Please dont get mad i looked every where to see if this had already been posted. When i run Hard-SPL I keep geting to 260 error it starts just fine asks me if i will grant access to the application which i do and it starts to do its thing but then halts and i get the 260 error and it dose not go any farther any suggestions?
did you remove your sim and sd card?
In addition, if you have not removed them back up your data. Then do a hard reset. Then remove sim and sd card. It maybe an open port problem so restart your computer as well. Hope this helps.
tried
Gave that a try after it asks if it is alright to load the file on my phone it auto resets phone then 260 error happening again im on vista 64 bit and even tried what the main website said for vista users but half the guide dose not really apply so im not sure what to do or what im doing wrong. any more suggestions?
Need Help
Anyone that has been able to run HardSPL on a vista 64bit system please point me in the right direction I really want to set up my custom roms on my phone that I have found! Please help!!!!!!!!
sorry i couldn't help you i always thought a 260 error was due to open connections or ports.
When you downloaded the zip file for hardspl did you use vista's unzip?
If so you may get an error because vistas unzip program sucks ass and you need to use another application to unzip the hardspl software.

Did you go through the connection settings in the mobile device manager and disable usb connections?
Are you using vista..sometimes it doesnt look for a new set of drivers for the Phone when its in tri color mode..try rebooting and leaving the phone in tri color mode...once you do that, start from scratch after it gets all the drivers installed
This advice is thanks to tochill. Try this and see if it works. Vista often does not automatically load the drivers. I used Vista 64 to flash without a problem. It was a little tricky to get it to load the drivers at first but after they are loaded you should be fine. If it doesn't work let me know and I will see if I can find the drivers for it.
Also make sure you have the most updated version of Windows mobile device center.
not sure what to do
When am I suppose to disable usb connections of the phone in WMDC ? and also I used winrar to extract the folder. also the phone auto reboots after it is promted to allow the program to launch to install hardspl and then I get the same 260 error again any more suggestions? Im sorry for all the trouble here I just really want to get this to work. everyone said it was easier to mod tilts but it seems to be harder then my iphone lol
update ur drivers if ur using vista
for me vista was a pain to flash so i just use my desktop which is xp and its happy flashing for me all the way...piece of cake now after u do it a few times

Before you connect your phone.
You don't need to do any of that. What you need to do is DL the USB driver from A/S & associate it with you device in WMDC. There are several good threads on doing it. Start Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=291723
Even tried xp
I have even tried using XP I still get the same outcome my phone auto restarts after I tell it to run the program. What am I doing wrong? I am suppose to run the main file off of my PC not the phone correct? and just go trough the setup?
Can some one tell me how they did it step by step because I have followed the instructions on the HARDSPL main thread and it dose not work. And so I am correct this will work with the new ATT Tilt right?
tried all of that still dose not work any other vista run arounds? God i wish i still had my xp discs
Please feel free to message me on aim username is kl3pto really could use some help.

Thanks that was a thread I was looking for to post to the OP as the next step. I have had to reinstall vista 5 times and each 5 times had to do something different to get it to work.
NP, I also suggest with Vista, you flash HardSPL via Jump. Don't flash ROM's or Radios with JumpSPL, but with the 1.93 SPL, I have tons more success using the Flash HardSPL method than the .exe
Hi there!
I just tried to install Cotullas WM6.1 ROM on my Magician (MDA Compact, Radio 1.12), as it didn't work on Vista I used XP. Entering bootloader mode was no problem, but on the second page of Update.exe I get an overview:
Your device software is about to update from:
[Nothing in here]
To:
[Nothing either]
However the upgrade completed on the PC without an error message, but I got no "100% Upgrade OS Image Complete" message on my device an after a reset there's still WM2003se on it.
What's the problem and how can I fix it?
seems you have no USB connection between device and PC.
you should check it. check if you see on device screen "USB\n\n\n\n\n1.0X"
Yes, the device in Bootloader mode shows "Serial v1.0.2" an when I connect it via the cable Serial changes to USB. My guess would be that Update.exe checks the wrong port. But even if the phone is not connected at all the update finishes without error.
Is Active Sync needed for an upgrade?
Where did you extracted the ROM?
Can you try to extract on the desktop and don't put in any folder and then flash the ROM.
it's on my desktop in the folder "HTCMAG_ROM_WWE_O3", copying files directly on the desktop didn't change a thing
UPDATE: Installing Active Sync solved the problem
yes you need install Active Sync for drivers.
is there previous your ROM 2.03TX?
is that TRUE meaning you couldn't upgrade to anything else! 2.03TX is bad rom!!!
It was no problem with the upgrading-process itself, it was simply that the program didn't find the phone but showed no error message. Might have something to do with a newer driver ActiveSync installed or just some registry values the update-tool needed.
Hello, i have searched all over and cant find a solution to my problem please help. I am trying to upgrade the phone to gingerbread but am having issues with the drivers. The general serial control driver ia the one i cant find or have update through the device manager.is there any way i can add this driver or find another way to inatall the update. All help is apreciated.

