Okay in the last three days I have softbricked my vibrant several times. Each time after tyring to update to a newer ROM. Now however I can not even return to what I had, only the Eclair ROM. I was running Tigers Breath Kernel with Bionix ROM
I should point out that my efs has hone corrupt mysteriously on this phone twice before in the past , and luckily I made a back up that was easily restored.
I now have a vibrant that was restored to a stock image however I believe the stock image is incomplete. It lacks the ability to reset.Says Something like reset service unavailable. I would be happy for now at the stock eclair image however I run into the same issue I had on Eclair before. Android Market will not download any apk, it starts pauses and fails.. When I look at the corresponding device in google play on the web I see it says PHONE and there is another SAMSUNG GALAXY VIBRANT T 969 . However the corresponding device is PHONE . So Google has no idea what my phone is. This could be the market issue however I want to point out that when I first set up the google account I can go to the market and download but once the market app is updated, it no longer works!
So a few days ago my goal was to attempt to install Gingerbread or higher to take a look at xbmc for android betas. The result has literally given me a 3 day headache.
before three days ago I was running Bionix and Tigers breath kernel. I tried to follow instructions to downgrade to stock and then to Gingerbread or higher. I have now made more the several attempts. All I can do is O|DIN to the stock image I have which complains that oit lacks the reset service.
Even trying to restore either of My CWM back ujps of Bionix fails.
I also have another interesting thing that when I attempt to install CWM from an update.zip I get screen goes black for a second then i see CWM running . It is as if it is running it instead of installing it.
The one image that I have that I can restore does have ROM manager that55 always reports a download error with installing CWM from there
Is there an image that I can install from ODIN that will get me Gingerbread or higher? ODIN seems to be my only hope.
And what of the market errors , do ya think my EFS is hammered again? before the issue was the electronic serial number (dont remember what its called) but the carrier stopped honoring the generic number it was producing. I do however recall last year that I could not get the market working and now I seem to have returned to that. I think it has much to do with the market version on Eclair.
would the vibrant be adequate to run XBMC beta at lest to test it?
Should I repartition from ODIN?
Is there a stock froyo image around at least that I can install from ODIN?
Thanks,
Mark
Yes you should check repartition when you use Odin to flash ROMs. There are froyo Odin images out there but I don't think there is a "true" stock 2.2 froyo image, only custom ones. I know there is a ROM uploaded by moped ryder that is as close as you will get to stock 2.2, fishman made an odin image of it. You can check it out here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1674519. I know for sure fishman uploads odin images with his 2.2 ROMS, they are far from stock but I love them. I've been running Axura resurrected 2.2 for months, its solid. You can check it out with this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1787267, it has odin images. Just be sure to read first and follow directions.

If it was me, I would Odin back to stock JFD. There is a guide on YouTube by Eddie1west that I recommend.
Then just I would follow the guide to install Gingerbread boot loaders.
Then I would download and wipe/wipe cache/dalvik and flash a fresh Froyo ROM download. I use Bionix V fishmans with the Bali kernel. Then if your satisfied then stop. If not, download latest CM9 Nightly (ICS). Wipe/wipe cache/dalvik and flash the ROM and common files.
Since you've gone this far download latest Helly Bean all in one, wipe/wipe cache/dalvik and flash HB and the add on file.
Might as well right? I had lots of trouble flashing up to HB yesterday, and I had never had any issues before.. but if your looking to get to GB or beyond... I would follow the steps above. Could be overkill. But I tried about every other combination of flashes I could think of before Odining back and doing it that way.

I am coming from one of team whiskeys 2.1 roms and I havent looked much into other roms since then about 2 months ago or so. I want to try going Froyo with Nero 3. I have Odin downloaded and kind of get how to use it and stuff. But when going from eclair to froyo everybody says to odin to stock.. Well which rom is the stock one and is it stock 2.1 I am supposed to odin back to or is it the 2.2 stock? and Is there any other steps I should follow after odin-ing back to "stock" I have downloaded much of what I needed and have been searching for a while And i remember seeing a post a long while ago on the steps i should follow but my search skills aren't the greatest.

If you are on Fusion 2.1, just use rom manager and install this using install from SD card option. You should be OK. If that does not help try ODIN.
Incase you are stuck and need to revert back to stock or want to take the long route just incase then use this file
Stock Rom
PIT File for ODIN
Thanks. I just tried it and everything seemed to have flashed over okay. I just didnt know if it was required to odin to stock first or not. Everything is working pretty good so far. gonna mess around with a few new kernels now.
Cant seem to get clockwork mod recovery to work
Any suggestions on how to get back into the clockwork mod recovery so i can install from zips again?

