The leading issue holding us back from releasing an official build (and nightlies) is the known /data & /cache corruption bug. This has been discussed heavily in may threads at this point so I'll be brief ... it appears to be recovery related, in that the filesystem is not being setup properly with recoveries build for CM10.1. At this point, we have engaged several folks from the CM team and have been hard at work to come up with a valid, complete solution. Progress is being made daily.

I've heard there is a TWRP 2.6.0.2 floating around somewhere. I haven't been able to find it though. I'm wondering if there might be anything in there to possibly address it?

Mikeyman and I are looking through their code now to see if we can build a version to solve the problem. Funny, because I was just talking to someone in IRC about us only supporting CWMR ... :angel: :silly:

Back to cwm, oh hell no. Lol

Meh. If you can't get TWRP working then I guess if we *have* to use CWM. But, like mtdew, we WON'T be happy about it! LOL

So, i'll ask again. Which recoveries got problem with FS corruption? just TWRP?
I've tested 10.2 only with CWM but it was working...
Found bug. Lockscreen shortcuts don't save .. they are still default.

ALL OF THEM your taking a risk it may not have happened yet but if it does nobody wants to hear it because you were warned earlier.

Guys I'm all for wanting 4.3 and being excited, I've been compiling pa. When our device maintainers say something though I listen. I have limited knowledge in how these guys do what they do but if they say don't flash with our current recoveries then don't do it they are running this by the proper channels I'm confident it will be resolved in due time. Talk to devs like @gs2usr and see if he can at least include the recovery.IMG built with the compiles and put a quick tut on his op.

can you describe me that FS corruption problem? .... ROM will stuck on boot .... blah blah
FS corruption ---- so reformat partition with corrupted FS
or will it do more? break partition table?
what i need to do after that?
reflash with odin? or got a brick in pocket?

When it hit me I did a factory wipe and full reset/wipe of all partitions and then reflashed and restored /data from a Nandroid backup.

I did this too (except internal sd) and got blank screen after the nandroid. Waited ten minutes, hard rebooted, waited another five or so and it finally sorted itself out. That was a scary fifteen minutes!

so reflash complete FW with Odin is best way? -- to hardly re-flash all partitions
right now i compiled new one, with more cherrypicking, lets try it out

Sorry, when I said wipe all partitions I meant system, data and cache/dalvik-cache, not *every* partition, I guess I should have been more clear.
Would it be safe to manually flash the latest recovery from Koushik and then use that to flash the ROM?

Excellent question. I've been trying to find one for 2 hours with no luck...

repairable or bricked?

So lastnight i was flashing my phone to cm9 from 10 because it was to buggy for me to use right now... I used the rom manager like i have before, i made a backup so i can have all my data when i go back to 10 in the future, but something went wrong during the flash and it aborted, I flashed it myself in recovery mode after that and now it just hangs on the boot menu, I have the same files I used before and they were working for a good week or so. I was still able to boot in recovery and download, so i flashed the stock firmware, both the new ics and gingerbread .tars with odin and still it hangs on the boot menu.. I try to do anything in recovery mode like delete data / format, and It also hangs with a little android dude and a blue circle spinning. Is this repairable still? If not can i reset my flash count so i can take it in to att?
Try reflashing your kernel
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2
Also try re downloading the rom. Bad downloads are always the cause of my boot loops. Do u know how to check md5? If not, Google it.
Edit...
Also, to answer your specific question: I think it's prolly repairable by you, since it at least boots. Did u try pulling battery?
Search for how to reset flash counter. That info is def available. Although I don't think you'll need it if you perform a few basic troubleshoots.

Im not sure what triggered it, but after flashing my phone 3 times lastnight i gave up, it didnt fix anything .. then today I reflashed the stock kernal and then I flashed the stock firmware once again and after that, it let me finally delete data/cache and format without hanging. booted right up after I did that.

As far as i'm aware, this is what most use. I'm pretty sure you can do it via recovery too, but i'm not sure if there's a difference.

