Unrooting - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi There!
I have a fault with my newly rooted phone (Just rooted no custom Firmware as yet). Need to return it.
I have untriangled but I understand I need to reflash my device. My phone says it's this:
I9300XXALE8 so where can I find this to download and reapply? What is the method for application of the stock firmware?
Thanks very much!

I was able to get the exact firmware I needed from:
http://fus.nanzen.se/
It's discussed here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1032437
I used odin to flash it - it went perfect.

Hi There!
Thank you. Once I download the correct file, which appears to be a zip file, what do I enter into odin?
Will this remove CWM?
Sorry for the dumb questions.

I extracted the zip and got 2 files. One is a dll that you can ignore, the other is an md5 file. In odin I put that in under PDA and left the other check boxes alone - I did not repartition.
Yes, it wiped CWM and restored the factory recovery.

I am trying to download but it won't let me I am not sure why it keeps giving CRC errors. BY chance do you have an alternative source for this file?
Here is what I can see.

Any assistance gratefully accepted.

Sorry -
I don't know. The only other place I look for firmwares is:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&t=1&o=1&m=GT-I9300&r=-1#modelsa
There is an email address on that check fus website if you want to reach out to them.

How to switch back from I9100XXLP6 ## to 2.3.6?

Hello,
I just flashed with odin the new ICS firmware out on sammobile for sgs2 (I9100XXLP6 ##) which came with a file for PDA, for CSC and for Phone, but now that I am trying to flash again any 2.3.6. firmware I keep getting errors already at the start when associating my google account and stuff...
I assume that is because of the additional CSC and PHONE file that was included in I9100XXLP6 ## but I don´t know where to find the refering files for 2.3.6. firmwares since these only come with 1 file (for PDA)...
I would be glad for any help I can get
Hi,
Could you give more information about the errors? At what point do they occur? What errors do you get?
The csc files can be found somewhere on xda, use the search function. The file you need for the phone is called a modem, can also be found on xda.
Although I do not expect that this causes the errors, how did you restore? Did you while your phone and cache first?

What 2.3.6 rom are u trying to flash on?
If the DL was dodgy it would cause problems, redownload and reflash
PIT: if included, also optional
PDA:Code
Phone:modem
CSC:multi csc
Did you do a full wipe?

Make sure you are back on the GB boot loaders and that you have done a full wipe.

greetings hello I commented that the same thing happened to me the only thing I do is flash with this version XWKK5
follow these steps:
1.Install again (XXLP6) completely.
2.turn off the phone and enter download mode and install the (XWKK5).
3. Once you install the XWKK5 completely. turn off the phone and go into recovery mode and perform the wipes
I hope to help and luck.
I hope you understand me and sorry but my English is a bit bad jejjee
I flashed this update, throuch odin, and now the phone will only boot into download mode or the screen that says to use kies recovery. The problem is, even though I can boot into download mode, the computer no longer recognizes my phone. No sounds when I plug it in or anything. If I plug a jig in, it will come on so it's not the port. Can someone help me?

You need a three part firmware, with modem, csc and pda, flash with pit and repartition, to do a full wipe. I think you used a non wipe firmware, that's the reason for the bugs.
Question
When you flashed the LP6, did you flash it with the .pit file too? I suggest you flash back to your stock ROM but you also have to flash a .pit file as well. This happened to me too when I flashed the KP8 ROM. I reflashed my stock ROM but it kept giving me errors at the initial boot. So I flashed my stock ROM again this time with the same .pit file. If I'm not mistaken it's this: u1_02_20110310_emmc_EXT4.pit

Did you get the 2.3.6 firmware? If not look at this thread from Infratech: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278. Have a good look at the section marked "Individual CSC Packages". Maybe this could help if you suspect a wrong CSC being the cause of your problem.

