If I do this, it just clears all data from phone and after I reboot I will still be on cm9 but with no apps and no accounts synced? Is this right?

One more thing...
If I want to go back to complete stock do I just simply Odin back to this... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1506330 ?
If I'm coming from cm9 ICS, is it OK to go straight back to stock gb. Also will this bring me back to stock recovery?

Hey i flashed i9000 2.3 bootloaders to fix the recovery and weird screen issue but now i wanna go back... Does anyone know of a firmware that includes the vibrant bootloaders?
thanks

Think stock 2.2 updates the secondary bootloader...pretty sure the sbl.bin or whatever is in the 2.2 odin images. Guess this depends on which ROM you're going to be using?
No idea on the other.

It doesn't brick your phone, just the only thing that can brick it in the event of a bad flash.
Thanks for the info i dont think ill flash them anyway just in case

were you able to go back to stock?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
i can go back to stock firmware without reflashing bootloaders and im preaty sure any rom will work with the i9k bootloaders i just wanted the vibrant ones to try out an aosp rom on the i9k forum but it says you can only get into download mode with 3 buttons so thats why i wanted to change bootloaders
in short i have not gone back to stock bootloaders
Edit: could somone link me to that thread from a while back that fixed hardware locked vibrants?
Here you go...
Both Froyo and Gingerbread Bootloaders for Vibrant... GB Bootloaders based on I9000 but show Vibrant Splash Screen...

Is it important to go to the stock ROM if i am thinking of Flashing another rom? And if so how do i get back to the stock ROM?
Its a good practice. Can save you a lot of headaches if you go back to each time. I do it. There's a guide somewhere here

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!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
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.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1654293
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.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
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)
My SGH-T999 is stuck at boot screen after i restarted it because it wasn't responding after opening up a music player called playnow. After researching, i reflashed my phone from stock back to root but no avail. I have also wiped the cache and reset to factory settings. Please help i've tried everything except throwing it...
What "stock" did yoy flash? I suggest you flash back to to stock FIRMWARE. Download it from sammobile.com
There must be something wrong with the kernel

Anything you find here is for I9300 model. You should ask in the correct forum for your phone to avoid any confusion which may further worsen your phone condition.

Full stock? Unrooted and so on? I recommend go back with something like NottachTrix. Just download it and flash.
Take care: if you try going back to stock and you have unlocked booloader you can get bricked.
Is it safe to restore the stock rom from the nandroid backup wich i made before flashing with the custom rom??

Hi! I am trying to do the same, but I don't have that backup. I only have the original att sbf that I downloaded from other posts.
My atrix is unlock so I cannot longer do that?
I did my back up with titanium back up tool, but I guest that is not going to be useful.
So my current options are to stay with this room or change to another one?
Thank you!
