Questions moving from Cyanogen to Super D

I haven't been able to find a guide of sorts for changing from Cyanogen 4.2.14.1 to a stable version of Super D. I know from searching that it requires the Danger SPL, which I do not have currently. If someone could point me in the right direction, I would really appreciate it Please don't flame me

Flash the radio in my sig. Then Haykuro's SPL in my sig.
The End.
Saw you already have the newest radio, just flash the spl then a rom if you are sure of the radio version.

radio and spl are most important and always make sure u do the radio first

Thanks for your replies! So, I assume I can flash both of these using Cyan's Recovery and 'apply any zip from sd card', etc or do I need to flash another recovery instead of cyan's. Do I have to wipe the device first or can I simply flash both of these followed by Super D? Also, I see in reading that some say to wipe my ext. I don't see that as an option in Cyan's Recovery. How would I go about that and if I do it, will I lose everything on my sd card? Right now I have a fat32, ext2, and linux-swap as my partitions.

The guide is in the Super D thread.

Ok, in reading...this is what I plan to do:
Download recovery-RA-dream-v1.5.2.img and rename to recovery.img
Download ota-radio-2_22_19_26I.zip
Download Danger SPL spl-signed.zip
Flash RA recovery, reboot
[Alt+W] Wipe
[Alt+2] Wipe SD:ext partition : Wipe the ext partition on your sdcard
Flash ota-radio-2_22_19_26I.zip
Flash spl-signed.zip
Flash Super D
1. Have I missed any steps?
2. If I Wipe SD ext partition, will I lose all the data on my SD Card??? Also, will it mean I have to repartition it?
Thanks!

Wiping ext will only delete the files on the ext partition, not the fat32. It also doesn't remove the partition, only the data.
You don't need to flash the radio again if the information in your sig is correct. (verify in about phone in settings)
I'm pretty sure you have to choose flash update.zip for the spl to flash properly. Remember, flashing the SPL deletes all the data from your phone so if you forget to boot into recovery after flashing it it will appear stuck at the G1 screen because there are no boot files yet.

Thanks evilkorn!! Ok. I just finished flashing the new RA Recovery and it went like butter. I reverified my radio and it's good to go. So, here are my final questions.
Before flashing the danger spl, do I have to wipe? Or can I skip it?
Based on your instructions, I will will rename the Danger SPL spl-signed.zip to "update.zip" and flash it from recovery.
Can I just remain in console at that point and flash Super D then do the final boot so I don't get stuck at the G1 screen?

Reinstall market place?

while trying to partition my sd card i managed to wipe all of my apps and apparently the system file for the android marketplace. Is there anyway I can reinstall the marketplace? I'm running Cyanogen 4.2.15 and i have a 2gb sd card
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Never mind the market place is back. I did a wipe and attempted to reformat my memory card only to find out it was corrupted.

well if your phone is rooted then well you have to do is..
[Download]
1. Defanged 83 - http://dx.infernix.n...se_defanged.zip
2. Cyanogen Rom 4.2.15.1 - http://n0rp.chemlab....15.1-signed.zip
[Put them into the root of your SDcard]
1. Turn off Phone
2. Start phone into recovery (Home+End Button)
3. Wipe /Factory Wipe
4. Flash Defanged 83 & then flash Cyanogen rom 4.2.15.1
5. Reboot (first option on the recovery)
once google thing comes on skipp it

Flashing trouble

Okay, i've been having a problem where my device gets stuck at the g1 screen after i flash ANY rom, i've given each rom i've attempted to flash up to 10 minutes each, i have to resort to a battery pull and nan restore to get my phone working again, i've tried flashing roms on two different cards, both with the same horrible end. I've tried reformatting, repairing partition, and wipe wipe wipeing, but nothing seems to work. Any ideas?
my specs:
OS: im running cyanogen's donut (which i have a nan backup of)
SD: 4gb class 6
Radio: latest
SPL: Danger
Recovery: Amon_RA's
Ext3: 1000mb
swap: 32mb

what rom are you tryna flash ill help you out.?
for example if you want the new cm508 t4 then u gotta download the following in the listed order:
1. download & install the newest radio for your device
2. download & install the danger( aka deathspl )\
3. download & install the latest version of cyanogen for your device.
that easy bro. HERE is a gide a friend of mine put together for me and its acurate and current. although there are nomore file links so u have to search google or xda search for the needed files.
good luck.

