How to go back to Stock Rom? - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
My device has rooted Android Gengerbread OS and I want to flash a stock rom for the device so I can update the rom to Icscream version. Is there any stock rom (with the original recovery) as zip flashable file?
Please help.
Thanks

Why don't you just flash the new ics ?

Hi,
You can get the stock rom for your device from the below thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1063664
The thread also has links to stock ICS roms, in case you are interested
Do note that your ROOT will go once you flash the stock rom - i think that is what you intend to.
Thanks,J

[Q] A question regarding flashing ROM

Hi all. I'm sorry if this has maybe asked before, but i've read several guides and topics and didn't quite get it. What is the difference between flashing a rom via Clockwork mod and odin? Currently I have Lite'ning Rom v6. 1 XXKH3, KERNEL version [email protected] #20 and I was wondering what are the right steps to change to another custom rom(I have a galaxy s 2 and i was planning to try a ics rom). Thanks in advance
from what i have gathered through flashing roms on my sgs2 odin if for official samsung roms and CWM if for home made roms but i may be wrong
Thank you for your reply. So if i want to go back to stock firmware I shall use odin and clockwork for custom roms? Anyone else can confrim this?

[Q] GT-5113 Stock Firmware

Hi,
I want to know if there is any way to restore my tab to stock firmware? I can't find any links for GT-5113 ROM.
The reason to store the stock ROM is that I have installed CM9 on my tab and now I am unable to install Infected / Cleanrom. It hangs on Samsung boot screen after installing these roms via CWM.
Thanks.

As you realized AFTER the fact, creating a thread in development means you have something to offer to others,
not asking questions. FYI: I stopped using CM9 ROMs a long time ago because they frequently contain MANY
hidden bugs, only work properly when loaded with certain kernels, certain CWMs ... bottom line is you're
just one of the latest victims. Try a factory reset. Then ODIN the CWM in my Root thread. Then install
the ORIGINAL v1.0 CleanRom. It's the best of current custom ROMs and NO, we still don't have a stock GT-P5113.

We had the same situation, so hope this help.
I used odin to flash the gt-5110 stock Rom followed the guide in restore stock rom in galaxy tab 2 general section .After flashed my model gt-5113 became gt5110...lolz then i flashed the Clean Rom v1.1 then my model was back to Gt-5113..now I decide to stay at stock rom because Cm9 sucks...waiting for Aokp official.
If have any question pm me, I'll think i can help your tab 2 back to stock. [email protected]

Thanks, will try both the suggestions one by one.
The only problem with ODIN at the moment is that you can't reset the flash counter, I already have it at 3
Solved
Hi Glenn,
I was able to install CleanRom, by installing the CWM posted in your thread.
Thanks.

When you flashed the 5110 rom, did you have a problem with the language (Mine is currently in a foreign language)?
if so, when you flashed the Clean Rom did your tablet revert to the proper language?
Thanks
You can restore to stock using my guide. (link in signature) It should now be in English.

[HELP] How to Update SGH-i896 2.3.3 to 4.0.3

I have Samsung Galaxy S Rogers Captivate SGH-i896 android 2.3.3 and I want to upgrade it to 4.0.3?

To the best of my knowledge there is no official 4.03 for the i896 (or the i897 that I have.) There are 4.x.x roms for both devices that run on the 2.3.3 (i896) and 2.3.5 (i897) bootloaders. In fact the devs have created/ported roms all the way to 5.1.1.
Are you on the stock 2.3.3 rom for the i896 or a custom rom?
Are your bootloader and modem at version 2.3.3 / KH2?
Is your device rooted?
Do you have a custom recovery installed?
Is there a specific rom you are wanting to flash?
Currently I am using a custom rom based on android 4.2.2. My Captivate is not being used as a phone, I use it as a media player and sports/activity tracker.

Thanks for the reply.
YEs its on stock rom 2.3.3.
Its rooted using superoneclick.
No custom recovery just "Android System Recovery 3e"
I just want to flash 4.0.3 or above.
I do some google but I only got results for your device(i897), I dont know if that procedure will work on my device(i896).

This thread 【Guide】How To flash ANY Captivate ROM from Stock (including ICS) will start you in the direction you need to go. The poster says:
These instructions are the same for the i896 (rogers) and i897 (at&t) captivates. There is NO DIFFERENCE! ALL ROMS/KERNELS WORK ON BOTH PHONES!

Since you are rooted but on stock recovery you can start at step 7 of the Odin method. That will give you a custom recovery which will allow you to flash the custom roms that come as zip files for flashing from a custom recovery. OR, you could start at the beginning of the Heimdall method.
After you get CWM recovery on your phone you will need to flash the ROM of your choice. Do you have a specific rom in mind? If not you can check through the Captivate Development sub-forum

You will have to wade through all of the newer ROMs to find an ICS based ROM. The 1st ICS ROM I saw was on the 6th page of that sub-forum.

Is this the right rom? [ROM][4.0.4] Slim ICS(I897) - Clean, Simple & Fast (54MB) It is for i897 and my device is i896, will it work?
Links were outdated.

Based on TRusso's thread that I quoted and linked above ROMs for the i897 will work on the i896. Of course, I have no way of testing since I have an i897 instead of an i896. I just searched the thread you linked, and found this.
Is there a particular reason you are seeking an ICS ROM and not something newer? (JB or KK)

Search the Slimbean 4.3 thread for wifi issues and solutions. Especially check for alternate kernel recommendations.
Post a link to the thread and I will assist in searching.

I'm not sure how GApps affect wifi and sound.
You could try GApps from a different source: OpenGapps, Bank Gapps, CM GApps, Slim GApps, etc.
Make sure you use a GApps for Android 4.3. After installing it may take a while to update to newer Google Services Framework versions.
