I can answer your question partially. The advised method to go to CM9 from amy ICS ROM is to go to a stock GB ROM first. Hopefully someone will better answer your question, and you're right that it has been covered several times in the CM9 thread.

NO!!
All released ICS Firmwares have the Brick Bug.
I think it's enough to flash a safe Kernel (like Speedmod) before flashing cm9

Thanks. flash speedrom.

[Q] KIES updated after ICS?

Hi.. If I install LPF ICS 4.0.3 and root it as suggested here, will I still get KIES updates when they are available?

As long as the firmware that you want to flash is Stock, you will be able to update, but you will lose Root.
The Rom in your link is stock but from Taiwan, so the CSC will have limited update options in the future. More details are given in the original thread of this Rom here.
Hope that helped!
Yes thanks.. well as its newer than the LPY German, I just thought maybe it'd be better to install this one instead. What do you suggest?

I suggest not to flash a LPY Rom, there is high risk of bricking your device. If you are not so familiar with this i advice you to look around for details about the procedures.
IMO, flash via PC-Odin a GB Rom, or a Custom GB rom (Chrack's is the Best) and then if you want a custom ICS pick one of the new, such as MidTeam 1.3, CM9, RocketRom etc.
Hope i could help!
I see.. u think even the new Taiwan one LPF would be risky? Cause I read there are many things which are not working in CM9. About MidTeam and Rocket I don't know.. will have to look at them.

LPF is better and safer than LPY.
Since you want the LPF just flash it, many people say that it works fine.
To be clear here, i haven't tried it. I prefer CM9 but it's just a matter of taste after all!
Public Service Announcement:
DO NOT FLASH OR WIPE USING ANY ICS REPACK OR STOCK KERNEL
Not even wiping in stock recovery is safe with affected kernels. Almost all ICS kernels for the GT-N7000 are affected.

Please stay on GB for now... There is a bug on EMMC that effects all leaked ICS roms so far. Read the Public Service Announcment:
Even official LPF rom is effected by this bug.
The ZSLPF official release - http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1661590 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...1#post26275391 are the first two reports.

As said earlier, they are completely safe to flash. All of them contain custom CM9 kernel built using the safe SGS2 source code.

Flashing ICS Updates

Hi All,
This will sound a stupid question, i have flashed SpeedMod Kernal (K3-3) how to i go about flashing a ROM also?
I know most ROMS say how to perform but SpeedMod says no CWM or CIN9 roms?
Anyone help.
What I did:
1. Flash Stock ROM 2.3(choose your country from the Stock Rom topic) with Odin 3
2. Root your device
3. Install CWM
4. Install safe ROM (CM9 as example)

Nothing stupid about the question, but it doesn't belong in Development. I've moved it to Q&A. Please be more careful about where you post

So what ROM are you on now with the speedmod kernel? Stock ICS?
What ROM do you want to go to?
Currently on latest UK ICS 4.0.3 (Offical) rom from Samsung Kies software. Sorry should have stated before not on 2.3.6 anymore.
Any suggestions?

Okay, flash the Speedmod kernel in CWM. This puts you on a safe kernel with stock ICS.
Now, you can flash a CM9 variation of a rom or aokp or one of the other ICS roms that use samsung base.
Edit:
After you flash speedmod, boot up your phone and check settings, about phone, and make sure the kernel is speedmod. Let your phone settle for a little bit, maybe charge if it needs to.

[Q] How to go back to stock ROM

Hi all,
I'm running one of the AOSP roms and I have CWM Recovery. I've decided I've had enough of playing with custom ROMS because none of them have ever delivered. Please tell me how I can go back to a stock ROM.
Thanks
Download a file from Dr. Ketan development thread and flash it with Odin.
Really easy. I too just went to rooted stock. It more stable and battery great. Haven't restart my phone in a week. No crash. I'm on stock LQ3 rom.

No if your flashing a GB rom through PC odin the GB kernel is flashed before the wipe takes place so its safe to do
I am currently on CM9 rom and want to go back to stock ics for a while. I will want to return to CM at a later date.
Can I do this safely?
Do I return to stock GB and then update via OTA to ICS or is there a safe ICS stock to flash? - remembering that I will want to go back to root and CM at a later date?

I want to go back to GB but I don't know how to. I am currently running LPY ICS and an unsafe kernal, reading these huge threads just makes me even more confused to be honest.
I have Mobile ODIN PRO - is there an easy and safe way to get back using this?
Guys please observe basic forum etiquette and start your own thread if you have an unrelated question. I wouldn't hijack your thread.
I'm already on an AOSP ICS ROM (one of the unofficial versions). How do I flash back to stock safely? How do I get rid of CWM?
Thanks
Guys on the AOSP/CM9 ROM----flash a stock GB ROM via PC Odin.
The guy with the LPY ICS use PC Odin too.
The above you would have found out on your own with 2 mins worth of searching.

There is no "safe ICS stock" currently---all ICS stock kernels have the brickbug.
Best way is to go to stock GB and then via OTA---that way you can get samsung warranty service if you mess up and your phone gets bricked.Alternatively, search around in the forum for stock ICS ROMs-there ought to be a few in the dev/general section.And "where there is a rom,there is info about flashing it"
hi, does anybody know what my original gingerbread version should be as i forgot to take note. i am currently on ics n7000xxlpt and i want to revert back to the original. just have no idea of how to find out.
thanks in advance

Best way to proceed when reverting to stock FW?

Hiya
Was thinking of reverting back to stock ICS 4.0.4 but with all the unsafe kernel stuff going on I was wondering, what is the best way to proceed?
I want to revert because I feel that the stock rom was overall more stable and always "worked", but I dont want to brick my phone and I'd like to be able to change rom if something better comes along
Currently im running the stable GT n7000 release from cynagenmod, with CWM 6.0.1.0
So any pointers?

If your on ics better be in safekernel like notecore, speedmod, or goku.
Flash gb rom first and do the 3 wiping before flashing the ics, use pc odin. This is clean install, its the best way before installing an ics.
Just flash ics using pc odin.
And dont forget to be on safe kernel after flash.
