I did do that, first i got a status 4 error, so i removed the .txt. now i get a status 7 Got other roms to work just not PACMAN, wierd!
This has happened to me when trying to flash HellFire 4.3.x; try replacing the updater-script from the PAC-Man ROM you're trying to flash with one from another ROM you have successfully flashed, just make sure it is also a 4.3.x based ROM. Just open both ROM's and drag the working updater-script over to the PAC-Man ROM. Basically, the updater-scripts are the same across Android builds except for the visuals some devs include at the beginning (it will show up as "ui print..." right after the assert lines, and is just for looks, has nothing to do with the actual flashing of the ROM). You can actually just modify one "master copy" and keep it on your desktop for use in this same manner whenever you download a new ROM-just drag and drop!
I have taken out the assert lines and installed the CyanFox rom(can't link cause I'm new here). I have philz installed too. I'm stuck in a bootloop, because my phone keeps saying there is a UID mismatch. I don't know how to fix this. I had previously used cwm before I found this guide, so I reinstalled it and fixed permissions, but that didn't do anything. I've also wiped dalvik cache and the "normal" cache, which has not done anything either. I've reinstalled philz and I do not know what to do. Specifically it is saying: "System UIDs Inconsistent: You need to wipe data partition or your device will be unstable." and then it reboots. Can anyone help me?
Did you do the full wipe in Philz? It is called "Clean to install new ROM." Do it twice just to be sure. Then flash Cyanfox. I flashed that one last night so I know it will boot. Let me know.
Actually, I went back to the original rom file and changed the asserts, instead of deleting them and the rom worked . Now I nus tneed to figure out the APN settings, cause 4g is not working.
Good deal on getting it running! Have you flashed one of MopedRyder's APN fixes? That should be your next step if you haven't, see OP for a link.
Ya, I'm about to flash one of the fixes right now. Sucks that I have to choose between LTE or MMS both ways, but I think I'll go with mms both ways.
Check out some of the discussion towards the end of my CM thread, several members seem to have figured out how to get LTE and MMS working using Hangouts as the default SMS app. I don't have LTE in my area (just checked the Sprint coverage map today and the entire Rocky Mountain region seems to be just one big blank spot as far as Sprint is concerned, so frustrating!) so I can't be of much help there, I will say that I have had zero problems sending and receiving MMS with Hangouts on KitKat, but once again, everything is 3G for me when not on home WiFi.
For sure, no problem! Looks like my friends iMaYG and ssethv have managed to find the correct combination, their responses are on the last page of the thread. My CyanogenMod Thread
Nope, just flash away! It never hurts to wipe just cache and Dalvik if you desire though. Additionally, to get into the APN's once the ROM is up and running, you need to use the Voice Dialler app, open it and say "Open APN" slowly and clearly. Once you are up and running in terms of all fixes and mods and tweaks and customization, however, definitely make a backup; you can never be too safe when it comes to having backups on hand!
On 4.4.x it should bring up a dialog box and then press "Open APN's" it should be the only option available if Google understood your voice request. Saying "Edit APN" works as well.
I don't know about other launchers, but on Nova you can also set up a shortcut to the APN's if you want: Long press screen Choose "Shortcuts" Choose "Activities" Choose "Settings" Choose "APNs" There will now be a shortcut icon on your home screen.
Well, 3g and mms are working, so it doesn't seem like I need to change APN settings. If I decide to switch to the 4g fix, how do I disable the 3g/mms fix or do i just flash the new fix?
I would assume wipe cache and Dalvik, then just flash that fix, it should override the other one. Can't say for sure because I have no LTE so have only ever needed the 3G/MMS fix, but probably a safe guess based on the nature of flashing these types of .zip files.
Those of you who are dependent on Titanium Backup like I am, stay away from the 12/27 update. It will force close TB every time you try to select an app. I had to restore a ROM nandroid from yesterday, open Play Store as soon as restore finished, and uncheck the option to automatically update all apps so that the previous, working version of TB would stay in place as long as I didn't manually update. Tons of negative, one-star reviews popping up on Play Store, so hopefully the team at Titanium Track will fix this ASAP or at least revert the previous version. Just a heads up. I think I am going to leave automatic updating off for the foreseeable future anyway now, lesson learned!
First, thank you for all of the great information! I'm currently running jdsingle's [ROM][MK5][STOCK][ODEXED]- Virgin Mobile/Boost Mobile and would like to try Carbon. Do I need to wipe cache/dalvik and will I need to flash a GApps package?
Great choice on using JD's ROM for stock purposes, and also great choice on wanting to try Carbon. If you have read the OP, which I assume, then I highly recommend Philz Touch Recovery for starters. You will want to do the full wipe, as you are changing ROM's completely. There is also a world of difference going from TouchWiz to AOSP, so that just a wipe of cache and Dalvik will not leave your phone in proper condition to change over. In Philz, the wipe option you want is called "Clean to install new ROM." I used Carbon almost exclusively, except for testing out other ROM's, for all of October and November, prior to the release of KitKat, and absolutely love it. The last build I was using was from November 8, 2013, and it was solid. You will also need GApps, this will be the case for any AOSP ROM; make sure you select GApps for 4.3.x, as other versions, such as 4.4.x, won't be compatible. If you are not comfortable yet with modifying a Sprint ROM to flash, I can PM you a copy of Carbon I modified for personal use. I can also upload the correct GApps if you want, otherwise just follow the link I posted in part two of this tutorial for the Paranoid Android GApps packages, they aren't maintaining the 4.3.x version anymore, but it is still available to download. Good luck!
Thanks for your response and assistance. I'm currentyu using Philz and will wipe per your instructions. I 'll also refer to previous post for the links for Carbon and the 4.3 GApps. Forgot to ask...will I need to flash MK5 or is it included?
Does PhilZ "Clean to install new ROM" all that we need use or should we use it in addition to other wipe options? In other words, does that option also perform all of the other wipes?
