I went to a local page plus dealer and after several tries trying to flash i was told i could flash my phone because of my memory was read only or something like that? Is this something dealing with the kernel? I'm on Aokp and i see the yellow triangle every time i boot up..
Your rom should only make it easier imo.. Id suggest flashing a stock rom for dial codes such as the mms fix and 4g mac address alterations, if you even need it!
Flash it back to stock using odin, go get it flashed, then root and rom.
Another suggestion is to learn the "flashing" process. Youd be surprised at what youll learn and it comes in handy!
As always read, read again, and re read everything you just read!

Thanks for the quick reply!!
Long story short, i just bought this phone 2 days ago and i'm trying to grasp everything.
I came from a droid x and it was much different. To go back to factory, all we had to do was SBF.
Are you familiar with what files i need to go back to stock?
Oh yeah, im currently on a nandroid backup that i made when i first rooted my phone. But i see that i'm on Agat's dirty kernel. Which kernel do i need to be back stock? EL26? FH13? etc
Maybe this would help as well:

Take a glance in the dev section it has everything youll need there. I suggest EL26 odin package. NO BRICK! id also read up on the post in this section describing "for the most part" the flashing process for boost. That will kinda give you a general overview of what your in for if you decide you wanna do it yourself. Btw odin isnt hard to figure out at all at all but like i said read the directions in the op carefully TWICE, THEN AGAIN AS A PRECAUTIONARY MEASURE AND READ IT AS YOUR DOING THE FLASH PROCESS.

Yeah i learned to flash between boost and verizon/sprint and some tricks a few months ago but im no pro.. It honestly doesnt matter what your on or what your using.. Odin is pretty simple and you can use it on whatever rom. at least i have. But you take your own risks lol if you screw it up its not on me.

Ahhh...I think i'm learning..So with my droid x, i used to use Rslite(Not sure if you're familiar with it) to go back to my stock ota rom.
I'm assuming Odin would be the same thing. It lets me go back to Ota updates whenever? Am i on the right track?
Yeap! I had an atrix but i prefer samsung. And your definately on the right track. Odin can be used to flash custom roms as well if there made for it.

If anyone has ties to Koush it might be a good idea to let him know about all the hard bricks that Rom Manager/CWM touch is causing from the ICS leaks on our device. He should consider dropping support for us to avoid further bricks by people that dont know better. I just sent him a DM on twitter.

yea good luck with that, on the prevail/admire/replenish/precedent people were getting bricks left and right because of rom manager. in fact the only safe option for them was "reboot to recovery". we have numerous threads about how not to use it all over android forums. myself and a few others came up with a way to fix cwm (because they are all arm6 devices and koush's rfs modules are arm7 and higher only...) and make it official.. he told us no he didnt like it and to come up with a new way to do it. instead now we have to try and figure out a new way of doing it all while more people get bricks.
so, for you to request he pull support on a product that makes him money and sometimes causes bricks, is a VERY unlikely event.

LOLOLOLOLOL you must be a former evo owner?
on the OG Epic rjmjr69 (ACS team leader) sent him an epic for recovery purposes, 4 months later he still had yet to make it or reply about sending it back. he finally got it back after a few more months and we got a 2.5 version "fake flash" which im sure many of you are familiar with (its how he does all of his samsung recoveries) when version 3.x was made by dameon and we broughtin ext4 support again took forever and then we had just ext4 cwm.. from there drockstar spent MONTHS learning cwm and getting dual fs cwm made. in teh 4.x series drockstar was teh champion of cwm whipping out all sorts of versions and improving on many things. after almost a year he finally got cwm official status again to go from 2.5 to 3.0.0.1 now to 5.0.2.0
my point is all the work was always done all he had to do was sync up their repos, from my experience if you want a cwm that works and is updated, do it yourself... dont rely on him. the atrix has been supported since months after it came out, photon just got support 2 months ago despite it being the SAME phone...
Captivate. But I guess the story is different here. He worked with designgears and had a recovery within days. Same story with SGSII.
lucky you guys
Factory restore was the culprit for me. use the format all zip and that seems to be much safer.

I just bricked my Epic Touch on Saturday. I used Rom Manager to back up the phone. The phone now is in the dumpster. I've used Rom Manager on my EVO 4G, and my EVO 3D for a long time and found the app very useful. I've heard others bad mouth ROM Manager, but I never experienced any problems until now. Any how, I strongly suggest everyone STAY AWAY from Rom Manager if they have an Epic Touch.
I have been using Rom Manager on every ICS leak..I am also very safe in that I don't backup anything as well as flashing back to GB before going onto any other ICS build..User error is the issue, not Rom Manager.

