[Captivate Android Development] chuby007:
Real Time Rom Change from Rc4 to Rc5 going down to standard rom play by play, I have all the files so I'll just write down what I'm doing along with the time :D

I'm working AND logging this.....

2:06 AM gonna turn on the phone

2:10 AM Titanium backup started gonna back up 271 apps ( doing full backup again )

2:11 AM gonna start a wifi backup of some pictures and videos I took over the last few days ( I don't want to loose them ) using wifi android manager

2:13 pictures synced, now the videos, it takes a long time always

2:16 titanium backup completed

2:18 going to move the backup to my pc using my regular cable... (339 mb being transfered to my pc )

2:20 Transfer done

2:20 video sync complete

2:20 checking videos and pictures on PC ( just to be safe)

2:23 3-4 important videos did not transfer, gonna do a manual transfer...

2:25 starting manual transfer of 1.37 gb of videos... ( yeah I use this puppy a lot )

2:26 Data backup done !

2:27 Dailing dial *2767*3855# to do a Hard reset

2:28 factory data reset started....

2:28 factory data reset done, restarting phone

2:30 restarted to original paragon RC4 (love the green background ) :D

2:31 restaring in download mode to set up original rom ( form here is the real deal.. let's see how long it takes )

2:32 odin started... downloading original rom...

2:33 the download did not start.. restarting odin to see what's up

2:35 restarting phone a weird icon Phone yellow warning signal appears... gonna see what it is ( first time )

2:41 found the answer on XDA developers: What you need to do is make sure your phone is off. Open Odin. Attach the phone to your PC. Hold down and press power and it will boot into downloading mode. ODIN MUST BE OPEN! ( rom currently getting uploaded )

2:42 stock rom installed... restarting... ( I hate the AT&T start screen )

2:44 stock rom up, 2.1, looking at buddies now... kinda miss that app :rolleyes:

2:45 looking at the Daily Briefing widget... I really miss you

2:45 connecting to pc to root it...

2:46 uploading root update.zip

2:47 rebooting to root it

2:49 stubby fingers.. ok Reinstall packages... phone restarting.. rooted..

2:49 rebooting now rooted...

2:50 phone rebooted ( this stock is slow but reboots fast I guess it's cause I have no software installed in it )

2:51 Usb mounted gonna copy clockwork update.zip and paragon to the phone

2:53 both are copied... restarting to recovery mode again

2:54 selecting re-install packages but it did not see update.zip in there so I'm restarting to get usb mode again..

2:56 disk re-mounted to usb

3:00 just being a bit curious checking the data of *#*#4636#*#* because my stock rom seems to work better at detecting my home network

3:01 same with *#301279# writing down some data to compare later

3:06 performing a small speed test...

3:09 not fair cause I started looking at the modem stuff

3:13 clockwork recovery install in progress.. done

3:13 rebooting

3:14 rebooted into clockwork recovery... ( I remove the battery for ding faster reboots )

3:15 choosing paragon to be installed.. installing... ( got stuck at finding update package.. rebooting )

3:16 while it reboots I think, I had to log all of this THIS time when it has been just not smooth, normally I do it much faster.. oh well

3:18 waiting for clockwork to enter... my stubby fingers DO NOT help to press the buttons really

3:22 paragon is getting installed :D

3:22 people are gonna be like man you suck at installing a rom but heck it works at the end :D

3:23 paragon RC5 install done.. rebooting

3:25 clockwork is reformating.. I told it yes with factory reset without backup...

3:25 Paragon startscreen... is here :D

3:26 paragon RC5 is installed and on the mainscreen..
