Much like I did for ED01, I created a new Odin for the OTA ED03 update. Once again, this doesn't include the modem, just the base system, kernel, and recovery. It will also perform a factory reset, and is currently Odin only, I'll create a CWM flashable package at some point as well. Enjoy. This should be fully stock unrooted as I was only temp-rooted when I created the image.

Could you provide file hashes? I've had corrupted download with very small errors which was not detected until I use odin.

Umm, if it fails verification in Odin, it doesn't flash. How is allowing Odin to check it harder than checking it manually that you wouldn't just allow Odin to work as it is designed to do?
ok I flashed it! I don't know what's different but it's working perfectly.
Im using the latest otb kernel the latest cwm (in purple) and the ec01 radio.
I even rooted it and uninstalled all the annoying aps. Think I'm going to use this rom for now. Thanks imnuts!!!!
Edit: it just feels good to be "up-to-date" lol
Edit: LOL! such small changes.... Pointless but fun.

I'm very often in places with no connection of any kind whatsoever, its also when I'm between time waiting and had the time for things like odin.
If the file is corrupted, then I would have to abort and wait for the next unknown available free time period to repeat all over again.
I don't see any files on the forums to attain the ED03 modem
Odin has a built in MD5, and created the file to support it. If you don't have a connection or time to flash via Odin, how is having the checksum going to help you? No connection and the checksum is bad, you can't download the file again. No time for Odin, and you probably don't have time to generate and verify a checksum because in the time that it'd take you to verify it, you'd be part way through flashing in Odin.

That's because there isn't a file available.
If you want the radio, you'll need to Odin back to DL09 or DI01 and go through the OTA process

You should use this -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044474
Since there will not be any data wipe in that procedure as you already are on DL09 you should be able to update to ED01 without being stuck at the language menu.
Are there actually any benefits
to the ED03 update as opposed to ED01?

EC01 must be old, right? Not so. I cannot give you the build date however, per request of...someone else. Its considerably newer than EC10, however. For some it may be hard to take my word for it, but I have never lied to anyone here.
In here you will find a new shiny radio, a voodoo or non voodoo EC10 kernel, courtesy of JT1134, and...a ROM!
No more hacking pieces together from other devices. No more crappy radios (hopefully). No more poor GPS (hopefully).
Please do not ask where it came from. I will not tell you. All file dates have been changed, the build.prop has been masked.
Please do not ask for an Odin. I will not give you one at this time.
Please enjoy yourself, I insist.
This ROM is ever so slightly tweaked. It is not a quality release by my standards (mostly because its stock). I recommend folks wait for the community rom to be finished. If you can't wait, by all means, flash away.
Does not include a kernel.
Debinged, browser included.
Debloated, yet contains most stock apps.
Custom boot animation, because I am not including the original kernel.
Dialer voicemail button points to Google Voice.
Your current kernel will be retained. So if you are using a Froyo kernel, you will be just fine.
Xoom boot animation because you will be using a custom boot animation supporting kernel.
Installation Instructions (read carefully)
---------------------------------------------------------
Make a nandroid backup.
Odin back to EB01 stock.

Boot straight to clockwork recovery, and flash my kernel of choice from here:

Boot once, convert to voodoo if need be.
Boot back to clockwork recovery and flash rom.
Boot once, then Odin the radio.
Please follow these directions. There are apparently some kernel/cwr issues that are causing boot loops. If you decide to flash another kernel afterwards, be my guest. Don't wipe, however. The above directions are after hours of testing by IRC folks, and I THANK all of them!!!!!

Going to play with it a bit tomorrow.......errr later today after I get some sleep.

