Here's my situation. When I first unlocked and rooted, I made a nandroid backup of the stock, pre ota Rom. I then installed ineffabilis 1.0 and made a backup of that. I'm currently on Nils ICS Rom but I need to restore to one of my gb backups. I'm using amon ra.
I tried restoring both of my backups with the same results. They seem to restore with no errors but I get stuck at a blank screen after the splash screen. I can only restore to my ICS backup.
So I tried it a couple more times, this time restoring the backup then flashing the 1.02 kernel. But I still get the same results, a blank screen after the splash screen. I don't see any errors, no main version is older garbage. It just doesn't work. I've read every thread I can find and just don't know what to do to restore a gb Rom.
I finally tried just a fresh install of ineffabilis gb and got the same thing.
Any ideas?

I think you may need to flash a GB kernel after installing the GB ROM (or restoring your backup). My understanding is the ICS ROMS require a different kernal, and the GB ROMS don't overwrite it automatically. there's a pretty good thread stickied in the Dev section that has links to several kernels.

That shouldn't affect getting the ROM on there though. It only affected my wifi.
Silver, I was able to both restore my GB Ineffabilis nand and flash it fresh after OTA. Don't know why you are having trouble.

Hmm. Apparently reading comprehension is not your strongest skill. I said I read every thread in here and still could not get it to work. But thanks for not helping me out at all. :thumbup:
Anyway. I did finally get it to work. I had to do a clean install then flash the kernel provided with the Rom. Which I know I had tried a couple days ago too. But it worked this time. But I still wasn't able to do a nand restore. My backups could be fubar maybe. Thanks guys

Did you try flashing a GB kernel first? I may have done that before restoring or flashing the GB ROM, can't recall. But it's worth a shot.

I think we posted at the same time. Lol. It's working now. I tried every combo I could think of. Kernel them Rom. Rom then kernel. I was using a kernel from another thread but it wasnt working for me. I had to flash the Rom and kernel from that Rom.

Yeah, you snuck a little edit in on me!
I didn't have trouble getting the ROM on but I couldn't get my wifi working until I flashed the exact same kernel as I had before, no other GB kernel would get wifi going. Finicky little phone.
Glad to see you're back up and running!

If we wanted to get back to stock, how would we go about that? Is there a kernel removal method? Flash stock kernel? If so, where can I find the stock kernel? Thanks and sorry for the trouble.
Does any one know why, I just flashed 1.76 and now maps fc. Also what to do about it?

Try uninstalling and installing again maps.apk?
I'm having GPS issues on 1.76, even after 5 minutes of standing outside in a open area the GPS will never fully lock. My GPS locks within seconds when using 1.54 so it is def something going on with the 1.76 kernel. Let me know if I can help you debug this further.

Ok, so we can just flash the kernel without wiping? Do we need DJ05?
After we flash, can we still do Nandroid and restore Nandroid?

I dont think you NEED dj05, but that is the biggest improvement for battery life I have found. The 1.54 and 1.76 kernels were made for dj05 and im sure work best with it. The first one is for di01 and should not be used if you have dj05. But stupid fast is stupid fast and thank you geeknik for your work. As far as wiping, I think it is a good idea to wipe everytime some times twice to get rid of the klinging on things.

It was nice, and I dont wanna crap on the hard work put into it..
It's acting kind of flakey, I wonder if re-flashing it would help, I might try that first then maybe go back to stock.....
Ive had very few issues with CM9 and ive followed it from the beginning Alpha stages.. Try a different version if you have issues. To each his own for sure some people will like others won't. I personally cant be taken away from it. Ive had VERY few network issues where it wouldn't connect and the not working items list gets smaller each day, its basically down to video camera in stock app and few other minor things. As for going back to stock if you need super detail check out QBKing77 on youtube, he has a video of exactly what to do.
I am currently running beta-0.1.0-2d-cm-9.0.0-RC0-Sunfire-KANG-signed, maybe I should just upgrade to beta-0.5.0-cm-9.0.0-RC0-sunfire-UNOFFICIAL-signed. If I do that, I pretty much follow the directions I did to flash the original correct??

When coming from previous cm9 build just wipe system in mounts and storage and flash thr newer build onto it via clockworkmod recovery.

I will give that a try, I tried 3 or 4 times yesterday but it would get stuck on the M duel core screen.
Restored the back up I had and it was ok then.

The way i got that rom to work on my photon was to run the original rom, then go back and flash the most recent version, that worked perfectly for me!
I will give that a whirl after after work, thanks....
Finally, got it going, further reading figured out to flash the rom twice in a row, currently running 0.5.0, had to flash the CDMA fix to get the signal, running great, much smoother then the 0.1.0......

