What stated out trying to update official ICS frome Kies turns into a horrible decision once I decided to follow a stupid instructions and manually update it by using Odin . It stuck onto the start screen .
However , I followed the soft-brick save guide and saved the phone
Then, I rooted my phone and put in an ICS ROM but I realise the lockscreen is missing . I also dislike using a bloated custom ROM
Soon I realise I was able to flash the original ICS Software and followed a guide flashing I9100XKPA . I followed every instructions but still has no lockscreen and the homescreen button is not working anymore. (It works when i hold down into download mode) :crying:
I panic and tried to flash back the original gingerbread but it still stuck on ICS . I have no idea what to do . PLease HELP

Ignore the kernel advice. The /efs/imei/keystr file being missing is the problem, and yes, you have to be rooted to do the fix.

There's a method that's linked in the roll up sticky in the General section specifically for ICS that doesn't involve flashing anything.

This is something you only do once, using root explorer to replace stuff in framework is nis not the way to go about. if you don't have backup -Odin-reinstall ROM.
yeh, It is what we call experience.

Sorry i UP and old post, i have basically the same problem, i replace the stock Framework with another framework-res.apk of a diferent rom
And i cant/dont want to Odin or CWM another rom, because i havent backed up alot of apps that i cant remember the name, but i need it
So i think, if someone can make an .zip and i flash it via CWM that only restores Stock Framework of Oficiall ICS???
If you can help me, alot grateful
Firmware details?
Might be someone with a backup after flashing one of the ics themes.

Hi.

If ur loking for stable HC3.2 try Overcome 10.1 Series. Most stable for 3G GTab but removes too much from TouchWiz.
I would personally recommend GALAXY TASK 14 or Clean ROM 2.0 but only if u have WiFi only GTab.

but why there is no updates?
If you mean updates for android os,Ice cream sandwich and jelly bean have already been released(ICS without camera and JB without anything right now...).
I recommend only ICS CM nightly if you ever want to flash...
I rely on the tab to take pics a lot, so I cant afford to lose the camera. Clean ROM's developer seems to have moved on to another device, so I think I'm gonna go with Task. Thanks!
Ps: This may sound dumb, but how do you update CWM, and how to install the b00sted's themes here ? I downloaded it but have no idea how. Does it run on stock launcher?

In order to install cwm touch, you have to put it in a .tar file and use odin. Or make a cwm flashable zip.

There is no stock UCKK6 (2.3.6) but you can download and flash a Stock plus root version of UCKK6. See Entropy512's thread which is a sticky in the development forum.
...Or you can flash fully stock UCKH7 (2.3.4). See the link in my signature for the return to the store guide.

I will add this if you flashed UCLE5 via kies or any other method to get your ICS besides AJ's thread you have an unsafe kernel and possible eMMC SUPERBRICK BUG make sure you DON'T wipe data/factory reset before you flash this package do it after you flashed a safe GB kernel... If it were me knowing KK6 2.3.6 has battery drain issues I would flash KH7 2.3.4..... Just use creeys thread to get the files here is the link... GL

i flashed I777UCKH7-REV02-home-low-CL503881.tar
that i had got from sammobile i didn't see the other post till now and i also upgraded to ics from kies i can get into download mode but when i try recovery i held power and volume rockers and it's suppose to flicker once it does not do this it just stays there
You can upgrade to the stock 2.3.6 by downloading the stock 2.3.4 firmware from the download repository here in our forums, then after you are booted into the operating system, go to settings, scroll all the way to the bottom to software update, and it will download and install 2.3.6. I wouldn't suggest it , just because I don't like it or think it runs well, but try it out. Good luck, happy flashing.

Why would they not take it back?? You never flashed any custom ROMS from here right? All you did was flash the AT&T ICS update via kies and it gave you problems right?

1. What is the status of the phone now? (can it boot recovery or go in to download mode)
Hi, i have an S3 and i want to install Jelly Bean.
At the moment i have my device rooted using: Odin3-v3.04_Galaxys3ii.com with CF-Root-SGS3-v6.4
Now to the question: How do i proceed correctly to update to jelly bean? And if possible, get root-access as well? But if that is too complicated i would happily settle with stock JB.
I tried to update OTA but got this error (roughly translated from Swedish): "Access to the software update service is provided to the user in the order they request it. try again later."
Then i tried through Samsung KIES. It finds an update but the program just freezes when i try to install it, not affecting the phone.
Thanks for all answers!

they flash in recovery, all you need is root and custom recovery, if you have those you are good to go, I recommend a wipe, but you could try without, if you find that you have problems with f/c 's then go back to recovery and do a factory reset

Just flash it with CWM, it is a "stock Rom".You should really check out flashing guides in "Stickies", it'll tell u everything u need to know about flashing roms, kernels, mods & so on.

You don't really need a good computer to flash back to stock, just a USB cable. The easiest way is to flash back to stock JFD 2.1 with Odin and then root your phone with update.zip B, reboot to recovery and reinstall packages twice then flash the ROM (twice also if going to JB 4.2). Here is a link for both flashing to stock and rooting with update.zip B http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=849028 . If you decide to stay on 2.2 you will have to use the modified 3e recovery zip, I have never done this so can't really explain how to do it, here is the link though http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833423.

Try update.zip A from the first link I provided, it should root your phone. Then you can use the 3e method. I've never had to do this myself so sorry I don't have a straight answer for you.

Yes I rooted my phone with Update.zip B, it doesn't actually root but it gives you CWM and you can flash a custom ROM, they all come pre rooted. You should really flash back to stock if possible, it's very easy from stock 2.1. I'll do some research and see what I can come up with but stock 2.2 has a bunch of issues with rooting and installing CWM, this is why everyone recommends flashing to stock 2.1 (JFD)
Edit - it appears superoneclick 2.3.1 works for some people on stock Froyo (2.2). Here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1146645 If you get it rooted on stock 2.2 you will still have to do the 3e recovery step FYI

Thanks for the reply. Sad news. I used Kies Mini to update and everything went fine until the reboot. well it didnt reboot, my phone is officially bricked. I bought a JIG to see if it would help wake it in Download but it does not. I have read that you can open the phone and do some soldering to get the phone back but it seems like too much for this phone. If you have any suggestions that would be fantastic.. Thanks again for your reply.
