Hey everyone!
I've been lurking here for a while, and I've been very impressed with the roms that have emerged, and particularly the work of Pika, without whom my phone would no doubt be rather boring.
I've made mistakes, nearly bricked my phone, lost my IMEI, overclocked it too far, all sorts of fun stuff that usually turns out to be the best way to learn new things.
Currently, my phone works fine, but I've got an itch, as I often get with computers, to wipe everything and start again, to make it as fast as possible.
This is my current setup:
Model: U8800pro
Android version: 4.0.4
Baseband version: 404029
Kernel version: 3.0.8-perf-g4fc0f23 [email protected] #1 Tue Oct 16 13:37:27 CST 2012
Shendu Mod version: ShenDu-U8800pro-v2.0.4-121016
But I really can't figure out how to go back. Every single stock firmware I've downloaded, causes an error when I try to install it (using the dload on an sdcard method). Does anyone have any ideas how to revert all the way back to Froyo (or GB would suffice I guess, but of course I'd like to take it all the way back and start completely afresh).
Thanks for your time.

Just use the stock dload method from huawei but use the usb cable to power the phone, with the battery removed.
That should stop the error with flashing.
Thread moved. OP please have a look to the forum rules. Thanks

Here is a latest ROM I9000XXJVU, rooted by Stock+ Team!
3 file ROM Type: 3 Files for flashing with ODIN (with PIT's & Re-partition) ~180MB
Kernel: I9000XXJVU Rooted (by Grooby)
3 file ROM Link: http://hotfile.com/dl/140338247/ef4c33c/3file_PDA_I9000XXJVU_CSC_XXJVU_MODEM_I9000XXJVU_ROOTED_stock.zip.html (by $omator)
NO MIRRORS PLEASE!
Just to make sure (and to avoid FC), please do clean cache and full wipe/factory reset after and prior to flashing.
(Remember that factory reset deletes all user installed apps!)
Remember to connect your phone to pc and run "RunMe.bat" after flashing, to copy all necessary binaries and profit with full ROOT!
Enjoy!

Need Help
Hi,
I installed your firmware.
Problems:
1)While using bluetooth handsfree, after the call ends, iam getting FC error - process.com.android.phone has stopped...
2)2/3 times the phone hangs.Need to take battery out.
3)2/3 times screen goes black,hangs and rebooted.
Solution Tried:
Installed FC fix for XXJVU. Now the phone FC problem didn't come.
But the battery drains very very fast.
Pls help me with a solution.
Thanks.
plz remove the S+ prefix in the name of the thread coz it's confusing, an S+ (i9001) member might flash it and brick his device.

ICS CM9 IS still in (early) development and You expect it to be perfectly working? LOL Only thing not working there for me are MMS so looks like u flashed in wrong way? I recorded video just last night,USB works fine(u need diffrent drivers) and YT does the job. Anyway YES this one is stock+root as title says. 3 files to flash with ODIN
Looking at your phone model, you are in the wrong forum.
This is only for GT-I9000 aka Galaxy S
Yours is GT-I9100, which is Galaxy S2
So please check it on Galaxy S2 area.

i dont know which threads to follow guys
i bought a moto defy with red lens (brayer) since January and when i got home
was very xcited to customize it so came to xda developers and got started (on the day of purchase) ...
downloaded superoneclick and some bits and pieces and flashed my phone...
well at first flash it stoped working
this is what happen when i don't read... stupid me
eventually i got it working back after 2 long struggling days ...
i flashed it with shadow 134 i think .. and after i got it working, i never tried anything else i was fed up...
But now i want to sort my defy out again...
This is my device info:
System version: 45.0.10.MB526.Retail.en.GB
android vers: 2.3.4
Baseband: EPU93_U_00.5F.00
Kernel version: [email protected] #1
Build number: 4.5.1-134_DFP-10
so by all this info, i am able to understand that i have a fixed sbf which is CG6 (some1 corect me if i am wrong)
On top of that i have: (SUPERUSER, DEFY 2NDINIT 2.0, SYSTEM RECOVERY) installed on my defy
its a bit scary for me to go and flash it without any advice like before and get stuck again
so if any1 has any idea how can i move up to CM9 without having lots of trouble
i agree i can have a bit of trouble but not to much..
theres so many threads to follow and am not able to choose which one
Any Defy Xpert arround who may help
Thanks for Reading my lengthy post
I was having some issues with my browser and email client and suspected it was due to not running a stock rom. Initially when ICS came out I was a little impatient, didn't wait for the OTA update and installed one of the "released" images.
Yesterday i spent most of the day trying different image. Initially I hoped to install an older version, like honey comb and the to OTA back to a stock ICS rom.
It seems that once your bootloader has been converted to ICS there is now way of going back to Honeycomb. I tried some things suggested on xda developer forum, but none produced the results.
I then installed what I believe is the current stock rom for an A500 giving me the following:
Android version: 4.0.3
Kernel version: 2.6.39.4+
Image version: Acer_AV041_A500_RV03RC01_WW_GEN1
Build number: Acer_AV041_A500_1.0.31.00_WW_GEN1
What I would like to confirm is that this is correct and that this version is the latest available from Acer.
I am not really interested in any of the custom images and don't need it rooted. So a stock standard Acer ROM should do me just fine.

