I am stuck on epe76

what do i do here .I have a nexus one unlocked from google and i had the froyo 2.2 .in an attempt to root it i had to downgrade it to epe76 and then frf85b.But i am stuck on epe76.what is wrong,what am i doing wrong?i also copied passimg.zip to my sd card .it says no imge!!!!

You said you were unlocked? Then just flash whatever rom you want from the development section.

Long time reader, first time poster ;D
Same problem for me.
screwed up rooting my FRF91, so downgraded to EPE76, which a kind bloke here was good enough to put together as an entire package.
I think OP's problem is that most flashable roms seem to already require a certain radio, or they're just updates to an existing froyo built.
Seems a little difficult to find a stand alone rom you can stick straight onto your device, even with an custom recovery.
I'd love to be proved wrong!
I think another issue is that there's a lot of jargon in most custom rom posts, or just a general assumption that new users will know what they're doing. Of course, given the right research, most people can figure it out. But I feel your pain, OP.

I mean it is unlocked from Google. Does. That mean I can flash any Rom *? Do I need to root it? I got it to frf85 it asked me if I wanted the ota and I did just that.. my reason to do so was just wanting to make sure I get the necessary information before another attempt.

I have exactly the same issue. And cant seem to upgrade either.
Tried with amon_ra but it says the frf85b file is not signed.
And trying with cyn* everything seems to go fine.
I reboot, and it keeps rebooting into amon....
And when i finally set the device to power of, then turn it back on. Im still stuck in epe76.....
Any ideas anyone?

[FIX] for Status 7 Error in Nexus S 2.3.1 Upgrade

Those of us who flashed rootboot.img to install a rooted/insecure boot image were unable to update via the 2.3.1 OTA (Status 7 Error). A few different solutions have been posted. Here's one which worked for me, courtesy of momohammed20 and Luxferro:
Step 1: Restore the "2010-12-22.21.06.07" Nandroid backup which momohammed20 shared in this thread. That wipes your phone completely and gives you stock 2.3.1 without root.
Step 2: Follow the steps provided by Luxferro in this post. That gets you back root along with ClockworkMod Recovery.
Worked perfectly for me. Again, the solution is already out there in a few other threads, but I thought this deserved its own thread since a lot of folks have been stuck with the Status 7 error when trying to update.
Thanks again to momohammed20 and Luxferro!

Umm if we have 2.3 we can't nandroid a 2.3.1 backup. Ull get an error every time.

I followed these steps, and they worked nicely with no errors whatsoever. Others have done the same.

U were runninr2.3 rooted and then nandroid the 2.3.1 and u didn't get a MD5 error? Hard to beloved BC I've tried 5 times. Can anyone else try this out n let us know? ?

EDIT: just got it to work.. I re-downloaded it and it loaded. Seems the nandroid I dl from that thread the first time got renamed n it had a "(" in it, and recovery couldn't read the file...
Thanks alot tho, u were right!!

So will this allow the future flashing of OTAs without issue?

i also want to know if this will allow for future updates. i dont want to be reflashing my phone for every minor update.

Yes it will. The bootloader remains unlocked. But it restores everything to stock 2.3.1, and will have stock recovery, so next time there's a OTA it won't get an error when Its flashing BC u will be using the stock recovery n not CWR
Oh btw there's no root, in case u didn't understand what Stock 2.3.1 meant.

From what I understand, the problem lies in the boot.img and not ClockworkMod.

"Status 7" is the result of a rooted boot.img. It has nothing to do with ClockworkMod Recovery.

I don't know about that. For this particular OTA, it seems that the problem was the root boot. The method in the OP addresses that. However, I wouldn't assume that the next OTA will be compatible with a rooted device. My understanding (and I am no authority) is that the only way to know you're going to be getting OTAs is to revert to full stock. My intent was to have root and recovery in 2.3.1, not to get back to stock and stay there.

