Can't change roms?

Some reason I tried flashing another rom but it won"t let me and keeps going back to the original rom. I had frankenstein and wanted to check out viper. I dled the viper rom and dropped it into my sd and wiped and did the usual through cwm but everytime i boot back up iot goes to frankenstein.. Any ideas? I even deleted the frank rom just to make sure but that shouldnt make a difference should it?

What version of clockwork? You will need version 3.

yeah that"s the one I got. It says Viper opened and completed but after reboot it reverts back to franken

oh crap you know what. I have v2.5.1. That's the one I got with that 1 click root process. Is there an updated clockwork for the epic?

same thing too
That happend to me to but from mystic mountain to frankenstein. What i ended up doing was odening to stock rerooting and then flashing. You don't even have to wipe because odining it technically wiped it lol.

seems like a lot of work just to change roms. What doesnt make sense is that randyshear from youtube that does a lot of the rom reviews and installs just changes them one after another with his epic. Is there a 3.0 cwm for epic?

There is a new clockwork version for the epic. I am on my phone so don't have the link but it is a post in the development section.

Ive got a complete package on my ROM thread,it contains CWM3.0.0.5,and everything else you would need.

ROM manager stuck?

I'm flashing a new ROM on my wife's Dinc, and I go into recovery mode through ROM manager and when I try to do anything, I only get the ROM manager logo in the center of the screen. I can back up to the main menu, but in order to reboot the phone I have to pull the battery. I would just flash the ROM through ROM manager, but I need to flash the ROM, and the gapps also. I don't think it will let me do both, plus I like to wipe everything myself before I flash. Any idea why this is happening?
Thanks in advance.

[Q] How does one go backwards?

So I used threads on the forum and mostly QBKing77's videos to go from stock EL29 to Blu Kuban.

Phone works great. Little hard on my eyes, might be the coloring of the theme. I just want to try something new, like CM9, but noticed that I have to go back to GB before I can go to CM9. Im just confused as to what to do now.
My phone currently reads:
Android version: 4.0.4
Baseband version: S710.10 S.FE10
Kernel version: [email protected] #3
Build number: RUJELUS22 The Blu Kuban FE10 1.0.3.5
If someone could explain how to go backwards so I can go back up to CM9 I would be very grateful!

Ok buddy, you got mobile Odin? That'll be your best friend from now on.

I do not have the mobile odin.

Ok well Odin on PC would work fine. Download all your files (rom, gapps, whatever you need to) and flash the el26 kernal with cwm. Then when that's finished and your phone tries to reboot, pull the battery and then put it back in, then boot into the recovery. Wipe all data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, then flash rom, then gapps and whatever else you may need. Be sure to do a nandroid backup when you first get into recovery.

Which el26 kernel? I think I had it, don't know where it went >.>
el26_stockcwm.tar.md5?
So I just boot into recovery, flash from that and then as its rebooting i pop battery out, go back into recovery and load up CM9 and then load up gaps and let its start?

Be sure to wipe everything first. And yes that .tar file is the one you need. Do yourself a favor and re-read the cm9 installation process just to be safe.

And buying mobile Odin would definitely save you a lot of trouble. It's completely worth it. You can ask anybody on this forum and they'll say the same thing.

So may have made an error. Apparently the gapps I put on my sd card was unarchived and so I didn't get to put it on before the phone started up and now when I try to apply it, it starts and then I get the fallen android with the !.

Can you still load the rom?

Ok, if you want gapps, then download whichever kernal the rom comes with, just the kernal tho. Then flash el26cwm again and flash gapps, then before you reboot, flash the kernal that you had just downloaded with rom. You won't lose any data so you have nothing to worry about.

Ok.
So Im using Odin PC to put EL26CWM back onto the phone, then boot up the phone into recovery. Then I flash gapps onto it, but before restarting flash the kernel thats supposed to come with CM9. Right?
Now, I don't really like the recovery that comes with CM9, I feel like the display is a lot darker and I don't have as many options. Can I use another recovery?
Also my boot screen is for the I9100 and it has a yellow triangle. Whats that about?

Don't worry about the yellow triangle for now. We'll get rid of that later. And about the recovery, no. Leave the one that it comes with. If you flash a gb kernal then your phone won't boot. And the ice recovery isn't safe. And it won't be until source comes out and our devs make a safe cwm for pics. Til then, just stick with what you've got.

The triangle is nothing to worry about unless you need to take it to sprint or get it repaired. Then I would use triangle away.

