How to falsh PACman ROM: Post #2 Thank Langes
0. Do I need unlocked bootloader? YES
1. I'm going to post my question without doing a search.
Fine, but you'll just get made fun of, or infracted by one of the mods who use this mod. Searching is the first rule of XDA.
1. Search before posting.
Use one of our search functions before posting, whether you have a question or something new to share, it's very likely someone already asked that question or shared that news.

2. People have sometimes a bad attitude in this thread, or they ignored my question.
You broke rule #1, didn't you?
3. Why Youtube FC all the time?
Mabye it’s the latest youtube app problem. Try [APP] Youtube Apk For Ics/Jelly Bean [Version 3.5.5].
4. I didn’t hear music, ringtone, notification, etc. Why?
The steps for custom tones are:
create
sdcard\alarms
sdcard\notifications
sdcard\ringtones
At first time after the rom install if you choose rintone the ringtone is mute. Select one of the ringtones and press vol+ or vol-. The notification ringtone is mute too. Select one of the notification tone then press vol+ or vol-. The same relates to the alarm. I have only one alarm time, and my phone wakes me up every time.
In apollo if you play music at the first time, the sound is mute too. press vol+ or vol-..
5. I lost my custom ringtone/alarm/notification sound, why?
Are your custom sound int he right folder? See 4.
6. I don’t want a tablet look.
If you use pac 4.1.2 it doesnt have paranoidpreferences.apk (Search for any 4.1.2 PA rom, and extract paranoidpreferences.apk from it.)
The new 4.2.2 PAC has it, so you don't need to search for it.
Just go in setting/paranoid setting/apps select
Settings (com.android.settings) and change size to 240, layout 360px save, and hit ok.
select System UI (com.android.systemiu) and change to 240/360 px.
(setting and system ui take effect after you restart the phone)
If gmail/calendar and other apps are in hybrid mod, then change it to 240/360px too.
Or try this flashable zip: see original thread post 1519 don't forget to thank pluGinSz
7. Which gapps do i need? Can i use inverted gapps too?.
Yes.
Be sure you use the proper gapps.
for 4.1.2 roms you need "gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip"
for 4.2.2 roms you need "gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip"
Search xda for inverted gapps.
you can save about 30mb in the system partition by flashing the "Bexton" script (download here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...php?t=1831004) or you can modify justunbean's zip to remove the offending files...Bexton was good enough to list the files in his OP.

9. I'm on wrong baseband where can i find bb77, and how to upgare it?
I would like to update baseband from .70/.72. to .77,is necessary after update do something? Or is recommend to do full wipe (or maybe reflash ROM)?
The basebands are in sirkay's kernel thread. Thans to him!
Download from dropbox link the "ST18i_8x55A-AAABQOAZM-203028G-77_baseband.ftf" Copy it to [C:/]Flashtool/firmwares folder. In flashtool select Flashmode, select de baseban ftf file. (Turn off the phone, press volume down when plug in the usb) Flash it without fota, unchecked all wipe and checked no final verification. It's only the baseband, so it affect only for network signal. After baseband flashing just start your phone.
you can also use BB85, download link Thanks Langes
I tried the bb85 and found bb77 is the best, but you can give a try too
10. Where is the kernel?
The kernel (boot.img) is inside the zip. Don't unzip it, just copy the "boot.img" to the folder, where you can find it.
If you use another kernel, be sure you downloaded kernel for right jb version.
11. Can i use the rom with other kernel?
Yes you can. Some devs made a kernel for JB. But remember, that if you use other kernel, you must probably falsh his own wifi modules. Read and search in kernel thread for possible bugs.
sirkay's xKernel: xKernel JB v1.0.2 If you use it, don't forget to thanks him.
Lupus kernel by wedgess: LuPuS-_-JB.img If you use it, don't forget to thanks him.
FlyKernel by thomas1991_12: Flykernel JellyBean. Working from P.A.C. v16 and up, older (e.g. v15) not supported If you use it, don't forget to thanks him.
12. I've flashed [MOD][ICS]Camera Mod v.4.4 Cybershot Experience /
[Driver GPU Libs] New JB Adreno Driver For ICS Increase Performance
As in the thread name is, both is for IceCreamSandwich. Please read the threads! If you found it's for ICS, so it's "maybe?" not compatible with JB rom. If you found for ICS/JB roms, then you can test it for your own risk.
13 . Play store fc?
I had the same issue with PAC 15 and Google Play. What I did:
-wipe cache
-wipe dalvic cache
-reset permissions
-re-flash gapps

