[Q] ROM install - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

HI All,
Finally my first post after a long time reading.
I apologise as I know this has probably been asked before so im not looking for a direct answer, maybe just a link to a thread.
I want to install CyanogenMod 10 ♦ V6 on my TF101, as this ismy first ROM install I would like some guidence to how to do it and if there are any prereqs and then on the success of this im going to get a JB mod for my S3
Regards
Chris

First off you`ll need to flash a custom recovery to your TF
This seems the best method so far
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1688012
Once you have custom recovery, you`ll need to download your custom ROM in .zip format for flashing in recovery
Download it (I recommend Team EOS #81 JellyBean) and copy it to the root of your SDCard or External MicroSD Card if your custom recovery supports it
If using EOS, I also recommend KAT Kernel 55d, brings a lot of fixes to the table over the stock kernel, same as above, copy the .zip to the sdcard or MicroSD
You're also going to need Gapps (Google Apps) - Download the latest version of that and again copy to SDCard or MicroSD
Now, boot to recovery (Hold Vol Down + Power when the tablet is turned off) when you see the text appear at the top, press Vol Up to Enter Recovery
Once in recovery, wipe the system and cache's etc to basically format your tablet ready for the new ROM
When done, choose to install zip from sdcard/MicroSD and find the ROM you downloaded,
Once the ROM is flashed, choose the Kernel (If you decided on EOS) and flash that the same way
And again, do the same for Gapps
Once everything is flashed, wipe the Cache and Dalvik Cache again
Now reboot, all being well you are done and the TF should boot into your new ROM
For other ROMs, Such as CM10 that you like the look of, same as above only replace EOS for CM10 and forget the Kernel unless you want it too

If it boots into CWM Recovery, then.... try the following:
Go to TF101 forum and find/download latest non-touch Clockwork Mod recovery zip.... I heard the touch versions don't work properly yet. Or you can try a different recovery called TWRP 2.3.1.1 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1818452
Put .ZIP on external SD card along with the ROM you wish to flash (make sure the ROM is bundled with a kernel.... safest, most stable ROM I would recommend is an ICS one such as Android Revolution HD... just browse or search the TF101 forum for it).
Get the SuperWipe script from Android Revolution HD ROM thread.... put this .ZIP on the external SD card also.
Now, reboot and go into your recovery. First do a Factory Wipe. Then run the SuperWipe .ZIP. Superwipe will format and clean out your data, system and cache.... finally, Wipe the Dalvik cache. On non-touch CWM recovery, this option is found under "Advanced"... also do a Fix Permissions (this is also found under Advanced).... then reboot.
Should be okay after that. No guarantee though.

SuperWipe wipe will erase and format INTERNAL sd system, and cache and data partitions. That is why you should always use an EXTERNAL sd card. Put your ROM zip, recovery zip and superwipe zip on an external SD and always use an external SD. This is how the manufacturer required updating this device also.
In addition, TWRP recovery has issues flashing certain roms because it fails to mount staging partition... I just realized this after testing it. So please flash clockwork mod recovery non-touch HYBRID..... The hybrid version works with flashing from internal and external SD, regardless, I but make sure it is hybrid because there are internal and external only versions. Flashing from internal sd is an OPTION on this device but the best method is always external.
Flashing a bootloader shouldn't be necessary unless you were tinkering with it before. But if you want you can search Tf101 forum for the tool to do that in the Reference sticky post on the Developer forum.
I have never had to mess with bootloader on this device..... But it's not impossible. I had to do bootloader upgrade on other devices when coming from gingerbread to honeycomb. So if you are coming from a 2.xx ROM to a 3.xx ROM then research that.

