OK, it goes without saying that to do rooting and flashing you need to have at least a basic understanding of the English language, a decent IQ and the ability to follow basic instructions.
However, with the CWM mod that's out there for this phone, there are dangers in trying to use for anything other than flashing. IMO, the problem is that those discussions are getting buried in long threads that were originally meant for other Subjects. I feel that CWM needs to have a thread of its on to benefit EVERYONE, especially the newbies. So I am starting it off with this simple instruction:
DO NOT TRY TO USE A ROM MANAGER AT THIS TIME! THE DEVS WILL LET YOU KNOW WHEN YOU CAN USE IT
ALSO; DO NOT USE CWM TO RESTORE AT THIS TIME YOU WILL BE BRICKED
#2 IF YOU WANT TO GET INTO CWM FROM START-UP TO FLASH A ROM - HOLD DOWN THE VOL UP BUTTON + HOME BUTTON + POWER BUTTON, WHEN YOU SEE THE SAMSUNG LOGO, RELEASE THE POWER BUTTON.
TO END THE CONSTANT QUESTIONS ABOUT THE "GO BACK" MENU OPTION: SCROLL COMPLETELY THROUGH ALL MENU OPTIONS TWICE, THE GO BACK OPEN WILL THEN APPEAR
I ask the devs to post info. here even if it has been posted in one of the threads.
Forum Management FTW!
If one of the devs could throw up the file to flash CWM and the instructions, that might be helfpful as well.
Restoring currently has a bug that bootloops a device.
It should be noted that currently there is no go back option either. To enable this scroll through the menu 3x and select an option, go back will now appear.

AfaIk thats correct. No one has reported a successful restore. People who have tried end up in stock recovery loop. Hopefully someone will come up with a solution for these folks soon.

Huh?? So if you try a recovery it bricks your phone???? or are you still able to get into recovery and reinstall a ROM?
If your are unable to get into recovery can you at least restore and Odin?

Not sure an odin restore is helping people.
I have a theory on a way to fix a stock recovery bootloop but that would require a bootlooped device which I'm not willing to do...

I have found pressing the vol up and vol down at the same time enables the "go back" option. It will state that it is enabled.
It will pop up when you select another option first.

On the Fascinate when you flashed CWM, Stock recovery would come up the first boot, then you would flash an update.zip that took you to CWM and you could flash a compatible kernel and you were on your way no more stock recovery. I don't know if something like this could work to get ppl unlooped or not, just throwing it out there.
And ShotgunSam you might as well add don't restore w/ CWM in your big red warning.

Well, I'm already stuck there, if your idea isn't too complex, I can try it out
I have one that was bricked for this reason. If anyone has any ideas I will test them out. I am good with adb shell and have been trying to figure out how to change the bootmode=7 which I think is the sdcard to 6 which I think is the nand. Can't find where the file is in the system because I can't boot. Or a signed update zip that boots Android of the sdcard like the hd2 might work.

Go to the epic 4g forums and in development you'll find a thread that contains an update.zip that will use cwm 3.0.2.x. adb push that update to your sd card or just transfer it. Flash jts cwm compatible kernel through odin then try applying the update.zip.
Just a theory. If cwm boots, you can then flash a rom and that may work.

Thanks OP for this tread. I agree 100%.
1) I think some "bootloopers" have had success entering download mode when their SD card was pulled.
2) Have any brickers/bootloopers tried the JIG method to force download mode?
Google JIG:

3) Also, I *think* someone who had bootloops was able to clear his data/cache folder somehow/someway. And I *think* he was either able to stop the bootloops or at least get into download mode. But maybe I am thinking of something else here.
Would empty cache/dbdata/movinand.bin files be helpful for Odin? We could rip them out of one of the Fascinate Odin packages to be included with a "Restore to stock" Odin package. Based on the error I've seen of someone that tried to restore, it looks like /data is getting FUBARd and that's causing the problem, but it's not something I want to personally test since my phone is working.
Anyone having issues after a restore, please see if you have adb shell access. If so, please grab a logcat and post it here.

