Guest digital0 Posted July 26, 2011 Report Posted July 26, 2011 Well, I'd try another browser (Firefox or Chrome).
Guest Ray-man Posted July 26, 2011 Report Posted July 26, 2011 (edited) Well, I'd try another browser (Firefox or Chrome). Just tried using Google Chrome - Same results so downloaded JZIP. - The first unzip appears to have worked well, no errors and the IMG file is listed in the image folder. I'll check the other downloads just to be sure but right now it looks like another item to thank Mr Gates organisation for! I have now downloaded from several more links in this thread, including the all-in-one version where my problem first showed up and all have unzipped without any errors. Will still need to run MD5 but didn't get that far before so I'm unlikely to revisit this particular post for further updates. I will post again later in this thread once I've completed the upgrade. Edited July 26, 2011 by Ray-man
Guest Ray-man Posted July 26, 2011 Report Posted July 26, 2011 (edited) Sounds like the download is corrupt, try again & test the md5. You'd be better off with the latest CM7 nightly anyway, it's more up to date, get the Gen1-to-Gen2-TPT-v8-custom.zip from the first post, then the latest cm7 nightly from here http://download.cyan...m/?device=blade and the google apps package from here: http://goo-inside.me/gapps extract the tpt zip file to your sdcard & copy the other 2 zip files. Do the TPT first, it'll start up in clockworkmod, use that to flash cm7, then gapps. Whatever you do, don't try to flash a TPT that has errors when you extract it & always double check all the md5sums. Flashing a corrupt TPT can kill your phone. I finally found that it was Windows Explorer unzip that caused the problem. Changed to JZIP and that sorted it. I think have now successfully updated using the above methods (Everything was verified with AFV and all were fine) and flashed the latest nightly (143) and gapps. Everything went well and the phone is now running but I have encountered one problem. I can't get the Android keyboard to appear, when I try to sign in to gmail or enter the access code for my home network I get the 'Select Input Method' message (Android keyboard is the only option) but it doesn't launch when I select it, just returns to the highlighted text box. I followed the update procedure very carefully but noticed that although there is an instruction to wipe data, there is no instruction to wipe cache, so I only wiped the data. Hopefully you will be able to advise what to do next. Thanks. NOTE TO ALL NOVICES LIKE ME: Please see my later post before attempting this upgrade! Edited July 28, 2011 by Ray-man
Guest wbaw Posted July 26, 2011 Report Posted July 26, 2011 It should only come up with the 'select input method' if you press on the text box for too long, you just need a quick tap to start typing.
Guest Ray-man Posted July 26, 2011 Report Posted July 26, 2011 (edited) It should only come up with the 'select input method' if you press on the text box for too long, you just need a quick tap to start typing. Yes, I've discovered that the phone's a lot more responsive now. THE FORMAT OF THE REMAINDER OF THIS POSTING HAS BEEN CHANGED AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ADDED ON 27/07/11. Below is a list of the problems I have discovered with my phone since upgrade.Unable to logon to my home wifi (BT Homehub 2). - Status shows 'Obtaining IP Address' but doesn't get beyond that. Can successfully logon to BT Openzone and BTFON, which may also be connecting via my home hub.Logging on to Gmail is no longer possible inside the house (Not a problem before the upgrade). Connection possible from outdoors but with frequent dropouts.3G reception is now virtually non existant.Unable to access the phone SD card via USB from PC - 'USB connected' shows at the top of the phone display then changes to the USB symbol (Prior to upgrade it was necessary to select 'Mount' via a popup on the phone), the phone also indicates that it's charging. The PC acknowledges the USB connection and McAffee gives option to scan, but I cannot gain access using Windows Explorer - PC prompts to advise 'Load disc in drive F:' This method was successfully used previously to load the upgrade downloads onto the phone. THIS NEXT PART IS A 'MUST READ' FOR ALL NOVICES LIKE ME! At this point I finally realise that I have no idea what to do next. I could put the SD card into the PC to load the files that restore from GEN2 to GEN1 then restore the phone and start again - but hold on, I don't know what went wrong when I did the upgrade so how can I be sure that I'll get the restore right and that could be disasterous. I also don't know if the restore process can be used if the previous upgrade wasn't entirely successful so I'm really sunk. The point I'm trying to make here is that these items are produced by dedicated enthusiastic members who kindly offer to share their work with others but there are no guarantees. Assuming that they are available they may be willing to offer further assistance when things don't go as expected but they cannot be expected to provide limitless support, especially when they won't know exactly what you did or didn't do! SO IT'S WORTH THINKING ABOUT THAT BEFORE ATTEMPTING SOMETHING YOU DON'T FULLY UNDERSTAND!!! That said, I'm still hoping that I can get the problems resolved (2.3.4 is a great improvement) so would appreciate further advice on how to move forward - I'll be keeping my fingers crossed! Thanks.

