stuck in a rut

So I want to do the new sw update but can't because I deleted some stock apps so the checksum wouldn't match and a hard reset won't restore them I guess so I would flash a stock rom but am I right thinking there isn't one yet? So how can I get to an original rom and then update or maybe make the new update work?

D2G stock rom
I don't know if the update will be compatible or not but from my understanding this is pretty much the stock rom that Motorola handed Verizon to put all their bloatware on then release the phone. I did load this rom on my d2g and it works flawlessly. Might be worth a try, not a direct link but will get you headed in the right direction. The rom manager gives you the opportunity to load the barebones stock google rom or the Vanilla based version, it just downloads and flashes, works perfect I didn't even have to re-activate. It is already pre-rooted so maybe the update won't work but I just wanted to make you aware of it. I work at verizon and did the update to the floor model and my dad's stock d2g also and didn't notice any difference really. I think vzw is just fixing some of the bugs that they created anyway so having the stock rom may end up with the same result, a rom that functions perfectly, good luck!.......droidforums.net/forum/droid-x-roms/106629-rom-fission-2-4-droidx-vanilla-generic-android-aosp-like-fission-rom-manager.html

@evil yeah im kind of in the same boat, let me know if srensber solution works for you.
I froze a bunch of apps with Titanium Backup and renamed some stuff with Root Explorer. I recently just re-named everything i changed back to the factory stuff (bak -> apk) but it still doesnt seem to do any good.
I did create a number of back ups using Rom manager but i cant seem to find out where they are located and how to restore them. hmm. Not sure what to do.
Ah i realize what ive done wrong ... i didnt know you had to have bootstrap installed along with clockwork recoveryy in order to make a backup hmm. Going to need a rom of stock d2g lol.

clockwork recovery installs a boot hijack, which might be the culpirt

If anyone else has any input about this please help!

[CLOSED][ROM]Bone Stock & Stock Deodex ROM's Triumph-Now Resets Splash.img!![CLOSED]
Thread closed because I no longer own this device. The download links no longer work. Sorry for any inconvenience.

i just installed and wifi works but when trying to go online rebuts the phone, also the screen goes black and stays like that for like 2 minutes. And yes i did all the restores available.

Which ROM did you flash? Deodexed or Complete Stock?

deoxed one.

Hmm that's odd cause the woofing works fine on mine! Ill look into it!

Same here it works... weird, this is the fix for me that got the wifi functioning again. But then again, I flashed b_randon14's stock theme zip, not this one.
If you want deodex I would recommend that one, more confirm it working at least right now.

Stupid question perhaps, but will apktool properly decompile and recompile framework-res.apk? I ran into a doozy of a problem trying to do that with somebody else's ROM.

Yeah it decompiles just fine! I have done it a thousand times!

Edited op with the zips that will reset the splash.img back to factory as well!!!

Thanks and I'm going to have to try this one out now.
Is the Android logo text hidden deeper in the system than I originally thought? I've actually seen it on my new phone a couple of times now, after reverting different things. You know, the flashing "android" text...

When there is no boot animation, it reverts to the flashing android logo. Its in the framework Res under assets/images. The boot logo(red Motorola logo) is on the same partition as the recovery image as a splash.img. to flash it I have the recovery mount that vfat partition as sd-ext and copy over the the splash.img its the same way I flash recoveries from cwm.
The bootanimations( red Motorola animated logo then cm splash animation) is locates in /hidden/data/power-on animation.

So I installed the deodexed version and I was able to use mobile wifi tether with barnicale without having to change the MTU for the Motorola Triumph!

Once you change the MTU once on a computer, you never have to change it again... you sure it's not just a residual effect?

I'm quite well aware of that. I did it on my laptop, but not my desktop. but my desktop was able to connect online with the tether. i guess i should try it on another machine to make sure.

Is there any advantage with the deodexed version over the odexed version if your goal is to restore the phone to stock after having another ROM installed?

Selling my Motorola Triumph to a friend - I've been running CM7 since the alpha days, so I need to go back to stock. I still have a nandroid of the stock ROM, but that also has a lot of installed apps, not to mention personal information/passwords. Will the complete stock ROM allow her to activate the phone?

It should.

I know this thread is about a year old, but thanks for the stock files.
I had CM7 running on my daughters Triumph. I finally decided to just put both of my kids on my VZW family plan since the Gnex dropped to $50 each and Virgin Mobile's service is a complete waste of money.
I'm selling her Triumph now and the phone has to be stock in order for the new owner to activate it, so this came in handy.
Thank you very much!

Works perfectly. My girlfriend didn't want a buggy ROM ruining her Candy Crush games so I had to bring her back to stock. Took less than ten minutes! Tanks!

