So I'm going to try to flash axiom annihilated to my brothers phone, he is currently running eclipse v 2.2 which is 2.3.4. But I'm not sure how to get safe side, he only has bootstrap. Any ideas or help? Do I have to be on a specific rom before I can flash it?

You are on gingerbread. Axiom is a ICS rom, your first step would be to go back to 905 stock. Step two is to install one of the ICS leaks after installing leak you will need to regain root access. Then download the safestrap apk 2.11 is the latest version. After installing safestrap you will have a safe and unsafe side. Once you have completed all the above steps. You will be able to flash the axiom rom.

I just bought a captivate. I rooted and unlocked it ( now t- mobile) . When I go to rom manager to make a recovery it doesn't recognize my device. Only gives option for i9000, epic, fascinate. What do I need to do to make a backup/ recovery?

Unfortunately there isn't an official clockworkmod recovery for the captivate. You'll need to either flash a kernel with cwm already embedded, or manually load up cwm on your SD card. What stock ROM are you on atm?

Sorry you sorta wrong on some things. There isn't official CWM for GB or Froyo. But there is for Eclair. Sounds like he is on GB at the moment. You are correct about having to flash a kernel with CWM in it.
I stand corrected...but yes unless your still on eclair or restore back to eclair, there isn't an official cwm

Yea, I am on GB 2.3.5 baseband UCKK4. I also have a vibrant.I am really surprised at how different the two phones are. I would like to put a custom rom on the cappy. What rom would you suggest? Kernel?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
Suggesting ROMs ins't allow because you will most likely get arguing. Flash Corn Kernel and try out some custom stock ROMs if you don't know what you're doing. If you have an idea. I suggest ANY of the ICS ROMs
I would like a stable ICS rom. PM me with any suggestions.

Going through files in root browser I found a clockwork mod file. Also a zip vcremoveboot-CWM.zip. Not sure what it is? Ideas....

vcremoveboot is the revert zip for voltage control, in case you have unstable settings applied at boot.
Is there a way to flash stock gingerbread deodexed onto the system partition using safestrap? I want to do some cheesecaking but it doesn't work on ICS.
I know this is a strange request.

I don't believe this will work because safestrap ROMs still run on the stock kernel. If you have ICS running on your unsafe side then GB will not work on your safe side.

Yeah, I tried it. Any way to get kexec running an old kernel so I can boot the old GB stock ROM

Okay, so I'm pretty much a noob and I'm not as comfortable modding my bionic as I am my kindle fire. I thought that I couldn't flash an ICS ROM to my bionic in Safestrap unless I am running one of the leaks or wait for ota ICS on my "unsafe" partition. But I recently read a thread that made it sound like I could flash an ICS ROM to my "safe" partition as long as I'm running .905 on my unsafe partition. Is this true or will I brick my bionic if I attempt. Currently running stock GB .905 on unsafe partition and eclipse 3.0 on safe partition. Could someone that understands these things please let me know and explain? Is it a kernel thing? I'm itching for some ICS but would rather not touch my "unsafe partition if I don't have to. Thanks

You can easily flash the leaks (.232, etc.) that are semi-official ICS releases without being rooted or anything else. To do safestrapping, just look through the dev section or google it. It's pretty easy. I safestrapped a rom on my bionic yesterday, no issues...
Thanks for the reply. Still not quite ready to flash one of the leaks to my stock partition yet. Probably going to wait for the elusive ota update unless I get impatient. Thanks again.

I flashed my Droid Bionic with Android 4.0.4 and so far it is running well. No change in battery life and my phone is not rooted.

I am currently running Eclipse 2.2m system 902. Do I have to flash back to stock rom to get the 905. Also so do I have to do that before going to one of the ICS leaks.

FBZ to 902 then upgrade OTA to 905. Flash the ICS 232 leak and root.

Hi Everyone!
I'm kinda having problems going back to stock ics from stable cm9.
I wanted to get back to stock just so I can try speedmod k3-13.
Whenever I flash stock ics through pc odin, I get stocked in the blinking Samsung logo, and my note never boots up. I am now back to cm9 and everything is ok.
Any thoughts on what steps I should undertake to get it working!?
Thanks in advance!

Why you are using kernel to get back to gb???no need to do.if you are doing this for going back to custom gb rom then i would suggest you to first flash a pre-rooted gb rom from dr.ketan's guide.try to flash it through pc-odin.

I wasn't using speedmod to get back to gb. I wanted to get back to STOCK ICS as mentioned in my first post because I wanted to use speedmod.

You need root to install speed mod kernel so quickest way is to flash a pre rooted rom.

Sorry to bother you guys. I dont have the d4. My buddy does. Can't seem to flash a Rom. New to safe strap.
He is on an old moto update. 2.3 build. He put safe strap v1 on his phone and tried to flash a few roms. Can't get any to boot.
Is this due to the recovery? I told him try the ics recovery. Dont know if he should. He installed the gb version cuz he is on gb.
Any input is appreciated.

I am guessing this is because all of the newer ROM builds are built to run off of the stock ICS kernel. Since he is still on GB (and thus running a GB kernel) the current ROMs are not going to work. I would suggest he fastboot ICS so he is on the most current stock build, install safestrap 3.05 and go from there.
