Need some guidance... - Motorola Photon 4G

Currently running CM9 on my Photon, would like to go back to stock, have searched and havent really found to much.
Is there a guide for the simple minded among us (namely me) to go back to stock???
I have a feeling it's really simple and I am gonna feel silly for asking....heh

Boot into recovery,
hard reset X3
Reboot into rsd mode
Sbf back to stock
(you will have t to re root and unlock if you choose to after)

Cm9 isn't as cracked up as they making out to be?

It was pretty nice, but not all it's cracked up to be. A few things didnt work.
But the most annoying thing was it didnt seem to know it was on Sprint network.
It was nice, and I dont wanna crap on the hard work put into it..
It's acting kind of flakey, I wonder if re-flashing it would help, I might try that first then maybe go back to stock.....

Ive had very few issues with CM9 and ive followed it from the beginning Alpha stages.. Try a different version if you have issues. To each his own for sure some people will like others won't. I personally cant be taken away from it. Ive had VERY few network issues where it wouldn't connect and the not working items list gets smaller each day, its basically down to video camera in stock app and few other minor things. As for going back to stock if you need super detail check out QBKing77 on youtube, he has a video of exactly what to do.

I am currently running beta-0.1.0-2d-cm-9.0.0-RC0-Sunfire-KANG-signed, maybe I should just upgrade to beta-0.5.0-cm-9.0.0-RC0-sunfire-UNOFFICIAL-signed. If I do that, I pretty much follow the directions I did to flash the original correct??
Basically from about 3 minutes in on QB's tut video??

When coming from previous cm9 build just wipe system in mounts and storage and flash thr newer build onto it via clockworkmod recovery.
Sent not from your device!

I will give that a try, I tried 3 or 4 times yesterday but it would get stuck on the M duel core screen.
Restored the back up I had and it was ok then.
EDIT:
No love yet again, I am using CWM 5.0.2.7.
It stops at the M duel core tech screen and just sits there.

Did you flash twice? If you don't, it bootloops.

Do not wipe system when coming from a previous build. Wipe caches and fix permissions after you flash twice.

ICS Rom
The way i got that rom to work on my photon was to run the original rom, then go back and flash the most recent version, that worked perfectly for me!

I will give that a whirl after after work, thanks....

Finally, got it going, further reading figured out to flash the rom twice in a row, currently running 0.5.0, had to flash the CDMA fix to get the signal, running great, much smoother then the 0.1.0......
Thanks for all the help guys.....

[Q] [Q&A] About CM9 and restoring backup from CWM!!

Hey folks,
I just bought the white international SGS II and i'm loving it!
I previously had an Infuse 4g, so I am pretty experienced with flashing/backing up/ restoring...but I have questions/concerns regarding the I9100.
I am about to try out the CM9 Unstable, so I backed my current stock ROM up using CWM Manager 3.0 (I am on CF-Root 5.0) onto my Internal SD, as I do not have an external SD card.
Now, I have had bad experiences with CM7 with Infuse and ended up not being able to restore due to many problems like MD5 mismatch, different CWM version, and problems while restoring ( I think it said something like devblock??)
So I'm pretty worried about not being able to restore back to the backup i just made.
So correct me if I'm wrong folks,
1) Go into CWM, flash CM9(once? twice?), Gapps, Faceunlock,
2) Data wipe/factory reset
3) Reboot
and should I choose to restore back to the stock Rom backup,
just go into CM9's recovery and restore..?
will this method give me problems restoring? will I have different versions of CWM recovery from the one I have currently? Is there any way to check if my back up was made properly?
Thanks a lot folks! Appreciate it!
Edit: "Make sure you're already running ICS bootloader (if not, go to SamMobiles and flash XXKP2 bootloader)". Is this necessary? Cus I have seen some folks say that they've not and was fine installing CM9.
First the procedure:
1. Wipe
2. Install CyanogenMod 9
3. Reboot
4. Install CyanogenMod again
5. Install gapps and face-unlock
Worked for me every time.
Your backups should work unless there were errors while creating them.
If you want some more safety, you can create a new backup after flashing the Siyah-kernel. The latest version uses the same version of ClockWorkMod as CyanogenMod 9.
Whether you need to flash the bootloader or not, depends on whether you already have it or not. I'm running galnet-MIUI and already had the bootloader installed. I don't know how to tell if you have it.