(Q) jellybam 1.3 won't flash

Hi guys. Al thou this is my first post I've been flashing my i9003 for a year or so and i've never had any problems until now.
I have an stock gingerbread installed (XXKPQ) that I flashed using odin, kernel version (2.6.35.7-CL709629 [email protected] #1)
Just so you know, I'm from Argentina, and in order to be able to use 3g, had to keep the modem in I9003LUBKB1 version.
I also flashed cf root (by Skin1980) and I'm using CWM v1.80
I get the latest jellybam (1.3) from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1972087
And followed the instructions in the official website : http://www.igio90.net/how-to-install/
Just in case you're too lazy to follow the link here are the instructions:
What to do if you are coming from a Stock, CyanogenMod, MIUI, AOKP and any other custom ROM different from JellyBam
-Download the latest revision of JellyBam ROM for your device
-Place the zip into your internal SDCard
-Boot into CWM recovery (Home+Power+Volume up until samsung logo appear)
-Wipe data/factory reset
-Wipe dalvik cache (Inside advanced tab)
-Install zip from internal SDCard
-Welcome to JellyBam!
(I had to wipe the data first and then put the zip in the sd card because wiping the data was erasing the jellybam zip)
The first time I run the installer it got stuck at 50% while installing sony's media player. So i just started the process again and uncheked sony walkman player, it installed "successfully".
When the phone restarted, it was just the old gingerbread, in the about phone panel, it was all the same that before installing jellybam.
So it obviously didn't installed. I can make calls, send and receive messages, wifi is working fine.
So can anyone tell me what am I doing wrong? Do i have to flash a jellybean kernel?, I dont really know hoe to do that but I'm sure there's more than one post around here that explains that process.
If this question has already been posted I'm really sorry, I did search for any post that could help me with this problem but I didn't find any real answer.
I really hope somebody can help me, and sorry for the bad english, I did study the language but it was a long time ago.
Thanks everybody, specially to developers, you're awesome.:good:
I think you should fist flash theJellyBam v1.1.0 alpha4 in order to repartition before flash the v1.3. hope it can help u.

First of all thank you for your helpful answer (I clicked the thank you button).
I have cwm version 5 and I have been having the same problem than the OP. I'd like to flash a CM rom before going on to JB 1.3 so my question is, knowing that I currently have an I9003XXKPR 2.3.6 rom, can I flash CM 10 or should I start by a previous version? And, if so, which one?
Thank you for your help.

i think you should start from zero. take a backup of your files, flash a stock rom and then use universal cf root to root your phone. then flash cm 10 alpha 4 and then the jellybam 1.3. that's the way i have flashed mine. i hope it helps.

Good luck! i hope you flash it correctly! just read and follow the instructions in the cm10 thread thoroughly so you can avoid any problems.
All custom rom unofficial, not compile, but directly modify our base cyanogen
It is recommended to start on a CM10 origin
Example A3 to A4
KPE> LF2> CF-LF2
Wipe Data / Factory Reset. (MUST DO THIS STEP)
Select the CM10 A4.zip from your SD Card and flash.
Auto rebooted into recovery (if it show error mounting / cache, and cant mount in manually mount and storage, do wipe / cache)
Go to Advanced -> Reboot Recovery
Select the CM10 A4.zip from your SD Card and flash again
Go to Advanced -> Reboot Recovery.
Mounts and Storage -> Format dbdata (you would not find this in CWM so just ignor 6)
8. reboot
You can then flash all based on Unofficial Alpha 4
Just do the basic procedure wipe