**Added a few new things now that we have S-off. Check them out below.**
This thread was created simply for Noobs. Yes, if you don't know how to boot into the bootloader..than you should be reading this. We were all Noobs once. You can always check this more than once since i will be updating it with more issues and solutions fellow members post that i might have forgot to add.
If you dont have this recovery flashed already here is a Link to a WORKING CHARGING WHILE OFF RECOVERY PLEASE FLASH IT JUST TO BE SURE YOUR SAFE here. Will get removed when Rom Manager gives you the right recovery and not a broken one.
My Phone Died and i can't turn it back on!!! help!!
1. Download the recovery i have posted above. Once downloaded rename to remove the name of the recovery until its just named recovery.img.
2. Plug your device to a computer and run the command
adb reboot
or
adb reboot bootloader
if your device doesn't turn on, then simply pull the battery, put it back in, then redo the steps.
3. Once your phone does power on from one of those commands, reboot into android OS and put the recovery on the root of your sdcard.
4.Boot into bootloader while plugged into the computer and run the following command
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Then the problem is fixed! I'm very sorry for the inconvenience, but thats the fix.
7/28/11 We now have s-off.
follow this guide here for a better in depth on how to do it. : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300
How do i flash a ROM on my sensation?
1.place the rom on the ROOT of your sdcard.
2.boot into recovery using either the app rom manager and choosing boot to recovery, MORE THAN LIKELY your custom rom will have the advanced power menu so you can just hold the power key, go to restart, then choose recovery, or powering off and booting holding power+vol down, then scroll down to recovery, press power key.
3. WIPE your DATA/CACHE partitions, then scroll down to advanced and wipe your dalvik cache.
4. go to install zip from your SDCARD
5. Choose zip from sdcard.
6. Find the rom, press power button, and install it.
7. Reboot and enjoy!
Will i lose all my texts, apps,etc when i install a new rom?
Yes you will. You could make a titanium backup of everything though and restore it when your done flashing the roms so you can get everything back. Download titanium from the market.
What is the difference between a Nandroid Backup and using Titanium backup??
Well When you make a nandroid backup, your backing up the ENTIRE rom, not just things you want to restore onto your new rom. in other words, with a nandroid, if you want to go back to your previous rom if you don't like the new one, use a nandroid backup.
Nandroid sounds interesting and is something i would like to do!! How do i do it?!
You boot into recovery, go down to where it says backup and restore, and choose backup, name it, then go ahead and back it up. Thats obviously where you want to restore it as well. You *ALSO* can choose the app ROM Manager and do it from there.
My battery Life SUCKS after i flashed this New ROM!! IS MY BATTERY MESSED UP??
Nah its not don't worry about it. Your battery life usually is going to suck because your battery stats got wiped from android, and it has to recreate it. So let the battery die once probably, fully charge it, then let it die again. then Charge it then you should be ok. Give it a day or two you should see a change. If not, let the developer of the ROM know NICELY in his thread. If you see that someone already posted about the battery life, no need for you to post it as well.
How do i flash a kernel??
You flash it exactly how you do a ROM. No need to wipe anything just flash it and reboot.
How do i flash a RADIO?
That depends. if its in a format and the name starts with a P then has a bunch of different numbers after, then you do the following:
1. Place on the root of your sdcard.
2. Reboot into the bootloader.
3. Then it will find it, and ask you if you want to update.
4. Let it do the update. It will only replace the radio.
5. Reboot into recovery and wipe DALVIK cache.
6. Reboot and enjoy.
ALWAYS make sure you read the Original post of the person who is providing the radio to make sure he ripped everything out and its ready to flash.
My Phone is S-OFF and it fully died and now it won't turn back on and it doesn't look like its charging while its off WTF AM I BRICK?!?!
No its not. From what i learned its in "offline" charging mode since the battery is so low, and even though the light isn't showing, its still charging. To turn back on:
1. Either wait a few mins and let it charge for a little, then pull battery, put it back in and try to turn on.
2. Plug into computer, let it sit for a second, then use this command from terminal:
adb reboot
It will turn it on for you. i honestly don't know WHY its like this, but thats just how it is for right now. i personally had to use the second option. If i learn more about this, ill update you guys.
Does this Recovery update?! If so, how do i UPDATE IT?!
Since S-off and recovery JUST became available to us, its prolly not updated right now. But for future reference just download the App ROM Manager from the market. Once loaded, if there is ever an update or something for it, it will be in that app. then you can choose it from there and it will update it for you.
I hold the volume down+the power button but it doesn't boot into it!!!! help!!!
Pull the battery out before you do it. OR to make things ALOT easier, before turning your sensation off go into settings,power, and uncheck the Fastboot option. Now when you turn the device off, it will fully power down instead of just going into a "sleep" mode. Now do it.
My wifi is terrible! When i turn it sideways, i lose ALL MY BARS!! WTF?!?!
'Try moving your hand, you might be detuning the WiFi antenna'. If you know that the WiFi antenna is adjacent to the camera lens, you're more likely to be aware when you're covering it. But Your not alone either. i actually have this same problem as well. Yes i know it sucks. There are only three things you could do here though honestly since We haven't really brought it down to a conclusion of is it our hardware that's causing it or is it the software.
1.You could boot into bootloader and data wipe your sensation to see if it fixes it. BE WARNED IT WILL WIPE YOUR DEVICE, MEANING EVERYTHING WILL GET DELETED OFF IT! APPS, MESSAGES ETC.
2.If that doesn't fix it, go into Settings-Wifi & Networks-Wifi Settings. Once your in there press the menu button and go to the advanced option in the pop-up menu. Once in there choose Best Wifi Performance.
3. If that doesn't work, then you need to get a warranty replacement. we know it sucks, we promise.
My touchscreen stops being responsive! Whats going on!?
It seems to be happening to everyone after about a week of use, me as well. We think maybe an ota will fix it. But to do a quick fix of it just turn the screen off for a few seconds then turn it back on. it usually fixes it whenever it stops working.
My Data connection is horrible and extremely slow. Why?!
This also seems to have happened to everyone. To try to fix, call t-mobile and see if they have your phone in their database, and make sure on their database it has that you have a sensation and they have the right data package going for you. Also make sure your Sim card isn't old, which t-mobile can also fix for you. I Can personally say talking with t-mobile helps. i used to have poor connection. now i can use wifi hotspot for my laptop while being on the phone talking with someone still with full 4G bars.
You could also try this fix ( Thanks Mysterioustko):
-Go into the dialer and dial *#*#4636#*#*
-Select Phone Info
-Go to the "toggle cyphering" button and disable it
-For good measure turn off radio and then turn it back on
-Then reenable the "toggle cyphering" button
Just got my new sensation but its really hot!!! Is it defective?!
No it's not defective, its just hot. These batteries can heat up from time to time, ESPECIALLY on your first few charges, but it won't happen much anymore after. My battery was extremely hot from just charging it for the first time with the phone turned off, so i'm speaking from experience and from other users as well.
The voicemail notification won't leave the status bar even when i don't have a voicemail!!
Simple fix: Settings-Call-Clear Voicemail Notification.
Any more questions? Please Ask here. Ill try to answer them and add them to this post. Hope this helps people. Let's not keep asking the same questions over, and over, and over.. and over again.

