[Q] Bootder problem - Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Well i took my mobile to the service center to get my antenna repaired. But they instantly caught that i flashed a firmware of other country as it was showing i5800 instead of i5801. But now i want to get back to i5801. Is there any way except for flashing bootloader. Also if I flash with bootloader, then am really playing with fire?? Cause i really need to revert back to i5801 as the guys at service center over here are actually smart. So any Idea??

Just flash ddjp6(if you r from india) or dxjpc(other asian countries)

There is no other way. You will have to flash bootloader. Yes its a bit risky. Just don t disconnect until the flashing process is complete.

In between I had flashed ddjp6 from here and I got the i5801 screen. You can try that also.
P.s that might fix your antena prob also as it is optimized for india. I somehow get a better strenght when I use ddjp6 compatef to kyrillos.

Flash the bootloader. I have flashed a bootlaoder twice now with no problems. It's not really that dangerous unless your computer crashes in the flashing process or you disconnect your phone from your computer. With that being said, I don't take any resposibility if your phones blows up

i flashed six times!!
go on buddy!! dnt b afraid!!

does it really matter? gingerbread is so much better, and who knows wen 'official' for india is out. if you wanted to hand in your phone to samsung for example, couldnt you just flash back to ddkf1? they wont know the difference
I think maybe the Service may notice that your phone's factory timer is so low that probably you flashed it. But just shout at them you want your phone fixed. That usually works.

Highly doubt, repartitions are done every firmware flash via kies or odin so the timer will always reset, that's why even when you do a nandroid restore your clock always messes up rofl

I have the same situation of your. This is the process I did:
- flash CWM recovery
- Nandroid backup
- copy custom rom (atomic v6) to internal sd
- flash it in recovery mode
- the process was successed and I can boot the device
- (My first fault is I haven't rooted my device yet)
The device work great and smooth (haven't rooted too). Later, Its my second fault that I didn't notice the difference of baseband (I'm in Thailand), so it hadn't thai language and I want to restore to the stock rom. I turned off the device and... Big headache come across to me! The screen stay on "samsung" logo for long time and it blink when I press power button. So i remove battery about 5 minutes and reinsert. Nothing happen!! I cant do anything. Can someone help him and me???:crying:
Have you guys tried odin yet?
I think it is compatible because my friend messes up too like that........download the stock firmware, put phone in download mode, open odin, connect too pc and make sure you set anything up right ( android sdk needed)

For you i suggest you install a zip flashable "near" stock ROM and when the phone respons then put it back with odin and stock ROM
( for odin you need: android sdk)

Ohh guiesss i jusr read all of ur comments about our galaxy ace plus GT-S7500.
I really love this phone but as time pass after taking this phone m trying for searching custom roms for our cell just like custom rom ics, jellybean etc.
But i didnt get anyone of it which works on our cell.
& then i realise there r no more roms available for our cell excepting that three roms atomic rom , alacritous &
Gaple rom.:banghead:
Really telling i didnt like any one of them :what: but we dont have choice to fo to select roms hence i was thinking to install any one of them but after reading all bricked cell comments i would like to wait till more safe n attrective roms cames available for our smartphone

[Q] hide the fact i rooted my phone from Samsung repair center

Hi!
I have a GT-B5512 Samsung Galaxy Y Pro Duos and i just flashed it with Odin and now want to send it in to Samsung. Will they be able to tell i have rooted my phone before? Thanks.
I'm pretty sure they'll see it if you send it in rooted - just un-root it for now and redo it when it comes back

? I thought the root is gone when I just flashed with Odin a new Rom. Aint that right?
U r right when u flash through odin ur root will go..but the custom bin counter will show 1 so make it 0 by using galaxy tool box app..otherwise ur warranty will not b there..

God damn it. I just did the entire process and yes it shows 0 on custom binary count now. But I didnt check if it showed 1 before clearing. So it wasnt that much fun. But probably it was 1 before, right?
Anyway. Thank you VERY MUCH. I wouldnt want to loose the chance for a brand new phone because of a stupid number saved somewhere deep in the jungle of my phone memory.
What I liked very much that i had to root my phone again in order to be able to disguise the fact it is rooted. Its like committing a crime to conceal a crime. Very criminal!
Anyway. What do I do now? Do I have to flash through Odin again to get rid of the root? Because it is still rooted now, right?
u just flash the unroot.zip using following link it works for b5512..no need to flash through odin if u flash through odin then ur custom bin counter will change again.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25140479

OMG that message I got 30 minutes too late. I just flashed with Odin again. But I thought flashing a original Samsung stock Rom is perfectly legal. Isnt it? Also they can figure out easily that I flashed a ROM because the phone is from Greece and came with a Greek keyboard and a greek ROM. I had to flash a European ROM in order to be able to write in normal letters on the keyboard. I dont even have the original ROM any more and its not on the Internet either. So...
Don't you think its fine if I just send it in like it is now? Unrooted with a original Samsung stock ROM?
thanks! i hit the thanks button as well

thanks but not on the list. I think the name of the greek ROM ends with XXKL8. I will call in at Samsung as soon as its business hours and ask them again about it. But I know a Polish guy who asked Polish Samsung about the same thing and he got the answer that flashing a original Samsung ROM does NOT void the warranty.
just do the unrooting process.above...then there you go ...your phone is not rooted now..

First, make sure you have the correct Model. Is your tab a P6200 or P6210? Then get a full ROM of Samsung OEM Firmware with the PIT file and flash with Odin and makes sure to check use PIT file. When going between major revisions like ICS to JB the partitions sometimes change . Also hopefully you didn;t do a system reset (clear) from stock ICS, because there was a potentially fatal brick bug in that version. It's ok to use other country ROMs assuming on the P6200 the radio section works for your cell provider.

If it will still charge and boot into download mode, it may not be bricked, it might be that the partitions are just messed up. Worth a try to re-partition with a .pit if so.

Solution....
Relax...if you've searched around....the same thing happened to me and my 6200L. Everything failed except HC....until a fellow member told me to try something and it works like a charm.
For some reason, my 6200L, and many out there, arent too friendly with ODIN, i had tried all sorts of firmwares, PIT and all, but the solution was simple and easy:
Mobile ODIN.
In a memory card, copy the firmware you want, in my case I put the latest 4.1.2 for the 6200L. I flashed HC using ODIN, and then downloaded Mobile ODIN. From there I selected the image for the 4.1.2, and voila. Problem solved.
Hope this helps,
Paul
