If and when we flash this, are we still rooted? If so, can I just install bootstrap and reboot recovery and restore? Or do i have to do the whole root process again like if it was an original phone from store?
one thing with the bootloader i remember when i first got my eris was people on the fourms would keep emailing htc for the bootloader keys because it was hard to crack and htc gave them up ... maybe if we flood moto with emails and stuff they'll loosen up like htc
DL'ing now. If you guys want another mirror let me know.

Yes, it comes with root. No, you do not want to restore. Restoring will bring you back to the backup you created. This rom comes with Superuser.apk (root) no need to re-root.

I seem to remember the alpha thread saying not to flash themes over this....but don't think it was mentioned this go round....still the case? (assume so). Figured it was worth noting in the first post if that's the case.
Also....I just installed this, and am also stuck unable to get it programmed.
First time it started the music and then got a failed message. Since then I don't even get the music, and after 20 seconds or so I just get a "Please enter the # you're calling about" message and if entered, it just tries to transfer me to cust service.

Have you tried *22899 send? Should go straight into programing the phone
I know that there are tons of threads about this but none of them have helped. My market just will not work. It shows it downloading, then displays the message "Download failed" for a split second and disappears.
I have an HTC Desire (BravoC/CDMA) with the latest version of CyanogenMod 7 Nightly and ClockworkMod 2.5.0.9 for recovery. I also have Firerat's Custom MTD Partition. Details and links to all these can be found in my signature.
I feel like I've tried everything. Uninstall updates, Installed latest GApps, Installed old versions of GApps, Installed leaked versions of Gapps, cleared cache, formatted device.
This has been happening since the new market website was released. It really sucks, I can't update any apps or download any new apps.
If anyone can offer any help or suggestions I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you
Try removing SD card then try again. I had the same problem with my galaxy s I removed SD card backup on PC then I formatted it put it back in and market works perfect, don't ask me why but this worked for me

a little weird thing i noticed is,if i have checked the box that allows applications to be download to the external(Apps2sd) whatever i try to download, will be resulted with Unsuccessful. When i unchecked it, my downloads were successful.
See if you have it checked.
I discovered that it was a problem with the CSC file. I had exactly the same issue with a 'mixed up' firmware. Download would not work at all from the market. Anyhow, I flashed the phone (galaxy s) with a different CSC file and the market started downloading.
the only thing I had changed was that file.
So u may want to consider that Hope this helps.
I think there is also a possibility of going to applications --> market, and then stop & clear data.
same situation here...
re-flash the rom and market won't download anything.
But it's strange that I can install apps from web market.
i know i'm at the wrong thread but could somebody help me pls with sgs gingerbread im stuck at on command where it is saying that busybox is not a valid command and thats its not recognized
Thanks for all the suggestions guys, after some time I have discovered what was causing the market issue. It was the Firerat Custom MTD Partition Mod the whole time. Apparently the new version of the market deals with downloads a little differently now and doesn't get along with Firerat's mod.
So now the waiting game begins for a new update from Firerat.
Hi,
NOt a solution, but I found a workaround for this issue on my phone.
I am using Hyperdroid GBX V8 on my HTC HD2 now. From last 2 days I was struggling with this problem. I tried all solutions I found with google. Clearning everything and Reflashing, clearing the market and caches for other apps, reflashing, unmount/mount SDCARD and so on, smaller bigger recovery partition, without EXT3/4 partition.
Still the problem exist on the phone. But I found a workaround. Logon to market.android.com using your google id and password, select the app you want to install and click install. if your phone is up and live, it will be installed in a few seconds.
In other words, pull doesnt work, but push works .
Thanks.

