I'm searching for this original ROM and most of the links don't work anymore. I found a file with a .md5 extension but odin wouldn't recognize it and i changed the file extension to .pit. Tried to flash that in odin (might have been an old version) and now I'm bricked. Now I'm unable to get into recovery mode or download mode. Seriously feeling stupid now. Please help.
will it boot up at all?
You need one of these:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Download-Mo...690605?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item35b2e6182d
Then you need to flash the correct files and NOT experiment!
It is not. It goes to the (Phone)...!...(PC) screen. This will just turn on and off again if I try to enter recovery or download mode. I definitely bit off more than I can chew. From what I've been seeing the jig may not even work.
Try this, straight from my guide...

If you are getting a "Phone.. ! ..Computer" image (seen above) when booting phone, yes, you are bricked but it is reversible! Just follow these steps...
Make sure you have ODIN OPEN with admin privileges!
1.) Take off your back cover, remove your sim & mirco sd card.
2.) Remove your battery.
Make sure you have the USB plugged into your PC but NOT your phone!
3.) Hold the volume buttons.
4.) Put the battery in.
5.) Put the USB in.
You don't necessarily need the download mode image to be present. As long as you are getting the COM ID to light up yellow in ODIN, just flash back to stock like normal.

Ok, I want to try this but I need to know I'm flashing the right file. I've read that I'm supposed to use hashtab to determine this, but I have no clue what it is telling me. If anyone has a working link to something reliable, that'd be awesome.
Sure, give me one minute an i'll get it for you...

Also, hashtab tells you a file's "md5" or the file's fingerprint. This way you can compare the md5 of the downloaded file with the md5 I've given you. In short Hashtab allows you to double check if the files are clean or corrupted.
It's up and working again. Thank you so much. This was a replacement phone and my wife would've eaten my soul, I really appreciate that.

I just bought one of these JIGS. It seems cheap enough and will come in handy, cant wait for it to come in as the Vibrant is my sons (My old one) and I tried Flashing the Gingerbread Bootloaders to Upgrade his ROM and I Bricked it!! LMAO
Hi I think I soft bricked my Vibrant also. I was trying to restore the stock firmware using Odin. I know I've used the right firmware because I double and triple checked the hash for both the bit and PDA files. I flash these two and whe it restarts it gets stuck after the Vibrant logo and a battery charging screen if my phone is connected. Any advice? I've tried Eugunenes no brick mod, one click unbrick, and the AIO toolbox.

Problem with Samsung Vibrant, no download no recovery mode
Hi,
While I was trying to flash my Samsung vibrant with "aokp_vibrantmtd_unofficial_2013-04-18" in recovery mode, it rebooted by itself without flashing and stuck after the bootloader image and shows a red android robot with Powered by Mackay Kernel below. I try to reboot it into download or recovery mode with all the possible combinations, I get no answer.
Please, can someone help me?

I am assuming when you flashed back you forgot to flash a stock kernel at the same time. try using odin to get back to stock and you should be fine

Was gonna ask the same thing.
If you can you should be able to to use ODIN to get back to stock.
Sounds like you forgot to flash a 2.1 kernel before you rebooted.
yaddayaddayadddaaaaa
Surprised no one has said "OMG! WRONG SECTION! I'M NOT GONNA HELP YOU!"
But yea, flash a kernel if you can can. Check the Bionix website for them. Also, in the future, make sure you READ everything pertaining to a rom you flash. If you had, you would have known you needed to flash a 2.1 kernel if you wanted to revert.
Odin 1.3
Yeah I've done the same thing before. When you downgrade from 2.2 you must flash a 2.1 kernal first. Best thing to do is re-flash back to stock with Odin. Make sure you use Odin version 1.3 and not version 1. Search the dev forum for how to flash with Odin. The Vibrant is very hard to brick permanently so you should be able to recover from this soft brick.

You can flash any one of these ROMs and they will include the correct kernel and modem.

