[Q] How do you flash a new modem file?

OK, I see lots of threads on the new modem available. I've downloaded it and now I have no idea what to do next. Searches don't turn up any instructions since the word 'flash' is used a billion times in this forum.
Anybody got some instructions?

Download the community kernel from the development section and the modem of your choice, put them on your internal SD card. Download sgs kernel flasher from the market. Using sgs kernel flasher flash the community kernel which includes the red clockwork mod recovery. Once that is done, reboot into recovery and flash the modem of your choice. This is how I did it and I'm on infused 1.6.0.

This is not correct. That is a kernel flasher, not a modem flasher. To flash a modem, go into clockworkmod if you have a version that is compatible with it, then install from sdcard then select from sd card then go find the file. You may want to know where it is in the first place beforehand, usually in the download folder. Then from there just flash it. The words I said may not be exact, but they are something like it. Good luck!

Where can we get a flashable zip at? For the newest modem?
E3D

I presume that means I have to be rooted to do it? That's a disappointment. I'm staying unrooted until the official Gingerbread release. I'm frustrated because I'm still on the original modem version and checking for updates tells me I'm on the latest, which is of course a blatant lie.

First of all, go look for the thread in the devsection on modems. It will be there and thats where you get it to flash. Yea you do have to be rooted, but you may just want to. If you have ot gotten any updates, then you may never. I never did, so i rooted and installed a custom gingerbread rom. Anway if you even do this, you will be able to flash the new gingerbread rom.

pay no attention to this, you don't have to be rooted.
in the [MODEMS] development thread, notice how there are CWM flashable zips, as well as odin files for each modem.
odin is your friend in this situation.

[Q] DEAR GOD please help. Rooting, changing OS, Downloading ROM.

Ok I have been at this for a few hours. I have upgraded the original Samsung Infuse 4G HD's firmware to gingerbread version something or other but it is a leaked release. Sooo now I'd like to root the phone and put a ROM on it. I downloaded everything I believe I need. (Again I have been at this for awhile) I have SOC and KiesMini as well as full Kies. I have downloaded Titanium Backup, ROM manager, and Superuser to the phone. I went to do a root on SOC and it will get to step 6 and freeze. I've read a few things and gathered that I need to download the drivers for the phone again and restart root process. Well it's been and hour and a half and I can find the damn drivers anywhere on the web. I have repeatedly unplugged and replugged the phone to the computer and let it download the drivers. Kies and KiesMini both are unable to connect to the phone. Scratch that Mini connects but doesn't recognize the device, my guess is that it does not have the original firmware on it, then again I don't see how this would stop the program from recognizing the phone itself seeing as though this was just a firmware update. I'm semi new to this so I wouldn't be surprised if I was wrong.
Please if you have a full guide or step by step instructions or just know where the hell to get the drivers online I'd be very appreciative.
Also if this is the wrong thread section, let me know I'll be happy to move it. I believe I am in the right place though.
Thank you,

If I understand correctly, you already rooted your phone once. Then flashed one of the gingerbread leaks and lost root?
I don't think any of the normal root methods will work. I believe you need to flash a certain kernel to get root back.
Or just use GTGs method to get back to stock. Then normal root methods will work.

if all else fails try superoneclick. thats what i used. and once you get it rooted again flash the MIUI mod to your phone. its a great ROM, i highky recommend it. anyways i agree with the guy above. you may need to find a way to flash a different kernal. let us know how it goes.

Imo, i would flash back to stock with with GTG's unbrick... Either flash community kernel to get red CWM or do SOC to get root, download CWM Rom Manager from market and flash CWM Recovery thru there, make sure to choose "Galaxy s i9000" and NOT the MTD. Do it twice just in case or thrice for sure. You should be able flash any ROM through there or reboot to recovery. This has worked for me multiple times. Good luck.
Here is a link from @misterjunky in the wiki thread for the usb drivers:

I would suggest using GTG's back to stock package, then re-root, flash the leak (if you still want it), and flash Entropy's DD for root, then flash back to the stock kernel.
Reply if you need any help with this, I'll try to reply during school, if I don't, someone else will, or I will after school.

