Hey guys.... Thanks to a member here at XDA, Krylon360, I have gotten my hands on the unreleased 2.2.1 Espresso OTA and so as usual my first stop in is to provide the new radio update while I sort the patches out and get you guys a stock rooted ROM... So without further chit chat as I got some work ahead of me, heres the new radio update taking baseband to 7.15.35.16.... Havent noticed much change although I have also tested nothing speedwise tbh so I will let you all report back on these things.... Grab the radio update here or here and let me know of any improvements or even negative effects it has caused with data, battery life, wifi, etc.... A CR_Mod stock., rooted OTA will follow shortly and you guys can get your much awaited 2.2.1 Froyo Espresso on early since TMO wants to lag..... Have fun... CR
PS: I did this with an update script rather than an updater script as it was easiest in windows which Im on for the moment... I will convert to an updater script in a little while. What does this mean you ask? It means any of you who have flashed the unsupported as of yet CWM 3.0+ rec images that are floating around will not be able to flash the radio. To fix this, use rom manager to reflash the current supported CWM rec, flash the radio, and if you must, reflash the CWM 3.0+ rec in fastboot.
Flashing!

thank you, flashing now
just flashed over your 2.1 espresso rom and everythings running smoothly, will try speed tests now!!!
I've flashed it, but I'll have to wait till l8r to test it. Sounds like a nice update. Thanks!
Any way you can release the unrooted ota while we wait for it to be rooted?
Holy cow, wasn't expecting this, downloading here in a sec and then flashing!
EDIT: I think I may have experienced a double in downloading speed... But I could just be thinking that's whats going on.
Got to love when ChiefzReloaded popup with a new thread always a something good about to happen or have happen. Will steal my gf phone when she gets back home and try it out.
P.S. only thing i really want from that rom is the call over wifi app
Enjoy guys. I'll keep CR updated if I find anything new.
I was running cm7 but I flashed crmod instead then radio and speeds are soo noticably faster this is awsome

Chiefz, thanks for the radio dump. I flashed via fastboot. Haven't noticed *any* changes whatsoever, though... Not that surprising.
I am, however, most interested in the actual contents of the froyo OTA. Any chance you could put the whole zip up for download before you root it and defang it?
It wont flash on a non rooted phone... It does a version check and it looks for a version we don't even have so it fails.... Im looking for the esprimg that may help the process... Not sure if this is gonna be as easy as last time... CR

Well, at least in *my* case, I only want the zip so I can take it apart and see if I can appropriate the wifi calling bits for CM7. But if you don't want to release it just yet I understand. Thanks for providing the radio at least.
Im not sure what is goin on..i flashed the new radio in recovery..then after it rebooted it still shows 7.09.35.10 as my radio..but i also noticed last night after i flashed build 8 of cm7 it still shows in the phone info as build 7.. am i doin something wrong or is it a bug.

Oh true, mine says that to. I used the mediafire link to download it. Installed in Clockwork recovery. I'm on CM6.1.1
same thing happen to me @ first. I flashed through fastboot using the radio.img... and it worked like a charm...
Second on the raw files in a zip that you have if you can
I flashed this radio so far so good, thank you !!
Will this radio work on ArayrayMod Revamped if so I'll absolutely be flashing asap.
Currently running CM9 on my Photon, would like to go back to stock, have searched and havent really found to much.
Is there a guide for the simple minded among us (namely me) to go back to stock???
I have a feeling it's really simple and I am gonna feel silly for asking....heh
Boot into recovery,
hard reset X3
Reboot into rsd mode
Sbf back to stock
(you will have t to re root and unlock if you choose to after)

It was pretty nice, but not all it's cracked up to be. A few things didnt work.
But the most annoying thing was it didnt seem to know it was on Sprint network.
It was nice, and I dont wanna crap on the hard work put into it..
It's acting kind of flakey, I wonder if re-flashing it would help, I might try that first then maybe go back to stock.....
Ive had very few issues with CM9 and ive followed it from the beginning Alpha stages.. Try a different version if you have issues. To each his own for sure some people will like others won't. I personally cant be taken away from it. Ive had VERY few network issues where it wouldn't connect and the not working items list gets smaller each day, its basically down to video camera in stock app and few other minor things. As for going back to stock if you need super detail check out QBKing77 on youtube, he has a video of exactly what to do.
I am currently running beta-0.1.0-2d-cm-9.0.0-RC0-Sunfire-KANG-signed, maybe I should just upgrade to beta-0.5.0-cm-9.0.0-RC0-sunfire-UNOFFICIAL-signed. If I do that, I pretty much follow the directions I did to flash the original correct??
Basically from about 3 minutes in on QB's tut video??