With phone off,hold volumes up and down and plug cable into phone.Don't touch power when doing this.That should get you to download mode.

use Odin to restore your rom!
I think the easiest thing to do is flash any of the ROM that have Kernels in them, I have only had to use odin once, and that was just to try it out. I always keep stuff on my card, But i guess if you didnt going back to stock through odin would be the next best thing.

Depends on what you flash, but even if its stock with no root, root is very easy on the phone, just do whatever worked for you the first time.
Hey guys, I'm looking for a little help here. I've been out of the loop when it comes to my phone for a little bit now. Because of this I've decided to come check out whats new and since I've been getting frustrated with my gps, and a few other things not working properly.
I was using miui 109160 which was based off android 2.3.5 and decided I would upgrade to ICS more specifically CM9 (nightly). I remember from when I installed miui many, many months ago, after you did all the steps you could either go to miui or cm. Also after you had the base install, any upgrades could be done with a straight flash. Because of that I thought I might get lucky and be able to upgrade with a simple flash, but no such luck. During the install the phone rebooted and was stuck on the splash vibrant screen. I tried pulling the battery and rebooting into recovery by the volume buttons (no luck there). I figure my last hope is download mode & odin, which luckily I could get into download mode. I have some old instructions on how to odin back to stock using Eugene's method (with his froyo that does not brick rom then going to true stock 2.1) but during this process odin does not go farther than the first step (modem). I have used this solution to revert back to stock at least 5 times and cannot figure out why it is not working now. I have included this process below in case anyone has had experience with this happening.
Could someone please direct me to the best way of getting back to stock via download mode? I found a couple partial instructions/tips which I was going to try but before I did I read another thread about a soft bricked phone which turned into a hard brick and don't want to chance it since I'm already half way there
Thanks in advance for any help/advice you guys can give!
ODIN Process:
Code:
Added!!
Odin v.2 engine (ID:3)..
File analysis..
Get PIT for mapping..
Firmware update start..
cache.rfs
modem.bin
Once it gets to modem it doesn't do anything more, it just stops.
Try just using the JFD files:
Extract the PIT from this rar: http://files.androidspin.com/downlo...in/samsung/vibrant/&file=s1_odin_20100512.rar
Here's the tar:
http://files.androidspin.com/downloads.php?dir=androidspin/samsung/vibrant/&file=T959UVJFD.tar
Source: http://androidspin.com/2010/08/09/how-to-restore-or-recover-your-samsung-vibrant/
Sounds like you didnt hit repartition. Load the above JFD and check repartition.
I've been trying this all night. It makes it 2 the second step now (FACTORYFS) and distance of the progress bar varies. But at some point it will stop and the phone's screen will go all green, white, or something like the picture below. Also I have tried with repartition and no repartition, same results.

Also what bootloaders are you on? Id say Froyo cause it looks like the "Rainbows" on your screen.
Bootloaders CAN brick the device do be carefull - you may want to upgrade to the Gingerbread bootloaders.
Thats not the bootloader screen, when using oden it goes from the download screen (yellow triangle/digging android) to this. When it happens odin just stops and sits so it doesnt finish the stock install

Hey guys,
I'm trying to flash the S2 back to UK Factory kernal as I want to take it back for a warranty claim.
I've unrooted the phone so far, but bnow want to restore the phone with a stock/factory kernal, however the links for the factory kernals in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278 don't work. I keep getting messages that the files have been removed due to copyright violati ions etc...
Can somebody please help?

Try here, if not Samfirmware, if not you'll have to flash an entire stock rom (which is what I'd probably do regardless if I was returning a phone for a warranty claim).
Thanks for the links MistahBungle, but what do you mean by 'flash an entire stock rom'. Is it not sufficient to just flash with a kernal from the links?
How difficult is it to do the entire stock rom? I'd rather be safe than sorry, if flashing the entire stock rom keeps the warranty inatct...
cheers
here you go stock rom ,kernek and modems
I mean, instead of flashing just the kernel, flashing the entire rom package (which also obviously contains the kernel). You don't absolutely have to do this, it's just what I'd do (just my personal preference).
It's no more difficult to flash a whole rom, just the download will take longer as it's a couple of hundred MB Vs a few MB for a kernel.
Do whatever you're comfortable with ;-)

