I need from one of u the sbl and boot file from the kd 1 build of android if at all possable. Thanks in advance. This also goes to anyone that hasnt flashed gb at all Pretty much from a pure virgin phone and or from a full backup heck ill even take the backup i got a idea but i need something not tampered with.
THanks n advance.
I've got a replacement phone due in on the UPS truck tomorrow.
Tell me what ya need and where to pull it from and I'll get it to you.
EDIT: For that matter, I can get ya the system.img file from my OTA KD1 now - it's was rooted and I had CWM, but it was my first Nand after getting CWM. I'll put it in dropbox and send you a link
What he's looking for is the boot.bin and sbl.bin files from a tar.md5 ROM file.
Give me a few...I might be able to extract that out of KD1.

Never mind. KD1's tar.md5 file doesn't have sbl or boot.bin
I'll have to pull down KC1 and KB5

Works for me, I have my backup, no way here at work to extract anything from them, so just pushing the system.img file up...
It's already uploading, so I'll let it go, if it turns out it's of any use, and needed I'll make it available.
Well, crap. I don't have KB5 or KC1 here on my work PC. So...I'll have to see what I have at home.
If someone else gets it up here, go for it....
ty for the replys ya the boot and sbl files deffently and or a full backup of a stock rom thats kd 1 that includes those files
Here are the ones from KC1
Moved to proper forum.
EDIT: Nevermind... they got it!

Does anyone happen to have the correct boot.bin and sbl.bin for the Galaxy S 4G? I'd love to have them if so and I know some of the DEV's here most likely have an ODIN package with them. I promise I would search for them but we all know that it's impossible to know what's in the ODIN package without downloading then looking inside it, or someone stating what's in it. I'm looking for good files to flash after JTAG sessions on the Galaxy S 4G.
Thanks!
this is from KC1, but should still work.

Wow this may be a huge help. Ok I've seen it said both ways but do you have a T959V pit? I'm going to be using heimdall and would like to use these but as you probably know the pit is required to repartition. I'm working with a T959V that I jtagged back to life but had previously been flashed with T959 firmware and surprisingly that has the partitioning all haywire.
Ok I confirmed that those are the correct boot.bin and sbl.bin files. Now I think if I could get a hold of a decent pit file I may could get this up and running.
the only one I have is a bad on. LOL
BUT, I know there is a way to make one from the phone. I'll have to look to see how the SK4G guys did it.
They are probably just dumping the bml partition that stores the pit. Thanks for the info though so far!
Alrighty I successfully produced my own PIT file and hex edited to ensure it was about the same as a typical one as there is a lot of extra gobble that must be removed with a hex editor from the dump file. I loaded it up into ODIN and flashed some old KC1 firmware and bam! Back up and running with correct partitioning!
Do you think you could make us a working .pit from it?

Said and done. It worked beautifully on the customer's SGS4G that I hard de-bricked and should for any DEV or enthusiast if needed. Remember, there is no need to use a PIT file unless you are having partitioning problems.

and as for the reply above asking "wont the stock odexed roms do this"? they might but I have never been able to push the correct file to system/bin to fix the clockwork recovery so I cant even get in there to flash any different rom.

You *SHOULD* be able to get away with the KG2 ROM which T-Mobile sent OTA to the Sidekick a few months ago. You can get that and the PIT file required to flash it back via ODIN here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1186954

The link works fine, you can flash the KG2 one linked above this post or the KD1 version here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1088413 . Follow the instructions, then once you use ODIN to get back to stock you can return the phone as it is. It'll be just like the software was never manipulated.
Also, i'll be moving this thread to the general section by the end of the day. If you havent responded yet i'll PM you to see if you still need help.
Immediate action required
Yeah, lolzy title.
I soft-bricked my SK4G trying to flash a custom ROM without making any backups or checking anything prior.. and I suffered.
I have ODIN and the sk4g.pit file, a good USB connection with stock cable and I cna get into download mode. Everything is looking really good, except MegaUpload and MultiUpload are down thanks to our guys up in the White House.
So, my (really desperate) question is, can anyone give me a working link to either KD1OdinSTOCK.tar or KG2OdinSTOCK.tar ? Even if it's .tar.md5, as long as it is the file I need to flash back to factory firmware, I'll love you forever. Been looking for 2 days already =\

Any one of those will work. You can also PM me on my YouTube (Iraqnid2088) or PM me here on this website as I'll be checking everything.
Please help me, I'm really quite desperate. :\
EDIT: I found a firmware that seems to be the latest for SK4G, Looks like the tag is "KH1" Rather than KD1 or KG2.
androidwaptoday.blogspot.com/2011/10/stock-rom-t839uvkh1-221-for-samsung.html
I've downloaded it but I can't get into the .tar without a password? Is this normal for android firmware or is something wrong?
I'm also curious if I can odin my phone with this file rather than the other 2 mentioned above. Thanks again!
I also need the KD1 or KD2 firmware... it would be very helpful if somebody could post a working link!!! Ive been looking for 3 days haha
Help would be greatly appreciated!
Souldrainer, I think I may have found newer firmware. It looks legit and is from SamFirmWare.
http://hotfile.com/dl/145788939/08a9a06/SGH-T839_T839UVKH1_TMB.zip.html
That is the address to the file itself. If that does not work, look up "T839UVKH1" on SamFirmWare.com.
To get the password to open the file, you'll need to sign up on their website (free)
as far as I know, it contains everything KD1 or KG2 firmware would, and is newer. I believe you odin your phone with this program. I'm about to... as soon as I can get odin to recognize my phone.
the reason why i wanted it was because in case i did something wrong with CWM, because i cannot put the recovery file in with KJ2, i wanted something i could rely on to back it up because i can't make a nandroid backup..
I rooted the phone but it wont let me put in the recovery file, and when i try to boot into recovery i get the stock recovery, am i supposed to use the update.zip file that i got? cuz im not sure if it would work with KJ2.
and thank you for the file!!! i shall check it out xD
I believe the reason you're not going to CWM Recovery is because theres a binary file you need to edit since the SideKick has a faulty Recovery file.
http://www.simply-android.com/discu...work-mod-recovery-for-t-mobile-sidekick-4g/p1
If I'm not mistaken, the edited binary file can be found here, and that will allow you to boot into CWM Recovery. Be sure to back up the files just in case. And on the site it tells you to overwrite (still back up) so overwrite, and do not replace or rename. Hopefully that'll help!
yea but it wont let me replace the file, it keeps saying file already exists or that i cant do that

