epic touch flashing

Im trying to figure all this out and do it safely. I guess I bricked my 1st phone blue light only no power? I'm hoping to NOT do it again :good: ... Not very easy to get help around these forums since most ppl think you should already know. Im on ff18 and root per Qbkings vid, agat 0.2.1. Im timid on flashing now due to the brick. I have flshed about 10 roms when i was on el29 and never had any problems until i tried to flash an ICS rom.
So if im on ff18 root agat can I just use the format all and flash safely. And also how do you know when your going between roms that you are doing it safe? I want to try a few out?
Gtalk or emial [email protected] for any help offered.
Thank you in advance

Even though there is custom recoveries for ics. Many of us still use the tried and true method by using the el26 kernel.
Also format all does not play well with ics. Just wipe caches and do a factory wipe.

Cool so stay away from the caulk format all?
I flashed gingerbread roms over and over, after a bit my restores wouldn't work , then went for the milestone rom and bricked... I was supposed to use el26 according to vid and I think I tried to do it using clockwork instead of Odin(was I supposed to use Odin)? The only time I've used Odin was to root when I was on el29 and to root after i got ff18 ota. So do you use Odin each time and install the 26 kernel each time I want to install a new rom to be safe? ( if so then cool but I want to make sure I understand ) do I also have to are install cwm each time ( like meaning a safe version of it )
Right now the few rooms I'm seeing that I would like to try is cm9, the universe rom, and I hear about the " goodness rom"?
OK, so heres situation I'm on agat 2.1 and ff18 . Out of those three can I just download the rom and flash one or do I need to go to the 26 kernel and then do it EVERYTIME to be safe? I was sent a link for a safe kernel and said to " use and flash "? That just doesnt make complete sense to me yet?
Any and all is soooooo appreciated! I'm going to get this figured out so I can be comfortable and pros like some of you! I m really looking forward to it and if anybody wants to help a bit you can hit my email and I will not try to just waste ur time lol...

Sorry it took so long to get back, it got kind of hectic at work.
Here is my formula of flashing.
Odin el26- make sure it is in the pda slot.
Go into recovery. From there I wipe dalvik, cache, factory 3 times apiece. You don't have to do it that much, it just gives me piece of mind.
Flash rom from zip. Reboot. Then I flash my modem through Odin- make sure the modem bin file is in the phone slot.
Hit run wait for it to reboot and enjoy.
Also don't worry about asking me any questions unlike most of the xda members I'm not a prick that will tell you search and read.
I can read a calculus book until I'm blue in the face. Doesn't mean I'm going to know how to do calculus after unless I'm given some guidance.
My current setup is -
Cm9- 6/21 build from Chris g
Kernel- ff11
Modem- el29

Odin v1.81 will not see phone in download mode
Hi,
my Epic4gTouch is currently on IMM761.FH13 and I want to go back to prerooted EL29.
I follow the instructions from this link by sfhub
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1409634
I downloaded and loaded Odin3Excution v1.81
a) Put my phone into download mode with power and volume up.
1) The software never recognized my phone and I get no yellow com port. My window 7 PC does recognize my phone even in download mode.
2) If I do the same thing for my wife's phone which is still on GB then it sees the com port, but not on the phone with ICS installed already.
I tried to search and see if people have the same issue and did not find anything. For those who have already downgraded from ICS to EL29
can you please tell me which software you use and how you did it.
Thank you,

Bricked....Ugh

Ok so I've been rooted and unlocked for a while now, but stayed with the stock rom as when I tried out Synergy Nightlies it gave me some errors. So I went to try out CleanRom 2.1, people liked it and I didn't notice any flashing errors. So I flashed it through CWM 6.0.1 and it gave me the yellow exclamation mark saying I had unauthorized data on my phone. So I followed the sticky on how to unbrick my phone using the 2 boot loaders and the root66 stock image. My issue is that when running the root66 stock image through Odin it fails at _XmitData_Read, which seems to be somewhere in system.img.ext4. I've tried rebooting the computer, the phone, Odin, it just doesn't work. So when I reboot my phone after the failure I get Odin auto loading saying:
Odin Mode
Product Name: SCH-I535
Custom Binary Download: No
Current Binary: Samsung Official
System Status: Official
Qualcomm Secureboot: Enable
Then an image of a phone, 2 dots, a yellow exclamation, 2 dots and a computer are shown with the message "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again.
Anyone able to help me?

can you still get to odin mode? also if you have kies installed on the computer erase it.

Kies isn't installed on the computer and yes I am still able to get into Odin Mode.

I'm under the impression that "unauthorized software" message comes from the locked bootloader (if I'm wrong about that someone plese correct me.)
Sounds like you're functional enough to be able to Odin back to stock and go from there - that's what I'd try. See the stickied thread in the Q&A forum.

