Can someone please confirm if re-partitioning with Meteos app works on stock ROM? I don't want to use custom ROM but want to increase my internal memory by using meteos.
You can use it.. after that flash cwm flashable stock rom, if you don't want custom roms..
Note: your old backup will become useless after partitioning

Hy guys, I need a little help, I instal NTD MIUI Rom and used for a month, but I desided to come back to Sense Roms,But unfortunaly I cant instal any sense rom.If someone had this plroblem and know how to fix it please help me.... Thanks in advance
You need to flash a bigger CWM partition. You may have flashed a 150mb one to use MIUI, but if you're flashing via CWM try a 350mb partition first, then try to flash you Sense ROM.

Going to try Thanks
You obviously haven't read the instructions properly.
Every rom explains what partition to use or supplies a file to do it for you.
After flashing custom rom,can I restore stock rom. I mean I flash the custom rom,then I do not like this rom and I want to restore the stock rom using cmw. But there the thread will be from same model of other's back up. Please tell me is it possible or not? If so on please tell me the guide or detail.Thank you in advance.

Flashing stock rom.
Bro, are you trying to flash back to stock Samsung ROM? if so just google the Model number of your phone followed by stock rom
EG: GT-i9500 Stock ROM.
Okay then Put it onto your SD Card (extSD or intSD) and flash the rom the way you normally would
But next time Do this then you can revert instantly:
1.)Download a APPLICATION BACKUP APPLICATION ie:Titanium Backup
NB: DO THIS WHILST ON STOCK ROM!
Enter recovery Mode (im using CWM in this instance)
2.)Scroll down to "backup and restore"
3.)Enter and select "backup"
NOW YOUR ROM IS BACKED UP (WITHOUT APPS (HENCE WHY WE DOWNLOADED A BACKUP UTILITY))
4.)Next time just backup and restore from that backup you made and install the apps you had using your backup utility
Enjoy your day, Hope this helped!

Hi,
So, i thought of trying different ROMS,earlier i was using stock rom. Now, i download many new roms like cyanogen 11, creed v4, chobits...., etc.
But Cyanogen OS 11 was the only ROM which i could get to work, rest of them just installed and when i rebooted my device through CWM. Nothing happened and cwm just opened again instead of the actual thing. Like i said Cyanogen was the only exception in which when i rebooted my device it actually started
Please help me(what am i doing wrong)
Also what's up with Link2SD and cyanogen

CM11 uses cwm6 and requires your system to be in ext format
Stock Roms use cwm5 and requires your phone system to be in rfs format
To clarify
If flashing cm11 use cwm6
If flashing stock roms use cwm5
In both cases make sure you format system data cache then mount system data cache before flashing the rom zip
You will need to use the cm11 kernel with cm11 (in rom zip)
You will need to use a stock kernel for stock roms
You will need to reformat your system back to rfs for stock based roms unless the kernel supports ext - you do this by flashing stock rom via odin (link at top of dev thread or in my signature)

Thanks for the information but i don't think you got my question...
I can only install cyanogenmod 11 no other rom(i haven't tried any stock one)
Is this the problem, if you want to install a new custom rom, first you have to again install a stock rom...?
Also can you suggest a gapp package as i cannot install both nano and pico ones(they're too large for my s5360) and i did find a mini package but in that i cannot connect to my google account
Thanks

Read my post again
The reason why you can't install another rom if you have flashed cm11 is because only cm11 uses cwm6 & stock based roms use cwm5 - also the file systems between cm11 and stock based are different
For stock based roms
Flash stock rom via odin If not already on stock
Flash a temp cwm5 zip in stock recovery
Format system data cache
Mount system data cache
Flash rom zip
Restart
The gapps for cm11 is clearly available on the first post of the rom thread
Gapps for Gingerbread is easily available via Google if you search gapps

Thank you for replying again
You see, i am not trying to install stock rom..
I tried installing chobitsdigitalis, even other custom roms but even after successful flashing they never booted.
And yes gapps are available but i cannot install any of them due to the storage problem

When I say stock rom this also includes any custom roms based on stock rom - such as the ones you mentioned
You are obviously on the wrong file system & not using a stock based kernel
Flash stock rom via odin first to convert back to rfs & stock kernel & use cwm5 to flash stock based custom roms
Gapps for Gingerbread (for use on stock based custom roms only & cm7) https://goo.im/gapps/gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip
Gapps for cm11 only on rom thread
Thanks a lot !!
I'll try that and let you know
Thanks again for all your help .....
CyanogenMod 11 uses the open-source MTD driver for the internal flash chip, as opposed to all other ROMs which use Samsung's BML driver. No other custom ROM uses the MTD driver (apart from the custom kernels that people are releasing for CM11, which are all based on my kernel source that use the MTD driver).
In order to go back to any ROM that uses the BML driver (which includes ROMs such as CyanogenMod 9), the partitions first need to be converted back to the old BML format. You need to flash all components of a full stock ROM at the same time - the PDA, CSC and MODEM - via Odin. There's no other way to go back.

Download a stock ROM from sammobile and flash it using Odin. Odin doesn't wipe anything so your data will remain intact.

is there any way to take out the system ui from stock rom and make a flashable zip?
actualy I made a flashable zip of my rom with cwm, might it work If I flash this zip of stock rom ?

Sure, but you would have to get the right SystemUI file, make sure the commands are correct, and then hope that it works. Downloading the stock ROM from sammobile is easier since you simply install it using Odin, and you're done. Besides, you should ALWAYS have a copy of your stock ROM on your hard drive, just for these types of problems.

Well first of all, you should be using TWRP as Clockworkmod is no longer maintained and cannot handle some ROMs. Secondly, TWRP allows you to make the backups on the MicroSD card, unlike Clockworkmod. That said, how did you make a flashable zip of your ROM using Clockworkmod? That's not a feature of any recovery I know of. Making a nandroid backup, on the other hand, IS a feature of custom recoveries, and if you did make a nandroid backup, you simply restore that and you're good to go.
thanks bro
