Hi
Recently flashed cm7.0.3 on my DHD after the usual nandroid backup etc. Had to wipe data and cache first. After the cm flash I flashed the latest gapps.
The phone boots fine but with no Android market and no Google apps. I understand that the gapps process has changed so I must be doing something wrong, but what??
Thanks!

Did you use Rom Manager or did you flash from Recovery? May be worth trying whichever method you didn't the first time around.
You need to download the GAPPS file located most likely in the same thread you downloaded the CM7 files. You will have to use CWM to flash the GAPPS file and once done you will have the market once the phone boots back up.
I ran in to the same issue when I installed CM7 on my Captivate and once I found the GAPPS file I was golden!
Aha! Got ya. I've been trying to flash gapps from recovery - I take it that doesn't work then? Haven't used CWM for *ages* but am sure I can guess my way thru it.
Thanks!
gapps have to be flashed from recovery. yes. try rom manager in your phone. it makes the process a lot easier. press Download Rom - CM - and choose the latest stable. it will then ask you abt gapps, just check that box and you are set
Sorted
Thanks for the tips, got it working in the end. There were a couple of problems stopping me flashing GAPPS:
- Clockwork mod was an old version - had to try a couple of times to upgrade it, kept failing, worked after complete wipe and reflash of CM7
- I had been trying to install GAPPS from recovery. Tried from CWM after the upgrade and it worked fine.
Cheers for the help.
Hello All,
I need your help regarding upgrade my captivate which is running on 2.1. I had hard bricked it once before when I was trying to update it via odin. Just got fixed it back from mobiletechvideos.com. Now I want to upgrade it to gingerbread Can anyone tell me any stable rom which I can upgrade safely and have 0% chance to hard bricked it again. Or any rom which I can flash via any other tool not via odin as I thought last bricked was caused due to odin. Pls help me.
I like the MIUI rom but I saw that it use ODIN so I am a bit afread to try it
Thanks
My understanding of the process.
I'm fairly sure you need to use superoneclick to root, that's step one. Next go to market and dowload ROM manager and install it, that's step two.Step three, flash clockworkmod recovery with ROM manager. Choose captivateMTD and let it flash. Step four, now go to the download ROM and choose an MTD ROM. I reccomend cyanogenmod as its aosp, overclocked and generally awesome. They have a stable build that's a great dd. Step five is to flash it. When the download completes it will promt you to wipe data and cache, clear everything and hit go. Step six would be to dl and flash gapps with ROM manager. Wipe cache and install. After all this you should be on cm7 stable. Pm me if you need help. I have the drivers and all files you could possibly need in my dropbox account.
Good luck and enjoy cyanogenmod.

please, for the love all that is holy, leave your phone alone if you dont know how to use GOOGLE
http://bit.ly/uoGYG7
I tried to download superoneclick via this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682
All archive showing me damaged only 8 mb version is working but when I tried to root it via that version it shows me FAILED msg at the end. Any help in this regard ?
You do not need to root your phone to install a custom rom.
If you currently are on 2.1, boot into recovery and flash this zip file.
From here you can go about installing a gingerbread kernel and rom.
If you are unsure of the process, please do lots more research before you go flashing anything. If you brick again it's not my fault.

Step One: Root Done
Step Two: ROM manager installation Done
Step Three: flash clockworkmod recovery with ROM manager (When I clicked on it asked me that confirm phone model and when I clicked on samsung captivate MDT it said that clockworkmod not officially supported the captivate MDT and have you installed clockworkmod based recovery manually if I clicked on yes it proceed to the next screen and if I clicked no it said that without it rom manager will not work. If i clicked on yes it proceed to the next screen and asked me the clockworkmod version 2.x or 3.x. I select one of them and click on the install rom from SD card and then browse to my downloaded rom when I clicked on rom and it will ask me to backup exsisiting rom, wipe data and cache and wipe dalvik cache. I had selected last 2 options and clicked ok then it asked me to press ok to reboot into clockworkMod Recovery and continue the installation when I clicked ok and rebooted where it showing me 4 options: rebbot system now, reinstall packages, delete all user data and delete cache data. After that I don't know what to do BTW I downloaded MIUI rom as I wana try it )
Any Help ?
Its sounds like you are in the stock recovery still. When you get to the screen with four options click reinstall packages and it should take you to clockwork recovery. The you will have many more options. You will want to go to install zip from SD card then choose zip from SD card and then navigate to your rom of choice and click it. Then it will go through the install process and when it is done hit reboot now and you should be running your custom rom.

Phone is in the same state and doing this thing again and again. I remove the battery and power on again and its doing same thing any help ?
Get into cwm again via buttons and flash cm7 one more time. Should fix the error you're seeing.

