Hey guys, I am working on getting some custom roms / custom recovery setup on the fascinate, and right now i am at a standstill really until we can get the files for restoring the device via Odin. Im a bit new to Samsung android phones, and the partition structure is a little different than what i am used to, as well as the restore functions. If anyone has access to the restore files for a stock fascinate please post them!

Thats not what im looking for exactly. Im looking for the full flashable boot / system / pda / modem tars for Odin.
Yup - wrecked mine screwing with the lagfix. May have run it twice in a row, accidentally... I'm probably going to need to reflash it. The sooner we can get a firmware image the better.

Exactly. Ive tried all my connections in the android world, and still come up with nothing. I really dont want to start working on a recovery without a way to flash it back a safe way with Odin or redbend
yea i was all syked thinking i had found it on samsung-firmwares.com but when i flashed it it turned out it was for a us cellular fascinate! well i guess we now know which iteration of the galaxy s us cellular is getting lol. but im stuck with a brick until i get that file (or if i can convince them to give me a replacement)

the pit file is used by ODIN to know where to place the restore files. im trying to restore using other pit files that work on vibrant / epic and crossing my fingers.

No, that's what we have you for. The black magic is only for sacrificial rituals and love potions.
I'd consider calling you a **** or a douchebag or something, but I remember back when there was no URLBot in IRC. One good man decided that he could change things by actually being helpful and linking people to the most awesome and up-to-date roms/mods/hacks available for the fascinate, instead of being a jackass and telling people to go kill themselves or something similarly themed (ludeboy, you **** ;-D). Even as everyone spoke against you in your mad hyperlinking endeavors, discouraging your generosity, I secretly cheered you on. I said to myself, now there is a person my son could look up to. Even now, he's 2 years old and I already fill his ears with tales of your heroic deeds. And when im out drinking with my buddies, I never fail to dedicate at least one shot of jack Daniels to chopperthedog in our ritual pre-shot toasts.

Hi, I’m Christina, and I’ll be glad to assist you today. I understand how important it is for your device to function properly. HTC does not support leaked versions of the ROMS because of this we are unsure whether you will be able to install the new version of the ROM. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused you. Thank you for contacting HTC America Technical Support.
I hate how stupid HTC reps think people are. I sent three emails to finally get a somewhat decent response.
Now that it is quite humerous.... Thank you for that, I needed a laugh. BTW, why are you so worried about getting the OTA? The leaked v3 is very identical to the OTA.... just download that instead...

The ota wouldn't get you root anyway. The hboot image isn't updated by the ota so you would still be in the exact same spot you are right now.

haha like i mean see if anything new comes up by the time i get around to doing whatever i want to my phone. maybe if im patient then something bigger will happen
Well, the only development to come to the eris for a while is going to be new roms. root for leakers is still not here yet, and from what ive seen wont be for a bit. We already have root. and the Eris Master App makes it super simple. just get a new phone and root it. with root, you can install roms that have OTA included, plus better themes, and can do a lot more than with just 1.5 or 2.1 non root.
Just curious, how many developers are working on root for leakers?
According to VZW support's twitter account (http://twitter.com/vzwsupport), "@jfkerekes Yes, leakers should receive the OTA by 5/24. Manual download is not available. *NK"

The obvious answer would be: If you don't like it, don't download it.
You make it sound as if he is forcing you to sign up with your precious email and download from his server..and when things don't turn out the way you wanted you start to insult him and his work?
Oh come on..this is no way to behave on XDA, which i have always seen as a friendly place with respectable and polite posters.
As for the fact that Darkside Agent doesn't have as high a post count as you in here is because he is fairly new to the Android modding scene + XDA. But he is quite well-known and trusted in other phone modding forums..something you could have found out if you had bothered to actually read his website a bit more thoroughly.

Hey guys. I finally traded up from an OG droid to a Galaxy S2 and can't seem to find an updated rooting tutorial. All of them have dead links or don't seem to work. I hope I don't get flamed for this but can someone please send me in the right direction? Thank you.

1st step: make sure what model Galaxy S2 you have (label under battery) as there are over a dozen different model phones called Galaxy S2. OG "Droid" is on Verizon, and Verizon doesn't carry ANY Galaxy S2 model. If you were on Verizon previously, that means you are in the US. If so, and you got a Galaxy S2 through a US carrier (ATT, Sprint, T-Mobile), I guarantee it is NOT the GT-I9100, which is the device this forum is for.
my phone is a gt-i9100. I live in alaska. I purchased it through a local phone company called GCI. I just feel overwhelmed with all the galaxy products out there. A little over saturated, but definitely a good phone. I just wanna root it like I did my Xoom and OG droid.

