SuperWipe Script
This script was created by mike1986 and he give me permission to port this from his Android Revolution HD ROMs.
So all credits to him and his team!
SuperWipe is used to clean your current phone partitions to make it ready for a brand new ROM version to be installed.
This script will erase and format your data, system, boot and cache partition.
Your SD card will remain untouched FAT32 and it's recommended to leave it like that.

DOWNLOAD for ICS
DOWNLOAD for JB
So before you flash any ROMs, flash the SuperWipe script in recovery. It will wipe out the partitions and reboot back into recovery.
Make sure you flash a ROM or else you can't boot up! (Unless you flash an RUU)
Thanks to navmad for testing. It works fine!

I just tried this script, but it won't work - error 1, operation aborted.... I flashed the zip in recovery.

@xpirt: I flashed the wrong SuperWipe (should have flashed JB) and now my SDCARD will not mount. Is there any way to reformat or superwipe the phone using fastboot? Any recommendation will earn a huge THUMP UP!
Maybe you accidentally wiped your sdcard? In that case, format it again.

what's the difference between this script and the normal full wipe that we make before flashing any ROM ?

This will erase also boot partition and you will need to reflash boot.img.

So this script will avoid use "adb erase boot" every time that we want to do a clean install?
But what's the difference between flash new boot.img over an older boot.img and erase boot partition before flashing?
I thought that it didn't matter if boot partition isn't wiped (unless boot.img is corrupt or something else).
EDIT: it doesn't work for me, superwipe doesn't work neither adb erase/format boot do. I think it has something related to S-ON devices, precisely on carriers' smarthpones, like mine, I think that Vodafone locks boot partition with S-ON for some part to store simlock or something...
I get error 1 ? When flash it ?
You sure you tried the right version? If you are on hboot 1.24 and lower, use the ICS version. If you are on hboot 1.25, use the JB version. Also, make sure you have the right recovery installed.
I think it can't touch boot partition, because it's locked on S-ONs, ian't that why we have to flash kernel manually through fastboot after flashing new rom?

I have fixed recovery for jb and 1.25 hboot.And I i try both versions for ics and jb.Aways Error (Status 1) or something
Why do you want to flash a wipe script. The wipe options in recovery are more than capable to handle such things.
And just flash whatever boot.img you want, it will overwrite the previous one without any issues.
Make your life easier.

I attempted to flash a custom rom and it didn't work. No my phone is stuck on the motorola screen. What do I need to do to get back to stock rom?
Can you please explain simply what did you do? Which rom or which steps did you followed? Just to clarify Things
You cannot flash a custom rom right from start. Did you flash a .sbf by chance?
I attempted to flash CM7 after unlocking and rooting. I have Clockwork mod installed. How do I flash an sbf file? I don't beleive I did that. AM I screwed then?
Ok, can you access to the recovery mode at least?

Wipe Data/Factory Reset
Wipe Cache
Just in case, download another ROM in case zip file is corrupt
Go to Mounts and storage -> mount USB storage
Copy the Custom ROM you've downloaded
Unmount then go back
Install zip from sdcard -> flash the rom you've downloaded
Then reboot and be patient... leave it like 5 minutes or so to see if anything happens.
oh, and one more thing... did the flashing finished with errors?

So all I am doing is wiping and reflashing? I have already done that with a different rom. I'm still stuck at the motorola screen.
Did you try restoring the nandroid backup you created after unlocking your bootloader and before flashing CM7?
There is information about getting back to stock on the "answers" post stickied in Q&A.

I never could get it to do a backup. So that won't work with getting me back to stock. I'll jsut try to flash one of those fruitcake things. Says its going to take an hour to download. IF that doesn't work, can you help guide me how to flash one in fastboot?
The fact that you couldn't get CWM to do a backup should have told you that recovery wasn't installed properly and you should have stopped there and asked for help. I saw your post over on Th3bill's AOKP thread, and since you saw the AT&T boot animation I'm guessing the ROM never installed.
How did you root and boot?
What happened when you tried to perform a backup?
What happened when you tried to flash the new ROM?
What is the current state of your device? You said you can access recovery, what happens now if you try to boot?
keep us posted pal, good luck!

I used automatic unlock. It unlocked and rooted my phone. I verified root access by installing superuser and and root checker. It said I was fully rooted
What happened when you tried to perform a backup?
I can't remember
What happened when you tried to flash the new ROM?
I flashed it, it said it installed successfully or something. I rebooted the phone. It never would go past the at&t loading screen. I pulled out the battery and restarted the phone, wouldn't go past the motorola screen that time. I tried reflashing the ROM and I'm still stuck at the motorola screen.
Oh and when I try to do anything in fastboot via command prompt, it keeps saying < waiting for device > and nothing ever happens.
Still waiting for the stock gingerbread fruitcake to finish downloading.

