[Q] Stuck installing Data/Media ROM

I've been trying to install milaq's 4.4 ROM on my Touchpad and I'm getting a bit stuck.
I've removed my previous 4.0.4 build so that I could start fresh and get my head around the data/media build. I've tried following the text guide and Roland's video guides but keep getting stuck at the same point.
I put the following files in the "cminstall" folder on my touchpad and ran ACMEinstaller5M:
cm-11-20140223-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin
gapps-kk-20140105
recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.7-tenderloin
moboot_038-tenderloin
update-cm-tenderloin-data_resize_12228-0.1
So far I get the moboot menu and am able to get into the CWM-Based Recovery v6.0.4.7. This is where I'm stumped, I have no idea how to install the milaq ROM. I've had experience putting various CM Android builds on different devices (HD2, Defy+, Touchpad) but I'm struggling with this one. I know that I won't be able to install it the way I'm used to but I've tried searching and can't find what I'm supposed to do next.
I know this is a bit of a simple request but could anyone help me out with the next step? Once I'm past that, it'll be plain sailing I'm sure.
Thanks in advance.

I just inherited an already rooted/android touch pad, so I'm in your same shoes right now. So i'm following close! haha.
I'm very new to the whole webos stuff here, but very experienced with rooting android.
But at this point, don't you just start flashing the .zips in clockwork after a full wipe (wipe factory, cache, davlik)?

That's what I thought but the ACMEinstaller wipes everything in the cminstall folder. Also, CWM only has the option to install zips from the sdcard which isn't there.

AcmeInstaller won't install the zip that resizes your partitions, and when you flash a data/media rom, the sdcard or media partitions are only accessible thru the rom itself so you won't be able to see them in recovery.
I think you will have to start again. Installing a data/media rom from a fresh install is, to be honest, a pain in the ass! You need to have a non-data/media build installed, ie. Jelly Bean/CM10.x, then resize partitions, etc, etc.
If you want to install kitkat from a fresh start, go for flintman's non-data/media version in the link in this post, and this recovery (20121215). Rename rom update-xxx, same for recovery, include moboot, and also have appropriate gapps to flash.
Hope this helps.
Oh yeah, and don't use AcmeInstaller5M, use the one ending in 5E =)

You can't install CM11 data media builds with the ACMEInstaller. Here is my newest thread that explains how to get them fully installed. Please leave some feedback once you get it setup. :highfive:

That guide has been really helpful so far. I'm stuck at the last bit though.
I've installed PhilZ Clockworkmod but I don't know what to do from there. When I turn on the USB Drive, my PC can only see one SDcard (the WebOS one it sees normally) so I can't copy over the CM11 files to the Android one.
Any ideas?

If anyone is still having problems, this thread helped me. The instructions are in post #7 but you should read the preceding posts for background info.

[Q] Newbie stuck trying to upgrade from CM9 to CM11. Cannot access ROM Zips in CWM?!

Hello all - I am trying to upgrade from CM9 to CM11 using [ROM] [NIGHTLY] [KitKat] [4.4] CyanogenMod 11.0 nightlies [3.0 kernel],
I repartitioned the drive with Tailor as suggested, and upgraded my CWM to (6.0.4.7)
My problem now is how do i get access the ROM/GAPPs zips? I can copy them over USB on my Win7 Machine to this folder, but CWM doesnt see them/cant access them.
I only have access to this folder in Win7. tried doing a clean install, and still no look.
Computer\cm_tenderloin\SD Card\rom.zip
the only options i have under "choose zip" in CWM are
/sdcard/0/clockworkmod - how do i get the rom zips there? i am totally stumped. i tried ADP to sideload a rom but the device isnt found. thanks in advance!!

Complete install of Android on the device
HI
I was in the same position I'd tried everything. In the end I decided to start from the beginning. What I did was pretty hardcore. I completely uninstalled Android. You need to erase the usb drive in Webos. you do this by booting into WebOS, going to settings/device info/reset options/erase USB drive. Remember before you do any of this get all you data of your device to you PC. Once this is done you are ready to install Android again. Now I found it was easier to upgrade from CM10.2 Data/Media build to CM11. So I installed Android on the device using these four files;
- moboot_38
- CM10.2,update-cm-10.2-20140126-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin.zip
- update-gapps-jb4.3-20130813-signed.zip
- update-recovery-clockwork-no_metadata-6.0.3.6-20130926-tenderloin.zip
These files are available as a package at rootzwiki.com. There you will also find instructions on how to install android again and how to unistall android as well. Once android is installed now you need to resize the media and data partitions with tailor in webos. Now that this done you are ready to upgrade to CM11. So then booted up my device into Android. Then I connected it to my PC. enable USB conductivity on the device. I created a folder on the device on the now larger data partition (I used the same cminstall name for the folder).Transfered the CM11 (milaq version), Gapps and CMW 6.04.7 to this folder.
I would then boot into recovery. Now were going to update the CMW. choose install from zip find the folder and the CMW 6.0.4.7 file. install it.
once installed boot back into recovery. Now were going to inst CM11. First you need Perform a factory/data reset and wipe/format cache partition. Once this is done your ready to install CM11 and the Gapps. Choose install from zip. Find the cminstall folder you made install. then do exactly the process with the Gapps.
Android CM11 Milaq should work. This worked for me.
Hope this helps.
cheers

