Everyone mod is working i geuss except for mines i don't know what am doing wrong.
i tried to mod mine with the dexter mod 1.41 and mines wont work,
1st- i download the file didn't unzip it then i sent it to the SD card and rename it "update.zip".
2nd- i did the factory wipe/reset then i select to wipe all data
3rd- i select update.zip but i notice an message saying( E. can't read from SD card, or something like that). i dont know if that is apart of the mod or what.
4th- when it is finish then i select reboot option and when it is done rebooting i get nothing new. can you help me out are do you know something that i might be doing wrong. i also did do the 1.42 patch aswell didn't work. are is there any other newer way to do it are what. Even if you can write step by step on how to do it properly.
PLEASE HELP ME OUT.

Did your a7 have a sdcard problem before the attempt ?
And even tho it sed it can't read sdcard, did it proceed to install anyway ?

yes it did go ahead with the installation, but it is during the installation process where i saw something about can't read error, i jus got it yesterday then i did the new update from elocity website. then i tried al,ost all of dexter's mod

these are the exat message i got was (E:can't open/usb/update.zip)
(E:Can't mount USB:update.zip)
then underneath that it say (Finding update package)
then it say (Wait for 5 second)
(Installation time out)
(installation aborted)
(Formatting MISC)
these are all the thing it say during installation

Does your a7 read, mount and unmount the sdcard stock?
What is the path to the update.zip?
Sorry for all the questions, I'm just trying to get on the same page

I'm having just about the same problem. Will be interested to hear any helpful suggestions. At this point, the only thing that is working is to do the factory reset and use the basic version again. I keep getting a message that "update.zip" (although I named it "Update.zip") is a bad file. I also did not get "apply sdcard:update.zip" as a menu option, only "apply:update.zip", which when clicked did read the sd card, then gave the bad file message.

update
Lemme clarify first then update. I bought the A7 in February and loaded the most current Dexter mod at that time. It's been running beautifully until this week. Over a period of days, the A7 started acting up until it was no longer usable at all. First, the BlueTooth cut out, then the WiFi, then it just got stuck and was repeatedly lighting up the Elocity logo, but never fully booting up.
Elocity support said to do the Factory reset, which I did and it was back to baseline again. Trying to install the latest version of Dexter is where my problem started. (end of history)
So, now the update for this evening: I tried every version of Dexter's mods and got the "bad" file message each time, even after downloading them again to be sure I wasn't using a corrupted copy. However, my A7 will wipe, then update with Elocity Firmware 2.0134 and read it just fine on the exact same SD card when renamed "Update.zip".
So, now I have a very frustrated boy with autism who can't do his Google Voice search anymore and the Android Marketplace doesn't let me download the apps I already bought for him. We're back to where we were when it arrived out of the box in February, but unable to restore what we had.
I have to think there's a conflict between Dexter's Mods and the new firmware, even after one wipes everything. I even tweeted Dexter (and I don't *do* Twitter!) to see if he could respond for help and am waiting for a response.
Can someone please help? Thanks!!

Sounds like your having issues with the files you download, I have gotten in the habit of not renaming the update file to just that until its on the usb card. Seen to many messages like yours if I saved one update over a prior with the same name. Try download 1.41 and 1.42 leave their names the way they are and save them to folder on your computer. Copy them bother to sd-card leaving names the same still. once both are there rename 1.41 to Update. Remove card from pc put in tablet. Use the recovery system method (press then hold power button method) do wipe, clear cache, the use update option. If this is successful which it should be delete the 1.41 file on card that you renamed to Update, this can be done on tablet or computer. Once that file is gone rename the 1.42 to Update and once again flash from recovery system.
Hope that solves your issue
Make it a habit to not save an update over top of another, though it seems like it would keep you from having to rename but for me it always seemed to corrupt the file.

thanks! I'll give that a try. I notice you said "PC", but I have a Mac ... could that be part of the issue ... downloading to Mac, then moving the file to SD or USB? (could be a stupid question, but if I don't ask, that makes me even more ignorant)

Do you end up with a folder or a zip file? Safari has a bad habit of extracting zips when it downloads them. Search my posts, there is a long ranting one that covers issues with both PC and Mac.

they're zipped ... I use Firefox 4.0, when the option comes up at download, I always click "save", not "open". Thanks, though.

well, problem solved. I ran Bestial's gapps patch over top of the new eLocity firmware and i have full functionality again. very happy mom here! now to reload all those apps for my boy! =D

Wow, I'm glad you found a solution...I have been following the thread and was getting worried.

I had the same problem after downloading the newest elocity update and then trying dexter's mod. I found out my problem is that I renamed the file "update.zip". If you just rename the file to" update" then it loaded fine. Not totally sure why this worked and maybe it was just my case, but maybe it will help some of you out!

