First off, this is my first post (Woopty doo horraaaay) and I desperately need help.
I have a Wifi-Only Motorola Xoom, it used to be on 3.2.1, and I had it rooted, with only using the Tiamat 2.2.2 Moray root.
I've been wanting to upgrade to ICS for a while, and I finally am. I've had to reset my xoom back to stock 4 or 5 times now, and I'm annoyed and want to do it right. Starting off, my Xoom is starting on ICS, unlocked, unrooted.
I've done many different orders of stuff. First, I flashed the clockwork recovery mod, and then I go into it, and installed the EOS-Wingray-60, but after I did that, when I start up the xoom, it never loads, it stays on the "Team EOS" boot animation. I tested it, and left it on all night, and woke up and it was still on team eos. Next, I tried installing the universal root, (It worked), and THEN I installed the Wingray-60. Same problem, stuck on animation. I've repeated these several times, and am not sure what to do.
Pretty much all I want is to be able to overclock it. What order should I do when installing roots and things?
I have wingray-60, Rogue Kernal 2.0.2 Kuma, Universal root, Clockwork recovery mod, Tiamat 3.0.5 (Not sure what this is, but when I use it, it automatically aborts the install), and I have all of the **** to restore it back to factory + my original 3.2.1 backup rooted is saved.
What order should I use the installs in, and which ones should I use? And is there something I'm doing wrong?
To have ICS with Overclock, all you need is:
- Unlocked Bootloader
- Rooted
- CWM Recovery installed (Rogue)
- TeamEOS Wingray Build 60
- TeamEOS Google Apps V10.5
All the other stuff you listed, you can move to another folder for archive. You don't need it.
Follow these steps.
Use Titanium Backup to backup any applications and data you want to save. If you don't care about the apps/data, you can skip this step.
Boot into Recovery. Power off, when the Moto logo shows for about 1 sec, hold the Vol down. Select Android Recovery.
From CWM, select wipe data/factory reset **Warning - you will blow away all your apps/data *** See note about backing up first.
Follow these steps to ensure a clean first install. Select "wipe cache partition"
Select "Yes - Wipe Cache"
Select "advanced"
Select "Wipe Dalvik Cache"
Select "Yes - Wipe Dalvik Cache"
Select "+++++Go Back+++++"
Select Install from Zip, Select Zip. Navigate to your Team EOS ROM, and install it
IMMEDIATELY after the ROM is installed, install the Google APPS file via Select ZIP.
If you did everything correctly, Reboot. Now Team EOS boot animation should start and ICS will be available to you along with the Market. Restore your apps. Select from Settings to OC to your desired speed and enjoy.

Now, just to be clear, I should root with the universal root?
Do you have Titanium Backup or Rom Manager? Do you also have SU access?
If you do, you most likely have Root, but you can always re-root if you are unsure.

No, I had just restored my xoom back to factory. I just rerooted, using the universal root, then I wiped all my crap like you said, then I downloaded Eos 60, then I download Gapps and when I download gapps, my xoom says "E:Can't open /sdcard/EOS_GApps_ics_4.0.3_v9.zip (bad) Installation aborted".
Now what :|
You need to flash this version of the CMW Recovery. Without it, you cannot see/mount your SDCard.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074979
After flashing, reboot into recovery again and it should see the external SDCard which now contains your EOS ROM and EOS GApps. Flash those back to back and you should be good to go.
I CAN see my external SDCard!!!
If I couldn't see it, how could I even be rooted? That's a whole 'nother problem!
Sorry, but yeah, I can't see everything just fine. It's just Gapps is refusing to install, and everytime I install Eos 60, my device won't boot.

