someone just posted a rom in the development forum (cant post in the thread for answer) so im hoping one of you will help a noob out , my phone is flashed to boost and i was wondering if updating to ics will remove my flash to boost ? i know flashing roms will not remove it but since this is a new version with new hboot and stuff.
Someone else is looking for this answr as well check the q&a to see if he found an answer. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

Just read the op to make sure it is just the rom which you would flash through recovery. If its a zip file (pg86img.zip) you flash through the boot loader, its probably going to give you something you don't want.

Can anyone do the Amon RA for Vibrant??? My bro have the evo 4g and he told me is better than Tom manager...
its a great recovery, but rom manager does everything we need, and does it well.
hit up amon on twitter, but I doubt he will do it.....
What's wrong with Clockwork?
It's because I don't know how to delete a kernel with the clockworkmod and mybro told me he can do it with amonra... you know how to do it without use Odin to revert to stock the phone???

why would you want to delete your kernel? just flash another kernel instead..

+1,
just flash a new kernel on top using SGS kernel flasher, its super easy.
Also, SGS Kernel Flasher can do a backup of current kernel, in case you want to go back after flashing a new one!
Amon_Ra is great (my N1) but CWMR is an awesome recovery...no need to go trying to fix what isn't broken.
I know that, I just want to delete it without flash another one...

im confused, why would you want to delete your kernel without flashing a new one. your phone would not boot....
One of us is really confused....guessing its not me
Really dumb to delete a kernel...wtf has happened to these forums?
I'd actually enjoy amon RA also, but cwm serves its purpose well...

Every Rom comes with a kernel, if you flash another one and you don't like it, you can't go back, you need to flash another one to change it... that's the point I'm talking about...

That's what you're supposed to do...or use sgs kernel flasher and backup the current before you flash...
you're confused man...what rom are you on?
Recovery is part of the kernel from what I remember. There isn't a seperate partition for it. Delete kernel u delete recovery. CWMR boots off SD if I'm not mistaken. I forget these things after 2days of parties XP

Okay I made my first Rom, but I can't get it to install after building it and trying to install the zip file. The installation gets aborted and I'm not sure why. There error mentioned tmp/kernel or something like that, but I don't even know why it is looking for anything kernel related since they aren't flashed in recovery. Anyways I guess I just need a quick guide to the part of the Rom that handles instalation.

It depends on which method you want to run. You can use the rootzwiki leak which is a tar file used in Odin. Or you can use dagr8's CWM flashable zip.
Let me know which one you want to use and I'll give you further directions. (Odin method would be easier for newbs)

If you know how to use CWM I'd recommend using that one. I believe if you flash the rootzwiki one you will lose root and CWM.

I have done a nandroid and when you say flash i guess you mean load the exe through odin, if so it comes back as failed all the time, do i have to try a diff com or something.

I would suggest maybe starting with the collective First flight ics it just has fewer steps at this point. What you want to do is download the rom to your sd card and follow the instructions on wiping.
If you need more help feel free to pm me.

1. Back Up your Stuff.
2. Wipe Data/ Factory Reset

Lol not many are willing to browse these threads.
Go grab the wind GB exe file from the dev section stock ruu file, put your phone into fastboot, relock the bootloader and run the file, once you're done flashing, update to ics, unlock the bootloader, flash a custom recovery then flash speed rom.

Been doing that for every question all day, you need to post all your questions in one thread and for every new question post it right in the old thread.
Yes, you can use Rom manager. I use it and I use clockwork recovery. I personally don't care for the other recoveries.

Here's a little tip about rom manager and flashing a recovery through it that many fail to realize until it's too late, lucky for me I got a heads up a while back when I was on the T989, once you flash a recovery via rom manager, you can only boot into that recovery using rom manager, therefore your phone has to boot to be able to use recovery, now, let's say you end up in a bootloop, how are YOU gonna get into recovery to fix your phone? Think about that, we don't have a CWM recovery.img at the moment for you to flash manually if you prefer CWM, but by all means, do as you please, we all have personal preferences and for someone that isn't s-off and isn't too comfortable with the ways of adb, etc as yet, I'd advise the simplest things for now.
Before 4ext was posted and I was on my g2 I used cwm(like everyone else). you were able to boot into recovery same as 4ext. Some had issues but I never did. Is something on this device preventing it from functioning like it did in g2?

Actually for me, once I flash cwm from rom manager, it stayed on my phone. Happened with my nexus 1,s, galaxy s2, and now this phone,..so I guess for some it sticks and others or may not. I say just try it and change if you want to
