Hi,
I've been playing around with various apps, mods, launchers etc. out here rescently, and was unable to flash some of them.
First thought was they might be incompatible with my device, but some out of hero forums aren't working as well.
some hardware info:
Device: HTC Hero [T-Mobile Google G2]
rooted: yes
ROM: Elelinux v 2.3 (based upon cyanogenmod v7)
recovery: latest clockworkmod avillable for hero, i think it's 2.5.0.7 (?)
Strange thing now is, if I try flashing some .zip via "flash .zip from sdcard" my phone doesn't seem to like, it first says "opening file... starting installation..." (or something like that, just the usual way) and then completely resets clockworkmod returning to starting page as if i just had rebooted into recovery. anyone had similar problems? or can help? would be glad about it as for now i can't use lots of wonderful mods the devs are working on
just for interest, has/ will hero get clockworkmod v3? hero CDMA already got it...
thanks in advance,
summonerofdeath
Which .zip did you try flash?
Try with Amon Ra's recovery.
I don't think it will.
Flashed for example Rover theme and extras for it. Was able to flash extras but not the theme. Weird. Wasn't able to flash some modded-to-look-like-senseUI-ADW-launcher too, always same strange behaviour like said above. As well, sometimes got the issue of successfully flashing zip files with no effect, means no changes.
Already tried amonra, no solution for me as it can't handle unsigned zip files and no special folders.
Thanks & greets,

Very odd, have others reported problems with it?
It sounds like a bad package file to me, maybe.
For the problem of flashing zips with no changes, manually mount /system and flash again. This usually sorts it.
And for your other problems get me a recovery log and I'll have a look, you can find this by flashing your non-working file and then going to advanced and report error. That will save a log on to your SD-card under clockworkmod.

Recovery's revenge
hi,
just flashed elelinux again and wasn't able to flash...
- ADW launcher
- Angry Birds for Hero
- Rover Theme
- Optimus 2X Theme
- ArcSwift theme
attached recovery.log, had a look at it: just restarts after checking update binary... i am no pro, but this seems strange to me...
this bug starts gettin on my nerves......
greets, Summoner
ooooookay found SOME of the issues.
angry birds: just renamed . zip to .apk and installed
rover theme: had no update script, but .apks in the zip
only strange thing, some zips with update script wont install :/

See 2nd post
Just recently noticed my SU icon went to the ninja and not the normal SU cross-bones icon.
When I boot into recovery (to flash another rom) I get E:.../cache/update.zip.
I re-install packages...all is well, except it reboots the phone instead of going into the recovery menu.
*2.2 stock build (jk6) from Som
Is my update.zip file screwed? I still have SU permissions on the phone, but cannot flash anything new...I tried DL'ing the original SU app from the market, but it keeps getting aborted during installation. Phone runs great, but I am now stuck with this rom combo and cannot experiment. What would cause this? How do I go about fixing it?
I have tried using a new update.zip several times but the same problem persists.
Alright...posted this as I was trying everything (been dicking around with this for 2 days).
***FIXED***
*I in no way take responsibility to what happens to your phone if you follow my fix
Here's how:
*New update.zip on sd card

ROM: Cyanogen Froyo CM6-Latest (based on MiniCM/CM6v2) - All working! + Hotfix v1.1
Question: Do i need second partition in SD card to install this? Or i can have only one partition and also will be able to move apps to sd card.
Thank you.
Solution to Post 2:
You won't need any second partition to move apps, I even recommend not using any other partition cause froyo does a good job with this!
ROM: MiniCM v1.1
ROM: MiniCM v1.1
Question: Is this ROM undervolted (battery life is most important for me) if not, is it possible to undervolt it easy way (through xrec for example)
Question2: does your hotfixes install through xrec?
Question3: Can we expect a full build with all hotfixes + ldpi fix included soon?
Solution to Post 4:
Q1: The overclocked version is also undervolted if you want stock and undervolted set it to 600 MHz with setcpu (on boot). The not OCed version is not undervolted but i'll add this maybe later
Q2: Yes all hotfixes on first post will always be xrec flashable only thing is to keep the order while flashing so hotfix1 first and then flash hotfix2 and so on.
Q3: Yes but for now the changes have been to small for me to upload another full release
ROM: MiniCMv1.2

