Flashed through CWM and no errors. Will edit if any issues with wifi or anything else. Its optimizing all apps now, which takes my phone 3-5mins.

Installed, and now some of my apps are missing, and I can't re-download them in the play store due to an error about not being able to write to SD card.
I guess I derped.. Back to faux

The old installer I think flashed modules but not kernel so it might have messed up the current kernel

When I flash this kernel, wipe cache, reboot.. It reboots fine.. But I noticed 7 of my apps just vanished.. XDA included... Was confused.. Went to play store and they weren't installed, tried to install then an error pops up after download saying I can't write to SD card/USB storage... Flashed faux's kernel, my apps are back and phone is normal.

It's a known issue by now. Hope the Dev can fix it because faux kernel has bam_dmux wake lock issues.

ok, I see that there were different modules in faux's kernel than what was in /system/lib/modules
I added a line to delete all modules before installing the new.
this is the code:
Code:
ui_print("Mounting System");
ui_print("");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
ui_print("Removing existing modules");
ui_print("");
delete_recursive("/system/lib/modules");
ui_print("Installing modules");
ui_print("");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
set_perm_recursive(0, 0, 0755, 0644, "/system/lib/modules");
ui_print("Unmounting system");
ui_print("");
unmount("/system");
ui_print("Installing kernel");
package_extract_file("boot.img", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot");
ui_print("Installation complete");
ui_print("");
I dont see whats causing some of yall to lose apps :/ its basically removing the /modules folder, installing the new /modules folder (pulled from stock system dump) assigning them permissions, then installing the kernel (the kernel from the unsecure kernel that is posted in the android dev section by @dottat - thanks for the kernel)
so the only change to this is wiping out all the modules and installing the stock /sysem/lib/modules

P.S... also....I heared about "gapps"...what is it and do I need it at all? When is the official 2.3.x (gingerbread) coming from Tmobile? I just want GB on my g2x
make sure u flashed clockwork recovery via NVflasher to TRULY gain a mod recovery. I always put the roms I wanna flash onto my phone's memory and NOT the microSD card. maybe that'll help.
Looks like a corrupt download. Delete the zip and try downloading again.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
Thnx for the reply. I tought I heard to have the ROMS in external memory card. Cuz, for example that's where clockworkmod backs up your nandroid.
Where do you place the ROMS(most roms have like 3 files in a compressed zip format.......i.e example.....the eagleblood ROM name is EagleBlood1.04.zip when u download it....inside the zip, theres two folders.....META-INF and "system".....a file called "boot.img" and another one called "installbusybox"...so where in the internal phone memory do u put the whole zip folder......?
put the WHOLE rom.zip on your memory. don't unzip anything.
+1 on the post above. redownload the rom and try flashing again.
after you flash the rom, flash gapps (this is the installer that includes market, gmail, etc.) You need it in order to get access to the market
Your steps should be as follows
1. Wipe Data
2. Wipe Dalvik cache
3. Flash Rom
4. Flash gapps
5. fix permissions
6. reboot
EDIT: and don't unzip anything. Place the WHOLE eaglesblood.zip file on your SD Card

They all say the same....I got them from the cyanogenmod website......even Eagleblood1.04 from here.
funny thing i noticed tho, after I tried installing a rom, but of course it fails, I connect the phone to USB, go to external memory card, try to open the ROM zip file, it wont open....says "X:\EagleBlood1.04.zip The archive is either in unknown format or damaged"
Maybe it gets damaged or currupted during the time its trying to flash the files to the phone???

thanks....where do I get gapps and how do i go about installing it....I need to install it AFTER sucessfully flashing a rom, right?
Kinda new to the whole android thing, but not to modding devices...I started it when I got the $500+ moto RAZR when it came out, the psp, wii, ps3, itouch, etc. enuff about me....lets stay on topic
hehe me too, started with my verizon razr as well.
You can get gapps from here:

Like R2 mentioned, a factory data reset might be helpful. You'll lose installed apps, you'll have to re-setup your Google account stuff, you'll lose phone logs, memos, and IMs. Someone else jump in here if I left something out.

Yes, go back and reflash drhonk's KD1, but make sure you have the mounts right before you do.
- Boot into CWM recovery
- Go into "mounts and storage"
- unmount /cache
- mount /data
- mount /sdcard
- unmount /system
- Go back
- Go into "install zip from sdcard"
- Go into "Choose zip from sdcard"
- find where you downloaded drhonk's KD1, and flash it.

Did you try what Raver said? Setting, manage all apps, force close the market, clear data and reopen. I was hanging a problem downloading apps and I ended up having to delete the market and push another Vending.apk file.

[Q] Installing SCV7 on ICS Leak #1

Hey guys!
I am kind of new to this scene, but i got ICS Leak #1 installed on my ATT A2 working fine, but i want to try to get scv7 on it. I am not sure how to install it. I have installed other ROMs in the past while on GB but since now there are 2 different leaks, i want to make sure that i dont mess my phone up and brick my it.
While, scrolling down on the scv7 thread, i can see this link.
RESTORE LEAK #1 in Bootmenu as first system
SCV7 ICS Leak #1 Based (July 6th 2012 ICS)
http://www.androidfilehost.com/main/.../SCV7/SCV7.zip
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Is this the file i am supposed to download? Also, there is no steps for that... Only on the leak #2 do they show the steps. Do i need to wipe/factory reset? So I install it from SD or treat it like a backup?
I just want to make sure of these things before i do anything stupid. I have backed my phone up with the Boot Menu Manager that i downloaded from the Play Store.
Just in case: THIS was the method i used, as well as that same download link for the ICS OTA.
Thanks in advance!
Download the link you posted.
Boot into boot menu
Wipe data/factory reset

Hey, you did it. I guess I missed this one too. Thank you so much. Tu estas un dev.
Edit: Ok, there is 71mb in (uncompressed) in the cache folder of the zip, so I guess that it will still require some trimming. But comparing it to other gapps packages, I think that this will be fairly easy to do. Again... muchas gracias mi hermano. Tu estas el primo.

Ok, I've successfully installed this with cm10.2. Took out gnow and a few unnecessary libs. Also copied Googletts.apk and libpatts_engine_jni_api.so to /system (fc issue). Rebooted, and it's all still there. Beautiful... just beautiful.:beer:

Nice!
It is possible to install them on /data partition instead of /cache.
Just arguing installing int2ext+ script directly on the rom (like i'm used to do) and then install gapps on data will save more space and we can wipe cache!

I believe that would require changing the mount statement and all of the symlinks in the updater script. Then your script would symlink gapps again, from /data/app to sd-ext. Double linking. I prefer the /cache method. It's hard enough to fit all my user apps in /data, even with link2sd, or some script. I noticed that somehow the /cache/dalvik-cache folder is empty. And the only other subfolder of /cache that seems to contain anything is recovery (log, 16kb). I just don't see anything that would need to be wiped.
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda app-developers app
[Noob][Q] Link2sd and wiping cache?
I would like to flash this /cache gapps.
Just two questions that I am not sure about what can happen:
- Can I use link2sd to link whatever apps to /sd-ext? Will it leave the gapps in /cache in place untouched or in some way link2sd interfere with it?
- Is the /cache partition used the same that will be used for app caching? What happens if I clear cache by mistake? That is, from recovery, or from any app that has "clear cache" option (e.g. link2sd, Titanium Backup etc etc)? Will I have to reinstall gapps, or it's a separate /cache partition?
Awesome idea, the low storage in p500 sucks...
Individual app caches are largely stored in /data/data/, so for clearing browser cache (big one) will have no effect on /cache partition. Link2sd will also not effect gapps (which have usually been installed to /system in the past). It will only link user apps (/data/app/) , or system apps that have been converted to user apps. Yes, wiping /cache from recovery will effectively uninstall gapps. But with this installation I haven't found ANYTHING in /cache that would need to be wiped.
sent from the p509 that I thought I killed again... no trouble at all
After installing these gapps, the only working buttons are power and home and latinime FC's!( I removed libcomm-jni.so and gtalk libs)
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda app-developers app
Yeah, I had fc also. But Latinime is not in gapps. It's in the rom. I previously had a problem with one of rashed's gapps packages, which installed an incompatible libjni_latinime.so. But this package doesn't do that. I fixed this by installing a trimmed version as a user app, and it's lib into /system/lib. Buttons? Don't know. But I did take latinime.apk (23mb) out of /system. So possibly it's a space problem.
sent from the p509 that I thought I killed again... no trouble at all
@borchaniz
Well... I was wrong about latinime. It is the gapps. Specifically, the symlinks in the updater script. Two symlinks (libjni_latinime.so and libjni_latinimegoogle.so) are written to /system/lib/ overwriting the former. But these libs do not exist in /cache/gapps/lib/. So either edit updater script, to remove those symlinks, or copy libjni_latinime.so to the zip before flashing. Still don't know about buttons yet.

Two symlinks (libjni_latinime.so and libjni_latinimegoogle.so) are written to /system/lib/ overwriting the former. But these libs do not exist in /cache/gapps/lib/. So either edit updater script, to remove those symlinks, or copy libjni_latinime.so to the zip before flashing. Still don't know about buttons yet.

I got same problem- performed full wipe, then flashed rom (cm10.2 from Rashed's thread: and gapps following instructions in op.
Then got the problem with buttons not functioning and keyboard either fc or not showing at all.
So, I flashed rom again, this time with mini gapps by Rahulsby and everything works fine.
However, I prefer of course to have gapps linked to /cache so I hope we manage to nail what's causing the problem..

