NAND: Clean,Stock,Odex,Root/Busybox(TWRP only) - HTC Droid DNA

I have a clean NAND(backup) for those of you with a borked flash or that failed to create your own. This NAND is the clean stock ODEX rom with supersu binaries and busybox, it also contains superuser app and quickboot! Market FC's just sideload the apk. Everything else is fine!
I am posting the link but I'm a free DropBox user and I dont want my DropBox to be suspended.
If someone would like to create a mirror that I can throw in the OP that would be appreciated by both me and your peers!
Happy flashing folks!
Clean NAND(TWRP)http://

P.S. as of right ...empt to flash again till it takes. Good luck!

Since those affected by this problem will not be able to flash this cwm zip, note that you can extract the update.zip out of the /sdcard/ directory in the cwm zip. Replacing that may work out...

i just started from DL09 and worked it back up to blackhole 4.1
works just fine now.
Take the fixed CWM update.zip from the above post. Drop a copy on your sd card. Copy it into the clockworkmod folder and rename the copy recovery-update.zip. Will work on both ends then.

[GUIDE]How to extract Stock firmwares from Samsung?

And,comes another guide from me.... I was actually extracting a stock firmware and this came into my mind
Ok,I made this guide since the process of extracting firmware is a bit confusing sometimes.So,lets start with it​
What you would need:
1.7zip or any other zip utility
2.Stock Firmware
3.MagicISO
4.Nothing else
Tutorial:
1.Start off by downloading a stock firmware,for this guide,we assume its DDKQ8
2.You will get 2 files, S5830DDKQ8_<bla bla>.tar.md5 and SS_DL.dll
3.Ignore the second file,we only need the first file which has an extension of .md5
4.Now its not possible to extract the file with the current extension.
5.So,rename the file S5830DDKQ8_<bla bla>.tar.md5 to S5830DDKQ8_<bla bla>.tar
6.Now,the file is extractable,so extract it.
7.You will get approx. 9 files: arm11 boot,amss,csc.rfs and various others.
8.Delete all the files except boot.img and system.rfs.These are the only files we need.
9.Now,using MagicISO,open up system.rfs and extract it.
10.Make a new folder named Rom_working
11.Now,move the boot.img there
12.Make a folder called system
13.Move all contents of system.rfs to this this folder.
14.Now all you need is a META-INF folder to complete the rom.(Unless you messed up)
Thats it! Pretty easy huh,this is something really basic,but a few people get confused on extracting it anyway.Its just meant to be a basic guides for those people.If you want to get more info on making a rom,refer this guide which i wrote a few months ago.Hope this helped you guys out.
NOTE: I am not responsible if you mess up your phone or w/e happens to it.Btw,<bla bla> stands for the rest of the filename ​
thanks for that,, i was woundering how it was done,, i ended up using a nandroid backup with kitchen to make my own lol

Need help updating/flashing new ROM

My buddy rooted my phone last year and flashed cyanogenmod 7.1.1. My bluetooth piece will not connect to my phone and I'm thinking I need to flash a new rom.
I have no idea how to do this. I tried to read up on stuff like adb and sdk.
I could really use some serious guidance on how to update my rom.
I'm running Android 2.3.7 with Cyanogenmod 7.1.1.
Can I install any type of mod, now? Like Sense?
I hope I am posting this in the proper place.
Thank you
This needs to be moved to q and a. Anyhow, you can now flash other roms. There is a guide posted somewhere im sure. Just google thunderbolt Rom flashing guide or something like that.

How do I move this to Q and A?
And I can run any other type of ROM? Would I have to re-download rom manager and all that? I've been reading up on titanium backup. So I really just download the file to my SD card then delete data/dalvik then reboot to recovery and install new rom there? There redownload titanium and do a restore?

