How to install CyanogenMod over GOT

Hello,
i have GOT 2.2, and now i want to install teh latest Cyanogenmod.
However i dont know were to include "update-0.04-10.12.08-cm-6.1.0-Milestone-signed.zip".
In my sd card i have 2 folders:
OpenRecovery
OpenRecovery-CFG
Should i put somewhere inthere the files downloaded?
Or should i delete them, and download another Open Recovery?
Thank you so much for the help!

here => Openrecovery\updates
Then in the OR you have to choose the option apply update.zip
/Edit: did u flash the 2.2.1 kernel first or is this already included in this zip?

kernel is included in the zip
(i update to CM6 from 2.1)
but you can flash 2.2.1 got if you want (i don't know why you should do this, but you can ^^)

When you say flash you mean sbf? Yes I used sbf and then used the update zip and GOT open recovery.
Thus now I should not delete any folder and just copy the new zip file in updates? There are some other files in there, should I delete them?
And then just apply the update zip through the known way when stating phone? And will see there the updates and choose cynam.

Anyone please?
As i got really confused!
If i just delete the whole two folders and start from scratch would it be ok?
Or does the system need the Open Recovery Folders?

you can put the zip file into the folder"/OpenRecovery/updates"
then reboot your phone to recovery,choose "update.zip"
after that you can choose "update",find "update-0.04-10.12.08-cm-6.1.0-Milestone-signed.zip"
apply,then reboot.over

OK thanks when i apply the update this comes up:
Reboot System
Console
--- Stock Features---
Nandroid
Root Phone
---GOT Modding Menu---
Launch 2,1 Menu
Launch 2.2.1 Menu
Launch CM6 menu
---- Stock GOT Features Menu---
Miscellaneous
USB Mas Storage mode
Settings Menu
Wipe & Cleaning Menu
Open Recovery loader

ok found it it was in another menu!

So i suppose the same would happen for other ROMs as well?
For example MIUI?

MIUI is the same,but not every rom.
you should watch the notice carefully

and before and after your updating,
wipe is very important.
or mabe you can't pass the M picture

Well, with this Rom, I can't connect to google services.
Gmail is not in my applications and also I can't install it... market cannot load... when I press add account, it just goes to desktop...
Any ideas about what shall I do? Now I have nil contacts...

Now click on start.......Wait LGMDP will backup your nv2 file(nv2-file includes e.g. you IMEI or MAC-Address..so your phone will not work without this !!! )

How to change ROM Easily
Answer is Mik's new-baseband-patch
In past if you wanted to install any Custom ROM after you flashed official 2.3.3, you had to use KDZ tool to go back to Official 2.2 to get the network working.
but now you can easily flash any custom ROM by recovery. and if you do not see network(as you won't) then flash new-baseband-patch and bingo now you have signal....
BTW If you face any GSM or DATA related Issue after flashing this patch then report this to mik not me........

Thank you

Good for you
WOW.. Someone actualy posted instructions, good on you for taking the time to do that.
I think there is something in device manager that has to be disabled before doing the above steps.
I thought is was funny to see a stock rom hit in the 900 in quadrent. Will try the rom tomorrow.

It is already written here? "My" ROM is a stock rooted LG v20g with a2sd, no other changes done.

This may sound stupid but why can't you just flash the ROM why all these steps also can you add any other mods after you flash the rom??? Like franco tweaks or ungazes data2sd????

This ROM is an official one that's why I won't flash it. LG will never be better than mik, andy or franco. However, I have a question : where can I find the icon's of the settings app from your ROM ? I like them and I want to modify a little mik's ROM to add these icons for myself

[NAND][NANDROID] ATTISOID first release [29.2.2012]

