Hi,
I'm noob that got Vibrant phone (from EBAY) that already ROOTED & ClockWorldMod Recovery V2.5.1.3 - Voodoo Lagfix (I don't how...)
With :
KERNEL : 2.6.32.9
BASEBAND : T959UVKB1
BUILD : BIONIX-V 1.3.1
SUPERUSER V2.3.6
SU BINARY V2.3.1-EF
VOODOO LAGFIX
In recovery I see :
ClockWorldMod Recovery V2.5.1.3 - Voodoo Lagfix (ALL IN RED)
apply sdcard update.zip
wipe data \ factory reset
wipe cache partition
install zip from sdcard
backup and restore
mounts and storage
advanced
voodoo
+++++Go Back+++++
I don't have any backups so I want to install ROM MANAGER from market, I read HERE that if i want to upgrade I need to go go back to stock (I'm really don't know how this version get to the phone and somehow the ROM MANAGER not there...)
Do I must go back to stock or I can download ROM MANAGER, Install it and make something like "Upgrade" - I don't know what is the voodoo lagfix and do I need to uninstall it if I want to:
1. install ROM MANAGER and preform Backup & Restore (most important how to verify my backup OK )
2. Move to Trigger 3.2
Can some guide me with simple steps about how to start (I know that I'm not starting for 0 ether in the phone and ether in my knowledge)
Thanks.
Download Trigger
Install titanium backup, backup all of your apps
Move to internal, /sdcard
Reboot to red recovery
Make a backup
Wipe
Flash, instal from sd
Reboot
Wait
Reboot
Restore
Reboot
this says it all

This says it all, but since you are a noob
by wipe, he means to wipe everything (data(factory reset), cache, delvik cache(thats on the advanced options)
As for the titanium backup if you dont know how to use it, just youtube it or go over the threads here
Finally when doing the flash, make sure the trigger 3.2 file is on the sd card
And NO you dont have to go back to stock
1. Do all this without using the Rom Manager?!?!?!? - If I want to install it just download & Install, no any pre-requisit ?
2. when you say Wipe - you mean to "wipe data \ factory reset" or "wipe cache partition" ?
3. Flash, instal from sd = "install zip from sdcard" ?
4. Wait = how much time
5. Restore = Restore what?
Can you direct me to step by step guide for this or input some details?
Thanks alot

Hi,
I checked your guide and even see the video and I have Q, about the "Rom Manager", I saw In your video that you Use it...
Someone told me that my current ClockWorldMod Recovery is old and I should upgrade it... (I couldn't find in the net \ this forum how to upgrade my current version...).
Someone told me:
1. download from market
2. install it with ROOT
3. click "Flash Clockwork Recovery" and boot to recovery
4. Re-install Packages - I DON'T HAVE THIS OPTION NOW
and from there like in your guide: backup,make all the Wipe, place rom on sd and choose "install zip from sd card"
1. Is it true and should work?
2. should I follow those steps (in this order)
3. should I make a backup before and after I download and "Flash Clockwork Recovery"
4. If I follow this orders should I see the "Re-install Packages" that I don't see now and should I need to use it ?
Sorry for all the questions but I want to "understand" (as much as can) what I'm doing.
Thanks Again
Earlier I was sending you messages from my phone while waiting for an appointment... let me try again...
You have the red voodoo recovery. You do not need anything else. Ignore Rom Manager and all that, you really do not need it, because your ROM replaced this recovery with the stock one. You are good.
Just download the rom
make backups
go flash the rom
enjoy
If you have a specific question or want a better explanation, just let me know.
responses in red.

1. Do all this without using the Rom Manager?!?!?!? - If I want to install it just download & Install, no any pre-requisit ? No, you have a recovery that allows you to make backups and flash roms already. Because of this, you can use the step by step guide I gave in post 2 and just be merry.
2. when you say Wipe - you mean to "wipe data \ factory reset" or "wipe cache partition" ?
Yes, and dalvik in advanced like another pointed out.
3. Flash, instal from sd = "install zip from sdcard" ?
Yes
4. Wait = how much time
After you flash the rom, let it just sit for about 10 minutes, then reboot, don't mess with the phone.
5. Restore = Restore what?Your apps if you backed them up... restore your launcher, contacts if you dont use google.. whatever you want to restore, just not system apps (green system apps like wifi and bookmarks should be okay though, exception to the rule for 2.2 > 2.2)
Can you direct me to step by step guide for this or input some details?

