Hi Everyone!
I would like to downgrade from ICS 4.0.4 to Honeycomb 3.2. I flashed Honeycomb firmware with Odin but it lead to boot loop.

Now, my tab is on Paranoid ROM v2.5. Everything OK and also ICS ok. But when i tried to flash Honeycomb, my tab got bootloop. Than I flash ICS firmware, its become OK again.
That's why I'm asking are there any ways to downgrade or what are preventing the downgrade process.
Thanks in advance
After flash HC, it will bootloop..so then u need to enter stock recovery..then wipe data n cache..then reboot again..it will work coz i always do like that..

flash ardatdat ICS kernel 4.2 as you are using ICS and then try the whole process again.
make sure after flashing stock Rom you should wipe cache, dalvik cache and factory restore.

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'd flashed GB(Indian) via ODIN being on ICS, there was no brick that time.

I'm rooting a friends at&t skyrocket tomorrow that is on official ics update from at&t and was wondering if that brick bug was still present.I know i might be a little late with this. I was told by a friend that it was only present on the ics leaks for this phone and just wanted to make sure now that this has official ics that i won't have any problems worrying about a brick on my hands by wiping data factory reset in cwm. Go easy on me please I was on the OG evo when all of this brick stuff happened so I never payed much attention to it

Regardless, wiping data/factory reset using cwm won't effect anything. I'm pretty sure that problem was the result of wiping in the phones settings menu (if I remember right).

Honestly, i'm not sure. I never really worried about it. Always use CWM for wiping and never had a problem with anything.
I think it happens when you try to format the internal SD card. Its an emmc bug (I think) but I don't have the bug and my i777 doesn't have it. I thought it was on the specific kernel for the i777 and the international variants.

No sense in rooting if your gonna flash aokp. Just push cwm with Odin and flash away:thumbup: you can flash without rooting as long as you have a custom recovery installed

Just follow the sticky here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1652398
Once you get it rooted with CWM, i'd suggest updating CWM to this version - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1777970
If you're looking for the JellyBean version of AOKP, i'd really suggest this - http://rootzwiki.com/topic/34092-aokp-unofficial-galaxy-s-ii-skyrocket-i727-nov-04-milestone-1/
As far as flashing it, I:
-wipe data/factory reset
-wipe cache
-mounts & storage [format /system]
-advanced [wipe dalvick cache]
-flash rom
-flash gapps
-reboot
*you can do these x2 or x3 each if you wish just to be sure everything is clear*
Hopefully some of this will help if you already don't know any of it. Any other questions, shoot me a pm if you need or i'm sure someone here can help.

i already had that version of aokp and have everything installed and in a folder im prepared . And that the same process i use on my GS3 but i use TWRP. Yea i was looking at that updated version i was gonna flash TWRP through odin for his phone but looks like CWM touch looks better on this phone then it was for my original evo and GS3
edit: do you have any kernel recommendations for this phone? I was gonna flash this kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1949828 but i dont have this phone so i wouldnt really know which kernel work best. He really wants to overclock so thats the only preference he wants to be able to do
Hi, I used this method for my gs2 international. Using the zip method of Cwm and it worked without problems. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28178105 The big bug is also details in the links. Good luck.

You were just stuck in a bootloop. It happens.
Well, I did try to flash the stock rom back. After finish flashing, I tried to flash the cm10 rom once again. I followed all the procedure, still I cant get my xperia to go to cm10. So, in that case what should I do?

Have you made a wipe all user data ?
Sent from my Milestone XT720 using xda app-developers app
I guess you haven't wiped the Davlik cache, wipe it back to factory data, wipe the partition cache (guess that's the name, if I recall) . Anyway, I do not recomment 7.2 !!! Install the CM 6.3 or CronosX !
Flashing back to stock is very simple, so there is nothing to worry about .
thanks for replying

If your phone won't boot & you can't get into Open Recovery you will to flash an SBF back to stock, root your phone & install Open Recovery to be able to flash any custom ROM.

It shouldn't. I know many here (me included when I had this phone) flashed the UK & Singapore SBFs without any issues with the carrier.
Which sbf should i flash
ive read a list of SBFs for the xt720 and there's only two SBFs thats in US. Brightpoint US and Cincinatti Bell US. it could even be Videotron Canada. which one should i use??
Viedeotron!

Hey everyone, I have a HTC One S that's rooted and using cyanogenmod 10. I have ROM Manager and I used the app to make a backup of the stock ROM. Yesterday I tried to restore the stock ROM and btw I performed a wipe of the data, cache, and davlik cache. However when I try to boot up the phone it goes into a boot loop. Any advice on the problem would be greatly appreciated.
