Im currently running evervolv, the 01/28 build, trying to update to current i keep getting a bad zip error in recovery. I apologize if this has been addressed elsewhere, I've been digging for two days to no avail. I've honestly considered leaving well enough Aline, as the build im on now, I've had zero issues with... Just knowing there is a fresh build, and i cant have it, is driving me crazy lol Any help I can get to resolve this will be greatly appreciated. Thnx in advance.
What recovery are you trying to install with? If it is an old out dated one, that may be your issue

I've always used the latest Among Ra... I've never had any issues until this last update. Im wondering if its not because of the whole switching of the primary storage thing when coming to kit kat?? Idk lol all my other versions of evervolv still flash fine... Its just this latest build im having issues with.. :/
I would recommend twrp or cwm. Amon ra was more for early JB and ICS

Tried twrp just now... Still no go. Same error. I guess i have to consider the possibility that it really is just a bad download or a bad link idk...? :/ Can anyone confirm that the download is good? I suppose it could be that simple... ?

@kkozma I was on the 1/28 build. Spent a couple months on my gf's farm away from civilization so I missed.... A few updates lol I was trying to update to the 5/10 build from 1/28 I should have been more specific in that regard... Im not sure really what the issue was, but I flashed TWRP yesterday, to no avail, then went back to Amon Ra today... It flashed fine for me just a couple hours ago after re-flashing Amon Ra... Same download even... Strange. But I do appreciate the input, and the help from you both. Great ROM BTW loving it.

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.
Hi guys
I'm getting a Touchpad tomorrow and have been looking around the ROM forum but unable to tell which is the best to install.
I've been flashing rom's for sometime onto my HTC phone and pretty comfortable with Clockwork Recovery. Is there a "How To" guide or do I need to go down the CM route?
Looking forward to seeing Android on this tablet and any help/advice to a newcomer would be appreciated.
Cheers!

There are some simple and well put togher guides in the dev section.
You need to install moboot, cwm & rom via acmeinstaller the first time you install android on these devices. Once you have moboot and cwm, you can play with other roms as easy as your HTC phones.
A lot of the guys and gals here have put some real nice guides and tweaks to make these tabs fun to play with.
I personally use the CM9... I have not jumped into the nightlies though. Mostly happy with the performance with the CM9 V2. I do however regularly check the nightly threads to see if it's worth updating.
Most of the other roms (I really have not played with many) share similar issues with CM9 builds (sporadic wifi, camera, etc) so I just stayed with the CM9 and have been happy doing so.
Good luck and have fun.
Hey welcome to the touchpad comunity!
You can start by following this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1452625
Once you're done sweting up CWM and Moboot
I suggest trying one of these three roms : (these are the best roms)
-Official CM9 Nightlies http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1452625
-Unofficial AOKP Nightlies http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1452625
-ClassicNerd ICS Butta HD http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1472892
I suggest that you use Nightlies because they contain a lot of fixes plus new settings...
DON'T FORGET TO FLASH GAPPS
Once you flashed the rom of your choice
Get GooManager from play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.s0up.goomanager&hl=en
GooManafer is used to update ur roms OTA
If u wish to boost performance and/or play gameloft games Flash this zip http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1519161

Thanks for the replies!
Are you able to watch video with these ROMs? I've seen conflicting reports.
Getting excited now!

Yup all roms have hardware acceleration working everything is pretty amazing except for cam and mic and some unlucky people have wifi bug i never experienced it
Right, success!
I'm got CM Alpha 2 installed. About to try and install GAPPS.
Why does my device come up with driver installation failure when plugging usb into laptop?

Please overwrite the CM9A2 with the latest CM9 Nightly via ClockwordMod 'Install Update from ZIP'.
You'll thank me after.

Done! Thanks for that.
Are the update incremental or will I need to back/up restore settings etc?
I am using AOKP on my TouchPad and it's stable and works well.

lots of tutorials/guides already explains this..
anyways, all you need is to wipe cache and dalvik when you are going through the nightlies..
I just flashed my Touchpad after many months of idleness. The first ROM I flashed turned out to be great. No force closes or lag the few days I've been using it. I highly recommend it. Very simple flashing. It's an ICS ROM too!

I am kinda new to all this. I just inherited the thunderbolt from my brother bc my other phone is dead. I am rooted and s-off running santod's Official Thunderbolt ICS deoxed debloated. My question was if I am able to switch to one of the older ROMS like NuSense ROM or UnSense ROM or anyone for that matter that I feel like. I know the process of flashing since I have gotten this far, but I don't want to flash these and then be in some sort of loop with problems.. Thanks in advance:good: Also are radios universal or.. I keep seeing people say just try a different one?
You can flash any ROM you like.
As for radios, look in the post about the ROM, they usually specify what radio is best for that ROM. The newest radio is defiantly needed for the new crop of ICS ROMs based on the official OTA as the older radios cause issues.
Only thing I can add to the first response... Always make a backup first. So when you somehow get into a bad flash/bootloop situation, you have an easy way back to a working device. Also verify your download by checking it's md5 code before you flash. Almost (if not all) files you download will have it listed with the download link on the forum op you're getting it from.

It's not your phone but the Rom itself. That's a known issue with cm roms on this phone.

I was looking forward to moving on up to KitKat with PAC ROM however I simply got bootloops after flashing both nightlies and the dr87 kernel. I'm on ZVA and I am to understand it would brick your phone to the point of returning to full stock without flashing the ZV8 radios or the dr87/Furnace kernel, but to get stuck in a bootloop lost me.
I was also surprised at how iffy it can be about getting into recovery.
However, I do look forward to checking the rom out when I can get things straight.
Edit: One more shot has it booting into setup. Used Furnace kernel this time as opposed to dr87's but it might've been something in the way I was flashing the ROM anyway.

d87's kernel won't work on PAC currently. Did you get phone FCs, where it constantly comes up, preventing usage of the device?

I wish I had known that kernel didn't work sooner, as it doesn't really warn against that in the OP...
I didn't flash the 03/04 nightly. My first thought was that it was the problem.
After sorting all this however, I was annoyed to find that the touch screen wasn't responding in the first application I installed, so I just went back to what I had. I'm sure it'll get worked out eventually (or I'll read about a fix soon enough, either way).

Really? I had no issues on 3/3 nightly, but 3/4 was all kinds of borked. It's SUPER early though, hell I'm amazed that it's as stable as it is, seeing as how it's the first few nightlies.
