Try on a completely stock rom like one of sfhubs Odin in clicks. Or it could just be sprint for now.

No go to his fe22 odin one click thread and use that to go to stock twiz. From there update prl/profile. Then you can go ahead and mobile Odin the el26 cwm kernel and ref lash to whatever rom.

You can still flash a GB kernel even though you have a ICS ROM installed. It won't boot the phone completely(it'll freeze on the Samsung Galaxy SII screen on startup). But you can still get into recovery and download modes. That's the benefit right there. You don't need to flash all that though. Which ROM do you want to be on? The part about using Odin to go to FE22 and then go to EL26 has an extra step in it. You really don't need to flash the FE22 before going to EL26.

Ya some of them have CWM or a different custom recovery. What ROM is it that you want to install? What I mean is you don't need to flash to multiple other kernels/ROMs before eventually going to whichever ROM you want.
Go to the dev section and find sfhubs fe22 Odin one click and flash your phone with that. The reason you do this is so you will be on a stock rom where you can update prl and profile. After you do this, using Odin (with only auto reboot checked in top right corner), flash the el26 cwm kernel. Boot into recovery and from here you can flash back to Frankenstein or blazer whatever you want. You will need a computer.
So...
1. Fe22 Odin one click
2. Boot into fe22 stock rom and update prl/profile
3. Odin the el26 cwm kernel
4. Flash whatever new rom you want.

Mobile Odin works. I just flashed a GB recovery/kernel combo and wiped from there. The bricks are coming from the use of using CWM bundled with an ICS kernel. If you do any flashing with a GB kernel/recovery, you'll be good to go.
Note: You wont be able to boot on ICS with a GB kernel, so just boot into recovery if you choose that route.

Only bricks I've seen are from using Rom Manager and the temp CWM Touch. Kernel Repacks are fine for going back and forth between GB and ICS.

HOW are we taking risks? It's been clearly stated in several threads that the problem lies with RomManager and temp recoveries.. not with repacks.

You should always go back to GB, unless going to a stock leak and then odin straight to is fine in that case. Or you can take the risk of frying with an ICS kernel not being able to go back to anything. I took the risk many times but its inadvisable.
Mobile Odin or Odin the el26 kernel and flash from that recovery. There is no need to go back to GB. Your phone won't boot up with that kernel by the way, hold power and volume up to get into recovery.

Going back to GB is not necessary but do whatever you're comfortable with
I use the same method revamper posted. Flash the EL26 kernel with mobile odin then as the phone is rebooting, hold power and volume up to boot into recovery. No need to flash a GB rom, just the kernel will do. It's safe to do a full manual wipe/factory reset with the EL26 kernel as well. Mijjah does a great job of explaining why to use EL26 in the Q & A section in the second post here.

Annnnd i took the mobile odin plunge. Just flash the el26 kernel provided by mijjah in his aokp/4.0/ics thread. Hold down power and volume up right into recovery. Now I can go back to gb or to ics using this method. Thanks again to all.

Yes odin/mobile odin to el26+cwm. El29 has rogue repack recovery which can brick when flashing to or from ICS. EL26+cwm was the last kernel to have official cwm recovery.

Yes, but when you flash a new rom the kernel is replaced with whatever kernel is included in the rom. So you will have to reflash the el26cwm kernel every time before switching to a new rom. ICS roms won't boot with the kernel, so when switching from ICS to ICS or ICS to GB you will have to hold power+volume up as soon as phone starts to reboot to get into recovery.
Sent on HyDrA with S Voice using Tapatalk 2
I would also suggest having the rom/gapps/kernel you want to flash already downloaded and on your phone before going to el26cwm kernel once your on any ICS ROM.
