Unroot for repairs?

Hi,
I currently want to root and install CM7 on a Galaxy Ace... However, this Ace is just recently bought and still under warranty. Is there a way to install back the stock rom + unroot?
edit: I see that there's a way to unroot, but what about the stock rom? Do I do a nandroid backup? What about custom recovery back to the stock recoveries?
I haven't actually flashed any phones back yet.. so I don't know.. and this is not for me either.
Thanks
yes odin

[Q] Att Galaxy note

Hello
I was running liquid smooth jellybean rom on my att i717 Galaxy note. so i tried to go back to stock. i flashed ics stock rom using odin, the phone rebooted but won't go pass the att log, it just reboots and sticks at the log. it says 5 counts when i go back into odin mode. Am i doomed or is there hope and if so, what can i do?
Flash it again but wait a bit. Samsung has a lot of bloat it loads up

[Q] How do I get stock 4.1.2 back on my S3 using OSX?

HI all!
I am at a loss here. I have searched and searched for a solution to my problem but to no avail!
Basically I have flashed CM10 on my S3 and also have Clockwork Mod recovery, I would like to go back to the stock rom with touchwiz ui on top. I have found guides online on how to flash stock roms using odin but I have a Mac and do not have access to a PC. I really need some guidance with this as cm10 is annoying me at this point and I would just prefer to go back to stock/out of the box rom. P.S. I did not back up my phone when flashing cm10.
Many thanks,
Dave

Install mobile Odin, put the Rom on an sd card. Then flash with mobile Odin.

Im in quite the pickle.

So basically I updated my galaxy s2 t989 to jellybean so I would get the upgraded radio so I could install custom roms. After upgrading through Samsung kies I tried again and got stuck in a collaterals recovery boot loop. I restored to a previous backup before I upgraded but the problem is I am back on 4.0.4 but It kept the 4.1.2 radio. So now kies says my firmware is not compatible to upgrade. Is this common or am I totally screwed?

Although I do not personally own an S2 the common method is finding a radio version at 4.0.4 and flashing that. Finding it will be the difficult part. Ask around and see if one of your buddies (XDA is your buddy ) has a copy that they can lend you.

So would I just flash it through Odin?

Also do you know if that is why my phone isn't getting recognized by Kies?

As I said. I don't own any Samsung devices so I can't help you there. Basic andoiud help is finding a raido and flashing it through a recovery, CWM or otherwise.
