Also there is this kexec bootable stock ROM. It allows you to temporarily boot to stock FC09 from your SD card, where you can do prl updates and activate. Then upon reboot, your CM ROM will be unchanged (short of the prl updates or activation)

If I recall correctly, this only works for CM9 based roms and lower. It won't work with CM10 based roms due to the MTD partition resizing between the two major versions.

Nope, they fixed it for 10 and 10.1. I just used it last night on 10.1 to update my prl.:thumbup: The new version is cleaner on the SD card as well. Nicely self contained in the multiboot folder, instead of all over the card.

Thanks. I was hoping to multiboot this as a daily driver, but no USB storage is critical, and I heard it can't be used along with TWRP also... Bailing out

I finally got a CWM system dump. I can put it as a .rar file but how can I upload it here?
Just upload to Multiupload or any other file hosting website.

TAR or ZIP is more accessible, but any filetype, just upload it to Multiupload. I'd hella appreciate it as well!
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
yeah Im uploading it right now. This is the file you put in the root directory of your external SD card. once you boot into CWM you go into backup and restore->restore-> and it should be there.
Just unrar and copy the clockworkmod folder straight to the external SD root.
I must say tho the T-Mobile juggernaut custom rom is way better than the Telus Rom. yes it gets stuck on the 3G symbol but it is actually 4G speeds. So far the best I have is juggernaut with the stock t989d kernel in the dev section. best internet speeds and smooth as hell. quadrants are not great but who cares when the phone feels great fast and battery life is awesome.
right on id like to take a look at the telus rom
here you go guys enjoy. Hey Mr. X let me know if you find something juicy. i am glad to help

PS. hey Mr X is there a way you can finish that t989d stock kernel we were talking about in a CWM .zip format. I will really appreciate it

Yah sorry i had forgotten about it.
Is there any possibility of this stock system dump being converted into a CWM flashable stock ROM? I'd like to try other ROMs, but AFAIK I can only restore the kernel to stock, not the entire ROM yet.
So if I root and flash my TELUS gs2x, will this take me back to stock rom via Odin?
Sent from my SGH-T989D using xda premium
Awesome! I flashed a 3rd party ROM without backing up the original, only to realize 4 ROMs later that I preferred the original ROM better than all of them... So I restored using your dump and flashed a jugs kernel over it and I'm quite happy with it so far.

if there was a device profile for you guys id compile nightlies for ya, however im not gunna take each nightly and edit it after compiling for use with us cellular, sorry i dont have that kind of time. if you had a device profile like this https://github.com/EpicCM/android_device_samsung_epic4gtouch then i could merge it in and add it to my build script, would take it maybe 20 mins extra to make it :/
my suggestion is to get a modified device repo going and then you could have a from source build
Downloading 6/19... so I just flash this straight over 6/18 from recovery? Should I wipe everything beforehand????
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Looks like the nightly is done uploading. ~35 downloads while the md5 was still changing (good half a dozen were mine) ;-)
Sorry if I ask this....might be common knowledge, oh well. I'm on 6-18 nightly atm, if I want to update to 6-19 (I'm already using goo.im from the play store, and already dl the rom) can I just use the included safe CW from 6-18 to flash? If so, After flashing do I need to do anything else? Thanks again for the help..

Hi, and thanks to whoever takes the time to help out,
I would like to make the jump to PhantomPhreak53 CM10, and i am currently using a GB rooted ROM nothing special, and i'd like to know which kernel to download from Chris41g's list of kernels, he has so many and all have similar/different names, Please Help
Those kernels are only for cm9. Won't work with cm10. Just use the one that's packaged with the rom.

I was curious because he specifically said to make sure to have a safe kernel and then links to the page so i assumed he intended for Chris41g's kernel to be what he had in mind for flashing his ROM, so your basically saying, i'm good to go without installing a kernel for good measure ?
No off you want a safe kernel download el29 direct boot and install it via Odin and then use that to flash cm10.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
All GB Kernels are inherently safe so flash away. The new Kernel will be installed as part of the new Rom install

El29 direct boot was made specifically for flashing ics based roms. You can find it on the epic touch cm9 blog. Just do a Google search for it.

Ok now that I'm confident in my ability to flash ROMS and Kernels in the new Linux 3.0 & 3.4 versions that came with JB, is there anyone who could help me out with finding modems and flashing them and what each modem is for and etc? I really don't understand the new system as i came over from the OG EVO and from what i understand thus far, its not exactly the same as flashing radios as it was with GB or ICS.

Since the update to the 3.4.x kernel the scripts don't work anymore. Flash a TW ROM and follow those instructions
