Think you have to be on stock kernel for that feature to work.

There's a thread in the dev section that has a stock rom that boots from emmc used to update prl and what not. I haven't tried using it but it might be worth a shot to boot it and move your apps then boot your original rom. But like the post above I'm pretty sure u gotta be on stock kernel.

That's true, but you can also temp flash stock then flash and use agats kernel and it will work until you go to clockwork. Then that cycle begins again. He explains it in his thread.

[Q] Dual Recoveries?

Not sure how it happened...well I do know....Flashed offical CWM for ROM Manager, but didnt think it took because it said I need a CWM compatible kernel. And then i used E4gtauto to add CWM-rogue because i didnt think I had it....so today when i booted into recovery from ROM toolbox, it went to CWM, did a nand and rebooted, but it booted into Rogue...? How can I get rid of one of them?
The nand you restored had a kernel with rogue on it. You should only have rogue on there now.
And I don't know if others feel this way, but I always only use the built in reboot menu or volume and power buttons(from off state) to go into recoveries and download mode, reduces issues

Please do yourself a favor and never ever use rom manager on this phone again, it will give you some shiny paperweight eventually
Thanks for the heads up, but what about ROM toolbox? It seems to be fine even rebooting into recovery among other things...

how do i switch from twrp to tcwm?

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.

thanks, i've known about being able to install cwm with rom manager, i just wanted to make sure it wouldnt mess anything up going from twrp to cwm.
Shouldn't. I switch back and forth a lot.

That happened because you didn't upgrade your recovery before wiping & stuff.

Lemme explain what happened. I
backed up my ROM in ROM manager.
So I installed newest cwr touch, placed the files on the SD card like always, I booted into recovery, factory reset data/cache...etc. I went to " install from zip" it's empty. I went to back ups, nothing. Do I was stuck in recovery. Put phone into bootloader (Im drawing a blank on what it's called), installed newest TWRP, booted into recovery. It found the zip, installed it and all was good. But now I wanna go back to my previous ROM to do titanium backup. I bought a jetpack joyride perk and when I installed it on the new ROM its saying I have to buy it. Do I was gonna restore data on it. Problem is, cwr won't recognize my backups.
Thanks in advance.

I don't want to sound like a jerk when I say this... But if something is at least somewhat important to you, it would probably be a good idea to back it up on your computer or whatever. It'd better safe than sorry, plus it's really easy to backup the entire SD with:
$adb pull /sdcard /backup-folder-on-computer
^ Linux command, windows will have a different path

I avoid cmd and Linux command if possible. And it's not gone, it's just placed somewhere else. A Nandroid is all I need usually.

Kies backup or Nandroid?

Alright so I'm on JB, rooted, Kt kernel and I wanted to factory reset my phone to see if battery life will improve because I've heard it works for some.
My question is, is it better to backup through Kies, reset, and restore from kies backup or will I risk bringing back theb (maybe) source of problems by doing it that way?
Or suck it up and restore from a TWRP or CWM backup. The only reason I prefer the Kies backup is because I hardly have enough memory left on my SD card to hold a Nandroid backup.
Thoughts?

I always hate dealing with kies but i get the issue of memory. That's why i like extra sd card space makes it easier for backups. I prefer cwm but its Ur call

Will the CWM backup include all the pics, texts, etc.?

Do a nandroid on external SD that's where I do mine. Also use titanium you can back it up to dropbox , box or Google.
Sent from my Samsung-SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
Nandroid on external sd. As far as the pictures go. I have mine default save to the sd. I normally do not format the external sd during restores, backups or rom swaps. So the pictures always remain.
However, one time I left the the sd card installed when I was returning to stock via oden. It wiped both internal and external. So now when oden is involved I pull the external. Just to be sure.

So now to my understanding in TWRP the option to create image.zip is just creating a backup that I can flash right through Odin like a rom as opposed to the option to create a backup?
What can I do with that option to create a backup? Is that also an odin flashable zip?

Usually Odin doesn't flash zips but it creates a flash able zip through cwm
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
Yea I meant CWM. Thats the recovery I had installed that allowed me to create the image.zip
So basically that just creates the exact state that my phone is in and allows me to flash it via cwm to get right back to that state.

Unroot help!

I was thinking, I rarely use anything that requires root and I am thinking of just going back to stock. However, the only firmware I have I'd the original tar file that I had when I rooted it in November and used when I had to do a warranty replacement. How would I get a newer version/update?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
There's a sticky in android development on firmwares.. There's prerooted and official ones you can flash with Odin and MD5 is the latest

Just start with the one you have and then do an update.

Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Suo, if I dl the md5 and flash it as normal, I'll lose root? Or should I do it through odin and use that md5 instead of the one I have?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Depends which md5 you download.. If you just download a stock ROM like stockarama, you flash through recovery, if you download a stock image then you will have to flash it with Odin.. The one you flash through recovery will probably have root, the one with Odin won't, as long as it's not a root66 image, but you can also just unroot the stock ROM, so up to you
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
They are all flashed in Odin.
If you want root, use the root66 firmware. Otherwise use the regular stock fw.

internal storage
Hi can someone tell me a few things:
Does flashing take up your internal storage and if so if phone is put back to how it was brought from store will the internal storage go back to that also? Personally I don't think it makes a difference as I'm trying to explain to my son that I think apps take up most of your internal storage.
Anything that goes on the /data partition can affect your internal storage. So if you install an app, it will take up some of your storage space on internal.
Flashing is different. Roms for example flash to the /system partition. Unless the dev includes apps they specifically put on /data this will have little effect on you're available storage space. The only way it does affect it is system apps store their data and dalvik cache on the /data partition.
Flashing mods and other items usually will be the same as flashing roms in this sense. Some will include data that takes up your user space, but most will have little, if any effect on it. There is usually little reason to flash anything to the data partition as you can generally just install normally.
