I'm new to this so I hope this is not a stupid question:
I have successfully install Xron-ified 3.3.2 on my HP touchpad a few days ago but now I would like to install the new revision that came out yesterday vB1.3 (12/11).
What is the proper procedure to flash a new version over an older installed version.
I just wanted to know before I jumped in.
Thanks

Are you familiar with rebooting into recovery? Do that, and then select "Install ZIP from SDcard" and install it, and then do a factory reset.
This is all assuming you downloaded it onto you Touchpad already.
There is no need to wipe, but do a nand or titanium backup incase things go wrong
I've been from Alpha 3 - Alpha 3 - back to ALpha 2 - Xron 1.2 Beta - Xron 1.3 Beta without wiping
Just go to Recovery, clear cache, wipe dalvik cache and install zip from sd card and pick the rom package

How to update from v 1.0
this is my first post, so yeah im a noob, but just want to ask if i was on Resurrection ics v1.0, how could i update? do i just jump to the most recent update, or is there a certain update i have to flash first before moving on? ive tried to flash the v1.4 but then it would'nt boot, then i restored a backup, tried a couple times even from a fresh stock rom, but still it couldnt boot, what do you think the problem is?
sorry for all the questions
i was on resurrection now i dual boot 1.8 with siyah 3.1.2 with D4 rom( which is amazing btw) try 3.1.2 siyah and see if it works - im avoiding RC's and betas for kernel since the brickings, unless you want the features from rc5
@yugorisfriwan you don't need to install any update, go straight to the last version.
To install
1- full wipe & wipe cache
2- install rom
3- wipe dalvik
4- reboot (it takes time to boot the first time so be patient)
5- install another kernel (siyah of instance) otherwise you are done.
Now to my question
I have the version 1.8.1 and siyah kernel 3.2b8 everything works great except that I cannot access my external sdcard on my computer. I also tried the default and thoravukk kernels but they give the same result.
Thx in advance for your help

hey i am using this remix rom right from the ver 7.4 now on v1.8.1 what i sugesst u first is 2 install v1.7 then u upgrade it 2 the new v1.8.1 by simply flashing it over v1.7 without any wipes that way u wont have any issues in installation
PS: while installing 1.7 u do a full wipe
ie
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache part
wipe dalvik cache
then install v1.7
then again wipe cache
wipe dalvik cache
Fix permissions
reboot 2 system
boot takes a while?
So how long do i have to wait for the phone to actually boot after updating? So ive flashed the updates, but when i select reboot now, it then comes to the Galaxy s ii i19100 splash screen. Now i have waited for at least 5 minutes, and nothing happened yet, so just restored my backup in fear of something going wrong am i too inpatient or is that just taking to long? how many minutes do i actually have to wait until its a sure flash fail? thx in advance!
5 minutes is too long, are you sure that you have done a full wipe before installing the rom and then wiped the dalvik cache after. The only time when my phone wouldn't boot was when I had forgotten to do the wipes.
anyway just redo the process and make sure you do everything (don't flash any kernels) and just leave the phone for few more minutes than last time. otherwise try to install another version (1.7 for instance) and see if it boots this time

hey which rom ur trying 2 install if its v1.7 of remix then first flash the cm9 kernel dwnld'ng the same from OP (original post in page 1 of remix ics thread) section after that reboot 2 cm9 recovery and then flash 1.7 it will be ok
5 minutes are too long mate. before flashing make sure that the current rom you are on has default CM9 kernel (for version 1-1.8)
After that follow the steps:
1.wipe data/factory reset
2.wipe cache partition
3.install main rom
4.go in advance and wipe dalvik cache and then fix permissions
5.wipe cache partition again and reboot
6.after ur first reboot u can then flash kernels,themes,and mods
enjoy
So... if im still on resurrection version 1.0, would installing the stock cm9 kernel work? .... then i could update?
So any workarounds on accessing the external sd on the computer?!!?

