If your new firmware is Stock firmware(released by samsung), you can flash with Odin(dont select reset partition in odin)
OR you can connect to Kies n update it.
OR Go to setting - about phone - software update, check if update available OTA, if available, you will get notice n update from there(easiest n fastest way)
Hello.
One week ago,I was forced to flash custom ROM,cause something goes wrong and I didn't have backup. However,I want back the stock ROM. Where can I download it? I don't want to install Kies to my laptop,because normally I don't need it. I am able to flash the ROM using CWM.

Depends on what you want to do with your phone, if you are fine with running stock rom, don't change it as there is no need for it.
CWM is useful when you use custom roms (both for the flash process/wipes and backups/restore), stock recovery is useful for nothing at all in that case.
So, IOW, if you don't intend on using custom roms, stick with stock recovery, if you intend on using custom roms, get CWM.
Clockwork mod recovery lets you do things like wipe factory data reset, wipe cache, battery status etc.... and can also install roms from zip files. Stock recovery can't do that. Hope I helped Also clockwork mod only works if you are rooted first I belive.
Does this mean i need to use custom rom to get cmw? Can i use cmw in stock? I dont want to flash any custom rom yet but i need cmw to flash theme? Lol

You can flash CWM and use stock but i have no idea why you would, you can't use backup or restore and you'll have no use for it what so ever.
You never need to flash a theme, you install it via market or downloaded .apk, if it's a custom theme you need a theme manager and you'll download and install themes via that manager.
You do NOT need CWM for anything you are trying to do.

You can use cwm on stock.
However, the great function isn't working on stock.
It means, even if you use cwm on stock, it has no difference with original (stock) recovery.

If you are going to use CWM anyway, might as well use custom rom...

Hi! I have a question. I have the last cmw touch but i cannot do a nandroid backup of the stock rom (2.3.4) because it can't mount system and cache. It's really not possible to make a backup of the stock rom? I'm asking this because i did some modifications like removing preinstalled apps and things like this and a new flash of the rom is not the same for me...

Has been asked a couple of times already.. CWM cannot backup stock rom, only custom roms.. The only way to restore stock rom is Odin method..

flash a stock rooted GB rom via Odin.
It will not raise your flash counter and you will have full root.
Put the ICS stock ROM on your phone and flash it with ever root using Mobile Odin
Then flash ROM of choice
Simply flashing CF-root kernel did not get me full root (could use root apps but couldn't write to system/app)

letters_to_cleo and guitarplayerone advised you better way, but you didn't listen to them and followed different method.
You must have raised your flash counter.
Enter to download mod, (vol down + Home + power)
and read flash counter Lt upper corner. If it is non zero, reset it with Triangle Away after flashing ICS only. Till then you are running out of warranty.

Anyway find toolbox from my signature, and you will get link to triangle away appl. Use that to reset counter, but before this you have to flash ics rom. How to flash ics with keeping root intact - read rom swithch over from my signature.

I was running liquid smooth ROM (jellybean version) and tryed to make it stock again.
I installed stock rom (ICS) and wanted to factory reset and wipe, but the wipe/factory reset took so long ( over 30 minutes ) so i pulled out the battery, now when i start my note it says: ''Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again''.
I can go to download mode but when i try to install the stock rom (ICS) then it installs till 75%+- and then it freezes.
Can anybody help me ?
can't put on phone normally. Can go into download but not into CMW.
Please help! thanks in advance!

Can't extract the GBROM file
i did download the GB ROM file but when i try to extract it ( by winrar ) it says: enter a pasword for the encripted file
But can't find any password on the thread.
Does anyone know how to extract by not using the code or were i can download the version withouwd the code ? or were i can get the code ?
Thanks in advance!!!
Normally the download site will has a note on pass word if that is required. In case you cannot find it, then should download from The rom thread from dr.ketan. no password needed.
Still, it looks like you have a more serious problem and may need repartition. Let,s try to flash a gb rom first.

This is the answere to Warrenty, let's make this clear
I was bricked and only was able to go into download mode, so not CWM or recovery.
When i tryed to flash ICS or GB it stopt at factory.img.
I did flash the Angelom kernel 1.2 to get the Custom binary download to 0. ( for warrenty)
After that i flashed stock GB ROM ( as far as i could, still stopping at 80%)
Now i will claim my warrenty and hopefully i will get my phone repaired back.
Thanks everyone!

Also if possible, can u give feedback on how smooth it works. Thnx. I personally own a samsung phone so im more familiar with ODIN. Are there any chances of bricking the OB if done the correct procedure? Thnx again.