Requested to be moved to Q&A because this is NOT Development.

okay i've been trying to flash any non ram hack donut and any eclair, none of them make it pass the g1 screen, i've tried everything i have all the correct specs and use the correct procedures but nothing works
i've tired
the latest superD
the latest superE
the stable cyan Eclair
Chomatic Eclair latest
and even though i have it backed up and when
i restore it it works, the cyanogen donut, which i
cannot wipe and flash

Why can't you wipe?
Do a fresh nandroid/bart backup of your current working system.
Backup your SDCARD FAT partition to your computer.
Reformat your SDCARD (completely, no ext partition or swap partition)
Make sure you have Amon_Ra 1.7.0 recovery installed
Restart your device in recovery.
Wipe data and dalvik-cache.
Repartition your sdcard
Convert ext2 to ext3
Convert ext3 to ext4 (optional)
Mount SDCARD from Recovery onto your computer.
Re-download your the rom that you want to install and gapps if applicable and place them on the root of your sdcard.
Safely remove the device from your computer
Unmount the SDCARD from the phone (may need a reboot)
Flash your desired rom (don't reboot yet)
Find ddms.bat in the tools folder with the AndroidSDK and run it.
Click logcat
Reboot your device and let it SIT and watch the logcat.
If it seems to stop for a long period of time highlight the lines at the bottom and save the file to your desktop. Open it to confirm that you have the log in your text file.
Upload it to pastebin and post the link in this thread for others to help you further.

[Q]Queries about flashing ROM

Hello I am newbie here.I know there is a thread for how to instal CWM recovery & how to flash custom roms, but I find that method very confusing . I have upgraded my phone to Gingerbead 2.3.6 using ODIN player (Build number:- DDKQ8). I have already rooted my phone using that zip file method. Now I want to install CWM recovery v5.0.2.6. Here are my questions.
1. Do I need to install CWM recovery v 4.0.0.9 first & then need to update it to 5.0.2.6 ? If so, how to do that?
2. After installing CWM, I want to backup my current OS,which is an official GB 2.3.6 update provided by Samsung for my country.How to backup it?
3.I still use 2GB sd card,so how much space is needed in my sd as well as internal memory while installing custom rom?
4.After installing new rom will my data stored in sd card (app backup files,music files,pictures etc.) get erased?
5.Please suggest me a good custom rom which has:- great battery backup,good interface, exciting features, fast response etc.)
Thanks in advance!

WellCome..
1) No, you can directly install 5.0.2.6..
2) In recovery You will get options for backup and restore..this will take the backup of your current rom and you can restore at any time through it..
3) No need to make any free space..if you are not using any ext partition..
4) Not At all..it wont touch your sd card data..
5) It depends on You,Which Rom you like..read their thread for more info of the rom..

Sorry for asking u again, I am going to flash Apocalypse final 9.7.2012 ROMhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1700749 , but I have few questions.The installation procedure is as follows:-
Installation Procedure - Step 1 (rom)
1. boot into CWM5 Recovery
2. wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik
3. format cache/data/system/sd-ext
4. MOUNT DATA
5. flash APOCALYPSE-17.06.12
5. reboot and complete the setup wizard
What is mount data? I can't see that option in CWM 5 or is it suppossed to be mount/data ?
also it's a barebone ROM, so from where i can find essential apps like sms, mms, camera? also does bareback ROM contain google apps like gmail,gmaps,navigation etc. ?
Thanks in advance!

As you can see the step 17 is mount data. Why did you reboot system? Maybe the installation aborted because you didnt mount data & mount system as abhi922 instructed. If you didnt found mount data or mount system option in cwm, maybe youre using old cwm. Try using cwm from mindcr rom thread.
