Hello.
Is your bootloader unlocked? Or you installed CWM using nAa's installer?
Thanks,

Do not worry.
Check the Downgrade to GB section here:
http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/35239?tstart=0
Steps are easy to follow and hopefully will solve your issue. And for ftf files for firmwares other than those listed there, search here on XDA.
And for your information, never try to flash a ROM using CWM by nAa's method. That CWM recovery is at /system. And most Roms replace the/system, and thus messes with the CWM on way. So, if you want to flash custom Roms, unlock the bootloader.
Thanks,
Rick

Sorry friend you do not have the full backup of your original ROM. Had it was easy.
I'll try to help you with a hint can not say that it will work. For I have not tried this.
Go here to download the ZIP file http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1568792refente the ROM of your device. Then please make sure that you load on | You will need to charge your battery in another material. After that try to install the ROM ZIP with CWM. I believe this will work. : Cool:After I installed a wrong kernel LWW my phone stopped starting. I could not even outrar Kernel flasher so it was thanks to CWM that saved the life of my phone with Full Backup Original ROM that always has to be done before anything else.

So you install the latest flashtool version. Afterwards you download the gingerbread (or ics) ftf for your device. You install all drivers from flashtool installation folder> drivers. Now you launch flashtool, click on the flash, select flashmode and choose the ftf. Now turn phone off, hold volume up and while holding plug in pc. Don't turn phone on, just connect while holding volume down. Flashtool will automaticly flash the ftf.
Just restart and see what happens

How about flashing a custom kernel with cwm (flash again if you already have one) , remove memory card, don't try to boot into the Rom! Just boot into cwm wipe everything! (cache/dalvik/data/system/batterystats) literally wipe everything you could wipe . Then flash the generic firmware for your phone. I think that should do the trick.

hey guys.. am still new to the world of ANDROID.. so i need some help please..
i wanted to update my GB Samsung Galaxy SII rom to the ICS rom.. so i wanted to start by rooting..
i rooted my phone and everything went okay and i also removed the Yellow Triangle..
my problem is.. now i want to flash a new rom to my S2..
i booted into recovery mode..
1st problem is that i didn't find a "Backup & Recovery" option as i saw in many videos..
the main problem is that i wiped the cash and the user data
but when i clicked on apply * from sdcard !!
and choosed the rom i've downloaded.. it didn't work.. i had an error saying that E: Signature Verification Failed
so.. and when i wanted to do a recovery using the CWM app.. i didn't find the backup and recovery option
if you have acsess to download mode, then reroot your phone, then you will gain acsess again to recovery & backup.

Sorry, I didn't express myself correctly. I meant you can reflash a stock unrooted firmware (kernel, rom) and then root it again.
okay guys.. am so sorry for the mistake i've made.. my probles was that i was going to the reboot mode using the cwm.. not the up-home-power buttons..
i told you am still new .. i thought they are the same .. anyway...
i recovered the rom with all the apps and everything is okay now.. but
the question is why i can't flash that rom ?? .. even with the right recovery mod it's still doesn't want to be flashed. ??
could it be because of the version of the rom ! ??
and is there a way to know what rom can i flash ??
and i also have a problem.. it's that the samsung kies isn't supporting my device.. i used it once and after rooting my cell it doesnt want to work again.. ??

First off you don't need to be rooted to up grade your firmware. The best source for firmwares is Samfirmware.com where you download a tar. file then flash it in the PDA section of odin. Please read the sticky threads in this forum as there is loads of good advice and guides from expert users. All the best.

Thank you all guys.. i flashed the ICS 4.0.4 firmware to my Galaxy S2 I9100.. and everything is okay..
now i am wondering how to root it ?
is it the same way for the GB?
actually i tried the same way but when i flashed the CF Root --LPH my phone died !! .. i mean it begin restarting every time i turn it on..
my Baseband version is I9100XXLQ6
and the kernal version is I900JPLPH
please send me a link that works..
There are a couple of methods to root. If you only want to root and not bother with custom ROMs, kernels and the like, use Rachmat3's temporary cwm to get root. Search for it.
If you wanna install custom ROMs, you could install a the TAR version of a custom kernel like siyah or dorimanx via Odin. Steps on how to do so can again be found with a simple search.

This should do,
1) Backup everything
2) Install Siyah Kernel (latest: http://www.gokhanmoral.com/?p=1536) using Odin (tar file)
3) Now you are rooted with Siyah Kernel and a CWM based recovery
4) You can then install any ROM/Kernel of your choice (if you need)
But "Search" - There are countless threads

flash my XMP with flashtool using GB and ICS roms
reinstall the firmware with SEUS

if u guys had made a backup in recovery before flashing u cud have restored it.
i assume u havent done so . therefore use flashtool to flash new firmware or simply try installing a new ROM and see if TS is working !

As far as I know, the kernel should be in the rom.zip (it's the boot.img). Extract it and flash it using flashtool or the fastboot tools
Otherwise search for a kernel for android 4.2.2 in Dev section and flash that one. Should work too

One thing to remember is, before flashing a custom ROM or MOD, ALWAYS MAKE A BACKUP.
To be on the safer side, backup every week or so and keep the last two or three backups.

Hi... I guess I am unable to do anything...
Is there a simpler method??
I mean I tried some of the methods in your post... But no luck...
Can't I just flash an old rom to get my screen working?? Isn't there anyone who has created a software for this...
Please help... I am utterly confused and frustrated...

Hello guys, please forgive me if any of this has caused the slightest troubles to you
So,
i just rooted my phone a day ago and installed clockwork mod too...
i am a total newbie and don't know anything about this.... So i went searching for some custom mods for my sk17i or Xperia mini pro...
And i found one on this site http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2102979
So then i installed it from the instructions given on most of the websites... i had a kernel of 4.1.b.0.587 on the phone and i don't even know much about flashtool...
Now the rom is installed or whatever it is but the UI has completely changed and it's not like the pics on the site... It's just completely black... And the worse part is that i can't even access my settings menu on the phone... So now i am blocked from doing anything... i cant even start usb debugging and take off the root....
please tell me some roms for the phone or any other way this can be undone...
Oh and btw i also tried installing some roms from http://get.cm/?device=mango because i thought cyanogen is pretty famous...
But none of them gets installed... and i even tried placing them as updates but no luck :crying::crying:
please help... thank you so much

Your phone got almost bricked,No it didnt, First thing before installing a custom ROM clear your system,data,cache partition..did you do that?
ok so you have CWM installed..follow this exactly
Start CWM by pressing vol down when your phone starts up,Select Mount USB Storage under mounts and storage,connect phone to pc,transfer ROM zip file to sdcard then
format /system ,/data,/cache ,now select install zip from sdcard and select your ROM zip file from sdcard
Reboot System..
You should be clear now..
Hope i helped..
Regards..
PS :Certain CM ROMS can be highly unstable so i recommend checking out the bugs and everything before you flash a CM rom..otherwise ICS is always smooth and stable..and have got a lot a lot of mdpi roms on xda..thanks to devs..
EDIT: if u r on a stock kernel,then unlock your bootloader by following steps at unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com then flash a custom kernel that supports JB..look over at the index thread created by predator at the dev section..
then follow my steps above..
DO NOT FLASH CUSTOM JB ROM ON STOCK ICS KERNEL.IT WONT WORK.

u forgot to tell it must be a stock ICS rom (as he has stock kernel) otherwise he may flash cm10.2 on it and i would be messed up 2nd time
