hello people,
i tried uot kitchen and made a custom status bar. after i got it from the pickup page i extracted it. when i saw it there were a lot of files. so my question is that what do i flash using odin. the files are app, framework, META-INF, and settings.its probably one of the last two files.
Flash the zip in CWM recovery. Or you could push the apk files to your phone using adb or root explorer. Just make sure framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk go to /system/framework/ and systemui.apk goes to /system/app

which zip do i flash? in the settings file or the meta one? and if i use the second option do i have to erase the previous files of framework and the other one?
You flash the whole zip file that includes those folders and files. You don't extract it after downloading it.

when i tried to flash the whole zip file odin doesnt recognize it. so how am i supposed to flash that?
In the how to page on there website it says reboot into recovery. Wipe cache nd then flash it. Does the flash part mean the "apply update from SD card"? If so I tried it but it didn't work. So how am I supposed to make this work??????
You flash with CWM, not ODIN. They are totally different things. In CWM recovery you choose 'install zip from sd card' then browse to the zip file and select it.

How do you get in cwm recovery mode? Y pressing the volume up key and holding the power button right?? The options are reboot apply update from SD card factory reset and wipe cache. Which one do i do? When I tried the second option it didn't work.
hahah okay first thing you do is make shure you have the zip in one piece and in your internal sd card. Then completely turn off your device. then hold the vol up and power button at the same time. you should then be in cwm. what you do is choose install .zip from internal storage. go down to your uot file and select it. then select yes. it will install and then go back and back again and then choose reboot now. It should work. Thanks button.
You do have a kernel that has CWM recovery in it right? Either rumirands or Entropy's have CWM, but not the stock kernel.
Sent from my Galaxy Player 4.0 (YP-G1)
Oh so that's the problem....after I download the entropy kernel I will try to do it.
I followed the instructions but after I flashed the zip and it said that it was successful nothing has changed. I rebooted and still nothing. I used the Galaxy update-binary. All I was flashing was a package with a custom battery and boot animation.
another problem has come up. when i put my player in download mode my laptop doesnt recognize it......
ok so i got to the cwm recovery mode and then did all the stuff and then iinstalled it. i then rebooted it but there was no change...is there anyway to make it work!!!????
(but the kernel worked out....so yea ^_^)

I downloaded Mcnut R13 and unzipped it. Where do I find the pit file and the tar file for PDA using Odin?
You dont unzip it, and you dont need odin to flash mancut, download rom manager and flash it with rom manager.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I see. But is there a way to flash it using Odin? I would like to learn how to use it in case I soft brick it.
So I do have Rom Manager installed already but never used it. It doesn't need to be unzipped?
And how do I change kernels using Rom Manager and Odin?
Please read my sticky's before you continue and mess up your phone.
I've read this guide already. It doesn't really explain how to use Rom Manager. And if it somehow it does and I missed it I apologize.
I'll keep searching in the Q&A forum.
It has the steps to rom manager step by step... not trying to sound rude, just making sure you do not F up.
Check your PM

