Hi everyone,
I am trying to restore my wife´s ACE back to factory using ODIN... a clean copy with her carriers latest ROM...
I have flashed it in ODIN but it still has all her content... and everytime I try to unlock the phone I am getting major FC´s that don´t allow me to do anything!
How the hell do I flash a ROM in ODIN when it is ONE PACKAGE... I have followed all the steps and it passes perfectly but I am still presented with my wife´s wall paper and FC´s... Help!
Do a factory reset in recovery then reflash it

One package is not a problem...

sape soh tekan?
When the flashing finishes do you reboot to recovery and do Wipe Data/Factory Reset?
ODIN is not for factory reset, is for flashing roms.
Fixed
I couldn´t reset cos I forgot how to enter recovery using the butons. I have now found out how to do that so all is sorted.
try another usb port

did you wipe after flash?
use the dial code to wipe.
or if that fails using cwm format system data cache and flash again using odin.
That happened to me. Same as above post,wipe all and flash with odin.

Hey
Can someone help me out
I'm on I9300XXDLI2(Leaked Jellybean ROM) i wanna roll back too 4.0.4- I9300XXBLH1-I9300ODDBLG2(ICS India)
The info i have so far
I know i can download the file from Sammobile and flash it via odin and i'll backup the files
Question are
1.Should i preform a wipe before or after flashing the ics to avoid getting stuck at Samsung Logo
2.Should i have Phone,CSC before i flash this rom
3. Are there any more Info i should know before flashing
I'll be leaving my town soon.. i won't have time to flash anymore leaked R.O.M:crying: thought i'll upgrade it via ota or kies
Just make a wipe data, cache and dalvik cache from cwm and than flash with odin the rom you want.

Depends upon what method you are going to use..
If cwm then do what the person above me said..
If using odin.. You don't need to wipe anything.. Guessing from the fact that you downloaded firmware from samfirmware.. You will be using odin.. So just flash the rom.. Install cwm recovery and then boot.. So that in case you are stuck at boot screen... You can wipe data from recovery rather than a factory reset..
By the way I am typing from my phone.. So expect typos!!
D experience learnt was from s2... where tried to downgrade from ics to gb...do wipe all (cache & data factory rset)..then flash or odun it...

Hi all,
So I was trying to re-flash a friend's S3 stock firmware I9300XXBLFB via odin and 1 file ROM, everything went fine but when the device rebooted it wasn't back to factory, in fact all the data was still there as if nothing happened. So I shut down the phone, rebooted into recovery and did a wipe/cache and wipe/data factory reset, rebooted, this is when it got back to factory condition. My question is why didn't it work the first time after I flashed with Odin? Is it because I didn't tick on re-partition and had no PIT file???
That's how it should work to ensure upgrading/updating newer firmware doesn't wipe phone data. Otherwise, we will be very headache

So ur saying that it's normal that nothing changes after flashing via odin??? Why not just skip this step then and just do a wipe cache and wipe data from recovery???

Flashing using odin is to change phone firmware /rooting or any mods that are flashable via odin. Is not meant to wipe phone.

Ok, So let's say I messed up my phone and the software get stuck a lot and I wanna get it back as new, do I just do a wipe data/factory reset and wipe/cache partition from recovery??

hi!
to get that brand new feeling, you have to flash a stock firmware first and just basically reset to factory settings no need to wipe caches because that is already taken care of when you do a factory reset
i hope this helps!

but the above poster Arsaw said there's no need to flash via odin to do a wipe...
Yes. First step to fix bugs is to factory reset which will wipe everything and start from scratch.

Quick question, why does Odin show the ID:COM field in Cyan and not yellow? Is it like this in the new versions? Also will Odin do the flashing process even if USB Debugging is enabled??
Yes, newer odin should show cyan colour.
Normally is it suggested to enable the debugging when flashing with odin. Why you think it will fail?

My samsung galaxy s 2 i9100 is stuck on the boot logo after I tried to install the note 2's multi-window feature. I figured out later that my rom was not compatible with it.
I am able to get into download mode and recovery mode but whenever I try to flash a new rom or reboot it just reboots for a while and then freezes..... I have been trying to fix it all day with no luck at all.. Please please help.
Btw my phone was running the 'revolt jb' rom.
You need to "Wipe data/factory reset" in cwm recovery. Then if you want flash new rom.
However if you need to backup apps/appdata then make a nandroid backup and then use appextractor on new rom to restore apps from the nandroid backup.
Samsung Galaxy S II i9100 stuck on boot logo
I already did a factory reset in cwm but I don't have any other roms to flash!! How can I get another rom onto my phone?? I am not concerned about saving any of my apps.

Don't start flashing if you don't even know the basics!

I do know the basics, I am just not able to use my phone to download any roms onto it.
Remove the sdcard and copy the ROM on it using your PC, and flash with CWM.
Or use Odin.

Of course its stuck. You wiped everything but did not flash the ROM. *facepalm* Either find a way to sideload the ROM to your tab through adb or reflash to stock using Odin.

No, you should put your ROM zip in your SD card, fullwipe, and flash.
