Question [Q] From ICS to GB

Hi, I intend to go back to my stock GB from stock ICS. I have currently rooted my ICS, do I install CWM on ICS and do a restore back to GB, or flash it back to GB first, install CWM and then restore? I have a locked bootloader. Thanks in advance.

If it was me (and I've done this a few times) I'd reflash GB using Flashtool and wipe everything. Backup your apps/data first using Titanium.

Make sure you use the .42 GB release though if you want root afterwards! You'll need to root using zergrush and you can install pvyparts CWM app from Google Play.

You could also try using Wotan instead of Flashtool if you have €2 spare. It's a simple enough process.

Hi, thanks for the reply. Do you have the link to the thread with .42 FTFs? I'm not too sure which to get.
