How long should it take to install the PAC man rom ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2244963 )? I followed the steps and now I have been on the "PAC is loading screen" for a long time.
Did something go wrong?
Did you wipe everything beforehand? Did you mount system? How long is a long time?

I didn't mount it I think and it has been like that for couple of hours
Well you have to mount system. So there's your problem.

its stuck on the PAC is loading screen and i have not been able to get out of it.
Hold both volume buttons and the power button.
Sent from my PACMAN MATRIX HD MAXX
i hold down the button, the screen goes black but when i let go it goes back to the PAC man ROM
You have to boot back into recovery after it turns off by keeping the volume buttons down.. Another case of someone trying to brick their shiny new phone by not reading directions?

thanks man! it you really helped. btw it installation instructions said from custom rom or previous version and i didnt fit into any of those categories so it was confusing
Yeah but I've seen your other questions you've asked in here and you don't really do any searching or looking before asking so there's your problem. Happy to help but try reading up a bit more so you can get things on your own. Then if you still need help ask away.

why did he have to mount system i flashed pac man twice never mounted.
I think it might depend if you are flashing from like a stock rom or from another custom rom.
I don't know how it worked for you then if you didn't mount it.

I had the same issue and then i reflashed everething and everything works great for me now

u must rooting ur device man!
EDIT: download X-plore file manager or ES file manager from playstore check root option got to
/system/app/SystemUI.apk
copy it to ur SD card and open it as zip file on ur computer or on ur phone by using X-plore 'only available in it' replace the pics u love wiz exited in the apk file but don't change the stock name!
and go to /system/framework/framework-res.apk
copy it in ur SD card do the same replace the pics, when u finish copy the SystemUI.apk to /system/app/ and replace it
make force cloce don't worry restart ur phone and copy framework-res.apk to /system/framework/ and replace it when finish copying the phone will restart automatically or if it don't restart do manual restart.
-I'M NOT RESPONSiBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE IN UR DEVICE!

Is the joker ROM deodexed?
I didn't try the ota kitchen with my deodexed ROM, but I did notice a few features with it. For instance, double pressing the Home key would bring up voice commands. Not sure if it was because of my deodexed ROM, or my three year old messing with settings

I have the AHD w/ 4.1.1 rooted. Other than rooting it, its stock. I haven't installed SafeStrap like everyone else and I'm going to unlock my bootloader shortly. So how should I go about flashing CWM recovery afterwards? I want to go from unlocking to flashing recovery without SafeStrap. Thanks

Easiest way is to download ROM manager and install the recovery for the photon q.

yo can you flash with the photon q cmw if so is there a special process you use?

I decided to use ROM Manager and install the Photon Q cwm. Works like a charm. I did a full backup & restore of my stock rooted 4.1.1 without a hitch. Mounted /system, wiped and reset, then flashed Batakang Rises and gapps... I can't complain at all! Haven't had any FCs or anything. Battery life is much better for sure!

Would manually mounting system remove the "Android is upgrading" on every bootup? That was the main reason I uninstalled Batakang in the first place.
It's still a rom built for a locked bootloader. So I doubt it. Try mounting data and system and tell me how it goes.

I'll wait for Blackest Pain to do it - I've already spent an unhealthy amount of time over the last few days tinkering with my phone :laugh:
all right i was wondering if there was a way to revert back to 4.1.1 i was trying to get to 4.2.2 and it worked but i forgot the Gapps so i tryed everything to get them to work and no go i tryed to get ClockworkMod Recovery and every tutorial out didnt work i got the bootloader unlocked and everything i thought everything was working great till i forgot the Gapps im running on 4.2.2 VANQUISH_U_BP_ Is there anything i could do or am i screwed ...?
4.1.1
I just want to go back to 4.1.1 if possible and i have my back up from safestrap if that helps
If u made a backup. . Flash it..but first if I was u.I would take a breather. Calm down. .watch some of qbking77 videos on YouTube. He spoon feed it to you. .search your phone on xda and Google.. do your research. .

i dont think the back up is even gonna work it was with safestrap and i just re installed it on my phone and it dosent come up on start up anymore

Flash stock with rsd lite and start over.
Or use fastboot to flash cwm.

You'll need to unlock your bootloader to install custom ROMs. As for root apps, there are a lot but to name a few: Root Browser, AdFree, Clean Master, Greenify, Startup Manager, and if you're going to be flashing ROMs, Titanium Backup, I cannot recommend the pro version enough.
Sent from my MB886 using xda app-developers app
Thanks I have safestarp and am running inflikted...any good ROMs you'd reccomend...I have clean master and root explorer to pro....I was not a fan of titanium back up...maybe it was just a bit confusing to me

Don't use safestrap with an unlocked bootloader man. Your setting yourself up for failure. It's mentioned at least a hundred times. Hell even in the title of the safestrap thread.

It seems to be working okay as of now...like I said I'm new to this...I think safe strap was in the same file with inflikted... What would you recommend using?

Delete what ever partition you created with ss. Then start your phone and go into the app and click uninstall. Then use myth tools to flash cwm.

Hell, I have small fingers and it's an issue. I always have to be very careful selecting "+++Go Back+++" after I tap the wrong option so as not to erase anything like user data.
