Can't install rom manager pro - Wildfire General

Hi everyone I am trying to install rom manager pro but at the end of installation it says not installed any help please
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App

Remove every previous/other version of ROM Manager and then try again.
If you are on a custom ROM with the free version of ROM Manager pre-installed, it will be a system app and you will have to remove by using for example titanium backup.

Have tried the above and it never worked I'm on cm7 latest stable version

Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App

I have downloaded Absolute System Root Tool and installed it on my phone..
Where is the folder where the apps are install so I can remove Rom Manager,Is that how I do it just find the folder its in and delete the apk file..??
If anyone can help I will give you my heart...
EDIT found the folder...Data/App what do i do, delete the com.xxxxrom manager.apk file now then install the premium one..???

Open it and go to system and than app ..in this folder should be the apk and you just delete it
sent from my HTC - jic.

Absolute system root tools has a tab called app management, tap that and it will list every app installed (even system app) then find rom manager and touch it, choose uninstall app and data.
I'm pretty sure to use rom manager pro you need the free version installed too though......

Does Absolute system root tools needs S-OFF?

I don't want to diss anyone's development relating to 'Rom Manager', but I read somewhere on another forum (I forget where), that Rom Manager isn't a safe program, and can actually end up bricking your phone if you download custom ROMS with it. Can anyone verify this please?
Cheers, Al

In my experience it works fine with the wildfire, and everything included does what its supposed to do.
I'm not sure if it can hard brick a device as it only shows things relevant to the device you're using which should mostly have been tested before being uploaded but it certainly can cause a soft brick, I know this from experience on my s2, I rebooted into recovery through rom manager only to get stuck at the splash screen and then couldn't reboot into my rom. I didn't panic and wipe everything through Odin but sat down for 5 to think of possible reasons why it could have happened then it dawned on me that on an s2, clockwork mod recovery is built into the custom kernel because we don't have a separate recovery partition so the flashing of a temp cwm from from manager could have wiped the kernel partition. That was my theory and I was correct after flashing the kernel again all was fine.
The wildfire has a recovery partition so cwm is installed permanently on its own partition independent of everything else so this soft brick problem some of us suffer from shouldn't affect you. If anything else goes wrong, say flashing a broken rom I'd say that's partly the roms fault for being broken but mostly your own fault for not researching exactly what it was you're flashing beforehand.
Anyways everything works fine for wildfire so don't worry........

Well, I haven't heard or read such things and I would be really surprised if the pro version of an app developed by Clockworkmod, one of the leaders in Android development, would be unsafe
But to explain how such rumours possibly may come up: flashing a phone's ROM is not the same as installing a new operating system or software on a PC. In theory every flash you do has a final risk to brick your phone. Usually this won't happen too often and many people e.g. here @XDA flash a new ROM daily without having big issues.
I don't know many people who have a pro version of ROM Manager installed. But I guess this has nothing to do with not trusting the software but with the fact that most people who are used to flash new ROMs simply don't need it
I'd say people who are afraid of bricking their phones but can't resist to try out new ROMs more likely would buy this pro version - and in the end they might become too lazy with flashing new ROMs here and there and of course this might also end up with bricking their phone sometimes
Just my 0.02$

Yeh the actual app itself is perfectly fine at doing what its supposed to do, its my phone and others that have the problem which can cause a soft brick through the app. I hadn't used it for months till then as I much prefer just getting all my stuff from here.....

lol - yes I'm definitely a bit jealous from time to time and I've thought a lot to buy myself a more sophisticated phone - and I will definitely do that sooner or later - but for the moment I always start laughing when people around me start unpacking their 5-600 Euro phones while I'm carrying mine in my hip pocket all the time... But in the end I won't be able to resist anymore - I know...

Not sure if it's the version that comes with ParanoidAndroid, but ROM Manager it put a file called .nomedia onto the root of my sdcard which caused media apps to not search for media files >_<
When I disabled it and rebooted I could see photos and music files normally.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

Yeh, some people are complaining in our thread about it too. Don't think anyone has narrowed it down to rom manager causing the missing media yet though. It didn't happen on mine but I've gone back to ics as I started getting massive battery drain, 1% every 2 minutes with screen on. I disabled and deleted all the junk turned sync, haptic feedback, media sync etc etc off brightness was low and no apps except the bare minimum but still if my screen was on I could only get 2-2½ hrs screen time before my battery was flat. On ics today I've already had nearly 5 hrs screen time and still have 40% left.

[Q] Kernal and O/C

Oh so what exactly is a Kernal and Over clocking?

Click to expand...

