[Q] How do I get back to stock?

I was on jh2. Flashed i9000. Flashed jh2 , but my splah screen has i9000. My about says jh2.
My biggest problem is I can't get into recovery using volume up and down and power buttons.
I was able nandroid to restore to previous rom successfully.
Any suggestions?
Edit.. Want to get back to jh2 without wiping my memory clear.

Help please, note blocked

Hi, i used odin mobile pro to flash the new firmware but i left spaces in the folder which contains firmware, so i got my note freezed at startup, can't find logo.jpg.
Now I'd like to save my EFS folder I forgot to save before..is there a way to access my note to save it?
What should I do?do I have to flash a stock firmware and have my efs lost?
I also got a nandroid backup of my previous stock firmware..

Try to flash using PC Odin.

my note doesn't boot up, stuck at 'charging_q1.jpg' draw failed

Did you try with Download mode then flash via PC using Odin??

AGAIN, avoid using mobile odin on the note, regardless of what anyone tells you, refer to the other posts of similar issues, they revolve around people flashing the note with mobile odin, ive done this twice myself, despite having paid for mobile odin i will not use it again, until it stops screwing up our Notes.
Stick to cmw or pc odin for stock roms, they work at least.

Use odin to go back stock firmware. Check repartition in odin.

You need stock ROM with 3 files plus the 512 pit file.

[Q] Switch between ICS and GB Nandroid backups?

Hello all,
I was wondering can i change between a nandroid backup of an ICS install (say darknight) and a gingerbread nandroid backup.(say stock w/ rooted kernal)?
or do both nandroid backups need to be the same base?(ICS or GB)

Same base as nandroid required to restore.

U can. But u should flash to stock first. After that u can use restore frm backup.

ICS Roms run a different file system to Gingerbread Roms. As mentioned in the previous post if you wish to restore your backup you would need to first flash a stock rom then restore your backup over this.
The process is to use Odin with the 3 files (phone, pda, csc) and the 512 pit file. You will also need to have repartition checked.
You may also need to flash stock a second time using the 3 files. The 2nd time don't use the pit file and make sure repartition is unchecked.

[Q] Galaxy S IMEI recovery

After updating my Galaxy S from Froyo to Gingerbread my imei number has been corrupted I have read that if I reflash back to froyo there is a chance of recovering it. I can't find any working links to download froyo so am now wondering if there are any other methods to sort my imei. Any help would be much appreciated thanks.

Restore your EFS backup.

Ok I have my efs folder backed up to my pc do I restore it using odin or can I use Clockworkmod Recovery ( which is already on my phone)? Any info on restoring my efs would help

Just copy it into the root of your phone using root explorer (or similar) there should already be a folder there named efs.

Thanks beardedwonder : )
