Hi there,
I've had the galaxy s2 for about 24 hours and am very impressed with it.
I've rooted the device and had over clocked to 1.54ghz was getting scores of 4,000 plus on quadrant.
I wanted to look at some custom ROMS, so have installed the villain release. However, I think I've done something wrong somewhere, as the phone feels slower and the quadrant scores are 50% of what they were as stock (i'm sure this is down to me and not the ROM, not meaning to cast doubt on an awesome piece of work)
I'd like to return the phone completely to stock, so I wiped the user data in recovery mode and tried to reinstall the stock firmware, but the device is now stuck in a loop?
Any advice on how I can get my device back to stock?
Thanks for your time.
Buckley.
You need the read the VillianRom thread on the development section. It explains how to return to stock properly there.

Yep. It's fairly simple. Did you install XWKE7 CF-Root kernel though? You should do that after installing.
To revert to stock,
turn off phone
hold volume up, home, power to enter recovery. Wipe data partition
Hold power to turn off phone
Open ODIN and enter download mode, flash stock ROM
should work fine
Whoops no I didn't the root kernel...
I know i'm just embarrassing myself now, but do you have a link to the file?
I followed the steps you mentioned to take the handset back to stock..
Gathered I should have been installing this...
I9100BUKE1_I9100BUKE1_I9100VODKE2.TAR?
That's when it started looping..
Looks like I have a lot of reading up to do ha..
Thanks for the quick replies..
I have installed the kernel as suggested.
Sorry to be pain but can anyone supply a link to a stock rom, i'm on vodaphone uk?
I have searched and can't find one, thanks..

Just use an unbranded one from intratech's thread.
For CF-Root kernel, just go to the dev forum and search "CF-Root" and get the XWKE7 one
and Pulser has a sticky for this

Finally Found A Way To Unbrick The Tab, Which Requires Mainboard Replacement!
As You Know, If You Have Installed Wrong TWPR Recovery On 4.2 Update, And By Accident Have Erased Recovery Partition, Then You Would Have A HARD-Bricked Tab Which Showed: "Unrecoverable Bootloader Error"
In This State, Asus Support Center Required You To Pay (As You Are Unlocked) To Replace The Mainboard!!!
Finally, One Of Our Friends Found A Solution, Here Is The Link, I Just Wanted To Spread The Word...
It Saved My TF300T, Which Has Been Turned Off For 6 Months!
Here Is The Link, Just Be Patient And You Will Recover Your Tablet

it could easily recover my tab, which was supposed to be sent to Asus next week
it's a milestone, greatly helped...
wow. my post seemed to be the phoenix essence for al lot of tabs (without the need to burn something down)
After Reading it again - my solution is not only for a bad recovery partition - its for any PIT related errors (bad flash - which was my case) etc.

wrong recovery can always be flashed with another one if fastboot works.
if only recovery is your problem no need to go back to stock. but on most cases it's the best way to get a clean start.

what if you can't get into recovery and only APX?
I tried installing CWM (for CM11) over an 2.6.0.0 TWRP (4.2) with 10.6.15.3 and no go!
I'm stuck with APX only.
Any ideas? I've tried NVFLASH but can't fix 64bit drivers that work properly. Naked 0.73 didn't either. I can only get the Asus Transformer Prime APX to work properly.

are you sure its apx?
also for cm11 based roms for the tf300t you need a special recovery (check the omnirom thread - thats the one im using, scannos twrp 2.6.3.0)
you cant run cm11 with older recovs since the PITs changed apparently (haven't read the man pages yet) but thats what i understood out of the omni thread
nvfalsh only works if you backed up your device prior bricking.

So it is a really good idea to backup your device prior to bricking it , to backup your device, use flatline (google it. sorry for not providing the link, this forum does not allow me to post links yet)

As far as I can tell Vol+ gets me the black screen and recognized as a device in Windows 7 x64 as an ASUS APX Interface. I tried replacing the driver with every combination of NVIDIA, Google, Android SDK, Naked .72/.73 and no go. I've also tried ADB drivers and no luck there either.
Vol- doesn't bring up anything - screen just stays at ASUS logo. I dont get the recovery menu and can't get into TWRP (original) or CWM (after attempting to install). My mistake for not just sticking with TWRP (previously on 2.6.0.0) and using the scannos version.
It basically gets to the Device is Unlock, ASUS and NVIDIA logo and doesn't proceed further.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
with the logos are there also 3(or 4) icons?

neither - i dont ever get to that.
Same here - stuck at the first ASUS logo - in the left corner "the device is unlocked" and right corner the Nvidia logo.
Vol+ and power or Vol- and power - no effect.
I flashed an old recovery using adb commands in a newer twrp so is there any way to fix this?????

