1. I'll advise you to flash latest 4.0.3 UHLPS/XWLPG etc. If you don't know why read here: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1756242
2. To flash, follow these steps:
- boot to CWM recovery
- wipe data/factory reset
- reboot your phone to download mode
- flash firmware via Odin (if you don't know how to flash via Odin, please read tutorials. There are many online)
Done

Hi,
I updated my Galaxy SII to ICS (BVLPB) via Kies and I lost the previews root, now I tried to root it again with method from Chainfire but with no luck and my phone don't start anymore. I tried to put back the stock kernel from intratech but still with no luck.
I can still go to download mode or recovery mode, but this is the only thing I can do.
Now the question is: What can I do to fix my phone, can I fix it?
Thank you very much.
yes you can
go into download mode use fusdownloader to get a ICS stock rom for your galaxy
open odin 1.85 plug in phone select pda and add the downloaded rom (from fus) and then apply the update
this should fix your phone and restore it to ics
...
Did you try: Wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache ?
Try a wipe data/factory reset, if it still doesn't fix it, grab an official ICS version here and flash it with Odin.
Btw, be sure to read the instructions for flashing on that thread.
Thank you all... I manage to make him start again... I didn't try flashing the stock rom because I was afraid that I'll lose all my data.
Thank you all again.
I am pretty new at this. I have flashed the phone a couple of times after I updated to ICS through Kies (bad move)! Am currently using Gingerbread 2.3.6 but I now want to go back to a clean all new original stock firmware as my phone keeps randomly going into Kernel Panic Mode.
So, my Q is; Can I first go into recovery mode and wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, reboot phone and THEN flash with Odin? Meaning will the phone be capable of being flashed with Odin after all the wiping or will I need to save the firmware zip file on SD card and flash boot from there? I have the original stock firmware and I would like to have my phone as it was! I am NOT ROOTED nor do I want to be!
I just want my phone as it was! No more buggy bugs!
Please help! Have scoured the net, no answers to this particular question!

To have stock do this:
this is en example that help u flash with odin. (Proceed at your own risk)
Step by Step Instructions:
Download the Android Firmware
Extract the downloaded file ‘I9100XXKL1_I9100OXAKL1.rar’ to get these 3 files:
CODE_I9100XXKL1_CL783870_REV02_eng_mid_ship.tar.md5
GT-I9100-CSC-MULTI-OXAKL1.tar.md5
MODEM_I9100XXKL1_REV_02_CL1085162.tar.md5
Download Odin software
Disconnect your phone if it’s connected to PC. Switch Off your phone. Wait for vibration to confirm complete switch off.
Now, put the Galaxy S2 in Download Mode — press and hold these keys together: Volume_DOWN+Home+Power.
this is required to install the XXKG1 using Odin PC Software.
Open Odin (from step 3) — Odin3 v1.85.exe.
Connect your phone to PC now. You should get the message “Added! !”
under the Odin’s message box in the bottom left. If you don’t get this message,
than probably there is a problem with drivers. Make sure you’ve drivers installed.
Important! On Odin, Do NOT tick the ‘Re-Partition’ checkbox, but keep the ‘Auto Reboot’ & ‘F.
Reset Time’ checkboxes ticked. Do not touch any other checkbox or tab or anything, except as required in step 9 below.
Select these files in Odin at respective tabs (check out the screenshot given at the top for help):
Click the PDA Tab, and select CODE_I9100XXKL1_CL783870_REV02_eng_mid_ship.tar.md5 (from step 2.1)
Click the Phone Tab, and select MODEM_I9100XXKL1_REV_02_CL1085162.tar.md5 (from step 2.3)
Click the CSC Tab, and select GT-I9100-CSC-MULTI-OXAKL1.tar.md5 (from step 2.2)
Now, hit the START button to let the process begin.
When process at Odin finishes your phone will automatically reboot —
and you can unplug the cable then.
Plus, you’ll get a PASS (with green background) message in the left-most box at the very top of the Odin.
If it’s red and with FAIL written over it, the process flashing process wasn’t successful.

I ALREADY know that thanks very much, it would be nice to have a proper answer to the proper question I PROPERLY asked.
Yes.
You can factory reset via stock recovery no problems.
When you flash stock Samsung firmware via odin you will end up with a completely new and clean system as long as the factory reset has been done prior to flashing or if the firmware is a wipe version.
What you will still have is all the leftover directories and files on your internal sd card. You can simply delete all of these and factory reset.
There you go. Clean New stock firmware.

So just so I'm clear......
I can:
1. Go into recovery Mode on phone.
2. Wipe Data/Factory Reset
3. Wipe cache partition
4. Reboot phone
5. Flash stock firmware via Odin
......and then all is well?

"bushybox has gone for a shave so kindly leave the room."
I was using Cmiui ROM and i tried to take back up from ROM manager.
My phone re booted and after the initial S2 welcome note it turns black.
Nothing is helping. tried to take out battery..reboot.
Please HELP
You shouldn't have used Rom manager, it's incompatible. It was said a million times. But what's done is done...
Can you enter Download mode? If you can, just flash Stock rom.

-the first problem is that you don't take your time to read the warnings.
It's been said one million times that ROM manager is not fully compatible with our phone.
-Many people have ended up messed up while using ROM manager on their galaxy SII
Solution:
1. If you can still boot to CWM recovery, then:
-wipe cache partition
-wipe dalvik cache
-format /system (under mount and storage)
-flash ROM
-flash gapps
-fix permissions
-reboot phone
2. If you can only get to download mode and not recovery then:
(A)
-flash Siyah kernel (.tar) via Odin
-then reboot into recovery and follow solution 1.
Or
(B)
-Visit www.sammobile.com/firmware
-Download your desired stock firmware
-flash through Odin
Good luck

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
But have you done a wipe data/factory reset and cache from recovery?
If you flash a 4.0.4 samsung stock, beware of the 4.0.4 emmc brickbug. Google or xda search will get u tons of info about it.

I did all the above but stuck in booting logo for more than an hour.. Tried more than 5times but no luck.. What to do..?
Do you have modem file.? Flashing modem ll help.?
Planning to give t to my sister so only going back to stock..
For what you need the Modem.IMG.
If you wipe your Tab , isn' t touch the the modem.
Install a TWRP 2.8.7.0 with Odin. Boot into Recovery and wipe system, cache , cache dalvik and the internal Sdcard.
Boot directly into the download mode and flash Stock Firmware.
But when i want to give the Tab to my Sister, than i install the newest ROM , this up to date with all latest security Patches.
If you need the Modem.img than must you download a 4 Part ROM.
Edit:
Try at first to boot into the Stock Recovery and make a factory reset.
Thanks
