no need to flash the firmware through odin..
go to cwm recovery.. wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache and factory reset(if you like) and flash it through the recovery!

the recovery you have is the stock recovery.. and for flashing roms and stuff you require cloxkworkmod recovery!

Start reading on how to root and installing kernel with CWM Recovery. SGS kernel and recovery parttions are the same.
Easiest way is flash Chainfire's CF-Root kernel with Odin here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
There are many other ways; Intratech has a quick root guide in post #1 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278

And if you really want to try ice cream sandwich, i will advice you to go with cm9 first as it delivers the smoothest of the experience with almost no force closes or random reboots. You arr aware of the fact that you are going to flash an expermental build right. Its not stable for daily use yet.

I am familiar with flashing. I had the LG Optimus LTE before this and flashed quite a few roms, This phone however has me awfully confused. I have been researching all day. And so far i am under the understanding that the touch cwm are not good and the use the 4.0.1.5 recovery. But what i don't understand is how do you install roms without wiping data/factory reset through cwm? don't most roms require this? and isn't that what causes the superbrick? Sorry for sounding like a noob. but can you tell me how you do your flashing?

Just use a different kernel, like siyah (www.gokhanmoral.com and make it's for the s2 not s3). Then you can wipe data. Just didn't not be on 4.0.4, and have a samsung based kernel (the kernel dev should have info in the op). Once you're on a safe kernel you can flash whatever you want and wipe data.

Yes I wiped data, cache and dalvik cache. Couldn't get into recovery so i just re-flashed my firmware via odin. All is good now and successfully flashed cm9 with no issues. Must have been a bug in the rom.

1. make a back up of your current firmware
2. In recovery, do a wipe of the cache then go to advanced and wipe daavik cache.
3. Using odin flash the ics firmware you like.

You already made 2 threads about rooting.
So since you "need" to be on ics,you open up another thread about gb-ics.
Whats next,a thread about how to use odin,or a thread about cwm.Or how about a thread for flashing kernel,or a thread about a rom.Then a thread about "help phone bricked".
Do us all a favour and read you lazy git.

1. Root your phone by flashing a rooted kernel containing CWM recovery (e.g. SpeedMod for GB ROMs), if not already done.
2. Make a nandroid backup of your current GB system in CWM recovery. (So you can restore it if flashing does not work or you don't like the new ICS ROM and you want to go back to GB.)
3. Have a look here for the latest ICS stock ROMs => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544487.
There is also a description in the first post how to flash the new stock ROM with Odin.
I recommend to flash a pre-rooted ICS stock ROM from here => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1608071.
Download the ROM, extract the zip file, put the tar/md5 file into PDA section of Odin and flash it to your phone. (Be sure that no Kies process is running on your PC while flashing.)
4. Once you are on ICS and rooted, you can install TriangleAway (=> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494114&highlight=triangleaway) app to reset the flash counter if needed.
5. Be happy and enjoy the new ICS ROM.
Good luck !

Hi,
I downloaded a stock rom from sammobile ( I9100XWLQ2_I9100XXLQ6_I9100PROLP4_HOME.tar.md5 )
I am pretty sure this is the right one because this has already worked once.
But now my phone hangs during startup. I wait really lot (10 mins) but still it hangs, even I always see the animation of 'S'
I flashed again a custom rom now, but i want a stock rom back. How can i flash?
thanks
You must perform a factory reset from the recovery. Either do it from the custom rom, then flash stock ROM, or flash stock rom, boot into recovery and then wipe /data. Order doesn't matter.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
After you flash the stock rom go back into download and flash v4 of Siyah kernel (.tar) , then boot into recovery and do wipe/factory reset.
It is not necessary to install a new kernel, just factory reset from stock recovery

I didnt say it was necessary, I just advised it since Siyah kernel is better then stock anyway for many reasons and since he's into trying new roms its much better to have custom kernel/recovery. Plus the fact that if user was to try flashing a 4.0.3 rom then wipe in stock recovery he would brick his device.
Not sure about brick, AFAIK brick occurs with 4.0.4. Anyway I would prefer more stock-ish kernel like CFroot.

Do you mean flash "stock rom"? Yes if you flash stock rom you will lose cwm and only hav stock recovery.
Once you have flashed your stock rom you should then immediately flash your custom kernel (Like Siyah). Once flashed reboot into recovery (cwm) and wipe data/factory reset.

When flashing a stock ROM (include kernel of course) it overwrite the exists kernel.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
When you will flash stock rom over custom rom everything will be erased if android version is different if same then you will face problems has phone will not work properly you have to factory reset it first install different kernel use philz it will root your phone directly and installs cmw then factory reset it from cmw.
You can also reset your phone from settings but in between you will face errors this that not working etc. use 1st method your phone will not have brick bug issue.

Hi, I have been having troubles updating my samsung galaxy S2 GT-i9100 from the rooted stock 4.0.3 XWLP7 to the last version of the official JB 4.1.2 for Spain.
I have downloaded the JB rom from Sammobile, decompressed it and installed it using Odin 3.04 but I got stucked in a Samsung's Logo boot loop.
I entered again in recovery mode and did a wipe data/factory reset and a wipe cache but it didn't fix the problem, also pull out the battery for some minutes and made a wipe again and nothing fix the problem.
Is there anybody here with another idea that not be a full wipe or to pull out the battery?

Wrong thread buddy..should ve in q+a..Anyway,you can try flashing it via mobile odin.it will give you the option to root the firmware you are flashing.Obviously the firmware will be as a tar file which mobile odin is designed to flash, and it will flash the relevant files for you.Ifyou need any more help just pm me.Oh and hit thanks!