Question: What's the best and fastest way to backup your contacts, cause it's the only thing i want to transfer to this ROM after i update.
Sorry for making so many different posts with questions, not all of them came to my mind at the same time
Solution to Post 6:
Download MyPhoneExplorer in market and download myphoneexplorer for pc enable usb debugging and connect your phone via usb open myphoneexplorer and mini pro and pc and sync contacts.
Install rom and download myphoneexplorer from market again and sync with pc again. all contacts,sms,calls,calendar can now be restored.
ROM: MiniCM v1.2
ROM: Cyanogen Froyo CM6-Latest (based on MiniCM/CM6v2) v1.3
Question: Hi, I'm new on XDA. Your job is very impressive. I need a little help.
I already installed xRecover, but every time I try to install the rom I got the following error:
Output from Recovery.log
Code:
-- Installing: SDCARD:update.zip
Finding update package...
I:Update location: SDCARD:update.zip
Opening update package...
I:Update file path: /sdcard/update.zip
minzip: Missed a local header sig (at 16)
E:Can't open /sdcard/update.zip
(bad)
Installation aborted.
Mount /dev/block/mtdblock0 on /system read-only
I've tried using install Update.zip option, also with install custom zip. Same output for both and for the original filename too. Also checked the MD5 of the file and it was ok. Later I downloaded [ROM] Cyanogen Gingerbread CM7 Final Sources (v13.0 + Hotfix #2) and I installed it without problems. Now I don't know what could be the problem. I googoled a lot about this but no one has a final answer.
Any help would be great
ROM: MiniCMv1.3
Question: I've been using this ROM almost for a day now, it's really impressive. Everything is very stable and works fine. There is only one thing, some apps are not installing from Stock market. For example Angry birds. I don't really need it, but i think it's related to the size of the app so it might come up in other big applications, cause every smaller app downloads and installs fine. Then i try to download and install it, it just starts downloading and disappears after few seconds. Deleting all cache files helps for one time, then you need to delete it again and install another big application. Is there any way to fix it without deleting the cache file?
Bug: Well this is not really a bug, just wanted to say that this ROM has really weak reception, at least until i tried your 1.4hotfix. Where i had 0 blocks i now have 2, and where i had 2 i have 4, so this hotfix definitely works for me. Thank you.
Bug2: Maybe it's just me but keyboard light is on everytime you open it, doesn't matter if it's dark or not. As far as i remember it worked differently in stock rom (maybe i'm wrong).
For the people who are asking about battery life. I have observed how much battery does it use in standby mode. And with almost the same settings as in Stock 2.1 i managed to get about 2hours with 1% of battery. It's still a bit worse than stock where i got about 3.5hours with 1%. I just recently installed reception hotfix and will try to observe the battery life now, i think i'll manage to reach about 3hours with 1%. Gona inform you all later about this.

You could move some of the larger apps on to the SD card by going to settings/applications/manage applications, select the application you want to move and select move to SD. This will make more space on the phones flash memory allowing you to download larger apps from the market. Some apps won't allow you to move them to the SD card but most seem to allow it so try a few.
I've never had this problem so can't say for sure but it seems an intuitive fix.
Cheers

well phone has plenty of free memory (168mb currently), so that's not the case. but still thanks for reply

ROM: Cyanogen Gingerbread CM7 Final Sources
Bug(s): Only know problems: reboot, camera and radio
But i can use without problem.
Your work is great!
Thanks
ROM: Cyanogen Gingerbread CM17 Final Sources v13
Bug(s): Camera App is in some kind of asian language (yeah i know its listed that the app is buggy but maybe its helpfull), the radio and Barnacle keeps crashing when _stop_ it, if its on it works fine, all my devices can connect but when i switch it off, my U20i reboots. Also sometimes my U20i freezes for a few seconds, but no reboot.
Other stuff works fine, awesome rom!