Help anyone?

Hi Gabriel. What, exactly, is happening? I'm not sure what general serial control driver you're referring to. Can you be more specific on what operating system you're on, if it's 32 or 64 bit, and what you were doing & what errors pop up?
You can get the Odin version that Raver put in the development section... It's completely stock

I am on xp 32 bit, when kies finishes downloading the binary files and finishes extracting them is when i am having the problem. As soon as my phone goes into download mode my pc asks me to install new hardware or basically a driver. It asks for the general serial. I have tried every driver package i have been able to find with no success.
Thx for all the help

Have you ever connected your phone to this computer via USB to utilize the mass storage mode, flash a ROM, or anything?
It almost seems as if device manager is a bit confused. Click on Start, Run, and type cmd and press Enter.
That will open a command prompt. In the command prompt type:
set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1 and press Enter
Type:
devmgmt.msc and press Enter
That will open device manager. On the menu bar at the top, click View then select Show hidden devices.
Anything not recognized by the PC should have a yellow triangle (or circle..doing this from memory) with an exclamation point in it. I'm not sure where the 'general serial' device would be listed but if you see it, right-click on it and select Uninstall.
Expand both "Modems" & Universal Serial Bus controllers" & uninstall anything that has Samsung Android USB Composite Device, Samsung USB Composite Device, Samsung Mobile Device, Samsung Mobile Modem, etc.
Once that's done, try reinstalling the drivers either through Kies mini or through one of the other downloads.
Thanks for the help Stephen,
unfortunately i have not had success. I tried all you posted with no luck. I am now getting a xml parsing error from kies when i plug my phone in and choose kies update on my phone, i have no idea what else to try.

Hey Gabriel, sorry that didn't work out. As for the parsing error, I would probably just uninstall and reinstall Kies. Although this doesn't specify our model of phone it does reference USB drivers & may offer assistance:

***ONLY FOR RELAYS RUNNING ICS 4.0.4***
Samsung had just released the official Jelly Bean 4.1 update for this phone on April 22 or so and this root method only works for Ice Cream Sandwich devices.
I know there's already a thread of how to root the ICS Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G which is right here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34515281 but I thought that it may be hard for some people to do it without a visual tutorial. Here's my helpful tutorial video of how to root the Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G: https://plus.google.com/u/0/108388305247615258469/videos <-- You can easily find the video because it's the only video on that album.
Files Needed:
Winrar: http://www.win-rar.com/download.html?&L=0
Odin v3.07: http://www.4shared.com/zip/CGo6TP1O/Odin307.html? or for the latest and updated versions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1738841
Rooted System IMG: http://www.4shared.com/rar/nhGK59WR/SGHT699_rootedtar.html?
CWM File: http://www.4shared.com/zip/wLHTlktW/cwmtar.html?
If none of the links above work, message me at [email protected] or reply to this topic and I will reupload the files.
Steps:
1) On your phone, go to Settings-->Developer Options and turn on USB Debugging.
2) Turn off your phone and put it in Download Mode/Odin mode.
3) Download the odin307, sght699_rooted.tar, and that cwm.tar files from the links given above.
4) Extract all the files with WinRAR or other file extracting programs.
5) Open Odin v3.07
6) Make sure that it says "Added!" on the bottom left box. If it doesn't say Added, unplug and plug your phone from the computer.
7) Deselect/Uncheck "Auto Reboot" and "F. Reset Time"
8) Click on Phone and a pop up should come up.
9) Find the SGHT699_rooted folder that you extracted in Step 4 and open the file inside it.
10) Click Start. This will take a while but it should not take more than 14 minutes.
11) Once it's done, click Reset.
12) Unplug and plug your phone again. It should say "Removed!" when unplugged and "Added!" when plugged on the bottom left box.
13) Deselect/Uncheck "F. Reset Time" but this time, keep the "Auto Reboot" marked/checked.
14) Click on PDA and a popup should come up.
15) Find the cwm folder that you extracted in Step 4 and open the cwm.tar.md5 file.
16) Click Start.
Once it finishes, your phone should reboot and be rooted. To check if it is actually rooted, go on Applications and find Superuser. If it is there, then you are rooted. Enjoy!!
Very nice. You are missing information, need to add the original posts/threads for the files that you mirrored so we can get version numbers and dates associated with the downloads. Feel free to edit the wiki in my sig if you want to help!
Ok. Thanks, but there's a problem. The files I mirrored other than Odin v3.07 are gone. The original link where the original tutorial was is gone. I had the link in my bookmarks but when I click on it, the webpage is unavailable. Ive tried viewing it from other computers and devices and it still wont work. So I decided to make a new one. Thanks again! The links should be updated in a few.

