Hi,
I've got some problem with the mini USB port and I'd like to send send it to samsung for the warranty. I need to install a stock ROM but I can't do it with Odin.
Is it possible to flash a stock ROM with a .zip through CWM?
use mobile Odin. don't forget to reset the counter.
ps our phone uses micro usb, not mini
which counter are you talking about?
is there a free version of mobile odin? I can't find it

There is in XDA , search it inside forum.
The counter he talks about is Samsung bootloader count how many times of custom ROM has been flashed in order to kill your warranty, but relax, mobile Odin doesn't increase the count.
More info about this, search "triangle away "
But be careful with firmware you flash into the phone, because triangle away is still unable to reset count number in latest bootloader

resetting the counter requires root
but installing a ROM after resetting the counter will change it?
good
can you be more specific?
thank you

Apologies if I'm hijacking this thread, but this problem is almost exactly the same as mine. The microUSB on my S3 is also broken and I need to unroot before I send it to Samsung, however I'm having real trouble with SuperSU. It keeps saying installation failed when I open the app and am prompted to update it and I can't get Triangle Away to work as it says it is not being given superuser permissions. I figure I need Triangle Away to unroot my phone so is there any way to rectify this?

Go to Google Play, dl and install the free version of Super User from Google Play. Perhaps your version is corrupted.

If successful with Super User dl from Google Play then do an xda search for Mobile Odin Lite v3.57. No need for USB port. BTW: Are you certain that you are rooted?

One other IMPORTANT thing: Before you use Mobile Odin, make certain that your model phone is supported, there is a list of supported phones, just search for it.

Then go here for the Stock ROMs to flash:

Make certain you have the correct stock ROM for your country code.
Please take the time to read and do not proceed until you fully understand everything...it will save you countless headaches. My personal rule: "If You Don't Completely Understand It Then You're Not Ready To Do It."... works for me!

Quite easy my friend there are files floating about and you download and keep the save... Like so many others...SIMPLE
Again if you have the rom to which you need said file if you know how to extract you could also do it this way...
Here a easy way.. Flash your stock rom once done you can backup said file to a save place and if you need root again you know what to do..
if you want the original kernel...
download your firmware @ sammobile.com
extract it (extract all .tar files)
you'll find a "factoryfs.img". in the same folder there is a "zImage".
thats your kernel...

Send me your fone so can flash your fone for you and also put a 32GB micro sd card in for you at no extra cost.

Okay, so I have a Galaxy s2 i777 (At&t) version as my phone. The other day I rooted it and then I didn't like it was because my youtube and my camera wouldn't work so I tried to factory reset it right on the phone menu in the back up and reset section but all it did was turn off my phone and it wouldn't boot. I brung it to At&t customer service and they said that it usually voids the warranty but they'll give me a chance so they did a whole factory reset on my phone. Okay, so i learned my lesson that i got a bad Siyah kernal and i retried to root it yesterday and it worked perfectly. I also installed ShoStock 3 for the jelly bean rom and i got it. I got this rom on youtube, and he said that if I added this Siyah kernal, it was more smooth and better so i added the zipped siyah kernal into my internal sd from my computer. So I wanted to go into Clockwork Mod recovery so on the app Rom Manager, I pressed reboot in clockwork recovery mode and my phone turned off. Usually it would go into Clockwork mod recovery mode but this time it just froze on the Samsung Logo and it wouldn't turn on. I tried to take out the battery and it wont go into recovery mode. I will go into download mode though. Please Help if you know this situation. thanks.

Hey Guys,
Hope you can help me, a friend asked me to root his Galaxy S3.
I did this using the Framaroot App and all was fine, but now SKY Go does not work on his device as Sky don't like rooted devices !!
He has now asked if i can unroot his device.
How can I remove superuser and the binaries so that the app will work?
Hope that someone can help.
Cheers
So have you unrooted the device yet? If not

Dude,
Thanks for the advice, I have now managed to unroot the device.
Forgot about unroot option in superuser....What a noob..LOL
Thanks for your help
Its alright using superuser, but it depends how you rooted and what you want to achieve. Yes it removes root from the rom, but it will leave it with a custom recovery if you had one.
Thanks

Dude,
I rooted using Framaroot, but have not installed any recovery on the device at the moment.
The issue was with the Sky Go app which dont like rooted devices.
Might see if I can modify the apk so that it can run on rooted devices.
Thanks for the help .

As the hotfile.com was permanantly shutdown, it was difficult for me to find out the stock firmware for your device.
According to your description, I found this rom to match with it.
Click here to view
Download it and flash it like you did before.
Ensure you have followed the precautions that I have mentioned before.
If you want other Samsung S3 firmwares, here is the link to the same website: Click here to view
Try to flash it again and check whether it works.
If it doesn't, PM me soon. I will try to provide another solution.
Press thanks if I have helped you.

The guide you made for flashing is great :good: But the problem is sammobile has each and every firmware uploaded on hotfile.com. Now as it is closed, it is impossible for anyone to download these firmware packages. Sammobile also now trying to reupload the files on another base site and also this process is not yet complete.

I am sorry I didn't mention precautions anywhere before. It was another thread. Lol

Precautions:
Make sure you flash stock rom after enabling download mode.
Also make sure you have downloaded the correct stock package for your phone and you have attached these package at the right place in odin.
Do not select any extra options in odin like erase nandroid and all. Just leave it as it is with the default settings.
Also make sure you have inserted your sdcard.
