Hi
I have a stock HTC Hero (2.1-update1).
I would like to install Elelinux on it but I can't install CWM Rom Manager : the free version won't show up in the market and I have tried to download the app on their website, but when I try to install it I get an error about the package analysis...
I have also tried to install flashrec, but I also get an error when I want to back up...
Help would be appreciated
Thanks !
PS: my phone is rooted, and I still have the stock recovery
search in google 'rom manager apk' hopefully you should find one that works
already tried......
can't find one that works

ahhh ok. i remember when i had this problem on a custom rom. i managed to find an apk that worked (sorry i don't have it anymore otherwise i would upload it for you to try it out). the one i had was quite an old version of rom manager because the newer versions didn't seem to work.
if you had recovery i would maybe be able to help you further (although i'm guessing if you had recovery you wouldn't have this problem )
i'm sorry but thats all i got, maybe someone with more knowledge than me will be able to help you a bit more
I do have the recovery rom, but I can't flash it.
Do you know how to do it without using Rom Manager ?

no, sorry. that sort of stuff is way beyond what i know
EDIT: you could take a look at this guide http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Hero_(GSM):_Full_Update_Guide if you do decide to do it that way then its at your OWN risk. there are also a few guides here on XDA you could take a look at
Okay I'll give a look thanks.
I'll be back here to explain how it went
i have the same problem..nd i found a working rom manager from 4shared..version is 3.xx something..i can flash clockwork but then again cannot boot into recovery mode...no luck for me i guess
I'm on the HTC Heroine rom and had the same problem.
But I could recover the rommanager apk from Titaniumbackup and it installed.
It is rommanager version 4.3 I think. Not the latest but at least it works
Here is the link.
http://www.2shared.com/file/DqmG6ABU/rommanager43.html
Install notes:
Just open the apk file with your favorite android file browser and install it.
Let me know if it works, I also have an more older version that I can upload on request.

Hi.
Could somebody pls provide an official GB image (v20a,v20c, v20g) as recovery flashable zip?
And while being at it, a stock GB kernel as flashable zip would also be nice.
Thanks in advance.
marco
PS: I'm aware you need a new baseband.
Here you go:

Flash it at your own risk.
thank you very much!

I do not understand how to install this rom? I put the stockrom.zip on SD, i boot in to recovery (Custom Recovery), i chose install zip from SD card and i receive "Ïnstallation aborted" message. Any help? Thx in advance
Its probably not signed so u must disable the check.
And i have a feeling you arent aware of the baseband problem.

to be honest i haven't tried to flash the provided zip to my phone.
After being fed up with all the drawbacks of the custom GB roms, i used lgmdp and did the install process all the way from the beginning.
Right now i'm using stock unrooted v20g, not one single problem with the phone and with 50+ hours runtime i'm at 30% battery.
If somebody could give me a quick howto how to create a flashable image from an already installed phone, i'd do that and put that image online.
best regards
I googled a bit and will try to put something together this evening. I'll get back here when i got something.

So i upgraded to ICS but now the andriod market/google play app is missing and i cannot dl any other apps bc of this. when i go the google play website, the device is listed but faded and cannot be selected. Please help thank you. this was the rom i used for ics i got from this site. thanks.
did you flash the latest gapps via cwm after installing the rom?
i dont know what that is or how to do it.
well im assuming since you got a custom rom on it, you managed to install clockwork recovery (cwm). can you link the thread that you followed to get the rom on your tab for me please?
i followed these directions but i didnt purposely install a cwm. after reading what it was, i thought it was just the DOS looking screen where you load things using the buttons on the top (like how you reformat it).
yaknow---theandroidsoul.com/ice-cream-sandwich-galaxy-tab-10-1-wifi----
i wasn't aware you can install a custom rom through stock recovery. anyway the file you need is this
http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-ics-20120317-signed.zip
i don't know if whatever recovery you're using will install it, since i've only ever flashed roms and gapps via cwm
so i install as like an update like i did the ics rom?

