How to get your rooted Galaxy S II I9100 back to complete stock
This means that you will have:
Stock Bootloader
Stock ROM
Flash Counter Set To Zero
Stock Recovery
INTRODUCTION:So, the vibration on my SGS2 is broken, but I also rooted my phone, because, well, Samsung TouchWiz sucks. So anyway, being pedantic old me, I wanted to develop a method to reset my phone ENTIRELY to stock so that I could send it off to get repaired. I have found this method.
My main problem derived from the fact that USB Jigs no longer work on ICS which is irritating because I only just got it. I made this guide so there is finally something on the Internet where all the information is in one place.
NB: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOU DOING ANYTHING TO YOUR GALAXY S II AND THAT INCLUDES BRICKING THE DEVICE. YOU ARE DOING THIS WITH FULL-KNOWLEDGE OF ANY DAMAGE THAT COULD POSSIBLY BE DONE TO YOUR PHONE.
NB: ROMs like I9100XWLPM and I9100XXLQ5 are vulnerable to the eMMC bug and that willl brick your phone if you do a wipe/factory reset with CMW (probably stock too) Thanks cpl.Bower
Here's your shopping list:
A Windows PC or if you have a Mac, a Windows Virtual Machine (haven't used a vitual machine so not sure if it works, but give it a try and let me know!)
Odin which you can get here.
Chainfire's Triangle Away Application which you can get here or on the android market if you feel you want to donate to him.
ClockworkMod ROM Manager you can get here (I would highly doubt that as root user you don't have this)
Download your corresponding Stock Kernel from here.
So here is the method:
1) Open Chainfire's Triangle Away app and press "Reset flash counter" to reset the counter and remove the triangle. It does not matter if there is no triangle already.
2) Do a nandroid backup using Clockworkmod recovery if necessary (to get to it; turn off your phone, press the power button, volume up button, and home button at the same time and hold it down for a while). This is done so that you can restore your original OS like I would want to after getting my phone back from Samsung if you're restoring it for that sole purpose.
3) (Mandatory) Wipe Data/Factory Reset in recovery menu. IF YOU DON'T DO THIS, YOUR PHONE WILL BECOME STUCK ON THE "S" LOADING SCREEN. You also should wipe the cache partition and the internal SD card. The internal SD card in case you have any directories which may link you to rooting your phone, such as clockwork mod.
4) Restart into Download Mode and plug your phone into a windows computer.
5) Open Odin , click PDA, choose the STOCK kernel. Make sure that F. Reset Time, Auto Reboot and the PDA checkboxes are checked and NOTHING ELSE.
6) Click Start. The phone will restart now. It takes a while to load up as the applications need to install. Keep an eye on the phone, it'll ask you for your carrier. This does NOT mean the phone will be locked to a network.
7) Follow the instructions and set your phone up.
8) ???????
9) PROFIT
10) (Optional) You may want to check to see if your phone is set to stock to confirm. I cannot guarantee 100% that there will be no evidence of root on your phone, but hey, I still got warranty service after doing something similar to this on the old firmware.
To check to see if your flash counter is set to zero: hold down the power button, volume down button and home button until a "Warning!!" screen appears. Press volume up and make sure it says CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: NO and CURRENT BINARY: SAMSUNG OFFICIAL. You may also want to make sure that there is no warning triangle on the first screen when you start your phone
To check to see if your recovery is set to stock: hold down the power button, volume up button and the home button until your phone goes black after the first boot screen. To make sure it is stock, there should be no "CWM-based Recovery" at the top or anything indicating clockworkmod or any other custom recovery.
Any errors in the process (besides the one in the Q&A), I may not know what you have done. I have done this with my phone and it worked fine.
PLEASE REMEMBER TO RATE AND THANK ME
Q&A:
Q: I'm stuck on the "S" loading screen, what did I do wrong?
A: You didn't do a factory reset! To fix this, turn off your phone, go to recovery, wipe the data, reflash with the stock kernel and it'll be okay. If not, I have no idea what's wrong.
Q: How do I get to recovery?
A: Turn off your phone and hold down the power/sleep button, the volume up button and the home button at the same time until the first boot logo goes black, then you need to let go.
Q: DUDE, THIS TUTORIAL IS AWESOME, HOW CAN I EVER REPAY YOU OH MIGHTY MIKE?!
A: Rate this thread 5 stars and thank me.
Thanks for reading
If anyone can give feedback when they try this, I'd be thankful

Good job
If I were sending a phone in for warranty service/replacement, I'd go a step further with the factory reset & format cache, data, system, & internal sd card in CWM, then flash stock rom in Odin, then Triangle Away (If flashing stock ICS and assuming you have new bootloader) or flash old bootloader & use jig (if flashing stock GB).
Edit to add - Obviously also do a Nandroid before the above steps so you can get up & running when you get your phone back/new phone as you said

Ah yes, I remember wiping cache and dalvik cache too I will be sure to edit my post to add that! The internal SD card's contents may give away root, haha! I'll be sure to add that too! Thanks a lot, I'll credit you!

