[Q] Updated Thrill to ICS, wrong Gapps? - LG Thrill 4G

Hey,
So I have an LG Thrill, on ATT, and I recent updated from GB to ICS using the LG customer support/update tool.
I'm now running ICS, which is really nice, but something is weird; For some reason I couldn't download apps that were meant for ICS!
In fact, I took a step back and realised that I didn't even have the ICS version of the Google Play store, or the ICS style menus. It seems as though my OS is ICS, but the Gapps are all GB ones... I downloaded some apks meant for 4.0 and those worked, meaning I can install ICS apps on my phone, but the Play Store is the wrong version, and thus detects the wrong OS...
ANy idea what I can do? I've been a bit confused as to the rooting procedure from stock, otherwise it might have been simple enough to install recovery and just flash new gapps...
Regards,
Azid Zeyre

I have it up and running on my X. Got the link from your thread in Rootzwiki. Thanks for releasing this.
I've got this rom on my samsung fascinate, and I have to say, it's the best rom out there. Even better than cm7. Does every single function work with this rom (gps, camera?) And in order to install it, is all I need to be on a rooted .34 and use bootstrap?
Sold my fascinate and my droidx and now both have miui and my HTC device does not. Looks like i have cake on my face.

It's a nice rom, I was on CM7, went to Apex, and then used bootstrap to get to Miui. I heard that the GPS does work(but my phone isn't activated and i can't use wifi to try it myself), I can confirm that the camera(pictures and video) works. as far as rooted .34, I don't know what that means?
thanks for ur quick response. So it's assumed that all the functions are working! I'll put this on my cousin's droid x asap! What I meant was, what were the initial steps that needed to be taken before I install this rom. There are no clear steps that I can find on this post at least.
You're welcome, all I did was use the Droid 2 bootstrapper(since that was what i had, and I was on Apex at the time which I think is a froyo based rom?), and went into recovery and did a factory restore, and installed the zip, and it booted. I took a risk, skipped backing up the rom and stuff before installing MIUI, but yeah make sure to back up the rom and stuff before you use the bootstrapper. I also read that full resolution should be working on the camera, the MIUI camera isn't included though, just the AOSP camera. Also the live wallpaper(only one on there) works.

I understand this runs the froyo kernel so im on liberty 2.1 can i bootstrap to recovery and flash this? Oh and do I need google apps as well?
Edit: Do I need to sbf back to stock then to cm7 then to miui?
Which version of Android is Liberty 2.1 based on(not sure if it matters as much as which kernel it's based on, if someone will clear it up for me), and which kernel is it based on? I don't know much about that rom. I know that at least the Market and Google Talk are included, Gmail is in there also(don't know if that's something that wouldn't be in a custom rom ie CM7).
EDIT: You should be able to install it from rooted froyo at least, but it would be good to find out if you could do it from Liberty, so you won't waste your time just in case you can.
Its 2.2 and I couldnt get it to install so i sbf'd back to stock and trying again.
Have you got it running? EDIT: This is Juanito216, i didn't know my sisters account was logged in lol.
Not booting apparently you need d2 bootstrap........sbf'ing again.
Edit: Still at moto logo. 4 minutes now not booting.
I recently installed MIUI on a coworkers OG Droid and fell in love. To have it on my X just a week later is awesome. This ROM is tizzits.
I can get cm7 to boot up but not miui wtf am I doing wrong?
Where the hell is everyone? Even IRC is completely empty.
Have you done a factory restore? Did you try wiping cache?