Wish this was posted this morning before i gave up
between some people getting it to work and other not working. People posting methods with stock boot.img but come to find out it wont work with rootboot....ect
Then realizing some people are on one root method while other used another...too confusing and i gave up after countless tries and gave and flashed modaco GRH78 r2 and glad i did because its pretty good..
IMO guys if this is going to require to you wipe your data save your self from headaches and just flash modaco GRH78 r2 with supercurio's EXT4 tweak it also rooted has new market and other fun stuff

demo, that's a good point. I'm using the r2 MoDaCo ROM now - it seems very good!

Nope, that is false. I had initially used superboot to root my phone when I first got it (w/ the pre-rooted modified boot.img). And I still got the prompt for the update. It will just give you a MD5 mismatch error when you accept the prompt and try to update.

deleted (accidental double post)

Luxferro, I think you misunderstood what I wrote. I too was rooted and got the prompt for this particular OTA, and some folks who were rooted (without root boot) were able to apply the OTA without an error. What I was trying to say was that the only way to be sure that they can receive and apply all future OTA updates would be to revert to stock (or have a means to revert to stock).

the status 7 error is a result of the patch process not finding a proper checksum for the things its patching if you have deleted system/framework apk's/odex's de-odexd the system/framework themed the system/framework changed the kernel this will cause status 7 error and will give you a hint on where the issue lies i.e. it will say somthing about calculator not match if you deleted it and error code 7

[Q] How to update my phone's firmware?

Hi there guys. As you probably noticed,i'm new here,so pardon me if my question sounds noobish at the time,but I promise I'll learn from you guys! Thanks!
So,the question's simple. How do I update my phone's firmware? Don't wanna brick or possibly damage my phone here,as I just bought a couple of days ago. So,is there any risk to update the phone's firmware? Thanks bros!

Have you use search features before asking this question?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1111771

Yeah,saw that already,but it seems to convoluted for me. I need a one-to-one kinda reply. Honestly,I didn't understand anything that was written on that page. So,could please someone clarify it in a more simple,noobish,way?
Thanks bro!

pdf guides are included in the kit. just follow them

either you can use KDZ or R&D for the official
or flash any custom ROM with CWM
(the tutor is already out there)
and the risk ? bootloop or brick maybe

Thanks bros! And another thing,what are custom ROMs? I keep hearing about it like Cyanogen? What's the upside for using it?

Custom roms in simple terms are unofficial versions of the o/s modified or "cooked" by people who want to add or remove certain features or performance tweaks. The upside is you can find a ROM that suits your usage and aesthetic preferences. For more info read through some ROM threads and compare their features.
However there is always a chance something could go wrong even if you know what you are doing. So my advice would be to read and re read the instructions from rooting to flashing radios to flashing roms and look up the termanology until you think you understand and then read it all again. There are some good guides around that can givevyou the basics.
Otherwise you can wait until your carrier releases a official update.

Thanks for clarifying bros!
And another thing,I just saw this vid at Youtube.
It's called "How To Install CyanogenMod 7 On Your Android Device"
I can't post the link here because im still new,haha!
Is it really that easy to install Cyanogenmod on your phone? But your phone have to be rooted first,right?
I saw the list with the firmware from various countries,but not mine,Malaysia. How do I solve this? I'm still suck with V10-a,which i think is the oldest firmware for OB.
Also,what are these baseband,kernel and build number thingies? Anything important? Thanks! Really starting to get interested in these things!

I think the following is related to malayians so you have to use an indonesian firmware :
http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/tool_mode_country_check.jsp?model=LGP970&country=MY
- you can flash firmwares anytime whatever the situation
- to flash a ROM (cyanogen, nova...) you need the custom recovery mod called ClockworkMod alias CWM (available on the market via ROM Manager app, or my kit)
- and for CWM, root access is needed
once phone is rooted and CWM installed, phone potential is extended to the infinite. you can then install a lot of useful apps of more and customize your phone.
I think the general goal of all of that, is to optimize and extend possibilities as far as possible and then you'll be able to say that you "truly own" your phone

Thanks for clearing that up bro. BTW,would you recommend me using Gingerbreak to root my phone? Since i'm using an older firmware,it should be ok,right?

no problem, blackjack should do it too. do as your feeling

Thanks bro! Anyway,anything else I should know and do before I root my phone? Like should I do a factory reset,battery level 100% or something?

