Problem with Odin - can't root or install - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am not a noob and have flashed hundreds of time so please refrain from posting without helping.
I have searched a lot but could not find any similar thread.
So I am posting here.
I have inadvertently flagged "re-partition" when flashing an official Rom with Odin and now when trying to flash any different Rom I can't go through the entire process - same thing when trying to flash some clockworkmod recovery.
Error is like in the image that I am posting here.
No way to have some other remedy.
Could you help me please?

since you flashed official rom, you may need to root it from the beginning. did you try this?

well i will call you a noob cause you posted this question in the wrong section...next time post it in the Q&A section..that is why it is there for....

+10 char
but to give you a little hint (eventhough everyone is going to hate me cause i answered and even made an attempt to help) look for roms which are MADE to be flashed WITH repartition enabled (you will need a pit file as well). also: your phone aint rooted. root it via odin and then have a look.
@mods: please delete thread

ok hard reset the phone by going into the Samsung recovery i think its volume up + power + home, but Google the hard reset procedure or YouTube it, after hard resetting root it and it should be ok, hope this helps, all the best.

Get firmware, get .pit file for Galaxy S2 use Odin with .pit and repartition enabled to flash the firmware.

Actually, you don't really need a *.pit file, you can also use a Sbl.bin file.
You aren't really using an official rom, more like someone's dump of an official rom. It might be missing stuff, or have stuff added.
Official ROM contents: (Inside the *.tar file)
boot.bin
cache.img
factoryfs.img
hidden.img
modem.bin
param.lfs
Sbl.bin
zImage
It seems that the partitions are all gone, therefore your phone is unable to mount partitions that are already gone. Fortunately, your bootloader is still working which is why you are able to access your download mode, and somehow still able to access your recovery, which is probably written into the only intact partition.
Download an OFFICIAL ROM with a *.pit or Sbl.bin file which contains the partition information, and then use ODIN to flash again.
Your EFS might be missing as well, so the modem might not be able to work. Modem is the one that controls your phone calls and data through GSM/WCDMA.
Use Fus Downloader 2.0 and download the latest FULL OFFICIAL ROM for your phone, then flash and repartition your phone.
Now that I have helped...
YOU ARE A NOOB!!!

unzip u1_02_20110310_emmc_EXT4.zip
use odin,click pit select u1_02_20110310_emmc_EXT4.pit,click start

[Q] Bricked. Need help. (sufferer brick)

hey guys, before you say this is a repost ive had a look and was unable to find someone who done the same thing as me...
i have a brand new galaxy s2,
i tried to root it, but some how i stuffed it up and the phone got stuck on the boot screen after the root, i tried to reinstall the kernel but without being able to get into the phone i didnt know which kernel i needed, i DONT have clockworkmod installed so i couldnt boot via that either, so i tried downloading the stock kernel for Telstra my phone provider, i tried installing that, but now instead of being stuck on the screen with the boot logo and a yellow triangle, im stuck on the screen that has a little image of a phone and a computer and an orange triangle between then with a ! in it. any assistance in this would be greatly appreciated

Hey,
first question:
You are able to get in download mode? (volume down + home button + power button)
If yes, be cool
So when u are able, flash a stock Rom with "re-partition".
This means also that you must have a stock Rom with 3 files (or sometimes more), but not the one .tar file.
If you've done this, your phone should work normal.
Then try to root again with the right "cf-root" for the android version, you flashed.
Good luck!

Just out of curiosity: I always read, you should never select "re-partition".
Why do you suggest this here right now for a StockRom?
Thanks in advance.

