Need stock rom zip - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi I hope someone can help me, I've been looking for stock 3e recovery in zip format and I can't find it anywhere. Any help will be much appreciated

I'd say the best thing to do would be to download a stock ROM from sammobile.com or CheckFUS for PC. This will wipe your phone completely, I know you want a flashable stock recovery, I've never seen one. The stock ROM will remove what I assume you have is CWM.

You have three options:
1. Flash any ICS 4.0.4 firmware with stock recovery here:wanamlite.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?fid=11
Don't flash 4.0.3 firmwares, those have CWM recovery.
2. Flash back your stock kernel, via mobile Odin on your phone
3. Flash stock firmware via Odin

Where can I get a cwm flasherble XXWLPG rom WITH OUT Jkay?

Hi all,
I don't have time at the moment to flash a stock rom with Odin at the moment, so i was wondering if anyone knows where I can get a XXWLPG rom without Jkay?
I want to try out this s3 lock screen
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1742397
But I have to have either a LPG or LPM rom without Jkay to use it.
Does anyone know where I can get a cwm flasherble one from?
Thanks in advance
Cheers

Why don't you use Mobile Odin app (=> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1347899) to flash the stock ROM as tar file?
You only need to be rooted, then install Mobile Odin app and flash the stock ROM ... on device flashing.
If you are already on ICS, should work fine.
Have done this from stock XWLPD ROM to XWLPG and XWLPM.
I can also confirm that mobile odin is easy to use and works well, I've never had a problem with it. Perfect for flashing official ROMs in tar format.

Ok thanks heaps
I will do that.
I didn't want to use it before, as I was not sure how safe it was, but I will give it a try. Thanks

[flashing][E3 recovery] Can you flash a siyah kernel with stock recovery mod?

The question is simple. It is already written above but I cam say it again. So the question is can you flash a siyah kernel(or any other custom kernel) with stock e3 recovery? I'm only asking it because we are on the road and there is no way I could go to a computer. Thanks in advance and sorry my bad english,

Definitively not. But, if you are on the road the solution is very simple:
Buy odin mobile pro, download Siyah Odin version and flash with it.

There is easier
Download cwm image from clockworkmod site (or link in my signature / method 1) and put it in your external sd card. Apply update from recovery and you get a temporary cwm to flash all that you need

When you enter the stock recovery, apply this update from the sdcard.
http://download2.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-4.0.1.5-galaxys2.zip
It won't permanently replace the stock recovery but temporarily, so you can replace the kernel with Siyah through CWM.

Thank you! I downloaded mobile odin and flashed with it. Thank tou!

SII I9100 rooted OTA update

Hey Galaxy SII people, I need some help with a friend's SII.
I'm quite knowledgeable with custom ROMs and recoveries, but I have no idea what to do with a stock phone.
The phone is rooted and not getting the OTA to ICS. I want to get the OTA, losing root not necessarily a problem.
Can someone give me a hand with this? I have no idea what I need to do.
The phone also has the stock recovery.
I apologize if this has been asked before, but I couldn't find a conclusive, comprehensive answer.
Go to samfirmware and download the update firmware and install it via odin.
All the best.

Flash stock ROM from http://samfirmware.com/ via Odin. Search for galaxy S2 ROMs, just make sure you don't download the dangerous ROMs (the ones with a warning triangle next to them).

Thanks for the quick reply.
I'm downloading a zip now. I flash this with Odin/Heimdall? I thought I needed a .tar and a bunch of other files to flash with Odin.
This won't keep root, right? Is there any way I could get root back after flashing?
Also, will this wipe /data?
Oh, and I have the option to download a ROM for a specific carrier. Does that mean I can't use another carrier?
Edit: While I'm at it, is the stock recovery needed for anything stock ROM related?
Yes download will be in the form of a zip file, once downloading is complete you can extract the tar. file and place in the PDA section of odin. This will not wipe your device, well never has done for me. Yes you will loose root as you have a completely new rom with stock kernel. See the guide for rooting your chosen firmware. As for the carrier i always use the unbranded /open version as this has less bloat ware. All the best.

Make sure you don't have repartition button ticked or play with the pit file if you don't 100% know what you're doing either

Upgrade GB

Can someone tell me the descriptions of upgrading samsung s2 2.3.4 jokh8 to ICS
Sent from my GT-I9100G using xda premium
1. make a back up of your current firmware
2. In recovery, do a wipe of the cache then go to advanced and wipe daavik cache.
3. Using odin flash the ics firmware you like.
this tutorial should help .

Will it erase all data?
Sent from my GT-I9100G using xda premium
You already made 2 threads about rooting.
So since you "need" to be on ics,you open up another thread about gb-ics.
Whats next,a thread about how to use odin,or a thread about cwm.Or how about a thread for flashing kernel,or a thread about a rom.Then a thread about "help phone bricked".
Do us all a favour and read you lazy git.

1. Root your phone by flashing a rooted kernel containing CWM recovery (e.g. SpeedMod for GB ROMs), if not already done.
2. Make a nandroid backup of your current GB system in CWM recovery. (So you can restore it if flashing does not work or you don't like the new ICS ROM and you want to go back to GB.)
3. Have a look here for the latest ICS stock ROMs => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544487.
There is also a description in the first post how to flash the new stock ROM with Odin.
I recommend to flash a pre-rooted ICS stock ROM from here => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1608071.
Download the ROM, extract the zip file, put the tar/md5 file into PDA section of Odin and flash it to your phone. (Be sure that no Kies process is running on your PC while flashing.)
4. Once you are on ICS and rooted, you can install TriangleAway (=> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494114&highlight=triangleaway) app to reset the flash counter if needed.
5. Be happy and enjoy the new ICS ROM.
Good luck !

[Q]Can't get into stock recovery after flashing stock 3.1 GT-P7500

It all started yesterday when I was using my GT-P7500 (Rooted and Running Slimbean 4.1.2 ROM), I left it alone and I got some rest. After a few minutes it powered off unexpectedly. The following day I tried to flash the stock 3.1 using Odin3 v1.85, Odin said it passed, I looked at my tablet it was doing something it was supposed to do, it then went to the Samsung Logo (Not the Boot Animation) after that it got stuck in a bootloop, I tried going to stock recovery but it was no use, I couldn't get there. I can attachments if you can't understand what I am saying.
It now takes forever to flash stock rom.
My friend said to use another version of Odin3 so I used v3.04, But now it takes forever to flash, CAny help will be gladly appreciated.
Maybe try to flash a custom recovery and then flash another custom ROM, or flash stock ics ROM

I'll try that later, but my tab is taking forever to flash the stock rom, What will happen if I remove it?
Please help!!!!
Odin3 said that it was a failure, now my tab says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
I selected emergency firmware recovery but my device doesn't show up. What should I do? Should I just turn it off ,charge it and try to use Odin3 again?:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
You just want your tab to boot right? If its not stock does it matter? If not, flash cwm recovery, make a full wipe then flash a custom ROM.

I flashed CWM and it was a success, now I tried going to CWM Recovery, but with no avail. It just says
Code:
# MANUAL MODE #
-- Updating Application...
Then after that, it will just say the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Logo.
If I flash the Stock ICS Rom, will this resolve my problem?
You can try, but I'm not really sure though. I think you need experts help.
