So i have probably flashed my phone around twenty times, and each time something goes wrong or doesnt work, i have to use Odin and flash back to stock, do the JI6 update, install OCLF, root it, flash clockwork recovery, then try and flash another rom.
My concern is that it takes forever to do his process everytime. Is there an easier way to do this? Do you need to have JI6 before flashing a 2. 2 rom? Do you need root to install a custom rom? Or can you just copy over clockworm recovery to sd? Any info will help, thanks.

I've flashed my phone with every rom I could find. I was using ClockworkMod Recovery to do my flashing and never had a problem. but if you flash a 2.2 rom.... you can't go back to 2.1
Unless you open Odin and have your phone set to Download mode.

Then your phone will be rolled back to 2.1 update1 STOCK.
I had to use this 4 times. It works.

Who's the stupid person who told you to flash JI6 first to go to 2.2?

yeah ...
I have no clue how you could be having this much trouble... are you following the guides?
First off you don't need to wait for the ji6 / flash the ji6 update to get to froyo. 2nd, why are you bothering with the lag fix before getting on the rom you want to run daily? Try to keep your flashes clean. By this I mean once you're odin'd back to stock, just flash 2.2, so there's no weird mods messing things up for you. If you're finding things wrong every time you have to eliminate as many variables as you can that could potentially cause something to go wrong. If you flash straight from stock, you're only variables will be within the 2.2 ROM you're flashing. Hope this helps. It's definitely worth it to get on one of the froyo roms in these forums, I recommend Axura, no problems at all and there's an even newer release than I'm running so it might be even better.
I did a backup with 2.1 update1 stock. Then flashed to 2.2 Obsidian V4.
That's my first flash and I only got the phone for two weeks. So apparently
I was still in learning mode. I did not backup my contacts as I thought
I could easily go back to 2.1 just as if having a dual bootable linux box.
However, after restoring to 2.1, the phone did not boot. It appears that I
have to use ODIN to bring it back. But my concern is I will lose my contacts
once 2.1 is back. So my questions are:
1. if I use odin, will I lose my contacts?
2. is there any other way to let the phone boot?
3. Not sure if my case falls into the category that flash to 2.2 then cannot
go back to 2.1 unless odin is used.
Sorry for asking so many questions.
Many thanks in advance.

Ok i'm confused on how you will lose contacts.
When you add contacts to your phone are you choosing "google" as the place to add it? If you choose "phone" then you will lose contacts as data is wiped.
But always choose "google", then all of your contacts will be synced and stored to googles servers. Then once you add your google account after you flash your rom all of your contacts will be synced right back to your phone..... this is what I do and I always have my contacts no matter what
install check list
OCLF (Root only)
Rom Manager (clockwork recovery + Rom Installer)
thats all you need really for quick installs.
I did my first rom install about a week ago, since then i've flashed 4 different ones, havent had any issues. i tend to stick to installs that can be installed via clock work, Used odin 1 time that was because OTA JI6 broke me.
Obsidian V4 is unstable and was pulled from the public download page for revisions try V3 or Onyx R3.1
as for contacts, you don't have them synced Via gmail or atleast backed up on your sim?
Just so everyone knows there is a stock 2.2 for use with ODIN. No need to go back to stock 2.1 then up to 2.2 again. The 2.2 for ODIN is pre-rooted. I have done this twice now with no problems. Haven't needed One Click Root/Unroot since we got 2.2
It might be a little late to know this. But to be honest, I do not really buy into
the concept of putting everything in google's hand. That's why I chose to
save in the phone other than google.
I thought that by backing up the current ROM (2.1 update1 in my case),
I should be able to restore back to it whenever I want to.
Am I doomed? Really hate to shoot everybody an email asking for their
numbers. And worse, some of them don't have email since they are old

so far obsidian v4 has not given me any trouble, but I will give V3 a try later
to make sure I have at least one stable version.
As for contacts, I did not take it too seriously when I flashed to 2.2.
But now I realize it's a lot hassle to get all numbers back if I can remember
who are on my list.
Is there any hope to save my a**?

