First, sorry for my English translator google.
Guys, I'm wanting to install the rom of free xperia project kit kat, only when I go to install the cwm gives error saying it is for me to install version "Pollux" whereas mine is the pollux-windy I think, to be the wifi only version.
I've tried switching recovery and always gives the same error, I have tried to install the version Pollux and gives error too, would like your help.
Thank you.

Which recoveries are you trying? I had issues with 80% of zips when I was using the dual recovery because it makes the device think it's a yuga instead of pollux_windy

I use the same dual, which I use for it to be recognized as "pollux windy"? Pass the links please.
thank you
I don't think that is the recovery itself problem, but the updater-script. It is checking if your device is the pollux, whereas yours is the pollux_windy. If it doesn't match the script, it cancels the installation to avoid problems...

Hi all,
Under stock recovery, I tried to run an update.zip, which is gapps package. I got: "E:signature verification failed. Installation aborted."
I googled and planning to do the CWM things.
But, this Philips phone (android 4.0.4, one article says it's MTK device) is rare and no ROM available out there. So I have to be careful.
Could anybody please answer:
1>. Is there any MTK version of CWM?
2>. How do I backup BEFORE installing CWM? --- in case I want to get back stock recovery.
3>. If I got the wrong CWM version, is it just can not install CWM, or I can but very dangerous?
Thanks.

I viewed some tutorials and tried Goomanager and visited TWRP site, but my device is not in twrp's list. Can I just pick a relatively new version of twrp and install?
Finally I find in this forum a thread: [PORT] [TOOL] Carliv Touch Recovery for MT657x.
I successfully flashed recovery.
Thank you, sir.
I think I didn't helped you at all. LOL no prob
Hello All. I have built the latest version of OmniROM for the e970. I pretty much tweaked the kernel and device tree from CyanogenMod to get it working. The first nightly ran today (7/9/2014). You should see a nightly around 1:00AM (Central Time) from here on out.
I'm using this as my daily driver with no issues.
Please install at your own risk as I am not responsible for damage you may cause to your own device.
Requirements
Your recovery must support Kit-Kat ROMs
TWRP 2.7.1.0 (Compiled with OmniROM 4.4.4 device tree) - This is not flashable. You must either manually load it using dd from adb or an app like Nandroid Manager in the Play Store.
http://goo.gl/hrd5uN
Mini Modular PA GApps
BaNkS GApps
If you want root, you must install is separately. You should only have to flash this the first time.
SuperSU Flashable
Downloads
http://goo.gl/rtpTVL
First installation
- Download gapps and the latest nightly build
- Reboot to recovery
- Flash the nightly build then gapps
- Root access must be installed seperately from http://download.chainfire.eu/451/SuperSU/
- WIPE DATA!!!
- Reboot and enjoy your KitKat
Known Issues
- NFC Not working
- Bluetooth Tethering not working
- GPS not working - Fixed 7/4/2014
- Fixed issue I found with the dialer. 7/8/2014
- I stopped using the vendor files from TheMuppets github as they were incomplete and pulled them directly from my phone. There is a script in the device tree to do it for those who want to build on their own.

using this ROM latest build [07/08/2014] with neighborhood hackers kernel & screen tears a lot, gonna try without it & report.
EDIT: The latest build does not have proper root access :/
I don't think OmniROM has SU built in. It can be downloaded from http://download.chainfire.eu/451/SuperSU/ and flashed in TWRP or CWM. I'll add this to the OP.

Hi Rjwil1086,
I want to know is this ROM enable OTG to connect pen drive or other external devices. As default this device is not enable.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Bharat.
It looks like there is a hack out there based on Nexus 4 code. I have not implemented such a change to the kernel, and I don't think the gproj kernel comes with it (anyone correct me if I'm wrong). Right now I'm focusing on optimization and bug fixes. Once I feel comfortable that everything is working as intended I may start modifying things.

Clean flashed the latest nightly today and found that NFC doesn't work. It doesn't turn on. Can anyone confirm ?
I think there is a file missing from the proprietary files. I'll try to fix it this weekend
Sent from my LG-E970 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Thanks. Another thing I want to point out is that this app WORD WEB DICTIONARY which I use on a regular basis gives an error of no external sd card detected. Which is weird since the sd card is present. I had the same issue on stock 4.4.2 rom that has been ported for e970. Another app that ZEDGE fails to download anything even though the WiFi is connected same behavior on the stock rom with it too.

I even tried with re download but again same problem. I also tried TWRP but no luck. CM11 nightly is installing well on CWM as well as TWRP but facing issue with OMNIROM.
required your expert help.
I just installed the 7/23 build and had no issues. I am running TWRP 2.7.1.0 that I compiled. Here is the link http://goo.gl/hrd5uN. This is not a flashable zip. You will need to flash it from adb using dd or one of those fancy apps available on the Play Store that will flash recovery images. I like Nandroid Manager, but I'm sure others will work too. I will also add this to the OP, and this can be compiled using the same device tree as OmniROM in the OP.
I haven't forgotten about the NFC issue and I found out Bluetooth tethering isn't working either. I'm going to try to get to these this week but work is keeping me busy for the moment.

