I've never flashed back to stock before in cwm. So i just want to make sure there isn't any steps I'm not aware of, or anything that needs to be renamed. Do you have to change mounts/unmount from what there currently set at. Does the cwm back up zip need to be renamed to anything.
These are the steps I think I have to do. If someone can verify or correct me. Will be thanked accordingly
1. Boot into recovery
2. Wipe system
3. Factory reset
4. Flash nandroid back up
5. Wipe cache & devieh (whatever its called lol)
6. Reboot, wait 10 mins
7. Profit?

Does anyone know where I can get a stock recovery image for a nexus s i9020a?
I tried the file from the large sticky post with all the rooms but it only gives me an error in clockwork mod recovery when I try to restore to that file.
I also tried installing that file by manually selecting the zip but that just put it in a boot loop and deleted cwr. I put cwr back on and that is where I am at now. Anyone know why the file isn't working or can link me to a nandroid for i9020a that will work with clockwork recovery?
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance
follow this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033269
wipe data and cache with cwm, flash the rom, flash the stock recovery image, and lock the bootloader. you might have to update to 2.3.4 manually though, but everything is returned to stock
You say flash the rom then flash the stock recovery image. What is the first rom I'm flashing?
And a step by step:
Go to clm, wipe data,
wipe catch
(what do you mean by flash rom)
Install the stock firmware
Is this ALL done in clockwork?

I can't give you exact instructions cause i'm relatively new to this so you'll have to read a guide or something. i'm pretty sure that it's all explained in the thread that I linked you to.
here's what I did, but you might want to double check.
-open clockwork recovery (you might have to re-flash it through fastboot)
-wipe data, and then wipe cache
-put the zip downloaded from the thread that I linked you to on the root of the sd card
-open clockwork recovery again
-install zip from sd > let me choose zip (or something) > let the zip install
-flash the stock recovery image through fastboot
-lock the bootloader through fastboot
done. then just download the OTA update for 2.3.4 and you'll be good as new
The very first ROM I tried to flash was a version of CarbonRom. I was unsuccessful, as i got the installation aborted message. I then tried a couple of other lesser know ones, with the same luck. Lastly I tried CM 10.1, and with that, i had success. It was the only one that would work so far. Yesterday, I downloaded DU 4.2.2, and A new nightly version of Carbon (Specifically for my phone) With no luck of installation. Am i doing something wrong with these? Is there a different method of flashing i'm missing?
what is the procedure you take to install?
I usually go this route:
1) Boot into whatever recovery you have
2) Wipe Cache/Davlik
3) Install custom ROM
4) run a factory reset
5) Reboot

I have Philz custom recovery which based on cwm version 6.0.3.7 which when you tap wipe data you will then have the option to clean install for new ROM.

Sorry for not replying earlier, i never got a notification. I'm using the most recent version of CWM. My usual order is :
1. Boot into recovery
2. Factory Reset
3. Clear Cache Partition
4. Wipe Dalvik
5. Format /system
6. Mount /system
7. Flash new ROM

well we now have 3 custom recoveries to choose from I like the newer one since I can install a new ROM in fewer steps.
i would do a factory reset after you flash your rom too, can't hurt.
of course on updating the same ROM, I only Wipe Cache/Davlik and that's it.
Bad download? Does the md5 match?
after making sure you wiped everything make sure the download itself was proper I am running it flawless right now
Hello, This may seem like a nooby question but i'd just like to ask how would i flash this? http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-j-e/development/rom-evolution-t2824883 The developer provided no steps, How would i flash this Do i need to revert to anything or any of that
Here's How..
If you're running on a custom ROM, (do a backup first) it is highly recommended to flash the ICS firmware (11.0.A.7.5), since you stand the risk of losing baseband.
After that, follow the general steps to install a rom:
1> Place .zip file on SD card
2> Flash a recovery through FastBoot mode
3> Do a Wipe Data/Factory Reset, followed by wiping Cache and then Advanced--> Wipe Dalvik Cache
4> Install the .zip file
5> Do the Factory Reset & Wiping Caches again, if you wish
6> Reboot.
Good day!
Please hit Thanks if it helped!
SuperMan-Rom V1.8.1 Aroma - AP will not boot (integrity verification failed)
On My S7 edge, thought I'd give it another go at trying to root since this rom claims to be almost stock with an option to get rid of all the samsung rubbish (like s-voice) that you don't use ever.
Followed all the steps to root, ON STOCK OS, entered developer mode, allowed OEM, allowed USB debugging, turn off verify installs by USB abd. Now It seems the phone is prepped and ready to go.
Flashed TWRP with latest ODIN 3.11, made a backup of stock OS, back in download mode and flashed required bootloader and modem (BL and CP), boot again into recovery to flash AP (SuperMan-Rom_SM-G93XF_V1.8.1.zip). Went through all the process and it seems fine until 1st boot.
***Every try is showing "Verification Failed, Unable to restart your device. The Integrity verification has failed. You need to reset your device to factory default settings. This will erase all your data."***
Have I Done something wrong to be showing this error every time????
I had the same error message. The cause was that my device was encrypted. TWRP can't handle encryption on the S7 yet. Reboot into TWRP and look at the logs. If it says it couldn't mount /data, then this is probably the same issue I had.
To fix it, I restored the backup OS from TWRP, made a backup of all apps and data to external SD using Titanium Backup and wiped the encrypted partition in TWRP (which removes the encryption and all data). There may be better ways, but this one worked for me.
@Davebnly You need to take backup of the Internal Storage data and then do a wipe using TWRP, Since TWRP cannot handle the Samsung's Encryption the only way to bypass this is by formatting again. This is already mentioned in the Official TWRP Installation post here.
I have this same error after flashing a custom ROM. I did not take a backup of the old stock ROM as it's a new phone and I didn't think I needed to!
Can anyone tell me, if I flash the stock ROM will it let me into the device again?
Is there anyway to wipe the encrypted drive without installing stock ROM?
*UPDATE: I just logged into recovery and did a factory reset and it loaded the custom ROM. Not as lengthy a solution as I expected!

If you have TWRP, try to find correct FULL firmware(must be android 5 or higher) from here http://hwmt.ru/hwmtsite/huawei-firmware-finder/
If you find it, make sure the zip has META-INF folder and UPDATE.APP, if there are both -->
1. Put zip into sd-card
2. Boot to TWRP
3. Wipe data, system, cache, dalvik cache
4. Install zip
5. Go to main TWRP menu --> choose reboot --> reboot recovery
(It will boot to stock recovery)
6. Wipe data/ Factory reset
7. Now it should boot
TIP:
It might not need to be exactly correct firmware, because p8lite and few other kirini 620 devices roms should work on it too.
did you fix your device?
