Yeah, this ^
Doky73's thread has GT-S5360 firmware available to download and he has a guide there to help you flash it. Odin is the best, and safest, way to go back to stock.
Press 'Thanks' if I helped!

[CAUTION]To all users who are running ICS..

Caution:
When you are running ICS on you mobile do not downgrade directly to GB using ODIN, if you flash any GB ROM (Stock/Custom) using ODIN your mobile will be bricked.
Live example is myself i have bricked my mobile by do this.
TO avoid this first you restore previous backup using CWM and then flash what ever you want using ODIN.
Even Unbrick your Galaxy R. 2. Downgrade bootloader to v2.0 guide wont help you, I have followed it but no use I have successively flashed stock rom by using this method but still no luck ..
I've created this thread to help all our users who are running ICS, Sorry I've haven't see that one more thread is there for this if you think its duplicate please ask Justin to delete it..
Thanks! Have you managed to un-brick your machine?
Actually, flashing thru odin is Samsung things and it will increase the counter. So, almost every time, I will customize the ROM to flash thru normal CWM flash zip process. At least, I am just 'copying' files to /system/ and all operations are controlled by the updater-script

Yes Ardatdat. I do the same thing. For all the Stock ROMs which i flash via odin, i used to make CWM package. I used to do that so that always i dont have to depend on my PC. Not for the baseband, But atleast for the PDA and CSC part.

Thx for the info buddy. Like to know once thing. When u tried to downgrade to GB via odin, what was ur ICS system info. Is it rooted.? Deodexed? Rooted Kernel? Because I feel Kernel is the problem here. The Kernel that came with this ICS is not a safest one. Ardatdat can speak more about it.
Thanks mj...

Just off-topic wondering, ppl in SSC will say: your machine is fixed and patched with the latest JB rom & kernel. Am I dreaming?
Hey Vikram,
I think we should sticky this thread.. what say??? Very critical piece of information.

Yes, I would love to, but without the kernel source, I could not do much things. At least, I would not get the kernel src before Samsung provide the official ICS update.
Hoping an image from samsung for this rom and then for ardatdat kernel v 1.8.x from you... Hats off to you man. I am a fan of yours.:thumbup:

can u provide me d link i m new on android nd xda
I had rooted my phone using ganeshbiyer's cfroot posted here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1331253
I booted into recovery---> root/unroot ---> unroot. It said Unrooted
After booting, the apps cwm and tweaks are still there
Can anyone tell me how do I completely unroot my phone? As in, bring back to normal stock rom condition
Easiest way would be to flash stock rom(of your choice) using odin.

You can find it here .. http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/
Just search the I9003 Firmware
or here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1377104
Since ICS is not officially available for our device & u have ICS installed, only unrooting will not give u ur warranty back.
U need to re flash the stock firmware again to be back on warranty.
This will help u to flash :

Hi and welcome to the Galaxy SL Forum, if you want to root update first to Gingerbread, try searching 'General Guide for i9003 Noob'
And for your questions:
1. No, you don't need internet, you only need it when you download ROMs, tweaks and CF-Root.
2. For downloading ICS apps on Froyo, no you can't . You can run ICS apps if you install custom ROMs that based on CM9 or CM10
Good luck with the phone mate

He didnt say he wanted ICS apps on froyo. He was asking if he would be able to download ICS apps straight from Play Store if he installed a ICS/+ custom rom. The answer is yes.

Is this what u asked..?
Sent from my GT-I9003 using xda premium
Yes. My procedure to go to ICS or JB based CROM is
1) flash xxkpe as per guide here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133787 .. download ROM file from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1004647
2) flash ddlf2 per http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1741370
3) Use CF-Root to root ddlf2 per http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1331253
4) Flash ICS or JB ROM of your choice, ONLY AFTER READING THE PARTICULAR THREAD
I'd still prefer you do more searching and reading before attempting something that you dont understand completely.

I'll answer your PM here.
As per what I read here, it is advised (by people's experience) that it's better to flash xxkpe(using ODIN) 1st then to a gingerbread valuepack firmware(i used ddlf2) of your choice, then to root it. Then flash any ICS/JB ROM of your choice.
Also, you need to understand you'll lose everything on your phone when you flash xxkpe using odin. Also, once rooted, you'll be unable to use Kies to restore your data. So, before attempting all this, make sure you backup everything that you'll regret losing.

there are many youtube tutorials and you can easily search for them and choose what is best for you but the thing you need to know about is that for upgrading your firmware from froyo to gingerbread you dont need rooting.. you can do it officially by downloading Samsung Kies or by following the simple steps from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1894737
Now after upgrading to gingerbread you can root your phone by following the simple steps using the link as above.
its okay to get confused the first time but follow the amazing simple steps from the above link and it should be just fine
