Alright. So i decided to get jellybean resurrection on my tel.
Everything went good etc but when i try to start up it starts up does everything.
Then you get the ressurection remix logo and it stays there..
When i used search i read flash it back with odin? etc
I read it but still i have no clue on what to do.
Yes you have to use Odin to flash a stock firmware. You can get stock firmware for your phone (providing it is the i9100) from sammobile.com.

Could you explain the steps i have to follow?
My friend which has his S2 rooted explained it to me trough whatsapp but he must've forgotten a step since it failed.
Trying to find the stock rom now.
Use this guide. It explains how to use Odin.

I'm stupid, I forgot to add the link!
By the way, to set up Odin, download Kies for the drivers, but kill off Kies processes in the Task Manager and make sure you run Odin with Administrator Rights.

Wipe data/cache in recovery.
Wipe dalvik cache.
Then flash the Resurrection Remix zip again.
(RR's previous build was ICS, moving to JB, you need to wipe cache and data).
If you need your data and other settings etc you need to reflash ICS RR, backup, then flash JB RR.

Do you know how to use odin? I think you might have to flash to stock again.

You gotta read instructions. No where in the instructions did it say wipe system. Now you need to read up on how to use odin to install a stock ROM. Look for the stock rom in the developmemt thread.

Np, Glad it worked out. :
This is slightly off topic, but I desperately need help.
I put ICS on my Dads Samsung Galaxy a few days ago, and left him to it after that. He decided he didn't like it and without asking me about it, decided to restore it back to GB through CWM recovery. He's now stuck on the boot screen every time he starts his phone.
I'd really appreciate some help here guys.
Thanks in advance.

Wipe data/cache from the recovery menu and then try a restore.
if doesnt work probably there are some corrupt files in the backup so wipe and then flash the rom you(your dad ) want.

Will do!
Also, the reason for him wishing to restore was something to do with the fact his phone calls weren't working. He said he posted on here through this account and got no reply so decided to try and restore it.
He can make and answer calls, but he can't hear or be heard by the other person.
Any idea?

OP, I thought you said your dad's phone is a Galaxy S, not an S2? Well this is a link to S2 firmwares.
Edit: went back and read... Yup, you said he is stuck on the i9000 screen. You are better off asking for i9000 help in the i9000 forums...else people will assume you are talking about an i9100, and tell you to do things for the i9100, like above.

Hi,
I'm currently on a CyanogenMod rom. I need to flash back to a stock ICS if i want to flash an AOKP or other rom or just install over CyanogenMod ?
Download a stock ICS ROM off sammobile.com, put your phone in download mode and flash via Odin. If you want another custom ROM, download the .zip file, put on SD Card, do all wipes in CWM and flash.
Chris.

I'm on custom ics now and wanna flash the AOKP rom.
And do i need to do all wipes before and after flashing any rom ?
Your safer to. Prevents any force closures or other app problems. Just do cache partition wipe, data wipe/factory reset, dalvik cache wipe and battery stats wipe. Then flash ROM, and then re-wipe cache partitions and run fix permissions. That should prevent any problems. Also, none of your data will be wiped off your SD card. Also, make sure you back up your EFS folder to protect your IMEI, there is a developer on here that makes the Advanced EFS back up application. Use it as a precaution!

Check your IMEI by dialling *#06# and make sure it is the same as the one on the box of your phone. If it is, back it up immediately if you haven't done so already with the application I mentioned in my previous post. You'll thank me later when you need it and have it backed up!

Earlier today tried flashing an original firmware on my Galaxy S2 using this file GT-I9100_XEU_I9100XWLP7_I9100XXLPS_I9100XEULP5.tar. Everything passed through Odin but seems my device doesn't want to boot flashing this. I also installed the Litening_Rom_v6-1.tar.md5 after that and again didn't want to boot through Odin.
I did manage to get into CWM and restore a nandroid backup and it boots fine now.
I am selling my S2 tomorrow and wanted to put it back to stock. Is there any way through CWM to flash a stock rom and unroot as seems odin is causing problems. If the CWM way isn't possible can anyone point me in the right direction for an original rom that will work.
Any help appreciated.
By the way i am on an unbranded S2 form Uk.
When you were flashing in Odin did you flash the kernel, recovery and the system? Or just the system?

Just flashed the file above with the pda button. (Only gave me the .tar file)
It is caused by not making a wipe cache and data before flash. Before selling, format also /system. First of all reset counter with Triangle Away if not yet

Will this mthod take me back to stock after I have done it?
Use the Odin instructions from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544487
Remember to select the PDA option, not other options on Odin. That should work without needing to format system, cache and dalvik cache. If it really doesn't work report here. And try to flash other Roms, like the NEE 4.0.4 (last one released).

With those steps you have an empty phone. If you flash a stock ROM you get your phone like when you bought it

Ok, so I've rooted 2 phones so far with no problem. But when I did it to my friend, the phone won't lauch the rom any more (tried with slimbean).
I used this method before I installed slimbean: http://scientimystic.wordpress.com/...i9100-having-android-4-1-2-official-firmware/
After installing it, it wouldn't load. So I reinstalled my backup that I did after I rooted, and nothing, the phone is just stuck on the galaxy s2 screen and a yellow exclamation triangle below.
I can boot into cwm or download mode, but I can't transfer files on my phone I think.
Please help, if it was my phone I wouldn't be so desperate but I really don't want to screw up my friends phone.
If you can boot into cwm and download mode it aint bricked.
All it is....is a borked OS......I'm guessing that if you were on JB before, that when you backed up, you didn't include the preload partition. If your chosen custom rom zip is still on your phone, boot into cwm and flash it again. Thiss time though, before you reboot the phone post flash, wipe cache, dalvic and data.....then reboot.

Hey, ok then well I thought bricked meant you can't load the rom.
My backup actually worked now so all is ok, but I can't install any custom rom - every one of them just loops indefinitely at the loading once I flash it, and after that it won't do anything until i revert my backup.
