Okay.... So I guess I screwed up somewhere, but basically here's what I did:
Rooted
Wiped
Installed the Eclipse ROM v1.3
Installed the Alien Glow Theme
Now I'm stuck in a boot loop... After going over my steps, I see where I screwed up. I guess for the theme, I have to be using Eclipse ROM 2.0+.
So yeah... Basically I didn't realize I had a lower version of the ROM. So now I've got the Eclipse v2.0.2 now and am wondering what I can do to fix this... Am I going to have to go back to stock and start this ALL over? Or is there any way I can flash the 2.0.2 ROM and re-flash the alien glow theme?

Actually, Eclipse is at version 2.0.3. Go to eclipserom.com and check out the topic "Go from stock/2.3.4 rom to Eclipse 2.0.3" by motcher41.

The usual suspect is that there is something on that theme that your rom doesn't have coding for.... like lockscreens. I've ran into similar problems myself trying to flash themes over Simply honey
So I am trying to install the Stock Deodexed ROM and i've wiped and all but when I got to install the zip, it aborts. It says failure at line 7. I have backups of Stock 2.3.4 i can restore to, so I can get to my goal of being at 2.3.5 for the Eclipse update tonight, but I'd rather a clean install. Why is the install aborting?

This has happen to me before. I had to sbf and then it was fine for a while. But recently I had the same iussue again but I had already made a back up of eclipse 1.3 so I am also hoping eclipse 2.0 goes ok for me as well.
Finishing up a restore of my stock, then to update. The only reason I am is because i installed the mash up rom and my signal was amazing for a day, and then today, it has picked up miniscule 3g, dropped it, and remained on low 1x.
Flashing the deodexed rom is unnecessary, all you have to do is sbf to 2.3.4, root, use rootkeeper (if you want), update, and flash eclipse when released.

When I received my phone, it was on GB 2.3.3. I got the OTA for 2.3.4. I am now rooted, and running Eclipse 1.3, with Speedy 7. I was trying to follow the steps to flash Eclipse 2.0.3, but when I tried to SBF to 2.3.4, it hangs on applying update in bootstrap. It just stays there, and never progresses to install. Is it supposed to take a long time to apply the update since my device was originally 2.3.3? I really want to update to the newest Eclipse, but this troubles me. It is possible I'm doing something wrong, but it does seem straight forward. Any help would be appreciated.
It hangs om applying update in recovery, just to clarify.

Make sure to apply update to 2.3.5 (.412 build) is applied using stock recovery not bootstrap. Phone off. Power and volume down button at same time. Volume down until you see stock recovery then volume up. When you see the triangle hit both volume buttons at same time. From stock recovery you install your update zip. Make sure to rename zip file to update first. Good luck.
Am I flashing 2.3.4 through bootstrap recovery, or stock? That's my issue, I do it through BSR, and it never applies the flash.
I know I need to SBF, but it never works.
To SBF, you need to use RSD Lite in Windows to flash 2.3.4. Once you've done that, apply the 2.3.5 update in android recovery. No need to to root until you've updated to 2.3.5. After you've applied the 2.3.5 update, root, install BSR and then install Eclipse using BSR.
Have a look at the first post in this thread. It looks like a lot but it's not as big a deal as it looks. You can just download the 2.3.4 file and use that. There's no need to do 2.3.3 first.

What does not work? Are you turning your phone off and powering it up and volume up at the same time to start your phone up in rsd mode. If not rsd it will not recognize your phone.
Also, before you SBF, boot into stock recovery and do a factory reset/data wipe.
After that, reboot and using RSD lite to SBF back to 2.3.4.
If you're new to SBFing, here's a link to a great tutorial to help you out:

Followed the directions, and I'm proud to say I am now running Eclipse 2.0.3! Thanks so much for your help!
Congratulations and enjoy. Dont forget to do a nano backup now and then you can play with some themes
Also i would highly recommend v6 supercharger. Moon shadow wrote up a good tutorial on how to install with 2.02 but it is the same for 2.03. If you are interested i can find you the link.
I have Speedy 7 installed, can I put in supercharger as well?

