i have a CF-ROOT with KF3.
i flashed lightening rom and lost the CWM that i got with CF-ROOT..i only know how to use the CWM wasnt able to use the ROM Manager.
plz can someone suggest some custom rom that would have cwm preinstalled like the cf-root and wouldnt need a factory wipe.
Sorry for being such a noob.
plz help.
Regards,
Just flash the CF root again, it will come back
Regards.
i tried doing that with lightening rom installed...but it doesn't come back..so i had to use my previous nandroid backup to retyrn to square 1
i'm looking for a rom that wouldnt wipe my data and wouldnt cause me to lose CWM..
would this work (the no wipe version)..??

no need to worry its not a big problem, the reason you lost your CWM is because the kernal which comes with ligtening rom doesnt hav CWM. you can install a kernal with CWM like speedmod's kernal

I have an LG Optimus One running 2.2.2 latest firmware V10e. Recently, I rooted my device and installed ClockWorkMod Recovery and the Lagfix+OC Kernel by der_caverman. I am using the Stock ROM with that Kernel.
My question is when the official Gingerbread Update comes out by LG, will I be able to update it with the official LG software updater or will it not work because I have ClockWorkMod Recovery installed.
If not, how can I remove ClockWorkMod Recovery get my original Recovery Back???
any help would be appreciated!

nope. you can upgrade at any time if u are staying with ur oem rom even if u are rooted. only thing is that u will lose ur root previllage after the update.
its alwayes advisable to have a custom recovery and custom rom. cause it can take nandroid backups(will save your day if anything goes wrong)

Can you please tell me can I upgrade without doing anything??? I have rooted my phone and installed AmonRa recovery, and I'm on stock rom 2.2.2 10e (I have just flashed some framework that I made on UOT kitchen).

it is risky since you have changed the frame work.if i were you i will do the following.
1)unroot the phone( if u have used gingerbreak use the same to unroot)
2)down load the original recovery from http://www.megaupload.com/?f=XGKNWZQJ and flash. thus u can getrid of amonra and get back original p500 recovery
3)reboot and hard reset and upgrade.
4) since u are now on original recovery and in unrooted condition if any thing goes wrong u can claim warrenty.
let me ask u why u need an upgrade? to get lot of crapwares? or to get amere 600mhz kernal? or to get a laggy phone with mere 60 mb of internal storage space to install all ur apps? or to have adds on every apps?

its stable,beautiful,oced and updated gingerbread.
Thanks for your answer!
And I understand you when you ask me why do I need official update, because I agree that official rom = creap And thats why the first thing that I have done when I rooted my phone was to uninstall all the bloatware from it
I will for sure flash miks rom when he base it on official gingerbread, and if I have a little time for weekend current mod that you recommended (I only hesitate because of the bugs - I know there are just a couple of them, but...). I tried yesterday francos kernel v151, but I'm experiencing color bending in lower half of a screen with it...

ya its up to you to decide...and i agree with u absolutly.but i aint had any problems with mik's 6.5.2(not using francos ker cause some error with cpu freq settings, u have to use setcpu).

you mean to flash it from amonra recovery, right? (I know, it's a noob question, but better to be safe then sorry

yes its a flashable unsigned zip.but if u r using amonra to flash( cause it is unsigned) u have to uncheck the option "toggle signature verify" first.Amonra wont allow u to flash unsigned zips unless u do the above.
ps:if original recovery is flashed u will lose all the options in amonra and the only option will be the hard reset option.
there is a good how to section if u wish...

If you want to get back to factory default. Kies would flash a generic rom for your phone. Madmack 1.5 is either the rom or the theme of your phone. Is it a custom rom or stock rom you want to install?
i just want a factory rom for download in case something goes wrong .. and i want to install dlevs rom or criskelo rom ..
or is it safe for me to install roms? and my phone will alwayz be rooted???
i dont want to go for stock . but if my phone goes dead then i need a stock firmware??

Yes it is safe to install Roms. If you do it wrong you will just get a soft brick easily recoverable. Read the forums on how to flash a rom and kernel
First download odin ill attach it for you:
Second download .tar kernel here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1263838
Flash the kernel with Odin
Download CriskeloRom, his thread can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1168836

Stock kernels are not that good! Custom kernels come with a lot more features, Way faster performance, smoother and just all round better!!. With regular updates i do see that it is necessary for me anyway. It takes 2 seconds to install
If you need me to install the kernel PM me?
my battery timings are very good now .. if i install siyah kernel will it eat my battery or give me good time ??? and im using iptables+proxydroid right now bcoz i am behing a proxy server.. will iptables work on roms??

