ok so I'm kinda new to all this. I have the dark side rom flashed with clockwork mod recovery and I've heard of a new update and I was wondering about if I did an OTA update would I get bricked? Also if I try to flash another rom it gets stuck at the boot logo. Am I doing something wrong? Also I would kind if like a non-ginger like rom if anyone knows of any.
Thanks

Avoid OTA updates, the devs will have the updated build available quickly.
Try using romracer's recovery.

Hi,
I need some help, i flashed my optimus v to rodimus just now with ROMTOOLS, but it went to a black screen after a LG logo, i can go to recovery and I did flash the stock rom but the same thing happened, I also tried to change the bootanimation thinking that was the problem but it didnt fix it.
Oh and I reinstalled the stock rom this way:
recovery menu->install zip from sdcard->choose zip from sdcard->ROM.zip
I hope im doing it right,
Thanks!
Can someone please help, i really need to do this, help is appreciated!
There's a thread in here about that. I believe its something to do with a kernel issue between newer and older V's. Did you do a nandroid backup before you flashed? If so you should be fine

I have a rooted stock ROM, and Im wondering if theres a way to install just CRT animation on the phone?
Do you have a custom recovery installed? If so flash this - http://dev-host.org/rS3

For some reason I cannot flash 4.0 roms. I wipe everything and format system but still no go. I get stuck at a black screen after the red Moto boot logo.
Any help would be great. Thanks
Is your system up to date. I've noticed that they all state your phone must be at version 6.12.173... I've had mine about a week, and it was at 6.11, and I had to flash the update manually as the ota wasn't taking. I have yet to try an ICS rom though.
Think someone also had a problem because they were not using the latest version of Safestrap.

I'm not new to rooting or installing custom roms but my note has me stumped. I followed all the guidelines with rooting and after flashing a new kernal through odin my phone would be stuck at the samsung splash screen. Figuring I bricked It I flashed the stock one and now my phone wont get past the Telus splash screen.
Did I cook this phone? I had no issues with my S and S2 before this I cant figure it out.

You are ok. That is a bad flash. Just reread the instructions then carefully redo your work.
Ranger is correct....
You are soft bricked ....and simply need a good cleaning and reflash ...g
Yeah try a good factory reset

Well thanks guys the only way I managed to get it working was to flash the stock at&t rom. Now if I can just figure out why it's not letting me install a custom rom then ill be set. I'll just keep it digging in the super thread

You need to install a custom recovery to install a custom Rom

I'm using clockwork touch but when I select roms from my sdcard it gives me an error and fail.
Is CWM touch the latest version ??
You may need to update your recovery.
I'm running TWRP 2.3.2.3 and have no flashing issues ...g
Use twrp recovery! The cwm touch found in a lot of these root threads is out of date and will give you errors! I got stuck in boot loop too and had to do this!

Hey Guys,
I'm kinda lost and haven't found anything the forum that remotely resembles my problem.
I have a rooted EVO 4G LTE with CM10 JB 4.1. I'm sick of the ****ty camera picture quality and constant freezing while taking pictures (just freezes then the phone reboots) so i'm trying to go to a more of a stock rom that I'll just customize with launchers etc.
My question is, since I can't update the OTA from the rom, do i need to flash the new kernel and the stock rooted rom and if so what order? The other question I had if I do need to install the new kernel does it have to be in the root of the internal SD or external SD?
I tried flashing some of the newer stock rooted roms and none of them would work. I would get the message (bad) when trying to update through recovery. I thought at first that just meant a corrupted zip file but when trying 3 different roms that all said the same thing I thought maybe it could be because the kernel is different then what I have.
At any rate, if anyone could help with a link to some kind of guide (if anyone knows of one) or just some general directions that would be insanely helpful.
Thanks for any help offered!
Download the Rom of your choice. Pull the boot img from that Rom. That is the kernel you need to flash. The fact that your asking this question I would reccomend using the app " flash image gui". You can flash the boot img from your current Rom then immediately boot into recovery and flash the Rom.

Haha, yeah. Thanks! I like to dabble but I wouldn't call myself any kind of pro. I just wasn't sure if the rom would stay stable if I updated the kernel will still in the OS. Anyways, thanks again! :good:
Hey man I didn't wanna come off like I'm some kind of expert cause I know enough to get myself in trouble that's about it, but I have some expierence with a s-on device.
If your not sure just read some more. A good thread is "don't panic" in the Q&A section.
You should be fine tho
good luck
