If you flash one of the zips from this thread you will have the stock ROM with exception of Clockwork still installed.

It only formats the system partition, so if you want your data wiped you would have to do that manually.

Help please

Hello, I am not inexperienced with all the epic mods so I can understand most of what's being explained. Long story short had to odin my epic back to stock. I only had time to root it, not to put clockwork back on from my computer. I'm stuck on 24hr duty now and I have all the files from clockwork on my phone. I want it back on so I can use my favorite rom while I sit here. So... is there any way that I can install clockwork from either terminal, or through stock recovery? Thanks ahead of time.

Ps before I get the why didn't you search. Well I have... I can do it manually through adb but I don't know how through terminal if it's possible. Or hopefully someone can point me to an update.zip compatible with stock recovery

Not recommended - ROM Manager's install method is hackish.

Use the One Click Clockwork flasher. Unlike ROM Manager, it drops Clockwork right in bml7, where it belongs, replacing the stock recovery. No custom kernel needed.
I have tried rom manager. Several times. Each time it tells me it has an error with downloading clockworkmod recovery.

Lol, I would but my entire problem is that I do not have a computer at my disposal. I appreciate the responses though.

Also, I was wondering if there was a way I could use the one click script in terminal?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Oh and I got rom manager to download the file but when I try to update.zip from stock recovery it says somthing like cannot be verified as whole file.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I has the same problem as op. Its best to do the one click root with clock work mod in it. I found it to be easiest after many problems with z4root and rom manager. You will need a computer though.

Thanks for the try guys. I ended up getting to a computer and I'm back on track.

Galaxy s i9000 scrolling through screens is delayed

I've notice when in the applications menu that when sliding through screens its not very responsive and is delayed, im running stock 2.2 that's rooted.
Any ideas?

Its called lag, flash a kernel with lagfix, enable lagfix, job done, no more lag!

try using sgs kernel flasher from the market edit. If you are soft bricked then easiest solution its to reflash your rom, though in this case as you bricked with a lagfix you will need to make sure that you use a pit. file too in order too repartition your sd card, don't panic, fixable

What im thinking is I wiped internal data using recovery mode which whoops deleted clockwork recovery lol so I cant flash the cmw files so im going to get odin and reflash stock 2.2 with speedmod kernal which should do the trick

This. Grab the update.zip from the noob guide and boot into default recovery and reinstall packages twice and it will install clockwork and you can flash whatever rom you want

If you're on stock 2.2, this doesn't work, yet everyone seems to spread this method like it's the end all be all.
You need to have either modified 3e, or 2e recovery for it to work. Easiest is to Odin to jfd, then use the update.zip method.

This has been the easiest method for me...
This method worked for me:
Odin back to 2.1 eclair
Then get root with z4root mod.
Then install CWM from rom manager
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
I also used the noob guide to root which involved using the update.zip file. It involves using Odin to get back to stock 2.1, and then using the update.zip to install Clockwork recovery mod. From there you need to flash a rooted ROM to get root privileges. The method is very reliable in my opinion. The "Noob Guide" is excellent for starting to learn things like root and many others. Its in the Q and A section of the vibrant forum. Good luck!

Need stock kernal

I've been using yargs for about a month now and always seems to have problems with my WiFi dropping. I made a cwm backup before I flashed yargs but would hate to have to revert my phone that far back.
I'm on newest ota rooted and unlocked.

Restore just an earlier system to restore kernel.
I have not seen a stock zip but I bet arrrghhh's Q kernel thread has one.

I think you could RSD straight to the OTA without wiping data. That should work. Or you could extract the boot.img from the RSD and flash it via fastboot

Thanks for the solution but I was hoping for a flashable zip. I have yet to dabble with RSD and am sorta nooby with this stuff.

Checked out his thread here on xda and didn't see the RAZR m stock kernel.
I have a cwm backup from when I was using stock kernal. Anyway I can extract just the kernel from that?

No. But you can restore just that system. Wipe dalvik & cache, not data.
OR
Just reflash your rom. Wipe dalvik & cache, not data.

Get the full RSD XML from http://sbf.droid-developers.org
Then, open it using something like 7 zip. You should be able to find the boot.img in there.
