joshm 818 Report post Posted February 26, 2013 no one is moving dear actually due to that emmc bug which bricks the S2 , we now use a tweaked EL29 kernel which has a CWM recovery ( which is safe ) to flash anything . once flashing is done we flash the stock kernel which has stock recovery to go back to our booting ROM 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

joshm 818 Report post Posted March 1, 2013 Yes Praveen ji , the rooted restore file will wipe everything , i suggest if you are having any problems with your current ROM then better use the rooted restore after making a nandroid and /or backing up your apps and data No Data Rooted version will not wipe your user installed apps and your data , as in , sms , contacts , logs , gmail and settings and stuff. - recommended if your current rom is working alright and you dont want to lose any of your current settings and data , TO ALL : plz try and make a nandroid before flashing any smallest of small file Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

amitroutray 384 Report post Posted March 1, 2013 (edited) Thank you Josh. I have been waiting for it from two days after you given me the links. I must say this ROM is super smooth and battery life is awesome. after 18 hour it is only consume 30% Guys go for the full wipe version for lag free uses. Continue to follow the instructions to run the Odin one-click executable, boot your phone into Download (Odin) Mode, connect it to your PC and run the flashing package. You want to make sure a yellow box pops up on the Odin screen that has a "COM" number to know your phone has successfully connected to Odin. Procedure : 1.. Download the one click ODIN TAR of GB08 [mentioned above by Joshm] check the MD5 [most important] 2.. Extract the file. use 7Zip to extract the one click odin file , right click > 7Zip > extract > and double click to open the ODIN window 3.. Turn Off Phone 4.. Hit and press Vol down and power button together for 5 seconds > then hit volume up to get in download mode 5.. Connect phone with PC > it ll show as a yellow com port in ODIN window 6.. Hit start. Some Screenshots may Help...!!! Video Walk through : This video covers how to ROOT your phone to EL29, but the process is the same for all of the above. The important thing is that it will show you how to use the Odin One-Click. again thanx to Joshm for the Updates.