Thanks for all the replies but to be clear all my custom flashed roms flash successfully. Nothing wrong with flashing, just doing advanced stuff like testing eugenes kernels with other roms. If something goes wrong then i have to start over. I was just wondering if we can go from stock to 2. 2 which i know now we can. Do you need root to do this or can you just copy the update. Zip of the clockwork recovery to sd and get into it from stock recovery to flash the new rom

Ive been using gmail as my contacts backup since 06 when it was beta invite only. Synced via active sync on my windows mobile 5,6 and 6.5 phones with ease its just always made more sense then outlook or sim cards since i could access it anywhere i had internet.
Give it a shot doesnt hurt to always have atleast 1 backup

Hi everyone, this is my first post. I am one of those who waited patiently for 2.2 that I decided to finally root today. I followed all the instructions to root from the sticky here. The process went without a hitch and I flashed the jk6 stock from Team Whiskey from the development section.
I really enjoyed the 2.2 experience while it lasted until I flashed the JL5+voodoo kernel from supercurio's thread. I was under the impression that you could flash different kernels over the old ones. It went through the process of partitioning to ext4. Once it was done, I went to settings and about phone to see if there was JL5 anywhere and it wasn't. It still showed JK6. So I panicked. I disabled voodoo through clockwork recovery and went to the process of reverting back to rfs which I believed. I used odin to flash back to jfd. I know, I didn't restore the backup from clockwork because I wanted to start over( I still have those backups on my external sd card). To my knowledge, the flashing to jfd would completely wipe the data, replace the baseband, kernel, recovery and os.
I then used samsung kies mini to update to JI6. Everything went ok so I decided to root again. Instead of loading the update.zip to internal sdcard. I decided to use tga_gunnman once click root. That process went great until went it rebooted, the clockwork recovery screen popped up to my amazement. It seemed that there were still original files since the first time I rooted. I checked my files on my vibrant to find that I still had original files such as the clockwork back up, titamium back up, and even voodoo. I thought the flashing would completely remove all the data and files. So I panicked again. At this point, I don't know what I did that now I can't get to my log in screen and the screen I get is a picture of a phone, an exclamation, and a computer on my phone. I tried using odin again through download mode to go back to stock but under the message box on odin, it stops at cache.rfs. It has been stuck there for a long time and nothing is happening. I can't even get into recovery mode either.
Now I am not even sure if I properly disabled voodoo or deleted it which I thought the flashing back to jfd would do. I don't know if my partition is still rfs or ext4. I can't use my phone at all. Did I completely brick my phone? How do I fix the mess I got myself into? I really do appreciate anyone's help. I apologize for the length of this post. I wanted to be detailed as possible. Thank you.
EDIT: Spoke too soon. I used a different version of odin and now im back to stock jfd, but the original files are still there including the voodoo folder. I thought it wipes all the data. Also how do I know that the data partition is originally rfs and not ext4? I want to make sure before I root again. Thanks.
Can you get to recovery and restore your backup you created? I just read where you said you can not get in to recovery. What method are you using to try to access recovery?
well if you are back to stock, but just the folder is lingering around, cant you just reformat your sd card?
settings>sd card phone storage>format.
I did a back up using clockwork. I originally was trying to do to the recovery mode by pressing the vol keys and power and that didn't work. I actually got it back to stock jfd by using a different version of odin. My problem now is that I still have some original files on my phone including the voodoo folder. My understanding of flashing was that it wipes everything from your phone. I am not sure if i still have root access even after flashing back to stock jfd. Also if my partition is back to rfs or still stuck at ext4. I am a little confused here. I am afraid if i root again that the original files and folders from my first root will interfere with the new root method.
so If I format the internal sd card, will it completely erase all traces from my first root?