Im on my third sbf now. I rooted stock froyo got d2 bootstrap, got cm7 running, updated cwm to the latest version, wiped data and flashed miui and get stuck at m logo everytime.
I don't know what the issue could be, hopefully you can get it up and running soon.

getting the droid 4

soo my current phone right now is a Samsung stratosphere, well i have been having some big problems with it and well verizon said since i'm a long time and good customer (never ever been late on my bill) they said he will upgrade me to the droid 4 for 50$ without renewing my contract.
i am kinda new to the whole motorola stuff as i have allways had samsung android phones (i had a Motorola Backflip but i sold it 2 months later to get the Samsung captivate so i never got the chance to root it or anything) i noticed these phones have locked bootloaders and is just all pretty much on lock down compared to Samsung phones is that true?
does the droid 4 have root? and does it have custom roms? can you edit Boot animations on this phone with only root? does this phone officially have ICS?
i will be getting my Droid 4 tomorrow morning in the mail and very excited i have not done anything cool with phones since i had my Epic 4G as the stratosphere had no one working on it and only had root and that was that
First off, welcome to the D4! It really is a wonderful piece of hardware. I think you’ll enjoy it.
Now, to answer some of your questions.
1. Yes, the D4 has a locked bootloader. What does this mean? It means we are stuck with the kernel that Moto gives us. It does make it a bit more difficult of the devs but other than that, it’s really not THAT big of a deal. Of course I might not be saying that if I was the one developing ROMs for this thing.
2. The D4 does have root. The Droid 4 Utility makes it a piece of cake. Look for the “Droid 4 Utility Updated” thread in the dev section.
3. The phone does not officially have ICS. Not yet anyways. We have had 4 or 5 ICS leaks from Moto that run really really well so it can’t be far off. I am currently running the .213 ICS leak myself and it has been flawless for me.
4. We do have a few custom ROMs. There a couple of GB based ROMs that run off the stock GB kernel. Those are Eclipse and Arctic. I ran Eclipse for quite a while. Very nice. There is also CM9, AOKP, and Gummy ICS ROMs that run off the stock GB kernel. Your mileage may vary with these as they are a bit buggy from running off an older kernel. We now also have CM9 and AOKP ROMs based off the ICS kernel from the Moto ICS leaks. These are really early builds but I have been running the CM9 build for a few days now and it is surprisingly stable for how new it is.
5. I am not sure about changing boot animations. It seems I have seen somewhere, someone saying that using ROM Toolbox to change the boot animation sent them into a bootloop and they had to restore a backup. Not sure on that though. Haven’t tried it myself.
ok well from the looks of it i wanna go straight to ICS!
how would i go about doing that from Stock non root? i saw the one click root for GB and looks easy but how about ICS with root?
if i do flash the ICS leak and when the official ICS comes out will it brink my phone if i upgrade from ICS leak to ICS official?
it just seems for right now i wanna just have ICS with root and play with custom roms later when the official ICS comes out.
Since you will be going straight from stock the process will be really easy. Just download the latest ICS leak .zip file (currently .213) and stick it on your external sd card. Boot into stock recovery (hold power + volume up + volume down and select recovery), when you get to the little android guy in a box, hit volume up + volume down, then select the option to install from sd card, select the .zip file, let it do its thing and like magic, you’re on the latest Moto ICS leak. Then use the Droid 4 Utility update by jsnweitzel to root.
If you flash the ICS leak you will have to jump though a couple of hoops to get back on the OTA when it finally comes out. The OTA won’t brick your phone, it just won’t install. But there is a thoroughly tested way of jumping from leak to leak that should work to jump to the OTA and be back on the official upgrade path. This functionality is also built into jsnweitzel’s tool.
ok i went to http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dr...leak-kernel-crc-droid-4-build-6-16-213-a.html to download the .213 ICS update but it list 3 things
CRC file,Kernel,Leak
do i need to download the kernel or CRC file as well? or just the Leak file

All you will need is the leak as long as you have an external sd card. The kernel is only needed for people jumping from one leak to another and I believe the crc file is for those who do not have a external sd card installed.
ok i see i got that stuff downloaded
now about the Droid 4 utility
i downloaded the tool, but under the number 2 part it says to download the GB 219 fastboot files do i need those as well? i tried downloading them but it seems both links are down
also in that droid 4 utility walkthrough it says to download the kernel for
"2. Get the matching Kernel 6.16.213 (boot.img) here: https://docs.google.com/open?id=0Byw...1J0VFBCY1NBM2M
Unzip this folder and copy the boot.img to the "files" folder of the tool. It must be named "ICSFIX" for the tool to work."
also one more thing how does motorola phones do Backups? is there a CWM to backup my phone in case of a brick?
You will need the GB .219 fastboot files eventually to jump from the leak to the OTA (unless .213 ends up BEING the OTA). But you don’t need them right now since you will already be on unmodified stock GB.
You also do not need the kernel since you are on stock GB. You only need the kernel if you are going from one leak to another.
ok sounds good,
also one more thing how does motorola phones do Backups? is there a CWM to backup my phone in case of a brick?

