[Q] Update from FRG83D to Gingerbread

Hi,
I just wanted to update manually to Gingerbread.
But I am truly confused with all the version jibber jabber...
My Android version is 2.2.1, Build Number FRG83D and Kernel is 2.6.32.9-g6624e39 [email protected] #1.
My phone is from german Vodafone Company. Maybe it is because of the language? But I do not care about it, use only English anyhow.
Can I update?
Obviously I can not with the just released file, cause I get a "cannot verify".
Or do I have to wait for another file and why?
Thanks!

Do you have Vodafone or Stock Google Android installed? This update works not on the vodafone version.....

You're not even on the latest version of Froyo, of course you won't be able to use the Gingerbread update.

Update to FRG83G with the last link in this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11618364&postcount=947
Direct link to FRG83G (from D) http://android.clients.google.com/p...igned-passion-FRG83G-from-FRG83D.2854b06b.zip

How do I switch to the lates stock version that I can update Gingerbread to?
I thought I updated manually to the latest version before...
I really hate this part of Android
edit: oh thanks to the above, guess I'll try that

it seems to me that you are not on the stock android ROM, but you are on a special vodaphone version of the ROM. if this is true, i highly suggest that you get rid of that ROM. that means you should root your phone, gain superuser acces, and install ROM manager.
ROM manager will now let you easily flash a variety of ROMs, just like an official OTA update, and including the stock ROM. so from ROM manager you could switch to stock if you wish, which would let you upgrade to gingerbread. or you can switch to cyanogen, or any other ROM you see in the list.
by far its the best thing to do.

Okay this are the steps I figured so far, if I follow them will I be able to update to Gingerbread?
Any step I forgot?
- Root with this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=959672 (yeah I'm on ubuntu)
- then I "download the FRG83 system image from http://developer.htc.com and use fastboot to flash over the system and boot images"
- then I run the update the Gingerbread update

That is what I had to do to get mine working...

So you may help me out cause i'm stuck again.
I have rooted via SuperOneClick now, cause the linux one did not work, blame it on eclipse...anyway.
I installed RomManager as suggested above, but there is no FRG83 to choose from.
So i downloaded the FRG83 from HTC and choose that with RomManager. But it does not install, just backups then reboots and nothing changed.
I also tried to do it manually but if i go to fastboot i can not do anything.
There are only Bootloader, Reboot, Reboot Bootloader and Power Down.
I named the downloaded zip (http://dl4.htc.com/RomCode/Source_and_Binaries/signed-passion-img-FRG83_0923.zip), root.zip and placed it in the root of the sd-card.
What am i missing?

I downgraded to stock from my laptop.
You go into fastboot on the device and then on your computer run commands like:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
and
Code:
fastboot flash system system.img
.
Fastboot in this case is used to restore the stock images from your computer to the device.
You then need to re-apply all the updates.

Just flash the full stock Gingerbread ROM from the dev section. Easy peasy.

Hi all,
I have exactly the same problem as DarsVaeda, and also the same specs:
Nexus One (Vodafone NL)
Android version 2.2.1
Build Number FRG83D
Kernel version 2.6.32.9-g6624e39 [email protected] #1
HBOOT-0.35.0017
RADIO 5.12.00.08
I've been trying to find a solution for the problem but trying to update to FRG83G gives me the same error message:
Finding update package…
Opening update package…
Verifying update package…
E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed
installation aborted
if someone has a solution, please post it here

I believe Vodafone tweak their ROMs, so you can't install the update. You will need to revert your phone to complete stock, or root and flash files through a custom recovery, our unlock the bootloader and fastboot flash...

Yep he's right.
I am on gingerbread now.
I rooted with super one click.
Then installed rom manager.
Flash a custom recovery (ie. at the bottom).
Downloaded stock FRG83G from HTC.
Booted into the recovery and installed the rom.
Afterwards I could update to gingerbread.
No downsides yet.
You can also flash the stock gingerbread rom now. Saves you one step.
It's linked here in the forum.

