NO NEED TO FLASH 2.1! JUST DATA+CACHE WIPE REQUIRED.
Just get to recovery via 3-button combo - VOL+, VOL-, HOME, POWER, then release POWER after you see something on the screen. After you will get to recovery, release all the buttons. Then, scroll down via VOL- and VOL+ to WIPE DATA/FACTORY RESET press home and scroll to YES, press again HOME. Then after its done, scroll to WIPE CACHE PARTITION - press home, scroll to YES, then, after its done, scroll to REBOOT SYSTEM NOW (1st option) and hit HOME button again. That's it! No need of theese unnecessary steps of flashing another firmware. DATA/CACHE will get converted by this process back to Samsung's RFS filesystem (Kyrillos' ROM has ext4 and ext2 - That's why it has been not booting) and you will not get bootloop again

[Q] How to revert back to stock DDLF2 from rooted state?

Hi,
I have rooted DDLF2 (using CF-ROOT). Now that I no more need root (stopped using an app that needed root), I need to get back to stock DDLF2.
I have already unrooted it using recovery mode > unroot.zip method.
All I need is 100% samsung stock DDLF2 on the phone now, without the cf-kernel, cf-recovery and apps that the rooting process brought in.
Please advise...
Thanks

Dude thats simple...
Just flash ddlf2 using odin and u are good to go !!

take the CR-ROOT zp file, open up with winrar, replace the file with DDLF2 normalboot.img, than flash with odin PDA. you will get back the stock kernel or maybe you will have boot looping, if not bootlooping, reboot the phone once, than factory reset.
try at your own risk.

No u have to flash them via Odin only.

use the android development section and download the ddlf2 files then use odin to flash it

Maybe this happened because you didn't clean install so here are the steps:
Download XXKPE from here.
Flash XXKPE by following the XXKPE install instructions (the archive should contain odin3 v1.83 or v1.85 if not here is odin3 v1.85)
Download DDLF2 from here (DDMF1 is the latest value pack so it's smoother and with better battery life)
Install DDFL2 or DDMF1( recommended) by following the value pack instructions (use only odin3 v3.04)
that's it, enjoy your stock rom

[Q] Bricked ... Boot loop.. Samsung Galaxy SL gt-i9003

My phone galaxy sl gt-i9003 was running was rooted and running on codename(android) when I flash some random kernel and bricked it. I then read though lots of xda-developers threads and followed whatever was said there. It goes into recovery and download mode. So i flashed the stock ROM( which i had downloaded from sammobile ). But after that it got stuck in boot loop. Then I tried flashing a few ROM suggestions given here in xda. But each time I either got back a bricked phone or boot loop problem. Help Please!!!:crying:

since u have screwed your along the way to get boot. you better to flash xxkpe or xxkpq with pit
and repartition is amust cause you are on ext4
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

hmmp, i somehow recover on that situation by re partitioning through odin using pit from I9003DXKB2 stock rom froyo...
then flash a I9003DXKP9 gingerbread through odin also
I9003DXKB2 is my SL's original firmware since i bough it though
but might help you...
i did all those because i want my SL to run CM10 Alpha 4 jelly bean
i downloaded the stock roms from "[ROM] STOCK ROMS for GALAXY SL I9003" thread in the developers section...

yes its better to flash with xxkpe and then with xxkpq... me too experience the same problem...
follow this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133787
download firmware from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1004647

Thank you all for replying. I solved the problem. I had forgotten to factory reset after flashing stock rom. Now its as good as new. Also I had this doubt. Is it required that you factory reset after every flash?

How to recover from boot loop?

I was flashing the official ROM 2.3.5 Gingerbread using odin 3.07 for my Galaxy SL i9003 but ended up in boot loop.
Before the boot loop starts, it shows that it can't access to ' /system/csc/SER/system/ ' as in the picture.
How do I solve this?

Usually bootloop can be solved by restoring backup or restart from the beginning. Well, I'm no Dev so I don't know what it meant.

Try to wipe all data again, it always helps me. And if it doesn't work, flash xxkph with pit, let the phone start and then again go into download mode and flash lf2.

flash latona.pit in odin separately..then flash all four files of XXKPE. then u can install DDLF2 or value pack 2.3.6 of ur region....flashing latona.pit will reset ur partition,so may be this will solve ur issue...try flashing in odin v1.83
