[Q] Can I flash directly from 2.3.6(rooted) to CM11? - Samsung Galaxy SL i9003

Hello, everyone.
Trying to update my girlfriends SL today, so I was just wondering - if I can flash directly from 2.3.6.(XWLF3) to CM11?
It's CF-rooted with CWM that comes with it.
I was reading around about this topic, and I found that in most cases people are on DDLF2(or smthin like that) build.
Is it fine, that mine's on XWLF3?
And is it okay, if I flash the .zip from internal SD, because my external card port seems not to be working?
Thank you, waiting for the answers.
Peace.
edit:Sorry, I didn't post this in CM11 thread. My bad.

1.yes 2.yes. You can flash it without problems only thing you have to keep in mind is to do all wipes required.

[Q] galaxy s2 stuck

hey everybody,
first of all, you need to know that im a noob.
today i tried installing another rom on my galaxy s2. everything went fine until i tried to find the rom on clockworksmod to get it installed. it was not there.
i placed the rom on my external sd card in stead of my internal storage. when i found out i tried restoring to a backup i had made. this failed as well. it said that android_secure.img was not found.
now when i try to boot up it stays on the galaxy s2 screen with the yellow triangle.
so basically all i can do know (to my knowledge) is boot clockwork or enter the downloading mode.
i think that there are three things i can do:
1. somehow install the miui rom from my sd card.
2. somehow get the rom onto my internal storage.
3. somehow fix the backup so i can boot my old rom(place android_secure.img in the right directory).
at this point i would prefer the third option.
do you guys have any idea on how to do any of these three options, preferably the third?
thomas
I'm a noob as well, but if you can get it into download mode, shouldn't you be able to install something like lite'ning rom into it through Odin?
Edit: now that I think about it you should also be able to flash the stock ROM into it, though I've never done that.
seems like it might work. i really don't want to completely brick my phone though, so im going to wait to see if there is another solution. thanks a lot though, that is at least something i can try. anyone got experience with this or knows another solution?
how might i do that? and where can i find the stock ROM?
I'm guessing here somewhere: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
never mind that, i tried flashing lite'ning using odin and it worked!
i now have acces to my internal storage again, so now i can continue flashing miui.
you, my friend, are a lifesaver!
thanks for the quick responses.

[Q] noob trying get redemption rom on GT-n8013

Trying to smooth out my tablet before college stats back up. My model is a gt-n8013, and i have already downloaded the files for the Redemption Rom onto the internal storage, and did the zedomax root. I am currently staring at the cwm mode, and a bit unsure of how to proceed. I read through every post of the original thread for the note 10.1 redemption rom, and tried to put my first post there, but was redirected to the Q&A. I would really appreciate if someone gave a clear-cut (for dummies, if you want to call it that) step by step on what thing to selected, in order, while in (high-on-android) CWM mode? also I am unsure if i am to use the whole downloaded file i got for the rom, or just select certain files that are specific to my GT-n8013. I did spend hours reading through every post in the original thread as well as many other things on google, but I am still a bit confused on where to go to get it right. I apologize for any inconvenience, and greatly thank all of you in advance, as you have helped me find out just how limitless things can be.
Also, I have never heard of aroma, and can't find out how to get into it on cwm...

If your in cwm first thing is to back up your stock rom to external SD.

Is there an alternative place to find espressowifi-recovery-5-18.tar.md5 other than from goo.im...
Or what could I use for an alternative,
Thanks
RESOLVED: The ODIN flash did work after I used the right tar file.
I buried this in another Q&A thread and have no replies so far. Maybe you could give me some advice.
I tried flashing one of those firmwares for 4.1.1 which was only 357 MB and it got stuck at the boot screen, It seems I had bad instructions I followed with a link to an incomplete flash file, perhaps part 1 of a 2 part download. When it flashed it last said it was updating remaining files and then went back to the recovery, When I rebooted it stuck at the recovery even after a data wipe. I tried flashing a 3113 rooted stock rom and it gives me an E:signature verification failed. I used odin to flash the 4.04 stock rom which passes, but it still freezes at the boot screen even after a data wipe. Should I try flashing CWM recovery through odin to get around the signature verification or does someone know another procedure that has worked to get back to stock 4.04 from this condition. I have seen this mentioned a couple of times in the development threads with users indicating that they got back to stock, but without details of exactly how.
The firmware I apparently partially flashed was GT-P3113_P3113UECLI4-OTA-P3113UEBLH2_XAR_374372839
Also I was not able to see if usb debugging was enabled since I could not do anything but recovery or download modes on the tablet.

