[Howto] Get to ED01 (Official Froyo) Quickly - Fascinate Android Development

So many of us are rooted...so many...
Getting to ED01 isn't easy without any radio leak. So, to get to ED01, so you can get yer bran' spankin' new modem!, follow these directions.
First, we will downgrade to DL09.
Do this by flashing this DL09 package in Odin (pda button, pda button, pda button)
http://adrynalyne.us/files/stuff/
Then, download this EA28 update.zip, put it on your sd card, reboot to recovery and flash:
http://www.multiupload.com/F00OYXVO0K
Finally, download this ED01 update.zip put it on your sdcard, and reboot to recovery and flash:
http://www.multiupload.com/LPI21AP8TD
Then, flash whatever the latest and great cwr 2.5.x is (I've not kept track.) Do not use cwr 3.x for now, imo. You can then flash one of the stock rooted roms, or root yourself via flashing a super user package from cwr.
Good luck!
Note: Keep in mind that once you Odin CWR to ED01, you MUST also flash a kernel, or rom containing a kernel to replace the stock one, or it will revert you.
Boot first to CWR after Odin, and install one of the above.

Thank you sir, much appreciated.

Are the ed01 and the leaked radio so different that it is worth the process?

Any difference

There must be a small difference. How can one go about extracting the radio?

Is the EA28.zip supposed to be 203KB?

Unzipping it and checking it appears that it is supposed to be only 203kb. Should be good to go.

Thank you! Everything works!

Well I did all I was supposed to do and I can't root my phone using the Oneclick root..
Any other ways?

In the his post it says there is no radio and that it is most likely the same as ec01. I'm contemplating doing it too.

Are there any mirrors for the DL09 package? Won't seem to download for me, always stops after a random but small amount - 8 megs, 19 megs, etc.

I guess there was a need to be a **** about it, especially after the problem was solved. Thanks for the OP bud. Love your work, by the way.

Nobody has answered the question. Is EC01 the same as ED01? I don't want to waste the time in putting this update.zip in if it will not improve any.

Then, flash whatever the latest and great cwr 2.5.x is (I've not kept track.) Do not use cwr 3.x for now, imo.

[ODIN] Full DJ05 Odin Package

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=94BMLZW8
Flash this with the PDA option in Odin. This is good if you want to restore your phone to complete stock without having to reflash the DJ05 modem, etc.
THIS IS FOR THE VERIZON FASCINATE ONLY.
DO NOT FLASH THIS TO ANY OTHER GALAXY S VARIANT
THIS IS NOT ROOTED YOU WILL HAVE TO REROOT AFTER RESTORING THIS. DON'T ASK IF IT IS ROOTED BECAUSE IT ISN'T.
Also, DO NOT flash this if you are going to bring your phone to Verizon for repairs/exchanges as Verizon hasn't released DJ05
If you want to bring your phone into Verizon due to warranty purposes go to this thread and flash DI01 instead.
Just like Adrynalyne's DI01 Odin package this flashes:
Modem
Kernel
System
Recovery
Formats:
Cache
Data
DBData
Remeber!! Use this at your own risk! I am not responsible if you brick your phone by flashing this to the wrong phone or power loss or any interruption to the flashing!!
EDIT: Apparently my hosting sucks. and so does my upload speed, so i blame that for there being problems with the download. Sorry again! New link should work. Uploaded to megaupload.
EDIT2: Apparently since people don't like to read. This will not give you root and this will put on unrooted factory DJ05. You will lose all of your data as well.
is it normal for odin to kinda "stall" when it saids "SetupConnection"? i haven't seen odin do anything for a few minutes now.
DJ05
Just says fail on start. No Md5 at end of file?
Will redownload and try again.

