Hi there,
For the second time, after an update, I can't enter in my phone. I key the pin and the phone goes back to the enter pin.
I had (for the second time) to recover from the backup.
My process to update is:
Code:
Menu Settings > System > Advanced > Updater > Install (last version)
It will reboot to TWRP automaticaly
Backup, nandroid AND directories, (many backups)
Click INSTALL then go to /data/lineageos_updates (not in sdcard)
Select the good file .zip
Wipe to install
At the end, clean the Cache/Dalvik cache
Reboot
Is it my mistake? How to fix it?
Thanks
Please don't answer here but in the other post here
Sorry for my mistake.

my phone already updated with patch 2, and now I'm trying to update to patch 3..
I follow this instruction based on thread by Mioze7Ae (link--> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=995989 )

Yes pull the battery & start again. BTW, if you're already running Dexter's 1.3 w/ bugfix2 I don't think it's necessary to reinstall 1.3, just apply the new update after your backup completes successfully & wipe the dalvik-cache.

You can just start from step 6. It's good practice to make a backup, though.
That list is meant to be a general purpose instructions that should work for everyone. It seems to confuse people when I try to explain shortcuts that could be made. I figure that if people know enough to spot short cuts or alternates, then I didn't need to explain it to them anyway.
Did you select compression when you made the backup? In my experience the compression step takes eons. It first dumps the image and then goes back and compresses it.
I followed the same instruction, but I see a lot of ERROR CODE -1 (E:Missing bitmap XXXX).
For example;
missing bitmap interminate6
missing bitmap progress_bar_empty_left_round
missing bitmap progress_bar_empty
missing bitmap progress_bar_empty_right_round
and so on.
It seems to be just the bitmap pictures file is missing, but why the patch installation is failed??
I already reloaded the stock221v13 one more time, but it does not fix the problem.
Can you please help?

I have the same problem and my solution is that you should wipe cach and wipe data/factory reset before doing backup and download a fresh Open recoveries, then executing the backup

But... if you wipe data/factory reset there's no reason to do a backup.
I have a defy with 2.51 from Red Bull in Austria.
I want to install CM7
what i have done so far:
rooted
recovery installed
nandroid backup done
what i want to know:
If i need to send it in for repair, is everything i need to do to flash back the nandroid? or is this not possible because of the lost of downgradability on 2.51?
it would be nice form you to tell me this things
If you have a nandroid of your system, and a fixed SBF of your 2.51, all you need to do to send it to warranty is restore your nandroid then flash the fixed SBF.

