[Q] Can I skip an update of a ROM? - General Questions and Answers

Hello. Will ask the question straight:
Is it possible to skip an update of a custom rom and install the latest one?
Currently using the [ROM][DEV] CyanogenMod 10.1 JB 4.2.2 - Androidarmv6 [RC2 - 17/04/2013 Beta 7 and there are two updates (RC 1 & RC 2)
My point is if it's possible to update the ROM straight to RC 2 while skipping RC 1. Does it harm the smartphone and i assume it it safe to do it via the CWM.

Yes, you are safe to skip. The latest release will be having all updates from the previous release.

Thought so. Thanks mate!

You're perfectly safe. You're wiping the system partition anyway when you're installing a new ROM so no data would remain from the previous ROM.

It updated successfull. The ROM seems to lack a bit of ram memory gonna wait for a future release hoping for ram consume improvements. Thanks guys!

[Q] system update 4.0.4 with teamos 1.0 rom

Hello, i installed the teamos rom stable a week ago, and i'm very surprised to receive what it seems like an official update to 4.0.4. So i have a few questions :
1. Is it safe to accept this update ? I mean without loosing the teamos features ?
2. Could the teamos propose its updates the same way ?
Thank you
1. No. You will end up in a boot loop.
2. They don't have that capability to my knowledge.

Nope. I would not attempt it.
How do we get rid of the update notification if we are running TeamEOS or Other custom ROM?
Yea I am having the same issue with cyanogen. 9 rom. Anyway to bypass it

you need to get the paid version of Titanium Backup and freeze the android updater process to prevent the update notifications.
Edit.. well this worked on my phone to get rid of the notifications.. but i cant find the program that does it on CM9.. so i dont know

Is this for the wifi only model? Has ICS officially come out for the 4G models?
I'm getting the same notification but I cannot find the android update process as mentioned. Any ideas?

I agree the solution would be to upgrade to a 4.0.4 teamos version. Maybe they could tag this as a 1.5 stable So « simple users» like me wouldn't be afraid.
The problem still exists since a new 4.0.5 OTA would cause the same problem......

system update 4.0.4 with teamos 1.0 rom
I would never try to perform an official OTA update after a custom from has been installed. That is just asking for trouble. You also mentioned that you were running team eos's rom. I can tell you first hand experience, I've been a very loyal team EOS from user for my Xoom for several months and typically load every nightly they put out for my model. The reason I point this out, is because most times the developer roms xda are actually much further along than the official updates. The biggest example is the fact that ICS is not available officially from Motorola/Verizon as of yet. Plus you get so many features and functions you will likely not see in the official builds.
Others - feel free to help me explain, agree, disagree, etc....
Good luck,
®obert
I've tried many, and I mean many roms, mods, and themes. Hands down - Team EOS is the single most exciting, knowledgeable, helpful and down right customer oriented in the Android Development groups.

SPH-L170 d2spr update/upgrade Cynagenmod & gaaps

OK so I rooted my sprint galaxy s3, and installed cynagenmod with the current gaaps(at the time).
I have upgraded cynagenmod several times through
>settings>about phone>CynagenMod updates
At one point I stopped running cm updates because goomanger prompted me of a new version of gaaps. I was not sure if I needed the current gaaps to also update to a newer release of cynagenmod.
I am currently running
10.1-20130304-EXPEREMENTAL-d2spr-M2
I would like to upgrade to
10.1.2 (stable build)
I have TWRP as my recovery,
Can I just flash both the upgrade for cm and gaaps and not have to reset my phone?
I am not sure if I need to do a full fresh install, because I recall various upgrades making changes to the boot partition.
So I guess I am looking for the proper procedure to upgrade/update cm and gaaps.
When a fresh install is necessary, and the order in which gaaps needs to be installed..., before? simultaneously? Or after?
thanks
