You can Odin el29 one click sfhubs, or install the safe kernel from agat version 2.3 and flash back your nandroid if you made one. Its safe with that kernel.

I know you guys probably get a lot of new users asking...
Recently I acquired a SGS2 with sprint.
It is currently on ICS leak 24.
My understanding is that while on ICS or AOSP:
* never mess with CWM, ROM manger, recovery. I don't ever use nandroid backup's so I'm okay on that zone.
* Make sure the USB cable isn't bad, or phone port.
* Always use the EL29 full restore odin one click(not the preserve data package), then install the CWM recovery and wipe data/use Calkulin's_FORMAT_ALL one or two times. Then, flash the custom ROM of my choice. Then re-flash back using the EL29 Full restore if I wish to try out another ROM or update to a ROM.
I have no issues following those steps to ensure I don't brick my device. Is all correct? Thanks guys!

I wouldn't say never mess with CWM, just know what you are doing in advance.
That thread he posted will tell you everything you need to know, If you have any more questions just ask me I update that thread fairly often just so you know too.
Always Odin to stock before switching Android versions
Use only FB21 or FB28 to flash ICS ROMS
You don't need to go back to EL29 to flash a new Android version. But Odining to stock can allow for a smoother install. But it's pretty pointless to say... Download The Goodness ICS Rom 3.1, and then when an update comes to 3.2, go back to EL29.

It is okay if I flash a ICS ROM from EL29 though right? =) I'm pretty comfortable with blazer 4.1 at the moment though so I see no desire to flash a ICS ROM till source is out and there is an official method.
Yup no problem at all, just make sure your on the stock repacked EL29 kernel and not rogue when you flash and don't restore anything when ICS is installed. Once source is out we should be good on bricks but till then be safe broski. I like ICS too but I'm sticking with blazer too just because battery life.

Thanks for that, So I can't be on the rogue from autoroot option C? How would I go along the terms of that.
I use the EL29 Restore package, then use the auto-root package to install my recovery. Unless that isn't correct. Can i use the recovery of rogue to flash an AOSP ROM at least? Sorta confusing after being a HTC user for the longest... Touchwiz feels very smooth compared to sense.

Lol sorry I should have clarified what I meant by rogue. That kernel is fine as it's the repacked el29 kernel, however don't use A rogue kernel such as gunslinger to flash (kernel with OC and UC options) You may not have issues but better safe then sorry. I actually really like tw, between this and aosp it's my favorite. If your going to flash aosp such as aokp or cm9 I recommend following the instructions here

Late to the party, but if you are going for GB to ICS, I recommend you Odin a stock EL29 first just to be safe. Also, make sure that your GPS is locked before you flash to ICS so that your GPS ability stays.
Hey guys haven't been here in a while but I want to flash JB and I'm on the 7-11 version of this rom and would liken know does it have the safe recovery where I can flash other rooms on it or do I have to restore to EL26 first? Thanks
Hello. I currently have omega rom installed with cwm. I want to flash a stock rom to see if I can enable HD voice on that.
My question is: can I install a stock rom on a custom recovery? Or do I have to revert to the original stock recovery
You need to flash stock rom via odin. Recovery has no role here.
this is XXXDDDAAA
Ok.so there will be no issues with cwm installed? But the cwm will remain after the flash of the stock rom? I want to get back on omega rom after testing.
Thank you.
No.
Cwm would be deleted which can be reinstalled.

I used kies to go back to stock and then rerooted. when I tried to install a tw kernel I got a soft brick. Unlike a custom ROM you can not just do a recovery back to before so I am afraid to try another kernel till I know.
stock rom w/custom tw kernel

I have a rooted AT&T galaxy s3, rooted with a custom kernel. I also have twrp and have been able to do a backup (nandroid backup) of the stock rom with stock kernel and stock rom with custom kernel. Sounds like you made sure the kernel specifically states TW, so not sure why you had this problem but I have used it...did you install custom recovery ?
Hello ...
two days ago i've unlocked and flashed custom kernel & rom (Super JB) on device Arc S LT18. I, and don't know why, used Flashtools to recover to 2.3.4 and after that installed the mentioned rom (yes i've cleared all). Now the device only boots if i use Menu + Power button. What the hell ? If i only use the power button, the green light flashes and nothing else (no boot). DO i need a clean wipe and all over again? Maybe i must flash original kernel 5.4. ?
After flashing the ROM in recovery, did you flash the patch for your device as mentioned in the installation instructions?

yes, i've flashed the patch after the rom. I really don't know what happened, was it the flashed kernel (that is the first time i've encounter the problem) ? or maybe that i've installed a stock rom (2.3.4) and didn't boot the device (and then proceed with the custom installation) ? or maybe it's the kernel, because i've flashed the Super Fusion and not the fusion 5.4
now i've installed the official CyanogenMod 10.2, but can't seem to fix this bug

What difference does it make, if both kernel and /system partition are completely formatted anyway?

its your choice mate if you want to be on GB rom then flash gb 2.3.4 or if you want to be on ICS then flash ics 4.04 stock rom
but if you want to flash JB custom roms then you need to flash ics stock rom first.
you can either reover to ICS or GB via flashtool its upto you
well the cm 10.2 works really good and maybe i will test cm 11 (or any custom rom from 4.2 above). so i will try your suggestion and see what happens.
EDIT: well the stock browser crashed today -.-' ... will have to test further ... and the strange boot is kinda fixed (it was my fault because i didn't pushed the power button long enought lol)
EDIT 2: stock browser simply force close everytime i use it. google play store doesn't work well :/
