The reason why i will never flash a custom ROM on my SII

For some month's ago i had a Galaxy S Plus and i liked it, but i wanted to flash a custom ROM on it. So i updated it with Odin to the newest stock firmware, and i innstalled Clockworkmod so i could flash a custom ROM.
So i flashed the custom ROM (MoonRom) on it using AROMA innstaller and it went successfully. And i used the ROM for one day, and it was fast, and so on, and had a funny sound when u pressed on the dialer keypad, like a water drop sound
I liked the ROM, but i wanted it back to stock (warranty reasons) .So i put to phone into download mode and i used Odin + the pit file and flashed it back to stock firmware and wiped out and formatted everything on it using recovery mode.
And later i used the phone dialer, and the keypad sounds from the custom ROM was still there, after i reflashed it????
I was extremely confused i flashed a billion stock firmwares on there and that water drop sound when u tapped the dialer keypad was still there. I had formatted it and everything and it was still there after flashing back????
I know own a Galaxy S II, and i will never flash somethign custom on there i am afraid that if i do that and then reflash back. Something on the old rom will ble left.
After that i gave my mom the phone. And i was extremly confused...

Maybe the keypad sound is left on the sd card?

CWM won't always be able to wipe everything, on my phone it can't wipe the boot partition

Strange, but I wouldn't give up Roms just because of a water drop sound. To each his own.

Agree with the guy above me. Stock, the phone has way too much bloatware.

So do you know any way to get the keypad sounds back??? And also the keyboard sounds are also left from the custom ROM.

If you flashed back using Odin then its impossible that the sounds remain.
I can make you a flash package that should enable the stock samsung sounds if you really want it? You just have to tell me what firmware you will be running i.e. Gingerbread or ICS?

Hello I sold the phone to my mom, and she dont want me to play around with her phone. But thanks for suggestion
I made this post just to try sort things out why the old rom sounds is still there, and i used ODIN + the pit filed when i flashed the Galaxy S Plus.

User error. If you used odin, nothing will remain from a previous flash.

Flashing roms, tinkering, working out issues and resolving them, making device better is what XDA is about and where the enjoyments is, If you dont like that or dont have the aptitude, patience to learn why are you even here or have a Android device?
My suggestion is to get a Nokia 3310 or an iPhone, Or at least do not come here and bore us with stories about why you dont want to flash your phone.

It all depends on how you're flashing bro. If you're flashing via cwm, and then that's not increasing your flash counter. The only time the counter is increased is if you're flashing none official files via Odin.
The 1 in your flash count is probably from the initial flash of cwm via Odin when you first rooted your phone.

Google is your friend
It's a program that is used to reset your flash counter back to zero so Samsung won't be able to tell you flashed non official firmware on your phone at some point. Basically it comes in handy if you want to keep your warranty on your phone.

You didn't have superbrick probably soft brick wich its hell easy to fix about drivers you probably didn't even have them installed.. The port in Pc has nothing to do with unbricking.... And read hell lot more before you really damage your device you just got lucky

bricked is done ... Note gets bricked when you do a wipe over stock ICS Kernel ..
To my best knowledge we still do not have a way to recover your phone without sending it to Samsung Service Center...

Just like the endless attempts with S III, Kies in incapable of installing anything on any Samsung product on either my x86 Windows 7 machine, or my Windows x64 machine. Looks like I'll be waiting the 7 hours until the firmware is downloaded from hotfile and just go the odin rout.

Yeah, already checked. I went through about a week of this with my SII when the ICS update came out and eventually had to install it outside of Kies. I might give it a go a little later tonight with a fresh reboot on both machines, but I'm not holding my breath.

Hmm I didn't even think of that, Im pretty sure its off now that I think about it. Oh well I booted into Windows 8 so I can run Odin and revert back to stock 4.0.4 anyways. Ill just see if Kies functions better on this side of things hehehe.

I got the notification and tried it with Kies but I finally gave up. Either because I'm rooted or some other reason it just sits there at 0% and never does the update after the download. I tried it 4 times.

Well iv successfully updated to jelly bean using mobile odin which allowed me to keep root and cwm recovery :thumbup:

No the rom never updates your baseband so youll need to install that yourself!

Any clue as to why it went back to stock ROM after a reboot? Did I do something wrong or miss something?

Is your charger plugged in? Did the same thing for me and I unplugged and restarted again and it booted to the correct ROM slot.

Thank you
First off, thank you for making one thread to contain all the questions, second, thank you for the awesome rom. I have it installed with almost no problems. I have hangouts with sms and it will crash when switching conversations sometimes, not consistently though so I haven't submitted a bug report. Right now it works great.
