I swear I searched. Are there any special steps for coming from ICS back to GB?

Odin back to GB (EL29) using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1433101
The steps are all over the place in a lot of different threads. Just search a bit more and you'll find everything.

It's alright, I just thought you were using a PC.
Using CWM is risky, the safest way is through ODIN.
What ROM are you on?

The goodness 3.2 blend. Its great, but my battery life is not. Thought I might try a more stable GB rom.

Oh I see. Yeah, I wouldn't recommend using any ICS CWM Recovery to flash back to GB.
To be safe and avoid bricking your device, your best bet would be the One-Click Odin I linked. It's very easy and fairly quick.

Well I suppose it would be the usual format/wipe then flash. If you have the flashable ZIP Calkulin has made, which wipes everything needed, then you could just flash that right before the GB. It might be safer then manually wiping, but doesn't mean bricking is avoided completely.
You've been warned though, it is not recommended.

Haven't tried that ROM, but maybe if you let the battery drain completely, then wipe battery stats and fully charge it, you'll get good battery life. Possibly try it a couple/few times.

Do not get brave, unless you want a paper weight.

Is restoring a GB nandroid bsck up with rom manager also not recommended? I restored from an ICS back to GB a few days ago, no problems as far as I can tell but had I known.

Don't blend Ics have Rogue Cwm? Cuz I was at the same situation, I went back to the backup I made which was Blazer Rom. I didn't use Odin whatever.

Odin is really not that tough.
I used Rom Manager a lot back in the EVO days, but it is not a good idea on these Sammy phones. The one time I tried a RM flash from ICS to GB I had my phone soft bricked and had to use Odin to fix. Wish I had just done Odin to begin with.
Folks not using Odin will be posting on How I bricked my phone thread, before not too long.

As SFHub himself has noted, among others, doing anything that involves a data wipe based on CWM and ICS kernel - in particular CM9 alphas - you greatly increase the risk of bricking your phone. ODIN and Mobile ODIN, while certainly still having its own risks, is generally viewed as the recommended solution when performing an operation that would include a data wipe, such as nandroid backup/restore.
Again, this has been documented ad nauseum in a stickied thread just for this reason:

Mobile ODIN will let you flash the kernel but not the modem. In this case it should do what you want.
*Edit: Clarification* You'll want to read the EL26/29 ODIN TAR package notes to see how to extract the kernel for Mobile ODIN use. Another great reference for Mobile ODIN is Epix4G when around.

Updating to 3.2.6 while rooted

Hello. I have a sgs2 e4gt and I'm running the Zedomax kernel, rooted of course. I'm interested in upgrading to 2.3.6, and know I can't do OTA updates. Any suggestions?

I just got the phone last week, and because I use Linux, I followed his guide to rooting and installing the kernel with heimdall. I very much like the stock ROM with ADW Launcher. I just want a kernel with clockwork.

He's right. Hitman has too many issues when trying to use with other roms. For example blazer. Gunslinger is good. I just use the stock kernel with blazer..
Where can I find the blazer kernel? Also, what about the LoStKernel? Is that a good one? I've found that sometimes I randomly lose service and have to either kill the dialer app or reboot. Sometimes both.

You don't have to flash a whole rom to get these. just download it in the dev section and flash it. I haven't heard much about the LOStkernel. I'd use a team rogue kernel for sure.

Ok...your device is rooted right.....So then you can choose by your self witch rom you want....for ICS ..i'm running westcrips Resurrection Remix v1.0....
Works like a charm..try this i think it's the best ics experiance you can get on the sgs2..it's real smooth..and the battery simply amazing.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436854
IMPORTANT make a titanium backup of all your apps.
And with safe backup ....backup your data ...like calendar contacts etc.
Before flashin....make a nandroid backup..for that go into custom recovery and run a backup.
Just in case if something goes wrong.

Hey Ninos ill stop by tonight and take a look at it cause i had some questions for you about my unlock code...it wont work...i put my girls old att sim in and it asked for my code but it said wrong code when i installed it. I double checked the IMEI and they match so idk.
Edit: You have all stock? ROM, Kernel and recovery? If you have stock recovery then try and uninstall the superuser and rom manager apps and reboot into stock recovery and wipe cache and reboot see if that works?
If your sending it back to Tmobile, KL1 isn't even the official stock firmware anymore. I would be flashing LE1 personally. At the very least KID. Both have Odin firmwares in the dev section. That's just my opinion though.

Well i have to wait a day for my exhange so ill flash the latest stock firmware. I took a gamble flashing this back to stock. Aside from the head set jack issues the usb doesnt want to connect without a lil jiggle.
I had to jig cable it once when i was odining the stock recovery. It got disconnected in the middle of the flash. I had to turn my a/c off cause even the small breaze hitting the wire would make it disconnect

Hey Ninos ill stop by tonight and take a look at it cause i had some questions for you about my unlock code...it wont work...i put my girls old att sim in and it asked for my code but it said wrong code when i installed it. I double checked the IMEI and they match so idk.
Edit: You have all stock? ROM, Kernel and recovery? If you have stock recovery then try and uninstall the superuser and rom manager apps and reboot into stock recovery and wipe cache and reboot see if that works?

