Hi,
I have a g2 touch on tmobile, unlocked and using with 3 network. It currently shows as ROM version 2.73.110.26, Android 1.5.
When I try to download android apps from the "Market", it asks me to log into my gmail account. When I put in the details, it is signing in for two minutes, saying "connecting with google servers", but then the message "cant establish a reliable data connection to the server" comes up. I was trying to connect with wifi. I can connect with a browser no problem. I also cleared the google apps in Manage Applicaions.
Can someone please help. Am I doing somethinhg wrong.
Thank you.
Think it's a similar problem to what i have with mine.I have a T-Mobile handset running an Orange sim,I can't get a data connection as well.I've had similar problems in the past with an Orange handset running other sims,but solved it everytime after i had flashed a new ROM on the phone.All my previous handsets were running Win Mobile,and it was easy to do,but this runs Android and it seems alot more confusing and complicated.
I'd guess flashing a new ROM would do the trick,but can't help you as i'm stuck trying to flash
myself.
Damned reply vanished into the ether!!! @#?! So anyhoo.... here's how you flash.... its easy.
First you root your phone. Takes an hour at the most. You're sort of not embracing android if you havnt rooted yet... but anyway, now that you have a newly rooted hero you look for a rom to use (I swap between aHero and EzHero).
Once found you download your .zip file and place it into the root of your sd card (not in any folders).
Start your phone in recovery using the power and home keys simultaneously and select 'flash zip from sd card' and select the file you want to flash. Then press home to confirm and then let it load. Then restart. Easy as pie.... mmmmm.... pie....
Considering I'm only 15 this is a relatively easy process for anyone... mind you I am working on dual boot with winmob so.... meh... try it. Its so easy that I change my rom about twice a week.
Hope my drivle was of some use to you. Any questions pm me somehow and i'll get back to you asap.

CONTRADUDE PRESENTS
CleverNameHere Rom Release 2 Beta 3
This rom is discontinued as I have moved on to the Nexus 7. God Bless, everyone!
This ROM is based off of the Evo View 4G's 3rd OTA (Honeycomb update) and was created with DSIXDA's rom kitchen. Special thanks to pardonmyfreedom for figuring out the view's mount points, Globatron for S-off, lovethyevo for great advice and assistance with kernel building and Zepplinrox for V6 SuperCharger
Features
Rooted
Busybox
Deodexed
Zipaligned on boot
Ad Free Hosts file added
Bash shell & nano installed along with sysro/sysrw scripts
Added custom boot animation (found about 4th hand, will give credit when I can find original owner) and switched the shutdown animation to the stock HTC one
Filesystem Tweaks
V6 Supercharger setting is baked in the /data folder, 1000hp settings enabled with Nitro Lag Nullifier More information here
Removed most of the bloatware, I'd love feedback if this isn't enough though
Disabled HTC update checking
baked in Facebook & Facebook messenger, google+, google voice, ES file explorer, Titanium Backup & Mybackup Root, Onlive Client, Boat Browser, Script Manager and XDA forum browser
Enabled bluetooth headset support, haven't tested it but it saw my jawbone and paired with it.
Please help me test this rom while I'm continuing to add features as well as offer suggestions for improvements. I already have a few in mind as well, just need to continue working through them. I'm also looking for anyone who has theming experience since I'm an IT guy and not a graphics designer ;-)
Downloads
WARNING: betas wipe /data. RC1 will not and will arrive after beta 3 is debugged.
RLS 2 Beta 3 @ Multiupload
Older Releases
RLS 2 Beta 2 @ Multiupload
RLS 2 Beta 1 @ Multiupload
Screenshots
waiting on screenshots here until the rom has theming built in.
Benchmarks
Coming soon, after my vacation
Pre-Installation Instructions
Make sure your HTC Evo View 4G is S-off and has a recovery installed, the best way to do that is to follow this guide by Globatron for S-off Gingerbread. After you have completed that process follow this guide to bring yourself to Honeycomb. You must upgrade to Honeycomb in this way to be able to use my Rom. Finally, You also need to have an SD Card in your view in order to be able to flash things through ClockworkMod.
Installation Instructions
The betas of this ROM will wipe data, so I recommend backing up important information in MyBackup Root and Titanium Backup. The Full Releases (RLS 1, RLS 2, etc.) and Release Candidates (RC1, Etc.) will not wipe data, but if you're coming from stock or just want to make sure your devices is clean, do a factory reset from within clockworkmod recovery between steps 3 and 4 of the guide below.
Copy the Rom .zip file to the base of your SD Card, not the internal storage of your View
Boot into your tablet's bootloader by holding volume down & power while unit is powered off
select recovery by using the volume arrows and hit power to select
you should now be looking at a black screen with blue text, if not make sure you followed the S-off guide. using the volume keys to navigate and power button to select, select install zip from sd card using power
select choose zip from sdcard
select the clevernamehere .zip file on your sdcard
navigate down to the option that says 'Yes - Install clevernamehere*.zip' where * is the name of the version of the rom (eg. beta1)
Rom will now install and run it's course. The script will be more verbose then it is now by the final version
select the +++++Go Back+++++ option
now select reboot system now and the view will reboot. this will take a while, just like it did when you took it out of the box.
Rom is now installed and working! let me know if you find any bugs or have feature requests.
Removing all user data before installing a new rom (Factory Data Reset)
Boot into your tablet's bootloader by holding volume down & power while unit is powered off
select recovery by using the volume arrows and hit power to select
you should now be looking at a black screen with blue text, if not make sure you followed the S-off guide. using the volume keys to navigate and power button to select, select wipe data/factory reset.
navigate down to the option that says 'Yes -- delete all user data' and select it. This will wipe ALL of your data and the data will be unrecoverable after this unless you have backed it up using Titanium Backup and Mybackup Root.
device will now wipe itself and take you back to the main clockworkmod menu. continue on from step 4 of the above guide to flash the rom if you already have the .zip on your device.
Uninstallation Instructions (going back to stock)
waiting for an RUU for now. Strongly recommend NANDROIDing your stock rooted image before flashing regardless.
otherwise use this tool to return to stock or gingerbread. works well (I've tested it once) and it was created in conjunction with globatron

