Download the Root-Unlock-Relock Pack 1/1/12
This includes all the needed files (bootstrap is optional and not included) to root, unlock, and relock your MoPho. Extract the zip to C:\ , everything you need is in the extracted folder. I have tested this multiple times on three different MoPhos with no issue.
I downloaded that twice and got a bad .rar both times.

Should have PM'd me. I'll look into it and see what's going on.

DL'd and extracted just fine using 7Zip.
Yep, just didn't work with anything else. Weird.

I downloaded and used it yesterday and it worked fine...although some of the instruction were severely lacking--but I figured those out by going to the original threads.
So is the full 462mb pudding file out there still?
I feel like I've looked everywhere but all I have so far is the 1mb bootloader only version of pudding...any help? sorry if I'm wasting the space here and missed it elsewhere.

The 1MB file (derpunlock) does the job - it replaced the larger pudding file. Takes about 1 second to flash. As with the larger file, it will show "failed" once flashed (known bug with either pudding file, but it has really succeeded). Pull the battery, reboot, and you will be unlocked.

I'm a noob but i can usally grasp technology pretty easy . I'm trying to flash my phone but when i try to choose the file from the firmware (yes its in there i checked) its not there at first i just chose the folder flowed the instructions to see if it worked anyway but it didnt work. i tried both flash tool FlashTool version 0.2.9.1 and FlashTool version 0.2.8 but none worked (they were both the same i think) im using vista if that helps. Help please
First things first you're using Vista... Thats always a problem LOL... sorry =)
No, it shouldn't be...
You should just be able to select the folder that the file is placed in and it should come up on Flash Tool...
Let me ask... in the folder is it one file or a group of files??
i just put the rar file in there and unpacked it there

What files did you get out of the extracted RAR?
MD5,X10a_1.0_2_1_A_0_435 one text one ftf
Have you put all files in the firmwares folder of x10flashtool?
yeah i have
So you can see the files when you press FLASH in flashtool, and then select the file you want to flash? Where does it fail? Explain better.
i click on flash the i click on the 3 little dots to choose a folder it says the folder is empty. I can only see the file it i go in my download where i have my flash tool folder
That shouldnt be necessary, if you have the tft file in the firmwares folder it should come up directly when you click flash. Dont know what could be wrong! :s You have extracted flashtool right? And the firmware files..
yeah......
also i dont know if this will help but the only click-able buttons are flash donate and save log. The others are just there

Did you download the entire package ? it may happen if the download got interrupted mid way ......... in that case you'd have a zip file of a lesser size which can't be opened ....... try extracting the zip if you get an error you've got to redownload the package....
also ensure that the package is not read only (just incase)

ok... package is not read-only... it's -rw... so it's good....
how do i check the md5 checksum in multiupload?
i m downloading the latest version now... hope it wont get disconnected...
Find an app like MD5Summer (Windoze) to check the MD5 sum once you've downloaded the package.
Also, you can use pretty much any archive program (7Zip, IZArc, WinRar) to test the archive once you've finished downloading it.
If it comes up with fail for *any* file, don't flash that package/download it again. You might have to try downloading it from a different PC/internet connection like I did a while back when I was having probs downloading roms from home without them being corrupt.

no no... i mean before i downloaded the package.... is there a md5 checker tool so that i can compare wit the one that i downloaded?
ok i will try to download using another pc..
You have to finish downloading the rom/package before you can check the MD5 sum as there's nothing to check if you haven't downloaded it (obviously)

yes i know... what i meant was,... is there like a website that tells me the md5 cs in multiupload, so i can compare to the one that i had just finished downloading...
anyway.... thanks to the above poster.. i deleted it from my phone and then transferred the file again... and now it works.... weird,... i transferred first to my microsd, then to phone... i guess that method doesnt work... better to transfer it directly to phone...
thanks y'all!!! been a great help... very nice community here
The MD5 checksum is usually listed next to the link where you download the archive wherever you're downloading it from. Honestly, it's not that important. The most important thing is you get the entire file. And if you "test" the archive in 7Zip/IZArc/WinRar & it comes up all files OK you should be fine.
I've never had a problem flashing a rom/kernel where the test in IZArc has indicated all files contained within are OK/the archive isn't corrupt.

