Feeling very Rusty trawling through the forum looking for a Modem File i can flash via Odin, The one i am after is I9100BVLP7.
I can only find the CWM files but i do not want to use these.
Would be much appreciated if someone has the tar file handy.
Thanks Ladies and Gents.
Extract the modem.bin file from the CWM zip & flash it in the phone section of Odin.

Buddy i already told that 7zip just puts in tar format but do not convert the files in the tar components(Mdem,etc)
You might explain what you are trying to achieve by putting a zip into a tar .
Are you trying to make a CWM zip file flash-able via Odin .
jje
Can it be done ?
Lol, that sounds cool. Anyway, I think I'll keep flashing tars with odin and zips with CWM because what you sugest scares the **** out of me. Anyway I'll keep reading this thread out of curiosity.
so your trying to make an update.zip file into an odin.tar file to flash in pda?
I think he ment if you download (for example) new clockwork recovery version in zip format (ment for flashing thru phone recovery) can it be transformed into .tar (ment for flashing thru odin) !
I would also like to know this.

Tar To Zip
I dont know why you are trying to flash a zip via odin by converting it CWM works just fine if u have the latest kernel. I did find some old cwm kernels were not seeing zip files on my sd card make sure you have the latest. From here K13 or k14 at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399 bottom of the page worked for me.
im curious about this, ever since i rooted and flashed my kernel, i cant properly install ANY CWM roms. on aborts drring verification. I was consierding repacking the ZIP and flashing with ODIN.... just annoying i cant flash any of my roms
Thats usual if CWM is 3e not 4e .
jje
I would also like to know if its possible to repack cwm .zip file into ODIN .tar?? Why? I dont want to have root. I tried with yaffey-v0.2 but for now, no luck.
Only problem is to make a working system.img. Tar package can be done with commands in cygwin or in Samsung tool kit...
Help anybody??

You are in the S2 Forum here. Which version of odin and which FW are you trying to flash? Whats the error message you get?
Yes it can be done and it's pretty easy to do. Google is you're friend. I've converted devil recovery and also modems and all work fine with odin.
Hi all,
I just downloaded this stock ROM from SamFirmware.com as it was a KG6 build and I wanted to give it a shot. When I went to unzip the ROM, it contained 5 files. I know which files go where in Odin when there are 4 files but this one has got me confused. The confusing part for me (being a noob) is the fact that there is a Kernel and a Code file...where do these 2 files go under? They both can't possibly be selected under the PDA section so is one a boot loader file??? I have taken a screencap of the zip file contents so that hopefully someone can explain where the 2 particular files go in Odin.
Thanks all.
How about following the instructions first .
Who told you to unzip it ???

Well he would need to unzip the archive if he wants to use the included tarballs to flash his device.
@OP: When you open Odin 1.85 just put the following in the slots as below:
PDA: Code_I9100XXKG6.......
Phone: Modem_I9100XXKG6.......
CSC: GT-I9100-CSC-MULTI-OXAKG6.....
Ignore the rest of the files. Don't need to use .pit file and make sure you don't tick repartition. I would encourage you to read up on using Odin first if you don't know what you're doing before attempting to flash.
Thanks Intratech..I am familiar with Odin as I have flashed my device successfully many times. Just never encountered both the Kernel and Code in the same zip so wasn't too sure whether I should use both or just one.
just curious but what is the actual difference between the two??
also, pit file is used to reset the path no?? as in wipe the lot except cutom binary hits??
cheers
col
Also wat happens when u do click repartition??? Done it by accident once phones fine??
Wat does pit stand for!?
Partition info tree? Lol who knows?

Is it necessary to root the phone before we can flash a different modem version or can we just conect it and flash via ODIN?
I've searched around for this, but couldn't find any clear answer. The posts on moden flashing says "use ODIN" but doesn't indicate wether rooting is needed or not.
Can someone help me? Thanks in advance
rooting is not needed when flashing with odin.
You need to be rooted in order to use CWM.
@Cosmic Blue : Thanks for the clarification
In odin, I just need to select the required modem file against the Phone section and then flash, right?

Go through intratech's thread first page..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
read it like 10 times before flashing..otherwise another "I bricked my phone" will start
N yes in ODIN select the file in PDA section and flash.
"Click on the PDA button and browse to the .tar or .tar.md5 file that you extracted in
If the package has more than one .tar archive then they will be labelled with PDA, Phone/Modem and CSC. Just put them in the corresponding section of Odin "

Hey guys,
I'm a total noob at a lot of this so I need some help. I've rooted my Sg2 and am now attempting to flash a kernel with CWM so that I can start checking out some of these ROMs. Problem is, whenever I download the kernel file, I see no .tar file for me to be able to flash via Odin. All the how-to videos show a .tar file available for flashing but any kernel I download from the forums, none seem to have the .tar file included in the zip. I only see is a META-INF and a zImage file which help me in no way. What am I doing wrong?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

A kernal is zImage, however unless I'm wrong you don't want to flash a non stock kernal using Odin. I thought this would increase flash counter. Unless it is mobile odin i believe. However you could try this sticky and hopefully it will help...

Thanks but no luck. That's just basically a way of flashing without your machine. You still need the correct file extension in order to flash. Tar is what I'm looking for. I'm not sure why this has become so difficult. I know that I must be doing something stupid. Any help anyone else?
codeworkx has a kernel, stock with ClockworkMod Recovery 5.0.3.2 that is a tar here.
The zedomax root CWM kernel, which you can download from this thread is also packaged as a tar for Odin.

Try using odin to flash this file. I used Odin 3.07 Unzip with 7Zip to a familair location. put the tar file in PDA slot and flash with your phone in ODIN Mode. Hope this helps. seen was a old post but thought someone else might need it as well.
