THANKS!

What i should do with this .img file?

This recovery won't allow you to do a boot or system wipe. just data/cache and dalvik. If you do the wipes included you can still boot the phone afterwards...that's not a full wipe.
Just FYI.

It wont actually allow you to wipe the phone like AmonRA does?
Then thats useless wouldn't you agree?

How To: Flash UltraJack Recovery to your Phone (Windows/Mac/Linux)
How To: Flash UltraJack Recovery to your Phone (Windows/Mac/Linux)
NOTE: This is a modified version of the AmonRA recovery flashing package.
The only thing I really did was modify the .sh/.bat files and include the UltraJack Recovery.​
@devilzeye793 and whoever else may be wondering: Here you go!
1. Download the attached ZIP and extract
2. Make sure you have the necessary drivers installed for bootloader mode (installing PDAnet seems to do the trick on Windows: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9861928#post9861928)
3. Boot your phone into bootloader mode (Google it, I can't list all the ways here).
4. Plug your phone into your computer and let Windows install the drivers automatically (if you're on Windows, unfortunately I'm not really sure how this happens on Mac/Linux). NOTE: On some phones (i.e. the U8150), the phone will stay on the carrier logo screen. THIS IS NORMAL!
5. Run the installer for your OS from the extracted folder (.bat file on Windows, .sh file on Mac/Linux) and let it work its magic
6. After the script has flashed the recovery image (should take ~1-5 seconds), unplug your phone and remove/re-insert the battery to get out of bootloader mode
7. Enjoy your new recovery image!
Hope this helped some people out there!

btw what Ideos ROM is Best in your opinion !! ????

Great, I'm glad it worked out for you!
I am currently using the stock ROM, simply because I currently see no reason to install any of the currently available custom ROMs for the Comet. As soon as someone has created a stable port of Cyanogen however, you better believe I'm going to be one of the first people on board!

It has a Wipe option but it only wipes the caches it seems and not the boot and system areas.

Can this be uninstalled? I need to send mine back so I need to get the phone back to it's original state...

I'm not an expert, but you probably need to find an IMG of the original recovery image and flash it to the phone.
Anyone have it?

