Did you do a Nandroid backup with CWM before you flashed ICS? If you did then just do a restore. It worked for me. I had backed up CM7 before I flashed ICS. I had to go back to CM7 before I could flash a different ICS Rom.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
Think you need to odin first. Since stock runs on different partition.

No...not nandroid ..i use Titanium ..so didnt do nandroid..
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nron22:
You will have to figure out how to get your phone in download mode before Odin or ham. Will work to recover your phone. If you have flashed a different boot loader to your phone the button combo may have changed.

Default combo is hold up+down+ power. Other ones I've come across is down+ power for download mode.

Otherwise I would suggest a USB jig to get download mode quickly.

Once you have that then using Odin PDA slot with a stock froyo image should work.

Recovery Mode: Hold Vol + Up and Press Power Button

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bravomail:
I can vouch for Captivate:

Hold Vol up and down. Press power and keep it on til white AT&T splash screen appears. Keep holding Vol Up and Down until CWM Recovery shows.

The same sequence for download but instead of Power On use USB cable insert into phone. Download appear much faster.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BloodSkin:
your options are to either order a jig, send it out to josh, or

pull your battery

put it back in

do NOT turn on phone

hold volume up AND down at the same time

while holding both buttons insert the usb cable

continue to hold both volume buttons and wait for up to 10 seconds for download mode to activate

Guys,

I need some clarification. Im currently on GB but want to try ICS. I made a Nandroid backup of my phone. Now, if I wnat to downgrade from ICS to GB I can just restore the Nandroid? Or do I need first to go back to GB?

Can you guys give me the steps for this? OR will a simple Odin1click work to get me back to GB.

Thanks in advance and sorry if this was answered before, Im just a bit confused about the process.

Thank you! Will the Odin 1 Click without bootloaders not work? Seems simple enough. guess Ill try ICS soon.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
Heimdall or ODIN will work. If odin make sure its a package without bootloaders. Either way you should be golden.

Hi,

I own a HTC Sensation XE and I use the ARHD v6.51 ROM with ICS v4.0.3. Before this device I have used a HTC Desire HD with Gingerbread v2.35. The HTC Keyboard with Gingerbread contained Arrow-Keys below the spacebar - the new ICS Keyboard does not have this four keys.

Is there any chance to get the old Gingerbread-Keyboard to work? Most important is that I want to use the HTC Keyboard, no other solution.

Thanks!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] k0zmic:
Unlikely that it will work. I haven't see any like that for ICS.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] synaesthetic:
The HTC IME mod will work in ICS (tested this) but it has no arrow keys.

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] SkaBob:
Well hi! I've had my a100 since Christmas and I've been loving it (other than the planner thinking no US cities exist), and until last week I've been using it to watch stuff all the the time on netflix while I'm gaming.

Last weekend I woke up and there was a force close error from the market app. I tried to report it and it said there was no space left on the device. Odd, since my internal and external sd both have a couple gigs free. Ever since then, it's impossible to watch anything on netflix. The sound is fine, but the video is insanely choppy. Barely 3 - 5fps. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling netflix with no effect. My tablet is totally stock. Not even rooted.

Anyone got any suggestions or thoughts on this? I'd really like to get it working again, but I don't even know where to begin. The cause and the symptoms don't make sense together. Is there there some other app I can check updates on that netflix uses for its streaming?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] jakob95:
Some things you can try.

1st: Update to the leaked ICS and see if that fixes your problem.

2nd: Backup all your apps into your SD card with Titanium Backup, and then do a factory reset and see if that works.(needs root)

I just got a Samsung Infuse but it really starts to piss me off. In fact when i'm indoors the Signal do not move further than two bars in the best cases. and The WiFi signal is completely lost when I move like 5 meters away. Sometimes even near the Router I have only one bar.

So the question is, should I flash my modem? Or Maybe install a whole new kernel/ROM?

Honestly, after months of testing roms and battery life, I'll tell you that the differences in your battery life is on how you use your phone. Here are some tips to get some better battery life:

1) lower screen brightness

2) underclock processor/voltage (slows overall functionality but saves battery)

3) use wifi over 3g/4g

4) turn off 4g

There's always something you need to sacrifice for better battery life. Some roms offer all or some of these "tweaks."
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] doug36:
Pretty close allow me to reword:

1.) Disable automatic brightness and lower..

2.) Dont use OC kernels or ones with stock speeds on boot and perhaps if needed use UV scripts if applicable

3.) Only use WIFI/DATA when needed and dont enable both simultaneously

4.) 4 is merged with 3 but heres a new 1, dont use taskmanagers

Find a lighter launcher aswell helps.. theres way to many lol we could go on all day xD

kernel panic upload mode

I was flashing custom ROMS from couple of months and did dozens of times.

But when I was flashing resurrection ROM an updated version, it completed but when I rebooted it was stuck in the kernel panic upload mode after the boot screen(galaxy s2). It was not going to clockworkmod recovery too. Then using the odin I tried to flash the stock ROM as well as custom ones. But it will finish, will stuck in the boot screen. Then flashed recovery using Odin and tried to flash custom roms. Couple of ROMS worked but most of them failed and stuck in the boot screen. I could able to restore the stock version which I saved previously.

But I cant try most of the ROMs now. CM9 didnt work.. But MIUI worked.

Hayelp --- STUCK in KERNEL PANIC UPLOAD MODE

OK, so I did a stupid thing. I decided to use ROM Manager to move from CYANOGENMOD 9 (earlyish variant) to MIUI 2.5.11.

(I'm usually fairly comfortable/confident/competent doing this kind of thing - never bricked anything before - PSP, Galaxy S, Experia min pro, etc...)

I told ROM Manager to backup the ROM, and set it off to do its thing.

Next thing I'm aware of is "KERNEL PANIC UPLOAD MODE" and the text [ RST_STAT = 0x20000000 ] in red in the top left hand corner of the screen.

I've searched the Fora and found some others with a similar issue, so I tried a few things.

1stly I tried to get into ClockwordModRecovery mode, but was unable to.

But I got into Odin upload mode, so I dug out Odin, and an XW ROM, tried to download them to the device. No joy, so I tried another Odin XX ROM - also no joy. (Following various guides as to which ROM to try, and how to do it). Currently the ODIN Mode says.

ODIN MODE

PRODUCT NAME: GT-i9100

Custom Binary Download: Yes (1 counts)

Current Binary: Samsung Official

...

I could flash a new ROM over the existing one(it doesn't seem as if I can now...) and am currently on (I believe) Kernel_I9100XWLP7.

OK, so what to do next...

Well I tried to get back into CWM (on, up volume and home) to get into something which looked like CWMRecovery, but only gave 4 (?) options - reboot now, install update from SD, wipe Cache, wipe data - the wipe data came up with a password required, which I don't know so backed out of.

Oh, I downloaded KIES 2.0 to see if that could help - not in this instance it can't...

Now I'm stuck, I will try some other ODIN ROMs as that seems to be the only point of attack left to me.

Can anyone suggest anything else to try?

Please?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZACQ8:
if your status is above while you enter into Download mod, you should be able to flash a stock ROM from the ODIN, provided you have followed the steps correctly.
