Going back to android 2.2? Also no sounds on 2.3

I just flashed 2.3 EF02 and while it runs great there is no sound no matter how many times I flash and reflash. So I would like to go back to 2.2, now I made a back up of my phone before flashing so can I just clockwork mod recovery to 2.2 or do I need to odin? Please and thank you!

Did u flash the update.zip that was posted in development or did u do the Odin way

Cant update to EI22 modem using EC05 to EI22

I'm on cm7 with no mods or anything else. I tried to update my modem to ei22 by using odin to. Eco5 then flashing the eco5 to ei22 zip but keep getting a install error 7. Any help?

When you odin'ed to EC05, did you use the victory pit file? If not, it wont go back to BML and the stock EC05 wont work on MTD.

I'm having the same issue and I believe I did use the victory pit file.

Had the same issure your going to odin back to stock and download the system update. That way you get the official ei22 modem. Once done with that go ahead and flash a recovery but uncheck auto reboot and go ahead flash your cm7. I had to do this early

If by flash you mean Odin with the PIT file and repartition checked then yes. Odin EC05 stock tar, root, flash the ec05toei22 zip then flash cm7.

No only way to return to bml is to repartition and and flash the stock ec05 through odin.

You my want to Odin to EC05, you'll be prompted to update from there. Check the stickies in Android Development. Un-bricking your epic from the brink.

Ei22 isn't the latest el30 is if wanting the latest there is an odin package in development there's no modem.bin but you can flash the ec05 modem through odin and I think there's and ec05 to el30 delta flashable if not then I know for sure there's an ec05 to ei22 and then ei22 to el30

Odin to EC05, find the update.zip file which can be found here in the utilities section... (realtics.uphero.com), flash the update.zip file in stock recovery, you will then be running ei22.
then simply do an OTA update to el30 and you will be on the official latest release.

Alright I'll provide links and instructions
If you plan on rooting you'll need the GB3.tar kernel I'll link everything at the end.
1. Obtain the kernel and the el30.tar package provided by toadlife don't forget to thank him
2. Odin in the el30 package, and then odin in the gb3.tar kernel.
3. Odin in your choice of recovery cwm5.0.2.7 is a wise choice.
4. Enjoy your rooted EL30.
EL30 Odin Package : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1461337
Gb3.tar kernel : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1307980
Recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1357655
Once all this is done you can find an su.zip to flash and stay on stock el30 or flash any other rom that you would like.
If you plan on updating modems you'll need to obtain and ec05modem.tar this is here : http://db.tt/o3KIjXbA and is flashed via Odin . These two are cwm flashables, Once flashed the ec05 to ei22 modem is in order and can be found here: http://db.tt/9icy8xnd
And the ei22 el30 modem can be found here : http://db.tt/nuyqxpvD

Q: lost access to recovery after nightly flash

So, I flashed CM10 nightly 11/8. Dirty flash over a previous nightly, just cache and dalvik wipe. Now I can't boot to recovery, it just hangs at the cyan boot logo. Was using TWRP and I made sure to click the inject twrp box. Everything else works well and normally, aside from no recovery. I know the correct answer is to odin to stock and start fresh. However, does anybody know of a way to re-flash twrp or clockwork without access to recovery. I would like a quick temp fix for a few days if there is one. Thanks in advance!

U can just use odin to flash cwm. Look for the 5.x version thread for cwm and there's a .tar flashable file somewhere there. Just flash it in odin and you should be good. Since ur already rooted it should stick.

I'm no Odin pro. Do I need the victory pit file too? Also what box do I put the cwm tar ball in? I appreciate the help.

No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do not flash the tar file for cwm, that is bml only... there is no .tar for an mtd recovery for this phone... sorry, but if you lost recovery on mtd, sadly the only way to get it back is to odin to stock...

Word. Thanks for the save. I didn't think of the bml/mtd issue. I guess no short cuts this time. Thanks again guys.

Ya it doesn't work if you're on mtd, you'll get error on cwm and can't flash anything, even you flash twrp, you'll get error
One solution..
Odin to stock and odin cwm again

I think there IS (hopefully) a way of flashing MTD recovery without returning to stock. Maybe... grab a recovery.img from the ROM package, put it in SD card, and go to Terminal Emulator on phone. Then...
Command:
su
cd /sdcard
flash_image recovery recovery.img
This works on my good'ol (sold) G1 and Milestone... but don't know if this works on MTD. Anyway, give it a shot

Well, I ended up Odining back to stock and starting over. After a crappy night of a bad cable and battery CPR, I got it working. I was using TWRP and I suspect that something went wrong in the re-injection process. All is well now. Thanks for everyone's help and suggestions

[Q] How to switch from CM10 to stock jellybean

So I'm giving my wife my galaxy s3 since I'm getting the nexus 4. I was running CM10 and she does not like cm10 and prefers touchwiz. So how do I safely go to the official tmobile jellybean update without bricking the phone. Need help been searching the forums all night. Thanks

Just flash the .zip if you want to stay rooted or you can odin which sometimes loses root. All you would have to do is flash recovery then flash the .zip with root injected to recover.

So I tried to flash the stock deodexed in cwm and it installed but I was stuck at the black samsung boot up screen. Is there like a step by step method of doing this. I'm still new to the whole odin thing and dont quite understand it.

Did you Odin back to stock? Or did you flash the .zip? There was two files on that thread I linked you to. The top one was an Odin file. The bottom one was the .zip to flash.
To use Odin DL the file then unzip the .tar and Odin it.

NP man. I was switching back and forth between ICS and jb and realized it was not only messing my SD card up but I had glitches galore on my jb ROMs. I reformatted my sdcard and Odin back to stock jb and have been running jb every since. I had a hard time understanding the process of Odin then flashing the ROM that was already rooted.
