*flash a stock rom
*wipe ur ext partition if u have it (using link2sd)
*then flash Hiperion
oh, it's you again u made it.

*flash with stock rom using Odin
*flash with CWM that Hyperion (read the instruction carefully on the Hyperion Thread)
goodluck

Did all of that before you guys said, still gives me a bootloop, do I need to root my phone? But, when I root it I can't mount /system or /data or the other one

STEPS TO FLASH HYPERION (worked for me 100%)
- Flash stock rom via odin
- Reboot and go to CWM
- Clear Data/Reset and Cache
- Mount System/Sdcard/Data/Cache, (Sometimes Data/Cache can't be mounted it is OKAY)
- Flash Hyperion
- DO NOT REBOOT YET
- Go to Advanced
- Boot to Recovery
- Clear Data
- Clear Cache
- Reboot
Try it

[Q] ext 4 problem

Ok to cut a long story short so this is what happened
1. I am using hyperion.. Because of oc feature i wanted to flash merruks kernel
2. Formatted my rom, backed up using cwm, flashed kernel via odin.. Flashed elite modules and ext4 converter and restored system data and cache
3. Rom did not boot.. So i reflashed rom and restored a previos nandroid backup..
4. To show to a friend of mine i intalled cm9 by whitexp.. No boot so restored
5. Got bored of hyperion so reflashed stock this morning via odin.. Successful flashing but before rebooting it said in recovery E: can't mount data.. Phone got bootloops...
6 reflashed hyperion restored backup and phone is working
From all thia i have concluded that my /data is converted to ext4 permanently which is supported neither by stock nor by whitexp's kernel....
So finally here is my question.. HOW CAN I FIX THIS? I want my stock rom back..
I am even comfortable with terminal emulator commands if you just tell it in a normal human understandable language... Lol
but please help me fix this.. Thanks
P.S only post reply if you really have a solution.. No noob or spam answers please

my phone is working but the problem is my /data is converted to ext4 and can not be mounted in stock rom and kernel and whitexp's kernel but is working working with savies kernel... I want to go back to stock but after flashing it reboots to recovery and installs update (apparently stock rom) and before rebooting it gives error E:cant mount data..
And phone gets bootloops.. I need to get it fixed
P.S. I am not a noob.. Dont go to my thanks meter.. Its low because i visit xda more as a visitor than a member.. And i have flashed the stock rom correctly and have done it many times before

I can't see your thanks meter am on a phone...

Install a stock rom using odin preferably a wipe package, and use totoro_0623.pit file and check repartition. It will format everything back to rfs

No - your putting your phone back to the exact state it was in when backup was made - wiping things is not necessary and it auto mounts when restoring

Yess !

I did exactly like these guys told me above :/

Oh dear - you do know to restore a cm7 backup you need to be on an ext4 partition and on percys kernel - if you flashed hyperion you will be savies kernel hence invalid boot image
flash percys kernel
reboot recovery
format system data cache flash (this changes system to ext4 for cm7 use)
advanced restore
restore system & data only

Well you should know - if you correctly flashed cm7 you would know how to flash percys kernel
If you flash roms you know how to format
and advanced recovery is in backup & restore in cwm
if you can't follow those instructions give up now and read the op of cm7 thread properly

Really are you being serious!
Steps already given
To restore cm7 backup
flash percys kernel
reboot recovery
format system data cache
advanced restore
restore system and data only
what links can you possibly need - if you have already flashed cm7 before you know where percy kernel is because you need to be on percys kernel to flash the latest percys cm7 (hint it's on percy's cm7 thread!)
if you hadn't noticed I'm getting fed up of people who want spoon feeding

Hey man. Im telling again i made a backup of my stock Rom using Clockworkmod . then i installed hyperion. now i want to go back to stock Rom using that backup. i followed steps you told earlier. it says Error loading boot image. Plz help now i!

Want to return to STOCK from CM7.2

Hi, am using now CM7.2 ROM
i want to back to my custom stock based rom ( i have nandroid backup of custom stock rom )
how can i get back using CWM???

use odin first before you restore your backup or use ext4converter of rio.. but i recommend odin for you.

No need to use odin
flash hells fusion #50 kernel (it supports ext4)
restart to recovery
restore your nandriod backup
if you get boot error when restore nandriod as you used a different kernel just advanced restore and restore system and data only

If direct restore the backup, then what happen..

Will probably restore but won't boot on percy cm7 kernel
that's why I said flash hells fusion #50 kernel as it supports ext4 system partitions & stock based roms so you can easily switch between hells fusion #50 kernel & stock based roms & percys kernel & cm7 based roms

Need odin download link for ubuntu

Did you try to format system data and cache under mounts and storage before you mounted

To format itself its required to mount.. mount fail..

Not true - when you first flash percy's kernel you get mount errors
you just format system data cache then you can mount them

too bad i dont have source for that.. ask marcus or just follow his instructions maybe you can still revive it try to format if it can fix error

There's only two ways I can think of using odin/flash rom on Ubuntu
1- use virtual box and run Windows inside it
2- use Linux commands in terminal (you will have to Google if it's possible)
there is wine but unless there are drivers for ubuntu your phone won't be detected
try reading this as alternative although no guarantees it will work with galaxy y