I'm not a camera person, so I'm not sure if this is working. I can't seem to get it to create photosphere shots but panorama is working. HDR isn't an option with the built in camera app. Please let me know if the camera isn't working as intended and if you can fix it let me know and we can incorporate the fix in the device tree.

I'm using it on my phone, but get some light stutters & screen tear while swiping in apps or in the launcher. really like the kernel tho :/ would also love to see an update for it. it's been long since it was updated.
After I attempted to install the CM 11 preview that just came out it seems as though I get stuck in a boot loop. I am able to get into the bootloader but not the recovery. The reason I think I am stuck in the boot loop is because I did not know you had to flash the boot.img that was inside the .zip file, and went ahead and flashed the .zip in my current recovery. I am just wondering if I could still fastboot flash the boot.img file without causing even more problems.
Yes, in the forum the ROM was posted (http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z2-tablet/orig-development/z2-tabletdevelopment-cm11-android-4-4-t2809793) but I guess I didn't see that he said it was in the zip :silly:.
Nonetheless, I just don't want to hard brick the device so that is why I am asking. Thanks in advance for anyone that can help!

Just to clarify first, do you have a 4G tablet or wifi version? And which one did you flash (castor or castor_windy)

Opps, meant to mention that. I have the castor_windy version (Wi-Fi) model and flashed the castor_windy zip. I also meant to mention that I have an unlocked bootloader with the CWM based recovery (found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2708194). I don't think this is as important but I do have the 16GB storage. I earlier said I could not get into that recovery that I have installed, but the violet light still goes on when I boot, but nothing else.

Ok no problem, Have you tried flashing CWM through fastboot, then reinstalling ROM through CWM?
If that can't be done, Can you flash this castor_windy version https://mega.co.nz/#!mJ5VTATR!Rb9pX0a4drAkVX53Mjf6_vZr8FqX0UzXcf1nSTzj_Fk
through fastboot, then immediately flash CWM to secure a recovery.
The link is the castor_windy ROM without having to flash a boot.img separately. Thats your safest solution instead of flashing boot.img
Thank you, just re-flashing the recovery from the thread I linked seemed to do the trick. Maybe I will try and flash Cyanogenmod later now that I got the stock ROM working again. At least I was smart enough to make a nandroid backup in CWM before hand though!
Again, thanks alot!

Sent from my Xperia Z2 Tablet Wifi using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Hi all,
bad day for me... It seems that I bricked my Z2 Tablet tonight.
At the beginning, I just wanted to install CM11.
My Z2 is a SGP512 Wifi only. So, regarding the page http://www.xperiablog.net/2014/07/12/cyanogenmod-11-nightly-builds-start-for-xperia-z2-tablet/ , it says : "There are currently nightly builds for the Wi-Fi variants (SGP511, SGP512) of the Xperia Z2 Tablet under codename “Castor Windy”" .
So I downloaded Castor Windy and put it in the tablet.
After that, I did had to install a recovery. I succeeded to install XZDualRecovery (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2794175). Once installled, I went into TWRP Recovery , started to wipe all. And next step, I began to install zip Castor Windy. At this time, TWRP tells me that Castor Windy is not for my tablet model. And I have to use Castor. Problem. I wiped all. So, I have to mount the Tablet systems and drives to put the new Castor zip downloaded. But I'm unable to mount. Nothing is mounted. I tried to use adb to connect while I was in TWRP but nothing worked. I wanted to use adb to send on one of partitions the new downloaded rom. I was unable to do that.
Finally, I shut down my tablet. I took the SD Card to put it into my PC and to put on it the downloaded Rom. And when I wanted to restart the Tablet, only the Sony Logo appears and I'm not anymore able to enter in recovery mode. ADB and Fastboot fail to detect my tablet.
I'm totally lost, and I fear that all is lost.
Please, help me, I just would like to enter recovery and flash Castor Rom.... :crying:
Thanks a lot by advance.
Tom.

Here is what I am doing:
I used TWRP but it wasnt working so i installed CWM, in both the recoveries I was wiping everything except sd card storage as my zip files were in the card. after that i flashed zip files(ROM & GAPPS). after that i rebooted to system. Am I doing it wrong? I am currently on 4.4.4 stock rom. Need help.
Thank you.

The problem wasn't with the recovery and I wasn't doing anything wrong. It was really too bad to know that the rom version I was installing had a bootloop bug in it. So I had tried two previous versions but they too had the same bug. And unfortunately I tried CONTINUOUSLY for two long days to install those same bugged ROMS as if God has put me in frustration mode. Tech fooled me right, lol.
Grab the November 8 version of Cyanogemod. There are issues with the newer updates.