If you need root with gb I assume you flashed a stock kernel. The board elders have stated you can't root gb through superoneclick. That hack was patched. You need to flash a rooted kernel and then flash back to stock if you want stock or just leave it with custom kernel. Read through the uckj2 (I think) thread in development. Linuxbozo gave perfect instructions.

It's good that the information is finally getting passed around. Sorry but root it's now done from the kernel end. It's the last backdoor in but Samsung makes it easy on the user end, only problem now is ya gotta wait for developers to compile kernels with initramfs mods.
what you need is.
1. Drivers, Samsung.com infuse product support section. No need for kies.
2. A kernel that roots, entropy has a good one with wifi and sd compatibility.
3. A flash tool such as Odin or heimdall and dependencies. (visual c++ redistributable package from Microsoft download center for heimdall)
4. (optional) a stock uckj2/4/ kernel if you want hdmi to work.
If you use Odin, the custom kernel that will root you needs to be in a ".tar" archive. You put it in the pda slot. After first boot you will have root and have the option to flash back to a kernel with hdmi. once rooted this can be done with sgs kernel flasher if you can't find the .tar version of the stock kernel, you can extract the zimage from the original Odin package and zip it or .rar it and put it on the sd card to be flashed in kernel flasher.
If you use heimdall (my personal preference) you will extract the zimage out of what ever archive it is in. it may be .zip .tar .rar it can even be cwm flashable. You open the tab labeled "flash" load the infuse.pit that gtg made (found with the unbrick package) then click the "add" button select "kernel" for the partition and then browse for the zimage for the root kernel.
Same process to go back to the hdmi kernel for heimdall. Or you can use kernel flasher like I explained above.
No need to go back to stock or wipe data for kernel flashing. That's just overkill and a waist of time.

Awesome instructions but I think it's worth mentioning (and maybe that's why you DIDN'T mention it actually) that you need a pit to flash anything in the front end but unless you WANT to repartition, you should make sure that check box is UNCHECKED after you select the pit.

Yeah don't repartition!. It's potential for disaster, better left for situations whet you have all the partitions to flash and the phone won't boot after trying without repartition. The pit is just for partition mapping in the new front end. I guess it's designed to work with devices that may have different partitioning as well

This is true. 1.1 works great and doesn't need a pit file. It is also easier if you never used it before. It kinda explains itself.

Sorry I haven't responded until now, I've been incredibly busy. Anywho, so I went ahead and flashed back to stock. So now it is exactly how it should be when I bought it. I run SOC and it gets to running pneuter and stops. I've waited an hour on it and it won't continue. Any suggestions?

That's the ROM i'm trying to get on mine as well, I just cant get the damn phone to root.

I posted a reply in the other thread

[Q] Now what!?!?!Help after everything!

Okay so my phone is rooted [i already added the 32bit driver]. I used ODIN to root my sgs4g to GB 2.3.3, i Then downloaded,[used ODIN again to install] drhonk's stock+Voodoo-T959VKH2.tar - followed the [Solution Thread]Step by Step on how to flash any Gingerbread ROM. [ i have also installed titanium back up pro - busybox - voodoo control - quick boot]
Now i have yet to flash a rom yet as im not quite clear as how to do it.
Everywhere i have looked for a guide to flashing it just says place files on the root of your sd card.
Does that mean plug my phone into my computer via USB and do this ? or do i have use ODIN again ? and if i do have to use ODIN again do i put the file in the PDA area again and hit start?
Is flashing and using ODIN two different things or are they the same?
ONce i get this figured out i would like a ROM that speeds up my sgs4g and has a few cosmetic options or different themes and maybe removes bloatware [but i think i read that titanium backup can do that?]? i was thinking valhalla? if there is something better or more geared towards what i want what would it be?
If im being a dumbass noob just tell or link a guide i should follow and i will figure it out , but i have been up all night messing with this and i cant figure it out. I have slept in 24 hours so im kinda retarded at the moment =p

so i think i figured it out, correct me if i am wrong - Download the rom, open ODIN , connect phone in download mode , Use the PDA area and add the .tar ROM file , hit start , then boot phone in CWM and then move files to the SD card from there?
since i have voodoo i have to disable it before i mount to sd card also right?

