[Q] flashing back to stock.

hey everyone
im flashing my phone back to stock in order to flash a new custom rom (themidteam 1.1) and i must start from GB or ICS based on LP5, now, as the rom im using is not based on LP5, i have to flash back to GB and start all over agine, now, my question is, how to flash the stock rom? do i simply flash it using odin? or there are other proccess?
and is there anyway to make my ICS rom (midnote 2.0) which is based on LP1, based on LP5?
sorry for these noob questions
and thanks

Yes Odin is the way
Flash stock GB (or one of the pre rooted stock GB) using Odin, get CF Root for that ROM and then follow the flashing procedure described in the OP of tue ROM you want to flash

Yes Abyss Kernel is a GB kernel, you can flash it on rooted GB ROMs and even keep it if you like it
After you flash ICS ROM (or restore an ICS backup) Abyss kernel will be over written by the kernel provided in the ROM zip (or backup zip)

Revert Back to GB from PARANDROID v5

Guys please guide me how to revert back to GB from Parandroid v 0.5 (CM9 based ROM) as I again want to flash Stock ICS ROM. I am missing S-Note very much. My Baseband is DDLK1 (Indian ROM). Can I use directly PC Odin to flash GB stock ROM. Previously i flash rootable GB rom, rooted using Dr. Ketans guide and flash Parandroid v0.5 through CWM 5.5.04. Please help.

Since you are on an ICS ROM, just ensure that your kernel is safe. I would suggest as you rightly said to revert back to GB & then flash an ICS ROM. You can use pC Odin for the same. You only need to follow Dr. Ketan's Guide for the same. Just check his signature for the link. Dont forget to Thank him.

Easiest and Safest way to return to stock

Currently running Ultimate N700 XXLSC JellyBean 4.1.2 v5.1 and baseband N7000XXLSC and Kernal Version 3.0.31-593490. I want to return it to stock as I can't use Sky Go. Do I need to downgrade to ICS or GB? any links to files would be great trying to do this whilst sat at my desk at work today so can't spend alot of time searching the forums

you can download the stock ICS firmware from samfirmware.com and install it using PC odin. (dont do any wipes while on stock ICS kernel. )
after install using Odin you might need to do a factory reset to get the phone to boot properly.. that time install Philz kernel for the ICS rom you chose using stock recovery/

Should I not download a Gingerbread stock rom 1st and then upgrade to ICS via OTA?

Not necessary but possible. Downloading and using a ICS-based stock Rom saves a bit of time and work.
But for SkyGo (in UK) you have to stay with the unchanged stock - or SkyGo won't work.

A help for noob in rooting and flashing ROMS.

I have stock ICS 4.0.4 rom and I would like to have step.by step instructions how to root and install latest Jelly Bean firmware 4.1.2 because I'm new in this stuff so a little bit of explantion of kernels, flashing roms and backing up apps would be really great.
Thank you for your answers.

How to use odin: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
You can install a JB leak XXLSA (not the latest) by downloading it from samfirmware.com and flash it via odin
Latest is XXLSC and there are odin flashable files in Android dev and general section as well.
If you want to go about installing custom roms then .. to root use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901191 (instructions included and safe)

What kernel do you have? by the way there is official JB now
You can use PC odin to install ICS stock.. but will beed wipes before that so make sure you have safe kernel ..

I have philz kernel. So can i just flash stock ICS rom over jb rom?

if you have philz kernel.. first boot into recovery and .. then Philz settings > clean before new rom install...
once done.. choose advanced and reboot download
this will put the phone in download mode.. connect to pc and flash rom using odin

Ok thanks i will try

Ok.. by the way there is official JB now.. why you going to ICS?

Maybe I'm or i just I don't know something but you say I can just flash official firmware over leaked version yes?

yes. but its recommended to perform wipes
