Hi ! Here is my problem :
When i'm trying to back to stock (2.1) through Odin it said - "PASS!", but when phone reboots - nothing happens, only Samsung Vibrant screen and then Black screen.
Before this i have ROM with Voodoo, that bricks me
PS
Sorry for my English
Sounds like you didn't disable voodoo first...in which case you need to odin eugenes froyo or 2.1 that doesn't brick
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I flashed on Eugene's Foryo that doesn't brick, after "adb reboot" phone goes into usual boot, but after screen is black only buttons LED's on. Is it normal ?
PS
Sorry for my English
yes...you have to go back into d/l mode and odin back to stock or whatever...eugenes froyo is just a stopping point to recover back to stock. its not meant as a daily rom
Here is the sequence to fix :
1. Download Eugenes 'Froyo that does not brick' file.
2. Extract the files.
3. Open Odin, plug in your phone, then put it into download mode.
4. load the PIT file in appropriate area.
5. load the .tar file in the PDA area.
6. DO NOT check 're-partition'.
7. Click start, let it finish. Your phone will load and reboot into stock recovery. It will error out again. DONT panic! This is what's supposed to happen.
8. Now, pull your battery.
9. Load the JFD rom for the vibrant'.
10. Extract the files.
11. Once again, open Odin, plug in your phone, put into download mode.
12. Load the PIT file into the appropriate area and the .tar in the PDA area.
13. THIS TIME you want to check the 're-partition' box.
14. Now click start, let it finish, and this time your phone will load up just fine!
15. Then, root the phone and you can flash your new Rom.
doing this method will get everything back to normal and the phone will work just like it did right out of the box
Good luck~~
it doesn't works for me:
1st - flash eugenes Froyo that doesnt brick ( no repatition )
2nd - flash Stock Rom (T959UVJI6 or JVD) ( With repatition )
and it goes into black screen after Samsung Vibrant
ok ! I flashed - (ROM)[ODIN] Unofficial TMO 2.2 Froyo ODIN *2E Recovery, And my Phone boots normal. But.. the Application Storage is 0.00GB, and Phone Storage is unvailible how can i Fix this ?

Download pit file "512.pit" 1. Stick it right with odind wher it says pit 2. Click repartiton 3. Put tar file in pda field 4. Start 5. Done .6 you should be happy now
BTW DONT USE JK6 .........DOWNLOAD UVJFD ! FROM BIBLE SECTION
E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 means you are stuck on ext4 partiton i assume u had custom kernel running before

YOU GOT IT WRONG ! ! !
ONLY UVJFD IS REPARTITON UVJI6 IS NOT REPARTITION "ITS A ONLY UPDATAE TO UVJFD"
JFD IS THE FILE U NEED TO REPARTITION
DO UVJFD PLUS PIT 512 AND SHOUJLD UNSOFTBRICK YOUR PHONE .(WITH THIS COMBINATION U CAN REPARTITION)

I ve tried both of file ( JI6 and JFD ) with re-partition. And there is no result. Only one Rom doesn't make my phone brick - (ROM)[ODIN] Unofficial TMO 2.2 Froyo ODIN *2E Recovery but the Application Storage is 0.00GB, and Phone Storage is unvailible
now since you got this to work FLASH ANY ROM ETHER STOCK 2.2 OR ANY MODED ROM (FLASH IT IN CLOCKWORK RECOVERY )
XDA WONT let me attach files i would like You to try because the files are too big but just flash any moded rom on top of where you are now .(or moded kernel or moded rom ether one is ok ) best bet is FLASH VOODOO kernel from dev section http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=870480 , pick one from the link and flash it in clockwork

