[Q] Cyanogenmod 10.1 upgrade to latest release - HTC Desire S

Hi
I have build 10.1-20130712-UNOFFICIAL-saga installed and working but with the SMS Not Send issue and the google maps flickering one of which is fixed in cm-10.1-20130808-UNOFFICIAL-saga, maybe both (?).
If I already have 10.1 installed what is the update path, do I need to clear any caches or can I just install the latest rom via fastboot?
Do i need to installed the boot.img again?
Thanks, still leaning!! :silly:

Wipe cache and Dalvik cache, flash the rom in recovery, flash the boot.img in fastboot, reboot.

Thank you for the info -
I cleared above caches, installed the rom in recovery and finally booted back to fast boot to flash boot.img as described above.
rebooted phone, call settings, messages, apps data etc... still in tact so cool beans!:laugh:
Many Thanks for the above.

[Help] Xoom MZ601 stuck at bootanimation

Hey everyone, I need help for my Xoom 3G MZ601, I just rooted it and flashed EOS' rom and I'm stuck at bootanimation. I'm new to rooting and flashing custom roms for tablets, its different in phones.
When you say you are stuck, what have you tried to do? Have you tried to get back into your custom recovery? If you can, you could try to reflash your rom and gapps after wiping cache and dalvik cache. You would have your system wiped when you unlocked, but you could wipe again before reflashing...that might help.
Yes, I wiped everything, I did this 5 times and the same thing happens, stuck in bootanim.

1. Do you have a backup of your stock rom? if you have a backup and recovery works you should be able to recover your stock system and everything will be allright.
2. If you don't have a backup enter this site motodev site (i can't post any links) download correct firmware for your device and flash every part of downloaded rom via fastboot.
I hope it will help you
It seems like your recovery img is the culprit, try downloading eos with goomanager..
try; adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery eos-recovery-r6.img http://goo.im/devs/teameos/recoveries/wingray/eos-recovery-r6-softkeys.img or http://goo.im/devs/teameos/recoveries/wingray/eos-recovery-r6.img
adb reboot recovery

Help me save my TF101

Well I dont think I totally screwed it up because I am able to get to the recovery but here is the scoop.
I decided I was going to root and install jellybean. So I used the 1 click method to root from [TOOL]"1-Click Transformer Root"-Root/Unroot/cwm/stock rec-TF101(G)/201/300T(G)/SL101 - xda-developers
I did the 1.1 verison. All went well tablet was rooted my stock rom still worked fine.
Then I went to flash jellybean rom which i did this one here v6.0 [ROM][JB][4.1.1] AOSP build #6.0.0 - xda-developers
Before i flashed i made a nand back up. and wiped all cache.
After install of RaymanFX's jellybean rom it got stuck after the splash animation.
I then tried to reflash it. Only to see the same result.
So I cleared all the cache again and ran the nand backup i made now i am stuck at asus splash screen.
Someone please tell me what i am missing.
Thank you in advance for any help.

[Q] CM11 - cannot get past the boot screen

Hi,
First, I followed the instructions in this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2507905
I installed the CWM recovery and then flashed the CM11-20131228 nightly and then the recommended Google Apps that are linked at their wiki: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Gapps#Downloads (I took the 20131208 ones)
Now my phone is stuck in the boot screen with the circle spinning around the cyanogenmod logo (I can boot the bootloader and recovery but when I try to boot CM11 it’s stuck) and I dont know how to get to a working cm11 rom. The guide said that the first boot with a new rom takes longer than usual because the phone rebuilds caches and so on but I think it should not take more than half an hour...
What I already tried is:
- Wiping the chaches with the CWM recovery an then booting cm11 -> still just the arrow spinning around the logo
- Wiping the caches with recovery and then re-flashing the same zip without flashing the google apps afterwards -> did not work
- Wiping and then pushing the newer cm11 nightly via adb so that I could try this one -> recovery did not find the pushed zip on my scdard
- Wiping, then tried to install the new nightly via adb sideload -> cmd prompt said it was send properly and as far as I can say the phone installed it but I was still stuck on that bootscreen ...
- I even restored to the stock 4.4.2 factory image and then flashed the cwm recovery, than wiped caches and then installed the latest cm11 nightly an then the google apps but I still can not get past the boot animation
What am I doing wrong and how can I get past the boot screen?
You talk about wiping caches but are you wiping data too?
Oh, yes. I just didnt mention it. I always did the three steps from the guide:
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
advanced > wipe dalvik cache

So you get the bootloop only when trying to install CM and when you flashed the factory image, it booted up fine?

