Super noob question here. Does Zune download a complete image file and RUU with the nodo update? Is there anyway to extract said file? Basically looking for a way to restore my phone to complete stock (stock as in a file downloaded straight from MS/T-Mobile). Any other way to do this?
Still haven't received this update by the way...is this normal?
Edit: Or is the file downloaded from a third party (the dev section) still "signed" or whatever?

I want to be able to flash the KIES firmware trough odin. I allready managed to download GT-I9000_I9000XWJPA_I9000XENJP2_I9000XXJPP_I9000XWJPA_XW_XEN.zip.enc This is the firmware I installed trough kies and is currently on my phone. I want to create Odin separate file package in case I **** something up I can always return to my original firmware. Could someone provide the decryption code for http://fus.samsungmobile.com/Phone_...00XENJP2_I9000XXJPP_I9000XWJPA_XW_XEN.zip.enc . Many thanks in advance!
If you have upgraded via Kies you might be able to find the unecrypted rom in a temp directory of your computer.
Orcie keep me posted on your findings?
I already posted a Odin flashable JPA rom.
It is the same as the one from Kies, but it has been converted to a mid package to allow flashing with Odin.

GT-I9000_I9000XWJPA_I9000XXJPP_CODE-MODEM_OSP-MID
Allready spotted that. Have the code now 55625. Richthoven how do you convert from single file to mid level package? I can tell what files need to go where but it seems that I need something extra?
I have a rooted 2x and I want to unroot and come back to stock rom, but I don`t now how do that... When I connect a phone to computer and open a lg software update program on computer, I receive a message: new software update are available. Anyone now, if I update the phone, will unroot and back to stock rom??? Thanks in advance

It depends on the type of update, some are full updates which will wipe your phone (including removing root), some are incremental which will just replace some system files.
You can find out which though by going through the update process. If the uprade will wipe your phone you will get a warning stating so.
As for you wanting to go back to stock, you can simply download a stock rom from here on XDA, flash with smartflash, and you will be back to completely stock.

Thanx for reply. I downloaded stock rom and smartflash, but I don`t now exactly how do that... I open smartflash, click rom copy d/l, then in cp bin browse to find stock rom file, to drag in, but when i click browse in that map where the stock rom is, smartflash don`t see this file.. any idea????
Check my topic, I've created a topic on how to flash back to stock rom
Can you enter download mode on Mango beta? will you be able to restore an old leaked rom with the WP7 downloader method we already use?
Thanks
gonna answare this myself: yes you can, just reverted back to kc1 without any problem... no need for a backup then!
yeah you can.
Asked this myself a few days ago and.. finally found the answer - Thanks!
Remeber that with any update done trough Zune you're not actually overwritting firmware you just use ImageUpdate to use updated system packages stored in the NAND flash instead of the ones included in the firmware.
I think I might have found the stock firmware but I'm not sure the file is labled as
XT1058_RCI-CA_4.4.4_KXA21.12-L1.26_59_cid14_CFC_1FF.xml.zip
Just wanted to make sure it was safe to download
Per this thread -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...rogers-canada-4-4-4-sbf-t2905525/post56055157 it appears to be XT1058_RCI-CA_4.4.4_KXA21.12-L1.26_59_cid14_CFC_1FF.xml.zip
But I don't have an XT1058, nor have I tried downloading and unpacking it to confirm myself.
Been trying to update my brothers S5 running NG3 to the OA1, however it fails cause previous owner of the phone I guess rooted it and must have unrooted and modified the system/bin/ddexe file as it complains during sideloading that file has unexpected contents.
Wondering if someone has this file in stock form and then how do I inject it back into the original location? Can I do this from ADB?
Is it possible to say dirty flash the phone by say just dropping the entire /system like many of us do on the Nexus 7 (2013)?
Or do I really have no choice but to completely wipe it by going back to NCE via Odin, the OTA to NG3, then OA1, then finally Lollipop? He has a lot of data we'd have to completely redo which we were looking to avoid doing.
So looking in the NG3 OTA update, looks like this file ddexe was never touched or patched. So then pulled the NCE stock firmware, extracted it, then the system.img.ext4, them pulled that and converted it to an img file, then extracted the ddexe file which I believe is the one I need to put back in.
Now I just need to see if I can ADB this file into the phone and overwrite the existing one (if its there) even though that the phone is not rooted (which I don't believe it is).