Right now we have safestrap recovery. You should find the thread in the dev section. Since you will be on ICS you will want the 2.0 version meant for ICS. You can use this to make a backup as well as to boot into a "safe" system to install ROMs without screwing up you stock "unsafe" system.
i saw the droid razor is getting the ICS update as well, since we have pretty much the same phone are the updates suppose to come out at the same time? are the ICS leaks the same as the Maxx?
Unfortunately no. Moto has stated the D4 will get an ICS update in Q3. With the frequency and quality of the leaks I have to guess that that it will be sooner rather than later but who knows.

My office just got rid of BB and handed out D4's as replacements and the first thing I did with mine was to install the 213 ICS leak and am NOW happy with the device. Have not rooted it yet, that will happen in the next day or so.
well at first the Rep was not gonna let me have the droid 4 and said that most likely his boss wont give it out because the stratosphere is a cheaper phone (the phones he was gonna give me were the LG lucid,Droid charge,Pantech breakout.
but i told the guy i need a keyboard and that was the only reason why i got the strat for, so the guy said he would try to talk down with his manger and well he comes back and tells me he had good news and his manger said yes to the droid 4 as long as i paid something for it (i said $50) and he said that was fine
but he said he would send me a new backplate along with it but no charger (i got my old one but it is really ****ty and falling apart so i gotta order a OEM from Ebay tonight)
i tried using the search but could not find my question but do we have a list of apps that can be safely debloated from this phone on ICS? i like to have my phone free from Verizons crap along with un needed stuff that just waste battery
^^Also looking for a list of things we can remove to debloat all the [email protected] from verizon (can't even use it anyway since i am in canada!)
First off, unfortunately, most of the bloatware cannot be removed without causing problems. A lot of what moto and VZ builds into these things are interdependent on each other. Plus, the OTA updates look to make sure you still have that crap on your phone before it will update. So, unless you can long press on the app in the app drawer and it gives you an option to uninstall, it's best not to. There are some apps that can safely be uninstalled like, the golf and NFL games. The rest you are better off freezing with a program like Titanium Backup. I haven't seen a list on XDA but there is a good list on DF here: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-4-hacks/198081-bloatware-apps-safe-remove-droid-4-a.html that are safe to freeze. This list was started based on stock GB but most, if not all, should apply to ICS as well. I used it to freeze a bunch of stuff on the .213 ICS leak with no problems.

Keep in mind that you can now "disable" applications natively in ICS. keep in mind that if you updated any of the apps the updates must be uninstalled first. Just go to apps / all apps select the app/bloat you want to disable and select, you guess it, disable.
Never mind i think it was a bad download
question i got my phone charged to 100% my last from goes by 100% to 99,98,97 etc etc but i see on this phone after about 15mins it went from 100% to 90% and then 80 over time does this phone go by 10s?

[Q] What has been done to my milestone? Which ROM is this?

I bought used milestone 2 days ago and it is slow. I know its rooted because there is superuser icon.
But because of my noobity i dont know what he installed then. Strange thing is that it says Android version 2.2.1 which should be Froyo, but launcher looks like Eclair.
Screenshot pics are below, can you conclude what has he done? And what would you suggest?
About phone in settings: ttp://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/222/20120927013327.jpg/
Home screen like Eclair: ttp://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/713/20120927013831.jpg/
Im not allowed to post links so i removed letter h from my screenshot links. I hope that doesnt break the rules. I apologize if it does.
If i were you, i would definitely do a Factory Reset. Not because of the launcher (probably it's just a custom one), but the slowness.
Besides that, i would install kabaldan's CM7 or CM10.
I did factory reset and everythings the same, so i decided to install something else.
It is already rooted but i dont really know what im doing so i would like to go by some of those tutorials for rooting and installing rom. Can i do the same process as if it wasnt already rooted?
I mean, is it a bit more simple if its already rooted?
Would i mess something up if i did everything from the beggining as in tutorial?
THIS is the best tutorial you can get.
It's for CM7 which you can download from HERE.
But if you decide to give CM10 a try, you will find a link to the latest nighly in my signature, and a guide to make it bootable here.

