Just got a GT-P3110 and I am extremely unhappy with the stock ROM. I'm trying to decide which JB ROM to install and any thoughts would be appreciated.
But I also have been reading around many threads and I have some questions.
I have seen somewhere that CMR version 6.x.x.x is supposed to be for JB ROMs only, is that true? Does this mean it won't work with ICS ROMs?
Will I have to reflash CMR version 5.x.x.x before the backup of the stock ROM, I made in CMR version 5.5.0.4, can be restored?
Can I load a JB ROM with CMR version 5.x.x.x and then use Odin to install the one step CMR/root/busybox tar.md5 file? Or will I not even be able to flash a JB ROM without CMR version 6.x.x.x?
Why am I having such a hard time finding Odin-flashable versions of CMR version 6.x.x.x?

ok, so I picked up the Cappy tonight, did alot of reading,
PLEASE NOTE, I have a Rogers Galaxy S Captivate SGH-I896, On Froyo 2.2
I successfully rooted the device with superoneclick,
downloaded Rom Manager, Flashed Clockwork recovery for Galaxy S Captivate
Reboot to recovery, select re-install packages, FAILED Signature...and aborts,
What am I doing wrong here?
Is there a better method? Every guide I read said to do it with rom manager...do I need to flash the stock rogers GB with bootloaders? then retry clockwork again?
/Lost
soooooo.....
you didnt actually SEARCH for the ACTUAL ERROR MESSAGE that you got?

Rom Manager isn't needed anymore. Not once have I installed Rom Manager on my phone.
This should help you out.

Thanks thats exactly what i needed, i now have cm7 loaded up.
one question tho, while cm7 would install fine i initially tried to flash the ICS port by teamhacksung and it resulted in a bootloop, is there some step im missing? are someupdates only installable from internal sdcard?
You must be on a mtd based rom, which cm7 is, (touch wiz roms are bml based) before flashing to ics. U should be able to flash ics with no problem now.

ok will give it another shot!
Enjoy, it's quite different
Well, ics successfully flashed this time.
Only difference from my last attempt was I flashed a cm7 nightly instead of stable, also once on cm7 I flashed a newer radio as well as the glitch kernel. Dunno what had affected it before but its now running nicely on ics build 9.
Thanks for the help guys, I guess where I got hung up is where cwm resides in the kernel on this device? Where on all my htc's we simply flash cwm over the stock recovery. Anyways thanks again!

The glitch kernel is not compatible with ics, as of yet. It was over written when u flashed ics I'm pretty sure.
Well being completly new to this device was a lot of learning, I still have no idea what I did wrong initially to get stuck in bootloops, but I somehow managed to get cm7 working and then up onto ics so all is well as far as I can see now. Its a backup device for us so I'm pretty sure I will only be flashing ics as it matures. Must say the ics on the cappy is pretty far ahead in terms of usability compared to the desire z, great work here from your devs! And thanks for the pointers guys!

I am running stock jelly bean rom with air kernel and I want to get back to stock kernel. How would I do that?
Just flash your rom again, no wiping required

Ok so I just flash the last OTA update I had which was the 4.0.4 to 4.1.1 update?
This one.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1736645
No, you flash the full ROM. Not just the OTA update.
Where is the full jelly bean 4.1.1 rom? Sorry I couldnt find it.
And are you positive this process doesnt wipe that?
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
Make sure to grab the correct one. Flash with fastboot. Obviously your bootloader has to be unlocked, which I imagine is already the case.
Nothing should be lost as long as you don't wipe data.
Ah so this is what I have to do?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1572307
And yes my bootloader is unlocked.
Btw which kernel do you suppose is the closest to stock kernel? The reason why I want to do this is because I wanted to see just how does the stock kernel compare with air kernel but it seems like it isnt as simple a thing as I thought it would be to go back to stock kernel.
as i know there is no stock kernel standalone instalation package. So the only way to get back to stock kernel is to flash the whole ROM again.
For my purposes showed as the best kernel thalamus kernel.
Thanks for all the info guys. I have one more question just for future information purposes. Do you get an OTA update if you are on custom kernel?

I just re-uploaded the ROM with stock kernel on my thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1881858
That will reset your kernel to stock. Sorry I don't have a separate kernel zip to flash.
If I install my compete ROM again (its Cyanogenmod), do I have to install the Gapps again too?

Hey guys,
I used to run cm10 nightlies on my tf300 but have lately been running Jellybean Hydro. I have been dissatisfied with the performance of my tablet and want to try cm10 again now that it is in stable release. Back when I was installing Hydro I read that once I install the Jellybean stock firmware for Hydro I am stuck running roms with stock firmware or at least it will be hard to run non stock roms...?
Is it possible for me to go from my current state to cm10? Are there any extra steps I need if it's possible?
Thank you in advance for any information!
cm10 JB compatible

Back up apps with titanium backup, nand backup, full wipe recommended. Flash CM 10 Flash Gapps, reboot, restore titanium profit.
Data wipe is almost no brainer if you ask me if you're moving to different ROM
You can use titanium backup to backup your apps and data but please don't restore system apps because those can cause problems

The info provided above is good!
The info about jb stock roms relates to the bootloader. The roms we use here are either for jb or ics bootloader and in general if you maintain the correct bootloader you are good. That said, always read the op about how to install for your own safety and piece of mind unless told otherwise.
Hi All
I am new to custom roms,so have very little idea about it. I am currently using official JB leakhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2092107) on my Indian Atrix 2( Originally MB865 after the JB Update ME865) I want to update to 4.2, so can anyone please provide me a step by step guideline on how to do it. I want a stable 4.2 with most of the features. Any help is highly appreciated.:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
Thanks in advance
I suggest you try a kexec ROM and find out if you can boot it up.
If you get black screen, you gotta go to non kexec ones which have ui tear bug.
So first of all, install bmm from playstore.
Do the edits mentioned in this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2115715
MAKE A BACKUP if you want.
Then flash a kexec ROM ( like liquidsmooth, avatar, Aokp etc)
If it doesn't boot up and you get black screen then FORGET about kexec ROMs.
Fxz to stock ics ( just like you flashed jb leak via RSD , but its going to be ics fxz file)
Download non kexec one like PA, PAC or cm10.1 without kexec. Bmm again, edits, flash. Enjoy!
If you don't understand anything, ask before you do it.
You mess up stuff, it's on you.
