[Q] Easiest way to go back to stock ROM from FXP30b? - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi. I'm on FXP30b, and I need to go back to stock ROM for some test with headset, what's the easiest way to do it? I have backup of stock but from xrecovery(I guess I can't restore it using CWM Recovery). I think the fastest way is to flash Baseband .71 with stock kernel and stock ROM? What about going back to FXP30b from stock, can I just flash FXP kernel and with CWM recovery restore my current backup? Will that work?

the easiest way would be to do a factory reset using your SEUS or PC companion, just click on repair then you can always root it again so you could get back to your current version, just make a back up of what you have now

Use flashtool

You can use something like MyBackup pro to backup your apps & stuff, but you won't get an 'image' of your setup like you will with a Nandroid backup done in CWRecovery. Or you could probably use Kies I guess (not sure about how this works though, have never used Kies for anything).
Best way to go would be to install CWM then do your backup before you go making any other changes to your phone (like flashing a custom rom). This will give you a backup of your setup as close as possible to it's original state (tho obviously rooted).
If you want to go back completely to stock (no root), all you'd need to do would be to download your original firmware from somewhere like Sammobile.com (until Intra gets his stock firmware collection up and running again) and flash that in Odin. Or you could get the latest stock firmware available for your phone/carrier/country with Checkfus (PC app, search for it on here/Google) flash the tarball you download in Odin.

Don't think CWM backs up your stock recovery just everything else, to revert back to stock recovery you would just have to flash stock firmware but lose root in the process.

Just as addition to MisthaBungle:
1. Flash a kernel containing CWM recovery (such as CF-Root).
2. Create a Nandroid backup in recovery mode (or use CWM Manager app if available).
If you want or have to restore your stock system, you can restore this Nandroid backup, but you will have to flash the stock kernel afterwards in order to replace the insecure/custom kernel containing the CWM recovery.
Alternatively you can do it like bubba949 described:
Just download and flash the latest officially released stock ROM to your phone, if you want or have to go back to stock.
I recommend to do a Nandroid backup before flashing a new kernel/ROM, just to be sure that you are able to go a step back in case something does not work.
So you will have an additional option ;-)
Thanks all of you for your assistance. I'm doing well with my phone since root.

Do you first want to go back to stock/standard rom? Or just switch to Clean?
If you want to go back, i hope you made a backup, that makes things easier
If you just want to switch to a new rom, just do it the same way as you flashed CM7. Boot into CWM/xRecovery, choose zip, flash, factoryreset and wipe.
it's not just need the PC companion?.
I have a question. I want to restock my rom from the last backup I made from xRecovery, but im now with CWMRecovery, how can I boot into old xRecovery?
with cwm you have the option to restore using xrecovery backups

[Q] Switching between version with ClockworkMod Recovery

I currently have stock GB version 2.3.5. I plan to flash CF-Root kernel with ClockworkMod Recovery and flash ICS. If I make backup of my current version will I be able to revert to it once I install ICS? Or will flashing ICS flash a kernel which is incompatible with GB?
Yes if i make a backup of 2.3.5 i can flash a ICS rom and from there even if i flash a custom recovery for ICS i can still restore my 2.3.5 backup its "universal"

So will I need to flash another recovery after flashing ICS or will ClockworkMod Recovery still be there?
Clockworkmod will still be there no matter what 2.3 or 4.0 rom you use just that every rom tend to have their own "themed" version of cwm. but they all still backup and restore the same way. Just a note, for the SII the recovery is part of the boot.img (had to get this in my head the first time as my old phone was different

I'm not 100% sure what that means so do I need to take some extra steps because of it?
Erm if you dont know what it means then its ok (it was meant for those that has prior experince)
Just to add, if you go stock using Odin, cwm won't be there until you flash cfroot or similar.

Revert to Stock Rom using TWRP?

So I have a Galaxy S3 i747(at&t) rooted and with an unlocked bootloader. Currently running Cyanogenmod with TWRP recovery.
I'm trying to downgrade back to Touchwiz for the purposes of using an unlock code that AT&T provided me with (apparently it doesn't work with AOSP roms). Any chance I could safely use TWRP to flash the stock rom, and then use TWRP to flash Cyanogenmod back right after?
I've read from here and there that flashing the stock room with an unlocked bootloader and/or flashing the stock room NOT using Odin could brick the phone, etc etc.
Sorry if this question has been answered quite a few times, I've seen quite a few different answers regarding this floating around.
Cheers
You must flash stock ROM via Odin
After root again and flash custom recovery

Guess there is no way to NOT use Odin :/
Do I have to relock the bootloader/unroot the phone before I flash with Odin? Also, will it put the phone back to Stock Recovery or can I keep TWRP?
And one last thing before I go through with this...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2388065
Is this^ a possible way to go back to stock without going through Odin and losing everything? (Remember, I'm just trying to get to a TW based rom so I can use the unlock code). And if so, can I just flash that rom with TWRP?
I dont think that would be possible. ...u have to use odin
Try and backup your data before u do ..if it helps
Your phone may end up in bootloop if u try with twrp

Via TWRP you are able to flash backup of stock ROM. If you have it

[Q] cant restore stock rom

i was on stock 4.1.2 and i flashed slimkat 4.4.4 before i flashed slimkat i backuped stock rom but when i go into twrp and click restore it says nothing was found but the backuped rom is still there cause i checked with file explorer how can i restore the stock rom? or do i have to flash stock rom again to go stock?
Depends. The stock ROM has to be backed up using the same recovery as your using. If not then you won't be able to use it.
The best bet is to either flash the previous recovery you used to back up the stock ROM or just do a factory reset and flash the stock ROM again. Make sure you do a backup of your current ROM in case it fails to flash. If it does fail, you'll need to reflash using an older recovery perhaps since Kitkat and Jellybean use different mdsums.
