can somebody tell me if this is all stock? not sure about kernal, I want to take phone back to shop for repair. Any help very appreciated
If you flashed via ODIN then yes it's stock.
Boot into recovery check you have the stock recovery too.

Thanks,
Hi!. I recently flashed my froyo Ace to LeWa ROM but since I need to revert back and install the stock ROM in GB.Can anyone redirect me to the appropriate post please. Didn't do backup for original rom as I thought froyo is much outdated for a armv9. Thanks in advance.

i'm running android 2.3.3(flashed with odin) right now...i tried to install cyanogenmod using a guide form the cyanogen wiki for captivate..!
but a black screen comes up when i try to boot it in clockworkmod..!!i had to reflash android 2.3.3 all over again..!!!(man..did i get a scare o wat..!!!)
the official wiki says that itz meant for android 2.2
is there any way to install it on my captivate running android 2.3.3
or better yet can we install it without clockwork..????
CM7 will flash just fine over 2.3.3. I don't know if there is a way to do it with Odin, but you shouldn't have to. I have flashed it using that wiki numerous times over both stock and 2.3.x and, with the exception of a few boot loops, it has always ultimately worked.
If you are coming from 2.3.3, you will need a kernel with CWM that will work with your ROM. Alternatively, you can downgrade to 2.2 and follow the directions in the wiki.
What ROM are you coming from?
The kernel with cwm in it does not matter if it's compatible with the firmware he's about to flash over, the only requirement is that it has cwm.
Not going to be booting into the os after that kernel flash anyway.
Just flash the kernel with Odin and then yank the battery, button combo into recovery, and follow the rest is the directions...
Btw for future reference, please post ROM specific questions in their respective rom's Q&A sticky.

You don't really have to flash back to stock unless you want to (it won't hurt anything, just make sure you flash back with a bootloader-free package) and I would stay away from the ROM Manager installation method.
thanks a bunch..!!it finally worked...
Hello,
I hope it's not the wrong section, but the others are I9000.
I want to flash an I9001. The phone is on 2.3.3 I though.
I've root the phone, now I can go to 2.3.6 by flashing a rom in recovery or do i need to go to 2.3.6 first?

You need to flash (for example) KQ7 with Odin, this updates the whole base of the rom, most new roms are build on KQ7 base so I think that's the right one for you
btw this is the wrong section, i9000 Q&A is the right section
I think we go for broodrom.
But it's important to get first to 2.3.6 stock? Or can we flash the rom directly by odin?
As an ODIN stock ROM also includes modem binaries that we cannot flash over recovery, it is a good idea to get to the latest stock ROM with ODIN and then start with custom ROMs over FeaMod recovery (it's basically CWM). If you have already the latest stock ROM on your 9001, you can use whatever method you prefer.
I think recovery is quicker and easier to use as you don't need a pc near you.
And which last stock 2.3.6 we can flash the best? We live in Holland..., don't know it is important?

Thank you!
I recently upgraded my Note to official ICS (OTA) and I'm not liking it AT ALL! Now I really want to get far away from this update as possible and I'd like to switch to a CM9 nightly Rom. I've that now that I have upgraded to the official ICS Rom, I run the risk of super bricking my device. So now I ask you to help me make sure the following is correct so that I may move on from this wretched update:
DO NOT perform wipes if you are on original Samsung ICS
DO NOT perform wipes if you are on a original Samsung kernel??
Flash back to original Gingerbread Rom using odin BEFORE flashing to CM9
Flash to different kernel??
I've flashed millions of Roms but this one is scary and I just want to make sure haven't missed anything... Have I?
Thanks for you help!!

Just flash a stock directly rootable GB rom, root and put CM9 on it. Then do a factory reset and you're good to go. Went that way few times already.

Thanks a lot man!! This is pretty much what I thought but I wanted to make ABSOLUTE sure! Cheers!

So is the super-brick BUG on the official ICS OTA?? OMG
And yeah go back to gingerbrear via odin, get root then flash any CM9 tru CWM no problems...
I'd like to do something similar to what the OP wants to do however I have rooted and installed CWM on an official/stock ICS rom. So if I wanted to flash back to a stock gingerbread rom would I need to remove CWM and/or un-root?

There is no need to unroot first. You can flash stock GB rom directly via Odin.
I've now flashed to GB but before I move on to a CM9 nightly, do you recommend I flash the CM9 kernel as well? Seems like it is not a prerequisite but I would like to make sure. Thanks.
John J
afaik, when flashing a CM9 Nightly, the eligible kernel is built in, so no need to flash anything but the ROM.
i'm on one of imilkas first CM9 port and it says [email protected] #1 under Kernel version in settings.
Yes. The correct kernel is included in the nightly.
Hi, I have a problem with i9000 I had on it AOKP with glitch kernel and decided to go back to backup from stok firmware made in CWM 3.0.0.5 I think and now Phone is stuck on galaxy s logo. I can go to recovery but it cant mount any partition so I cant do anything. Could someone guide me how to fix this? Do I need to flash something through odin?
You can't replace a Samsung based Rom over aosp / nightly/aokp, the partition layouts are different..... flash stock with .pit with Odin/heimdall
Ok good to know that ;] Can I have a link to some stock rom and all files needed? I'm New to galaxy s so will need a little help with it. My phone was on XXJVT does it make any difference?
Thanked you by accident! Samfirmware.com
Ok there are a lot of them there is there any difference? I mean can I use I9000XWJW7 when I had I9000XXJVT ?

Hi,
i've flashed the tbaldens kernel to my one. All went fine.
But i forgot to backup my stock kernel, Shame on me
Maybe someone could upload a backup of the Stock Kernel. Or is there any way to get the stock kernel on other ways i've missed until?
Device Info: HTC One 32GB
Provider: T-Mobile Germany
Rom: 1.29.111.11
Thanks in advance.

if you got a custom rom just flash it again it will go back to stock or if you done a cmw backup flash that and it will go back to stock
Thanks for the answer, but i don't have any CWM Backup or anything else with stock kernel. And i don't wan't to flash a Custom Rom for this. At the moment i'm still on stock rom and i would keep the Stock Rom.
Should be enough if someone could backup the kernel and upload it anywhere.
