READ CAREFULLY
Ok people are having issues with the original thread which can be found HERE the thread is just so cluttered, and instead of it being cleaned I'll just make a new one for people with the correct information so its not as cluttered. I have been running this rom now for little over 4 days no issues following the help of JRunRun and njdan30 ( So give them thanks )
I can confirm SMS/MMS/BT/GPS all work with no issues ( or with Fixes )
This is JRunRun's installation information that allows the ROM to work flawlessly and worked for me with minor tweaks ( I always try the path of least resistance first before taking the hard way )
TWRP 2.8.7.0 seems to work without issues.
EASY WAY ( TRY FIRST BEFORE YOU TRY THE MANUAL MANIPULATION OF FILES )
1. downloaded - ROM 3.3 DarkLord S7E APEK
2. downloaded - SLIM_APNs SLIM_APNs
3. downloaded - SU SuperSU 2.74
4. placed ROM and APN.zip and Supersu on my external sdcard
5. booted recovery (twrp 2.7.8.0), (I used 3.0.2 )
6. WIPE - Dalivk/Cache/System/Data (Then for good measure I factory reset)
7. Install -- loaded flashable zips from external sd to install
a. ROM 3.3 --> add more zips
b. Slim APN zip
c. Supersu --> started the flash
8. Flashed ROM --> chose sprint phone version, chose "SPR" as my csc in Aroma, DID NOT reboot on finish ( This is where people may be getting confused..)
Select SPRINT MODEL N9xxx then select SPR as the Sales Code ALSO there is another option that is showed here that DID give me issues there is 3 of them. 2 of them are WIPE options the 3rd is NO WIPE keep settings and app data I choose the 3rd option cause I noticed when I tried the first 2 my SMS would not work, and my WIFI would constantly diconnect
9. Allowed twrp to finish installing flashable apn and supersu zips
10. wiped cache/dalvik, reboot to system (10-20 min reboot).
8. Did not restore anything on system setup. Entered wi-fi info but turned it off afterwards. ( I just skipped this all together until the phone was completely ready to go )
Once loaded you will pick your language, and a option will show up wanting you to consent to sending usage data, uncheck mark that and continue setup
11. Loaded new kernel -- darkera 1.9 lte vzw (doubt this step is necessary but easy to find with a google search samsungvn) ( If you need the kernel link you can ask for it here and we will send it too you in a PM ) ( I am running the SPRINT kernel which seems to be very stable )

MANUAL FIX FOR SMS/MMS
1. Backed up stock OF1 apns-conf.xml to computer
2. downloaded - ROM 3.3 DarkLord S7E APEK
downloaded - SLIM_APNs SLIM_APNs
downloaded - SU SuperSU 2.74
3. Replaced apns-conf.xml file in SLIM_APNs.zip with the stock apns-conf.xml file saved in step 1, rezipped and saved with new zip name "stock_APNs_modded.zip" Some people are just flashing the slim apn without adjusting it and having succes.
4. placed ROM and APN.zip and Supersu on my external sdcard
5. booted recovery (twrp 2.7.8.0)
6. WIPE - Dalivk/Cache/System/Data [/COLOR] (Then for good measure I factory reset)
7. Install -- loaded flashable zips from external sd to install
a. ROM 3.3 --> add more zips
b. modded Slim APN zip
c. Supersu --> started the flash
5. Flashed ROM --> chose sprint phone version, chose "SPR" as my csc in Aroma DID NOT reboot on finish ( This is where people may be getting confused..)

Once loaded you will pick your language, and a option will show up wanting you to consent to sending usage data, uncheck mark that and continue setup
9. change /efs/imei/mps_code to "vzw" via ES File app <-- vzw must be lower case
10. build prop changes:
Code:
ro.product.name “cm_hltevzw”
ro.product.device “hltevzw”
telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice="1"
ro.telephony.default_network="8"
Added the following lines after the ro.telephony.default_network line:
Code:
ro.cdma.home.operator.numeric=311480
ro.cdma.home.operator.alpha="Verizon Wireless”
ro.cdma.homesystem=64, 65, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83
gsm.sim.operator.numeric=311480
gsm.operator.numeric=311480
gsm.sim.operator.alpha=Verizon
gsm.operator.alpha=Verizon
ro.net.apnwhitelist=fota,ims,supl,verizon,cbs,mms
ro.net.apnroamingwhitelist=ims
ro.net.apnpolicywhitelist=fota,ims,verizon,verizon 800
ro.net.apnroamingblacklist=fota,verizon800
11. used Galaxy Tools to make sure mps_code and sales_code is set to "vzw"
12. Loaded new kernel -- darkera 1.9 lte vzw (doubt this step is necessary but easy to find with a google search samsungvn) ( If you need the kernel link you can ask for it here and we will send it too you in a PM ) ( I am running the SPRINT kernel which seems to be very stable )
Again thanks to JRunRun and njdan30 for all the helpful information and always trying to give helping hand to those that need it! and those that want to learn!! :highfive::highfive:

Honestly I do not have a answer to that, since I was already OF1 when I unlocked the bootloader. You can always try and let people know here, I was not the creator of this ROM I was just making a new thread for people who were having issues, due to the original thread being so cluttered with 5 billion different, ways to make it work..
As far as the files go I am currently uploading to google drive to share. I should have everything ready in a few more hours, and will post links
Links fixed at the moment, looking for other hosts for mirrors

In loading this rom everything will change but the modem. I'm still using OF1 modem for example and have a totally functioning rom. That being said, yes I would upgrade and flash a new OF1 rom clean before doing the install. This rom takes quite a bit too get working but when you get use to it, it's no big deal. I wish folks good luck on following the instructions. They did not include any apn settings which I needed to get it going but what do I know.
Hello I am a bit confused with the rom 3.3 ---> add more zips did you mean you installed the rom then installed slim zip then you reinstalled the rom again?

Add Zips means in TWRP you select the ROM, then select ADD more ZIPS which in turn you add 3.3 SLIM_APN, and SU then flash..
and no I didn't modify anything, my install method is highlighted in RED.

Then you probably didn't uncheck mark the, "send data" option while setting up your phone... and if you used my way in red ( I didn't have to use the FULL how to ) then you shouldn't have to edit the APN at all, you just flash the rom APN and SU that's all you have to do.
ONLY use the full installation if the easy way doesn't work...
The pics I just uploaded will kinda help, in TWRP. make sure you ADD all 3 files ROM - SLIM APN - SU then you start the flash
2nd pic is install of rom, you choose what is circled, I didn't get one of the next screen but you scroll down till you find the code "SPR"
Next pic again the option needed here is whats circled.
4th pic, MAKE sure you leave this ALONE don't select it, just finish out of it, and it will take you back to TWRP and the flash/install of SLIMS APN and SU will begin once those are done reboot
Can't mount extsd.
Nvm. I figured it out.

Can someone send me the kernel by PM? Thanks
i was able to get the rom up and running but noticed i am unable to access the internal sd or external sd through my phone. I am also unable to boot to twrp.
which means I cannot flash the kernel that allows access to the sd card.
I tried reinstalling twrp through odin, it was supposedly successful but just get pushed back into system when booting to recovery.
any help would be appreciated
thanks,
Edit: was able to access twrp through restart option instead of shutting off and using hardware button combo
MMS
I just got this installed and all seems working fine. Except MMS. Im sure Im just missing something. When I send an mms messgae, it fails and says invalid address entered. What gives?
could someone send me the link to the darkera 1.9 lte vzw kernel please
I made the mistake of changing the Access Point Names without copying them first. Would someone be as so kind to list the correct settings, that has everything working. Thanks

NOTE:
This will be my last GB rom since sources for Galaxy S Advance has been released, I'll by making a JellyBean port of the SGSA to the Ace 2. Unless Sammy releases JB to our phone. I'm also going to buy Galaxy S Advance or the Galaxy S III mini(not available yet here in HK execpt the parallel ones and in expansys.com.hk) to replace my Ace 2.
Introduction:
First of all, I made this ROM specifically for the Galaxy Ace 2 GT-I8160 with a baseband of ZSLG1/ZSLK2 which is from Hong Kong.
The reason I made this ROM started with a severe scrolling problem with all Galaxy Ace 2 here in Hong Kong installed with the I8160ZSLG1 firmware, scrolling continuously is not possible because as soon as you scroll while the menu list is still moving or scrolling, touchscreen becomes unresponsive, unless you re touch the screen. this ROM has no BusyBox installed, its just a stock ROM with same UI, same funtionality
UPDATE V3:
Sorry for the late responses. I've been busy working here in my company. Anyway, this will be my last GB rom since sources for Galaxy S Advance has been released, I'll by making a JellyBean port of the SGSA to the Ace 2.
Original Stock ROM I8160ZSLK2(Hong Kong)
GT-I8160V3

