Link is fixed. Because of the google drive policy, it sometimes wants you to wait.
Bootloader is still locked, but pc installed s1 boot driver when phone is connected. Someone should try unlock code, it may works.

The link for the ROM is posted above, download that. Extract that, the password is linked to the post.
-Download ODIN Multidownloader 4.43. Link: http://www.google.fi/url?sa=t&rct=j...n4WHBA&usg=AFQjCNEnkhKjmSRxlKLFcVNdXh8nnFxU1A
-After it has downloaded, extract it anywhere u want (i suggest desktop, easier)
-RUN ODIN.
-Power off your phone.
-Put your phone into downloading mode. Hold together: Power+Volume Down+Home (phone boots to Downloading mode)
-Connect your phone to PC via USB cable.
-Wait for the drivers to install. After that, in ODIN, one of the top line "bars" should turn yellow and some text should appear there.
-Download the AriesVE.ops file and check it as OPS. Then check one package from the top left. Link to download: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=770410&d=1320332631
-The ROM you've downloaded, check it as one package. Then click flash.
-Flashing will take about 9 minutes.
-Enjoy!
Thank`s dude .. I just hitted your thank`s button
Wich part must load, because when I extracted the firmware I founded 2 files:
SMD_CSC_GT-I9001-MULTI-CSC-OXAKF1_EMMC.smd 539MB

All the ROMs in this forum are stock roms from different carriers.

The ROMs here are similar to those updated via Kies. Maybe some applications can be different. I mean it can take quite long to get a regional update. If you're worried about your warranty, just take a backup of your current system.

After installing clock work mod , when trying to install superuser i got some error and it said installation aborted...but after rebooting i found superuser was installed..
while trying to acces market i.e Google play it is not connecting to internet whereas all other applications are connecting to internet which i connected through wifi..
Also the yellow triangle still not gone..Please help me fix guys..?..This is my first post in xda..hope experts are there to help
Sorry guys fixed google play..It was problem with the date..
Now please anyone say how to remove the yellow triangle at start?...
And also i want to know whether superuser is installed perfectly because during the installation it aborted saying an error
Dude do your homework, there are already few threads about removing yellow triangle. You must flash VIA ODIN a stock kernel, or reflash (VIA ODIN) your fw. And then root your phone according to the guide above.
There are also two threads about erasing the download counter, I assume you're gonna be interested in that too.
Error with flashing su.zip means nothing if you find your device rooted anyway. None knows why it is like that.

Kochan ok leave that...
Now i did something and i am stuck in the samsung galxy r with yellow triangle boot screen nothin works..Please help..
Grr this is with warranty
Now what should i do..
I tried to restore and nothing happened after again booting
same place stuck..
waiting for your reply
Yellow triangle is just an additional information that you have flashed an insecure kernel, it's not a problem.
Have you tried to reflash your FW/stock kernel via Odin? that MUST remove your triangle, and that's always does it. Reflashing FW is not equal with factory reset.
Can you please provide me the link for the stock rom...because the link in xda stock rom thread is not working/?
what fw do you use?
Here you have all available firmwares (registrations is needed):
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&t=1&o=1&m=GT-I9103&r=-1#modelsa
Password is: sammobile.com i guess
I9103XWKI5 (2.3.5)
i guess this one...but i am not sure..is it possible to check now..?
Can you please provide your gmail id to my pm so that i can chat directly till i get my mobile to my original state..As am a new user i am not able to post continously after every poost..
And can i restore all the contents from cwm which i backed up after flashing?
U check it this way:
on your dialpad press: *#1234#
Your PDA is your FW.
Here is the link to I9103XWKI5 (INU): http://hotfile.com/dl/138280077/f8390cd/GT-I9103_INU_I9103XWKI5_I9103ODDKH4_I9103DDKH4.rar.html

I am sorry but this is everything I can do for you now. I've got some work to do here.
But how doi chk the fw now since it is stuck at boot..Anyways i guess it must be this because i am from india everythin matches which i saif
a sorry I guess I misunderstood you are you able to enter the download mode?
yes i am able to enter the download mode...Now let me...
I am currently downloading the fw from sam mobile and the file size is 336 mb and the one you gave is 301mb..what is the difference? both are for I9103XWKI5?
I guess no difference. Probably just a compression. Anyway, download, extract rar and flash the .tar or .tar.md5 via odin, according to a guide.
Okay after flashing can i restore the backed up contents?..wil i get back the original state with apps and all data??
if you did a backup, then yes

first you need beni.ops file.. (just google it and download)
and for the firmware either you require a "one package file"(.tar)
or 4 different files BOOT,PHONE,CSC,PDA. You can get a firmware for fit from sammobile.com
last thing you need is ODIN multidownloader 4.38 for fit or later..
open odin.exe
tick onepackage if you have a single .tar firware file.
if you have four files then you need to carefully place respective file in respective option in "select image to download" section of ODIN. leave EFS empty.
Click on start and wait till your phone boots.