So there is no way around it? if I want Gingerbread on my Nexus I have to root it or wait for Vodafone.
I'm unsure about rooting, never done it before and I'm a noob in this field, but I really, really want the update
If you don't mind, DarsVaeda, and in the light of your success with that method, could you maybe post an even more detailed step by step instructions of how you did it?

Sure.
First of all I lost all data that was not saved remotely. Like SMS or application data from applications that do not remotely store data. Keep that in mind! But it's worth it.
I backup SMS to my google account anyway and delete them after some time from my phone, so I was fine with that.
As far as I know now you do not void your warranty if you root with "SuperOneClick". The root will also be gone after you flashed the rom. On my phone there is only a program called "superuser" left, but it's not usable since the phone is not rooted anymore.
Step by step:
before get all of this:
- get and install the USB Android drivers on your WindowsOS explained here (and download): http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html
- install "RomManager" from the market on your phone
- get "SuperOneClick" here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682
- get the Gingerbread Stock ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=968396
- rename the stock rom to "root.zip" and place it on the SD-Card, top level
1. on your phone goto Settings -> Applications -> Development -> check "USB debugging"
2. connect phone with USB to your Windows machine (drivers above should be installed and Windows should recognize the phone)
3. fire up SuperOneClick and click "root", wait until it tells you it wants to run a test
3a. if it fails to root the first time, just hit root again (I had to do it, after second try it worked)
4. restart the phone after it is rooted
5. back in Android start RomManager
6. in RomManager flash a custom recovery, I took the one at the bottom (something with alternative recovery, second last entry)
6a. it might want you to install additional software, allow it
6b. it will ask you for rights, allow them
7. after the flash is finished boot into the recovery (second entry from top of rommanager)
8. in the custom recovery navigate to the point where you can apply an update with a zip file (in the one i took it was the second entry I guess)
9. after you choose the entry you can choose the zip, choose the "root.zip" and apply
10. now the installation should start with verifying and then actually applying the rom
11. restart the phone
11a. if you are now stuck in the start animation (the one with that floating x-thing) and it does not go on you have to reset all you data (factory reset)
11b. power off the phone and start it with pressing the power button and volume down
11c. a screen appears, navigate to "recovery" and hit the power button (you have to wait till it loads something, then you can press that)
11d. in the new screen there should be an option called factory reset, if not it is like "wipe all data" -> that's when you loose all your data (I had to do it)
11e. reboot the phone
12. Gingerbread should boot now
Feel free to ask any questions if you have. Hopefully I can help.
I did not use the stock rom directly, guess that saves you one step.
If it does not work, but I guess so you have to do the same as above but install this rom first:
http://dl4.htc.com/RomCode/Source_and_Binaries/signed-passion-img-FRG83_0923.zip
After you installed it boot the phone and check if the version is correct: Settings -> about phone.
If so get the Gingerbread update (http://android.clients.google.com/p...signed-passion-GRI40-from-FRG83G.81304b2d.zip) and place it on the SD-card as "update.zip".
Boot to the recovery, same steps as the factory reset. There will be an option "apply update.zip". Use that and after it you will also have Gingerbread.

Wow! thank you so much for the step by step guide, I really appreciate it now I feel more confident to attempt the feat of updating.

You don't need to root to update.
Follow the wiki guide to unroot/restore using the passimg method for FRG33, then install the updates to FRG83, 83D, 83G, then finally Gingerbread...

[IMPORTANT]eternal.sumit's IMPLEMENTED GUIDE to LG thrill 4G!!

As per the title I've already tested the stuffs successfully and as per my experience I posted this guide. I want to help you guys too!!
INSTALL LG DRIVERS FOR PC:
1.Extract the zip and install drivers from setup.
http://www.mediafire.com/?eec7g8dekfggwag
ROOT LG Thrill 4G:
1.Make sure your phone is not set to read mass storage only.
Setting>SD card & phone storage setting>uncheck “mass storage only”.
2.Turn on Usb debugging
Setting>application>development>check “USB debugging”
3.Connect phone to PC via USB cable.
4.Be careful don’t click “turn on mass storage” and leave the phone as it is.
IF you are on stock ANDROID 2.2.2(froyo):both megatron_windows and super one click roots your phone.
{however I prefer megatron_windows than super one click as it has less probability to freeze than super one click.when I was on froyo I had to try 2nd time by super one click to root}
IF you are on stock ANDROID 2.3.5(gingerbread):only megatron_windows roots your phone.
Megatron_windows” root:
-After you have followed upto step 4 & connected your phone to PC,open “run” batch file as administrator,from the extracted folder.
-when batch windows pops up press enter .It will start rooting.It will reboot 2 to 3 times your phone while rooting.After it finishes rooting,it will prompt to press any key on batch windows.Hit enter and your phone is rooted.

