Converting .rfs to .ext4 format for (ddkq8 stock rom with stock kernel)!!?? - Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am using rooted odexed ddkq8 stock rom with stock kernel..
I want to convert to ext4 so that I can do nandroid backups/restore easily..
Please help me with this..

You can create a nandroid backup of stock odexed rom in rfs without problem.
To restore it you need to be in a rfs format system, which can be easily achieved with odin.
To convert your stock to ext4 i think the easiest is to flash cf-root and run the 'ext4 manager' app.

So its not possible with stock kernel..isn't it?

Are you sure? My phone can only boot when I flash a custom rom. It only happens when I restore my nandroid of the stock rom.

if you can't enter to the cwm recovery, you should use odin

nandroid backup of stock rom wont work as it is in rfs format..
cwm dont support formating partion to rfs..
it would work only if u convert partion to ext4 before backup..
but custom roms will work as they wud b in ext4 format

Hell no! Flash stock rom with odin, root, install cwm recovery and you can recover any stock rom nandroid backup. This is the way to go if you try a custom rom, don't like it, and want to restore the nandroid backup of your previous stock rom.

Did you have repartition checked or unchecked? Needs to be unchecked when flashing kernels. If i remember correctly, i used cm10 to get to jb. All i had to do flash the ROM twice in recovery. First time was to get CWM 6 loaded, then the actual ROM flashed no issues, kernel included
It was unchecked.. and I was flashing semaphore kernel specifically because it would root my cappy.

If u r back on Stock KK4, then the KK4 Corn Kernel has CWM Recovery and u can get Root within that recovery as well. I recommend version 7.0A http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18233847

Any specific reason why I would flash version 7.0A instead of 7.01 <-- (What im going to flash, cause I couldn't find download for 7.0A) or newer versions like 7.06?
7.0A is just the baseline version...and really all u need if u r just gonna flash a custom rom..but any of the corn kernels will do.
Links are in the OP. (or should be ?? ----they r workin for me)

Alright, thanks. Nope, I see all of the other links except for version 7.0A
Ok, so I flashed corn kernel version 7.01.. everything worked fine.. but how do i get root access now?
There is an option in the cwm recovery...maybe under advanced options...don't remember exactly, but it is there.

yaa you can not use this kernel while using link2sd..
but
PSN kernel contain Memory Mod, so you dont need Link2sd anymore after installing this kernel but make sure to remove Link2sd before installing this kernel...
you can increase your internal memory as your need by partitioning your memory card as EXT4 and there is no limitation like Link2sd...
you can use this kernel with stock GB 2.3.6 DDKQ8 or other custom rom...

Help me! ASAP

Yesterday i had to rooting my tab and then i founded one trick that i think its a lot easier. Im using CF-Root, then i used to flash with odin. No problem appear after that, but the problem coming after i had to reboot my tab; some sound glitch occur on samsung bootanim, and the last big problem for me is, now i cant turn on my tab again it stuck at bootanim. I know how to fix that problem; just flashing back to stock rom. But, i dont want to do that because i have a ton of games and app who will be disappear if im going to flashing back to stock.
So, anyway that can fix my problem without back to stock? Can someone give me a link about stock or custom gb(2.3.3) kernel? Maybe it can solve my problem. Please someone. Help me

Do you have the exact rom version that you were running? Maybe someone has the Rom, and extracting the kernel is possible.

I repacked the JQ1 euro rom's kernel in a tar
http://goo.gl/Bpmcr
try flash that in Odin like when you did CF-root
Then boot to the stock recovery and do a wipe cache (not sure of stock recovery has that..?)
anyway, try and see.
Else you probably want a restock.
If eventually you want to restock, just follow my signature to Overcome links.

you may be out of option but to restock.
Using CF-root was always a hit and miss.
that is why I recommend Overcome method every time.

No. Dont do that.
Just flash overcome kernel using Odin.
Then use the cwm recovery ti flash overcome rom 4.1
Then it is s GB rom with root.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Yap. Thats what i want to do. So.. just for sure bcause i dont want to brick my tab.
1. Flash overcome kernel via odin
2. Flash overcome rom via cwm
3. Finish
That is right?

[Q] new on mini

My friend has mini and i dont see an official jelly bean on mini. So his device is on gb 2.3.6 and i want to flash pacman rom so is it ok if i flash directly from 2.3.6 using cwm/stock tecovery?
Sent from my GT-I8160 using xda app-developers app
you can't flash a custom rom with stock recovery so your gonna have to flash CWM first but you can't do that until you have root.
I see. So gb 2.3.6 then root then get cwm then flash pacman thru cwm then all is good?

No, you only need to do the "common" way to flash ROM.
