I have a quick question. U want to update to ICS but I'm currently rooted on stock gb rom. Can I update even tho I'm rooted or do I need to odin back to regular stock? If I need to go back to stock can some show me where the tar file for stock for Odin?
Thanks.

Check to see if kies will do the update first, but if not then yeah do that.
Kies software statment : no root to upgrade
Personally I tried and didn't work
I be prefer to installed cwm recovery and take ICS ROM from development is running perfect. That what I have done.

Is this the same KJ6 as leak used in Development section? So WiFi stays not on par as on KD1?
I hope not. At least they are releasing something official. Maybe in 89 days we can get source.

I guess before running official update with kies you have to disable/uninstall lagfix at minimum... This will convert file system back to rfs.
I went ahead and let mini kies do its thing.... yes, I odined the kj1 kernel right on top for the voodoo and it works.
sorry for the dumb question, but after upgrading to gb will super one click work to root, and can we just use odin to flash one of the existing custom gb roms without needing to root. im assuming this had the correct gb bootloaders we need. thanks for the help.

Official kies will take care about bootloader... regarding super one click - newest version has claims to be able to root Samsung gb.
or you can apply pre-rooted kernel as champ1919 did.

there wont be a 2.3.7 update. Only 1 device received 2.3.7 officially and that was the NS4G and that was to fix a WiMax issue.

After following suggestion in GPS thread it works pretty good. I did not tested that much yet, but so far I can tell that it locks on 7+ satellites quicker than is KD1.
I'm here with a rooted Skyrocket (AT&T) on G-Bread 2.3.5 and need to unroot.
I originally rooted while I was on 2.3.4, but about a month and half ago the firmware automatically updated to 2.3.5.
I used DooMLoRD_v3_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su method.
My end-game is to get back to complete stock Skyrocket.
Grazie
1) why would u want to...?
2) flash stock rom via odin.
3) learn to use the search button.
4) have a good day.

I would suggest reading about the leak before you flash it. Flashing stock will trip your flash counter, flashing ICS will not.

I soft bricked my phone on accident, So I decided to un soft brick it. So, I returned it to it's stock form. But, I installed the Rogers stock form. When I was suppose to install the AT&T stock form. Is there a way for me to change from Android Version 2.3.5 GINGERBREAD.RUXKJ7 to a 4.0.3 ICS ?
You can use Odin with the correct ics stock rom to get it back to where you want. See vicom's stickies.(in development section) They have what you need.

I tried installing the Stock files listed there multiple time, I keep getting errors.
Sammobile.com has the official files. You'll need to extract the tar.md5 file out of the zip using 7-zip and flash that with Odin.
You should also try a different usb port first as they seem to be touchy.
If Odin recovers your device you're still ok

Hi!
I stumbled across this post and was wondering which option I should download if I want to flash to a FP8 Stock ROM from my Tweaked 3.2 (FP5) ROM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40766145
Is this possible? Or will I have to return to stock FP5 first?
I am using a Droid Charge on FP5 running Tweaked 3.2. I have Clockwork Mod, Superuser, Titanium Backup, and ROM Manager installed. If possible, I would like to be able to flash it using my ROM Manager.
I want to do this to prep for the impending Tweaked on FP8 (and to shut up those OTA update notifications).

Thanks!
You should return to stock ep4 and work your way up through software updates. I think there are 3 in total now. We don't have a stock Odin for fp1 or later.

So I would essentially be losing my root and updating normally until I get the latest update and can root again?

Hi guys. I need the 4.1.1 stock that I can flash on my phone so I can see if my UI lag is just a problem with 4.1.2. And also I need to know how I can do this. I have a nandroid but I don't know if my custom recovery or bootloader works with it.

Per your nandroid question, you aren't making sense. You can't do a nandroid if you don't have a custom recovery. The status of your bootloader is moot, it works fine either way since its stock, rooted firmware. Your bootloader status matters when you want to flash custom kernels or roms.
Were you looking for the bloated stock tar for Odin which removes root? Both VRBLK3 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 tars can be found in the guide by Open1your1eyes0 thread which is in the dev section. Search and you'll see it.
If you want the VRBLK3 4.1.1 rooted flashable zip for CWM/TWRP then do a search for this in the dev section cuz its fairly old. Flash it in recovery like you would any rom.

Yeah I didn't really word that to well. I needed the 4.1.1 update because I wanted to update to 4.1.2 through Keis because it is supposed to fix lag problems with S3's that came with 4.1.2 stock. I was worried that if I were to do this, it might not be compatible with my recovery. Sorry for the confusion.

Ahh ok, well I answered you in the General sticky as well. Odin flash VRBLK3 4.1.1 or VRBMB1 4.1.2 then you can take OTAs. Any time you flash a stock tar, this removes every trace of custom software except your flash counter in different download mode.
