First and formost my phone is on stock eb13 with genocide kernel, rfs, and rooted with oneclickroot v2.5.5 and am still really new to all of this so please help me out.
First I was wondering if I can flash bonsai right away or if I need the new clockwork 3.x with ext4?
Second I was wondering if anyone on this rom is having any of the same battery charging problems as those caused by the new syndicaterom with twilight kernel on ext4?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Pretty sure Bonsai scans your phone and formats it for EXT4 if it isn't already. It backs up your data and restores it, too. Just do a complete backup then flash it. If it is a no go, just restore.

Mine charges fine while off.
Anyone using Sprint Navigator? Please check how many satellites it finds under Share & More/Diagnostics. I have 2 epics, 1 on Bonsai and 1 with just stock and Genocide, and both report 1 satellite and 10% GPS. GPSTest reports 9 Satellites and Google Nav works fine (hate the voice and graphics).
Thanks.
Can't install extras...
I tried installing the removed apps, and when running from "Install from SD Card" it says it is aborted and not installed. Any secret I am missing out on?

Live Wallpaper
I installed the missing live wallpaper files to the system/app folder on the phone but I cant get them to show up. I read something about changing the permission of the files, but have no idea how to do it.
Help!
Love the Rom so far!

Finally found it. Used Ghost Commander to change the permissions. Live Wallpaper is back but some seem to be missing from the stock selection that came with the phone. No worries.
Okay I finally pulled everything off and now have bonsai4all on my phone but for some reason I can't connect to wifi any more? It does come up, and I did save the ip address, but now, for some odd reason, it won't connect to it... help?

This may be a dumb question but before today I never even knew it existed. What is "safe mode"? Is that like safe mode on a windows pc where it only loads default drivers, or is it something else entirely?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA Premium App
I'm interested too. In what capacity did you first learn of "safe mode"?
??
I don't think this exists on this phone, so I am not sure what you're talking about here.
There is the bootloader, recovery, and then normal phone functions.
Where did you hear about safe mode?
I know there's hboot.. recovery and bootloader. But safe mode never heard of it

I actually found out about it on accident. My phone kept looping at the boot animation. I went to pull the battery but accidently hit vol down and power button at same time wile pulling off the cover. All of a sudden phone vibrated 3 times and then booted but it had safe mode printed in the lower left corner. I tried googling it but couldnt find anything thay explained exactly what it is.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA Premium App
You can try it on your phones. When the boot animation starts playing hold vol down and power at the same time. Keep holding it untill your phone vibrates.

It did allow me to fix my phone without having to restore a nandroid. I was trying to get a hotboot mod to work on the new stock rooted GB when i got the boot loop. But being able to boot into safe mode allowed me to change the moded file back to the original therfore fixing my boot loop issue.

Hmmm I did try it but couldn't replicate your results. I tried holding V-&Power at both the splash screen and the bootanimation. Both attempts yeilded only booting normally.

Hmm not sure works constitently for me. You have to keep holding them until your phone vibrates. You are on a DINC right? Are you on custom or stock rom, not sure if its specific to the rom or not. I am on stock rooted GB.

Yea no, I think its a HTC Sense thing. I'm currently running CM Nightly 168 so I don't think its a 'general' Android thing.

I've been doing some more googling and it seems every stock rom running android phone has safe mode, but different phones have different ways of entering into it. Some vol down and power, some vol up and power, some you have to hold the menu button, some vol down power and menu, and some holding down the track ball.

Hmm, never stumbled onto that before. Thanks to everyone for feedback!
Interesting, I'll have to try it next time I change up my phone config
Edit:
Wow, that just saved me from a lot of trouble. Flashed a voltage table that was unstable and caused the phone to bootloop, this worked saving me from an uninstall.

Saved me a lot of trouble and time too. Cant believe i never knew about it. Also this did work on CM nightly? The earlier post by wildstang said he could not get it to work with cm. Leaving me to believe it was a stock rom or sense related thing.

This happened to me yesterday while I was running the RC5 Community ROM. The phone froze would not respond so I went to pull the battery and it rebooted itself into Safe Mode. Took me by surprise too.
Sent from my Synergy Rom using XDA App
I'm not referring about bootloader or recovery, but Safe Mode. The phone boots up, but the word Safe Mode is on the bottom left corner of my screen. My downloaded apps are missing(part of safe mode), but the pre-installed apps are still accessible.
I've tried the obvious things such as turning off and back on and pulling the battery but I can't get it to just boot normally.
I don't want to have to wipe it unless I have to, especially since I'm unsure that will fix it.
Has anyone had this problem or have any suggestions as to how to get it out of Safe Mode?
Thanks
Anyone?

No luck there. It just goes thru the programming process and reboots when it's done. Comes back on to Safe Mode again. I already did a factory reset and still getting the same results.
Did this ever get resolved? My wife's Fascinate is stuck in Safe Mode right now.

Yes flash a ROM meant for another device. That will remove Odin mode and everything else. You will have the shiniest brick available. But it won't have Odin mode!

Coming from a device that utilized fastboot, I too wished this were possible. However, its never going to happen
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
I came from a device that utilized fastboot as well and I was used to it so I understand where you are coming from. Unfortunately, there's nothing you can do about it.
I had a device with fast boot and I have no idea where he is coming from. Removing download mode won't do anything to benefit performance. You can't add fast boot to a Samsung device..at least that i am aware of. Download mode is just the way things are done in these parts. Removing it would only remove a potential lifeline when things get scary with soft brick. It would also remove the ability to root. If you want fast boot back, you will have to go back to a device that utilizes it.

I guess I worded it wrong. Before I even flashed a ROM, my phone didn't say Odin Mode at the very top of the download mode screen. I forget what it said, honestly, but I'm asking if it's possible to restore my phone to it's original state before I used Odin to root and mod it.

Hmm, I just have an old personal custom kernel/rom on my old phone, I no longer use/hack it. It's totally useless, but I just want to keep my visual change forever (print my name at the boot, and some random other useless thing like that, it's juste for fun, somes little patch I make when I discovered the kernel), It is also to learn something new about the sbl-download mode, because I don't really know how it works, and I haven't found any documentations about this.
tl:dr : for fun, discover something new.
Thanks for any idea, or tips.
There is no way to remove download/Odin mode. To attempt to do this is absolutely retarded. I am now reporting this thread to stop the insanity. Do Not private message me again about this subject either.

There is no way, nor is there any need, to 'remove Odin Mode'.
So recently i decided to root my note 8.0 N5110. I put it in download mode and plugged it in thinking I already installed the drivers but i hadn't and the screen went black. I can get it to boot and hear the animation but screen remains black. It will also go into download mode and i reflashed the stock ROM with Odin hoping that would fix the issue but no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Can you get into recovery mode?
If so, try to do a data/factory reset and see if that helps

If you forget to enable debug mode and set USB debugging to enable in settings, there is no way you are able to flash properly.
You should have used Saferoot.zip. As it is the only rooter that installs the root files, so your not flashing a root over your stock ROM.
There should be a sticky about flashing using safe root here, but it seems like nobody is concerned about newbies getting in trouble with flashing.

I don't see either but.I get the blue bar when I hook up Odin.
What version of Odin are you using?
And I hate to say this but having a blue bar doesn't necessarily mean you are in download mode, I just plugged in my Note while it was "just" on and I have a blue bar saying COM blabla.
Now it almost looks to me that your screen or digitizer might be broken