Looking fwd to it

Honestly, its not a big deal if you just drop it from /system completely. Its not that hard to get into the market.
I loved your GB rom and I am looking forward to this one. I was getting ready to do a data wipe then I saw your post so it saves me from doing an extra one. I will just for your rom.
cool cant wait for this one.
Thanks for the update. Sorry to hear you have to work today.
*this space for rent*
Can't wait to see the rom, contra.

This post will shortly contain information and links to my honeycomb ROM. Took too long to finish alpha testing it before work today. I'll have a beta 1 posted hopefully on lunch today, but it's pretty rough. deodexed/zipalign/init.d scripts/root basically. it seems to hesitate less to me, but it could be placebo ;-). it's uploading to multiupload now, but will take longer than I have left to complete.

so is the is a rooted version of Honeycomb ?? that can be flashed without using the Fastboot method ??
if you are referring to my rom, yes it can be flashed normally in clockworkmod recovery but the betas of my rom always wipe data when they are flashed. backup your data in tibu and mybackup first.
Just found out the free xda app works properly on honeycomb. Going to bake it in next release.
Contradude,
Any extra features you implemented or plan to implement?
I tell you right now, the most digusting (for me ) in HC is "no more hardware buttons".
New software-only buttons take away precious screen space on 7" and make watching full screen video impossible.
Dell Streak has a patch to turn hardware buttons on and off. Maybe we can get it on the View as well.
My dream feature would be USB host.
Thanks.
I am staying away from HC for now.
Actually MX Video goes full screen and the software buttons are hidden... Great program!
So if I have read everything correctly if we do this we can't get back to GB at the moment. Is that correct.