Exactly ! Isn't that one major reason/benefit for rooting ? That is, so the user can remove "bloat" ?
Know what will happen ? You'll create a debloated version and some will complain that you removed "that program" or "this program" !!
Noob question - Debloated ICS
This might be a dumb question and if so, please forgive me. I learned to root and flash ROMs in December, I'm currently running Liquid ICS v1.5 MR3.But I don't know a thing about kernels and I'm wary of flashing radios. So my question is - is Santod (or any developer for that matter) working on a ROM for the official ICS that you can just flash (without messing with radios and kernels and other steps)? Is that what he/they mean when they say they are working on a "build". I'm "ok" flashing ROMs and I'd like to have the "official" ICS, but if it requires that level of technicality, I'll unroot and download the OTA.
Any info you could provide would be helpful.

if you got as far as rooting and flashing a rom, then you can flash a radio. don't be afraid of it. it's no more difficult than flashing a rom, and much easier than actually rooting.

One other question. If I flash your NuSense Unsense ROM (but don't change the radios) will I have the basic functionality of the "official" ICS? I love the lack of data drops but I HATE the "sense". Could I use an "old" ROM and a "new" radio for this stability?

Either place the md5 for the rom zip on the sd card, or remove the md5 sum check that the recovery is doing.
There should be a setting to disable the md5 sum check in Recovery.
MD5 sum is a digital signature that verifies that the file is complete or not.
Just disable the check for it and you can install without it.

I'm curious about something regarding the newer ROMs in the dev forum. Why do so many of the newer ROMs coming out insist that you have to be on the JB OTA before flashing? I'm familiar with flashing on other phones where you just wipe and flash, and move on with life. Does this have to do with the radio/modem? And if that's the case, could you not just flash the ROM and then a modem? I'm just trying to get some clarification stemming from genuine confusion.
Not really sure but could it maybe have something to do with the trust/compatibility deal thing?? Idk I was wondering the same question in op. By no means is this the answer I was just throwing this out there. Hopefully someone can shed some light.

No, its the tz partition that is only changed throught the OTA/LGNSPTing that is needed. I'm not quite sure of all the specifics, but this tz partition is what you need to flash these new roms.
Excellent explanation, much thanks. Quick follow up question now... Once the OTA update is done, is that more or less permanent for the purposes of ROM flashing? In other words, does the phone have to be put back to stock every time I want to change ROMs?
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda app-developers app
You only need to do it would once. Once the tz is put in place it stays, unless you lgnpst to the n4 conversion or to ICS. Flashing a ROM in recovery won't change it.
Beautiful. That's what I figured, but better to ask before bricking my phone. Thanks again.

Standard "I'm not a developer but..." disclaimer here. You can either revert to the stock ICS build and get the OTA update, then re-root/unlock, or I seem to remember a flashable stock 4.1.2 zip file in the development section that is supposed to take care of the TZ stuff to let you move on with life.
Feel free to correct me if that's not good information, though.

I already lngpost-ed to the 4.1.2 and then rooted and then flashed one of these newer roms. My question is really can I go from one of these roms to another without going back to the stock 4.1.2 and rooting again?
That is my understanding. Once you have the TrustZone partition set up from the stock JB, it's there and you don't have to mess with it again. Unless you do something that kills it, like go back to an ICS rom.

Sweet. Thanks for the help. I'll post back if for some reason it does not work
Good question OP, I was wondering the same thing and this LGNPST thing is confusing.
So, I am currently running SnowJB (which I believe is 4.1.2?)
Do I need to do the LGPNST in order to install these newer ROMs, such as Vanilla Rootbox? Or am I all set to go ahead and flash new ROM?
To anyone confused, ask yourself...
Did you receive the 4.1.2 (JB) update over the air OR did you use lgnpst to flash to 4.1.2?
If yes, then you can begin flashing as usual without having to lgnpst every time you change ROMs.
If you haven't used one of these methods then you need to do one first before flashing the new ROMs.
Simple as that.

Okay so just got my Thunderbolt rooted the other day. (Thanks to the santod and disconnecktie!)
I went on and flashed stock ICS just so I could have a workable phone until I had time to sit down and look at other ROMS. So searching around I found CyanogenMod, and it seems neat but apparently doesn't work on the Thunderbolt.
So what is a good alternative. I'm honestly not really sure what I'm looking for at this point other than doing cool stuff with my phone. All the stuff you can do in Cyanogen seemed pretty awesome.
Thanks in advance.
The best alternative to have a decently usable phone would be unsense over at Infected.

Okay, this leads to another couple of questions in the interest of not messing up...
What does this mean?
"The Add-ons that YOU MUST flash after the rom has booted once are also being updated.
Please redownload them when you download the rom. "
Does it do this automatically? Do I need to flash a bunch of stuff?
And this..I think the only thing I have installed is OTA killer, but shouldn't basically everything be wiped?
"No mods made for the stock rom should be flashed to these custom roms. "
Or is it just not to install anything after you flash the ROM?
