i need help guys i rooted my phone and then my speaker phone blew out and is no longer working i need to return the phone so i was hoping i could get stock files for the phone to revert it to stock
Go to the dev section and find the sticky for Odin 1 click. That will revert your phone back to stock JF6. Read the sticky, it will tell you everything.
aright ill see how it goes thanks

I have a Samsung Captivate, and installed froyo 2.2 not knowing such stuff like rooting and roms and after that i installed this so called gingerbread.
I want to remove it now and i just want to stick to froyo cognition but i cant seem to get rid of it. I could use all the help id theres anyone out there has been in the same situation as me.
thank you in advance
You can use the Odin 1-click utility found somewhere on these forums (stickied either at the top of the general forums or development forums) to revert your Captivate to stock, and then flash the most recent Cognition from there.
EDIT: Here's the Odin 1-click utility: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989
Note that using Odin will revert you COMPLETELY TO STOCK, including the wipe of all of your files on the phone, contacts (unless saved to sim), etc, etc. There are probably other ways to do it, but Odin is fool-proof and surefire.
JUst FYI i have tried the Master reset by ODIN3 and still doesnt go away. in droid explorer ,my phone is showing an ID as I8971cee92B6 thats an HTC phone

The solution that I linked above should work to restore your phone completely to stock; if you've done that and it hasn't worked, I'm out of my league.
i appreciate the fast reply but isnt this ODIN 3, even though i know you said ODIN1??? Im just confuse
Thanks snapple fish i actually checked it and it does show the earlier build on this ODIN. i appreciate your HELP
Hi everyone
I am a noob so be nice to me. I accidently cracked the screen on my Samsung Vibrant and so have a few questions about how to return the phone back to Stock/unrooted (just like befor i flashed). I am fine if i have to lose my contacts, apps. ect...
Background:
I rooted my phone with One-Click-Root/Unroot from XDA (loved it). I then flashed the latest Nero 5.0 ROM from Team Wiskey (Love it). As part of either the root or flashing the ROM(i can't remember which one), I downloaded "ROM Manager" with CWR.
Q #1: Is it as easy returning to stock ROM as just using "Flashing ClockworkMod Recovery" or should I have used "nandroid" (don't know what it does, but I see it talked about) also?
Q #2: I hear people say that you need Odin to return back to stock ROM, but then I hear that is ONLY if you don't have ROM Manager w/CWR. Do I need Odin or do I only need ROM Manager w/CWR?
Q #3: If all I need is ROM Manager w/CWR and it returnes back to what it was before i flashed, can i just us the "Unroot" button on the One-Click-Root/Unroot"?
Q #4(Last Question): Will I recieve OTA's if I have to us Odin and flash a stock ROM, how do I get back to stock and recieveing OTA's?
I understand that there are alot of posts asking how to return to stock but that is from people where something in the programs went wrong when trying to return to stock. I am just wondering what programs (other than ROM Manager and CWR) are need for me to return to stock? Please help, I don't want my phone to be rejected because my warranty is void. Thanks

All thats needed to return to stock is a Nandroid backup of your original ROM.
Oh wait.....
Why do people totally fail at this?
What you need now is an original ROM for your device and then flash it from recovery.
So in other words, I need to download a 2.1 Rom (last version i had) from somewhere back on to my computer and then do the same things that i did to flash Nero 5? Is that where Odin comes in? OR, would CWR already have that ROM and everything all in one package?
Like I said, I am a nook. I am suprised that i didnt brick my phone rooting and flashing a ROM the first time. I may be pushing my luck going back to stock. But, it needs to be done if i want my phone fixed.
I would have a look HERE, in the Samsung Vibrant forum. I'm sure you'll find an Official ROM to Flash somewhere in there.
You would just put the .zip on your SD card, restart to Recovery and select the option to Flash from SD
Okay, i am getting it now. However, wont the "Update.zip" (Nero 5.0) be there on my SD memory already? Will i damage my phone if i delete the "Update.zip" and put in the Stock.zip (then do the recovery thing)? So once i get the Stock ROM uploaded on my phone, can i just use the one-click-unroot (from XDA) to have my phone be unrooted and new just like it was when i bought the phone? Will i get OTA's?
Thank you for your help, i am sorry for bugging you but i feel like i am starting to understand it more. These are probably the last questions that i have....probably
I read on another thread here on this site and was going to ask this question there but since I don't have enough posts.
I know how to Use ODIN to flash my Samsung Epic back to stock. However, I have upgraded to 2.2 by placing the update.zip file on the root memory card and upgraded by booting into recovery mode.
My question is can I use Odin to flash it back to stock or will it screw something up?
Oh well
since no one knows the answer I guess I will just try and see if it screws up my phone..
You need to get a special version of Odin called "One Click to Stock". It's been specially modified to flash a stock AT&T ROM to your phone with (as expected) just one click.
thank you
I appreciate the response. I used the standard ODIN, PIT and TAR files and was able to return to stock with the latest release. It seems to have worked because it downloaded updates immediately. Thank you again for the response.
I need to return this phone. Bad pixles. I have unrooted it and restored the stock 2.2 rom nandroid. But this phone was shipped with gingerbread. I can't get it to update using the LG software. It says my software is up to date. So I guess I have to root again and flash the stock gb. Will someone help me locate stock gb zips or nandroids?
you have to do some trick with that lg updater to get it to work. Atleast, I had to. If i can find those steps I'll posted.
try this: unless you found a gb zip..