Hi there,
1. I am fed up of my Tipo's lagging touch (responding after half an hour, miscaliberation). I update the firmware using Sony companion and tried to install one of the Jelly Bean roms on the stock ICS using CMW. It some how soft bricked my phone. Can any one tell the reason?
2. With lot of effort I installed the stock ST21a 11.0.A.4.22 Sony Generic kernel (using Flashtool). It is same laggy and miscaliberating. Did I not reformat, similar to PC? shouldn't it be fresh and new ?
3. I am not trying to install JB rom. What is the correct way to install? Should I worry about any seperate parts like Kernel?
4. To install JB rom (Paranoid Android) I tried to root the device, but the flash tool says "no root exploit for this version". If i cant root. I cant install CMW. I cant install frest rom. Is there any other way to install ROM?
I am stuck in the above points after my research, and will appreciate your help.
Thanks in advance

Yeah, but those two have the same effect. Repairing with PC Companion is exactly the same as flashing a .ftf. And if that didn't work, PC Companion won't.

Hi everyone,
After being guest for a long time here i decided to register to ask for help.
But first, I want to thank everyone here for the very useful info cuz I revived my old phone and tweaked it a lil thanks to XDA guides. Thank u everyone.
Well. To the business.
I have now a Philips s388_m6582k dual sim smartphone and I did a hard reset due to apps laggin and other problems. But after it rebooted, the 1st use wizard works til a part where it forces closes and stop working. Then the screen stays black and does nothing. I can use the notification area and go to the settings, but I can't make it is to the android desktop aka launcher. I want to try to flash it with the stock ROM to see if I can revive it, but I don't have it and also don't know if it will restore the phone to it's default status as if it were new.
Plz, give me a hand to fix it. Also if I shutdown or reboot the phone from that black screen, it goes boot loop. The phone was rooted before the hard reset. What I can do now? I need to use it.
hope anyone reply me soon.
thnks in advice.
Download your stock ROM and flash using sp tool I think you know how.(If you don't know how just ask) and yes you will get your phone to default version
But if you're flashing your stock ROM do keep in mind that all your data will be lost,so do a backup

Well you don't need to install drivers on windows PC unless your phone can't be recognised. Where are you having trouble in sp ? It's the easiest way to flash stock firmware.

well, i open it, i select scatter, then what i do?
i mean, how i do have to connect the phone?
what mode?
volume up+power: recovery
volume down+power: factory test
as i know, the phone shoulda enter a download mode. so the problem is on how i have to connect the phone.
Just extract the zip file for your firmware open sp flash tool ,select scatter loading and browse through the extracted zip file to see android scatter.txt ,just click download on the tool and connect your powered off phone to PC through USB after and wait for the confirmation.
Here's the your phones driver http://gsmusbdriver.com/philips-s388 with tutorial for install BTW.

Just click download in the tool and then turn off your phone completely (no mode) then plug it through USB wait for success notification.
PS first boot take some time 10-15 min maybe

well, i tried to do as u said, but when i connect the phone, it does nothing. just start charging (the battery icon appears) then goes stand-by.
also, SP flash tool does nothing when i press download. this is, after selecting the scatter. windows doesn't seems to recognize it.
so,
what i can do?
PD: also, here are some screenshots of what the phone does if i turn it on.
the setup wizard starts, then i can go on til it crashes.
anyways, i can swipe the notification/status bar and open settings. but the setup wizard never finishes and i cant get to the launcher/desktop to use it. no matter if there is a sim/sdcard.
so thats why i got the idea of reflash it to fix this problem.
i atacched some screenshots.
PD2: i forgot to mention that, if i try to shutdown/restart it, it goes to bootloop.

do i have to remove the battery or not?
EDIT: after various attemps, i found a videotutorial on how to fix this.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMqUdrsfxbw
and i found what was going wrong. it was the sp flash tool version.
i downloaded the same version as shown on the video and did the same as the video and....
VOILE!!! it worked!!! YAY!! n.n
but now, the only thing that i still have to do, is to get a rom with spanish, cuz i dont want it on english.
but at least, i fixed the main problem.
so here are my thanks.
so, now i need the spanish rom. can u help me to get it?
by now, i learned how to use sp flash tool. thnk u so much n.n
edit: the rom must be android 4.4.2
when I have the ROM in Spanish, this issue can be taken for closed and solved.
thanks in advance.
edit 2: hope this thread can be helpful and used by other users to solve this issue on this phone.

I'm not using this phone so I've had to look up for this as well.I'll share the link for Spanish ROM when I find it .the country of the ROM doesn't matter. Also can you try to change language in the language and input tab in settings

thnks for reply.
well, i cant change the language to spanish.due to the fact that the rom dont have the language included. it only includes english, vietnamit, russian, korean, chinese and japanese. so thats why i need the rom including spanish.
about the country...
i dont care about it. i just care about the rom having spanish included. the original one had english, portuguese and spanish. maybe it was the one located for argentina or latin america. but anyways, as i said, the country/locale isnt important.
thnks in advance. :good:
hope u can help me to find the rom. i already made a search, but no luck. there is a jellybean rom, but the phone runs kitkat 4.4.2 as it was the stock system and the 4.2 one is for the single sim version. and the dual sim version that i found with kitkat dont have the spanish included.
waiting for ur reply.

can't find the Spanish ROM either.
Stick with the English version or a custom ROM like cm12(this is lollipop and is released for your phone ) I recall cm12 having espanol language.