Need Stock Rom for 5.0 USA

Can't seem to find a link to download the stock rom for the US 5.0 Galaxy Player. I flashed a new rom thinking I did a CWM backup, but apparently I only thought I did.
I've searched around and can't seem to find an ODIN tar or a ZIP that I can flash for the US version other than a file hosted on Multiupload which no longer works. I didn't post in general being that this seems more Development related.
If anyone can help me out I'd appreciate it.
....................
EDIT: It was a pain to find, but I found the multiupload link, googled it, found the cached page, found the name of the file, googled the name of the file and downloaded from fileserve. I then uploaded to my server. You can download it from there if anyone needs it.
DOWNLOAD: http://timcordova.com/iamtimmah/android/YP-G70_UEKI8_MIN.rar
Found it. Posted mirror in first post.
Thank you for finding it. I would like to ask you if you have tried it already.
I don't flash custom ROMs because
until now, I didn't have a stock recovery ROM to restore in case something goes wrong or I didn't like the new ROM. And I don't think Best Buy would want to replace a device with a cracked screen if custom software is installed.
Please, let me know.
Thank you in advance.

I have tried it. I just flashed back to stock. I had to Wipe data via CWM before flashing back. On the first boot it took me to Stock recovery where I wiped data and wiped the cache. It's now working perfect.
As far as I know there seems to only be one custom rom for the US 5.0. Various kernels to try though.
So, in case I just want to restore to stock with the file you made available, I need to have a custom kernel so I can use CWM?, or I can do it from the stock recovery window?.
And the only two options to flash a kernel and a ROM I see for the SGP 5.0 are "Entropy's Daily Driver" and "Eryigit-GB-2.3.6 G70ZCKPA ROM", have you found other options?
Thank you.

Normally you only need to flash the pda, but if you want to re-partition your device then use the pit file as well.

When you turn it off just hold the volume down button before turning it on and you should get there in a couple of seconds.
after flashing i got bootloops, but i did factory reset and wipe partion cache , and it worked well

Welcome to the Dev section for the Galaxy Player. This is for development, not for installation help. You should be able to ask in General.
Flashing ROMs can be scary at first, but the Dev board is best left for software development, feedback, etc. It makes it easier for the Devs not to have to wade through a field of nonsense.
tl;dr:
Post questions in General, not in Dev. It's a common mistake, don't worry too much.

Flash the stock rom found here via Odin3 and if it is rooted, download Root Browser from play store and and delete superuser.apk in system/app and delete su binary in system/bin and after you delete these two, reboot and uninstall root browser and you should be good.

Hi guys,
Im having a difficult time finding out how i can get back to the nordic official samsung rom.
I have no idea what i should flash and if i need Odin or just use recovery..
So if there is a kind soul out there that can point me to the correct files, and explain it step by step, i will be forever gratefull!
Yes, I know there are some guides, and i have tried reading them.. But I dont want to **** this up, as I need the phone tomorrow for work :/
So, please, if you can help me, i will be very gratefull
Phone: Samsung Galaxy S2
Country: Norway
Check the model under the battery.
Go to sammobile.com and get your ROM for your region.
Or use checkfus downloader and get the ROM for Norway.
Also mind you, You can flash any region ROM for i9100 in your phone.

Ok i now have the rom from Sammobile and Odin with a Pit file.
I must then go to download mode on phone, and what settings should i have when i now flash?
Should i use the PIT file?
The guide from sammobile was just a repair guide, didnt help me at all..
I have I9100XXLPQ_I9100OXXLPD_NEE.zip.
I have Odin.
What now?
Whatever you do, don't use the PIT file.

But what do i need to do then?
I have the I9100XXLPQ_I9100OXXLPD_NEE.zip (should i extract it?).
And Odin ready.
Do I need more files?
Follow the flashing guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
Chris.
No don't use pit, don't know how you get that.
Just extract the zip file you will get tar.md5, put it in pda under Odin.
Also the file you got is ics, just to let you know, if that matters.
So this is how i understand it after reading alot.
1. Unzip the I9100XXLPQ_I9100OXXLPD_NEE.zip
2. Open Odin 1.83
3. Choose the unzipped file I9100XXLPQ_I9100OXXLPD_I9100XXLPQ_HOME.tar.md5 as PDA.
4. Flash without ticking ANY of the options in Odin.
5. Sucess??
Can someone PLEASE confirm?
Already linked above the guide
See exactly what to check what to uncheck

