[Q] Can someone help a Noob in need? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can someone guide me to a site that I can download a stock rom zip file? I need it to restore my phone back to factory. Running cm7 right now with a back up that wont restore. Any help will be much appreciated and thanks in advance.

What phone do you have?

Thanks for you're response was beginning to think I'd get no help. I have a lg-e739 or lg my touch 4g. Stick ROM I'd gingerbread 2.3.4. Same kernel as cm7 if I'm not mistaken. I'm a noob

Additionally, should I have wiped my data/cache and dalvik cache when installing a new ROM?

It seems you flashed the wrong Kernel. Go to http://galaxys2root.com/ and follow the steps to install the Zedomax kernel if you want to overclock your phone. Make sure you are looking at the AT&T Galaxy S2 section!

[Q] Happy year!!! one question about flashing CM9

Hey guys:
I'm now running Galnetmiui with siyahkernel which comes with CWM recovery V5.5.0.4, Can I flash codeworkx's cm9 directly via CWM? In his thread..he just states ''Make sure you're running a proper working CWM like the one from CM7''. And after that, Can I restore my Backup using CWM?
I'm sorry if I repeat the question!
Thanks in advance
Yes, that should work fine.

gingerblur to ics cm9...is it safe to go directly?

yea i wanna know if this can work...obviosly with full wipe on cwm before hand or is there something that i may have to do also.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
Yep. Just full wipe before.

It depends on the process you use and what CM9 based ROM you choose. If you format /system, and you use a non-Aroma .zip, you need to flash twice in a row. More help and info can be found in the thread of the ROM you choose.
ok im using this method and files from this vid

How to install cm9 on sgs2 gingerbread?

Just a question. There are numerous sites on the internet that tells you how to install cm9 on sgs2. Others say that you dont need to flash a leaked ics. Others need you to install . Please help thanks.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Go by the guide on CM9 website. I played it safe and flashed the tar version via PDA in odin. Once that's installed you can then update to latest nightly. I've never had any issues with that process. All the best.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
So sir did you install first a leaked ics or not? Thanks
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Erm not sure I'm a bit of a flasher- holic. More than likely I was on a 4.0.4 based custom rom. If you do full wipes and format system then flash via odin I'm sure you will be fine as that's what I did. Please read CM9 guide though.

I went from stock GB to CM9 nightly without any problem
Well done mate

I dont have a computer....i need a flashable one through recovery
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Saurom is your only flashable GB build in this section..
Check the super thread at the top of the general section, and scroll down to the roms.
Read "carefully"....before flashing...
Saurom is a loaded version of 2.3.6 with many extras ....I like it ...g
Hmmm. Do you happen to have a backup of your stock ROM (gingerbread). From before you flashed a custom ROM? If so then all you need is the stock kernel and modem. I have a flash able zip for the stock recovery I can give you, but no longer have the kernel and modem on hand.

Well, your only other option is trying Saurom. Its about the only GB ROM you can flash. Otherwise you'll need to find a computer you can use to use Odin and follow the steps in the link I posted above.