What I have read it only works if pit file is available, but even then re-partition should not be used. And a one-file tar generally contains the same files (phone,modem,csc) as the three-file-combo.
That's why I'm so confused.
Im honestly glad you guys know what your talking about

The .pit file is only needed by three-file-combo.
Then you can check also the repartition.
If you have one file .tar, the .pit-file is senseless and never should check repartition.
Sure in one file you have nearly the same "files" like in three, but in three-file they can be written separatly on right partition.
Mates don't get me wrong but just accept it
I'm not a dev or scripter but but flashed a lot.
Never bricked my phone but often hanging in bootloop and so on.
And like you see the way with re-partition can help.
I Never flashed a stock Rom since I had my SGS II, but like I said I'm flashing a lot and I had the SGS before, too
Hope all question are answered.
If not pls ask devs for more info.
But that's the general things I can tell you

Wrong, you can use it with both single tarball archive or with the 3 component tarball. You don't need to repartition the device unless you need to change the partition layout for whatever reason or you've damaged your partition layout.

1) Right, he damaged it so he needed it.
2) No you shouldn't use it by one file flash!
Read threads and experiences from users which have probs after flashing like this if at all possible to flash.
But however I don't wanna say anybody how to flash.
That's my and also a lot of other user experience

Need Stock Rom for 5.0 USA

Can't seem to find a link to download the stock rom for the US 5.0 Galaxy Player. I flashed a new rom thinking I did a CWM backup, but apparently I only thought I did.
I've searched around and can't seem to find an ODIN tar or a ZIP that I can flash for the US version other than a file hosted on Multiupload which no longer works. I didn't post in general being that this seems more Development related.
If anyone can help me out I'd appreciate it.
....................
EDIT: It was a pain to find, but I found the multiupload link, googled it, found the cached page, found the name of the file, googled the name of the file and downloaded from fileserve. I then uploaded to my server. You can download it from there if anyone needs it.
DOWNLOAD: http://timcordova.com/iamtimmah/android/YP-G70_UEKI8_MIN.rar
Found it. Posted mirror in first post.
Thank you for finding it. I would like to ask you if you have tried it already.
I don't flash custom ROMs because
until now, I didn't have a stock recovery ROM to restore in case something goes wrong or I didn't like the new ROM. And I don't think Best Buy would want to replace a device with a cracked screen if custom software is installed.
Please, let me know.
Thank you in advance.

I have tried it. I just flashed back to stock. I had to Wipe data via CWM before flashing back. On the first boot it took me to Stock recovery where I wiped data and wiped the cache. It's now working perfect.
As far as I know there seems to only be one custom rom for the US 5.0. Various kernels to try though.
So, in case I just want to restore to stock with the file you made available, I need to have a custom kernel so I can use CWM?, or I can do it from the stock recovery window?.
And the only two options to flash a kernel and a ROM I see for the SGP 5.0 are "Entropy's Daily Driver" and "Eryigit-GB-2.3.6 G70ZCKPA ROM", have you found other options?
Thank you.

Normally you only need to flash the pda, but if you want to re-partition your device then use the pit file as well.

When you turn it off just hold the volume down button before turning it on and you should get there in a couple of seconds.
after flashing i got bootloops, but i did factory reset and wipe partion cache , and it worked well

Welcome to the Dev section for the Galaxy Player. This is for development, not for installation help. You should be able to ask in General.
Flashing ROMs can be scary at first, but the Dev board is best left for software development, feedback, etc. It makes it easier for the Devs not to have to wade through a field of nonsense.
tl;dr:
Post questions in General, not in Dev. It's a common mistake, don't worry too much.
I just want it to be as if it just came in a box because I'm selling it, how do I have it stock and unrooted?

Flash the stock rom found here via Odin3 and if it is rooted, download Root Browser from play store and and delete superuser.apk in system/app and delete su binary in system/bin and after you delete these two, reboot and uninstall root browser and you should be good.

bricked SG3

Hello all,
Something went seriously wrong when installing custom mod on my SG3 => bricked
What's the status:
*unable to get in recovery modus
*able to get in download modus
*when I want to install another mod within odin it doesn't do anything, it completes installing in 1 second
it actually stops @ <ID:0/006> NAND Write Start!!
I can wait for hours and it just stops @ this step...:crying:
Anyone of you have any ideas as I'm running out of options..
Thank you for your help!