No. Your problem was that you were using a windows machine and your file extensions were hidden (I am psychic, but don't worry, I won't tell anyone your pin number). She is using a Mac, no hidden file extensions.

How do you get to the gapps patch? I'm really having trouble getting any updates on my a7. seems like its not taking anything off the sdcard. i brought a new card and I'm still having the same issue.

Not advised for official ROMs, for custom you can flash it anyway you like. Though I think using CWM and flashing this should work... You end up with CWM recovery and an unrooted ROM. Correct me if I'm wrong...

done. worked perfectly.
theres this tiny black thing blinking on my wifi icon on 3.1....what is it.
seems to be little up and down black arrows like elevator buttons.

so all we have to do now is wait for the dock firmeware update next week?

I think the one pushed via OTA will have a higher build number

oh sweet. is that a 3.1 thing?
UPDATE: my youtube app, im not sure if it shows at 720 p or 1080p but i did a lonely island video thats 1080p and it didn't even skip. Testing the web-based version now.
UPDATE 2: seems the web based one in 720p is fantastic 1080p not so much. This does for both stock browser and dolphin beta 3.

Easier install method if you don't like fiddling around with the power button:
1) Make a folder called ASUS/Update from the root of your microSD card
2) Drop the .zip in there, rename to 'US_epad-user-8.4.4.5.zip' (not sure if the renaming is totally necessary)
3) If you're doing this on the Transformer itself, eject and remount the SD card. If on your PC, just plug the card in.
4) Click the update notification, it'll start the updater on it's own.

Does this wipe everything and leave you unrooted? Or is root kept as well as apps+settings? Now at Prime 1.3r2 (WW)

Updated from previuos ROM (120202) wiping only partition cache and dalvik cache, I don't know what is wrong but ROM was really laggy, USB storage mode didn't work, so I'm backing up to previous version. Maybe should try updating with full factory reset, but it would be to weird.

with full wipe USB mount storage working normally.
flashed this firmware but do not see any changes.

Translated this is his changelog...fix some lunar calendar and something about music and sd...who know..geno's cm's are great as allways!!

What about the sound, still ****ed up?

I don't know, but I wish to know if in next updates it's possible to keep data, because it's very annoing to reinstall all apps from titanium backup (free).
I have update my old Ideos (U8150) today and I don't wipe anything.
Good work to all devs!

It would be better if i had never done it... Stuck on Huawei flower after installetion. Nevermind, waiting for Aurora updates

Using this rom for more than two days.
No bugs found.
No restarts.
Antutu result with 1ghz 3105
with 1.5 ghz 3948
Wifi working as expected.
haven't found something wrong with sound, actualy could you point me what was wrong with it?
No exceptional battery drain noticed.
I am happy with it! however I am very waiting for kernel 3 for aurora

When the screen turns off, so does wifi for some odd reason. Is it just me or does anyone else have that problem?

Can I just flash over without wiping data?

Guide - How to get out of "stuck at boot animation"

Its now all over the development section where people are trying custom ROM and getting stuck at infinite bootanimation loop.
This, as explained by famous developer dhacker29, the f2fs file system is very sensitive and gets easily corrupted. This results in stuck at bootanimation.
Presenting the solution – One time, shut it all and noob friendly
Common steps
1) From your working ROM, copy all your sd card data somewhere safe (PC, pendrive etc)
2) Backup all your apps (you can use titanium back up or this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1581653)
3) Download stock firmware for all those “what if it goes wrong” issues.
4) Install drivers for Motorola devices
5) Download your favourite ROM
6) Install minimum adb and fastboot
7) Install TWRP (official support is now available)
The geek method
8) Format /system, /data and /data/media (I strictly mean format as simple wipes won’t do)
9) Now sideload your rom file
a. Advance in TWRP
b. ADB sideload and swipe to start
c. Connect to computer where you have installed drivers and adb
d. Start cmd and type adb devices – it should show your device
e. Now side load by typing adb sideload drive letter:\where\your\rom\rom.zip
10) Reboot to recovery
11) Now install ROM as normal
12) Wipe cache and dalvik and reboot
Non Geek method
8) Install stock firmware for your respective device using fastboot (there are tutorials that have the batch file which installs the firmware automatically by simply clicking the batch file)
9) Install TWRP recovery
10 ) copy ROM zip file and flash
Everyone is now requested to use the guide, help me improve it ans stop flooding dev section with same question over and over again.

Alternate Method : Noob Friendly.
First of all backup your sd card (i.e data/media)
Flash Philz Touch 6.26.6 Recovery
Hope you have OTG cable and a pendrive.
Copy the rom which you want to install on pendrive. Attach pendrive through OTG.
(backup your current rom on usbdisk. For this goto Backup and Storage. Find option backup on storage/usbdisk :good: )
Now, select Wipe Data/Factory Reset. It will ask Wipe to install new rom,tap on it. Say Yes.
After that goto Mounts and Storage and format /data and /data/media (/sdcard). Say Yes.
Done.
Now flash your favorite custom rom.
Select the option install from sdcard. Then select usbdisk. Select your custom rom and install it

Quickest way I think is to take a USB Drive and attach it through an OTG-Cable, then use ES File Explorer to copy all things to it..
Connecting to a PC through USB takes more time due to some limitations there...
UST OTG works good.. :good:
You can use WiFi Direct maybe..

