Hi there,
is it possible to copy the stock ROM via CWM back onto the phone?
Right now I am using Eragon 5.8 but there are some issues that might force me to go back to stock.
The SP flash tool is a bit messy for me and it only works on my work-computer for me... so a CWM installation would be great. Can I simply copy the .7z file onto the SD and go from there?
Thanks for your help!

No,you have to flash with SP flashtool.
Its easy on a Win 7, just follow these instructions from Elephone forum... http://bbs.elephone.hk/thread-1037-1-1.html#.Vkx0N-JQ5yp
It looks more complicated than it is,but once done its easy the next time.
If you want to install a recovery like the new TWRP one(the easiest to use) just do the same.
Hi connavear,
yeah it seems to be neccessary to use the SP flash tool. But right now I am on Eragon 5.9.2 and very happy.
Everything runs smooth, even my bluetooth connection to my car is back on track.
Search for instructions on how to use the flash tool. It works even on win10.

Hi 2 all!
I just flashed my device with android 2.2
But how can I get back to stock rom (RUU_Bravo_HTC_Europe_1.15.405.3_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_121865)?
The update program does not recognize my phone?
thanks
If you have flashed 2.2 then you have obviously rooted. It is just a matter of finding the rom you want. Put it on your SD card, and then use rom manager to flash it.
What exactly is not recognised?

...the htc rom update util does not recognice my handset...but I finally managed it. I had a backup and restored it with the rom manager.
How can I add the stock rom to the sd card. I looked at the files included in the stock rom (when it was extracted when entering setup) - do I need all files? Must I zip them??

Check the stickies. There's a thread full of stock ROMs (as .zips). Put it on your card, backup existing ROM, flash from zip (via ROM Manager or recovery).

I know this is for another thread but ROM manager is a tad temperamental on my phone. Won't let me install clockwork and Won't boot into recovery. All other tasks are greyed out. I do have ROOT and I am running a debranded ROM on an Orange phone.
Will take a look at the link above

....how I got back to stock:
I had a backup og my current stock rom with the rom manager. Within the rom manager I restored it. Thats all.
PS: There is nothing wrong with 2.2, but I like 2.1 stock ;-)
I'm asking because I specifically flashed another boot.img for Cyanogenmod 10.
Now, what are the exact steps I need to take to go back to stock ICS?
Do I need to flash a stock boot.img first, with fastboot or something, and then flash a stock ICS zip from ClockWorkMod?
I'm not really experienced with any of this, I've flashed only about 3 times but none of which required me to install a different boot.img (isn't that the kernel file?).
Any help would be amazing!

I always follow 2 steps in CWM
1.Flash advanced stock kernel and reboot.
2.Flash stock zip Rom.

Can this advanced stock kernel be flashed from within CWM as well as the ROM? I used something I believe was called fastboot for it.
And the kernel is indeed the boot.img then?

If you want to go back to stock, dont flash anything..
Now reverting back to stock is much easier as sony has released an official flashtool, just download the tool and latest firmware and flash it using the tool..
Once again dont flash any kernel or any rom if you want to completely go back to
stock.

Yep sure There are 2 versions of advanced stock kernel. One is flashed via fastboot and another one is flashed via CWM.
Then, on CM, Pac, Para which Rom are not based on stock one, boot.img is exactly the kernel

I tried this, but I couldn't get the official flash tool from Sony to work.
I apparently had to have a company when making an account to log in. Very odd.
I assumed this other flashtool made by probably xda developers did the same thing, but that one always gives me an error that I need to install the drivers first. Yet I've used this program before and back then I already went through all the hassle to install the correct drivers.
And now I don't know which drivers to install anymore.

You need to follow the instructions in sony's developer website for installing the flash tool..
Did you install the drivers using the drivers folder in flashtool??
And does your phone get recognized by the flashtool, I mean does it show your android version etc etc..??