I would run the FULL VRALF stock image through ODIN to return to stock. That is always the safest way out of a sticky situation.

Thanks guys, according to another post the version of EZ-Unlock I used most likely gave a false report and never actually unlocked my phone. The problem with going back to stock, which if what I'm trying to do, is that it fails.

Could be an USB issue - an intermittent connection would be most likely to cause problems while sending the system partition since that's the biggest. I've had problems using adb from time to time if I plug into one of the front-panel ports on my PC but no trouble with one on the back.
Maybe try switching ports or try a different cable ...

Actually what usb plug are you using on your computer? You should be using one in the back of your computer by the power supply. Seen the front jacks not work correctly for large transfers. Finally, try another usb cable.

Strange.... i was able to flash syergy on thefirst try. Never used odin during the whole process....
If youre rooted you need to make sure you have a custom recovery in place like cwm or twrp. Make sure you make a nand-backup.
I used casual to flash unsecure bootloader, with that and recovery in place you should be able to flash roms without any hitches....
I could never find a comprehensive guide on using odin so i never got around to testing it

So far I've tried 3 different USB cables and both a desktop, both front and back ports and a laptop, each one fails on the write of XmitData under system.img.ext4
I had a custom recovery installed and Odin is only being used to get me back to a stock rom, otherwise I did all my flashing under CWM 6.0.1 or twrp. I think the whole fake unlocked bootloader just hard bricked the software.
EDIT: Come to think of it I remember waking up to my phone in download mode. I think Verizon tried to install the update to my phone while I was sleeping. Granted it failed at the end, but I'm wondering if that did something to brick me now.

If you can get in download mode it can be saved. I woud re download the stock firmware or the 66, but personally i would go bone stock. You may just have a bad download.

Yea, I'm currently downloading at the speed of slug the newest update from the forums, will probably just redownload at home, since it's going to take over an hour >.<
EDIT:
Does anyone have a link for an older EZ-Unlocker, that is known to work, so that I don't get this problem yet again.

FIXED!
Ok, so using the newest stock rom from the dev forum worked. Can someone please give me a link to an old EZ-Unlocker so I can flash without worrying about another massive brick in my palm. I'm guessing that running the original root66 stock rom through dropbox somehow corrupted it.

I personally suggest not using the app if you already had trouble. Just root your phone using the Debug Root method in Development, download the aboot.img from Adam Outlers thread HERE to your phone, and run the commands at the very bottom in Terminal Emulater app (from the market).
That way you know for sure your bootloader is unlocked. This is what I have done and never had an issue.
Edit: Glad you got your issue resolved!

[Q] Help with upgrading from GB to ICS via Kies

So I had downloaded Kies and it was ready to upgrade my blaze to ICS, but I read that the phone should be unrooted first. So I did this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1591601
Apparently that was a mistake. Now I get the following error in Kies:
"Your device does not support software upgrading via Kies" "Current firmware version: PDA:LB7 / PHONE:LF4 / CSC:LB7 (TMB)"
Should I have just upgraded without unrooting? Why is it telling me this? I thought this was the stock ROM? If I keep flashing me Blaze with different ROMs without completely reformatting, will that slow it down?

You gotta go back to the OG rom before the first update.... If u look there is a thread about it on here somewhere

that's a kies issue. lets face it, it sucks. but that's the only tar I've been able to find that puts it back to Samsung Official and allows you to upgrade via kies. If you dont trust the links I have, you can find the tar at sammobile.com but you'll have to register to download

[FIX] "Your device does not support software upgrading via kies" is fine and 100% working. I can personally confirm this ;]
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T769 using xda premium

I never understood why people choose to use Kies... I personally hate it. It is much faster and easier to do it the XDA way and root/CWM and then flash whatever rom you want. If you want I'll post the quicker way to do this. No one has hard bricked from this method and its quite simple.
Root your device (you already have I see)
Install CWM HERE. (make sure not to check re-partition)
Boot into CWM by holding Volume UP and Volume DOWN and pressing POWER. USB must be unplugged. (could take up to 20 seconds to load CWM)
Flash your new ICS modem HERE in CWM
Now you can install any ROM you wish. You can install the stock ICS rom or a modified ROM. It is best to always have CWM just in case something messes up you have options to fix. If you install through Kies you have to install CWM over again anyways. This is faster. Now to install a ROM, there is a common process that will help out....
To install a ROM:
Boot into CWM
Perform a factory/reset
Wipe cache
Wipe Dalvik cache (under advanced)
Install zip (ROM)
Reboot and let your phone sit for at least 5 minutes, 10 is preferred.
Newbie Guide for Modding
You can read the above link for a small rundown on CWM and its available options. If you are here on XDA you probably should have CWM.