When coming from previous cm9 build just wipe system in mounts and storage and flash thr newer build onto it via clockworkmod recovery.
Sent not from your device!
I will give that a try, I tried 3 or 4 times yesterday but it would get stuck on the M duel core screen.
Restored the back up I had and it was ok then.
EDIT:
No love yet again, I am using CWM 5.0.2.7.
It stops at the M duel core tech screen and just sits there.
Did you flash twice? If you don't, it bootloops.

Do not wipe system when coming from a previous build. Wipe caches and fix permissions after you flash twice.

The way i got that rom to work on my photon was to run the original rom, then go back and flash the most recent version, that worked perfectly for me!
I will give that a whirl after after work, thanks....
Finally, got it going, further reading figured out to flash the rom twice in a row, currently running 0.5.0, had to flash the CDMA fix to get the signal, running great, much smoother then the 0.1.0......
Thanks for all the help guys.....

I have problems flashing Roms I dont know what could be the reason. Couple days ago my SD card died I bought a new one I tried to flash the new version of Tweaked I forgot to made a back up and for some reason my phone will get stuck on the "Galaxy note 2" screen or return to the TWRP menu I tried to flash at least 5 different roms and same results the only one It was able to boot was Clean rom 3.1. I updated TWRP to the latest version and still having the same issues if any one can tell me what to do I will appreciate it

You do know first boots take a while right? You should wait up to or at least 10 minutes for the first boot of a rom.

I'm actually having a similar, if more limited, problem. I recently tried flashing P.A.C. rom onto my Note 2, but it would just hang on the galaxy note 2 screen. I left it for more than 10 minutes without change. However, after that I tried flashing Cyanogen; which worked just fine.
I'd greatly appreciate any tips on how to figure out what's going wrong.

And now it works.
So, I seem to actually have things working now and I figured I should give a quick update.
Before, I was using a nightly of P.A.C. rom, because I didn't see anything more stable at the time. Now I've switched to a milestone rom and it boots just fine. At this point, I think I'd pin the blame on a glitch the rom I was trying to flash; given the fact that Cyanogen and the current iteration work fine

I had been keeping an eye on his i9100 thread and the jist was to flash the latest CM nightly to have the newest recovery then reboot recovery and flash Waylands CM11 like normal.
Thanks Wayland, I am glad you have decided to help us out as well!
Also I just tested using the steps from the i9100 thread and still just get the CM boot logo. Nothing I did could get past it. I could however restore a Nandroid I had just made so no harm done.
Kind Regards,

I tried my best to get my phone to spit out a logcat because my phone also would not boot, it just sat at the splash screen. But, alas, I could not figure out how to get my device to not show offline. I know how to do it when Android is running, but not like that. BUTTTT, if someone can explain to me how to make the phone go "online" for adb during boot, I can pull a logcat, and would be more than grateful to do so, because im dying to try KitKat. Keep up the good work!
fastboot?
Is there no way to put the phone into fast boot mode and get a logcat that way? Would give it a try myself but my comp is on the fritz.

This might be a long shot, but I think it requires you to have CWM 6.0.4.3 and higher to install correctly. You might double check your current version.
My CWM version was 6.0.4.5 and it doesnt boot. So theres may be a problem that only a logcat could show..

Wayland said he would be taking another look at CM11 and our phone tomorrow. Just so you guys know.
Read on the i9100 forum before that someone who couldn't it to boot the normal way got it to work by just flashing CWM and not CM10.2. Tried that and no luck here.

Could it be an incompatible kernel issue? I know on the lg optimus zip and galaxy precedent (both straight talk phones with dev support from another forum) we had to enable sd-ext before cm would work. Not sure if that's the case here or not just a suggestion.
Wish I had internet to set up my build environment.
I have been watching the i9100 thread and have e been trying everything that has worked there but to no avail. I have been wanting to compile cm11 but have not had the time to do so. Wayland, most likely, will need to make some minor change but since he does not own our phone so we will need to be patient. I told him I would volunteer to test if need be.

If needed I have a spare s2 I can use for dev purposes however I'm not on the i777 but the s959g(straight talk) Vasily the same but minor software differences. I can be reached at [email protected] a lot easier then I can on this thread if y'all need any assistance.
I have been working on 4.4 for the i777 and getting CM11 to work right, I found that some people had to do ANOTHER Wipe data/factory reset AFTER flashing the rom and gapps. This is what has to be done on the CM11 rom I ported to the i777 to make it work. Just thought I would share.
Would you happen to know what is not working on this ROM? Any bugs you have found? Thanks.

Doesn't work. Not only that but now I can't go back to cm 10.2 after flashing this. I'd advise everyone to stay away from this port until its 100℅ bootable. If you try to go back you end up with status 7 error.