hahahahahahah.. dont push it... there is much too many threads on radios and their ddescriptions.. in a nut shell.. if you dont have a radio you cannot make a call or use the phone as a phone.. so a radio is a must,, and the phone cannot be used with it..
Basically, it is recommended to use the radio that came with the ROM.. but many of us keep trying the new radios as and when they hit the market.. radio can be independently flashed on the phone (using sdk or fastboot - many programs available)
One person may see significant improvement by flashing a new radio, the other may not or may even have poor results > the radio performance will depend on the location you are in and your service provider.
Generally with the updated ROM (custom mostly) the dev will put somewhere in the OP the recommended radio..
OK,?

Htc map pack
Hey I have a question I had the desire hd rom on my mytouch and it had the htc map pack where i can get different maps for different countries etc ... How will I be able to get it on the sensation thank you.
So I'm a noob to all this rooting biz, but had done tons of jailbreaks so thought this would be similar. It's not!
I rooted my phone (Samsung Infuse) and was going to flash MIUI on it. It wouldn't work, so I gave up and went to the 'Download Roms' or whatever section in Clockworkmod and thought all of those would work for my phone.. So I tried downloaded Darky rom, and once it downloaded and flashed, the phone is now stuck on
'Galaxy S'
GT-19000
Samsung
When I take the battery out and go to do a reboot or hard reset, it shows the reg samsung logo for a second then glitches to that galaxy s **** and it doesn't work. I can't even get it into recovery mode!
I have a Mac and I don't know what to do. Please help me asap. I just got this phone 3 days ago. And if I can't fix this myself, will my insurance/30-day return still be valid or will this **** up my warrantee?