if you don't flash the full SBF, your downgrade-ablility is fine.
here the safe step to install CM7 to keep your downgrade-ability:
FROM ECLAIR
1. get root, install recovery app, reboot
2. place nandroid backup of 3.4.2-177 to your sdcard
3. turn off usb debuging, go to your custom recovery app: tap install recovery (allow root access when needed), tap reboot recovery
4. from custom recovery, wipe data, then wipe cache
5. then restore nandroid
6. choose reboot system now, BUT IMMEDIATELY go to bootloader (press and hold vol.up immeditely after phone reboot)
7. defy is in bootloader state, connect usb (make sure your computer has usb driver installed), open RSD-Lite 4.9 to flash the Fixed SBF of 3.4.2-177
8. let the process begins and wait untill phone fully starts.
now you in Froyo 2.2.2 (build number 3.4.2-177) state, with still have a downgrade-ability.
9. place CM7 beta5 zip and google app zip to sdcard root
10. make sure that nandroid backup rom you just restored is rooted (there is superuser app on there),
and UNINSTALL any custom recovery app you can found (usualy named SD recovery, System Recovery, etc)
11. install bootmenu instead (there's a custom recovery inside that bootmenu)
-download this file (bootmenu), create folder named "bootmenu", and extract zip files into that folder.
-copy "bootmenu" folder to your sdcard root (it should like this /sdcard/bootmenu)
-turn on usb debuging
-do this from terminal emulator or with adb in command prompt:
Code:
$ su [COLOR="Gray"](look up your phone immediately, allow root access)[/COLOR]
# cp -R /sdcard/bootmenu /data/bootmenu
# cd /data/bootmenu
# chmod 755 *
# ./install.sh
[COLOR="gray"]--------- it should says installation done and says please reboot. but don't reboot now.[/COLOR]
# rm -R /data/bootmenu
--------- reboot now
12. you will automaticaly go to bootmenu, choose boot, and set the default boot to 2ndInit
13. go back, go to recovery>custom recovery: wipe data, then wipe cache
14. choose install zip from sdcard, choose CM7 beta5 zip
15. choose install zip from sdcard again, choose google apps zip
16. reboot system now, first boot seems much longer
17. it's done.
if you want to go back to eclair
1. turn off usb debuging,
2. copy nandroid backup of your ECLAIR to sdcard, put it in /sdcard/clockworkmod/YourEclairNandroidFolder (must "clockworkmod" not "goapkrev")
3. reboot phone
4. have a attention, when blue lights is on while motorola logo shows, immediately press vol.down
-you will go to bootmenu, go to recovery>custom recovery
-wipe data then wipe cache
-choose restore, choose your eclair nandroid backup
5. choose reboot system now, BUT IMMEDIATELY go to bootloader (press and hold vol.up immeditely after phone reboot)
6. defy is in bootloader state, connect usb, open RSD-Lite 4.9 to flash the Fixed SBF of your Eclair Build 2.51 Aus Red Bull
(must a same build number with your nandroid backup, i can't find a link for that build number)
7. let the process begins and wait untill phone fully starts
8. it's done.
now you back on Eclair
thank you very much
I've been trying to flash a ROM [Gingerclone V2] to my Sidekick 4G for a while now - I've ODINed 4 times due to lack of success. My problem seems to be the exact one as this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1406745
but I haven't tried flashing a different ROM yet.
I already have the new binary recovery and .zip on my SD card before I start each time
My latest procedure:
> Using ES File Manager, copy Recovery into system>bin
> Go to ROM Manager; Flash ClockWorkMod (even though it says it's already flashed, I do it just to be safe)
> Install from SD card
> Phone goes to stock recovery screen. I select Reinstall Packages. Screen goes to CWM recovery
> Wipe Data/Factory Reset - gets stuck at formatting sdcard .android_secure
> battery pull
> Start up into stock recovery - choose wipe data, and then select reinstall packages; screen goes to CWM recovery
> Select Wipe Cache Partition
> Check Mounts - Unmount System
Here's where I'm not sure exactly what to do, and there don't seem to be any clear instructions...
> I choose Install from SD card (I don't remember the exact wording); find the zip file; select it
> It starts the install
> When install finishes, in big blue text reboot now comes up at the top of the screen (it's cut off, but I think that's what it says)
> The phone reboots, stuck at the splash screen, vibrating as if a Force Close repeatedly, as reported in the linked thread.
> ODIN
I may have forgotten a step or two. It would be very much appreciated if somebody could tell me I did wrong ^.^
Also: might be a n--b question, but is there such thing as an ODIN file for custom ROMs? Is there anyway I can get ay0teddy's ROM as this type of file and ODIN it directly?
[Newbie] Complete Guide to for Rooting & Install a Custom Rom [Updated 9 Sep 2013]
This is aimed at new "rooters". The process is incredibly easy.
I also take no responsibility if you mess up somehow, and this is for GSM Hero's NOT Sprint Hero CDMA users.

