Hi All
I have a problem and i didn't know how to solve it
from tow days i downloaded and installed a KITKAT rom in my arc s
so normally i flashed the kernel that came with the rom !
but know i want to back to 4.1 JB
but when i flash the kernel i want i couldn't go into CWM to install the rom !!
i tried Fusion kernel and SuperFusion kernel but no hope
can any one help me ? :\
thx all
and sorry , my English is very bad :\

FIX IT
i fixed the problem by installing the stock rom and reinstall the kernel which i want to use :laugh:

You can not properly flash .efl files using Flashtools.
Follow The @DooMLoRD's for custom elf flashing.

[Q] R800i rooting/flashing lupus kernel help requiered

Hello
I'm using flashtool and it tells me my device is rooted, but when I try to flash the lupus kernel, flashtool tells me my device should be rooted.
So here is what I did: - I was a bit noob at the start and a lot failed, tried flashing the kernel multiple times but did not have drivers. (I tried rooting my device multiple times)
- Some research and I figured I should unlock the bootloader. This worked fine.
- Whenever I open up flashtool it says to me my device is rooted, but when I try to flash the kernel the error occurs telling me that my device is unrooted.
Now I'm not sure my device is rooted as it should be or is there something else I can do?
Thanks in advance,
Pazy
EDIT:
this is my log I got now: I tried some other drivers for my device :
