Hey guys i've read all the instructions and it seems fairly straightforward, flash with odin first to Ficeto and then use CWM to flash it to V10.1..
Problem is, I'm already on Darkys V8.0, I have no idea where to start? Do i need Ficeto, do I just backup all my **** and then flash it? Will I lose apps?
So lost.
Cheers boys!
Firstly wadever u do backup all ur wanted apps
Secondly disable lagfix before flashin new rom( nt sure if its right)
Thirdly dl ur new rom and put on sdcard not external
Fourly go into recovery mode install zip from sdcard than select the zip wait for it to install
When finish go in and restore all ur apps
I never enabled any lagfixes though?
and how do I backup my apps?
Also guys what is this JVH and JVK stuff?
Is Darkys Gingerbread V8.1 with Kernel 2.6.32.9 ([email protected] #62)
appropriate to upgrade straight to V10.5 like the above user has said?
I've already read the rest about uploading to SDCARD then booting into CWM and flashing, just need to know the rest!
Thanks guys

you can use titanium backup to backup all your apps and data.

V8.0 is bases on Froyo (Android 2.2.x), V10.1 on Gingerbread (Android 2.3.x). So DON'T flasg directly from 8.0 to 10.1. Flash any stock-firmware WITH bootloader first (I think the best way wouls be to use Ficeto's but I'm not quite sure it contains the bootloader). Them after installing the stock-ROM you have to root your phone (just flash another kernel) and finally flash 10.1 with CWM and you are done.

Hello,
I have Galaxy S 2.2.1 rooted (CF-root) with woring CWM, a Nandroid backup, and Onecosmics ICS goodys locked and loaded on my internal SD card. But still I can't find the b...courage to do a full wipe and flash ICS as if something goes wrong I will be without a descent smartphone for about 2-3 months.
My question is if I can flash straight from 2.2.1 or I should go through CM7 first.
One flash is simpler than 2 in my head..
I reckon that as the days go by I will do it and I want to make sure I do it the right way.
Thank you in advance.
Hi,
I, personally, went through a CM7 flash before going to OneCosmic's ICS, leaving Froyo. It took me about 10 minutes to do it, and in doing it this way, you stay close to OneCosmic's installation instructions.
1. Flash CM7
2. Reboot and test your phone (without installing apps & widgets)
3. Flash OneCosmic's ICS
Hope it might help!

I would recommend flashing JVU (using Odin) before cm7 as it contains the latest bootloaders, just to make sure everything works as it should

thanks!!!!
Yeah,
First I think you should install JVS with CF-Root and recovery.
Just register to samfirmware, where you can easily download the required files, also you'll find some tutorial. For CF-root, just google it, and you'll also find some tutorials, than just put the zip in your internal sd, and install it from recovery. Don't forget to remove your microSD before flashing, cause it can be damaged after.
If you did something wrong, you can still go back to stock JVS ( happened to me ) and start it over.

Dont worry, you can always Odin back to 2.x
Download mode through 3-button-combo > Odin (re-partition checked!)
Thank you for your insights, I will probably go to CM7 and then to ICS and if i get any issues I ll go back to 2.2.1 and then start from JVU.
I will let you know, soon I hope..
Going via CM7 should be the safest way. CM ROMS are the easiest and quickest ROMS to flash imo and you shouldn't have any problem. Once you do that without any problems, flashing ICS should be as easy.
Gluck!
So I tried to get CM7 over 2.2.1 with no success so I took the long road and upgraded to stock 2.3.4 via Odin, then flashed rooted CF root kernet, then upgraded to CM7 and finally (and after a lot of sweating) I got to Onecosmic's ICS which is great and really a major upgrade!
I think I have some donating to do........

Well the safest way used to be PC Odin....but see here.....some instance of PC odin getting stuck and then giving you super brick http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1653582
You can even use Mobile Odin. No one reported bricking through that...but all risks on your own !!
I used Mobile Odin to flash LC2 and the CF kernel together. No problems and I'm glad to be back to a stable rom!

4-Choose franco kernel
5-In advance restart revovery/if you cant just turn off the phone and reboot to revovery
6-Wipe every thing
7- Flash a gb rom you have downloaded
Can I use mobile odin lite
hi all got the same issue app crashing ram almost full use (thk go power) phone very slow so i want to go back to gb but I just have mobile odin lite version and a pre rooted rom stock of gb.
can i use this to go back safely to gb if yes how if no how can i do
best regards,
Worked with Odin Lite
Just flash back to GB and everything wipe clean (unfortunately) as a new phone
I feel happy and also unhappy
Easiest way of going back is to flash darkys Odin resurrection 3.4. Then via cwm flash whatever u wanna