Okay... Relax lol
Please answer these questions
1. Have u checked the md5 sums on the gapps and the eos rom? They are provided and a bad installation can mean your files are buggered sooo check the md5 are correct for each file
2. Did you install the rogue recovery or the modded cwm recovery using fastboot? (not using rom manager or whatever)
3. Have you factory wiped before installing the rom?
4. Did you wipe cache and dalvik cache?
5. Did you install the rom then the. Gapps?
6. Did you fix permissions once you finished flashing both files?
Thanks

First off, I finally got the EOS rom to work perfectly fine. My problem was that I never wiped the system's cache data or dalvik. And where do I check the Md5 sum for the Gapps? Because they still are a "(bad)" file.
Yes, I use a perfectly fine recovery, not rom manager, what permissions need fixing? Thanks.

What IS md5, what does it need to be, and where do I check it? I don't understand the jibberish in the second half of your sentence.

Md5 is a unique hash that is calculated depending on the file.. When they match you have exactly what has been uploaded by the developer. When they dont that can be a cause of your problems.. I suggest u know and understand that for future for almost any file you download where one is provided... You can brick your device and it would be your own fault if you didnt check an md5.. So jibberish, hardly..
Now... Google a free md5 program for your computer and download n install it
Go to your relevant eos thread in first post there is a link for latest gapps packages...
Download the latest 10.5v if u havnt
Look at the md5 its displayed when you download the file or on the side of the file in the list...
Put the downloaded file in the md5 program on your computer and compare to the one provided..
Now try to flash this package within recovery...
Be sure to wipe caches, dalvik... Flash gapps.. Go to advanced then fix permissions... Then reboot.. See if it works.. If not try factory reset, wipe cache n dalvik, install rom, then gapps, then fix permissions.. Then reboot

I have been addicted to flashing new ROMs almost every other day on my DesireZ. On moving to SGS3, I started searching for a flashable zip that will do an extensive wiping for me without bothering me with wipe Data, wipe Cache, Wipe Dalvik etc.
I thought I will make one for myself. now that I have made and used it, I want to share it with others.
Now, I present it for NOTE II.

There are 4 Scripts:
1) MegaWipe
2) SuperWipe
3) SimpleWipe
4) Factory Reset
All 4 serve different purposes.
Megawipe: Use this zip to completely format your phone. It will delete everything in your phone and will bring it to bare bones. After it install any ROM for a fresh experience without any conflicts with in the frame work.It deletes the Data, Cache, System and Preload partitions of your internal memory. So Beware!
SuperWipe: This is a simple factory reset and you can use it to move from one ROM to another without bothering about framework conflicts.It deletes the Data Folders and Cache partitions of your internal memory.Will not affect the Internal SD card.
Factory Reset: Use it to do a Factory Reset, which wipes your Data partition, Cache Partition and Dalvik Cache. It will delete everything on your Internal SDcard.
SimpleWipe: A simple wipe is as the name suggests a Simple Cache and Dalvik wipe. You can use it to clear the said partitions before updating to a newer version of your ROM. Also, You can use it before you have flash a new ROM.
Also, I have read questions on how to completely wipe the phone..the MegaWipe zip will do it for you..just have a ROM to install on the ExtSdcard when you use it..

Many thanks to Zoot1 for creating this excellent Aroma Installer Zoot1's Wipe for Samsung Note 2.
Now, I have the same Aroma Installer Zoot1's Wipe for Samsung Note 2 as I have for my Samsung S3.
The Aroma Installer Zoot1's Wipe for Samsung S3.
Many thanks again Zoot1 for your hard work for creating Aroma Installer for both S3 and Note 2.
Best regards,
Thanks a lot, great app, but have to ask - Megawipe will delete anything from the personal data on the internal memory? Like Camera Folder / DCIM or anything in the SDCard root?
Appreciated!

It will delete everything everywhere except the external SDcard..use Superwipe if you want to keep the data on the Internal SDcard intact..
Hmmm...doesn't work for me
The script always freezes on the screen with the green android - sometime with the "wheel" showing and sometime before it shows.
I re-downloaded the app, but still the same thing.
I'm on a Note 2 N7100 from Germany, running CWM 6.0.1.9 and Omega V7.0.