That's good to know.
However, Sling, Vulkano and Daroon (the only player for the DVDs) can not do it.
DLing now, will test and post quadrant score, and test all radios (4G too), and everything else.
@contra I posted which bloatware apps I removed with no issue here
Also, looking forward to being able to auto-hide the notification bar and re-enable the HW buttons.
There is an app called Honeybar that hides the notification bar but it's a paid app $1, also there is one called Hidebar I tried, but in order to get the notification bar back up you're supposed to touch the screen in certain parts and no matter where I touched it didn't bring the bar back up so I don't think it's compatible with our tablet just yet. Oh and that last one is free btw. I'll try to find it, post a link, and contact the developer to add support for the View/Flyer.
Thats what I thought. I will wait. Love the name by the way "maine coon". I have a black maine coon cat asleep in my lap as I type this. Thanks for the quick reply.
Will be peeping out, I just got back home from a trip nicely down..
I will follow up with Lee regarding the HC hardkeys mod that we got connected with TheManii..
Hey guys I'm pretty new here and i wanted to get some feedback, did not find any similar topics around.
I want to root my NT 16gb but i see a lot of different methods and ways to perform it, whats the best way of going?
CM9 or CM7?
Easiest method to do it?
i got a 16gb microSD also!
Any opinions?
THANK YOU!
Rooting and applying a custom rom like cm7 or cm9 do not necessarily go together, an unfortunate assumption many new android users make. The former allows you root access and thus you can do things with the device you otherwise would not have been able to do. Flashing a custom rom will literally change the operating system entirely. Both are also completely reversible. So the question is, what do you want? Root access or a new OS entirely (note that custom roms almost always have root access).

I'm fairly new at this also, got my 16G NT (1.4.1) a couple days ago, and I'll tell you what I did. At first, I rooted it because I wanted (at least) access to the Kindle reader, but the google market/play is not available so B&N could control it. Rooting AND installing google apps (aka gapps) give you the market and more. From there you can install the go launcher and have a pretty nice overlay that looks ICS-like. Here's what I used and it seemed to go pretty smooth:
Part 1:
This thread by the developer Indirect shows how to do the root along with gaaps:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1466583
And here is an invaluable video from albertwertz that goes along with it. This helped me get the confidence to do it:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I403bagL9rw
He has an update to this show at the beginning of the video, but I did not use that.
The secret sauce is in making a bootable SD card with both the image that gives you CWM (clockworks mod), which is basically a loader that allow you to then load the .zip file which contains the root and gapps files.
After I went through the process, nothing seemed to have changed at all on the NT, but after some head scratching I realized that gapps is the key and it had in fact been loaded. So hit the home button and then search and type in market. Voila, the google market is now there and you can download anything that is compatible with the NT (like kindle and the go launcher).
Part 2.
The go launcher is great, but everytime I hit home, I had to navigate to the go launcher and launch the nicer ics-like skin, so I decided to go for CM9. I'm not at all disappointed that I did. Netflix does not work, but seemingly everything else does and does nicely. Here's how:
Basically, you just need to get the CM9.003 file, and "flash" that just as you flashed the root and google apps zip. I'm sure you have figured out by now that flashing just means loading the new program into "flash" memory, which is just a read/write memory that is non-volatile. (does not erase at power down).
What I wound up up doing is placing the CM9 zip file on a separate SD card, then used the one I originally used for rooting to get into the CWM recovery program. Once there, pop it out and insert the CM9 zip and run that one from CWM. Reboot and you're running Android 4.0.4.
Here's the link for the CM9 install, courtesy of developer chrmhoffmann:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1534192
Here's a link to the CM9 zip:
http://goo.im/devs/chrmhoffmann/cm9/update-cm9-acclaim-alpha0.03-fullofbugs.zip
One more thing: You actually should put two zips on that 2nd SD, the 2nd one being google apps (aka gapps), as for some reason it is not included in the CM9 zip as it was in step 1. Here's the link to that file:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Latest_Version/Google_Apps
It's the app for CM9, and just in case, here's the download link:
http://cmw.22aaf3.com/gapps/gapps-ics-20120317-signed.zip
So now you have 2 zips on the 2nd SD card. Run them both, first the CM9 zip and then the gapps zip, reboot.
Sorry that's so long, but that's what I did and it worked out well for me once I figured it out...
---------- Post added at 04:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:07 PM ----------
One more thing. When you get into the CWM recovery program (the one you'll see when you boot from the 1st SD card, don't forget to run a backup of the original ROM, IE the factory version in case you want to go back.
I'm not an expert on the backup and recover process, and there apparently other ways to restore to the original NT 1.4.0 or 1.4.1, but I would do that anyway...
I wanted to say "very good" ! . and a note that i think should be added... is the importance of wiping the dalvik and the data cache within the flash process. . lots of people get clobbered by this ommission.

