Ok, I am currently using the Samsung Galaxy S Fascinate from Telus. I did some research and i figured I might as well root it. I did that successfully and that's where i should've stopped. I thought I was able to download the mod CyanogenMod but that was a failure. I have no idea what any of the technical terms mean (modem, kernal, how to open random files ie .tar, .rar .md5, flashing, etc). I tried to follow the Guide on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=923712. I got to step 5, and tried to download the .exe file but then installation failed. I am able to get into download mode and recovery mode but my phone won't reboot past that. Did I just break it..? Any help is appreciated but small simple steps are also appreciated
i'm looking to do the same thing but i'm not sure if i should be flashing the initial ROM (or where to find it) or a nightly
i'm no expert for sure but it sounds like you aren't totally screwed if you can get to recovery or download...not sure if you can just try reflashing the ROM (.zip)again from recovery in order to fix the problem (don't see in the guide where to use a .exe) but you can at least recover to stock using odin...just use step 2 in that guide...again no expert but this is what i have sorted out reading around here trying to figure out how i want to proceed
I have tried many things and yes sorry, the CM I used was in a .zip file, not .exe, my fault. I have attemped to go back to stock mod using that step 2 and those files provided but everytime odin fails. It's looking bad.

You should at least be able to go back to STOCK ROM by following Step 2.
If you are failing in ODIN, make sure the files were downloaded correctly. Using 7zip, try to view the files to verify they are OK. Also, be sure to place each file in the correct section.
Good luck!
Unfortunately, it still fails. 7zip says everything is fine but there is one thing i noticed, the file I'm supposed to place into the "phone" slot is under a WinRar file whereas the rest are a .md5 (or .pit in pit). Would this be a problem.. and how would I fix it?

Err.. if the file is a .rar, you need to uncompress first!
Odin only takes .tar or .tar.md5 or .pit files !!
Hmm.. fail. How would I uncompress a WinRar file?
The file name ends in .tar but when I go to properties, the file type says WinRar..

I use a free program called 7Zip. It's best, IMHO. It can uncompress/compress lots of different formats.. http://www.7-zip.org/
Once you have 7Zip installed, find the file with Windows Explorer, then right-click the file and select "Open Archive".. if you can view the contents, then that means the file is good.
Which file are you having problem? If the file already has .tar extension, then you don't need to uncompress. Only do so it's a .zip, .rar or .7z
Thank you for telling me to use 7Zip. I was using WinRar before and that automatically changed a file into an extension Odin couldn't use. So now I have all my files in eaither .tar or .md5 but Odin is still failing at
<ID:0/007> cache.rfs
<ID:0/007> modem.bin
<ID:0/007>
<ID:0/007> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
Everything is in the correct box and Odin is opened before I plugged in my phone

I have a Fascinate, but ODIN should work the same. I just downloaded the .zip file you mentioned in your 1st post and unzipped and checked all the files. They seem OK. Have you verified each file is OK?
Do you know which file is it failing? Also, the ODIN included in that .zip file is quite old.. only V1.0. Try this version v1.83 (uncompress first).
Also, did you check the "Repartition" checkbox in ODIN? And put the .pit file in the PIT section?
You sir, are my hero. This is the first time I've seen my home screen in a week!! I would hit that thank you button a thousand times. Although it did delete my Titanium Backup and unrooted my phone, it works!
Any advice towards if I attempt to "flash" a new Mod again?
Would the fact that I tried to flash CM7 (which I understand is Gingerbread) and the kernal it has me downloading is Froyo be a factor? Where would I get a replacement kernal?

I'm so glad I could help! That image you flashed through ODIN is the stock, so it's probably not rooted.
Now that you know how to restore to original stock, you can experiment more. But always remember to read the instructions carefully..
Installing CM7 is a bit more complicated, specially for people who never done it before. I'm not even sure if CM7 or other MTD based ROMs can be installed on a Telus, but I'll do some research. I'm running JT's vanilla Gingerbread myself and it's a great ROM. If you want, I'll tell you how tomorrow..
Well thanks to you, I successfully installed CM7 on my telus following this new guide - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1115090 - (with a couple restoring back to original), the only problem now is that i'm unable to get service. It says if I can't then just flash back to original and try again. I did that a few times but same outcome, no service (or 3g). I also noticed my home button no longer works.. that might be a problem too but I'm sure it's just a bug. Any extra assistance is always appreciated!