2 steps : root, flash recovery.
know that you'll have to use an app to boot into recovery (ROM manager, anreboot, ezboot...) take a look at my thread for more infos

Ouh,wow,did that felt stupid,haha. So what you're saying is,after rooting my phone,I should get to installing ClockWorkMod Recovery,am I right? And the only way to install it is using the computer,connect it with the phone,and execute the UPK that you have provided in your download link. After that,I use the app,EzBoot,to boot into recovery mode,is this correct?
After that,what will I do in the recovery mode? Thankies again!

all right. as I said earlier, the recovery mode extends phone potential in an easy way. many ROMs and mods must be did via recovery. in fact, CWM helps you flashing files, roms, doing backups/restorations and more. jump the step and see by yourself.
don't forget to backup before anything

By backing up,you mean backing up contacts and internal memory stuffs,right?
All right! Will root my phone as soon as my charge hits 100%! Using gingerbreak! Is the root reverse-able? I mean,can I unroot my phone once I root it?

you don't need 100% battery as long phone is plugged. for now, blackjack doesn't have a reverse process. but gingerbreak, yes, considering the fact you stay on v10a/b. you may try with the new superoneclick. the most radical method is still flashing a firmware (so you'll lose all stuffs)
and yes, backup any saveable thing. although CWM saves all datas, more safety is more safe

Root My Vivid

Hello. I am new to this forum. I did do searching before I came here. I am sort of a noob so sorry for dumb questions. I wanted an MIUI theme on my phone. I tried MiHome but it doesn't change the UI so I want to get the MIUI ROM on my phone but I wasn't sure how. I know you have to root your phone first, but I read somewhere that MIUI isn't compatible with different rooting procedures like CyanogenMod. If thats true, which one is it compatible with? Is it possible for me to get MIUI on my phone? I have an HTC Vivid (of course) with Android ICS 4.0.3. Can anyone provide me with a guide on how to do get MIUI on my phone, preferably a video with a step-by-step description (yes, thats how noobish I am). Also, what are the odds of me rooting my phone if I follow the steps exactly as told? Sorry for a ton of questions. To sum things up, I would like to get MIUI ROM on my phone but have no idea how. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Alright....you need to do ALOT of reading...I only say that so you don't brick your phone...but here's some info as well as how to get miui
It doesn't matter how you root your phone, you can still flash any Rom...you don't even need to be rooted to flash roms
Cyanogenmod is not a rooting method, it is an aosp rom...you cam flash from cyanogen but our device doeant even have a cyanogenmod Rom (well there is one but it was discontinued...for now)
In order to get miui you will need to do the following:
1) unlock bootloader
2) get recovery
3) download miui onto your phone (can't be any miui...has to be one made for our phone...you can find it on rootzwiki.com)
4) flash miui
More detail:
In order to unlock bootloader and get a recovery I suggest using Hansen vivid toolkit that is stickier in the dev section...its the easiest most newb friendly way to unlock bootloader and get a recovery...for the most part all you do is plug in your phone and click a few buttons...here's the toolkit: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1498003

I guess I'm forced to use my slow PC. Hopefully it won't shut down in the process or else I'll be screwed. :/ Thanks again! I'll let you know if it works out if you want.

Just some ideas , if your pc is slow you can download and of the files you need on your phone then transfer them over to the pc , also if you download the tool kit you shouldn't need anything else but the Rom , if you get s off you will need to do a couple of things , but as mg said do some reading on this subject to kinda get an idea as to what your working with , make sure you kinda understand it so you don't brick your ph. Better safe than sorry .
Good luck and if you have questions there is a lot of good people here and would be glad to help.