I had to ask. I'm in the US using a GT-I9100 as well, but the majority of US Galaxy S2 users are NOT on the GT-I9100.
You can root using a CF-Root kernel. Works perfectly fine, and installs CWM recovery for you as well. Just make sure to follow the instructions exactly.
Hey thanks. Honestly I like this phone so much I didn't really wanna root it, but my carrier will probably never officially support the ICS update and I miss having nandroid backups and tinkering around to get the most out of my phone. Thanks for the link.
No problem, but also please be aware of the forum rules. Rule #1 is to search before posting. Not everyone will be so generous.
I gotcha. Sorry for not searching as much as I could have. I have an issue, however. My kernel is 2.6.35.7-I9100XXKI3-CL577579 and the tutorial mentions KG1. Also, there's about a million files posted throughout the thread and I have no idea which is supposed to be for my device. I'm sorry if I'm asking for a handout. I just wish rooting was simpler like on my old phone. I'm sorry, and thanks again/

There's a "Help! Which file do I use ?" section in that thread. Sounds like you read that, since you mention the tutorial that mentions KG1. So you should be able to figure out which one to use based on that. I bolded the important part of your kernel version.
Alright. I found the right file and I'm rooted successfully! is there anything I can do to get rid of the triangle that shows up when I first boot up my phone? I'm totally psyched! Now I gotta search for a good ICS rom. lol.

*sigh*... rule #1 again. This is a question that's been answered literally more times than I have posts. There are many ways.
EDIT: of course, if you flash an ICS ROM, chances are good you will have the triangle again, in which case, there is no point in getting rid of the triangle now.

Turn the phone upside down while it's booting or put some paper over it.
Ha ha. Funny indeed. I know I had better start following the rules, and the yellow triangle isnt exactly a concern. This thread should probably be deleted due to my ignorance. For what it's worth, I'm extremely grateful for the help I've received. Lastly, anyone here on ICS or have a personal preference on what build to download? I'm kinda worried because I love EOS ICS on my xoom but gingerbread is so well optimized and I'm sure some apps won't work once I make the upgrade. So many more apps are compatible on my phone and I'm weighing out the risks.

Alright everyone. I'll be more respectful of the rules and give thanks when its due but I have a dilemma because Ice sandwich doesn't give access to apn settings like previous incarnations and I feel really lost and worried that I'll mess my mobile internet up if I'm not careful.I also tried to research about making a nandroid backup straight to my external card without results. if this is the wrong place to ask can someone guide me in the right direction? Thanks.
You're saying you can't edit APNs on an ICS ROM? That's weird. The guy in this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1554967) sure sounds like he could edit APNs on an ICS ROM.
No. Thats not what I meant. Ive only ever edited the apn of my old phone with apn backup and restore. Apps don't have access to apn settings in 3.0 and up from the research I've tried to do. I didn't know how else to edit them. My xoom is wifi and my og Droid never made it past gingerbread so this was never an issue in the past. What do you do when you update? Write everything down and key it in after the upgrade? I have no problem doing so. I was just asking if theres an easier option. My only other issue is figuring out how to make a nandroid backup straight to my external SD card. I'm unfamiliar with recovery kernals for Samsung phones and cwm recovery doesn't let you access your external card so I hoped for advice on a better one. If I can't ask for help with these things here then I promise i won't keep coming back until I have more worthy questions. I could've done a lot more research in the beginning. If its better for everyone ill just see what happens on my own and if I screw up I screw up.

There are several apps in the play store that back up and restore APN settings. But you probably won't need them. If you do a reset to default in APN settings, it should query your carrier for their APN settings, and just work.

Here is a guide I have put together for the VZW Samsung SCH-I605 Galaxy Note II
------------------
This guide contains 5 sections:
Section 1: How to Root/ Return to Stock 4.1.1 Jelly Bean coming from any rom with Odin
--------------------
Section 1b: How to return to stock 4.1.1 Jelly Bean coming from any rom with Odin
Step 1: Download and install Odin3 from section 1a if you have not already done so.
Step 2: Download this stock VRALJB image and pit file to a windows based pc.
Folks that have accepted the L4 OTA can not use the VRALJB image at this time...for now use Root66 from section 1a.
Official VRALJB 4.1.1 12/9/12- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2040264(This will wipe data and return your device to factory stock like the day you purchased the device. Also Unlocked and Locked devices may use this to return to Factory Stock conditions!)
SCH-I605_16gb.Pit- http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?05cj895zu3tls7z
Step 3: Power device off, hold the volume down/home/power keys until you see a yellow triangle, then press the volume up key to access "odin or download mode".
Step 4: Open Odin and connect the oem usb cable from pc to device. The driver should automatically install( it did for me on windows 7 64bit). There should also be a "comport number" in upper left hand corner of Odin indicating communication between the pc & device.
Step 5: Click on the pit function of Odin and select the sch-i605-16gb.pit file.
Step 6: Click on the PDA function of Odin. Select the stock VRALJB image you downloaded in step 1, then select start. This operation should take less than 8 minutes before Odin will say pass/reset.
Step 7: Your device should boot back up into factory stock 4.1.1 android!