Hi! I've been using the search feature and How Tos, but my problem is that I just received a warranty replacement Fascinate for my speaker going out, prior to yesterday I was rolling happily along with CommRom UKB, but now with ED05 already on my phone I'm not sure I want to back track... I want to try ccampos784's [ROM][ED05] PowerWashed ED05 ROM and Debloated Touchwiz ED05 ROM, and I have the zip, I understand how to flash that, but don't I need an odin file? And to get CWM or something? Should I use the ones I have from before (cwm-recovery-ALL-3-30-FIX.tar)? and since the Odin file for ED05 is stock, not rooted wouldn't that just be a circle and put me where I am with Stock ED05. My main reason for rooting is Debinging, so... can anyone help me out here please? I think I am just confusing myself more the more I try to research....
download the powerwash ed05.zip and push to your sd
odin cwmall.tar
three finger boot into recovery
wipe data
install zip from sd
Should work fine installing over your current ed05 build...atleast it did for me.
*edit
btw the powerwash ed05 rom is already rooted/debloated/debigned/deodexed/zipaligned/go launcher...etc
Thanks!!!
So Simple and what I've done a bunch of times, I was just making it way more complicated than it needed to be, thanks for the clear "Just do this" Basically. Now I'm embarrassed that I had to ask...
I've rooted and installed roms on other phones before, but this one has me really confused. Currently I've rooted using the ubuntu guide, installed cwm-3-30fix, "modified stock firmware" found in some guide out there that said it was needed to install "latest cwm recovery" which was red 3.xx, curently still on the 2.5cwm 3-30fixall recovery. So should I go back to stock ED04? Update to ED05? Place point me in the direction to install cm7 or other rom. And from what I've read I also need to worry about the modems now? I also tried installing the rom managers recovery, then learned from another thread it doesn't work with the fascinate.

Sorry firmware is 2.2.1 according to my phone. Baseband ed04

Your question cannot be directly answered, but Ill try my best...
-flash the version of cwm that the rom you are trying to install calls for.
-I use cwm 2.5.1.x for all stock rom's and the older froyo roms
-Some newer roms require cwm3
-All mtd roms such as miui, cm7, VGB require cwm4
Read the vanilla gingerbread thread in the development section and that should bring you up to speed. I recommend to odin the verizon official ed05 package in the development section. One reason being you do not need to flash a modified kernal to get cwm to stick. Also the powerwash ed05 package is debinged/ debloated/deodexed/ zip aligned/ rooted. Its a nice functional rom with some tsm enhancements.
Thank you for giving me a place to start! is there info on the modems/radios in the vanilla thread?

There is an app in the market that allows you to make odin backups. Its called odin maker. Haven't tried it yet though. This might be useful at some point in your endeavors.

Nice! ill have to play around with that...
Thanks Droidstyle! Now I'm on ED05 powerwash. Nice speed compared to stock. I'm very happy now.
Glad to hear you guys are happy with the ROM! Just as a reminder, the PowerWash ROM has been updated since yesterday up to beta v4 and resolves some issues. Check the main thread for more details.
Is anyone else having problems with app storage on the powerwash ROM?
I originally loaded the ROM and after restoring my backups from Titanium the phone became an unusable due to constant crashes of just about everything imaginable. Tried wiping it and restoring a few apps at a time - worked fine until I rebooted at which point all my prefs were gone and the same crashes started before I could even unlock the screen.
So, I decided maybe it was a problem with my backups and decided I'd start clean. I did a full wipe and discovered that I can't install more than about 4 apps before I start getting insufficient space errors. When I go to settings->phone storage, I still have 1.42GB free under internal phone storage.
I've now done the following procedure twice top-to-bottom, and end up with the same results:
- ODIN ED05 OTA ROM & .pit file.
- Boot into ED05
- Setup Google Account
- Load Market -> Install Maps, all 3 Angry Birds variants, Beautiful Widgets, Pocket Cloud (just a few big apps to prove there is no problem with my hardware and that it works under stock).
- Reboot & ODIN CWM.
- Flash PowerWash beta4, wipe davlik, data, cache, battery stats. Confirm voodoo is off.
- Boot into PWb4.
- Setup Google Account
- Load Market -> Install BW, PocketCloud, Maps, Angry Birds. After this, all additional app installs fail due to insufficient space.
A df from the command line shows 1.4GB free on /data and none of the other partitions are 100% full, so I don't think this is a voodoo-partition-with-a-non-voodoo-kernel problem.
As I said, I've done this whole thing twice. Apps install fine on Stock, fail on PowerWash. Nobody else seems to be complaining, so this must be an obvious thing I'm missing, but I'm not sure what. Any help?
OK, this may not be directly ROM related, but I'm not sure how to work around it. From what I can tell, every time I load the market, it must be background updating from 3.0.26 to 3.0.27. If I go into applications, wipe the data and uninstall the update, I can then go into the market and install one additional app. When I try to install another, I'm told there is no space, but if I go to the Applications control panel, I'll see that I've been upgraded to 3.0.27 again. If I uninstall the update and repeat the process, I can get yet another app, but the process keeps repeating itself.
Is there a way to either lock the 3.0.26 market version or to flash back to the old market?

