Okay here is my problem I followed the following tutorial step by step until I got to step 7
addictivetips.com/mobile/install-gingerbread-based-miui-custom-rom-on-samsung-captivate/
After getting to that step they tell you to download cm7-captivate-initial-kernel.tar
from
sourceforge.net/projects/teamhacksung/files/
I have searched everywhere for it and have come up with noting. I tried downloading the .zip file for it but odin doesn't take. zip files it only takes .tar .md5 etc..
If this is the right place to find this file please tell me how to go about getting the file. If someone can be so generous as to give me some in depth insite I would be very grateful. I am really lost right now and have my phone stuck in download mode as to not brick it.
Again thanks ahead of time for anyone who can help me find this file.
BTW I have a samsung captivate if that helps any. oh and sorry for the inconvenience of not posting a direct link. since im new here I am not allowed to post links.
Whats in the zip files
Does it contain he files you need
I am not quite sure what you mean when you say does it contain the files I need. But if you are talking about if I have all the files and completed alll the steps in the tutorial then yes I have.
I just cannot find the file mentioned in the tutorial that is called cm7-captivate-initial-kernel.tar........ I really need someone to point me in the right direction as far as this file goes?
Someone please help me it's been 8 hours that I have my phone in dowload mode as to not brick it. I just need this file... PLEASE HELP
Can someone please reply... I really need to use my phone again. I CANNOT MAKE PHONE CALLS... PLEAS E HELP ME
Try changing the zip extension to tar if that's what it's supposed to be. If you haven't already, unzip the file and see if what you need is inside.
EDIT: You may also want to check the Captivate forums here.
Why didn't you download everything before starting the process?

Hi,
I'm very unsure where to put this thread as my device has no forum of its own. I have a ViewSonic ViewPad 7 tablet, but I guess this is not even a device specific question, which is why I ended up posting it here.
I have an image of the stock ROM on my tablet (system.img + boot.img), but I'm unable to extract or flash the system.img directly, which is why I need your help. I've been reading some topics regarding this and tried out different methods, but either I am doing something wrong or the image is not complete. It was created using the cat command in the shell.
If any of you should be able to extract the system.img from this zip file I would be forever grateful, as I really need to get my stock ROM back so that I'm able to have Danish locale as well as text messages.
Thank you very much in advance!

Bump it up
Hello everyone I bring a way to fix this famous error:
"Brom error: s_not_enough_storage_space (1011)" leaves us
when trying to flash flash tools our terminals.
I have concluded that it was something that was wrong with my scatter partitions for example.
So I started to open my scatter and take a look with this tool scatter analyzer and compare it to other scatter another rom
and saw a difference in space.
What I did was open the original scatter with notepad ++ and locate where in the section USR_DATA and partition_size
you resize by one less than it had copied the other scatter, after you tried it in flash tools and this was the result.
I think it will work for any mtk65xx
I hope you serve
A greeting.
Brilliant!! Thanks man!!
I couldn't quite catch what you mean. Can you please make it more precise? A step-by-step guide would be much appreciated.
Can you please upload the scatter file,i have exact same phone and model. MT6572 X410
Im having this issue:
https://i.gyazo.com/ec3606a18990a905a2993b2d72a8d758.png
Only i cant seem to get it to work.
My Rom is Budget X410
Can someone please help me fix my scatter file if this is the issue,or perhaps help me fix this phone another way if it is because of something else. Tried changing the Partition size like the guide suggests on the other thread,but it results in error.
Phone is totally bricked,no recovery menu or access to adb/fastboot. Only way i can fix it is with Sp Flash Tool.
hi there i have to flash tecno k9 now.
i see the same mistake.
In scatter i have the following:
https://ibb.co/yBQsM6r
thanks
edit
Here are 2 scatters:
https://ibb.co/W2t1ZDD
https://ibb.co/59XPnQS
?!
Nobody ?
use miracle box (MOD EDIT: Removed) tool, it does not use scatter details to write firmware
Here you go guys. Please help each other out using this thread on the how to.
It is pretty straight forward. Just read the READ-ME folder.
I highly recommend using the Factory Flasher version A.05 !
Download Link here: https://mega.nz/#F!70hwFCTa!Kiy6R0TeL70QrLGuvOHFAA
ColorOS A.05 will allow for use of the OppoTools.
Which can be used to gain root access.
Such as seen on my guide here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/r7...very-official-twrp-oppo-r7sf-3-0-2-0-t3358552
Look at the buttom for the PDF Guide.
Please do NOT PM me for help.
I won't reply. I already have hundreds of unread PM's. I simply don't have time for replying.
So please help each other out.
a short screenshot guide (NOT BY ME!):
just ignore the device model number shown in one of the screenshots and select the proper one.
Hey,
sorry to bug you, I know you're incredibly busy. I've gone to your provided link and downloaded the R7sfEX_11_A.05_151119 Factory Flasher file.
Only thing is - there is no readme. Not in the archive, not at your link. I need the readme to know what to do.
Am I being stupid, or is it nowhere to be found?
Cheers