Hi Guys! I finally can release my first customized themed ROM from SP3DV build! This is my daily use ROM and think it is so good to share it.
I'd prefer to shared the NANDROID (backup restore) but maybe upload the usual installing .zip file in next days. The major advantages of this rom is that it can boot with SD CARD inserted (It work for me and hope to work with any SD CARD type). Also use an app (tasker) that prevents rebooting after any missed call.
FEATURES:
- Based on CyanogenMod 7.1 Android 2.3.7
- This is a MOTO BLUR themed rom. (I don't use the BLURHOME launcher becouse it is so heavy for X1. Instead I use a blur theme for Great GO LAUNCHER EX)
- Changed Bootanimation with a 3D CYANOGENMOD7.
- JAVA enabled (For installing .jar files).
- New WALLPAPERS.
- 3 new AOSP themes Added (MOTOBLUR, ANASTASDROID, ROVER BLACK).
- Customized framework-res.apk.
- US text-to-speech (tts) Added.
- Changed the default FONT with the CHINT font.
- used the last Zargloub's kernel (gf111062 - 28.2.2012).
- CPU Max and Min frequency customized (128~614MHZ).
ADDED:
- Go launcher ex with BLUR theme, Go locker, Go locker themes, Go taskmanager, Go weather.
- Gauge battery widget.
- X-plore.
- Smart keyboard pro.
- Multitasking pro (With long press of home key it appears).
- Ucbrowser and Ucxunlei (a great chinese downloading app).
- Audio effect.
- TASKER (A good replacement of chinese Newding) [Great Thanks to BORKISHA and other guys that introduce it].
REMOVED:
- Stoke Android Keyboard.
- Old CMWALLPAPERS.
- CM7 old themes.
- Newding
BUGS:
THIS ROM IS UNROOT! So there are some bugs like wifi problems!
IF YOU DONT HAVE THE CLOCKWORKMOD recovery flashed to your XPERIA X1, please see the link blow till flashing CLOCKWORKMOD recovery. [thanks to Kerfooly]

IMPORTANT NOTE:
There are not something special in that build! just can find a way to prevent SD CARD checking while boot! I find that if the build be unroot it can't stuck while boot! I try 4zroot for unroot but it can't reroot! When the build be unroot some bugs appear! If the unroot-reroot problem solves, can say that the SD CARD problem finally can be solved!

first one unbelivable it really works with sdcard inserted nice job attisa!!!!
my simcard can't get detected with this rom

wow...really this build can used daily ??

Thanks for your rom

I'd post the installer .zip file in some next days! But for now you can modify the TASKER app to use your ringtone! because this app use the SD CARD ringtones to prevent reboot when phone rings!

I have no idea why your simcard can't detected. Did you try reboot or replacing the simcard?! I think you do it! Hope that the .zip file don't have this problem!

Hi, thanks for this. I've just installed it. Whats wrong with wifi? its showing an "error" message and its not finding any network. Also, are GAPPS included ?

Could you tell us what did you do to fix SDcard problem to fix another roms because I really like IceDroid
Thanks

The simplest way is that use 4zroot.apk for unroot-reroot the device!

thanks a lot! and what's the reason for the boot problem? do you know it?

So, just load it up, click unroot then reboot, then run again and chose reroot?

for me it gives force closes and system is totally messed after unroot and i'm not able to reroot...
but boot works with sdcard inserted...

Just like me
Wifi doesn't work anymore

what kind of crap you posted attisa didn't you tried it before?
but solution is near...
wifi is also messed up for me...
EDIT: oh ok i understand this is the mod you did to the rom but i prefer to remove sdcard than to have no su rights and no wifi
but pretty good the solution is near
you only should mentioned the problems more clearly and earlier...

I think all of these problems are as result of shell rooting
If there is a way to could full root the NAND roms, all problems will gone (missed call reboot, SDcard, wifi, ...)

If it ok I share tasker and it's settings
What are the Phone Offhook and Phone Idle ?

Sorry OP, but i have to close this. Next time, do not include paid software in your release..

