Wifi,Odin, kirles problems - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

I bought the phone from someone already rooted and ran into some problems.....
I installed the correct drivers for this phone off one of the xda forums for flashing. I also noticed when setting it up the wifi will not obtain the IP Address. It is running firmware 2.2.1
Odin will recognize the phone and start to flash but then get held up at the "setup connection" tried multiple roms
Kies when It is downloading binary files it gets an error
I fallowed all instructions to the letter, I have never ran into this problem in all the phones I have flashed , any ideas would be greatly appreciated

As far as the wireless goes, are you absolutely sure you put in the correct network key? Is there a network key? Are you home and can mess with router settings?

The one time I had that problem I just reset my wifi router. If you're using encryption (I hope you are), make sure the settings on the phone match the settings on the wifi router (WPA, WPA2, TKIP/AES, etc.) & that you're using the right pass code.

The phone must be in download mode for ODIN to recognize it. Were you able to get it into download mode?

If you're wanting to get it updated to Gingerbread, I'd suggest following FBis251's Gingerbread Starter Pack or using one of Bhundven's One-clicks. The latter option only requires that you have Java installed.

Weird. Have you tried performing a factory data reset on the phone? It couldn't hurt & might clear up some problems.

That's odd. That would prevent ODIN from working for sure. If it's rooted, download and install a terminal emulator from the market. Then open the terminal and issue these commands:
su
reboot download
That should get you into download mode unless something's really hosed.

That would be due to it not going into download mode. Try what I said above and see if it works

Tried factory reseting didn't work I will try the terminal in a little bit i didnt think about that and I know its rooted cause I used root check basic and super one click to reroot to see if that would work

Cool, let me know how it goes. I'm thinking that if we can get you into download mode that getting you updated to GB might help a lot.
If you're not looking to go that route and want to stay Froyo, you might want to look at GPS Aids in the market. It has a "hard reset" feature that might be of help.

Thank I forgot all about terminal emulator I will mess with it in a min and let u know thanks for the support

Is it plugged into the same USB port as before? ODIN & Win7 are funny about that some times. If that doesn't help you might have to power it off & back on to get ODIN to see it:
Power off the phone
Unplug the USB cable
Remove the battery
Plug the USB cable into the computer and the phone
Hold down the volume up and volume down keys
While holding those down, re-insert the battery
See if that gets you back into download mode and/or recognized by ODIN. Also make sure you're using ODIN 1.85.

I tried this and couldn't figure out why it won't work

windows not recognizing phone

Ok so I'm not sure what happened here, but my laptop wont recognize my phone. I have windows 7 and the phone is currently running octane. I originally had used odin to set the phone up with the proper boot loaders a while back then used cwm to flash ravers octane. I wanted to go back to stock using the official kj6 that raver posted through odin. When ever i hook the phone in to the laptop it says usb device not recognized. Any ideas or ways to fix this? I tried uninstalling and installing the sgs4g drivers again with no luck.
shut off..when u go into dl mode Odin should get it..don't worry about it while it's on...I did that for an hour last week...with octane

If it recognized it before, make sure you're plugging it back into the same USB port you previously used. Also make sure the drivers are installed. If they're acting buggy, uninstall them and reinstall them. Downloading and installing Kies Mini (link provided by FB) would insure you get the right drivers installed.
Every time you flash a new Rom, it will probably do that. It depends on your computer. Once you uninstall the drivers, try to run ccleaner from piriform to clean out the registry. Reboot the computer. Then reinstall the drivers using the files from the Bible.

Yeah I tried UN and reinstalling the drivers I had gotten them from the Bible. I will try ccleaner and see what happens. Also I tried all USB Ports. Thanx for all your ideas I will post if ccleaner works or not

Plug your phone into your computer. Then go into your control panel and under Admin tools open computer managment. click on the device manager extension and find the device/s with the yellow exclamation point. right click and select uninstall. then unplug your phone and install the drivers from the SGS4G Bible and then plug your phone back in and it should work.
I forgot to mention my wife has this phone to stock never touched and my laptop registers gets just fine. When I plug mine in it says
USB device not recognized. And under some other options it says windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. I will try these suggestions though

Short of a factory data reset (which you'll want to do before sending it in for repair, anyway), I don't know. It's weird that it worked until you flashed a ROM.