If you have one of honks kernels you should have clockworkmod recovery. Most custom roms are flashed from there. No Odin involved. I recommend Valhalla or octane. Either download directly from your phone or to your computer then move it to your SD card. Boot into cwm recovery and flash the rom.

Edit that. I saw your on android 2.3.3. That's not a good version of gb. You need to go back and Odin a newer version. The kg4 2.3.4 has the correct bootloaders. Odin that rom then Odin Dr honks kernel then flash a cwm rom. Fbis251 has an excellent starter guide in the dev section. Find it read it and follow it and you will have no issues at all.

[AT&T] [ROM] [UCLB3] Heimdall One-Click Return to Stock + Easy CWM Installation

[ROM] [2.3.6] Heimdall One-click Back-To-Stock UCLB3
Introduction:
This package will install ATT's SGH-I997 GingerBread UCLB3 to your Infuse 4g.
This package is intended for use on AT&T Network, however it may work with any network if you reset APN. (I have no experience with other networks)
This package includes:
Repartitioning: Repartition to stock UCLB3
Reloading: IBL/PBL, PARAM, SBL, SBL2, Kernel, Recovery, FactoryFS and modem
formatting:Cache and DBdata
This package does not wipe:
EFS(Where your serial number and carrier information is stored)
Data(where your market apps are stored)
SDCard (where your pictures are stored)
How can you use this package?
1. To cleanly install the latest ATT Infuse UCLB3 Gingerbread leak. No hassle One-Click. Then enjoy the lastest leak of Infuse GB.
2. To Restore your phone to factory state.
3. To Restore your phone from boot loops, Samsung Logo, Soft Brick - non-hardware related failures from bad flashes, borked partitions or mismatch voodoo partitions. (I suspect many users will use it for this purpose)
4. To Get GingerBread Boot Loaders and get rid the the rainbow color recoveries when you try to flash ICS/CM9/CM10/JB
Scenario #1: Oh, gosh! I would love to have the latest GB leak from AT&T! How to I do that? What in the world is Odin? Ain't it some mythological Norse deity?
Heimdall 1 click - done!
Scenario #2: I think I did something to my phone. It's not working right. My wifi is dropping like a leaky faucet. My Market is not working. I hate my phone! I wish it was like factory.
Heimdall 1 click - done!
Scenario #3: Oh crap! I just #@#% in my pants! I bricked my phone. OMG!!! I'm stuck on SAMSUNG logo! I'm boot looping! I lost recovery! Help me!!!
Heimdall 1 click - done.
How to INSTALL:
Update to the latest java: http://java.com/en/download/installed.jsp
Run as admin.
1. Put your phone into Download Mode.
2. If you have not used Heimdall, you will need to set up the driver for device recognition.
3. Once your device is connected, the DEVICE STATUS should show: CONNECTED. The long FLASH bar will also turn on for flashing.
4. Click on the FLASH button. (In my opinion: I recommend that you do this in a safe environment. Do not disturb your phone will flashing this firmware. Turn off Antivirus. Do not run any other programs, upload/download/youtube/burning DVD etc)
5. Once it has completed, your phone will reboot. You will hopefully see the ATT logo and reboot into STOCK UCLB3.
6. If it did not work, you will have to put it back into DOWNLOAD mode and (8.21.2012:edit for clarification), try flashing it again. Use a different USB port, use a different usb data cord.
7 Try flashing again until it is successful. Once it goes through correctly, flash a second time, with the FLASH BOOTLOADER box checked. This is more likely if you never had proper Gingerbread bootloaders on your phone, if you are coming from FROYO or if you never had Odin a Gingerbread leak to get your bootloaders.