That is a good place for someone to place an order for spoon fed customer support.
I have already provided a solution found in his devices forum.
As there has been no update on progress I figured the issue was resolved.

Judging from the original post, I think you used too many 10 dollar words. Lol
thanks for the help ya A-holes lol greatly appreciated
UPDATE: first: sorry about the A-holeness, lol i had dealt with verizon on the phone for WAY TOO LONG! and you know how that feels
:beating-head-against-the-wall
and for the life of me could not find a solution to fix the issue
Second, i was able to return to "normal" status, apparently the google wallet hack was the problem, but still had no 4G, they replaced the simcard which fixed it and also somehow changed the status back to "modified" ??? then an hour later the phone went into a boot loop vzw said they would send me a "certified like -new" phone, still not sure if i should just accept the "like-new" or keep my original (now working because i flashed it back to stock with some guide that some A-Hole posted )
flash back to stock and forget this website ever existed. you're only going to hurt yourself further if you keep trying.
Wow this is the garbage replies I was referring too. You obviously cant read.i did flash back to stock and why would I forget this site. Ive been here wayy longer than you. And why dont you keep your useless comments to your self. Why would you run your d-sucker to provoke someone. I posted my apology but not to you.

He probably read your first post and quit reading since you were an @ss, that's why I and most others here didn't help you. If you would have just asked instead of insulting everyone here you would have got a link to a back to stock thread, and if you had anymore specific questions you would have been helped. Judging by this response you weren't just annoyed at the time, your just an @ss who has no idea what he's doing, and Iphone would be perfect for you, it's idiot proof.

Glad you recovered your phone.
If it was me I would keep the one you know works. Let Verizon send the second hand phone to someone else.
Just remember that opinions are like a§§holes, everyone has both.

Google wallet hack has nothing to do with triangle notification and 4G signal being dropped. You probably rooted wrong. If I were you, I'll just keep my original note2 and figure out to clear the mess. There is always solution to this and every methods are currently workable.
Ahaha now he's threatening me over pm's. This is wonderful. Listen champ, dickhead posts are going to get dickhead replies. Absolutely nobody, here or anywhere else in the world, is going to pander a friendly response after you insult them while begging favors. Learn this now while you still can, you're going to have a very unhappy life if you can't learn how to cooperate.

My husband and I are getting a couple of new phones. He decided to go ahead and transfer his number to a dummy phone until it arrives, so he can work on getting rid of it. The phone was previously flashed to Page Plus and I'm curious how to properly revert to Sprint. I flashed it back to the original ROM on the phone when we got it - all stock, but bootloader/S-OFF did not go back to locked/on, is that normal? It looks as though the phone is up and ready for Sprint use again, but I'm curious if anyone could fill me in on the appropriate steps to take? Don't want to sell it to someone online and find out that it will not properly work.
I made an attempt to contact the flasher, who guaranteed a flash back to original service at any point in time when the phone may be resold, but the person has been of no help whatsoever aside from telling me to do a PRL update (which catches an error & I informed them of this problem) and to do something else, but gave me the wrong passcode.

You do realize that your thread is still at the top, as almost no one posts here anymore?

You do realize I could do without the attitude, right?
I was on mobile, on Tapatalk, did it really quick by simply going to my "subscribed" threads instead of looking through the entire section... In other words, that means: no I did not know there were no other posts/responses/new threads that may push it down.
But thanks!
Hi @Luna_Sky,
I'm not seeing any attitude from ElMadre.
Let's keep it civil please.
Thanks BD619

Not a problem. Could you please delete this thread? Don't think I'm going to get a response any way.
Not sure if this will help you, but probably worth taking a look at. Flashing phones from one carrier to another isn't my area of expertise.

Also, based on at least one post I saw in a PP thread here, you may be able to RUU to put the device back stock with Sprint service. I'd give that a shot.