Allow me to explain. Gapps, or google apps are a seperate package of apps created by google. They are not apps that are included with "pure" Android and thus Google does not want them included with roms for whatever legal reasons. They were included in the step 1 you gave because that is simply rooting. Rooting and throwing apps onto a rom like the stock version is not flashing a custom ROM. In fact its no different than if a developer were to release a custom rom that didnt have root access, but someone wrote a script that gave you root access and installed those google apps.
tl;dr gapps are legally required to be a separate package from custom roms.

So i rooted my Blu Energy X Plus, and i decided to get rid of some blotware using some cool rooted apps. and i deleted download manager, (i thought it was blotware for some reason) and i deleted the stock launcher, because i was using nova launcher.
a little time later i realise that i can't download any apps. i soon figure out it's becuase i deleted the download manager. i try desperately to find a place to get it back, but nothing.
so i figure, i would just factory reset! i had just gotten the phone that day so what is the harm? well when it was finished i had no launcher, and still no download manager. it just says "android UI had stopped working" or something like that.
the only way i can get it to boot up, is if i choose the option: "wipe"data/factory reset" in the recovery menu.
I Have Tried to "Install Update From ADB" using this tutroil: digitaltrends com/mobile/how-to-install-the-android-m-developer-preview-on-your-nexus-device/2/

I Don't Know Which one is the correct one. i have tried to install both links on the first one, but my phone just says instalation aborted when i start it.
I Installed the drivers in the first link there as well^
Well i can boot up my phone and turn on debugging, and stuff, but i dont have a launcher or download manager. i can launch the built in apps (by going to apps in the settings) like google, and chrome, but i still can't download anything.
My PC Is Running Windows 7 64 Bit, and the phone is running Android 5.0 With a Skin that Blu Put on. (IDK What It's Called)
can anyone help? am i not using an official ROM for my phone? Any Help Would Be Amazing.

Isn't there a way to re-install the download manager and stock launcher through adb? I'm not sure where you can find the apk's for said applications (perhaps you could ask a user with the same stock device to send them to you?)
It's easy to extract the apk of the download manager on a stock device and then send it over through adb. Checkout this tut: hxxp://www wikihow com/Extract-APK-File-of-Any-App-on-Your-Android-Phone
Then you could use:
Code:
adb pull path-to-my.apk
Or some other method to send the apk file to your pc...
If you can you could simply install it on the other broken device with
Code:
adb install path-to-my.apk
You would have to install adb on your windows 7 machine (which is included in android software development kit. I've just installed AndroidStudio to do this for me.) and enable adb on your phone. Here is a reference: hxxp://developer android com/tools/help/adb html
Change xx into tt and add dots instead of spacebars, I'm a new user too...
Or you could transfer the file to your device some other way and use a file explorer to find it, click on it and let the phone install it itself without the use of adb... I'm sure a stock device comes with the capability of installing apk files through the UI.
That worked to install nova launcher. but i still need my download manager. any idea of where to find it? or is there any alternatives?

Like I said, find someone with the same stock device and let them extract the apk, send it to your computer and then install the apk through adb on your broken phone.
EDIT: check out my edits, I made a lot of them without showing
EDIT: you might be able to request xda to create a forum for blu energy x plus. They have a lot of different phone model forums but not one for blu energy x plus yet. If they will you could start a thread there to ask if anyone could send you the apk.
You might wanna checkout this thread for that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2335502
K Thanks! i am able to use my phone now, it's just a bit of a hassle to install apps from an APK by trasfering them from my tablet
i'll be looking for someonw with the same phone as me, and i'll probably be posting somewhere if anyone has this phone. or get a forum request for it. thanks for all your help! i hit the thanks button on both your replies!

Well you can see from your last post you would use E030U from needarom. I have V11 and V14, If you would make a backup of your system, boot.img, recovery.img and upload them that would be great, I could add V9 to my twrp recovery and build flashable rom for it.
You can get all the files you need from the needarom system.