This seems to be a bug with the rom. I got the same problem on 1.4 and on 1.8.1. It will only mount the internal mass storage.
To work around this: Mount it with CWM. Works for me.
I've had CM9 installed on my GT-I9100 for a while now, and was upgrading the Nightlies for a bit, but haven't done for a few months. I decided it's time to finally upgrade my CM9 so I downloaded the latest Nightly.
I copied it onto my phone, and went into CWM 5.5.0.4
I cleared the Cache Partition and the Dalvik Cache and then installed the ROM. I then restarted CWM and fixed permissions and then rebooted my phone, however once I do this, it just hangs on the SGS2 Loading screen with the yellow triangle. Is there anyway to fix this at all so I can update my CM9? I also have the latest Google Apps downloaded but have not installed them yet.
The details in the about phone section are:
Baseband Version - I19100XXLPH
Kernel Version - 3.0.15-I19100XXLP6-CL72050 [email protected] #3
CM9 Version - 9-20120318-NIGHTLY-galaxys2
Build Number - IML74K
are you still on boot screen?
if you have backed up apps, reflash after a wipe data factory reset,
I'm trying to avoid a factory wipe if possible. If not, then I'll do it. Luckily I always do a CWM backup before upgrading so I have my phone back still.
try with only wipe cache and dalvik before and after flashing..
still no hope...then backup apps with TB do factory reset.
Flash cm9 again and nothing else. If that doesn't work then flash latest siyah. That should do it.
Sent from my sgs2 running cm9
After messing around with a few of your ideas, i managed to get it working!
Thanks!
Hello,
I'm using Calkulin+Clemsyn 1.5ghz Froyo Combo VERSION 8 final (bootloader 1.2 only)
I did this steps to flash it, I'm 1.2 bootloader.
1. Download Calkulin's Format all zip and use CWM to install it.
2. Go to Advance, and Clear Dalvik-cache
3. Then wipe data/cache
4. Install from zip
It install fine and I boot up, but if I restart my g tab I get stuck on the two birds.
Any help is greatly appreciated! thanks
I would like to update this thread that I successfully fixed it!
How how how?
So I'm in the exact same boat as you. I have tried multiple ROMs thiking they were to blame. But I'm now in the same predicament.
What did you do to fix this problem?
Don't use CWM ICS, use the old version.
Hi,
I've recently rooted my phone and installed my first ROM - Resurrection Remix - and it's notified my of an update (v3.1.3) and downloaded the zip for me. My question is how do I safely update RR?
When I first installed it I had to perform a number of steps wiping and clearing things before installing from a zip using CWM. Hopefully I don't have to do all of these as I don't want to have to completely reinstall every update, but do I have to do any of them still or do I just install from the zip in CWM without any other steps?

Have you read the first posts of the ROM thread?
Maybe there is a description of how to install the update.
If not, then you can just flash the update zip file in CWM recovery and try to reboot normally.
If everything works fine ... that's it.
If you have issues, boot into recovery, wipe cache and Dalvik cache and reboot normally again.
If that does not help, then you might have to wipe data (do a factory reset) in recovery.
But I think that these steps are not needed as you are already on this custom ROM.
(Usually you only have to do the complete wipe steps when coming from another / stock ROM - and the other way round.)
Good luck !
P.S.: Always create a nandroid backup before flashing. So you are able to "go back" if needed.
I have a sch-i500 that is rooted with cwm working.
I am very interested in running liquid smooth v 2.9 found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2245120
so I did a format, wiped the cache and davlik. when I installed the zip from external sd card the phone immediately gave me a screen for CWM v 6.0.3.3.
I can still navigate and restore old back ups but the phone does not go past the Samsung logo on the boot screen. Any advice is appreciated.
I was previously running stock 2.3.5 E09 if that helps
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1026746
seems to be the best way for me to recover from this (looks like I flashed a non voodoo rom without removing voodoo) but I am unable to get the phone into download mode with or without the battery in the phone.
please help......(update) Alright, I am a moron. needed to have a powered usb port. on my way to recovery. thanks for having all this great info in one place.

Oh so close.
When coming from 2.3.x ROM you will need to flash the rom (liquid: or other 4.2.x) you will need to flash 2 more times...
The 1st flash get you into the new recovery only,,, as you found out.
2nd flash will pop up with an error message about incompatible partition and telling you to re-flash again,,,
So 3rd flash actually installs your new ROM
Then install a current/compatible Google gapps
.
Enjoy

Thank you, I am getting closer.
still on the second and third flash of the rom I get a satus 7 error which I think is a bootloader issue.
I have flashed the GBbootloader.tar through odid to no avail and am following Section:4 How to flash any ICS 4.0.x & 4.x.x JellyBean based rom

what does the error say besides status 7?
did you odin the CWM4 fixed for cm7 then install the ROM 3 times?
can you get a pic up for us to see?
just to be sure......using odin, I repartitioned with the pit, and flashed a E03 rom. rebooted the phone fine.
flashed the CWM4 fix for 7 and redid the GB bootloaders as well.
went into recovery and factory reset, wiped cache, and dalvik.
installed liquid-JB-v2.7-Official-fascinatemtd.zip this time first time took me directly to clockwork where I flashed again. prompted with install from sdcard complete. repeated and got same message.
factory reset, wipe, wipe and flashed gapps. Everything seems to have worked this time with the v2.7Official instead of 2.9. I will play with this for just a bit and probably try it again tonight with a fresh downloaded copy of v2.9. I really do appreciate your assistance and help and I would not have gotten this far without the forum.
update:
flawless installation of v2.9 since 2.7 was already installed. (installed via cloclwork mod recovery)
It was most likely an operator error that prevented me from installing 2.9 after E03. But I don't see the benefit of going back to recreate why it didn't work. Thanks again all is good and right.