Look in the dev section , the latest is 1.054.00_ww_gen1. It is in the sticky thread.
This thread describes in detail what I did http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1961301 but now my tablet is bricked. I am still hoping for some way of recovering it though.

This is what happens when you have multiple threads going. Nobody knows what the heck is going on.
Perhaps you think it increases your odds of getting your issue fixed, but now, it only compounds things.
If one of the issues is solved, then you need to edit your title thread to state so. This can be done by selecting Edit, Go Advanced.

The reason I started two threads was to answer different question. In this thread I was looking for the latest official released version of ICS available. The other thread describes my journey of trying different ROMs. I was hoping to downgrade to 3.1/3.2 and then to OTA to ICS. Well that is covered in the other thread.
Thanks for all your help. I got my answer on the latest version.
Hi folks, I'm new to this forum/site, just looking for a few pointers. I've been using a BlackBerry Curve (8330) since 2008- it's been a great phone and hasn't ever significantly let me down. However, I was given a phone about a year ago (Verizon Motorola Droid Razr M, XT907) and it's just been sitting in a closet here since I got it. Decided to finally get with the times and would like to start using it, hence why I'm here.
I'm wanting to put a custom ROM on it, though really don't know where to start. There appears to be several different ones, not sure how each differs from the next. I have experience installing a custom OS on my BlackBerry but am completely in the dark with Droid phones. Came across a few sticky threads on how to go about installing ROMs and such, just looking for suggestions at this point I guess.
I reset this Razr M to factory stock- twice just to be sure. My main goal is to remove all the unnecessary bloatware that comes pre-installed on this thing (if possible)- Amazon Kindle, Amazon MP3, Audible, Backup+ Media, NFL Mobile, etc. I won't be using about 75% of the preinstalled applications.
The phone as it sits in front of me-
System Version
98.30.1.XT907.Verizon.en.US
Model Number
DROID RAZR M
Android Version
4.1.2
Baseband Version
SM_BP_101032.021.32.80P

[email protected] #1
Build Number
9.8.1Q-94-1
Build Date
Thu Sep 26 12:22:41 CDT 2013
So, my question(s) are mainly- Does it matter which version I'm running in order to be able to install a custom ROM on here?
Would like to eventually root this, though not a priority at the moment. Is it required to be able to put a custom ROM on it?
I see KitKat being mentioned often along with JellyBean and Ice Cream Sandwich, something or other. No idea what any of those are. Could someone elaborate a bit?
Thanks much in advance, apologies for being the n00b.

to install a custom rom you need an Unlocked bootloader and custom Recovery like TWRP

Installing a Custom Rom will be installed over stock, and will not contain bloatware.
If you just want to remove Bloatware, all you need is Root access.

Likely best option is Flash 4.4.2 (182/183.46.10 )Firmware with RSD Lite then unlock bootloader

then read it again

Upgrade away man, just be sure to take a TWRP backup and move it to your PC for safe keeping. Just in case things go wrong :good:
I flashed the factory image for Oreo today, and will be checking it out for a few days (I opted out of the preview)
I have been bouncing back and forth between 3 different builds, AOKP, Desolation and Screwd (all great ROMs), but there's plenty of others to choose from...

What is wrong with stock 8.0, TWRP, custom kernel (eg. EX) and maybe root if you need certain appz? Can't go wrong this way. Back your stuff up, full wipe, and let her rip. We're talking what, an hour or two tops?