Now you can enjoy any root needing powerful apps such as “Titanium backup”.
FLASHING CWM RECOVERY & MAKING YOUR 1ST NANDROID BACKUP:
Flashing CWM is very vital for playing around with custom ROMs and before you flash any custom ROM by CWM it is must to make nandroid backup so that you can flash back to your custom ROM in case anything goes wrong.
Until there’s nandroid backup on your SD card and you don’t replace CWM recovery with your stock recovery you can go to your stock ROM any time you wish and hence there’s no risk of phone brick.
IMPORTANT:YOU CAN ONLY FLASH FROYO BASED CUSTOM ROM ON 2.2.2(FROYO).LG THRILL GINGER BREAD CUSTOM ROMS CAN ONLY BE FLASHED AFTER YOU UPDATE YOUR PHONE FIRMWARE TO ANDROID 2.3.5(GINGERBREAD).
FLASH TOUCH VERSION CWM RECOVERY:
Our LG thrill supports touch CWM recovery which best and efficient among other CWM recovery.so I will guide you through touch recovery.

http://www.mediafire.com/?m0jbk4eprv4b331
2. turn on the USB-Debugging
3. connect your phone via usb with the PC
4. click "LGP920_CWM_5.8.1.5_Flasher.exe" to start the flash tool
5. choose Y to start flashing or N to cancel
6. your phone reboots after finishing
7.press any key to close the tool
HOW TO START INTO CWM-Recovery:
1.turn off your phone
2.start it with holding ower + VolDown(-) + 3D-key
MAKING YOUR 1ST NANDROID BACKUP:
1.Boot into CWM
2.Click “backup and restore”>click “backup”
3.After making backup finishes click “reboot system”.
{Note:copy your backup file to PC.In case you lost backup accidentally oh mass storage you can copy again from PC to mass storage or SD card.Copy “clockwordmod” folder from root of your phone memory or SD card to pc. If you lose backup file from phone paste it back to phone storage or SD card.}
FLASHING CUSTOM ROMs:
1.Boot to CWM recovery
2.go to “wipe data/factory reset” and wipe data
3.go to “wipe cache partition” and wipe cache
4.go to “advanced”>”wipe dalvik cache” and wipe dalvik cache
5.After you have cleared all 3 caches as above,go to”install zip from sd card”>if you have ROM(zip) on sd card select ”choose zip from sd card” else select “choose from internal sdcard”>choose the required ZIP file as ROM and install.
6.when proccess completes Reboot phone and you will boot into your custom ROM when phones starts.
HOW TO RESTORE NANDROID BACKUP IN CASE OF SYSTEM FAILURE:
In case there is problem on your custom ROM.
1.start into CWM Recovery as like instructed earlier.
2.Click” backup and restore”>click “restore”
3.choose the backup file of stock ROM you backed up before,which is named to the date when you created your backup.

My Recovery Manager has stock Android Recovery, ClockworkMod, and Touch ClockworkMod.
Thumbs up on illustration!
FroYo ROMS can be rooted with SuperOneClick without any problems. Gingerbread uses Megatron Root.

As there is already an update for ginger bread.I think flashing custom ROM compatible for 2.3.5 only makes vital sense.so i meant to update firmware to gingerbread to users to enjoy GB based custom ROM.I don't think custom ROM for froyo is good idea,thats why i advise users to update their ROM to gingerbread for enjoying custom GB ROM on it which is stable and fast.
any way what you said is correct.so I am editing the post...

CWM Recovery for ICS?