Anyways Thanks alot guys.
hey guys, ill get straight to the point:
i decided to take out my old tf101(non-3g) after after a year or more, dont remember. it works relatively well, but im sure theres a lot that can be updated rom-wise. right now it has this:
Kernel version
2.6.39.4-JELLYBEAN-g18e8917-dirty [email protected] #89 SMP PREEMPT Wed Aug 22 17:40:05 CEST 2012
Build number
full_tf101-userdebug 4.1.1 MASTER eng. RaymanFX.20120821.232608 test-keys
I include this because I'm not exactly sure what version i have.. i think its the 6.0.0 from raymanfx
Anyway, from what I could from a quick glance of these forums, there's a ton of new features for this tablet! or at least one i really like, multi-window.
So can I get some suggestions from you guys on whats the best way to get my tablet up to date? I'm looking for a stable rom also. Is the best way to get to this point to return my tablet to stock and start over from there?
Any useful suggestions are welcomed. Thanks
First thing you should do is make sure you have TWRP recovery installed
Make sure if you have CWM recovery installed that you change over to TWRP before flashing the ROM or you have a good chance of a boot loop
Easiest method, install Goo Manager from here
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.s0up.goomanager
Open app > Hit the top right 3 dots menu button > choose "Install Open RecoveryScript"
Follow instructions to get TWRP running, boot into TWRP to check it has worked by holding Power & Volume Down from a powered off state until you see the white text at the top of the screen
Then release all buttons and tap volume up to enter recovery
If that works fine, then download a new ROM and Gapps and copy to a Micro SD Card
This is the latest and most stable version that has Multi Window support
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2392087
Copy the ROM & Gapps to Micro SD and stick it in the TF
Boot into TWRP
Press the WIPE option and wipe everything apart from External which is where your new ROM is
Go back to the main screen by hitting the home button at the top right
Press the install button
Choose External memory to find your new ROM and Gapps
Install ROM
Install Gapps
Wipe Cache & Dalvik Cache
Press reboot to Reboot into your new 4.3.1 Jellybean ROM with Multi Window

If you have problems getting TWRP using Goo Manager, use EasyFlasher

Because you want Multi-Window, go with the previously mentioned KatKiss 4.3.1 or, if you can wait a few days, go for 4.4.2 v023. Tim's changelog indicates the next version is going to fix it.
4.4.2 really flies, BTW!

Android 4.4 (Kit Kat) runs much better on lower powered/memory devices than previous versions. The possible downside of KatKiss 4.4.2 compared with KatKiss 4.3.1 is that it is relatively new and may have some issues with some apps (i haven't seen any though).
So I followed all the steps and updated my tablet. Installed the 4.4.2 version. It's awesome!!! I never imagined this tablet would still have so much value in it.
Thanks again guy for helping me out!
Great!
Yea the latest 4.4.2 #23 is a superb ROM, best one so far imo & multiwindow is in this one too
I just bought my wife a used TF300T running stock 4.2.1 and, after rooting and using lagfix, it doesn't seem any faster than my TF101 running KatKiss 4.4.2. Maybe I should have bought another TF101 and saved a few bucks.

TF101 (@1400MHz) got 10113. TF300T got 13444. But they feel pretty much the same for the basic stuff my wife and I do with the tablets.
I'm having problems with Netflix.. A lot of times it hang.. Not loading, but the picture. The video will seemingly stop playing and get stuck, but the sound continues and the playback timer continues also. Only the video gets stuck. The only thing that will temp fix it is to close the app and open again, but even then there's a 50/50 chance it will screw up again. And if I move to a specific spot in the video, so that it has to sort of reload it, it will likely get stuck again.
You guys have any problems like this with Netflix? Solutions?
I'm still on v23.. I see there's a v23c now but not sure if that's a newer version?

Netflix
To get the latest Netflix versions to work you can use this XPosed module:

You can also use an older version of Netflix ( 2.0..)

23c just adds support for some international keyboards - they're otherwise the same.

Hi
Sorry to revive an old thread
I am in the same boat. I have a B40 tablet.
I followed the steps up till install ROM.
When I install, it is stuck at "updating partition detail".
I have tried to flash newest twrp without success ( cannot even get into recovery)
I have tried easyflasher to unbrick, flash twrp 2.2.1, flash twrp 2.3.2.3 using GOOmanager, but still stuck at "updating partition detail" when flash katkiss 4.4.2v23c.
I have tried different micro-sd cards and different downloads.
What may have gone wrong?
Thanks

Does it not flash the ROM first, then stop at "Updating Partition Details" ?
Are you sure it hasn't successfully flashed the ROM?
iirc Updating Partition Details is the last thing it says after flashing

Sadly not.
When I swipe to flash, that is the first and only line that pops up immediately.
If I let it sit at that line for the night, in the morning I see TWRP going back to home screen. But the log still only has that one line.

