[Q] how to uninstall itsmagic

I cant update to 3.1. itsmagic is changing my file checksum... how can I remove this?
search function was unavailable, so please spare me the "first read the forum rules" if the topic was already treated elsewhere
thanks,
Comicfan

itsmagic only changes something if you execute it manually.
To uninstall it you have to remove the itsmagic binary.
Edit: usually itsmagic is installed on /data, so it shouldn't affect the OTA.
Instead look at /cache/recovery for the error log to find out what caused the problem

thanks for your quick reply!
Itsmagic appears in my "/cache/recovery/last log" right before the tab refuses to accept my update file, so I assume it has something to do with it... I reinstalled all stock apps and tried other possible solutions, this is the only thing left i can think about that prevents the tablet from accepting the update.
I have no idea how to delete this binary, or where to find it... some more help would be greatly appreciated.

Please attach the log. There is probably another reason for the failure of your OTA.

it tricks the bootloader to run any kernel you want.
Thx @Acer for making this so easy.. why did you say the BL is locked if it isn't?

weather you have it's magic installed on your tablet is irrelevent. Your running the update via CWM mod and CWM runs itsmagic automatically.
I may be way off base, but here's my 2 cents.. if i'm wrong, sorry..
It's seems to be failing on checking the signature of the update.zip file.. It appears that this is an OTA update (downloaded automatically to your tablet) trying install via clockworkmod recovery. I don't think that will work.
I think you need to do one of these (not both)
Install your stock recovery and try the OTA again
or
Take that update.zip (after it downloads) and XOR it (see the update.zip decrypter thread) and extract the update.zip within it and use that with clockworkmod.

Hello, I think you are right. I went back to stock, but now there seems to be a hero of sparta - related problem, but its re-installed... I played it 2 mins ago... cant find the problem.
the positive thing is my error message when my screen freezes after reboot: now its only an orange danger triangle, instead of a red one

Not sure about the cache errors, but it seems it's unable to find /system/app/HeroOfSparta.apk. Is it there? or is it in /data/app instead. It must be in /system/app for the update to work.

[Q] ota update fails 4.010.10

My update keeps failing 4.010.07 to 4.010.10. I have all my original apps installed of course and unroot using iconiaroot1.3.apk then i restart. Go to start the update it restarts then im stuck with an orange triangle symbol. I have even taken out the sd card reading that some people have tried that. I installed 4.010.07 using cwm, not sure if that matters or not. would be nice if i can update without wiping my device like i had to do when i use cwm. im going to post my long from /cache/recovery/last_log. I think the problem has something to do with itsmagic but not sure.

p.s. i think the problem is because i used cwm to get 3.1 i dont have a stock bootloader? so my question now is how do i get a stock bootloader. i would like to do future ota updates because its simpler.

download iconia recovery app from market, has an option to flash the stock recovery as well....

I could try that but it gives the update number for android 3.01 i belive it lists update rom 1.141.7. I dont want to do that i belive.

did you modify the wpa supplicant file or the email.wpk? you'll have to restore the originals before you can update.

of u know what I did modify the wpa file ill have to change that and try it thanks for reminding me.
P.s. tried that and it still failed.

No, not bad partitions, just using ROM Manager. Boot to CWM and flash manually.

I should have mentioned I tried both ways, same error.

It is not saying bad partition, it is saying device is busy. I would suggest you update to a newer version of CWM. Both v5.5.0.4 and v6.0.1.2 are available on my tips thread linked in my signature. Or you could use TWRP.

Thanks for your efforts leapinlar. Turns out it was a bad SD Micro card... Once replaced everything was fine.

Flash RUU via ADB?

MyTouch 4g wont boot into Hboot (even via command from adb) and wont flash anything via recovery. Tried to adb flash new recovery (thinking it was possibly a corrupted recovery) but wont do that either. Strangest thing is the phone will boot up just fine into the ROM (Running CM7 2.3.7 nightly). My question is, is it possible to flash RUU via adb? Since I cant get into bootloader not really possible to it via fastboot.

