Downgrade to 902 - No app or data loss

Which is why I've stopped doing so. My barrier to entry, and it's clearly stated in the OP, is that you've fully read and understood the OP *BEFORE* doing stuff. Nonetheless, THE biggest issue I've had is people decided to skip steps. Even though I quite clearly state that the HoB will not work if you do so. If I make it more difficult to skip things then I can wash my hands of dealing with that issue. Soon I won't have nearly as much time to devote to the HoB. It needs to become mostly self service. And to a LARGE degree it has for those that read. I may throw the advanced users a bone, but, they're going to have to dig for it. That's how I know if they're advanced or not.

Sounds like a great idea to me, I love to hunt for stuff! And I agree, the HoB is an awesome tool. All you need to do is read, download, and do the steps. You made it easy for sure. I know I appreciate the hard work you've put into it. I am sure I could've done it other ways, but I like the KISS idea the best...Keep It Simple Stupid.

 

[SamuriHL]

I don't code overly complex solutions unless I have to. I'm a minimalist developer. What that means is I'm not out to "prove myself" by writing stupidly complicated code. I've been coding for 18+ years now so that kind of nonsense doesn't impress me. Simple code is easier to maintain. And it won't be that hard to figure out how to turn on "advanced" mode. LOL. I haven't decided if I'll make people hunt for it or if I'll simply pop quiz you when you first run it. LOL.

Dang...I always did suck at tests. I will give it my best shot though!

 

[SamuriHL]

I'm not even sure if I'm going to change anything. I may. I may just leave it and tell people to suck it up and go read.

It's a bug I introduced with a recent overhaul I did. It caused a whole bunch of issues I had to clean up. Root being the last of them. It wouldn't necessarily affect everyone depending on how their system is set up. AFAIK, all the bugs I caused are now squashed and the HoB should be rock solid again.

Enjoy your trip our bricks will have to wait, LOL Maybe well have a good rain this weekend, we do need a soak'ing. :biggrin: Hopefully it's 244 not another one agaain:icon_ devil:

Gotta have priorities after all.

Cheesckake? Any new Leaks?

 

[bufordtpisser]

Maybe I am a glutton for punishment, but I have read all 242 pages of this thread. Every post. And I will continue to do so. Because it makes sense to know as much as you can about things that interest you or make your life easier.

And as for me.... Rum, 4g, and nascar. Woooooo hooooooo!

Try some of that new bacardi oakheart. I was impressed and I'm a bourbon drinker and usually don't care for rum, demon or otherwise.

Ready to pull my hair out, what's left that is.

I don't know if my phone is being stupid, my computer is being stupid or if I am being stupid but I am having a problem updating to 244. I am currently on 232 and I downloaded SamuriHL_HouseOfBionic_(6.6).exe, SamuriHL_HouseOfBionic_COMPONENTS_(1.0).exe and SamuriHL_HouseOfBionic_(244).exe. I uninstalled previous version of HoB and installed everything in the correct order.

I connected my phone to the computer with USB debugging enabled, connected as MPT and have a full charge. I started HoB from the start menu and selected :

1) Install 244

1) Transfer update to sdcard-ext

Then this is the message that comes up:

Looking for your phone...if this hangs, it's not finding your phone 
*daemon not running. starting it now* 
*daemon started successfully*

Transfer successful: MD5 hashes match.

Press any key to continue . . .

After that finishes I go into explorer and check the sdcard for the file and it is not there. Am I missing something or is the file actually not being transferred? I have tried this numerous times and each time the same thing happens. I have tried the front USB ports as well as the rear USB ports and nothing changes. I am at a loss and I hope someone can give me a hand moving to 244. I am tired of waiting for the OTA.

You may be looking in the wrong place, but most likely your manager has not refreshed and showed the new file.
