I am new to the nexus s , but have been a heavy galaxy s user. I noticed that flashing roms etc is a bit different from what I am used to on my galaxy s .. I did not see any thread containing stock kernels ... So how can I return to stock after I have flashed another kernel ? I have installed the voodoo kernel with ext4, sound and colour enhancement .. But suppose I want to return to my stock gri54 kernel , how can I do that ? Have read allready about fastboot etc etc but then I should have an .img of the stock kernel , correct ?
By flashing back to stock rom, you will get back your stock kernel automatically.

So by flashing back to stock ROM via recovery, does it mean that it will be locked and un-rooted as factory default [like when you first purchase the device]?

It will be unrooted, but still with unlocked bootloader.

The Odin package can put you back to stock rom too.
So what you are saying there is no way to flash only the stock kernel ?? Very confusing .. I am able to flash just another kernel using fastboot but I am not able to flash back the stock kernel using fastboot ? Odin is a last resort method .. haven't seen fastboot .img files of the stock here in the forums ?
I'm not sure if anybody posted any stock kernel file in the forums. If there is any, you can easily download it and install via recovery or fastboot.
Otherwise you can only revert to stock roms because stock roms links are easily available through the forums or samsung firmware website.
Or after you have failed everything, may want to consider Odin. It seems to touch the phone at a lower level compare to other techniques.

Good luck
Yeah , I also mentioned odin allready .. Used it a lot when I had my galaxy s .. Just thought that since the nexus s can use fastboot I could get rid of odin ..
I am also not used that all has to be flashed to achieve a single goal .. On the galaxy s I could flash the kernel separately and also stcok kernel were easy to find .. I think it is kind of a hassle to reflash a whole rom just because you want stock kernel back ..
Voodoo has stated that his kernel is 'almost' stock, with only voodoo addon to the pure stock kernel. Maybe you can use that?
Some news here?
Hi there!
I was also wondering about this same situation. Let's say I want to stick with the original ROM and try some non-stock kernels. After some tests I know there is an OTA available but I don't want to backup and restore everything (using TB or similar). From what I understood I wouldn't be able to flash stock kernel (in other words, back to full stock ROM + Kernel) and apply OTA update...
What if we just flash boot.img from a nandroid of stock rom+kernel?

Hoo great!
but, can you tell us where to find or how to get it from the stock ROM and make it flashable? It might be useful for upcoming releases of stock ROM/Kernels.
Thank you once again,

edit: after searching by the filename you gently provided I found this:

hxxp://www.michalurban.cz/Nexus_S_i9023/Kernel/
seems to be a good compilation, and stock is in the list!
The file I posted is already flashable through CWM. Just wipe dalvik first. Of course make sure you have a Nandroid backup just in case.
Hi,
sure, I noticed that. What I was wondering was how to get this flashable kernels. From the stock ROM full installation file? From a nandroid backup of a stock ROM??

Hi, is any chance to get stock kernel for Jelly Bean 4.1.1? I've got stock rom, Air Kernel and OTA is buzzing me multiple times a day. No luck in upgrade, Error Status 7. I think it's Air Kernel's fault.

Im kinda a noob. I have flashed to several roms (currently on serendipity and loving it.) Everytime to change roms I flash back to stock with ODIN. Is there a faster/easier way to flash? Cuz right now it takes me like twenty mins to completely change roms (not counting reloading apps and system data.) Thanks in advance

normally u can just flash over previous ROMs w/o goin to stock when dealing with froyo ROMs sometimes u need to disable voodoo lagfix depending if the included kernel doesnt support it. but if u were to go to a i9000 gingerbread ROM then flash a froyo you would need to flash to stock with odin oneclick JF6(non 3 button fix only) because gingerbread bootloader and secondary boot from froyo ROMs will brick you
if its a full wipe ROM then no need to wipe as the ROM install will do that itself
But I couldn't figure out how to make Captivate Recovery 3e work....so just use Eclair to flash to roms...

Have you checked the extended power button menu? Recovery might be right there then that's all you would do to get into clockworkmod recovery- which is what you want for flashing ROMs over one another. And like you said, wipe your caches and stuff. But this goes for 2.2, or 2.2.1, not to be done between froyo and gingerbread ROMs. There might be a way to do that, but for the now the safest way is to not do that. Stick to one firmware at a time.. that's the easiest safest way for a noob to get around and try different ROMs.
any self-respecting rom chef will make the update script wipe cache, system, data, and dalvik cache.....

Just to clarify, if flashing to froyo from gingerbread, make sure the froyo package you are flashing doesn't contain any bootloaders. You do not need to go to stock jf6.
Froyo ROMs can run on gingerbread bootloaders, but if you mix a gingerbread bootloader with a froyo bootloader, you will brick your phone.

To check the rom for a secondary bootloader, open up the zip look in the updates folder if you see "sbl.bin" that would be the secondary bootloader. Don't flash that rom.

