Back to Frozen 1.1.0 from Leaky Gingerbread?

I was using Syndicate Frozen Version 1.1.0 with Twilight Zone. I tried the Leaky Gingerbread, it's great but I'll wait until the Samsung crap is gone from it. How do I go back? I've searched everywhere and have NO idea.

Just Odin the EC05 modem, wipe data in Clockworkmod and flash the same as always.

I think you can't flash froyo over gb. I say that because when I was on cm7 a4 I tried it and it failed. The only options are nandroid back or odin. If stock gb is different I'd really like to be corrected.

I can't get CWM to go on my phone. It's not on there at all.
* I'm not even able to do a regular reset or wipe. I rooted with Gingerbreak.

Then I guess you're going to have to ODIN EC05 then flash SFR 1.1.0 from there.

This, because you must have used the ED12 TAR and not the zip version.

I did use the tar. Thank you! I was driving myself crazy.

Glad you got it all sorted out.

CWM Freeze on reBoot, Odin no Dice

When I tried to switch from ACS EI22 4 to 5 my phone force close looped because of some issue with launcher pro. I went to reflash the rom from CWM and ever since my phone won't properly load roms from CWM. When the phone has a custom rom it boots right to CWM when I power them up only to freeze again when I try to boot the rom from recovery.
I have Odined to stock EC05, and one click flashed CWM. I have flashed pre-rooted EC05 roms. I Odined to EI22 & EC05 modem Tar and went on to install ACS recovery over CWM.
I have Odined multiple times on multiple stock roms and custom roms. The problem persists. Once I'm in recovery (I've tried 3 versions) and I click "reboot" the phone locks with a black screen with the home buttons on or an image of the clockwork logo (depending on which version I'm trying).
The strange thing is, all of the stock roms work just fine and I was able to install EI22 from OTA with no problems. But who wants that icky CIQ? or Sprint nascar/football/bloatware? Yuck!
I've had some limited success with simple pre-rooted deodex etc roms I flash from Odin, but sometimes recovery loads when I power up the phone. And sprint keeps wanting to force the update on me.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I've tried everything I can think of and have searched, to no avail, for a solution.

Does anyone think this is a hardware issue? One of the kernels I tried on ACS 5 was a beta.
If so, how should I go about getting it fixed since it is under warranty. I do have accidental damage coverage.

Most likely not hardware related. I say that because you said you can run stock just fine.
I would try the new CWM5 just released and see if the problem is still there.

That's what I thought and why I continued to Odin and one-click root different types of CWM and ACS recovery.
I'm going to see if the repair store nearby can run a diagnostic. Otherwise I'm going to stay away from any modifications that require me to use CWM for anything since I was able to Odin a custom rom (but it was EC05).
Hopefully Samsung will release the EI22 modem tar and someone will release a pre-rooted version that I can Odin.

I tried odin flashing different recoveries yesterday. Odin gave them a pass but they wouldn't boot from the 3 finger salute (like they didn't install).
I've never tried to install CWM this way so I'm not sure if you need to be rooted before hand or you need a specific kernel.

So it goes back into stock recovery with 3 finger? Easiest fix is Odin in a prerooted EC05 ROM tar like EC05plus then flash a Gingerbread ROM then flash the modem delta.

Yes it goes into stock recovery. Unfortunately flashing in CWM has been the problem that lead me to flashing CWM through Odin. For more detail see the original post. Whenever I try to flash something through CWM the recovery has problems and it fails to load the rom that is installed.
I'm trying as many alternatives to pinpoint the problem. I'm going to try switching SD cards and see if the problem resulted from some kind of data corruption there. Should have an update on that sometime tonight.
If I can't figure out and fix the problem I'll be at the mercy of sprint or if I want root I'll have to wait for a pre-rooted EI22 rom complete with modem tarball so I can odin that.

I saw the OP but didn't see where you Odin'd a prerooted EC05 ROM like EC05plus. Then flash a GB ROM right after. Just 2 steps. Then if you want the modem one more step to flash the delta. It's worth a shot?

I can't flash from CWM no matter how CWM gets on my phone. I tried exactly what you said. My original post says I Odined multiple stock and custom roms. I didn't get around to CWM flashing on a different card tonight, finals got me busy busy.
Enjoy your turkey day!