If I am not wrong, you can also use mega wipe (the script your mentioned I guess) with Odin and flash your ROM that way.
Simple Mounts and Storage.
Format cache system data sdcard preload = empty phone zero left .
Requires boot to download mode and flash rom.

Ahh but correct me if I'm wrong, wouldn't just flashing with Odin remove all the files and since the ROM I have downloaded i.e Omega Rom, would be in the .zip format right? But Odin only recoginses the .tar format. How do I go about it?

I think better to use odin if you want to flash stock rom, oherwise is suggest using custom recovery and delete system / data cache what you actually need. then flash the new rom from zip.

I suggest to revert back to stock samsung from ODIN, then put a custom recovery via odin, and from your custom recovery: delete system, cache, dalvik cache, userdata. Then flash omega and gapps if you need from sdcard.. I think people mostly doing the same.
If you go back to stock samsung, all teh modem version will be stock.
sorry if I dont have right. I did never tried Omega, but with aokp the same was working good to me.

Sorry I don't know about conversion between those two, but Im not sure if you really wipe "everything" you will have modem/radio drivers in omega. I think in aokp we don't have.. So I always have the last modem version that I used with stock samsung rom, no matters which another rom I using...

hi i have the cyanogenmod 10 build from july 1st 2013.
its installed with the clockwork mod
even put the patch in during clockwork mod
and the google apps during clockwork mod.
the biggest issue im having is that when i click the camera it says no external storage avaiable and to insert an sd card before using the camera.
i cant transfer any pictures to my phone or files.
if i plug the phone into my computer it says turn usb storage on and i try that but cant get into the phones files to fix what i need.
i also can do a mtp mode but it only shows whats on the micro sd card that is it.
i really want to use my phone but this issue is tough to fix.?
what can i do?
What version of cm are you running your title says 10.1 but your post says 10 which one is it? Did you read the op on the Rom. Mainly the what works and what doesn't? Not sure if that's the cm but extsd is broke on one of them I think.
I'm running cm10.1 20130701, unofficial. And my camera works. If this is the cm your on try a full wipe and reflash
I.e. wipe data
Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik
Then reflash

You didn't answer my question what sd card won't mount? And before you stay just doing things research your problem if 4ext went find sd you should have Googled that issue before you went back to cwm, jumping without knowing is what's going to Mess things up. So stop changing things and do some research.

What do you mean starting over and over. In the previous post you said it was working but couldn't mount sd. What happened to make it go from working to boot looping. Exactly what did you do? How far does it go before restarting? Is the recovery that's bootlooping or the Rom? I need way more info than your posting

What recovery finally worked for you? And if everything is running well make a backup before you start tweaking it that way if something goes wrong you can just restore your backup instead of having to stay over from scratch
Personally
I make a backup after a clean install then after I restore my apps then after mods then final. And I delete the post one when I have a working newer one. That way my sd isn't full of backups

This is a flashable Stock 14.1.B.1.510 Taiwan rom. It is Deodexed and rooted. Install it in CWM. You can use this as a base for your rom. No need to ask. Share it and modify it and lets start some custom roms.Download​

First unlock your bootloader then flash via fastboot this kernel. When booting press volume up and you are in recovery.

can i flash 475 HK ?
Will it wipe DATA and/or Internal Storage ?
I tried to flash, but the program said "waiting for device".
What does this mean, I don't have unlock bootloader? or I'm on 475?

yes you need to have unlocked bootloader ( make sure you backup TA before unlocking ) then flash this recovery and flash the rom in cwm.

it will wipe system only. just do a wipe fty reset, wipe cache and dalvik. i did /data too.. and flash the rom.
no need to wipe internal sdcard and the rom will not wipe internal data

Impossible.. I've flashed the rom a few times and it does not wipe data on sdcard.. Did you do it manually in recovery?

Cant mount system huh?
I believe you are getting this error because you are coming from stock. Update the phone to another rom like JellyBean 4.1 and then try to flash this then.
Still no go