Did you wipe Data & Devik Cache when installing CM7?
In my experience, sometimes, you can fix the Wifi/3G issues by toggling Airplane mode, wait a bit and try again. You don't have service at all or is the signal icon just white instead of green? Also, maybe try 1st with just installing the stock CM7 without the glitch kernel..
Yes, i wiped my system, dada and cache (which the instructions said). Toggling airplane mode didn't fix anything unfortunately. When i looked into mobile services available, my phone can only pick up a rodgers signal (which my sim card cannot not connect to it for obvious reasons). Once I downloaded CM7, the guide says that CM7 has a default kernal already in place so i believe i don't have the glitch kernel running. My screen shows 3/4 white bars but no signal or mobile internet.

you may need to flash the stock TElus modem back...some of the guides here have a link to the file in it...srry don't have a link to it

That would make sense but once i install CM7, if I go into recovery mode my power (aka enter) button doesn't function so once CM7 is flashed, i can't flash anything from there.

You can still boot into CWM, but either using ADB, type: adb reboot recovery on a command prompt, assuming you have ADB working..
If not, another way to get into CWM is by using ROM Manager, which is included by default in CM7.
Like I said, I have a Verizon Fascinate, so I don't really know anything about a Telus Fascinate.
Best of luck...

would any stock telus modem (where ever i would find one) work properly on CM7 or would there be a certain model/version that's needed? I'm so close to getting this >.<

OK. Here is the thing.. As far as I know, CM7 doesn't flash a modem, so when you restored to stock TLJL3, that's the modem that you still have. You can verify by going into Settings, then About Phone. The Baseband version is your modem version. What does it say? What about the Kernel? What's the kernel version? And what version of CM7 did you flash? is it the latest nightly?
Also, when you flashed CM7, you didn't flash another kernel right?
Last thign, although unlikely, I've heard people here having success after reflash CM7 again, after wiping DATA and Dalvik cache..
I've attached the TLJL3 Tulus modem here just in case, flash it in CWM
Hello,
I've tried before, and was unsuccessful. I am on a small regional carrier and when flashing MIUI, my 3g or 1x data connection does not work and reception is very very poor due to being on a verizon radio. I have accuired my carreirs ODIN files, but running linux I use Heimdall. However, I've extracted the files and have the modem.bin file. When I flash this over my MIUI ROM, and try to reboot, I get some wiered error where MIUI wont even boot up. I don't remember the error and am at work currently(which is the reason for the spelling errors also, sorry).
My proccess is:
1. Install MIUI from stock
2. Boot and install Glitch V12
3. Flash new modem.bin through Heimdall using Atlas 2.2.1 pit file(a pit file is required correct?)
Am I doing something wrong? Is the correct way
1. Flash Phone to stock with carriers radio
2. Install MIUI
3. Yada Yada
Everything works currently but data, I have to connect to WIFI. Any suggestions for me?
I'm not positive because i'm on Verizon and have never had to do this but I believe using the pit file when you flash the modem is your problem..try doing everything you said in the same order but when it comes to the part about flashing the modem do not use the pit file that is used only when you repartition, so no needed for that
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Correct me if I'm wrong(probably am), but don't you have to populate the .pit file portion in order for odin to flash?
Sent me alink to the modem.bin i will prepare a cwm flashable zip for you.
That would be awsome demetris, it'll be about 2 hours before I will be able to do that as I am currently at work. I'll post it up here soon. Thank you