Thanks, you too.
So if Odining the EC05Plus ROM didn't get you a working 3 finger salute CWM, then maybe you should try ROM Manager and downloading CWM 5.X.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1357655

It must be a hardware problem. I can odin a rom with CWM and it will boot fine. However if I ever try to open CWM the rom will never load again as the phone boots to recovery and get's stuck there.
I confirmed this by Odin flashing and then going into clockwork and not even flashing anything and it got stuck. Flashing in CWM will actually install things as I can change CWM within CWM but I still get stuck when trying to load the rom.
So the only way for me to enjoy a rooted phone is to refrain from CWM recovery.
I went back to a EH17 odined pre-rooted rom. When EI22 gets a modem tar hopefully someone will make a pre-rooted, deodexed, zipaligned odin tar (and if I'm lucky, CiQ will be removed).
Otherwise I'd like to get a replacement but explaining the problem to sprint is kind of a catch 22 since the issue only appears when I load a custom recovery.

How about flashing CWM 5.027 and downloading ROM Manager and installing 5.027 through that as well. Rom Manager actually downloads the CWM 5 and keeps it packed on your sd card and installs it everytime you use it. It allows ROM Manager to be able to update the CWM whenever a new version comes out.

BLAZER ROM Install Issues...help?

I just decided last night to switch from Calkulin to Blazer so I could try it out.
The results were disastrous.
I took my phone, which was running on Rogue Desperado Kernel, EL29 Modem, Calk 2.8.1, and backed up everything. Then I booted into ROGUE recovery, and flashed CALKS FORMAT ALL. This was a success.
Then I flashed BLAZER ROM 3.7. This was a success, according to my little black and green screen.
**HOWEVER, upon reboot I was stuck at SAMSUNG GALAXY S II screen. I waited...and waited...and waited. It never moved past this screen.
Then I tried booting into recovery - no dice. I had to download the Stock EL29 Kernel/Modem/ROM ODIN Full Restore and flash everything back to square one.
Once this was completed, I rooted using the Auto Rooter and took my phone to EL29 with CWM. Then I flashed my Kernel over to the stock EL29 with Rogue Kernel (this is easier to use than stock CWM IMO).
FINALLY, I booted into recovery, flashed CALK FORMAT ALL, then flashed BLAZER ROM 3.7. Now I'm back to the ** from earlier in this post - SAMSUNG GALAXY SII is on the screen, and I can't get past it or boot into recovery.
I'm going to run through the steps again to bring my phone back to stock, but I'd really like to try this ROM out. Does anyone have any ideas?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

With no background information, it sounds like it may have been a bad download. Have you tried downloading another copy of Blazer rom?
The process you described was correct, and sometimes bad downloads lead to infinite splash screens.

OK it looks like you correct. I re-installed Calk 2.8.1 with no issues and did a restore through Titanium. I then got a message saying "download incomplete" of BLAZER ROM. It's odd, because the download went through fine yesterday and the notification cleared before I booted into Recovery to flash everything.
Now I'm trying to re-download the ROM and the link is down with no mirror. Does anyone have a copy saved that they can create a mirror with?

The EXACT same thing happened to me and I did the same as the OP. I followed the instructions, I thought, verbatim. I'm not a newb when it comes to flashing, I've been doing this for years. Stupid me, I flashed a ROM and locked up the phone for a few hours until I got home from work. The only thing that brought it back was Odin to stock and start all over. The only roms that work for me are cal's rooted stocks, his custom roms and strong Steve's Smurf love ROM. Such is life.

was trying to download the new blazer rom and seems the link is broken so will try later.

PhantomHacker is having issues with his host (see quote below), I'm sure he'll have it handled asap. Blazer ROM is awesome, hope you guys enjoy once he gets it back up and running.

Im not sure if you are or not but if you are trying to download the rom from your phone that is the first mistake. I have had allot of bad luck doing it this way. Always download it from the computer and never transfer it through Kies air always use a usb cable. I cannot tell you how much trouble I have run into when trying to download from the phone or transfer roms/themes wireless.

PH's site is back. Download to PC

OK I'm all good. Someone posted a mirror last night for the Blazer Rom (nibrwr notes that PhantomHacker's site is back up today for anyone else trying to download) and I downloaded it on my phone.
rbtrucking - I know you mentioned to always download on PC and transfer, but I've had almost no issues with the downloads direct to the phone. I did all of the Calk install when I first rooted this way, and the Blazer issue was probably my own fault, I must have ended the download before the file finished and then tried to Flash it.
I downloaded the full Blazer Rom on my phone directly yesterday and flashed it in Recovery and it worked fine.
Everything is working perfectly, and I've got it overclocked to 1.35GHZ. Stable as all hell and pulling over 5,000 on Quadrant, whatever the hell that test is good for.
Thanks for the help everyone.

