NEW ICS leak .238

[SamuriHL]

This is why we prefer that when update zip files are posted the md5 comes along with it. Then you can match up the md5 with what you downloaded to see if it matches.

Samuri,
Can one revert to 235 from 238? If so could you tell me how? 238 is laggy on my bionic.

 

[SamuriHL]

The house of bionic can do it for you. I personally would use the REINSTALL 235 option rather than just the INSTALL 235 option.

Thanks for the quick response! Are you having the lag issues on .238, or is it just me?

No issues in 238 for me. Works great. Hope it's OTA personally. It won't be but, it'd be nice if it were.

Me too, Sammy Boy! I just used HoB a few hrs ago and dove deeper from .235 to .238. Absolutely no issues whatsoever thus far. W/.235, I had sound to completely drop out on me a couple of times. This was solved w/a quick reboot from ROM Toolbox, but to have to go thru that just to listen to some music was taxing nonetheless. Other than that, tho, .235 was stellar, and I never had so much as an inkling of another issue. Hope .238 treats me as well w/o the loss of sound issue...here's hoping.

Alright back on .235, but am wondering if I should try .238 again since nobody else is having the lag issues that I had.... beneficial to reinstall .238, do a titanium backup, factory data reset?

 

[SamuriHL]

TiBu is dangerous if you backup system data, as well. Just do the apps and app data. When you install 238, instead of wipe cache do a factory reset. Setup your system settings when it reboots, install root, TiBu, and restore your apps. That should be a fairly safe operation.

Thanks Samuri. I'll do this as soon as I get some more charge on my battery and let everyone know how it fairs.

Once the OTA is out that's what I'll be doing, as well. I've switched from using TiBu to Rom Toolbox Pro by JRummy. He's freaking awesome and it's a masterful program that everyone who's rooted should own IMO. Anyway, stick to the apps and you should be good.

I was able to successfully go from 235 to 238, manually with moto-fastboot. I pushed 238 boot.img, 905 system.img and 905 preinstall.img, however when i tried to push 905 grfs.img, it said unable to open grfs.img. No big deal because i was able to still go to 238 anyway without pushing the 905 webtop. Any idea what I did wrong? I typed moto-fastboot flash webtop grfs.img and also tried moto-fastboot flash grfs grfs.img, and it didn't work. I'm just trying to learn and didn't want to be just a button pusher, although i appreciate the hard work, i won't learn anything by just pressing buttons. Thank you.

 

[SamuriHL]

It's just moto-fastboot flash webtop 905_FXZ\grfs.img. So not sure what went wrong. This is why i like RSD. XML is much simpler to write.

 

[SamuriHL]

Oh, and P.S. If you wanna do stuff manually, you better learn how to make a boot.img from an update zip cause that's the only way you'll be doing the next update unless 238 is OTA.

 

[MikeSaya]

I don't think I could make my own boot.img. Looks way over my head. But I thought your new hob 4.0 can make the boot.img for us? Or am I wrong thinking that?

 

[SamuriHL]

Yea, it can do it. AddUpdate does exactly that. You have to do a couple things but it's pretty simple.
