Alright. I'll cut to the chase. If you are on a Stock ICS Canadian ROM (Wind, Telus, Mobilicity,etc) and you have a custom recovery, then you can help out.
Prerequisites:
- Unlocked / S-Off device
- COMPLETE Stock Canadian ROM (not debloated or anything)
- Must be on latest ICS OTA for your phone
- It can be rooted, but I'd prefer it not to be
- Have a custom recovery installed
I need the system.img and boot.img when you make a nandroid so I can deodex them and upload them. Proper credits will be giving.
So you need to boot into recovery, make a nandroid backup, turn your phone on and connect the USB cable to the computer. Locate where the backups are made and copy system and boot. They may not have the .img extension, which is perfectly fine. Compress the 2 files with Winrar or 7zip. I can care less whatever you choose. Upload them to a GOOD site. Don't use hotfile or whatever. Use D-h.st. Then I'll take it from there.
If you are willing to help, post here with carrier you have and do what I asked. Thanks!
Deodex the zips I made, they were made from nandroid backups, just never deodexed.

I only found stock versions. (OTAs/Full stock). I don't see any nandroids on Canadian ICS.
There's a telus ICS nandroid I made myself in the first two download buttons, the three lower ones are flashable zips made from those very nandroids, which I believe you can use as well, I'll pm you the link to a mobilicity nandroid if you want, someone else will have to give you a wind backup.

For those who just wanna be on pure stock with no mods. I can make it.as. a pure stock odexed so those who don't have stock ROMs to revert to for warranty purposes, they can flash it and flash a stock recovery and basically fool their carrier into thinking that theyre on stock

So, the member neil_swann80 is in trouble because Flashtool seems to be rogue on him, so he asked for a Nandroid backup of a stock ROM. If I recall correctly he even offered monetary incentive: if this works, for him, I would rather have it go to XDA.
http://www.megaupload.com/?f=AIYYLQAP
That's the back-up: as usual in my uploads, it's a .7z file divided in parts (2 in this case): just extract the first one and the rest will ensue. I like to keep the download count so I would kindly ask not to mirror it.
It's a completely untouched CWM backup of the latest stock ROM for the R800i (it even has the clock set on 1980 or something). For him, and for everyone else: if you want to use this, extract the files and copy the resulting folder to the /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup directory of your Xperia Play. Run CWM, go to Backup and Restore-Restore and select the folder (by default called NeilSwann).
I don't provide any kernel as you can use DoomLord's, which is compatible with stock ROMs and is orders of magnitude more functional than the stock one.

2nd ridder's request, as i need it too :3
What is the best way to make a full backup/image of my Photon including the operating system? I currently use Titanium to back up all files and apps but I need to back up the OS too.
Does the ROM Manager from the Android Market work on the Photon?
NANDroid is best way.
IF you aren't unlocked, use the CWM bootstrap recovery.
If you are unlocked, use the Clockword Mod Recovery to NANDroid.
Restore NANDroid via the method you used to create it.
ROM Manager currently does not support the Photon. There are tweaks to make it work with the photon, I believe, but those require an unlocked device and some complicated tweaks.

What files do you need?
I need the folder that is in the CWM folder that contains all the other folders for the complete nandroid.
Sent from my MB855 using XDA
For a full backup it's takes about 20mins to do. It will be about a 500MB ultra compressed zip and about 2GB extracted so I'll need some time. Also, if you intend to restore from it don't be surprised if you MAC addresses get hosed.
What release do you need? 198_6 or 198_7?
I need 198_6. I understand it would take some time and be a pain in the but so I understand if you don't wanna do it, but it would really help me out. Would I need to worry about losing my Mac address if I restore from my nandroid once I get what I need from yours?

please elaborate ?
i'm a bit confussed
Where is the file?
im guessing what he means is that when you flash this via odin it will give you root perms UNTIL you reboot then you will no longer have root kinda like the temp root the evo3d started with
Hi,
I think what Mashi meant to say and didn't explain too well is that this is a pre-rooted /system image, in the form of system.img.ext4 inside of a pda.tar to be flashed via odin.
Both ways result in a permanently rooted system partition, just this way flashes it directly, leaving the stock kernel intact, whereas my method flashes a modified kernel which then roots the /system partition via a script.
Apparently the download site he uploaded it to doesn't allow non-premium users to download files that large.

+1. I decided i don't want to mess with flashing roms and kernels with this phone, i just want root so i can block adds and restore my titanium backups from old phone.
Well... a friend got one and wants root as well, and my first thing I told him, pull system, root it, (add su to /system/bin and superuser.apk to /system/app) then flash it back with Odin.
Can anyone tell me that would not work? It sounds like that is what this is...