When you flash a new rom, or back to stock, it does not (usually) wipe the contents of your sd cards (internal or external). And if you are successfully running stock 2.1, you can rest assured you're back to rfs - so if that voodoo folder is making you nervous you can just delete it (it's only relevant if you have voodoo enabled). You're fine to re-root with whatever method you prefer.
Sounds like the soft-brick you experienced was purely from odin hanging on you, and that icon you saw has become a frequent visitor on my phone since I routinely have odin hanging issues (hence my avatar). I've found that v1.3 treats me the best, but sounds like whatever version you updated to worked, so there's no reason to deviate.
Download OCLF from the market and you will find out if you are currently rooted still.
There are a few misconceptions on what the wipe is.
/sdcard and external SD card are user accessible areas of the phone, and when it states that the ROM wipes your phone it does not touch these (there was only one incarnation of TW ROM's that inadvertently formated the entire filesystem for some users).
If you must format the phone to its complete stock form in ODIN you can use re-partition check box - the results are still mixed if it formats the entire FS or not, but most probably it will for you. So all your pictures, etc. should be backed up no matter what.
I appreciate the help guys. Thanks very much. The version of odin I used originally was v1.00 and the one I used to fix the problem was v1.70. My question now is did I properly flash the JL5 kernel over the JK6 even though when I checked the information on my phone it still stated as JK6? Also how do you properly reflash to a different kernel as well as modems? Do you overwrite the kernel or do you have to go back to stock before trying a new one? Thanks.

I'm not sure why you would flash the JL5 kernel. Does it have any added benefit over the JK6? If you want, you can flash the JL5 MODEM through clockwork using the JL5_modem.zip file posted in many threads.
You should not have to go back to a stock kernel before trying a new one, but if you flash a Voodoo kernel that converts your system to ext4, then you must convert it back to RFS before flashing another kernel. An easy way to be postively sure that you are in RFS is by getting "Terminal Emulator" from market, and type "su" press enter, and then "mount" and press enter. If you see rfs next to data, dbdata, datadata, and system, then you know your system is converted back to RFS. Otherwise, in Voodoo mode it will read ext4 next to those.
Also, if you are really paranoid about getting a fresh start, you can mount your internal SD on your computer and just delete everything on there. Don't worry, all the important Android system files will be restored upon each reboot. All the other crap on there will be erased.
I'm trying to root my Telus fascinate (SGH t959D) not to sure if i should be posting this here or in the vibrant section...
anyways I've tried numerous rooting methods and none have worked, I'll list what I've tried. I've also made sure I have the 64bit drivers for windows 7 installed.
super one click root - goes through the process, appears to be working, says ROOTED, but does not provide root access, it also disables haptic feedback on my 4buttons until a restart
galaxy s one click root - restarts into recovery mode (3e), although no "reinstall packages" option is available. The option i do have is apply sdcard:update.zip which fails do to a signature error.
various other 2.2 root files - same error as in the one click root, except i manually boot into recovery mode via the volume buttons.
various market one click root tools - none work, I got really desperate.
also, im looking for a download link to nero v5, the team whiskey website doesnt have one that i can find...
I haven't tried flashing a new rom with odin yet as some guides say to do... I want to backup files on my phone with titanium backup first, but that needs root.
can anyone recommend any other backup app that doesnt require root?
z4root is flaky and buggy but sometimes it gets the job done.
Replacing just a system partition will not destroy your apps, though it would of course be a good idea to make sure you are flashing a rom based on the stock for your phone to have the lowest chance of FCs on startup. Most roms out there are intended to be flashed in CWM. CWM is actually a kernel flashed to the recovery partition with Odin, but it also lets you make a nandroid backup which will backup almost everything on your phone except the kernel; subsequent restores will make it so you reboot into your phone exactly as it was at the time you did the nandroid. Might want to consider that, as if all goes well you can just flash the rom you want, keep your apps, and be done with it. If not, well, you did make a nandroid after flashing CWM but before flashing your rom, didn't you?

