This is your key to making your phone stock. Download the file, plug your Transform into your computer and mount the SD card. Copy/cut the full_restore_stock.zip and put it into 'sdx', and then into the child folder 'zip'. (Also known as /sdcard/sdx/zip) Disconnect your phone and reboot your phone into recovery mode via 'Quick Boot' or manually by turning off your phone and then booting into recovery mode.(Volume down, voice button, power button)
Note. You can just download the file from your phone and put it into the sdx zip folder via a file manager.
Open the console in recovery mode. Press enter and then type 'rfs'. Your phone with say 'Success to format' about 3 times and then boot back into recovery mode. Now go to 'Apply zip from SD card' and apply your file full_restore_stock.zip (Menu, then home to confirm) Now go back to your menu and reboot to system. You will now have a totally stock phone. No custom recovery, root access, or modifications of any kind.
All credit for this goes to Vampirefo on SDX. I just wrote this guide.

So then what happens if I restart my phone when I type rfs accidentally or if my zip is corrupted?
If your zip is corrupted? Unlikely, and your phone would still boot into recovery thus you could still fix it. Same with typing rfs, it would boot to system and probably work for like a day and then you'd have to boot into recovery and fix it. Your just about fool proof.
I haven't done anything. I bought this phone used a few days ago, and this icon was on it. But I need to take it into Sprint for repairs and need that icon off first.

The guy you bought it from must have rooted it but was stupid enough to not install custom recovery along with it. You're gonna have to flash back to stock the natural way, but doing this can dangerous if you don't pay attention.
I already posted this on your thread... But since you havn't looked at it here it is.
Download and install the SW Updater Free File Hosting, Online Storage & File Upload with FileServe (86,252 KB). This will require you to reboot your computer after it is installed.
2. Download the Kernel/Recovery file SPH-M920_MR1_DI11A_REL.tar.md5
3. Navigate to c:\Program Files\Samsung Electronic\SWUpgrade\Models\Binary and delete EVERYTHING inside of this folder.
Note that in 64bit versions of Windows, you need to be in c:\Program Files (x86)\Samsung Electronic\SWUpgrade\Models\Binary
4. Run SWUpdater and follow it's instructions

Bump, I need a reply to this since the update for 2.2 is right around the corner. Is there another way I can apply this zip without typing rfs?
Vampirefo made this only with the ability to flash rfs. Also it was smart because if you did something like ext4 it wouldn't be stock and probably would screw up your phone if you did the 2.2 update, if thats what you were wondering. As it stands now this is the only way to do it unless you want to use SWUpdater and all of that stuff.
Hes not worried about the file system rfs he just cant get it to take the command.
Use SW updater and flash stock rom. Flashing back to stock.
Although i wouldnt do it yet, not until its officially out.

Exactly, but I can't use SWupdater, which is why I came here.
Howd u root in the first place than? Lol.
Well that might be your problem, after u press enter, than type rfs it should say something, im guessing what u saw,than after like a min at most itll say "sucess to format", itll say this three times each time will be on a different command line.
If u see this than it means it worked, so try again but give it a min before u exit.

Wouldn't I need admin rights to install it? I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have those at a public place.
I don't exactly um... Abide by those rules. For every will there is a way. Internet cafes usually let you download whatever you need to as long as you don't clutter up their computers too much. Best thing to do would be to do that or use a PC from someone you know.
vampirefo told me that if you're using anything other than the RFS filesystem (like ext) then you type rfs, otherwise, you don't need to.
I didn't install ext on my transform so I just went ahead and applied the zip. I now have a stock phone and none of my apps were actually deleted (but Superuser is still on there and without root I can't get it off).
I have Vampirefo's 2.7 kernel and FroyoRC2. I want to go back to stock to get the 2.2 update and then reroot my phone. Should I do it with the zip file or is Swupdater and flash the tar file?
Awesome. Ok, I'm in recovery, and stupid question, how do I open the console? Sorry if I seem to need to be walked through it. I only see the 4 options. I don't know where to type in the rfs.
Ok, I'm in stock. My problem is that I deleted the Email app a month ago. The phone won't update to froyo without it. That's why I want to reflash to stock. How can I do that? Is there any way to just get the email app back?

do i need to reformat to rfs before i put full_restore_stock.zip on? Im currently ext4
Update: figureed it out. but have another question, can I flash vampirefos 2.7 kernel back on? or does he have another one available for the official 2.2?

There's another one out but I believe you have to go from 2.7 kernel to 2.0.8 kernel. But this is for the unofficial froyo that had a problem with auto rotation.
If you guys want to go to Froyo without flashing stock, make sure you apply Vampirefo's kernel and recovery with the update. Check SDX for info on how to do this.
You must not be doing something right, it shouldn't be accessing sdcard/update.zip
However, you can download the update.zip from sdx and try placing that on your sdcard