Success: Rogers Deodexed/Debloated | with CleanROM

Successfully deodexed/debloated original Rogers 1.73 RUU ROM using CleanROM tools/script. Why? I am sure I am not the only Rogers phone user itching to have a debloated/deodexed ROM experience. My main goal is to get sk806's mod to work. Debloat wanted for obvious reasons.
What I did:
- I updated the CleanROM installer script, removed two processes for at&t, replaced all system/apps and framework files from Sirius-X.
The install process was rather slow at first, took me three soft bricks, and basically a full day to get my phone up and running again.
I am just testing this now to make sure this is fully functional. For some reason I lost the stock phone.apk app, I have tried all my known methods to reinstall, but still not working. My workaround is using exDialer from the market...sorry the Play Store, for the time being. Also hoping to get the 3-dot mod working on this, main reason for wanting deodex files.
Because I am new to this, and still testing, I don't plan to share at this time ...but depending on demand in this thread, and lack of Rogers Deodex/debloated ROMS available(that can be installed), I would be willing to share. I would also have to msg JSLEntreprises to make sure i could reuse his SiriusX Rom files, also msg scrosler to chg/reuse his CleanROM toosl(although it seems he has opened them up for all to use).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Credits go to:
scrosler: for his CleanROM Tool/Installer (thanks for all the hard work!)
JSLEnterprises: for his Sirius ROM pieces, and deodexed files (there are still a couple of odexed files left over, I assume there is good reason for this, so I left them in)
SK806: for all the hard work he is doing to get an unlocked bootloader and 3-dot MOD(hopefully we will have the files for 1.73 RUU again soon, to use with this mod.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
UPDATE:
Both the Camera and Phone apps weren't working..I ended merging a few of the deodexed AT&T apps from scroslers ClearnROM AT&T Beta 1...and it seems to all be fixed.
I wanted to add a poll at this point to see the demand for this from Rogers users, but I can't figure out how, after already making this thread.

GOD If you do share the how-to for Rogers. I'd be happy to give that a GO. Mind you I've done a good job at it myself but I'd be happy to factory reset my phone and proceed with your steps and see the difference.
Cheers bud!

Hey fluxgfx,
If you already have the deodexed files booted on your phone, I wouldn't bother going through the process again, it probably wouldn't be worth it. However, if you still wanted to, I can send you the updated installer script..then you could download SiriusX ROM, AT&T CleanMOD beta1, and copy over the system/apps and framework files, to the proper places in the CleanMod folder(I also suggest extacting the Phone.apk, Camera.apk and any files not deodexed from SiruisX ROM, you will already have these in the CleanMOD app folder)..and do it from there...remember you need stock recovery for this to work, so you can only start with a fresh Rogers RUU flash (so have that downloaded as well).
Let me know after reading that paragraph if you are still interested and I can write out the full procedure, there doesn't seem to be a big demand for this, + at&t users will soon have a CWM recovery, which means we will probably get ours fully functional soon as well, which makes this process MUCH easier and probably safer.

I'm definitely interested in a debloat and deodex rogers HTC one X rom. How well did it fare for you?

Umm isnt it called cleanrom? Im using lite 1.1 and its great.

id be very interested, basically my only itch on the rogers stock rom is that super annoying bottom bar that needs a deodexed rom to get rid of !!

Truthfully I consider this thread/proposal dead at this point...it was only mentioned when there was no working recovery. As soon as we got superCID I flashed at&t and haven't looked back...Been using cleanrom standard ever since.
Go with any of the custom ROM, they should all be much superior to Rogers stock...WiFi crap is fixed, multitasking and much more.

[Q] D850 but now on T-mobile how hard is it to get CM11/12

As the title says, I am on T-mobile now with my D850. My phone is currently unlocked and rooted using stock rom.
the last phone i flashed a custom rom was with my htc one x and frankly i forgotten all the little details and never bothered because it took a lot of time. i know i need bootloader unlocked to install a custom recovery to flash the rom then back up, install gapps, etc etc. I don't have time or the patience to relearn everything.
I got interested in learning that CM11 is available and i checked out the CM website and was surprised to hear all i have to do is install the installer on both my phone and PC and boom, everything else is automated. This is what i want to try. Here are my questions:
- do i have to manually install any apn, radio, etc. things of that nature to get the proper t-mobile network signal for voice, LTE data, and text messaging?
- is an official D850 released so that once i install, i can simply keep up to date into CM12 via automatic updates through the software? (one click update OTA)
- do i need to make a titanium back up or will all my apps and settings stay when i flash CM?
I appreciate any and all answers. I have not unlocked bootloader via bump yet. but my main worry is will i have to custom install/input all the t-mobile apn and radios because that will require me to manually find and install and risk messing things up.

You just need to install Bump! And a backup is recommended in case something goes wrong, as far as connecting to tmobile all you need is the APN, i have a D850 and i live in mexico and CM11 and 12 work fine with just the apn, also everything will get wiped except for pics and music if you dont wipe internal storage

errr i am not comfortable with adb to install bump! would the automated installer on pc and phone do all this for me? i guess i can try? i just love how CM installer does everything for you. also thanks for confirming all i need to do is input the APN which i'm familiar with when i had switched to t-mobile after i had unlocked my phone. lastly will i have to install gapps separately? Thank you so much, i wish i didn't have to use adb to bump!