Help Please: Infuse steps to custom ROM

First i want to apologize if this has been answered, but i read so many things and maybe just confused myself. My infuse is on stock GB 2.3.6 (not rooted or any data to worry about), my goal is a stable custom ROM like CM10,slim Bean or any stable ROM you can recommend. Is there a step by step sort of a process i can follow to make this simple for a newbie? I am familiar with Heimdall and Odin but not sure where to start.
Thanks and i appreciate any help
First you need to be rooted and then get Clockworkmod cwm flashed! I suggest Enthropy cm9 , scott.hart.bti unofficial CM 10.1+ ROMs or Beanstalk( These are the most stable).
Remember different Gapps (Google apps) for different ROMs. If you already have CWM, then flash Enthropy's cm9 rom first. Then Scott's jellybeans and kitkat Hit thanks button! This is for att and unlocked infuse 4g.For Rogers, it's still the same except the mentioned back to stock tool.
Phase 1:
---------
To obtain CWM head over too Jscotts odin url.
1. download the file which includes root access.
"Stock UCLB3 with root
UCLB3_Unbrick_root_1.1.zip"
2. you will also need Samsung Kies, which will install
the usb driver for your Samsung galaxy. The link is on
the website.
3. Place your phone into Download mode
To do this, have your usb cable for your phone plugged
into the computer but disconnected from your phone.
shut off your phone. When the power is off press Volume
up and Volume down simultaneously, after the buttons
are pressed plug in the usb cable at the same time,
which should be connected to the computer.
This will place the phone in Download mode.
4. open the included Odin.exe, when you see the yellow
bar under ID:COM then everything is good.
Follow the rest of the instructions on jscotts website.
Finally when this procces is done, reboot into android.
Phase 2:
---------
1) Download SGS kernel flasher
2) Click on the link on jscotts website to download a
stock kernel which contains CWM. use "2013.04.30-
CWM-Synthesis-1.2Ghz.zip in the following link:

something is wrong, twice after flashing CM9, i was not able to boot in to the rom, instead it boots to recovery no matter what i did..
and the only way i could get back was to reflash back to stock with ODIN and both times it messed up after i tried to use rom manager to backup the CM9 rom. any ideas?
thanks
NOTE:MAKE SURE U'RE FLASHING EACH ROM WITH THEIR RESPECTIVE GAPPS or you'll get errors!!!If you have a backup of apps and contacts and pics,don't make any further ones.Once u start flashing continue on flashing
If you're back to stock with jscott's back to stock with root tool, before flashing any ROM,u need to flash a CWM recovery first like in the above guide.Then wipe,flash cm9,stuck at reboot,reboot to recovery,format system,cache,data,flash cm9,flash cm9 gapps,wipe cache partition,wipe dalvik cache,back,back,reboot SYSTEM NOT reboot recovery. Now phone is on,just complete the default menus in cm9.Don't adjust any further settings!
Make sure battery life is beyond 40% every time or u're dead!
Reboot to recovery.Wipe cache/factory reset.Flash unofficial cm10.2 (if incompatible/error appears,ignore and flash again) ,reboot system,if stuck at reboot,reboot to recovery again format data and cache, flash cm10.2 (OR BEANSTALK 4.3 ROM), flash CM10.2 GAPPS wipe cache partition and wipe Dalvik,back,reboot SYSTEM. Complete default procedures at start.
Make sure battery life is beyond 40% every time or u're dead!
Reboot to recovery.Wipe cache/factory reset.Flash unofficial CM11 v01/04/14, if stuck at reboot system,reboot to recovery again,format data,cache,flash cm11 again and flash cm11 GAPPS , wipe cache partition,wipe Dalvik cache,reboot SYSTEM.
This should be all the needed detailed steps
Remember to hit thanks

Actually, I just flashed KitKat directly from Gingerbread.
1. Flash the ROM from GB recovery
2. It will boot into the ROM, pull the battery and boot into CWM again. Wipe data, cache, etc. And flash the ROM again, but this time flash gapps as well. Wipe again after flashing, then reboot. It worked for me.

Is this method still working for you? I mean any weird issues yet?
I'm not the type that will change thing often so i stayed with 2.3.6 after seeing what i had to go through everytime something went wrong.can the same be done with CM11 maybe?
i might just give it a try
Thanks
Hello, I hope it's okay for me to chime in. I did basically all the steps you mentioned. Using ODIN and pit file to go back to stock -> Flash kernel with CWM -> Install CM9 -> CM10.2 -> CM11.
My problem is the same, I can not boot into any single CM rom I installed even though the installation process completed successfully, even after installing the rom twice. I will keep retrying to ODIN back to stock and get into CM9.