I want to move from SS5 to GSF, is there any point in prior to that updating my phone to this v8 Gen2 upgrade over a previous version of the same (think it was v4)? If yes, then can I just install it or do I need to go back to Gen1 first?

Guest tyrol_gangster Posted July 27, 2011 Report Posted July 27, 2011 k0zmic: thanks, but I know that (how to install another ROM), the question was if and how should I update the Gen2 firmware from wbaw from an older version to v8.

I guess you can, but I don't know whether there are any real advantages to upgrading to v8. I'm guessing there aren't, other than maybe newer files in the firmware from the official operator updates. Edit: Also, it seems from v5 the system partition size became 160MB to fit larger ROM's like CM. In that case, you may want to upgrade to v8 to change your partition layout.

Guest emerald123 Posted July 29, 2011 Report Posted July 29, 2011 This will convert your Gen1 phone to Gen2 & boot into ClockworkMod for you to install your rom. You will lose your data. Make any backups you want first. Gen1 nandroid backups wont restore on a Gen2 phone. Always check MD5s, one way to do it is to download AFV (Android File Verifier) from the Android Market, search for AFV. It is for European Gen1 ZTE Blades, Orange San Franciscos, Sapo A5s & Base Luteas sold with Android 2.1 Eclair only. None of the downloads on this page will work if your phone was sold with or operator upgraded to Android 2.2 Froyo. In that case, you already have the upgraded radio firmware. This is a safer alternative to the operator 2.2 upgrades which keeps some of the good features of Gen1 (like fastboot mode, tpt mode & extra storage space), but upgrades everything necessary to run Gen2 Android 2.2 Froyo & Android 2.3 Gingerbread roms.

Check the md5sum of that against the source (you can use AFV for this). Unzip this Gen2 TPT zip file to your sd card, it should create an image directory. Check the nandroid.md5 file in the image directory on your sd card using AFV on your phone (long press on nandroid.md5 file, then Verify Nandroid Backup) Power off, wait a few seconds, then power on with menu & vol+ held. It should take a few seconds to flash the new Gen2 firmware (you should see some green text), then it should reboot into ClockworkMod recovery, use that to wipe data & then install your Gen2 rom. Once installed, remove the image directory from your sd card, to prevent accidentally reinstalling. Once you have installed this just vol+ & power on will send you back into tpt mode if there is an image directory, even if you needed menu & vol+ before. Like my work? Donate here: Gen1 to Gen2 All-in-one custom rom upgrade TPTs These are all in one rom + gen2 radio firmware + clockworkmod installs for 'Gen1' ZTE Blades & Orange San Franciscos which were sold with Android 2.1 (Eclair).

To install: Unzip the file to the root of your sdcard, it will create an 'image' folder. Check the integrity of the files using AFV (available from android market) to find the nandroid.md5 file in the image directory, then long press on it & verify nandroid backup. Turn off your phone, leave it for at least 30 seconds, then hold menu & volume + when you power it on. You should see some green text (may be just a blank screen) then it should reboot & you should see a big android while it is performing it's first boot (this will take a while). Once it has successfully started up don't forget to delete the image folder on your sd card, to prevent any accidents.

Guest targetbsp Posted August 1, 2011 Report Posted August 1, 2011 (edited) You're meant to be there. That's Clockwork Recovery. Updating to gen 2 leaves you without a rom so you use this to install a rom of your choice. What file are you trying to install? Sounds like it's not a valid thing to be installing. You should be choosing install from zip (as you are doing) and selecting the gen2 rom you downloaded to the sd card. If you didn't put one on there... download one (CM7 or GSF or SS) and copy it on using a card reader then use install from zip to install it. Edited August 1, 2011 by targetbsp

Anyway Good luck, I know how frustrating it is when things don't go as expected, especially when no-one responds to your queries! Oops, I see that you've already got a response, lucky you. You may not need this one anymore. Edited August 1, 2011 by Ray-man
