Hi guys.
I want my phone back to standard and restores don't work.
I downloaded the sammobile I9300XXELLA_I9300OXAELLA_BTU.zip and I unzipped (to see the containing files) which are KIES_HOME_I9300XXELLA_I9300OXAELLA_742798_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5 and SS_DL.dll
I then transferred the .zip to my SD card.
Opened mobile ODIN
I then selected open file... (or which one do I choose if not) it then said that "this is not an OTA / Update ZIP file ! ZIP files containing partitions are not supported"
So what do I do?

read this sentence again what does it mean? The zip file you have is not supported. Hence unzip and just transfer the md5 file and it should work.

I got clockworkmod working fine, but I am unable to loan ROMs. Whenever I downloand a ROM it opens in muiltiple files and it also happens with TNT, Thi is where Im stuck
Step 3.
Copy whatever ROM you wish to install (it should be a .zip file) to the ROMs folder on your tablet. (Leave it zipped, Clockwork will install it from the .zip file as is). trying to get VEGan 5.1 final
Note: If the ROM you downloaded has multiple files, look for the one named “update.zip” and rename it to whatever you want (something to help you differentiate it from other ROMs), then copy that to the tablet. If an “update.zip” doesn’t exist, and you’re lost…read through that ROM’s thread and see if anybody else asked about it…if not then you probably should (on that ROM’s thread…each one is different).
I cant fiqure how to get the update.zip. When I do open the files i get 3 files
META_INF,boot, and system. I tried to copy and paste all three files in the ROMs, but it never show the update.zip
You don't need an update.zip with clockworkmod recovery... you just need the rom that is zipped and can be named anything.
Stop unzipping the rom you are downloading and just copy it to your device. Install that with clockworkmod recovery.

you've answered your own question, the rar or zip file you downloaded might be in diff names, but always leave it in zip format. if in rar, unrar and the zip file should be in it.
in clockwork recovery, you can update by update.zip or choose your own zip

That is my problem, if automaticly unzips when it downloads. I am not sure if its my windows setting becaue I am unable to download TNT lite because I keep getting " windows can no opem" message. Is there a way i can prevent it from unzipping? Thanks BTW
maybe use a diff browser to download or right click on link and "save as"
You might be hitting open instead of save ...
down load it direct to your Gtab
Download the file directly to your tab. Use ES file explorer to move it to your SD card if necessary. Reboot in to clock work - choose file from SD card-select it and install.
Hi,
I downloaded a ROM from sammobile.com for my galaxy tab 10.1, and all I want is system.img which is located in a tar.md5 file .
if I extract is with 7zip I get a message "there is no correct record at the end of archive"
and dsixda kitchen don't seem to recognize it .
any ideas please .
thanks.
Well its simple just rename it to .tar and use winrar to extract it. the md5 extension makes odin calculate a hash to check if the firmware you're flashing is not corrupted.
hi,
I did that and I got a message "there is no correct record at the end of archive"
the files are extracted but I think it is corrupted because dsixda kitchen can't read it.
just extract it by 7-Zip and don't care about message
I have this problem too, my 7-zpi say that can´t open file format unknowed or damage.
your download maybe interupted, try download it again and do md5 checksum

You might be opening the wrong file.
You have to download 2 files:
xxxx.tar
xxxx.tar.md5
the first one is the one you have to open.
the second one is the one that only have the MD5 result of the first.

Redownlaod and try to unzip again. Kitchen should open it, make sure u have kitchen scripts for your phone or edit from flashable zip. Afaik
best idea
dont use 7zip but use unoversal extractor. it will extract everything.
I have the same issue for 5301. I have to get either the recovery or system img for creating a custom rom. Usually samsung firmware files can be extracted using izarc, 7zip or universal extract tool. some can be opened with ultraISO or similar tool. I tried dsixdas kitchen as well. That does not even acknowledge this ROM. These firmwares come as a single tar file with md5 sum attached. There is something different about this ROM file that wont even let let the regular tools see what is inside the file. I tried to open it with a hex editor and it looks similar what a regular tar.md5 file would look. Looking at the log file from universal extractor:
TrID/32 - File Identifier v2.02 - (C) 2003-06 By M.Pontello

99.3% (.TAR) TAR archive (149/5)
0.6% (.LZMA) LZMA compressed file (1/1)
7-Zip Tar archive extractions cannot be logged.
If Odin can flash these files using the same boot, recovery and system... images then there must be a way to extract these img files. wonder if odin extracts to a temp location?

Use odinatrix to extrat system.img n modem files..
Its the easiest tool do so...
U may also use splitfus2 bt its way trickier to use than odinatrix.

Now there is only one xxx_home.tar.md5 file..
That was old days.
Be a part of new world.
N now u cnt extract through an archve manager.
U need espicial tools like splitfus2 n odinatrix to extract files.