Install Rom Manager from Market, Make sure you have Busy Box & Super user app. Launch rom Manager, Select Clockwork Recovery, Select your device from pop up window. Select Reboot to Clockwork Recovery menu. Phone will restart, select reinstall packages it will restart again and take you into Clockwork menu.
Tried this twice and it keeps taking me back to the stock recovery mode... Dont know why.
*edit*
Had to reinstall packages twice and it finally worked. Everything is gravy. Gonna see if the SuperIO kernel is better than the stock+Voodoo5...
My friend just got his Fascinate back from a warranty replacement, and it is thus STOCK and bloated. Now, I hadn't ever used Odin until after I had a working new kernel on my phone, and my phone was already rooted.
So I was wondering, for my buddy's phone, is it possible to just use ODIN to flash the new modem and a complete rom w/ clockwork mod (such as superclean)?
I guess to be even more accurate, is there any reason why download mode would not work from a stock phone? I don't want to brick his phone since it took him 3 weeks to get it back the first time.
Download mode will work just fine.
You'll need to flash recovery via Odin as well to be able to flash a rom in CWM.

I was figuring on using one of the md5 files that have SC and CWM bundled together in one nice little package. I figure if it doesn't work, I can always try something else.
I'm planning on using this from androidcentral forums, forum.androidcentral.com/verizon-fascinate-rooting-roms-hacks/59348-odin-froyo-leaked-packaged-custom-roms-w-root-clockwork-updated-3-25-a.html to install superclean 2.9 in my stock Eclair. I just rooted my phone but have not flashed CWM. I don't really care about data or apps in the phone (I'd rather download everything from the market once I'm done) so I haven't made a backup ( I'm a real daredevil ).
Any suggestions or warnings?
Also I'm planning to use Heimdall instead of Odin (Since I'm running Ubuntu). Anyone has done it before. Are there any special instructions?
My worst case scenario is that it fails with Heimdall and I have to get to a Windows PC to run Odin and do it again.

Yeah. I've used those packages before, and that's what I was planning on using for my friend's phone. The only thing was that I've only used those AFTER I was rooted and had roms installed.
I installed a SC (superclean) rom from Adryn, then installed the eb01 Voodoo kernel, then installed the new voodoo kernel from jt (which is super stable). I don't know if you have to go in this order, but I'm not getting any FC issues., and battery seems to be pretty good compared to SC292's kernel.
I'm guessing you don't need to follow the sequence, since flashing a ROM (as far as I know) writes everything you need to make it work. To answer my own question, there is a [GUIDE] Flashing with Heimdall
Trying to flash to stock via Odin. Odin completes without errors and reboots the phone. The phone, though, shuts off after the inital splash screen ("Vibrant" at the top "samsung" at the bottom").
Since multiupload/megaupload was taken down, I'm unable to find any Odin-flashable stock roms/any kind of roms. I followed steps 2-4 on [I can't post a link, but it was on rootzwiki] and ended up with this.
Does anyone have any ideas? I've been searching for a solution for the past 3-4 hours.
Go to the Dev section and download tha AIO Toolbox (Stickied at the top). It has the Odin v1.8 (I think), all the drivers and pit/tar files that you need to get back to stock 2.1 and then you can download CWR from my signature, find a ROM.zip that you want to install and put them on your Internal SD card.
Make sure you put the ROM in a folder and also make sure that the CWR that you get from my sig is on your internal and is the only thing on it labeled Update.zip. Once those are done, boot into recovery, scroll down to "Reinstall PAckages" and hit it. Let it cycle through and you might have to do it again. Once it cycles through your recovery will go from Blue (stock) to Green (CWR) from there, you can flash your ROM and profit. [If you are going to an ICS flavor, you may have to be on GB bootloaders and flash CM7 as an intermitant step. I suggest trying Moped_Ryder's ROM and Fishman's Bionix Mod-both 2.2 but quality and everything works.]
The toolbox is a valuable thing and you can do many things with it, but mainly and most importantly, it HAS the files to get you back to TMo 2.1. (I use it all the time and I am not even a TMo customer).
Just flashed via the AIO toolbox, still same behavior.
Can't even get into the recovery screen.
What ROM are you coming from? If 2.3 or higher you have to tick repartition.
Just keep trying. I've seen posts where it takes many times for it to pass and boot up for some reason. Not sure why it does this sometimes.
I'll check on you later. My tablet got another update today, so I'll be troubleshooting over there later on.
I'm coming from ICS Passion v4 (I think, it's been a long whiles since I flashed it)
Just reflashed 7 times to no avail :/
Thank you for taking the time to help, it's really appreciated..