14. Can I use the PACman kernel in another JB ROM (FXP CM10 for example)?
Yes you can. The PACman kernel has a good selection of governors and schedulers, as well as OC/UV capability. The Wi-fi is also quite stable when compared with similar JB kernels. For any marriage to work, the wi-fi modules found within the PACman ROM zip archive (in folder: /system/lib/modules) MUST replace those within the ROM you want to pair the kernel with. If you haven’t installed the ROM the you want to use you can drag (not copy and paste) the files from the PACman ROM folder to the new ROM folder before you flash it. If you have already installed the ROM you want to use you can drag the files from the PACman ROM folder to the root of your SD card, then copy and paste them to the system/lib/modules folder on your phone using a root explorer (like ES), making sure that the system is mounted and the permissions of the files once on the phone are set correctly (i.e. check they are the same as the files you replace)… Remember to unmount system when you’ve finished and reboot.

15. my sim card is not allowed to its own provider! does anyone know what to do?
You can manually restore the APN.
or you can try and restore the apns-conf.xml by flashing the attached zip.....
if it doesn't restore automatically after rebooting, go into system settings->Wireless&Networks->More->Mobile Networks->Access Point Names
hit the menu key and then select restore default (this is also where you would find go to manually restore the APN, except you would select add new APN) attachment: see post: 1287

- thanks justmpm
I applied zip, but when I try to set up the apn's and go to settings --> wireless & networks --> more... --> mobile networks --> access point names it goes back to the main settings screen and so I can't set the apn's.
Make sure you turn off any sim card lock and then turn the phone off and on to make sure it is gone. Check to see if your apn sets up automatically. If that doesn't work make sure that your provider (including country) is listed in the apns-conf.xml (it is pretty legible if you open it with notebook+).

HOW TO USE FLASHTOOL?
Flashtool & Fastboot (XPERIADEV) or Ray Flashtool thread
HOW TO FALSH PAC ROM, IF YOU ARE A NEW ANDROID USER OR YOU UNLOCKED A BOOTLOADER FEW WEAKS AGO
Try this, slowly, carefully, exactly and in order.
1) Make sure you have a copy of the PAC ROM zip on your SD card.
2) Using Flashtool, install 4.0.4 in full, Do not exclude anything, all the wipe tick boxes checked.
3) Unplug your phone, do not turn it on.
4) On your computer, open the PAC ROM zip with WinRAR and DRAG boot.img to your desktop with your mouse. Close the ROM zip.
5) Holding volume +, plug your phone back in. The light will go blue. The Flashtool window will show connected in fastboot mode.
6) Open the Fastboot window in Flashtool and select kernel to flash. Pick the one on your desktop. Wait for it to finish (not long)
7) In the fastboot window, reboot phone into system.
8) Unplug the phone
9) The phone should start, if it doesn't then turn it on.
10) The PAC logo will appear. When the lights flash press Vol + and Vol - until the wobbly CWM recovery screen comes on.
11) do this from the menus:
Wipe data/ factory reset, then Wipe cache.
Go to advanced, wipe dalvik cache.
Hit back, go to mounts and storage, format system.
Hit back, choose zip to install, pick the PAC ROM from your SD card.
Leave the phone for about an hour alone.
Then install gapps from SD card using recovery. Pick reboot to recovery from power off menu.
You do not need xparts. The phone will go back into wobbly CWM screen. Choose zip from SD card. Choose gapps. When installed wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache again. DON'T FORMAT SYSTEM. Reboot.