The kernel of your choice
Step-by-Step Installation - Important!
ODIN the full stock EB01 package in PDA, the atlas_v2.2.pit in PIT, and "Re-Partition" checked
Let your phone fully boot into the OS and verify everything is working correctly
Remove your battery
ODIN the CWM Recovery package
Close odin, Unplug/replug the phone from USB, re-enter download mode, Re-open odin.
ODIN the modem
Unplug USB Cable, THEN reinsert your battery
Hold both of the volume keys and the power button down until a second after you see the Samsung boot logo, then let go
It should now boot into red CWM recovery
Wipe Cache only. Flash the ec10_rom.zip
Flash the kernel of your choice
Reboot. If you have installed a voodoo kernel, then you should hear a Sexy Robot lady telling you that she is converting your partitions. This process will take 10 minutes or so. If you pull the battery, you will have to start all over again.
Let your phone fully boot into the OS and verify everything is working correctly
I can't stress enough how important it is to check your files for the correct checksum to verify that your download did not get corrupted (you can also use it as a way to make sure you have the right version). Also, follow these instructions exactly. You could potentially be wasting your time and anyone else's who is trying to help you fix whatever random issue you might be having, merely because you didn't follow the instructions.
I've been scanning threads for news of this mystery drop since your first hint and just as I'm about to cash out for the night... OMFG! You f'ing rock mate! Now, if I can only find the strength to hold out for the community brain child... I know it will be worth the wait. Oh, but a tasty new radio sure sounds delicious right now!
Thanks again Adryn for everything you've done to make this phone great!

thanks for the link man . that did the trick . bad DL i guess . thanks .
I put this together for the folks that don't care about the ED01 modem and just want the stock ROM. It could also be useful for people that got the OTA, but want to go back to stock after flashing a custom ROM. I updated via Adrynalyne's method (Odin DL09, update to EA28, then ED01) that he posted here.
There are two versions, one for Odin, the other for CWM. The Odin version is still rooted, but otherwise stock. It will flash the ROM, kernel, and recovery, as well as perform a factory reset. The CWM Zip version is not rooted, but you will want to wipe data after you flash it (perform a factory reset). Neither method will flash the modem as I have no way to dump that, so you will need to already have the ED01 modem if you want to be fully stock.
Odin Version
CWM Zip Version
I'm guessing this gives CWM3?

This doesn't include a modem, so you will be on the same baseband you were on beforehand. Until someone digs up a ED01 modem, you need to do the OTA to get the ED01 modem.

Yeah, until someone happens to find a full Odin package for ED01, or can somehow stumble upon just an ED01 modem, this will just be good for flashing the stock rooted ED01 system/kernel.

Modem and Radio r the same thing
Thanks for this. I have been flashing my phone every other week if not more since day 1 without any problems. Now that I want to sell it all of a sudden I'm stumped and can't get it back to working order before I ship it out. Hopefully this will solve my problems. Thanks again. Thunderbolt, here I come!
thanks for the ODIN! This will help greatly! Is it pretty much stock, or did you change a few things (DEBLOAT) and does it have the STAY AWAKE feature?
Modem = Baseband = Radio
Out of curiosity why would you flash this when you can get the version with the modem?
What's the advantage?
Thank you for your work.
Sent with my thumbs.
It would be useful if you did the OTA to get the modem, then installed a custom ROM and needed to go back to stock. Say your phone starts doing something odd, you can't take it in with a custom ROM on it, so you could use this to get back to stock faster than taking the DL09->EA28->ED01 route.

Exactly, cause how odd would it be for a phone to have a ED01 modem and DL09 system =D lol
so has there been any noticeable differences between ec01 and ed01?
Thanks for this; I already did the long stroll to get the ED01 Radio, and this will save me tons of time if "something goes wrong" or for the next ROM change.
is it possible to use re-partition option with this rom? or atlas PIT file?
Well I thought I would try CM7. Apparently the ROM that I was running made a straight upgrade to CM7 impossible.
I flashed back to stock using
s1_odin_20100512.pit
T959UVJFD.tar
Passed with no issues. Also formated the internal SD. Now when I try the usual update.zip method of rooting, the little script seems to stop almost immediately but with no error messages. The progress bar only goes about a 1/10 of the way, then it says successful and reboots. However I don't have SU access nor busybox.
Totally stumped. Any thoughts? This phone was originally rooted in using the same method. If I were to guess, I would say that maybe this "original" ROM is not the original one I had on the phone when I bought it at T-Mo.
When I look at the phones ID it says:
model :SGH-T959
FW: 2.1 update 1
BB: T959UVJFD
Kern: 2.6.29
Build Number :Eclair (I don't remember it originally saying Eclair but I could be mistaken)
Any help would be appreciated.
Apparently the usual update.zip has been naughty lately. Use the attached update.zip posted by s15274n instead.