I have followed carefully (twice) the instal Tut's for both CM 9 and CM 10.1 however I have a screen problem and hang on start up.
When turning on the Atrix 4G (MB860) it seems to start Ok saying Unlocked and the Red M logo shows in the middle, as normal.
Then suddenly the screen seems to split into segments so there are 2 Unlocked texts at the top and an M in the middle at he very bottom, and two half M's either side. The phone hangs at that point.
Any ideas please ?
thanks

Thanks for that feedback. I tried again but it is still doing the same thing. I even went for a walk around the block to give it time
do you had full wipe?
Correct yes.
Via the Advanced section I did a Cache, Dalvik, System etc etc.
Then I installed the CM-9 same hanging situation.
Full wipe again via all items, then I tried 10.1 same hanging situation.
I have Unlocked the phone, and I did also Root the phone, but what if the Root didn't work, would it hang like this or do something different. I guess what I am asking is, can I check the root worked, or can I assume it worked if the install gets this far anyway ?
thanks

First off, you should really update that recovery. 4.x recoveries have been long since retired. We're now on 5.0.2.x up to 6.0.4.4
Second, what exact rom are you using (meaning state the file name of the rom package you are using)?

CM10-10.2 is JB. CM11 is KK. Why you would flash KK gapps onto a JB build is extremely confusing.
That build is using the 3.1.10 kernel. To see that, go to options>about phone.
Boot logo and charging meter (as mentioned in my previous post) are related in terms of the kernel. Fix one, get a glitchy image on the screen for the other. Normal, and already discussed across all 3.1.10 kernel based roms.

..."Why you would flash KK gapps onto a JB build is extremely confusing."... If you're confused then imagine how I feel Just kidding.
I am absolutely new to all this so apologies for my lack of familiarity. I'm flying by the seat of my pants here. I'm trying to catch on as I read posts around the place.
So as I read your feedback I should ;
a) upgrade the Recovery to 5.x or 6.x (not sure where to find these)
b) locate CM10-10.2 JB or CM 11 KK and use the appropriate gapps (JB or KK)
glitchy image doesn't worry me at all, I am just keen to get a V4.x of Android installed so I can use this phone for some other security development that needs Android 4.x, otherwise I have to splash out $150 to buy a new phone which I'm not keen on doing.
It would be nice also to have the fingerprint working on the upgraded version. I saw an addon for Beanstalk somewhere and the developer said that installing that apk would activate the finger scanner. That said, I don't really have much of an idea what I am talking about, just what I have gleaned reading postings. I am 59 years old and with a bunch of old school IT like IBM mainframes etc behind me but am new to all this upgrading of mobiles
If you could steer me to any links that would be great.
thanks

Its all good, we've all been there (being noobs i mean)
The 5.x recovery can be found by going to the general section, the thread that has may 16th in its title, and clicking a link in post #1
The 6.x recovery can be found in the new CM10.2 thread (the one not done by epinter)
This is the only Android phone with fingerprint technology (to the best of my knowledge). Most stable on 2.3.x, however it does work on 4.0.4, although its more hit or miss at that point. I've got my Atrix 4G still and i'm running AtrICS v2.0 (Nov 2012 build) with the home button fix and the latest kernel released by krystian (10 Feb (haven't checked development at the time of this post)). Fingerprint for me does work.
Beanstalk is a JB ROM, i believe based off of the old kernel (2.x). I don't recall if that one had the fp working or not.
If the 4G can't do what you need, the A2 and AHD, both which succeeded the 4G, are both available for under 150 on amazon (my AHD was 134 after tax and shipping)

The 5.x recovery can be found by going to the general section, the thread that has may 16th in its title, and clicking a link in post #1
The 6.x recovery can be found in the new CM10.2 thread (the one not done by epinter)
This is the only Android phone with fingerprint technology (to the best of my knowledge). Most stable on 2.3.x, however it does work on 4.0.4, although its more hit or miss at that point. I've got my Atrix 4G still and i'm running AtrICS v2.0 (Nov 2012 build) with the home button fix and the latest kernel released by krystian (10 Feb (haven't checked development at the time of this post)). Fingerprint for me does work.

Thanks for that info. A quick question - I see one of the Recovery versions says : CWM-Recovery 6 for Galaxy ACE GT-S5830. Does that mean it is specifically for that model and I need to find one that actually refers to the Atrix 4G MB860 ?
cheers
Good News ..... It's working.
It seems the issue might have been the Recovery app / version. After updating that to 5.x and reinstalling the OS it ran like a dream.
I started with AtrICS v2.0 as you indicated and that worked just fone although for some reason WiFi was not being detected.
I then reformatted etc and installed cm-10.1-20131211-UNOFFICIAL-epinter-olympus and it's all looking good, including fingerprint.
Thanks again for your help, much appreciated.
cheers

Yes you did need to flash a CWM designed specifically for the A4G. AtrICS can be tricky, sometimes, but as long as you installed the main ROM, then the Vendor zip, you should get wifi. If you want to use the 3.1.10 kernel, flash the home fix zip thats in that thread, then upgrade the kernel as needed (highly recommended if you chose this option).
Glad to see you were able to upgrade, and no problem.