if he's having a problem coming from stock, then its either or. attempted a flash from Slim Bean 4.2, having same issue...
try from stock again(odin-flashed+re-partitioned), flash cwm-fixed-for-cm7(odin-flashed, do NOT RE-PARTITION!), flash the kernel in the cm11 OP(it will boot into TWRP recovery; note DO NOT FLASH A TWRP-INJECTED ROM FOR TWRP TO APPLY ONLY THE RECOVERY, IT WILL CORRUPT /SYSTEM AND /DATA PARTITIONS AS IT WAS MOUNTING THEM BEFORE THE TWRP RECOVERY INJECTION REBOOT!!, THUS HAVING ERRORS WHEN FLASHING!! TO FIX RESTORE ANY WORKING TWRP BACKUP, OR USE ODIN TO START OVER!! ), (did over-killing CAPS LOCK make it look important enough to remember) XD, anyways...
when in TWRP flash the following(as all checked with a blue "x", incase u dont use TWRP much):
-data
-cache
-dalvik-cache
-system
flash the newest version in @Unjustified Dev 's thread for (unofficial) CM11(as its the rom u are currently having troubles with, and u had a glitched version where the update-binary was not signed all the way in his rom, as if u look at the difference in the binary from it and the newer rom version, it didnt transfer all the way), then the special GAPPS in one of the comments ON A SEPARATE FLASH!, or goto paranoid-android's forum and flash the newest Modular-mini 4.4 GAPPS AGAIN!! ON A SEPARATE FLASH!,, then any mods/add-ons u want(can be on same flash as GAPPS, along with any other additional zips, with the exclusion of data restoring ones like Titanium-Backup-made "update.zip", as that will only restore the system-apps at the moment as it requires data partition to be setup, e.g. first_boot=completed_successfully, then u can goto recovery and flash it for a quicker data recovery)
the only reason why i didn't tell u to make a backup is cause when u flashed the kernel to get the TWRP, its an incompatible kernel for stock, but if u are on a rom u like, make a backup for it first, then flash to stock for a cleaned-out partition, i always suggest making regular/routine backups(about every 3-7 days, or when trying a new rom/Rooted-or-flashed-mod)+(and routinely deleting/cleaning older ones, or ones u don't use), or at least update the titanium-backup-made "update.zip" for faster data recovery(DO NOT INCLUDE SYSTEM-APPS BUILT WITH THE ROM INSIDE THE ZIP, AS SOMETIMES IT WILL OVERLAP THE ROMS ZIP AND CAUSE SOME ERRORS, SAME WITH ITS DATA!!) (opps caps-lock of remembering again, where did that come from)
note: in case u(the OP, or others who see this comment) the key-combos(or requirements) for the following partition loading(s) are:
-(ANY)recovery = Volume_DOWN+Volume_UP+Power
-Download-Mode = Plugged into USB-Cable(From AC(Wall-Adapter), DC(Car-Port)(may or may-not work, as it only did for me literally twice since ive owned the phone XD), or Computer(USB-Port( duh )))+Vol_DOWN
-System= (any other combination, as long as POWER is pushed down for ~2-5 seconds (and other partition combinations are not pressed+held after the second "samsung" popup, and/or for two consecutive "samsung" popups or more in some cases)
ADB Commands for rebooting partitions arenon-adb-shell-based, as in shell there is ALOT more ways u could do it)
-System (method1)= adb reboot
-System (method2)= adb reboot system
-Recovery (method1) = adb reboot recovery
-Recovery (method2) = adb reboot-recovery
-Download = adb reboot download
-POWER_OFF = adb reboot -p
Glad if i could be any help with this mini-thread comment now that i see the length XD but i tried to be through and user-friendly as i could think XD if u have any other things wrong or needed to know, feel free to ask on here =)

im not trying to sound like a [email protected]$$, but if u look into the errors on the thing, like alot of systems it usually tends to load from top-to-bottom, and in that specific version build it was the update-binary not signed all the way in the transfer in sign-apk (notice the first error, "e:error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard", and without the binary even if the recovery is compiled right for the phone model(e.g. with the right partition labels for system, data, cache, etc, it wont be able to know for the specfic code to use it by without the binary that is unique for each individual phone(in the update-binary file), by my observations in the systems used anyways =S, cause i manages to fix that specfic zip later after downloading the newer version, just for testing of THAT error, and replaced the update-binary and re-signed and it worked =)

thanks for this, I spent longer than I should have before asking for help.
I have no problems flashing pre 4.4 roms, I am not a developer, and I am stuck
odined back to stock
flashed just the kernel
booted into twrp and then it gets messy
if I advanced wipe cache, dalvik, system data .......it fails
I can factory reset but any wipe after that fails
I know persistence is key, but ive been at this for a while and went back to stock like four times.........any insights?

after it fails the 1st time, can you reboot to TWRP? if you can, wipe davlik, reflash the rom.

yes, flashing the kernel is successful, but the wipe is not going well. when I advanced wipe either all four together or starting with the sysystem (one at a time) I get red letter failed.
thought maybe it had something to do with mounting so I tried a 16 gig class 10 chip instead of the 32 gig chip. no difference.
Im not giving up but am going to rtry ri go from stock to helly, to kit kat and see if that makes a difference.