[Released][ROM][ODIN] ICS Stock firmware XXLQ9 repacked with CWM 6

Q. Why there is a need to repack the firmware?
A. As you may know, the stock kernel in the stock firmware has the emmc hard brick feature enabled which is believed to be the reason of 2 hard brick incident reported in the forum. And even worse, the emmc hard brick bug (mmc_erase) can be called @ anytime after the system is booted with a buggy kernel, which means that your device can immediately get bricked after the first reboot.
Q. So is it okay to flash the ROM via odin with a different bootloader (i.e. boot.img)?
A. Theoretically, yes. But the problem is that when we repack the odin package with a modified boot.img. The download counter will rise and a yellow triangle will appear on every boot.
Q. So is there any way to flash the stock bootloader but without letting it get booted?
A. Yes. There is a way to do so. After you have successfully flashed a package via odin, the odin bootloader (based on BCT partition) will invoke the recovery bootloader to finish the install process. And if you are not using the stock recovery, the process will get halted and then leave you at the recovery (CWM) screen. And then you can flash a kernel via CWM at this point.
Q. Is there anything that I should aware of?
A. Yes. Just like flashing any firmware, After flashing the ICS package, it is important for you to backup all the important files before flashing.
Guideline 1 [For people who is willing to use CWM6 (provided by Adam77Root)] (prefered way) :
1. Turn on your device and connect it to a computer
2. Place the kernel file, superuser file (which can be flashed via CWM) and new_sec_csc.zip into your internal SD card first and make sure all your important data on /sdcard are backed up (You are free to select any kernel but make sure the mmc erase part get disabled from the kernel completely)
3. Turn it off and remove the external sdcard from the device
4. Download the ICS firmware files which contains GB kernel and CWM6
5. Put the device into download mode and flash the above package via odin 3.07. Place the package file (*.tar.md5) into PDA part (You can now flash with pit file as well, however the internal sdcard data will get wiped so it is important for you to make a backup for important files before flashing) (DO NOT attemp to flash any ICS package via odin 1.85 as there is a high risk that the download process get stuck in odin v1.x series, and you have to unbrick your device with nvflash tool if error occurs)
6. After the device is restarted, it will get into recovery (CWM) mode. And the script provided by Samsung will be failed to execute due to a assert call. (Don't worry, you can execute the script again by using the patched new_sec_csc.zip)
7. Backup any important data in /sdcard (external sdcard) now if you didn't do so. You can do this @ 'Mount and storage' -> 'Mount USB devices'.
8. 'Wipe cache' and 'Wipe data / factory reset' (make sure you have all your important data on /sdcard backed up and your have removed your external sdcard device)
9. If the above stage has wiped your CWM flashable zip file as well, you can mount the device to a computer via mount menu and you can place the zip file to the phone as mass storage again.
10. Install the CWM flashable zip file (superuser, new_sec_csc.zip and your kernel file) from sdcard (For an unknown odd reason, all the packages you gonna install in this step will have signature verification error, but it is safe to proceed. Just switch off the signature verification from the menu or choose to 'Install untrusted package'.)
11. After you flashed kernel, you are free to flash anything and free to reboot now.
12. If you have used a pit file for flashing the package in odin, a message will be appeared in notification center telling you the filesystem on /sdcard cannot be recognized. Just click on it to format the sdcard and then you are free to use anything now.
13. If you are still afraid of breaking system integrity as you were not using the samsung recovery script to finish the update process, navigate to 'Options -> Back up and reset -> Factory data reset' and totally reset the device there.
P.S. If you accidentally pressed reboot the system now in CWM 6, don't worry, the system will not be able to boot into normal mode. And you can redo all the things since the beginning.
Update #1 : During testing the flash process, I have found that the repacked firmware cannot be flashed with odin 1.83. It is important to get all the ICS firmware being flashed with odin 3.07 (or 3.x sereis) instead v1.x series. Otherwise you have made a risk that your partition (PIT) table is messed up so srsly that you have to use nvflash tool to restore everything. I will tell this to cooleagle to get everyone knows of it.
XXLQ9 :
Stock package with GB kernel and CWM6 which is based on safe stock GB ZSLE6 kernel (just extract the file in the splited zip files) : http://www.mediafire.com/?uq5tg9o7nli04b2 and http://www.mediafire.com/?b5i571br0x07c38
CWM flashable package :
- Superuser CWM flashable package : http://downloads.noshufou.netdna-cdn.com/superuser/Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed.zip or Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed.zip in attachments (But you will be unable to update with the 3.2 RC3 build, use 3.1.3 one if you want)
- My own kernel (flashable via CWM) : UnknownzD_Kernel_with_superuser.zip (with superuser, good for first time install) and UnknownzD_Kernel.zip in the attachments
- Patched Samsung install script (the one which failed to run) : new_sec_csc.zip in the attachments
Odin v3.07 : Odin307.zip in the attachments
Credits go to Adam77Root for his CWM image and someone(!?) who has uploaded odin 3.07 to xda forum. Will try to check his name later.
Short change log about my kernel (The longer one will get posted when I start another thread for it) :
4 IO scheduler added
Voodoo sound patch added
Full fp calculation based on hardware fp opcode only (which should makes the device consumes less energy while providing the same performance level)
MMC erase function tootally disabled
Default.prop get modified to increase the performance
Based on ICS 3.x kernel src code released by Samsung
If you gonna use my kernel, please make sure that you have efs_backup.img backed up safely after flashing my kernel package, as it contains your device's IEMI info, which can save you from future disaster as you can use the unbrick tool with it. You can backup the efs_backup.img by :
1. Flash my kernel in CWM
2. Mount and storage -> Mount USB devices
3. Copy the efs_backup.img from the sdcard to your own computer (it is vital for you as you can use the unbrick tool later)

Now I am stuck @ finding a proper file host to upload the files.

waiting for this!

Rooted?
BusyBox?
Init.d?

Sorry as mediafire.com only allows upload 200MB per file, I need to take some time to split the files into multiple zip, please wait for about 15 minutes.

