Sent from ........ using xda premium
how do i flash stock rom with odin ?
sorry .. but just dont wrily know...
Have a look at this thread to find a rom which matches your country/carrier. There is a guide to using Odin in that thread as well. If the download links don't work, write down the name of the stock rom you want to use & search for it on Samfirmware.com & download it there.
it says near my packege
"This is still BETA firmware so don't moan if everything doesn't work. It comes with old bootloader and is non-wipe"
is it still ok to go with it ??
Which package ?
XXLPJ
and agin thanks for helpin...
That's Ok I recommend you go back to stock Gingerbread, and then have another go at ICS. XXLPJ is stock ICS, you can use it, but as the warning says, it is a beta.
I'd use a GB stock rom for your country/carrier if were in your situation.
i dont understand
what is stock Gingerbread ??
an what is GB stock ??
my carrier is orange, israel ....
which package in the guide should i use ??
GB & GingerBread are one in the same.
Choose Israel Orange stock from from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14505996&postcount=3
Use ODIN to flash
READ this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13712988&postcount=1 post for flashing with ODIN it should give you the information YOU need.
ttttttttttthhhhhhhhaaaaaannnnkkk yyoouu alll !!!!!
please if you can just show me a good rootin guide
other then :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1056334
ill be thakfull
thank yoouuu i got my phone back
o and i wanted to ask do i have to root each time i change a rom ?
do i have to root when i change karnel ?
and is changin karnel is with odin ?
realy thanks for evrything
Glad you got it sorted
When flashing other roms or kernels, follow the instructions for flashing that rom or kernel to the letter & you shouldn't have problems.
Most custom kernels (all ?) are rooted, so you don't have to root again after installing them. And most custom kernels are flashable via CWM, tho many do have Odin flashable versions. My advice would be to stick to CWM flashable versions as this is the simplest way to flash a rom or kernel.
thanks agin...
thats what is used before

I know if you make a nandroid backup with specific version of CWM recovery, you can only restore it with same version, not any other versions it will gave error. Just keep your eye on that and be careful for when you want to restore that backup.
its is WinRAR archive (.7z) , so it is 7z file , does that work with CWM ?
also if i go back to stock , the nandroid backup will be with stock recovery mod , so i think that will be ok , correct me if im wrong
any help ?
If its 7zip archive and inside is tar archive then it's not CWM flashable.

[HOW-TO] Come back from JB to GB

Welcome . New thread with tutorial how to come back from JB to GB .
First you need Odin to flash your phone . If you're here you propably have got one . I recomend 3.04 or higher or 1.86 version .
1.Connect your phone to PC with Odin Flash Mode (home+ volume down + power during start )
2.In the Odin select PIT , CSC , PDA Files from pack :
http://disk.yandex.com/public/?hash=CXISs198rZIJtpzWXood+waVEXcxGbW4T1iWMkicox0=
http://d-h.st/AZN
It's only one rom with all working files i found in the internet .
It's Rom for Russia (SEB) and will change your region code .
3. Flash
4.Welcome on GB again . For sure to the time of full release of JB .
PIT File only :
https://www.box.com/s/1e4su0r4h3n0xl5ae8r7
(You can try to flash one file rom . It's can work . Maybe . But more safe metod is using full SEB Rom )
FIRST YOU NEED TO FLASH USING SEB ROM IN POST , THEN ANY GB YOU WANT !
Q and A
1.Did I can flash any GB ROM using one file rom and the added PIT File ?
A:No , you can't . First you need reflash your phone using russian 3 file rom , after this you can do everything you want .
2. It's working ?
If you know what is Odin , how to flash and doing everything like in this how to , for sure this is working .
It contains CSPA, EFS, UMS.
What for ?
Is full GB firmware applicable?

It's for sure working . Because this rescue , me after JB flash . If you will install first this Russia ROM then you can flash Rom for your localization without problems
Using the above linked PIT together with a firmware for Europe (so starting with XX...; exactly the XXLL2) didn't bring me back to GB. Flashing worked fine, but afterwards the device had a bootloop (stopped at Samsung's logo) and booting into <3e> (Samsung's recovery OS) wasn't possible.
So I'll try with the "russian" firmware now.
how is this different form previous stock versions?
Hi friends,
Is there something you changed in the PIT files for this?
What will happen if I have JB and I take a stock UK LL2 f/w from samfirmware and flash it?
thanks in advance...

thanks....also I've just downloaded PIT creator from

Do you think it will help?
How do i create a UK ROM PIT for myself and avoid "falling into it" ?

@jeev_one
If I'm not mistaken,the pit file is the same for the entire Europe.
The problem is UK rom which does not contains all files needed.
Only Russia ROM contains all files needed to downgrade to GB.

The Problem isn't PIT File . It's universial for GB Roms . Problem is that you need to use 2 file ROM . Only one I found in the internet is this from Russia . Faster way is to install SEK Rom from first post . Then Reflash UK Rom and change Regional Code using *#272*IMEI# .

Thank you for this, will try as soon as download completes, JB is awesome but still unstable.
Edit: worked great, flashed Russian ROM first, then Polish LL8.
Notes:
- for other noobs like me, the CODE goes to PDA in ODIN
- as mentioned above, after you flash the second ROM, set the regional code by using *#272*IMEI# (generic EU is XEO I believe, it's what I had before I went to JB).
