If anyone needs a stock nandroid image (with root),
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=YWQJRO90
There is no need to flash this unless you messed up or just want to go back to stock (with root).
instructions:
DO NOT install it as update.zip . you are supposed to unzip the file after you download it and place the folder called 2010-09-21.18.31.12 in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup then you boot into cwm and goto backup and restore -> restore -> 2010-09-21.18.31.12

Nandroid makes a complete backup of your phone, all your data, apps, everything. It's like it takes a snapshot of your phone, and when you restore it your phone will be back to the exact state of when you made the backup.
The image i posted will take your phone back to what it was like when you pulled it out of the package, except with root. In order to use nandroid, you have to flash the cwm kernel and install the recovery for your phone through rom manager.

yeah, you will have to put the information for your gmail account back in, restore anything from titanium. It's completely stock, it has no user infomation on it.

ok well i tried to flash this with clockwork butttttttttttt it just freezes no luck ..what am i doing wrong
Ok, so I am getting my Fascinate tomorrow (can't wait by the way). I have been cruising the forums doing my research before I attempt to root, flash CWM recovery, etc. I am completely unfamiliar with with using Odin, but have used nandroid via Amon's recovery on my Droid Eris (which is running Froyo by the way).
Here's my question: how do I apply this image? Do I have to be rooted first, or can I go ahead and apply this zip and never have to fool with Oden? I just want to be sure I don't make a mistake. Eris development was firmly established by the time I arrived on the scene, so I have not had to worry about these kinds of things. Sorry if this seems like a noob question?

nope, the update is not compatible with root right now. Wait for a dev to release the root friendly vzw update.

I really appreciate the prompt response. I think I am going to wait until a dev develops a root friendly vzw update. Or I may go ahead and root and wait till then ..... decisions, decisions
I saw where you posted that some Sticky topics need to be compiled, wasupwithuman. I could not agree more. A couple more questions for you (maybe these will help someone else too) .... (1) How stable is CWM on the Fascinate? I read somewhere that it is a duct-taped together recovery that will do for now. Is this true??? (2) Should I just wait for a dev to develop a custom recovery (like Amon's on the Eris), or is CWM stable enough as it currently is? There seems to be some confusion about this from topic to topic. (3) This is unrelated, but has anyone confirmed Wireless Tether working on their Fascinate. I believe I read that it was somewhere else, but would like to know for sure. Thanks again!!!
P.S. - First link is down, but I found another guide on XDA and will probably just follow it (considering it uses adb which I am familiar with from my Eris).
I can;t seem to find a guide to install the right ClockworkMod so I can install Jelly Bean. Is there any guides on hbow to install a recovery and Jelly Bean from stock GB Touchwiz? (btw it is a YP-G1).
Thanks!

Just flash the Terrasilent Kernel with Odin to get CWM. That's the recommended starting point for installing CM10 anyway.
Remember to do all your backups (including and -----> **ESPECIALLY** <------ your EFS.rfs) first because when you flash the new ROM you'll want to clear your Dalvik cache and reset to factory settings, which would wipe all of the data on the device.
Once you've installed Terrasilent, press the power button and volume up at the same time to get into CWM.
I don't have my EFS.. I can't figure out how to get it back. I don't have a lock screen or a power menu.

Well, in any case, flash Terrasilent for CWM and then use that to upgrade to Jellybean.
In the future though, remember to backup your EFS before you flash a new ROM. You can't get it back once you've lost it, and faking one doesn't always work right.

It takes all of five minutes(if you have ADB set up) and I cannot recommend it highly enough.
Guys we don't even know if he has his efs so why bother flashing terrasilent? Hmm do you have a efs backup laying somewhere on your /sdcard like efs.tar? Maybe you can get your efs if you have this.

I don't have an efs backup. A friend gave this to me because he bricked it, but I unbricked it with Heimdall and there's no lockscreen or power menu, and I heard about this problem back when I had my Infuse 4G but I never ran into it.

Well, if you're absolutely sure there isn't one, go ahead with Terrasilent I suppose.
Zac, since you're here I had some questions for you:
1. I noticed that in the CM9 thread you said the gapps package needs to check for the EFS folder, but the CM10 gapps post didn't mention it. Is it still necessary?
2. Do I need to clear the user data when switching between builds of the same ROM, or only between major versions (ie. CM9->CM10)?
3. I noticed that "Cell Standby" is sucking up quite a bit of battery life (latest CM10 build). Is this something we can fix (or workaround), or is the problem "upstream?"
Thanks for all the work you and bbelos (and others) have put in over the past few months. It's really great to see it all paying off so well.

Hmm you could ask for somebody to make a dummy efs with the necessary information to get CM9/CM10 flashed into your device

1. It's not the gapps that checks the efs folder, it's the zip installer script
2. It's not mandatory but if you experience problems, it's recommended to do so
3. As I've already said in the FAQ, it wont change anything because the device don't have any antenna or anything cell related. The battery won't even be touched.
Would anybody here be able to do that for me?

