I have searched and searched and can't really find a detailed description on how to use the other options in mobile odin pro. First i choose the kernel I wan't to flash and then what? What about recovery, system, data, cache and all the other alternatives? Btw, my phone is rooted and I use a custom rom.
Directions?
Chose the kernel you want then just go? It's pretty much straight forward

Ok. Just flashed it and everything seems to work. Thanks.
Just one tiny thing, the phone cant find the sd card. XD
Den store har talat.
Was I supposed to wipe dalvik and cache before flashing?!
Doesn't the place you found the kernel had instructions? I don't wipe before installing kernels.. And regarding your sdcard, again, ask in the thread/place where you found the kernel. It could be a known bug etc

New to XDA, first post ever. Has anyone tried the new Kingdom Sensless 3d release and if so can you tell me if youtube is working as well as 720p video recording? Tried to post this in the developer section under the proper thread but it wouldnt let me since im new. Would love to know overall thoughts on this release as well. Thank you!
Sent from my Incredible using XDA Premium App
I believe YouTube works with a workaround (wifi has to be on but not necessarily connected), but 720p isn't functional yet.
is my daily driver everything is working fine there is a lag on the 720 but the devs have explained that is do to the fact that they dont have the codes or something to build new kernels.. youtube works just fine... if you haven't try it yet just flash it... you wont regret it..
Sounds good. Thank you. And just to be sure, i boot into recovery, do a factory restore, wipe cache, then install the zip from sd card. Is that the proper method to install this or will that screw up my phone? Thanks again!

Also, i currently have a different sense 3.0 rom installed. Do i have to flash back to the stock rom before i attempt to install a new one or can i flash a new rom over the one i currently have installed? Thanks again peeps!
Sent from my Incredible using XDA Premium App
No you don't go back to stock before flashing, yes go to recovery do factory reset, then go to mounts and storage and wipe boot, system, data, cache go back under advanced & wipe dalvik. Now you can install your ROM

Thanks very much. Interestingly, when i go into recovery it brings me to a clockwork recovery screen where i cant do some of the things u mentioned. I only have the options to do a factory reset and wipe cash. Is that enough? Does it matter what order u do them in? I also noticed that in titanium backup there is an option to delete the dalvic from there. Is that ok to do?

Also, you can format system in the mounts and storage menu. The rom's install script should include this, but never hurts to be safe.

What recovery are you on?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
Vital? You don't need a super wipe. And you only need the cache wipe if you're using CWM5. If you don't know how to properly wipe..
1. Wipe Factory data reset
2. Wipe cache
3. go into mounts and storage
4. Wipe system
5. Wipe data
6. Wipe cache
7. Go to advanced
8. Wipe dalvik cache
Simple eh? Is this your first device? Super wipe scripts are very uncommon. Better that you learn how to do it the old fashion way for your next handset than rely on a shortcut.
But... if you insist. Google the derek jay source forge. Its in there in dark side tools. There's a reason he discontinued them.

What he said.. I recommend upgrading to the newest cwm or twrp recoveries if you haven't done so yet.. The superwipe scripts are not needed on them

Well I guess the Koodo version of this phone is **** because Ive done a factory wipe twice and wiped the system partition twice then wiped cache and dalvik twice each then flashed PA ROM and CM10 and neither of them will go past bootloop, but hey aokp works fine except for random reboots and rare sod's.
Just saying, I know what Im doing btw guy

I understand that but don't take it so personal.. CWM 6+ is in the development section or flash twrp all your bootloop problems should be gone!

Ive always been a CWM guy.. but TRWPs wipe is much more convenient. All wipe options are on the same screen and they work pretty quick. There's a flashable zip somewhere in the twrp thread. Flashing it through goomanager is a pain. Also how exactly are you wiping? The only way I know to get a boot loop is to wipe your cache and dalvik after flashing the ROM or you're on CWM 5.0.2.7.

Unfortunately cwm restores do not work with twrp.. That may be a deciding factor in which recovery you use..

I understand that you can wipe with CWm, but with my S2 there was a superwipe script that went deeper into the system, some can even wipe for a clean Kernel install.
There is one I just can't remember where I seen it...somewhere in the dev section I believe. Search for it...I think I downloaded it but I can't find it atm lol.

