Mytouch 3g Odin????

Ok guys silly question. Can I use Odin on a mytouch 3g? I've only used it on my vibrant does it work the same on an HTC device?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
You cannot use Odin on an HTC phone. Odin is a Samsung development program and only works on Samsung phones.
Ok. Well I guess I can always use a hammer on it...thank u

(Q) Can you use vobrant roms on the 4g vibrant?

As the questions says... can you put say trigger on the vibrant 4g..? My friend has one and its even running a kb5 modem..
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Vibrant and Vibrant 4g ROMs are not interchangeable without modifications so no you cant use Trigger on the 4g.
Last time I checked the 4g doesnt even have clockworkrecovery yet so I wouldnt be trying to flash ROMs on that phone anyway.
Vibrant 3g KB5 is NOT the same as sgs4g KB5.
And no, 3g and 4g roms are not interchangeable.

Thanks for the quick responces.. I was just wondering because under about phone they look identical. I guess there will not really be any work seen on the sgs4g?

The galaxy s 4g is t959vuvkb5
Vibrant 3g is t959uvkb5
from my Vibrant running Bionix-v 1.3.1 and my Unbridled Carnage theme.
What really seperates the 4g from ours? A 4g modem and a ffc i also noticed it has a 1650mah battery compared to the 1500 in this one.

Sdcards for one. Vibrant has internal + external and the 4g has just external.

Porting a modem

I would like to know if there is a way to port the jk4 modem from the captivate to the vibrant. I want it because it gives amazing battery. My brother has it on his captivate and it is really great. Thank you in advance.

Bump can someone please respond

I imagine it would give you great battery life in a Vibrant as well, but only because at best you'd have no signal, at worst a soft bricked phone. The modem alone won't do any good if there isn't a proper kernel and rom for it.
I don't think I ever seen anyone port a modem/radio neither do I think its possible.

Are you sure because I have seen a rom that says it has KD1 on the vibrant and that modem is made for the vibrant 4g

You can port the rom, but not the modem.
Secondly, modems are phone specific, so porting them between different phone will cause you to brick or cause irreparable damage.

Please give a little more detail what your doing? You could be flashing the wrong stuff...

The s1_odin_20100512.pit and T959UVJFD .tar. is there anything else I need to flash
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda premium
I've only used Odin so I have no input on the AIO tool, but how long is the Odin flash taking? Is the Re-Parition option checked (should happen by default when you select the PIT)?
It takes about 3 mnts and repartiton is check but when its Donne it just bootloops on the samsung screen
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda premium
Odin v1.8 is included as part of the toolbox.
Go to the toolbox thread, last post and there is a download of a older version of Odin.
What ROM are/were you coming from?
O try that one 2 and still same result

Coming from stock gingerbread but the phone some how wont connect to the wireless and data so I decide to go back to stock but now it wont turn on :banghead:
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda premium
Are you coming from ICS, or Gingerbread? Did you flash the Gingerbread bootloaders by chance?
You could try to find the Froyo bootloaders, use Odin to flash that, and then try to flash the .pit and JFD files to go back to stock. I don't think that should be the problem, but it couldn't hurt. I know you're trying to get back to stock, but you could try to use fishman's odin image for his rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1441976
I've used it before, and can verify it's good to go.
Can you get into recovery? You won't have CWR, but I'm just curious if you can even get to the stock Samsung one (like if you were going to root the phone the old fashioned way).
coming from gingerbread .... and try all that already but at the end when the phone try to reboot it saids that une of the its not recognize ... i dont know if that have any thing to do ... but odin can read my phone
I have to ask... your signature says SGH-I997 (Samsung Infuse 4G). I hope you haven't been trying to flash the Vibrant packages on that all this time, heh.
no i have a infuse and a note but these phones is my friends and im trying to fix it for him but seems like i waont be able to do it the good thing its that i stil can get in download mode
Couldn't hurt to try a different usb port on your pc, I have trouble with my faster port. Works fine when I use the standard port.

Maybe try a different version of Odin. I have heard some people have problems with certain versions.

Have you tried Heimdall by any chance? It has worked for me before.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1278683
Although it shouldn't matter since the flash doesn't touch either of them, maybe try removing the SIM and the external SD temporarily.
I also second ZeroG1's suggestion for Heimdall.
Is it the vibrant 3g (t959) or the 4g (t959v)? They are very different.

Tmobile stable data connection ROM/radio

I was wondering what stable ROM/radio combination people are using for Tmobile. I am using onlyoneics with blaze4g modem in Chicago with great success except my data drops quite frequently. Any suggestions would be great!

Have you tried the VLK5 modem?
I shall give it a try tonight. Thanks for the response!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
Using CWM install the stock Tmobile ROM from the nandroid posted on this thread..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1824934
Then install Jeet's Test 4 Modem from here
http://www.mediafire.com/?wtiog4jhcflw8mb
You'll get good data speed's and Tmobile's Wi-Fi Calling feature which is very useful if you are in a place with weak reception.
So I was reading the posts that you put up? I'm not quite sure which is the TMobile ROM. Not only that they said to flash with dd. Hm just a little confused.