Hi,
I've using LG Optimus Black for 2 years and haven't upgrade my device with custom ROM. As you know, Instagram doesn't run on ICS and I'm tired of it. Finally I decide install custom ROM. I rooted my phone with UnlockRoot but I can't install CWM Recovery.
What am I doing wrong and what should I do?
Please help me.

If you're rooted, can't you just download CWM ROM Manager from the play store? I've always used that for installing 970 ROMs.

Please do not try to install CWM on ICS. You'll get a security error and will have to unbrick your device!
If you already have ICS stock on your phone, there is a simply procedure, that will allow you to get CWM again, but you'll have to install a new ROM via Smartflashtool.
1. You need a V20 ROM, that has been patched with CWM, like THIS ONE.
2. You need Smartflashtool
3. Download Superuser.zip from here: http://downloads.noshufou.netdna-cdn...arm-signed.zip and put it on your SD card.
4. Unpack the V20S patched .7z file
5. Flash the .bin file using SFT
6. Your phone will reboot to recovery
7. Do a factory reset and if you wanna stick with a rooted v20S, just flash the superuser.zip and reboot. If you already want to install a custom ROM, just put that on your sd card and flash it (see how to install a custom ROM).
8. Reboot and enjoy your new ROM
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
A v20 firmware (stock ROM) with CWM included you can download from here
And the link to Superuser.zip seems to be broken..download this(here is also included a firmware...you can use this firmware or you can download another from link above), here you can find Smartflashtool, Superuser.zip and the USB driver( you need to install this to let smartflashtool(also shorted as SFT) to detect your phone)
A detailed tutorial about how to flash with SFT:
An explanation about this tutorial.. the files from 3 and 4 (CP and AP) are the firmware files (this is what you had downloaded)
radkor said:
1. Unpack SFT.rar that contains SmartFlash Tool program.
2. Unpack, preffered C: drive, firmware pack BIN_LGP970AT-00-V10a-EEU-XXX-MAY-09-2011_0.zip
Inside there will be 2 files: LGP970AT-00-V10a-EEU-XXX-MAY-09-2011+0_AP.bin i LGP970AT-00-V10a-EEU-XXX-MAY-09-2011+0_CP.fls.
3. Run B_SmartFlashTool_Extern.exe
4. Choose:
1) ROM copy D/L bookmark
2) in Select mode choose Normal mode
3) choose CP file: LGP970AT-00-V10a-EEU-XXX-MAY-09-2011+0_CP.fls
4) choose AP file: LGP970AT-00-V10a-EEU-XXX-MAY-09-2011+0_AP.bin
*) connect phone in S/W Update mode with battery in it (on the phone that is switched off, plug in USB cable WHILE HOLDING Vol+ button)
5) choose COM port.
6) choose LGE Mobile USB Serial Port in Communication Driver
7) click Start and wait till end.
It takes about 3 mins to flash.
After successfully flashing, phone will reboot and make Factory Reset.
And that's all!

I've done every step. I flashed 20D ROM and my phone was reboot. In CWM screen, I did factory reset and select "choose a .zip from SD card" Superuser.zip. After that I rebooted my phone. But I want to install custom ROM (example: Nameless ROM) now, what will I do? So how can I see CWM screen again?

Now, you choose a custom ROM..i don't recomand you Nameless ROM because isn't stable yet, but you can try it...i noticed that they are working hard to that ROM:-? it will be great
I recommend you IZS. It is a very stable and fast ROM based on ICS .. look here ..you have somewhere a BIG title called "INSTRUCTIONS" every ROM has flash instructions.. there are same instructions to flash a ROM..but to flash an update to a ROM may be different, so pay attention to update instructions to every ROM
Now to acces the CWM you can download from google store this app
So..basically to flash a ROM you have to:
1) Go in recovery menu (CWM)
2) Do a data,cache and dalvik cache wipe (you will find dalvik cache wipe to tab "advanced")
3) Choose: flash zip from sd card
4) Choose ROM zip and flash it

You had used the right namelessROM file? http://sourceforge.net/projects/nam...less-4.4.2-20140412-p970-NIGHTLY.zip/download
That supposed to work..try again like this:
-Download this and put it on your sd card http://goo.gl/rurEY ...these are GAPPS..in other words this is google store app..not all ROMs have GAPPS included, some time you have to flash it by your own
-go in CWM
-be sure that you do a data wipe ,cache wipe and dalvik cache wipe..
-install ROM with flash zip from sd card
-install GAPPS with flash zip from sd card
-reboot

Uhm..you can try cyanogenmod it is very "default" but many ROMs are based on cyanogenmod
Zeus is nice:-?..in my opinon I think Zeuz is the best ROM based on android 2.3

Instagram doesn't work on Nameless ROM, too.

