Hello!
I've been looking for instructions as to how I can remove/uninstall my custom ROM (Currently POSEIDON ROM) but it doesn't seem to be clear and specific? I didn't do a backup or anything so I was thinking if I could simply reflash XXKPE then XXKPH.
Please assist. Thanks!

Yes that's exactly what you need to do. But you'll lose all your data/apps unless you back it up.

Xxkpq is 2.3.6. Just flash it as pda in odin and definitely you will loose your all data

Anurag, yes you'll loose your data. You can use mybackup pro for backing up sms, contacts, settings etc and titanium pro for backing up apps.

thanks guys, my doubt has been resolve..
i just thought that it is not possible and will brick the phone since there are different version..
one more question that i am confused, since i am in froyo version and it says on the tut that in XXKPE to flash "twice" before continuing flashing XXKPH, "twice" means flashing again the PDA or all of the file of XXKPE?
All the files except the latona.pit file.

No need for xxkph. XXKPE>factory reset>XXKPQ>factory reset>Ganesh cf root> Poseidon ROM>Wipe then restore apps by TB.
If you have problems. Try flashing XXKPE twice

I would start reading some posts in the development forum, and other specific topics on the various steps you will need to take. But...
First you will need to install a custom recovery, like clockwork mod(cwm) or twrp.
Second, you will need to find a ROM specific to your device, making sure to check your model number and only installing a ROM if it is intended for your devices model.
Third, flash the rom .zip in the previously installed recovery.
That's really all you need to do, but you should read how to take those steps in the threads for them and your device.

HI Gurus,
I own the samsung galaxy sgh t959v running on official tmobile stock gigerbread 2.3.6. Recently, I've tried to update it to run on JellyBean(4.1.1) trying to follow the below tutorial.
First you need the ODIN files(to go back to stock) : goo.gl/An7S (scroll down for where it says download and download the 4 files in there )
put this file in your sd card with the other one . if you dont have this file then you wont be able to use recovery mod :goo.gl/FuHFJ
Then you need to root your phone : goo.gl/oW4WO
USE THIS LINK (FOR ROOT)IF NOT FIRST ONE WORKING : dl.dropbox.com/u/13517705/SGH-
Then you gotta update your phone to CM-7 (gingerbread)(2.3.7) : goo.gl/rjFRj
then , you need chimera 2.2 ( ICS )(4.0.4) : d-h.st/uwi
and finally , you need to install panaroid android(JB)(4.1.1): goo.gl/Frl3z
gapps : goo.gl/jN55d

tried update my phone to CM-7 (gingerbread)(2.3.7) : goo.gl/rjFRj only to land into this problem.
I am not able to boot up to download mode either so that I can re-flash the basic stock version.
tried installing chimera 2.2 ( ICS )(4.0.4) : d-h.st/uwi as well but no luck.
I've tried everything from trying to wipe out the data/factory reset.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance,

You flashed vibrant (SGH-T959) ROM and recovery and not SGS 4G (SGH-T959V).
These are 2 completely different devices.
I hope you haven't bricked your phone.
Try the one-click back to stock - specifically section 2...
and if it works, flash only ROMs appearing in this forum development section.
Good luck!
It works

You can flash any of the ROMs listed in these SGS4G forums. However, make sure you read the instructions carefully for each ROM, as some require you to have already been on an ICS ROM due to file system changes. Do not flash anything for the Vibrant or any other phone or you will have serious problems. Good luck!

Antonx basic with a twist or bhundvens blastoff v2.5 are two good ones to use
If you don't care for GPS - I'd go with one of our great aries 4.2.2 ROMs.
till this fuctionality is added,
If you want a GPS on your daily driver, you'll have to flash an ICS ROM, such as
AOKP, CM9, HebMIUI, Ultragen....

Hi Guys,

and enjoying the awesome rom the developers have come up with. battery backup seems to be pretty good.
However, I had to execute an additional step which was not there in the instructions i.e., after
step 5. Flash the ROM using CWM/TWRP

phone boots up to ClockworkMod Recovery (CWM) 6.0.1.2. Then I had to install cm-9-20130227-UNOFFICIAL-galaxys4gmtd.zip once again to finish the process. Hope I've not missed something here.
itzik2sh, I'll give a try to the latest aries 4.2.2 ROMs sometime later.