It took Motorola forever to bring the 2.2 Update - but still they didn't manage to integrate the Froyo launcher.
Might as well be the official 2.2.1.
Anyhow - the stock roms are pretty bad - use CM (7 or 10, I prefer 7) or something CM-based (like MIUI).
The installation process is the same for every ROM.
Flash vulnerable recovery partition, install Open Recovery, wipe, apply update.zip.
For details refer to the tutorials Erovia posted.

[Q] Question about rooted Jellybean on GT-N7000

Ever since I bricked my phone and revived it with just a little bit over 8GB, rooting and running Jellybean Ultimate 5.1 Android 4.1.2 has never been a good experience. I followed all the instructions given by others such as formatting factory reset, cache, system, data, preload, and so forth, except formatting the emmc before flashing the Jellybean ROM, but it will work for a while then the upper right corner will be hot and then force-closes either itself or with an application freezing. I don't know my explanation is good enough, but it's been painful to flash jellybean, but it closed itself and never woke up until I reflash it or just PC Odin it with the original ICS. Any idea please.
Brick revived phones struggle to run stock roms as they are huge. try a slim rom like CM9,CM10 (try slim bean)
Wondering how to run the Jellybean.
That's probably right, but the ICS stock roms are still the same size as Jellybean. At first, it is smooth like liquid, but then I can never start it up again from its force-close. After having tried the Ultimate Jellybean XXLSC 5.1, being back on ICS is just so boring. Even games like Asphalt 7 runs smoother on Jellybean too. But like I said it closes itself after using it a while. If you guys have any tip instead of having to try CMs because CM is the one that I had my device bricked even with safe Kernal on it, please let me know. I really want the stable Jellybean that won't close itself and that I can always restart again. Or I am stuck with slow boring ICS. By the way, I use SD card to store all the big programs.

Download a Gingerbread ROM from Dr. Ketan's Thread.
Flash it using PC-ODIN.
Then install an ICS ROM (try Kingdroid). Do a factory reset.
Then you can follow all instructions mentioned on the OP of Ultimate JB ROM v5.1.
I had bricked my NOTE a few weeks back by mistake. I tried lots of things to go back to JB Roms....But kept getting stuckat some point or the other. Then finally I started with Gingerbread, then went to ICS and then to Ultimate JB ROM.
All is fine now
Just my 2 cents

I9000 - Newby to rooting

Hi peeps,
So I've read the FAQ, Sticky's and searched newby posts but never rooted a phone before so would be nice to bounce ideas off people before I brick the thing.
I'm rooting because I want to upgrade the OS, try the google DNS settings to see if it improves browsing speed and increase all round performance.
I always felt the hardware should be capable of more and now I want to see if it is!
I've tested download mode and seen the shiny yellow droid! :cyclops:
What I want to do is find the newest stable optimised OS for my device and practice rooting/customising before I move on to messing with my more valuable tablet.
I've read that IceCream Sandwich runs really great with low memory usage, do you guys cosign ICS as the best for I9000?
I also want to get rid of all the Samsung bloatware. Does anyone know which apps I can't remove because they might damage the device?
Found a guide to increasing RAM and processor speed by entering codes! Has anyone done this? Is it legit?
icantpostlinks.3arabfuture.com/2014/11/Samsung-Android-accelerate-and-strengthen-the-processor-and-ram.icantpostlinks
(you'll have to swap icantpostlinks for the www and html to check out the guide. It's written in Arabic but google did a good translation)
I've come across a ridiculous amount of ways to root my phone, has anyone tried the one click root app stuff?
The Odin tool looks good for flashing and they recommend using an 'Android cable'. Are there any issues with using other USB cables?
[EDIT: It doesn't look like Odin has a Mac version. Is anyone aware of a Mac alternative?]
Lots to talk about with this rooting stuff!
I had the official rom Gingerbread (works fine), custom roms Ice Cream Sandwich (so much better than the previous one), Jelly Bean (was just as good as ICS, maybe better), although this has been a while ago.
Kitkat was laggy. I haven't tried Lollipop. I did flash mine to Marsmallow, surprisingly it's seems faster than Kitkat.
Honeycomb was made for Tablet devices.

