both zips i get
updating partition details..done
installing '/path to zip'....
checking for md5sum, no md5 found
syslink ; some syslinks failed
error exdecuting updater binary in zip "/path to zip'


twrp 2860..

ideas?
cm11 and 12 roms flash without issue, so i know it's not a partition layout issue..

any other zips i can at least use that are sense based, with new layout, so i can pull carrier updates?

And you tried re-flashing the zip immediately thereafter?

Yes. Immediately fails. Reflashed it several times,. Fails within a split second.

Not sure what to do besides try a modified rim that runs sense. I'd love to stick with a stock rooted so it looks acceptable if I need to take the phone in for service (speaker, etc)

I have recovery log if you're interested. 1mb. Might be a fight to copy and paste that with a phone.

You could always just run the RUU and then install TWRP and SuperSU. That'll give you stock rooted.

At no point did I say I was fixing any zips :confused: . . .

I'm 2 devices removed from Jewel already. You can install the RUU via PJ75IMG.zip on sd card. Looks like that's your only option at this point, since you can't get the zips to install.

Out of the kindness of my heart, I made a couple of updates to the updater-script in the 4.13.651.4 deodex ROM. See if this one flashes: https://basketbuild.com/filedl/devs...wel_stock_rooted_Sense5_Android4.3_deodex.zip

I don't understand your reason of suggestion?

Phone works fine. Flashes all other roms OK. I just was interested in captains rip because it's basically a Ota pull.

But I managed with other sense roms to get prl/profile updates.

Obviously it's a software fluke in the zips,. Not the phone. No big deal.

I finally had a need to flash these stock rooted ROMs on my Jewel and came across all of the flashing issues. I have now corrected the zips and will be uploading corrected versions shortly.

I apologize for the inconvenience.

Okay, download links are refreshed with working versions. The ROM should now flash successfully. Hopefully they also work.

EDIT: Some permissions were messed up (invalid file contexts) causing data/mobile network to not be working. Just fixed that and am re-uploading now. Sorry about that. These should definitely work though, when they're done.

Don't thank me yet, lol - see my edit above. Had to fix some stuff, but uploading the fixed versions now and they should be 100%.

EDIT: Alright, uploads are complete! Now there should no longer be any issues flashing the stock rooted ROMs. If there are any issues, let me know!

Download and install worked great. 24 hrs now.
My sons have been using these devices since I upgraded 16 months ago.
Thank you for your time Capt.

So I just updated to the new partition tables, TWRP 2.8.7.0, and anytime I try to flash an AOSP ROM, I get a constant bootloop. I updated via the RUU because the PJ75IMG method wouldn't work for me for some reason. I re-unlocked my bootloader, but any rom aside from the stock one puts me in bootloop. I'm still S-Off, also.

partition scheme

Will this work with the cm12 (android 5.2) partition scheme? That's what I'm currently running and wondering if this version of stock is compatible.

Thanks-

    DISCLAIMERS:
    • This is an experimental (albeit stock) ROM.
    • You MUST BE S-OFF to complete this process!
    • Your internal storage will be erased during the process. If you have anything you want on it, back it up to an external location.
    • This process will change the partition layout of your device, meaning you will NOT BE ABLE TO GO BACK!!! You won't be able to use any ROM not based on the same partition layout - this means any/all Sense 4 ROMs and any/all AOSP ROMs.
      UPDATE: It is possible to go back to the old partition layout, but only via RUU, using the official 3.17 RUU from HTC's website or VipeRUU
    • If you've read the above and you're ready and willing to risk your device, you may proceed
    FINAL DISCLAIMER:
    • I will NOT be held responsible if something happens to your device while or after flashing any of these files! All flashing is done at your OWN RISK.
    • If you are ready to take responsibility for your actions, then proceed.
    Additional Notes:
    • I will not be writing these instructions for noobs! I expect that anyone wishing to perform this update has an understanding of fastboot commands and understands how PJ75IMG files are handled. I will NOT be explaining that here. IF YOU ASK, I WILL IGNORE YOU.
    ROM Details:
    • Software Version: 4.13.651.4 (Source: Official HTC RUU)
    • Rooted (thanks to Chainfire for SuperSU)
    • Busybox added
    • init.d support added
    • Tap & Pay enabled for Google Wallet
    • NFC icon hidden
    • Camera Shutter Sound option enabled
    • Deodexed version available
    Instructions for installation:
    1. Download firmware+recovery file & your choice of ROM zip.
      NOTE: It is recommended to update via RUU rather than installing the firmware from this thread.
    2. Place downloaded ROM zip on external SD card for later use.
    3. Install firmware+recovery file via HBOOT or fastboot. This will update your HBOOT (2.10), your radio (1.13.11.1105) and some other important firmware bits, and install TWRP Recovery. This version of TWRP has been modified to accommodate the updated partition layout for this update. Make sure you remove or rename any PJ75IMG files from your external SD card after this step.
    4. Boot into recovery, and wipe all partitions except SD card. If there are errors, ignore them for now.
    5. Reboot recovery.
    6. Flash via ROM zip via TWRP. If the TWRP gives an error and reboots, hold the volume down button to get back to the bootloader, boot back into recovery, and flash again. It *should* flash fine on the second attempt.

