Root help needed w/ DL30 to DJ05

[djfrost]

here's what happened:

i flashed SuperClean DL30. things were working ok...but i was having issues with the market...i couldnt download apps. i also could flash .zips. for example, the microbes live wallpaper, new cwr.

so i thought i would go back to my DJ05 SuperClean...so i went to ROM manager...and booted my last nandroid backup...it ran fine...and then i phone reboot...and was stuck on the Samsung title screen for like 25 minutes...so i pulled the battery...and now i cant even get into recovery...

HELP!!!

what are my options?

sounds like it

 

[djfrost]

whats the process?

so i have been able to get into Samsungs recovery screen...then it turns into CWR. so i've wiped...then reflashed SuperClean DJ05...but nothing...its still stuck @ the Samsung screen...

ok...so how do i ODIN? what files do i need?

does that mean i'm going to unroot my phone? will i get dumped back into DI01?

 

[djfrost]

alright...as i type my phone is getting refreshed to stock form...via Odin...

i guess i'll get myself back to where i was at later today...bummer...

so just to be clear, once you get on DL30...theres no way to get back down to DJ05? can someone please claify?

Yes you can. You merely have to go into clockwork wipe data and flash your DJ05 rom and then a DJ05 kernel

fyi market was down last night probably because they were adding the web store. it had nothing to do with DL30. It affected all phones I believe.

you can always get back...odin is always available...i havent tried reverting to a 2.1 backup...id assume its possible...but you would need to get back to old cwr to do so...so odin might be involved...honestly i look at an odin trip back to a backup as a 10 minute excercise..its not a big deal

so it worked...i'm back on...but now i cant access recovery...i downloaded ROM manager and flashed CWR...when i try to get in to recovery it gives me an error. something about not being able to get the signature. and its not in CWR recovery...its in samsungs recovery screen...

so i'm rooted...with ROM manager...and CWR flashed...but i cant flash other ROMs...

how do i fix this one?

 

[djfrost]

i get this error when i try to back up my ROM or when i try to install zip from SD. below is the screen i get...

have you done a search yet ? I'm pretty sure there's lots of threads with the sig error. I had it once but forgot what i did to get rid of it.

You need to Odin in the updated CWR.

what are you back on? if its dl09...theres that sneaky locked out of recovery issue

best bet? odin the all in one dio1 file...let it go..when it reboots power off and odin old old cwr....power off.....3 button recovery in cwr....flash a voodoo5 kernel (assuming u were on red recovery backups) reboot

power off, 3 button recovery to red recovery...restore your backup...reboot...go back and enable voodoo at some point too

I'm on OI01.

How do I flash the old old CWR through Odin? What files?

just download the clockrecovery.tar from this thread http://androidforums.com/fascinate-...in-clockwork-restore-file-download-links.html

and you need the all in one dio1 to wipe everything clear

wow...it finally worked...i pushed the old CWR .tar via Odin PDA...and i've got green CWR...

now to flash SuperClean DJ05...

so do we know if reverting back to anything prior to DL30 will cause these problems? is there a work around (other than odin)?

previously if you didnt flash new cwr you could usually mess around and restore from 2.2 to a 2.1 backup....but the tradeoff was you couldnt back froyo up....while it might be possible to not go the odin root to restore a 2.1 backup someone would have to try and get it to work i suppose.

personally i look at 2.1 as something in my rear-view mirror