-permanent removal of CPU rendering, uses GPU rendering by default.
-init.d support
--place your favorite init.d tweaks inside /system/etc/init.d
-busybox 1.19.4/ZipAlign/Sqlite3(compatible with the newest Supercharger V6)
-deleted some unneeded files from lib folder.
Recent Changes
-all language files are for UK, so there's no chinese, but if you know english, that would be fine
-multi tap alphanumeric keypad bug fixed
-scrolling bug fixed
-STOCK UI(Same functions, same look and feel)
-Zipaligned APK's before packing
-Deodexed
-Rooted
-disabled ScrollingCache for smooth scrolling(modified framework.jar, not a build.prop tweak)
-disabled all camera sounds including autofocus
-Samsung bloatwares REMOVED
NOTE:
It is recommended to flash the kernel from the link provided above.
Installing instructions:
-make a backup of your phone
-flash the stock ZSLK2 firmware

-wipe dalvik cache
-wipe battery stats
-unmount all volumes
-flash the ZIP file and wait it to finish
-reboot(startup takes long time since dalvik is being rebuild)
-when booting is done, setup your phone, language, time, etc.
-before installing apps, reboot phone
-then you can start installing your apps
NOTE:
-Kies over Wifi is removed, clicking on it from the menu will force close the settings application.
-Don't attempt to flash this ROM to a different baseband, your phone will still work but you will not have a GSM/3G/Network signal.
WARNING APPLIES ONLY TO V1 and V2:
WARNING: BusyBox is partially supported using the busybox installer, however, there are many chances that it will make your device bootloop.

sorry, dumb question again.
in cwm menu, i don't see option to unmount volume, so how could i do that??
edit: found it in "mount and storage", sorry.
Everything seems running just fine, but the battery graph seems broken (gaps in between) in battery status??
---------- Post added at 11:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:14 PM ----------
and the chinese character in your rom is simplied chinese (GB) while i use tradional chinese (BIG5).
Could you list the files responsible for those tradional chinese chars and i put it back to system via sort of root explorer??
Thank you.
How do we flash the stock rom back ? Do i need to wipe cache again and stuff?
And what do i choose in odin? cuz the file is just one.. and it asks for bootloader and etc?

The stock rom provided here is for flashing with odin (select "pda" in odin, and select the .tar file)
I'm not sure if it is needed for odin, but if you flash rom with clockwork mod, then wipe /data, /system, and /cache is a must. just as the instruction stated, wipe these 3 partitions, then format it and umount them.

In odin, select pda and then select the .tar file you downloaded. DO NOT touch anything else. then click start.

doesn't seem to have the battery problem on me though, take a look at the screenshot, for the languages, sorry I think its from the CSC files, you can try flashing a CSC provided on my original ROM, but I don't know what effect does it have when flashed, I didn't add any language since I don't read chinese, thou I live here in Hong Kong
anyway, I'll try extracting the language traditional chinese and will make a CWM flashable file.
Anyway, the reason why I have low battery life is I use
CPU Governor: performance(only at 800Mhz - no deep sleep, no downclock, CPU always at 800Mhz full speed)
I/O Scheduler: noop
results? no lags in UI or browser. but battery last only 1 day, than 2days using default CPU settings.