I think there are two different stock flashes you can use. if you can't root its probably because you used the wrong one. I know that 2.2 froyo also has rooting issues.

Done.

I am supposed to be putting this in the PDA slot of odin and leaving the file zipped exactly as it was when I downloaded it, correct?

The stock cable should be adequate if not good quality. Compared to the Epic 4G and cable for that I had before...
Flash .zips. Odin .tars .tar.md5 .pit or whatever it is properly. Make sure you have the correct .tar in the pda slot and use an updated version of Odin3 (3.04) and leave all the default settings as is, aside from the PDA .tar, hit start.
Edit: Also make sure to check the MD5, maybe you got a corrupt download.

Still didnt work. Do I need to be on MI5 like you suggested earlier for this to work?
I wonder if we can pull the MI5 stock keyboard and replace it with the MJ4 to get the gray colored keyboard back

Yeah, you can.
i managed to get the OF6 sprint full rom file through kies.
this is only to be flashed using odin in the ap slot.
you will probably lose root and your custom recovery.
you may be able to root it and restore the data . That up to you to try.
This is the Sprint version Only!
here is the link: if someone wants to provide a mirror that would be appreciated.
Disabling 'Reactivation Lock' from 'Security' in the settings allowed me to root and add a custom recovery (TWRP).
your on your own from here!

here is another link thats a zipped MD5.tar file. this must be unzipped before putting the file into odin ap slot . (thanks to itskapil for the link)

It's always great to have a TAR file on PC. Thanks!
But btw, this is Android 5.0 update, right? Have read on android blogs that OF6 has been 5.1 update for T-Mobile Galaxy S6 sets. So..
Okay, it's 5.0.2. Brings Reactivation lock.

First is this a necessary update? Second does one have to update to OD3 first before doing the update. I'm still on OA6

no you dont have to update and no it isnt necessary. but if you are on stock OA6 I would take to guess that this rom is 5 months newer with improvements in alot of areas. they claim its for factory reset protection (so someone cant steal your phone and just factory reset it and it theirs now) and for reactivation protection (same thing so noone can reactivate the phone and make it theirs)
if i was on straight stock i would update. if i was on a stock rooted i would either try and root it or wait for someone to root the tar file and make it flashable through recovery.
thats my take on it.
cool... thanks. I like the security features, but at the same time I may wait till the new Moar comes out to do the work.
Is there a new radio and modem version with this update?

Thank you for this and by chance has anyone seen a firmware/modem update only for OF6 yet?
Edit: Found! Thanks tdunham - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=21717
I was just gonna show you that. Lol

Has anyone successfully loaded a custom recovery and possibly one of the available OA6 ROMs after updating to this full tar?
I know there are separate modem and firmware files, but I was just curious if anyone has tried to go there from full stock.

Yes. In fact, I did a full rom install, with nand erase all (after a bad flash), and I still went back to OA6 and OD3 stock deodexed roms.
Flashing TWRP from Odin works fine after flashing OF6 or OD3. I also used the CF one click root method, and that also worked for me.
Everything I did was in Odin 3.10.6.
Chainfires auto root makes odin complains about the recovery and shows 'fuse>3', which (I assume) means I've already burnt thru three of the 400+ fuses in the phone (kernel, recovery and probably rooting). I've tried odin 3.10.6 and the version that comes with chainfires auto root. Towelroot v3 says my phone isn't supported, even when using the command mod options.
I'll boot back into Windowz and try this a few more times. I don't see/know how joshdv rooted his phone...
edit: let's add insult to injury. I can't downgrade the firmware/OS to OA6, says it fails OS version.

@joshdv
Maybe it would help if you posted the link to the autoroot tar and any special steps you took to get it working.

Ya, before I flashed this, I knew I was probably stuck with OF6 and that there currently wasn't a reliable method to get root. Now, it's a waiting game to see if someone comes up with a method/hack to root this. GooooOOOOO CHAINFIRE!!!

Depends how long you're willing to wait and if you want to keep the warranty bit untripped.
If it doesn't matter, you can still flash custom recovery in odin and any one of the pre-rooted custom or stock roms that will run on the lollipop bootloader.
I got root by just installing custom recovery and flashing super su. zip
