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.

NO!!!!
You're not supposed to extract that....
pit and tar files are for Odin and going back to stock...
I'll help you flash this....just tell me if you are rooted and what ROM are you running now??

I'm already running nero v3. I used rom manager. I just wanted to reflash because I couldn't send mms texts and someone suggested that maybe I should reflash using odin to fix it.
If I want upgrade from Nero v2 to Nero v3 all I have to do is disabled Voodoo lagfix and by rom manager select the romantic I want check wipe and follow the rest of the instructions?? Thank you

No you just re-flash it following the CWR procedures you used to flash it originally.

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.

HELP! Flashed wrong kernel?

Good afternoon XDA'ers!
I recently broke my phone and had a new one just sent to me now on insurance.
First thing i wanted to do was root it so u i could use titanium to do a restore from my old device.
Unfortunetly i was a little bit stupid in that i rushed things and think i may have used the wrong kernal/bootloader in Odin.
My phone rebooted and sits at the Samsung Galaxy S II loading screen with the yellow triangle.
I am able to get back into download mode, but not sure what to do from here?
Is there anyway to fix this? If so how?
Just flash right kernel/firmware

What have you flashed via Odin?
You could try to reflash from Odin the right kernel to see if it works.
This might help. Haven't read it all, though.

Flashed PDA using an Insecure XWKDD file i had from my previous SG2 root.
Also i don't know what Kernel to use now :-s
first, download this: http://hotfile.com/dl/136310155/64f8cc4/I9100XWKK5_I9100OXXKJ3.rar.html (pw: samfirmware.com)
start odin. get in the download mode and plug your phone.
Click on PDA and choose the "CODE_I9100XXKJ3....tar.md5" file.
Click on Phone and choose the "MODEM_I9100XXKJ3....tar.md5" file
Click on CSC and choose the "GT-I9100-CSC-MULTI-KJ3.tar.md5" file.
Click on PIT and choose the "...pit" file.
after its done, the yellow triangle should be gone.
unplug the usb cable, shutdown your device, get in the download mode again.
http://download.chainfire.eu/52/CF-Root/SGS2/CF-Root-SGS2_XW_XEN_KJ3-v5.0-CWM5.zip download this. unzip file and start ODIN click pda and select the tar file. then flash! now you are rooted w/o annoying yellow triangle! you can flash kernel whatever you want with darkyota

The problem is that my phone won't boot into Recovery like if it has no recovery installed.
Are you trying to get the phone back to a stock rom? Do you have access to a computer running KEIS?
What method are you using to get into recovery?

Yes, I have done it through Kies and when I try to go to recovery the phone go into a loop.
Sounds like you used kies to upgrade to official ics? Why would you need to get into stock recovery? What button combo are you using?

By pressing the 2 volume buttons and power at the same time
K. Sounds like you're gonna have to flash a recovery through Odin. If you're worried about the flash counter then I would flash cwm through Odin, flash counter reset and stock recovery in cwm. If you're not concerned about the counter, then just leave that part out.
Thanks for the help. I'll do it as soon I get home.

Odin wil not find my cwm recovery to flash on my computer!!!. what do I do now???????
When you hit the PDA box it doesn't bring up the tar file? It can't be a zip. Make sure you have the correct cwm file on your PC. Make sure you download the Odin file. I prefer the touch version myself.

no, no tar file. I have downloaded from several threads and unziped and they show in my computer but Odin do nothing to find them.
STUPID IDIOT OF ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,,,,,:silly::silly::silly:. I downloaded the wrong one,,,,,........ will try again...
The PDA slot in Odin will only see specific types of files. In this case, it needs to be a tar file. Go to the link above and download the Odin file for cwm touch.

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.
