Well, I installed it today on a clean Mirage install for my main phone, and everything went fine but I have a few more questions: 1. Was I supposed to run "Wipecache" at some point? The only time I saw it mentioned in the directions is when you said to not use the option in the recovery...

To be clear, an important note for people using the TWRP 2.8.0.0_multi_thunderc recovery on a ROM different than the [ROM+Kernel][CM-11.0][4.4.4][OS2SD/internal][f2fs]bigsuperROM-thunderc-4.4.4 (meaning ROMs without the unique multiple partition setup he uses): When you load the TWRP recovery...

I was using the recovery Andy recommended, Flashable CWMTRecovery_5.0.2.7-th7_thunderc. I also tried ZenGarden-Touch-Recovery without success. At this point, I had my Mirage ROM flashed. I installed TWRP2.8.0.0_multi_thunderc and tried to install the modded 1.1, and it still didn't work, but...

I didn't quite understand what a Nandroid backup was, but now that I do I was able to try ToucanScrypt on a fresh copy of the Mirage ROM on my spare VM670. All of the following was tried on this fresh Mirage install copy. I tried both the 1.1 and the 1.1 alternate zip files, but unfortunately...

I tried both ways, since your instructions and his dovetailed as to the appropriate time during the process for the install. He just says use wipecache.zip, while yours say to use the Toucanscrypt 1.1.zip. Unfortunately, neither the as-downloaded or the modded w/the binary swap versions...

Oops, forgot to mention that I tried your suggestions but they didn't work. That's why I started exploring. Signature Verification - it was off, but I turned it on and, when that install didn't work, I turned it off again and the install still didn't work. Tried it with the stock and modded...

I just downloaded "Storage Partitions" again, and it says: mtdblock0 boot | xx | Not mounted mtdblock1 cache | yaffs2 | /cache mtdblock2 recovery | xx | Not mounted mtdblock3 splash | xx | Not Mounted mtdblock4 FOTA_STO | xx | Not Mounted mtdblock5 system | yaffs2 | /system mtdblock6...

Aah, didn't realize I didn't have to keep reflashing. I already lost an sd card that I had repurposed from my SanDisk player on Wed. Was probably a decade old anyway. Now that I know I can carefully play around inside the recovery, I discovered a log file. When I viewed the log file, it...

Should I be pasting the "Updater-script" too?

No dice. It just says: Finding update package... Opening update package... Installing update... Installation aborted. This was a fresh install, and I used the recovery to try to flash the modded (with the binary file) alternate file you provided in post 48.

Nope, I caught that. At least the error message for that one had some information, although I have no idea if it means anything to you. The rest of them just didn't work. I'll try it again, and I will only use your unaltered-by-me alternate file - what I'm doing is, when I reach the spot in...

OK, at this point I'm pretty sure it isn't me. I've done multiple clean installs, repeated pasting in the binary file in case I screwed that up, every variable I could think of was tracked and checked. Was I supposed to copy the "update-binary" file into all of the Toucan files, or just...

Thanks for the file! Unfortunately, trying the modded Wipecache didn't work, nor did trying a full Toucanscrypt install with the modified files. I'm going to reinstall the Bean Whiz ROM from scratch and try again using your new files only, to see if the previous attempts caused problems. In...

My Bean Whiz VM670 says 5 is system and 6 is userdata. Is there a way to change this on my end, so you don't have to go to the trouble of a custom file? Unfortunately, "Storage Partitions" doesn't work with my VM670 Mirage ROM (2.3.7) phone. I downloaded AParted since it was the first...

Thanks! I've done both steps. It appears that the sd partition I made with ZenGarden (1.43gb on a 16g card) is ok, I only have two external partitions listed and nine internal (about which I'm clueless). Just let me know what you're looking for. I appreciate the help! Also, will I be able...
