[HELP] dell venue 3830 rom zip - Dell Venue

hi all
ultimately i'm trying to make my own flashable zip for the dell venue 3830 android 4.2.2 but i always have a problem
first status 255, then status 6 and/or status 7 that i solved but after flashing the zip doesn't boot. appears the dell logo and then a black screen and i have to restore from a backup to try again. :crying:
i'm asking if someone have a solution or a suggestion becuase i'm new and maybe i'm doing wrong something
maybe is the updater-script i'll add the recently used if someone have time to view it a while

Your updater-script is completely wrong, the tablet will never boot. You need to fix it, I am not interested in 4.2.2 so not interested in fixing the updater-script.
I am just posting to let you know it's wrong.

thanks for your answer vampirefo , i have to admit that my updater-script sucks and is the only one of various of my updater-scripts that completed the installation .
i really would like to view one of my own zip working so, if you have some free time, can you give me a hand for this? (you have see it i really need help) even if is in 4.4.2 or the version that are you interested

My 4.4.2 is already available, http://forum.xda-developers.com/dell-venue/general/dell-venue-8-stock-rooted-4-4-2-rom-t2923924

Venuedroid?

That is a dell streak
the rom is stock 321 from a venue,
the screen is upside down,
the rom is UNMODIFIED
the kernel is from streakdroid 191.
Admittedly the streakdroid kernel is unlikely to load on the venue, but the kernel is essentially the only real obstacle from getting a custom rom like streakdroid on the venue. (and the kernel is 95% of what makes streakdroid different too)
So what does this mean? I'm confused, sorry.
1. I have system dumps of venue roms which are almost ready for release
2. If anyone's interested i can port my mods pretty easily to the venue
3. Porting stuff in general to the venue from the streak is relatively easy
Once my tester verifies that the roms load and work correctly, I'll release the system dumps for whoever wants to unbrick their venue.
Some of the theme mods should install without changes if it wasnt for the fact there's no custom recovery for the venue, the rest should be pretty easy to port
So this is good news then!

I got dump of my venue system partition but when my venue was bricked I was unable to flash system partition image. And I was able to flash other partitions... why this was happening ...? I get some queue error while flashing system partition dump....
Sent from my Dell Venue using XDA App
Your system partition might be bad, if you can upload a copy for me to look at (and to simply have as i'm building a collection) I can see if the dump is good.
Since I havnt been able to get any good reports, I'm simply gonna post it
Here
Ok then ill build another system partition dump.... then ill upload it for you.... and I saw many posts in other sites that it was not possible to flash system partition dump.... from their posts I came to know that many people were getting the same error as mine while flashing system partition....
Sent from my Dell Venue using XDA App
I updated the post on the link, please continue this discussion there.
I do not own a venue so I dont know if flashing system works, but these images I created boot fine on my streak and I assume they should boot fine on an actual venue.
If I actually had one I could make stuff a lot faster as I have no reliable test monkies
What was the source for your images.? Are those images built using Dell streak..?

so are you saying your on the official 2.2 but you want to update to the streakdroid 2.3 custom rom? Is this correct?
Actually, he didn't like the answer I gave him in this thread, because instead of handing him the answers on a silver platter I provided him with a link and told him to use the search engine. So he's looking to you to give him the answer, instead of taking the time to read the sticky I provided him.
It's your decision as to whether you want to help him, and how much you want to help him. But whatever you do, encourage him to read the friggin' sticky, so that he has a fighting chance of fixing potential problems that may happen in the process of rooting.

ha yeah i hear you! I know i didn't get anything handed to me on a silver platter when it came to figuring it all out. I did my own work and research and read almost every post and sticky i could before i even attempted to jump to a custom rom. thanks for the heads up man! Im only here to help if someone gets stuck in a bind not a full hand out of every single detail.
Sooo many answers and not enough time to sort through them.
So what did I do wrong if my streak is getting the failed install Status 7 error?
Someone says to just let the phone startup but mine gets stuck and stays at the Dell logo.
Thanks!!

did you do a factory reset before installing the rom? has to be dells factory reset not clock work's reset. its the one on dells white screen at top of list. do this first then try to install again.

I tried again and still get the following...
assert failed: write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img", "boot")
E: Error in /sdcard/GS2_3beta2.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
So I don't know what I am doing wrong. I copied the amss and dsp1 files via fastboot and did the factory reset. but no dice.
I was on just the GingerStreak but it had a couple random restarts and is unable to install some applications to the SD card. Could be an SD card error so I will check that real quick.
Might go to one of the stock roms since I am too dumb to figure this out.
broerman2003,
Thanks for the offer. I'll take advantage & ask a quick question.
Under "About Phone" what Baseband Version is reported?
After amss & dps files were added my info is "Unknown."

ok. what recovery flasher are you using to flash this rom with. I personally use clockworkmod to flash mine with. if you are using this as well let me know and ill tell you the steps i used when i installed mine. also if you do have an extra sd card try swapping it out with it and see what happens. if not try formating sd card in the settings of your phone.

hey sorry it took so long to get back to you. ok on my streak it says Baseband version is GAUSB00000. not sure why yours is says unknown but this baseband version mine is saying looks a little odd anyways cause i know the last 2 numbers (00) means unlocked version and of course im sure this rom is based off of a 354 or higher baseband and i dont even see that in the version code so im assuming this is a generic made up baseband that was written up in the build prop. hope this helps you out!

Apart from the odd reboot and opera browser constantly crashing my 2.3 install runs fine. Dont suppose anyone knows how to fix the opera crashing issue ?

