Flashed the dead horse kernel then BAM

I flashed the test 23 zip from eugine. After that every.thing was wiped from sd. Then I can't instal any apps because the tom memory shows o.ombs. Then I tried flashing a stock kernel and guess what? Still nothing is recognized and now I cant data reset my phone becajse all the wipes fail and cant aaccesse cwm anymore, I get an error with orange writing? Anyone know what the problem is? I have.bionix v installed.

ya...
eguene's test kernels ruined my phone as well. odin back to stock, start backing up your data(like i'm just starting to do ) and don't use his kernels anymore lol

My application storage also turned to 0 but after i odin to stock it works now. Did you load the .pit file?

They are all there in supercurio's thread. Take three seconds to find it instead of asking to be spoon fed. Additionally, the kernel is for TESTING purposes. If you don't even know how to Odin a kernel or find a tar format kernel then you shouldn't be flashing test kernels. Learn how to take care of yourself or don't flash test kernels.

[REQ] Flashable .zip re-partitioner

Hello..I would like to ask if anyone here could make a flashable .zip ile that would revert partitions to the samsung stock type, as if done via odin..I wanted to try cm7, but at times i go for weeks away from home and do not have my pc/laptop for alot of that time to use odin..So if there was a such .zip i could just flash that, and then any samsung based custom rom (that is because cm7 changes partitions).Thank you.

U don't need anything? Just flash a stock rom and u'r cool?

If you are on CM7 or MIUI, you must flash a stock rom with Odin + pit/repartition in order to restore the partitions to Samsung's BML instead of the MTD layout used in CM7.
I think this request is a great idea although I'm not sure it it's possible.

If Fascinate owners use the same pit files (512, 513 or 803) when flashing their ROMs with Odin, you should be safe.

MAKE SURE YOU BACKUP ANY USEFUL INFORMATION OR APPS FROM YOUR PHONE, BECAUSE YOUR ROM IS GOING TO BE WIPED.
First download the attachment. Remove the numbers from the name of the file so that it is renamed PC36IMG and place this on the root of your SD card. Power off the phone, then boot into your bootloader by holding the volume down and power buttons at the same time. Accept the update. If everything went OK, that should get rid of that Revolutionary at the top of your bootloader and flash the phone back to S-ON.
Next remove the file from your SD card by either rebooting your phone or going into your RECOVERY. I'm not going to give all the details for this.
Next, download this file.
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=VSFLE9CD
Rename it PC36IMG, place it on your SD card and follow the same steps as you did with the first PC36IMG file.
Let me know if that worked, because how to unroot the phone has seemed to be forgotten around here. Everyone is just happy to root.

That doesn't work completely for Gingerbread.
You can downgrade the ROM back to Froyo, but the S-ON tool will not work with the new bootloader, and the bootloader will not downgrade by running any of the PC36IMG Froyo files or RUUs if Revolutionary was used to turn S-OFF.

Assuming that you mean to unroot and regain S-OFF on an Evo 4G that was rooted using Revolutionary...
It seems that this has been worked out.

Oh by the way, thanks for the S-ON solution Captain. I thought of your idea about a week ago with the bootloader, and have a hex editor, but did not think it all the way through at the time.

this worked great but one prob. now when i try to re root with revolutionary it says im already s off but on bootloader im not. wassup with that?

You need to flash an unrooted stock ROM to roll back your HBOOT to an upgradable version. I assume you used the modded 6.17 HBOOT to S-ON, but didn't flash a stock ROM to restore your HBOOT to stock?
Because the modded HBOOT is a higher version number than Revolutionary, most likely it believes you're already rooted.

I used RUU to update my phone to latest stock Rom and flashed the attachment on this thread

You essentially have two options:
- Run the RUU (ROM Update Utility) for the latest stock ROM on your PC
- Flash the latest stock ROM, in PC36IMG.zip format through FastBoot

Should be the new Market

It hits a lot of system apps and framework. If you wanna inspect it, check for updates and, when it arfives, look for the zip in /cache. I copied it over to internal sdcard and installed it manually through recovery. Oh, btw, it looks like it updates recovery so if you apply it you may have to reinstall your recovery of choice.
Update: didn't see an update to Market but I saw updates to Maps, Gmail, Launcher, Settings and YouTube among lots of others. Dunno what the changes are, could be driven by the updates go frameworknl or they could be just bug fixes.

Its specifically for HLK75C - besides file replacements, there are patches. Even if you patched around the checks for build.prop, at least some of the patches wouldn't apply.

[how-to] flash ics easily

i dono why. i don understand at all. why do we need to flash this, reboot, flash this and that, and then flast this......
come on! i am now in LP5 by just flashing the factoryfs and zImage, followed by a wipe and that's all!! why do we need to care about the boot loader? and why to concern about to repartition it or not? pls, do it your way. flashing a rom is only a file copy process!!
i respect all ppls' work. but for me, i prefer to let the user happy by flashing a rom or finishing a task in one single step.

New installation steps for ICS Stunner @ Stunner Topic. Much Simple.
These steps didn't work for LP1 based ROM and it broke root previously.

My understanding is that If you flash the bootloader you will risk bricking your phone also no way to revert back to GB.

Does your simple way preserve root and allow for an easy way back to GB? If it does could you provide some simple, fool-proof instructions? Thanks.

We're finally seeing developers include kernel and modem files in their ROMS, so it's getting easier...before it was, "flash this base, reboot, wipe, flash this base, reboot, flash this base, flash it again and reboot, flash my ROM 2x, reboot 2x, enjoy. Repeat from beginning if you messed up." Okay, so a little over the top, but that's what it felt like to me. I'm definitely happy with the progress being made!

actually all i wanted is to push the rom makers to go a step further, by telling them that even by just flashing the zimage and system will do so they should provide proper script to run the installation automatically. i am glad to see the procedures become simplier. but on the other hand i hope ppl will pay more time to prepare the installation steps and be user friendly

root permissions can be retained or restored. back to gb is totally possible. it all depends on the rom makers to make it or not