Power saving
I added some lines to pac v16.1 build.prop to save more battery.
I maked it as flashable zip, so you don't need add lines manually to build.prop.
Download zip. Put it in sdcard root (or where you can find it on sdcard) Go in cwm, select "install zip from sdcard" select zip, reboot and enjoy.
This are the lines what i added:
Code:
# power saving
ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=0
# Saves some battery without reducing performances
wifi.supplicant_scan_interval=180
pm.sleep_mode=1
If you want to edit/delete some lines, or add your own lines just copy wechy.sh from zip, edit it with notepad++ (add your tweak line) copy back edited one into zip, and falsh it as i wrote above. Be carefull what you add to build.prop!
And of course: flash it at your own risk, i'm not responsible if you brick your phone... etc.
Hit thanks if i helped you.

Detailed step-by-step guide
Be sure your bootloader is unlocked
1. Download flashtool from this thread: Flashtool thread
If you don't fion the download link: http://androxyde.github.com/index.html?1353608331000 Go to "installation" and download Flashtool
2. Install flashtool.
3. Install drivers inside [C:/]flashtool/drivers restart your pc
4. Download boot.img from post #2
5. Download rom from original thread and download gapps from original thread too.
6. Copy untouched zips to sd card root.
7. Turn off your phone
8. Plug usb into Pc
9. Hold volume up when plug the other end of usb cable into phone (led lights blue)
10. Run flashtool, hit the lightning icon and select fastboot mode
11. Flash kernel YOU MUST SEE: "OKEY"
12. Disconnect usb cable
13. Turn on phone, go into recovery
And follow post #2 How to Flash PACman ROM (first time)
Battery saving tips:
1. See what's sucking the most juice. Navigate to Settings > About Phone > Battery Use to see an organized breakdown of what's consuming your phone's battery. Applications and features will display in a descending list of battery hogs. If you see an application you barely use or a feature you never use, uninstall the app or turn off the feature.
You can download BetterBatteryStats from xda
2. Turn unnecessary hardware features off It's great that today's phones have 3G, GPS, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth, but do you really need all four activated 24 hours per day? (Use toggles and enable/disable it)
3. Dump unnecessary home screen widgets and live wallpaper. Just because they're sitting on the home screen, seemingly inactive, doesn't mean they're not consuming power. That goes for widgets that poll status updates in the background, as well as ones that just sit there but look pretty and animated—not to mention animated live wallpaper.
4. Screen rotation - use with toggle. enable it, if you really want to with toggle
5. Google play store - Do you need realy that google play looks for updates in 24 h a day? Or you can check it manually when you are at home with wifi?
In playstore settings disable Notification, Auto-update apps, Auto-add widgets and Google AdMobs Ads.
6. Are you 0/24 on net? Enable with toggle only 2g, and disable it, when you use internet browsing mail download etc.
7. Keep an eye on signal strength. If you're in an area with low signal strength, the phone will work harder to latch onto a strong-enough cellular signal. This has an adverse effect on battery life. If your phone switching all the time from 3g to 2g, then you shoul enable only 2g, then the phone doesn't look for 3g network.
8. Most of widget/apps has a update time chooser. Set weather widgets/apps update time to 1 hour.
9. Sometimes i use Google maps, but location is off by me. If you dont want share you location with others then disable it in setting (so the phone does not attempt to determine your place on the basis of transmission towers)
10. I'm almost certain, that after turning wifi off the battery drain is much higher than normally...
justmpm I think this is pretty normal...it will depend a lot on how you set up you 3g/2g settings. Syncing, location tracking, and google maps can all really burn up the battery. If you don't want to fiddle around optimizing every little network app....you can use something like Green Power from the play store. You can set this up to turn off the wifi and data network when the screen goes off....the good thing about Green Power is that you can set it up to wake up every so often to sync your emails, facebook, and whatever else you want. When I have it installed, I usually have it off for 15 minutes and then turn on to sync for 1 minute (it will keep the network open until all the traffic is done, so it won't cut things off if they take > 1 minute to download). I think the default setting for this is off for 5 minutes, on for 1. Even these settings can really extend your battery if your wifi or 3g/2g networks are causing a lot of battery drain.