Yeah, I know it. I thought Instagram may be improved and updated it. But this hasn't fixed yet. So I installed Instagram 3.4.0 but it says "Your version of Instagram out of date". Then I updated and install again 3.4.0 when I'm login, but I seem log out.

[Q] I9000 2.3.3 CM installation Assistance needed

I hate to post a thread about this.
But I searched and searched but cannot find the particulars of what I need help with specifically.
I wouldn't have registered if I didn't think I could get around it without some help.
Here is the situation.
Galaxy S GT-I9000 came with Android 2.3.3 installed, No further updates are on offer when I try to update.
Phone is slow and aweful, Going to install CM
What I have.
CM installer, PC and Android applications.
Heimdall client 1.4.0 in Zip.
CM-10.1.2-GalaxySMTD in Zip.
Recovery-clockwork-2.5.1.2-galaxys
And that Windows C++ thing (I have no idea what it is for, Tutorial just told me to download it)
The exe I downloaded and installed is vcredist_x86
Now then, Because the tutorials I've read mention the phone being either 2.2.3 or 2.3.6 but not 3.3
causes me concern, I do not know what I am doing, I do not want to risk muddling my way through,
I would like to get the installation of Cyanogen done as quickly as possible as my phone is in Limbo
I did a factory reset after backing everything up, I have lost all Marketplace apps but still have the apps from Amazon.
I request the help of somebody with experience with installing roms on this particular phone,
I tried the CM installer from Amazon and from the website directly, Both when used in conjunction with the PC installer
simply told me that my device was not supported.
This leaves me with trying futile diagnostics to try and make it work, however as my phone is my modem
for internet use, I really cannot have a phone in limbo on this issue.
As for the custom installation well, I don't know where to begin,
I really have no idea what ClockworkMod recovery really is, or how I install it, I have never "rooted"
Anything besides a PSP before, and the fact the tutorial just tells me to "root" to get CWM installed
just opens up a whole new can of worms and more reading that just further confuses and frustrates me.
Please if anybody can help, and put things in straight forward terms, I would greatly appreciate it.
I hope the info provided is sufficient any further questions, ask

I Thank you for finding that, as I did not, But I did read it last night and tried my best. The results are not good.
It's pretty much just leading to me downloading more software, then google searching how to use it. and it just goes on. an unending can of worms.
Install CM11 okay simple enough, First get Clockworkmod Recovery, Okay, CWM needs Root, Okay? How do I root? Well get Odin and Flash this Rom you never heard of, and to use Odin you first need to get CWM and use Heimdall and then Root and then Heimdall and then Odin then CWM then Root then Odin then Heimdall then Flash Image then Partition thingy stuff and more jargon then root Heimdall Flash CM then Put CWM on.

Don't get me started on a tutorial where I lookup another tutorial for software mentioned in first tutorial, that tells me to download some rom or hack or piece of software, that is a file I NEVER heard of, and needs an Unzipper, or something.
I'm not being deliberately inept, I just cannot do this unless it's step by step and comprehensive, Not to mention I cannot go downloading stuff I end up not needing, or simply has no use, Phone data is not cheap.