Yea, i think the gap is actually the period of hard reboot, so its a false alarm The graph is ok without reboot.
regarding cwm flashable langauge file, i dont need to wipe data/ factory reset for that i assume?
Thank you.

no need to wipe, just flash the CWM zip file, the caller ID is a feature of the Indonesian firmware, so we either have to edit some framework or apk's which will take sometime

App Downloading Problem
Hi
Great rom. Quite stable and scrolling works properly now as advertised (I actually thought the broken scrolling was an intentional design and not a bug, but its back to normal now thanks to the rom)
I do have 3 questions / problems though.
1. Not sure if anyone else has this problem, but after flashing, I am unable to install any apps from the google market when on wifi. I can browse the market and websites easily, but the downloading bar never initiates. Once I switch to 3g, the app starts downloading. Before I flashed this rom, wifi downloading of apps from google play worked on the same network.
2. When I enter recovery mode (volume up + home + power) my recovery mode is "Android Recovery 3e" not CWM recovery. As such, I only have the options to flash a .zip or wipe data / cache. Is this normal. I tried flashing Antsm's update_su and it remains android recovery.
3. This is minor. But when I try and use LMT launcher (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1330150) with the pie buttons, only the home button works. The other buttons do not. They worked fine before I flashed this mod. Not sure if anyone else has tried LMT with this rom?
4. Will kernels or roms based off of other firmwares work with our HK baseband and still have working scrolling on 3g/phone?
Thx alot for your support for the HK firmware

ANSWERS:
To 1: I to, experiences that problem, still fixing it
To 2: You didn't flash the kernel properly, try flashing a custom kernel again.
To 3: Don't know what launcher is that.
To 4: Yes it will, we only need to copy a some specific files for 3G/GSM/Network to work.

In that case, I'll wait for that wifi fix. Will keep using the this rom in the meantime.
I'll wry about cwm next time I need to flash.
And the launcher problem started working but itself. Don't think it's a rom problem. Thx again!

If/until Fuhu releases source code, I don't think it is very plausible to try to port this tablet to JB.
Nice Job installed fine
now that Deodexing was done ... it gets rid of that pesky "android is upgrading message.

Prerequisites:
1.Have TWRP Recover installed
To install:
1. Download and copy mt799_unsigned_121512_160603.zip to your tablet

Just install it like you did the custom ROM without the factory reset.
I hope this works for every1, I will be trying to make a more custom ROM.

I am not able to reproduce this issue, try wiping your cache and dalvik cache. Also, make sure your time is set correctly.
just wondering
this isn't a big thing but i noticed ProductionTest4791.apk is not in the system folder ?
this is the file that you could use to do a few test on the nabi
Settings /about tab/ Product version/<- keep tapping to start it

found my fix. i did wipe the cache and dalvik but i was doing that every time. this time i did your rom and started it up with the wifi off and skipped every thing with the google setup then when i got to the desktop i restarted and and cleared the cache and dalvik and then installed the kids stuff. restarted and kept the wifi off and did all the nabi stuff. when i could get to the desktop i started up play store and let it turn on wifi and do its thing and it all worked. then went into kids mode and it said tht their was a user with my email allready so it came up the the sigh up or sigh in screen. i have an account so i sighed in and finished the nabi stuff. then went back to play store and it still is working. hope this helps if anyone else has my problem. hey thanks again for the rom. if it wasn't for you i would have just thrown $200 bucks out the window

I will be starting this ROM from scratch this weekend (hopefully addressing the issues it has), it will not take nearly as long now since I know the steps to do it. I will be building one complete stripped ROM and one complete stock ROM (except without the OTA updater because I think it may conflict with the OTA updater if an update happens because of the De-Odexed apps). I will also be on Christmas break so I will have plenty of time to work on this.
But I am still not able to duplicate your issue with the play store... the only thing force closing on me is the GMail app, maybe you should try installing the gapps on THIS page

That's AWESOME! I'm really looking forward to it. Do you have a way to test if leaving the OTA updater active is acceptable? It would be nice to use the VooDoo OTA RootKeeper app to maintain root and still get OTA updates.

LG Update Center Force Closes when trying to update LG Apps
FIX:
Method 1:
Use Flashable zip to toggle between EU and US build.prop
It will detect what build.prop you currently have and swap it.
Note: If you have made any other changes to your build.prop, they will be lost using this. Use the other manual method instead.
Download and Flash LG-V500_KOT49I.V50018a_buildprop-toggle.zip in TWRP Recovery
Reboot
Update All LG Apps in LG Update Center
Flash the same LG-V500_KOT49I.V50018a_buildprop-toggle.zip in Recovery again to revert to US
Reboot
Method 2:
Using Root Explorer or BuildProp Editor from Play Store, change the following properties:
Code:
ro.product.locale.region=EU
ro.build.target_country=CIS
ro.build.target_region=EU
Reboot
Update All LG Apps in LG Update Center
Using Root Explorer or BuildProp Editor from Play Store, change the following entries back:
Code:
ro.product.locale.region=US
ro.build.target_country=NA
ro.build.target_region=NA

Just noticed LG Update Center force closes.. Weird because it updated a few apps first, now it refuses to open.
Doesn't seem to affect any of the LG apps though... they are running just fine.
If i'm not the only one seeing this behavior I'll add it to the list of Known Issues and try and find a fix.

