Ok..make sure you are using the correct files....your tar file should be "T959UVJFD.tar" and the pit should be "s1_odin_20100512.pit".
Can you confirm that you have these files loaded into Odin?

Ok...i would recommend making sure you got the correct drivers as it helps sometimes....i also recommend using the AIO Toolbox to install the drivers and flash to stock.....it can be found here:

i did that and now on odin, its stuck on setupConnection
hey guys, i got my vibrant working again! really happy. thank you Mr. Apocalypse
I Had CM7 on my vibrant but cant take the intability and lack of Gps. I have searched the forums and tried everything i could. I can get into download mode, but odin always gets stuck at cache.rfs. What do I do? i really dont want to take this to tmobile.
If you have the JFD pit and pda did you check the partition box? Going from CM7 to JFD you need to partition. Just make sure its the JFD odin you got.

It still hangs on cache.rfs. Im sure its the JFD for Odin. i downloaded them in one rar archive.
I'm frustrated.
At this point i would go back to CM7 if i could. The phone originally had the Phone-!-computer. its not doing that now.

Tried this and nothing
could it have anything to do with the file path thats on my computer? files scattered everywhere, but im sure my post will likely be pushed to the back of the forum. happens to me all the time.
No help for me i guess. It wont turn on except download mode, would tmobile know i bricked it if i sent it back?
You can try downloading the PIT and PDA from a different source and see if that helps.....just my 0.2. Good luck man!
try a different usb...
Thanks button if i helped
Just keep trying. It will eventually go thru. Several weeks ago I had this problem. After 3.5 hours it finally went thru.

@ skullreapper66 if your on windows seven or xp i guess keep pressing f8 or f9 one of them. when you boot up, until you go into a black menu and scroll down to disable signature verification

Didnt work. thanks though
Taken from my guide:
IF ODIN HANGS ON YOU:
- Are you using my files (all 3 of them?)
- Did you check the MD5 using Hashtab
- Are you using the cable that came with your phone?
- Have you tried other USB ports on you PC?
- Have you removed all other USB devices and rebooted (ie webcam)
Please check the MD5 of the pit/tar using Hashtab.

Hey guys,
I'm trying to restore my Galaxy S2 to the stock firmware. I'm currently on one of the CM9 nightlies and wish to return to the default O2 UK ICS firmware. I originally got this on by installing (flashing? I'm not too good with the Android terminology, sorry) clockworkmod recovery and from there installing an update.zip from the SD card.
In order to restore to the default software, I've downloaded Kies, Odin and what I believe to be the correct firmware, in the form of a tar.md5 file. This should be placed in the PDA option, correct? The boxes ticked are Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time, but the one I'm worried about is Re-Partition. Should this box be ticked? All the guides I've read are the same up to this point, but give conflicting guidance regarding repartioning. I don't know if being on CM9 will make this any different?
If this is successful, the phone will have all the default apps etc. and the yellow triangle on boot up will be gone?
Thanks in advance for your help, sorry I'm a noob at this - it's a reason I want to return to the stock firmware!
Bolt.
When you start odin, do not touch any of the left side settings. Repartition should not be ticked in your case. If successful, it will have default apps and yellow triangle will be gone. (PDA option is also correct)

Thanks, so regardless of which ROM I'm coming from, don't touch those boxes? When would repartition be used?
Thanks for the quick reply!

I've encountered a problem. I put my phone into download mode but Odin wouldn't recognise it. I unplugged it and restarted and now it's not vibrating at all? Any idea what to do?!
EDIT: AHAHAH forget that. I'm such a dumbass. It's just gone 12 which means my phone is in quiet mode and doesn't vibrate. Told you I was a noob.

I was on an international based rom and downloaded something that was supposed to be a fix for something. so after the download it took me to recovery to install and reboot. I flashed the zip and it obviously wasn't for my carrier because my screen went black then did the samsung logo, then my twrp recovery screen, but then right back around to the samsung logo. I can get to odin but not recovery. in odin it shows my phones product name correctly, says custom binary download and says no, current binary says samsung official, then system status says custom...Can someone PLEASE PLEASE help. I am so f***** without this phone...Please someone help....Thank You all..What can I do????

Lol yes, sorry kinda going crazy here. Thanks for responding, I appreciate that even. I was on Goodness i605 note 2. I must have screwed up by downloading something in those minsettings that was for a different carrier. It said it was a network error fix I believe. It then took me to recovery to flash the zip and thats when all hell broke loose. It just keeps booting over and over and after the samsung label it shows the twrp screen for a split second then it's just gone. It was obviously a huge mistake and I am an idiot for doing it. I have been trying to get things done through the pc and usb to the phone to fix it and that seems to be the other part of my problem is since I can't turn the usb debugging on on my phone i can't download anything through the usb, Right?...I'm a noob basically and obviously, lol but thanks for responding even if you have no advise.

