Root [ACS] Star-ScROM for Transform Ultra

I had a stock Transform that I flashed with the version entitled Boost. I followed instructions, enabled USB debugging, et al. It reported injecting zerglings and then when it gets to the point of moving ROM, it cannot find device. Mine reboots. I have done it 4 times. I do not appear to have star settings so undoubtedly a portion at least failed. Anyone care enough to help? Thanks so much

Also, for a future version would you consider removing whatever obstacle make moving Outlook Contacts to the phone?

Thanks again, for all of your work...

I had this same problem with mine. I had the push it manually every time. I would push it myself using interdpths .bat file as a guide, just copy over the commands in a adb window. It was getting hung up trying to mount the system r/w. I believe the command was 'adb shell mount (sys r/w blah blah here)
. But if I did .......adb shell......su........mount (sys r/w blah blah here), it would take and I could exit out of adb shell and continue pushing the rest of the files.
 
I also had the same problem when running bat file. The Rom seems to be installing then phone reboots and device not found. Can someone help? I have no idea on how to push commands.
 
well, never was able to gain root access. It installed su and tb, but no root. Tried several times, and no go. any input would be good.

Just right click on the .bat file and copy the commands over into an adb window one by one. Just make sure you have the right path for them. When I get home in a half hour or so I could walk you through how I did it.
 
Exact same thing itdid to me. I'm going to help him go ahead push it manually, but can you think of any reason why it is doing this to us interdpth.

Ps: thanks for cwm, another case headed ur way when I get home.
 
tried twice to flash, both times I got just the glowing samsung that did not move past that. Thank goodness for CWM... Otherwise i would have been running back to best buy :D

Edit: did factory reset and works fine
 
I tried running as admin and command error zergRush missing. Make sure you extracted zip correctly.

I had al these problems too.. Had to push it manually too before it worked.
I wouldn't sweat it too much guys. now that we have CWM it makes things a whole lot easier. Next one that comes out will be flashable as a zip for CWM.
you won't have to run any files from the computer. just boot into cwm and install zip from sdcard.

Anyways, he is working on a new port for cyanogenmod so this ROM will probably be as it is

I feel you mavrikmeercat. And I don't even mind manuallly pushing them, I just feel as if my phones not right and maybe somethings screwed up. I'm also having serious problems mounting them system rw. Like for instance if I "adb remount" I get operation failed, but if I "adb shell" "su" "remount rw \system" if says it enables system rw, but when I try to push/pull from system I get permission denied. If tried many different solution from different forums but nothing works. And the long remount code "adb shell -o remount,rw -t \path here" gives a permission denied as well. Any advice/experience with this would be greatly appreciated as I'm about to give up.

ok What about if you run commands from the terminal app/emulator? try that and see if you get permission denied. of course your not gonna push/pull anything but try to mount system and such. if it works fine from the emu then it's adb on your computer that is the problem. try that and let me know what it says.
 
Id like to get a floashable version of this rom too but interdpth is busy with cyanogen mod right now and I definitily don't want to interupt that.

So I was able to run the commands in terminal emulator, but when I tried to push/pull in adb after mounting rw in emulator still got permission denied. So I said F it and factory reset, push stgar scrom again and now problem is gone. Weird. And I even factory reset after that and run the batch file for star scrom and it worked fine. I'm lost as to why this is but oh well the problem is gone. Also before thbis when in adb when I _adb shell_ _su_ I would get a dollar sign(can't find symbol and am slightly drunk) then if I _su_ I would get #. Now if I _adb shell_ I get #.

you running adb from a windows machine or ubuntu?

Might have been a problem with busybox. migh have gotten mess up diuring install or something. also check your USB cable and make sure it has good connection and ONLY use the samsung cable. both my mine and my wife's prevails and my TU are realy funny about that. aftermarket chords just dont work well at all.. had to order OEM ones incase originals break
 
Here you go guys. I took the Star-Scrom files and put them in a CWM flashable zip. I saw alot of people having trouble with the .bat file

It worked on my TU

this is the way the big boys flash ROMS, THEMES, hotfixes, etc. This is what CWM is for... Interdpth had to make a .bat script because we didn't have cwm yet. thanks interdpth!!! you are effin awesome!!

Dont need a computer anymore.