You can root it on your own with superuser zip file. And busybox binary is not yet dropped into /sbin/ as I believe it comprise the system integrity back in GB kernel. Init.d will be supported in near feature. All the things that I changed is just inside the kernel and recovery and provide a safe envrionment for user to continue to flash their own desired kernel. Nothing more.
For kernel development, I will make a separate thread in dev section later.
Sorry I have to postpone the release as I have to repack everything with the nordic release (XXLQ9) now.

Ok, I'm sure you know I asked just for general information. I supposed your answer yet
Anyway, I'm sure its a good job. With the new version (nordic) I suggest you to upload releases to dropbox our something easier. Anybody could make a mirror in other servers later :thumbup:

Yea I just saw the PM, it is really useful for me tbh. Thanks for your help.

Okay after many hours of testing, I am happy to release the ICS XXLQ9 package with GB kernel and CWM 6 (based on the one posted by Adam77Root) that should be able to let you flash your own kernel after flashing it. Download links will be up shortly.

So after 5~6 times of srs bricking, I finally get it working correctly after working overnight.

Ok I have released the ROM already, please try to use it if you know how to use the unbrick tool. This is because I want to ensure that the package can be flashed safely in Odin v3.x instead of v1.x series.

2. flash CWM 5.x via ODIN 1.8
3. Flash ardatdat kernel via CWM
4. Now only i will wipe data thru CWM...
is this ok ?? i am concerned with Austrian firmware currently..rooting is not possible in nordic ROM due to system partition space...
can this be dangerous ??

Rooting Nordic ROM is quite easy, that is if you are on GB (if you are on ICS you will have zero free space in system space), so when you are on GB you need CWM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1839900 use CWM to wipe data and format system.
Flash Nordic ROM (Odin), than CWM, go to http://androidsu.com/superuser/ and download binary only (ARM), now use CWM to install SU binary.
You need SU app from Play Store and you are rooted.

Nice work! Thanks!

Basically the things you mentioned above are included in the package / guide already. Tbh this should not be dangerous. But I want more people to test it first because last time when I released the GB kernel, a lot of people complained about the things that do not occur on my phone.
oh btw about the zero free space in system space, I believe it is just a bug in the filesystem. You can fix it easily by using e2fsck, which is actually included in my kernel script.

This is just explanation about staying stock. Your work and effort is well above this. Thanks in name of all flash addicts

So after many times of tests, I guess it is safe to use the build already, just make sure you have everything backed up before updating (actually you should do this for any fimrnware update). If you have found any problem, just report the problem here. I will repack every stock firmware following the same method until Samsung acknowledge that the MMC_CAP_ERASE is removed from stock kernel.
If you have found your device bricked after using any ICS update (for example, unable to flash the device any more via odin protocol), please let me know via pm please so that I can guide you to fix your phone in IRC.

When you are updating the ROM from GB to ICS better to wipe data or else you face some Force Closes and other issues....

The wiping cache part is actually a part of odin download process. Everytime when you flash a new firmware in odin, the odin bootloader will invoke some scripts stored in /cache within recovery mode, and then wipe out these scripts / the whole partition as they are no longer needed.
However the wiping /data part is actually an essential part of firmware update and you should do it on your own if you are using CWM based firmware. This is because if you flash a firmware via odin, the data partition gets wiped after the device rebooted.
tbh it should be safe if you didn't wipe the /cache partition but not for the /data partition. Just some usls scripts and T9DB left behind in /cache. But incompatible binaries may still stays in /data if you didn't wipe it.

yes there is another way if you have recovery installed. Just tell us what ROM you are on (your 4.1.2 ROM name) and try to find out if you have CWM recovery(volume up+home+power). Let us know this this then we will proceed.
@ASMI1 :He is on a 4.1.2 OS means he have a custom ROM and re-partioning is not mandatory because he is comming for a CM10 base.

Thanks for your reply

If you like the jelly bean 4.1.2 (CM10) by Dhiru, surely you'll like the CM10.1 version.
It is in here. Review it for more details.
You will need the latest CM10.1 in Dhiru1602's downloads and this gapps..
Download both on the SD card. Then, basically this will be the instructions to install it:
Code:
Upgrading from previous versions of CM10
1. Reboot to Recovery.
2. Select the ROM zip from your SD Card and flash.
3. Flash Google Apps.
4. Reboot
PD: By the way, you can use the Reboot -> Reboot to recovery option you've mentioned.

try to remove the rom zip from sdcard and copy it again from pc, this worked for me when I tried to install slim CM 7 by TheFrankenstain (here the thread if you wanted to try it..rom link here)(You rom is awesome TheFrankenstain...thank you)
If this didn't work then try to redownload the rom (don't use your phone to download roms...bad idea).
to make sure rom's archive is not corrupted, check you rom MD5 sum (Dev-Host server provide the correct MD5)
HashCheck is a good tool for this.

