Ragnarokx is there anyway for us to manually turn on the Setup Wizard? I noticed while downloading the rom from devs thread that the Setup Wizard is NOT enabled on first boot. Mammon waiting on more requests to add it in.
Waiting on answer before I install (don't want to manually reinstall over 30 apps! LOL)
I put the zip on my SD card, went to clockwork and did a backup of my current data. Wiped all stuff (data, cache) and flashed the new zip. It installed no problem. Noticed all my stuff didn't get installed with the new rom (a bit obvious when i thought about it). So I rebooted into recovery and did a restore of my file I backed up before the new ROM.
It seemed it restored my entire old ROM and data. Can I get some dummy help for this? I want the new ROM but all my old craps still. What did I do wrong? This is only my 2nd attempt at flashing a ROM
Anybody get mammons ext4 mod to work? I'm gonna try it later today just wondering what the feedback is on it? For those who did it any sped increase that you notice with this? I noticed a good bit when I did the ext4 to my phone. Just wondering if mammons ext4mod you can notice the doped difference. Thanks

I was using ClockworkMod RecoveryWhat program do you use for Back up/Restore?
really? maybe something went wrong then in my install because I was going from Bonsai 1.0.4 to Bonsai 1.1.2. Hmm, well I just hope I can make the phone work again.
I was able to get it into download mode now but I'm getting and error in Odin
<ID:0/007> Added!!
<ID:0/007> Odin v.3 engine (ID:7)..
<ID:0/007> Can't open the specified file. (Line: 1224)
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
Not sure what file that line is in. It's the same files I used a week ago to use Odin to restore my phone back to normal. I'm trying different USB ports and I have the factory, Samsung USB cord that I am using also.
I'm using the DK28 file. sph-d700-dk28-8g-rel.tar. Should I be using the DK17 file then? everything else was downloaded from the first post in the [How to] Factory Restore thread. I'll try with the DK17... well that file isn't there anymore.
I'm going to try this method Odin Stock Flashing.
Aye aye aye.
Update: Seems like I'm getting a DK18 file from the above link.
I was using ClockworkMod Recovery
However, I ran into a bad problem this afternoon.
I installed the new bonsai, I installed the ext4 deal, reflashed the new bonsai and everything worked great. However, I was w/out all of my data from as I learned it you have to use the recovery to get your data back onto the phone.
I tried to recover my data using the advanced restore option and that is where I realized I was screwed. It would not restore any of the data because I assume it was backed up under the Samsung file system and I now have the ext4 file system and it cannot find the folders to put the data. Bummer
I then tried to run a full restore of the old bonsai with my data and it gave me similar errors. I now cannot get out of the bootup ClockworkMod Recovery green screen. I can't get my phone into download mode to run Odin and my eye has begun to twitch from being w/out using my phone for the past 8 hours![]()
Sorry to hear that btgoodlin. Before I update my phone I'm trying to get as much information as possible so I don't screw up any of my data. That's why I'm looking for correct ways of doing things but the information is so scattered and overwhelming that it makes it hard for me to put together.
