[Q] CM9 Gone After WebOS update? - TouchPad General

Hey guys,
This morning I opted to boot into WebOS as opposed to CM9 and the device automatically updated. After the device successfully updated I attempted to reboot in order to boot into CM9, but there is no longer an options menu and the device just boots right into WebOS.
The device is now running: 3.0.5
Has anyone experienced this? Do I have to repeat the whole process?
Thanks!

What did it update to?

WebOS version 3.0.5

You probably just need to reinstall moboot updating webos shouldnt do anything to cm

Thanks Barron. Any idea how I can do that without access to clockwork mod? My touch pad looks totally stock right now.

[Q] Fastboot/2nd init

so i installed the second init apk on my phone two days ago, and since then when i reboot it its almost like the fastboot on my wifes inspire...i have ginger blur 4.5 installed and whenever i reboot it doesnt go all the way to the red m when i reboot it goes straight to the green one and reboots very fast. did i do something wrong or what?
Ive got the same thing...hmmm

Yup. Mine goes straight to the animated Droid blue eye.
so is this good, bad, or does it provide any open doors for future hacks?
I would assume that any increase in boot time would be a good thing haha.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
I noticed the same thing. I never put 2 and 2 together I was planing on a sbf flash so I wanted to try the 2nd init install before I did. Weird
is that a good thing?
I think it is skipping the bootloader and kernel on reboot and just rebooting the system partition. If I understand it, that's how we would load a custom rom.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
Please read what 2nd-init is before just haphazardly installing it. There isn't anything out right now that currently uses it on the Atrix, so unless you're developing you shouldn't really bother with installing it.

The thing that sucks is newer people root and then d/l ROM Manager and as soon as they open it it says "hey flash this new broke a$$ recovery." So they do it cuz newer is better right?? Then we get 43 threads titled my ROM won't flash/backup won't restore/ yadda yadda yadda.

Have you tried turning the phone off then holding volume down + power untill the bootloader screen appears and then manually selecting recovery? ROM Manager tends to have issues.

reinstall rom manager and flash one ot the older cwm like the 4.0.1.5 not the 5.x.x.x
Try reflashing Clockwork recovery by following the instructions in [url="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179386]this[/url] thread. It sounds like your recovery got screwed up or wiped out somehow. Use version 5.0.2.1. I think the version 5 issues are fixed in that one. If you still have issues try using one of the version 4.x ones.

Thanks guys I did it and got my phone and just FYI version five don't work on my tb so I will stay away from ROM manager!!!!! I still couldn't do a back up in recovery cuz it says error on restoring boot image ,once!again o beloved my SD card corrupt

Stuck on CM10 Boot animation...

Hi I have the EVO V 4g, I rooted it, flashed TWRP 2.2 and when I flash CM9 or CM10 it gets installed and then when it boots I get stuck on the loading screen animation. It keeps spinning and nothing happens.
I can flash my stock rom without any trouble but for some reason I can't get anything else to work.
What gives?!
BTW I tried using Goo Manager too and I'm having the same problem.
Thank you for your time!
You need s-off to flash the kernel, or flash it with fastboot.
sudo passwd root

Well you need to be S-OFF. Also for Evo V 4G I think you need to be on 1.04 Hboot http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1703070 see the "HTC EVO V users" section.
Man this is getting out of hand. So many things to do. I'm kinda scared to s off and downgrade. I thought you only needed to root... HTC...

I have the same phone as you.
A hour after I bought the phone, I was s-off, flashing all sorts of hboots, flashing different firmware, installing different kernels, flashing roms... You are not stuck with what you have lol.
I ran jb for a couple days. No camera was a deal breaker.
sudo passwd root
And then there's that there's not even a decent jelly bean Rom. Oh well I guess I'll just wait a little bit. No camera or no wifi or no sound. Another thing is that I've never done this before this is the first time I've rooted a phone and I am the kind of scared to proceed. Linux is a bit over my head and to be honest all this flashing ROM s fast booting was a bit overwhelming... And to think that in order to downgrade your hboot you have to technically brick your phone.
Not to mention I saw this guy on YouTube showing how he was running cm nine with anthrax kernel and how it was so great and fast made me want to do that too. He said it took him over a month to do all that...
I'll stop...