Hi !
I was wondering why it is said that it's dangerous to wipe system on Note2 (hence Megawipe)
Using several Android devices with 4.1.x version and everything is fine when I wipe everything (system partition included)

It is just for people to keep in mind that it is dangerous if you don't know what you are doing..it will not harm your hardware..
Megawipe is best when installing a totally new ROM.

Hi and thanks for all the help and pre-thanks for any help on this. I am just a TAD paranoid from a previous flash.
I have been running CM10.1 20130330 and gapps 20130301 for 2 plus weeks now. It was pretty stable until I restored Talkback from my Titanium backup from the GB backup and then said, I am not blind and tried to remove it with TBU and it wouldn't install. Everything works ok with some warnings that::gmail, gaaps, email, TBU, etc have guit working, I press on and things work.
I want to flash the CM.1 20130416 and gapps 20121212.
Following http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1776129 Scott's directions for coming from JB 4.1 I would need to do a Factory reset?
CWM: Wipe Cache / Factory Reset Note: You should be fine without this step, but it is HIGHLY recommended as it makes certain all bugs are wiped clean. (Should be fine???)
Install ROM: Scroll down for downloads
Install OC kernel [Optional]: Scroll down for downloads (not using)
Install Gapps: Here (the latest for JB 4.2.1 - 12/12/12) - Working swipe! ---- Here (the latest for JB 4.1.2) - New GAPPs 10/11/2012
CWM: Wipe Cache Partition
CWM: Advanced/Wipe Dalvik Cache
Reboot
TWO questions:
1. Factry reset removes all my programs doesn't it (?) and I would need to re-install again, right? or restore from Titanium BU? or CWM Blue Restore?
2. I am reading about the nightlies and do you guys wipe everything every time or what?
I am getting the hang of it and enjoying basically a new phone and really don't want to go back to stock with this if I can avoid it.
Thanks for an awesome Forum

Since you are already having some fc issues from restoring I would recommend
1) Factory reset
2) Go to Mounts and storage
3) Format system
4) Format data
5) Format cache
6) Flash ROM, flash G-apps(either for 4.2.2 is fine)
7) Wipe dalvic
8) Reboot
Once you have done this either let playstore re-install apps, or install manually. Do NOT restore data

I will do this now, but when I go into the Advanced Menu, I am assuming CWM Blue, I only see repartition and not format. I also do not see system as an option. Am I missing something? I am searching threads for answers now. Thanks.

Hi everyone!
I have three questions.
1. a) The installation instruction on slimroms.net says you should do system partition wipe as well in addition to normal TWRP wipe. I used to do normal TWRP wipe only when I flashed SlimBean, and it worked (maybe not since it got bricked). Wiping system is actually necessary?
b) When you update the ROM, do you have to do full wipe again? Or can I just flash the ROM zip file after erasing cache/dalvik? I have long been curious about this since the first instruction always has this phrase: 'if you are coming from a different ROM'.
2. Is there a simpler way than using TitaniumBackup after flashing?
3. Do I need to flash updateSU zip file every time I flash the ROM?
Thank you in advance!

1.a. In TWRP > Wipe menu > You have an option to wipe the system partition so you just have to check it. Before doing this make sure that the option -rm is checked in TWRP settings.
1.b. Only wipe cache and dalvik cache for an update.
2. TB is one of the best apps to restore apps & data. You can also create a flashable zip to restore your backup.
3. Yes as long as SuperSU isn't fully implemented in the rom.

I flashed franco on SlimKat ROM. So, do I need to do full wipe when I update the ROM?
Or can I erase cache/dalvik > flash ROM > gapps > franco > SuperSU?

No. Wipe cache and dalvik is enough for an update so "cache/dalvik > flash ROM > gapps > franco > SuperSU" is correct.
I'm not sure for SlimKat but with some ROMs you don't need to flash GApps at each update.