If you have the INTL version, you have to download Kernel r14 (Odin):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1414565
Now, the Odin program:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2189539
1->Shut down your mobile.
2->Start Odin 3 (for example).
3->Connect the galaxy player with USB while pressing the volume down button.
4->Now, Odin will have to say that it's connected to your mobile. Then press on PDA and charge the YP-G70-Kernel-r14.tar
5->Tick ONLY Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time.
6->Pres Start and it will flash your Kernel.
7->Start your galaxy player while pressing volume up and home button. That's all! You will be in CWM recovery!
For US galaxy player, it's pretty the same, but the kernel is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1445840 (Download the .tar version! If not you'll be nothing with Odin )
Ooww... If it's a YP-G1 I don't know... Sure is the same but you've to find the adient kernel...

the problem isnt that he cant find the kernel. i kernel s included in the rom that you have downloaded and only needs to be extracted,
his problem now is that he lost his efs and doesnt have it anymore. you need your efs in order to flash CM10 because the updater script checks for certain files

I've seen mixed messages about this so I figured I'd ask to be safe. If I root my S4 and put TWRP recovery on it, I can flash a stock ROM in Odin and everything will be back to stock and official status for warranty, correct? Thanks.

This is completely off topic and I am very sorry for this I am just very desperate. But I mistakenly deleted a system file I shouldnt have without backing up and now the play store, youtube etc will not let me login. Can you make a backup of all the system files or even make a rom? Thanks. If you can it would be greatly appreciated. my email is [email protected].
Dark... you can do that but you would then have to lose root. My suggestion to you is you use the unroot method in superuser if your superuser has the option or get universal unroot from the play store. you would restore your backup of the stock rom and then remove all that you can like recovery and then use 1 of the methods i mentioned to break root.
The point being is you can go back to complete stock rom but if you are still rooted and they see then "no warranty for you!" (heh warranty nazi)
Stock

So, if I used Odin to flash the stock ROM, my status would still show "custom"?? I thought if you flashed stock, it unrooted and put it back to official?
Also, michaelgg13, if you can tell me which file you are missing, I can try to get it and send it to you if that will help?

Thats the thing I am not exactly sure which file it is. Im kind of stuck. it must be some sort of google service. Is there anyway to backup all of the stock files? I am new to android so I am trying to figure this out haha. Thank you for answering though.
no the su binaries will stay which gives superuser the write permissions to the root of the device such as /system
Flashing the rom back just puts all the files back as they were, plus you backed it up with the su binaries intact so it will still be there after the restore of stock rom

Ah, I see. Well, I've added a couple different things into my system files so I don't think you'll want all of that. However, if you have your files and contacts backed up, there was a thread somewhere either here or on another forum that had the stock ROM that you could flash with Odin. I could try and find that for you if you want it.

Ooh...I think you might have me mistaken. I'm asking if I flash a completely stock ROM with Odin. NOT a Nandroid backup or any other form of backup. Just a stock ROM with Odin. Would that reset everything back to official status?

EDIT: just tried the link again, it is actually taking me to the download page but the download doesnt work. so close i can almost taste it!
EDIT 2: after reading their facebook page they said they are having dns issues, so they should be back shortly!
ahhh maybe you will break root then. If i remember right from my Bionic if i FXZ'd with House of bionic it redoes EVERYTHING wipes the system.img.. just everything boot.img all of it.
I'm not exactly sure how that would work to be honest cause flashing the rom back may still leave those binaries in... this is something I'm not totally sure on but i still do not think it will break root.

You probably messed up something, don't ever lose your efs partition backup.
Did you flash csc or home_csc with odin? Use the csc without "home".
home_csc doesn't wipe your phone completely, also backup your data, pictures etc somewhere else as it might erase those too(haven't done this since forever so I don't remember).

Does everything else work?
Which firmware files have you flashed?
Also make sure it's the right one for your sim card.
Other things: Shut down, take out sim, boot without it. Shut down again, insert sim and boot it, see if you get anything on start.
Can you make calls even though it's supposedly enabled?

Did you restore any settings after flashing?
Can you make calls even though you are on flight mode?
Did you try what I said before with the sim card? Also try
putting it in the other slot.
What happens when you long press the airplane icon?
Do you see your IMEI codes when you dial *#06# or do you get zeros or NULL? Don't post them here if you do, just say yes or no

Again, you didn't take a backup before trying something weird and later something weirder, why?
I'd suggest reflashing stock but you should wait for someone else to try and help you as it may involve fixing partitions among other things.

Welcome, well good thing you had that. Worst case you'll have to take it to Samsung and them wanting to replace hardware, best case things haven't been overwritten so it's restorable through some method.
Pick a custom ROM and stick to that when you fix it.
In the future always make backups, especially since it's a Samsung phone and things that control your IMEI are more reachable than they should be.
Good luck!
