[Q] I Want to get back to stock rom?

As the title stated i want to get back to samsungs stock rom and kernal so i can upgrade my phone to 2.3 and get my warranty back.
First of all i need to disable the lagfix and the tweaks of course but after that should i flash back to samsungs original kernal or should i flash back to stock rom first?
My kernal version is:[email protected] #14(2.6.32.9)
Rom: I900XXJPY 2.2.1
Dumb question but i can't just upgrade my phone to 2.3 via the phone's self updater. I just want to be sure.

You don't give a ton of detail here. The first step would be to find a stock rom for your device and region (2.2.1, 2.2, 2.3 all would be OK) on samfirmware.com or ramad's collection here on XDA. Then flash with Odin.
Any stock rom that is right for your location should then update to the latest when you connect to kies (or so I hear I don't use Kies..)
It will contain a stock kernel so don't worry about that. Note though that if your phone is really screwed and that is why you are flashing a stock rom for warrenty then a custom rom might boot up but a stock rom may not.
If its just for resale then you should be good to go.

Thanks for the help man.. My phone is not screwed up but i'm starting notice that it is starting to "fall apart". So that's the reason i want my warrenty back.

[Q] Custom Kernel + Stock Update

Hello everyone,
I have some questions about my current setup for the Galaxy Note. First of all, I have the stock firmware installed with Android 2.3.6 (if I'm correct that that;'s the latest version). Together with the latest AbyssNote 3.5 as my kernel.
I have updated the kernel with the Mobile ODIN app, since I have a MacBook and no Windows installation... Anyways, my questions are this:
1) Will I be able to update to ICS as soon as it gets released by Samsung with the current custom kernel, or do I have to flash it back yo stock by then? And if so, how?
2) When updating to a custom rom, for example, RocketROM inside Mobile ODIN, will I lose all my data/apps and such? Or will it be as a upgrade so I don't have to reinstall anything?
3) When ICS would come out and I would have a custom rom + kernel, how do I proceed further? Do I need to wait for a custom ICS version to update to? Or do I have to revert everything to stock and such before I could update to the stock ICS?
$) And at last, when I would decide to flash my Note back to stock from a custom ROM/kernel, how do I do this without losing all my data/apps?
Thanks for your answers!
Regards,
berserkrico

[Q] Switching Kernel

Im currently on nAa v11. Maybe in the future sometime i would want to use another kernel and i was wondering if i have to flash back to stock kernel and then flash again to the new 1. Or can i flash the kernal while im using nAa without going back to stock?

This question was already answered in another post (why is there even a SEARCH button?).
NO, you don't have to flash back to Stock for as long as you stay at the same Kernel / ROM combination. If there's an update for the kernel, just flash the update.
If you want to change to another ROM requiring another kernel you flash the new kernel that's required.
If you want to re-lock the boot loader or you want to restore back to Stock ROM you need to flash the Stock Kernel FIRST!

Haha! I already asked this question a month ago, just shows how people dont use the search button.
No you dont switch back to stock kernel, as b.jay said

[Q] Upgrading to ICS with custom kernel?

Will I have to flash back to the stock kernel to update to ICS official OTA?
Im currently running AbyssNote ver4.2, so what will happen if I take the update whilst still running that? I am running a completely stock ROM
This is probably a stupid question but i cant find the answer anywhere else!

[Q] Updating to offical JB from offical stock ICS

Hi Guys
Sorry if this question has been answered before, but i did try and look for an answer but had no luck. Unfortunely I do have abit of a strange situation.
I updated to an offical Australian vodafone (my provider) ICS rom (GT-N7000B version) through mobile odin a while back from a XSA (AUS) GT-N7000 GB rom. Since i used mobile odin i was able to pass root through to the new rom which was great.
Since the release of JB has come out I am wondering since I know about the brickbug etc, how will I update my phone to JB since i am on a stock ICS kernel? As it was to my understanding I cannot flash anything on a stock ICS kernel due to the flash bug?
Can i actually use pc odin on a stock ICS kernel and flash over the top to JB or will I have to re-flash GB or ICS GT-N7000 model rom and then use a safe kernel to flash to get clockwork mod and then go over that to get to JB?
Any advice?

If you want just stock, i.e. no root or anything, just go back to gb and flash official JB through PC Odin.
Alternatively, you could also straightaway flash official JB through PC Odin.(Not recommended)