[SCRIPT]Wipe All Zip
Ok guys, these are modded versions of TDJ's tools to add the preload partition. This should allow you to wipe cache and dalvik without jacking up the symlinks. Also for you guys having issues installing a ROM, the superwipe should fix that. First flash the ROM and reboot (important), then if you are having issues flash the super wipe and then the ROM again. Reboot and you should be good.
Thanks again TDJ!!! You rock bro.
Note to other developers: Feel free to link here from your thread, just don't re-upload them please. Thanks
Everyone else: if you see these uploaded anywhere else please let me know. I have no problem with others linking to these but do not want them uploaded anywhere else.Thanks

I used these scripts installing a ROM and I am having very serious issues. I was using Clockwork and when I rebooted I got stuck in a boot loop. I booted back into recovery but I was not getting fully back into recovery. I tried several times. I finally ODINed back to stock but I can't get the ****ing phone to boot up. It gets toa popup that says ""unfortunatley google partner setup has stopped" and then if I clear that "Google account manager has stopped", "google calender storage has stopped""unfortuantely the process com. android.phone has stopped". ****. I have tried ODIN to 3.5 stock and 4.0.3 both having similar issues.
Anyone have any idea, may have absolutley nothing to do with these scripts but any ideas would be very much appreciated.
What are you running and what are you trying to flash? Wouldn't be the scripts as they only wipe, format, align the partitions.

I was running CWM 6.0.2.9 touch and trying to flash the StockWalk ROM. I don't know if you have seen something like this before but it seems like I am totally unable to install any GAPPS even when flashing stock ROM in ODIN. I had flashed the same ROM before attempting to use the scripts, the reason was that I was unable to add my google account (may be a defect in the ROM but others are saying they have not had issue).
*when I say install GAPPS I am just refering to the ones that install on TW ROMS, I am not flashing a GAPPS file of any kind

OK so I thought I knew enough to not feel like a noob, but here I am with three questions.
First question is what is a "preload problem"?
Second question is this will only work on 4.1.2, and not 4.2.2 (CM 10.1)?
And the third question is will using the original DS wipes mess something up?
T mobiles 4.1.2 loads a preboot partition. Wiping cache with anything but these scripts also wipes these partitions. This script is modified to not do that. No preboot partition = boot loop.
Thus, if you're on anything BUT Tmobiles 4.1.2 you don't need this script and there's no advantage to using it.

Hey everyone. I was wondering if the latest Likewise S5 2.5 beta version will work for my Galaxy S3 T999. Im running 4.3 with the build NC2 running stock rom and kernel. How would i install that rom? Because on the page it doesnt show any way of installing it. I have CWM recovery. If anyone has this rom could they please tell me how much ram this rom uses. I really like this rom. Whats the difference between the LT version and the 2.5 Beta? Whats the prefixer (+1 fix) on the latest update for?
Thanks i would really appreciate if someone could answer my questions thanks
Sent from my SGH-T999 using XDA Free mobile app
Any ROM in the development section will work, and installing it is the same as any other ROM.. That's about all I can answer as I don't use that ROM
Thanks for the help. And one more question. Do i have to have an external sd card to install a rom. Ive searched this all over the internet and i couldnt get an exact answer
Sent from my SGH-T999 using XDA Free mobile app
No you can flash it from internal SD, but when you wipe make sure you don't wipe data or internal SD. Just factory reset, wipe system, and cache and dalvik cache all from recovery
Thanks how do i make sure i dont wipe the whole thing and only the wipe system/factory reset?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using XDA Free mobile app
On the wipe options don't select media or internal SD, that's about it
In twrp, by default, factory resetting will preserve your internal sdcard. It will wipe everything else you need to reset.
Many still disagree with me on this next point, but do not wipe /system. Any rom you might flash will do that for you. But if you do wipe system, and something doesn't work as expected and aborts the rom flash, you will now have a device with no o/s. Ive seen it happen many times and is always a headache easily avoided.
Like I said, some disagree with me on this, but none have been able to convince me that there's ever a time that wiping /system has any benefit.