Nah, not wiping cache/Dalvik, actually formatting the cache partition in CWRecovery. And yeah, if you want to be absolutely sure; well as sure as possible in any event; you can't get a 100% guarantee of warranty service once you've gone down the custom firmware route, formatting the internal SD card should get rid of any potentially 'incriminating evidence'

Ah right sorry, I misunderstood you haha! Well, I rooted my phone before and I honestly couldn't find a trace of root and got warranty service, but you never know!
I actually got warranty service while my HTC Wildfire was rooted, so I never see at as impossible!
I shall correct the mistakes, thank you once again
My method
Seeing as I bought the USB jig, I prefer to just do a full, thorough wipe as described above, then flash back to stock GB. A quick plug in of the old jig and it's clean. Also, the warnings about messing with bootloaders being a gateway to a fully bricked device put me off.
This thread is a great idea, though. I had to trawl over so many sites to find information about things like this. Good work.

Great guide, and just in time too. My SGS2 seems to have launched itself into its deathbed less than a week after the ICS update here in Australia. Battery life is barely holding overnight.

What are the benefits of flashing the ICS bootloader?

I put it there because it is the stock Bootloader for ICS... I had it at my disposal because I was going to flash an older bootloader so I could use USB jig and then flash back to the stock with the bootloader in the download section.
Honestly, unless you flashed some other bootloader, I wouldn't bother with it. It makes no difference really, I managed to get back to stock without doing that
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
Its been along time since I last flashed through Odin (I normally flash rom's through cwm), but to get back to stock don't you simply just flash back an original rom which corresponds which your region ?
The rom should already have the correct bootloader and you should not have the yellow triangle as you have not flashed an insecure kernel ?

Because this is the only technique I find which ensures removed root and full stock on everything. Main reason for doing this instead of flashing via cwm is because this technique is extremely thorough. And what you flash in ODIN isn't a rom.

Nothing as flashing a stock ROM via Odin will flash the same Bootloader anyway.

I'm currently running a rooted GT-l900T on ICS 4.0.3 (Australia/Vodafone) and am trying to follow your guide, but there's one thing I'm unclear about.
You say to download a stock kernel for my phone. How do I tell which kernel to download? I'm currently running a rooted XWLP9, should I be flashing a stock version of this? Will it do any damage if it's the incorrect kernel?
I found the XWLP9 stock kernel in the link you provided, but it says that the region is Netherlands and the carrier is also different to mine. Does this matter?
I'm trying to claim warranty tomorrow for a hardware problem, and would appreciate an answer ASAP. Thanks for your time!
hey if i use custom rom like resurrection remix can i unroot my phone but still use the custom rom?

Hello, sorry for the wait, I've been doing important exams and have been occupied!
I just saw you're comment and I'm sorry you've had trouble. I have been doing much searching to help solve your problem and I *may* have found it.
I do warn you, i do not know the safety of this kernel and thus am not responsible for damage done this will be of your own consent if you did decide to proceed.
Here is a post I found while searching and it contains an international version of the XWLP9 firmware, maybe this is what you are looking for? I hope this helps!

hello guys, i am very upset and frustrated.... My Galaxy note auto upgraded to ics 4.0.3 a few days ago. though it had become a bit slow, i mean applications would take a bit longer time to open and sometime force stopped. still it was great... and yesterday i.e, 24/06/20012 my Note downloaded a auto update... after that prompted me to restart... when i did.. it restarted and went to update mode ( where you see the green android )..... after that it rebooted and where Samsung logo appears.... it is stuck there....in few minutes my Phone heats up a lot and Battery gets drained! i tried to hard reset it but with no luck....
please help if anybody has some solution... thanks
Can u use recovery to wide data cache or maybe download latest stock rom then use Odin to put back to factory if u need help let me know
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
What ics do you want to install? Lpy (europe), lp9(asian)or lp8and lpa(india).:silly:
You need new installation.
Was it rooted? or was it stock without any mods? If its later take it back to uncle Sammy and get it fixed.
Alternatively install a safe kernal via Odin-- i recommend Speedmod k3-3 and then only wipe data/factory reset via recovery.
Then try flashing the Stock Rom you want via Odin. If that doesnt work, you can explore the other options. ATM it is a soft brick, may or may not be the emmc bug..