Okay....
How do I get back to stock and have no root access at all. I dont mean just flash a deodexed ROM and say thats it. I want to completely recover my device (P-3110 , same as P-113 just no IR blaster) to the original settings as supplied by Samsung.I need it to be fully updateable via kies and accept OTA updates.
Thanks

Power button and the Volume button directly next to the Power button will bring you into "Recovery mode".
Power button and the Volume button furthest away will bring you into "Download mode".
To boot into "Safe mode" When the tablet is on press the power button till the reboot menu appears then press and hold the Reboot button , until you get the option to boot into safe mode. Reboot and you are good to go.
Thought I'd try this rather than a new thread.
Hi Jeramy, hopefully you have some advice.
My problem: I want to be able to install some apps on the SD card, and still use the stock 4.1.2 that I upgraded to using Kies.
What I've discovered so far:
Samsung doesn't like moving apps to SD (Link2SD for example which makes a soft link in the normal Samsung place to the SD card)
First must jailbreak
Jailbreaking uses "odin" (something to put Roms on) and a ROM
So far I've got Link2SD, and downloaded some ROMs, but there doesn't seem to be a good ROM that is basically just the stock + superuser. I do see some for France etc.
One thought I had is will this work:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1887757
Wherein they install some Zip somehow. What's the CWM do? Is it version dependent?
Anyhow, thanks I hope this makes some sense.

@Sean Seany
Thanks Sean for picking up the question. I have been shirking my duties here, and I apologize. Are you serious about your question, or are you pulling my leg. I know you have been around here much longer than I have, and have answered one of my questions already. If you are serious though, cant you just Odin back to stock with official firmware, and take the ota? This is my first Samsung so I am learning as I go. Though rooting Samsung's is so much easier than my Rezound. We have to short the board with a paperclip to achieve s off on it.
Edit, I used this to install the official from UK.(p3110) on my p3113. Complete stock. I would imagine you would do the same, just use all 3110 files.:thumbup:

P.S. I love having friends all over the world, love the alternate views of people from other nations. Mind friending me on here, even though you are leaving these threads? Big bonus of the xda world community.
@ QFX
First, sorry. I havent checked this thread today, and whenever i need something answered, i want it yesterday. It sounds to me like you haven't been in the android world too long. If you have, I mean no disrespect. So far, I have ran a few custom ROMs, but the stock experience is really smooth in my opinion. My best advice is to try a couple, and see what you like.Now to answer your questions. Clockworkmod is a custom recovery that allows you to backup your tablet in the state it is in when you make the back up. It also allows you to flash custom ROMs Like the ones you downloaded. It is a must have if you plan on rooting(jail breaking). Yes they are version specific.There are guides that will walk you through this, and it is pretty simple. If you look in the threads for cf auto root, the thread will walk you through it. After you do this, you will need to flash Clockworkmod. It is in the same threads. Look under development. Both of these files have to be flashed through odin on your computer. As soon as you flash Clockworkmod, reboot into recovery, and make a backup. This way, you can flash other ROMs, and if you want to go back, just restore your backup in Clockworkmod. I am crashing in a few, but will send you links to the files that you need tomorrow. Remember to read the guides a couple of times to make sure you understand everything before you try. After I send you the links, if you need additional help, pm me, and I will walk you through it. Good luck, and have fun

Apps2sd no longer works, but there is a script that allows you to switch your Mount points for external, and internal storage. I have a class 10 32 gig SD card that now works as my internal storage. The only thing is that you have to manually switch the files between the two at the start so the os can find what it is looking for. I will send you a link for that too.

I just updated Tab 2 7.0 P3113 to stock jellybean (not rooted), and now every time I swipe to a different screen it tells me which screen I am on. How can I turn this off?
I believe if you add something like a shortcut, then remove it, the message will go away. Let's try something easy like this first.

Hey stark. Here is a Odin flashable zip that will give you root, Clockworkmod, and has Odin in it as well. Download it, unzip it on your PC, and place the cf root file somewhere easily accessible. Install Odin, then follow the guide. Pm me if you need any more help.

I don't think that Google did this. My friend has a Galaxy II running 4.2.1 (custom ROM CM10) and can move apps to the external SD card.
I've tried rooting the my tab and installing the latest stable CM10 ROM but I still don't get the option.

