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.

Hi xSpeced thanks for the quick reply. When I put my phone details in Sammobile it comes up with a PDA which is about 285mb is this the file or should I be looking for something else.

Just downloaded the file from Sammobile and there is no flashable tar in the file. Does anyone know where I can get it and how big the file is as it is taking me hours to download these files and they are all wrong.

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 .
have been using lucky patcher to remove ads and license verification.
As your problems stem from stealing apps from developers i do not wish to give further help .

good evening
my friend gave me his phone(sgs2 i777 at&t) so that i can flash for him a rom and i accidentally flashed an i9100 rom and now the phone wont flash anything.
the phone wont even boot either.
ive been trying to flash using odin
the phone is recognized by my win 7 computer and luckily i still do get the yellow bar on odin when i connect the phone.
each time a rom(.tar in pda section)(repartition unchecked) is flashed i get a fail
evin the one click odin didnt work and fails
then the phone says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue"
the only way i can get back to download mode is when i flash the root(GalaxyS2ATTRootZedomax) via odin
i cant get into cwm nor am i sure if there is cwm or not.
I9100JPKJ2_I9100OJPKJ1_I9100XXKI4_HOME.tar.md5
this is what i flashed
it has no pit
Zedomax is outdated. Simple search would of brought you to this:

i did an extensive search, ive seen this thread before (the DL links are also blocked by FEDS)
ive tried the one click stuff and also it didnt work
I tried to download the I9100 package that you flashed to see exactly what is in it, but it was downloading at only about 10 kb/sec, so I gave up after a couple of hours. I'm guessing that the package contains everything including boot.bin, sbl.bin, param.lfs, pit and csc for the I9100, as well as the other stuff.
If you still have the tar.md5 file, open it with winzip or 7zip or something like that and report back here exactly what it contains.
Most of the files you will need to recover your phone are in the Download Repository, but there are no specific directions there about how to use them in your situation. Will try to help, but am very busy with work for the next few days, so won't be here as often as usual. Be patient.

this is the zip and it only has tar.md5
this is the only thing i get on the phone
and this
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
also using heimdell all i know how to do is adding driver using zadig which is succesful
no clue how to due command line stuff
Remove the .md5 extention leaning just the .tar extension. A tar is an archive file just like zip or any other archive. Look inside the tar and tell me what files it contains.

Go to the download repository. (Link in my signature, or in one of the posts above.)
Find and flash this Odin3 One-click Downloader:
I777UCKH7-CL503881 FULL Odin3 One-click Downloader: I777UCKH7-CL503881-Full.7z (MultiUpload - Contains I777UCKH7-CL503881-Full.exe.)
Just in case it doesn't flash successfully, please watch the results to see which elements pass and which one fails. Someone else in your situation had it fail on cache.img, but was eventually able to recover his phone.
This is no more risky than the I9100 that you flashed, but there is always some risk involved when flashing bootloaders.
I'll check in tomorrow to see what your results are.
you do realize you are supposed to EXTRACT the tar out of the zip right? i mean how can ODIN see a file thats INSIDE an archive?
not to mention you are flashing i9100 firmware/bootloaders/param.lfs, basically you are trying to ruin your phone
Try and change USB Slot?

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:

There is an email address on that check fus website if you want to reach out to them.

Hi,
I think I bricked my phone. The phone is stucked in the Samsung GT-I9300 screen and I can't boot in recovery mode, I only boot in download mode
Someone can bring me the links for the stock rom but which are in separate files.
I need the CSC, the bootloader, PHONE and the rom (PDA) separately.
I follow some threads but I always receive the error NAND WRITE START.
I try flashing the PIT file but doesnt work.
If someone had fix a similar situation like that, please let me know
My phone is Samsung SIII I9300 (International) 16 gb
Thanks in advance

I'veen searching for this files and I can't find them , I look in the general section and Q&A and Troubleshooting section too and I only find the single file of the stock rom i need the files separately.
Or any advice to try to unbrick my phone
the single file conains all the files you need (.tar is a version of a zip file)
download it and extract them
you are trying to make this harder than it is
seriously, i suggest reading up on things before attempting to do anything
Try flashing without the PIT File

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.

Just to wrap it up in case it helps anybody else....
I wasn't able to download the ROM from sammobile / terafile, transfers ended up with timeouts or Network errors even with Premium Account. Anyway, I don't have such a problem with any other site.
I was able to flash the ROM I have (that failed with CWM) using "adb sideload rom_filename.zip". The tool transferred the ROM and installed it.

my samsung tablet is not bootable !!
can you send me this adb sideload rom_filename.zip ROM please ?

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!

Hey!
I first got my galaxy s6, model; SM-G920I around start of May 2015 and I rooted via CF autoroot a few days after.
Haven't done much since, however, today I decided I wanted to update my software to lollipop 5.1 and to do that I first had to unroot via SuperSU and then update via Smart Switch.
After all the preparations were completed in Smart Switch, my device failed during the process, sending me to the cyan screen saying, "An error has occured while updating the device software..." .
This incident rendered my device unrecognizable by Smart Switch and since then I have not been able to flash the stock SM-G920I ROM via odin, as it always FAILS.
tl;dr
-rooted phone
-unrooted phone for software update
-device failed during smartswitch process
-cannot flash stock via odin
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
[EDIT]: I cannot get into recovery mode
Can you get to download mode?

Just curious,
