Make a nandroid backup before you flash so you can go back to stock (but it's unlikely )

Yest, but nandroid not making the whole copy of system.
Without kernel , etc.
I want to get android 4.04 from samsung but I can't find this firmware XXBLE2 just older ones.

Hi,
Same problem for backup :crying:

You can try to install CWM first and then backup your system using CWM. When the backup is finished you can flash CM9 and if you don't like CM9 (most unlikely) you can restore the backup you made from stock using CWM.

Even CWM not copy kernel.
If I install CM, later I won't be able to restore the whole system- not be working because of CM kernel.
In that case somebody know how co copy the kernel from my tablet ??

Which are the bugs in cm9 experimental 4.0.4 for p5110?

I do not what bugs are in cm9 but If will be something wrong I want to back to my stock 4.04 ( I can't find stock 4.04 rom from samsung ) but if I make a copy by CM I still have to make a copy kernel but I don't know how to make it.
btw:
On CM9 everything working ?? ( wifi, bt, gpu, deep sleep, )

There is an ICS OS made via Revolver. in the development section
Download that OS
Backup your apps.
Nandroid backup
Wipe
flash
restore apps
enjoy ICS.
Not worth losing #SU access over to get the official Revolver's runs much faster.

[Q] About flashing custom ROMs

Hi everyone!
I am fairly new with android and I just rooted my transformer last night. I was also able to install a custom ROM, revolver 3.11.1 (Honeycomb).
If I want to flash an ICS ROM (Revolver, Android Revolution or Codename), from a custom HC ROM, do I have to do anything else? Or can I just flash it straight away?
Based on what I've read, if ever I wish to downgrade back to honeycomb, I would not just flash a honeycomb ROM. I have found a few guides on how to downgrade back to Honeycomb from ICS. Is this correct?
Since you have cwm, It's as simple as going into recovery and flashing your desired custom rom.
Normal procedure (to avoid conflicts/problems) is to wipe and/or format before flashing a new rom.
A good tool to have is the superwipe lite script found in the Revolution HD thread. (I personally use that instead of the wipe option that is in CWM).
Oh...and you can also backup your current ROM and state by using the backup function in CWM BEFORE you wipe/format. Just in case you don't like the new rom and want to revert.
FYI...if you go ICS and want to restore your HC rom...a restore then a reflash of the HC Rom is needed.
Thanks for the reply!
Just to clarify, once I flash an ICS custom ROM and didn't like it, I can't just flash back to a HC custom rom or stock HC rom. Is this correct?

Yup. Even if you use the restore function...you need to flash that particular HC ROM over the restore. (Because the backup doesn't backup the kernel...so if you don't flash the HC rom...the ICS kernel is still there...and you won't be able to boot)
sorry to hijack the thread but my question is similar so i dun want to start a new one
I am currently on revolver 3.11 as well and thinking to update to a ICS custom rom
I am using the blade OC kernel at the moment. I just want to ask if the new rom comes with the ICS kernel or do I need to look for an ICS kernel to put it manually?
Also, I just want to check that Ti Backup does not back up downloaded data right?
Thanks a million

Everything is included when you flash one of the available ICS ROM.
There is no custom ICS kernel right now anyway as Asus have not released the kernel source.

[Q] JB update and custom kernel

Hi all,
I'm sorry about my stupid question but I really don't know nothing about that . I had rooted and flashed my NS and installed the matr1x kernel (very good btw), and now I knew that JB will be available to NS. My question is, need I back to stock kernel to receive the update?
Thanks

You have to understand that installing an OTA (official update) on a rooted device regardless of what kernel can cause problems, as it did with my Nexus S before. I suggest you make a NANDroid backup at all times before you install any ROMs, official or Custom. You can also use Titanium backup and others.
There's still a slight while until the new JB 4.1 comes out. It's suggested that you install a Custom JB 4.1 ROM for your Nexus S as though you don't cause any problems. I think it's OK if you do it with the kernel pre-installed. But people always install the Custom ROM THEN they install the Kernel, I think installing a new ROM always overwrites the kernel, if it comes with it.
EDIT:
In short, wait for the JB Custom ROM and you don't have to revert back to stock kernel, when you do the update it will automatically overwrite. Most Custom ROMs come with Stock/ordinary kernels. So then the user can flash whatever kernel they like in your case, matr1x.
Wish you the best of luck, and I am waiting for the Nexus S JB to come out as soon as possible
Ota binary patches the boot image iirc. So it can get all messed up.

I didn't any backup before flashing a new kernel :crying:, so what can I do now if I want my stock kernel back?? What's a NANDroid (I know that is a tool but how can I do it?) ? Is Titanium bkp easily?

I prefer wait for stock JB Rom and probaby I'll , but, can I already find some JB ROM?

I don't need to remove the kernel even unroot my cell, alright?

A NANDroid backup is a internal memory backup. You can create one by booting into Recovery (Power off your phone and Hold Power and Down on your volume buttons.) If you rooted your phone and unlocked your bootloader (that's what you had to do to flash a new kernel), you should be able to load ClockworkMod or TeamWin Recovery and do a backup of your phone.