I believe that after it has done its thing, the phone should have rebooted into recovery mode and showing an option to delete all user data or factory reset. If not, try manually going into recovery mode:
1. Turn off phone.
2. Hold down both up and down volume keys and the power key.
3. Let go of the POWER key when you see the samsung logo pop up. (keep holding the volume keys until it boots into recovery)
4. Now go down to where it says delete all user data or maybe it says factory reset. Something along those lines. Let it do its thing and then
5. Reboot system.
After doing so, you will lose root and all of data. Re-root, add the custom recovery. And READ READ READ. The only roms you can flash from recovery mode is gtg's roms. So check out all roms in the development section here. Read the differences and flash away
I'm currently on miui and I'm loving it because it's very customizable. But battery life sucks on it.

never follow a guide that tells you how to do an 80% overclock and says "follow instructions", always slowly increase clock speed by 5% increments to test stability first, meaning use it for a day to make sure you get no freezes or random reboots. And never have to to set clock speed on boot, have it change automatically with setcpu so it doesnt just hold it at that clock speed.
Do a battery pull and let it sit for about 60secs to discharge, put the battery back in and press and hold power and volume down to get into fast boot. boot into recover and reflash your rom and kernel.
thanks

The safer way is to use an OC kernel, such as RCmix3D V12 or any other available. Make sure that the kernel you choose is compatible with the rom u are in....
Trying to do that stuff for yourself is kinda dangerous as you have already experienced...

Most of the Custom roms in the forum are OC in the kernel, so you don't need to touch anything. Read some threads and see the changelogs. If you want to install a kernel you have to flash through CWM as usual. Just give a look and decide what u want...if you need a different kernel you can find the klquicksall's kernels here:
http://forums.acsyndicate.net/showthread.php?1728-Kernel-RCMIX-3D-CIFS-NLS-OC1-9-VDD-TUN-2WCR
again, read carefully what the file you are about flash involves....

I cannot pull it down and this is my first android device, I have had it for 3 days and it cost me a lot of money! please help I will do anything whatsoever, I'm so worried, I'm only 16. I tried restoring my phone to factory settings, wiping my memory card as if that would do anything. please help it's all I ask!
Hi there, I have had this problem before. I am no dev so I can't explain the technical issue, but this usually happens when you flash a mod that's not compatible with your ROM... if its compatible and your ROM has updated, the mod sometimes needs to be updated to be compatible with the latest version of your ROM.
Reflashing your ROM will completely fix the issue. I hate to say it, but ALWAYS do backups before flashing anything through recovery!!!

He's not rooted it seems. You first need to calm down. Then, go to settings -> About phone and see what build you have. If it's 2.20 then go here. If it's 1.73 or 1.82 go here. If it's 1.85 then go here. Once rooted, if you have anything but 2.20 you won't need to flash the boot.img seperately. In order to flash the boot.img go here.

i am rooted on software 1.85 please help me get this stupid notification bar back, it happened when I used Metamorph to change my battery
Is there possibly a way to revert to the original through "metamorph"? Most tweaks or apps like this only work on certain devices, so check the reviews or description more thoroughly if it doesn't say your device.

That happened to me on my old LG G2X. I tried to do something similar with a different program. It was messing with SystemUI.apk. I had created a backup before it did its work so I just replaced it, rebooted and it was fine. Might not be the same problem just because the symptoms are similar. If you had an unmodified SystemUI.apk file you could probably just overwrite it. Worst case, just flash a new ROM.
But yeah, in the future always take backups before you do anything like that. I learned that the hard way a few times.

In that case just back everything up and reinstall the rom.
Thanks

thanks for everyone's help, i figured out that I did not have bootloader installed so I got that (it was a ***** because I had to fake the CID which took forever) and I installed a new ROM, thanks for the help guys, really means a lot to me