It is really simple.
Do the following (assuming you want to install Cyanogenmod 9 (ICS)):
Download XXJVU (Firmware)
Download Odin 1.83 (latest supported version for I9000)
Make sure the Samsung USB Drivers are installed
Disable/uninstall KIES
Backup your contacts/sms/pictures etc
Boot into Download mode (Volume down + Home + Power)
Open Odin
Unpack XXJVU. You will get 3 files
Click PDA and choose the *CODE.tar file
Click CSC and choose the *CSC.tar file
Click PHONE and choose the *MODEM.tar file
Make sure re-partition is not checked
Connect your device to your computer
Click Start and wait (A box will turn green and will say PASS!)
Then you need to Root your device in order to install a custom ROM
Download CF-Root
Open Odin
Click PDA and choose the file you downloaded
Boot into Download mode and connect your device to your computer
Click Start and wait
Now to install the custom ROM do the following:
Download CyanogenMod 9.1.0
Boot into Recovery (Volume up + Home + Power)
Wipe Data, Cache & Dalvik Cache
Select Install from SD card and then select the ROM you downloaded
Select Yes and wait (your device will reboot and then boot in your new ROM)

Well it is simple when people like you write well paced yet comprehensive guides, Good news too, I got my internet connection back so I can download all the tools, stick em in a folder and get down to business.
I am guessing you can install any version of CM (Jelly Bean, Kit Kat etc) So long as it is the correct build for the correct phone (in this case GT-i9000)
Odin is better than Heimdall? I have Heimdall already, I'll grab the USB drivers, I don't remember if I even downloaded them, if I did I wouldn't know what they were called at the time.
The Wiki returns results on Odin saying things such as "Unofficial leaked software" blah blah something about Heimdall being more user friendly.
Anyway I will read the guide and hope it all goes smooth from now on

It is not advised to install the latest versions of CM (i.e. JB or KK) straight from stock because you might lose your IMEI.
The correct way is to install ICS first and the JB or KK.
Heimdall is good but for someone who never flashed a ROM before ODIN is the way to go.

The IMEI on the device itself that allows you to use cellular networks or just the copy google and all those apps sneakily grab?
It really reminds me of flashing a PSP ah, so un-straightforward it was amazing I didn't screw up.
Btw the Rom had Odin 1.8.3 already damn, I got two copies.
Well I have everything I need, I already wiped and backed up my phone, still have my USB files on there, no doubt they will be gone when I do the reboot wipe.
Oh wait, I got CF and I downloaded Clockworkmod recovery a few days ago, Hope they are correct.
I take it that when I complete installation all the google stuff gets put back on from the stock rom?
On a final note, aside from needing more speed, I really look forward to trying those privacy features or apps that can restrict access to personal info, and also keep my IMEI out of access, from Play store or anywhere else, I was pretty furious that such a unique ID that nobody but your cellular provider has the right to know is so easily leaked out on smartphones.

You don't need to separately download Clockworkmod recovery. CF-Root includes it.
If you want all the Google stuff you need to download Gapps (Google Apps) and flash it through Recovery.

So to be clear, Once I install Cyanogen ICS I will not have access to the Market/Playstore until I flash the Gapps package onto the phone?
Update. CF installed, ICS installed, stuck in boot loop till I reinstalled from sd card (ACTUAL sd Card)
I dunno what to think of Cyanogen Mod so far, I was hoping it would have more choice of skins/launchers, particularly just classic stock Android, Anyway the original ROM is gone, So I now have CF+Stock or CM9
The CWM app is gone since I installed CM9 but the Droid Superuser is still there, Is there anything more besides getting access to my apps (Skype fb dropbox etc) That I need to install? one thing I do want to get done is find out what Privacy permissions thingie is best, I heard about LBE but couldn't use it, Now I can, any opinions?
By the way I cannot express how good this tutorial is, it's probably as easy as the CM installer app.
That means Job Well Done!!!!

You now run the CyanogenMod 9 ROM with the CyanogenMod 9 Kernel. CF-Root and the stock ROM are gone.
There are a lot of themes for CyanogenMod 9. See this.

I put the stock ROM back on, the CM keyboard and weird touch sensitivity was annoying, Also no file explorer or task manager or anything that showed how much Ram was being used, It's just too un-ergonomic.

There are a lot of file explorers that you can download from the Play store that are hundreds of times better than the stock Galaxy S explorer. If you want a ROM with a built-in file explorer try CyanogenMod 11.
To see how much RAM is being used go to Settings -> Apps -> Running.
If you don't like the default keyboard you can always download a better one from the Play Store.
There are also hundreds of different ROMs to try that are way better than the stock ROM.