Ok...
I did further research and found out that Nandroid backup backs up everything EXCEPT the kernel.
I'm pretty sure that CM has its own kernel...but will it be CWM 5.0.2.7(the one i made backup in.)?
If it's not, the correct steps for me to restore my nandroid back up is to
1)boot into download mode from CM9,
2) put the cf-root kernel that i used in the ODIN PDA, flash,
3) turn off phone, reboot into CWM, then restore my nandroid back up right??
Can anyone please confirm this method??
I only have this phone and I cannot risk soft-bricking or hard-bricking this beautiful device.
Thanks in advance!
Also, i made a back up in blue recovery of CWM 5.0.2.7..does that matter?

thanks for the reply,
so I must have the ICS bootloaders in order for CM9 to work?
ooo siyah kernel method... that makes it easier! haha thanks so much!
I will proceed to do that!
btw, how is CM9 working for you?
do you think you'll be able to use it as a daily driver now that NITZ is gone??
1. Afaik cwm backs the kernel up and restores it too. (afaik = 99.9% sure, in this case)
2. CyanogenMod ships with its own kernel.
3. The kernel is not cwm. ClockWorkMod is just the recovery that is integrated into the kernel. CyanogenMod 9 has cwm-recovery 5.5 (Siyah too btw)
4. You don't need to use download-mode to restore.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
You must have ICS-bootleggers. He did not say that for fun xD.
Is it suitable as daily driver for me?
Nope.avi
Why?
Accelerometer is unresponsive, so it takes forever to flip your screen.
Battery drainage is horrible.
Camera isn't working properly.
And the biggest no-go for me:
The device gets way to hot when using it.

alright,

Btw,
Flashing CM9 Zip does not flash the ICS bootloader right?
so then if I want to restore to my GB 2.3.5, would I need to flash GB bootloaders before restoring via Odin??
If the zip would flash the loaders, he wouldn't have mentioned it.
They're backwards-compatible.

If you need to make a post in the Q&A forums about flashing CM9, then you are definitely not the sort of person who should be flashing it. It is in very much a beta stage and there is a very high possibility it will **** your phone up even if you have done nothing wrong. If that happens you need to be the sort of person with enough experience to solve the problem by themselves. If you are asking questions before you've even flashed it then really, it's not for you. Use CM7, at the moment it's better than CM9 in every single way.

It's not thaaaaaaaaat bad. I mean, he won't be able to brick the device through cwm.
If he doesn't ask, he will never learn and it's always better to ask twice than to break something.

Thank you sniper =) really appreciate the support.
Ive been flashing and restoring before with my infuse 4g. Just sometimes ran into problems with restoring with diff CWM versions and stuff. This phone is very precious(expensive) so i thought i would learn it for sure before i attempted anything.. thanks anyways for sharing your opinion!

I couldnt agree more... i think people here on XDA need to stop trying to be all hot **** saying Oh you asked a question your a noob... in reality most ppl here want to ask the same question but dont because afraid of getting *****ed out... and when someone else asks... try to be badass and put the person down...
Iv used a Galaxy S and a Moto Atrix and now a S2... flashed the life out of each phone along with all kinds of stuff and mods... yet i would have wanted to ask these same questions before flashing hence googled and found this thread... So thanks to those that replied as well... i was about to flash ics till i read this and guess imma hold back now even more...
But again i think people here need to calm the hell down... a person asks a question in the thread and you call them a 'noob' and what not... a person asks a question in the Q&A section and again you tell them off... stop being such anal retentive trolls...