[XOLEW][Xolo A500S][Custom]ROM

Dear XDA community users and Xolo A500s owners,
I found that we don't have a dedicated thread for this phone,thus starting a new one with some of my contributions.
NOTE: Never use the FLASHTOOL (any version) for A500s as it bricks the device since the preloader.bin file from stock rom also corrupts the rom in case you need to restore. :laugh::laugh:
Flash CWM or unbrick A500s with SP flash tool procedure
1) Extract the attached file on your computer (link)
2) Download xolo drivers from here (link)
3) Shutdown your phone and remove battery
4) Open SpFlash tool with admin priviledges and click next to scatter file to choose the MT6572 one from the downloaded folder
5) The tool will pick and check preloader.bin automatically and remaining ones will be unchecked (Select preloader.bin only if your device is bricked if its not and you only need to have cwm installed proceed to step 6)
6) To install CWM now double click on boot and recovery image and point to the downloaded folder to select boot_patch and recovery_patch accordingly (Remember to check it)
7)Now click Download and connect the phone via usb to computer (During this process your PC will show unknown device so in order to install device drives download xolo drivers and choose to select the inf file and it will get installed).Remove USB once and ensure download is clicked prior and then usb cable is inserted to PC.
8) The process will begin and a green circle saying ok will be displayed and thus the flashing is successful.
9) Now disconnect the device and put in battery and hold power and volume up key to sucesfully boot into CWM and there by unbrick your device...
10) Then you can install any custom rom created by other developers.
Note: If you wish to load complete stock rom for Xolo A500s download the stock rom from the links ABTri has posted in his forum and replace the preloader.bin with the attached one. This will restore your ROM to factory default with stock recovery.
To begin with i present you the stock deodexed cwm rom for our own Xolo A500s phone.
Steps:
1) Root your phone with framaroot (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2293503&d=1380569629)
2) Install MTKdroidTools 2.4.8 from here (http://dfiles.eu/files/fmnok7ke7)
Download and run the MTKdroidTools.exe (Note enable usb debugging on your phone and grant root access from the mtkdroid app to access your phone)
Then backup your existing rom by clicking on root ,backup,recovery tab and backup. this will back up your entire stock rom in case you want to revert.
3) For CWM install click on Recovery and boot and choose the option "To choose the boot.img file" and then select your stock boot.img file which u backed up. Next it will patch it with CWM autoinstaller just click yes and ok and the device will reboot. Woola you now have a working CWM to proceed.
Steps to install the deodexed rom
1) Boot into CWM recovery and download the stock deodex rom from here (http://www.toobigtosend.net/download/279913c4-3bd3-11e3-a7f9-005056ac53f8/)
2) Copy the downloaded rom to the sd card--> clockwordmod -> backup folder
3) Say restore and navigate to the cwmbackup folder and select it
4) Clear Dalvik cache and cache partition
Thats its reboot and you are on deodexed rom..
More download links will be available shortly Stay tuned..
This is the start of my development so i need more ideas on what can be included additionally.
And yes use the thank meter if you want to appreciate the work
Added new download link.

Still, I was not able to flash this rom as it said "md5 mismatch!" While trying to flash it through cwm.. I hope u find a solution to this and share with us ASAP or just tell me if I am doing something wrong...

To begin with i present you the stock deodexed cwm rom for our own Xolo A500s phone.
Steps:
1) Root your phone with framaroot (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2293503&d=1380569629)
2) Install MTKdroidTools 2.4.8 from here (http://dfiles.eu/files/fmnok7ke7)
Download and run the MTKdroidTools.exe (Note enable usb debugging on your phone and grant root access from the mtkdroid app to access your phone)
Then backup your existing rom by clicking on root ,backup,recovery tab and backup. this will back up your entire stock rom in case you want to revert.
3) For CWM install click on Recovery and boot and choose the option "To choose the boot.img file" and then select your stock boot.img file which u backed up. Next it will patch it with CWM autoinstaller just click yes and ok and the device will reboot. Woola you now have a working CWM to proceed.
Steps to install the deodexed rom
1) Boot into CWM recovery and download the stock deodex rom from here (http://www.toobigtosend.net/download/279913c4-3bd3-11e3-a7f9-005056ac53f8/)
2) Copy the downloaded rom to the sd card--> clockwordmod -> backup folder
3) Say restore and navigate to the cwmbackup folder and select it
4) Clear Dalvik cache and cache partition
Thats its reboot and you are on deodexed rom..
More download links will be available shortly Stay tuned..
This is the start of my development so i need more ideas on what can be included additionally.
And yes use the thank meter if you want to appreciate the work
Added new download link.