The Kernal is the VERY core of the Luiux system. It's the heart if you will. It is boss, what you tell it to do, it does. for the good and for the bad. Rooting gives you direct access to the Kernal, called "SU" Super User Access, or in temp. access "sudo" but that's a different story.
This comic explains it a little.

Over-clocking is making the processor work faster than it was designed to work. so our baseline is 1.0Ghrz. With a Kernal that allows for overclocking we can get to speeds like 1.5Ghrz or anywhere in between. gives a smoother, faster overall experience.
OK , so is it worth putting on the phone? Im using stock sense for now then Im going to switch to iced. I jusst cant seem to stick to the other roms. So how would I put a different kerna; and o/c.

Iced Glacier may have an overclocked Kernal already installed into the ROM. I do not know much about Iced Glacier. You'd have to check out that thread.

Cyanogen is a pure AOSP ROM, it doesn't have many bells and whistles and it's not "prettied up" to make it appealing. It's bare bones vanilla android. Like what the Nexus Line and the G2 use.
I have nothing against Iced Glacier, It's a good ROM that is turning some impressive numbers. However i personally prefer the sock look and feel of android.
im thinking of trying it out, anything special I need to know or add?

Not Really. Zinx has done an AMAZING job with this ROM. Just follow their wiki-page and you'll be good to go. It's easy to understand and very straight forward.
just make sure to do a nandroid backup of your current ROM. And save it on the SDcard and on another means of media. You don't want something to go south and not be able to get your phone back to a "stock look".
yeah I know, ive tried eVil HD and Z and its juss not my taste.

To carry applications and data over use Titanium Backup, you can get by with the free one, but i highly suggest the paid version.
the "google addon" or "GAPPS" is the Google Talk/GMail/Google Maps/Market applications. Those are not "open source" like the ROM is so you have to add those on to the end of flashing a ROM.

Couple of questions
Are you perma-rooted?
do you know if s=on or s=off
have you flashed a custom recovery image?
Android Zoom : Titanium Backup can be found here
Make sure you have a barcode scanner for "androidzoom"
Im perma-rooted, Im s=off
what you mean by flashed a custom recovery image? all I've done is ROMS, mods and font.

Do you have Clockwork ROM Manager? And at the top it says "flash custom recovery image". did you do that?
Sounds like you have if you've done those listed above.

After you wipe and flash cyanogen, flash the GAPPS. That simple .
Sorry for all the question but i don't want to tell you to process "d" and we've skipped a, b, or c.
No problem I understand . So you mind explaining titan better to me, i have it installed.
EDIT: Another question a little off topic.. Can i use any font I want or only those here on the forum?

What you will want to to is at the bottom of Titanium you will see a "got problems". click on it and down load busybox. fairly quick and small footprint protocol deal. What it does is will back up all of your applications to your SD card. So when you wipe > flash ROM > reboot you can use titanium back up to restore everything.
Click on schedules > edit > and make it "back up applications and user data" then click run.
That will back every thing up
Then when you reboot you can : Got problems > download busy box > applications and restore the ones that have a greenish color "M" next to them.
And it's like you never left.
as far as fonts go i recommend using the ones found Here. Or downloading and using the ones in an applications called "root tools".
Thanks, going to give this a shot now

Downloading
I'm downloading this one now to try it out. I have an extra Eris that I got from a guy at work after he switched to the EVO. I got it to fix the cracked faceplate on mine. I've been testing ROMs on the spare one before I flash them to my primary phone. Although the spare one has no data connection, I can still sign in to google through wifi.

BT is finicky, is it not ? What I mean is, in many cases, it can be the other device that's the problem.
Hotspots wont work on our devices right now, if ever, since they don't make drivers for the arm6 processor...

it with my friends phones. i Didnt tested it with some models but I can say that works on all android phones. Test it on your phone and say your opinion.
It may not work on a few of them but it is a small number.
I would ask all potential users on this forum to try out the program and to share their opinions also to share this program with your friends and if there are any problems here to share with other users and me to try help them. :good:

[App] Install recovery by app - Infamous Performance

I have added the Ouya to supported devices to my app - Infamous Performance. Now you don't need to connect to a computer to install a custom recovery. You have to be rooted already! Download app (here or Playstore Link then downolad the recovery.img from here or any other thread (i just renamed OuyaCWMrecovery6.0.3.2.img to recovery.img so the app will find it.) Place recovery on the internal SD (ouya storage) Install the app then scroll to tools. Click on flash recovery then navigate to your recovery.img. and install. It will install and reboot into recovery. Make sure you have a keyboard plugged in before it reboots or you won't be able to navigate in recovery. Last when you reboot out of recovery make sure to disable recovery install (it will ask you to.) Thanks to all the developers who have worked on this device, I always appreciate everyone's hard work. I am kind of retired so I won't be starting any projects on this device. Enjoy!