hi,
I am sorry if this is a dumb question. But i have failed several attempts while shifting to ICS (RC 5 by team-nyx). Every time when i install ROM & kernel via CWM and boot the device (vibrant t959) it freezes on the screen with VIBRANT and SAMSUNG displaying WHITE on BLACK back ground.
i have gone back to JFD and tried several times BUT same result.
I was on froyo 2.2 (build UVKB5) updated via kies and did it but no luck. I followed wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Vibrant:_Full_Update_Guide and did starting from No. 03 --
downloaded Cmenard's Kernel with the ClockworkMod Recovery 2.5
Heimdall Suite 1.3.2 for windows
AND upto No. 9 under Windows ONLY: section
the CWM installs as it says (A blue transfer bar will appear on the phone showing the kernel being transferred. The device will reboot automatically. )
after that i cleared factory, cache and dalvik cache.
then I select install Zip from SD card and chose the ROM (which is from team-nyx.com/index.php/releases).
after 3% it says rebooting and vibrant shuts down and reboots.. when after I clicked the combo (vol+vol-power) to enter the CWM its not there.. so I reinstall using [heimdall flash --kernel zImage] command in PC's cmd. then after i redid the same to select from SD and then ROM installed ok.
then I selected the kerenel which was taken by same source and installation went normal..
after I select reboot from CWM it reboots and hangs on vibrant screen.
I cannot figure OUT WHAT IM doing WRONG..
Please HELP ME..!!!
thank you for your time
I am moving to 2.2 via kies after going back to stock JFD. then i will root my vibrant. after that i will install ROM manager from market. THEN i will try to FLASH to ICS RC 5 + kernel from nyx TEAM.
I dont know what is wrong.. please HELP
From what you told us it sounds right. Have you tried a different ICS rom? Give ICS slim a try. When you Odin back did you checked re-partition?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using Tapatalk 2
You should try flashing the Gingerbread bootloaders using Odin after you flash back to stock. Those bootloaders can run a Froyo ROM as well as ICS so it wouldn't hurt to do either way. After you flash the bootloader then try flashing the ROM.
And try a different ROM like iwillkillyou suggested. Slim is good, but ICZen is very solid if you're tipping your toes into ICS.

Just so that you know, everytime you are using Kies, you are running the risk of hardbricking your device. It is notorius for that and in fact someone last week got HBricked with it.
I don't use ROM Manager and probably won't as long as I have a Vibrant. All you need to do is go back to JFD and pull the CWR from my signature and put it on your internal_sd and label it as Update.zip. Then boot into recovery and hit Reinstall PAckages (might have to do this twice) and your stock recovery (blue) will go to CWR (green) and you can flash away.
Also for more detailed instructions, se my ICS install giude also in my signature.

Thank you for the links.. I downloaded and place CWR inside SD. Without kies can we install official releases via Odin.. is there any way.. im sorry if that is a stupid question
No stupid questions. That is why we are here. I am pretty sure there is a flashable 2.2 stock floating aroung here. I personally don't have it though. Custom 2.2's are at this point tweaked so completely out, that they will blow the doors off any 2.2 stock ROM out there. I usggest Moped_Ryder's ROMs and Fishman's Bionix-redux ROMs. Quality, fast and stable. Not ICS, but everything works and no fear of the dreaded Encryption Bug.
PM incoming btw.

thank you. btw can we Flash to 2.2 via CWM .. directly selecting the ROM from SD .. without Odin
If you can find it, you should be able to. Just put on your card and flash away, taking care to wipe accordingly.
A note on flow though:
2.1, 2.2 -can go into and out of any 2.2 there is laterally.
2.3-4.0 -will need to Odin to stock before going back to a 2.2 ROM. Can move laterally from 4.0 to 4.0 though.
(i.e DO NOT try to restore a 2.2 nandroid or flash a 2.2 ROM when you are on an ICS variant. the /system is completely changed and reformatted. You need to Odin to get it back.)
Moped Ryder uploaded a semi tweaked version of the stock 2.2 build. It's a zip that you can just flash using CWR:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1674519
It comes rooted with busybox and some other goodies, but it's the stock kernel and whatnot. I'd highly recommend Fishman's Bionix-V Mod or Moped Ryder's Slim_Ryder ROMs if you're going to be on Froyo though. They're both great, but I went with Fishman's latest Bionix Mod since I couldn't get bluetooth to work on Moped Ryder's ROM. Which is really unfortunate because I loved Moped Ryder's otherwise.
And you don't have to Odin back to stock if you're just bouncing around Froyo or Eclair builds; only if you're coming from Gingerbread or ICS (2.3 or 4.0).
Keep us updated. I'm curious to see what worked. It's probably the gingerbread loaders. But, who knows.