How long did it take to complete?
took me about 5 minutes to download, i think theres something wrong with the hosted file. because when you save it it doesnt tell you the size the of the file either.. it just downloads and completes at 202mb/windows reports it at 212mb i still havent had it install correctly. and i had to go back to the DI01 cause i did get the phone to PC icon after the unsuccessful flash.
I downloaded the file and it completed at 341MB. Looking at the files I had for DI01 (not the full package, 4 different files) that looks to be about correct as total those files add up to ~330MB.
im not sure what my issue is then. ive redownloaded it 4 times on my laptop, tried twice on my desktop and one more time on the gf's laptop. and they all stop at the 202mb file.
Sorry!
Hey guys.
I see that you guys are having issues with downloading it. I'll try and upload it somewhere else as soon as possible.
Sorry for the inconvenience!
No worries man thanks!!
do i have to re root after this
Yes you have to reroot. This is unrooted DJ05.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
What are the advantages of flashing this package?
So that if you mess up and need to odin to restore everything, you don't have to odin DI01 and then reodin the DJ05 modem. it's DJ05 all in one. all you have to do is flash a recovery clean rom and kernel of choice.
hey, is this rooted?
lol. sorry. i couldnt resist.
i will give it a try and post how she runs.
thanks.
it runs pretty well, for stock. i beleive it does run better than di01, which is to be expected. but im getting rid of it, i cant stand stock! but a very useful tool, concidering the number of times i brick my phone in a week.
thank you.
I just flashed. Everything worked just fine but I lost haptic feedback. Is that normal?

You shouldn't have lost haptic. It uses a DJ05 kernel. Try flashing stock DI01 and see if you get it back

[Q] Fascinate White Screen

First off, I apologize if this is a duplicate post. I really and truly searched and found no posts with the same issue that I am having.
I started by rooting my Fascinate a few months ago with the intention of flashing 2.2 on it. Well, I never did. Now, the OTA update fails every time. So, I try to go back to stock by following the instructions here:
http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile...axy-s-gt-i9000-to-android-2-2-froyo-download/
Well, everything seemed to go fine, Odin passed and so on. I only follow the instructions to return to stock 2.1. I figured the OTA update for 2.2 would be fine from there. And if not, I would continue with flashing a custom ROM. Well, when I tried to reboot the phone I get a black screen with white letters that read "GALAXY S" across the top, GT-I9000 uder that and "SAMSUNG" at the bottom.
I have tried following through all of the steps at the above link and get the same results. I have tried flashing EB01DB_DXC and I just get a blank screen. I can still get in to download mode so I don't think this is a complete loss. I am running out of things to try.
Thanks for your help.
Well, you've just odined whole another world to your phone.
Fascinate is not i9000. i9000 is international version.
You can odin back to DI01.

If you have links to download this \ I would appreciate them. Also, do I just need to flash this in the PDA part of Odin? Do I need to repartition? If someone could review the instructions in the link I provided and give me step by step instructions I would appreciate it. Also, as long as I am up to my elbows in this phone I think I may as well customize it. Any stable 2.2 ROMs you can recommend?

+1. But since you look new to here, let me helo you out a bit. Google "di01 full xda" and "atlas pit" download both of them. Now to fun part. Put di01 tar file in PDA(NEVER in phone) and put Atlas in Pit. Then flash it. Onc ev you are done, update to latest ED03 just for radio via OTA. Then you can root w/ SuperOneClick 1.9.1 > Flash CWM 3.0 by times infinity > flash romnkernel of your choice. (before flashing any rom, it is recommended to wipe data/dalvik/cache and just wipe dalvik/cache for kernel).

If you haven't found it already, I would say the "Unbrick your phone..." post by DaleV is tailor-made for your situation . Go fully-back to stock DI01 including the atlas pit file.
Good luck with it.

Put tar in pda box, pit in pit box, connect phone in download mode, click start, cross fingers.

