How to get back to stock based rom from cm10.2? - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

I'm in cm10.2 and now I want to flash stock based ics rom.
My question is should I only flash ics stock based kernel directly and then rom
or
flash ics original stock rom first which is ftf formet and then flash stock based rom?

Normally it's not necessary to flash the stock ftf first, so you can just install the kernel and rom you like

[Q] Updating to a Jelly Bean Custom Rom

Hi there!
I am wanting to update my Samsung Galaxy GT-i9300 but am worried about the process because of having installed a custom kernel previously (would this muck up installing a new custom rom I wonder..)
Please find attached a screenshot of the settings and please tell me what I should do (if anything needs done) before I flash a new custom rom.
Cheers!
if you're worried about kernels, then just flash stock kernel then flash a custom rom on it.

kk, could you provide me with a suitable stock kernel (or links to one) which will be compatible with the rom I have installed?
any stock kernel that is for jb will be fine.

I am on android version 4.0.4 (so technically not JellyBean). and its safe to flash a stock kernel for JB despite being on that version before I flash a custom rom?
Sorry for asking, get confused easily..
you should be fine updating with a custom kernel (as all roms flash a kernel as well). Just make sure you factory reset when moving from ics to JB as you will most likely encounter problems if you don't.

I would suggest flashing ICS stock kernel first if you're worried. I thought you were already on jb.

No, the leaked stock JB 4.1.2 is not deodexed ma8, for the deodexed one u can try 'Neat Rom' which is based on the leaked JB4.1.2
u can flash 'Philz' kernel thro ODIN to root ur phone with leaked JB4.1.2 though
to get root flash this kernal.
>PhilZ-cwm6 - Stock i9100/i9100P SAFE kernel with CWM6
you will not see cwm in the apps, it is part of the 4 boot. press power and then restart, it give you the option to boot into recovery.
which thread did you get the rom from. If it is a custom rom it is mostly deodexed. Stock rom is odexed.
for ROOT You can flash philz kernel via odin-.tar.md5
via stock recovery -signed.zip
Leaked 4.1.2 is Odex .Mod for both odex & deodex in Thread =[MOD][LSJ][v3.9]PURE_INK+MultiWin+Ripple+SS/SR{TITLE Cant Say Any More}
in section DOWNLOAD ODEXED

You don't need to be running stock ICS to flash CM 9.1 .But you have to do a full wipe before flashing CM 9.1. And yes you definitely have to flash the kernel of CM 9.1.
All you need is a custom recovery to flash whatever version of Android that's available for your phone. You don't need to be running a stock version prior to it. And you need to flash the CM9.1 kernel before flashing the ROM. Kernels get flashed along with the ROM usually, but some phones need the kernel to be flashed separately due to partially unlockable bootloaders. When the bootloader is fully unlocked, the boot.img can be flashed to the /boot partition in recovery itself. But for phones with only partially unlockable bootloaders, the boot.img has to be flashed separately using a computer.
Thanx for the reply..... I have an u locked boot loader but i guess in Xperia devices kernel cant be flashed with Cwm recovery.......

[Q] Go back to stock

I have installed CM9.1 in my SK17i. I havent done anything with my phone after flashing this custom rom.
Now i want to go back to stock rom.
My questions are
1. Is it possible to flash a stock rom via clockwork ? If yes then i will need a flashable stock rom. Yes? From where can i get it?
2. If the above is not possible, which is the next option available?
There should be a prerooted rom.zip in the development forums to flash it in cwm
But if I were you I'd just download the stock rom .ftf and flash it using flashtool in flashmode
