i installed cyanogen but I want original android back. can some one give me a detailed step by step on how to do it? Please help
thank you and I'm sorry, I just broke down and posted. is there any way to delete the thread?
try the "unroot. get back to original firmware" thread..
I know i have been guilty of posting questions without searching sometimes but a question like this is not only in stickies but also common sense, just flash the official donut build the same way you flashed cyanogen minus the whole double flash crap you gota do now with cyanogen builds because of google but thats besides the point. You may have to do a wipe too but i'm not sure.
another n00b thats being stupid and posting Q&A in the dev forum

You asked for these replies by putting your first post in the developers forum. Nice job noob.
WAIT WHAT?? you want original donut? cyanogen is original, but amili times better then stock. i dont know why new flashers want to go back to stock. is it because they dont have my fave?
If you really want to go back to stock I hear winmo has a phone for u....lol

Hello everyone,
Can someone please point me to a stock 4.24.651.1 rom? I need to get my phone back to stock. I rooted with unrevoked. I can only find odex or deodex (sorry if wrong) versions. I would like the original unrroted version if it is out there. Please, I have searched and just cant find what I am looking for. Even just a point in the right direction would help as I just can figure this out!!
1st wrong section
2nd you didn't look to hard
3rd - here you go - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=780141
I tried that and followed that video already. I cant find the stock rom that is not rooted and some of the info I found there seemed out of date with a rom that was to old to use according to my phone. Im sorry if this is the wrong section. Im not sure shere to post. I thought this would be the appropriate section since I found a lot of ROM stuff here. I would be happy to post elsewhere if I knew the right place to post.
Maybe you were looking for this?

Keep in mind, if you are rooted, you will lose it. If you install any of the 4.2 ones you wont be able to root it again until they come up with one.
YES!!! Thank you, I believe that is what I need. I really appreciate you pointing me to that site. For some of us who dont get on the threads alot it can be a bit frustrating trying to find the right info. I appreciate your help and not slamming me for asking my question.
Nobody will "slam" you for asking questions but thy will for posting in the wrong section. But it was nice for Chamala to answer your question and let you know it was the wrong section.

Another mirror and a great resource: http://goo-inside.me/supersonic or just http://goo-inside.me if you want to browse all they have to offer.
Also this thread in these very forums: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884060
I don't bother fighting the wrong forums, not searching, etc anymore. It's not worth the effort and XDA mods don't really care anymore, especially with the EVO becoming a budget phone.
This is just a quick list of things I thought would be helpful to Noobs/Newbs. They're not in any particular order. Also, sticky if need be or just leave as is. Sticky would be preferred though so Noobs/Newbs can see it right away. Anyway, here are what I feel should be the 10 Commandments for the SGS4G Forum. You may agree or you may not. Think what you will. If you feel anything should be added, PM me and I'll make the changes myself. Thank you.
#1 - Search The Forum Before Asking Questions.
Unless you like getting flamed by people when you don't search before asking.
#2 - DON'T USE ROM MANAGER ON SGS4G EVER!!!!!!
Unless you really like ODIN that much.
#3 - DON'T TRY TO FLASH ANY ROMS OUTSIDE OF THE SGS4G FORUM
Unless you wanted a nice brick instead of a phone.
#4 - Read the "[Guide] *NOOB's* guide to flashing " Thread In The General Section Before Trying To Flash Anything.
You'll eventually get pointed to that direction anyway if you don't read it. Trust me, we can tell when people don't.
#5 - Read The Instructions For The ROM Before Installing.
Unless you really like reflashing or reverting back to STOCK. HELLO ODIN AGAIN.
#6 - When You Have A Problem With A ROM, Be Descriptive About The Issue.
Believe it or not, the Devs here can't read minds nor can they see over your shoulder to see what your issue is on your phone. They're good, but not that good.
#7 - Be Thankful Towards Our Devs.
If you like a ROM, show your appreciation. If not, then keep your mouth shut and use a different ROM or better yet go back to STOCK. ONCE AGAIN, HELLO ODIN.
#8 - POST IN THE RIGHT SECTION!!!!
Prepare to get flamed if you don't.
#9 - When Flashing From Froyo To GB, Follow FBis251's "[ODIN+CWM] GB Ext4 Starter Pack (Sep 27)" Thread or use the updated Kies Mini to upgrade to official KJ6.
If not, then yet again, HELLO ODIN.
#10 - For The Love Of Our Forum, Don't Ask A Dev For An ETA!!!!!
You'll only get one answer if you do. WHEN IT'S DONE!!!
Going to add one more thing until we actually get it for our phone.
#11 - If You're Coming From Another Device, Don't Come In Here Thinking You Can Get CM7 For The SGS4G.
This goes along with #3 in a way. Its being worked on. Now that we have the kernel source for GB, we are now one step closer. So, until the devs figure everything out with the source to get CM7 working, IT CAN NOT BE INSTALLED!!!
Now if you're wondering, "What is ODIN?" well, there's a guide for that...
[GUIDE] Noobs guide to Odin to flash your SGS4G (Windows)
Like I said, feel free to PM me if you feel something should be added.
Not bad.. I'd also add the noob's guide to ODIN, and put up a link to the Bible thread to find every ROM, guide, Kernel, modem, etc that's been put up in the dev section.
Nice Work Thanks
Deserves a Sticky
Nice list, glad to see it stickied.....hopefully it will cut down on the repetitive questions that have been plaguing the threads lately.

