Flash stock rom via odin

Restoring your GB nandroid backup could be usefull...
I just did that this morning, reverting from CM9B2 to my "Last Page"
Otherwise you can still using the direct method by flashing the stock rom gb via odin, but remember, in CM9 you can only entering the download mode with the manual method (pressing and hold the power + home + vol down button).

Is there a place where I can find all the kernels made for this device?
I just want to be able to restore backups.
But I'll need the kernels correct? Or is that cooked into the boot.img?
Any help appreciated. Thanks.

EL 26 CWM This is the preferred kernel/recovery you should use to flash/wipe/etc. For the moment it is advised to avoid doing any wiping in ICS based recoveries which means anything that is FB##
Link for updated cm9 kernel by darchstar flashable thru odin or mobile odin only
AOSP Kernel AOSP kernel by TCP good for AOKP, not recommended for CM9 since it might break root.
Ok. So if I want to restore say an ics rom.
Could I flash the rom then restore data through stock recovery?

Recovery is baked in to the kernels. You may not restore an ics backup with a gb recovery and vice versa. To go from ics to gb, Odin el26 and restore a gb rom or wipe and flash something new. To restore an ics rom, from either gb or ics, Odin an ics kernel (immediately boot into recovery) and restore your ics backup. I believe most are using rogue fd02 for that.

To back up and restore ICS rom.
1. Flash el26 cwm, either thru odin or mobile odin (recommend getting mobile odin app so worth it)
2. Boot into recovery by holding volume + and power
3. Perform back up or perform restore which ever one you want to do
4. If you are restoring an ICS nand make sure you flash an ICS kernel after the restore is complete or it wont boot. If you forget to flash the kernel don't panic just power off and hold volume + and power again and you should go back into el26 cwm recovery.

Why el26 and not el29? Confused on this.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
El26 is CWM and the el29 is rogue. There seems to have been a lot less bricks using the CWM.
El26 was the last true clockworkmod produced for our phones

Have no idea what you are trying to do. Flash kernel, flash ROM, flash Modem, create backup etc....
The stock E4GT does NOT come with CWM. If you want CWM on the stock ROM you can use EL26 or the EL29 (Rogue too) CWMs.
These can be installed via Mobile Odin or sfhub's Autoroot package.
I suggest you do some really serious reading and then do some more reading about how to mod this phone. Otherwise you will end up with an expensive paperweight.
Best and safest place to start is sfhubs EL29 stock rooted, then use his autoroot package to add EL29+CWM+Rogue recovery.
Also don't user ROM Manager OR a 'touch' recovery - you will brick your phone.
Again please read extensively before you brick your phone.
I have root I'm running aokp I have flashed many roms and what not but I just can't boot into recovery (cwm) without using Odin and flashing kernal first then I can

You have to use odin, mobile odin to flash kernels. In odin you have to hold power and volume down first then volume up to get into download mode.
I know how to get into cwm while using Odin never used mobile Odin but like if I shut my phone off and try to boot into cwm I can't

I guess I'm not understanding you completely. Your definitely booting into stock recovery. How exactly are you flashing the el26 kernel?
Send me a pm and I'll explain more to ya if you thank you
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA Premium App
AOKP and other ICS ROms typically do not include a custom recovery due to the high risk of bricks. That is why you are unable to get back to cwm. Read the OP of the AOKP thread carefully or you will have an expensive paperweight. On AOKP, you have to Odin EL29 with cwm in order to use recovery safely, then flash an AOSP kernel before rebooting to Android.
As stated... if you flashed an ICS ROM/kernel from a GB CWM setup then CWM won't be there. If you're sure it's still installed and just can't get to it then try downloading "QuickBoot" from the market (it's free) and try the "recovery" option.. maybe that'll work.
Even if you're on an ICS ROM and try to get to CWM you should still get to a stock recovery....
I followed the instruction, and try to upgrade my Malice (2.6.x) ROM to ICS. But now stuck in reset loop...
This is the instruction they provided:
1. Boot to recovery (done)
2. Nandroid backup (done)
3. Wipe data/factory reset (done)
4. Flash the ROM.zip (done)
5. Reboot & once booted wait five minutes for the ROM to settle
(waited for more than 5 mins, the phone just boot to "InFamous bootup screen" and then reset in a loop..
Just wondering how I can boot back to CWM recovery mode or what should I do from this point on...
I tried the "hold volume up key + down key + power button" trying to get into recovery mode, but it doesn't work.
:crying:
Boot into recovery and load this ROM:

Thanks in advance
Are you doing combo right? Hold both volume keys + power, at first vibration release power key, continue to hold volumes until in recovery. Flash darkside cachewipe. Can be found in dev section in any of thederekjay's rom threads.

Sure!
But how do I flash it if I can't get into Recovery mode?
And which radio/modem to flash for this mod?
For now u have to get into the recovery mode ...
Take out the battery
Then hold The volume up and down, and the power buttons . Wait u feel the vibration let go of the power button. Few secs later u will see The recovery menu
Any Ics radio for t989 should be fine look for them under the development section
U have to flash the Ics radio if u r coming for the gingerbread ROM .
Flash the radio before the ROM

I flashed aokp not knowing cwm would return to stock 3e
So so far I downloaded root exp apk astro file and gapps. I extracted and installed gapps via root explorer.
Now I have the market.
I downloaded Mobil Odin pro.
What's my options now to get a safe cwm recovery or one that I can flash from the phone in order to get some cwm back so I can then nandroid back to stock ics.
Any links to aokp cwm tar file or even a rooted kernel or stock ics rooted rom.

Always flash gapps right after you flash the ROM. But here is what you're looking for: the GB Stock EL26 CWM5 kernel. Here is a link for the .tar.md5 that you can Mobile Odin: http://kernelrepo.chris41g.org/Kern.../Chris41g/Stock CWM/TAR/EL26_StockCWM.tar.md5
This kernel is ONLY for recovery. Do not try to run it on your ROM. Only use it to flash.

When i flashed the el26 i restored my nandroid from that recovery and booted into my stock ics touchwiz which also apparantely had AGAT RECOVERY backed up.. So now recovery is once again agat

So I'm Custom Firmware FrostyJB and want to go back to stock as this has a few bugs. and i want to recieve OTA from Samsung.
I made a nandroid but my phone does not seem to register it.
any idea what i should do?
You have to restore a nandroid backup with the same recovery you made it with.
Otherwise download the stock fw and flash with odin. Flash the VLALH2 and youll have the up to date fw already. No need to wait for ota to dl and install.