I mean I am no pro, but I am sure those devs use every method thinkable when flashing to make sure all methods are compatible. It is inevetible that they will have some bricks. Rom Manager has worked over and over and over for me is all I am saying.
I am not using the touch recovery btw. I flash CWM with Rom Manager and then reboot into recovery with it.
It should also be noted that when I flash CWM using Rom Manager, I do not choose epic 4g touch when it asks what phone I have. I select the bottom option, which I believe is just Galaxy SII

InterLopers STOCK FC14 USB Persistent Kernel
!DISCLAIMER!
This kernel does NOT come with Clockwork, or any variant of custom recovery. It's recovery is as stock as possible.. Wipe functions do work but I recommend ONLY flashing from ODIN or EL26 and wiping with Calk's Format All zip. This seems to be the safest way. We will not be held responsible if you flash this and your dog dies, your car is stolen, your home is broken into, you lose your job or if Jesus comes back like "The hell you doin?" Sorry, NOT OUR PROBLEM. Unless like.. Jesus comes back cause.. that'd be kind of strange and coincidental.
Description!!11one
STOCK FC14 Repack
STOCK Recovery
USB Mass Storage mode and ADB are active on boot JUST PLUG IN USB AND LET ER RIP!
ADB Will NOT notify of USB Debugging currently, sorry but it DOES work.
This kernel is much like the previous ones for other builds. Unfortunately because we're using stock scripts from FC14 you can not currently use this kernel with any NON-TW ROMs.

I want the dump because SOMETHING is wrong so I'm trying to make some comparisons. I'm just try to gather some information from different setups to find out why the cwmr is bricking phones. What I am looking for specifically is to see if what is the kernel and recovery should be doing is what is actually happening. I haven't checked md5 sums since FC13, but I knew then that they were releasing the same kernel. It's even being built by the same bot. I guess it's easiest to say I'm trying to test a theory. If it ends up being that all is well I'm going to continue trying to compile CWMR 5.5.0.4 against what Samsung is releasing so we have a good recovery that everyone can use. I will do a dump of my own device once I have time. I'm going on a date tonight with my wife, and have a B-day party tomorrow night, so it'll have to wait til after that.

Does this support init.d scripts?
I think the issues with bricking is because the data partition has slightly moved in ICS. People are getting flash happy and doing everything correctly.
I have been double sometimes triple wiping data/cache/dalvik then formatting system before flashing a new ICS ROM, No problems here at all.
1. ODIN el29 rogue recovery only
2. Boot straight into recovery
3. Wipe partitions
4. Reboot to download mode
5. Flash in ODIN
6. Enjoy!

Enjoy B-day and night out.
Anyway, what I'm saying is I've dumped them all and compared them against each other and the tar files. The recovery.bin (mmcblk0p6) is always the same as the zImage (mmcblk0p5), as in byte for byte the same with matching md5 sums. I'm talking about the entire partition, not just the kernel portion stripped of initramfs. If the entire partitions (mmcblk0p6 and mmcblk0p5) are the same, then both kernel and initramfs are obviously the same also.
You can see the same in the leaked tar file releases. recovery.bin is exactly the same as zImage. For all intents and purposes it is just serving as an unused backup of zImage.
So I could dump whatever you wish and send it to you, but you'll find you already have the recovery.bin because you have the zImage. Also the kernel and initramfs of both will be exactly the same.

Nand backup is the backup utility you use in CWR. And Non-Touch is just that; it's the standard non-touch version of CWR (ClockWorkRecovery). You can find both versions here: http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager
You're going to want to read, read and then read some more and get comfortable with these tools before you start using them to flash. There are a lot of great threads here that explain everything in great detail, and most of them are pinned at the beginning of each thread.

Clockwork recovery. There are 2 types. 1 utilizes the touch screen the other uses the volume, power buttons for operation. Recovery is used to make a backup of data and system on the phone so you can go back to it later.....if needed. Recovery is also used to flash new roms and other fixes.

Short for ClockWorkRecovery. It replaces the stock recovery our phone ships with. It allows us to root our phones, flash new ROM's and of course...do nand backups. Your going to need CWR on your device before you root or flash any custom ROMS.
Like I said....please read. I read on these forums for many many hours before I flashed my first ROM. In the end, it really pays off.

