Format your partitions back to rfs first before flashing with ODIN .

does it mean wipe data and wipe dalvik cache
and format system??
I believe wiping data & cache should be enough.
I flashed back to official ROM from unofficial CM7 using odin.
filesystem has no effect AFAIK for this.
Bayint Naung filesystem had an effect on this. If you flash stock firmware as onepackage you will get a bootloop, because onepackage doesn't format partitions back to rfs. But if you flash a mulitpackage firmware everything will by fine , it formats partitions back to rfs.

Multipackage is the one in sammobile
That Contrains 4 files?
Yes, if firmware have 4 files (PDA, CSD and other, I don't remember all) it is a multipackage.
Just download the stock rom. And flash it with odin.

Not just any stock rom dude. There r 2 types of stock roms. One package & multi(full) package. Multi package is the one that converts ur system from ext to rfs. If u flash one package on ext, ur fone wil go in bootloops.

But there is a file .tar as the i5500-downgrade.tar to return the data to the file system of Samsung? Or do not know if it works the same for our s5830? I would greatly appreciate your response. Thanks

I flashed using One package and my phone went into bootloop but I wiped cache through recovery menu and the phone is working fine but I wanted to know will this procedure cause any future trouble as I haven't changed file system.

I also flashed one package stock ROM today.
Got bootloop. but wiping cache does not help! But format system. then it boots fine
Can I Just flash CF-ROOT ? on stock ROM?
Anyone encountered SOD with CF-Root?
After flash, I'll get EXT-2 filesystem type for ROM??
Thanks. I'll try use this method

Downloaded a firmware from sammobiles and extracted it.
As other person said 'if firmware have 4 files (PDA, CSD and other) it is a multipackage' . But I don't see anything like that in this extract.
Help me to get the multipackage please. Also there is a file .tar as the i5500-downgrade.tar. Is there anything similar for our ace. If so please provide the link.
Thanks in advance.

HI all,
Have just tried flash my rom to 2.3.4 gingerbread rom (S5830DXKPB) from samfirmware. its working fine however my kernel version still show my old rooted kernel version 2.6.35.7-perf-CL5145579 [email protected] #1. Is this normal? how do i change the kernel num reflecting the 1 that its should be now?
don't use that lousy kernel, try ketut's cfroot kernel!
which 1 should i choose from this thread? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1158197
b80 or b80ex?

if ur using stock rom, the latest is b82-ex-fixed.zip. but u wont get bln support unless ur using stock rom DXKPB. if u want bln support on stock rom other than DXKPB, use cf-root b-80.

No, bln works for KPH KPN KPO too just needs a patched services.jar provided in the thread. Anyway he's using KPB so no worries.
hmm i tried flashing b80 just now from recovery. it say install complete but when i go settings and look at the kernel its still the same 2.6.35.7-perf-CL5145579 [email protected] #1. wonder where i go wrong

Wow , that's weird .
Thats y but i believe the kernel is already flashed as i hv superuser,tweak, and cwm in my app drawer. Just that i got no idea y it does not reflect the changes.
Wonder is it because when i first flssh the stock gingerbread from samfirmwsre, i did not wipe data and factory reset.
Today I flashed my phone for the first time from stock 2.3.5 to CM7.1. Now I'm wondering, doI have to do some weird complex procedure every time I want to switch to a different rom? Or can I just put it to the root of the SD and flash it via cmw?
Also, I read that to go back to the stock rom, I need to flash the whole package back. I have no idea what that means. Can anyone explain what it is and how to do it? Thanks in advance.
You need to find a full package file, one that has different boot, modem and pda and csc to flash in Odin.
which is opposed to the one package containing only one tar file!

You have to backup your rom then wipe data/factory reset then wipe cache. Then you can flash ur desired rom

Hey!
Jeah, always do the BACKUP(better in CWM, but you can use the Titanium Backup too[its not backup ENTIRE ROM, only APPS and settings]), only then flash or do some serious things. You never know ahead, whats waiting under corner, if you flashing. Simple flash can break and you get stuck in the middle.
CHEERS!
I am new to flashing of ROM and have never done that,
After reading all above post, I want to ask if I flash any custom rom (Like cyanomod or modified stock rom) If I want to go back to stock rom of my Ace 2.3.4, can I restore the back up that I have taken from CWM. There are following files in the backup
Android.img
boot.img
cache.img
data.img
nandroid.md5
recovery.img
system.img
Sorry in advance if I am asking any silly question and Thanks in advance for the support

Those procedures change from rom to rom,for some you might need to be at a certain baseband while for others you might need to clear cache,data and dalvik cache.Flashing through cwm is the easiest method if you ask me and one precaution you have to take before flashing any rom is a FULL NANDROID BACKUP,you never know what might happen.

Basically, if u have those 5 files like MODEM CSC ... U need to flash with odin... If u jus have a .zip, u can flash it with CWM.

Ur file system is ext4 now and stock Roms require rfs file system ...
Just flash a stock rom first, then restore your backup
P.S. confirm that the stock rom or custom rom based on stock u flash has rfs file system
Edit: or try to do a "wipe cache partition " if this doesn't work follow the above steps
well i guess that can be the problem. xperiatized is based on ext4 partirion system. and i've tried wiping cache but didn't worked.
i guess i have to flash rom through odin then :-(

But why do u want stock rom again? ?
Have u heard of an awesome rom called CM7 ?
yes man....one can't be so silly not knowing about cm ;-)
and does it mean that i will not be able to restore my stock rom again as almost all roms are based on ext4 partition?
You got the wrong file format, reflash stock via odin then try restore. Wipe cache after that
if I help please hit thanks :beer:

Lol I was just recommending cm7 ....dude u flash a stock rom via Odin first then root your phone again ( yes root access will get wiped by flashing stock rom) then install cwm and restore your backup ( if it has some important data it doesn't make sense to take all this trouble otherwise )

after restoring your backup, restore BOOT from a cm7 rom
I'm having the same problem, if i do a factory reset from Clockwork recovery,it will give me stock rom? I don't really want to use my pc when i'm going to turn back to stock because of possible usb/connection problems..
Try using stocklite, its DDKQ8. I like that rom a lot. Good battery life, speed and no bugs as far as i know.
If you don't want to flash it with odin try flashing Stocklite v6 and then restoring the backup

If you flashed a one package firmware , the ext4 filesystem would not be supported , hence resulting it being unable to boot up + the leftovers in /data and /cache make it hard for Froyo

i can flash anything but still it doesn't work. on gingerbread i can almost go as far as on the video . But when i flash ICS stock rom it could go to the S2 animation before it shuts down.
I had some problem..
I solved changing just the kernel and it started working again, just use Odin..
ALready changed kernel still aint working. ALso when in CWM , it says cant unmount emmc ,what does this mean? And on android recovery idit says install preload customer failed something like te thathat
Seems like faulty hardware for me...

Boot loop. Can most commonly be fixed by flashing stock firmware for your phone.
Can you confirm the model of your phone? I know the boot screen says GT-I9100, but what is printed on the label under your battery?
it says i9100 also so there's nothing wrong when choosing rom. do you know if -rw mounting has anything to do with this?
I had the same problem , wiped cache and dalvik cache and wiped data then installed jb compatible siyah and Rootbox jb 2.3 .. then my phone booted up
in ur case .. U have messed something up with a root app , and u will be able to flash slim ics and jb roms .. Other roms will give u a boot loop
Dont install a 4.0.4 rom and wipe anything .. Coz this will result in a hardbrick .. So be careful!!!