or here are the zip files..

I havent looked but I am sure there is a nandroid or.zip of stock GB in the dev section. If not I just returned my phone to stock because I got a new one and I just wanted to mess around so went to my original GB from befor I played witht the phone and did a factory reset then made a nandroid copy of that on my old phone because the new one was used and the person had someone else do the rooting and flashing for him and they never made a backup of the original. So I took the nandroid backup from my old phone and restored it on the newer one and it worked perfectly. So If you need and it is allowed I can post the copy of that nandroid backup and that should work I think.
Note I am not an expert so if anyone knows better please chime in. But I think that should be okay to send back for warenty exchange. Unless they really look they wont know the difference. I'm sure that they can always tell if they try jhard enough. So when you are on the phone with them make sure you are polite and dont lose your temper for any reason because that will m ake them look harder for a reason not to help you. Thats just my advice. Good luck
You should flash the development section on your phone
Thanks. I cant seem to figure out how to flash those bin files
Now I've done it! I found this file 2x-v10b-1300166062-nvflash and flashed the "flash" app. Now my phone thinks its a p990. What have I done! How do I reverse this! It wont let me flash clockwork recovery anymore
HOT DAMN! I GOT IT! Finally found exactly what was looking for!

I was trying to flash a kernel that i found in a forum, i tried with Voodoo, my phone was already rooted. Then i heard a female robot voice saying something about "partition" and a process that was gonna take like ten min. From then, the google logo pops up and nothing will happen. i cant put it in download or recovery mode. now the robot voice isnt even saying anything basically just stuck on a google logo screen. I have no idea what to do. can someone please help me.
What kind of phone do you have? (Assuming Mesmerize or Showcase?) What version of Android are you on? If you come to (http://webchat.freenode.net/)(#samsung-mesmerize), it be easier to help you out. You'll need to Odin back to Stock before going forward to Voodoo lagfix.
I once biffed my phone up flashing an incapatible kernel and took it back to the store. They were happy to re-flash it for me. I also was not able.to get in recovery.
I simply told them I was trying to perform the 2.3.5 update which was listed on the site and something went wrong.
Just FYI, The voice was the kerenl enabling voodoo lag fix (a very good thing)!

Glitch kernal
I always used the glitch kernal on my mez. worked great for me. Comes loaded in the latest miui build.

Im having a problem with my Mesmerize, and I think this could help me out, but the link wont send me anywhere, can you help me out?
I think i can help u out.
K so if ur having any problems wit ur mesmerize, i'd recommend flashing back to stock rom.
Now to do this, your going to have to go to rootwiki and find the mesmerize forum.
Go to the first thread on the page, and there you can find a link to download Odin 3.1, Eh09 and Eh20 radios, and CWM 4.
To find the stock roms, theres another thread on rootzwiki that has the official USCC stock froyo and gingerbread roms.
With those downloaded, ur just gonna want to flash them on ur phone through odin. Plug phone into computer while holding the down volume the get the phone into downloading mode. Import the two files and there you have it.
Hope this solves ur problem
Blah
This phone is annoying me. Lol.
