[Q] Canot Update ROM using LG HACK - GT540 Optimus Android Development

Hi i am trying to update my mobile ROM using LG HACK.
After downloading the LG HACK i tried to extract the .zip file but my McAfee anti virus deleted two files from that zip file.
1.Windows enabler.exe
2.EnablderDLL.dll
So i just want to know is it possible to Update the ROM without those 2 files?

Hello,
try this KDZ hxxp://www.mediafire.com/?6do22vdco203d0y
It´s in english. First install msxml, then run the KDZ. With this one is not needed the windows enabler.exe

Don't appologize for asking questions-we all need answers to one thing or another
The first thing you want to do is go to the android market and search for Rom Manager. You already have this installed if you are running CM7, but you need to update it to the newest version.
Then, Just open your app drawer and open up Rom Manager. When it opens, the very top line says "Flash Clockwork Mod Recovery". Tap on that, choose Nook Color, and it will update to the newest version 3.2.0.1.
Hope this Helps!
What's the best way to update recovery on sdcard? Mod manager only updates the internal flash..

I downloaded an updated version located HERE and extracted the files and attached them for you. Just download and unzip the files to your current CWM SD card.

Ok, thanks! So you can indeed copy the files as-is.. with Paleolithic dos 3.2 origin, I tend to expect you need to use special app to copy the system files. In any case, I've installed the boot menu on SD card so by defaults I boot internal flash. No need to lose sanity removing the easy-to-lose usd card.. I can also start the recovery from internal flash..

Yes, I have updated a couple times by just transferring the updated files onto my bootable CWM card. I have done a number of back-ups and restores without a problem. The files are self-contained file systems, so not much damage from a simple transferring of them. If you want to install a special app for windows to be able to update the SD card in the future, then I would download this very handy tool, ImDisk, it will allow windows to mount the updated img file and extract the files from it.

[Q] Make an image from a rom

Hello all,
I'm wondering if there's any way of make an image from my phone, with all the softwares and data already installed and configured (just like Macrium Reflect do on Windows). Just like a backup, so if I have any kind of problem, I just have to flash my .zip into the phone again.
Thanks in advance.
Have you tried ClockworkModRecovery?
Fruit cake maker is a better solution for your question. Plus if you name the .zip it creates pg58img.zip and place it on your SD card root. Then you don't even need cwm.

just make a backup through CWM menu, it will backup EVERYTHING on your phone and save to clockworkmod/backup/..... in your sdcard. The backup included few .tar files instead of a single .zip, but the result is the same --- you can restore it (overwrite everything) to your phone at anytime.

When you backup with the recovery menu(power+volume button simultaneously pressed until u see the android picture), you will find this backup files either in the EXT SD card or the Internal SD depending the CWM version, in the clockworkmod/backup. All you have to do is to get into recovery mode and restore.....it works perfectly
It worked!
That was just what I needed!
Many thanks for your help guys....

Cannot install any ROM

Hi, I'm using Xperia X8 with 2.1 stock and baseband 015..
When I'm trying to install some ROM from here, Xrecovery gives an error: Cannot open xxx (bad). Installation aborted.
Can anyone help?

is the xxx zip file ??
try to install it with cwm recovery, not xRecovery
Thanks for help, but still nothing.. The same error with CWM... Yes, it's a zip files
Do the zip files have spaces in their names? If so, remove all spaces.
Another thought is that the files get corrupted when downloading. Maybe there's a problem with your internet connection or PC
I doubt it, though.
What rom are you trying to install?
Sent from my X8 using xda premium
1.My PC is okay
2.It hasn't got any spaces in it's name
3.I've tried so many ROMs like gingerbread and froyobread.
On my last X8 it worked well, but here..
Are you install cwm manually? If yes try do it with x8toolbox
Sent from my X8 using xda premium
Still the same...
Repair your phone with PC compaion then install CWM recovery put Prime HD for stock kernel on sdcard
if this does not help then try to unlock bootloader
Doesn't work, still the same...