I'm quite familiar with nandroid backups, I'm coming from an HTC hero running modaco's custom rom with some different custom recovery image.
I've tried using z4root before but I'll give it another try. right now I'm looking at an alternate method which i found here using linux. going to give that a try tomorrow.
As for the custom kernels and roms, im still on stock and haven't flashed anything yet with odin. would it be possible to flash clockwork with odin before i get root? will that mess anything up?
So I was at my girlfriends today and decided to give the super one click root another try... it worked.
I've had problems with the usb ports before but I forgot to consider it as an option

So I was trying to go from comrom to OMFGB nightlies, and didn't know you have to go to OMBG first. When I tried to do that. I odined the ED05 modem, then flashed OMFGB, then the GAPPS. It wouldn't work, and then I read I had to flash a new kernel, so I flashed the Glitch high leakage. Then it started to work, but after it went to the boot screen, it went to a new CMW, blue, and tried to install GAPPS? I think that's what it was doing, but it went really quickly, and said something like it couldn't mount the sd card, which is weird. So I took out the sd card, and it said waiting for mount, or something similar. I put it back in, but it wouldn't work. So then, I flashed back to UKB with the pb&j kernel, to see if I could get things going from there. It booted fine, but when I tried to just flash OMFGB, it would go to the boot screen, and then go back to CWM. So I tried to go back to UKB, and then it did the same thing, didn't change the boot screen at all (so now it's stuck with Galaxy S Cyanogen mod boot screen). I tried to flash OMBG then, but it was still going back to CWM. I'm thinking about odining the eclair package, and then trying from there. What do you think. Oh and usually I go to android central, but they don't have OMFGB nightlies there, so here I am.
TL;DR: I flashed a bunch of GB stuff in what I assume to be in the wrong order, now I'm stuff. Help me?
EDIT:After flashing a bunch of stuff, I don't remeber what or what order, just that the Glitch was last, I managed to get it to boot, first with a glitch boot screen, then the android boot screen. I'm not sure what I'm on, I think it is OMGB, at least that is what the widget says when I booted it up. I'm really confused. Anyways, I think I got it.
EDIT2:Nope, stuck at the boot to CWM loop. I'm going to try to go back to UKB (froyo) through that sticky in dev
EDIT3:Well I'm waiting for it to download, so what I did that worked was flash OFGB in red CWM, weird, but it worked. I'm leaving it at that for now, cause nobody is replying.
While I'm glad you got things to work, you should probably start from scratch if things start to get weird again. I highly recommend this thread as the proper way to go from CM7/MIUI/OMFGB back to stock, and from there back to whatever you want: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1124391
Remember that when you flash stock DL09 or EB01 or ED05, you also have to have the atlas 2.2 pit file and "repartition" checked in ODIN.
Finally, while you still have things working, I recommend you do a nandroid backup. If you need to go all the way back to stock before coming back to gingerbread, you can do an Advanced Restore > Data Restore in order to get your apps and such back pretty painlessly.
Yeah thanks, that's the sticky I was talking about. I didn't know about the re-partition button having to be checked, thanks for that And the Data restore is through CWM? I assume so. And for that, I just need a regular nandroid backup?
Yes, in CWM you can choose backup and restore, and then do a system backup.
When you want to go back to a given setup (i.e. your apps, widgets, etc.) you can do an advanced restore where you choose to restore just data, and not the whole nandroid system backup.
That's pretty cool, I never new about that. So I tried the *228 1 and 2 thing, cause I couldn't download the beta swype, and I thought it I needed too, but it said my phone couldn't be activated, and to try again, then the I lost all signal. I rebooted, and it came back, but I couldn't activate it again. It's being weird still, and in the morning, I'm starting over like you suggested. I'm still receiving calls though, and I get good connection. For the morning, I was wondering if I could just check to see if I have everything I need. I have:
CI500_VZW_ED05_FROYO_REL.tar.md5 from the thread you posted for odin
OMGB 1.2.0
OMFGB nightly build 7/21
Glitch High leakage v11.1
The CWM for all roms (red)
lithid gapps (unless you think the other gapps is good)
and I think that is it. I don't have the atlas 2.2 pit file, can I just search here for that? Thanks for all the help
EDIT:Found the atlas 2.2, and I use that at the same time as the md5 file, right?
EDIT2:Okay, I tried to do a nandroid backup, but with the CWM recovery 4.0.1.0 (I think that's what it is), it didn't show anything, like it said backing up system, then it didn't show what part it was backing up, and the status bar stayed blank, then it moved on to data after a while, and that. It said it failed to back up sd-ext, which I'm guessing is why it wasn't working properly. I'm doing the odin restore to froyo, and if someone could tell me the correct order to install/flash/odin stuff to get to the OMFGB nightlies, that would be amazing!
EDIT3:I think I did it right. Odined to froyo, Odined the ED05 modem, Odined the CWM for CM7, flashed CM7, Rebooted, Flashed Glitch Kernel, then Flashed OMFGB nightly build 7/23. I still need to do gapps though.
EDIT4:I did gapps, and almost everything looks good. I can't activate my phone through *228 1, and when I try to set up my google account, it says it couldn't establish a reliable connection to the servers. And After I call to activate my phone, my service goes dead. I can still text and receive calls though
EDIT5:man, a lot of editing. I flashed OMGB 1.2.0 on top, and now I can set up my google account. Still not activating though :/
Unrelated question, how come sometimes my wifi and signal bars are grey, sometimes blue (I'm using cyanbread)? I think when they are grey, I'm not using signal? How do I make them blue?
Hi everyone. I had a few questions about flashing new roms on my kindle and was hoping to get some help
1. If I flash a new rom, like cm7, will i need to use titanium back up to save my apps and data. I remember doing this when i flashed a rom for my phone.
2. will flashing to cm7 prevent me from receiving OTA updates that amazon sends out. They just recently sent one a few days ago and the update unrooted the kindle. I wanted to see if I this is something I would have to worry about if i flash to cm7
3. once i do flash to cm7 and say another rom comes out, can i flash straight to the new rom or do i need to flash back to stock then perform the flash for the new rom.. again i remember having to do this when i was changing roms with my phone.
4. does the battery need to be fully charged before flashing
5. If i flash to cm7 then want to go back to back up (amazon stock software with root and gapps) will this make me loose my root access and twrp 2.0
Thanks