You could get everything done within a few hours... if you're on 1.40 or 1.50 you don't have to brick to downgrade. Just S-OFF and then flash the older hboot.
CM9 is pretty stable and has everything working except 3D. CM10 is pretty stable, just doesn't have camera among other bugs.
I'm on hboot 1.57. Do I have to brick that or is it the same as 1.50?

I said hardest part was I'm getting that wire thing for the S OFF. And finishing up with those commands that was really confusing. I'm the only thing I couldnt manage to do is to get my PRL update which is a bummer but what can you do.
BTW I'm running Gangnam CM 10. The ROM is amazing. Everything works except for the camera but I'm sure they'll add that pretty soon. Too bad I can't post in those forums heh.
Thanks again.

If you're s-on, flash the kernel of the rom via fastboot and you'll be fine.
Put the boot.img from the rom.zip in your adb folder.
type in cmd (when phone is in fastboot usb (bootloader > fastboot)):
fastboot flash boot boot.img
exg. fastboot flash boot c:\Users\yourname\boot.img
(my adb folder is in my user directory)
I already spent my whole Friday night doing the s-off. Its done lol. Thanks tho

Rom Toolbox working/not working

Finally broke down and bought this app. Price tag is a little high considering you can get all the separate applications free, but not all under one roof. But that brings me to my question.
Have you or anyone else you heard of had issues with any of the programs in rom toolbox? Ad blocker has been a little inconsistent for me. Know he has been working on it though.
Does the boot screen changer work? Had any issues with font changer? Just want to know before I run into the same thing. Some of it is a little dangerous to run without being optimized for the phone. Especially the EVO LTE.
Any info would be appreciated. Please share any positive / negative effects you've had. Thanks!
It all works for me.. Some things such as the status bar icon installer might look a little goofy on Sense ROMs(I'm on cyanogemmod so I haven't tried it) but everything else should work. Its all mostly fundamental android tools that should work on any phone, EVO, GS3, or otherwise.

Another question unrelated to rom toolbox. In titanium backup pro u are supposed to be able to restore all apps & data at once. I've looked in settings and preferences but can't find it. Does it come up when u are restoring?
Pretty much the only reason I bought it was for the one click restore.

Which ROM are you running? I haven't tried it on a Sense ROM so I can't say for sure but that's all I can think of that might interfere with it. The tool basically just takes the animation and puts it into the right folder in the root of your phone.
I know on my old Hero it was stored a little different on some ROMs so that some boot animations with sounds and stuff caused issues.
Point is, its probably ROM based, not hboot related.
Edit: If you check the boot animation installer settings you can change the target of where its installing the animation. If you can find out where its installed on your ROM there's no reason for it not to work as long as you're rooted.
Edit#2: If on a sense ROM change the destination to /system/customize/resource/
And then change from bootanimation.zip to *scratch that, read post below for the right .zip name*
No guarantees it'll work but it looks like that's where its stored on a Stock w Goodies ROM I have on my SD card. I took the bootanimation from it and installed it on my paranoid android ROM and it worked so it should work the other way around.

Boot animations just require root, and you have to tell rom toolbox the path/filename of the boot animation zip that the rom is looking for.
For sense-based roms on evo lte, that is
/system/customize/resource/SPC_bootanimation.zip
That filename is actually mutable. It's defined in /system/customize/CID/default.xml
So go into rom toolbox, boot animations. Then hit menu, Install Locations.
Common locations: "HTC EVO 4G"
That loads the other two settings with defaults that are closest to correct. Directory is correct, and you only have to modify the filename slightly from bootanimation.zip to SPC_bootanimation.zip
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Basically, rom toolbox could read the correct values right out of default.xml. I don't know why it doesn't. Maybe the path/name of default.xml itself isn't consistent on all devices or maybe he just didn't think of it yet.