Recovery Kernel
RECOVERY:
(6/4/2012 - READ POST #3 ALSO)
After you have flashed the UCLB3, some of you may want to have Red ClockWorkMod (CWM) recovery to flash another ROM.
Put your phone back into DOWNLOAD mode after your phone has booted up.
Flash this package. It is Entropy512's DD kernel. It will boot your phone completely.
Once the phone has booted into stock ROM, use the three fingers technique to get into recovery.
When in CWM:
I recommend the following to get the cleanest flash that has not failed me.
1. Wipe data/factory reset.
2. Wipe Cache.
3. Go to Advance: wipe dalvik cache.
4 Go back and into Mount and Storage: format system, format data, format cache.
5. Go back to main and flash your ROM.
Recovery Mode: Power off, hold both volume buttons and the power button at the same time. Samsung logo should come on. Let go only the power button, Keep holding the volumes buttons for 12-15 seconds and let go.

Optional recovery
Zen's Kernels for RECOVERY
This post contains links to Zen's Kernel Packed in Heimdall-1-click.
These can be installed in DOWNLOAD MODE.
They can be flashed just like Entropy's DD.
How are these different? Here is Zen Arcade's Thread:
In essence, there are 2 cores. A16 and B14.
The A16 can be overclocked to 1600mhz.
The B14 can be overclocked to 1400mhz.
Both are custom kernels design to run Gingerbread on your Infuse. They have clockworkmod, cifs, MHL HDMI output and many other features.
Check out Zen Arcade's original thread.
How are these used?
1. If you have a stock GB UCLB3 and you want to root it, flash this in download mode. Nothing else is needed. After that, you can flash my root pack, HERE.
2. If you want to flash a custom ROM. After you have odin or heimdall a GB stock package with bootloaders, and you need CWM recovery, you can flash any one of these kernels and then boot into recovery and then flash your ROM. You don't need to root anything or 3e anything. Just flash the kernel, boot into recovery and flash the ROM.
**To eliminate any voodoo or no lagfix file system problem, I recommend that you locate on your SDCARD the /Voodoo folder or files and delete them. Then the kernel will auto convert your system to EXT4 VOODOO LAGFIX ON.**
I suspect many SOD's are caused by lagfix mismatch.
3. If you want to OC or UV your CPU/GPU, you can also use these kernels on whatever GB ROM you are running.

either one is ok.
if you dl mine,
run it. if it doesn't boot on the first uclb3 flash, flash it again the second round with bootloader check.
it should boot into uclb3.
then use entropy kernel to get cwm. follow instructions in post #2. the flash what you what.
it can't get any easier.

[ODIN][UCLB3] AT&T 2.3.6 Gingerbread with root and CWM recovery option - Infuse 4g

[ODIN][UCLB3] AT&T 2.3.6 Gingerbread with root and CWM recovery option - Infuse 4g
ABOUT
--------------
These Odin flashable tar.md5 packages contain the stock AT&T 2.3.6 Gingerbread release for the Samsung Infuse 4G with root added.
For those who are interested, there are also rooted options below that have busybox and are deodexed and zipaligned. An option is also provided below that includes CWM recovery and a few extras.
These rooted Odin packages do not contain bootloaders. Have rainbow distortion and want GB bootloaders to fix that? See question 1.) in the FAQ below for an explanation, warning, and link to a separate package that contains and flashes Gingerbread bootloaders.
The first two versions below use the stock UCLB3 kernel and have stock recovery. The third option below uses Entropy's Daily Driver (April 5th, 2012 test kernel with working MHL HDMI out), and includes red CWM recovery. For more information about Entropy512's kernel, go HERE.
INSTALL
--------------
1.) Download Odin from HERE and extract the program from the .zip file.
2.) Download the version you want. Use a program like 7zip to extract the Odin flashable tar.md5 from the .rar file.:

3.) Install Samsung Kies to install the latest Samsung USB drivers. This can be found HERE.
Reboot PC. Then, attach phone via USB, and allow drivers to install.
4.) In recovery, wipe all user data and wipe all cache data, BEFORE flashing. If you don't do this, I can't guarantee that your phone won't loop at the AT&T boot animation, or that you won't have other issues.
Put phone in Recovery Mode (Turn phone off, disconnect USB cable, hold power button and both volume buttons, release power button when Samsung logo appears, continue to hold volume buttons until recovery screen appears.). In recovery, choose and follow prompts for options to wipe user data and to wipe cache data.
5.) Place phone in Download Mode (Remove battery, hold down both volume buttons, replace battery, attach USB cable, and then continue to hold volume buttons until the phone enters Download Mode.).
6.) With phone in Download Mode, open the Odin exe. In Odin, if the phone is recognized, the window under ID:COM will turn yellow.
7.) In Odin, click on "PDA" and browse to the tar.md5.
8.) Select the tar.md5. Make sure it shows up in the PDA window, and then click on Start. Do not power off or disconnect the phone while Odin flashes the package and reboots the phone.
9.) You're finished. You now have stock AT&T 2.3.6 Gingerbread (UCLB3) with root.
NOTES
----------------
a.) If you skipped step 4.) and your phone boot loops at the AT&T boot animation, hold down the power button and both volume buttons until you enter recovery. In recovery, wipe all user data and wipe all cache data. Reboot and the phone will boot into rooted 2.3.6 Gingerbread.
b.) If everything has been done correctly, the Setup Wizard will appear when you first boot Gingerbread. If the phone first boots into Gingerbread, and you don't get the Setup Wizard, go to Settings / Privacy / Factory data reset and choose "Reset Phone".
FAQ
-----------------
1.) I have rainbow distortion in recovery or in the boot animation. How can I get Gingerbread bootloaders to fix this?:
You can download THIS .rar file, extract using 7zip, and flash the tar.md5 package in Odin (use the pda slot). Flashing Gingerbread bootloaders will correct rainbow distortion in recovery and in the boot animation. Only flash these if you are having issues with rainbow distortion, and only if you have had success flashing other, less dangerous items in Odin. If something happens to cause a flash of these bootloaders to fail, then you run the risk of bricking your phone. See THIS post and THIS post for more of an explanation of why bootloaders weren't included in the rooted UCLB3 Odin packages.
2.) Isn't there a way to root stock UCLB3 Gingerbread without flashing these Odin packages?:
Yes. See THIS how-to thread that I put together for an explanation of how to root stock UCLB3.
3.) How do I get CWM recovery if I flashed a version with the stock kernel?:
If you didn't flash Option C with CWM recovery already included, you can flash a custom kernel that includes CWM recovery by using SGS Kernel Flasher on the phone. Find and install SGS Kernel Flasher in Android Market / Google Play Store. Then, place the zImage of a compatible custom kernel that includes CWM recovery on your internal sdcard, and flash using SGS Kernel Flasher. Entropy's Daily Driver, includes red CWM recovery, and can be found HERE.
4.) My phone is displaying something that looks like this: Phone-!-PC. What is this, and can I use these Odin packages from here?
That is still download mode. If you reach that screen, a flash has been interrupted or has failed, and you are in a type of backup download mode. Reset Odin, and start over with your flash. These packages will flash in this mode, just as they will in regular download mode.

Przekret for the Samsung UCLB3 leak
Everyone in the Infuse 4g XDA forum
Hope this helps someone out. Please use this thread for any questions or comments about using the Odin packages. It's okay to ask UCLB3 related questions here also, but remember, I didn't create the firmware. That one is on Samsung / AT&T, and these are just packages provided to make it easier to get root and /or CWM recovery with that firmware.

Good Job, bro.

Very nice. Thanks

Using this for a day. And I like it very much. All functionas that I need is working perfectly for now. With root I can customize stock as I want. Thanks. As for me this is best ROM out here!

Is there any interest in a deodexed version also in this format?

Yes there is. The deodexed version has a lot less lag. I ran the leak for about a month when it was released and then i flashed the deodexed version and you can tell a big difference.