Want to try this out for me? It flashes back the old market that came with ED05 stock. Flash in CWM, then once you boot up go into settings>applications> Market and clear data and cache on it to clear up any issues.

There's another thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16324333) with another person having the same issue. Seems to be related to the latest market.
I had just finished doing about what you are recommending when you posted.
For reference for anyone else - Once I started searching beyond just the fascinate forums, I've found that 3.0.27 causes problems for a lot of people on other platforms (mostly apps over 30MB will fail, but others at random as well), and there doesn't seem to be a way to block the update from 3.0.26. You have to roll back to the 2.x version (which I did), and that seems to fix the problem.
I'd suggest leaving the 2.x version in the future version of the ROM and making the 3.0 market an addon if people want to experiment with it after google hammers out the bugs.
(Alternatively, people have had luck making a temporary /cache partition inside an ext4 img file, but that seems complicated and hacky to include in a ROM).
Thanks!

Actually, this might be fixed soon, since a voodoo kernel is in the making and it uses Ext4 partitions. Can't give you an ETA (and it's not my kernel), but check the couple last posts in the main ROM thread for details.

Hi, thanks for the rom! Silly question - how do I flash the .zip file? Do I have to rename it to update.zip and then install from sd card in the recovery mode?
No, you don't need to. You can use the recovery to install the file from any location.
I'd just like to let you know, DSP Manager works out-of-box on stock SE without replacing audio libs.

Thanks. I've managed to flash the new ROM. Get past the boot screen thinking all good until I get this message: "Sorry! The Application HTC_IME mod (process jonasl.img) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." Force Close.
I've installed the compatible kernel so not sure what's gone wrong here.
All I can do is power down the device, no access to menus etc

You will get a FC on first boot with the HTC_IME mod. It's only because there is no data folder associated with it. It will FC and create it's own data

No luck I'm afraid, will keep exploring!
Quick question, will this rom work on a R800a?
Thanks, I have a little experience with flashing android phones and the iPhone. I don't have that much concrete knowledge of the "in's & out's" of the phone but I'm very good at following directions to the "T"...
Thank you very much. Looking forward to your rom
Hi guys,
First of all, thanks for the great community, good to be here
I've just got my mediapad at a bargain as 2nd hand and installed 'CleanICE 1.5 Rom (ICS 4.0.3). It has a really great response and installed with such little effort on my part so cheers h25p. I considered a couple other ROMS too, particularly the one posted by 'after_silence', http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1856571 CM10 but it is said to have issues with HDMI out (which is an important feature to me) so I haven't tried that one yet.
What I'm trying to do now is boot in to Recovery (so I can install GoogleNow as per this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1843457) but can't seem to figure it out for this ROM.
Has anyone had success doing so with ICS? Or better yet, anyone with experience of the 'glitchy HDMI' on the CM10 Jellybean ROM (is it really bad or is it workable most of the time)?
Cheers guys!
[edit]
used auto recovery installer and got CWM on the device now (after_silence provides link to it here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1856571)
i thought installing that would wipe everything else so to other newbies, don't be concerned. it's just installing the recovery manager and nothing else is affected
after that i went and installed the 'GoogleNowforICSInstaller_v1.1.zip' (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1843457) from sd card in CWM but sadly when it boots up there is still no google now. any ideas on where to proceed from here?
Maybe our recoveries doesn't support aroma installer. Try to flash twrp instead of cwm or put manually lib and apk/apks from zip to your system folder (same as it is located in zip), set perrmisions to apk and reboot.

thank you for your suggestion, it has got me one step closer (well I suppose anyway). perhaps from here it is just something to do with the gnow port just not being compatible with my rom? after I install it manually and recheck all the permissions via my file manager, whenever i go to google search it simply says "unfortunately, google search has stopped."
Try to find another moded version. I tried it on stock fw (ICS) few mounths ago and it worked.

Thanks, also posted a logcat dump for one of the Gnow developers and they said there was a lot of location / graphics card errors and also suggested to try another ROM. Ended up flashing JB 4.1.1 AOKP for mediapad 30.1 Final (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1876676) and enjoying GoogleNow which comes built in with it.
So far I'm really surprised at how much better it is - initially thought my battery was failing ( purchased my device 2nd hand) but the drain is really low now with this ROM. Seems a bit faster over all too. Didn't test out the HDMI function yet but hope that's not as bad as it sounds. Keeping my eyes open on the development of the 4.2.2 nightlys thread and will probably head over to that once HDMI and bluetooth is working a bit better there
