Im still confused about rfs and ext2 whats the difference and which is better

these are just different file system that ur phone uses. like in windows, say FAT16 and NTFS

 

[virusbetax]

Oh ok I thought they were like recovery types.

The link to the EXT/RFS Recovery/Kernels is broken !

EB-Productions - An Error Has Occurred

 

[behold_this]

yeah...thats cause he removed them. there is a new all in one (RSF/Ext) recovery posted. also the oc kernel thread has been removed.

 

[marcelo_lopez]

Ok...but there's no instructions on how to install that new all-in-one via odin ( for those of us who've never used dd)

New Recovery Posted

 

[marcelo_lopez]

So the question is......

Where did you put the cookie cutter roms ?

Are these coming out as update.zip's ?
Are they just "kernel" image files with all the (/data, /system, etc. setup inside ? )

And just so I'm clear on this....you're saying I should "nandroid rfs" the OS image I've got on the phone now, then convert to EXT2, then ( once the roms are posted ) flash using these will be possible ?

Do not nandroid. Just use the option for converting to rfs/ext. It basically uses a backup already done by BH_MAN.

i nandroided the galaxy rom and now i am having force close issues like crazy.the sound for keys and clicks dont work and all of the notification ringtones dissappeared. wierd....i also converted the rfs to ext2 and back when myphone would not boot up. guess i have to odin back to stock then galaxy

 

[psychoace]

I know this might be asking for much but can you please zip the files. I flashed the new recovery and whenever I booted the recovery it would freeze upon loading. When I load Android it's fine and runs perfectly with root and everything. So reflashed an old recovery and it works perfectly right now. I am going to try and redownload it today to make sure it wasn't a curropt file but winrar has a crc check built in with zip and rar files but not tar's. It's probably not the file that caused the issue but I would like to take that issue off the table.

What your saying is flash the new recovery, and then convert the rfs to ext2, and will my phone still work with my old rfs warheads rom that I have on the phone now after converting. What about the backup option are you saying don't make a backup because theirs already a backup once you flash the new recovery and how will I go back to my warheads rom if the converting won't let me boot into the warheads rom. Sorry for all the questions theirs not enough info about what to do once you put the new recovery on the phone.

 

[j0hnh0lmes]

No, there is only a backup of ext/rfs file system. (When you convert from rfs to ext or back it basically just pulls the backup files for that file system, ect. This is what I'm gathering from Eugenes posts. For more details please post on his forum.) Any other backups need to be made by you. If your using an older rom then you have to convert to rfs file system. Older roms only use the rfs file system (sock file system on the behold 2).