My son in law just gave me his K1. He got a new Google Nexus. I have successfully rooted my Verizon SGS3 by reading the threads here on XDA and I am happy with that. Now here's my problem. The K1 is a WiFi version running stock 3.2.1. I want to root and load a custom ROM. My main use for this K1 will be streaming video from Wifi to HDTV using HDMI , streaming audio from Wifi to Bluetooth speakers, and using Google video chat over Wifi. After reading through Khanning, Krook1, and Kaschemme threads I am not quite sure where I should start. I would like to use the latest from Kaschemme but I sure not sure if it would be best for uses. Thanks much in advance for any input/guidance.

I've decided to go ahead and nvflash cm10.1 wifi kaschemme, then flash his latest 10.1.3 release, and finish by flashing gapps jb 20130424 nonneon. Does this sound right?? I hope so. I wish I could get this post moved to Kaschemme's thread. I am a noob and could not start it there. Thanks again to XDADevs for being here. It is a great resource.
12/17/2013
Change of plan!! I am noob so after more reading and digesting I see that the CM ROM's may have problems with both Bluetooth and WiFi. Therefore I am going to start with the latest khanning K1_JB_AOSP nflash and work my way from there. Wish me luck. I hope to pull the trigger today or tomorrow.

CM 10, both Krooks and Kashemme had working Bluetooth and HDMI. That ended with CM 10.1. I WOULD RECCOMMEND kACSHEEMES cm10 you can use his NV flash to run the root and install the recovery. Don't use the non neon gapps with CM 10, you can use the Rootzwiki GAPPS. The other reason to use the Kaschemme is that he is still kind of around.

I have already flashed Khanning's latest JB AOSP. Can I now simply put Kacshemme's CWM cm10 zip on my extcd and flash it over Khanning's.Should I back up app my apps with TB and restore or can I just flash w/o a wipe. I have also made an android back up of what I got to my extcd. Thanks again for the help.
Sorry I reread both Krook and Kaschemme and I see I do have to go the nFlash route again. No problem. I am curious though. If I use TB to back up all my apps to my extcd can I just then restore them once I get TB reinstalled?
Got it to quote you - "That is not common, i have been running it since September on 4 different k1 tablets an there are no issues. Are you doing a clean flash? Are you using the Neon GAPPS in the OP? I also reflash gapps every time i do an update."
K1 nFlashed K1-WIFI_CM10_JB_07052013
Jerry/anyone,
I nflashed Kaschemme's CM10 in title to replace khanning K1_JB_AOSP and flashed signed gapps-jb-20122111. I really like the ROM but I have a major problem and some general questions. I now have CWM v6.0.2.8 w/ android 4.1.2 and kernel version 2.6.39.4. My major problem is that I have no audio feed with the HDMI. The video is good no audio!!! It worked with JB_AOSP! This is no good I use the K1 to stream NetFlex to HDTV. The audio comes across the K1 speakers, ear buds but no HDMI. Any thoughts help???? Do I need to go back?? Also I thought this ROM provided the option to overclock to 1.4. I can't find this option. Max I can pick is 1.0?? Any and all help is needed and appreciated. Thanks to all and Merry Christmas.
Flashed Kaschemme CM 10.1.3 w/ CWM
OK I decided I can live w/o BT so.........................I used CWM to wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, wipe dalvik cache , flashed CM10.1.3 zip booted up and let things settle down. I rebooted into recovery and flashed the nonneon gapps. Rebooted and logged into my google account. Downloaded TiBU and batch reinstalled missing apps. All went very well and I am happy. I only needed to download a couple apps from the play store. I OC set at min 456 max 1400 and using interactive governor. I have good WiFi, good HDMI, good head phone and video streaming to HDTV. I see my CWM was also updated. So far this is a great performing ROM. Thanks to all and especially Kaschemme for his hard work. Merry Christmas to all. BTW I got 10,501 AnTuTu. Good enough for this ole retired guy
Requesting for ROMs and Drivers for K1
Hello! I am just wondering if you have still saved the other ROMs for this K1, and drivers if in case. I am facing a serious issue on my K1, I just got stuck on APX mode whether I press the vol + and - with power or don't press the 2 volume keys I always get into APX mode. Actually this is the 2nd time it happened to me, but now no luck it has been for todays already. Hope you can help me send all your things (ROMs and drivers) for K1 and I will try to revive my device. Cheers! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