nope you don't have to populate the pit section to flash..you just need to use the pda button only, (never the phone button) if you were using an official VZW rom.tar and you wanted to repartition, then you would use the pit section but unless your repartitioning, it's not a requirement for Odin to flash, and would actually cause problems using a pit file with out an official VZW.tar...which is why I think you were having the issues trying to flash a modem with a pit file.
Edit: i'm sorry I just realized the instructions I just gave were for Odin and you're using heimdal...or wait...are you using Odin or heimdal?? I would wait for the previous posters cwm zip, because i'm unsure of heimdal's exact instructions, unless you are using Odin? but I still think your problems stems from using the pit with the modem
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
I am using Heimdall, and now that I am at my laptop, you do have to load a .pit file in order to add a partion portion(such as a modem) here is the modem.bin file demetris. I really appreciate the .zip file man! I'm hoping this helps me. Now I just need to find a way to push my carriers prl file to my phone so it stops pushing to verizon update.
Demetris, if you know how to make a .zip for a prl file, here is the .prl for my also.
I owe you one for this,
Thanks everyone!
What fascinate you got there, it seems modem is bigger than galaxy s family,
i think is the verizon cdma and i need to know where that modem lies in the partition.
Anyway i made one with the stantard bml12 partition that all galaxy s modems are i hope is the same on cdma
Here it is:
http://www.multiupload.com/AL7IBCDKMB
Flash it with CWM.
If you need an odin one just ask
I've got the version version of the fascinate. I500. I'll give this zip a try. Thanks again
Hi there guys!!
i really didn't want to start a new thread, but i have this issue i haven't been able to solve and there's not so many people over the internet that had the same problem. there are a few and i can't see any response for them or a thread that talks about it
anyways...
My problem:
Odin flash process always get stuck at AMSS download when ROM have baseband updtae
Cyogenmod on my phone it's so laggy and unstable (reacquires updated baseband)
Story:
i have the Galaxy GT-I5500L (America) came with 2.2. froyo already, pretty nice, but had some apps from Telcel(service company) so i decided to update the frimware to get rid of those apps and get a better functionality of the phone and maybe try a mod ROM.
i read lot's of different tutorials over the web wish basically have the same steps for flashing G5
wipe data, cache (factory reset)
get Odin, .ops, and the .tar file (i got them from samfirmware.com)
install samsung drivers on windows 7
get into recovery and flash the phone using Oding...
great pretty easy but, i stood there waiting for the flashing process to be done and after 60 minutes i realize something was wrong.
after a several tests and various Samsung Roms, Odin (or more likely my phone) always got stuck when odin tried to download the AMSS..

to get the phone working again (because it soft brick the boot of the system) just use odin and manually choose the boot file from the .tar file
later i found out about cyogenmod, i decided to try out, and had any trouble getting that ROM into my phone.
it might be a baseband update problem because all samfirmware ROMs came with Baseband and Cyogenmod don't.
so i could use some help here, i need to update my baseband because my system right now it's getting freeze every time i open any app, and so laggy. surely because Cyogen depends on updated baseband
some ideas:
-maybe i can try to flash my phone via CWM sd.card but i need a .zip file with the baseband included.
Thank you all for doing a great work!

Try a different versions of Odin and Flash ClockworldMod recovery and after this try flash with clockworldMod the CyanogenMod 7.1 ROM from here on forum.Is the best
You didn't mention it above but:
Did you root your phone?
Ive try the latest version of odin i found. (I will post later wish one was im on my phone so i cant get that info right now.) And have the 7.1 ROM installed allready from here but it doesn't came with baseband.
I havent been able to root the phone via .apk but i found a pc app to root it using usb cable and did the job.
When the process its on amss download and i disconect the battery or unplug cable. it says that the step has done and wants to go for the next step but oveously fail.
I have cyogenmod 7.1 and rooted. But very laggy and unstable

Don't use the latest version of Odin. Use the exact version that you're supposed to use - 4.28. You can find it on samfirmware.com.
Indeed i have been using Odin 4.28 from samfirmware. Using the latest was a sugestion from someone here and i alredy try it no results.
Is there a way to update basebans using CWM sd eith a .zip file? all oficial roms are. Tar

Just had this issue myself, Saw this thread, Just fixed the issue too. Cause? Damn Kaspersky. I had to "Pause" it from running. Then alla sudden. I was able to get past AMSS. Everything flashed.
So try turning your AV off too, that should fix it. (Was trying to figure this out all day myself)

first hard reset for device by key combination of volume up+down and power key simultaneously,when exclamatory mark appears then press the home key (or menu key) then it will reboot,
after rebooting start download mode and odin all over again,and inshaAllah odin process will not stuck,i tested it on my device too
so easy. Download stock 2.2 then in odin choose Debug ONLY then check pda format.

