that can be flashed through odin which automatically installs cwm in the process?
lol too lazy to install cwm? or what is your purpose
re-partition went wrong, odin'd to stock but it is stuck on a blanck screen after the SGS logo, i'm pretty sure the flashing isnt being done correctly because of the re-partion that was messed up, so i'm trying to fix that by flashing cwm and trying to run it.
redownload the tar aand pit files, might have been a bad downloadcqnd try again

Here's what I did. I Flashed Axura 2.0.5 and i tried to use titanium backup. But the thing is that i backed it up before flashing but when i finished flashing. it didn't restore anything. So I was mad. I also made a nandroid backup before flashing too. so I decided to go into CWR and do a restore. Now my phone hangs at the logo screen. How do i fix this?
Odin
Still flashing , thanks to odin & tw
odin with what?
A computer and the files you can find on this forum odin back to stock then try flashing again
Still flashing , thanks to odin & tw
I have the JI6 tar.
You need the pit file as well
Still flashing , thanks to odin & tw
Having trouble using ODIN!!
as now I did the steps and all I have is the phone will boot up through the tmobile screen & S after that screen goes black with the 4 hour button home row lit up.???
As for the recovery I get the following when booting it:
move_check Start..!!
checksum confirmation need_checksum(1300........)
mbr_checksum in header : 4:1
mbr checksum: 533a4003d.........
mbr checksum error
movingand checksum cofirmattion fail
movi_checking done!
update media, please
update media, finished
#manual mode #
appling muti csc
installin multi csc
Much help would be appreciated!!! Have to work all day today which will be slow, so I can work on fixing this. My main question is what type of file is pit & tar? Pit properties is coming up as a window shell comand, Tar opens with unknow app? Not sure if this is my problem or not, I get ODIN to run and complete the steps and end up with the above.
Using Odin V1.3
512.pit

did you disable lagfix before you did this? If you didn't have lagfix then I would try to go to stock 2.1: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734475
If you had lagfix, its a little more complicated and you may need to use Android SDK. Search for lagfix and flash and the information should pop up.
dont use the .pit file for JI6.. only way I can do JI6 for some reason.
see if that works for you
can you direct me to the files that I need....pda and pit PLEASE...

was completely stock and I just rooted/unlocked. Swithed Sd cards and stuck in boot loop, after booting up again, trying to recover through ODIN, so probably no lagfix

just use the JI6 PDA file that you used..... dont add the 512.pit file to it in ODIN
okay found a solution for now, my issue was related to ROM manager with the SD card, kept getting wrong MD5 Sum!! Really pissed me off about this since I was running through ODIN correctly,
Temporary Solution...
Updated the rom with Eugene froyo!! This brought me out of boot looping and now I have a rom on my phone can use it but no downloading or anything. Try to downgrade to stock rom but not luck.
I had the same problem and had to start over again with JFD and the 512 .pit file. Afterward i went to JI6 through KIES and then used Eugene's Froyo ROM with root and took it from there. I had a weird problem where my drive letters went from e and f, to g and h (that's what they are now). I also had a problem with the CW file on my SD card. I eventually had to move it to the phone in order to flash CW recovery. Flashed and am running Nero V3. Best ROM i've ever used!! Highly recommend.....

Thats what I think i need to do is reflash Clockwork recovery, not sure how to do so though
I was using odin to flash a rom and I knocked it off my desk and unplugged it in the process. It will still get to the download screen for odin and have tried to odin roms but they fail to install. The error usually is it can not mount or wipe : DATA. I have odin'ed CWM and can boot to that. I have tried every thing I can think of.
Any suggestions?
ouch. you may be able to fix this via heimdall but I'm not sure. have you tried resetting it to factory settings? maybe something with repartitioning? of course, you'll have to do the research.

Try to odin stock froyo with the PIT file and reformat checked. Might try it a few times if it fails the first. I got stuck on the modem once and it never went past that till I restarted it.
links as follows....
2.2 stock froyo (PDA BUTTON ONLY) - http://www1279.megaupload.com/files...d9dd20ca/CI500_VZW_EB01_FROYO_REL.tar.md5.tar
PIT file (PIT BUTTON) - http://download180.mediafire.com/09z19r6ojbwg/26xbh796jmwvwqb/atlas_v2.2.pit
Make sure your "reformat" box it checked.
So my vibrant won't boot up. I've tried odining it back to stock, and no matter what I do, it will almost get to the galaxy S screen (freezes as it is forming the S). Download mode and recovery mode both work.
Pull the battery, boot into recovery and wipe factory reset, wipe cache, and advanced->wipe Dalvik. The reboot. Will take longer b/c it has to rebuild Dalvik but it should work out fine. I had the same thing happen the two nights ago coming off ICS.
Don't forger you won't have CWM and it isn't in the market for 2.1 anymore. You can download it from my signature. Put Update.zip in internal and hit reinstall packages twice (that is if you want flash or restore).
Are you able to "Reinstall Packages" from recovery or does that fail?
Did you check re-partition when converting to stock?
You may have corrupted your internal SD

The reinstall packages fails. It says: "can't open /sdcard/update.zip" (no such file or directory).

I don't have the option of wiping the Dalvik in recovery. I think its because it went back to the default "Android system recovery <2e>"
I tried wiping everything, but when it boots, it goes to the vibrant screen, then to the tmobile screen (the boot sound works), but then, the screen turns black and it goes back to the vibrant screen again (and it just keeps looping).
Maybe try ka7 or kb5 instead of jfd? Investigate /mnt/efs and the copies in /sdcard/backup? Don't know much about eds, might be worth a look. Reflash SBL for good measure?

