miui
I recommend that you go to http://miuiandroid.com/community/
from there just select the type of miui you want and there should be instructions. You can also google "MIUI <country name>" for more country/language oriented versions of it. Installations of MIUI will usually root your device by default so you don't have to mess around with it.
Hope that helps.

Can any one give me detatiled instruction ??
How do i root...cwm nd do i need to upgrade latest firware ???

Flash stock ginger bread rom through odin. Then flash a kernel (cf-root for example) through odin. Now you have cwm recovery. Copy the zip file of ics rom (I recommend aokp rom by bhuvan) to the phone. Go into recovery and do full wipe and flash the rom.zip. If you end up into bootloops then open recovery again, do full wipe and flash the zip file again.

Really, 'HI'?.....go to Facebook dude, xda is for nOObs and trolls only and yeah also those weird people......mhmmmm......mhhhmmmm...me . ≈_≈

Once you flash the cf-root kernel the cwm is installed automatically. For links, go to android development section and find the threads for each particular thing.

every thing is avalable...you just need to search

Flash stock kernel then use toolbox to provide dual recovery and restore your data.
thanks for the replies but perhaps you didnt understand my problem...i cant go back to stock 2.1 rom which is necessary for flashing any kernel. so i cant flash stock kernel or dual mode recovery.

Mind to elaborate why you CAN'T flash back to 2.1? What's keeping you?
simply put after i flashed alfs kernel i got cwm recovery installed. i didnt make a backup of stock rom. so after installing gingerdx v013 i now have no way of reverting back to stock without flashing a ftf file which i really dont want to do.

Ok, if you don't want to flash back through the 2.1 FTF image you're somewhat out of options ... as the only way to "go Stock" from a custom Kernel and custom ROM is ...
... Flash back Stock Kernel (that only works through Flashtool - irakkarl has a link to the stock kernel FTF in his FroyoPro thread).
... Flash back Stock 2.1.1 through either PC Companion ("Repair" - which will most likely fail with "No updates available" due to the higher version of the custom ROM) or through Flashtool using the ROM FTF.
I think you also need to relock the bootloader.

Well on my cwm recovery when I go to backup and restore then restore there is an option that says restore from xrecovery, and that's how I do it.

He's not asking to go back to full stock, he's asking how to go back to stock rom 2.1 from his xrecovery backup. Read it carefully.

which sounded more like a bashing
but we're not here to fight on trivial matters....so umm any chance somebody backed up his eclair system in cwm recovery. please upload it to 4shared.com and post the link here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1431231 here you have the cwm backup,but,it will not change your kernel,you need to useflashtool,please read it carreful,when i posted that link i knew what you need ,remember you need flashtool to flash the kernel there is no other way.cheers
edit:you can change the kernel ,you don't need 2.1 eclair for that,you need ftf kernel file and that's all.
Verry simple
To restore a xrec backup in cwm just rename the xrecovery folder from sd card to cwmrecovery

How do I go revert to Gingerbread from a an ICS custom rom?

If there are instructions on how to do this please post a link or maybe someone can help? Thank you.
Note: I am currently using Imikla's ICS rom, not sure what version...I flashed this in March so its based on an early ICS leak.
My kernel is: 3.0.15-I9220ZCLP1-CL131270 [email protected] #3

flash a gb kernel such as abyss 4.2 and you can then flash a gb rom fgrom cwm or you can use odin to flash stock

Because there aren't any clear instruction of how to flash and what settings to use to flash a kernel and the little details.
Entropy512 said:
The safest way to get away from ICS is:
Use PC Odin or Heimdall to flash a safe Gingerbread kernel with working CWM (NOT a full firmware package, and DO NOT mess with repartitioning), such as a Gingerbread CF-Root release. From there you can wipe and then flash whatever you want.
To be clear - JUST flash a safe kernel and then wipe/flash using that - don't flash anything else in PC Odin. If the full firmware package you flash has bootloaders it could hose you.

entropys instructions
I've flashed the Abyss kernel as stated and now I have a problem, it stays at the loading screen, excellent instructions guys!
Flash any stock GB ROM via PC ODIN. Do not tick repartition.
Try flashing a single file ROM, not 3 files ROM.
In case if fails, then try flashing a stock 3 files ROM (PDA, MODEM & CSC) alongwith .PIT file and re-partition checked.

[Q]Stock Kernel

Hi guys, i decided to flash JellyBlast rom, but i'm using merruk pre finaç 2.0 kernel, and JellyBlast needs to be stock to flash. Well, i did not found how to flash back to stock kernel.

My baseband version is UTLG1, so if you guys could help me providing the kernel and a little tutorial reaching me how to flash it, it would be just amazing !! Thanks

I followed this tutorial but i still don't know how to flash the kernel via CWM
Another question: Could i remove the .md5 extension, so it will be .tar, and then extract the boot.img with winrar and flash it?
i replied to your PM
Flash the stock kernel Via odin , put the File in the PDA , then start flashing
G.L
Is it possible to flash via CWM? Odin usually doesn't work for me...
i had never seen a stock kernel .zip !
sorry
Theres a new methoed by mai77, which is explained in the second post of this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1550065 . But i dont know how to flash the stock kernel using it
Well before installing savie kernel i googled how to backup kernel nd i guess it did backuped the stock kernel nd i have still got the backup and the flashable .zip file which can help u but..
P.S.:- i havnt tried this...
But i can surely post it if u want.
i or xda will be not responsible if ur phone gets bricked or something happens as i have not tested it personally..
So if u brick your phone u are the one who is responsible

3) Switch off ur Phone.
4) Enter Stock Recovery by pressing Power+Home+Vol.up buttons at once and hold.

Good to know. Could you please provide step-by-step detail. I have JB 4.1.2 XXLSJ installed on the GT-I9100. I tried ODIN v1.85 and 3.04 but it does not take the Philz CWM 3.1 zip file. It looks for tar, smd, md5, gz, tgz. What steps do I need to take to make this file work with ODIN?