Yeah. Actually, I did it yesterday. It worked fine for me. The last wipe isn't ABSOLUTELY required, but I do it every time (the ROM tends to be a bit buggy then). But yeah, it works. Make a backup of apps and whatnot, wipe data, cache (you don't have to wipe dalvik cache), install the ROM, reboot (if it doesn't automatically), install ROM, GApps, wipe again and reboot. And your done! Lemme know if it doesn't work.
I followed this instruction to get into CM rom. Apparently, after flashing the rom, I have to not do anything and immediately reboot and let it stuck at the kernel screen. My mistake was wiping or flashing before rebooting.

It definitely is slower than my N4, but I can't wait to load some FLAC to it and enjoy the Wolfson DAC. I was going to repurchase the Samsung Captivate again, but I saw this model with larger screen and 0.2ghz faster so I went with it.

I strongly recommend to first go to CM9 to update the CWM. These are the instructions of the ROM developer who knows what he is talking. It takes less than 5 minutes to flash cm9 from stock GB with red CWM.After cm9, CWM will be blue, then flash again followed by cm9 gapps, wipe partition, reboot system(follow previous guide). Then flash CM11 with cm11 gapps(choose Paranoid Android mini modular gapps).
In all will take less than 10 minutes to flash cm9 and cm11. After flashing each ROM, do only default procedures and nothing else and flash again
Flash CM9 first!!!
The partition alert is normal. Just install ROM again with specific gapps

U are on cm11. If you are not getting any errors, enjoy it. If any future problems,a reboot of phone is sufficient. Any big errors or heavy battery draining, then just flash cm11 ROM and gapps again followed by wipe cache partition and wipe Dalvik cache.
For backups, if you want to have game and apps data stored for easy restore, use titanium backup pro and if u can't afford it, I regret to say, but side download it

For backups, if you want to have game and apps data stored for easy restore, use titanium backup pro and if u can't afford it, I regret to say, but side download it

There are alternatives like Helium and Super Backup. I don't really use Titanium Backup myself.

I tried to install kitkat 4.4.215 from GB CWM and i got a warning saying that partitions are incompatible and that all data will be wiped etc, should i proceed? all data has been backed up but is the partition warning something to worry about?
Thanks

No. That is normal. When you try to flash the ROM again, it will reboot automatically. It will bring you back to an updated blue CWM. Then just flash the ROM and GApps and wipe. Then reboot. Hope that helps!

For a while, I wasn't sure if scott.hart.bti even made a CM10.0 ROM. According to the changelog in this link, one existed:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1776129
Unfortunately, all that is available now is CM 10.1 and 10.2. 10.0 may have been removed because it seems (based on the Q&A thread), CM10 used 4.1.1 (the version affected by Heartbleed), not 4.1.2.
If you want to stick with CM 10.x, I would recommend 10.1. Here is the process (from Gingerbread):
Obtain CWM, this can be done using Jscotts Odin back to stock (Follow instructions and use SGS kernal flasher to obtain CWM)
Run Qksters IMEI backup script here
Make certain you are on ICS, this can be done by flashing Entropy's CM9
It is recommended now that you remove your SD Card
CWM: Wipe Cache / Factory Reset
Install ROM: Scroll down for downloads section
... The package will start to install..
... Phone will reboot into the install screen again...
... Continue to install [Automatically] If not manually flash again
... Phone will reboot again and be at the recovery screen...
Install Gapps

I am assuming you already have Slim Bean installed. Here's the thread to download:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34430995
To update, all you really need to do is download the final image, save it to the SD card, flash it with CWM/TWRP then clear the dalvik cache.
Don't think there is a need to flash gapps as well since you are not factory resetting in this case. Unless your current version of Slim Bean is not 4.2.x, then you will need gapps (and even then a factory reset would be recommended).
If you are looking to install from scratch, the guide above (in my previous post) is pretty standard (looks to be the same was what is provided in the link).