Yeah, something that I did during my previous installation allowed my buttons to work correctly. But I haven't had the time yet to go back and research everything that I did. It could be system space, as the gapps does write a little bit to /system. Or it could be another symlinked lib. But we will find the cause. Just need a little time...

[H918] TWRP Flashable Stock Firmwares

with little to no activity lately for the LGV20, specifically the H918 T-Mobile variant I decided to look into creating a TWRP flashable package for the recent H91810k release. these zips flash every partition included in the latest KDZ package with the exception of recovery to keep TWRP. standard disclaimer applies, you do all of this at YOUR OWN risk! I've tested this on my device after backing up and so far so good on the latest 10k release. please report back in this thread on whether it was successful or not.
NOTE: you can find the partitions that will be flashed in the updater-script. to be extra cautious you can back up all of the partitions that will be overwritten with the following: dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/{partition} of=/external_sd/backup/{partition}.img.
Instructions:
download H91810k.zip file listed below and put on microSD card
backup any data from internal "SD card"
boot into TWRP (requires TWRP recovery to already be installed)
create a TWRP backup of the device
flash zip from microSD card by using "Install"
flash your choice of root, either Magisk or SuperSU *Note: v12.0 of Magisk does not work with the LGV20 device in general and v11.6 is recommended.
reboot
profit!
Download:
H91810k
md5sum: ab181ec82315b656a7af48f0017f4e8c - version 1 with misc partition included (SORRY)
md5sum: 8ad07ae70c4299b3ea6e2bf747dbec1c - version 2 with misc partition removed
Flashing Process:
flash necessary partition images with the exception of recovery (to keep TWRP) from the KDZ
rename /system/recovery-from-boot.p to /system/recovery-from-boot.bak to prevent stock recovery from being installed on boot
wipes dalvik-cache and cache
BIG thanks to @McNutnut on guidance, as well as his script to put all of this together!
also thanks to @bullghost for the KDZ extractor (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2600575)
@Tilde88 for the original updater-script template w/root (https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/development/us996-nrd90m-modded-notsostock-rom-v5-1-t3526542)
First! This is sweet!
I just tried this and it works great. I prefer to use the stock rom and to get a rooted 10k that doesn't have any known security vulnerabilities is awesome. Some notes for others:
Copy SuperSU to the external SD card and flash it after this zip in TWRP.
Make sure to select all the partitions for back up in TWRP.
On the first boot after flashing, the phone will reboot by itself. This is probably normal. You will get an "Android is upgrading..." white screen. This is expected since the cache was wiped by the script. This will take a while to complete. Even when you get back into the system, an "Android is upgrading..." message will appear in the notification bar.
Clarification: The data on /sdcard doesn't get wiped, but it's a good idea to back it up just in case. The TWRP backup of the data partition does NOT include this stuff in the backup.
I had Busybox installed before, but I didn't have to reinstall it after the flash. I'm not sure why. I assumed that wiping out system would have required me to re-install Busybox. I guess Busybox doesn't get installed on the system partition?
Adblocking using apps like AdAway need to be rerun since the hosts.txt file will be reset.
Ignore the stuff under "Process" in the OP. It's explaining what the script does. You don't have to do any of that.
The script disables the updater software. You never have to worry about the next stock release causing you trouble!
I am having problems downloading this? I tried twice and it downloads but I cant find it?

pretty sure if that's the case then YOU did something wrong... the recovery image is NOT in this package at all so TWRP is left untouched.

what are you using to download?
I HAD TWRP and and after a while it went back to stock recovery
You did something other than flash the rom in this thread. Maybe you're confusing this thread with this one? https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/t-mobile-lgv20-h91810k-kdz-t3618021
If that's what you flashed, you will definitely end up with stock recovery and no root.
I've tried to install this ROM but it skips through each of partition rather quickly and it never installs. I'm on H91810j with root and TWRP installed. Any ideas? Thanks.

Did you have an external MicroSD card installed in your phone? Are you using that external MicroSD card to store the files to be flashed? What version of TWRP are you using?
Yep, on microsd. TWRP 3.0.2-1
OP says 10k, but you're on 10j?
Correct, currently on 10j

I would verify the md5sum of the downloaded file you have to what it should be, which is ab181ec82315b656a7af48f0017f4e8c

Hmm...the zip I downloaded has a checksum of 76bbccc0c9640d7f0005b529abf3873a and it uncompresses without issue!? Was there an earlier release?
Going to download again...

Can you provide more detail on what you did? You made a pretty strong statement that you lost TWRP.
Did you follow and flash what was written by the OP? Did you do flash something else after flashing what was provided by the OP? Or did you really have TWRP the whole time?
Not looking to cause an an argument but your 2 posts in this thread have made me hesitate flashing.