[Q] {q} HELP! MORON ATTACK! This thing is like a soap opera

So, yesterday, I had a perfectly functioning, stock 4.1.1/rooted unit.
Got a little frisky and decided to try out Liquid Smooth. Flashed that through recovery (it's a 4.2.1 Beta 2) but forgot to do the bootlocker.
The latest LS has a Bluetooth sound problem that's pretty bad. So, I thought I'd switch over to CM10.1, their 4.2.1 effort.
Well, without the bootlocker in place, you can pretty much guess how that worked out.
So now, I've odin'ed a variety of roms and so forth; no clue what happened to my backup.
My main focus has been what I call the dunce-cap routine, of going back to stock and starting over.
The problem? I did that and now I'm stuck in roaming mode and my calls don't work.
I'm dead without this phone (considering how long I've been working on this, since 8 pm or so yesterday except for a couple of hours of sleep, I might be dead, period.) and I've got to have one functioning. It's so bad that I'm considering just trashing it and buying another one, even thought THAT would hurt.
Almost everything I try winds up either getting the yellow triangle or the odin fail.
Now, thanks to some help I've gotten here that focused me into understanding this total screw up is MY fault completely, I believe I know what has to be done.
The plan was to go back to stock, root and DO THE DAMNED BOOTLOCKER, then go back into CM10.1 and make some changes in subscribing to CDMA or something (don't have that in front of me this second) to get the phone part of the phone operational but I can't get there.
In the guide here I have completed step 1, flashing the factory image.
The next step is blowing me up. I have used the file I have for the Recovery: CWM6023TouchVZW.tar.md5.tar, maybe 4 times.
NOW when I try it, odin fails and the phone tells me "secure check fail : recovery."
And help would be appreciated. Before I feed this thing to my Doberman Cavalier Spaniel. Or something.
Have you tried Odin with a completely stock rom?

Yup. Completely stock rom is installed. The next step was installing the recovery... and using a file that I had used before, that's where I'm running into the problem of the secure check fail.
That very file HAS worked before, 3 or 4 times with no problem.
Why does the file end in ".tar.md5.tar"? It's supposed to end in ".tar.md5" Since owning this phone, I've never seen a file with ".tar" twice in the file name.

Update: OK... have gone through the guide which went brilliantly.

Is there anything I've overlooked? Anything else I need to do?
And do I do the factory reset/wipe dalvik and the rest before, or after?
I presume I have to use ezlock to unlock the bootloader again after this, right?
No, you still need to unlock bootloader and backup your IMEI. You may want to do quite a bit of reading, CM 10 is not as easy to fix some of the potential problems that you could possibly encounter.
I am not hating on them, but don't think it is as simple as one of the TW ROMS.

When I try this method to back up the IMEI it doesn't do anything after entering the *#7284# and if I hit the phone, it just sends me to a Verizon intercept operator.

i was going to s-off the this morning and flash illusion 2.0 but instead i am beating my head off the keyboard. i have been reading all day. i have like 12 tabs open and my main problem is that adb isn't working. not sure what i'm doing wrong. i need to get to supercid. instructions seem easy enough. i go to command prompt, change my directory, everything good here just as usual. when i type "adb shell" i get "error: device offline" don't know what i'm doing wrong. thanks in advance.

It's usb debugging that you need to check. You mentioned that you are on a custom rom ... Is it sense based or aosp? I was still on the stock ics rom when I changed to super cid. Everything went just fine, although I didn't proceed to do Facepalm s-off immediately. I did flash cm10, and came back to finish s-off a couple of weeks later. Nearly drove myself crazy, until I realized it works best when done on a sense rom. Flashed a stock rooted rom, and it literally took about 10 minutes to finish s-off. Restored my cm10 backup, and all is well.
I really appreciate the info. I'm on bb8, which isn't sense. I have USB debugging on. Should I be on a stock rpm to get supercid or just for s-off? My problem is adb won't my phone.

And you've tried putting it into fast boot? Also have you set up android SDK?

what do you mean by tried putting it into fast boot? & by that i mean i thought it had to be in fastboot. also, i believe i have sdk set up but that's maybe where i'm going wrong. in cmd i actually got it to say "daemon started successfully" which it's suppose to, but then it said "error: device not found" not sure what i'm doing wrong.

Fast boot is when you boot into boot loader using power + volume down. Once you get to boot loader there's an option for fast boot use you power button to select it

i serched the android sdk guide and it looks like i have everything in order. i will dl the gn toolkit. also, i've heard that some things work better with a sense rom. i did switch to trickdroid, which has wifi issues and will not be a daily driver, but i can't remember if it was with scid or s-off or something else.

if the gn toolkit doesn't work i'll have to give that a try. i'm tmobile us. which is the correct ruu i should flash if i want to try that? i read about don't get the ota updates. your help is greatly appreciated.
i fired up the toolkit and it says there is an update. but it wants version. i'll put a gsm version but should i put 4.2.2 or 4.1.2 or something different?

It doesn't matter. Don't hook your phone up with the toolkit. Also what's your hbootM