Hey guys,
I've seen some people asking for numbered battery mods for stock or StreakDroid4 2.5.0 ROMs so I put together a simple theme (thanks to UOT Kitchen) and wanted to share it with anyone who is interested.
The theme simply changes the look of status bar and the icons, battery, system menus, adds new Roboto font ( from ICS), ICS window animations and Blue Android boot animation. Also, due to Raven 2 kindly allowing us use some files from his theme, you will now get ICS-like Phone, Contacts, Gallery and Calendar apk. I'm attaching some screenshots so you can get a visual idea.
I'm running on StreakDroid4 2.5.0 but it may also work on the deodexed or stock 408 ROM.
As usual, I do not take any responsibility for any issues that the process may cause - proceed with caution
To install:
1.Download the zip file below
2. Flash via CWM
Big thanks to TheManii for his ROM and Raven 2 for letting us use his files in this theme.
Just in case you were wondering, the screen lock on the first image is Widgetlocker which isn't free, but you can download MagicLocker or MiLocker that have similar look for free. The launchers I used in the shots (just to show different looks) are Go Launcher EX (with ICS theme) and Espier Launcher both are free too. Also shown and used is another free app - Widgetsoid.

Thanks!

Your language is fine, no worries. Thanks for letting us use your files. I'm going to update the OP and attach the new theme file.
I'll try it out on my deoxed 408 and see how it goes. I just put TeamDRH ICS on my Viewsonic GTab (no thanks to Viewsonic - you suck) and would like a consistent interface across devices
Cool, let me know how it works/looks. It isn't the actual ICS UI but the color scheme and other mods at least remind you of one
It works great! I flashed with CWM, cleared cache & delvik, and fixed permissions for good measure. I especially like the battery icon. Now to find a way to port ICS over to this and we will be set. Maybe our new Korean friends are working on that?

Nice, glad to hear that. Yes, I agree about ICS port or a new ROM from our Korean friends would be great. I think one of their main contributors Kukjin11 is going to upload his ROM in a couple of days, so we will see from there

Thank you.

hey guys iam having the 408 olleh gb running on my phone with ravens theam on top of it..
can i upgrade it to ics them here.. if yes do i have to rename the file that has been given here....
if possible can some one please write the steps since iam very new to this stuff...
thanks alot guys..
hey crainz,
Do you have CWM installed? Are you on deodexed stock 408 ROM created by TheManii? The theme was based on deodexed ROM files from StreakDroid4 2.5.0 (which I use) and I believe it works on the deodexed 408 stock - both of which put together by TheManii. I don't know for sure if it works with a normal odexed ROM - so let's hear from TheManii or anyone else who can verify.
If you have CWM installed, you can easily flash files, like the StreakDroid4 2.5.0 which is basically stock with tweaks and debranded (so no Olleh stuff) and then flash my theme. I recommend you install Titanium backup and back up your apps and data so when you install a new ROM you can restore (or import) you saved data like passwords, shortcuts, game levels, and so on.
Edit: Here's the XDA Wiki page that TheManii created which has the links to SD4 2.5.0 and CWM Recovery downloads:

If you have CWM installed then you can go ahead and install StreakDroid4 2.5.0. However, you would need to do a factory reset first so back your data up using Titanium Backup (this is a free version) and then you can restore all your apps and data once you flashed SD4. After that just flash ICStock theme and you're good to go.
Thank a lot for the information streak4m3
Just 2 more question before i start the process of upgrade.
1. when i installed the CWM using this link

You switch mute to OFF hold both volume buttons down and power on. You will see a menu with 3 options, choose the one to upgrage SW package and choose with the camera button.
iam getting the Blue colour screen. iam not getting the CWM options.
Is this how it is suppose to work or am i doing something wrong.
2.Once i have flashed StreakDroid4 2.5.0 after renaming the file to upgrade.pkg.how do i flash the ICS theam?? IF you could kindly give me the steps that would be great..

