It only has . Tar not a. Md5 I downloaded it off the official website and extracted it using win rar?

I would not recommend using a pit file unless you know 100% what you're doing, and based on your posts it seems like you don't.

[Q] Trouble Flashing XXLSJ 4.2.1 from CM 10.1 nightly

I want to flash the leaked android 4.2.1 XXLSJ via Odin but I get these errors:
I've tried it with the latest Odin as well but still getting the same error. Any suggestions?
which kernel in cm10.1?
i think you have to download rom again... file must be corrupted.
---------- Post added at 08:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:24 PM ----------
ok change the file extension tar.md5 to .tar and flash again
I don't think there would be any problem with the downloaded file... But I will download it again.
Maybe I should have turned my anti virus off while extracting my downloaded file?????!!!
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Just to inform you, you are not flashing the leaked xxlsj as that is 4.1.2 and Samsung your flashing 4.2
Sorry, your right. Yes. I want to install the 4.2

Yes it will be very different as the leak has allot of bugs. The public release will also need to re-partition your device to give an extra 1GB to system.

[Q] Replace recovery.img in zip

Hi.
I'm looking for confirmation.
I downloaded the latest cwm touch recovery from their site. It's a img file.
I'd like to flash it from recovery. Is it safe to replace the img from the zip file from another recovery with the cwm one?
It should work, but is there anything I need to pay attention to?
Thanks!

You do know their official app 'rom manager' supports clockworkmod installing AND updating and when u start it it shows you if you have the latest recovery mod installed?:banghead:

Yes I am aware of that. Too bad I am to cheap to pay for the premium version which allows the automated flashing of the touch version.

Touch version, in my opionion, is worse than non touch. Roms are for theming and fun, launchers as well.
Clockworkmod and RECOVERY states are for serious stuff, a wrong touch and u can damage your phone. Much better to have to press the buttons...

But yeah try to flash. The worst is you wont be able to flash it or ur clockworkmod will stop working. In that case get to pc and reflash older clockwork mod by following a safe guide....
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Used TWRP or CWM Touch on thousands of flashed never a problem.
Any miss hit is not going to damage your phone and i find with TRWP you are less likely to miss the correct sequence as you always hit the right buttons .

Just to answer to the original question, yes it should be safe. I have done so many times with twrp and it has always worked.

[Q] Unable to factory reset, Root, flash or do anything with my i777

Hi Guys,
My phone has become almost unusable.
It is currently on version 2.3.6, UCKK6 stock un rooted.
From few weeks I am trying to root it, reset it but nothing is working.
Already browsed through countless threads but to no use.
Below are the things I tried
1) Factory Reset through settings menu
2) Factory reset through stock recovery
3) Factory reset through *# code
4) Update firmware through ODIN
5) Update recovery through ODIN
6) Revert to UCKH7 through ODIN
7) Revert to UCKH7, tried re-partition option as last straw through ODIN
Once the phone switches off all the old data/baseband/firmware/files (before April 30th 2012) is restored and new data (after April 30th 2012) gets delete no matter what.
One thing I noticed while trying to factory reset was below message
Can't access to '/system/csc/ATT/system/'
Need your help as you can see I tried most of the available options

Thanks.
Tried it. Installed the 1.42 and rooted. Once the phone reboots there is no trace of the apk or the root and it is back to the old version.
Somehow after the reboot whatever may be the change they are not sticking and it is always going back to the old version.
Check md5 of download use another usb cable and different usb port of computer, clean install of usb drivers. Run Odin in administrator mode. Try this too...

Well I am at a loss... Contact these guys they are great. Send them a email telling them every detail of your problem and I'm pretty sure they can come up with an answer. Also just in curiosity your signature says GT i9100 is that the phone you got or is your i777 got a i9100 ROM on it?

Please check and confirm if you have the I9100G (look under battery). If you have a simple bootloop, a factory reset should solve that softbrick. If not, go to SamMobile and download the appropriate firmware for your device. Then flash it via Odin (any version will do).
