For lack of a better term I'm a dumb a55! I have bionix-v 2.2 can't find pit file. Do I use stock 512 pit? I also have Odin 1.7.3 I can't get it to launch. I'm sure I'm just aggravated and need to to walk away. Used old 1.0 Odin to revert back to stock jfd. No lagfix no root. Thought I was ready to flash...please help.

you dont use a pit file to flash bionix, you do that with clockwork recovery, but hey I'll give you the pit if you want it.
Woohoo! I think I'm ready. Thank you!

Here is a late heads up it's not if your computer crashes it's when. Get a
dvd rw for a solid vibrant back up. I have a external hd that I use to back my whole computer up. It's saved me big time. Have you downloaded the toolbox yet?
Here you go...

i used the guide for the unbricking the fascinate and the files that came along with it. the files were I used dl09.tar.md5 and atlas pit 2.2. odin 1.7 and even 1.3. I checked all the right boxes and even checked the hash. when i boot up, however, it takes me back to the original samsung's recovery and thats it. what am i doing wrong? am i using the wrong image?
There is a post some where containing an all in one stock di01 odin file. I would link but I am on my mobile app. Just search di01 you should find it.

thank you!! hope it works
Ok for starters thanks in advance for the help i have found a ton of helpful stuff on the forum. im working with a samsung fascinate from verizon 2.2.1 and very long story short a ex-coworker rooted my phone for me and now i need a software update. its my understanding that being rooted prevents the ota update from installing. i never used any of the features of the root except i did the oneclicklagfix and a bloat freezer i also added a superuser app. here is what i have tried 1.i clicked the unroot in the oclf app. 2. tried to unroot using z4root app. 3 tried a factory reset. 4. downloaded odin and a stock recovery file following instructions on here (i get "check image files") the software update has a fix for the call connect issue with the fascinate (which is driving me nuts) i now seem to be stuck somewhere between rooted and un-rooted an app called root checker says im not rooted but i still cant update. please help me out i use my phone for work and miss calls like crazy im hoping the update will fix this.
have u tryed superone click they have a unroot button.

The ED04 update hasn't really fixed the issue according to a lot of reports here and on other forums...
Just odin your phone back to stock. Get the Dl09 radio tar file and Dl09 unrooted bloated rom and then you can do the ota. The Dl09 tar file you will flash with odin then the Dl09 zip file you will flash through recovery.

Do I revert to JFD the same way with GB bootloader as I would with froyo bl ?
Going from 4.0 to 2.1
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
From what I understand you can revert back to JFD normally unless the JFD Odin package contains only an Sbl.bin or only boot.bin...
adyscorpius said:
8. Can I ODIN to stock JFD like I always did?
The JFD Odin packages that I have seen don't contain sbl.bin or boot.bin ! Hence, till that's the case, its safe to ODIN to stock. Please check your ODIN tar packages using 7zip or WinRAR or any other Archive utility for absence/presence of the mentioned files. If they do appear, they should be present together. Else, if they don't appear, you are safe to ODIN to stock.

Pretty sure there are not any ROMs with them in there, so you should be safe.
If you do Odin back to stock, chances are that you'll lose your GB bootloaders as most pit/tar packages will restore you to Froyo bl's.
If you want GB bl's, you'll have to reflash them again. That is ususally what I do.
So Odin to stock JFD then flash gb boot loaders after .
Was wondering cause there was a JFD file specifically for GB BLs which doesn't have a working link

Yep. That'll work just fine.
That JFD was floating around and I might have a copy of it somewhere on my HD, but really if you've flashed bl's before, then you know what's up and don't need that package. It is more for noobs who are scared to flash the bl's by themselves.
Alright thanks bro didn't know what that file was for...
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Beaten drum, but yeah, I used my ODIN files in the noob guide many times to go back to JFD with no issues.
Hey guys I had just started to think that I had seen it all but it turns out that I havnt. So let me start off by saying I've tried following this guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1026746
To get back to stock but when I boot I get to the lock screen and all is fine but when I go to unlock the phone and get to the os around 5 different things force close ranging from touch wiz to settings and to google app packages and I also get a system UID inconstant error and asks if im feeling lucky (but it does matter because I cant get to the home screen seeing as that touch wiz is force closeting constantly) . So... (Deep Breath) I have tryed wiping (factory data reset), wiping cashe partition and dalvik also formating everything I can in the advanced tab in CWM. So please give me and hand with my issue and if you have a file i need to download please post a link with it.
Thanks

I'll say just use ODIN. Download the program, EH03 (if you're Verizon), and PIT v2.2. If you need additional help use this link.

I've already tryed odin and uing the pit it boots but has tons of fcs and errors
If you can find the stock eclair ROM (2.1) it might be worth flashing. It has a 2.1 pit that seems to format more completely and works better for me, then I odin GB with 2.2 pit. I seem to have trouble reformatting with 2.2 .pit and 2.1 .pit works every time. 2.1 pit file is also the only one that will correctly fix ext formatting such as voodoo lagfix. I'm on us cellular so my files won't help.

Ok im pushing now using your 2.2.1 pit i guess if this doesn't work i could try heimdall but i have never used it before and am skeptical to so wish my luck if this doesn't work ill report back
I didn't see you mention it in your earlier posts but are you making sure re-partition is checked in odin when flashing stock ROM with pit file? If not, do it. If so, disregard.

ok so I made some progress I got cm 7.1 to boot up okay but in settings>storage and under internal storage it says total space 0.00b and available space 0.00b so what do i do?
Can you tell us exactly what steps you're using when you use Odin? I noticed the guide you linked to in the OP was a really old sticky. Droidstyle's Guide is the only one that is currently up to date. It doesn't mean you've done anything wrong with Odin, I just want to make sure you have the files in all the right places and the correct check boxes checked.
