all 3 restores successful!!
Boot
System (phew! )
Recovery

ok, having s-on, means that even if recovery says successful on boot.img it still can not flash the boot.img

now choose

reboot

bootloader

and

fastboot flash boot 4.1.2_k2clboot.img

then

fastboot reboot

you will now have stock out of the box (updated)OS and you can keep the twrp.img installed on your device, it won't affect the activating.

once booted into the OS

adb reboot bootloader

choose recovery from the screen and make a new backup right away before changing anything in the system

name it 4.1.2_pure_stock

then you can delete ALL the other backups

and you have a safety net if anything goes wrong in the future

crap, I think you need the cache inside the backup folder

cache.ext4.win

just copy and past this into that folder

wipe

system
cache
data

then restore

Sorry for being dumb.. how do I do that since it is not mounting the sd cards as you may remember we copied only in normal bootup mode

I'll post links when finished uploading

I have an idea ; luckily I saved another full backup ( on ext sd) before we started this operation ; I can restore, boot up in normal copy file and then restore our modified backup...
what do you think?

sorry for asking you to delete

only replace the system.ext4.win
and delete the md5

leave all others intact

so sorry, for the delete advisement last time

 

[russellvone]

if all else fails

this is a ics stock ROM that cab be flashed through recovery

4.0.4_STOCK.ROM.zip

OR

this is a stock ICS backup that can be placed in your twrp folder and restored

4.0.4_PURE_STOCK_ICS.zip

 

[madnanh0501]

yes, yes yes

good news... phone is restored to the original state !
however i learned something which proves that your point is correct. when i restored without wiping date/cache/system it again got stuck in startup screen but when i did wipe then it restored successfully.
starting cache.ext4.win copy.. now...
