Hi Guys
Quick noob question
When you flash a single file using odin (for example the official XWKE7 in the rom flash guide), and you put this file in the PDA section, does this update the MODEM and CSC as well on the phone?
why there is one ROM file not 3 files to be put in the PDA, MODEM, and CSC sections of Odin
Thanks

There are some ROMs (like those stock ones) that have everything contained within the one file.

what about re-partition and pit file, i have read in the guide that they should not be used
why is that ? what is the function of the pit file and when should we choose to re-partition?
Follow instructions for each individual firmware.

Hi guys.
Here's a little update what i've done with my phone.
Last night i have flashed ICS KP8 through ODIN.
I have reverted to GB this morning 2.3.5 and now i want to flash my stock firmware 2.3.4 I9100XWKI4 (TWO).
I have downloaded the desired ROM (I9100XWKI4_I9100XXKI1_I9100OXFKE1_HOME.tar.md5) from SAMMMOBILE but when i extracted it it only contains 1 file of size 539MB.
So...this is my question...where am i supposed to put that file in ODIN and do i need something else or just this file?
Tnx in advance
Follow instructions from the firmware provider makes sense .
No idea whats in the file from another forum .
Usual is to flash tar via PDA .

Maybe it's a one part .tar file? (Just to put in PDA)
Pls write the name of file here.
But to get sure, download the firmware, u want, from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
Flash like instruction says and all should be fine
PS: If u want to be sure what's on with downloaded file, pls complete name...

Tar.md5 "one big file" roms just go in the PDA slot and Odin will work it out.
The md5 bit just means that Odin will do a checksum to make sure the file isn't corrupt, so no need to extract it.
Also make sure you flash the GB bootloaders first, available in the thread linked above

Hello,
im new here. Im from Germany and i bought my s2 from amazon.co.uk in may. I think its the GT-I9100LKAXEU, but im not sure.
I need a old 3-parts firmware, with which i can use the pit file and then update it then with kies.
The reason is that my headphone-socket is a bit damaged and i want to give it for warranty
excuse me for my not so perfect english
Thanks a lot

Why do you want to use a PIT file .
Rule is do not use PIT only for experienced users .
Three part firmware is on samfirmware .
For warranty flash stock firmware from link given if rooted or custom rom reset rom counter with USB jig is the method used .

You don't need a "3 part" FW, there is no need for all "parts" being seperate.
The ROMs in Intratech's thread contain everything needed, you can say "all 3 parts are packed into the one file".
Just flash a matching one of those.
i have downloaded the 1 file tar for my country which is still ICS so my question can i use the modem and CSC only included in the package and how?

Yes you can do this using dsixda's kitchen. Get the ROM you want and add the CSC and modem and then build the ROM. I have done this to use here.

You can flash the modem in recovery but the CSC is part of the ROM.