Wow Marshmallow was quick? I wouldn't mind checking out the multiscreen feature from Lollipop but more importantly I just want everything to be stable. I like the Notification feature from Jellybean so I'm tempted to start from there although it probably depends on which ROM you use, I suppose some will be better than others.
Did you delete any of the Samsung Apps?

If you flash custom rom on your phone you will lose all the Samsung Apps anyway. I think it wil be laggy if you tried the multiscreen feature, I think you mean the multitask function?
Jellybean is good, go for it I would say. Just follow the guides and you should be good to go. If you do happen to brick your device you can unbrick it with an unbrick tool.
I rooted and flashed various roms through the years from different creators, it has been a while ago though. I had to go back to stock rom because mine was rebooting on its own when it was on standby. It doesn't happen anymore but I need to root it again Glad it was not hardware issue.
I will go for Marshmallow again. I have only tested a little bit and I was satisfied so far. I will use this phone as a Music Player though
Edit: Maybe your account is too new to post links (not too sure) I haven't tried it myself. My account is new though.

You're right, no links allowed yet. Thanks for the tips man I think I'm ready to give this a go. I might have to do this on a Mac with a Windows virtual machine, bit of a hassle but I haven't found a mac version of Odin yet. Do they have links to ROM's here?

You can use the search function on this forum. You just search for the rom and confirm it's for your device. You can also google it, some guides should lead to this forum but there are plenty of other websites with guides. I have used guides from here and from other websites, unfortunately I don't remember which sites and which roms (from which creator) I have used in the past.
I don't know if there is an Odin for Mac version, but yea you can try it in virtual machine or bootcamp.
Edit: Before you root, is your phone on Gingerbread? (I ended up doing this one, after this you can root with a different method)

Cheers KHazuya I'll check out those links and try that later. I've already got Ginerbread but I find it a bit laggy tbh. I hope I can get my essential apps working on Jellybean if not then I might try Marshmallow.

The essential apps should be working on it unless it's designed for a newer android version.
After many attempts I managed to get all the flashing done (because it didn't always wanted to proceed for some reason, back then when I did it, it went smoothly. This time I had to search for the guides and files). My phone which I rooted and flashed long time ago, had some issues with randomly reboots when it was on standby so I went back to stock and it didn't happen anymore.
So from Rooted and Custom rom back to > Stock rom (Froyo) > Official update to Gingerbread > Root + CWM Recovery > ICS > Kitkat > Marshmallow
For some reason my router doesn't show up in the list, I see other routers though but I can connect my phone to my router by pressing the WPS Button (it happens on ICS, Kitkat and Marshmallow on my phone). After my router was turned off and on, my phone could detect the router. So it's all good now.
Well this phone will be my Music Player so it will have its uses and I don't need to buy an iPod or something

The essential apps should be working on it unless it's designed for a newer android version.
After many attempts I managed to get all the flashing done (because it didn't always wanted to proceed for some reason, back then when I did it, it went smoothly. This time I had to search for the guides and files). My phone which I rooted and flashed long time ago, had some issues with randomly reboots when it was on standby so I went back to stock and it didn't happen anymore.
So from Rooted and Custom rom back to > Stock rom (Froyo) > Official update to Gingerbread > Root + CWM Recovery > ICS > Kitkat > Marshmallow
For some reason my router doesn't show up in the list, I see other routers though but I can connect my phone to my router by pressing the WPS Button (it happens on ICS, Kitkat and Marshmallow on my phone). After my router was turned off and on, my phone could detect the router. So it's all good now.