So there is no way to actually migrate your stock apps with you to CM from Gingerbead 2.3.6?
So this CF root what is that exactly? Just root access and superuser? because one thing I would like to be able to do is disable IMEI access before setting up a google account to install apps.
As I mentioned before, I am going to have another go at CM when I have the time, it's just a pain modding a phone you regularly use, I think at this point though even Cyanogen cannot improve my phone's performance, the battery sucks, everything force closes, slower than the phone I had before I bought this one, essentially..
Android gives me a headache these days..
By the way I've passed on your guide to others who have Galaxy phones and express an interest in rooting,
They would want to know about how to do it for more recent models, so you might at some point get people asking you for help

CF-root is a kernel & custom recovery package. TW based apps can not be migrated to custom ROMs, but many other can. If your apps are synced with your Google account, every custom ROM that uses GApps will automatically reinstall your apps short time after first reboot. It takes me about 30min to setup whole the phone in the new OS. Use my sticky thread on this section for another info, especially regarding backups. Try Mackay ICS CM9 2014, you won't belive it is the same phone.

[Q] [1572] Need help flashing modules

Yesterday I flashed hypeedrI've RLS20 on my stock rim, everything went smoothly and it installed however I did not have wifi. Since this was something I was used to I figured just roit and flash no problem, however towelroot requires wifi. Therefore what I need to know is how do I flash the NE3 modules without rooting, or how can I root without towelroot. Any help is appreciated.

You're supposed to flash the masterpatch v2 in Safestrap immediately after you flash the rom (i.e. before you reboot) and as for root, you are supposed to flash Update-SuperSU-v2.46.zip upon install, right after the masterpatch (again, before reboot).
In safestrap, in this order, all before your first reboot:
Rom
Masterpatch v2
Update-SuperSU.zip
Just checking to make sure, your post says 1572, but your phone is really the I537, right? The I572 is a different phone...

Sorry yes, I made a typo it's 1537, also safestrap won't work anymore, it whipped my phone clean and I can't install ss without root

Sounds like you're going to have to Odin back to stock NE3 in order to get the rom working correctly, but don't worry, it's fairly straightforward if you do it correctly. I've attached Odin v3.09 to this post, simply extract the folder to your desktop and run the program. Before doing any of this make sure whatever data, media, settings, etc. that you want to save are all backed up somewhere other than your phone's internal memory; Odin will wipe your phone's memory clean.
1. Download the stock NE3 Odin files from the link in the OP of this thread and extract to your PC somewhere easy to remember
2. Boot your phone into download mode by holding home, volume down, and power and selecting continue. Run Odin and connect your phone to your PC via USB, Odin should recognize your phone almost right away
3. Load the AP, CP, and CSC files (I don't use the BL file), it should look exactly like below:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
4. MAKE SURE REPARTITION IS NOT SELECTED. Assuming the appropriate files are loaded and your phone is properly connected, hit start, DO NOT INTERRUPT IT OR UNPLUG YOUR PHONE. Should take up to five minutes or so, it will reboot into stock recovery at some point, again, just leave it be and let it do its thing.
5. Once the phone reboots into the normal old NE3, you'll have to root it using towelroot. Then install Safestrap, download the rom file, the masterpatch v2 (make sure it's v2), and that SuperSU zip I linked to in my earlier post, all to your phone's storage.
6. When in Safestrap recovery, simply do the following - wipe (default settings), install rom, install masterpatch v2, install SuperSU. Then reboot.

Installation from SD should be fine. Odin flashing back to stock is the only part of this process that WILL erase the phone's internal storage, guaranteed. It's also the only way I know to fix WiFi and to allow a correct re-installation of the ROM, given the circumstances @p_eros described.

No don't do that. But have you tried removing the aroma files and folders from META-INF/com/google/android inside the zip and then editing out the aroma parts from the update-script ? Idk if that could work, but it sounds like it might, as long as the update-script is written properly

So basically you're talking about editing the script so that it skips aroma, while still installing the desired components of the rom itself? also any news on if the person you mentioned has edited the script?