Hi Jeremy,
I just rooted my 3113 and I've lost my external sd card when looking in my files. It is however showing that my internal storage is 29.7G. Obviously I've gone and loused the thing up somehow.. After exhaustively searching the fourms, installing "ntfs mounter" and "ntfssd," trying to mount from CW, and trying different cards - I'm more than a little fustrated. I just realized that the movies that I had on the internal memory are not showing either. Any help for a "12:00 Flasher: would be appreciated
I've got CW and I used "gtab2_jellybean_rooter"
@ caniknow it sounds like you flashed the partition swap that swaps the external, and internal memory. Try powering off, and removing ad card, then reboot. See if it can't see internal at all. That will give me some idea of what is going on. I highly recommend cf auto root for jellybean. Super simple, and works without issues.
@ rains try cf autoroot.

Ok, I did as you suggested
After rebooting without the card: Memory shows 4.49GB
Movies stored on internal have returned
My Files show correct list again
YAY!!! It's not broken!
Ok, now with the 32G card (formatted NTFS - forgot to mention that) reinstalled, the memory has reverted to 29.7GB and showing everything (yes, everything from internal memory; though it is showing that there are memory using applications, file and such, though different amounts) has disappeared once more. GRRR
Tried NtfsSd to mount card: nodda. Tried Ntfs Mounter again: nodda Tried powering down and loading CW, inserting the card and mounting there: nodda Tried touching my left ear whilst standing on one foot in 10" of snow and holding the power button, then swiping left, left, down, uppercut, triangle, square.... once again, nothing.
Back to without the card and rebooting. Everything normal. ?????? I'm now at a total loss.
All I want is to seemlessly transfer my +12GB movies from my media storage to the tab and watch them in the car using the bluetooth interface for the sound. I need the NTFS to do this without chopping the movie into little bits that ruins the sound - and so began this quest which is turning out to be epic. Please help me slay the monster that is my lack of programming knowledge.

[ROM REQUEST] Alcatel One Touch T10 Stock ROM (Dear God Please!)

Hi XDA. I have a really goddamn huge problem. My One Touch T10 needs a stock ROM. I installed a JK CM10 Pascal2 oc1104 20121203 kernel with Oma Odys Loox JB CM10 4.1.2 v1.2 ROM. (Sorry for full name, just in case.) This ROM. Sucks. Seriously, it comes with a bunch of stuff that I don't need or don't work right. For example, Nova Launcher cuts off some things. It's horrible! The camera doesn't work either! Sorry for the rambling. I just really want this fixed. So if anyone out there has a One Touch T10, Stock ROM, please back it up and send it. Also, I googled it, and found nothing, just the Alcatel phones. Well then, thanks XDA, and I really hope someone has a backup. Thanks!
EDIT: Also, I can no longer download things to internal memory, so I had to go out and buy a 16GB SD card. I can't copy stuff over from USB. I tried all the drivers recommended, including the Alcatel ones. It shows as a Loox (FFFFFFFF-) but when I go into it in My PC, it shows nothing. I tried USB Mass Storage, MTP, and PTP. It doesn't show up with the Connect Mass Storage thing either. Thanks!
If in wrong thread, please move it, or I'll do it or something. Thank you.

Help getting out of a sticky flash situation

Hello all,
Been a long time dweller and avid reader here. I fell off for a while with my t700. Made the mistake of not checking which TWRP I was on before flashing. So, though everything appeared to
go okay, the OS didn't load. So then I realized my mistake (I was on TWRP 2.6.3-that3) and figured the way around it might be to flash an older ROM, then update TWRP, then go from there. So
I flashed CROMi- XENOGEN 4.7.0. And it also went into a never ending load. I think because I can still get into recovery there is a way out of this? A simple-ish way? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Sorry to get into this issue with such a stupid newb mistake.

p.s. I should mention the ROM I was trying to flash was ZOMBI POP 5.1.1

You should be up running with the new ROM of your choice.... Good lucks,....:fingers-crossed:
Thank you for the help. With a little reading and a couple of failed attempts I got the new TWRP on there. And now it doesn't see the external SD card.....which is where the ROM is. Any ideas about that? I double
checked the card to make sure it didn't get fried. It seems to be fine. And the old TWRP saw the contents just fine. If there isn't a way to activate that, can I somehow transfer the ROM to internal memory instead? Although I hate the idea of not being able to use the SD card for flashing.