[Q] Custom ROM for Dell Streak 5

Recently i got dell streak and now i'm very disappointed hearing that dell has no plan for android 4.0 update for dell streak 5
Any custom Rom available running on android 4.0 for dell streak 5
I'm new and using dell for 1st time so please give a detailed guide on how to install custom Rom in it
Any help will be appreciated
Thanks!
No ROM for ICS, nor is there likely to be one unless the drivers are reverse engineered.

Its been made.very clear you have to do an extensive wipe to flash either the CM7 or MIUI ROMs on the Streak. The fact you are bootlooping or stuck at Dell logo proves you probably didn't do that OR worst case scenario you may have to reformat your entire inner SD as we have no idea what you did before going to Gingerbread.
So factory reset from BOTH recoveries (Dell recovery and Streakmod) and flash again.
I can't believe I just wrote that when its in countless posts... I must be in a good mood today

thanks a million , and thanks for your good mode too i have tired it , and it worked , and by mistake i have installed the gingerbread 2.4.4 instead of cm7 , and it is great

If you believe GingerStreak is good, then you want to try DSC or CM7. GingerStreak hasn't been updated in over a year now and was based on beta code for Gingerbread. DSC and CM7 are far more current, far more stable, and have few (if any) showstopper bugs.
honestly, i would recommend to try dsc 1.0 first and when you have familiarized yourself with it, goes for dsc 1.1
ICS is now being developed for the streak. I have been using the pre-alpha build and for me it is now good for use as an everyday rom.
Im not saying its 100% bug free yet but ive been using it for 3 days now and i can live with the issues it currently has now.
After todays update flash is now working and for me that was the only undesirable, with it now fixed I wont be turning back.
The rom is being updated at a good pace and I dont think the beta is too far away.

Request for development: boot/system images

Could someone please upload a copy of the boot.img and the system.img?

Sorry misunderstood... my bad english... So you should try to flash the other image from jcase and your skype should works again!!!
full flash for stock should be up soon.
so you can flash back the stock boot, recovery, droidboot images also will have a unrooted system image.
soon after images with the updates applied will come.

I plan on attempting twrp after I finish the toolKIT and updating the factory images for both devices.
That is a miss conception the bootloaders are in fact locked the v8 dev conversion comes with a dev signing tool to sign the kernel, modules, and boot.img it also only comes with the boot stub for boot not one for recovery or fastboot though it might be possible to sign images repacked with the Intel packing tools that turl originally supplied.
But we will see.

Thank you. Another thing worth noting is that I can't get a lot of root apps to work on the JC stock rooted 4.3 flash. Firstly, I cannot modify iptables, which is the basis of DroidWall and Orbot Privoxy, both important apps to me. This appears to be a kernel incapability... Specifically the netfilter command.
Another major problem I'm having is that I can't install Xposed. It writes/installs properly but my V8 goes into bootloop, not fixable until I disable Xposed.
I also installed Busybox, manually mounted /system rw, and tried everything one more time hoping it would fix it, nothing changed.
Also worth noting is when I flashed the JC ROM, SuperSU did not come with it and I had to install it manually. Not sure if this is normal.
Any help is appreciated,

I have a venue 7 personally so I have never used the case root image. I haven't tested I was working on obtaining the remaining images for the factory v8. and a simple toolKIT to make flashing for the average user as easy as possible. If you look back through the root thread there is a version of exposed that was beta for the Asus Intel tablet that works just don't update it, in the tool kit I hope to have finalized tmrw I included an installer for the working exposed few.

Update: I got Xposed installed using the Asus/Intel beta mentioned above (thank you!). I'm finding myself pretty happy with my tablet now. Even though it was stock, there were just some obvious things missing, one of them annoying as heck: lack of a restart button (really?). I installed Gravity Box and everything seems to be working fine on this beta. I even got XHaloWindows working! Screenshots attached. I was definitely not gonna be able to live without multitasking, and I had a feeling it wasn't gonna work with our x86 tablet. So just so everyone knows, everything Xposed related is working, and I included pics of my current setup.
It's still driving me nuts that nothing iptables related will function. I am aware that this can be fixed simply via ticking a setting in the kernel configuration file. Netfilter to be exact. I'm hoping that can be fixed. (I'm not smart enough to mess with kernels yet lol).
I hope this inspires someone!

Did root break encryption making for anyone else? I can start the process but then the tablet just reboots.

Hi,
I am a little confused about this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2681793...why is it in the General forum and not in one of the Dell Venue subforums? It really doesn't belong in the main General forum, so I need to move it somewhere more appropriate and I don't want to just blindly move it into the Venue forums, if there was a reason for it to be elsewhere.
Thanks

Thank you it is much appreciated that you didn't just blindly move the thread without asking first.
I don't feel the Venue forums located under the legacy / low activity devices is the proper place for these devices, the venue device covered under that is the old failed DEll Venue Phone and not the New Intel Mobile Internet Class Device that these tablets are, there were a few threads created by other users for these device under that heading but it seemed to have been causing confusion for both users of the Venue Phone and New users with the Venue 7 / 8 and was hard for new users to find...
The other issue was the original thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2520166 was becoming a very toxic environment users getting upset about people posting general questions in a root thread so i felt the need to separate rooting and general device discussion into two threads.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2681793 the forum you inquired about located under General discussion
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2681783 my other forum also located under General discussion.
While i understand that both these threads are misplaced under the General discussion > General > heading i feel that if they need to be moved a new device should be created for them to keep the seperate from the older Dell Venue Phone. Honestly i fell XDA needs to create a new category to house all Intel Mobile Internet Class Device as this is an emerging market.
thank you for your time and please please please on behalf of the Dell Venue Intel Mobile Internet Class Device users i beg you not to move our device to the dead section.
We have a large system update, any info on what it is?