Hi, I'm trying to flash the latest version (6.0.1.0) of the ClockworkMod recovery onto my GT-I9100 but I cant downland the required zip file.
The ROM Manager app gives me a download failed message, and the link on the website does not work, I suspect the app just uses the same download. I would post the link but the site wont let me as it's my first post.
Can anyone help. Is there an alternative download link I can use. I notice the links for 6.0.1.0 for other phone models seem to work but I'm not sure about using them on mine.
Cheers
i have the same problem

In samsung phones the recovery isn't separate. It's bundled along with the kernel
To use CWM6 flash a kernel which uses CWM6 like latest Siyah.
Don't use ROM Manager on GSII to flash recoveries.

flashing a custom kernel like siyah will not wipe ur apps or data ma8, it will only add the latest CWM recovery to the phone, so u can flash it without any issues

Dear reader,
I've been trying to root my phone for a couple of days now. (Sony Xperia Ray ST18i)
I've browsed to numerous forums/websites in search of a good tutorial/guide to help me do it.
Finally i've managed to find youtube clips which helped me step by step to getting it done.
First thing i did was this:
How to unlock BootLoader on Xperia Ray[Official 4.0.4 ICS]
[Can't post links on here yet because of the spam block. If you look for the title on youtube, you should be able to find it]
I already encountered my first problem there. I wasn't able to unlock bootloader on my android 4.0.4 so i downgraded my phone to gingerbread 2.3.4. After that i repeated the unlock bootloader tutorial and i succesfully managed to unlock it.
After this i tried to root my phone with the easy rooting kit v.1.0
This worked but after turning my phone on, i noticed that the phone wasn't actually rooted yet.
After contacting the person who made the bootloader video, he told me that i had to flash my kernel. So i went ahead and used another of his video tutorials. (don't mind his english accent btw)
How to flash costum kernel[Sony Xperia Ray]
[Can't post links on here yet because of the spam block. If you look for the title on youtube, you should be able to find it]
Now this, running with gingerbread 2.3.4. worked without a problem and i currently have a custom kernel installed onto my phone.
This is where i run into my problem.
According to his next video tutorial:
How to root Xperia Ray
[Can't post links on here yet because of the spam block. If you look for the title on youtube, you should be able to find it]
He shows that you need to be in your phone's regular menu, in order to root your phone with the easy root kit made by DooM.
My problem is that i currently am stuck in the phone kernel menu. When i try to let my phone load up normally, it just keeps rebooting.
The kernel menu btw looks exactly the same like the one shown in the link below:
Xperia play (HOW TO ROOT, FLASH KERNEL, FLASH ROM )
[Can't post links on here yet because of the spam block. If you look for the title on youtube, you should be able to find it]
Now i've tried my best to be as detailed as possible with what my current situation is.
My question would be: What am i doing wrong and how can i root my phone from where it is right now, because as it stands. I'm unable to use my phone.
Kind Regards,
Cashtecz
ps. ( i did a quick search on the forums but i haven't come across as post that shares the same problem as i have)

Oh one more question.
Is it possible, after rooting my phone to update my android to the latest version?
The current rom that i'm using doesn't have google play store in it, and i would like to have it so i can install apps such as whatsapp.
Sincerely,

If your bootloader is unlocked, not via pc companion or over the air.
On which rom are you currently on?
Normally you do a backup with for example titanium backup and flash the custom kernel, install the custom rom and restore the titanium backup...
P.S.: For every android version there is a zip file which contains the "gapps" (google apps like playstore) which you can flash with clockworkmod

They say, you should download them from CM 7.2 thread. Just look here and select the lastest apps for gb (gingerbread) (or just look here).

Yes and no, the gapps aren't specific for cyanogenmod, just use the link i posted. Flash them, but rachit.rc96 posted an invalid link, cause they were for ics...

Yes i did exactly what the guide said:
8. Now select “Wipe Data / Factory Reset” and then “Wipe partition cache” option (this is why you need to backup your data from the Xperia Ray).

Thank you all so much for your help.

Hello guys,
my name is Raphnika and I am complete new to this.
I've tried to flash my Samsung S3 with a custom ROM like the Pacman one.(KK 4.4 or something like that).
I was not able to install it on my device so I tried the Android Revolution HD ROM and that worked for me fine.
It seems like I am not able to flash any KK ROMs to my S3. I keep getting a Status 7 Error...
I googled it and tried many solutions but none of them worked. It might be to the fact that I am a complete noob to this.
I hope you guys can help me!
lots of greetings,
Raph