His phone is rooted. It's pretty hard to brick flashing as long as he flashes a rom from our dev section.
Definitely check out the stickies, though, man.

Let's put this in a way you'll understand:
Nand backup = What you do when you "always back up all my **** before i install any rom just in case i dont like it."
Non touch recovery = ClockWorkMod Recovery 5.0.2.7, the recovery utility that darkside recommends you use on all his ROMs you've been flashing.

Rather ask then break something, but running MJJz's blend 1.6 which is currnetly under FE22 but no cwm. I've been out of the flashing world since then (May) so a bit behind on the what/why. I'm looking at my windows VM with Odin which when I start shows
E4GT - FE22 Restore - Rooted. So can I get a 1-2 refresher.
I have the new MJ ROM which contains has the updated FF18, but can't install that (or any other ROM w/o a recovery).
So do I need a newer version of Odin, or do I simply run that, connect, and go? Time is getting more forgiving so I will have time to play a bit more often and keep up.
Tnx

Well since you have asked something in wrong section, let me just answer it..
Use mobile odin to flash EL26 Kernel with CWM and then flash ANY rom you would like from the recovery.
You could use Sfhub's auto root package to flash EL26 kernel with CWM and then flash ANY rom you would like.

Hey, I got nothing else to do while I read up on mobile odin (actually pretty cool) or just go straight odin .. so bring it on >
ok so if I have a problem do I keep it in this comical one or post a new one in the Q&A?
The problem, well since you asked, I used odin 1.85 and the stock el26 with CWM. Flashed, rebooted and the boot screen now has the model along with a nice yellow triangle. The good is that I was I did get into CWM (doing another nand backup) but I have some new ROM's to test, do I simply format and install? I will read up while I await the comical (yet deserved) comments or post in the q&a!
Regardless, you guys are great, so thanks!

I was hoping this was moved by now but anyways..
Thats why I posted the 2 methods. Auto root package and mobile odin. They don't trigger that triangle. You can use usb jig or triangle away app to get rid of that ugly triangle.

Props goes to eng.stk for how to unofficially flash the GSM images. I have modified his quote to include this devices links, and Im' sorry for not asking to quote him. The only credit I take is for modifying one line to make it flash to our devices. The rest goes to the UbuntuOS team and eng.stk

For people wondering about install (tried with TWRP):
1. Nandroid backup
2. Factory Reset
3. Grab toroplus_ubuntu.zip and quantal-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip
4. Flash toroplus_ubuntu.zip
5. Flash quantal-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip (this one will take a while, grab some coffee :laugh
6. Reboot (screen will go black but after a few seconds Ubuntu is up)
7. Profit :highfive:
This install didn't wiped my sdcard. I just restored my TWRP backup after a short Ubuntu testdrive.
If you are paranoid, just copy your stuff from SDCARD to your PC before flashing.

Quote modified to include CORRECT links for our build. I left the rest in tact.
The only thing I did was modify the line so that the zip would be willing to flash to the toroplus. It does not have CMDA/LTE connection, but it does flash and work on WIFI just fine. With it's limited uses ATM, I believe that getting working radios would be useless, and I only have a Verizon toro (though I know for a fact that this boots). Try it and see what I mean. Do not wipe system, or it will not boot.

If I can get a toro phone working, I'll come try this with a helper, but I don't own this, and can't manage to get the toro working (Even though I ported a GSM android rom to verizon, no clue). It could be the base image. I'll work on it further once we get a more fully functioning GSM release. It's good for all developers now thaugh as long as you don't need CDMA features as WIFI still works fine.

It's not gonna be much better untill they have a full release. It's not open source quite yet, nor is it ready to use even on GSM. Once the full release and source comes out, we will all have a field day. I MAY (no promise) be able to get calls/texts working on this after their porting guide comes online. I may have just done something dumb. I'll keep the first post up to date.

It is fun to wipe your device for broken isnt it!
Wow. That was pretty slick. Kinda difficult to get used to the gesture based ui. Its really snappy even though its still got its bugs.
I can't wait until the full release and support for CDMA networks.
And the sidebar dock like Ubuntu os is really nice too.
Definitely something different which is good. And even without cell connection, I like it better than iOS. HA
And coming from the Epic Touch, a 500mb ROM didnt even hit me as being huge. Most touchwiz ROMs are close to that size.
