Updating cm10 - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello I have a question about updating the cm10 nightlies. I read somewhere that to update to the newest cm10 nightly you just wipe cache and dalvik. However I tried that and my signal bars and WiFi bars don't turn blue anymore. They stay grey, which I believe means that its broken correct? Has anyone successfully updated cm10 nightly by just wiping cache and dalvik and not have data broken? Thank you

It depends really, the CM10 nightlies recently (late September-ish) went through a major partition layout change, so simply wiping cache and davlik would NOT be good enough, and it requires a full wipe. If you've been on recent nightlies with the new partition layout, then it shouldn't have done that... and I've updated nightlies quite a bit that way with no problems. I suggest backing up your apps and doing a clean wipe to the latest nightly.

I am currently running the 20121022 nightly by the way. which i believe has the new partition layout.

Yeah something probably went wrong during the flash, either try wiping cache and davlik again or just backup your apps and do a clean wipe. I wish I could help further, but I've been on AOKP lately so I'm not sure if it's a problem with the rom itself...

Hmmm strange. My market app would not work after updating. It said app not installed every time i pressed the market. So I reflashed gapps in cwm and all is well now. Thanks for your input though!

Yeah you did not mention what build you were coming from...
But i have noticed on occasion grey bars,,, I'll be able to connect... then later they will be blue again...
Re flashing the gapps is a good idea,,, again depending on what you came from...
Glad to see you are working now

[Q] Upgrading CM9 builds

I'm already running CM9 (awesome club release), which is great. I'm looking to update to the latest build 1.1.2.
Is it sufficient to wipe dalvik and then install the new zip? I could obviously wipe data as well but I'd rather not if I didn't have to.

Joker says you don't have to. It won't hurt though. After you reboot, I would power off, boot into recovery, and fix permissions. Doing that seems to correct the minor bugs that may arise.

Running seraphim and keep getting wifi errors

Hello,
First and foremost, I'm loving this rom. I'm a noob and getting my hands dirty figuring all this out.
Now with that said:
When I try to connect to my wifi network it keeps saying authentication error occurred. I have tried everything and the only thing that fixes it is restoring my backup to my stock rom.
Please help!!!!

I will say 90% of the people in here will say it is not the rom. just because theres seems to work. and i tend to agree. what have you tried to fix it? besides going back (to Stock). i have not had any issues with WiFi on Serephim yet, so i can not say what a fix would be. maybe wipe your cache's. when i had that issue on GB i had to reinstall the kernel and boom it worked. but seeing as though we do not have one yet for ICS. i would say wipe and worst case reinstall the from after a very Thurough Wiping Process.

Then if your into flashing right now, just try either the superwipe.
Or this is how i wipe.
I factory default/format usb from inside the rom.
I wipe factory/data from cwm
i wipe cache partition from cwm
i wipe delvik from cwm
then i flash "Rom" and reboot.
this leaves nothing from previous roms and or Gingerbreak roms.
try that and see if it works. if not then i am out of ideas until a kernel source is released.
Ok i will try that and see if it works...
Thank you!!!

I fixed it.... USER ERROR.. I Don't want to admit this but I was entering the wrong password and my old Rom had the password saved so I never had to enter it...

[Q] Team Perfection ICS R2 release Camera Issue

Anyone here that is on Team Perfections ICS Rom appdroid just released R2 update today which I flashed as I know many people probably did, everything seems to be fine except I have no camera anymore? when you go to your camera its just a black screen trying to see if anyone else has had this that is on this new build or not? Thanks
Nope its working good for me. Maybe wipe cache and see if that helps?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Well I figured I would try Hyfr ICS ROM from SGS3. Camera is working on it. I am a little more pro Objection just because that has been my fav rom but at this point I was just so happy to be finally running SVOICE and its working beautifully!
Will most likely switch back. I will try what you said although I ALWAYS WIPE Dalvick before ANY flash......are you talking about this cache or just the cache partition itself? Just wondering...
S-voice is working for me on RC2. I always wipe cache partition then Dalvik cache after. I do that three times in that order then flash. After I flash I fix permissions before I reboot and ive never had any problems. Hope that helps!!!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
OK Thanks for the help, I tried out OnlyOne rom for a few hours and knew it was time to come back to my Objection Rom. Doing as you said now will let you know how it goes.
Thanks
Edit: Last post I said I went back to Objections ICS rom I actually had more issues with it, dialer didnt work would FC everytime I wiped clean and cleared all caches re flashed it several times was so annoyed. Not appdroid's fault hes doing a great job plenty of people are using that R2 release without issues I just couldnt on my device. But I tried OnlyOne rom one more time and it works FLAWLESSLY now. Couldnt be happier!!
Did you use the darkside wipe or manually? I found that the darkside tool causes problems for a lot of people so I just went back to manual wipe

Bluetooth problem on cm7 stable latest

I have a Vibrant that has a KB5 modem, Glitch 1.3.1 Kernel, and CM-7 (2.3.7) stable. After a fresh install of CM7, my bluetooth won't pair (or find for that matter) any devices. I have checked with another phone and the paired to devices work fine. Everything else works great. Good mobile data , wifi, and phone reception. Just the bluetooth doesn't seem to be picking up anything. It is possible I might have restored something from another rom accidentally, but I froze what I thought might be an issue as well as was very careful (or at least I thought I was) on the restores. I also forgot to wipe cache before the install. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Dave
I'm not familiar with cm7 stable release but I would first start by doing a full wipe clean flash.

Did a full wipe, and cache clean, reinstall of cm7 and back to the kernel that comes with cm7 and the problem still exists.

Probably a dumb question but...

I am unlocked and rooted on jelly beans custom ROM version 9.If I do the ota update to version1.0 will I lose the setup I currently have with my home screen widgets etc? I just really want to make sure it doesn't change anything. Thanks for the help in advanced.

You may not if you don't wipe but you may run into problems. Dirty flashing is always a risk.
I did a "dirty" flash from Beans version 10 to version 11 yesterday (only wiped cache and dalvik cache). I did a full nandroid backup of 10 first as there can be some issues, but it worked flawlessly. All settings were saved and the total turnaround was less than 10 min. I wouldn't try that between different ROMs but upgrades to the same base seem ok.
Alright thanks guys I'm going to backup my ROM up then try dirty flashing.