-odin to stock (or GeeWiz odin from its thread) (dont forget to repartition)
-!!!!!!BOOT THE DEVICE ONCE!!! OR /system + Data PARTITIONS ARE NOT MADE!!!"
-(after that if odin'd from GeeWiz go in its recovery and convert partitions (labeled volumes) to efs not ext4)
-if odin'd to stock odin the cm4 fixed for cm7(no repartition), if odined from geewiz(and completed above step), goto next step from its recovery
-go in the recovery then flash the kernel (as u were in a cwm based recovery it will update to TWRP)
-When booted into TWRP do the ALL wipes (except SDCARD)
-Flash Rom ONLY IN THIS ZIP QUE!!! (NO GAPPS!)
-Flash Gapps+other .ZIP packages
-Reboot /system and watch the first boot =)
Sorry i wasnt as clear, but sometimes its faster with the GeeWiz odin since it is already 4.2.2 + comes with boot.img + bootloader from Gingerbread/ISC/JB (as its the same), it only seems to take longer from the convert partitions (rfs) step, buts its easier in the long run =)
I have a spare fassy and just successfully flashed 11.1. Heres what I did.
Odin back to stock.
Flashed sc_milestone2_full
Flashed hellybean 4.2.2
Flashed TWRP then turned my phone off
Turned phone on and booted to recovery (TWRP at this point)
Flaahed 11.1 without doing any type of wipe.

man.....I feel like a moron and I have to be doing something wrong. I can follow directions and my wife says im a good listener. but this is kicking my butt!! I appreciate the help and feel like im bothering asking for hand holding- so I really appreciate your patience.
going ge whiz route..........
after converting to rfs and flashing the kernel from cm11 it boots into TWRP and here in my problems begin.
"-When booted into TWRP do the ALL wipes (except SDCARD)"
if I factory reset all other wipes fail
if I advance wipe first either all four fail or one at a time each fail.
its embarrassing to ask how do I wipe my device, so at least I am glad this is the trouble shooting thread. lol
and thans for the sc_milestone advice, but I don't have that file otherwise I would go that route since you tried it and it works. I searched for milestone but did not find a file named the one you used.
The sc milestone he mentioned is probably the Superclean rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1350621

coming from stock, ge whiz (rfs converted) or milestone I am receiving status 7, status 0 or get prop errors in recovery trying to flash anything other than the cm11 kernel
I thought it might be an error in reading sd card error so I changed it once, but it flashes the milestone from the sd card so I am not sure what is going on
did you flash a flash a jelly bean rom before flashing CM 11.1? are you trying to flash the 6 Dec 11.1? I had problems with prior versions also.

sorry, I didn't see the second question.
yes, 12.6 is the cm 11 build
- First time flashing CM-11.0 to your Galaxy S (or coming from another ROM)?1. Download Rom , Gapps and zip from the below step to sdcard.
2.Reboot into Recovery using 3-button-combo
3.Flash 4.4 kernel zip to gain twrp http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23212708291679682 flash through recovery
4.Reboot recovery and you will now be in twrp
5.Select WIPE: go to advanced (wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache + dalvik cache partition)
6.Install the ROM then install Gapps don't install them simultaneously
my problems begin in step 5
I didn't do the wipe in your step 5. I just flashed the rom.
which jelly bean rom? try helly bean below

Ill try just about anything at this point. Ive been using the helly 20131024, but ill try that one.
this is getting real curious. I do so enjoy pushing these older phones to their limit- this will all be worth it WHEN it works I am sure.

i highlighted the problem in alot of stars( *** ) once u are in TWRP from kernel flash u dont reboot to recovery again, that is whats causeing your errors, i tried to word it as "when u reboot into recovery" as-in when it boots up from kernel flash
try it once moire and it might work better, as when u do that the only partition it thinks u have is the kernel (boot.img, or /boot), thus /syste/ and /data arent being read to flash
as for the status 7, it might be cause the assert (getprop) on the top of the updater-script inside the zip under
META-INF>com>google>android>updater-script
edit it in NOTEPAD++!! and then put back in (without compression to solve some read-errors that could happen sometimes, but compression does make zip work, but sometimes uncompressed works faster for personal use),
then ill attach a zip for u to extract to your desktop, its a program called SignApk (notice its used to sign android zips), u will need to do this EVERY TIME u edit a flashable zip for it to flash right, to use it just extract it all into the same folder, make sure u have java (jre6+, and maybee jdk1.6.0_**+), then drag+drop the zip onto the DragApk.bat program and it will flash it with the same name with an added _signed before the zip, if u put it where your %path% system variable is u can go on command prompt and just type "signapk (zip name u edited) (zip name u want, that has to be different then the edited zip name or u get an empty zip for both)" u can leave out the second zip name and it will just do same name with a "_signed" before the extention, hope this helps =)