Hi all. I keep getting this error after rooting, installing SuperSu and TWRP. When I try to flash a ROM (any ROM), I get stuck. I've tried the latest Resurrection and CM ROMS. Will someone please help me past this last hurdle? Thank you!
I can't upload or link the screenshot but here's the info:
Can't install this package on top of incompatible data. Please try another package or run a factory reset.
Which I have done several times.
Backup ==> select all ==> Swipe to Backup
Wipe ==> Advenced Wipe ==> /System + /Data + /Cache Confirm "Swipe to Wipe" . Try installing again ROM

That did the trick! I put Resurrection OS on there and all is well except for finding a stable GAPPS build.
Not working for me, my device is KII-L21 on stock rom and I'm trying to install official CM13, my device is rooted and have twrp
If your device is wiped It isnt rooted.. Wipe it dont forget Cache partitions try again.

Bro, me sirvió. Muchas gracias
It really works, thanks dude
I think it all boils down to doing a format /system.
Next time I will try that!
Edit: I was wrong, the format /data is needed.
If I don't to the reset I am one of those that always gets error 7.
unmount ->system, data, cache :good:
As I already posted at https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70851854&postcount=534,
I am able to avoid the Error 7 (inconsistend data) by switching to gapps mini before installing the update.
Since the experiental build, I do the following within one TWRP session: install latest gapps mini, install the upgrade to latest lineage-nightly and reinstall latest gapps stock.
So far it works for me.
Do a clean install wiping system, data, cache and dalvik cache before flashing a new ROM is adviced, it will avoid most of problems. For the GApps, I recommend OpenGapps Pico version to install the minimal needed, then you can install the other Google apps you need from the Play Store.
Guys I need some help here. I'm running into the same TWRP error 7 situation. The phone is unlocked, and I've installed kiwi_twrp_3-21_recovery. The model of the device is Honor X5 (KIW-CL00)
I've tried flashing both ResurrectionRemix-M-v5.7.4-20161220-kiwi & lineage-14.1-20170419-nightly-kiwi-signed ROM, whether it's flashing from the phone's storage or from the SD card, both ROM are giving me the same error code.
I tried formatting the system, advance wipe function (Dalvik & Cache & Data & System), now I don't even have the default factory ROM on my phone, but I'm still getting the error 7 code.
Please help. Thanks in advance.

U need to edit and repack everything . And do remember that if u mess a single letter it will give an error
Thanks
Sure I wipe advanced by every attempt.
Twrp 3.1.1 the same problem.
But you have right, the Solution for me is not to unzip and zip the file for delete the "assert". Only the way to edit without unpack the File in the Ubuntu "ARCHIVMANAGER" works.
Now it is installed but now I am in a bootloop But this is an other Problem. One step after another.

So , plz upload the updater-script here . I will edit and forward u . Later repack everything as is, lets see if that works . If not , i will build a rom for u especially
Thanks its work fine now. It was my fault, I updated from Lollipop not from Nougat. So I used Huawei Firmbootextraktor extract system.img cust.img recovery.img and boot.img and on my SD I copy ../dload/update.app version B140 Android 5.1.1. Then the Handy started I updated EMUI 4.0 and Android 6.1. Now works my Handy with all zip files where I delete the asserts.
Maybe was the problem, in the assert is wrote "kiwi" and my Handy is a "KIW-L21"

Oh well no..flashed it from the app...as secondary ROM..
And I was able successfully boot android lollipop stockrom and Nougat Resurrection remix custom ROM as dual..I had no problem with that...and for RR ROM I selected extsd slot...so basically I could install in SD card...but failed in other slots..(slot 1.2.3 or secondary did not work for me.) And I did not try in data...