My apologies. Instructions are there and I read them last night. I just didn't remember reading anything about if the file containing the rom needed to be zipped or unzipped. Unless it was in one of the videos...
Just tried to install from the internal SD card. I placed the unzipped folder in the internal SD under a folder named R13. Then I checked the option to backup the rom but not to wipe data.
Long story short, installation aborted. Message was: Can't open /sdcard/sd/Mcnut_R13.Zip (No such file directory)
Someone told me it had to be unzipped first. But if it's looking for a file that ends in .Zip, maybe this is wrong.
no you don't unzip it at all...
download rom
put it on root of sd card (i.e. not in any folder)
boot into clockworkmod recovery via rom manager
if you get booted into stock recovery just keep choosing 'reinstall packages' until you get into CWM
make a backup of your current rom in case things go wrong
once thats done, choose 'install zip from sdcard' (4th option)
choose 'choose zip from sdcard'
navigate to preferred rom to install and push the power button to flash it
wait for it to finish and then reboot your phone
enjoy
UPDATE: Since some of you guys are still finding this useful, I updated the CWM version to 3.0.2.8. Please note that ROM Manager is the best way to install CWM 3.0.2.8. You should only need this .zip if you need to restore the B&N boot loader.
There are a number of CWM installable .zip files being distributed that break Clockworkmod in a way that Rom Manager will not fix. This .zip file will reinstall the B&N bootloader (to enable the recovery buttons) and install ClockworkMod on your internal memory. This .zip will only help if you have installed a "flashable" .zip and can no longer get into CWM by holding N + Power on boot.
This file can be installed with IOMonster's bootable CWM to re-enable the ability to use CWM without an SD card.
How to use:
1) Create a bootable CWM SD card from the link above.
2) Mount the SD card on your computer and copy the RecoveryFix.zip file to it.
3) Boot the Nook into CWM from the SD card.
4) Choose "install zip from sdcard"
5) Choose "choose zip from sdcard"
6) Browse to the RecoveryFix.zip and select it.
7) Choose "Yes - Install RecoveryFix.zip"
CWM should now work by booting and holding the N + Power buttons.
Technical details:
The bootloader (u-boot.bin) file included with the stock image has code to look for the recovery key sequence on boot. It also contains the "Touch the Future of Reading" splash screen. Some of the update .zip releases include a custom uboot.bin (to change the splash screen) that does not look for the recovery keys...so there's no way to boot into recovery without an SD.
Currently the only automated way to put the correct files back is by using one of the stock recovery .zips. These take the entire system back to stock though. All this .zip does is replace the stock u-boot.bin file, CWM uRecRam and CWM uRecImg files on the /boot partition. This can also be easily fixed by booting any image from an SD card and copying these files manually.
is this for use with any flashable rom or only certain ones? i'm on hcv4 and want to make sure this is safe to use before flashing it.
This worked fantastic! Thank you!

This is a standalone fix - its only necessary if you've flashed a rom and could no longer boot into CWM recovery afterward.
thanks again xawen!
Thanks so much for this! Great work!

It should work with any build. It does not replace any of the build specific files, just the boot loader and the recovery images.
Works on phiremod (CM7). I was stressing why I couldn't reach my internal recovery, but was too lazy to do any research on the matter. Just stumbled upon this and everything is fixed again
Just what I was looking for... thanks!

what do you mean by "everything is fixed again"?
I like phiremod and all, but no internal storage is irking me and I want to go back to rooted stock and try to make a CM7 bootable SD.
Flashed this, now I'm stuck on the "Touch the Future of Reading" splash screen. Running CM7 nightly latest, dalingrin's 1100MHz Overclock.
Edit: Trying to boot, won't get past that damn splash screen. Tried reflashing cm7-encore-full-5.zip, gapps, got nothing. Going to try flashing the overclock again and see if that helps.
Edit2: No dice. I don't have a backup, either. Guess I have to flash a whole new boot.img?
This should be stickied. There are a LOT of CWR files around here right now.

Same thing kept happening to me. I would hold down the power button or power+n button or power+volume up + n button to get the NC to shut down. Then, I'd press the power+volume up + n button for a few seconds; this would get it to boot into CWR. From CWR I'd select reboot system. After that it would have no problem fully booting (until the problem happeend again). I did notice that after a while the startup boot took longer. After pressing the power button to power on the NC it would take several seconds before the "touch the future of reading" screen to come up, and it would take several more seconds (30 or so) for it to get past that screen.
I'm not sure what the beneft is of doing this; as long as I have a CWR bootable microSD with me (always in the NC's case) I don't need this.

Works - after a few tries!
Really appreciate the work. Thanks!

Can you be more specific about exactly which u-boot.bin, uRecRam and uRecImg files are included - including source and version ?

This .zip has the stock (B&N) u-boot.bin and the uRecRam and uRecImg for CWM 3.0.0.5. It was built a while ago to fix an issue with specific CMW installable Froyo .zip files that were being distributed. I haven't seen any CM7 images with this problem, but if anyone still has a need for this I can update to a current CWM version and post tonight.

Aha - I looked more closely and saw that it is an old thread that was brought to the surface by a "thanks" comment.
question
So I flash this fix and can get into CWM 3.0.0.5, then I flash the official CWM 3.0.1.0 and can no longer get into recovery. I also tried the manual procedure using adb. Still no dice.
What am I doing wrong?
So, i am trying to load this new ROM (the Vicious rom). I go into clockwork recovery & select install zip from sdcard, then i choose zip from sdcard, & instead of loading the new rom it says: Finding Update package, opening update package, installing update package, then it is complete....how do i get it to load the rom?
additional info:
I cannot install any ROM now, it runs through this short update process I explained above. Am I missing something that allows the rom to be loaded?
That's how roms are installed. Did you reboot after you installed the rom?
i had issues with clockwork so i used team win recovery here-- http://www.mediafire.com/?ye85b3n1f72nen3
Maybe try this one and see if it helps just put on root of sd card
make sure it is named PG05IMG.ZIP go into the bootloader
by shutting down phone rstarting by holding down volume arrow then power till it comes up in bootloader and do the update

Either you are choosing apply sdcard:update.zip accidentially instead of "install zip from sdcard" or you still have a PG05IMG on your sdcard? If you still have that img on your card, you will have to hook your phone up to your computer > boot into recovery > mounts and storage > mount sdcard > enable usb and find that IMG and delete it. Then go back do your wipes, and install zip from sdcard.
Try redownloading the ROM in case it may have been corrupted during the original download.
Hey, I'm new in the ROM flashing department, so I was wondering if anyone would be able to help. I'm trying to get R.E.D.D. onto my Galaxy Player 5 (YP-G70). I'm running Linux Mint on my laptop, I have heimdall installed, and I have the ROM. But, heimdall asks for a .tar.gz file, but the ROM is in .zip format. I'm sorry if this is a really stupid question, but I'm confused! Help would be appreciated!

How do I install?
To install with Heimdall: Download the appropriate heimdall zip for your device, extract, and flash factoryfs.rfs with heimdall (search around or ask if you need help with heimdall).
To install with CWM: Download the appropriate CWM zip for your device to /sdcard, boot into recovery, go to "mounts and storage", select "format /system", go back to main menu when that finishes, then select "wipe cache partition". After that, go to "install zip from sdcard", select the zip you downloaded. Flash and reboot. With any luck, you'll be done!
If you want to have ICS blue instead of red as the accent color, flash the appropriate blue_patch.zip for your rom version with cwm after installing the rom, or push the contents of the "system" folder inside the zip to their respective places in the /system partition with a root explorer or adb (for advanced users that know what their doing).
A full data wipe is recommended just to keep things clean and may be necessary depending on what rom you are coming from (coming from stock shouldn't be a problem).

That didn't really answer my question. I asked why heimdall is asking for a .tar.gz file instead of the supplied .zip or the factoryfs.rfs file that I extracted

Because when you try to use the heimdall firmware package, it's in tar.gz format so it will necessarily ask for a tar.gz file. To flash separate partitions, you need to go to the flash tab.

I did not backup my rom as the device had no space
I use a Samsung Galaxy Tab 4.7.0 (SM T230NU)
TWRP 3.1.0
So I recently downloaded Cyanangen MOD 11 from a friend I met on XDA. It is file more than 900 MB- I downloaded this to my tablet and Flashed it using TWRP 3.1.0.
Before I flashed the .zip file
I wiped Dalvik Cache, Cache, and system
When these were being wiped I got the message Failed To Mount Cache and system
I did the usual thing everybody did and changed the file system to exfat 4 and fat etc.But I did not wipe one-thing because I was too lazy to change the file system
I flashed the rom and everything went fine, then it said Looking for md5 file or something and then it said skipped md5 file for some reason
It rebooted and I though it would show something, but after 4 hours nothing happened.
I went into the recovery and changed the file system of everything that should be wiped but when I pressed install the rom.zip file was nowhere to be seen and now there is no software for it to run
Every time I reboot it, its stuck on the boot logo and there is no boot animation.
Please Help Me My mother and my brother are very angry at me:crying::crying::crying::crying:

You don't need to change file systems. Put the .zip in a SD Card, and advanced wipe everything, except External SD Card. I would recommend flashing back to stock and re-root it.