So what you're going to want to do is get up to ED03 via OTA. After that, boot into download mode and flash this
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/36791/CWM3_Voodoo.tar.md5
with odin.
Immediately after it completes, boot into recovery with the three button method, and then flash comm rom 1.3
If you don't flash a new kernel, the stock one will overwrite recovery giving you back the blue Samsung 2e recovery.
I am not sure how I can get EDO3 version OTA when the phone won't boot. Can I flash it with Odin? At this point I would just like to get the phone working, but Super clean looks good.
I tried formatting the SD card and putting only the update.zip file on the card, but I still can't apply sdcard:update.zip when I get to recovery. When I flash the "red" clockwork and select the menu options by pressing the home button I get a black screen. If I press the home screen again it brings me back to the menu. I have tried all of the options and the same thing happens. I have followed the directions on this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1053567
But, I get stuck on step 11, because I can't get it to apply sdcard:update.zip.
You don't need to mess with update.zip. The instructions you're following will work, but it's a bit dated...
Like I said before, follow the "unbrick your phone..." thread op. Like times_infinity suggested, you could flash dl09 instead of di01, but it doesn't really matter since either will get overwritten by the ota update after your first boot...
Likewise, the ota process(es) will put an update.zip in place and use it to get you to ed03 .
You can do it, man, I know you can!

Well if that's the case, then just follow this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044474
make sure you're complete stock DL09 including stock recovery. make your way up to ED01 with the files provided there, and then flash CWM with ODIN and then flash rom of choice from recovery.
I made it all the way through and thought I was home free, but after installing super clean the phone reboots to recovery. In fact, it always boots to recovery. Either stock recovery or the ROM that I flash. I have not been able to reboot the phone since I started this.

Followed "how to go back to stock..." sticky==WONT START UP, PLZ HELP

Was stuck on dl01 with voodoo, bloatware frozen, rooted, and using launcherpro.
I followed the first link in that sticky: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=908451

okay this tutorial is not working. I went strait to heimdall step two and I get two problems.
1) in step 3 it says "Now drop the usb drop down box and you will find an option for SAMSUNG android composite ADB device, or Samsung composite usb driver..."
I dont get that, I get "unknown device" My computer is 6 years old and i have always had problems with the usb recognizing my fascinate. It always says some type of problem and when i troubleshoot it says no drivers are installed even though i have installed them.
2)when I select the unknown device and hit install drivers i get installing drivers failed.
If you can get odin to work again use atlas_v2.2.pit to format back to rfs file-system. Use the PIT button in odin.

Definitely try to Odin the Pit 2.2 that DMT suggested.
Here's a link to a giude that should help get you back to stock as it isn't as intimidating for some as the un-bricking one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1124391
And if that fails might I suggest trying it on a more up to date PC, maybe your issues have come from that if your pc never recognized the phone properly.

Go to the development stickies and go to the 2 one...how to go from
Cm7 to anything else...that's not the official title but it its something like that. The links for the eb01. tar, the atlas 2.2pit and newer odin versions are all in the first post.
I use odin 1.7..which version are you on? I'm sure if you use odin 1.7 or newer and put the 2.2 atlas pit file in the pit section with repartition checked and put the official vzw eb01 .tar in the pda section and run it..that will get your phone back in stock unrooted bloated form but at least your phone will work and then you can go and flash what you like..but I would try a different odin version and the eb01 with the pit file and you will get your phone back

Well I got the drivers installed and i was on to step 5 but heimdall.exe wont open.
I think I will just do it this way i guess. this is all because of stupid voodoo
Voodoo used to be a p.i.t.a but it really isn't that hard now with the newer cwm supporting both voodoo and non voodoo, the steps myself and the person who posted above me are describing direction for odin..not heimdall.I don't know much about heimdall or how to use it but you can get your phone back and working using odin

what should i do about voodoo though?
i am going to do this as two of you have suggested:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1124391
but i dunno about voodoo. just ignore it for now? It addresses it in that post but i dont undestand what it is saying
using Odin and the stock image it will over write the voodoo
I have never used the heimdall way. I have been stuck in boot loops many times and ODIN has always saved the day!
As long as you can get to Download mode your phone can be fixed

Yup ignore voodoo for now...when you use the atlas2.2 file in the pit section and the eb01.tar in the pda section...if repartition isn't checked make sure you check it...run it and it will bring you to stock with voodoo removed and then you can flash whatever you wanted from there...if you get stuck,p.m.me and I'll send you files with complete directions but it would have to wait till I get home from work tonight..don't panic we'll get you up and running again!
Get the newest odin, eb01. tar, and atlas 2.2pit file, and I would grab
One of the newer recovery.tar files too so when your back to stock you can flash a working recovery if you want to flash some rom after all is fixed....i recommend the 3-30 fix all recovery, but just make sure you get a tar file so you can odin it after your phone is fixed.

interesting.
in the q/a section there is a sticky on how to go stock. not only does it not tell me how to address voodoo(why i am here) but it tells me to go to DL09 and them OTA to eb01.
the method you guys are posting seems much more logical. it sends me strait to froyo and doesnt brick my phone because it just overwrites voodoo. correct?
once voodoo is "overwritten", is it gone off my phone? if not, should i address it at all after this tutorial? froyo is downloading right now

Correct voodoo will be gone but you can just flash another voodoo kernel later and you can flash voodoo over voodoo just not voodoo to non voodoo with out removing it

okay. I am just following what that tutorial says to do. I dont even know what a working recovery is. I never even had a rom on this thing. I have realized I am in way over my head here and have spent too much time dealing with my phone.
really all i want is to be up to date, have root, debinged/bloat, launcherpro so i dont have to use stupid touchwiz. thats basically all i need. maybe in the future i might get other stuff. but for now i think it will suit me best to just rely on verizon/samsung to keep my phone up to date and then just re root everytime. seems much simpler and safer

Recovery..clock work mod...or cwm is the recovery program you will use to install custom rom, kernels, or zip files...I will send you a p.m.later with files, info, and instructions and you can read over it and decide if you want to do it now or wait till you're a lil more familiar with the process..but for now odin the pit atlas 2.2 file and eb01 and you will be stock and be able to use launcher pro.

Cannot OTA update to 4.4.2

I had mk2 installed with root, stock ROM. I tried to update with OTA with no luck, so I unrooted, still no luck
Any ideas how to get the 4.4.2 stock ota upgrade? I got rid of root, but the bootloader still says custom.
Thanks so much
I have same issue.. But I was running saferoot as well

Sounds like you still have something modified on your system from root. You should Odin the no-wipe mk2 odin from here and then try taking to OTA.
Why dint r you just Odin the nb1 and not worry about the update
Sent from my Nexus 5
I had the same custom issue after unrooting. Go back and find the saferoot file you downloaded. ( if you no has go finds again)
Depending where your at you'll need to either re-root and install superuser(let it update) or if you haven't removed SU yet don't do it.
The point is you need to use the uninstall.bat from saferoot to remove the root and then remove root via superuser. reboot (it'l still say custom) and wait 10 mins and then reboot again, should now come up clean.
But from there I still wasn't able to update OTA.
Make sure you didn't have ANY apps frozen via titanium backup or any stock apps deleted. Verizon pulls some crazy sorcery
It will be best to just Odin the no-wope mk2 full tar like I said a few posts up

NC5 is the OTA version, I just got it to work once I used odin.
I got the OTA to succesfully install after using odin as well. Flashed back to a fully stock rom(mk2) and did a factory reset to remove the "samsung custom" bootscreen. Once that finished, I installed the new OTA

I have a question; under build number on my phone it says JSS15J.I545VRUEMK2
Under Step 1 in the link you provided I don't see my build number listed anywhere, so how do I know which factory image to download and flash?
Thanks for any help. I'm an extreme novice at rooting. I rooted my phone for the first time back in December using saferoot/SuperSU and am a real newbie when it comes to stuff like this, so I'd really appreciate any help.

Flash the one for mk2. What do you want to do? Odin mk2 will put your phone back to a like new condition. If you flash the no wipe version everything on your internal will need preserved.

