Thank you very much! Your guide helped me rescue my brick. Turns out there is a third download screen which I was on. Thank you again.
Glad it is working.

I'm using victory_8G_100528.pit
You don't need the pit with the tar file.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
This is a full Odin .tar -- no pit file needed.
Question: I had DK17 with Quantum ROM 1.5...I just flashed the .tar in Odin. No PIT file. I also unchecked F.Reset Time (I think thats what it said). I flashed correctly, right? I have 100% stock DK28 now, correct.
Also, is this the official Froyo build?
Everything seems to be working correctly. Rotation is still a tad slow though. Lock screen lag is 100% gone.

That's because the mods took it down, then put it back up again.
Man, what a mess. Mine's still in "quarantine" for some reason. Ah well, guess it's good to have at least one thread that's working!

Sent from an Epic on roids
I'm less annoyed now I guess since people have already posted rooted versions etc. As long as the stuff gets to the users, in the end I'm happy. I'm giving up on getting a response from the mod, I think - this here is turning into a good thread so let's go with it.

Sorry guys, didn't seen any other thread with the .tar (because it was deleted I guess). Got mine from a source and posted it. Didn't know anyone else posted it. This one is a little different anyway, because it doesn't require the victory .pit to work.
OP can you please remind the users that they will BREAK ROOT and recovery if they flash this.... They will also not be able to install Themes........
Thank you

I will add that, but users can always root again with one click.
It's ok - theres always silly drama around release time so mine must have already been hidden. Keep this going!

right, i realized that was dumb of me to not check the end of the post, having checked everywhere else. next time i'll know!
I heard this special from Samsung to AT&T dismissed by one of the pillars of this community as it's conglomeration of hardware is somehow disagreeable. Hence my respect to that with the title of this thread.
I am stuck at:
ODIN MODE
Product name: SGH-I727
custom binary download: NO
CURRENT BINARY: SAMSUNG OFFICIAL
<picture of phone on left and yellow ! triangle middle, and on the right pic of pc
under that it says:
Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
I am stuck there. (I unplugged during download mode) Any help for this ignorant biker who tried getting root first thing before even setting up his new phone would be appreciated.
They'll probably be able to help you more in the turdrocket forum.

So do you have the SR or the ATT SGS2 ? IF you have the sgs2 then look in the development thread for a return to stock rom. It has directions to get you back to stock firmware. I know some people accident flashed i9100 international sgs2's and they were able to get back with the return to stock.

If you have the SR you will need to go to there forums for a fix.

I read the stuff, downloaded stuff, is there a link to fire up Odin on Windows 7? I downloaded tar files and stuff but can't do anything with them.

Thank you!
I am pleased to report it worked very well. Thank you very much for your helpful reply kornklown69.
I wonder why you smart people always assume so much and leave out details obvious to yourselves and a mystery to an ordinary biker?
If I hadn't been voraciously reading every page of as many threads as I have, spending as many hours as I can every day for weeks on end now (started with an att Infuse), I would still have been clueless.
I felt SO empowered when I realized the puzzle. The link you provided took me to the {How to][Tar][Odin] thread. Read the whole thing. Sounded promising. Got my stuff together, I'm not "rogers", check. My computer and cords have been performing flawlessly, check. Who cares about this counter and maybe I will end up getting a jig, and end up stashing it with my HDMI cord 'n stuff, check.
Hey where is the link for Odin?
STILL "where is the link to Odin" it finally dawned on me to use the Forum tool button and search for "Odin 1.85"
Bingo. A tiny little file that downloaded in no time, compared to the hour it took to download the TAR.
My elevator has been up for a long time my door just wouldn't open. Thank you for the help, and thank you for indulging, I digress.

If all you want is try out new ROMs, no need to root. Follow the instructions for NVFlash (search the Dev thread).

Did you remember to Wipe before installing CM7? Wait, how'd you install the ROM? Did you flash ClockWorkMod using NVFlash or Rom Manager? Please tell me you didn't use Rom Manager.

Try searching. All your questions have been answered many times. With a simple search you could have had all your answers instead of waiting. BTW, many people don't reply to threads like this as they are tired of people asking questions that can be answered by searching first.
ilovebeerdanny: as a fellow newcomer I can share my experience which is that this community is super cool and filled with people who will help you out but no-one here is going to hold your hand. You're much more likely to get help if people see you've done your homework first.
When reading answers to your question pay attention to who's giving them. There's a reason members like jboxer and FatalityBoyZahy have high Thanks meters.
Welcome to the forum and have fun.
