Hi,
I need help from kind heart people in this forum if they can help to re-packaged the XXKG5 files from xda-developer into ODIN flashable files like example
CODE_I9100XXKG5_xxxxxx.tar.m d5
MODEM_I9100XXKG5_xxxxxx.tar.md5
GT-I9100-CSC-xxxxxx.tar.md5
I have downloaded the XXKG5 files from xda-developer BUT the package contains files like boot, cache, factoryfs, hidden, modem, param.lfs, sbl and zImage of which I cannot flash with ODIN.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I would like to have XXKG5 on my SGS2.
Thanks.
i guess you extract the .tar file don't you? just double click 7e file that you originally download and use the extracted file as it is. do not need to extract once again.

I didn't. Yes I extracted the first compressed file dowloaded. Then all I get are the files like in Image 1. Since Odin cannot flash the compressed file in Image 1....IF I extracted the compressed file in Image 1 then all I get are the files like in Image 2...
As you can see, either way I can't flash with Odin.
If you downloaded from xda it shouldntt look like that.You only need to double click on the file and it extracts.if you didn't download from here then here it is

Read the first notice part about extracting the file to make sure you understand clearly.
Hey I'm new herre and im trying to put clockwork mod on my phone, ive already rooted with superone click. Im using odin v3.95 and i think i need a ops file because when i try to click start with cwm loaded in pda i just get a check image file error.
Im a total noob. Please Help! Thanks
What is the filename of the file you're trying to flash?
cwm-recovery-ALL.tar
I at least figured out it had to be a .tar file.
Download 7zip and open that .tar file within 7zip...is there another .tar or .md5 file inside? There was a CWM .tar released that you had to extract the flashable file from inside of it.
Whoever packaged it made it really confusing. Check and see if that's what you got. Or link me to the file you downloaded and I'll check it out for you.
Hi guys, rooting my galaxy S2, or trying to. Downloaded the GT-I9100_XXKI3_insecure file from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1101671, but when I extracted the file I get a XWKDD_insecure.tar file, in other words a different name from XXKI3. I don't want to mess up my phone in odin by using the incorrect kernel, so can somebody explain why I'm getting a XWKDD when I (seemingly) should be getting a XXKI3 .tar? is it the correct one despite the different name?
Thanks.
Hi all,
Can anyone pls point me to download N8000 Factory Firmware with all files:
CSC, CODE, MODEM (and maybe BOOTLOADER also) and PIT.
Possibly also that of i8190 - Galaxy S3 mini
Thanks in advance

Which file?
There are too many files on those links and im sure most of them will be 1 single file (md5 or tar)
But what I need is the complete 3 or 4 files with PIT.
Do you know which ?
Sammobile.com have a look also look at the PIT file post here some place .
Your post should be in Q&A its not development .

You can use Heimdall to extract your PIT, just put your device in download mode and go to utilities -> detect; then press download.
For the files, just extract your .zip file, rename the .tar.md5 as .tar, and if you have 7z installed you can extract this file.
You'll find the files you need.