Help! I managed to root my phone, which is good. I am currently using WCX. I am not sure how to flash the rom. I tried going to my internal sd card and installing the miui zip file from there. After it reboots my phone, an htc logo loads, then it takes me to some chinese. It has like big chinese words on top in red, then in the middle it has white words, and in between the white words, it loads from 0 to 100 but I have no idea what to do now. It just leaves me stuck on this page! Can anyone help me? Do I need to uninstall the rom then follow a correct process of installation or can I just do the correct process? Also, please don't redirect me to some page, because I did a lot of googling and I found one which would help me, but the site is down. I am sure it isn't a long process. This is what I did:
1. Manually put the zip file into my internal sd card.
2. Rebooted my phone to recovery.
3. Installed the zip file, which flashed the rom.
Is that correct? Can someone please help me! Thanks!

I tried what you said. I am using the All In One tool kit that someone told me to use so I flashed the kernel (boot.img) through that, assuming it is fastboot. I then rebooted my phone to recovery and selected the zip file, it flashed it. I rebooted my phone and it still takes me to that chinese screen. Is there a different MIUI ROM zip file download?

Maybe a different file would work? Thanks in advance!

It's been a while since I used miui, but last I heard the themes in the miui theme chooser/downloader wernt compatible with miui...at least the majority wernt there was still quite a few that worked/partially worked
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using Tapatalk 2

With the ROM I used, since I am S-On (which I assume you are too since you did not do the wire jump thing from what I read) after you initially flash the boot.img file using fastboot, you need to flash the rom, which you said you did. Then go back in and reboot to bootloader, and flash the boot.img again. It may have been just specific to the Rom I used, but that is the instructions I followed for mine. I hope you made a nandroid before you flashed Miui in case you ran into these troubles....

[Q] RUU

Hi, I did a lot of things with my One Mini 2 and I actually really don't know what to do anymore... So much options and yet there always seems to be a problem. Let me explain everything.
What I did:
-flashed a custom rom, then went back to a stock rom of this forum
-flashed the dt2w kernel, it messed up my phone so I then flashed the liberty one, which worked
But with the liberty one I had some memory problems, for exemple I couldn't take screenshots... That's why I decided that I wanted to put my phone just as it was when I bought it, I really hope that's possible, by that I mean having official firmwares etc, therefore being able to do official upgrades from my phone (is that what OTA is?).
I looked on internet and it looks like what I need is RUU, as it includes everything (from what I understood)... I know a lot of threads were made about this, but quite a few months ago, so that's why I'm making a new one, and to make things clear.
Also, I downloaded an official kernel from htcdev.com, but each time I tried flashing it with TWRP, it "failed".
So, if you guys have an answer, solution or, in best case, the actual RUU, that would be great.
Thanx

Also, I downloaded an official kernel from htcdev.com, but each time I tried flashing it with TWRP, it "failed".
So, if you guys have an answer, solution or, in best case, the actual RUU, that would be great.
Thanx

Still no RUU's avaiable as HTC wont release them. your best option is to use TWRP backup and restore.
Original stock backup

Thank you, but my backup kind of disappeared... I saw your post where there was the "HTC Original Backup.zip", I tried to flash but again it failed... Am I supposed to flash it as a backup?

You need to send it as it is to your phone and use TWRP > restore. choose file and done.

Thanx so much for answering... I uses the backup you told me to. Although I had to use the "install" option instead of the backup one, it now works perfectly! But how do I know if my phone is "official"? Are the upgrades going to be made straight from the phone?

Yes OTA updates should work just fine. just look for updates in settings>about >software update.
you may have one for polaris office.

Hi, I just want to check this too before I screw up wife's phone..
She has CM12 on her phone now as I replaced recovery as well as unlocking bootloader. Now she wants it back to stock as too many things crash on her. I get that I can install your backup but what worries me is that other posts have said you need the stock recovery to allow for OTA updates to work and the link to this no longer works.
She MUST have OTA updates or my balls will be removed, so can you please confirm this, but also explain why.
Thanks (on behalf of my testicles and unborn children!)
(Oh, and she wants it unrooted ant the bootloader relocked)