Thank you much. I will read, then re-read this, then ask any questions I may have.
Have a great Monday!
What I really need is the ability to use my blue tooth headsest. Do I have to flash a whole new ROM for this? Or should I flash a radio?
I've been reading up on flashing a new rom but am still confused. Do I need to flash the rom THEN flash an RUU (radio?). How about kernels?
I'm worried that I would have issues with the small things...like clearing/formatting my data/dalvik.
Also, how do I add my Radio/RUU to the "Root" of my SD card?
And can anyone clarify how to verify M5sum? I have a program downloaded for it, but don't know how to use it.
First off radios and ruus are two different things. The radio does need to be on the root of the sd card to be flashed. It doesn't really matter if you flash the radio before or after because that won't change between flashes. I find the best way to do it is just download the radio using the phone. Browse with a root file explorer like es file explorer to the download folder, rename the file to PG05IMG.zip, copy, paste it one folder back (that's the root directory). After you flash it in the bootloader browse to the file and rename it.

Download a 2.3.6 rom flashable zip file. Open it and go to system/app extract the file and copy it to your phone. Install it and your done.
If you want to install a system app then you need to be rooted. So i thought you already had a flashable zip file.
I got my firmware downloaded only. It is md5.tar file. Is this what you are talking about or should I download something else?

Is the apk file still in system/app? If not just place it there and wipe the caches. Without flashing a file.

[Tutorial] How to mod files for Safestrap Alpha

I was just gonna make this little tutorial to take some work off of The actual Dev for the Project(Beastmode) thanks again for your work brother
In his newest alpha release of safe strap we're able to replace the stock rom slot with a 4.3 Touchwiz ROM, I have seen people report that they have flashed certain roms without having to do any modification, but this is a safety precaution.
First you will need your rom of choice, in this tutorial I'm using N3BULA.
Download the rom and extract the contents to a folder on your pc or phone, PC is much easier, but you can edit on your phone as well
The files you need to edit are under META-INF/COM/GOOGLE/ANDROID that's actually the only files
Im using his modified files from the dev thread for comparison.
First we'll open the Aroma-Config
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2650078&stc=1&d=1395786107
Pardon the crude screen shot method but this will show you the changes and where they are.
Modified is on the left and Stock that came with the rom is on the right. Make the Changes and save
Next is Updater-Script
Same crude method of screen shot
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2650086&stc=1&d=1395786357
you can see where the two differ, so just edit that out as well.
Left is modified, Right is stock
Save Changes
Edit 3/26 you can also delete boot.img in zip
Make sure these files are on external sd card as well as the rom, boot into recovery, always make a nandroid backup, wipe and flash.\
This is the first time I have made a tutorial, so if its rough around the edges please excuse my forum newbness
if I missed anything definitely feel free to add, and once again A HUGE THANK YOU BEASTMODE.
Hopefully in a few hours or days these edits wont be needed.
how do we go about putting them into the rom zip file?
You edit them in the rom zip file... extract the rom and it moves as a zip, my case was it downloaded to storage sdcard (internal). I extracted it to ext sdcard and then went in and edited it. It still remains a zip
Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk
Easy way is to use 7 zip. Extract the ROM and make the changes. Now right click on original ROM and select open archive. From there u can place the modded files. Now the ROM.zip is still flashable.
Sent from my LG-VS980 using xda app-developers app
of course as soon as i posted it, i figured it out, unfortunately i can't get alliance to work afterwards, it installs but doesn't boot
I'm using alliance atm on safestrap. Don't mod anything. Just choose the stock kernel when you get to that point in the installer.
So glad to see you post that.!!! Been talking to a guy about it for about 2 hrs about it now, I actually told him it should work as long as agni wasn't chosen, thanks for clarification

After you deleted the boot.img there is no point in editing the rest. I used 7zip to unzip and rezip and have not had any problems yet. Winrar might be causing problems for all i know as i never use it. I'm not around my pc for the most part atm but i haven't had any problems flashing 4 or 5 roms with just deleting the boot.img.

I ended up fixing it. I tried doing it through winrar and from root explorer on my phone. The way I got it to work was actually downloading the aroma-config file and uodater-script file from the development thread that beast mode provided and changed those.

Excellent. Thank you!!!
Sorry for the dumb question but what do I do if the rom of choice isn't showing up on the root of my extSD?
EDIT:
Nevermind, to anyone who saw my last post(s), I'm an idiot .
Ran through Odin, re-rooted, re-installed Safestrap, now installing N3bula Rom.
Hope all goes well. And sorry for any inconvenience!
Hope my donation helped out some Beastmode!