OK.. figured this out.. looks like changing the region settings in build.prop breaks the updater..
I used the original unmodified EU build.prop and was able to update all the apps.. then I just switched back to the US build.prop from my zip and all is good. :good:

Feels a lot smoother, new Kitkat features etc... LG upped the brightness much brighter now at %75 than it was at %90 . Gamma also seems to have been corrected. Some users reported better batter life.

Is it just me or Wifi isn't working on this build. I'm literally less 2 feet away from my router and wifi shows full signal yet nothing is loading. I can't even access the market. Turned airplane on and off a few times, rebooted my device, still no internet service
This is the first of many guides I will be posting and keeping up with.
It will be utilized for Q&A FAQ and HOW TO so we can keep the development thread for development purposes.
Post your questions and Myself or other knowledgeable users of Sac23 ROMS will answer as quickly as possible.
So ......
FAQ:
what do i do if its not booting on start up A- pull battery then restart.(IF YOU HAVE A REMOVABLE BATTERY)
after booting im getting a services have stopped wait or close A- pull the battery and restart.(IF YOU HAVE A REMOVABLE BATTERY)
the tweaks open then close help? A- need to deny super user for it then go in and change what u want then re enable superuser for it
how to install
install like u would any rom then wait for 2 min ( if wont boot )
pull battery and restart then you'll see optimizing apk's count down.(IF YOU HAVE A REMOVABLE BATTERY)
***Guys This Is A Port So remember it will have small glitches here and there but all in all should be stable ***
For starters HOW TO INSTALL a ROM by SAC23
Installing with TWRP (View All Supported Devices>>> Find TWRP for your device):
Philz can be used and I will post instructions for it later https://www.mediafire.com/folder/qc3z1c59s8g03/PHILZ
This assumes that you ALREADY have TWRP Recovery installed on your phone and you know how to use it.
Download the ROM of choice...move it onto the EXT SD CARD.
VERY IMPORTANT>>> Move all music, pics, important data from internal storage to the ext SD card and/or to your pc, etc. because during this process, the internal will be completely erased.
Recommended Method to Flash SACS Custom ROMS using TWRP
Boot into TWRP
Select Wipe > Advanced Wipe
Select Dalvik, System, Data, Internal Storage, and Cache. Swipe to Wipe (do this THREE TIMES)
Go back to previous Advanced Wipe screen.
Select Format Data, Type YES, Press GO. (do this THREE TIMES)
Go back to previous Advanced Wipe screen.
Swipe to Factory Reset. (do this THREE TIMES)
Go back to MAIN menu and STOP HERE !!!!! READ NEXT STEP CAREFULLY....
[*]Select REBOOT INTO RECOVERY mode and Swipe to Install Super User. DO NOT REBOOT INTO SYSTEM!
[*]AFTER THE PHONE REBOOTS INTO RECOVERY:
NOW proceed with installing The ROM
Select Install Zip, Drill down to Sac23's Rom you want to flash, and Swipe to install.
Follow on screen instructions (if there are any).
When prompted, REBOOT SYSTEM.
THE FIRST BOOT WILL TAKE A MINIMUM OF 20 MINUTES..... SOME DEVICES EVEN LONGER...
.
.
HAVE PATIENCE
When the Home Screen appears and it is obvious that the install has completed, allow the phone to settle for another 10 minutes BEFORE you begin setting up your personal preferences and accounts.
If everything seems normal, set your phone up and profit.
IF IT WON'T BOOT....(IF YOU HAVE A REMOVABLE BATTERY)...try pulling battery and replacing battery then restart phone and you should see "Android Updating"
After setting up your personal info and you are now ready, the first thing you should always do after flashing any ROM is to go to settings, system updates, and refresh/update your PRL & PROFILE then reboot the phone. Second thing is go to settings, more networks, mobile networks, network mode, and select LTE/CDMA.

