You have to use Odin for it, and also ancora.ops which is provided in arco's CWM thread. You first need to download Odin. Check on www.sammobile.com what the latest stock for your region is. Search the stock somewhere around here and in the dev-forum. Reboot your phone to download mode when connected to PC. Open Odin, insert ancora.ops and check one package. Choose your stock, most probably a .tar.md5 and flash it. Your phone will reboot and then you'll be on stock. When I did this with my softbrick I also lost root and CWM.

The stock ROM you've downloaded needs to be a .tar.md5
The .tar.md5 file is all you need.
Also, before proceeding to flashing that stock ROM, please, READ this first: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1467128

Try to unplug your battery about 15 minutes. And then try booting it up again. If still on boot loop then do another flash with Odin and it will work

Not sure that's gonna work since the recovery will also be replaced by the stock one.
If that's the case, I would do the following things:
1. Download CWM for Samsung Galaxy Wonder from here. (It's also available in the development section here.)
2. Flash it via ODIN, by following exactly the same steps as for the ROM flashing.
3. Enter CWM and:
clear data (factory reset)
clear dalvik cache (under "advanced" menu)
go back one step and under "mounts & storage menu -> select "format /system" option. This step is crucial for a clean install!! Especially when changing Android versions.
under the same menu, go ahead and format /sdcard. (Be careful NOT to format /external_sd !)
4. exit from there and put your phone into Download Mode again (Home button + Volume DOWN + Power Button).
5. flash the stock ROM via ODIN
6. That's all. Good luck!
Hope you got the correct stock ROM. Also, I hope this little tutorial helps you fix your phone.
If any questions, just ask. We'll be here to help.

Hehe. I'm glad I could help.
In the future, please, don't name your threads "help me" or "need help" cause it's harder to look for. Try to give it a name such as "Galaxy Wonder Android downgrade to stock" or "Galaxy Wonder stuck in bootloop".
Again, I'm really glad now it works. And I hope you learned something today.

just flash stock rom via odin downloader and if you have bootloop did wipe data and wipe cache in recovery after the install is complete ..
and it accomplishes everything ..

Please, read up.
It's not unnecessary and apparently it works.
I'm not sure the STOCK Recovery has those options and I'm not gonna flash it just to prove my point. But I hope you remember the fact that, after flashing the stock ROM via ODIN, CWM will be replaced with the stock recovery.

One question... Odin for Ubuntu... I know that Heimdall works the same for linux but how do you use it?
Ehndroix JB with S3 Style Pack :thumbup:

Hello all.
Here's CWM recovery, built from the latest version included in the ICS sources. It has support for both internal and external sd card, with the internal being the default. As such, the internal has mount point /sdcard, and the external has /external_sd. Nothing you should normally need to know, unless you want to mount them manually in adb shell.
I provide it in two packages, dependent on how you want to flash it. One for flashing manually in adb shell, and one for flashing with Odin.
recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.5-ancora.zip -> for flashing in adb shell
Don't flash the zip file, but extract and flash the img file.
recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.5-ancora.tar.md5 -> for flashing with Odin
Select the ops file, and enable one package in options, then load the md5 file with the One Package button
In addition, you need Ancora.ops it you're gonna flash it with Odin.
How to navigate in menus:
Volume buttons = go up and down
Home button = select
Power button = go back
I'm too busy right now to write further extensive instructions, so if anyone else would want to do it, that would be great. Otherwise refer to the RZRecovery thread on how to flash in adb shell.
Thanks arco, i can smell ics for sgw already..

Anyone knows if I use via ADB flashing will the original RAZR wiped out ?
Please advise thanks

I tryed to flash it using the adb shell but now the phone start only in download mode.
I'm going to re-flash the stock rom KL3, abd I will try with the odin procedure.
How can I do? I have to use, as for the rom, the voice "one package"?

You should flash the stock then get root (not sure if needed, but just in case).
Than you will have to open ODIN v.4.43 and select the Ancora.OPS as OPS-file.
After that is selected you can use the OnePackage button to select the downloaded MD5-file with CWM.
If you need the Ancora.OPS, I could upload it.