No kernel necessary. Just need CWM to start with (can access by performing the "three-finger-salute" - that is, while holding both volume keys, press the power button), and flash (install from zip) Entropy's CM9 with it's respective gapps. That will bring you to ICS and the right version of CWM (Blue I think). You are free to then flash Slim Bean.
Hope this explains better.

Have fun flashing!

[Q] Need HELP install Cyanogenmod on Samsung Galaxy s2 Skyrocket sgh-i727

I am willing to admit I have no clue how to install this ROM so please be nice.
This is my first time installing a ROM on my device.
My device is rooted and I checked if it was rooted by using RootChecker so that isn't a problem.
---
So I'm using this website in order to install Cyanogenmod for my Samsung Galaxy s2 SGH-i727:
teamchopsticks.org/p/cm110-release-notes
^^XDA wont let me post the link for some reason.^^
(please look at the link to understand my questions.)
1. I am confused on how you install the recovery, (number one) do you have to go into recovery mode then install it through there when you put it in your phone as a zip file? Then what?
2. When you install a compatible radio (in this case the AT&T skyrocket one) do you install it through the same process as number one? (install it then reboot?)
3. Are the "Wipe /data, /cache, and /system." all in one selection or where can i find the /system?
4. When it says flash does it basically mean install? I am super confused if you have to install all of these things on recovery mode or what. Does it matter if you have clockwork mod recovery or something else? I have something else relating to that but a bit different but works all the same.
I might not make sense but please understand I am a huge noob at this trying to get better at installing ROMs. if anyone could help me and not point how much of a noob I am would be really appreciated.
thanks!

I'm sorry but the link you posted is not working for me.
But you can always use CM Installer to automatically install cyanogenmod to your device.
use this link to install it
http://beta.download.cyanogenmod.org/install
oh and yes flash means install (Most of the time )
and you can find the Wipe Data and Wipe Cache options on the main screen of CWM Recovery. And Wipe System is "Format /system" under "mounts and storage "

Thank you.
I've given you a "thanks" <3
I also have an old s2. If you're already rooted, the rest is super easy.
Find either cwm or twrp version for your device and download it on your phone.
Then install an app from the play store called flashify. Open flashify and use it to install either cwm or twrp recovery which ever one you chose. I believe cwm works better with cyanogenmod.
Once that's done you now have a custom recovery.
Next download the cyanogenmod Rom specific to your device. In my experience I find that version 10.1.2 works the best and is super stable/bug free. And download the gapps that corresponds to the version of cyanogenmod that you chose.
Now boot into your new custom recovery by first turning off the phone. Hold down both volume buttons and hold down the power button until the phone vibrates. At this point release the power button, but keep holding down the volume keys. This will boot you into your custom recovery.
Click on wipe and select it. Don't do advanced wipe just a regular reset/wipe.
Before you install the new rom we want to make a backup of your stock Rom, this will save you if you ever mess something up.
So in your New recovery choose backup. Name this STOCK and create backup.
Now click on install in your custom recovery and choose install. Locate the cyanogenmod you downloaded and install it. Then click install again and locate the gapps you downloaded and install it. Go back to the wipe section of your recovery and choose to wipe cache and dalvik. And viola you are done, boot and enjoy. Hit me up if you have questions or problems.

Oh...the first time you boot will take awhile probably like 5 to 10 minutes so just let it sit there and be patient. Make sure your battery is at like 85% before you do any of this.
As for different recoveries I prefer twrp. Twrp will work fine for cyanogenmod version 10.1.2 but sometimes bugs out when trying to install version 11. Cwm will work for version 11.

I might try this. I have to install this manually because the app the user gave me above did not work and gave me errors even after i tried fixing it. I'll let you know if anything goes wrong