[Q] New ICS official Update Can't Get Past Reboot in CWM

I was running stock rooted G.B. 2.3.6 and just to see what would happen (I kinda knew already) I did the official upgrade to the ICS 4.0.3. Of course it went from UVKL1 to UVLE1 and I had backed everything up with Titanium Backup and also with Rom Manager. I lost root, because I did a factory reset because it wouldn't install the first 2 times. Oh, I was doing it through Kies. I wanted to do it by the book sort of.So after the install I tried to get root again but when I got into CWM recovery I had no functions working except reboot. No update.zip from sd, or anything else. I could scroll up and down and stop on the different options but when I pushed the button to make the choice it jumped back to reboot and that is all I can get. I rebooted and retried 4 or 5 times and same thing. So, now what ? I like the 4.0.3 but hate the massive amount of bloat and the ads and f**ked up notification popup/ads. I want my root back. I would be willing to start fresh again with a good, fast, everything works, custom ICS but don't know which to choose. that is one of the reasons why I tried this "official" upgrade. Again, as always, Thanks in advance for everyone who helps anyone here on XDA. K.K.-Out

Have you tried reflashing cwm?

I hope it works for you. Check the md5 to make sure you don't have a corrupt download too (of cwm)

Thanks ToledoG28, I tried that link and it wasn't a good page. I appreciate the effort. Maybe you could double check it and let me know.

OP: Here's CWM 5.0.2.6. After flashing and once youre back into your phone, you can install ROM manager and upgrade to whatever you want. Push this via Odin.

This happened to me. I had just had to wipe the cache in recovery and it booted. I would try that first

You have to use darkside wipe and darkside cache wipe. The regular recovery wipe isn't working properly.

You just need to Odin ics.

Guys he can't get into recovery. How can he flash super wipe etc if he can't? And how will odining ics fix that? He needs to odin the recovery i posted.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA

I got it solved you guys. Thanks to all of you. I did another factory reset, and then found the actual T989 Hercules .tar file (the one I used was from a post for ICS from November or December and was actually an Infuse tar file.) and reinstalled it. I was able to after I got cwm recovery old style not touch. Touch was what was giving me problems. So I Odin the new Hercules.tar and then rereinstalled Superuser zip and everything went smooth. The only thing I am seeing as a problem is the phone won't sleep. If I have the phone plugged in, I can't shut it off. It wants to immediately turn itself back on. I like to have it shut down and charge at night sometimes. But it won't let me. Any ideas? Thanks again everybody.

[NEW][KERNEL][REPACK] FL16 with AGAT tREC_v0.3.2 recovery

After countless attempts and many hours of trial and error
I present the FL16 Repack Kernel with new recovery tRec_0.3.2.
This recovery has been compiled with CM10 (JB) source and works better with JB roms/OS.
The repack is not perfect yet but it can be used as daily driver as is.
I'll continue working on it and try to fix remaining bugs.
Now to repack.
What is working:
Backup
Restore
Flash zip files
Wipe Dalvik
Wipe cache
Wipe/Factory Reset
Restore Nand back up created by previous recovery/previous OS
Apps on sd and paid apps problem is mostly fixed.
You can reboot phone, power off from power down menu or from quick boot.
Apps on sd and/or paid apps will disappear only after battery pull and/or when you restore nand back up coming from ICS.
I did perform following tests.
Restore ICS back up from JB kernel/recovery - Restore complete phone booted.
Restore JB back up while running ICS - Not going through in one run. It will restore boot/recovery and bail on system restore. Just boot to recovery from boot menu. It will take you to new recovery. Start restore again and you JB back up will be restored
Flashed ICS rom from JB recovery - flash went thru. Phone booting normally.
Flashed JB (Shadow-God's rom) from ICS recovery - flash went thru. Phone booting normally.
Restored JB back up while running JB rom - restore completed. Phone booted normally. Apps on sd and paid apps are present.
This is a short list of all tests performed thus far.
I know there are quite a few good JB roms and I don't wanna delay release anymore.
So here we go:
AGAT_FL16_repack2.tar
As stated above apps on sd and paid apps issue is arising only after battery pull and/or nand restore from ICS.
In case that happens to you I'll suggest to keep Mobile ODIN and a stock kernel tar handy so if you have to pull the battery you
can flash stock kernel reboot phone and flash repack again.
Hopefully I can fix last remaining bugs soon.
Till than
Enjoy.

Installed perfectly and was able to backup. One thing I noticed which really doesn't mean much is that when i first go into playstore, I must first connect with 3g and then I can reconnect to WiFi and then resume session in playstore. No problem but just wanted to point out incase someone has an issue with playstore.

Did you check the MD5sum before you flashed? Also, how did you flash it? What ROM are you on? I flashed with mobile odin and all is well for me.