Looking forward to trying this, I have never completed all the tweaking necessary to customize my OUYA and make it run smoothly. I keep finding old information around the net which makes it difficult, lot of outdated stuff. Thanks!
Not supported?
Hi
The app looks great! I got it to run but when I click the recovery field it says my device is not supported.
I'm currently running stock Ouya OS chupacabra with the current update.
Any ideas on what to do next to get'er running to install CWM recovery?
Thanks
Hmm. I'll have to look at the build.prop for your model. I thought I covered them all. Can you get me a screen shot of what exactly it says? Thanks man.

Ok I should have time to get that tomorrow. But what it says Is: Ouya 1.1 device is not supported.

Are you using the app that is attached or the one from the playstore?

Got the screen shot uploaded. It's attached and not posted in full screen on the thread.
Also, I'm using the apk on this thread and not the one from the play store.

Hey Jamison, I attached the screen shot of what I'm getting.
I installed it the app from the playstore.
If you can fix it, I'll gladly donate.

Hey Jamison,

I'll try changing the build prop info on my Ouya to match whats compatible.
I'll use this guide

Jamison hasn't responded but just gotta be patient, Jamison's probably busy with life stuff of trying to update the app for the Ouya or other Android activity he's involved in.
Am I the only one that got it installed?
Thought I would just update this post instead of posting another. Question for anyone and please keep in mind I am fairly new to Android:
What is supposed to happen when you select 'Override Internal SD Path'?
Should it prompt you for something or does it just do it? I did quite a few searches and came up empty. I know it's probably self explanatory to many but not I. I am finally getting around to testing the functionality of this tool but probably not the best person for it given my limited knowledge at this point. It seems to be working on my Ouya.
I originally posted this becaus I was wondering if anyone has gotten this installed on an Ouya other than I. I came to the Ouya game really late, my primary reason for purchasing it was XBMC and to dive a little deeper into Android. While I have certainly not tested each function available in this tool I was able to get it installed without a problem and the cache cleaner appears to work. I am by no means skilled in the Android OS so there are lots of things I am still learning, not sure I would be able to tell if some of the functions work as I don't understand what they are supposed to do. I love to tweak/tinker, think that's probably common across most of the folks that visit the forums. Between running XBMC on the bedroom tv and having a little platform to play around with Android the Ouya was well worth the $50. I am on a Stock Ouya (rooted) and I used the apk that was attached to this thread, not the one from the Play Store. Just wish everything wasn't so out of date, I always get a little nervous about installing something that hasn't even been discussed in 8 - 12 months. This tool being an exception, thank you Jamison and hoping you continue to develop for these little boxes but fully understand why it would be hard to justify.

I posted a comment asking about a function within the app but have since answered my own questions. I still wonder:
1). Is this wofking for anyone else on an Ouya?
2). Is it somehow 'defunct' at this point or will it be further developed?
Regardless, appreciate the effort Jamison.

I have used it on two Ouya's myself and it worked. What issue are you having? Thanks and sorry for the delay
Which other devices are supported to install recovery or kernels? I'm on htc one x.
I think I have those already. Is that the M7 or M8? I can add devices pretty easily
Doesn't install recovery nor kernels on my one x from your app
Yes. This is because I have to add support for each device. If still interested I can add it

Nexus 7 Fast & Snappy ROM question

Hi There People,
I hope everyone out there in XDA-Land, is safe and well? On a personal level, one of the benefits of the Covid-19 pandemic is the enforced lockdown allowed me to do some much needed decluttering of a mass of old boxes which had old tech in it. After having a good root around I found my old Nexus 7 2012 WiFi model which I had previously rooted and used successfully for years before I started neglecting it for an iPad mini (I know… I know…).
Having been playing around with it for the past 4 days, thinking what I could do with it. I have decided to use it as a desk hub for my google home setup (a home and 2 mini’s), watch YouTube and Netflix vids, plus get lost in Twitter (via the app) from time. The browser I use on it at the moment is InBrowser and that’s just to open links from Twitter. I have installed Spotify and Deezer to stream music via Bluetooth and with Root access apps Stick Mount and Titanium Backup that's it, I've installed nothing else...
There will be no other google apps required such as Maps, Gmail, Play Books/Music/Games etc.
Given the very limited use can anyone advise of a ROM which will help with general responsiveness as the touch screen is slow as f*%k. Navigating menus just makes the whole experience painful, I did take a look at the ROM list and was thinking one of these below, plus the Parrott mod could be the way to breathe new life into it before I toss it in the bin. Current android version is 5.1.1, Kernel version 3.1.10-gf5d7b8b and Clock Work Mod recovery version is 6.0.4.3 but I did wipe out the root access when in recovery I cleared the cache partition in CWM