:S connected phone in dowload mode and ran Odin, downloaded firmware file from site that apk_xiz suggested (downloaded one that had XX in the region, as that should be the one for UK?)
Loaded tar.nd5 file in pda on odin and hit start and the the phone just stays in downloading and nothing happens now?? Odin says all hread completed suceed 0 and failed 0?
Can somebody please shed some light
Check Windoze Task Manager & kill Kies/related processes if they're running. If they're not, go thru as many of the following steps as you need to:-
*Must run Odin as administrator in Windoze.
*Try different USB ports; you must be using a 'powered' or mainboard port.
*Try different USB cables (particularly the cable that came with the phone if you're not using it now)
*Try different versions of Odin (search on here/Google)
*Uninstall Kies, reboot, redownload & reinstall it, reboot, try the flash again. Also run Windoze Update.
And if all this fails, try a different PC. And if it doesn't work first go on the 2nd PC, go thru the above steps on that PC.

if that way won't work then i will tell you difficult way (adb way)
Thank you so much guys, think Its going back to stock now, still downloading as I type...
I've noticed though that the bianry counter states 3 downloads :S I take it I need to buy a 'JIG' tool to reset this counter back to '0'?
Or can I just do a factory erase/reset by holding up menu and power then selecting restore/erase option, would that reset the counter too?
Yep, buy a jig on eBay (costs a couple of bucks), provided you're not running the 'new' bootloader, the jig will reset your flash counter.
If you find the jig doesn't work, you have two options; flash the 'old' bootloader, or use Triangle Away to reset the flash counter.
But don't worry about that now, get your phone working, buy a jig (even if it doesn't reset your flash counter, could come in handy if you can't get into download mode someday for whatever reason) & see how it goes.
no you won't have to buy any zig to reset your binary count just root your phone and download triangle away and you are good to go .
enjoy
Okay, phone is working again with stock firmware...
Now, I already had a battery temprature problem with the phone, it didn't restart without plugging in with a charger when you would power it down... But now after restore, it keeps telling me that charging has been paused due to high voltage and the battery icon keeps flashing in the top right corner on the screen?? Should I just leave this one for the warranty then?
Seriously, you've messed with it enough, haven't you ? ;-P Send it in for warranty, add that problem to the list of other stuff you tell them about.

just the 'jig' and i'll throw it back to them I'll update once I hear back.
Thanks for the help dude
As Apk_Xiz, said, you're going to have to use Triangle Away to reset the flash counter if you've flashed an ICS stock firmware. Go to that thread he linked to if that's the case, read the instructions & go for it. But if you've flashed a Gingerbread stock rom, yeah, wait for the jig & reset it then send it off.

You need to uninstall Kies before running Odin. Check out the guide at the top of this forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43640820&postcount=1
Not so much uninstall it, because installing Kies is an easy way (for some n00bs) to get the drivers you need installed to make Odin work, but make sure it/it's child processes aren't running in Windoze Task Manager before you try to use Odin & end them if they are. It's those that don't play nice with it.
But that's in Hopper's thread, and the whole point of the thread/having info like that in one 'reference' is so we don't have to constantly repeat ourselves everytime someone runs into problems with Odin.

Not so much uninstall it, because installing Kies is an easy way (for some n00bs) to get the drivers you need installed to make Odin work, but make sure it/it's child processes aren't running in Windoze Task Manager before you try to use Odin & end them if they are. It's those that don't play nice with it.

same prob
If you uninstall Kies you have to install the Samsung USB drivers (attached at the very bottom of the post in that that topic I referenced above).
Either that or reinstall Kies and do as MistahBungle stated above.

