Hi guys, I'm using an unlocked bell note on Telus.
My phone is rooted and currently have an ics rom running on it. So my question is to get the official ics update, do I have to restore my phone to stock bell or stock Telus?

Prob when the update comes you will have to go to stock gb or wait until the ics is uploaded by some one then odin it or flash it.

Sounds good thanks!
I messed up my stock kernel by flashing the wrong think, so that's a relief to just use Odin.

If I wanted to go back to 2.3.3 where can I find those files. Or can i just flash the ruu for 2.3.3?

Depends, did you take the OTA or did you install a custom rom to get to 2.3.4. If you took the OTA and you weren't rooted before I don't know if you can go back. The HTC unlocker method of rooting will not let you install a kernel so I don't believe you will be able to flash a 2.3.3 rom since it will require an compatible kernel.
If your on 2.3.4 taking the ota then there is no way to go back to 2.3.3

Then u should be good to go. Just remember when you take the ruu method you will loose everything

Total noob here, but I think you need to flash a t mobile stock rom, have a look in here

Downloaded a stock firmware and kernel and flashed using odin.
However my phone will not connect with kies to update to latest firmware and won't update via phone.
Any ideas.

Hey guys, I installed the new venom Rom coming from the latest ics leak, I love everything about this Rom but I noticed that my baseband reverted back to the gb versions, I was never able to get 4g in my area on these old versions. I tried restoring back to the ics Rom and still have the old baseband. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
**UPDATE**
I got everything updated with a flash of an ICS RUU. I Relocked bootloader, flashed file, New Basebands and Hboot.

Uh.... what? No ROM out there does this. It would be highly irresponsible and dangerous to include radio updates in a ROM, and that ROM definitely doesn't have a radio update in the zip

Hmm.. It has me stumped. I thought it was kinda odd that even after restoring my ICS backup that had the new basebands it still restored with the old basebands.

The basebands aren't part of the rom nor are they stored when you do a nandroid backup of a rom. If you reverted them, you didn't do it from installing a new rom.
Any chance you s-off'd the phone lately?

Are you confusing the build number with the baseband numbers?
It is impossible to flash a radio in recovery so there is no was switching roms did this

My phone is still S-on for now, and I'm looking at the basebands (0.95.00.1118R, 0.95.00.1223R) I think ill try to flash the ICS RUU again and see what happens.

So I am running SuperChargedHatka rom and they just updated to the new ota. Ok my question is are we better off flashing back to stock. Relocking. Updating. Then unlocking again? Are there things in the update we can't get with custom roms?

Anyone? Is it more beneficial to go back to stock everything and accept the update then unlock again and install a custom ROM? Or is there no real benefit.

If you relock, stock, update then unlock and flash a rooted Rom, make sure it has the update in it or you will possibly flash the old rom files over the new..

You can't get the new radios or hboot just by flashing the ROM. So if you want them then you have to lock, run ruu, update, and unlock again. Kind of a pain but just the way it is right now. If you have the unlock bin you originally got from HTC it does make it a little easier.

Alright cool. That's what I was wondering. Too bad flashgui won't flash radios too

Check out my guide for doing just that its in my sig
I have a rooted GS3 (stock rom). My wife and kids all have unrooted phones and they are getting the update right now. I checked for an update and it never finds it so do I need to unroot to get the OTA update?

You could try unrooting, but most of the time Kies does not recognise the device.
1)If you want to get the update the best way is to flash a stock 4.1.2 of your country and then update via kies.
OR
2)Just find the latest 4.1.2 (the update) for your country and flash it

This is the Galaxy S3 general discussion section isn't it? What section should I be in?