If you are rooted, you have to make sure that the system partition is mounted as readable/writable (r/w) before you attempt to replace the recovery binary file.
The easiest way to do that is download ES File Explorer from the market, then go into settings and scroll all the way to the bottom. Select the check box for "Root Explorer" ; then, check the box for "Mount File System". You will get a superuser warning prompt- "Allow" it.
Now go follow the process to overwrite the recovery binary and you shouldn't have any problems.
--Finally, make sure that you ALSO have the update.zip on your SD card and boot into recovery. You will end up seeing the stock recovery-select "reinstall packages" and voila... you should be in CWM.
The password is "samfirmware.com" without the quotes (simple google search).
So I also have this file (T839UVKD1) sitting on my hard drive waiting to find out: is this safe to use?
I don't care if it's new or old, it's the only .tar related to the SK4G that's downloadable and it just needs to work.
I just don't understand why no one will simply post T839UVKD1 or T839UVKG2 for those of us who need it (is it a bandwidth thing?), everyone just wants to say, "just go to here/this post," where all the wonderful instructions are that can help me save my phone, but where the links are dead (megaupload and multiupload are down, as we all know, so the files are unattainable) so we download Odin or Heimdal and the .pit file, but are stuck because: no .tar.
Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller? Bueller?
T839UVKD1 SHOULD be safe to use proving the file you have is not corrupted, you can use it for Odin. if you wouldnt mind posting it i would really super appreciate it!

Epic Heimdall Packages:
The title should be self explanatory. Use these with Heimdall to flash your Epic back to stock or to flash CWM recovery.

Now everyone can stop using Odin!!!
NOTE:: The EI22 package does not include the ei22 modem.
Also, there are no bootloaders in these packages, so I do not think you should ever re-partition with these.

I never could get heimdal to recognize the epic when plugged into my imac although I haven't tried with lion. Supposedly this there was a secondary boot loader bug that got fixed on most galaxy s variants with froyo but we epic owners never got it. Works great on my PC though.

The bootloaders are not contained in these packages.
I doubt your bootloaders have been changed though, to my understanding they haven't changed in a while (or ever).
The only other thing would be the modem...
I need to add the EC05 modem to the EI22 package, so it is a nice and easy to flash the delta update zip in cwm to get updated.

Thank you for this. I finally got around to un-rooting / returning my wife's phone to stock. Now I can take it into the Sprint store. This should be the default method to return rooted phone to stock in the wiki, as it is quite easy if you follow the Heimdall instructions.
Can this be used to go back to BML from MTD instead of Odin? I'm guessing not since we can't repartition but wanted to make sure.
Can someone post just the radio flash from the official gingerbread OTA? I am perfectly happy with my ROM and setup and only want to upgrade my radio.
LOL I already had it on there but looked around. On the update.zip file I found a modem_delta.bin file. I flashed it with ODIN and it didnt kill my phone and I still have 3g/4g. Probably want somebody with more knowledge. Never mind like I said I did more reading well wait for somebody.

I have seen many posts about this before, and tried to follow them and they did not work for me. Was trying to install a rom then realized it soft bricked because i still had the stupid voodoo cwm installed. So i go to use odin and flash stock. Did that, all settings were fine in odin, but im stuck at TMobile Sidekick boot screen. Ive tried odin MULTIPLE times now and its still not working. Any hope?
Hmm, did you try Odin with 're-partition' checked? I always check that when Odining back from Voodoo lagfix.
Yes i had that and auto reboot checked
that's strange. well, as long as you have the SK boot screen there is definitely hope. what stock tar file are you using, where did you DL it? and you had the pit file in place too, yeah?
it should work. also, there is adamoutler's Heimdall as another option, i have used that also.
I did have the pit file in. and i selected KD1OdinSTOCK.tar through PDA. Also i could not figure out heimdall..
you might wanna try the KG2 file, the KD1 was not as reliable to me, from what i remember. will link you to the KG2 in a second...
find the KG2 Odin Tar in the first post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538576
that should hopefully work for ya.
Downloading now thanks for the link
no problem, let me know how it goes.
still not working
[EDIT] I downloaded a different KD1 and it worked! thanks for the help though!
yikes, sorry about that. not sure why that would be... unless one of the components of the tar file isn't flashing.
so it is hanging at the boot logo when it tries to boot up? Odin runs thru the whole process(about 3-4 minutes), and you get the green "Pass" message at the end.
a different KD1 download worked thanks though!
ok, great!
