Want to revert to stock

Hi guys,
I got CM7 on my SMS, but how would i go about getting stock 2.3.2 or 2.3.3 rom on my phone. Any links would be appreciated.
cheers

there are 3 downloads you can use in the DEV section to revert back to stock
2 nandroid backup
and the Odin with the original ROM the phone shipped with
i was thinking doing the same, to get the latest 2.3.3 OTA upgrade

I wish we had an update.zip of a rooted stock image =/

How do I get a stock recovery and kernel for my A510?

Hi guys,
Recently, I have been having incessant problems in updating my A510 (which has been restored to fully stock using the firmware on Acer's website), and someone told me this might be due to running a custom kernel. Is it true that using the firmware on Acer's website, the kernel doesn't return to stock? Also, what about getting stock recovery? If you flash the official ROM, doesn't it automatically go back to stock recovery? If so, why during the update process, the message "Recovery verified failed" come up?
Thanks!

[Q] Come back to stock (P5100)

Hi
I'm coming to flash Pac ROM 4.2.2, but if I want to come back to stock, I have only to flash Rom stock (4.2.2 XEF)?
thanks

Yes, that will get you back to stock, but will not make your warranty valid. You must use TriangleAway to reset your flash counter and unroot if you want it to be completely stock and have a valid warranty.
Hope that helps. ;]

[Q] 4.4.4 OTA Update from 4.4.2 rooted and unlocked with Mods

Thank you guys in advance for your help but I just had a few questions. I am running 4.4.2 currently with the stock rom rooted and unlocked bootloader. I have however issued a few Mods such as extreme power saving and built in tether. Can I just load the 4.4.4 firmware and radios, switch back to stock recovery and take the OTA to 4.4.4 without having to wipe anything or since I have used some mods do I now have to wipe my device and put everything back after getting the 4.4.4 update. The reason I ask is I like having the stock features while just using google now launcher on top of sense. Also would any of you have a recommendation on a ROM to achieve this same thing so I dont have to go through this everytime I want to take the newest OTA if it is not possible to take without wiping.

Flash the ruu here. That will get you to 4.4.3 the easy way and make you 100% stock so you can take the ruu. Then flash twrp and flash su or the rooted Rom of your choosing.

The RUU is one way to go, although I would never update via OTA...
Another would be to flash the firmware and radios from here:

And then Scott's rooted stock rom from here:

He usually has them up a few hours after a new OTA has been released. Even better - try his stock, debloated CleanROM once it's out.
This way you can keep your recovery. You can even try to just flash the 4.4.4 firmware and radios and see if it runs your current 4.2 ROM ok. But I would not update the rom from version to version without a wipe.
The setup is the price to pay for getting a new and hopefully better Android version.

[Q] OTA Updates to Stock ROM w/ Non-Stock Kernel and Recovery

Hey everyone,
So for the past couple of days I've been getting the notification that 5.1.1 has been downloaded and is ready to install, but I'm running a rooted stock ROM with CWM and ElementalX kernel, so I wasn't sure what would happen if I accepted the update. So my question to you all is just that; what will happen if I OTA update? I would imagine I'll lose root access and have to re-root, but would the OTA also flash a stock kernel and get rid of CWM? Or will the update create a load of problems since I'm not completely stock?
Thanks in advance for your help.

The OTA update will fail.
As of Lollipop, you have to have everything completely stock (including the recovery) to take an OTA update. You're better off just flashing another pre-rooted ROM or custom ROM which has been updated to 5.1.1.
