Re: [LUG] Nexus 10 + Cyanogonmod

 

"which is touch enabled like Phillz
so nice and easy to use"

Ironically I turn touch off in Phillz Touch Recovery. The risk of tapping some destructive option terrifies me. Much prefer volume up and down for cursor and power/home for click. I just like being able to make it look awesome in the customise settings. Lol.

Awesome, loads more good advice from someone who has actually done this,
several times by the sound of it.

Just so you know, this is a standard Google Nexus 10 which is
manufactured by Samsung, and is most definitely a tablet rather than a
phone (although from the flashing standpoint, I don't imagine it makes
any difference: it's just an Android device).

Only took me a few moments to get back into recovery mode (using
recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.7-manta.img, which is touch enabled like Phillz
so nice and easy to use) and re-flash with cm-10.2.1-manta.zip which is
the latest stable version from a couple of months back. To my
surprise/annoyance, it has made absolutely zero difference and I'm still
looking at a suspiciously identical cyanogenmod loading screen. I would
have thought that the stable build particularly would have booted no
problem, so I'm suspecting operator error. Your advice about forcibly
wiping caches is jumping out at me, so this time I'll try Pillz and then
the same stable image.

I'm going to be really cross after all this if I end up getting a no-go
on cyanogenmod, and have to reluctantly fall back to a stock google
crapified version... This is actually more tricky than jailbreaking IOS
devices, to my surprise.

Thanks again,

Cheers