This is a prerooted stock ROM of the OK2 update. It also has the sd card fix patch applied.
This ROM requires installing a custom recovery on your device, which will trip Knox.
All operations are done at your own risk
I would advise against flashing the EFS partition unless you know yours is corrupted (i don't think many people have that issue). The Boot, System, and Modem partitions all need to be flashed though.
If installing over Kitkat, a factory reset will most likely be required as lollipop installs apps differently. Also be prepared to lose all files on internal memory.
I would recommend backing up your OS before flashing. Also it wouldn't hurt to backup app data to make reinstalling apps easier.
Here's the thread for twrp:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-sprint/general/how-to-root-note-3-lollipop-t3089382
To install the ROM, extract the 7zip file to "/ExtSdCard/twrp/backups/{serial number}/"
using your favorite software (I made the file with ES File Explorer on Android).
Enter recovery mode (Volume up + Home button while poering on), and select "Restore" from the list of options.
There is a option to select internal or external storage to Restore from.
Select the OK2 stock rooted backup file. (Un)Check the appropriate boxes.
Restore the image to install the new OS
Here's the ROM
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2iEgzRTFjrQdzNBa29DMTBsZHc/view?usp=docslist_api
I don't suppose you have another link? It fails to download every time I try.*Edit* I didn't have drive installed just flashed cm nightly forgot to install it :silly: thanks. And keep up the good work!
Not right now. I know youl'll receive two or three different errors, but you gotta click "continue" or "download" or "download anyway" to get the file. If it continues to be a problem, I can setup a torrent server for it when i get home tonight.
It might also help to download to a pc, or on a Wi-Fi connection. I've had issues with downloads failing to complete using my phone with big files.

I do not know if there's a way to do so with to do so with TouchWiz, since I haven't used it since before the Kitkat update.

I do not know. I use a third-party app for my hotspot. If you have hotspot services with your provider, the native one should work, but I have not tested that theory.
If you're not signed up for hotspot services, check here:

or the "Wi-Fi Tether Router" app on the play store works very well for me (since this is a rooted ROM):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.snclab.wifitetherrouter&hl=en
Just have to remember with that app to turn the device's Wi-Fi on before activating the hotspot.
Is anyone else having wifi calling issues with this rom? At first I got the error 16 switch message when trying calls of any kind off wifi, but wifi calling worked. Then I called sprint and they worked their magic to correct the error 16 message but I've had wifi calling issues ever since. Calls start and immediately drop on wifi calling.

I personally never had that problem. But I did notice if I tried to download a big file, or other devices on the network were using a LOT of data, the Wi-Fi calling would disconnect. Sometimes using the Bluetooth could cause problems since it uses the same antenna as the Wi-Fi... But I only had issues with that when transferring data with one or the other.
Yep, I know it can be picky, I have used it for years. This is the first time is disconnects immediately on every wifi call. Nothing has changed on my network. Comcast 75mbps, wireless AC router. It started with this rom, which by the way I love otherwise.

If you have successfully unzipped the file while the device is in normal operation. Then after you have booted into recovery mode (twrp) you should be able to locate the unzipped file with twrp. If it doesn't flash (Install) then something else is wrong. Is your phone already rooted ? If so what OS are you running now ? If not, You may want to root with supersu first. Do you have an SD Card installed in your device? If so, using a root file manager app like Root Explorer copy and paste the unzipped OK2 OS file to the Sd Card and boot back into twrp recovery and locate the unzipped file and flash from the SD Card.

This requires a custom recovery. I used TWRP to make the backup, and used ES File Explorer to zip it. If you don't have a custom recovery, you need a computer to install one. There is a completely stock ROM available if you don't want to trip Knox and keep your device completely stock, but that does require a computer.
Ok i ill try it again when im in better service i thought i had to put it in my backup folder

It took mine a good ten to fifteen minutes at least to go through all that.
Did you remember to clear your Dalvik and cache?
Moved to Android Development since that's where this technically belongs.

How does it belong in development when there is no development, nor has there been, any development going on in this thread? People needing help and asking basic questions doesn't count as development.
Restore or install?!?!
I have seen people say to "restore", "install", and/or "flash" this file. These are all options in TWRP. Which is it?