* installed CWM
* installed the cyanogen ROM
* installed font installer => rebooted => crashed (stuck on samsung screen)
* cleared data/cache in recovery modus
* tried to install stock ROM => stuck on samsung screen
* added pit file (read on the forum that it could help on bricked phones) , stock ROM and flashed with Odin
final result: no recovery modus, only download modus and unable to flash anything with Odin
If you can get to download mode you should certainly be able to flash with odin. That is download mode's sole purpose and afaik it is not affected by any rom installations.

It was probably the wrong file. You should not have done that. Its pretty certain that is the cause.

thanks for the feedback

I also think that the pit file messed it up (pit file was the one suggested for the SG3 => GT-I9300_mx_20120220.pit)
when installing PDA file via Odin it stops @ <ID:0/006> NAND Write Start!!
on the phone
status balk on phone is completed but not rebooting (it actually does nothing in Odin I guess)
Why don`t you read BEFORE you flash anything instead of AFTERWARDS
BUT I GUESS ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE IF YOU ARE NOT LIMITED BY ANY KNOWLEDGE.
You did it to yourself.
Boot into odin and flash a complete stock rom with NO pit file. Follow the instructions provided on these forums for returning to stock.
Never ever flash a pit again.

The point is that you should not flash anything if you don`t know the procedure and what to do exactly.

In a german board this problem got solved by flashing with the right pit file (and a 3-part firmware).
They said, "mx.pit" or "GT-I9300_mx_20120329.pit" should work.
HERE you get the files.
Unfortunately the original poster was not very specified with reporting which he had flashed, but he said it flashed.
Another one pointed out, that you need a 3-part firmware when flashing with repartition. Is that the case? I don't know.
EDIT: It can be that the solution wasn't the correct pit file, but only the 3-part firmware. Maybe try to flash a 3-part firmware first without repartition.
Best Regards

This is pretty strange. You should be able to flash any of the international roms and have it work as they are interchangeable.
When you run the cyanogen zip is it throwing up an error or just flat resetting?
Tried redownloading the zip or using a different nightly?

Calling all Developers!! (Posted here for a Reason)

YES, I KNOW THAT ALL QUESTIONS GO IN THE Q&A FORUMS BUT ITS HERE TO GET THE DEVELOPERS. SINCE I HAVEN'T FOUND ANY PERSON THAT CAN HANDLE SUCH SITUATION. (Please read ahead to take note of the problem clearly)​
Please think of this as to help me (and other people who made these dead like this one). Don't comment "Questions go in the Q&A forum you friggin' NOOB". I know all of this stuff!!!!!
How it happened??:-
Rooted the phone using CF Root 6.4. Working "Perfectly"!
Did an OTA update (0.17MB) accidently. Encountered Random Reboots after then.
Then it won't boot at all
Stuck at the "GT-i9300" logo.
I HAVE THE NANDROID BACKUP BUT WON'T GO INTO THE RECOVERY SO ITS USELESS (is there any way to do it without the Recovery??)
Current situation:-
No Recovery. Tried Re-flashing the Official ROM and Re-rooting it. Either doesn't shows up or when shows up stays for 2 seconds and then goes to the GT-i9300 Logo.
Download mode is PRESENT.
Charges with NO PROBLEMS. Shows the Battery Logo going up and the Blue LED comes on too.
It once gave an error saying : "E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted."
It also gave a similar one in the above but with some other error. I didn't noticed it.
Odin Flashes WITHOUT any errors(no errors within the Odin). Writes the Firmware completely but unable to proceed due to some unknown reason.
I have tried these:-
Changed the NAND Memory Chip. Still the exact same problem. (Partition problem or something?)
J-Tagged it. No use!
Flashed all the Official ROMs via Odin.
Re-Rooted it. No use. Recovery isn't stable. Keeps rebooting after 2 seconds to the GT-i9300 Logo.
Please take this Question very seriously. Since its not just me with the same problem. There are many many other people with the same problem and with no solutions. Isn't this the main reason of XDA-Developer? Or is it just ROMs, Themes or Kernels? A person would be more happy if he gets his/her phone repaired instead of lying there on the desk and keeping those papers in there place and stop them being blown away from the fan!​
For the moderators:- I know this isn't in the rules of the XDA to post a Question in the Android Development Section but this is here to summon all the ROM Developers and the Kernel Tweakers. Thank You for your valuable time!