    Block 38 is now all userdata, and serves as emulated storage at /data/media rather than the previous (odd) setup where /data was at block 37 and was only 2GB, and block 38 was formatted as FAT and as an SD card. I think this way makes a lot more sense, personally, and is consistent with how the newer devices and Android versions handle storage.

    The ramdisk setup for the new storage setup is below:
    Code: 
        # setup the global environment
    # See storage config details at http://source.android.com/tech/storage/
    mkdir /mnt/shell/emulated 0700 shell shell
    mkdir /storage/emulated 0555 root root
    mkdir /storage/ext_sd 0000 system system
    mkdir /storage/usb 0000 system system

    export EXTERNAL_STORAGE /storage/emulated/legacy
    export EMULATED_STORAGE_SOURCE /mnt/shell/emulated
    export EMULATED_STORAGE_TARGET /storage/emulated

    # Support legacy paths
    symlink /storage/emulated/legacy /sdcard
    symlink /storage/emulated/legacy /mnt/sdcard
    symlink /storage/emulated/legacy /storage/sdcard0
    symlink /mnt/shell/emulated/0 /storage/emulated/legacy

    export EXTERNAL_STORAGE2 /storage/ext_sd
    export EXTERNAL_STORAGE3 /storage/ext_sd
    export EXTERNAL_STORAGE4 /storage/usb
    export EXTERNAL_STORAGE5 /storage/usb

    # create mountpoints
        symlink /storage/ext_sd /sdcard2
        symlink /storage/usb /mnt/usb

    Bugs:
    • Phantom app icons may appear in app drawer after uninstalling certain applications. This appears to be related to apps that install automatically to sd. NOTE: This is an issue with the base. Workarounds: Uninstall phantom apps from app drawer by dragging icon to the top of the screen, or hide the phantom app icons.
    • Airplane Mode Toggle (Widget) opens Settings instead of toggling Airplane Mode - this is a bug in the base

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):

    Q1: Do I have to use the recovery you posted?
    A: Yes.

    Q2: Can I use an older RUU to go back to Sense 4/AOSP?
    A: Yes. See links in first post.

    Q3: I'm getting "no root access" on my apps. How to fix?
    A: Flash SuperSU in recovery.

    Q4: Where are the downloads, already?
    A: Post #3.

    Q5: Can I just update my firmware and keep my current ROM?
    A: NO. Once you update the firmware your partition layout will be changed and any ROM not using this base will not work.

    Q6: Do I need to backup my SD card?
    A: This process will not affect removable storage (i.e. SD card).

    Q7: Will I be able to restore nandroids of old ROMs after flashing this?
    A: NO. This will completely change your partition layout, so NO OLD ROMs WILL WORK (unless you first RUU back to the old layout).

    Q8: My bootloader says "TAMPERED" after flashing the firmware. How to fix?
    A: Just ignore it. It's no big deal. If it truly disturbs your essence, unlock your bootloader.

    Q9: Can I flash a custom bootloader to get rid of the red text and make my phone say "LOCKED" again?
    A: Only if you use HBOOT 2.10.0000 as the base for customization (there are no custom bootloaders for this version yet). A bootloader with the red text removed is attached to Post #3.

    Q10: How come after I flashed the firmware my bootloader is LOCKED and fastboot isn't working?

    I threw a quick zip together of the pertinent files that changed between .3 and .4. I'm testing on the Sense 5.5 port currently, but it should obviously work on this ROM.

    Probably back up first (I clean flashed) myself.

    Here are some additional mods. The first are SystemUI.apks that remove the GPS reticle and show true 1x and 3g icons. The second are SystemUI.apks with those mods plus a battery percent mod.

    I wanted a battery mod that overlaid the percent over the stock battery icon. However, all the themes, mod packs, and xposed modules that had a stock with percents icon used scaled versions of icons for the HTC one, which look blurry when scaled to fit our 720p screen. This battery icon was edited at the pixel level to be perfectly sharp, including the use of pixel art fonts. It really makes a difference on the screen. It uses 100 1% increments for the battery level, including the exact correct level on the bar. The charging animation is also perfectly smooth, using 100 steps instead of the 10 steps in the stock battery icon.

    Here is an animation showing the icon (it looks smoother on the phone than in this GIF):
    attachment.php


    Examples of it in use:
    Screenshots.png

    Attached are no-gps-1x3g-batpct-systemui_v3.1.zip and no-gps-1x3g-batpct-systemui_v4.1.zip, which are flashable systemUIs with this battery mod, no GPS reticle and fixed 1x and 3g indicators (thanks @drob311 and @debarron). v3.1 is for 4.13.651.3 and v4.1 is for 4.13.651.4. The SystemUI.apks are zipaligned and have optimized PNGs.

    EDIT: The V3.1 and V4.1 files have a working 1x/3g mod, thanks to debarron's work reverse engineering sin's eq mod


    I've also included BatteryPercentDrawable.zip, which includes the images and xml files if you want to incorporate these icons into your own mod, and BatteryPercentSource.zip, which includes all the components (numbers, bars, backgrounds) and the scripts needed to build the animation frames using ImageMagick. Feel free to use these however you see fit, just credit me if you do.

    Finally, I've included 1x3g_and_GPS_Mods.txt, which details the smali changes to HtcGenericNetworkController.smali and LocationBasedServiceController.smali for 1x/3g and GPS (again, credit goes to @drob311 and @debarron), as well as a batch file to help you with decompiling and recompiling SystemUI.apk.