Same problem with diferents custom roms, solved CHANGING SD for me(8G one for 4G, i don't know if SD's size was the problem)
Dude, check in the zip file and see if it is really a ROM. If it has two folders, one called "META-INF" and "system" it's a rom, else it could have a "date named folder" so it's a backup file (like in Matej's rom/eclair), you must extract it to the clockworkmod folder. Or even to give the installation aborted, it maybe means that the meta-inf ins't installing the rom or the system files is corrupted, try to download the rom again, but if it's your own rom, try to recompile it, if made with Winrar use mode "store" and set as .zip.
If nothing work, try this:
1- Format SD Card;
2- Save the rom in the SD Card again;
3- Reflash Kernel and Recovery
4- Try to install rom again.
Or even try to install clockwork, if you're using x-recovery...

Well, this is interesting. Can you tell me the model of the 8GB one? Can you test both of them with CrystalDiskMark or something and post the speeds here?

Size isn't the problem, I think, because my SD is 8gb with 2gb as ext and works very well with both x-rec and cwm...

Bootloop problem after freezing Homescreen Selector

Hi
First post here, I'm new to Android and rooting but I know my way around computer systems in general so hoping you guys can help me, haven't seen a thread about this exact problem so far.
I've semi-bricked (bootlooped) my Samsung Galaxy Ace running Gingerbread, having rooted it last month using the upd_1 package and enjoying a bloatware-free phone, happily installing apps onto my second partition on my SD card. I've not changed my ROM, just the stock is good enough for me for now. However I was getting continually prompted by Homescreen Selector nags at powering up for some reason and I thought I could disable it by applying Freeze using LInk2SD, but since doing that I continually get the Samsung logo, the orange "explosion" (I'm with Orange) then a vibration and the whole cycle repeats. My guess is the operating system can't find the selector.apk app since I froze it.
I thought the solution would be simple - use adb shell to rename back from selector.fro to selector.apk. However I'm unable to find any such file in my system/app folder. There are a load of other apk and odex files but not that one. When I type su I get "permission denied", though I definitely rooted my phone but I don't think I have my bootloader unlocked.
I don't have CWM installed or any backups unfortunately (yes, I know...), so even if I took one now prior to a factory reset, surely the same problem would come back if I were to restore from any backup I were to take now. I can get into Recovery and Download screens ok but don't want to restore the whole ROM unless I have to, since I know it's only one APK that is at fault.
So, please can anyone tell me how to locate the selector.fro file to turn it back to selector.apk? Or can't I do that without unlocking the bootloader first, or is there another solution?
Many thanks in advance,
Graham
Wouldnt it be possible to make a zip of the selector.apk and flash it? Rename the zip-file to "update" (since you're unable to browse to your specific file).

Hi, thanks for the response
Do you mean copy a zip of selector.apk to the SD card and run it from there, same as I did when I rooted? Where can I obtain a copy of that apk from? I can't find it on my computer or via Google...

You can extract it from the ROM's zip file, just locate it as you would on your phone.
But I don't have a ROM zip file. I'm not using a custom ROM, just stock. I may go down the custom ROM route one day, but for now I just want my phone to work again in the quickest way possible.
All I need is a copy of the original stock home selector APK. Can anyone help here please?
Found the file!
Never mind, got the apk from another thread. Flashing tonight...

I already read this tutorial but didnt get following part rest I followed :
You simply need to meet three easy requirements:
Code:
Stock Firmware installed on the Phone (custom ROMS not supported ...They don't need to!)
A microSD with two primary formatted partitions inside (the former 'to FAT32' and the latter 'to EXT4' filesystems)
Ready to Flash to your Galaxy Next via Odin
Thanks
firstly never use rom manager or cwm manager or nay other thing like that on mini
as they have hard bricked too many minies
then root your phone with universal gb root zip file
second see the firmware code you have
then download the same kernel from the second link I gave you
then use mini tool partition wizard on you windows PC to make two partitions of your sdcard
first partition must be primary with same file system your sdcard is having
second with alteast 1gb of space and file system as ext 3/4
a better guide is here:- http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/SD_card_partitioning
then ask here again what to do next
thanx