when you say: "your ROM replaced this recovery with the stock one." do you mean that after install the new rom I need to make ROOT again? (sorry for my noob)
I make all install (without SIM on the phone).
after the reboot I saw the Android and after few scondes he say to inset sim....
Do I was have to install the new rom with the SIM in it?
PLEASE HELP? (for now I don't know what to do so I'll wait the 15 min)...
ANY SUPPORT? - is it OK?
thanks.
1. Install the ROM with a SIM card in...or if you didn't, insert it like it asks you to.
2. ROM Manager IS clockwork recovery. It is that menu you went into to flash the rom (can be green or red depending on your kernel installed). You don't need ROM Manager because whoever had the phone before you already installed ROM Manager at some point and hence, you have the Clockwork Recovery now as you saw.
3. After you install the new ROM, the boot up will take a long time. It is setting up all the system and configuring the operating system. After it finally boots, leave your phone for 10 minutes and just don't touch it. This gives it time to do a lot of configuration stuff it needs to do when it first starts up. After the 10 minutes are up, restart it. It will now start a lot quicker (like normal) and when its up, you can use it anyway you want. Hence, some first things to do would be to restore your contacts, programs (if you backed them up, settings, etc)
3. I really recommend you read a little bit more before you do flashing like this next time because if people here are not nice and don't lead you by the nose (or if you follow a step wrong), you can **** your phone. The procedure is easy. It is fairly foolproof but it is still advised that you have basic knowledge of what you are doing.
There are a lot of sticky threads on the forums that explain what things are. I recommend you have a look.
Thanks It look like everything is OK now (I read about 15 post before done this...)
Now my Phone Setting look like this:
FW : 2.2
Build : FROYO.UVKB5
KERNEL : 2.6.32.9
TRIGGER VERSION : 3.2- FINAL
BTW:
I'm still see "ClockWorldMod Recovery V2.5.1.3 - Voodoo Lagfix (ALL IN RED)"
1. Does my CWR was needed to be updated too - because its not ?
2. Should I update my kernel too ? - Is there any guide fort this?
Thanks.
SomeOne
I just want to be sure that everything is OK, and find out why my CWR didn't upgrade as well...
Thanks.
OMG!!!!!! Just follow the instructions! It's not rocket science; geez. I know of most noobs who wouldn't even ask this many questions even AFTER the guide/tutorial/step-by-step instructions are in front of them. I give you my word that you WILL NOT brick your Vibrant just by trial and error.