i just noticed the DownloadTool is missing from the A.05 package.
Do this to unbrick:
download the R7sfEX_11_A.06_151210.7z package.
unpack it and install the Qualcomm Driver in the READ-ME folder.
run the "Msm8x39DownloadTool.exe" select the device model which is listed in the "Instructions.txt"
with this package your R7S is unbrickable.
if you want the A.05 version.
do the same just copy the md5sum.exe and Msm8x39DownloadTool.exe from the A.06 package to the A.05 package and follow the same procedure.
at everyone using those packages.
feel free to write a step by step instruction (maybe with screenshots) and include it in this thread!
i've uploaded one older version and the latest i could find to my archive.
older version R7sfEX_11_A.03_151105.7z (rooting works with OppoTools)
newer version R7sfEX_11_A.11_160721.7z (rooting does not work with OppoTools, downgrade to A.05!)
i also came across a possible list of factory flasher versions.
R7sfEX_11_A.03_151105.tar.bz2 (in archive)
R7sfEX_11_A.05_151119.tar.bz2 (in archive)
R7sfEX_11_A.10_160421.tar(1).bz2 (missing)
R7sfEX_11_A.11_160721.tar.bz2 (in archive)
R7sfEX_11_A.12_160809.tar.bz2 (missing)
R7sfEX_11_A.13_170311.tar.bz2 (missing)
if anyone comes across one of the missing packages. please mirror a direct download link and i will push it into my mirror.
Can this thread be updated. Had an old phone lying around and need to reflasg. Cant get into download mode.
Thanks guys x
EDIT: I don't need this anymore since I've fixed the problem
Could anyone please help me to upload the QFIL partition dump and the rawprogram files of a V500N LGU variant V50? I tried the dump files for the Sprint variant, and it enabled me to go into the download mode. However, I can't flash any stock ROM, neither the Korean ones nor the American ones. LG Bridge can't detect anything as well.
I think there is a patched LGUP here in this LG G8 thread but I'm not sure if it works on V50, you can use it to flash KDZ which you can download from LG website according to your variant

I think I have already been using that version of LGUP. I didn't have any problem with flashing the stock ROM before. Now I am facing this problem where I can't flash any stock ROM because LGUP always encounters a cross-flashing problem. Most likely, this is because of the incompatible partition dump files I've used.

1. download the Korean KDZ
2. get the rawprogram.xml from the sprint backup
3. download the .exe version of KZDtool here: https://bbs.lge.fun/thread-69.htm. Btw, the link in the tutorial has been outdated, I found the correct URL using Google: https://www.lanzoux.com/ia1u5ub
4. follow the tutorial using google translate to get most of the .img files
5. follow this tutorial https://bbs.lge.fun/thread-75.htm to get the OP.img, because KDZtool won't work for this OP img. You'll need a hex editor.
6. Drag and replace everything in the original Sprint backup with the Korean .img files
7. Flash in QFIL with firehose and the rawprogram files from the Sprint backup
8. You'll finally be able to go into the download mode
9. Now flash the Korean KDZ in PARTITION DL mode, since the refurbish or upgrade mode won't work
