Thanks for quick response even though thats not what I wanted to hear. lol
I say just Odin first to be safe. Doesn't take too long anyways
I tried simply honey myself but didn't like it also tried trigger 2.3.5 but neither one made me happy so I went back to bionix nexgen gingerbread has too many issues

Why would you want to do that when you can just flash ICS?
Ok how.
Do i need the original kernal for this. Or can i do it over villianrom.
Sorry bit of a newbiee to this.

Is there a way for me to install leaked ICS on my non rooted at&t note, then if I don't like it, go back to gingerbread without rooting or problems?? Thanks for any help! I can't take not having ICS anymore!

The leaks both have odin built in and don't require that you be rooted to use. Just download double click and enjoy.
There's a new more complete leak coming soon.

I understand that I don't need to be rooted. My question is...IF I would like to go back to Gingerbread from a leak without rooting, could I? That way I could get the OTA?

Wait for the new leak above. You can flash it with odin via your pc. If you don't like it (you will) you can flash back to stock also via odin. Its 100% easier just to root though. When the OTA comes out it will posted here in a matter of minutes for everyone to flash and enjoy.

Without root access you can't back up your apps and your phone.
But you can always flash the stock gingerbread with odin and raise your flash counter.
Thanks for all the advice! I have never used Odin before. I'm used to just dropping a ROM on the card and flashing or just plugging into my computer for something I downloaded. This is my first Samsung Galaxy device. Anything I should know before hand? My previous device was a Droid X.

You mean if the OTA released by AT&T.. I need to flash that with ODIN again?
If I go back to stock Gingerbread via ODIN.. then I can update OTA not necessarily using ODIN again.. right?
sorry for my dumb question..

Right. If you odin back to stock gingerbread you can wait for the OTA update. Whenever that may come. OR you can flash the update via odin when it comes out. Whenever it comes out officially you can use the method of your choice.

This is an extremely noob question probably but I need to ask. Could somebody please explain to me how to Odin to ICS and how to get back to Gingerbread using Odin? Sorry for the dumb question but again I need to know before I do this. Never used it before.

I recommened you root, its easy
then you can simply flash ICS. if no likee, use your backup from Nandroid,which will save all your files , texts, programs, call logs, etc(when you odin to stock you'll have a brand new like rom,no data)
Hi all,
I don't have time at the moment to flash a stock rom with Odin at the moment, so i was wondering if anyone knows where I can get a XXWLPG rom without Jkay?
I want to try out this s3 lock screen
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1742397
But I have to have either a LPG or LPM rom without Jkay to use it.
Does anyone know where I can get a cwm flasherble one from?
Thanks in advance
Cheers
Corey

Why don't you use Mobile Odin app (=> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1347899) to flash the stock ROM as tar file?
You only need to be rooted, then install Mobile Odin app and flash the stock ROM ... on device flashing.
If you are already on ICS, should work fine.
Have done this from stock XWLPD ROM to XWLPG and XWLPM.
I can also confirm that mobile odin is easy to use and works well, I've never had a problem with it. Perfect for flashing official ROMs in tar format.

Ok thanks heaps
I will do that.
I didn't want to use it before, as I was not sure how safe it was, but I will give it a try. Thanks