Thanks A LOT!
Sony's beta flashtool, Emma, works like a CHARM!
I initially forgot to copy the customisation file from the zip to the installation folder. Thanks for reminding me to check the instructions
The unofficial flashtool couldn't recognise my phone, but Sony's one could.
Thanks so much for answering my questions, I'm starting to learn how it all works! If I could, I'd give you 10 thanks. But I think that's against the rules c:

Hi everyone,
I've been using PA for a while but it's become really buggy for me for some reason. Everything is incredibly slow and I have overheating issues with a few apps (like Hangouts).
I want to flash it back to Jelly Bean to see if it will help at all, can anyone tip into the right direction on how to do this from a custom ROM please?
Thanks for the help!
hm... I believe you can download the image from here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
and then flash the .tar file like you would with any custom rom. well, if it doesn't work it won't boot but you can always flash another custom rom so it may be worth a try

no no
you don't flash that tar file like a custom ROM.
it has all the necessary instructions on that page though I believe.
you use the files from in that tar, and flash them via fastboot.
to OP, there are sticky threads at top of one of these forums for how to return to stock.
all step by steps are easily found there as well as any helpful toolkits you might want to try which will basically do it all for you.
Hi Guys!
I switched to TWRP and did not backup the original recovery. Is there any way to get the original file and install over twrp to go back to stock? I use the Tab S-10.5 LTE if that does matter?
Thanks a lot!

Easiest way is to flash cf-autroot, it will replace recovery with stock. It will also root your device. To remove root just open the Super su app and select Full unroot from the settings.
Thanks a lot!
I will try it tomorrow
Hi Guys!
I still havent solved the problem! I cant install cf Autoroot! I have no idea why. I'd like to go back to a full stock device. Please do not argue with me about it.. i just like to do so
I'd really appriciate it if someone can provide me the original recovery (or is it the bootloader that twrp is?! - I dont know...). But the original file so I can go back to stock. I really tried to search for it on the web, but i really can´
t find it.
Thanks a lot! :fingers-crossed:
What do you mean you can't flash cfautoroot? Did you use the right one for your device?
You can pull the recovery image from any stock Rom. Just flash it with twrp using the image flash option or just flash the whole Rom.
Thanks!
I will try it!
I really dont know! I defnitly used the right cf autoroot file. But when i try to flash it, odin gets stuck in "setup connection"... It's stuck there until odin stops and shows the "fail" error massage?!
I use Windows and startet odin as administrator.

Do you get the added message? I take it you have extracted the tar file from the zip and not attempting to flash the zip directly?
Yes..Odin shows added..AND I extracted the tar file.
Really i have no idea what the problem is. I also made shure to use the right cf autoroot file...I don't know...
Since i can flash nearly everything else with success i dont think that i make a mistake
Do you have reactivation lock enabled?
I have absolutly no idea what you mean...could be a step forward

Help. How can I go back to stock rom if im using custom rom right now with magisk and custom kernel. Can someone teach me the process of what needs to remove before flashing the stock rom. Do I need to remove the custom kernel that I installed, magisk and twrp? Sorry for bad english. Help will be appreciated
You dont need remove nothing
Only download XiaoMiFlash, download a stock rom https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/how-to/ota-v9-6-4-0-odlmiff-t3823913 (Fastboot) and unzip the file, Off the device and restart in bootloader, connect to pc and flash the rom
That´s all
Best practices should be followed - always backup your settings, data, photos & documents, anything else you do NOT want to risk losing with the partitions being possibly wiped clean with a fresh stock installation - a) onto a formatted mSD card and/or b) onto a PC's stoarge/data drive(s) ... just in case.
Then, you can dirty flash stock rom without wiping data; or, for best results, wipe it for a clean, fresh install (then, restore save data once it is rebooted & running smoothly, settled down)
I guess, being lucky, running stock Pie roms, not downgrading back to Oreo stock roms as the tricky partition_A and partition_B can be confusing to newbies just starting out to learn the ADB & fastboot basics, etc. Good luck !
