        mash12 You can reflash a different one if you want. All you need to flash is the super.bin.

        manyhill I have not gotten around to working on it yet.

                [Login to see the link]
                [Login to see the link]
                I would like if people tested this version for me to make sure it works properly and there are no loopholes.

                This for Roms with Apps.
                Special thanks to [Login to see the link] for all his work!
                Thank you again to [Login to see the link] and [Login to see the link] .
                I included [Login to see the link] apps: Hebkey, App Launcher, and his fixed Calendar.
                [Login to see the link] Shortcut to home screen app. Dial: *#*#123#*#* to get to home screen
                Includes: Siddursfard, AndDaaven, SmartZmanim, Smartlist, and Tehilim.
                Also updated Waze, more zoomed out and shows full addresses when searching.
                Added more backend changes and updates.

                    darth thanks when are you doing this also for the other roms? thanks

                      Cseal89 I'm not too familiar with macs, but I'd say look up all the prerequisites
                      darth listed, and look them all up for mac. In theory, it should work with some research.
                      *Brains are also required on a mac.

                            Cseal89 You can use a mac.

                            Just get fastboot on your mac, and make sure you have python. Then, to boot to fastboot, you can use [Login to see the link]. But it's harder to use because you must manually declare a port number. Example:

                            python mtk-bootseq.py FASTBOOT COM4

                            But because MAC is based off linux, the ports wont be COMPorts, it will probably be something like this: /dev/tty.usbmodem14200. But I have no clue because I never used Mac. Anything I know about linux is from using android.


                            And [Login to see the link] made a version of the python script that checks the ports automatically and boots to fastboot, but I think it only works on windows. (link: [Login to see the link])



                            I can't say for sure, but I think Mac's might come preinstalled with MTK Drivers or at least enough drivers to access the preloader, so I don't think you'll need to worry

                                                Last time I updated the rom, all the info on my phone(calls, texts) were erased. any way to make sure it keeps all my info when I update again? Thanks again!

                                                  Can anyone with the prerequisites “brains” create a video tutorial from beginning to end to install a kosher rom, as well as to just do an upgrade? I managed to kosher my phone using darth rom, but now when I’m trying to update… complete no go… seems my brains may have been koshered along the way…. I believe I’m following all the steps, installing all the prerequisites…. But nothing.

                                                    when i update a rom, do i have to do steps 1-8 or i can just download the rom i want and flash the super.bin?