I just bought a 64 GB (but actually 58.86 GB when I looked in storage settings) so I'm going to try this method either tonight or tomorrow night - the alternative method as I have philz recovery installed

I thought someone will eventually report the problem..
I think flashing the RetailGB firmware helped because it formatted the internal memory...

[Help] Repacking .zip file ROM into .nb0 file with heineken tool

Hello, I am trying to fix my bricked phone but I do not know how to repack the files to flash them with the OST. I have the program (crack by heineken) and the Android 7.1.1 stock ROM .zip. When I try to choose my unpacked .zip it tells "error: list not exist" and in the post where I got the tool it tells "edit files "list" of unpacked nb0 image, remove .md5 file from list". How do I create this list from my .zip file?
Thank you for your help and apologys for bothering you with such simple question but I don´t know much about this.

3320 should give you 2017 June's version, 3700 should give you state after the October's patch (the one with the RAM management bug).
Or vice versa. I assume higher number is newer version

When I start flashing process it works for short but then it says "reflashing service bootloader" and progress bar will not move anymore even after having computer and program on for one night. Before starting flashing I clicked "edit device information" and waited for error to appear and my flashing settings is "normal download; check device ap status". Do you know what do to?

BotoxNoob said:
What do you mean with "flashing settings"? I could send you a video tutorial how to unbrick your phone. Here is the link. Follow the guide. It's very simple. Hopefully I could help you and please tell me, where you can set up the "flashing settings".
Thanks

My version of OST is 6.1.2 and it has options to choose between choosing file and the process starting. The settings I have are the default choosed by the program itself when you run it.

BotoxNoob said:
OST 6.1.2 doesn't work. You have to use OST 6.0.4. I think, that's the problem. Please report me the result and good luck.

With the OST version 6.0.4. it get stuck on "flashing partition: ABOOT" then it stops and tells;
error code: 0xc6da
error: download fails
error=se_er_adb_cmd_get_fail_ result (0xc6da)
Again I am sorry if this is easy to fix problem and I am just stupid.

I have downloaded this too. But what I have to do with it?

BotoxNoob said:
Go to "C:/adb" and then drag all the files from the platform tools.zip in the "C:/adb" directory. Overwrite the files if you get asked.
Now, please try flashing with OST again.

I had to make adb fodler myself but it still tells me same error.

BotoxNoob said:
OK. Please delete the "C:/adb" folder. I'll send you an other reply, and then it should work.

Hello,
I hope this will finally fix your problem.
Make shure, you've deleted the "C:/adb" folder.
Let's start
First of all, download the 15 seconds adb installer.
Execute it and always press "Y" and confirm everything.
Once you've done that, download the latest "Platform Tools" (for windows).
After downloading, extract the archive. Now drag all the files from the "platform-tools_r28.0.1-windows" directory to the "C:/adb" directory. Overwrite all files if you get asked.
Now, boot your phone in "Download Mode" and connect it to your PC.
Open OST 6.0.2, click "Edit Phone Information", wait until it's done and then flash the nbo rom to your device.
If that does'nt work, I could help you via TeamViewer.
But no matter, good luck and report me the result.

There still is same error as always. Problem is my phone does not boot so I can not change setting for USB debugging. But now I have ADB program installed and I can wipe partition with if it corrupted, no?

Do you mean that USB Debugging is not enabled?

No. I never used it before phone stopped working so I never turned on.
Also, it start in downlaod mode when I plug it to PC.
And how can you not delete files by external access when device is turned off? This sounds like bad joke.

BotoxNoob said:
The problem is, for flashing partitions, you need an unlocked bootloader. But there's no official (and no free unofficial) way to unlock the bootloader on the Nokia 5. It's not a bad joke.

Think about windows doing this. After BSOD/crash/update error, for whatever reason, PC does not boot so you want to enter BIOS but it tells you to log in the administrator account. But you can not log in because all you can reach is POST screen (the black with the cpu and hardware information written). Would that not be stupid?
Also, you mentioned unofficial way? Nokia repair people did not find problem so this looks like only way for me. Can you tell me more?

BotoxNoob said:
....
That costs 5$. So, do you really want to buy this unlock file? I can't guarantee that this will help you.

The way you say it sound like ripoff... First I will ask coworkers if they know something. See, I work for computer service (windows, macintosh, linux) but I never work with android. Now I see why...

I'm so tired, that I couldn't help you. But the steps I told you worked for me. I'm so sorry