[ROM][PORT] Leaked TMO Touchwiz 4.1.1

This thread is ONLY for historical reference now, see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1853337
Guys this is broken, but it does boot.
I don't really plan to do anything more with this, posting it for others to play with
Data for sure doesn't work, may just be APNs, may be a bigger issue (TMo has no LTE apparently?)
Probably many other things broken, but if you want to check out JellyBean Touchwiz, here you go.
Its just the TMO stock rom with the 4.1.1 OTA patched in and then pre-rooted
Includes a system and boot image. (unzip before odin'ing)
Enjoy!

If I wasn't already working on various projects for bean's ROM, I'd take my stab at getting some stuff to work. Or, knowing beans, perhaps he'll be jumping on this lol.
Thanks for Start!
Hopefully someone can do something with this! I'm one of the few that actually like
the new touchwiz, but I like Jelly Bean more. I'd prefer to have them both!
I love how quick the dev community works. I am also amazed at the rudeness of some people who don't contribute. Entitlement seems to be on the rise. XDA should have a thanks meter for allowing posts in the dev section instead of a post count.

today i accidently deleted all roms without even knowing it, when i went to flash another rom i did the wipe data and all that and when i went to choose another rom thier wasnt any now my phone just goes to the samsung screen and thats it ..how do i fix iT? and i am using a mac so i cannot download odin
can you get in to cwm recovery, if yes, then it depends where you put your rom, internal or external sdcard, copy the rom to both
So you wiped everything then didn't flash anything then tried to reboot?

I'd say the easiest route(if you can get it into download) might be to find a friend with a windows computer that you can borrow for a few minutes to load up odin and drop the stock rom back on it.

I've always believed in that, but find myself going against it by posting this.
I realize some of the newer members get annoying by constantly nagging & flashing wrong things & generally messing up their phone. Then asking for help.
But what good comes from laughing at someone or flaming someone who just smoked a $400 phone ?

apparently we are starting again. taking post #2
so, this thread is apparently just for my builds. since i already made it clear that i am not committed to actively working on the d2vzw, I'm assuming its to force the other devs into making their own threads for their roms.
quick faq:
I will probably keep building these for a while to keep people satisfied until cm releases official nightlies. no promises though
my builds will be given to cammykool, untested for him to post. I do not own a d2vzw, and cannot afford to go buy one. buy me one, and I'll be able to test and fix things.
my builds will almost always be only cm code, what they have pushed to github and fixes waiting to be merged. I don't feel like fixing bugs myself. the devs that actually own this device can do that, and I'll merge it into my builds as needed.
cammy wants me to push out new builds on a weekly basis. i have no idea why he likes my builds so much, but i can handle weekly or more frequent experimental untested builds
Re-subscribed Thank you, you guys are awesome!!!
Flashing as I type this! Thank you so much!

Seems that Wi-Fi is broken, at least it is for me. This is on a clean flash.

SD card was also still broken for me (I'm thinking it might just be my SD card at this point, I'm gonna try out another one), but everything else seemed to work fine.
I thought in the other thread I saw something about CM11 not flashing with TWRP... confirm/deny with this build?
This rom really needed this fresh new start Also, what is different from this build in the op and the 2013-11-13-unofficial by sspencer? Anything fixed in it that isnt in the sspencer build? Thanks
Gonna need a lot more clarity in the OP or else this thread will be exactly the same as the last one. I'll start by adding instructions:
THESE BUILDS ARE NOT 100% OPERATIONAL.
-They boot, I flashed it last night and everything worked for me (front camera, SD card, WiFi..etc) browser FC'd on me once but that might have been something else.
-You will probably get 2 galleries, not sure why or which one to disable, I didn't get that far.
Flash instructions:
-YOU MUST USE CWM, TWRP IS BROKEN
-Factory reset
-Wipe Dalvik / Cache
-Wipe system
-Wipe Data
-Flash ROM
-Boot up, let it sit for a minute
-Reboot recovery and flash the GAPPs in OP
-Reboot and sign in
-Profit.
These were pretty much the instructions last night, and the ones I followed and everything worked fine for me.

