What?
ROM = Firmware.
Do you mean kernel?

No, I want to be able to flash the ROM as you would a custom ROM from CWM
I am currently trying the dual boot function in Siyah and wanted to use the stock ROM as a primary ROM. I have cloned my primary ROM (Dragon ICS 2.4) to secondary and wanted to have the stock Orange ROM as primary.

I see. So you're asking for the Orange branded stock ROM in a CWM flashable zip file?
A would not the answer to the q be to flash stock rom via mobile Odin .

That looks interesting.....don't think it will have the ROM i'm after, however I only really needed the signal boost apk. I can live without it!
This thread you linked to will definately come in handy
Thanks

I was wondering suppose I rooted my S II and installed a Custom ROM And wiped the stock Samsung ROM that came with my phone.
Is it possible for me to return my phone to it's original ROM completely stock as I received it from the store ?
Thanks
P.S : Sorry if this question has already been asked.

is there any way to flash kernels without connecting our phones to pc?
a friend of mine had an HTC incredible s that could flash kernels on it by the phone only. is the same thing possible on SE mdpi's?
I think no.
Unfortunately, certainly not.
Hi
If you have a zip format flashable package containing a kernel, way shouldn't you?
When you flash a ROM, you flash also its kernel.

ROM isn't same as kernel. Kernel is medium between hardware and software. Same as you can't change ROM while phone's turned on.

Wrong, when you flash a rom you don't even touch the kernel, I guess you were talking about flashing a ftf file via flashtool.

for the md5 file you need Odin or Mobile Odin, to flash from recovery you will need a flashable ROM as zip (there is a thread in the general section with stock roms as flashable zips).

un-root it after flashing, or download via sammobile.com, flash as primary rom and then swap it to secondary.

and please folow mihahn's advice
The same as stock + root.
ROM:
http://speedy.sh/qYeq2/C5303-Generic-12.1.0.1.201-signed.zip
Mirror:
https://mega.co.nz/#!boIBHLjR!qsnN28c9xqTMq562a2lgQ6AdZVlgL4uqJZBVU75lKGk
Kernel (for flashtool after install rom)
http://speedy.sh/rFurz/C5303-12.1.A.1.201-kernel-only.ftf
Mirror:
https://mega.co.nz/#!zo4HxQQa!-rVewRUW0xcOz8WFxhfOnBR1RyjsIOknQlZ6sIPGDDA
STEPS:
Download the .zip file (see downloads)
Put the pre rooted firmware + SU zip into your internal SD
Flash both files and turn the phone off
Open flashtool into flashmode
Flash 201 kernel
Reboot device
Done
Than'k
Could you upload it with something else (for example https://mega.co.nz or http://d-h.st/) because I don't have a premium acount on speedy share, and I dont want to bloat my computer with their download assistant .exe file...
What kind of fw is this? Generic Europe? Generic Global?
Thanks for sharing!
could anyone confirm this one ?
Thank'd.
Btw, how do you make the kernel only ftf? I know how to make a full ftf and extract the kernel.sin from it. Then how to make the ftf from it? Or.. any other way? Thanks in advance.
any other link ?
because i dont have premium account.
thanks
Well no need for me to update my thread..... (kidding)
Nice work mate

It is a pre-requisite that customised or cooked roms need root & recovery to install...
Im still using Stock rom .245(4.1) rooted with CWM. Do i still need to install .254(4.1) and .266(4.3) before flashing this rom and kernel? thanks in advance

I don't think so. I have flashed a few cooked (current) ROMs with .254 rooted + CWM. What matters is having CWM to flash the ROM which comes in zip files...In fact, I had to downgrade to .254 in order to root + CWM to flash
so to correct my understanding
ROM in OP is pre-rooted but Kernel in OP is stock kernel without root?
Exactly what are the changes in this FW
I mean geez Sony only put -_- battery improvements, software enhancements and are really very generic changes
thanks

Did you really expect them to say "Basically the same ROM without all the stuff ups we forgot to fix prior to releasing it"?

No, At least they should've given the exact things they fixed liked the "App Installation Animation is fixed" instead of saying "Various System Improvements". It seems so general

Yes it is.
Did you change anything in the ROM apart from rooting it? There are some files missing compared to my german .201 version. I don't know if there are more files than the bloatware ones, it was just a short look into it.
anyone experience unknown baseband and wifi problem after flashing?
