If you flash the siyah kernel before you start that gives you the option to boot into download mode after you've finished the wipes and formatting. You can pick any region of firmware I can't answer about the carrier as I always opt for the unbranded version as there is less bloatware on it.

I'm on CM9 Alpha 14, Can I directly install DDLF2 or I need to install XXKPE first?
Okey so im facing the following issue here: I have the FXP v136 9.1 Rom/kernel at the moment but i want to revert it to stock.
however, my backup is gone because my SSD died. sooo, how would i get the stock rom/kernel back? (i could download the 6.1.A.2.45 stock ROM) and flash this through clockwork recovery (not sure how you call it, the fastboot recovery mode)
however, i dont have the kernel (unless its in the 6.1.A.2.45 ROM file)
not sure what i have to do here
just flash stock 2.45 firmware using flastool with flash mode

Well, you could always flash Advanced Stock Kernel and find a stock FTF. You can rename the FTF to zip and extract the kernel and flash it.
Please hit the thanks button if I helped

I think you can use mobile ODIN and flash a new firmware there.
Thanks was hoping there was a simpler way as he only just managed to flash a rom. Is it possible to flash a stock kernel through siyah.
Thanks

23732 is right. But to make it more precise - open your stock TAR rom file in mobile odin (all partitons in the app will be filled in). Then clear all of them but kernel. Then flash only the kernel partition. No need to flash anything more to come back to stock kernel.
I want to get the stock JB Kernel.
how can i get back to the stock kernel without flashing the stock rom via pc odin ?

I suggest you to use Philz kernel, it's a stock kernel with only busybox, root, and custom recovery included. Check the thread here.
If you just don't want all theses features and just want a non rooted kernel, you can just extract the zImage from the stock rom and flash it via mobile odin.

no problem, good flash
Check out the SpeedMod Kernel HERE (you can disable Root)
Hello guys ,
i have got a question. If I install CWM and CyanogenMod, can I reflash StockROM without any problems (with Stock Recovery and original kernel,baseband and csc)?
Can I use a one-piece flashfile for that or I have to use a three-part flashfile?
If I have to use a three-part flashfile, where can I get it? On samfirmware.com are only one-piece firmwarefiles...
Greetings...
Shouldn't be any problems, back up sd card in case you need to factory reset to get it to boot

And if I flash CyanogenMod, how can I reflash the StockROM with all original things, like CSC, Baseband etc?

I'll use pre-rooted stock rom from here . All things you've asked are included in package. If you use TA and do Factory Reset your phone will be rooted and Official/Normal at the same time

CSC is Samsung feature, not included in cm/aosp, modem....just make a note of you baseband, and if the Rom flash changes it just re-flash modem

Okay, but if I wanna flash the original unrooted ROM, how I must do it?
Use Odin and flash Stock ROM from here

Download the stock rom of your choice from SamFirmware, then flash with odin. Then boot into the phone's recovery and factory reset then reboot and voila.

So you say that in a 1 part firmware are the same files as in the three-part firmware? That's nice! ^^

Before I got my SIII, I used a Galaxy Fit and there I needed all files to flash my Firmware...
That's very nice to hear. Then are the other fields for files only for that if I especially want one of these files and not for flashing a new ROM?
Yes, it's optional. If you want to use for example a Rescue Firmware you'll need much more files and then more options must be ticked

What's a Rescue Firmware?
Sorry, I don't know so much about SGS-III because I only have it since december 2012...

Thanks, and this Rescue ROM is for making a factory condition?
Yes and No. I've just used it as Example to explain why there's more options in Odin. Rescue ROM is for bricked phones, if you flash accidentally with wrong ROM it can bring your phone back to life

Yes, but do not use unless you have too, it contains a .pit file which is the partition layout, .....not to be messed with unless absolutely necessary