yes installed samsung usb drivers from there but nothing happened
All I can suggest is that you read @Hopper8 Odin troubleshooting guide carefully. You will find it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2345831
Hopefully it will be able to solve your problem.
cheers
OP - take it to someone who knows what they're doing. I suggested that thread (which covers every possible thing that could stop Odin from working) this time yesterday, you've clearly shown you're unable/unwilling to even try everything (anything?) in the thread. So until such time as you do (or do as I suggested in the first sentence of this post), your phone stays busted. We can't fix it for you, only you can.

i have tried everything and many roms.
now problem solved. i have installed by my friend's pc. No error, it got installed. thanx for helping
Hi guys, i realy need your help, my phone is dead.
In the beggining i had a problem with power controller: Phone thought that it is constantly charging (For that time i thought that the problem is in micro usb port or in firmware)
I decided to flash it and go to stock via backup made by CWM a year ago.
But during this process the phone made a reboot by itself and after that there was no loading. I could see only name of the device and thats it.
No recovery. Only download mode.
I gave my phone to service center, they told that I have two problems: 1st is connected to power controller, 2 - dead flash memory. They say that port usb is ok (tried different board with micro usb port). They try flash it via Riff box Jtag but process stopped at data.img.
I took the phone and tried to flash it via Heimdall with brick fix pit.
After using this pit file, the phone was flashed normally and even turned on normally.
But in the phone info menu I saw no any data about internal memory. (It was damaged and required format). I tried format through phone menu and it did nothing.
I decided to flash the phone via Odin with normal 16 GB pit file and had a bad luck. I experienced freez during re-partition. After this, phone is a complete brick.
When I connect it to PC without battery pressing vol down and rower buttons it connects as unknown device but there is nothing on the phone display. No recovery, no download mode. Nothing - just reflection of my frustrated face).
Currently i'm tring to make a Jig, maybe it'll put it in the download mode, but hope is dying...
I've herad somewhere that it is possible to put it in the download mode in linux. Any other suggestions?
Replace motherboard.

Is it the only way?
If the EMMC is corrupted & a JTAG failed, that's the fix.
I want to revert an ATT i717 rooted, with CWM ver.6, custom KK rom back to ATT stock rom (I did try KIES but it didn't recognize phone as I understand due to rom being custom.) I don't have a back up of the original stock rom. All download links I have come across are dead. Need help to locate working DL links.
2-Wifey has the same exact phone rooted with CWM ver. 6 with stock JB rom. I am wondering if I take a back up of that and flash it to my phone if that will be ok or if that's a chance for a brick?

You have posted in the development forum. Try Q&A.
Also if you can't find Odin file here, try to search google. You may find an active somewhere else. Other than that, you can wait. if I ever get off work I could probably scrounge up a copy to my dropbox.
Let me know if you find. Sorry, I won't have time until tomorrow afternoon . In middle of a work marathon on 2 jobs.

here's a link to stock jb:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8CfFE5fSiMQS1NuZVZmUnRNYVU/view?usp=sharing
it includes the rom, cwm recovery, supersu, odin, kernel, and modem.
odin the rom first, then the recovery.
copy supersu to the phone and install thru cwm.
you'll need to update binaries.
also included is the current cwm recovery i use to install kit kat roms.

Hey thanx! Just a quick question - what is to update binaries and how do I go about that?

once you get done installing and the phone booted up,
start supersu and follow the instructions.

Finally d/l at work, odined the rom and encountered "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue, Please select recovery mode in kies and try again"
Phone cannot enter recov. mode nor download mode. I tried kies and 2 issues came up 1 my phone has no serial number, I entered wife's S/No. (same exact phone, both made in Korea) but the second problem is that kies wants me to turn off phone, and enter d/l mode which isn't coming up.
I tried my JIG thingy but same screen comes up.
How do I fix this?
ATTN: MOD
If need be please move thread as appropriate.

Could be, really don't know for sure. Note has this screen. Anything I attempt it's resulting in the following screen below. DL mode, hit volume up and bam, same screen. Recovery, same deal, try to boot normally = same. Even a jig gets the DL mode first screen and then bam! Is there any way to fix this or Is the phone at the point of jtag repair, or worse a brick?