I had unrooted my device before installing CWM and didn't see the part that says to root it before hand. I installed it, seems to work fine. Will I have any problems.
Also, I just learned you're instructions are missing a step, I have flash the actual ICS ROM here:

[Q] Where to start...

Ok so I have a rooted infuse 4G and am a complete noob when it comes to flashin roms and mods... I am still on the froyo 2.2.1and hate it lol. Which brings me to my first query, I know its possible to upgrade my android version to the GB and JB with multiple methods but I'm extremely scared that I'm going to brick my phone. It was some forums on here that helped me decide to root my phone so now I'm hoping that you guys can help me take the next step. So whats the safest, easiest way to upgrade my os.. Odin didnt work and I no longer have a computer, so heimdall is out as well. Oh not sure if this is important but I'm not registered on any network nor have I unlocked my phone's sim. Well that's a start. I really hate froyo 2.2.1 so please if anyone can help I definitely could use it.

From Froyo 2.2.1, there is an official build GB 2.3.6 UCLB3 out for the Infuse.
You will need a computer though. Without a computer to restore your phone to stock from soft bricking, you should not be flashing anything. It may be possible for you to bring your phone to an AT&T store and have them update you if you don't have a PC. You will need a computer to root the GB UCLB3.
Where to start? Read the Q/A as much as you can. Then move into the Development section.

Will it be easier to flash the jellybean 4.1.1 from the froyo or the gb? Or would it be possible to just flash a higher kernel? I'm not syre if that would help me or not, I really want to speed up my infuse and stop it from rebooting so much.

Would it be best to use kies to update to GB? I'm a little concerned as to what would happen to my Infuse all around.. What will need backed up?
I have titanium backup but if the app gets wiped wont i lose all my back-ups? For some reason it wont sync to my dropbox app force closes every time I try. Sorry about all the questions I'm just short on the amount of time I am able to browse threads at the moment but I do have use of a computer for awhile so that kinda helps.

I personally prefer using odin or heimdall. Don't quite trust kies and it often gives issues.
all mayor changes will occur on system partitions. Your internal sd will remain untouched, and there you will titanium backups. Just reinstall TB app later and restore apps, not data.

It doesn't matter if your phone is unregistered and locked. You cannot use SuperOneClick on Gingerbread. What you should do is (this is the Heimdall version):
Flash this rooted version of stock GB:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25526643&postcount=2
You do that and you already have root.
If you want to then graduate on to Jelly Bean you must:
Flash ICS (follow directions carefully!):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24901014&postcount=1
Once you've done that, flash any of the JB ROMs you like, but make sure to read the directions carefully. I strongly recommend that you consult the Super Everything Thread for links to the ROMs and tweaks you need, particularly if you are interested in unlocking your phone.

I'm feeling kinda stupid..
Can somebody give me the right link for downloading Heimdall One-click w/root? For some reason I'm not able to get any to work on this computer.. I downloaded the ink provided labeled UCLB3 -DEBLOATED-ODEX - ROOTED - BUSYBOX- STOCK KERNEL on
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25526643&postcount=2
but am unsure if that actually is the one containing Heimdall or just the rom i'm flashing or both.. I'm extremely sorry about my noobishness of just posting all these already answered questions. I've gone and confused myself and have like ten tabs with different threads open please don't hate me. I have a bad habit of asking questions..
Oh and what apps do i need on my phone in order to flash? And I mean absolutely need. I've also noticed that most threads say to format my mounted sd card But i really dont want to do that if i dont need to.

It should all be bundled together. Heimdall is a java based interface so it should just open up. Sorry, it's been a long time and I'm an Odin person!
You don't need any apps on your phone. When you flash, everything on the small partition will be wiped (apps, app data, etc). Flashing will not usually wipe your pictures, videos etc. but it's always a good idea to back up. For now, don't worry about formatting anything. When you get to ICS, you'll need to format as it says in the instructions. Otherwise, if it works, don't fix it!
When you flash ICS and JB, all you need to do is to put the zip files on to your internal SD card (not the one you can take out). You can then flash from CWM (which will already be on your phone - don't download Rom Manager).

Once again thank you all. I'm running GB and loving it. My fiance is shocked at how much help I needed though usually I'm the person everyone comes to with their tech issues LOL. But I absolutely did not want to mess my infuse up. I thought I did but the issue was such a noob mistake that I had to smack myself in the face at my stupidity. Forgot to unzip the cwm ect folder I downloaded. XD not sure I'm ready to try ICS or JB yet though.

The odd thing is you could have updated to GB through AT&T and used mini kies. But at least you are now rooted and able to go to ICS and JB.

