[Q] Need some help

[beston94]

Hi there guys,

I was bored one day and decided to bring some life back into my xoom. So I just stumbled upon this rom "[ROM][4.4.4] OmniROM - Wingray - bigPart" and decided to flash it.

Upon following all the instructions carefully and precisely, I tried to boot into the rom. However it didn't boot at all. So then I followed instructions as to get back into my original rom which is "EOS-wingray-3.0" (Most stable rom ever by the way".
The instructions were rather simple, I think. Flash your original recovery,which for me was "recovery-clockword-touch-6.0.2.7-wingray-signed.zip". I flashed it and tried to flash my EOS-wingray-3.0.zip, but it didn't boot.

So here I am stuck with no rom booting on my XOOM. My question is, how do I get a rom to boot on my XOOM again.


With regards,
Beston94


PS: When I try to wipe data/factory reset, and I get this:

"-- Wiping Data...
Formatting /data....
Error mounting /data!
Skipping format
Formatting /cache
Formatting /sd-ext
Formatting /sdcard /.android_secure...
Error mounting /sdcard/.android_secure
Skipping format...
Data wipe complete.

Hi Beston,

I was possibly the one who gave you the instructions for installing the Omnirom Wingray Android 4.4.4 Rom.

I hope that you didn't follow the instructions given in the first post there.Following those could get you into trouble because of the fact that both the version of GAPPS and the Supervisor software are very dated, and will leave you with an inability to get your Rom to work.

If you want to try this install again, I'll be happy to walk you through it. Honestly I just love the latest Omnirom 4.4.4 iteration (20140806). The only issue I might have with it is that you can't, as a norm, run program apps from the external sdcard.

If you'd like to try installing this again, I'd be happy to walk you through the installation.

In the meantime, going back to the Gingerbread Rom would,I believe, be a big mistake, and is a lot of work. Too, many of the newer apps would not work with it. I can, and will help you do this though if you'd like.

Blessings,

Rob

Hi there rob,

Just to clarify the EOS 3.0 rom isn't a gingerbread rom. I believe it's a jelly bean rom. Anyway thank you so much for replying. However, I somehow managed to fix it just this morning .

But I would love to get my XOOM to 4.4.4. I'm sure the speed of the device is improved beyond recognition. (Hopefully). And the applications not being able to run on the external sd card is not a problem for me, as I've got the 32gb version and I don't really play that many games.

So what I'm saying is, I'd really appreciate you walking me through the instructions to correctly install the 4.4.4 Omni rom.

With regards,
Beston94

I'm sorry, you're right. The Android 3.0 Rom is a Honeycomb Rom. 4.0 is ICS, 4.1.2. became Jelly Bean, and 4.4 is Kit Kat. I'm on my way to serve at my Church all day today, but I'll get back with you on Monday.

Blessings,

Rob

That's fine. No need to worry about it mate. Just do it when you can. I appreciate nonetheless.