Odin Questions

Hi all, I'm new here (well, not to XDA) as I just purchased this phone 2 days ago. I love it so far. It's such and upgrade from my LG Optimus that I almost considered not rooting or flashing ROM's. Of course, I caved in last night.
Anyway, I have a couple questions regarding Odin and the process around flashing different kernels/modems, etc. Any help would be great. I successfully flashed Blue Kuban without issues as I'm familiar with CWM and all that great stuff.
1. Is there a good tutorial that I can use to do more research on Odin? I see there's a mobile version and a PC version, so I'm not sure which to use.
2. I see in some ROM's, the install instructions state to first flash a specific kernel with Odin. Is this to prevent bricks from flashing from ICS to ICS ROM's?
3. Hypothetically, if I wanted to switch from Blue Kuban to CM9 (or any other ICS ROM), couldn't I just restore my stock GB back up and then flash CM9 (or any other ICS ROM)? If not, what is the most user friendly method you use?
Thanks all, really glad I chose this phone, it looks like there's awesome development for it! Any help is greatly appreciated!

1. OK for Odin, you can try searching for a tutorial on qbkings YouTube channel. Basically all you need to know is that the PDA slot is for kernels and such where as phone slot is for modems. Only have auto reboot checked in top right settings. Mobile Odin works the same way. You can flash kernels from there and can save you time and when you're away from a computer. It currently has problems flashing modems however. There is a paid and lite version which you can find here in xda if you search a bit.
2. Yes this is to prevent bricking which has been happening when wiping data/factory rest in custom recoveries repackaged in ICS kernels. This is why its recommended to go back to el26 because this is the last true source (we don't have ICS source yet) we had.
Whenever changing roms, you must Odin/mobile Odin the el26 cwm kernel and do any rom flashing, restoring, backing up from there. So if you want to switch to CM9 from the ICS version of Blue Kuban I'm assuming, Odin el26 cwm kernel and flash cm9+gapps there.
Anymore questions let me know

Awesome, great info and I'll definitely pick up the mobile version. So it looks like I only need to flash the kernel, not actually flast a GB Rom?
The only other thing I'm wondering is if you recommend using the Rogue CWM Recovery. I have it installed right now. Are all ROMS compatible with this recovery?
Thanks again for your quick and helpful answer!

I personally use the rouge 1.4.1 kernel to do all my flashing. Rouge recovery is built from tweaking the cwm recovery. In essence, they are the same thing. Rouge has less "no's" and the menus are better organized, so I use it.

Yea all you need is the kernel. If you're on an ICS rom when you flash the el26 cwm kernel, it won't boot your phone but you can go into recovery still.
I really wouldn't recommend any custom recovery at this time for ICS. I mean it takes maybe an extra minute odining the el26 cwm kernel or so instead of directly booting into rogue recovery. From there you can flash mods, tweaks, etc and then just reflash a compatible ICS kernel. What do you really need rogue for? Not worth the risk IMO.

Interesting. I'll have to read up more regarding Odin. So I could literally open Odin and plug my phone in and then flash the el26 kernel and flash whatever ROM I want from Odin as well? Sorry, a little confused there. Just not sure how I'd flash a ROM without a custom recovery.
Thanks again, I'll also check out some tutorials. I'm guessing it will feel like 2nd nature in a week, just learning the new process.

The recovery is built into the kernel for this device. I use odin, flash the el29 rouge kernel v1.4.1, when the phone resets after the flash, boot into recover using volume up and power, wipe, flash, whatever you want, make sure you reinstall ics rom or kernel if you are on ics and reboot.

Ah, so if I flash the EL26 Kernel, will that overwrite my Rogue Recovery?

Well download whatever rom+mods/etc and put the files on your phone. Then just odin/mobile Odin the el26 cwm kernel and flash whatever you want from there, ICS or GB without no chance of a brick.
On our phone and I think most Samsung's for that matter, the recovery isnt separate from any other partition like with HTC. It must be packed into the kernel. So whenever you flash a rom, whatever recovery is packed in with that kernel included with the rom is what you're getting. Most devs are packing in stock Android recovery to cut down on bricks and instead recommend always flashing from el26 cwm kernel.
So yea that's what makes mobile Odin so great. Have el26 on your storage and you can switch roms very fast, easy, and safe.
Anymore questions just ask.
Edit: are you on GB or ICS Blue Kuban and what rogue also?