Sorry for bothering you with similar questions, but I just wanted to make sure! When I change the kernel from franco to Trinity, I erase cache/dalvik and just flash Trinity, right? Only when I want to try out another ROM, I need to full wipe? Thanks.

If you didn't modify the rom=> you can flash a custom kernel WITHOUT any wipe
If you already change the kernel => you have to dirty flash your current rom (no wipe) then flash another custom kernel
If you want to try another rom => you have to full wipe: data+cache+dalvik+system

Not bad!
Use the Jan 16 version. As with any playing around, do a backup before flashing cm-11. If you need to do any sdcard partitioning, do it on the old version as these functions are not in this new version.

Yes, you flash the new recovery with the old recovery first. Reboot to new recovery. Remember to wipe user data/factory reset along with wiping Dalvik cache and formatting system from the mounts and storage item. Then install your CM11 ROM.

I would hope that the update.zip you are referring to is a flashable recovery. From the link posted it is. It's the newest recovery with support for KitKat ROMs. Flash this like you would flash anything else. IE; Install zip from sdcard. Then go to 'Advanced' and choose reboot recovery. This will reboot you in to the new recovery you just flashed.
From there do "Wipe data/factory reset" and then go to "Advanced" again and select "Wipe Dalvik cache". Go back to CWM main menu and then select "Mounts and storage". From there only select "Format /system". Back to CWM main menu. Select 'Install zip from sdcard'. If the ROM is on your external SD, which it should be, then choose "install from external sd". Confirm the installation and wait for it to install. Back to CWM main menu and choose reboot system. Voila!
Now I don't wanna seem harsh, but there are countless threads that explain how to flash a ROM/zip. XDA enforces using their search function to help prevent multiple threads of roughly the same content from being created. So in the future, please use the Search function before creating a new thread.

Good man, I'll try it
But after that I'll update I can install the cm7 if I wanted?
Clockwork 6.0 only flash cm10~cm11. If you like to install anothrer version, like cm9 or cm7 you have to flash first rhe clockwork 5.0. And then rwboot recovery and then flash zip. So, once you have downloaded the flashable zip for clock 5.0 and the wanted rom you have to do
1- Copy clock 5 and rom to sd card.
2- Reboot recovery
3- Flash clock 5
4- Reboot recovery
5- flash wanted rom under the rom instructions.
6- Enjoy

I cannot say if CM11 supports Hebrew or not, sorry. However, in order to install CM11 you need the newest recovery 6.0.4.6 as you've already figured out. That recovery, 6.0.4.6, will allow you to swap between CM10.2 and CM11 with no issues. To go back to older Android versions you will need to revert back to your older CWM first.
Clock 5.0 is capable of flash:
-CM7
-CM9
-CM10
-CM10.1
-CM10.2
Clock 6.0 is capable of flashing:
-CM10
-CM10.1
-CM10.2
-CM11
Hope it helps you.

CWM 5.0.2.0 can NOT flash CM11. You will get Status 7 error. You must upgrade recoveries to install CM11.
If you don't plan on having a GMail account attached to the device, have no need for the Play Store and some others, then no, don't flash GAPPs. Though I suspect you'll find that you will want/need to.
There is no safe way to increase the internal memory, as in change partition sizes, of these devices.

Sorry, no Skype for me. Yes you can downgrade CWM but I wouldn't advise it unless you are going to go back to an older version of Android.

I would make a backup of my current ROM with my current recovery before proceeding. After that it sounds like you've got the steps figured out

The backup statement I made was just a precaution. It's better to be safe than sorry.
I don't understand why you want to install CM11 and then downgrade your recovery. That makes no sense to me. Any flashable zips that need installed will also need the same recovery. CM11 added some new and reworked commands to the scripting language used to install flashable zips thru recovery. That's why you need to upgrade recoveries.