BE CAREFUL...You can only update to CM10.1 rom (or any other rom based on CM10.1) only if you have CM10 Alpha4 rom (or any other rom based on CM10 Alpha4)
But in your case (you have CM10 A3), you have to follow the whole guide mentioned in the second post.
This is what LoLaTiOn said:
How to install
Warning only for lasted base CM10 Alpha4
if older base CM10 Alpha3 Full KPE please !!!
- Wip Factory
- Format/system format/emmc
- Flash Carbon and gapps
- Reboot recovery
- Wipe cache and dalvik cache
Flash first clean for mandatory starting
On CM10 Alpha 3 and all other basic Froyo, Gingerbread, ICS, JB

thread here.
If you are worried about your data make full backup using recovery and you can restore your apps or your full rom at any time...clean Install is always recommended over updating from previous versions.
BTW...I think full Nandroid restore is dangerous due to different partitioning in ICS/JB roms so it's recommended always to reparation using odin and install full firmware again.
Also, any custom rom is rooted and deodexed and has CWM recovery pre-installed.
sorry for my bad english

it means that if you have a base older to CM10 Alpha 3 then you should proceed with full KPE,,,
so IF YOUR CURRENT ROM IS ON CM10 Alpha 3 I would suggest just flash CM10 Alpha4 base ROM by Dhiru then,
-Wipe Factory
- Format/system format/emmc
- Flash Carbon and gapps
- Reboot recovery
- Wipe cache and dalvik cache

2. Select the ROM zip from your SD Card and flash.

here where to download CM10 A4 and google apps(20121011 for CyanogenMod 10.0.x) (thanks to master dhiru1602).
BTW, in the past we used to install XXKPE stock rom (pit, bootloader, PDA, Phone, and CSC)(this is what meant by full KPE) and then install DDLF2 as PDA in download mod. But now full DDLF2 is out so we don't need XXKPE anymore to make clean install, you just install full DDLF2 (pit, bootloader, PDA, Phone, and CSC) the same way you install XXKPE and then proceed with installing your custom rom.
it is recommended to make clean install always before installing any custom rom (CM or rom based on CM) to prevent any issue (installing custom rom over another custom rom may cause some problems like lags and no signal issue...etc) just make clean install.
I advise you to upgrade only if, for example; you want to update to REMICS rom and you have previous version of REMICS rom or you want to update to carbon rom and you have previous version of carbon rom or you want to update to CM10.1 A8 rom and you have previous version of CM10.1 A7 rom...Do you get my point?

[RECOVERY LOCKED/NE1] Safestrap Recovery v4.11 B01 [2019 Sep 12]