If anything it will make your battery times even better and im sure of this. Well if it worked before on stock kernel and stock rom there is no reason why it wouldnt work on custom kernels and roms

Hi ,
I have a galaxy sII i9100g And i Flashed a kernel i went into cwm and Backed up the stock rom So if i flash a rom can i restore the stock rom's Backup ik i can do it with custom roms i dont know if i can with Custom ROms so yeah Please Andser
you can backup/restore both stock/ custom roms, the default will restore the whole backup replcaing the existing one, you can make advanced restore to restore specific backup.
well i restore many times if iam not happy wiv the custum rom so yes u can restore back but hav a proper backup and don wipe the whole phone as the backup goes off sometimes.

Yea you can restore your stock rom any time with Cwm recovery. As long as you have cwm recovery in your new custom rom you can acess your backups. So be sure you flash cwm recovery on your custom rom btw most of rom's come with cwm so you don't have to worry if not you can flash cwm recovery from odin too. Just search on google about cwm touch
Hope it helped you.
Thanks me i my words are helpfull.
Thanks You All cuz im not happy with this rom i wanted to go back..thanks again

As far as my expereriance, after restoring a ROM form your backup it is always a good idea to wipe Cache and dalvik cache befor rebooting. (not the factory reset..that will wipe your applications this you do before restoring only)
how will you restore to stock via CWM if CWM is via a rooted kernel .
It will be a non stock kernel .

I think here everybody meant by "Stock" is the first ROM which was there in the phone..no matter its rooted with a custom kernel.....

But its not original and voids warranty if restored was my point .
Far easier to grab a download of the original rom .
OP did say stock rom and not custom rom so the answer is as always not via CWM its no longer a stock rom once rooted .

hey guys.. am still new to the world of ANDROID.. so i need some help please..
i wanted to update my GB Samsung Galaxy SII rom to the ICS rom.. so i wanted to start by rooting..
i rooted my phone and everything went okay and i also removed the Yellow Triangle..
my problem is.. now i want to flash a new rom to my S2..
i booted into recovery mode..
1st problem is that i didn't find a "Backup & Recovery" option as i saw in many videos..
the main problem is that i wiped the cash and the user data
but when i clicked on apply * from sdcard !!
and choosed the rom i've downloaded.. it didn't work.. i had an error saying that E: Signature Verification Failed
so.. and when i wanted to do a recovery using the CWM app.. i didn't find the backup and recovery option
if you have acsess to download mode, then reroot your phone, then you will gain acsess again to recovery & backup.

Sorry, I didn't express myself correctly. I meant you can reflash a stock unrooted firmware (kernel, rom) and then root it again.
okay guys.. am so sorry for the mistake i've made.. my probles was that i was going to the reboot mode using the cwm.. not the up-home-power buttons..
i told you am still new .. i thought they are the same .. anyway...
i recovered the rom with all the apps and everything is okay now.. but
the question is why i can't flash that rom ?? .. even with the right recovery mod it's still doesn't want to be flashed. ??
could it be because of the version of the rom ! ??
and is there a way to know what rom can i flash ??
and i also have a problem.. it's that the samsung kies isn't supporting my device.. i used it once and after rooting my cell it doesnt want to work again.. ??

First off you don't need to be rooted to up grade your firmware. The best source for firmwares is Samfirmware.com where you download a tar. file then flash it in the PDA section of odin. Please read the sticky threads in this forum as there is loads of good advice and guides from expert users. All the best.

Thank you all guys.. i flashed the ICS 4.0.4 firmware to my Galaxy S2 I9100.. and everything is okay..
now i am wondering how to root it ?
is it the same way for the GB?
actually i tried the same way but when i flashed the CF Root --LPH my phone died !! .. i mean it begin restarting every time i turn it on..
my Baseband version is I9100XXLQ6
and the kernal version is I900JPLPH
please send me a link that works..
There are a couple of methods to root. If you only want to root and not bother with custom ROMs, kernels and the like, use Rachmat3's temporary cwm to get root. Search for it.
If you wanna install custom ROMs, you could install a the TAR version of a custom kernel like siyah or dorimanx via Odin. Steps on how to do so can again be found with a simple search.

This should do,
1) Backup everything
2) Install Siyah Kernel (latest: http://www.gokhanmoral.com/?p=1536) using Odin (tar file)
3) Now you are rooted with Siyah Kernel and a CWM based recovery
4) You can then install any ROM/Kernel of your choice (if you need)
But "Search" - There are countless threads
thanks alooott
i really dunno how to thank you guys.. everything is working now as i want it to be.. thank you all guys ..
if i need some more advanced help who should i ask.. things more like programming
because,
i am 3rd year student and i am studying Communication and Computer Networks engineering.. and i am thinking about doing a programing project..
so if any one can help me.. i'll be so thankful ..
again thank you all guys
Do you have disabled the signature verification in recovery before flashing the rom?? Try this and see...