Hiya everyone,
Been a long time user without any major problems. Today, my tablet, started to crash, having GAPPS and Play Services keep stopping, and then everything, mail, maps, plus loads of other apps, just stopping, pretty much 'bricking' the device.
I've spent the morning trying to install Lollipop (I've been on KitKat, via a Cyanogenmod ROM), but I cannot seem to install anything. I've got a newer ROM - cm-12.1-20150407-0546-UNOFFICIAL-p5100.zip, but every time I try to install it, I just get a Status 7 error message. If I try to install the original ROM I had, but that won't install either, with the same Status 7 error .
I've done a full wipe of cache, dev (thing), everything, but it's still not working. I've tried this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-2/help/probably-n00b-question-gt-5100-flashing-t3104842
But (the newest) version of Odin, won't let me install the CF-Root Download. I've tried it without the auto-restart, but when I go into Recovery Mode, it's on ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.2.7 and it won't install any of the MODS I have.
Please can someone help...I've been going mental all morning!
Quick a quick update, but I think there's something serisouly wrong.
Basically, everything is stopping, all the time. But I did try to move the ROM to the internal sdcard from the external one...it wouldn't copy. I then found I cannot delete or write anything to the internal memory, like it's write-protected or something.
I can't do anything, since every 30 seconds I get the barrage of '...has stopped. OK or Report...' and then they keep popping up.

Do you have a link? I've searched but can't find anything.
I've just tried to install GT-P5100_CWM_6.0.5.1.tar.md5, via Odin, it says everything was fine and goes to reboot, only to find the ClockWorkMod is still v6.0.2.7. So it's not updating anything.
I'm sure the internal storage isn't letting me write/delete anything.
[This was already posted, I just moved it to the Shield Q&A.]
As many of you may know, Nvidia has recalled their Shield Tablets. I'll be getting a replacement soon. I'll be rooting it as soon as possible when I get it, but first I have a few questions.
First of all, I rooted my tablet using a guide at IBTimes (that used info from XDA forums) installing CWM recovery.
After rooting I installed Link2SD, pretty much the reason I rooted, to save up some space on my internal memory. Everything was going fine, until I received the recall notice. I moved all my app files back to the internal memory, deleted Link2SD, ran a full unroot on SuperSU, (after a while of hanging on the "Please Wait" screen the app just crashed, it wouldn't load up and Root Checker said I had no root access after rebooting.
I don't know whether this was supposed to happen or whether it should have gone more smoothly, please give me an answer to this and tell me if it affected my system in any way) and fastboot flashed the stock recovery.img.
However when I tried to install the update, I got a red triangle error. After checking the log I got an error saying "Package expects build fingerprint of ... or ..., this device has ...."
I can't remember what the fingerprints were, but the first one was something that began with "nvidia/", had a bunch of numbers in the middle followed by an underscore, then it ended with "/release-keys".
However the device's current build fingerprint was exactly the same as the first, except that it cut off halfway through, right after the numbers and the underscore.
I tried resetting my cache, I tried a wipe of the user data. The only way to fix this for me was to re-install a bunch of stock images - recovery.img, boot.img, system.img, etc.
I don't want to wipe my data next time. So I ask for this in my answer:
- An explanation of what the error means
- How this error is caused
- A way to fix this error without wiping my device
- How to prevent this error
- If what happened to SuperSU in my case is normal and if it affected my device in some way
- And, if possible, a way to install the update successfully without getting this error and without having to unroot or remove CWM, and details on how to do this method and any risks.
Thanks in advance. An answer soon would be appreciated.
Quick answer:
- You don't need to restore to full stock before updating to the latest OTA. This is what I did, running a rooted stock system with TWRP recovery:
-- Go to Settings > About tablet > System updates and continue to click Check Now until the update has been found. I had to click like 4 or 5 times before it was found. It'll download automatically to your device (not your SD card), but I forget where that download location is... XD
-- once you've found your downloaded OTA.zip, copy it to a location you can easily find from your custom recovery.
-- reboot into custom recovery, flash OTA.zip, reflash superSU.zip, wipe cache NOT DATA, reboot
-- wait until device boots up, wait until the Optimizing blah blah process is done.
-- enjoy!
Additional thoughts:
- I've tried the Link2SD app, but I think it messes with my system in a way I don't like; personally I'd rather delete the apps I never use via custom recovery (see THIS THREAD on how to debloat your tablet for yourself!
- I think your error happened when you flashed stock recovery on top of the custom one. To prevent this next time, simply wait for either a flashable zip in THIS OTHER THREAD, or you can check to see if nVidia released any OTA3.1 recovery images if you want that full-stock experience.
Hope this helps!