I came from stock. Just follow the directions on kaschemm's thread. You can get the download from here http://goo.im/devs/kaschemme. You need to download the nvFlash to your pc and run it from there to get root and cwm recovery. If I if remember right the nonneon gapps link is in the thread and you flash that from recovery. Hope this helps. Good luck.
I wanted to start a new thread since i havent had any luck finding an answer to my question. Basically i need to know how can i unroot my LG G2 LS980 from Sprint. I just want it back to stock. I have tried a few ways (threads in the forums) but after trying fro a few mins they dont seem to work. then when i go to the end of the thread it says these way no longer works. The last one i tried made me download firmware and use the LG Flash tool and change the megalock.dll but after checking all the settings and launching the tool it just sits at 0% forever. I even tried the turn off and put back on download mode again while not closing the tool and it still does the same.
my phone is still on stock recovery, running android 4.2.2 and software version LS980ZV8
I tried doing the OTA that pops up on my phone every other day but it fails to update halfway thru it. Now i want kitkat and i cant update it. I guess worse case i would like to flash a stock rom with kitkat (stock) and still keep it rooted but my issue is im still stuck on ZV8
Well you can easily unroot from inside supersu but if you have modified any part of the system/xposed/removed bloat you will not be able to update unless you flash back to stock

that isn't going to work, you are supposed to make at least 10 helpful post in which you well obviously help someone
Honestly the only help I can give you since I'm using an AT&T version is this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lg693AYgoTo
I know it's for AT&T but for AT&T and Sprint you use the same method to flash. You just have to replace the .tot and .dll for your sprint phone, because the ones included are for the AT&T version. Other than that the steps are the same.
PS the Development forums are not for Q&A, it's for development and feedback (Like logcats and bug fixes, etc).

After installing Android 4.4.2 onto my Razr M (183.46.10.XT907.Verizon.en.US), whenever a sound is played after a period of silence. The
speaker makes a popping noise. This isnt too major of an issue, but I am wondering if it may be a simple setting issue or a problem with the update? Either way is there a known workaround to an issue like this?
I tried KitKat last night and had this even when my phone was on complete silent, It didn't matter if I played anything or not. I also noticed when I was texting someone if I left it open in their text when they replied it would do it also. Another thing for me was the volume lowers itself when playing music (Pandora/Google Play). I turned off the EQ, thinking it might be that, but it didn't do anything. I don't know if that is a feature of KitKat couldn't find anything on it, but I'm back on JB for now.

I have this issue too and would really like a fix. I don't think a factory reset would help. When i plug headphones in, the popping stops completely.
Yeah ditto. No biggie but they definitely have a bug that submits noise to the speaker.

Every time there's sound, the popping happens. If I play a song, before the song starts playing it starts popping. I think it's more than just noise being submitted because of touch input.
Well after no official response for a few days here, I've contacted Motorola customer support to see if they
Possibly told the low level support about a potential fix. Unfortunately no luck.
The interesting thing is that my family all use the RAZR m and all 3 phones have one form or another of the speaker issue.
I am still in warranty and have been offered to send it in for replacement/repair.
Thoughts? I am not sure if replacing the phone(s) will do any good.

I doubt replacing it will do anything unless you can somehow get the unlocked developers' version. This seems to be an issue with the rom, not the phone itself.

Funnily enough I decided to try replacing it and the phone arrived the day this message was posted. The replacement did solve the issue... mostly.
I hear a faint two click/pops on sounds but they are so faint that you can only hear them in a quiet place with your full attention.

How did you get back to JB? I made the OTA Update from Stock JB and would like to flash back to JB somehow.
I have an unlocked bootloader, and downloaded the JB (98.30.1.XT907) sbf file. I had to edit some lines out the .xml (found the instruction in another post) and used RSDlite to flash back. If you're locked I have no idea if you can go back.
Fix for unlocked bootloader only!

Code:
fastboot flash boot bootXT926speakerfix.img
or
Code:
fastboot flash boot bootXT907speakerfix.img
Please note that I don't own xt926 nor xt907, so I can't verify that the boot images boot at all, nor that they actually fix the issue.
(xt897 haven't got an official kitkat update yet, and it's possible that it won't happen for Photon Q at all.)
Be prepared to flash the stock kitkat boot.img in case of a failure if you're going to test this. You've been warned.
Please let me know how it works for you, thanks.
EDIT: links updated to correctly re-packed boot images.
xt926 boot image already confirmed to boot fine and fix the issue (by iBolski).
XT907 boots fine and also seems to fix the issue.

Sorry, I have no idea what flashify app is and does. I'm used to do the flashing from command line.
The boot images linked here are only for the stock 4.4 ROM.
The issue will be fixed directly in the CM11/razrqcom motorola msm8960dt-common kernel in the future.
See my post about it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=53614821
Odd thing, is my black RAZR M whose manufacture date was sometime in 2012 didn't have this problem at all. No popping whatsoever. However, my white one with manufacture date sometime around 5/2013 did have this problem. Makes me wonder if the hardware was updated in some minor way.
kabaldan, thank you so much this really seems to work. Great work. that popping sound was getting on my last nerve I even un installed solitary because every time I taped a card the phone made a popping sound very annoying. You fixed my phone thanks bro.

Quick question kabaldan, ppl are making claims to battery life and wifi etc, in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=53614821#post53614821. That bit in the commit you posted, that's the only thing you changed right?
@kabaldan Hi, i had this same problem with my razr i XT890, could you make a fix for he too?
Thx