It's my understanding that the only way to flash a bootloader is through odin. Flashing a rom safely should only be done through CWM after flashing stock 2.1 or flashing a 2.2 kernal that has both CWM and 3e.
You can flash any 2.2 rom while maintaining your gingerbread bootloaders.
Correct me if I am FACTUALLY incorrect.

As studacris said, cognition flashes a bootloader (i assume sbl.bin). So it seems that odin is not the only way to flash a bootloader.

You're incorrect on several points: 1.Cognition has a bootloader in a cwm zip, you can flash a bootloader without odin.
2.you can flash a rom with odin, going to stock is still a rom.
3. It can't have 3e AT ALL or you will get a signature error and the flash will fail.
4. You don't have both 2e/3e and cwm st the same time. cwm replaces stock recovery.
5. Like I mentioned before cognition has a froyo bootloader so you can't flash that with gingerbread ones or it is guaranteed to brick, you can all other roms though just not cog.

sounds like it's connecting fine.. and you described it right, flash the stock rom in Odin first and boot up to make sure it works or do some minor set-up, then flash the latest 8/17 CWM in Odin and immediately boot into it after, make the backup then flash whatever rom/kernel you want (Gummy 2.0 has one included and will enable voodoo lagfix on first boot)
not that hard once you do it once or twice and kinda learn how it all works and whatnot

no no no stock rom in PDA first, boot up after the flash, power down and connect to Odin again and put CWM in PDA (everything goes in PDA) and flash then unplug phone after it passes and immediately boot into CWM no regular boot up.. then wipe data, dalvik (under advanced) and cache then flash Gummy or rom of your choice (custom rom build must match stock build like stock EP1W with EP1W Gummy 2.0), select reboot phone option and let the kernel activate voodoo lagfix when it boots up (may take a while)... once it starts you'll have a rooted voodoo custom rom, then you can hold the power button down until the reboot options menu comes up and select recovery to proceed to flash the updated kernel if you want
also the modems will be the ones installed with the stock rom, but you can flash new ones in Odin in the PDA section if you want

so i have just about all the files i need 1. ep1w stock debloated.tar.md5 i have this i assume i flash this via pda but i was told i need to flash a kernal with this??? is this true... cause i just want to flash gummycharged 2.0 2. i have a file called recovery_charge.odin.md5.tar is this the correct cwm i have been hearing people having issues with the newest version whitch i had previously and could not fix don't want it to happen again. 3.can i just flash my rom of choce via odin like gummycharged odin version or humble 5.0 ?? plus the most recent cwm won't let me download anyway...
Yea I'd d/l the imeyosen 4 kernel.it is very fast and stable. Also has smartass and interactive x governors, which u have to enable in terminal emulator tho
i am not currently rooted but what do i do?? i flash the stock rom reboot and then flash a kernal via odin?? what about cwm?
ok looks like i already have this on my desktop but there is no way to flash this i do not have cwm yet that is my biggest hurdle i just want gummy charged... and people were having issues with the lastest cmw..
Well I can tell ya what I used when i got my charge. The thread in development I think is called root,kernel, cwm. That got me rooted with voodoo.then I just worked my way up from there. Upgraded my radio to ep3 made a huge difference for signal strength.then to ep4. Then I odin'd humble 4 which came with cwm. I then flashed emoysen 4 in cwm. Then flashed humble 5. I haven't had any problems with the cwm version he included.
But all that jumping around aside. I think you can Odin the radio straight to ep4 and Odin to humble 4 and after that do whatever you want in cwm.
so technically i can just flash the humble 5.0 odin file without being rooted and it will give me root and cwm haven't rooted yet or any rom for that matter i was just wanting to flash one rom and i am good to go such as gummy charge 2.0 odin or humble i don't plan on flashing a whole lot..
Well I can't remember if humble 5 has a kernel. I know it didn't when i d/l it. Unless the post has been updated. That's why i said go humble 4 first .it includes imoysen 3 .1 kernel I believe
And I'll say in my personal experience humble 5 is the most stable with best battery I've ran yet. And I've flashed every single rom there is for the charge. But it varies from phone to phone
so with no root i can just flash humble 4.0 and i am rooted with kernal and i am done??

I may need someone else to chime in cuz i didn't do it this way. But i think Odin with a rooted rom and kernel does it. I'm about 90 percent sure of that . Somebody? Anybody?
Also its worth it to upgrade ur radio to at ep4.
Just remember use the PDA button only in Odin
would like some assurance of a better possibility i guess technically i flash the stock ep1w debloated rom boot up, power off back to odin flash that cwm version you mentioned earlier in the thread do a backup in cwm and then flash via cwm.... correct.. don't mean to make things complicated..

When in cwm, choose to install zip from SD card and go all the way to bottom and select "update.zip" and if it doesn't reboot, select reboot now and it should boot into Red CWM. That might do it i think

Well you need to have a kernel with voodoo enabled like Entropy's or you can't get red cwm. The stock leaks HAVE to have a stock kernel for video to work however. Oh, and yes you can. You can do that or through SGS Kernel Flasher on the market. What do you need red for anyway?