Dude go into recovery with the rom still installed, and dirty flash the rom while only wiping cache and dalvik. So long as you didn't wipe system you should be fine doing that.
And read more. The op of goodness specifically said don't flash ANYTHING from that till he gives the go ahead. Or it will softboot your phone like it just did

Thank you for the input but I don't believe that will work, I can't get into recovery. I can only get into odin download. But yes I read that as well, after I did it thanks
I would tey returning to stock feom odin, and starting all over again. I am not sure this would work, but it is worth a shot.

Odin can be buggy, a lot of the issues are with USB cables and whatnot. Try some of these
1. Try Odin a few times, if it doesn't work disable any and all antivirus, reboot PC and try again.
2. If still no success, try reinstalling all drivers and yet again try again.
3. If that fails, use a different USB port.
4. If that doesn't work try a different USB cable.
5. If all else fails just try a different PC.
Frankly your phone has reached rock bottom so any fails with Odin should not make the problems worse than they are now. Keep us posted and good luck.

Ill give all that a go for sure thank you very much. Is there any possible way through your computer connected to your phone through the usb that you can turn on the usb debugging on your phone from your computer? Long shot I'm sure but it seems like if I could get that turned on I would be working in the right direction
are you getting into download mode on the phone itself and seeing the yellow triangle? you can flash the stock samsung firmware through odin which also unroots and then start over with rooting and such.
I would do what wto said. I have had odin fail multiple times because my drivers were not loaded correctly. Keep plugging away at it, and it might surprise you. Good luck, and sorry.....

Thank you all for being so helpful, really I appreciate it. Yes I can get to download and for the first time I was able to get those return to stock files to go through odin sucessfully but then it rebooted and then went into a different loop with just the samsung logo? In the post it said shut it down then and go into recover but I tried and it just goes right back into the loop? any idea from there?
I don't want to give you bad advice at this point. Honestly, this is my first Samsung device. You can still get into downlpad mode correct? If so, you are not completely screwed (hopefully). I will look around tomorrow, and see what I can dig up. At this point you know you can flash files with odin, so dont get careless at this point. I know how frustrating, and anxious you must feel. What a great learning experience, huh? My advice is to do as much research as possible. Getting late, so until tomorrow.

Did you flash the PIT file when you flashed the return to stock files? Which return to stock files did you flash? If you haven't already done this try flashing just the PIT files in Odin and see if that will work for you, if not then flash the alternative recovery ROM and the PIT together in Odin and see if that works.

If you can still get into download your phone will still be functional. I have a few questions.
1. What version of android were you rooted on?
2. Were you ever successfully rooted at any point?
3. Can you get your phone to be recognized in ODIN?
You shouldn't have to need USB debugging if you can get into download mode, for all I know download mode uses the same USB debugging properties as it is not in the OS yet.
Keep us posted and please don't leave out details in-case someone else comes around with a similar issue. If you do get something working, try to put a step-by-step on how you did it for future reference.
Great Learning experience for sure, I thought I was getting good at figuring out what I could and couldnt download lol..yes I'm extremely bummed and even more frusterated. I appreciate all the help and direction. I am truely sorry to even have to ask for help guys believe me. Yes I was rooted, yes I get recognized by odin in download mode and as for the version I was last on I am not sure exactly what I was on...i never got the latest update from verizon because I was rooted before that. So I rooted just after that verizon update that was the security patch I believe?? So I did the pit file with the root66 first and it keeps going all the easy tell the end of the download amd then fails...however I then did the pit with the stock restore and it passed, rebooted my phone then goes into a boot loop and I shut it down like it says in the directions and try to restart into recovery and it goes right back to the bootloop..its like I dont have a recovery set up or something anymore if thats possible?? I'm working now but ill be back to messing with it once I get off so any advice will be appreciated and put to use at 5mst...thanks again everuone
I am just thinking out loud, but if recovery is hosed, maybe you could run casual, and have it reinstall rhe custom recovery. I have no idea if this would work, but it is one way ro get a custom recovery back on. Still looking around for more info, but I dont want to brick your device completely.
Edit- You may try flashing twrp from odin. Here is a link to team.win's website, and download. Again, I am thinkong out loud, and none of my advise is bulletproof.

Hello all, I think I may have hard bricked my s4 but I can still get in to stock recovery and odin mode (download mode?) so Im sure. I've gotten out of soft brink many times but this one is winning and it's my daily driver. I'm fairly sure I partitioned ROM Slot-1 in Safestrap to small for the intnended ROM. Upon trying to reboot or power up I get black samsung custom screen and I have to pull batt to procede with only two choices: stock recovery and a file from my sd card or odin mode with proper zip file and procedure. Kies doesnt recognize and I've tried going back to NC5 through odin but that fails. I've reflashed the vrunk1 kernel and it doesnt fail but blk custom screen interupts and freezes the process.
Any help is appreciated. I FEEL that the phone is recoverable but hope is dwindling. Thanks to all.