Once you do this and install my twrp recovery ported to your V9, you can install my backup V11, or test a custom rom, I am porting, they are still betas but work well enough.
The current rom I ported it this one.

Just now got it booted up.
OK i will do all of that. i am a bit busy and my upload speed is quite slow, so it may be a day or two, but i'll get the backup to you.

Here's my Backup! https://mega.nz/#!XcIQWDQQ!NY2s-w18r1otbH-MVPzYY9KPpD3VTegOruxXJUz3sxc
Click download through your browser.
READ CAREFULLY
Ok people are having issues with the original thread which can be found HERE the thread is just so cluttered, and instead of it being cleaned I'll just make a new one for people with the correct information so its not as cluttered. I have been running this rom now for little over 4 days no issues following the help of JRunRun and njdan30 ( So give them thanks )
I can confirm SMS/MMS/BT/GPS all work with no issues ( or with Fixes )
This is JRunRun's installation information that allows the ROM to work flawlessly and worked for me with minor tweaks ( I always try the path of least resistance first before taking the hard way )
TWRP 2.8.7.0 seems to work without issues.
EASY WAY ( TRY FIRST BEFORE YOU TRY THE MANUAL MANIPULATION OF FILES )
1. downloaded - ROM 3.3 DarkLord S7E APEK
2. downloaded - SLIM_APNs SLIM_APNs
3. downloaded - SU SuperSU 2.74
4. placed ROM and APN.zip and Supersu on my external sdcard
5. booted recovery (twrp 2.7.8.0), (I used 3.0.2 )
6. WIPE - Dalivk/Cache/System/Data (Then for good measure I factory reset)
7. Install -- loaded flashable zips from external sd to install
a. ROM 3.3 --> add more zips
b. Slim APN zip
c. Supersu --> started the flash
8. Flashed ROM --> chose sprint phone version, chose "SPR" as my csc in Aroma, DID NOT reboot on finish ( This is where people may be getting confused..)
Select SPRINT MODEL N9xxx then select SPR as the Sales Code ALSO there is another option that is showed here that DID give me issues there is 3 of them. 2 of them are WIPE options the 3rd is NO WIPE keep settings and app data I choose the 3rd option cause I noticed when I tried the first 2 my SMS would not work, and my WIFI would constantly diconnect
9. Allowed twrp to finish installing flashable apn and supersu zips
10. wiped cache/dalvik, reboot to system (10-20 min reboot).
8. Did not restore anything on system setup. Entered wi-fi info but turned it off afterwards. ( I just skipped this all together until the phone was completely ready to go )
Once loaded you will pick your language, and a option will show up wanting you to consent to sending usage data, uncheck mark that and continue setup
11. Loaded new kernel -- darkera 1.9 lte vzw (doubt this step is necessary but easy to find with a google search samsungvn) ( If you need the kernel link you can ask for it here and we will send it too you in a PM ) ( I am running the SPRINT kernel which seems to be very stable )

MANUAL FIX FOR SMS/MMS
1. Backed up stock OF1 apns-conf.xml to computer
2. downloaded - ROM 3.3 DarkLord S7E APEK
downloaded - SLIM_APNs SLIM_APNs
downloaded - SU SuperSU 2.74
3. Replaced apns-conf.xml file in SLIM_APNs.zip with the stock apns-conf.xml file saved in step 1, rezipped and saved with new zip name "stock_APNs_modded.zip" Some people are just flashing the slim apn without adjusting it and having succes.
4. placed ROM and APN.zip and Supersu on my external sdcard
5. booted recovery (twrp 2.7.8.0)
6. WIPE - Dalivk/Cache/System/Data [/COLOR] (Then for good measure I factory reset)
7. Install -- loaded flashable zips from external sd to install
a. ROM 3.3 --> add more zips
b. modded Slim APN zip
c. Supersu --> started the flash
5. Flashed ROM --> chose sprint phone version, chose "SPR" as my csc in Aroma DID NOT reboot on finish ( This is where people may be getting confused..)