Good thing no noobs are gonna read this. The newbs might since they're willing to learn, but not the noobs.

Looks good +1

You're the best kind of new user, the one who reads and tries to keep informed. I'll be glad to help if you have any questions.
well im glad its not overlooked
So, I think "Do NOT necro threads" should be added here. I'm seeing that a lot recently. It's just ridiculous.
I think that is general forum etiquette, not much SGS4G specific.
Updated #9 since we now have an official GB Upgrade. Will be taking #11 off as soon as we get new kernel working to run CM7.
Nice laws. I made the rom manager mistake when I was a noob. Seemed like the easiest way to go, until my phone wouldn't boot.
has anyone figured out why rom manager cannot be used...and if so what are proposed solutions
hey guys could you please direct me to the link on how to totally start over fresh.. basically if i want to do a complete wipe and start over on my phone ive got the kj6 version.. i think its probably a good idea for me to familiarize myself with it now thanks..

Look up Raver's Odin KJ6 rom. It'll leave your phone as if you had just downloaded the Kies official update.
Thanks alot... I've just been putting particular things on my phone.. Checked out and installed a few roms... I've read on some of these threads about ghost roms and other issues just want to make sure ive got my bases covered.. Thanks again..

I know it's a little late, but updated #11 since we now have the kernel source for gb.

Thanks for this thread. Took me over a week to wade through and find this starting point. I just rooted my phone and have been nervous about flashing a rom with all the different ways posted on how to go about it.
I apologize if this has been answered and I missed it.
Last night I rooted my Inspire using the Ace hack kit. I would like to install CM7 on it. If I do this, do I also need to flash a new radio/ril? or does the ROM come with radio/ril included?

Wow....seriously you should have probably read alot more before rooting and opening a thread like this...
CM has its own Q&A like most roms so please ask questions there. Per xda rules you are to search first before asking. All of this can be found on this site.
This is not a help site, its a developers site so please keep that in mind.
Help: only time I'm doing this...
Link to cm Q&A http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1213154
Roms come with rils not radios. Radios stay with the phone. Please don't ask how to flash a radio. Find the radio thread in the inspire dev section. You will find instructions there.
I got your 10 char right here
If you successfully rooted with the Ace Hack Kit, then you already have the best radio you're going to find. CM7 already has it's own RIL and it is 100% compatible with the radio that the hack kit installs.
In short, don't **** with your radio.
Hi everyone,
I'm fairly new to customizing my android phone. Have only had a Galaxy SII before, which I flashed to CyanogenMod.
Now I might be interested in flashing my new One S, particularly due to better battery life but also for enhanced possibilities.
I can of course read the guides on how to root & flash (although it seems a lot more complicated than on my Galaxy SII).
What I'm more worried about is, how do I flash back to stock, if that should be necessary later on? Is it very complicated?
Now, I actually like Sense 4.0, HTC keyboard and some other HTC things, so I would like to flash a ROM with Sense. I've looked through the forum and concluded, that either Noble or Trickdroid might be suitable for me. I know that it's not polite to shoot down the one or other ROM, but could some of you tell me the differences between the two? I can't really point them out myself.
Thank you very much!
Best regards
Casper

If you can read, you would know the differences between the 2 roms, and you would also know that THIS IS DEVELOPMENT SECTION, NOT Q&A !!
Wrong Section.
Sorry, how to move?

Harsh.
But yes, it is the wrong section. A mod will probably move this post soon enough.
That said, I just read them over. They look to be mostly the same. Stock with a few tweaks here and there. Noble looked the better of the two to me.
Both have some very vague language though
Fully optimized and tweaked
RAM optimizations
Speed optimizations
Excellent battery life!
Better CPU Performance

You can always just take a backup and flash each one and give them a day or two test run.
Moved To Q&A
Please post questions in the Q&A section

Do you know how to flash stock rom and un-root, if it'll be necessary?
