Clear cache...if you're doing it via ROM Manager, select the option to clear Dalvik cache.

So in order to get from build 16 to the newest do I just wipe dalvik cache and install, nothing else?

[Redflea]

YES!!

;-)

That's correct. You can also wipe regular cache if you're doing it in ROM Manager...but only Dalvik is fine.

 

[andrewqueen]

Alright thanks! Should I flash 18 or stick with 16?

Droid 2

 

[Redflea]

I'd wait for 19 if I were you.

 

[andrewqueen]

Oh when's that coming out?

I was in the process of installing cm7 rom for the first time and i got an error when it said
updating radio...
assert failed: motorola.update_cmda_bp("/tmp/rdl
.bin", "/tmp/bp.img")
E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.

what do i do to fix this? i was using the all in 1 installer

GB has its own kernel.

Then two things. If the gingerbread uses a different kernel than froyo, how is it able to get past the locked bootloader? And why dont they base CM4 off of gingerbread?

1) The GB leak has it's own kernel, but we're able to load it because it is a leak of the official release. This leak must include in it the encryption code that "unlocks" the bootloader to load the new operating system. A "locked" bootloader simply means that access to it is encrypted.

2) CM IS based off of GB. CM4D2 is not based off of the GB kernel, it is still based off the GB Operating System though. (There is a video somewhere that CVPCS posted about how he went about doing this)

Its a read but its official from the man himself Still Loading ... » blog:2011-06-14:2nd-init._what_it_is_and_how_it_works