[Q] help on CM11 EMMC install

I am trying to install CM11 EMMC to my nook HD+ with stock rom on it. The instruction I followed is here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2600572
1.Download the initial sdcard image
2.ungzip and write to sdcard using dd (winimage or whatever for those stuck on Windows)
3.Instert the card into your nook and reboot
4.Flash the recovery image
5.Flash cm11 image
6.Flash whatever other extra things you need like gapps
7.remove the sdcard
8.reboot the nook
I did wipe data and cache after step 3. I finished steps 4 and 5. However, flashing gapps in step 6 failed with information of error in gapps zip file [status 6]. The gapps is downloaded from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942
I use the mini modular package. I am quite sure the gapps zip file is good since i have finished SD install with the gapps zip file. However, it failed in EMMC install. Now the nook can boot to CM11, but without any google stuff.
Any suggestion?

I'd suggest that you try a different, smaller size package (you can always add those apps not included later from the Playstore).
Also, if needed an alternate source for Gapss is http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps, use the "small" version.

Thanks for the suggestion. Other gapps on http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2397942 does not work. The gapps on the wiki page works, though it is for 4.4.2. I think the orginal thread on CM11 EMMC install should notice users on the possible problem.

I'm a total newbie to this but I think I have the same issue.... This is what I done and the results:
Used Win32imager onto 32gb Sandisk to write unpacked image of emmc-cwm-early3.1.img.gz then loaded onto card the following files:
cm-11-20141212-NIGHTLY-ovation.zip
cwm-recovery-ovation-6.zip
pa_gapps-stock-4.4.4-20141214-signed.zip
pa_gapps-modular-mini-4.4.4-20141214-signed.zip
Re-booted and did backup of stock and cleared/formatted internal card. Installed cwmrecovery images, and CM11 nightly. Tried installing to gapps stock and mini both came up with a Status 6 failed installation error .
Tried reverting to stock and couldn't recover due to error so re-installed CM and had same error. Copied off and removed restore apks to ensure enough space and tried again - still
status 6 error.
Checked to see whether script files has LF/CR but script file is dummy and the binary all seems to be in LF format. Running out of ideas as all of this is new to me.
So looks like i'm in same situation - HD+ which boots to CM but no stock googleapps.
I know it doesn't help but looks like same issue - any ideas?

Did you try using the Gapps packages from http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps? They are for CM11, the apps are a bit dated but after installation can be updated (via Google Playstore) to their most current version.

Deleted the pa_gapps-stock-4.4.4-20141214-signed.zip file.
Downloaded the two files from your link:
gapps-kk-20140606-signed.zip
gapps-kk-20140105-signed.zip
dropped both onto the card, re-booted and installed the larger 20140606 version which installed without any error messages. Removed card and re-booted - extra apps all look in place. Will now make sure they all run OK.
Thanks very much for your help - much appreciated. Can you tell me what the difference is in the installers that make the PA versions crash or is that too long winded?

Same issue not resolved
Hello;
I am using TPToolbox-2015-01-08-v42 to try to install the following.
ROM:
ev_tenderloin-6.0.1-nightly-2016.01.17
Recovery:
update-TWRP-jcs-dm-tenderloin-20140612b
GAPPS:
gapps-601-base-20160105-1-signed
I keep getting an error that says that gapps-601-base-20160105-1-signed appears to be corrupt and the installation aborts. I have tried several times to re-download this file, I ave tried several times to wipe the data and start fully clean but still it shows the GAPPS file as corrupt. Any ideas?
Thanks

looks like the only difference from what I used is the ROM version.
I guess you can try the same Rom that I did and then later update to another nightly.
Others may have better ideas.

[Solved!] I want to update TWRP, but ...

Hi!
I have a Nook HD+ running CM 12.1 (Android 5.1.1). The tablet is not rooted. Right now I have TWRP v2.7.1.0 installed, but would like to update to a newer version.
Installing v2.7.1.0 was a breeze. I booted into recovery mode (ClockWorkMod at the time), then flashed an Ovation TWRP ZIP file that I downloaded online. Looking for the most recent Ovation version, it seems it's only available as an IMG file. I can't find a version of TWRP more recent than v2.7.1.0 for Ovation in a ZIP format. Since the tablet is not rooted, I can't flash the newer version using Flashify or similar apps (as far as I can tell, that is) since they all require root access. And I can't flash an IMG file with v2.7.1.0, since that feature wasn't included until a later version (v2.8.5.0 I think). Therein lies the problem. I need a newer version to update, but I can't update until I have a newer version!
I've struggled with the suggested methods of installing TWRP from an IMG file, and would really like to simply flash a ZIP file (I'm already pretty good at doing that). So I've come up with a possible method that sounds too easy and too good to be true. Examining the ZIP folder for v2.7.1.0 (using Linux Archive Manager), I can see that there is a recovery IMG file and a folder labeled META-INF. If I replaced the v2.7.10 recovery IMG file with a more recent TWRP IMG file and left the META-INF file as is, would that work? Or, does the META-INF folder only support v2.7.1.0?
Thanks for your help ... and for not laughing at my possibly nutty idea