Thanks, really good info. I'm on Blue Kuban ICS right now with Rogue CWM 5.0.2.7. Looks like Odin will be a very easy way once I get comfortable with it.
So basically, I'll put the kernel zip in the PDA slot in Odin and let it do its thing, then my phone will auto reboot into the kernel's recovery where I can flash the ROM? Or do I flash the kernel in Odin, and also flash the ROM in Odin as well?

Odin is just used to flash the safe el26 cwm kernel onto your phone. It will auto reboot and just hang at the Galaxy S II screen since the GB kernel can't boot an ICS rom so just power+volume up into it. Hold it for maybe up to 15 seconds but it'll come around. You then flash the rom in recovery from there. So put you rom files, etc on your phone before you Odin the kernel.

Kernels flashed through PDA slot in Odin will be in either .tar or tar.md5 format, .zips are for cwm recovery only. You can find the el26 cwm kernel in the kernel repository sticky in dev section, its the first kernel listed. No problem, glad to help.

[Q] Installing ICS CWM

I just upgraded my E4GT Sprint from GB to ICS using the oneclick installer. I am trying to install the CODENAME rom from CWM but havng issues getting CWM installed. I used the the E4GT auto but FE16 isnt listed so i tried FE15 but it wont load into CWM. So i tried this link "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1390393" and flashed from ODIN and it goes into CWM but before it boots it says my phone is a gt-i9100 and has a ! on the bottom. It appears to boot though so i booted back into CWM and tried to flash the ZIP for CODENAME and the gapps file and it jsut gets stuck at the boot screen with the transformer logo. I cant get into CWM after that point and have to ODIN back to ICS. I am on ICS now and its working fine. Does anyone have any instructions on getting CWM installed and the codename rom from a fresh odin ICS install?

You really should read more before hopping around like that without checking. Real risk for a brick here.
-Flash EL26 stock CWM kernel via the PDA option in ODIN/Mobile ODIN
-When phone begins reboot, Hold Power + Volume up until boots into recovery.
-Wipe data/factory, cache and dalvik cache
-Flash ROM
-Flash Gapps
-Reboot
Those are the instructions right from the developer's thread. This is an AOSP rom and it sounds like you're trying to install TW kernels.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1662295
This is the kernel repository. It links to each kernel where you can read further and find out if they are safe for flashing things.

Seems like you've done a bunch of stuff. But you really should do a whole bunch of reading first or you will brick your phone.
My suggestion would be to use sfhub's one-click http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1705730 to get to a fully stock rooted device. Then use his autoroot package http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342728 to add CWM (the lates in the package is FF11+CWM Agat I believe) then you can add Agat's latest kernel with CWM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1721065
But I would be very careful when flashing ANY ROM; use the developers prefered method. Some recommend using EL26 CWM. Some a different recovery or procedure. Be especially careful with CM9 and AOKP builds to follow the directions there.
Good luck

So while i was waiting for a response i just went back to the stock GB using the one click install. I then used the autoroot package to install CWM and then restored my nandroid backup before i made in the very beginning. So my phone is back to a perfect state with GB and CWM installed. Can i just flash the ROM from CWM as is then? For some reason i thought it had to be "converted" to ICS and thats what started this whole mess. Things have changed since my old Evo
I just noticed that im running EL29 not 26...does that matter? When i try to flash that CMW EL26 stock root is when it gave me that gt-i9100 on boot and the ! at the bottom. Using the autoroot and choosing the EL29 Rogue is the only way i got it installed.

My friend some good suggestions above your post. Give yourself a day or two and do some reading prior to flashing. This way you may not end up at Sprint making up stories about why your phone wont boot up.

Let me just echo what everybody else has said, you're gotta read more. A lot more! If you're one goal is to get CNA in your phone I would recommend reading all of the very first post on that thread. They give step by step instructions.
If you need CWM there are several options to get it on your phone. Both sfhub and I have put together several one-click and automated options to get it on your phone.
One thing that hasn't been suggested yet but I would strongly encourage you to do is to read the "How Not To Brick Your E4GT" thread. It's sticked in the General section.
Good luck!

Two more things.
1) If you're going to ask for help give it a few minutes before trying something new. It takes people a minute to reply. Sometimes waiting that extra minute or two is all you need to be saved from bricking.
2) Don't be afraid to hit your thanks button for everyone who has offered advice already. I got them once for you but it might not hurt to do it again.
