[Q] How to reset to original?

Just for understanding, how do I reset my GalFit to factory?
Does it have flash counter?
What about original recoverymode?
What about root?
Thank you in advance.

Just flash a firmware for your region using odin and you should be back to scratch.
It would take care of everything even the recovery

And dont forget a factory reset before u upgrade with ODIN wen ur on a custom ROM... it might leave u to a boot loop....

I have a GT-s5670 device and i've upgraded to gingerbread from fryo but now i wanted to degrade it without rooting it.My question is if i use the factory reset function in the setting will it be degraded to fryo?.I really don't know anything serious about Android and stuff so.
Thanks

No.. reset won't downgrade your phone... you have to flash your phone with Odin using stock froyo firmware which contains 4 files namely, PDA, BOOT, MODEM(PHONE) and CSC.

degrading is dangerous but you must flash the firmware which contains bootloader (I think it's called arm11boot)

Yup the tutorial I gave was for that only... but you need to find the appropriate firmware for it.the one which contains four files.

[Q] Root for 101G ICS WW-9.2.2.3 ?

Is there any root for 101G running ICS WW-9.2.2.3 ?????
Thanks in advance

Anyone help

From what I've read, they closed the exploit with the update so ViperMod does not work anymore. You might have to wait for something new.

Thanks for your reply BUT jcarrz1's rom which based on 9.2.2.3 is rooted , How did he do it ?

There's a different between a rooted ROM and trying to root a stock ROM.
He just base his ROM off 9.2.2.3. For those that already have root and CWM they can update to a rooted 9.2.2.3
It's just those who are on stock non rooted 9.2.2.3 will have to find a way to root first before they can install CWM and flash a rooted 9.2.2.3
Hope that make sense.

Right but it's a different process. He take the ROM from ASUS and modified it on the pc. After which if you're rooted and have cwm you can flash his ROM.
Bottom line you need to get root to flash "custom" ROM.
What he does is on the "dev" side of things.

Upgrading AT&T Nexus S i9020A to ICS and then JB?

Hey all,
So I just bought a cheap Nexus S from a dude on Craigslist and want to update it to ICS via OTA, but it doesn't look like there's an update available from Gingerbread (very frustrating). I've heard that in order to upgrade the Nexus S on AT&T to JB, you've gotta have ICS first. How do I go about with this process? Or can I just flash a JB build from XDA here via CWM if I install it? Which is easier? Thanks guys!

If you want to have a clear stock ROM i think better flash stock.img, bootloader and radio via fastboot..
But if you prefere update via cmw also have a look at this.....

S.R.

I'm also considering upgrading I9020A from ICS to JB.
Currently I have custom AOKP rom.
Is it possible to flash stock JB over what I have now ? if yes, how ?

Yes its possible you must flash a full image..
I´ve posted a link above there you can find the images for your phone. you have to flash it via fastboot.
S.R.

If I flash a full image, do I loose Boot-Loader unlock ? Do I need to ROOT again and install CWM ?

This link explains how to have JB stock rooted. Just get the appropriate files for you phone, the OTA needed and your set. Good luck.

you don´t loose bootloader unlock, but if you flash a plain jelly bean stock you loose cmw and root
because i think JB stock ROM ereases CMW . root you loose on stock ROM´s anyway...
so you can flash this rom as an alternative:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1784666
...it´s a stockROM with a few lttle features like boot in recovery menu or battery in %
all other stuff is stock ...it´s also pre rooted and deodexed......all you need...and it don´t erease cmw while installing..
you can try ...it´s your decision..

Tried it!! doesn't work!! Do i have to do a factory reset??? And what firmware?? .50 or .55??

I used .45 and is worked just fine. But .50 and .55 should work fine, too.
The JB update will do the wipe for you (system/data/cache)
What exactly doesn't work?
Any errors?