I literally just flashed back to 4.3.1 but I ran this build for the past 3 days including the version from yesterday and today. It is seriously close to being able to be used as a DD. TVall, it seems like you are developing this until CM releases so I thought I'd say what wasn't working for me. I did not have the SD card problem but i know many do. I did have these things not working...
1. Certain apps would not reinstall from the Play Store. When I tried it said USB Storage not found
2. When launching Google+ it says network not found retry. I can view Facebook and other apps that have to get on network just fine.
3. Unable to connect to XDA using tapatalk, although I'm not sure that one is rom related as I am now back on 4.3.1 and it is still hit or miss.
4. Overall seems kinda sluggish and i'm sure that will get ironed out as the rom gets more polished. I don't necessarily mean the OS is sluggish but apps are and opening apps takes a little longer
I will probably flash back later or tomorrow as I already miss the launcher but nothing too serious here for me. Like I said it is extremely close to DD status right now and I really liked the ROM and appreciate all of your hard work.
All in all seemed OK expect WiFi and SD card issue, that's the only things I noticed. And (beepea206) yes that is true about the not flashing it with TWRP.

issue was fixed in twrp 2.6.3.1 or 2.6.3.2, i don't remember. twrp 2.6.3.3 fixed bugs in .1.
at the time of this post, i believe 2.6.3.0 is the most recent build officially available for the d2vzw. this is why i prefer the nexus line

this build is made blindly by me. sspencer actually owns a d2vzw and can test and fix things. all i do is build and upload. his builds will be mostly working usually. mine will be just cm and fixes they make.
Download link not working
The download link for the ROM reads this when clicked:
"The file you are trying to download is no longer available.
This could be due to the following reasons:
The file has been removed because of a ToS/AUP violation.
Invalid URL - the link you are trying to access does not exist
The file has been deleted by the user."
I'm running the 4.4 from the older post before this one and would really like to update considering the front camera currently doesn't work on my ROM and may fix a few things. I've the link on multiple browsers and even installed the mega extension and it still doesn't work. Could you reupload?

[ROM][4.4.3][KTU84L][FLO] Stock ROM with Root *Odexed and DeOdexed*

Due to mine having issues with flashing in TWRP I encourage you all to grab @scrosler update from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2771012
Nice work sir.
Thanks for this.

PSA: somewhere along the line I was smart enough to derp up the root part. I tested via adb shell and it worked so I must have missed something when integrating it.
I'll fix the whole thing soon. in the mean time just flash SuperSU after you flash the ROM: http://download.chainfire.eu/446/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.99r3.zip
Installing now..thank you!

I'm sure we are all aware that 4.4.3 hit only a few hours ago!
I've been spending the past hour or so getting into an update zip and rooted and well, here it is!
IMPORTANT:
TWRP my recovery of choice did not work when flashing this, I cannot work out why (I think it's a TWRP issue with the new Android)
However I swapped over to Philz recovery and it flashes flawlessly. Please report if this works with CWM or other recoveries.
This odexed! de-odexed is coming

I may have derped root it worked for me but when testing another flash it failed, if you have problems flash this: http://download.chainfire.eu/446/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.99r3.zip
Enjoy

FYI: TWRP has nothing to do with what issue you may be having in regards to flashing. I have no problem with my stock rooted ROMS. Will flash on TWRP just fine. If you have an issue post the error and I can help you troubleshoot it. More than likely its bad binaries or something. Some recoveries are certainly more picky than others.
Also, you should post the device type so people dont try to flash this on the wrong version of Nexus 7 2013. There are a couple models.

hey bro
weird, when I flash in TWRP it leads to a recovery reboot, never had the issue before when making any mod/rom
I've clarified it's for FLO
If you wanna upload yours that are working in TWRP I can add them to the OP or close this thread and encourage users to move over
EDIT: just noticed your thread, I'll close this, thanks for your offer to help anyway

I will download yours and take a look. I have some free time. I bet its binary related or some oddity in the script.
No need to add mine to the OP. I uploaded and started a thread of my own. Sorry, hope I didint offend But when I saw that yours had issues I figured I would just upload what I had. I also have no issues with root.
You can certainly link to my thread in your OP if you want. Dont feel like you have to close your thread. Its up to you.
