Is someone making a FULL EB13 Odin update that don't require DI18 and can be applied from scratch?Clean imstall is better than over DI18 update.
And is someone making a deodexed EB13 Clockwork zip?So we can mod the stock rom and remove/add some things.
Samsung actually made it. It's the .exe file. People say it works great.

i have a nandroid of ji6. do i just apply that and flash a ji6 kernal? can someone link me to one if so? if not, can someone explain how to do it? thanks.
I believe you have to ODIN the official JI6 release (you can find it in the dev forum). Then you have to root, install ROM Manager, and nandroid your way back to where you were.
The key is to Odin a Rom, any Rom, that has the JI6 kernel.
Odin JI6 and then nandroid.
Nandroid doesn't install the kernel, so you would end up with a "brick" if you tried to nandroid on a 2.2 rom.
thanks guys! loving obsidian so far, but i think i need the signal strength boost from ji6.
Nope, I was on Obsidian and just flashed straight back to Bionic Fusion through clockworkmod recovery (straight, not through ROM Manager), and then Core kernel on top of that. I'm running perfect apart from slow market downloads (mostly my fault I think--accidentally deleted some system apparently and then restored; downloads work, but fussy)

that's because bionix flashes the kernal along with the rom. nandroid doesn't. that is why i asked if i could just flash the ji6 kernel after restoring my nandroid.
ATTN: Don't give advice if you don't know what you're talking about.
On to the post:
You can feel free to nandroid or flash to/from anything. However, if your Obsidian install is like many other peoples, you probably can't do crap in recovery. In that case, you need to Odin. However, if your recovery does work, just flash the rom and the kernel (or just the rom, if the kernel is included)
OK ill give it a shot if I decide I don't like obsidian. Thanks.

By can't do crap do you mean can't flash or can't access clockwork mod? (I can boot into clockworkmod just fine)

Ah, sorry. I thought the issue was whether you have to ODIN back to stock in order to roll back from Froyo.
For me the safest was to ODIN JFD, then flash JI6.
All i want to do is install a metamorph, and flash a couple things. But i have to go through so much to get these even working. I rooted and installed busybox, but now metamorph says there isnt enough free space in /system. ugh.. and to get CWM working, i have to push 3e recovery so that the update.zip works? wtf dude this is gay.
Im on stock jk6 btw
Odin back to stock ji6 then flash the stock jk6 rom. Everything will work after... I had the same problem. Everything is good now.

JK6 is a LEAK, therefore, things haven't been totally updated for it. And since there's no source for 2.2 yet for vibrant, using another recover for it (2e) is pretty hard. If you want an easy way to get root+busybox+3e all in one, flash the deodexed CWM flashable in the dev section (after ODIN'ing to jfd). You can't expect all the previous methods from 2.1 to work as they did with 2.2...

My phone was having the exact problems he listed. When i tried to use metamorph it would tell me that there wasn't enough space in the system. What i did was odin back to stock ji6 then flash sombionx's flashable stock jk6 threw cwm. Everything is good now. No problems at all.

**Sigh**
Searching is helpful man, really. There was a thread about this yesterday. Use the program at this link: One Click Root And Recovery
One of its options is a root uninstaller. But FYI as long as you don't install custom roms or delete stock apps you can be rooted and get OTA updates. Again, this is all information you can get using the search function so please, in the future search first.
EDIT: Removed. Duplicate of what kenvan19 said...
But taking a second look at your sig, you may need to flash a stock rom/kernel first, but it may be easier to just use Odin to fully return to a stock phone removing all changes.

RootUninstaller is Old. Needs updating.
I encounter some problems using the link kevin gave with the root uninstaller. Attempts failed. I am on EC05 trying to uninstall the root and cwm using old DI18 rootuninstaller.
Any one know if there is an updated version?
just ODIN stock ec05. Or ODIN stock di18 then do update to ec05.
Here is an article with rooting and unrooting instructions and links to all drivers and programs needed:

If you have a rooted stock kernel and ROM it will. But if you have a custom ROM and kernel you need to Odin back. Mybackup Pro will allow you to backup and restore unrooted.

Alternatively, check out http://lostandtired.com and go to android development, he has a link to a stock odin flash on multiupload. While you're there, read some about autism awareness, as it is autism awareness month.

Nope, has anyone tried unrooting? The unroot method does not want to work on EC05. It goes through the process and on everything its says failed! rm /**** no permissions. Also ran CWM to fix permissions..
I still can't find a solution. Stock EC05 that is rooted to 2.5.1.0 using one click root.
Any other tips?

Just run ODIN and flash a clean stock build of DI18 then OTA over it to EC05.

MyBackup Pro wont restore app data without root. I haven't found anything that will. Has it done it for you? The website says if rooted it will restore app+data. I really just need data.
Has anyone tried this on MyBackup Pro?

He asked for a stock ROM, why suggest that?
You can find KA6 stock here:

Apply using ODIN.
OP, not to sound rude... just look in the dev section for the ODIN and CWR flashable versions.

Just to back the OP a litte...
I'm not even sure what the stock 2.2 is. All this talk of KA6 and KA7 and on top of that all the leaked or not... and people tossing out flash this rom or flash that rom.. it gets confusing when your not used to this. If you go in to the developers section and look, nothing is labeled "stock 2.2 cwm flash able" and when you search for it, you get a bunch of old links to non official 2.2.
I never looked for it till OP asked. I'm happy with the rom im running right now, but I feel your confusion OP.
Edit:
There is also usually at least one clear cut thread on how to get the update and how to root the update. Maybe ill put this together.
yeah some people might need the stock rom to make warranty claims.
I would sure love to know why it is being said that KA7 is "official froyo OTA." I don't believe I have heard Samsung or T-mobile even mention KA7 so how would anyone know?

So right now there is no flashable version of the official stock 2.2?
So far all I've done is rooted, red cwm,and flashed the eb01 modem. I'm not ready and would like to go back to ea28. How is the easiest, and safest method? Is there a DI01 or EA28 modem I can flash over EB01? Or should I use adryn's DI01 All in One Odin package? Thanks

Just Odin the All in one package, easiest one for stock.