I'd prefer the no-wipe version, but it doesn't really matter at this point since I have all my stuff backed up and already did a factory reset anyway. I'm just trying to get my phone back to stock so I can do the OTA update.
Again, I know this is probably a real newbie question but when you say "flash the one for mk2", which build file am I supposed to download out of these that are listed in that post you linked me to: VRUAMDK, VRUAME7 or VRUDMI1?

The MK2 ODIN images can be found here. Don't try flashing anything earlier than MK2 if you're planning to go to NC5 via OTA.
Kiss root good bye for the foreseeable future once you upgrade to KK.

You do not have to factory reset to remove the "Custom" screen.
Restore a factory stock image. Boot your phone. Wait an hour or so. Now, reboot. It won't show "Custom" any longer.
You just need to leave the phone running long enough for the scanner to figure out that it's now back to stock.

Unable to flash via Odin

I tried to upgrade to KitKat using this method (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2726868). Initially I flashed the AP and CP files as instructed. No errors and the hone rebooted. It was stuck on the boot animation for about 15 mins and the phone was starting to warm up so I powered it down and tried again. Still no luck. In the thread, it mentioned that if boot was unsuccessful, try flashing the CSC file. I tried that and it failed. I can no longer acess anything other than download mode, and trying to reflash just AP and CP no longer work either.
I did get a message about the PIT partition being unavailable. What potential next steps do I have from here?

Thanks for the reply. I was finally able to get it back to being "stable". I managed to flash the AP, CP and CSC files individually and all went successful. It still hangs at the boot screen, but it's a step forward.
I went directly from MK2 (I think) to NC5 via the link above. I didn't need to go to NC2 first did I?

Now I don't remember what I was on. I know I was using Hyperdrive 16. Either way, seems I can't get passed the boot animation for the stock rom. Is there something I can flash back to?
Is it your intention to be able to upgrade and downgrade again or are you wanting to stay at NC5? Root is easy for NC5 and you don't even need a computer. I would still consider doing a full wipe and starting over. Make sure you use the original data cable that came with the phone. The cable and the usb port chosen is often the cause of failures in flashing via oden.
You might be stuck at NC5 now regardless but in case the upgrade didn't take you could start with the MK2 wipe and if that fails, go with the NC5 wipe.

What does it say on odin when u flash the tar file (like <id:0/003> recovery.img
<id:0/003> hidden.img)
It should say stuff like that in an area that says message in the bottom left corner of odin. It would be nice if u could copy and paste the message lines that showed up during the flash unless you already closed odin. Unless u flashed the full wipe tar try recovery booting and wiping cache and factory resetting

The file you sre looking for will end in md5.tar. use the link that was provided to you by unlinkedenergy. There will be a rar file ( same as a zip file) that you will have to unzip. You will put it in the ap slot. Yhe post you used for upgrading was actually a post for upgrading with the ablility to downgrade again. This is trickier than just upgrading.

Like Tulsadiver said, the upgrade might of not fully flashed. Flashing the mk2 tar if you are on nc5 will possibly fail in odin. It is probably ok to try it though. You can root nc5 with towelroot, an apk that roots your phone in one click

Well, that fixed it luckily. So now that I have KitKat on here, I am going to be putting another rom on slot 1 of Safestrap so I don't even worry about configuring the stock. Am I going to be able to get away with flashing Hyperdrive on slot 1 along with the SuperSu patch to keep root, or must I do something on the stock rom to obtain it?
Sorry, I missed your comment about towelroot earlier. I got that on the stock rom, rooted, activated Safestrap and hopefully will be on my other rom soon. Thank you both for the help!

I think that the root will be kept when you flash onto a rom slot (well at least for me root was kept last time I flashed on a rom slot). If you are running safestrap 3.72 (as opposed to safestrap 3.71) rom slots don't work but you can flash kitkat roms on 3.72

Glad you are up and running. Definitely have to use 3.72 and stock slot. Make a backup of your stock rom right off the bat.