I don't understand why you are so set on the CWR upgrading.... and just an FYI, the red recovery (.3) is a higher version than via Rom Manager (.2).
Be happy. Move on to something else now that YOUR PHONE IS FINE
(meant in the nicest way possible, hard to understand text via Internet).
Some days ago, i want to move app folder in phone memory/data/ to my sdcard, i think that folder is not use so i move with root explorer, mount r/w to my sdcard, suddenly all my application was gone , android market and application installer were gone to
then I use android commander from my pc to install again the root explorer then move back the app folder then restart my phone after i restart my phone, my application not comeback except android market and application installer
My phone is xperia x10 mini pro, can you help me please, any help would be appriciate, sorry for my bad english
GOD BLESS US
when you move them back you need to set permissions.
the easy way is to go in xrec or CWM rec and select fix permissions i think is in advanced.
if this didnt work just install your rom again no need to factory reset just wipe dalvik and partition cache
@Eyama
Thank you, can you explain more detail, because i'm new in android, the application that missing also missing in phone menu, can xrec fix this ?
Thank you
GOD BLESS US
I see that you use Xrecovery.
so go in Xrecovery then go to advanced an select fix permissions (this wil give the right permissions to apps).reboot phone and see if you have al app back (you need them in system/app)
If this still didn't work
Go to Xrecovery and install custom rom again (that one you allready have and wipe dalvik cache and partition cache you have those options in Xrecovery) with selecting install custom zip (have that rom on your SD card) and you will get all apps back and working.
@Eyema
what you mean "(you need them in system/app)" ?
Thank You
GOD BLESS US
Oouuu sory i miss that you lost apps that were downloaded from market and hey are stored in data/app. am i correct?
so you have them back in there
then with root explorer go to that place data/app and press mount r/w
then press and hold on app and then select permissions.
change permissions to
x..x
x
x
do this to all app and then reboot
@Eyema
Yup, youre correct, application from market
Oh dear thank you....^_^
I fix permission with xrecovery and it worked for me....^_^
Thank you
Anyway, i use android commander and droid explorer to explore my phone from pc, but why the root access off ? can you help it ? when i googling that because the adb, i'm very confused with the adb, no adb guide can guide me....TT_TT
One more again thank you, thank you....^_^
Thank's GOD
GOD BLESS US
Well im glad that helped
well im not using anny of this so i can't tell you. and i dont't like adb
so the better way is to get right permissions with root explorer
have a nice day
@Eyema
Okay, thank you....^_^
Oh, i almost forget, when i hold menu in my phone, every running history application should has their icon right ? but why the application installer (for example) had no icon when i hold menu button (the icon appear green with android logo), can you help this ? and how to copy whole phone memory to pc or sd card, or maybe access whole phone memory from pc with root access to ? I use root explorer but not all from phone memory coppied
Thank You
GOD BLESS US
looks like the app doesn't have icon set for this i realy don't know. i think you cant copy the whole phone memory.
i never tried yet to copy from pc to phone memory i always copy from SD card or on it and with root explorer for permissions i think this is the safest way.
@Eyama
Okay, no problem thank you....^_^
this application has the icon set because before my trouble all application missing, when i press the menu button it has icon....^_^
Eyama, can you teach me about rom ? maybe i think i want to change my stock rom, what is freaking fast rom ? and my data and application will be lost if i use another rom ? if yes how to fix it? can you help me to copy/ backup my game save game, widget, and application master (apk) to sdcard or pc ?
Sorry i'm to many ask, thank you
GOD BLESS US
well then try to reinstall it
If you have Mini Pro than you can use this(only for mini pro not for mini)
the freaking fast rom is FroyoComb maded by D4.
yes you lose all data, applications, sms, mms, contacts
you can make backup for data, apps and save game with titanium backup i dont know how is with sms, mms and contact. i save them on pc with my phone explorer.
i you want to install custom rom first you need to see if you have right baseband like this:Baseband Required: M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015
Kernel Required: 2.6.29
you can see it in setting/about phone
then for froyocomb you nedd CWM Recovery not Xrecovery.
i recomended you to try everything with Mini Rom Maneger
it is the simpelest app for installing CWM recovery and downloadig custom rom via phone.
But it is good to have look on XPERIA X10 Mini Pro Android Development thread and you will see how it goes everything
@Eyama
Thank you, where is the best your currently rom or froyocomb ?
With your guide, my basebrand and my kernel same like what you write, ithink i cant back up sms, contact mms via backup and restore application from sony ericsson, what is cwm recovery is it no problem if i have xrecovey in my phone ? what is "freaking fast rom"? And how to insert profile picture and avatar in my xda profile ?
Thank you for your advice and guide, sorry for ask to many question....^_^
GOD BLESS US
click in my signature on name of rom
FroyoComb v1.5
CyaNoComb v1.1 and
CyaNo(R)Evolution v1.3
Yes u can backup with sony ericsson but you wont be able to restore it in custom rom.
so that's why you need to backup with difrent app.
for data and apps use titanium backup
for sms, mms, contacts use Backup everything you have this app on market for free.
CWM Recovery is improvment of Xrecovery
The easyest way to change from Xrecovery to CWM Recovery is to flash this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1059361
You have 2 options for download in your case download MiniCM v5.0 Final Release | for xRecovery
when you install this rom you will get Cwm recovery with it.
for fraking fast rom i just wrote that beacuse this rom is realy fast in every thing (FroyoComb v 1.5)
For profile picture and avatar you all have in USER CP if something u don't know how to you have a guide:

@Eyama
Thank you, how about using mini rom manager like you said ?
With xrecovery in my phone, can i use mini rom manager like you said ? and how to use cwm recovery ?
Thank you
GOD BLESS US
well mini rom maneger is te app that you can download custom roms from xda
than you can install CWM recovery just by pressing button.
yes you can use rom maneger with xrecovery.
cwm recovery is basically just like xrecovery but is a litle bit improved and better.
@Eyama
Thank you, Are there any way to install cwm recovery like use apk ?
So to use cwm recovery must reboot phone and press back button like xrecovery ?
GOD BLESS US
yes there is download this rom MiniCM v5.0 Final Release | for xRecovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1059361
an put it on sd card leave it in .zip (do not unzip it or raname it)
when you are in xrecovery
select Full Wipe (factory reset)
then in advanced select wipe dalivk cache and battery stats
than select install custom zip
select chose custom zip from sd card and navigate to .zip
select the zip and wait to finish installation.
when is finished reboot phone
first boot will take a litle bit long so dont be afraid
after this you will have custom rom and CWM recovery.
Yes to use CWM recovery is the same way like xrecovery rebot and pressing back button or with custom rom you have an option to reboot into cwm rec. press and hold off button and then press reboot and chose recovery
@Eyama
Okay, thank you
If i want to use froyocomb ? so to do it ? mini rom manager will download dwm but it take charges....TT_TT any other way ?And how to backup widget ?
GOD BLESS US
well install this rom as i told you an you will get with cusom rom cwm recovery.
if you dint like MiniCM v5 rom you can download Froyocom v1.5 from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1085607
and install it like you install in xrec
but alway when you are changing roms backup everything an than in cwm rec factory reset(ful wipe) then wipe dalvik cache and wipe partition cache
you cant backup widgets only you can backup app witch have widgets
These are the steps I followed yesterdat night to update my Lg optimus p500 to Android 4. I have collected all these from different posts & Sites, So thanks to them who really made this possible. After reading lot of posts you might be confused about the steps & Base band. I m telling you a simple way-
STEP 1- Attach your phone to LG pc suit & update phone software so that by default your phone base band will be updated to 20_ . You can see it from settings > About Phone.
Step - 2 Root Your Phone.
1. First of all, grab root package from the link ( http://depositfiles.com/files/lou8ae8uh )
2. And download needed driver pack , and install on pc then reboot pc (http://depositfiles.com/files/a45wh9f07 )
3. Enable usb debugging mode by going to settings>applications>developer on phone.
4. Extract root.rar to safe place like desktop.
5. Go to ADB folder , if you are on window 7 run cmd7.exe OR if you are using Windows xp then run cmdXP.exe .
6. After starting cmd7 or cmdXP, type following commands in Red Color
adb devices
then
adb shell
(symbol will change to $ or #)
echo 1 > /data/local/lge_adb.conf
7. After doing this, Reboot your phone
8. Now go to root folder on desktop again, and start SuperOneClick.exe
9. Select GingerBreak method and press root button
10. Wait few seconds and its done.
STEP- 3
1. Install Rom Manager from market on phone.
2. In rom manager application Click on install clockworkmod..
3. Boot Your Phone in Recovery Mode (Volume Down + Home + power Key)
4. Go to the main recovery menu and follow the below steps one after another to wipe data, cache and system.
‘Wipe Data/Factory Reset’ –> Yes
Mounts and Storage’ –> Format /system –> Yes.
‘Mounts and Storage’ –> Format /boot–> Yes.
‘Advanced’ –> Wipe Dalvik cache –> Yes
5. Switch off Phone & Remove memory card.
Now You are going to install rom-
6. Put the Rom & Gapp files (You can download from Here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1614420 ) on your SD Card’s main folder (With help of card Reader) for easy navigation since the recovery mode is tough to navigate with hard keys.
7. Put memory card back to phone & Reboot the phone in recovery mode again, After this choose install zip from sdcard option
8. Select the ROM (the same file that you just downloaded, beta_testing.zip) to install – your ROM will begin to install.
9. Once installed press the back button few times to go back to the main screen of Clockwork Recovery.
10. Choose reboot system now
11. Reboot Phone in Recovery mode & again install Gaapp app from sd card similarly & Reboot phone again.
People who wants exter like SD partition
WARNING!
THIS WILL DELETE EVERYTHING!
(SD CARD AND YOUR CURRENT ROM)
I am going to explain how to partition your sdcard for more user app memory..
This will give you about 1GB of storage to store more apps on!
1. Backup everything from your sd card and apps
(this will format your sd card and apps)
2. Boot into clockworkmod
3. Go to advance
4. - Partition SD Card
5. - 1024M (1GB)
(recommended for smaller sd cards)
6. - 0M
After this step the phone will just sit there for a while just leave it alone and it will say done when it's done!
Important!
- Wipe Dalvik Cache
- wipe data/factory reset
- wipe cache partition
Reboot your phone/ or install a custom rom (your choice as described above)
Download Link2SD from the market
Run Link2SD and a thing should pop and click on ext2 then reboot the phone..
First step can be simplified.
I used Unlock Root tool to root my phone 2nd time after i unbrick it.
And it works!
http://www.unlockroot.com/index.htm
The phone must be in debuging mode.
There are tons of guides already...and u must mention about wiping before flashing the zip! Otherwise this guide is wrong!

