i need help, i restored my nandroid backup which s the JI6. i am using the fusion 1.1 then after that i reboot now after the restore now i am stuck at the vibrant. please help. i do have the stock kernel. no lagfix.
i can go to download mode and recovery mode. will i now do the odin?
How long did u let it sit on the vibrant screen? It usually takes a while

I can't really follow. Did you not like fusion and want stock instead? Which fusion did you download? Did you follow sombionix's instructions? Also agree about asking how long you waited. What exactly is it that you want?
I like the fusion 1.1 but I would like to go back to stock JI6 first because I will unlock the phone to other carriers. unless I can unlock the phone while I'm rooted and using a custom Rom.
I'm back to fusion by doing a nandroid restore of fusion 1.1, but why does my nandroid backup of the ji6 isn't working. like I said its stuck at the vibrant screen for more than 5 mins.

Do not do a nandroid restore, instead try to install Ji6 over fusion using ODIN or Rom manager.
does unlocking the phone have something to do with the Rom or rooting? cause if not, I wouldn't be going back to JI6

You don't need to unlock your phone to root of flash roms. Ive done both w/o unlocking my phone. Now using odin flashing I don't think you need to but I'm not sure

you misunderstood me, i will unlock my phone because i need to. in a few months i will be no longer be with T-mobile that's why i need to unlock the phone.
Try flashing the JI6 modem, then reapplying the nandroid backup, because fusion 1.1 uses the JI2 modem.

i'll try that after i get the codes for unlocking this phone. do you know whether i can unlock the phone even if i am rooted or using a custom rom?
to get the unlock codes, I believe you have to be on stock firmware JFD

but getting an unlock code can be obtain from tmobile. If I do get a code can I use it with custom Rom?

I thought that you cannot get unlock codes for this phone from t mobile yet. Anyway I used the method that you can find in the android dev forums, which I think only works with the stock firmware
By the way did you unbrick your phone?

I had the same issue as you. Stuck on the Vibrant screen after the nandroid backup. Turns out I had the wrong kernel.
You need the Kernel-Vibrant-StockJI6.zip kernel. Apply that kernel after you do your nandroid backup.
Search the forums for it. If you can't find it, I will upload it later.

I used Bionix Final.
I was on stock JI6, went to Bionix Final with stock kernel, tried to nandroid back to my JI6, got stuck on the Vibrant screen. Got the JI6 kernel, and I got back.
I've attached the kernel for you if you need it.

I have had this same issue, when i did a nandroid back up while on stock ji6 then loaded bionix 1.9 on ji6 kernel and tried to reload my nandroid back up it soft bricked my phone. i have never been able to load a stock ji6 nandroid back on a bionix rom with it soft bricking. So i just made a back up when i was on 1.9 with ji6 and then created another back up when i switched to the ji2 modem just to cover all my bases. Side note always make sure your not loading a back up that has programs or mods that will not be compatible with what ever new rom or kernel you will be installing or you will soft brick every time.
Hi, im running alien #4 at the moment but i was wondering how i can go back to stock so i can reflash from therebecause the fingerprint scanner isnt working. Ive already tried just reflashing from alien or flashing other roms also. thanks!

Have you tried a fruitcake recovery? Those are about as stock as you can get.

There are UCKH7 and UCKK6 stock kernels floating around. No need to back them up, they're out there already.
Does anyone know if there's a CWM flash able stock 2.3.4 kernal or rom .. thanks

Thanks for the info.. Im quite aware that you sbf to go back and I always backup .. My question was ,because I've been searching multiple times , is if anyone has made a flashable stock rom or a flashable kernal from the stock rom.. But thanks for the sarcasm it was very helpful

I am thinking about installing a custom kernel and was just wondering how easy it is to install the stock kernel back if I need to? Do I have to do a nandroid backup and full restore or can I find just find the stock kernel somewhere and flash it?
Regards,
BTJ
it's not hard....
easiest way....go download original stock firmware from other thread....
to put original back, simply flash it with mobile Odin....or Odin