Good news everyone, so the rom is finally here!!
DOWNLOAD LINK ROM v1
Changelog v1:
1) Stock de-odexed & zipaligned based on 4.2.2
2) Removed all bloatwares which includes Xolo specific apps,google +, clock,taalk,themes,stock keyboard ,music etc
3)Added Xperia mod keyboard,inverted playstore,sms and calendar app.
4)Bravia mod is attached although i didnt see much difference
5)Viper audio added and works smooth.
6)Native Kitkat apps like google now,search and laucher added.
7)Font change to incorporate the new kitkat roboto
8)Included ES file explorer
Do not install the hangout from playstore as it may crash since the framework is updated to support 4.4.I will post the updated hangout app for leaked 4.4
How to install
1) Root your phone as mentioned above and have CWM installed
2) Copy the rom in \sdcard and then clear/wipe data cache and dalvik cache. Format system also
3) Go to mounts and storage and ensure to see /system is mounted (unmount system is what we want to see on cwm menu)
4) Select install from sdcard and navigate through the zip and install it.
First boot may take some time to install and thats it the rom is up.
Enjoy and share your experience to make this development ongoing

Downloaded the Rom..
>Nice UI
>Xperia keyboard is better den stock one
>File manager is removed.
>Installed Apps (Super SU, ES File explorer, Facebook r not updated to latest version)
>Phone is smoother (due to deodexing/ZIPaligning i think)
>Not many extra tweaks / Vanila OS
> Play store is different. I think it may be of kitkat / or it may be modded.
In settings / display, theme is not working (FC)

[Q]How to downgrade from KitKat to JellyBean

Hi Guys,
So right now Im using CarbonRom with android version 4.4.4 on 9070P, but since its unstable and freezes a lot, I would like to return on more stable version of Jelly Bean (4.3 maybe?!). Is there a guide how is this possible?
All I see are guides from reverting Jelly Bean to Gingerbread...
Thanks :good:

Just flash stock rom (JB) with odin.
But don't forget to backup your data and do a nandroid backup (just in case ... )

Thanks for answering!
So the correct process would be Carbon Kitkat->stock rom 4.1.2->new rom (cyanogenmod 10.1 for example).
So I cannot skip the original rom part?

EDIT: you were fast huh.

Thanks a bunch!
Almost perfect,
I installed
1)cm-10.1-20131116-UNOFFICIAL-janice
2)gapps-jb-20130812-signed
and
3)9070PJBlibteefolder (since I have P model)
Almost everything works except SD card! With this app https:// play.google. com/store/apps/details?id=in.zatta.USB_switch I managed to connect to the computer, but im unable to access external storage from phone, "Storage" menu crashes to home screen, file explorer doesent detect sdcard and gallery says no external card. All else seems o.k. How can I fix this?
I add that apps install fine to SDcard, usb storage works no problem as well, mounting manually in terminal game me no permission flags.

You tried to enable usb debugging in Settings > Developer options ? If developer options doesn't show up, go to Settings > About phone and tap build number fast 10 times. Enable usb debugging and try to connect to computer without that app. You can change between MTP or others in notification bar (if you get notificatiom when you connect phone) or by going to Settings > Storage and press menu button and choose usb storage mode.
Also, did you try to put off sdcard and put it on again?

OK, not so perfect after all:
NO Call audio- I cant hear other persons, they cant hear me. Phone rings as usual.
Only reference I found was this- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49452037&postcount=3697
but links are dead.
Yes, I tried your suggested method, and it connects to PC w/o that app OK. I can mount/unmount SDcard no problems, also another file explorer shows SDcard contents without a hitch, lets me install apps and play files from it, but STORAGE menu from settings is still off limits, even is no SDcard is present in the phone- results in crash to home screen.
I guess thanks to new root explorer, gallery works, so I guess I could manage without that menu as well.

Did you try to install a dialer from google play and see if is working? If i remember correctly, we had to replace the phone.apk.

I downloaded random dialer from google play "truedialer" I think, and all it changed, was the interface, i did setup this as the main dialer, but calls were still made using old dialer and hence no change.