[Q] GS3 cant flash in download mode with odin

Hi guys I would really appreciate some help with a problem I have with my UK GS3 1900. I have recently rooted and flashed it with a couple of different roms courtesy of the info on this forum and have been using lucky patcher to remove ads and license verification on a few apps I was trying. I installed SPB shell recently and used Lucky patcher on it and it seemed to have worked but this morning there was a message saying there was a problem with the license and to download another one from the playstore. Then my phone rebooted and it got stuck on boot logo so I tried to enter recovery holding down power+home+volume up but this wouldnt give me the recovery screen. I have read a lot of articles about how to reflash it with Odin but I am a little confused. I am trying to flash it with the zip file firmwares I downloaded but this obviously doesnt work as it is asking for .tar or .bin files and none of these show up when I am using ODIN. What firmware would I need to download to give me these files and then using Odin how would I install it. Any help is appreciated I have looked at all the threads before I posted this and cant find a solution. Some say to use pit files but I wasnt sure which ones and I didnt want to mess things anymore.

GT-I9300_I9300XXDLI8-OTA-I9300XXBLG8_BTU_297718496 this is the file I downloaded originally and then from another post I found this file I9300XXELL4_I9300OXAELL4_I9300XXELL4_BTU downloaded and there was KIES_HOME_I9300XXELL4_I9300OXAELL4_566833_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5 this file in there and when I went to flash it with ODIN it came up with an error message and it fails in Odin. Is this the correct file cos when I went into the sammobile site put it my device details it gave me a 250mb file which never had a tar or md5 file in it.
It says on sammobile download .
I9300XXELL4_I9300OXAELL4_BTU.zip | 821.5 MB
Do not post WAREZ theft of developers stuff on XDA .

[Q] Need P7500 ROM to flash with ODIN

Hi,
Is there any place where I can get a ROM in tar format fot the GT-P7500 so I can flash it with Odin?
I have searched everywhere and all I can find are ZIP files or broken links to TAR files.
The ROM in my P7500 was bad and I can not make it to boot or being seen by my Pc other than using ODIN.
I'll appreciate any help!
Thanks in Advance

Thanks eushaun99,
I've had terrible experience trying to download a file from sammobile / terafile without a Premium account. More than 6 hours downloading just to realize the file was bad.
I read many posts talking about sammoible for stock ROMs. Available ROMs files for downloading are ZIP files, not TAR or MD5.
Before paying for a Premium Account... Do you know if ZIP file contains any TAR or MD5 file in it as those are the file type I need to flash my P7500 with ODIN?
Thanks!

You don't have to buy the premium account. Admittedly I haven't tried downloading from terafile yet, but I guess the download speed could be due to your internet connection maybe?
Once you've downloaded the zip file, extract it. The .tar.md5 file is inside.

I was having similar problems recently, w/ my tab, w/ sammobile, w/ terafile, w/broken links, etc. Very frustrating, I felt like I was running around in circles & getting no where. Then I saw a suggestion (I thought it was on this thread actually) to go to Chainfire's website & odin flash the appropriate files found there. I did & worked like a charm. Only problem is I can't seem to replicate that "Web journey" so that I could link you to it. Like I mentioned earlier I was "running around" the web like crazy trying to figure this out and simply can't remember my exact steps. But, I hope this information at least gets you headed in the right direction.

Hi, excuse me for the late response!
The ROM I used to flash my P7500 with adb is the CM ROM from the following post... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2098429
I have followed all steps in that post but I had to install Android SDK in order to use adb instead of Odin. Flashing with adb was so fast that I thought I did something wrong, but after rebooting the installation began and completed successfully.
I wasn't able to download any sideload ROM from sammobile, sorry.
I downloaded Android SDK from here: https://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
You don't need to completed all mentioned steps just to get adb, just install the platform tools.
Hope this help!