BUT it didnt worked for me instead freezes at Vibrant start-up screen. So i Couldnt switch back to CWM. I Odin back to JFD with repartition clicked and my vibrant was locked (network lock). Finally, I got it cleared by application named Galaxy_S Unlock by Helroz from the market.
Now I am at the very beginning again. I am now on 2.1 JFD. I dont know WHY this happening to me .. :crying:
gonna try again with GB bootloaders.. BUT Im sick of failing and going back to 2.1 (my friends who are having captivate had no problem)

Thank you guys for the links and thoughts on 2.2 ROMs.. I am not that expert . Thats why i was updating to 2.2 via KIES -- which is not a good idea as it seems with the ability 2 brick the device.

BUT Im damn upset with the RC5 ICS update by nyx being unable to installed into my device.. I will try with GB bootloaders flashed ..
If you are going to go with Fish's ROM, then all you need to do is Odin back to JFD and pull the CWR from my signature and put it on your internal_sd and label it as Update.zip. Then boot into recovery and hit Reinstall Packages (might have to do this twice) and your stock recovery (blue) will go to CWR (green) and you can flash away.
Fish also has a Odin package that you can flash his ROM through Odin and not have to deal with CWR.
ROM Manager is no longer supporting 2.1, so if you do go back to JFD, then it will be hard to get RM. It is out there somewhere but really all you need is the Update.zip from above to do it. I suggest that you stay on Fish's ROM for awhile and read about ICS installs and all the little things that are involved. If you do flash Fish's ROM, you don't need to mess with the bootloaders.
Btw, aside from Kies, messing with Bootloaders is one of the sure fire ways to hardbrick your device. It only takes seconds to flash them, but do it wrong and, well you know.
Good luck and ask if you have any.

BTW may i ask you after moving to Fish's ROM and later if i need to move to ICS still can I do it without messing with Bootloaders..
Thank you
That is what we are here for in the Q&A/General sections.
Regaring your question about Gingerbread bootloaders being needed:::Yes and No.
Gingerbread bootloaders were required in the infancy of ICS ROMs bc they prevented what is called "Rainbows" in your clockwork where you couldn't see anything. The options were there but you just couldn't see them. Then as ICS evolved, the need for GB bl's lessened and now you don't need them at all.
But...There's always a but...Gingerbread bl's are recommended by most of the devs for ICS builds because they seem to work better with the custom recoveries that come with some of the kernels. There is more to it but in short, GB bl's are not required but recommended.
If you go to my ICS install guide, in the middle pages and more again at the end, Yosup (highly respected user) and I have a detailed conversation about bootloaders and their installation. Once he got over the fear and did it, he was hooked and flashing ICS ROMs weekly if not more. It is a very informative section of that thread.
Hello, at the start i wanted to install some new ICS rom for my Vibrant..i try to root it with one click and i couldn't do that coz i had froyo(2.2update)..so i read some forums and found solution in odin...i used that to turn back to stock eclair where i rooted the phone ...but the problem is that now i can't install any application on the device(i need ROM manager)..i get to android market and ,click on application but nothing is happening, no download at all...than i try to use android injection with apks that i found on the net , but nothing, i always get INSTALL_FAILED_OLDER_SDK...so now i am stuck i have: fimware version-2.1 update 1,baseband T959UVJFD, kernel 2.6.29 can you tall me should i do?? thx
Read the guide in my signature on how to install ICS ROMs. It has an update.zip that you can use for CWR.
ROM manager no longer supports 2.1 (Eclair), so that is why you can't see it in the market.
Download the clockwork mod recovery file (update.zip) and save it to the internal storage on the phone. Then reboot into recovery and install packages. Might have to do it twice. Then you'll be in CWM recovery. Install from from there.

FWIW, and this is not a knock on Team Passion (they do excellent work but few updates), but Euphoria is somewhat outdated. There are plenty of ICS ROMs out there that are more up-to-date and when ICS went from 4.0.3 to 4.0.4 there were significant code changes that were done. I suggest ICZen, or Slim or CM9.
But if you want to stay on Euphoria (AOKP based), this is from my guide:
If you get the RANDOM OFFSET error.
Don't freak out. This is an ICS security feature (as posted in Passion's FAQ post). All you have to do is pull your battery and boot back into recovery and reflash ICS over itself (just like you did with the initial CM7 bootloop) and it should push through. You may need to do this multiple times. I have read of people having to do it up to 5x. YMMV though.
