You should do a fresh flash...go back to stock GB....or flash abyss kernel (GB version) and then perform a full wipe. Never do a wipe in an ICS
kernel...then re flash the firmware...make sure that u are in GB when u do the full wipe.
If you decide to flash abyss kernel, flash it and then reboot recovery...do not reboot the phone or it will fail as GB kernels do not work with ICS. :good:

Root your phone , back up all data using titanium back up and reboot to recovery , wipe data , cache , dalvik cache from the clockworkmod recovery and flash a good gingerbread rom . And if you think rooting your phone spoils your phone etc etc then you are wrong !!!!! If you have fear of loosing your warranty you can always unroot your phone . after fresh install restore all your data with the titanium back up , you wont loose any data may it be paid app , or anything , it will be restored . And if you have fear of loosing your data like songs and other stuff on your sd card then dont worry , wiping data wont wipe your sd card
Happens all of the time after you downgrade, Sounds like you didn't clear cache/Dalvik etc once you'd downgraded to GB.. If you're on GB - Can always try to boot into stock and factory reset (this will not wipe your internal and external SD card so photo's and music will be safe.)
No notification panel, no task manager, no buttons in camera after flashing stock German jb rom on rooted stock ics(Indian rom) using pc Odin...what could have gone wrong?
Flash philz kernel.
Reboot into recovery and wipe data cache and dalvik.
You should be good.
If not wipe data cache dalvik system preload and .androidsecure in Philz and then ref lash ROM in PC Odin.
If you continue to have problems after that then post back.
Please hit thanks If this helped.

Is it necessary to flash philz kernel or should I just clear dalvik and data cache...then reflash ??

No, try first with cleaning cache and dalvik cache. Reboot and check again.
If cache cleaning doesn't help then you might try reflashing it.
You should flash philz before any wipes.
You said yoiure on rooted stock...as in stock kernel too, no?

why not do a clean install of JB by formatting system and data partitions
okay, I upgrade my n70f00 from ics stock to jb stock then root with philz kernel. everything went fine. then I notice my phone a bit slow, memory almost full (left less then 100mb out of 800mb) and everytime I boot I get 'android is upgrading, app statting.." notification. i want to reset, but when I do backup with cmw always fail (never backup before). do some this and that, i found that i can't access folder '\data\lost&found'. each time I click that folder using any rooted explorer I have the phone restart. I search and found sgs tools app that can delete corrupted media file, and it did. but I still can access '\data\lost&found' folder (keep restarting).
any idea at all?
thanks in advance..
Did you wipe all the partitions before flashing jb? You can download philz kernel (zip file) corresponding to your rom and flash it from stock recovery.. Go back to recovery (cwm) and wipe data, preload, system, cache, dalvik cache and put the phone in download mode and flash jb for your country or any country using pc odin.. Do backup anything important before wiping..

I didn't wipe anything prior to jb upgrading, hoping everything went fine so I dont have to reinstall alot of apps after upgrading. Now, I can't do full backup because it keep rrstarting when I do full backup. So I'll try several things before doing full wipe and odin.
Thanks

if you are already rooted and if phone gives you enough time to backup your apps you can try using Titanium backup pro to backup your apps.

yes, I'm root. ok, i'll try that. btw, is there any risk of bricking if I do odin with 'corrupted' system folder ('system\data\lost&found')?
thanks again
No. If you put the phone into download mode and flash stock rom from pc odin it should work, but it is advisable that you do wipe the /system /data /preload before you flash stock rom again. Make sure you are on safe kernel before wiping.

I recently tried to downgrade for rooting and cwm recovery.
No matter how many roms i tried (.245,.254,.287),
Nothing happens,I get stuck in bootloop.

That could be the problem. I also tried once 4.3 >> 4.1.2 without wiping data, resulted in bootloop as yours. (But going from .266 to .201 without wiping data worked). You might have to flash with the three check-boxes ticked (wipe data, cache and appslog).
But the only reason to downgrade is to backup data using cwm recovery and then root 4.3
By wiping ill lose all my data i.e. drm keys.

That's the dilemma I also faced Had to start all over again.. You can try "Backup&Restore" app that comes with stock rom. But that didn't work for properly for me
Btw, can backup sms, contacts, etc and app apk's with 'SuperBackup' app. But it won't backup the app data.
Because your BL is locked, have to downgrade to get root and a recovery. If you unlock the BL now, that itself will wipe the data! No way out I think..
Can u think of an alternative?
**Edit - wiping data won't erase drm keys. Unlocking BL will erase it. Before unlocking, you have to backup TA partition to save the drm keys. For that we need root! Again back to the same place.. oh.

I have to ask something.What will happen if :
I wipe my all data,cache and the third one,will it install 4.1.2,
If it does,i can root 4.1.2 using @DooMLoRD easy rooting toolkit,install cwm and take backup.
Then flash 4.3,root it and restore backup from cwm.
Will it work?
All you can do: Reflash 4.3 without wiping data etc..
Make a backup with the backup app from sony (backup to external SD)
Flash 4.1.2 and wipe everything.....
Boot up and restore backup..

Thank you.Will try it.
Does flashing back to stock wipe the internal storage of the device? Will I lose my pics and music for example? Thanks.

Only if you flash userdata.img your device will be wiped. Flashing system, boot, cache or recovery will not wipe personal data.