OK, first of all you're not supposed to rename SD4 2.5.0 to update.pkg
Let's make sure I understand you correctly. You're saying that you have (or had) CWM installed and you verified that it works (worked), right? That means that you can (could) get to CWM recovery and see all the options, like: reboot system, install zip, wipe cache partition, advanced and so on, correct?
Are you now saying you can't get to CWM recovery? That it somehow goes to Dell stock recovery option which is blue (I think)? CWM mode has blue color text too so that's why it is a little bit confusing.
If you somehow lost CWM recovery just install it again and then simply flash SD4 2.5.0
i have seen the option that come with CWM reboot system, install zip, wipe cache partition, advanced and so on...
This comes once i have installed it using the instruction listed in the post...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1423002
i even was able to create a back up the rom on my system using CWM.. which got listed in the sdcard as well.
but once i shutdown the phone and start it again i dont get that CWM again it comes up with the blue dell flash tool.(which is in blue colour again) just like CWM
Just wanted to know if this is the same that happens in you case as well or are you able to get CWM evertime.
(if i install it again Iam able to get it to work once and them again back to the dell flash screen)
Just wanted to know if there is a way by which we can get it permenantly to work without having to flast it again and again..

CWM should be there every time - it's a permanent thing. You can install it again and flash SD4 2.5.0 during that one time that you can get into CWM recovery.
hey
Here is what i did. I flashed SD4 2.5.0 on my phone using CWM.. all went well
Then i flashed your ICS theme.. and restarted the phone.. that went well as well.
But what i did after that was i reset the phone to default using the option in settings.
The phone just stoped working completly.
It got stuck at the Blue Andriod startup... I tryed to do the process all over again...
No luck.... I think i have messed up my phone completly.
But before i started doing all this what i did was i took a back up of my phone using CMW..
So when restored the system back all came back using CWM the phone was back and working again...
What did i do wrong..... and is there any better way of doing this???

Not really sure what exactly may have happened in your situation. So are you up and running again? And why did you want to do a factory reset after flashing SD4 2.5.0?
If you're phone is not up and runing right now then you need to get to CWM if you can and just reflash SD4 and the theme. If you can't get to CWM, then you need to restore your phone using TheManii's steps in his thread for unbricking your phone (basically you would need to flash via fastboot options).
Hi I am new to the whole modding scene.
My girlfriend is tired of having her phone freeze and lock up, so I decided to load a nice Jelly Bean rom on it for her. She has a Verizon Samsung Fascinate.
I followed this tutorial here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mDH8NWyikJM
That I found on this roms site www.hellybean.com
I downloaded the 9/25 build.
I followed the tutorial, got it rooted, installed the teacmhacksung.... rom. rebooted and installed the hellybean rom. rebooted, reflashed hellybean again as it says to do. then installed the latest gapps 20120706 signed.zip
rebooted then it went all haywire. It shows the boot logo for hellybean for a split second then keeps booting to the devil recovery menu,:crying: no matter what i do.
I found a tutorial (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1238070) section 9.
I followed it until the second time I had to install the cm7 rom. after the second flash it keeps showing the boot menu for cm7 then 2 secs later it reboots constantly.
Good news is that I can get into CWM recovery with no problems (so glad I dont see devil recovery anymore lol )
I dont know what to do from here. I do have a backup but it is at the time of the infinate devil recovery situation, so that wont help me.
Any help at all would be greatly appricated, hell i would be ahppy with going back to stock if possible but I really want to see jelly bean on this thing
Thanks in advance!!
Chris
Not sure what could have happened there, you seem to be on the right track with following directions. I would Odin back to stock and try a different JB rom, such as AOKP or CM10, just follow droidstyle's guide on how to do that step by step.

I got it working no problems now. I used odin to go back to stock, re-rooted, and used AOKP 9/25 rom. It runs great, but the pink swagger unicorn has to go. What are some good sites to find boot animations? also are theme packs avaliable for this rom? I see the default 1/1 in the rom manager but nothing else is installed yet.
Thanks for the help
You can disable the boot animation in the rom settings...
As for themes, CM10 themes should work the same. Go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29455970#post29455970
Also, upgrade to 9/27 because it has the new partition layout with much more internal storage. It runs great with Devil Kernel 1.6.0. That's what I'm on now and it's fast as hell
