Guest razzmataz1478 Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 So i guess when you do reboot system it goes straight back into recovery? What does it say when you try to install a rom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sid8001 Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 it aborts installation of v2b zip how would i leave cwm as reboot does go back to cwm, is there a file on sd card i can install from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sid8001 Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 tried restore but it couldnt open directory as no files found, would it be wise for me to stop trying all these options, guess it might be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sid8001 Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 tried taking sd card out but still boots into cwm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest razzmataz1478 Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 By the sounds of it you have no idea how to tpt. Put your SD card in a card reader and unzip v2b to the root of your SD card. There should be an image folder on your sd card. Also make sure you have a ROM on your sd card. Put your sd card in the phone and hold down power menu and volume+. You will boot into clockwork and now you have TPTed and should be able to install a rom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sid8001 Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 thanks your right i have no idea, just got fed up with orangestuff so when got replacement i thought id have a go. have un zippednthe v2b into its own folder on the sdcard, is that correct. i then put it back but still no files, what am i doing wrong. i thought the v2b was the rom, guess not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Redstarr1 Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 www.modaco.com/topic/349541-faq-rooting-for-beginners-updated-26-02-12/ Read the first post, it's got all the information you need. Sorry that the url is not a linked, I'm on my phone right now. Also, get another rom than the one from that site, choose one from this forum. I'd recommend Skatie, it's really novice-proof.