1. If you are coming from another rom, then yes. But if you are updating your CM7, then you should probably backup your apps
2. I have had CM7 on my Kindle for like 2 weeks, and have not received an update. So I don't think so.
3. Like I said above in number 1. For example: If you are coming from Cm7 and want to try to flash ICS, then you would first backup your system, then wipe system, data, cache and Dalvik-cache, just to make sure. But if whistlestop releases a new version of Cm7 that fixes the MAC adress, then you would boot into recovery, A backup is optional but is recommended., then wipe cache and Dalvik-cache only, then flash the updated rom on top of it.
4. It says that it is recommended to have a full battery, but I have not yet flashed a rom with a full battery, and I have not occured problems.
5. I think if you get an OTA update after flashing back to stock, then you will probably loose root access again and TWRP. But don't worry, after you get TWRP back, you will still have all your backups.
AWESOME! Thanks for all your help.
one more for you. so i just rooted and installed twrp and did a system back up. then i want to flash cm7. now i am running cm7 and decide to try ics so i do another back up before i flash to ics, will the cm7 override the original back up that i did before flashing cm7 or will i now have 2 different back ups i can restore if i wanted too.

There will be 2 different choices when you go to restore. But the problem is that when you make 2 backups the same day, its hard to tell which is which. So when I make a backup I mount USB with the option and rename the 12-27-11... file to something like CM7-12-27 or something of the sort.