Download *.tar file from sammobile. As you have download option live, you can flash the same with help of Odin (for ICS)
Flash A Stock ICS ROM with Odin.
Get them from Sammobile or from a thread with stock rom collections.
Even get an Galaxy S3 .pit file for odin.
That will fix it.
Just to keep you happy, Most Samsung Devices are unbrickable. As long as it boots, even if its in bootloop it can get fixed with odin.
Keep us updated.
Sorry, even questions like this go into the Q&A, that's where the devs are, aswell..
Anyway, go to this website and create an account.
Download latest JB/ICS ROM and get a .pit file. Open Odin and flash away..
Done, your phone is working again..
Moved to Q/A, there is no reason to post this in the development section.
That is the problem!! No one in the Q&A section answered like u guys have :/
All I get told was "give it to the Service Center".
Anyway! Which PIT file should I flash. A Procedure would be nice. My Last firmware was 4.0.4 don't know the number.
Ohk so I found it from the Nandroid Backup. It was I9300XXBLG8 I also found something written as IMM76D
But this was before the OTA update. Can someone tell me about the .pit file for it?
Which .pit file should I use?

I gave it to a person here in the phone market. He also J-tags it. He had a spare broken motherboard. he changed the NAND Flash Memory Unit by himself. He said it is in the same condition as it was before. So no problem to the NAND Flash Memory Unit is done.
Suggest that you join sammobile as posted and use stock firmware .
Sammobile has a forum and you may get more information regarding a PIT file there .

Hey! I didn't noticed its JJE!
I remembered u helped me alot in the previous Threads I made!
I downloaded the U.K version. Which is the one I had according to the Nandroid Backup I made.
I opened the "system.ext4.tar" by WinZip.
Saw a CSCVersion.txt file.
It had written "I9300OXABLG8" on it.
Also in the "build.prop" file (Opened by Notepad) I saw I9300XXBLG8 written aswell.
So I downloaded that one.
So I have only one Question:
Which PIT File should I put? :/
I see 5 of them :-
GT-I9300_mx_20120220.pit
GT-I9300_mx_20120322.pit
GT-I9300_mx_20120329.pit
M0_20120220.pit
mx.pit
Which one?
should be the last one...
Why don't you just spare yourself numerous headaches by sending the phone in for repair? Just say it died on you or something.

If you flash the wrong pit file or if the pit file fails to flash, you might destroy your nand memory. The pit file is the partition table, hence you should be very careful.

if your refering to the "all in one stock root rom" thread i've checked that already and all the att links are dead.
Just plug it into KIES and restore to stock, root then install your custom rom.

you did not list your carrier or device in your post, but there is a whole list of options here. I have myself scanned through list and yes am aware many of links are dead, yet this was the 2nd one I checked.
if this is for your device and what you are looking for then you are ready to go.
here is the thread containing the file, first link is up
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2261598
if not, check the last post in this thread. you will find a link provided from "developweb", see if that is what you are looking for, be sure to hit his thanks button. I am not going to send one of my files, again simply, because you have not told anyone device or carrier. you have already flashed wrong file once and I don't know how, but I don't want to be responsible for anyone bricking their device.
you have been a member long enough to know what information folks need and long enough to know to read. if you can provide this information, then maybe I can help you further if needed.
good luck and keep us posted

only problem with that is that the device wont turn on and KIES doesnt recognize it. just tryed to flash a recovery via odin and it failed also... guess im stuck with yet another paper weight.

Got you. Well there's a bunch of modems here but you will have to decide your own course. I can't offer any advice on them. Good luck!