https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-7/development/rom-viperos-v3-1-1-4-28-2020-t4090363
My only wish is for a fast tablet which will accept app updates, I'm not seeking an android 10 ROM or anything so fancy . It won’t be moving around or be used on Facebook or Instagram or used for heavy browsing or multitasking.
I know asking which is best or fastest is a subjective question predicated on what it the tablet will be used for but I'm hoping for a few "Hey check this out, it might be what you are looking for" responses.
Any advice is warmly received, thanks in advance.
I just found my Nexus 7 in a drawer and I'm doing the same thing, the current ROM is painfully slow, I'll be watching this thread

@Dr Asqueroso as all of the ROM you have mentioned above are based on the same kernel and device configuration they most likely will provide similar performance. It's up to you to choose whether you would like to go with a more simple (AOSP-based) ROM updated with the latest backported security patches or if you prefer additional features.

To be honest @AndDiSa, when you say additional features or security I think of how I will use the Nexus 7 and I can't think of what additional things I would use it for. In my perfect scenario, this is going to save me buying a "Google Home Hub". As it will only be used for streaming music, watching videos and the odd browse on the interweb. Security would be the choice from these options if pressed for an answer but I'm not sure what I'd be securing? Maybe my Deezer playlist (I'm told I have a horrible taste in music).
I have to admit, I haven't investigated what these additional things are as in my mind, my requirements are very basic. The stock ROM I have is slow to the point that I thought the screen was damaged, so I seek a modified ROM where someone much smarter than me has stripped away the none essential allowing an older device such as mine, to run it without crashes and slow response times.

@Jeffdaddy have you seen any ROM's which might be what we are looking for? I followed this guide and disabled all the stock Google apps and saw a little improvement in speed but the screen in respect to touch responsiveness, is still woeful as one would expect under current circumstances.

Hey guys,
I put parrotmod rom on my nexus and I swear it's back to normal. It took me all day because I read a thread saying converting to f2fs file system through TWRP would speed it up tremendously, well, that ended up giving me a boot screen asking for a password, I converted back to Ext4, flashed parrotmod and that gave me a bluetooth shares error which took a couple of hours to figure out. Now I'm back in business.
Search for Parrotmod, it works great!

@Dr Asqueroso @Jeffdaddy if your requirements are fulfilled with a 5.x ROM optimized with Parrotmod that's the most easiest way to you, if you would like to have a Android 7.x ROM with latest security patches, go with Android 7.x AOSP (btw. it includes and optimizes the Parrotmod modifications).

This looks great, I'm intrigued and want try try this, I noticed there's 4200 posts in that thread, I'm willing to do the work but is the #1 post the one eith complete instructions on how to flash for grouper 2012 nexus 7? I'm definitely not an expert and need detailed instructions .
Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk
Now, this is what I'm here for... I did look at your ROM @AndDiSa but wasn't sure if there was something "newer" and "faster" which was being recommended but like @Jeffdaddy says this is a very, very intriguing option. If this can get an 8 year old device behaving like I need it to, I'd be a fool to sniff at it. I'll have a good read of the thread and have a go at installing it. Can you use CWM and the Wugfresh application to install your ROM?
This is great, I flashed to it and it's smooth and snappy however, I don't have the Google play store and I'm unable to add my Google email into it, I thought maybe I didn't flash gapps properly, so I tried it again and got this error, is this the proble? Not having gaps installed?

@Jeffdaddy This is great news... is your screen responding to touch inputs?
Yes, it's running smoothly, I just don't have the Google Apps, I'm trying to read through that other thread to see how I can flash it properly.
Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk
@Jeffdaddy Two possible reasons are coming into my minds:
- Do you have installed the latest TWRP-Recovery for Grouper/Tilapia? If not, this may/will cause issues, so please do an update first
- There is also a chance for a corrupt file system, so you should do a file system check, especially on your /data partition but probably also on /system and /cache
Twrp 3.3.1-0
Possibly corrupt file system? How do I do a file system check?
Thanks for your help
Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk
Unfortunately I am not able to check whether TWRP offers the possibility to do a file system check from the user interface, but in this thread you can find some additional information, too: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ne...ial-pure-nexus-project-layers-t3243943/page37

One final Question: which Gapps did you try to flash? You need to use pico, all other versions are too big.
I posted whatever one that was recommended in the post for grouper, I'll double check though, thanks

That was it! I didn't realize I had to click the button next to pick and had gottem stock. You're a genius

Looks like this will be the one to try then. Is there a simple how to guide for the install process?
