i did lol and when i did that it wouldnt format data because of error mounting it

 

[GameTheory]

well thats not nice gt and no bueno trevor blah **** this phone lmao

Lol
Yeah it's not about being nice. I spent countless hours on the source code for the kernel so I don't want to donate it to any other projects. Would eliminate purpose of even having a thread for it.

Try a factory Reset after it is installed..

@Angablade
I finally got the stock 12b boot.img you needed. Let me know when you have it so I can remove this link...
link removed

 

[Angablade]

reset? try again?

I got it GT. IDK why this rom is being stupid? I'm going to edit the install to not even go close to /data... that way idc.. only reason it did was to clear dalvik-cache and stuff...

i just flashed this from Rooted I Firmware and home button works fine and i flashed gt 12B kernal and everything appears to be working normally thanks for the rom Angelblade

 

[ajamie234]

[Nirhazine]

Yeah I just saw my bad just trying to help

 

[ajamie234]

np me and angablade were testing stuff last night and it just didnt like the install and broke my sim card reader im so tired lol about to go to bed

 

[Nirhazine]

Sir Angelblade would you be able to send me the stock rom plz? or this one with all the bloat

 

[Angablade]

updated post? update post...

 

[Angablade]

Bumpo for update

included the stock google keyboard and the sicksky launcher

 

[giovannye]

Any clue if this would work on the tmo version?

 

[Angablade]

This will not. It should actually break your phone. This includes the baseband for metropcs and a few other things.

 

[giovannye]

Thanks. And sorry for asking so much

While flashing this in recovery CWM spits out this error message...

-- Installing: /external_sd/12B rooted stock rom update v2.zip
Finding update package...

Pseudo update...
Installing Data

format() expects 3 args, got 5
E: Error in /external_sd/12B rooted stock rom update v2.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.

Anyone know how to fix this?

EDIT: I've checked the integrity of the ZIP, and recopied the file onto my SD card again with no avail. I'll try downloading, and flashing the older version to see if that yields any difference.

 

[aaanadie]

I got exactly same error.

 

[TehFlash]

Flashing the older ZIP worked great, but I forgot to install another keyboard before flashing... and I factory reset so I have no way to login into the google store.

 

[Angablade]

Give me a moment, I just got home from work, lemme upload the fix.

updated with the script fix.

Let me know if anything else needs a bit of tweaking.
