I hate it when I take a screenshot and the volume bar comes up.

I have always wondered why is it that people tell me iOS looks better. I definitely am more attracted to the Help theme of Android and I find iOS to overwhelming with whites...

[Off-topic] icenight89:
this won't help ur current situation but get a power off widget for your home screen and get a ROM that has volume wake as an option. I've used these methods to avoid using the power button on all the android phones I've owned.

I've been terrified of premature power button failure ever since I had my palm tx (lol) 8 years ago, so I take precautions to prevent it

Haha funny you say that. My mom asked earlier why I was so mad and so I proceeded to show her how when I insert my battery, it just keeps vibrating instead of booting up. As luck would have it, just like when you try to show anybody something interesting, there was no vibration. So I hit the power button, and viola! Booted up. And the first thing I said to her was, "Okay time to enable wake with volume rocker and any other widget/toggle to lock and restart the phone."

I got a friend who just called me and he is trying to build his first rom. So he is using android kitchen and he set the roms wipe status to wipe the internal sd. For what i dont know but he did. Anyway he tries flashing the rom from his internal sd and right in the middle the phone shuts off. It will come back on but he says it a green android man with a blue thing spinning in his stomach. Ok my questions are

1. Did he wipe the rom off of his internal sd in mid flash?

2. What can he do to get his phone back?
[Off-topic] xcrazydx:
1 yes

2 boot into recovery and put the Rom on external. Or restore a backup

[Off-topic] garydv2002:
Thats kinda what I thought he did but ive never been that ignorant to set a rom to flash from a place your telling it to wipe so I wasn't sure. He dont have a external sd yet so ill either let him use mine for a second if he comes by or tell him to get familiar with odin real fast. He is damn lucky he didn't brick it....

[Off-topic] T.J. Bender:
They're both excellent. It's a matter of how you like your UI to look. Try both out for a few days/flashes. Nothing to lose by doing so.
[Off-topic] garydv2002:
Yeah they both work great but what made me switch to twrp was the blobs folder that cwm does with its backups. Just takes up to much room for me....
[Off-topic] hechoen:
No blobs here. lol You just have to set the backup format to tar. Mine was set to dup as default on the version I'm running. Man I hated those blobs. Switched it to tar and no more blobs. sk8t's changed it in the current recovery to use tar as the default.

All in all though they are both very solid recoveries.
[Off-topic] garydv2002:
I haven't used cwm in a while but does cwm flash tar files? If so then it should be able to flash firmware files from sammobile. Damn if cwm will do that now then why in the world did I buy mobile odin???? Lol
[Off-topic] hechoen:
Yep. It back them up as tar then restores them. Now you have me really curious. I just looked at the odin tar for UCLF6 and the files match what my CWM backup has. I'm really tempted to pull the recovery.img and modem.bin out of the stock tar and rezip then flash. I'll hold off for a bit though. I'm sure others have tried this. lol

EDIT: Changed img. to .bin in bold because I'm a moron. lol
[Off-topic] icenight89:
cwm files with extention .img are just raw dd dumps of the partitions, I don't see why they wouldn't be interchangeable, intact, they should be
[Off-topic] hechoen:
I know. I just don't want the stock recovery or the stock modem. Have you ever tried it? Flashing an stock Odin tar through CWM?? I don't really see a reason you would need(or want) to but I'm really curious here.

[Off-topic] garydv2002:
I would hate to be the one to give you advice and it so happen to brick you. If its not zipped you might just try restoring it as you would a backup. I think if it dont work it will fail to restore or just get a bootloop but I dont think it will brick it. The only thing ive seen other than kies brick a phone is flashing the wrong firmware file. Just be sure you have a backup you can restore. Ill tell you if this works ill probably go back to cwm. I will definitely be impressed. ..
[Off-topic] hechoen:
Yeah. I was gonna just pull the cwm backup file and swap out what I want and then replace it. Chooses restore. Not to worried about bricking. Odin and me go way back. Either way it's on hold for now. Just got sucked into Far Cry 3. lol

Nothing wrong with odin at all. Now kies sux and I refuse to use it. Ill wait an extra week if I have to for firmware to hit sammobile before I use kies.

I have mobile odin on my s3 and its been flawless. Chainfire hit a homer with it. Awesome awesome app.

After a week ive finally got it to boot but the multwindow dont work. So tonight I figured out im gonna have to decompile some of the framework jars and some apks and make some changes so thats gonna take way more time than I thought. But ill try it.

On the kindle fire 2 we have "fastboot mode" and fastboot exe instead of Odin. I LOVE ODIN!

If you kill your recovery you need a special "factory cable" just to get into fastboot. Trust me on this- odin is way better.. Has a functional gui and you can get into download mode without a special cable.

Samsung phones and products are wonderfully easy to root compared to other devices. Amazon and Motorola on the other hand love to lock the crap out of the bootloader.

I love my rocket and an glad to have my kf2 4.2.1 cm10.1 device... Even if i bricked it in the first week and had to buy a fast boot cable :p

The price we pay to be bleeding edge

Sweet it's seems some others use Heimdall as well. Heimdall runs fine on windows. The trick is to make sure that you uninstall all samsung drivers from the USB port your gonna use it on. It installs its own drivers via a utility called zadig.

So my question to the community is do you think that there would be any use for a Heimdall one-click? Say stock ICS with a custom recovery?? I've used them for my other phone and then can be super handy. It's pretty much a noob proof way to recover from a soft-brick. If people think that it would get used I'd be happy to put one together.
[Off-topic] prbassplayer:
I know heimdall world on windows, just troublesome at times with the drivers. I'm lazy lol. As for one clicks, I have a love hate thing with them. Although convenient, as I've said I'm lazy, and noob proof (or close to it) I feel it cripples the newbs. Just my 2 cents.