Yeah, when I was using UCLB3 (on CM9 now), I had it deodexed and preferred it that way.
When I get home from work, I'll make and upload a deodexed version in this format.

Thanks for taking the time to do that.

Cant tell about this for sure. I've used only UCLB3 stock and [UCBL3] [Dev]astation [2.3.6]. First is good and have many usefull functions and they are working fine (fast GPS, Car Holder, correct bluetoth and many other). Second one is a lot faster but not all functions are working, GPS is realy slow also stability is not so great for me. Right now current your ROM is good for me becouse it has thing that I needed being on UCLB3 - ROOT. If deodexed version will add speed and will not make this ROM less stable, than people will love it. Me for sure =)

This will just optimize system apps and framework stuff that depends on .odex files, and will make it easier to mod system and framework files. Nothing major; everything will still work like stock. I'll keep the stock version available also.

jscott,
The tar you packed was with the stock kernel, correct?

Correct. This package uses the stock kernel. That being said is there any interest also in another version w/ Entropy's Daily Driver
and CWM recovery in this format? I'll have to get Entropy's permission, but can do that also.

Thanks...
Edit: Never mind i decided to flash this with other infuse and will update later the result...Thank a lot....

I was curious, mostly.
2 wks ago, I had put together a method to root the UCLB3 when we saw a spike in how to root this thing in the Q/A everyday. It consisted of a cwm-flashable that installed busybox and superuser, then deleted most ATT bloats. And then installed google talk video from the G-Nex.
To get to cwm, I had a Heimdall-1-click of Entropy's DD kernel. I suppose any GB insecure kernel would work too. Entropy's latest would be nice because it would also have HDMI and CWM recovery.
After the kernel flash, you can boot into recovery and flash the cwm package.
And then UCLB3 would be "rooted", busybox and SuperUser.apk. Plus some bonuses (Gtalk, Gvoice, Terminal Emulator and minus ATT bloats. It was painful but I left Facebook and a few others in place)
Once you started with the Tar for Odin, I made a Heimdall-1-click for this rooted ROM as well. What was odd was that I had corrected the vold.fstab for the external sdcard access, before copying over the factory.rfs.
After the package was put together, the vold.fstab reverted back to mm2 instead of mm1 for the stock kernel.
Odd...
I didn't know if that happened to you or not.
Anyway, imo, I don't think you need to worry about another version with Entropy'd DD, I think most users should be able to use SGS-Kernel flasher to get to cwm.
About the deodex aspect, dman already made up a deodex version...I thought it was odd that others didn't use it. It may also be redundant too, but that's just my opinion.
I think the Odex apk do not make dalvik caches. Thereby, have a fast boot time and less chance of cache corruption. I've been using the odex rooted version with the stock kernel, and have noted an initial lag, but after leaving the phone alone for 20 minutes, it is pretty responsive and snappy.
This stock rom is missing Lidroid's, Battery mod, and a few other things..but then, after you add those, lol..we are running vagabond, spartan, pharmnerd midagu's etc...
If anyone wants a heimdall 1 click...

I run a deodexed version and think having a odin version of it is just a extra way of having a lb3 deodexed available for me to use if need be. I dont use heimdall so odin is my preference.

Yes. I know that some odd people prefer Odin and others prefer heimdall. Jk..
Some use both. Either way, nbd.
I was thinking that there was already a deodex uclb3.

Odin ftw .

Yeah, I get that great options have already been presented to do all of this. Didn't mean to step on any toes.
Some posters were asking for an Odin option, so I made one. I personally prefer Heimdall myself, but maybe Odin is easier for some.
This is mainly just another tool to get rooted stock UCLB3. Hopefully it helps some.
When I get home, I'll still do a deodexed version, but agree that it's easy enough to use SGS Kernel Flasher to get CWM recovery.

qkster, that didn't happen to me when I made this package. But, that is probably because of the process I used to get the factoryfs.rfs. I got everything exactly how I wanted on the phone, including setting up vold.fstab after switching kernels back and forth during the root process, and then I did a system dump using dd on the phone after doing a factory reset.