I give you a warning first. If your not rooted there is a slim chance of getting a superbrick bug( by doing a factory reset or recovery data wipe) as samsung devs says. But if you root your phone that chances is big really big. But there is a solution, after your new ics installation flash safe kernel called speedmod k3-3. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1673072. It will not trigger the superbrick bug when doing a FACTORY RESET OR RECOVERY DATA WIPE, thats why its called a safe kernel. Use MOBILEODIN(get it from the google market) to flash a new rom, you root your phone first to be able to use mobileodin. After that flash speedmod k3-3 custom kernel to be safe.
For rooting ics rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1647148

Small warning for newbies as me, just in case.
I have Xperia Arc S, rooted, locked BL.
I changed rom and during this operation I pressed wrong key .
The sequence was as here:
- I wipped all to factory reset
- then in Mounts and Storage I wiped \system and \boot partitions
- then in Advanced I wipped Dalvik Cache
- then my fingers pressed wrong key when I was on Reboot Recovery option but it was too late.
Phone trying to reboot but there was no CWM recovery as it is installed on \system and I just wipped all to factory reset .
Of course such situation can be simply fixed by Flashtool, but I haven't my PC with me .
My advice is: do not press Reboot Recovery option in CMW recovery when you already delete all from your phone .
And rather change rom when your PC is available and ready to work. Just in case

That should be common sense, but I guess it's true what they say about common sense eh. This is why it's recommended to just unlock the bootloader, if you want to root to install custom kernels, ROMs etc then you might as well just go all out and unlock it in the first place.
In all my time here at XDA having owned an X10 and the Arc I've only ever seen one instance of a Phone being well and truly bricked so with those kind of stats I don't grasp why People don't just unlock their bootloader from the off.

Your right to a degree, but you have to remember its other things like hardware that can be damaged due to overclocking etc..
So it isn't just bricking you have to worry about.

In my country Xperia Arc S is rather expensive ;-(
The only reason why my phone still has locked bootloader is warranty/guarantee.
According to my little knowledge it is impossible to lock bootloader again with all settings as in hm... 'original', not modified phone?
so the main point is what? i don't really understand, so you did brick the phone/send it to phantom zone while doing those you mention above?

Hey everyone.
I moved from Aus to the UK this week and thought Id be clever and install the 3 stock rom to my i9505.
For some reason now, its horribly laggy, i get FC's galore, and the phone is unusable.
I have reflashed the firmware using ODIN a bunch of times, with no difference.I have also tried to wipe all caches and data, but when i try to do the cache, it hangs for ages and says Unable to mount 'data' or unable to mount cache.
Im really at a loss now... I am currently downloading Australia XSA (June 2013) to install to take it as far back to stock as I can but i dont really feel this will be that much different to the other 3 rom *aside from bloatware etc). Am I wrong?
Have i deleted a partition somehow?
If anyone can help me, ill be stoked.

looks like problem with recovery ( i had similar problem with SGS2) but hard to tell .... so why dont you try:
- reset to factory
-use odin 304 not 307
- or flash twrp recovery and than try to wipe data...system...
p.s. my problem with sgs2 was resoved as soon as i flashed twrp

hey guys!
my N4 is annoying the crap out of me, multiple stuff "not responding" constantly, only fixable by a restart.
im running slimbean, which i probably won't anymore, but im not sure if that is the issue.
i want to format my machine 100%, just leave the bootloader unlocked, and install a totally new install of a different rom,
i heavent decided yet but i know that if i just flash a new rom (and also do the 2 wipe cach things) the issues continue because i already
did that before.
so what exactly do i have to do in order to clean the machine, and than have a reallly fresh new install?
ty!
Well... I'm coming from Optimus 2X so I have no idea what I'm talking about, but when I want to do a complete format I go to recovery and in "mounts and storage" I choose format /sdcard.
I guess that also exists in nexus 4?
Oh wait... just realized that there is no external sdcard in nexus 4
So... I guess if you do that you would have to use "adb" to push recovery and a flashable ROM... does that make sense to you?
Or you could try to just format /system!
I would recommend following this guide on how to install the factory image. It will restore everything, including the bootloader, but you can just unlock it again afterwards. Or just not flash the bootloader image.
