[Q] Infuse back to stock using a mac 10.5.8

How can I get my infuse back to stock using a mac? I have tried heimdall front end and the Heimdall One-Click with no success. If there are step by step instructions on how to do this it would be greatly appreciated. I have searched and can't find much info for doing it on a mac. I have the infuse4g-backtostock-one-click.jar but when I click to open it just closes. I have restarted pc, reset permissions, updated java, put phone in download mode. Am I doing something wrong?

Open it in commands line. Open a terminal window and CD intro the directory. Type Java -jar backtostock.jar or whatever thename of that file happens to be. Clearly you didn't read the thread good enough, but at leeway you found the thread.
You may also need to set up codeless kext or something but I don't have a Mac so I don't know how to do that.
What happens when you try to run heimdall frontend?? And you can run heimdall in command line as well. Linux bozo went over that in the kj2 thread. The only difference is you won't need boot.bin or sbl.bin but may have to add param.ifs too the list. If test it to give explicit instructions but my power is out. I'm posting form my phone.

The java I get unable to access and when i put phone in download mode and open the oneclick stock boot infuse.jar file it just flashes on dock then quits. Heimdall front end gives tar header contained invalid file size. I am wondering if I can use the stock rom for i900 with heimdall such as XWJSD 2.2.1 with heimdall seeing I cannot find one specific to infuse?

Obviously you are using heimdall wrong. Did you try laughing one click from command line? That's how you nerd to open it, its covered in the thread.
Heimdall needs heimdall specific packages if you use a .tar. Don't do that plus i9000 roms don't work. Get the Odin package gtg made and extract the.tar I would make a heimdall package if I though anyone was gonna use it, but people don't like change even for the better, it drives me nuts.
heimdall 1.3 has 3 tabs, one is labeled "flash" open that tab. Get infuse.pit this is the only pit file that works. Then there is an add button, it will give you a selection of partitions to add. when you add a partition you need to add a file to that partition, the files vs partitions are as follows
zimage-kernel
factoryfs.rfs-factoryfs
Param.ifs-param
dbdata.rfs-database
Csc.rfs-cache
Modem.bin-modem
I'm going off memory and there may be a couple mistakes, but once you see how it works its not hard to see where stuff goes.
If you don't feel comfortable with that then get heimdall 1.1. Just extract the Odin .tar file and add files in the GUI., it really explains itself. I dislike the new GUI, the old one was easy. The command line us easy too but i'm not sure I remember the commands exactly right.

Do I need the odin exe to do this or can I just use the file? I cannot run exe files.

No just the .tar. Extract it and flash the files inside using heimdall.
If you can't figure it out you can get boot camp and run window.

I'm obviously not doing something right every time I extract the file in Heimdall 1.1 I get errors. Would AT&T put the stock rom back on if I took it in to them?

Update: I borrowed a windows pc and got it up in running back to original in about 30 minutes. Thanks for ll your help.

glad you got it but no att wouldn't do that. ROM flashing voids any type of warranty or insurance, sometime people get away with sending phones to Samsung if they get bricked, if you do that sort of thing make sure the phone doesn't even turn on or boot past the Samsung screen. The repair people probably don't have much time for diagnosis and would simply flash to stock and send it out the door.

Need Help using ODIN & Tar file

Need help. I am trying to restore my Skyrocket to factory. I down loaded the necessary files
-ODIN
-SGH-I727-UCKJ2-k0nane
The thing is that when I open Odin, click PDA and browse, I don't see the tar file(SGH-I727-UCKJ2-k0nane)? Do I have to convert the file to tar?
The SGH-I727-UCKJ2-k0nane is in the download file and I see it but when I use Odin to browse, I don't see the file?
Am I doing something wrong or am I missing a step?
I am using Window's Vista. Does it make any difference?
I have read instructions many many times and I can't figure it out.

anyone out there?

Sorry bro. I would help you but seeing as I have yet to have my SkyRocket in Hand and have not gone through the rooting and ROM process on THIS device. I am not comfortable giving advice. Best to wait for someone who has more experience with the SkyRocket than I.

the .tar file is INSIDE the file you downloaded. the file you downloaded is a .7z or 7zip file. 7zip is a free archive/extractor. unzip it with 7zip and you will find your tar file.
i find it always helps to have your WINDOWS configured to show file extensions to keep confusion like this to a minimum, since you would have actually seen the file extension type.

careful! this method trips the ROM counter. why are you returning to stock?

I figuered it out. I bricked my phone trying to update to 2.36.

[Q] Help With Heimdall Flashing Stock Tar

I want to flash the 'stock everthing' .tar from SAMMOBILE. I've done this with Odin before, but don't have access to a Windows machine at the moment and am looking to do this with Heimdall. I am on Xubuntu.
I installed the latest version Heimdall and the frontend, tried to load the .tar from SAMMOBILE, but it errored out saying the 'firmware.xml' was missing.
Assuming the firmware.xml file just held information about the package for Heimdall to read, I didn't find it a big deal.
I then installed an older version of Heimdall thinking that it wouldn't require a firmware.xml file. So now when I open up Heimdall, I see the following.
Screenshot - Attached
So I then went on to extract the tar on my computer and have the following files..
Screenshot - Attached
I guess my question is, which of those files go into which fields so that I can flash all of them and return to stock.
Thanks.

The last time I checked heimdall didn't support our device. But its been a while since I checked.

