[Q] how to update Omnirom? - Omni Q&A

Hi guys,
first of all i searched the internet , but i didnt found anything helpful to me. Secondly, im sorry for my bad english ;D
My Problem:
I´am with omnirom on my S3 (GT9300) for 3 days now. Yesterday it started to notify my about an software update. If i agree, it just reboot into TWRP... but at this point i have now idea how to continue.... do i have to install something from the sd card? Does someone got a guide for me?
How often do u guys update ur phones? I saw that there are quite a lot of updates... I preffer a few biggerupdates( but that doesnt really matter )
thanks for helping me ;D

There is an issue with Opendelta, so that's why it just goes into recovery instead of applying the update.
While it gets fixed, you need to:
_ once in TWRP, click on Install
_ navigate to /sdcard/Opendelta
_ select the nightly ZIP file.
_ on the next screen, uncheck the zip verification box.
_ swipe to install the update.
_ click on wipe dalvik/cache
_ reboot system

Secure should also be working at this point - if it doesn't, you're probably running an old version of TWRP that needs updating.

'Kay, will try again tommorow with secure option ON.

Checked with the latest nightly, and we're back to no automatic install of the update, no matter if secure mode is on or off...
Not sure of which version of TWRP Opendelta is expecting, but i'm using v2.6.3.0, which is the latest available for the Oppo find 5.
The reason for the install failing is always the same : zip signature verification.

UPDATE:
I just Flashed TWRP v2.6.3.1 (just came out) for my Oppo find 5, checked secure mode = ON, checked for new update, tapped on install now, and...
Worked like a charm!

I have looked again . and i cant seem to find it -.- it baffels me how when im trying to look for something i can never find it . but when im NOT looking for hit , i find it . I promise i will find it again . I remember it was in a location i wasnt expecting . also , im wondering if kernel version plays a part in this mysterious file . I swear i'll find it if its the last thing i do xP i even remembering there is a file which allows one to have the buttons light up each time the screen is touched .
Hey i found the file , yeah while looking for something else xP . But i found it and confirmed it works on filkret kernels and dorimanx kernels . I am pretty sure it works on any android device as my brothers phone had this file as well .
So what i did for the community , was i created several init.d scripts . I then placed these scripts inside a flashable zip file . instructions are below.
Install instructions:
1. Download the attached zip file.
2. Open or extract the newly downloaded zip file.
3. Select whichever time delay you want.
4. Copy to the ROOT of your sdcard.
5. Boot into recovery mode.
6. Choose "Install zip from sdcard".
7. Select "Choose zip file".
8. Select the time delay file you copied earlier.
9. Reboot and enjoy.
Now i created a bunch of them from the same file and didnt test every single file . If it doesnt work attach the zip file you used in recover stating your issues and i will get back to you
Can't get 25 sec to work... hmmm
Followed instructions and only 13 sec? Just wondering if it can stay on as long as my screen is on?
Tried 30 and still 13 sec. I'm using kernal 2.6.32.15_tytung_ICS_r1 [email protected] #230

yeah i realised i had a permissions error . So i fixed the updater script to change the permissions of the init.d file and they work now . but yes if your screen is timed to shut off after 15 seconds , your button lights will shut off as well . but here try the newly updated scripts . i made a thread for itself . figured maby more people will want it . so here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23219193&postcount=1

You have to install twrp to install cm10.1. First download goo manager from the market then open app go to top right a press button and press install the script that will install twrp then it will reboot the tablet into recovery mode.
Backup ROM
Factory reset
Wipe cache
Then install ROM then gapps then press reboot
Post in Q/S next time Thanks

YOu might be better served with the redemption ROM, have you tried that. Its up to 4.1.2 and everything is working properly, good smooth ROM with all the samsung bells and whistles including multi-screen. Not a fan of cyano myself, nothing really gets finished and fully working, usually camera and video - not their fault but I prefer to have a fully working ROM.

I'm currently downloading the Rom you suggested and will see how it works.
Reading up on it sounds pretty stable
So will give feed back

Hi I tried installing Goo but it didn't have a recovery image file for my note N8000 what do you suggest?

Goo Manager wasn't able to find TWRP for me either. I just downloaded and installed it directly from here:

Thanks for that but what I ended up doing after trying to instLl Rom and using cwm and I used the note 2 recovery settings
Well really bad idea. So what happen ws that the note decided to not boot properly. So I had to download recovery cwm recovery. And use Odin to install it on note. Then viola it work. I back up rom and install the rom

Mate, now you've installed CWM, do yourself a favour. Look for the app on here called triangle away. It will reset your flash counter....

how do I do so I have the latest version of clockwork mod.

look for their thread here, or google it, youll find it.

Simple ROM and Device compatibility question

I have a Nexus 4 running on 4.4.2 update base ROM. I've unlocked and rooted my phone, with multiple root tests to be sure. I've also downloaded the Franco kernel. Though its not working, so I assume its cause its a nightly version. From the information I've found those don't always work.
Back to my question though. My devices is a Mako, which goes along with being a Nexus 4 right. So why is it when I downloaded the cyanogenmod mako latest ROM it didn't work? Came up with an error comparing device and product as being mako, and some status 7 thing. I did a restore and now I'm here.
I've tried to install it view clockwork recovery, and from the ROM manager app. Both came up with those errors. Am I doing something wrong?

It looks like you don't have the latest version of cwm on you're phone. Try updating you're CWM to the newest version. Or install twrp recovery ( newest version and try again.
Be warned if you install twrp recovery then you're backup made in cwm recovery wont work should you wish to use it.
Below is a screen shot showing you're problem.
Phone : Nexus 4 /Rom : cataclysm / Kernel : Stock.
Thanks. I updated clockwork and it worked perfectly. Though its extremely annoying that I don't get my apps and data and all that I would normally get when doing a regular Google based ROM. Is there a way to get all that with custom ROMs? Do I just need to do a flash of Google play store or something?

If you flash Gapps immediately after flashing the ROM, it should give you the options to download your apps and system settings during initial setup, if that's what you're asking.

You need to flash gapps package for google apps like playstore, gmail..etc. Link are often given together in the OP of the rom thread.
Excellent. Thank you all. I'll be sure to keep an eye out for those! You've all been a great help.

One more question. Kernels. I know some are ment purely for custom ROMs. But is there a place I can get Kernels for a stock ROM? I haven't decided on a custom ROM yet, but I'd like to tweak this one as much as I can before.

They support both, the exception being with CM kernels.

1. Make sure Play Store is closed.
2. Go to the app settings and remove all data from Play Store.
3. Go into /data/data/ (with a root explorer) and remove any directory com.android.vending.
4. Restart the device after that open Play Store.
Thanks for the help but it didn't work
Anymore solutions?
