[Q] ROM.zip to Flashable Odin.tar? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello Guy´s
Iam from Germany, i love the ROM Community from XDA an Android-Hilfe.de !
Your work is great!
So here is my Question: Is it possible to Convert a ROM.zip to a Odin.tar ?
Thank you so much for your help!

Usually No.
But there is some guide somewhere to make odin flashable rom. Search it on google

Why do you want that?

I was wondering the same. I can see the use of converting a .tar to .zip so you can flash a stock rom from recovery, but not the other way round;" Mobile Odin Pro is only useful if you can boot up the phone", and flashing a .zip from recovery is much safer than using a USB, PC and Odin.

Can not any one make rom for stock as we buy it?
making a rom is a tedious process, i sugget u use kdz update or just forget it
If you read the post I linked, you'll see that you can download the stock rom. Then just look for the flashing original rom thread in Developers area. Can't search it now since I'm on phone.

But hav to flash using kdz firmware updater and i want to flash it like we flash custom rom

This cannot be done via recovery. Because after booting root will be there. And so will superuser app.
Only way via recovery is to restore Nand of your official rom and then unroot it. Ask anybody to give you a Nand backup of official rom if you didn't make it. Now this wouldn't be hasslefree for others to give you a Nand backup because it contains their private info also like contacts, messages also. So best way is via kdz. But you can keep asking for a Nand backup.
Another is hidden in first reply post I gave you.
1. Void + sapps = official rom
2. Now unroot it via the application you rooted your phone. In my case it was z4root.
3. After unrooting uninstall the root application.
4. Now your phone has official rom.
You can include a few other bloatware before unrooting to match perfectly.
You may copy via root explorer. Copy to system/apps and set permissions as rw, r,r.
This is an innovative way. So I told you three ways.
1. Kdz
2. Nand restore of official rom
3. The above mentioned innovative way.

it is not possible...you will surely brick your device or you may end up with a fastboot scenario be careful before trying anything.oh and by the way KDZ is way too dangerous if any thing goes wrong you will surely have a beautiful brick on your desk.
nand back-up before custom recovery
Slight OT question here.... Is it possible to make a nand back-up before installing custom recovery? If it is possible, please post instructions or the link to the instructions here
Thanks

hai friends,
how to intall stock rom in a custem rom phone?
Hence the rule : always take a nand backup between different roms. If you go back a few pages in the general section you will find a nand backup of the stock rom.

ok
but if i want to remove completely(means remove recovery and rom)
what is the method for that purpose?
Is it done by lg kdz updator tool
Use kdz update only as a last resort! It can be dangerous.
For your problem, first restore the nand backup. Then in the development section, there is a thread by ciaox that has flashable zips of all recoveries, including the original recovery. You can flash this zip and your recovery will be restored to the stock one.

KDZ transfers data in realtime from your PC to your phone SO if something goes wrong with your PC (it crashes, freezes, power surge etc) you get a bricked device which can be unbricked in very rare cases.
It's easy to use but very very dangerous.

If you flash the zip 'Original_recovery_thunderg.zip' (or something similar) then yes your custom recovery will be removed and it will get reverted to stock recovery.

openOptimus is a very stable and fast ROM; I'm very pleased with it. Works very fine with francisco v13.3 kernel and the battery life is pretty good.
@zalman: did you wipe everything before installing the new rom? By that I mean data, cache, dalvik, system.

Rooting without Odin

Now this may be a silly question and am sure I should know better but is there anyway to get root without using a pc and Odin??
Have tried Darkytool, Rom Manager, Kernel Manager and CWM app to flash CF-Root but no joy...
You can root without Odin using the quick root guide in the firmware thread but you'll need a PC.

Thanks for the help. At least I know in future it isn't possible without a pc.
I'll have to wait until I finish work as I.T. have locked down any unencrypted usb connections
Do you know if you can use mobile odin? It supports .tar files....

Just download and flash it.
If you want more detailed answer, then you need to write more details to your question...
Download the firmware you want, put phone into download mode, connect to odin and flash the tar file in the pda box.
If your struggling to find the firmware, then download checkfus and get it from there.

XXMB2 flash via recovery

Due to the lack of a pc can I not flash via odin. You can make the flash xxmb2 through recovery?
Sorry for my bad english and thanks
You could make, had you copied the system folder and made a flashable zip with it.
Sent from my GT-S5830i using xda app-developers app
Possible, but i do not have the means to do so. Could you do it?
What are you requestioning is not available for our devices. There is an Odin Mobile app but its too risky. Even if you will make the flashable zip with contents of XXMB2 system files it will lead on a brick. I am sorry! The only way is flashing via ODIN.

You could do the porting mobile odin on this phone. The problem now is that there is no one who could do it.

Its tested only on Ace not Ace I and i don't want to test it because it may lead to a hard brick and a dead phone. I suggest you to don't try it.
