Hi guys I wanted to get my Vibrant from custom rom n rooted to stock rom and unrooted
i read bunch of thread including the [ROM] OFFICIAL T-Mo Vibrant JFD ODIN/Nandroid Backup Images 7/29/10 (Tested/Working)
but i can't figure out which is the right method i need to use...
i didn't use Odin, i used OneclickRoot and Rom manager to install clockwork recovery and the custom rom (nerov3)
so can anyone give me a step by step process to how to proceed w/ the back to stock
i would really appreciate it
thanks
Just read up on the ODIN.. when you go back to stock, you'll be unrooted automatically
Here the link with tutorial.

I just want to say Thank you for the link you provided. Most posts replying to questions are the usual "just do a little searching ..." and no one ever provides a starting point.
I've spent a lot of time "searching" and running into conflicting information or information pertaining to a completely different issue.
So again, Thank you for the link. It made this post simple.
[EDIT] I almost forgot to ask jimprime, why are you wanting to go back to stock and unrooted ?
I have not yet rooted, but have noticed a lot of people are looking at going back to stock and I am curious. Why root in the first place?
well first its not really my phone second i just wanted to try out froyo on the vibrant didn't c much difference and i didn't really find it that much faster than the stock and i switch back to stock
yea this helps out alot

Is that what you are looking for? You can always flash an root it yourself. There is a one button tool.
Im not sure if thats the way i need to go....i am curantly running axura 2.2.5.9 and everything is opperating fine but i, at this time still like the orig system and just want to flash back to it the way i fashed to axura.....please do forgive my lack of knowledge for i am still in the learning stage but not the scared stage ;-)

You will more thank likely have to go back to true stock using Odin. I do not think there are any roms that include root access with them. Root acess is what allows you to flash a rom as well as gain super user access to the device.
Here is a link to a true stock 2.1 rom, Flashable via odin only. http://www.mediafire.com/?8kw71bx06an0vwg
Ok thanks guys I tried to restore to my back up but it soft bricked I guess.... kept looping in boot up.....but before I did anything I download nero3...so went into recovery mode and load that and WOW! I love it....same feel as original rom so far as I can tell but with 2.2 and some sweet changes

Hi Guys
I have been on xda for a while, earlier I was using HD2 and learn quite alot from this community. Now I have got Vibrant as well reading about it on xda forums is a little confusing for me. Vibrant is not as easily flash able as HD2. So need your help guys. Let me tell you about device-
1.Its rooted and CWR is installed.
2.I installed the CyanogenMod 7 and it was working fine, Then I read about voodoo sound, to get it I flashed supported kernel -CM7_Vibrant_kernel_kang_20110504_r10_update.zip this one, but after installing it phone is not getting any signals and camera stopped working.
3.Well later on I thought to install bionix-v-1.3.1.zip but CWR is not installing saying not supported and operation abort.
Questions-
1.How do I go back to Froyo from gingrebread?
2.How to enable vooodoo sound?
Last but not the least I am already tired of flashing ROMs on my HD2 and I need little break. So please suggest best and stable ROM with vooodoo sound. So that I can use it for a while without facing any issue. Froyo or gingerbread any will do.
And please link me to some guide of vibrant where I can read and understand it. I found some guides but they dont seem complete.
Thanks in advance.

I suggest you download the AIO Toolbox. It has everything you will ever need. I believe its the very first post on the vibrant android development forum.
You need to ODIN back to stock to get to FROYO. (use the toolbox, it has ODIN)
as for a stable froyo ROM, i suggest Project V, lots of themes + the sweet edt tweaks app.
Hope that helps
I moved away from eclair the moment i got my phone (wait for it) but whenever i move from froyo to ginger or voce versa, i always odin first and look for instructions in OP...
Alright, kang doesnt seem to be stable, similar thhing happened to me.. flash glitch or kernel du jour for CM7.. WAY BETTER and both have voodoo color and sound... once you have em, download voodoo control from market, altho they should be active by default.
Idk too much about froyo roms; i rememver using bionix 1.3.1 and loving it.

Hello guys,i am a complete novice to dell and have a dell streak 5 that is running android version
2.2.2
base band version GAUSB1A135100-EU.
kernel version
2.6.32.9-dj_steve-BFS-CFQ-KGSL2D-Vol-OC
oem version

build number
StreakDroid 1.9.0 from a DJ steve (on device when i purchased) and has basically ground to a Holt
I do not have much of an idea but i know that it needs updating.having read the forums about the updates my head is all over the place.
i ask please for a link to the correct firmware i need to flash.. and what i need to flash with the easiest way
Hope you can help me and point me in the right direction..I have took the time to read the forums but i still have no idea what i need for this device
as i have just received it.
Many many thanks in advance
Rather open-ended question because the correct firmware is going to vary depending on what you want to do. For instance, do you wish to revert to a stock ROM? Do you want to be as up to date as possible? Are certain features important to you?
I personally don't recommend going back to stock, but to go forward and get a custom gingerbread ROM. Check the development forum for four good ones: Longhorn 2.9.1, DSC 1.2, Cyanogenmod 7, and MIUI.