Ok, try NVFLASH'ing the Stock ROM
NVFLASH will delete and re-create all the partitions on the device and then flash you back to 100% factory stock
Once you are up and running with stock, use Easyflasher to flash TWRP recovery again, then try flashing KatKiss ROM again from TWRP

Thanks for your reply.
Just a couple questions
1. I have used easyflasher to flash stock before flashing twrp and katkiss. Is that the same as using NVFLASH? Or should I not wipe everything before flashing katkiss so that the partition is not touched? If so, what should I wipe before flashing?
2. I thought katkiss requires twrp >=2.3.2.3 . Easyflasher flashes a version lower than that. Am I correct to use goomanager under stock rom to update twrp to 2.3.2.3 before flashing katkiss?
3. If I want to try flashing katkiss from internal memory, where should I put the zip file and what should I not wipe before flashing?
Thanks

1.) Use NVFLASH to flash stock - Wipe everything in TWRP once you're ready for KatKiss
2.) TWRP that comes with Easyflasher will work, you can upgrade later
3.)Flash KatKiss from MicroSD so you can wipe everything on Internal

- SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
Is it related? Someone help plz...
The question is do i really have to install a new rom, now that the tablet is rooted with CWM on it, can't do any manipulation to allow the chinese rom to accept google playstore etc...
My biggest problem with the chinese rom that comes with it is that i cant install download google playstore, i installed it but everytime i open it, it closes right away. Not google nor other google apps available neither since it was sold in china...

In the end, I just used a previous version of Odin (3.4 instead of 3.9) to flash an original stock rom.
Now the problem is that I have a new CWM that works with the volume up, volume down button, and this menu:
- reboot system now
- apply update from ADB
- apply update from external storage
- zipe data/factory reset
- wipe cache partition
- apply update from cache
Since the rom is not really good, i wanted to flash another one (one of those we just talked about), but the backup i did with the previous CWM i had (Philz Advanced CWM 6.08.90) is nowhere in the tablet anymore (i dont have any sd card) and i dont know how to make a back up with this CWM...
So now the question is how to make a backup with this version of CWM so I can try to flash other roms, or how to get the version that i had before without takin any risk of brickin the device (so i can make another backup and try to flash another)

Are you sure the new recovery is CWM and not stock recovery?? If you flashed stock ROM, it should've given you stock recovery again...
(Does it show the CWM hat logo in the background?)

Actually, yea its the stock recovery, so should i reroot the phone to install CWM, make a backup just in case, flash another stock rom which i find better, and then try to flash this one in recovery mode?

Hi, I have bought a samsung tab 3 sm-t311 in China and since they everything related to google, I rooted it and installed CWM,
I installed this rom here with CWM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2404877
Installation was successful but I get this messages when launching my device:
- setup wizard isn't responding. Do you want to close it?
I close it, then:
- Unfortunately, the process android.process.media has stopped.
I press ok, then:
Unfortunately, Samsung keyboard has stopped.
I press ok then:
- Process system isn't responding. Do you want to close it?
I press ok
And it keeps coming back over and over...
What should I do?

Try fix or patch.
Or come back to stock rom.

Yup, I think you'd better to start over again. Try take a look at this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2401901
It works well for my SM-T311 :good: Then you can reroot and make a backup from TWRP easily.
I also suggest you to take a look at this too : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2522091 From there, you can get PhilZ touch recovery based on CWM v.6.0.4.5

That's right, look at @Ferris Cruiser's post above. Should help.
(<---Remember to thank him and me if this helps.:good
Ok, my problem is resolved now.
- I had to use the previous version of Odin (3.4) to flash a rom from sammobile.com
- Then, I rooted the phone, reinstalling CWM philz version
- I did a backup using CWM
- Finally I flashed the custom rom using CWM
Thank u all for helping

HELP
I bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 SM-T311 in Mainland China last month and I cannot install google play can anyone help.
Hi everyone!
I'm trying to flash lollipop on my nexus 5 but every time is a pain!
If i flash a rom with gapps included, all ok.
But if i try another rom (im testing optipop now) with pa gapps i reach a message "setup wizard has stop working" and i can't do nothing. the screen is black.
If i dont flash gapps, i reach a black screen with no status bar and navbar and after i press a button i'm gone, i can't do nothing else because i don't have the navbar
any advice? this is a really nightmere, kk was fine and easy! why seems this isn't working just for me ?

Try these Minimal Gapps: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/gapps-google-apps-minimal-edition-t2943330
Is your TWRP recovery up-to-date? Do you wipe system+cache+data+dalvik cache before booting to OptiPop? Do you flash mods?
Clean flash
i've done eeeeverything! seems a problem with the optipop because liquid smooth now work like a charm, (with same gapps)

Nothing wrong with optipop, installs and works fine, like said above clean install.
Seen some issues with twrp on a few ROM forums, I don't use it (philz) so I have no issues.

TWRP is the only recovery which is still supported. The one to use for Lollipop.

[Q] Lollipop, a nightmare of issues! - wrong title here.
It should be: Lollipop custom roms - a nightmare of issues!
Stock one do it just fine.

Sorry, not a fan of twrp, I will continue to use philz, works with every lollipop rom out there, and yes, I have tried every rom in the rom forums more than once, til it stops working, I won't switch . Choice is good.