Dont need to use adb, just download flashify from the play store, does it all by itself, very easy, the automated installer is just for the rom, you need a recovery first, the gapps should be installed at the same time as the rom, but ive never used the auto installer, i would flash it with the recovery, i like to things manually

Just to let you know that with every AOSP ROM with a T-Mobile Sim you will get a kernel panic if using LTE. I have the D850 but using a T-Mobile Sim. I have to have it on 3g instead of LTE. No ones been able to figure it out I'm guessing because there is only one or two of us using a T-Mobile Sim with this phone. Bummer huh
???CAUTION???
May ruin other ROMS after this
because nothing compares

Well then have you thought of changing carriers? It is a d850 for Att ..... Does it kernel panic on stock Roms ? You might just be **** out of luck cause I'm pretty sure everyone here uses Att. I use straight talk with no issues. You have slim choices..... Change carriers. .... Quit using T-Mobile if you are unhappy with the custom ROM and LTE kernel panics. Or buy a T-Mobile g3..... Lol suck eh... But just telling you what you need to hear.
Or maybe if you are ballsy try to see if a Dev for T-Mobile can help you with this cause I'm thinking that may be your beat bet cause none of us use T-Mobile. :thumbup::beer:

interesting note, will update you, LTE seems to be working fine, speeds are fine, but i need to use LTE longer to see the kernel problem. I'm on the CM 11, dec 6 nightly currently. how about you?

Latest nightly of cm12. Try downloading a ROM over LTE

Questions Regarding ST:S5

I've searched the forums beforehand, so if someone finds something I missed, I apologize.
I have a Straight-Talk Samsung Galaxy S5.
Model Number from within Android says SM-S902L
Model Number on the battery cover says SM-G900P (B)
Currently running 4.4.2
I was wondering if someone would be able to show me how to root this, install a custom recovery, and tell me which roms I can install. The two different model numbers are confusing me.
EDIT: I rooted via CF Auto root using the sprint ktle .tar. Does this mean that most SM-G900P roms will work? I'm still confused on how to get from 4.4.2 to Android 5 or 6, if it's even possible.
Thank you very much.

i put a version of MOAR built for the vzw G900v on a 902L a few mos ago and its working fine. Just get TWRP on it and you can flash pretty much any snapdragon based ROM on it barring incompatible kernels and so forth

I got TWRP installed and it works fine, made sure the first thing I did was back everything up. It's just that, every post I've seen, the OP's Straight Talk S5 was just a rebranded Verizon S5, while mine is a rebranded Sprint S5. I just want to be certain flashing a Verizon ROM won't bork my "Sprint" phone. I can't find APN settings or anything. So I can't even copy them to change them later. So should I only try Sprint ROMs?

Tats the weird thing about the 902L, it says g900p on it, but i had to flash the vzw version of MOAR instead of the G900Ps version for it to work. But its seriously hard to bork your phone in such a manner that Odin cant fix it. I cant tell you how many times ive tried to install a ROM that was made for the g900p on my g900p and it failed, so, i just flashed MOAR in TWRP again and viola. Also, the backup thing isnt as vital as some make it seem if you have the tarball for the phone you own. Sure, it makes it easy to restore from an eff-up if you dont have your computer handy, but its just so unnecessary to make a backup of your original setup, just have a backup of a known to be fully working setup. Anyways, give vzw's MOAR a try. Its a great ROM and if anything goews wrong, just odin your phones original tarball back on it and all will be back to stock. You have to flash TWRP after the phones OG tarball tho

I don't have my phones OG tar. And is there a step I have to take before installing M.O.A.R or can I just jump from 4.x.x to 6.x.x?

im not aware of any 6.x.x ROMs that are compatible. MOAR is 5.0. Are you trying to get an app working that isnt compatible with 4.x.x? Like the car synch app? And to flash MOAR, just download it, wipe cache, dalvik and system in TWRP and install MOAR. Firstly tho, get the tarball from sammobile.com/firmwares. Its a super slow d/l, but youre gonna want to have it in case of a nuclear bomb restore necessity (not a likely scenario, but youre gonna want it. I have it and can host it for you on android file host later once i get home)

did you get the tarball for the 902L?

i ended up redownloading it from sammobile.com/firmwares. Took about 90 min because of their horrendous download speeds for non premium members, but i have 7 TB of storage, so im not wasting any space just having it since i have a G900P LoL (well, 2 of em along with the bovy of other phones i have for whatever reason i still keep them)

Thank you so much!, and Happy Thanksgiving if you celebrate. I've installed MOAR and the only thing I did was change the colors of the status bar icons and now all the phone does is boot to lockscreen then cycle back to boot animation. Something I did?

wipe all the appropriate caches before installing? and where did you get the version of MOAR youre using? Also happy thanksgiving to you too!

Ironically, I want to go back to 4.X.X for compatibility issues. Do I just wipe Dalvik and Cache and load OG tar through odin? I cant locate OG tar for 902L :/
