while flashing firmware with odin,
is it always mandatory to use the pit-file in the updating-process, or can you just put the appropriate file in pda and continue? the rom being updated is 2.1 just to never one (jm2->jm9).
thanks!
I could not update galaxy s2 via kies so I downloaded the KE7 fiemware and installed it via odin. (It was KE2 firmware I had stock).
I did not root the phone. Will installing via odin remove the warranty?
Hi.
Well I have a U.S. Cellular SCH-R530 I received from a friend. He already upgraded to 4.3 OTA and I figured I would try to root the phone so I could install custom roms. I downloaded Odin and downloaded cwm 6.0.4.5. I put the phone in download mode and tried flashing cwm.. Well Odin failed, I cannot boot back into the Android OS and I have the screen with the message: "firmware upgrade encountered an issue, etc.". I pulled the battery and put the phone in download mode and I have try flashing cwm again, flashing USCC stock rom and I still get a fail in Odin 3.07 & 3.09. I did use PDA or AP in Odin when I tried to flash both the cwm and the stock 4.3 rom. At this point, I'm trying to figure out how to get the s3 working again.
Nevermind fixed my issue. Please delete thread.
I rooted my Galaxy S5 a while back (using Chainfire's ROM) and may now be looking to trade it at CEX. Because of this I want to restore the operating system back to Samsung's standard software. I have downloaded this from Sammobile and have ZIP file G900FXXU1BNL2_G900FXEO1BNL1_G900FXXU1BNL2_HOME.zip
This looks to contain all the necessary files but I can't find any way to install this using Odin as this requires a TAR or MD5 file extension. I have tried using KIES to reinstall the Samsung firmware but this has been superseded by Smart Switch which does not pick the phone up when I put it in recovery mode. All the instructions I have found talk about using Odin to reinstall the stock Samsung furmware (I am using Odin 3.10) but I can't see how to do this.
Anyone have any walkthoughs they could give me?
Thanks
Dave

Are you sure that you downloaded the correct firmware for your device and Carrier? And where did you get Odin? If you didn't get it from sammobile.com it may be bugged? Never had any issues with sammobile.com - You have Samsung USB Drivers installed on your computer?

Did you ever get this fixed? Having the exact same issue. Galaxy S8+ running on 7... cannot do OTA and flashing gives the same errors in ODIN.... SHA256 on standard ODIN (tried multiple versions) and the patched one give the PIT error.... at a loss with this. FW is up to 9 now for this model.