I have now also included a link to z4root as an alternative.
Here is a link to my backup guide but please be aware that most of it requires root access.
Prelude:
Install HTC Sync from here
Download Universal Androot
Download z4root
Download Root Checker - only if you need to
Download AmonRA Recovery v1.7.0.1.img - easier if you rename this "recovery.img" when it is on your sdcard
Place both downloaded files on your SD Card
Root & Recovery
1. Download and install Astro File Manager from the Market (or use any other file management program of your choice)
2. Open Astro and find and install Universal Androot (or if that doesn't work try z4root) from your sdcard:
Select UniversalAndroot.apk > Open App Manager > Install > Settings> [tick] Unknown Sources > OK > Back > Select UniversalAndroot.apk > Open App Manager > Install > Install > Open
3. In the app and choose the correct version from the dropdown box:
Superuser for Android 2.0~2.2 - if you have updated your phone recently
Superuser for Android 1.5~1.6 - if you have refused updates recently or your country/provider hasn't released one yet
Then choose: "Root "
Wait until it says "Woot ! Your device is rooted !" and exit the program.
4. Download and install Android Terminal Emulator from the Market (use Better Terminal instead if this one doesn't work)
5. Run "Terminal Emulator". Type (press and hold menu to get the keyboard up) in the following:
su (press enter and wait for the "Super User Request Prompt". Choose "Allow" and make sure its ticked to Allow every time.)
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img (press enter - make sure this is typed exactly as seen)
N.B. If you have issues here, see * notes below for more assistance
6. Turn off your phone and press Home + Power to start it up again. This should boot into recovery mode.
Install Your Custom Rom
Note: This part of the guide can be repeated with as many different rom's as you like. You do not have to repeat the previous section once you have a recovery image installed.
1. Download a Custom ROM from here to your computer.
2. Make sure your phone is in recovery mode (Home + Power)
Plug your phone into your computer and select "USB-MS toggle" in recovery
Place the Custom ROM on your SD card in the main directory and press Home when it has finished copying over
3. Select Backup/Restore > Nand backup > confirm with Home > Wait
(or Nand + Ext if you have A2SD setup)
4. Press back then select Wipe from the main menu, then select:
Wipe data/factory reset > Home
Wipe cache > Home
Wipe Dalvik-cache > Home
Wipe SD:ext partition > Home
Press back button
Select Flash Zip from SD Card
Select the file
Press Home to confirm
Note: Ignore any "errors", they are normal and usually mean you're not using that feature.
5. Once it is done, select Reboot and you will boot into the new Custom ROM.
Updating your Radio
Note: The radio deals with your signal levels and connectivity.
1. Download the latest radio from the following page
N.B. Radio's are not region specific! Just get the latest
2. Mount your SD Card so your computer can read it and place the downloaded file in the main directory
3. Turn off your phone and boot into the recovery screen (holding Home + Power)
4. Choose:
Flash Zip from SD Card
Pick the radio.zip file and press Home to confirm
Wait
Your phone will reboot a couple of times but when you're back on the Recovery Screen just press reboot system now and it will complete the install and put you back into your custom rom.
DO NOT PULL THE BATTERY OUT, THIS WILL BRICK YOUR HANDSET.
5. When this process has completed reboot the phone and you should have the new radio. This can be checked in Settings > About Phone

This is not a guide for the HTC ONE S, new users please disregard this and use one of the guides from our forum.
Yea I was wondering why this was here, you got lost man
THIS IS JUST TO HELP YOU (THE OWNER OF THE PHONE) BYPASS THE ACTIVATION LOCK SO YOU CAN USE MIUI ONCE AGAIN, I DONT MEAN FOR YOU TO GO AND STEAL ALL THE PHONES RUNNING MIUI.
ALWAYS MAKE A BACKUP, IM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR BRICKED DEVICES OR DATA LOSS
**You will have no MIUI lockscreen and will lack of Rom functions if the device is locked to an account and you dont know it**
Things you will need: (Please read instructions carefully)
1) Root and bootloader unlock (just to make sure)
2) TWRP (because we are going to use the file manager in recovery)
3) MIUI v7 Rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...t/miui-v6-note-3-n-9005-4-4-2-modded-t3170934
How to update MIUI v7: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/general/update-miui-v7-rom-updater-updates-t3398403
4) If your note 3 is not compatible with this MIUI as mine is then follow this instructions i made on another thread, look for MIUI Rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...-3-verizon-t3364341/post66501041#post66501041 If other device than N900V follow the "Other Note's 3" instructions
5) Patience and eyes to follow the instructions...
Steps: (make sure to download or flash the files above)
1- Reboot to recovery mode (be sure to have TWRP Recovery)
2- Now go to wipe, advanced wipe and select DALVIK, DATA, SYSTEM and CACHE (if you select sd card or internal storage you will lose all your personal data)
3- Go back and go to install and search the folder that Miui rom is in and select it and flash it.
4- Reboot.
5- Do the set up process normally, until the activation lock appears( if you can see your wifi networks on the set up and you remember you account password then enter the password and skip the next steps)
6- Take the battery out, put it back in; now press volume up + home + power until the phone screen turns on.
7- Go to mount and select system
8- Go back, go to advanced and press file manager
9- There go to data/data/ and press the little check mark down in the right
10- press delete and swipe to confirm
11- Now go back and reboot system
If you skip this steps you wont have lockscreen and will lack of Rom functions
12- Go and sing in to your MIUI Account and sing out (make sure you delete the device from the account)
13- Then reboot to recovery and wipe system, data, cache and dalvik again
14- Flash MIUI Rom again, and reboot.
15- Enjoy!
IF YOU DON'T KNOW ANY MIUI ACCOUNT, DON'T PRESS THE " Miui Account " IN SETTINGS OR YOU WILL HAVE THE ACTIVATION LOCK AGAIN
This doesn't work. I delete the /data/data folder, then reboot, and after some seconds "This device is locked" message appear again.
