Possible alternate ICS rom for 7022

[Kiiv]

Yes this is what I would do, but I don't know how to split the .img file either...

EDIT :
Or maybe, if someone speeks german, we can ask for a dump here : http://www.android-hilfe.de/cat-nova-forum/ ^^

Nice, thanks for your help

Ok got home, split the image for you and unpacked system, I am uploading now, I added a quick cwm script, if for some reason or other, you get an error you might need to adjust the update script, I have no way to test, but this should work as is. You need to already have German version install cause you will use it's kernel.

Awesome man, thanks for all your help. Will download and test shortly. I tried to do it myself but when i flashed my zip the only thing that i noticed that changed was the apps that came with the cat nova ics had been installed. Most likely I made a mistake somewhere though.

Ok so i flashed the zip, and it installed fine. When i reboot it never gets past the coby screen it just stays there for a while and boots back into CWM.

in cwm do a factory reset then see if it boots, also see if you can get a logcat during boot.

Did factory reset in CWM still won't boot. Only thing logcat shows during boot is this line

link_image[1936]: 806 could not load needed library 'libc.so' for '/system/bin/sh' (load_library[1091]: Library 'libc.so' not found)CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE

Will do. Do I need to flash lk.rom, or just the image? It's a FWDN update package and I haven't had much experience with this type of flashing.

Read the whole thread... Not only the first and the last post... It should be better for the health of your tablet ^^

@ryancut : can you tell me the size of your system partition on 7022 ? (you can see it with titanium backup or system info pro)
On 8127, it's only 188Mo.
The system directory of the cat ROM is at least 202Mo so it doesn't fit. I will need to trim it. Maybe you had the same problem so the installation does not succeed.

@Vampire : thanks a lot for your help !

sounds like the rom isn't compatible with the German kernel. I guess you could flash the cat kernel and see what happens it's in the fwdn image also.

Yeh in titanium backup it says the system rom is 188mb.

@Vampirefo, yeh i was doing some research on an xda thread and the guy that ported CM7 and cwm to telechips said that the german ICS uses the old GB kernal, so that's probably the problem.

To check your system partition size either via adb or terminàl type.
Make sure system is mounted.

busybox df -h

busybox df -h

in adb /system is reported as 180.0m

 

[vampirefo.]

That sounds like your system size not system partition size, should be around 300mb. What percent of partition used?

 

[ryancut]

This is what I get when i do "adb shell df -h" in adb. (using windows for this)