Hi Arco,
I did try it to, i flashed from ADB shell, when i reboot in to recovery , i get a menu and i can select things with the volume buttons, but when i activate a item then i see a hat with an arrow and then it is stucked.
I can go back to the menu, but cant activate what i choose.
Have to pull out the battery to reboot.
Had RzRecovery installed before this one.
Hope you have enough info to resolve this
Edit:
The activate button (left down on the phone) does respond on active and go back, while the go back button (right down on the phone) does not work at all.
I tried flashing through adb shell and it didn't work, but it did work with Odin.
I just put the package arco posted in the PDA slot (gave me an error but it worked anyway) and it flashed in 2 seconds. Recovery works fine, I just did a backup.
Edit:Nevermind, I'm an idiot. I was trying to flash the .zip file It obviously didn't work. It does with the .img

Did you have RZRecovery installed first? I flashed CWM with Odin over the stock Samsung Recovery and everything works fine.
so people with RZR flashed must restore stock rom and then flash CWM?

How to Unbrick Samsung Galaxy Gio
If your phone doesn’t boot into download mode and you have a black screen after flashing anything wrong. Here's how you unbrick it; worked for me
==Method 1:==
Prepare ODIN with the firmware you want to flash (in my case was Gingerbread 2.3.4) and get it ready to go.
-
Remove battery, wait for a bit. Insert battery again.
-
Flash a recovery with your specific filesystem (EXT4 or RFS)-(If you have EXT4, download ext4 only, don't get ext4+rfs)
-
Enter recovery & Wipe | Format:
System
Data
Cache
Dalvik Cache
Have ODIN ready. Connect phone to PC.
-
Reboot to Download Mode
Hold Volume down + Power + Home button at the same time.
-
At this point Odin should have detected your Galaxy Gio (Yellow rectangle should appear).
-
Insert the Stock Rom or Custom Rom.
-
Click Start button in Odin and wait about 5 min.
-
Reboot and wait
If all goes well it should come back to life.
If not, repeat the steps above ^ (Atleast 2x)
Download ODIN 4.42
Download OPS Only
Download DRIVER Only

Hey guys good night....
i have one issue to ask you...
i have one samsung w and i made it cynogen mode 10.1 but now i want to sell it but i dont know how to install back gingerbread back...
So if you help me about that issue step by step i appreciate that cause i need money immediately...
i searched for it in the forum but im rookie about forums and this kind of technolgies at least now... so even if this issue was asked i ma sorry about cause i am asking again...
Thank you
Just download a stock firmware from samsung,then open in clockword mod and wipe everything.go to mounts and wipe system,data,cache.then pull battery off to turn it off cause from recovery there is no option.open odin on pc and phone in download mode and connect it to pc.then in odin untick and tick one-package,choose ops and select the ancora.ops(same you used for clockword mod) and choose one package button and select the stock .tar.md5 update and click start!!that's it!!
It's very important to wipe everything before flashing stock firmware so you avoid bootloop!!
When phone boots after flashing,it's all stock again!!!
I've done it many times before cause i get bored easily and flash roms all time!!

Because on the "etc..." part, there is one step that's called wipe /system partition (from "mounts & storage" section, by selecting "format /system") which most likely you skipped.
In case you don't have CWM anymore (as I think you don't), put the phone in Download mode and flash CWM again using ODIN.
Enter CWM and:
1. select "wipe data/ factory reset"
2. go to "mounts and storage" and select "format /system"
3. on the same page, select "format /sdcard" (make sure you DO NOT format /external_sd by mistake)
After that, put the phone in Download mode again and flash the stock ROM using ODIN.

The guy before me has already told you the same thing (that's also why I didn't reply earlier to this thread) but yeah...apparently you didn't do everything he said. Maybe the more schematic/concise approach was better for you. So, as I said, you're welcome. Keep in mind to do that whenever you install a new ROM (be it stock or custom, but especially when switching from custom to stock ROM).
Best regards.
i would like to thank both of u guys thanks for your wisdom and sharing i can sell it now
Hello Dear Friends,
i want know how to flash 4.1.2 firmware from odin to my phone and I have stock 4.1.2 so I need to root my phone and recently I updated two official firmwares via OTA. So should I put md5 file to pda only but not other option like csc, modem, bootloader etc.. tell me is it correct? so will it not affect my phone?
kindly help me please
open Odin...select PDA and select md5 by name 'home/code'...
If other other files are not available just leave black..
If available put in their respective places

AFAIK the AMF7 only comes as 1 file- the tar.md5(plus the dll file which you will not use). So flash that tar.md5 file as it is. Do not open the archive. Better still install CWM recovery and flash k2wl stock roms. The are pre rooted.