I'd say do a soft reset first to see is some rogue program is consuming the battery too fast. If not do a factory reset (in the settings of ICS) and use your device without any program to see if it's the OS that's causing the battery drain.
If I were you i'd go back to GB only when absolutely necessary!! There are a lot of advises (already 5 different workarounds in this thread!!!) on this site who can brick your device because you have to know exactly what is currently on your device before choosing the method of returning to GB otherwise it will become a brick. Unfortunately I know what I'm talking about, just bricked my device two days ago (btw I'm not blaming anyone!!). New mainboard is appr. 300 euro, all included.
AIe
Sorry for you
I have successfuly downgrade to GB through Odin Mobile Lite.
I have flash stock rom through PC Odin and it seems that it work (for me)
Now looking how to get back my root
Got my root now waiting again for ics
Best regards
Hi Guys,
sorry for this noobie question but I'm quite new to android.
I've passed hours reading the forum about roms, kernels etc...but there are so much information for my little brain that now I don't know what to do...
So I'm on a GB 2.3.6 XXLC1 stock rom, with Franco's kernel 3.x version and I'd like to install Crisleko's ICS V7 ROM on my device but i'm not able to know how really to install it on the phone...the phone is full rooted. I wouldn't like to brick my note, so here's the reason of my question :
In my case, which is the most efficient way to install this rom ?
Sorry if this question has already been posted, but within all answer, I don't know what to do....
Thanks a lot for yout support.
You can flash the rom also directly from CWM. The reboot into recovery and select : _install zip from sd card _chose zip from sd card _select the criskeloRom zip _click yes ...... Flash it from Cwm i raccomend the Cwm app.from chainfire : _copy the rom to internal sd _start Cwm manager _ chose flash update _select criskelo Rom _click on yes...
I'm also afraid to hardbrick my device, and dude, i bought it 5 days ago lol
I had a Galaxy Nexus and flashed, installed new kernels, rooted, did everything.
I asked few ppl here and they said we should wait till the official ICS comes, it will take 1 or 2 weeks, better than hardbrick my note <3
Not quite because most bricks actually happen because of the stock ICS ROM.
Flash whatever you want, just remember to go from GB and not stock ICS, and remember - never do a factory reset while on stock ICS kernel.
If you need to do a factory reset, just flash a GB kernel, or flash GB stock with Odin, then wipe and flash ICS back.
Also, CM9 highly recommended
Ok guys, thanks a lot for answers. I've tryed to flash this rom and everything worked fine except the fact I'm a noobie and restore with TB Apps and user datas ^^. Now i'll know that user data don't have to be restored !
So I'm came back to my GB rom...
Maybe one more question :
I'll installed a new rom, I think i've understood what to do and what not to do with wipe from ICS roms but after wipe data / factory resest ans dalvik cache, is there a way to have a connection wizard software so a to set everything up because I had no data connection anymore ?
Thank a lot for your support
Hello Pascal-T,
I think I'm in the exact same position as you (except that I'm not rooted yet), but i'm also on GB LC1 and I want to go to Crisleko's ICS V7 ROM !
As I understood, you have directly install Crisleko's ICS V7 ROM on your rooted GB LC1 ? So it's not needed to install an other lower ICS ROM before going to the LQ3 of Criskelo ?
If yes this is great, then I just have to root my GB LC1, do a backup up with TB, and then I can follow Crisleko's ICS V7 ROM topic ? (At the begining I though I should first flash a stock ICM ROM but It seems to be THE THING TO AVOID).
If someone can just confirm these informations, that would be perfect
Thank you !
Well this seems like a perfect place for me to post Ive asked around, And searched a lot, But still cant figure this out. I dont wanna sound like a noob ( I am to the Note )
Ive been flashing and modding for years, Samsungs, HTC's, Sony Ericssons so I know what to do.
The thing is, All the threads I read about the bricking, and how to avoid it, Just keep forever linking me to different threads, and i end up back at the start. I dont have the Note yet (should be arriving any time) Im thinking of Only rooting for now as im not confident enough to flash without errors. But when i do, what i need to do is, Use ODIN to revert to GB (Unless it comes with GB) then:
1, Flash CF-ROOT kernel
2, Flash abyss safe kernel in cwm
3, reboot back into cwm
4, Do a full wipe
5, Install a ROM
Is that right ? I like the look of PA but would like to try a modded stock ROM to start with, So any recommendations ?
TIA

Hello guys,
I'm currently on:
Froyo 2.2
Kernel 2.6.32.9
[email protected] #91
FROYO.JPJPG
I want to upgrade to RemICS v1.3 (ICS 4.0.4), and my phone is already rooted, so my questions are:
A. Do I need to upgrade to Gingerbread 2.3.3 first?
B. Do I need to use ODIN in order to upgrade the Kernel to ICS as well as the ROM.
C. I've almost consumed most of my internal SD memory, so if I do a Nandroid Backup; where would it be stored? and would it include the apps as well as the data, or just the basic data without the apps?
I'm leaning more towards using ODIN than to put the ROM on my SD card, so that if something goes wrong I can flash it directly from there again.
I appreciate your help.

First flash GB rom (best to do via odin). Kernels are usually included within rom so you don`t have to worry about that.Nandroid will be stored on sd but you can move it to your external sd or computer. If you`ll need it later for restoring you`ll simply put it back on int sd. Nandroid does complete picture of your phone, so everything will be backed up. BUT! You can not use nand restore done in GB directly from ICS. You`ll have to go back to GB rom before preforming it.
1. Yes. You need the gingerbread boot loaders.
2. Also yes. You will need Odin a second time to flash an ics kernel with cwm in order to flash the pics zip.
3. A nandroid does everything. Literally. Do one of them, go to another rom, when you come back its exactly as before. Down to the wallpaper and homescreen layout and wether Wi-Fi was on/off for example.

You don't actually need gb bootloader to go to ics, but I recommend it as if anything goes wrong it means as easy reflash to gb , rather than going back to froyo, gb bootloader are needed to get onto cm7, which is where the confusion lies
I made the leap to GB 2.3.6 using Odin. Amazing difference from that stupid Froyo. I'm enjoying GB right now until I find a solid stable ICS.
Thank you guys for the info.:thumbup:

If you want stable ICS I recommend ics333 extreme. Worked flawlessly on my good ol` s1. Since I bought s3 don`t know really how is with development on that rom but you can check it out on forum. Many different roms and ppl with different taste out there. Almost everyone has his favorite. This one worked really good for me.