I have successfully updated flashable recovery zip files (for both the Nook NT and Nook HD+) with more updated recovery images by using an archive manager tool (mostly Windows 7-zip) to swap the recovery img files, just as you're contemplating -- see my brief discussion of this at https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71402570&postcount=270.
There is a possibility that the update-binary and updater-script in the given flashable zip are not compatible with the newer recovery file image (in which case one would get an error trying to flash it) but I have yet to encounter it, presumably because the versions of old and new recovery images involved have been relative close to one another.

Thanks for your response. You told me exactly what I needed to know.
I have viewed D. Andrei Măceș dropbox in the past, but I neglected to check it for TWRP updates (my bad). I'll keep this in mind the next time I want to explore new possibilities for my HD+.
The idea of creating my own zip was a temptation that I couldn't resist (since I was now feeling confident that I wouldn't brick my tablet, blow up Pittsburgh, or be responsible for something equally catastrophic). So, instead of downloading a zip file from the dropbox, I used Linux Archive Manager (I switched to Linux Mint some time ago to escape the more-frequent-than-I-could-bear crashes with Windows), to delete the file named recovery.img in the v2.7.1.0 zip, then inserted a recovery.img file for TWRP v3.1.1.0 in it's place. It worked perfectly, and I feel like a genius (I'm very easily impressed)!
Thanks for letting me know that my idea wasn't as dumb as I feared it might be.

Hello,
I tried using the TWRP 3.0.1.0 - ovation and 2.8.7.5. and they both receive the status 7 error:
"This package is for device: ovation ; this device is .
E: Error in /external+sd/twrp-3.0.1-0-ovation.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted"
I currently run on CWM Recovery 6.0.4.6, with cyanogenbootloader, lineage os 14.1. Unfortunately I cannot turn off my device (Nook HD+) no matter what, it keeps turning itself on until it empties battery (if I don't pay attention).
I keep trying to install the zips from CWM Recovery but I cannot do it.
Is there any way for me to install TWRP from CWM?
Thank you

Did you tried holding down the power button for 30+ sec?

Thank you for the answer.
1. The link doesn't work (https://www.mediafire.com/#6a4rivb8kkdfu?) leads me to an upload page.
2. I tried all the options I could find online. If I let it be for 1 week (I use it for reading and sometimes youtube) it turns itself on at some point and the battery goes empty. And it is so hard to turn it on again. When I plug it for charging the battery and is completely empty, the led stays green - instead of orange - for a long time and is not responsive to anything I do until it reaches 80%+ , so I let it be for 2hrs while plugged.
3. What I try to do is actually root it for overclocking or make it a little bit faster because it lags in every thing I do with it. Although in some variants of the Android which I installed over the years it used to be more responsive.
Unfortunately I cannot root it because CWM doesn't recognize the install of SuperSU zip from Lineage website. Do you have any advice on that?
Thanks

Thank you very much! You really helped me with this one!
I just did it! Flashed it with the cwm.flashable.twrp zip from your link!
I run now the TWRP 3.0.1-0.
I couldn't flash any higher versions (3.2.x) directly from this installed version
Anyway my booting time is faster and so far (1min time) the turning on/off procedure works normal, as it should be.
What lineage OS version is the best one for the nook hd+?
I just installed the 14.1 version from the lnos-ovation-ota-NJH47F.181223.zip found at: https://notredame.app.box.com/s/26a4bygh9vbaw7jjq08xr5evomvaw5ww/folder/3332706778
This version, however, has landscape mode as default viewing mode and it keeps spinning here and there.
At the moment I find myself in the latest stage of my process: rooting the device so I can try and overclock it.
Trying to install the official lineage "addonsu-14.1-arm-signed.zip" , from their website (https://download.lineageos.org/extras), but it doesn't work.
I mean it installs it successfully in the TWRP recovery. It is enabled in the developer options for both Apps and Adb. But the root checker app says it is not rooted.
Is there a proper way to root it? If so could you please share a solution when you have time?
Also any ideas on how to properly overclock (make the tablet a little snappier, besides the animation scale option from dev options)?
Cheers!

There should be an option in TWRP to "flash image" you can use to directly flash .img binary of a newer TWRP version.

You should be able to disable auto-rotation in Settings->Display.

Try disabling and exit Settings->Developer Options, then come back and re-enable it.

My device is with default landscape. If I disable it it stays in landscape and never goes to portrait.

It still doesn't work.
Thanks for the overall guidance!
