5. Extract the stock rom using winrar/7zip
-you should 3 files PDA_xx.tar.md5, Phone/Modem_xx.tar.md5 and CSC_xx.tar.md5 or more

[Q] Rooting doesn't work? on a Spica

So I think I may be bricked....
I always had issues installing the drivers for my Spica (Portal here) on my Win7 laptop, but eventually I sorted it out so that Odin would pick it up and I got a pass from Leshak's kernel.
It was operational until I tried installing the firmware; the one that I had packaged with the kernel couldn't install Busybox. I tried a few other firmwires; an older one (which I had to re-root using the spica.ops rather than spica_jc3), CM 7 and CM 7 from this kitchen rom thing.
Those three all returned something like "Could not format system"
So assumedly recovery doesn't actually have root access, and I have tried rerooting it using Odin to no avail.
Any advice? Could it be drivers, is there an alternative PDA file I could use, am I doing a setting in Odin wrong?
Thanks!

I never had a problem with flash spica using Odin. The drivers are compatibile with Win7 - i used Win7 64bit myself
Had a read through and it's everything I've done already!
Note: Recovery can't clear the dalvik cache or wipe the SD card either - seems like a permissions kind of thing
So maybe option "fix permission" could help.
You can find it in a advanced settings in recovery.
You can also try flash in Odin cyanogenmod 8.3 for odin. Is avaible on samdroid somewhere.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
if you can't go to the download mode, you should find other custom rom fir your device and flash it through recovery,
make sure it's custom recovery, not Recovery that came from the device(Samsung)