Download ODIN here: http://d-h.st/UO0. It sounds like you may have already done this. Extract it to your desktop. I'm assuming you have already installed the Samsung Drivers here:http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/SCH-I535MBBVZW. Install those if you haven't already. Download this file from the thread: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390214368362234355. Extract it to your desktop. Turn off your phone. Open Odin307 folder on your desktop and run Odin3 v3.07.exe. Put the phone into download mode by following second step in the thread: Put phone into download mode [with phone off, hold vol. down + home + power ], connect to computer.
once in odin click the PDA field and select the root66_VZW_I535VRBLK3.tar.md5 you downloaded.
Leave Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time checked.
click start and
when done let phone reboot.

ok so i have odin i have the drivers and downloaded the root66 file both the non wipe and wipe versions and both dont allow me to put it in pda, i get a warning msg basically saying where the file is located followed by the name of the file and then special characters that look like boxes. thats where im stuck with this process.

Do you have 7-zip or WinRAR installed? You have to extract the file out of the root66_VZW_I535VRBLK3.7z that you downloaded. The file you need to put in the PDA section in odin will be called root66_VZW_I535VRBLK3.tar.md5. That is the wipe version that I would recommend you use. The no-wipe verson file to use in odin in the PDA section is called root66_VZW_I535VRBLK3_nowipe.tar.md5.

Reflash none-wipe root66 is the right approach, you need to download and installed 7zip to your xp. Use 7zip to unzip your root66zip file, then use Odin to flash. Seems like the file is corruppted that's why Odin is not seeing the file name. Once you get this file name issue fixed, you should able to flash the zip.

nfc still works, i got nfc tags everywhere and tested them and are 100% operational.
as for the root file, i downloaded winrar onto xp to unzip the file, there are 10-15 files in it, i dont know which 1 to tack onto pda. what is 7zip? is that an extractor?

7zip is best extractor for. zips...
Sent from an Apple killing JellyBean

Double click the root66_VZW_I535VRBLK3.7z which should open it in WinRAR. If that doesn't do it open WinRAR and then select that file. There should only be one file inside to extract named: root66_VZW_I535VRBLK3.tar.md5. That is the one to use in the PDA section of odin. If WinRAR won't do it (it works fine for me), install 7-zip and extract it with that.

[Repack] Aorth's ClockWorkMod 6.0.2.7 (Odin Format) (All Devices)

Hey guys. Aorth has released a new CWM build, and so it looks like its time for more repack action...
The original thread / post where the Heimdall versions are posted is HERE.
What Is This?
This is the new 6.0.2.7 version of CWM as built by Aorth. This release differs from Aorth's only in the way it is "packed". Aorth releases raw IMG files which are suitable for use with Heimdall. These files have been repacked to work with Odin. Aorth (justifiably) is against the use of Odin because its a closed-source utility that was never meant for public use. However, some people (like me) have issues making it work correctly and prefer to use Odin to flash. This release lets you do that.
News
I haven't found a lotta info about what's new in this release, aside from "the latest support for Android 4.1+"
I know that some of the storage and mountpoint stuff has been changing around a bit, so if you're gonna be using CM10+ ROMs, you'll want this recovery.
I changed my packaging slightly from last time. I am now packing the files inside of ZIP files. This allows me to name each released file properly without breaking the MD5 checksum, which should allow you to flash without issues. On my previous release(s) I renamed the file to be flashed, which causes an "invalid MD5" error.
How To Use?
I don't plan on doing a lot of handholding n00b-helpery in this thread. If you're flashing a custom recovery you should generally know WTF you're doing.
-Unzip the recovery for your device. You should get a recovery.tar.md5 file. DO NOT rename this.
-Put your tab into download or Odin mode.
-Hook it up to your computer via USB
-Launch Odin3 Version 1.85 (linked in this thread in case you lost yours )
-If Odin can 'see' your tab you should have a yellow box that says something like 0:[COM16]. If you don't have this, check USB and/or make sure you're really in download mode.
-Click the "PDA" button and then select the recovery.tar.md5 file.
-Click Start.
-Profit.
Standard XDA Disclaimer
I only own a T869 and I didn't build the original CWM or do any development. I have fully documented my involvement and "what I did", and just like with Aorth's direct releases, there's no warranty that comes with this software. If you brick your stuff its not my fault, nor is you losing your mind, job, love life, or faith in our Android savior as a result of using any of these files.

As with my previous threads, I used an Ubuntu Server 12.10 system to do the "repack". For the interested, you can "convert" a Heimdall img into an Odin md5.tar package with the following terminal commands:
Code:
mv t869_clockworkmod_6.0.1.2.img recovery.img
tar -H ustar -c recovery.img > recovery.tar
md5sum -t recovery.tar >> recovery.tar

Not really, provided you know how to re-stock via Odin.
All this does is over-write the recovery partition on your device, so worst case is you mess up your recovery and can't get into it anymore until you fix it via re-stock. Obviously you'd only want to do this kind of thing withOUT a relatively full battery charge.

Some other people in this thread seem to have successfully used the p6200 version without issue, which would imply that your download is corrupt. You could re-download, or you could give the Heimdall version a try.

The "ROM" or OS portion of your tablet is seperate from your "recovery" partition, which is where CWM lives. You can (and probably should) be using this instead of the "stock" recovery, since the stock recovery has been known to cause bricked devices during formatting.