So I flashed ka7, and it gets past the S logo now, but then it turns black and now it says "Kernel Panic" upload mode:
RST_STAT=0x4
PMIC_IRQ1=0x0
PMIC_IRQ2=0x0
PMIC_IRQ3=0x0
PMIC_IRQ4=0x0
PMIC_STATUS1=0x40
PMIC_STATUS2=0x2C
Go to the dev section and download the Toolbox. It is stickied. It has drivers, Odin and the Pit/Tar files to get you back to stock. Get back into download mode and re-run Odin with those files.
Don't forget that you don't have to see the DL mode on your screen as long as the COM box is yellow in Odin.
Also check out this thread.

I tried using the toolbox and reflashing the stock rom, but it just gets to the t-mobile "stick together" screen, then screen turn black, then it goes to the battery charging screen.
If you're doing Odin right, with a good rom and pit file, and still have trouble, I guess you could flash the SBL. I had a rom flash (via zipfile) do something unknown which made it nearly impossible to get into download mode. Once I did, I flashed the SBL and I was fine. No idea what happened. I even had a nandroid backup, not a restore, hose my phone once. When the other Phone Gods turn against you, Odin is your friend.

But I can get into download mode. And which sbl should I flash?
Probably the closest-to-stock Froyo SBL you can find.
I'm using a GB SBL from this thread, and he has Froyo also:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1117990
I got stuck in this loop a few months back flashing back to stock from CM7 when Odin froze.
I could get to Download Mode and Stock recovery but had the same error when attempting to "Reinstall Packages" from recovery. The internal SD partition had corrupted.
I flashed Eugene_2E_JK2_Froyo with Odin, which fixed the Internal SD.
If you follow the write up on unbricking when you have the little triangle and phone error on your screen it will get you out of this one.
Your bootloaders are not the issue here. 2e Recovery isn't seeing the Internal SD Card and that it what is causing the hangup on boot.
Yeah, probably just flashing a decent kernel would fix you up, but unless you can find an Odin kernel file, you need to do the whole rom.
BTW, with Linux, you can use
tar -tf <rom file> if you want to see what's in a rom.
You can download the Odin flashable Overstock Kernel which contains the red recovery and flash it. That would give you the ability to format the internal SD and then Mount it to your PC through recovery and copy a Rom over to flash.
Otherwise the Unbrickable Froyo I mentioned before will also work.
The only thing you can do when stuck in a boot-loop, if the previous suggestions don't work, is to just reflash it. You can flash back to stock easily using Heimdall One-Click. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1278683
We're missing some info here. What ROM were you using before you flashed back to stock? Did you use a pit file in addition to the pda file in ODIN?
If you were using an ICS (android 4.0.x), flashing back to stock and didn't use a stock pit in addition to stock pda, it would definetly be giving you problems. ICS uses a different partition scheme then does stock (which is on android 2.1). The pit file tells odin how to partition your phone.If you're flashing from Froyo, then this should not be relevant as it uses same partition scheme as stock.
Hello.
I tried to flash stock XEO ROM to my S3, but while the whole process it stuck on loading system.img. Then when i tried to turn on the phone it shows me the yellow triangle and info that i can recover the system with Kies. But it also didn't work. I tried to flash other stock roms but it always is stuck in booting system.img
FIX:
I downloaded different roms and different ver. of android
Tried to flash several times with pit file and without but it was still stuck at system.img
I tried different ports and the result was the same
I changed the cable and reinstalled drivers and I succeed to flash 4.0.4 ver without pit file with odin 3.07
Have you tried flashing stock rom via ODIN?
Yeah, that's what I'm talking about I tried several times and it still doesn't work :crying:

Did you try install stock firmware with PIT file?
If you have 16 GB version of GT-I9300, you can try this PIT file (I tested on my device).
Odin 3.07 with PIT file;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2762337&d=1401023420
Download a stock ROM from sammobile, then put it to PDA. Before start flashing, press PIT button on Odin and select the PIT file, then press Start.
I decided to send my phone to service, when will it come back still bricked I will try it
Ok, I will get my phone back UNFIXED because they told me at the service that i have to pay for changing the firmware because my phone comes from other country.. I disagreed and told them to send my phone back.
I had an idea how to fix my phone and also some questions about that.
First, is there any way to full wipe my phone without recovery, I mean that i can;t access recovery on my bricked phone and i think that causes the problem with flashing any rom with odin (that the brokem rom i still installed and odin can' flash the new one over it). When I'll wipe the phone completely i suppose it might solve the problem. But does wiping the phone makes the phone unrecognizable for PC?
The second idea is kinda connected with the first one. I thought about flashing cf root with odin into my phone and as far as i know, it has its own recovery so i can easily wipe the phone with it and then flash the stock rom.
I know that my reply looks kinda messy but I hope you know what i mean.

Bump, need an answer to this.
up
Ok my phone is finally alive :cyclops: Here's the solution i figured out:
I downloaded different roms and different ver. of android
Tried to flash several times with pit file and without but it was still stuck at system.img
I tried different ports and the result was the same
I changed the cable and reinstalled drivers and I succeed to flash 4.0.4 ver without pit file with odin 3.07
I will add it to the first post for those who have the same problem, cheers :good:
