Nitewolf,

To get back to a ICS ROM I need to Fastboot correct? When i do, will Fastboot Recognize the choice from JB back to ICS...Now that I figured out the Keys/Toggles to get into Fastboot...

Its Bubba


If you're on a JB based rom now and want to go back to the stock side or an ICS rom you may have in a SS slot then go to AP Fastboot and choose ICS mode in dual boot utility... Reboot into SS and choose your ICS rom, activate it.

Morning Nitewolf,

Thanks by the way for your help.

You need your computer with the dual boot utility to flash between ICS and JB modes.

Thanks my friend...some how I knew you say that...

Hey, wouldn't it be cool if you could take one of those Slots to toggle between JB & ICS ROMs with a click of a button... then we could by pass the computer...most slots, you can use 2 maybe 3 slots B-cuz of the megs to create the slot

That would be very convenient indeed. Or as with a computer with 2 operating systems on it. Boot up... choose your OS. I'm not a dev so I don't know if that's possible with our phones. It would require partitioning the primary to hold 2 bootloaders.

And, Fastboot mode will only work when NOT in Mass Storage mode....


I've had mine set both ways... it doesn't matter.

Question,
There already floating 1 Bootloader now, what's the big deal with 2... were on the secondary system anyways so not to touch Stock...2 OS choices would be Awesome
..but changing it thru our phones is the best option

One more before I'm accused of hijacking the thread: I not only remember the color version, I sold the first Trash-80 (original model) in the Utica Region while I worked at the Shack part-time and was in high school. *HAH*
Now I hold in my hand more computing power than existed in the whole world back then!
