[Q] Back to the Gingerbread

So guys since we have the choice which are u doing
unroot to stock gingerbread
flash to stock gingerbread
wait for the dev gingerbread
I'm getting ready to do all of the above...because I'm a crackflasher...and I have to try everything available, lol.]
Stuck on vacation
Maybe there will be a good rom worth upgrading to by the time I get back, but the baseband seems to be the biggest advantge. I'll have to do both.
I run Cyanogenmod, I'll just stick with that. Here soon they'll incorporate everything useful from it.
Well, nevermind...I restored stock, stock recovery, unrooted, tried to update, but found out that my phone is a 999DWP...so reflashed cwm, rerooted, and back to my cm7 nandroid.
Guess the G2x community isn't for a good pole.
IM definitely waiting on the devs to play with it.
Did anybody get the back to the future reference?

[Q] Flashing back to stock after Gingerbread

i am selling my phone and want to flash back to stock for the new owner so they can get updates. Right now im running KK4. Can I Use odin One Click back to 2.1 then let Kies update to 2.2 with out bootloader problems? Will Odin or kies change my gingerbread bootloaders. I dont know much about rules of bootloaders. Any help would be greatly appreciated and repped.
Thanks
I highly doubt There will be updates...
Stick with kk4.
Or you could just flash a 2.2 package and skip the kies step. Bootloaders are backwards compatible. Ginger boots work with earlier versions of Android.
I want to make sure kies updates just in case AT&T releases gingerbread for the captivate. Also im having battery drain problems with kk4.
hardly anyone ever gets keis to work after custom roms, and if you want 2.2 the odin flash 2.2. why odin flash 2.1 then upgrade? dont make no sense!
and when gingerbread does get released, it will be ALL OVER THIS PLACE!!! new Odin flashes, new roms, new source, new kernels, new theads.... MINUTES AFTER RELEASE. Waaaayyyyyy before you would notice by randomly checking with keis....
xda.
not keis.
The point is to get this phone truly stock so who ever buys it can get ota or keis updates if there happen to be any in the future.

Search for Stock KB2 by Adam Outler.
I just did this when I had to replace my cappy (power button wouldn't respond half the time). I flashed back to 2.1 with the one click from DG then used kies to update to 2.2 with no problem.
I like to recommend kb2 now because a lot of refurbs and later builds came with that build. Also, trying to flash a Froyo shipped device with JF6 well cause a bootloop. So, as a blanket statement I say use KB2.

Can someone please help me get back to Gingerbread?

First off, just let me say that I am not a complete newbie, but I am fairly new to this so bare with me, I am sorry.
Ok so here is the story. I got the phone new with froyo and then got the OTA update for gingerbread.. I hated the the new camera app, so I rooted, flash clockwork recovery and flashed back to Froyo. Well I got sick of Froyo because besides the camera, gingerbread to me is way better. But this is where I have problems. I tried to flash back to stock gingerbread and it said "installation aborted" every time and I have no idea why. I tried to update through LG updater with no luck, and I dont know why, maybe baseband? So I get pissed and unroot and flash back stock recovery, which is where I am at now. All I want is to get back to gingerbread and be official so I can be all set to get any future updates if we are so lucky to get one? I'm not expecting an update but I'll be happy with the phone in gingerbread with stock rom, I had my fun with custom roms, dont care for it anymore. I didnt do any back ups, and im currently on 2.2 everything stock.
Can anyone help me? Point me in the right direction?
back up everything you want off your phone to your PC. This will wipe everything. Follow the guide exactly.

[Q] Going back to Stock

I'm going to sell my sgs4g soon, since I'm getting the S2. I want to revert back to stock, and I know my way around when flashing a new ROM, but frankly I don't know how to go back to stock, like, what ROM should I go back to, KB5? KD1? and then upgrade via kies to latest stock?
Or is there an updated stock ROM i could odin?
Also, what happens with lagfix? does it go back to stock status (i.e off) ?
I'm currently on AOSPStyle X, KJ6, 2.3.7, kernel 2.6.35.7-sms-jk6.... lagix on.
Also, I may need to format sdcard, since there's a patition for lagfix conversion to work 100% of time.

Downgrade from GB 2.3.6 back to Froyo 2.2.1

Samsung Galaxy S 4G
My phone came with Froyo 2.2.1 when I bought it. Later on I updated it to Gingerbread 2.3.6 using kies mini. After updating to 2.3.6 I tried flashing back to froyo using odin but then my phone got bricked but i fixed it. After fixing it my phone went to Gingerbread 2.3.5 then I used odin again to go to GB 2.3.6. Now I want to go back to 2.2.1 Froyo the way how my phone came like. I want to go back to froyo because the wifi is weak now that I have gingerbread. So is there any way that I can go back to Froyo 2.2.1 if i currently have gingerbread 2.3.6? If its possible can please someone post a easy tutorial to do because I would like to go back.
Thanks
The WiFi issue is a placebo effect t. It has been proven Samsung used some witchcraft to make it appear stronger. I still connect to my routers for the same range I just don't see them if they are just out of range. The WiFi radio on the his device is not the greatest.

Go here:

You need to register then search t959v. You wanna DL KD1. Then look for a guide to using ODIN and flash.
Ok I went on the website and Im downloading the PDA: T959VUVKD1 ## and CSC: T959VTMBKD1. Would I just need the Modem and thats it? Could i get the Froyo KD1 modem from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1480418 and put each thing in its place in ODIN and which things do I put a check next to on ODIN? Could this brick my phone? Can anyone tell me a guide how to do this?
Can he just Keis back to Froyo, or has it been so long that anyone was trying to flash Froyo that it is Gingerbread only?

I dont know what the CSC File for ODIN? So would it be okay like i said above if i put the T959VUVKD1 in PDA and kd1.tar.md5 in the modem and it will flash back my phone to froyo 2.2.1 if im on gingerbread 2.3.6? If im doing it on ODIN to i click re-partition?
Please someone help!
It's been a long time since anyone wanted to be on Froyo. As I recall, Gingerbread flashes a new bootloader, so it is likely non-trivial to go back.
The binaries for Froyo may also be hard to come by here as many were hosted in sites since shuttered by the FBI.
If you really want to go back, you should have some patience or dig through the archives here to see if you can find anything.
You might want to flash one of the recent custom builds of GB while you wait to see if you prefer them to stock. I didn't much like the stock bloat but enjoyed Valhalla Black when I was on GB. FB's version is in my sig. There are a couple other versions of GB that have been more recently updated as well.
