If you have installed voodoo before, please follow the instructions here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=804784 before attempting to restore back to stock odin files
ONLY FLASH ONE OF THESE AT A TIME. START WITH THE /SYSTEM ODIN AND WORK YOUR WAY DOWN THE LIST IF NEEDED.
Hey guys, after some reading and bricking one device beyond my repair, i have created a file to restore /system back to stock, with su, superuser and busybox already installed.
THIS SHOULD ONLY BE USED TO RESTORE TO STOCK AFTER A COMPLETE FUBAR! I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT YOU FLASH TO YOUR PHONE!
You need the samsung drivers for windows for this to work. Those can be found on this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=779238
This has been tested and verified. I signed with md5 and odin reads the md5 signature as it should.
Steps:
1. Pull battery from device
2. Open odin on desktop
3. Hold volume down button and plug device into computer
-This will place the device into download mode
4. Verify device shows up in odin
5. Click "PDA" button in odin
6. Select "Stock-i500-VZW-System.tar.md5" from where you downloaded it
7. Click "Start"
8. Enjoy your fixed /system partition!

Big thanks to lilinser / dkcldark; koush; humancyborg, namebrandon, geeknik, and many others that were testing and constantly flashing their phones!
And without ludeboy, well, i wouldnt even be able to get into download mode to fix my phone in the first place
Changelog:
9/17/2010- Updated links, fixed md5 errors on files
9/15/2010: Added an odin restore file for the kernel and recovery now that sources are out. This should be used to restore the kernel if you try flashing another one. To those having problems, reboot into recovery (power off device, hold both volume buttons and power until samsung logo, release power button, recovery should boot) and wipe data and cache.