Hello Vatsalbh9, follow the steps in video to root your phone.
1. Yes you need to root your device to use custom recovery.
2 & 3. You need to use odin first to get cwm recovery installed in your phone. Follow video steps.
4. When you have installed cwm recovery mode with odin, just go to recovery mode (keep holding vol up+power+home button until samsung galaxy grand gt i9082 logo appears on screen). Der you will see backup option. So make a nandroid backup in your external sd card and transfer that backup (clockworkmod folder in your ext sd card) in your laptop or pc for future use.
Download the files given in the description of the video.

Also I would suggest you to make efs backup. Go to the following thread for making efs backup

i will do accordingly and if any further query exists, will ask...

Follow these steps for nandroid backup :-
1. Enter into recovery mode(vol up+power+home button)
2. U will see many options like - reboot system, install from zip, wipe data... Bla bla bla... And BACKUP AND RESTORE
3. Select Backup & Restore option.
4. Once u select it, again many options will come but choose backup on ext sd card/sdcard01
5. Nandroid backup will take around 5-10 mins depending upon your data size.
6. Once the process is complete, you will see a text written on bottom of screen 'Backup is complete'.... Go back to previous menu and reboot your phone.
7. You will find "clockworkmode" folder in your ext sd card. This folder contains your nandroid backup. Transfer this folder to another safe location like pc or laptop.
Note.. While in cwm recovery mode, use vol up and down key for navigation and power key for selecting any particular option.
Also dont increase comments for saying thanks, just press the thanks button
For installing any custom rom, download and save the rom, GApps in your ext sd card and flash them in cwm recovery mode.
Steps for installing rom will be given in respective rom threads but generally these steps are to be performed :-
1. Wipe data/factory reset
2. Wipe cache partition
3. Wipe dalvik cache
4. Install rom(zip)
Once installation is complete, install GApps
5. Wipe cache partition
6. Wipe delvik cache
7. Reboot your phone.
First boot of every custom rom will take a longer time to boot.. Varying from 3-10 mins, so dont panic.
Also some custom roms require latest version of cwm recovery, so before installing custom rom, download the recovery and flash it..
1. In cwm( if it is a zip file)
Or
2. In odin( if it is a. Img or. Tar file)

Redo the process.... I think cwm is not installed on ur phone yet. When you see pass in odin.. Just remove the battery manually... Wait for 5-6 seconds.. Den reboot your phone.. Once a normal reboot is completed... Den go to recovery mode....
Hope u get it this time.
Ok...
Is the CWM provided in the YouTube link is latest ?
Cz if I want to install latest rom will it support ?
And is it necessary to flash supersu via CWM for installing custom rom ? Or only CWM is enough ?

No it isnt the latest version, but it will help you to proceed further. Once you get this cwm recovery mode, you can easily flash latest version as well.. And there will be a link given for recommend recovery in rom thread.
No it isnt necessary to flash super su as all cm11 based roms have inbuilt super su with them.
I already have custom ROM and 4.4.4 KitKat . I am very happy that I did it by the help of XDA forum
When can i get Android L update .

Seems like you dont have usb drivers installed properly in your pc. Does the ID:Com turns into blue color when you connect your phone to pc? If not then install samsung kies first on ur pc.
See d screenshot... The portion circled should be blue... Before hitting start.
Yes sir it turns blue...it says about ID:COM(3) something...
Odin says added...
Then only I start Flashing...

1. Use this recovery by pawitp
2. Untick Auto reboot checkbox in Odin.
3. Once Odin shows pass, remove battery, wait 10-15 secs, re-insert and enter Recovery mode (by pressing Vol up +. Power button + Home keys at once until u see boot loader screen and release immediately).

Before you start odin kill kies at background using task manager else it will fail
I didnt immediately took off the battery... I let the fon boot after flashing... I think im making a mistake there... cz I had checked auto reboot in my attempts...
Now im gonna try by unchecking auto reboot option...
When Odin will display Pass, I will disconnect fon from usb and then take off the battery...
Will wait for 15 secs and then will try to boot into recovery mode...
Hope its all done... Fingers crossed...
And I have to release all three buttons(up+home+power)when galaxy grand logo appears... is it right ?