Are you sure you followed the steps exactly as you have written?
Coz i think without boot partition, the device would not be able to boot unless you install a new rom(which has boot partition) before switching off or rebooting.

I've tried that already, you can boot into recovery, but not start the OS. Then the Fastboot Mode appears.

Our phone doesn't have official ICS.Only custom made ICS is there.Therefore u need a rooted phone to flash it.Just like flashing custom ROMs.
It wont unroot ur device.
OP: I think u should edit ur post and put a proper guide.Otherwise people will be mislead.

Yep it'll unroot ur device.If ur on a custom rom, u have to flash official firmware (either froyo or GB).
Eitherway it unroots ur device.But now rooting is just a minutes work so better to update the baseband and root again.
P.S. I think u can update the baseband without flashing original firmware, but I am not sure about it.May be u could search for it.
This might help u : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15250036

Hey guys,
I am completely new to this whole topic so I read several hours and finally came up with a plan for what to do to install omega when my Galaxy S3 i9300 (my first android phone) will arrive tomorrow.
If you spot any mistakes I would make (also in the files I plan on using), please correct me!
1. Upgrading to Jellybean with Kies
2. Installing CWM (File name is CF-SGS3-CWM-v5.5-v1.5 - It's a .tar) via Odin 3.0.4 in download mode- I think I know how to do that
3. Rebooting in Recovery mode and creating a Backup File with CWM - I think I know how to do that
4. Saving the Backup file from the clockworkmod\backup folder on my PC
5. Rebooting in recovery mode and wiping data, cache and dalvik cache - I think I know how to do that
5. Copying the .zip file of Omega to (a folder called root??) internal SD-Card folder of the Galaxy S3 (File name is I9300_Omega_v31_XXDLJ4_Jelly_Bean)
6. Rebooting in recovery mode again and selecting “install zip from SD card” to install the Omega zip
7. Customize like a boss
done
(optional)
8. Realize something doesn't work properly and spam the forums with QQ threads OR Realize I bricked my brand new phone and cry furiously
Thanks in advance for letting me know if my plan needs adjustment

Flash recovery
Do factory reset, than wipe dalvik.
Than flash Omega.
Finally reboot and enjoy
But I'm recommending InsertCoin, because it is easy theamble with better themes, very stable (still haves some problems, but reboot solves them), mostly no lags, good memory managing.

Hey,
thanks for your answer! I have to install jellybean first if I want to install a ROM for Jellybean, right? So I guess that's not explicitly in the instructions but it's still a requirement?? Or does Omega install Jellybean itself?
I am really not sure, but I think I have to install Jellybean first.

hi i have used mindcr 2.9 rom i like it but wanted ro try different rom. well i have flashed mindcr many times cause i deleted something i need. so i toght i should try ankther rom in this case i chose simplicity v4 . but i cold not go into download mode only recovery so i wanted to flash back stock rom but i coldnt tried everything epcept the usb jig .. anyways i sent it to repair.. ill be getting it tomorrow. it was working only thing download mode did not work i tried all methods no luck . so here is my question... can you install another rom over mindcr with cwm? i search and many people said yes. so i did an phone got hard brick. if it dont matter then the procedure that i followes was wronf. are all roms installed trhu cwm in sd ca rd always the same dprocedure??? if so should i used the mindcr that i been using. any link for simplicity v4 ultimate i dont want v5 procedure from mind ans simplicity were almost the same are roms always installed the same procedure? i think if u can install a rom over anoher rom installed procedure from place i followed bricked my phone... thanks
It is best to install a Rom over stock. Even flashing over a Rom works sometimes. And yes every Rom is installed through cwm or e3 recovery. Simplicity v4 should be flashed the same way as mindcr Rom.

It is best to install a Rom over stock. Even flashing over a Rom works sometimes. And yes every Rom is installed through cwm or e3 recovery. Simplicity v4 should be flashed the same way as mindcr Rom.

i aint staying stock hahah just want tobmake sure i dobit the rifht way... thanks guys
When you go into CWM recovery, there should be a section called Backup/Restore. Back up here, it Will take about 150mb-350mb of your sd card depending on what you have. So if flashing your Rom goes wrong you can go back to CWM and restore.
Then follow the procedure which is
- Root
- CWM
- Mount everything (it should look like unmount/system, unmount/data etc)
- wipe data and cache
- Advanced » wipe dalvik cache
- Mount everything again
- Install .zip from sd. Find the Rom and flash it.
This procedure will definitely work. If it doesn't just restore and try again.
Also, don't say thanks, but press it if I helped you