Custom boot splash-screen info

Hellcat's boot-logo changer
Now officially patched for our gaudi_bootimage.jpg!
Two step process after installing hellcats app:
Flash an Agat REPACK kernel. This only works from a Sammy kernel so a repack is necessary.
Then its as simple as cropping a pic!
If I recall cm offers some kind of dual boot into TW option for things like getting a GPS lock or updating prl, I imagine that would work with this as well.
Enjoy =)
HellCats Sgs2BootLogoChanger
Link to AGAT SAFE REPACK which probably the best option available for this.
Says that the kernel I'm using is missing the required file system drivers required to flash the image. I'm running AOKP so that may be why. Once we get a source built kernel then it will probably work. Anyone else running AOKP able to get it to work.

Do have the yellow triangle?
It wont work right if you have a yellow triangle. Ive successfully used it on AOKP back around build 30 and have since used it on CM9 with caymon-islands (sp?) kernel..
I have gotten that mesage before though, i cant why...
Oh well, im any case if yoy decide you want a boot logo just revert to stock. Im pretty sure the only thing that kills one is a full restore.
Good day, sir =)

Thanks for the info. No I don't have the triangle but I may revert to stock do the image then flash AOKP. I'm pretty sure its due to the kernel. But any who. Thanks for the tips. Pretty awesome that this is available. What's this Cayman kernel you speak of.

Lol the kernel that is in Shabby's CMKang folder on goo.im. Kang-a-Kang os back on the trend lmao I may have a copy still.
Oooooo better idea!
Use the build-a-recovery website to get an up-to-date cwm on wharever recovery.img you pick. Ill fond the link before my phone dies...hopefully... 2%and forgot my portable charger at home eight next to my backup battery. Lol

You can try and upload your boot.img to here and if it works it may be good enough.

Lol my phone died AS i was pressing send button.. Hope you have some luck with adding cwm. this site seems to only aosp based kernels so you should be fine.

Thanks for the heads up, it should work on every build as long as long as your build.prop reflects that your on an s2 and apparently there is a kernel restriction of some kind.
I noticed a message in the app saying that if you get "insertrandom_bootimage.jpg failed to draw, you ran into rare problem. Contact me to get it patched in the market"
Sure enough... That simple. Lol
He hadnt patched for us it because hes on gt-i9100 and hadnt ever even heard of gaudi.
Just goes to show...
Communication is the key to community after all.
So if I flash a new boot logo with stock el29 and then flash aokp m6 it should not erase the boot logo right!?

Correct.
Almost no (exception being full stock restores) flashable rom will replace param.lfs, which is where gaudi_bootimage.jpg resides.

Holy crap that was fast... thanks PhAkEer.... wat happen to me last time I was on blu kuban did the boot logo change it seem to work but wen it booted all I saw was just a black screen trying to boot... I had a mini hart attack til I was able to get into Odin and flash stock el29 since then I wanted to try it just with more detail...
So basically your saying it should work on el29 (just my safety precaution) and all should be golden?? Thanks again

Lol it wouldve worked the other time too but it was not aware of our actual boot logo name until I asked HellCat to patch it...
I dont know for certain about the GB bootlogo name but I can guarantee that if it doesn't work right away I can guide you through the rest.
Tell you what,
Go to /mnt/.lfs and find XYZ_Bootimage.jpg and tell me the XYZ. If it some weird name then the app may or may not work right away...

Does it not work on said rom? I would be surprised.. unless its the kernel issue described by scarmon. I know for sure it works on almost any from because I used it even when it was broken. I'll just figure out how if you arent comfortable with the app...

Work around for aoskp/cm users.
a hellcat app that should help... its called
ktool
And with it you can backup current boot.img as zimage, rename it for a moment, flash a samsung zimage, install boot image, reflash the dumped zimage... all without rebooting. I'll post a pack with all needed.
Included is tool, boot logo changer, an agat zimage, and a boot.img just in case you forget to dump current.. I forgot to rename agats kernel so don't dump current until you rename it.
Haven't tested this yet. At work. Hope it works...

Thus far I made a JB repack kernel with my recovery and it's working.
I made it on Garwynn's request and he has it for further testing.
I guess when JB is officially out and we have the source I can make kernel for it as well.
Why not?
agat, flashing your stock repack FI27 kernel fixed my 4G download problem that I was experiencing earlier. :good: Thanks again for releasing this~!!
On my previous try with the Tersus install, I was running Tersus, source-based FI27, EL29 modem and gettiing ~1Mbps download and 1.4Mbps upload.
With the only change being the stock repack FI27 kernel and keeping the EL29 modem, I now get these speeds.

These speeds are even better than my speeds with the GB Calkulin v3.0 ROM + EL29.
All is well and running very smoothly.
There is, however, one problem. Whenever I try to install the XDA forum app, I get the following error message:xda app couldn't install on usb storage or sd card.
Do you have any tips on how to fix this?

It has been talked about and discussed in few threads.
I never had that problem with app installation and never was able to recreate it.
There are few tips and workarounds like unmount sd card and than install or pull the sd card from the phone and try to install app.
However I can't tell you with certainty which approach will work for you.
Sorry.

Try rebooting then installing it or restore a backup.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I had tried rebooting but it didn't work. However, the xda app finally installed after I shut off the phone, pulled out the SD card, rebooted, then tried installing it. Thank you agat~!
Weird thing now, however, is that when I tap on a post to bring up the pop-up menu, like to give thanks, the screen goes blank & the app force closes. But at least I can read the forum and post by using a different method.
EDIT: Couldn't edit this post from the xda app--had to do it via laptop b/c of the force close issue.

Repacks are usually just stock kernels with custom recovery.
Agats rebuilt kernels are tweaked and have more governors etc..