so i could use some help here, i need to update my baseband because my system right now it's getting freeze every time i open any app, and so laggy. surely because Cyogen depends on updated baseband
some ideas:
-maybe i can try to flash my phone via CWM sd.card but i need a .zip file with the baseband included.
Thank you all for doing a great work!
Ps. sorry about my English and my long thread but more info means more weapons
Ps.2 i posted a thread on samfirmware but got not answerd or support that solved my problem - samfirmware.com/apps/forums/topics/show/5667558-firmware-process-stuck-at-amss-download

good evening
my friend gave me his phone(sgs2 i777 at&t) so that i can flash for him a rom and i accidentally flashed an i9100 rom and now the phone wont flash anything.
the phone wont even boot either.
ive been trying to flash using odin
the phone is recognized by my win 7 computer and luckily i still do get the yellow bar on odin when i connect the phone.
each time a rom(.tar in pda section)(repartition unchecked) is flashed i get a fail
evin the one click odin didnt work and fails
then the phone says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue"
the only way i can get back to download mode is when i flash the root(GalaxyS2ATTRootZedomax) via odin
i cant get into cwm nor am i sure if there is cwm or not.
I9100JPKJ2_I9100OJPKJ1_I9100XXKI4_HOME.tar.md5
this is what i flashed
it has no pit
Zedomax is outdated. Simple search would of brought you to this:

i did an extensive search, ive seen this thread before (the DL links are also blocked by FEDS)
ive tried the one click stuff and also it didnt work
I tried to download the I9100 package that you flashed to see exactly what is in it, but it was downloading at only about 10 kb/sec, so I gave up after a couple of hours. I'm guessing that the package contains everything including boot.bin, sbl.bin, param.lfs, pit and csc for the I9100, as well as the other stuff.
If you still have the tar.md5 file, open it with winzip or 7zip or something like that and report back here exactly what it contains.
Most of the files you will need to recover your phone are in the Download Repository, but there are no specific directions there about how to use them in your situation. Will try to help, but am very busy with work for the next few days, so won't be here as often as usual. Be patient.

Uploaded with ImageShack.us
also using heimdell all i know how to do is adding driver using zadig which is succesful
no clue how to due command line stuff
Remove the .md5 extention leaning just the .tar extension. A tar is an archive file just like zip or any other archive. Look inside the tar and tell me what files it contains.

Go to the download repository. (Link in my signature, or in one of the posts above.)
Find and flash this Odin3 One-click Downloader:
I777UCKH7-CL503881 FULL Odin3 One-click Downloader: I777UCKH7-CL503881-Full.7z (MultiUpload - Contains I777UCKH7-CL503881-Full.exe.)
Just in case it doesn't flash successfully, please watch the results to see which elements pass and which one fails. Someone else in your situation had it fail on cache.img, but was eventually able to recover his phone.
This is no more risky than the I9100 that you flashed, but there is always some risk involved when flashing bootloaders.
I'll check in tomorrow to see what your results are.
you do realize you are supposed to EXTRACT the tar out of the zip right? i mean how can ODIN see a file thats INSIDE an archive?
not to mention you are flashing i9100 firmware/bootloaders/param.lfs, basically you are trying to ruin your phone
Try and change USB Slot?

Hi,
I recently bought a second-hand GS3. Unaware at the time that the phone had been rooted I'd now like to return the phone to its original self by UNROOTING it.
i have followed steps here on xda and also watched galyxys3root.com's unroot vid but to no avail.
the programs i have downloaded to do this are
-Triangle Away
- Odin
- 2 seperate stock firmwares from samsung-updates.cm for my region (ireland)
- 7 zip
I am still stuck though
I Open the firmware zip, to reveal two files, a .tar.md5 file and a .dll file
From here i believe i should be able to open the md5 file on Odin, however trying to open this file as a pda in Odin doesn't work because Odin can't even seem to recognise that the file even exists.
I have tried extracting the md5 file, this leaves 5 img files, i then extracted them using a program i found on xda called sgs2toext4 but from here none of the files could be recognised on odin either.
I also tried simply dragging the md5 file onto the phone's sd card but it wouldn't let me
At this point i am really lost as to what I am doing wrong. I know i need to flash the rom i've downloaded but how do i get odin to recognise the file?
I am a pretty serious noob in need of some pretty serious help.

hi
the simplest way to unroot is just to simply flash a stock firmware..
you can go to sammobile.com, make an account there and download your desired firmware.. use odin and just extract the .zip file you download and put it on PDA in odin and click start
i hope this helps
