[Q] Install Carbon using Philz? - Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G

I was able to get Philz installed using Heimdall in Ubuntu, but the Carbon page here at the forums states to use TWRP to install. Can I just install Carbon using Philz?

I recommend you to use TWRP, its the last version and work fine. Using philz perhaps you get issues, I don't try it

I went back and flashed again, but this time I compiled Heimdall from source instead of using the PPA, and TWRP loaded right up. Added the zips and Carbon is loading, but I have to head out the door and hopefully everything will be good when I get back.
Thanks!

Flash it with fastboot, of course. There are plenty of posts here and on the net in general that explain how.
or you could use flashimagegui. its a paid app in the play store, & its also posted here by the dev

Or install the ROM Manager app, which can flash CWM for you.

Are you using CWM or ROM Manager? If the answer is CWM, did you use ROM Manager or NVflash?
Also, have you tried a different ROM, or just the same one?

Basically what the first reply was, but wanted to add in so you know,
If you used ROM Manager to do basically anything, you need to NVFlash CWM and than always use CWM to flash anything. ROM Manager does whats called a fake flash of CWM.
And than yes, which ROM(s)?

Try flashing a different ROM, like stock, and see if the problem persists

trying that now....
well i tried flashing stock and it works but when i rebooted after the LG boot Screen the screen is all black and the backlight just keeps flashing on and off... any suggestions?
Search the G2x development forum for Batch Cleanup Tool. Run that, then flash a stock ROM. Boot that ROM once, then try a custom ROM.

I downloaded the cleanup batch and ran it.... proceeded to install the stock ROM and still stuck on a black screen with the backlight flashing on and off. I think I've tried everything to fix it and nothing works....

Which stock ROM are you installing? Have you tried downloading it again, to make sure it's not a bad download?
Also which CWM are you using? if you're using touch, rev ert back to an older version

It doesn't. ROM manager supports the Blaze now and it has the touch version in there for it.

try jt's kernel kernel in cwm before you flash jb - try once or twice..just for s/g
OK, question I pulled up the log from cwm a few times and it kept saying something something about mtd which I know is a partition arrangement it is possible that it's just not re writing positions correctly? If so I probably need to learn how to check md5 checksum

FIXED IT, looks like it just needed bootloaders to be reflashed on ics right now
deffinately wouldnt have been able to do it without qkster (for hiemdall and suggestions), and rwaters(for looking through logs and giving suggestion) THX GUYS

Please give me help and advice!

I've been having issues with CWM and Philz Recovery. CWM backs up not always fails to restore /data and Philz doesn't even backup /Data and stops the processes. TWRP does back up. And restores perfectly.
Are these known issues?
Also what's the best kernel for stock KitKat?
Sent from my XT1032 using XDA Free mobile app
I don't know how to fix this issues with the recoveries...
Btw, if u want performance, flash the faux123 kernel, but if u want battery saving, flash the Aero Kernel.
I'm using Aero right now, and it's the best in my opinion
