[Q] How to get back to custom roms?

Hey guys, hope you can help me out. I was on a custom rom then was having issues with the radio and what not and GPS not working. I decided to do RUU and get back to stock ROM. What is the best way to get back to custom ROMS? Do I have to redo the hack kit? If it helps, I still have s-off. Thank you.
EDIT: Only reason I was asking was because the hard drive on my desktop where I had all the files and stuff for rooting, crashed and lost everything. Was looking to see if there was another method to load a custom rom. Tried CWM and it says it needs superuser permission...

[REQ] Possible to install different stock mms apk on 4g slide?

I've been searching the forums and I've seen people replace their respective stock mms.apk. I just got my 4g slide, coming from the g2 and im not used to this sense mms stuff. I liked the stock mms in the g2 way better. I tried handcent/chomp/go sms...neither was my thing. I'm rooted so if I had to mod anything, thats good...I just need instructions. I just want the regular android 2.3 stock mms i was using in my g2. Is there anyway to accomplish this? Really appreciate it

If you post up the .apk you want to use in this thread, i'll take a look at flashing it to my phone when I get home from work this afternoon. I'm going to run through all the ROMs I have in sequence testing the custom kernel in the dev section, but right now at this moment my phone has it's stock ROM running.
I can write the update and flash it to see if it works before I go about erasing everything on the phone - just an fyi though, i've never actually done any text messaging on the phone so I can't tell you how well it will work, just if it installs and opens fine.
If it does, i'll post the flashable update i'll end up making so you can run with it...unless someone else gets to it before I get back here today.

[Q] Need help tinkering with Rogers Stock Rom

Hey All, I am rather adverse to running custom roms and kernels on my Skyrocket for stability reasons and was trying to figure out a couple of things:
1. Debranding/ removing the Rogers splash screen, There was a thread about overwriting the files in /system/media , but the impression I got was that I couldn't do that in stock.
2. CRT off animation,I was trying to do this manually but it doesn't seem to work properly, always have errors decompiling framework-res.apk, does the rom have to deodexed, should I decompile with dependencies or both?
Thanks

Uhhh, devs any help here?

flash tpc v3 with stock kernel, problem solved

[Q] Requesting some help in getting back to Stock

I've been using 4.0.4 AOKP on my P500, but I now need to unlock my phone..
I have a code, but it seems that it's not possible to get into the Unlock menu unless you're running a stock ROM.
The problem is that basically everything on my phone is updated - baseband, firmware, rooted, etc. and on AOKP, the USB drivers don't work properly so I can't downgrade. (Or so it seems that they don't work...)
I'm wondering if anyone would be willing to help me come up with some way to either scale back down to a firmware that's known to have a working unlock menu, or stock.
I've been trying to get the FRG83 package to flash from recovery (clockwork), but after it boots, it just goes into an endless "System settings has crashed" loop.
I'm thinking the key is to get to a firmware that has known working USB drivers that's on the new baseband, then use KDZ to flash a direct-download version of the stock froyo/gingerbread ROM. Can anyone suggest specifics?
Thanks for any advice anyone may have.

Search up your usb files in google might help:/ or just reflash a rom maybe I don't know though!:/

I've been trying lots of reflashes of AOKP and stock. Perhaps I should try a different computer and install the appropriate drivers and everything.

I would like to know as well

> need to flash using KDZ updater.. now you can download your specific KDZ here look for your country and the appropriate KZD :http://www.todomovillg.es/elforodehomero/index.php?topic=319.0

Try using KDZ while the phone is in the emergency mode. I think you can boot up to emergency mode using back+vol up+power, or something like that. Just search and you'll find out. The drivers should work irrespective of the ROM installed in the phone.

Ok, I'll try it out with KDZ, thanks guys.
Does anyone happen to know if V20 (official gingerbread?) runs on the old or the new baseband?

Official gingerbread is new baseband, official froyo is old

[Q] Why am I no longer rooted after switching to [ROM] [4.1.2] [UCLL3] Stock Debloat

I was using Seanz ICS and I just upgraded to [ROM] [4.1.2] [UCLL3] Stock Debloat (12/26) and everything is working great. However, I re-installed Ti Backup and it told me my phone is not rooted. Whoops. How'd I go from rooted to unrooted by installing this? I even followed all his steps to the letter.
Is there an easy way for me to get my phone rooted again, or do I have to go through the entire process from the beginning again?
On a completely different tangent - Is there a way to get the multi-screen landscape wallpapers to work with this ROM? I loved that on my other ROMs, but I can't seem to figure out how to make it work with this ROM. Yes, I know I could use other apps to do this, but I wanted to know if I could do it without those.

Did you update the super su binaries? Just open it and it'll update them. Multi window is not functional at this time.

There was a file that you needed to flash to gain root. I believe it was a su busybox file. It is the untouched stock but debloated rom (ULL3) and wasn't baked with the su. That's all.
Not sure about the wallpapers. I'm not that keen on fancy wallpapers lol