And now my phone is bootlooping, computer says the device is incompatible I can only get into the samsung recovery even tho the rom i flashed had cwm packaged in. I tried to change my boot animation following the steps provided in my boot animation thread then again with the steps in tsqers rom thread I apologise if thats mispelled. I tried updating from sd but get a sign error Can get into download mode but same issue with it being incompatible usb device. I tried holding down the power button for 1 minute and then rebooting no luck there. I tried wiping data/fact. reset,... nothing. I tried wipe cache partition,...still looping.
The loop samsung screen two seconds, black screen 1 1/2 seconds,... over and over and over...
My battery is full. Any advice???

Which ROM did you flash and which CWM recovery can you see (which version)?

I used the http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...43&postcount=2 thread to get the rooted rom UCLB3 -DEBLOATED-ODEX - ROOTED - BUSYBOX- STOCK KERNEL.

Saved I think.
So I finally Got it to connect to my comp and re-flashed the rom can i get a link to an ICS heimdall one click package to flash before restoring anything and this happening again?

You should be able to find it on the ISET page.

[How] to unroot samsung galaxay tab 2 7.0 P3113 Enjoy :)

how to unroot samsung galaxay tab 2 7.0 P3113 straight up without any guessing
but guess what i am not the one to be mad at or responsible if anything happens to your device
backup your data of anything
lol had to put that
making this because i was up for like almost 3 hours trying to figure out how to get this done.
first you need 3 files
the latest Jelly Bean stock
http://www.hotfile.com/dl/188869946/30f5c4d/P3113UECLK7_P3113XACCLK7_XAC.zip.html
the odin with root
http://download.chainfire.eu/256/CF...fi-espressowifiue-gtp3113.zip?retrieve_file=1
and
Triangle Away this is where i got the app from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494114
i put the files in order of size so you can download the files as you go
for extra guidance watch
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WzydHUG7XZE
its for s3 but the concept is the exact same
I started from a stock rooted rom i backed up thats what the Triangle Away fourm said to do
Ok while rooted go install Triangle Away once installed boot in to download mode. By turning off the device and holding (Power + Vol down button).
when in download mode press up to enter it this is so you can check your flash / binary count. Once you found out boot restart by (Power + Vol up button) when fully booted
go into Triangle Away before you click reset counter make sure its the same number you saw in the download mode once matched then click the button.
Next after the stock firmware is downloaded extract the file then go back into download mode and press Vol up button to enter it connect device to Odin dont touch or look at anything just click on the left where it says pda click on the md5 file that was extracted from download then click start. Dont touch or look at device until its done because you can possible brick it while in download mode
After flashing let it reboot then skip threw set up to see if superuser is still there. if so (like mine) install Triangle Away app again check the counter. (should be on zero) now go back to download mode and reflash the stock md5 again
and now should be fully stock with no root and no binary count. Take it back to store!! lol or just enjoy stock for new OTA.

#1 this is for the Canadian version of the tab 2. you need to state that.
#2 couldn't you have uploaded this to somewhere else other than hotfile?

First of all, thank you for posting this, wealthy23!
Second, I see fix-this! said this is Canadian version of stock ROM. Is this different from the US version? If so, what's the difference and where I can find the US stock ROM?

Thanks but
I am not sure what he is talking about but it worked on my tab 2 which is US version and
also hot file is used because I didn't upload it I got link from official Samsung site used it so you won't have to sign up for a Samsung account just to get the link and wanted the file to be as pure from source as possible especially when using Odin to flash

I didnt mean to be rude but the file you uploaded is for the canadian version. I double checked on google with the build number. Theres also a US version but with a slightly different extension. Im not at home or i would upload it.

I think I found a way
The thread is a month old, so please forgive the necromancy. I haven't noted it elsewhere, so I post in hopes it will help somebody else out.
I found that this works if you flashed via CF-Auto-Root-espressowifi. In triangle away, I reset the counter. Rebooted and clicked "system modified workaround". Rebooted again. Immediately checked the status and after mauling that matter over a bit, it decided "Official" and let me update. (Or, rather, told me I was up to date) Note: probably a good idea to disable the system modified workaround before upgrading. As of yet, it still says "Offical" after disabling modified workaround & reboot, but from what I've read, it will eventually change it's mind. Hence, using this, I imagine you should be able to keep root and use Triangle Away to check for updates every so often. Not stock flashing required.
If you find these instuctions helpful, pay for the App - he deserves it.

Question if I boot into clockworkmod recovery and do a factory reset, wipe cache portions, & dalvik cache then boot into download mode and flash the stock rom will I still be rooted?

Most likely you didn't change back the recovery plus root still might show up after you flash stock rom did you flash with Odin or cwm?

I flashed using Odin. I installed rom manager but it said it couldn't find root & when I boot into recovery I get the shock recovery.