It is bcoz
Secondary slot is of system partition
and other 3 slots are of cache partition
as there is not enough space in all these 4 slots,it wont work.
And data slot is working for all roms.Extsd slot is working only for some roms as I tested.
And it is better to use twrp to flash.
no probleam if ur rom supports init.d (just flash the fix)otherwise u may face an assue of in switching rom,need to flash boot image of secondary rom manually.

Well twarp is for primary ROM right!! How can I flash it for secondary ROM??? Is their any option for that...because if I want to flash gapps for my second ROM..all I did was first patching the ROM selecting same slot in which my RR ROM is present and then flashing the file by logging into the primary ROM..

what the app does is it inserts some binary to handle the process of flashing into the zip files.
patch the zip files such as gapps or patches to the rom and give the same id as the rom,it will be flashed to ur rom(to which ro has that id).
and flashing the patched zip files from recovery will not touch the primary rom.binary will create create a chroot environment at /data/local/multiboot/slot-id/ and everything will be flashed into it...

may be ur using nougat rom.
its bcoz of special characters in board name.
to solve
backup your boot.img
unpack it using any boot.img unpack tool
edit boot.img-board using text editor
clear all the lines in that file
repack boot.img and flash
now it will not fail to update

Actually it was deleted, but according to my research, for dual boot, ram disk should be updated in both ROMs, but I noticed a problem with nougat ROM, I am unable to update RAMDisk in Nougat ROM, so when I dual boot it with MIUI, it goes in Boot Loop. But how can I update RAMDisk in Nougat?

check above comnts for update ramdisk in nougat roms.
but its not necessary to update ramdisk,it is required only to use boot ui.

You are welcome .. which TWRP recovery are you using ?
CATUVA21 made an awesome version for Oreo and it's working like a charm : https://forum.xda-developers.com/ma...nt/rom-emui-8-0-kangvip-mate-10-lite-t3784834 (check the second post) .. if you want to remove the data encryption you need to boot into TWRP then wipe - advanced wipe and check data only .. then select repair or change file system then select change file system ... Now you need to select EXT4 then swipe to change ... and then change it back to F2FS by selecting F2FS and swipe to change .. now you are done .. be carful as this will erase all of your data stored on your device .. reboot back into TWRP ... i've heard that flashing magisk right after rebooting to recovery keeps the device decrypted .. this works for taking a full backup including Data partition as well .... flash and format with care .. also make sure to have a backup Rom ready to be flashed via TWRP on your External SDcard in case something goes wrong .. hope i helped

OK, so guys some of us have been facing problems in flashing the MIUI modded roms, and the error “ur device is Raphaelin and this Rom is for Raphael” sorry I don't remember the exact statement but u got me right.
Well...below are the steps u can do to fix this error.
Prerequisite:
1. Your system must have 7zip installed
2. You should have a modded MIUI Rom
3. Little Attention
1. Download Your Modded ROM (eu, MIUIMIX, MASIK, MIUI MOD, MIUI PRO) and all other MIUI modded roms.
2. Right Click on the .zip file which u have downloaded.
3. Follow now....
Right Click on zip file > 7zip > Open Archive > META INF > com > google > android > right click on updater-script and choose Edit or F4
4. A text file will open up with some code stuff….
5. Now change raphael to raphaelin thats it. (in begaining, u have to change around 4 names in most of the Roms)
6. After changing the name, when You Close the Text File window, a pop will ask u to SAVE the file
7. Choose Save , then agan it will ask “Do you want to update it in the archive?” Choose OK
8. 7zip will automatically repack the zip file
9. Now u can flash this ROM without problems
Please help
I have unlocked my bootloader and flashed the twrp successfully but every time I try to flash a rom (tried to flash evolutionx 4.0 rom ) the twrp says “E unhandled flag wrapped key” and after flashing the rom it directly boots into fast recovery.