So not sure if this is going to work, but I just found this.
Remove battery and hold volume up & down, then insert battery holding volume down then press power on.

Going to rename RUU to upgrade and see where it gets me.
I guess no one is familiar with my issue, not replys to my previous post. So going to try and figure it out myself, but advice would be nice.

Rename it to PD15IMG.zip. That's what the bootloader looks for.
Ordered my Nexus 4 on the 13th. Still waiting.

I had one named PD15IMG and another named update, and nothing happened for 30 mins. I know this phone isnt brick, because it works in the ROM. I just cant get to any of the lower lvl stuff. You have any other recommendations?

Make sure the open to Hide extensions for known files types" is disabled. Otherwise the file might be named "PD15IMG.zip.zip." That gets a lot of people.

So I dont know if I made a step forward or backward now. I went back to some basics, downloaded the LG support Tool, and used it to do an upgrade. It successfully upgraded, however now the phone bootloops at tmobile splash and I still cant access bootloader. This phone has become so frustrating.
I am only trying to fix it so I can use it as a backup when I am tweaking on my other phones.
I have reached a deadend, I have researched for almost 4 days on how to fix the phone. The only other method I have found is this one:
http://forums.acsyndicate.net/showt...-to-update-your-LG-mytouch-4g-(E739)-manually
and they have links that are broken for the software and I havent been able to find other downloads. So Im hoping someone has some insight here, cause Im seriously thinking of throwing this damn thing away.

[everything edited out - OP doesn't have this phone at all, and the info in this forum is irrelevant]

Wait, you have an LG myTouch? This is the HTC myTouch 4G forum. No wonder I have no clue what you're talking about.

Damn, you have a sharp eye! Just checked and indeed he's not talking about a Glacier - E739 is LG MyTouch 4G.
OP, in this case nothing written on this forum helps you in any way. You have a completely different phone, and should look at different forums. Here's the thread that might help:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1755987
In any case, just to answer your question in the thread title: no, ADB can't be used for flashing RUU in any phone and in any condition. ADB daemon is running on the phone only when kernel has finished and Android is booting, and you can't upgrade something that is already running.

I definately am not a pro at this, I just have tech background so I can get around fairly well with it. I didnt know there was a difference. I knew I had a e739 but I didnt think it different much from the HTC mytouch. Now I know.
So I havnet done anything else since last night, the phone still bootloops at Tmobile splash screen and wont boot into bootloader. So whats next? Any insight?

Yes. There are 314 pages in that thread and a bunch of guys there with the phone. Ask them.

It hard for us to help you out as we aren't familiar with your phone and LG and HTC are totally different hardware wise.

[Q] ZTE Blade 2 - Bricked ? Or something

MOST PROBABLY INTERNAL WIPE
So, hey guys. And yes, I am not unique, probably many people had this problem but I don't even know how to describe the problem.
So the thing is, today, I wanted to erase my backups, since everytime I tried to install a custom ROM with ROM Manager, it always failed with wierd erros and everytime I tried, I did backup. So I considered myself smart and that I won't happen anything, so when I booted CWM-Recovery(v4.0.1.5), I erased ALL possible. Any place I saw "delete/format/wipe". I did data/factory reset, cache partition, format boot/data/system/cache/sd-card and sd-ext(have no idea what that is).
I did a reboot and gues what happened ? The image froze with the image operator and the red light on, no blinking, nothing.
I tried then to find a solution, download ROM, do fastboot flash recovery recovery.img, adb boot recovery.... Tried to install ROM or newer version of CWM and it just doesn't allow me to install ANYTHING. Always gives me freaking errors, and not to mention that I can't connect directly with "mount USB storage". And now, can't get into FTM mode.
I searched for ODIN solution, for restoring stock ROM, to flash and what-so-ever, it all failed. So, here I am, and asking you politely, please can you guys help me ?
www(dot)omgwtfimages(dot)com/uploads/286(dot)jpg - Check the image please.

Can anyone help ?
tried this method http://www.modaco.com/topic/339048-guide-flashing-firmware-to-bladelibra-via-windows/ but not luck flashing the restore_stock_recovery.zip