Good morning!
These are Odin-flashable .tars of the stock Bell system, boot, recovery, and radios and can be used to revert to stock for he upcoming OTA update of Ice Cream Sandwich. I've been using DAGr8's ICS alpha 2 for a while now and have found that some Canadian-specific apps will not install, and although his ROM is excellent, I'd like to try the stock Bell ICS when it comes out.
Files Available
NB: All files are zipped to save space. Please extract the .tar before flashing via Odin.
pda-odin-bell-stock.zip - This .tar contains stock system.img.ext4, stock recovery.img, and stock boot.img and can be used to mostly restore your Note to stock by flashing it via Odin's pda option. However, flashing this .tar via Odin will increase your flash counter so if you're interested in resetting the counter, check out the next file.
pda-odin-bell-stock-system-boot.zip - This .tar contains the stock system.img.ext4 and stock boot.img and can be used to assist in resetting your flash counter using braway's method. Flash it via Odin's pda option. The recovery.img has been removed to preserve CWM if you've already flashed it to your phone. Once your flash counter has been reset, you can then return recovery to stock via this method using just the recovery.img file in the archive here.
phone-odin-bell-stock-radio.zip - This .tar contains the stock Bell modem/radio and is flashed via Odin's phone option. Not working correctly. Working on fix. My apologies.
Bell-Modem-CWM.zip - This .zip is made by pterry30 from the modem/radio files in my .tar and works perfectly. Just flash via Clockworkmod recovery. I'll keep working on a way to get the Odin .tar to work though.
SkyDrive Folder containing all Bell Files - All above Bell files can now be found in this SkyDrive folder. Provider changed since my public DropBox links keep being suspended to due to excessive bandwidth traffic.
The stock Bell kernel can be obtained from this thread thanks to Da_G. Flash via Odin's pda option.
Disclaimer
I am in no way responsible for any damages caused to your Note by anything you flashed. These files are provided as is to help Bell Note owners return to stock after whatever they've done to their phones.
History
These stock files were pulled from two different Bell Notes so we could get everything we were looking for unmodified. marshals pulled the system.img.ext4, boot.img, and radio files from his Note after replacing recovery with CWM. I pulled the recovery.img and flash counter data from my Note after flashing a rooted AT&T kernel. The files were then prepared in an Ubuntu Virualbox into .tar, then checked in Odin for errors by loading them into the program. No errors were reported. These files have not yet been flashed to a Note as I'm still playing with DAGr8's ICS alpha 2 and only have the one device.
Special Thanks
marshals for pulling the system.img.ext4, boot.img, and radios from his Note.
braway for taking my constant questions and providing much needed guidance in my first developer-ish project as well as for the flash counter reset.
Da_G for the stock Bell kernel, instructions on using Odin, and indirectly showing me how to use the Linux terminal.
pterry30 for packaging the stock modem/radio files into a CWM-flashable .zip.
Please post your experiences with these stock Bell files below and if you have any questions, I'll do my best to help. Enjoy!!

I have a stock rom that is rooted, I am working on removing the root to make a totally stock odin flash, Braway is helping me out with that.
Just PM me a link to these files and I'll see what I can do about making them Odin-flashable. Would love to be able to make it easier for people to revert back to stock if they want. Also, if you need any help with the stock system.img, don't hesitate to ask.
This helps a lot thanks!

I do not know how more people have not said thanks to this!! This is amazing, thank you so much for your contributions. God bless.
Just wondering if the stock Bell radios above are the same ones as in your original thread? I carrier unlocked my phone after I rooted it. Don't know if that might have had any bearing on why I couldn't get the radios to flash with Odin. Everything else flashed back to stock and has been working fine - great work as I said before! And for all I know, I may still have the stock radios already on my Note. I can't say whether anything that I may have flashed in rooting/unrooting it would have replaced them and I'm not sure how to check. Anyone know?
Looking forward to OTA ICS soon, thanks again!
Will we need a 0 flash count,and stock recovery for the OTA update?

I understand that a thread like this just needs to be done, but I'm having trouble understanding why people would do this?
I mean, if you're switching back then you're obviously rooted and you probably like to use custom roms, why not wait till someone comes out with a solid, stable, better custom version of ics based on the official release?
Unless you're trying to resell or don't trust the rom's security integrity, why not wait?

I did it as a safety net for myself in case I messed something up. Additionally, the ROMs available currently are all based off AT&T software, and I wanted the option to return to Bell stock to get ICS OTA when it is released. I've been using DAGr8's ICS alpha II on my Note for a while now, but today I returned to stock because I was having too many FC's, too much lag, and problems downloading some Canadian specific apps. His ROM was excellent, but based off leaked AT&T code.
I guess I did this for my own benefit and for those who wish to return to stock at any given time. If you don't want or need it, you don't have to use it, but some people are very appreciative to have these files and I am happy to have helped them.

You can hook your phone to your computer and search your SD card or find the file path by going through twrp. I have done this before, it's just simply a case of finding your backup...let me know if you still need help