There's one rom but it's a port from the SDK and the amount of major bugs is high so it's not recommended but you could try another custom rom meanwhile, I can't go back to stock after trying custom roms, like AOKP and Cyanogenmod 9. Make sure you backup your apps and some settings (not everything will be compatible between stock and custom so pay close attention to which system setting you'll backup) with Titanium Backup.
To sum it all up for you
There's a Jelly Bean release which is unstable and has no sound, and will not be fixed until the REAL version comes out.
NANDroid backs up the whole internal memory on the phone including the system, it can be done from clockworkmod recovery.
Titanium backup, backs up specific settings and information that you choose, available from the playstore.
You don't need to unroot or go back to a STOCK kernel in order to flash a CUSTOM ROM. DO not however flash a STOCK rom after rooting, as at times that can cause problems.
If you want to go back to a STOCK ROM after rooting a device, there's a way, check this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1063664
and choose your Nexus S model: To acquire model, go to Settings - About - Baseband version. if it says I9023 at the start that's your Nexus S's model
Choose one of the Fastboot Stock ROMs and use the Fastboot method to flash the ROM. That is a good way to go back to STOCK ROM if anything bad happens
By the way you should expect the new OTA official 4.1 update for the Nexus S to be on your model's page.
NOTE: Using Fastboot to flash a ROM is very clean. However this will delete all your data and if you do everything correctly will lock your bootloader and unroot your phone. So use Fastboot only when you really feel the need to.
Cheers
and stay tuned for Jelly Bean :victory:

That means, when I receive the official 4.1 update notification, I should unroot my phone first and just install it after?

OK first off, do not install the update using the system update method from about, as that is a 100% stuff up if you're still rooted or on a Custom ROM.
However to update I think flashing a stock ROM but USING Clockworkmod works fine!
Someone please confirm, as I am not 100% sure
However what I am sure about is that if you run into any troubles installing your STOCK ROM using Fastboot is very very good and clean, however there are 2 things:
1. You will wipe everything COMPLETELY
2. You need the ROM to be in a fastboot format kind of way for you to flash it
There's a guide and everything for fastboot.

Personally I will wait for a custom ROM for 4.1 if it doesn't take too long as that's guaranteed and will obviously be faster and safer to install on a ROOTED device.
Someone still confirm if installing Stock ROM while over Custom ROM while ROOTED through CWM is OK or not!?
Hummm, ok...
I'm already using the Stock ROM, I just flashed a new kernel, and I prefer install the stock kernel and unroot my phone. Just to let it clean.
After I install the JB official update, maybe I flash and root again, depends of Google :laugh:
Do you know where can I download a trust official 4.0.4 kernel from the forums? My phone is a Nexus S I9020AUCKJ1, Version Number: IMM76D
Thanks!!!

[Q] (How To) (Galaxy Tab P3100) Restore Stock Rom (4.1.1) from CM10.1 Milestone 2

I have p3100. I just installed Cyanogen Mod 10.1 M2 on my galaxy tab P3100 .
I am not liking this rom . No offense. But the stock Rom was far better.
My plan now is to install Sungsonic Hd. It looks cool and have all the features of Stock with extra features.
Now, AFAIK before installing this rom, i have to revert back to 4.1.1 from 4.2.2. (because sungsonic is based on 4.1.1) Right? If not please correct me.
Now, please tell me if i can directly install sungsonic hd? or if i have to install the stock firmware?
If i have to return to stock firmware, how can i do that?
Important
I have Odin3 1.85. The stock Rom file and ARIESVE.ops (somewhere i found that this file is needed to revert back to stock rom) ..
Now how do i use these files and return to stock rom? Please xplain it in steps if possible. Also tell me what do i need to wipe and etc. Like do i need to do wipe cache etc?
Thank you guys. I love XDA developers btw. :good:
/ok guys.
Now what I did is that i installed Sungsonic by CWR mode by choosing zip from sd card. I wpied all cache and did factory reset.. everything as the page of this rom suggested.
I have been able to install this rom easily but i think something is wrong. 4 or 5 apps are not opening properly. When i click on widgets bar, the system ui crashes..
Now, how am i supposed to revert back to stock rom ?Now my current ROM is Sungsonic rom
You should have made a backup of your stock ROM, before flashing anything. This would have made recovery quite easy.
Well, i didnt make any backup or anything.
Now, can i revert back to stock rom?
Well, guys i just installed the custom rom by choosing stock rom md5 file in pda. Then installed.
All went sleekly. Thank you guys. Now I will be Installing a new rom again. Please delete this thread mods.

[Q] cwm advice

Hi all
I have samsung galaxy gt P-6200 ; android 2.3 __ P6200XXKL7__kernel2.6.36......and I just root it.
Rooting was easy ; cwm.zip started fine but didn't work, it's froozen at REBOOTING SYSTEM, so. ..I reboot.
Now what cwm recovery do I need ? Because I want to do a nandroid backup of my stock rom, than flashing custom roms.
I made a lot of search in Xda and internet about android 3.2 but no luck...Or I'm missing something.
Thanks a lot
Hi again
I installed from market online nandroid backup, made a backup, than this cwm : p6200_CWMR_20111214.5.0.2.7.
Now cwm is working, and still there even if after factory reset. ( I made a second backup).
Both Backups are in the internal memory.
Will bacup works after flashing new roms even if they aren't in external sd card ? Can I flash because this ( >*[ROM][4.2.1] Android Open Kang Project - JB MR1 UNNOFICIAL) didn't work.
Thank again
I flashed stock rom P6200XXMC3 with odin ; every thing works great.
Now my bedroom looks delicious !
see u :laugh:
Hi
Hi
As I can see its an upgrade not a flash.
Ther's no difference between Roms if they are unbranded , I had XXKL7 and upgrade with XXMC3 .
I lost cwm recovery too , I think because of the stock rom.
Is that correct ?
thanks to our XDA and developpers
Good luck
Hi
I flashed cwm recovry 6... , super user than I made a nandroid backup.
After that It was time for the wonderful custom roms in the development section ...waaaaw , It's faster than ever and very easy to install , they are great.
See you