USB won't connect properly; want to un-root
You're rooting video was very helpful.
However, now that the phone is rooted, when I try to connect to my computer with USB cable, I get error message to the effect that the computer can't recognize the hardware ID of the device, so can't back-up the files on the phone or the SD card. I have all the latest Samsung USB drivers, and the computer recognizes that a Samsung device is connected, but the USB connection fails anyway.
How do I un-root the phone - do I have to boot up in download mode and use ODIN? Will this wipe my data, or just go back to the unrooted ROM and keep my data intact?

Oops, sorry. Forgot the part of your reply that said you've installed all the drivers. What do you mean by it can't recognize it? Does the SGH-T699 still show up on your My Computer?

When I connect the USB cable, Windows has a popup message that says:
" Hardware ID missing
Windows cannot identify the device plugged into the Samsung Mobile USB Composite Device.
For assistance, contact the hardware manufacturer"
Sometimes it tries - and fails - to install the MTP device driver.
However, when I go into Windows Device Manage, it does list SAMSUNG Android Phone | SAMSUNG Android ADB Interface, and when trying to update its drivers, it says I have the most up to date ones installed.
- What does "Hardware ID missing" mean? How do I get the phone to communicate with the computer using USB?
I thought it might have to do with Android Ice Cream Sandwich and the media device (MTP) protocol for USB, but, I had no problems getting the computer to recognize my son's (unrooted) Galaxy S 3, which also has ICS and is pretty similar to the Galaxy S Relay 4G. That's why I suspect the problem is with my rooted version.
Is there anything else I should try before un-rooting the phone?

Install kies or the USB driver directly from samsung.com. Try the USB driver first, then kies if it doesn't work.

Already tried both. USB driver is OK, the problem is with MTP. Kies only works via WiFi; does not recognize device with USB. I also tried Samsung tech support's suggestions, none of which changed the situation

Have you tried downloading the SDK Manager from "http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html"? Open the big file that you just downloaded and open up SDK Manager. Install the Google USB Driver and as well as the Android SDK Tools and Android SDK Platform-tools. Once downloaded, go back to the android-sdk-windows folder and go to the "platform-tools" folder inside and hold Shift and right click on "adb" and select "Open Command Window Here" of something like that. The command prompt will open. Type in "adb devices" and tell me what comes up. If you see your device(It should be a bunch on numbers and letters) on there, it means it is recognizable. This might not solve your problem as I do not know what "Hardware ID missing" exactly is. But I will do some research.
I did as you suggested, and was able to see my phone when I ran "adb devices" from the command prompt. And, Windows, recognizes it too, because when I click on the button to remove attached USB devices, it lists SAMSUNG_Android_SGH-T699. But, I still get the hardware ID missing message whenever I connect the USB cable. Frustrating! But, thanks for trying to help me - you seem very knowledgeable.
What you can try and do to fix the USB hardware error is go to control panel then go to "uninstall a program" and uninstall the samsung driver once you uninstalled it reconnect your phone and let it reinstal the files and i believe it should fix your problem
Samsung Noob here with a question.
Ok, I know this is gonna sound kinda noobish, but I come from HTC phones, and this is my first Samsung. Do I need to flash ClockworkMod Recovery on this, or do I flash a rom to the 4G Relay using Odin? If I use Odin, can someone give a quick overview on how?

you'll need to install a recovery as you did on HTC as ROMs usually come as recovery-flashable zips.
there's a cwm recovery available here which can flashed using Odin. If you don't like the cwm on the relay you can flash TWRP from cwm over it. TWRP comes with more options and the touchscreen-control you might be used to.
from (any) recovery you can just install update zip-files just as you used to on your HTC.
I had used the "howto root the Galaxy S Relay" thread, and then realized, I should just SU and reboot recovery. :victory:

If anybody else got this error do the following:
- uninstall all samsung drivers / software
- connect your phone to the pc
- the driver installation should 'fail', but you can access the storage
- install the samsung drivers now while phone is plugged in
After the installation the phone will be recognized and everything is fine - this worked twice for me now, so I guess it should do it.
Alrighty. Im pissed. But not at the Dev's...
I have been trying to root my Verizon GS5 on 5.0 BOK5 (OK5) for about 3 hours now.
When I run the root.bat i get this message/error:
"adb is not recognized as an internal or external command"
then the instructions
Press any key to continue...
So i press enter to continue and it pops up saying it can't find Odin.exe. I click OK and it runs again, can't find Odin.exe.
I have tried:
Downloading Odin separately
Reinstalling the drivers twice
Installing Android Studio SDK (to try to fix the adb error)
Running as administrator
Agressive Googling alternative methods
Crying inside
Re-Extracting the downloadable folder
Using the root2.bat file included and following all THOSE instructions which give me the same 2 errors.
ANY ideas? Please? Im f*cking dying here.
Just going out on a limb here. Do you have Andy or Blurstacks installed? If so, remove them. Have you tried to going in developer mode and revoke USB Debugging and reselect it and verified that the PC Authorization popped up on your phone.you tried a different PC because I've read where GeTex and others used another PC due to issues with rooting. Oh, have you turned off reactivation and checked the MD5 of your download(s).
