Right now my phone is running Dorian's RedPill V3 + faux's kernal.
I want to start fresh and wipe everything. What would be the best way to do so?

Flash 4.5.91 fruitcake via CWM... see samcripp's Fruitcake thread in the Dev. Section. Better than sbf flashing b/c you don't have to mess with RSD Lite.

You can just flash. Do a data wipe, the op for the rom tells you all the instructions

The general consensus is that Bionix V flashes well on top of other roms. Official TeamWhiskey forums say that you do not need to disable voodoo if coming from one of their previous roms, but you may want to disable it if you're coming from Axura or the like just to be safe.
Hi, im running alien #4 at the moment but i was wondering how i can go back to stock so i can reflash from therebecause the fingerprint scanner isnt working. Ive already tried just reflashing from alien or flashing other roms also. thanks!

Have you tried a fruitcake recovery? Those are about as stock as you can get.

Is it possible to remove a kernel such as glitch or Bali without reflashing rom?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
You could find out what the kernel the rom you flashed came with and search in development for it inside the bible. Download it and flash in clockwork. Think you wipe davlik and fix permissions after flash. you can flash new kernels on top of old ones won't change your rom.

Use sgs kernel flasher from the market. Back up your current kernel and flash whatever one you want. Just make sure its compatible with your rom and you should be good to go. Only takes 2min and you'll be done. Good luck!

It doesn't hurt but I never did. Just flash the kernel and let your phone reboot.

After much thought regarding the 911 issue with CM7, I have decided to downgrade back to 2.2. Although 2.2 is outdated, it has a better GPS, battery life, and working 911.
What I want to know is how can I wipe everything before downgrading back to stock? This includes all music and various files left around by me throughout the years. I also want to know what the best kernel for 2.2 is in terms of battery life or should I leave it as stock?

format internal and external sd card under mounts and storage in recovery. Bali kernel
Sent from my T959 using XDA App
I don't think formatting will work because the recovery is updated and trying to install and older 2.2 ROM will complain about broken scripts in CWM. You may have to Odin back if I I'm not mistaken.

sorry, and not just my opinion, when you start over start clean and odin to stock, 'ghost in the machine', its real

Yep thanks for the help guys. Now I'm on the process of getting Bali on here as a kernel but I don't know which one to pick. The reguler release or the UV or undervolt release.

I'm assuming you don't already have clockwork recovery on your phone? If not go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=849028 and flash clockwork mod recovery with the update.zip in section B) in the guide. Once you have that taken care of you simply go pick a rom from the development section and follow the instructions which are usually factory data reset, wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache from recovery menu then install zip from sd card. Some ROMs recommend flashing a gingerbread ROM before flashing an ICS or JB ROM. If you want a completely working phone I would recommend one of fishman or moped ryders 2.2 ROMS, ICS has the EU bug and bad gps, and JB is still in beta builds I believe. Just remember you can always upgrade by flashing with no problems but if you ever want to down grade you must Odin to stock 2.1 then go from there.

Look at my signature for a guide on how to install ICS ROMs. You'll need to look at it on your PC though and not the phone app.

I don't think he can see or SIG on xda premium, but anyway flash a froyo GB or ICS rom then flash the jellybean ROM.
Sent from my Jellied out Vibrant sandwich.
Check out the Hellybean nightlies Here and here and the Devil Kernel for ICS here and Jelly Bean here for the Galaxy S and variants.
Or you could use Odin to flash a gingerbread bootloader then flash jellybean right then.