Once loaded you will pick your language, and a option will show up wanting you to consent to sending usage data, uncheck mark that and continue setup
9. change /efs/imei/mps_code to "vzw" via ES File app <-- vzw must be lower case
10. build prop changes:
Code:
ro.product.name “cm_hltevzw”
ro.product.device “hltevzw”
telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice="1"
ro.telephony.default_network="8"
Added the following lines after the ro.telephony.default_network line:
Code:
ro.cdma.home.operator.numeric=311480
ro.cdma.home.operator.alpha="Verizon Wireless”
ro.cdma.homesystem=64, 65, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83
gsm.sim.operator.numeric=311480
gsm.operator.numeric=311480
gsm.sim.operator.alpha=Verizon
gsm.operator.alpha=Verizon
ro.net.apnwhitelist=fota,ims,supl,verizon,cbs,mms
ro.net.apnroamingwhitelist=ims
ro.net.apnpolicywhitelist=fota,ims,verizon,verizon 800
ro.net.apnroamingblacklist=fota,verizon800
11. used Galaxy Tools to make sure mps_code and sales_code is set to "vzw"
12. Loaded new kernel -- darkera 1.9 lte vzw (doubt this step is necessary but easy to find with a google search samsungvn) ( If you need the kernel link you can ask for it here and we will send it too you in a PM ) ( I am running the SPRINT kernel which seems to be very stable )
Again thanks to JRunRun and njdan30 for all the helpful information and always trying to give helping hand to those that need it! and those that want to learn!! :highfive::highfive:

It looks like it was either deleted or possibly moved I will try and upload the files
Is it a necessity to be on OF1? Im still on NC4. Just curious.

Honestly I do not have a answer to that, since I was already OF1 when I unlocked the bootloader. You can always try and let people know here, I was not the creator of this ROM I was just making a new thread for people who were having issues, due to the original thread being so cluttered with 5 billion different, ways to make it work..
As far as the files go I am currently uploading to google drive to share. I should have everything ready in a few more hours, and will post links
Links fixed at the moment, looking for other hosts for mirrors

In loading this rom everything will change but the modem. I'm still using OF1 modem for example and have a totally functioning rom. That being said, yes I would upgrade and flash a new OF1 rom clean before doing the install. This rom takes quite a bit too get working but when you get use to it, it's no big deal. I wish folks good luck on following the instructions. They did not include any apn settings which I needed to get it going but what do I know.
Hello I am a bit confused with the rom 3.3 ---> add more zips did you mean you installed the rom then installed slim zip then you reinstalled the rom again?

Add Zips means in TWRP you select the ROM, then select ADD more ZIPS which in turn you add 3.3 SLIM_APN, and SU then flash..
and no I didn't modify anything, my install method is highlighted in RED.
Thanks will definitely try it later

Then you probably didn't uncheck mark the, "send data" option while setting up your phone... and if you used my way in red ( I didn't have to use the FULL how to ) then you shouldn't have to edit the APN at all, you just flash the rom APN and SU that's all you have to do.
ONLY use the full installation if the easy way doesn't work...
The pics I just uploaded will kinda help, in TWRP. make sure you ADD all 3 files ROM - SLIM APN - SU then you start the flash
2nd pic is install of rom, you choose what is circled, I didn't get one of the next screen but you scroll down till you find the code "SPR"
Next pic again the option needed here is whats circled.
4th pic, MAKE sure you leave this ALONE don't select it, just finish out of it, and it will take you back to TWRP and the flash/install of SLIMS APN and SU will begin once those are done reboot
Can't mount extsd.
Nvm. I figured it out.

Can someone send me the kernel by PM? Thanks
i was able to get the rom up and running but noticed i am unable to access the internal sd or external sd through my phone. I am also unable to boot to twrp.
which means I cannot flash the kernel that allows access to the sd card.
I tried reinstalling twrp through odin, it was supposedly successful but just get pushed back into system when booting to recovery.
any help would be appreciated
thanks,
Edit: was able to access twrp through restart option instead of shutting off and using hardware button combo
MMS
I just got this installed and all seems working fine. Except MMS. Im sure Im just missing something. When I send an mms messgae, it fails and says invalid address entered. What gives?
could someone send me the link to the darkera 1.9 lte vzw kernel please
I made the mistake of changing the Access Point Names without copying them first. Would someone be as so kind to list the correct settings, that has everything working. Thanks
