Ok you been running custom roms root stock roms and now you want to join the rush for official release of ICS .But you have a non genuine firmware /product codes etc .
Simple method of preparing to get the release is one restore your original saved firmware on a clean phone Kies will update once your provider releases ICS .
No saved rom then go to
Check FUS downloader: http://fus.nanzen.se/download.php?id=12
Download and open it find your phone find the original supplier ie Voda Orange TMob etc or punch in your phones original codes and download the firmware .
Backup data and anything you want to save from your phone just in case .A Nandroid backup is useful at this point .
Now open Odin and flash the firmware you just downloaded this will also remove root .Its unzip download to single file .tar.md5 Open Odin put this file to PDA and flash as normal
Connect to Kies and when your phone provider updates you get ICS via Kies .
Above should apply to FOTA updates if they are available as well .
Alternative is to wait for ICS release and grab your copy via CheckFus or grab a stock Samsung ICS rom from the stock roms sources once released .
Or just sit back with your GB and wait for the custom roms to be built on ICS before moving to Android 4 my preferred choice .

Again all these methods need not be used for ICS but can be used to download the original firmware that can be flashed for warranty purpose as well as upgrades .

Why are you posting this? ICS doesn't come out today. You get mad at others for posting ICS topics and threads, yet you posted one when ICS is not even coming out today.

If you bothered to read the post its for people who might want to start preparing their phones in anticipation of the ics release via kies.

You can't see the distinction between a guide to prepare your device for updating to ICS officially and a bunch half-baked-rush-to-post threads about the latest ICS release date news?
Good stuff! This should help quite a few noobs and hopefully reduce the amount of 'how do I upgrade' threads once ics is released. Because there will be plenty of them.
Probably a good idea to make a guide for downgrading from ics because, like downgrading from 2.3.6 people will ask that question 100 times a day after release.
I wonder how many times we will have to link this and other helpful threads in the near future.

I think you've missed the point.
This thread is a good idea. I've subscribed!
I have root using Easy Rooting Toolkit [v4.0](zergRush Exploit).
Have downloaded latest matching firmware, but file have extension .enc2 ... what does this mean?
Can I then use Odin Mobile with EverRoot to flash this firmware downloaded using FUS downloader?
And how much will be wiped?
Thanks
great post
willbe very helpfull
don't pay attention to stupid comments
Thanks mate you are going to save me and others a whole lot of typing soon.

Someone always has to moan about something.
Is it stupidity or jealousy maybe ?
This is a useful topic, with no mention of update dates.
Well done.

Ok I've searched all over the place and granted I am on my phone I can't find it anywhere :/ I've found the thread about it but whenever I click on any of the links it takes me to the devs blog page and I can't find it on there either :/
I'm just looking to flash the old version for now until the froyo build works out all the kinks...any info on that would also be appreciated since it is my first custom rom
If anyone has a link to it that would be really helpful thanks

Just for everyone know:
XXLQ5 has a Brick Bug Problem.
If you flashed this one have extreme caution.
There are several S2 Brick reports occurring.
If you want to downgrade your firmware be careful.
At the time only with Syiha Kernel 3.3.2 as been possible to do a nandroid restore.
Please view some info on this pages:

Sorry didnt see it
Sammobile did us a great favor, leaking ROMs that will brick some devices... I wouldn't have released this. Just look at some leaked roms from the n7000. I prefer to not have leaked ROMs and wait for the official. Not their fault, but they now it's risky.

Finally sold my arc s and bought a new galaxy tab 2 p3100

Is there a reason that new users always like to create threads like this? I feel like one pops up almost weekly saying "I just got xyz device and I'm going to/want to develop ROMs/Kernels/Themes for it". Why not just save the post and when you actually do have something, like a new ROM/kernel or whatever, post a thread for it in the Development section and give a small background in the OP there instead.
could have something to do with the fact they can't post I development section till they have 10 posts first.

Why would you want to move this thread when it was posted before the first thread in your quote ?
Because there is a sticky thread that's all about jb.

No idea as of now. Why don't u use Odin and Flash 4.1.2 of UK?

Not trying to market mobile Odin pro (it does not require any), use it to get back to stock anytime without needing a computer.
edit: Do we need another thread for a simple question like this? Please consider posting such questions in an existing thread - Indian users thread might be a good place
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
No one really knows, cause that really depends from the phone company to release 4.1.2 ... and they don't give any news about that stuff
Just be patient and wait.
or if you are rooting, install another ROM based on 4.1.2
Good idea but I want the original firmware.. guess I'll have to wait.. lol
Thanks though