Exactly.
I install the factory image with method 1 from this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2513701 and then flash CWM recovery to install CM (factory reset + wipe cache + wipe dalvik cache + install cm-zip + install gapps-zip) and then there is the bootloop.

Sometimes formatting all of the partitions (except the sd card) works.

I got another problem now ... The last thing I did was flashing the stock rom. Now I want to flash the latest CM nightly (20131229) but fastboot does not let me install cwm recovery and says
Code:
FAILED <remote: partition table doesn't exist>
I flashed the whole stock rom again but the error still occurs... I have to wipe the partitions after I installed CM, right?

Are you using

Where recovery.img is the cwm image file

I use this command. But I missed a c in recovery so fastboot did not find the partition named "reovery" >_< Ok, CWM is installed. Now I have to install CM11 an then wipe the 4 partitions you mentioned with cwm? Wheres the option to wipe system, I just find the other 3.

So I installed CM + Gapps and then wiped data, cache and dalvik cache with CWM. Now Im waiting for 8 minutes for the bootscreen to go away, but think it didnt work. By the way, if I wipe the system partition, I delete CM, dont I? I dont understand how that will help booting into CM.

Wipe before the install.
So,
1 Put rom zip on phone internal storage
2 Wipe partitions except internal storage
3 Flash rom
4 Flash GApps
5 Reboot

8 minutes is too long. You have some other problem. Do any other roms work? Wiping system in twrp does not wipe the internal sd card. That's why you didn't find it in cwm.

I will try the AOKP nightly and post the results. Is it okay to just wipe data, cache and dalvik cache before installing the aokp zip or is it better to flash the stock rom before flashing aokp?
No need to flash stock, just do the wipes

Update/dirty flashing Euphoria OS freezes at the Google boot screen

So every time I have dirty flashed Euphoria OS, it has frozen at the Google boot screen. This has forced me to wipe system, install the rom, install gapps, and reconfigure settings. What am I doing wrong that can't I update normally without having to wipe system?

What works for me is to wipe cache and davlik before I dirty flash the Rom.
Then after flashing the Rom, SuperSu......... etc wipe cache and davlik again before rebooting.
I have never had any problems dirty flashing Euphoria with this method on both Nexus 5 and Nexus 4.
One more thing. I always make sure to have the latest TWRP installed before I attempt any dirty flash.
Latest version as of this post is TWRP 2.8.5.2

I usually do both of those things. I will say that I used ROM Installer to update it, but then dirty flashed with twrp and it still didn't work. Maybe next week I should just straight out flash with TWRP first?
Okay I just did this today and the thing STILL happens. I'd flash the update, wipe dalvik/cache, then reboot system. Then it hangs on Google boot screen for at least 10 minutes. Then I go back to TWRP, wipe system, data, cache, and flash it again and then starts to work, but all my apps are gone. Why can't I just flash the update and have it done with it instead of constantly tinkering around? Am I doing something wrong? is this what a dirty flash is?
I noticed this in your Log

Are you undervolting?

See if this helps.
If you have many apps, try waiting 10 minutes or longer after wiping cache/davlik before rebooting into android. Or you could try a double wipe.
Apparently, it can take quite a while for cache to clear even if TWRP shows complete.

I've tried this several times yesterday, I think I waited 20 minutes and rebooted again to do the same thing. I also don't have that many apps, I only have 4 rows filled in my app drawer
Okay everyone, I found the problem! All I had to do was uninstall the driver/app for CF.lumen before flashing because it tampered with the /system partition making it unable to boot. I then installed it again after the flash was done.