VERIZON SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 (D2VZW)
PLEASE READ READ READENTIRE OP
"ALL MAJOR WORK DONE BY HASHCODE SO GO GIVE HIM SOM THANKS.DO NOT POST ANY BUG OR ISSUE COUSED BY THIS RECOVERY IN ORIGINAL THREAD BY HASHCODE, POST HERE AND I WILL HELP YOU."
CURRENT PROJECT STATUS:
BETA v4.11-B01 (NE1/KK)
WHAT IS SAFESTRAP?
Safestrap is a Bootstrap / Recovery for locked bootloader phones. The goal is to avoid touching your primary system (I'll call this "stock" system) and only flash or make large changes to another place on your phone that Safestrap treats as a "2nd system" (in this case, it's a series of virtual ROM slots located on the internal emmc area: "/sdcard"). Once installed, you will see a "Splashscreen" giving you the option to hit "menu" to enter recovery. The recovery portion of Safestrap is now based on TWRP 2.6.1.0 (a touch based recovery) and you can perform .zip installs, backups and restores here. The additional features I've added to TWRP are mostly located under the "Boot Options" menu:
Here you can create virtual ROM-slots (3-4 on the S3 due to partition size and internal space) for flashing ROMs. NOTE: The bigger you make the /data partition the less room you will have to make other ROM-slots.
You can activate a new ROM-slot by choosing the slot you wish to make active and then selecting the "Activate" button. Once active, you will see the "rom-slot#" up in the top of the screen shown in green. If you make the "stock" ROM active, then you can see it in the top shown in red.
Once a ROM-slot is active, all actions you would normally perform using TWRP are directed to that ROM-slot. For example, "Install" to flash a .zip, backup and restore.
HOW DO I INSTALL SAFESTRAP?
Requirement: Root
[Safestrap pre V4.07] Requirement: busybox. Grab "Busybox" from the Play Store and run the installer.
Once installed, open up the Safestrap application, Agree to the disclaimer that you won't try to sue me and hunt me down with a rifle if you manage to break your phone..
Then use the "Install Recovery" button. You should see the current version down in the lower left corner of the window. And the "Status:" should say "Installed" when you're done.
From there you can reboot and you *should* see a new splash screen during the boot up. While this is showing you can enter Safestrap Recovery using the [ menu ] button.
INSTALL VIDEO by DMX: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RZI...e_gdata_player
HOW DO I ENTER RECOVERY?
During each reboot a splashscreen will be displayed showing whether the device is running a rom-slot or on the "Stock ROM".
Press the button shown on the screen to either enter "RECOVERY" or "CONTINUE" booting (or the hard button underneath each option).
HOW DO I UPGRADE SAFESTRAP?
Push the APK up to your sdcard.
Boot back into the "stock" rom-slot.
Open your old Safestrap app and use the "Uninstall Recovery" button
Browse to where you pushed the APK
Click on it and install like normal
Once installed, open the APK, Grant SU access, Use the "Install Recovery" button.
KNOWN ISSUES:
- Sometimes the installation doesn't work correctly. If you don't see the splashscreen after a rebooting. Install Safestrap again. (DEBUGGING THIS AS I GET TIME)
- Busybox is now required for the Safestrap APK to work correctly

Use archikitchen I had built one and it booted.
Clone archikitchen repo for last changes.
You need ubuntu or virtual on windows.
deodexe first test to know if its boot.
Then add root, bbx, and debloat with archi only. You can remove apk manualy.
Dont include the boot.img! Not neccessary
build with bbe command.

[Q] help with custom ROM installation process of CM7 a9

I would like to install CM7 alpha9 MTD from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2309390
The process I imagine is as following:
- backup things (I'm not sure how exactly this part works, if you know how to backup application data please help)
- flash the https://cm7-i5800.googlecode.com/files/CM7_Kernel_MTD_OC1Ghz.tar kernel with ODIN without repartitioning (as PDA I'm guessing, unless there's an option for "kernel" in which case it's kernel, which one is it? )
- boot to recovery
- format /system, /data, /preload
- install the ZIP of the ROM: https://cm7-i5800.googlecode.com/files/CM7.2.0-GT-I5800_Alpha9_MTD_CWM.zip
- install the ZIP of the google apps for 2.3.7: http://www.devfiles.co/download/wBDwQIzb/gapps-gb-20110828-newtalk-signed.zip
- install SuperSU ? is this necessary with CM? Although I have doubts, as it was never mentioned unlike for Omni, so I guess not for this one
- reboot phone
- enjoy CM7
So basically I'm asking, am I missing out on anything basic but important that would result in bricking? And
- how to backup application data to be retrieved after flashing
- is the kernel a "PDA" or is there another thingy for it in Odin that needs be done?
- do you need to install any previous versions of CM7 for this MTD thing to work?
- does the kernel provide a recovery with which this ROM can be installed?
If you managed to get to the end, thank you - And thanks in advance for the help

to install CM7 alpha 9 MTD you first need to be running CM7 alpha 9, which you flash with ODIN http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14240212&postcount=1
then follow the instructions in the previous reply from sakenas to update to CM7 alpha 9 MTD using clockwork mod recovery.
only flash the 1ghz kernel after you have updated to CM7 alpha9 MTD.
you flash the kernel with ODIN using the one package method, exactly the same way you will have flashed CM7 alpha 9.
