[Q] Flashing Rom thourgh Odin - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys I recently tried to install Android Revolution rom and I super wiped the phone but did not put the Android Revolution Rom on a separate partition and lost everything on my phone. I read online that I need to flash a rom through ODIN but I do not know how to nor if all roms can be flashed through ODIN. Can anybody help please?
Thanks

Visit sammobile.com, download the firmware for your phone and flash it with Odin

Odin
In my experience, you can flash any Rom using Odin. And on how to do this, Google is your friend.

I have installed cynogenmod7 on my Galaxy S2 and now I want to install stock ROM. I tried using odin and it didn't work. Is there any specific way of installing stock rom after installing a custom ROM. Please help.
I have installed CWM as well
Nope just place the phone in download mode and flash file in the PDA section of odin. Few topics below is stock firmware.

Did you try flashing it back to stock, and then trying to flash a new kernel and rom onto it. What are you using to flash it? Odin?
1. What did you flash to get there?
2. Can you get to recovery mode?
3. If not, flash a complete from through Odin

Yeah I tried that and it didn't work but maybe I'm flashing the wrong files...I dunno...do you have the correct files? If you do please share...thanks

You need to make sure your not flashing player 4 roms on your player 5, since this thread combines the two, it's easily confused. Secondly, download the stock ROM files, and flash using Odin. I'll post the links shortly to help make the search less difficult.

Need stock rom zip

Hi I hope someone can help me, I've been looking for stock 3e recovery in zip format and I can't find it anywhere. Any help will be much appreciated
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
I'd say the best thing to do would be to download a stock ROM from sammobile.com or CheckFUS for PC. This will wipe your phone completely, I know you want a flashable stock recovery, I've never seen one. The stock ROM will remove what I assume you have is CWM.

You have three options:
1. Flash any ICS 4.0.4 firmware with stock recovery here:wanamlite.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?fid=11
Don't flash 4.0.3 firmwares, those have CWM recovery.
2. Flash back your stock kernel, via mobile Odin on your phone
3. Flash stock firmware via Odin

Nandroid Backup for 16gb model

Hey all
We were trying to flash stock rom on a friends i9100 mobile and stupidly we selected .pit file (yeah I know stupid ,,,,,) It was a mistake and now when we try to flash a rom, odin gets stuck at factory_fs.img. We have checked for brick sectors but everything seems fine.
By flashing a kernel we can boot into recovery, that is possible we have done this. if anyone can plz provide a nandroid backup for this mobile we can restore from that backup. I think that this will work. So please if anyone can help us plz
Regards
Bilal
Flash a custom kernel such as siyah or Dorimanx, boot in recovery, flash custom rom through recovery. Job done

Thanks for you reply. I tried to help him flash Chameleon but it is not working. Any ROM that you would like to recommend, please ??
Maybe I am wrong but when we flashed earlier with the pit file, doesn't it mess up the partition ?? if that is the case will your method work ?? because all customs roms say ( if you are coming form this rom do this, coming from this rom do this and his mobile has nothing)
Thanks
solved, we flashed Resurrection rom and it worked then we flashed a stock rom.

help with basic rooting and flashing roms

hello all
i have a gs2 i9100
i rooted it folowing this guide short way (update from recovery)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1994544
it installs cwm recovery 4.0.1.5 and supersu.
i tried installing a cm10.1 nightly version for my model,it allways abort with staus 7.
i tried different nightly version,no success.
then i folowed the official cm guide:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_i9100
i flashed the zimage for cwm recovery via heimdall on linux,it went well then i booted into recovery to check and success.
i didnt want to flash cm at that point (middle of the day) so i rebooted the device and problem:
i could see the samssung boot logo with the yello triangle and then the screen goes black and..nothing.
for now i restored via recovery a backup i made on the older 4.0.1.5 recovery.
i also tried looking for a kernel that matches mine - jhls4 and couldnt find one nor a solution that solved the stsus 7 error.
what could be the problem?
That thread is so old now. More phone details. Firmware you have installed or had installed before you flashed cm? Model of i9100?
Phone model is gt-i9100
Im on stock tw jb 4.1.2
Never installed any other firmware just updated the official with kies.
I rooted it from the stock recovery-installed super user and recovery as update.
The rest is in my first post.
Appriciate your help.

Flash it with philz kernel for root and custom kernel cwm recovery that will let you do anything. Philz is the easy way to root and install cwm to your i9100.
When that's install do the wipes and reboot.
Thanx for your reply
Q: any phils kernel or one that matches mine- jhls2?
2nd Q: can i flash the kenel via recovery ? Or just heimdall?
And if i flash a kernel do i have to flash a rom immedietly or can i still use the stock rom?
Total noob at this.

Flash lss or lsw philz as its just the cwm that's updated in dif versions and yes this will work on your stock 4.1.2 no point in telling you to flash something that won't work on the ROM you have now then if you want to flash custom ROM you can do this from there. Either way is possible with philz . tar for Odin/hem and singed zip for stock recovery:thumbup: reading is the key to flashing well.
Thanx again
I read a lot and got a little confused.
Will do what u suggested.
Hope ill get it right this time.
Cheers.