ic.... oh well.. thanks anyway .... ohh 1 last question.. so if i want to revert to the stock rom, i just do the same thing but with the stock rom i can download from samfirmware?
Why not download the stock rom from here ? I wouldn't know about files from Samfirmware as I've never downloaded anything from there.
If you want to go back to stock, download the rom from Intratech's thread, flash it in Odin, done. Again, test the archive integrity in IZarc or similar to make sure it's OK (given you seemed to have had some problems downloading an archive that wasn't whole or corrupted).

I just flashed UHLB2 from Intratech's thread.
My phone downloaded the file fine, and Odin had a green 'PASS!' in the top left corner. I think it installed OK as well as I saw the word 'Sucessfully (something)' just before it rebooted.
But now trying to turn it on, the phone is in a perpetual state of starting up. It just replays the starting animation over and over again.
What is wrong?
Also, I noticed the file I downloaded was ~286MB, as opposed to ~333MB in the file from sammobile. Intratech's file was .7zip, and sammobile's was just .zip.

I'm just speculating... I don't think 7zip files are compatible with Odin. That's probably your problem. The 7zip file from Intratech will contain compatible zip files. You can extract it using the program 7zip(freeware) which I'd highly recommend for general use anyway.

Yeah I do unzip the files with 7zip, after which it is a .md5 file.
And I've flashed many times before using that method so I don't think it's that. Thanks anyway.
.7zip file is not supported by Odin.
You need to extract that .7zip file, you will get .zip file that supported by Odin.
I think the downloaded file you used is incomplete. Most of the file sizes downloaded are around 350MB or higher. Recommend you re-download the file again or even an older release and re-flash the phone.

Just rename .md5 to .zip file.

No. Odin can flash .md5 so you should leave it. md5 files actually help because Odin can check the md5 hash and stop if the file is corrupt/incomplete.
But you have to extract it from 7z because it can't flash that.
Sounds like you've got an incomplete file if the file size is less than what you'd expect. Re-download and try flash again.
Also, to those saying extract the 7zip file; I'm pretty sure OP said he had done that before flashing and had used the .md5 file. Unless I'm reading his posts wrong, in which case, yes unzip the 7zip file and flash the .md5.

Hm..
I've downloaded and flashed again, but I have the same problem. The new file was bigger than the original one, so the original was probably incomplete. But the file has been at about 274MB for about 6 hours now on Intratech's post. I guess I'll just have to stick to LA4 for now then.
I am in the process of upgrading to the 4.03.605.1 rom posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1830859, but I am having issues with the firmware upgrade package.

Thank you! Does this file contain both the firmware and the OS update? I was able to download the OS update just fine on the other page, just not the firmware.
Appreciate the help!
Actually - that zip file contains the same error as the other link. Anyone know of a different location of a non-corrupted file?

Try the update to the global RUU. Found one on AndroidPolice but can't post link here yet. Just google androidpolice global ruu
Android zip files need 7zip if you want to look inside it.
Also check that you aren't renaming it as ph98img.zip.zjp because windows hides the file type by default.
So this was a two part issue! #1) post above was right about winzip not being able to handle the file.
Second issue was that I did not have the bootloader re-locked, which is required for this kind of update. I came from the tbolt which didnt require locking & unlocking.

I have uploaded the OTApkg from my Verizon 10 downloaded 7/6/17. I have not been able to run it on my 10 because of customization issues.
I have also changed the suffix of the filename to "zip" so it could be uploaded. You may want to rename it before manipulating it. The default name is "OTApkg"
You can download it here and I welcome someone else's better ability to parse the file contents.
MD5 is: e684728237328c1a59c8c53ab2308467
I've now extracted the firmware.zip and created two update.zips, one without boot (but stock recovery) and one without both boot and recovery images. Someone reported to me that flashing the boot.img could be problematic -- I do not know the particulars, just reporting what I heard. I have not flashed these files, so you're on your own. If there are reports of problems, I'll pull the files.