Hi and thanks for taking time to reply,I am going to go back to stock to keep it as simple as possible to move device on,if its running stock there can be no hassles for new owner,i have the dell stock gingerbread update.
I will do a factory reset prior to flash and then put update on root of sd then boot to recovery and install IS THAT CORRECT?
many thanks

no need to revert to stock then... streakdroid 1.9 is the best for 2.2.2... so whats the point on going back to stock...? all stock are not optimized at all and have many hidden and useless application in it...
last time i tried using the deodexed stock but still it is not enough and does drain the battery too... custom rom is way better...
but if you insist on going stock.. i am not stopping you.. do what ever you want.. also updating to stock gingerbread such as olleh 407 has its own problem too...

First thanks for you help and taking time to reply'second I have searched and read and as I said it is totally confusing for me as new to dell'some folks need to read why Xda started and about the journey'why do some folks get upset when others ask for help,not everyone is at the same level of android knowledge as others and therfore need a little help,I have helped many users on xda and never even thought are you stupid or what,can you not read...I have given it gladly as I was there once...
Help should be given willingly and without knowledge bias or you should not bother being on the site'just because you know more about a certain piece of kit does not give anyone the right to be all high and mighty...you know this thread inside out I do not so I asked for help.
Some folks need to take a look back at when thier journey into android started...did you ask for help??.have you never asked for help??

I see from other posts that you are going to put 407 on the device and with this post why you're going that route is clear. Factory reset isn't required prior to flashing because flashing the ROM itself will wipe everything. What is required is that the stock recovery image for 407 be placed on the device before attempting to flash the ROM. Otherwise it won't work. I'm not going to go into detail on how to change the recovery image because there are sticky posts galore that have all the relevant info. A good thread to look at is in Streak 5 Android Development, titled "Everything you always wanted to know about the Streak but were too busy bricking it".

Hi mate thank you for your kind help,yes I have the stock recovery to flash first.the download contained both recovery and rom image.
I think I am about there with what to do...flash recovery with flashboot then boot to that recovery and install firmware from sd card having changed to update 'what I am still a little perplexed about is the region I think the firmware is 00,what do I need for U.K.

I get all that but I needed to ask...and folks should not be made to feel bad just because they have asked for help... I had no idea as to what to search for as I have never even seen a dell before,I assumed it would be as other androids get a stock rom and just flash but was hit with so many differant roms...ones for each region etc.l could not find a post that said LATEST STOCK ROM FOR U.K DELL STREAK 5 or anything like it,and it was a hell of a lot more complicated than I imagined so I was stuck and asked for help.Thankfully with the snippets of help I have been given I am more knowledgable now and even capable of flashing the device properly I hope...and if for some reason someone else needs to know the same I will pass on what I have learnt from you guys gladly to help a android user
Once again thank you for your help and infomation

The country you are in and the carrier you are using do not matter when it comes to flashing a Streak ROM. All that matters is whether the region of the recovery matches the region of the ROM you are installing. Thus, for 407, you would need a region 14 recovery as 407 is a region 14 ROM. Unlocked Streaks purchased direct from Dell had their own region, 00. To flash one of those ROMs, e.g. 360, you would need a region 00 recovery.
I hope that clears things up.

All, I am a noob to this and could really use the help. Everything seems so convoluted.
I just returned my phone to AT&T because of some issues.I was able to root that one without an issue. However they now provided another phone with ICS on it. I don't want to install a ROM or change the kernel. Just want to use the AT&T software and have it come up the same way just rooted. I saw the GalaxyS2Root.com site but it changes the kernel to Siyah an load up screen picture is different.
I want to have the ability to load titanium back up and freeze the tethering program so I can tether my tablet.

Dont go to galaxys2root and read the damn stickies. Cmon man!
I wish I could update the how to root guide in the stickies, but I'm not the original poster and the original poster has been gone from the forums since before Christmas. For what you want, use Odin to flash stock ICS plus root, which you can find in the development section, probably on the 2nd page.

Well... section 6 deals with rooting from stock so that you can continue on...

Flashing to 4.2 rom
If you want to take an easier jump into 4.2 rather than going through all the crap. Check out VegasRomeos shortcut Here. It works great and is simple.