Most people should not flame some one as long as they show they have at least tried to look for an answer first. Yes we were all new at one time but we all learned.
Like you said you Googled and found your answer. Not that hard.
Think it's bad now. Should have seen it a few years ago. Lol clutter up the threads with questions that the answers were found with a search. You got warned. Do it twice and you went on vacation for a few days to learn how to search. So the next time you think people are being too hard. Remember it is not as hlbad as it was.
When I search for the answer, I ended up here.
are these considered ICS bootloaders? If not, when would you flash them, because they are completely unmentioned in any of the instructions or FAQs

Chainfire 3d will not work on jellybean. because all of the jellybean ROMS available are either leaked version of unofficial versions which are UNSTABLE versions. you will have to wait for the stable release of jellybean.
Those are NOT leaked versions.. google released JB sources for public .
Good thread. Was curious but thought it might of been the whole unstable thing.

Chainfire 3D will not work on JB as long as Chainfire will adjust the program, which, as I read in another threat will not happen soon as it is a lot of work (please correct me if I am wrong).
If you try to use Chainfire 3D on JB you will end up stuck on Samsung start screen.
Hence only way to use Chainfire 3D for now is use ICS.
Ics is only option as of now. What i m doing is dual booting ICS and JB. For games i boot into ics and play 9MM n nfshp n for rest things jb all the way

Hi,
just to confirm, I made an attempt to install Chainfire3D on stock JB and as christmast wrote, it ended with a nand restore.
Hi im a noob and didnt read enough into this. I got sgs3 gt_i9300 and on jellybean rooted and made the mstake of not backing up Before installing. As a result im hanging at startup.
Please can anyone help in a direction of resolving this?
Please thanks

What version of Gmail do you have on your 3d, and is it AOSP, or ICS w/Sense. And by the way, if I remember correctly, we couldn't copy and paste in GB Gmail, so there's a win and a loss in this situation.

First of all, I stand corrrected. You CAN copy and paste in the GB version of Gmail. But that's besides the point.
I am not sure why the emails from XDA are UN-clickable. Have you tried uninstalling Gmail and reinstalling it?
Have you also tried backing up everything and doing a COMPLETE wipe? Or even test a different rom? Or a stock rom if you are using a custom rom?
Just trying everything that comes to mind...

Also what you could do is do a full Nandroid backup, make sure it saves to your external sd though, then do a full wipe, and flash in MeanBean. You could even then after flashing the Rom let it boot in normal, then see if you can open links.

Yes with MeanBean you would have to update the firmware, but it is well worth it. As far as going back after you've flashed the firmware... well I was able to flash in a non JB rom just fine afterwards. The best part of MeanBean Rom, taking into account your issue, is that FAPPLE is built into the rom as well as just about every other thing you could think of!

When i have flashed Nightmare sense 1.6 via 4EXT, my phone stuck at Blue HTC Logo and vibrating every 5 seconds.
i have waited at least 15 minutes but no result.
Before i have flashed i have done , wipe cache,wipe delvik cache etc..
Bootloader version : 1.92.0002
Please Some one guide , is there anything i am missing ??
Please Help.
Install version 1.1 and stay in recovery, don't wipe anything and then, install version 1.6 over 1.1... It worked perfect for me! I had the same problem two days ago!

First off, are you positive it was on ics (4.0+)? Sounds like a common problem that happens when people try flashing a custom ics rom straight from GB. If it is for sure already on ICS, then it sounds like the kernel isnt flashing, which would be odd since you say you are s-off.
Did u try flashing another rom? You should always try flashing a different rom just to make sure if its something wrong with that specific rom or if something else is going on.
Hopefully its just something weird with the rom that doing what the guy above me said to do, will fix it

Yes, ics is pre installed when i have bought a phone. its 4.0.3 rom from t mobile.
Stuck on htc logo but still i can boot into recovery.
one strange thing is that when phone came, bootloader marked as "Locked" but still i was able to use all sim cards.
thanks.

can i rename nightmare.zip file as PG85IMG.zip and then flash ???
No. Dont do that.
There is a video on the op for that rom for a how to install guide. Follow it to a T. If that doesnt work then install a different rom.
