thx
Odin's a lot easier to use than i thought it would be. pretty straightforward with a guide
Here's a tutorial to use ODIN...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=810130
It probably won't be JI6 but rather JFD, just update to JI6 later after install if you want.

You do not have to go back to stock kernel, you can just use odin to install JI6.
JI6 has some improvements over the stock rom, but it is not really 2.2 froyo.
If I were you I would rather install the Bionix fusion, which seems to be much more stable than the Ji6 or the stock rom.
I have researched this and am getting more confused by the minute. I have installed Bionix Final stock and I am considering going back to ji6. I have read that I must flash the ji6 kernel even though I dont believe that bionix changed the kernel. When and how must this be done? After flashing to ji6? I would most appreciate it if someone could tell me the steps taken to flash just the kernel or if that is even necessary and also if I can just flash through Clockwork to go back to stock ji7 when Froyo is sent OTA. Would it be safer or easier to just use Odin? Any and all replies are most appreciated!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

thanks for the reply but I read this thread and still am confused. Sorry I am not as informed or astute as you are. Let me mention I am a complete nubie and am looking for simple steps or instructions or answers. I am continuing to search the threads for more information. Its becoming evident to me that I should never have flashed Bionix Final as it appears that there is not a lot of support or help for nubies who have questions and do not understand some of the procedures or terms.
Bionix fusion is based on ji6. It does not actually use the ji6 kernel. It is using a modified jfd kernel so I would not recommend flashing ji6 kernel over the top of it. If you would like to go back to the stock ji6 I recomend odin back to it. But if you wanted you could use jacs kernel or kings kernel if your not happy. Fusion also came in three flavors stock, jacs, kings.
Friends don't let friends flash drunk...
Thanks so much for the helpful reply. Does Bionix final have the same kernel as the fusion does? I am on Bionix Final. I will use Odin to flash back to ji6. Would I use just the tar and pit or do I have to repartition as well? It seems the swype keyboard I am so fond of will not go into landscape mode nor will any of the other keyboards. I have checked the settings and can find nothing that would affect this situation. That is one of the reasons I am contemplating going back to ji6. thanks again for the help and kindness. any info on my other questions is greatly appreciated.
All the bionix roms are using the modified jfd kernel. Im using bionix final r1 and im not having any problems with swipe. I find it to be the best touchwiz rom out there. If you do want to go back to stock use the 512 pit amd the ji6 tar and you don't have to check the repartition box. But if your like me and flash lots of roms I would check the box to get all the ghosts out of the closets (fix force closer issues).
Friends don't let friends flash drunk...
Thanks again. I will put your information to good use. I may stay on bionix final for a while longer. I am overjoyed that I now have the correct procedures to flash back when the time comes. Many thanks and Blessings.

Odin did not destroy your phone, impropper use of Odin by the user did.
Follow the Odin steps above to correctly go back to JFD and start over. There really shouldnt be any reason to go back to stock when going from Nero V2 to V3 though.

Agreed. Emphasis mine.
Nero V3 doesn't even exist yet. Improper Odin use definitely caused this little mishap.

Som posted a link to it on page 118 of the Nerov2 thread.
A friend updated to 2.2 via mini KIES. His GPS doesnt work very well anymore and he is missing the default Android keyboard which he uses all the time.
Can he rollback to 2.1 without rooting?
He can go back to stock with odin. If that's the case though, I'd odin back to stock and redo the upgrade with kies. Seems to fix alot of issues people have.

If he can get it into download mode...then use Odin to go back to stock 2.1
So where does he get the 2.1 Stock image?

Guys, I want to ODIN to Froyo 2.2 because I don't want to use Sam Kies. Earlier, I had ODIN'd to 2.1 Eclair but it is plain boring! Anyway, I found the Stock Froyo files at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1036193 but the OP didn't post the PIT file. I searched the thread and someone asked the same question but in reply, someone else said that you can do a one click install. I can't post in that thread due to my current post count (I am fairly new and noob here) so I had to start a new thread. How do I ODIN to Froyo with a MD5 tar file with no PIT file?
Thank you everyone!
search for a 512.pit file in the forums....if not I happen to have it,will gladly provide it.
Thank you for your help! I used ROM Manager premium and upgrade to Froyo instead of using Samsung Kies. Now, the whole reason to ROOT my phone was to get rid of the damn LAG!!!!!!! It is driving me crazy. I would LOVE to stay on stock but get rid of LAG somehow. I looked into Voodoo but it messed up my phone before so I don't wana take that route. Any other suggestions? How about OCLF? Would it work on Froyo?
Voodooo rocks clocks! Any custom FROYO ROM will have it. Check in recovery if its enabled or disabled. Good luck!
