So when flashing a kernel or like a new radio or whatever do I flash the same way as a rom?

As I am somewhat of a noob to all of this.

You sir, are correct. Just wipe cache and dalvik, then flash. Backup before hand incase things go wrong.
Im just putting the roms on my phone, renaming to update.zip, and flashing. Do I rename the kernel the exact same way and all?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
No, please don't rename the roms or kernels. Just go to flash zip from sdcard and find the file.
Will and will not do! Thanks for the help.

Hi I've running the Kingdom B1.4 6/23 for a week and works really good for me so far, I just found 4.24 Radios. should I flashed and who I'll do it? I don't want to loose anything I have set up or apps.
Thanks.
If you have good signal, ect, then just stay where you are; if you want to, then download the zip from the radio thread in the dev section, backup, clear cache and dalvik, flash the zip.

Try flashing a diff ROM if it works then its the download if not then further troubleshooting is needed.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA App
definitely sounds like a bad download
This is actually the second rom I tried to flash.
First rom was miui and it said the something. I thought it was just a bad link.
Second rom was Tuesday and the problem reaccured.
I am beginning to think it's my phone.

How are you installing on your sd?

Wipe data then cache

are you checking the md5? are you installing it through cwm recovery and not rom manager?
Yup through the clockworkmod

hmmm got me beat.
you can try tdj's super wipe and wipe everything clean
you can try flashing a new CWM
try another ROM?
another microsd?
go back to stock and flash again?
if none of those works then yeah... don't know what to say. make sure to check the md5 to save yourself a lot of time
If you don't mind explaining, what's. Md5?

Are you installing the zip file on root your sd not in any other file?

yup. not from any folders.
oh sorry didn't see this post, but basically the MD5 checksum allows us to check if the file we downloaded exactly matches the original file
example (not real obviously)
Thursday ROM has a MD5 of 1234abcde
but what you downloaded has 2234abcde
that means you have a bad download. there is probably a couple bytes different in your download.
like both files can both be 300.1MB
but they might actually be 300.12 and yours is 300.10
THATS why md5 saves us a lot of time
NOT all md5 are listed, but thats the gist of it.
oh and remember your SDCARD card is
sdcard/external_sd/
That's the thing I tried a couple of roms and they all failed. So I'm pretty sure it's my phone.
In this case scenario what should I do to re root my phone. I know there's a couple different ways such as unrooting to sell.
So which method should I approach?
Thanks for all your help btw!

You don't need to Reroot, rooting is just superuser.. it just sounds like you need to get a new recovery that's all. You're already rooted right?
then just download Rom manager and reflash the CWM recovery in there.
Yes i am rooted. Can you link me to a site where I can dl a rom manager?

can i flash the newest tcwm with extsdcard support over twrp2? or do i have to use odin to install it? if i did, would it overwrite twrp or do i have to delete it first? how do you delete the recovery? i like twrp but i want to try out tcmw to see if it fixes my extsdcard mounting issues.
You can do it from Rom manager.

Shouldn't. I switch back and forth a lot.

Hello all,
So I'm running Scott's CleanROM AT&T SE 1.5. I want to install the latest version of CleanROM ACE onto my phone now.
This was my first custom ROM install, so I've never switched ROMs like this before. My question is do I need to do anything special to flash ACE, or can I just do it through TWRP like I did last time (from stock to CleanROM)?
Any help is appreciated!

You do it through twrp like you did before. You will need to backup anything you don't wanna lose. I use titanium backup to backup my apps, apps data and texts. You will need to clean flash coming from what you are.

Read the OP (Original Post) for the directions on how you should flash the rom. Read read read.
Clean flash means clearing all data of previous rom. You wipe cache, wipe data, and wipe dalvik in recovery.

Yes, read alot. If you are asking these kinds of questions you need to read up more. Search on here. Look on YouTube, there are plenty of videos

Thank you both very much. I'll do some more research and look around.

Download the updated cleanrom to your external sd card
Boot into recovery and do a nand backup
Wipe cache, dalvik cache, and data 3 times each (its easy if you go under "advanced" tab in wipe and it let's you select all 3 to wipe at once, then do that 3 times)
Click on install tab and navigate to the rom zip and flash away.
You shod be in familiar waters now.