Thanks SArnab! so finally I am able to split the files using odinatrix. Now for this type of turbo ROMs how do I create odin flashable file???
I created a regular odin tar file with md5 sum but that does not go past 'NAND Write Start'. Please advise.

Your pc shud b superfast so that odintrix can work witout lag.
My HP G6 lapi took around 10 mins to extrqct the one .tar.md5 file..
The tool will automatically extract diffrnt .tar files such as modem_xxx.tar pda_xxx.tar n csc_xxx.tar
Now u can use these to flash through odin witout any prb.
U can use pda.tar in kitchen to get boot.img n system.img.
Kitchen will also help u extract sysmtem foldr from system.img.
U can also flash through odin the single .tar.md5....
Choose that in pda field...
Odin is smart enough to do rest of the part.
Don't be lazy.

Appreciate the quick response. I guess my question was not clear enough. I extracted the recovery and created a clockwork recovery named recovery.img. Now I want to flash this recovery back on the device. I created the tar file using:
tar -H ustar -c recovery.img > CWMrecovery.tar
md5sum -t CWMrecovery.tar >> CWMrecovery.tar
mv CWMrecovery.tar CWMrecovery.tar.md5
When I flash this using odin3_v3.07 md5 is verified but he flash does not go through and stops at NAND write start. Is there a special way to create a odin flashable tar.md5 file foe these turbo firmwares?

how to install custom system ui/android status bar on system. my device gt-s6802. what's compatible with mine??
Hi all..
I have been using the Zip files, via CWM to update my CM10 versions.. All is well..
But I see the md5sum files that one can flash with ODIN there as well..
So my Q is: Do I need to flash the MD5's as well? If so, for what point and purpose?
Regards

Md5 files are checksums for the file you are downloading. Its basically a way to verify you have downloaded the complete file and that its the file that it says it is.
Here I'm posting how to convert .kdz file into a Flashable zip file, The list of files you needed are
Official kdz file
kdz extractor
LGwinTools
ext2explore
Cygwin (If you are a windows user) from here
dsixda's kitchen This Thread
1. Extract the kdz extractor to the new folder, just drag and drop the kdz file to the unpack_kdz.bat. You will find the .cab file in the same directory where you have kdz.
2. Drag and drop the cab file to unpack_cab.bat. The dz file will be extracted to /dz folder in the same directory.
3. Now extract and open LGwinTools file->open locate the dz file. Items will be displayed in bin files, now click on save to any new folder.
4. We need two files SYSTEM and APPS. Extract and run ext2explore then locate the SYSTEM file, it will load. Now click on save to any new directory(make sure the folder name is system)
5. Now rename the file APPS to "boot.img" (you have extracted from LGwinTools)
6. Make an archive .zip containing \system boot.img \META-INF(attached below)
6 Next process will be installing "Cygwin" read this
7. Installing dsixda's Kitchen read this
8. After you installation you have move the created zip file to \kitchen\original_update (In my case it is "C:\Cygwin\home\Santhoosh\Kitchen\original_update")
9. Run Cygwin
Code:
cd kitchen
./menu
10. Setup working folder and go to Advanced option select "Deodex files in your rom" MAKE SURE YOU SET THE API LEVEL TO 19 and choose both system and framework
11. After this "Rename the app folder in /system to app1" "priv-app to app" in WORKING Directory
12. Now again go for Deodex and deodex the remaining files. after completion rename app to priv-app and app1 to app.
13. Make sure the updator-script is untouched
14. Do zip align(optional) and make any other changes you want.
15. Remove unnecessary app like GooglePlus etc. Remove the Qtranslator and Polarisviewer apk and odex files.
Note: After Deodexing the LG Keyboard will not work, Remove it and add any other keyboard to app folder.
16. Now move to working folder and make a zip file of all. (/system /META-INF boot.img)
17. FLASH IT :laugh::laugh:
18. To Gain root access you have to download this and flash SU
I tried to unpack kdz file, but the programm (unpack_kdz.bat) didn't work. The text in a window is : "Error! LGExtract.exe is not internal or external command, programm or batch file". Why did this error happened? I use windows 7 x64
explains better.. please no root l7 ii p715 kitkat 4.4.2 ....

download and use this, dont download the kdz_extractor in the main thread.
So.. for the last step is, we don't have to build using kitchen but just archive the working folder instead?

Hi all,
I'm currently using LU200 and there is a problem when updating kernel:
1. I download kernel.zip for my phone and install it successful (this file contains: boot.img, ko file, update script)
2. However, when unzip and zip it again by using command "zip -r" --> I cant install this zip file (some errors occur)
I have checked checksum of those file, both of them are completely different (I see in many forum they use the same command "zip -r" to zip that file).
My question is: is there is tool for zip this kind of file? what is it?
