Hi, if this question is already anwered, please lock this thread and redirect me, thanks..
I have a Aurora 4.0 rom, installed on top of stock B512 (as far as I can remember) .
Now, I wanted to try some Jelly Bean goodness, so I tried to update to ICS Official, but I've always failed at STEP2 of the official update procedure. I've read some forums and seen a few advices to firstly go back to the official Gingerbread. Ok, so I've downloaded the B512 (after about 2 hours of googlin and looking for it, if some1 wants it PM me) but the problem is still there - STEP2 of the firware update fails..
sd_update.log (4x this line)
Code:
dload_sd_chk_file_data->dload_sd_chk_ram_data failed!
Someone?thanks

why don't you update your kernel from 2.2 to 2.3? And I think 4.1.2rom is not fluency for our defy . if you have the kernel 2.3,you may update to kitcat~
update your phone . you need pay attention to the following list .
1.Use the software named RSD,the file is sbf ,sbf will change your bl,so, you need to know what's your phone bl;
2.you need to now what's your defy's lens,it's red or green;
3.you need a rom which is .zip some rom don't need to think about the kernel but someone discriminate.
o it's the first time I reply in English,if I say something wrong or you can't understand.please forgive it . haha I have a bad English. and I think I need someone to fix my grammer error。and when i speek english I don't know what I said above。。。
THX for the reply

Android 4.4.4 on Acer A500 Working Partially
I was running ICS 4.03 and installed the 4.4.4 from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2705989
Using Skrilax V9 bootloader and CWM 6.0.4.5.
Omnirom Kitkat loads up fine but cannot restore apps through Titanium Backup and as it reports no Root access.
Also Google Play cannot locate this device but I can log in and see my apps using the stock Browser that was installed.
Made several attempts with Google Android Manager to no avail.
I assume this custom ROM has root access correct? If true, don't understand why Titanium Backup is complaining.
Location is set for Wi-Fi and mobile network to determine location.
So for now cannot restore my apps locally via Titanium Backup until I get to the bottom of the issue.
Your guidance appreciated as well as the work to make this ROM available to such a broad audience.
DISREGARD, I am getting everything working in the light version.
Rom for Acer A500
Hello I am new to the forum and also the modding and not perlo language very well.
I tried to flash the recovery "update-recovery-thor2002ro-rev1.7.3" the "OmniROM-4.4.4-Tegraowners ROM v21" the work went well but sometimes I crash.
Can you tell me what is currently the OmniROM 4.4.4 better and more stable than those in the first page, and if I can flash with the current recovery, (update-recovery-thor2002ro-rev1.7.3), pointing to the steps to do because I lost in the discussion not knowing the language in fact I am using the translator.
thanks

I used the instructions found at the beginning of the 4.4.4 Light version thread as the full version gave me issues. I didn't use the Thor recovery, Skrilax version 9 instead.

Can I install build 8 overtop of build 6? What I mean by that is can I install build 8 without wipeing data in CWM because I already have build 6 installed and I have the same ROM so can I?
Loss of Root

flickering screen with Facebook?????
I installed v6 of omni ROM on my Acer a500, and just updated to the newest version. Both ROMs are am some and smooth, but I have just one issue when I have Facebook open for a few minutes, I go to scroll down then the screen starts to flicker and I can't do anything. And to use it again I have to reboot otherwise I just get a black screen. It happens on both versions of the ROM, anyone else have this issue???. Thanks for any replies
Hello , I am trying to flash this rom on my Acer a500 and I get this error :

Could anyone help me with this issue?
Lockups
yeah i have been having a few issues along the same lines, i think its more to do with disk 'bandwidth' usage than the cpu. With low data throughput apps running it will run for days without issue, start downloading at 500kB/s (or sometimes as little as 370kB/s) and do some other disk intensive task and pop its gone! this could be biased a bit by my experience of it as i quite often use the A500 to dl things or load it up with stuff before a journey etc.. have also had it get stuck in deep sleep modes but think thats the disk issue as well...
Could it be overfilling it disk buffers or something? not much experience with android hardware but this tablets a bit old now and new roms may be expecting the inbuilt storage to be performing a little faster than the a500's can deal with
Also have tried all the available i/o schedulers and none seem to have and noticeable difference in time between hangs, although without bothering to setup proper test conditions i cant really say much really
oops was meant to be in reply to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60787006&postcount=293 meh....
LNX partition not loading?
Hello and sorry if it's an easy question but it's my first time trying to install roms. I've followed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2705989 to install OmniRom 4.4.4 on my iconia A500. I installed Skrilax bootloader V9 and then CWM 6.0.4.5 on my device and up to now everything worked well. I then put OmniRom 4.4.4 build 8 and gapp pico on a micro sd card, wiped data using CWM then install the rom (from /storage/sdcard1) then installed the gapp (also from /storage/sdcard1), then wiped cache partition and rebooted. I've been stuck on the Skrylax "booting android image from LNX partition" for half an hour now... Where did I make a mistake?

Using TWRP-2.6.3.0 to install Omni 4.4.4
Hi all,
Just want to know if it does matter to use TWRP-2.6.3.0 (instead of 2.6.3.1) to install Omni 4.4.4...???
Anyway, the installation went through w/out any issue. I'm using my revived Acer-A500 (was bricked for almost 2 yrs).
W/out this XDA-Dev's great resource, I would not be able to revive my bricked Acer-A500 & running Omni 4.4.4 (CM-11) now.
Many thanks to everyone on the board, especially, Skrilax, blackthund3r, civato & all the great XDA-Dev team...!!!
Cheers,
JKS
Hi, I am new to Android upgrade. I know only OTA upgrade in phone. Can any one please explain me step by step instructions to upgrade my Storm. It keeps saying Google apps stopped working, and many other error with google. Now I am unable to use settings -> Apps . As soon as I open chrome or settings->apps it says stopped working. So, I made my mind to upgrade to any stable version if any updated. I have found that there is CM13 available. But, do not know what has to be done. As some where I read to install kernal / TWRP / image ,etc. But, I am really not Android Savy and do not know all these terms or exactly what I should do and what I have to do. Please Please give me step by step complete instruction what I have to download and how I can update my Storm with CM13. One more question is CM13 and Android 6.0 "Marshmallow" both same? This might be very dump question.
Hi Guys! So, let me explain.
I'm new to this whole thing about rom porting and i really wanted to expand the library for my Moto G4 Play, because i always wanted to channge the roms and play with the phones a littlebit, but the pones i used didn't have support.
So, i like Pac Man Rom (and im sad that is outdated) and i wanted to port it to the Moto G4 Play because i didn't saw it anywhere.
In the first time, i got a build and i was euphoric to install it but when i got it on the internal memory and tried to install it, it gived me the following error:
Error 7: "System partition have unexpected OTA after update"
Please, if you can help me solve this problem and solve it that would be awesome.
Im going to upload the rom zip so you can play and tell me what's happening.
The android version is 6.0.1
Base rom: Lineage 13
Moto G4 Play (Harpia)
Test Phone: Moto G4 Play XT1607
I can't paste the link on the thread so to download it you can dm me on twitter or in xda and i will send you the link.
Sorry!
Thanks!