Does it matter that Odins PDA must be only .Tar or it can be zip ? i followed the link and for download availible ony zip ( Through CWM ).
Only tar is for odin and always zip is froR clockwork recovery
I want You to download .TAR file because we are gone do it through ODIN not clockwork recovery .
Hey guys so I am interested in flashing the simply honey revolution ROM on my samsung vibrant. But I am stuck. The instructions call for you to flash via Odin with the 512 PIT file. But when I download the light version for first flash in the instructions I find a .tar file. How do I flash this rom? Thanks for your help!
I have the same question, since I am used to work on the EVO 4G but not this phone. Any help will be appreciated. I already flashed a gingerbread bootloader, but I still need to flash this ROM.
Put the tar file in the pda and pit in the pit section.
just use that file but open PDA selection. it will flash it. also make sure you odin a gingerbread boot loader first.
Ok, understanding a little bit more. Right know I have the zip and the tar file inside that one. I don't have any Pit file mentioned. Also in the instrutions doesn't say if the phone needs to be in download mode or whatever mode. Thanks for any other info.
It should be in download mode to use ODIN.
Okay let me see if I have this process correct. From the page I download this http://www.multiupload.com/KP8HBPR20Z from under the instructions coming from eclair/froyo. Inside I see the .tar file. (not a .pit file). In ODIN i put the .tar file under PDA and click start. Once that is done I can download the bootloader and flash that via ODIN. Is this correct?
yeh
or you could use rom manager to flash whichever package you want after odining the light version instead of flashing the bootloaders
dont do it
I just went through hell flashing that rom and even BRICKED my phone. (well semi-brick, none of the buttons worked) I made the same mistake as you. Dont use the Simply_Honey_3.8_LightOdin file, use the one that is named simply_ODIN_HEIM . The light odin is bull****. Didnt work for me. I dont even want to guess why...
Good Luck!
Remember to open the .zip and extract the .tar, zip's cant be flashed in odin
I want to unroot my tab, so i downloaded the stock ROm from samfirmwares. I got a *.tar with 8 files. (See Attachment)
My question: How can I flash the Firmware? I tried Odin but I dont understand how it works. Or can I make a zip and flash through CWM?

it took all my yesterday but i guess i figured it out.. find odinv3 1.85, this is the one which sees the tab correctly, then keep your files unextracted from the *.tar format.. its icon should look like a rar file but the extension must be .TAR .. then by pressing the power+volume down buttons go into the black screen which asks you between download mode and recovery mode, by using the vol down button navigate to the download mode and with the vol up key select it.. then connect it to the computer, once Odin sees it click on the PDA and navigate to your tar file and then click on flash.. in 3 mins it will say PASS on the small box.. then when your tab is on this time go into recovery mode and wipe everything.. so it will be completely stock and just like when it is out of the box..

I've read it, but the guide is not answered my question.
@_delice_doluca_: thx, i tried it and it works for me.
Hi XDA,
I got a S5830i from my friend to do a system backup because the custom ROM doesn't boot. I read that I have to do it with Odin v3. But there is the problem. I installed every driver, even KIES (It doesn't run) and the Odin doesn't recognise it. Only the Odin v4 can see it. So I tried with it and made 4 file from a tar.md5 file, it ended successfully but it doeasn't boot. I always get a bootloop with 2 different stock ROM. Unfortunately I can't try it with another computer because I only have a laptop which is run W8 and if I know it right, Odin need W7.
So my question is that why don't the Odin v3 recognise this phone?

Did you try going to recovery and wiping data and cache after flashing? I always have to do that after flashing with Odin, although I use Odin v1.85 or v3.07 for flashing. If you want me to attach them, ask me.
Press Thanks button if helped.

Somehow I solved it but I don't know how. I plugged the phone and ta-dam the Odin recognised it. I didn't do anything and now it's working. Finally I managed to get beck to the stock ROM so now everything is OK.
Thanks for the answer and maybe if you know why does it worked suddenly please write it down because I' m dying of curiosity. :silly:
Hi! So friend 1 had asked me to help him root and flash CM on his S3 and I gladly helped. We were having a tough time doing it although I did it quite easily on friend 2's s3. Friend 3 chipped in to help us out by asking us to use Kingroot and let it root the S3. I thought it was ok and we let it do its thing. After it was "rooted" we tried flashing CM. There was an error during the process and it said it couldn't read the binary or something like that. I then wiped /system through TWRP thinking that it would revert everything back to stock. Well, obviously it wiped Android. I am so bad with Samsung phones xD Unfortunately, I did get ahead of myself and did not backup the phone when it still had Touchwiz. Good thing is, I can still access TWRP and download mode. I've already downloaded a stock rom for the s3. Now, how do I flash it? Are there any other solutions?
Thanks
EDIT: I, of course, have Odin and through download mode, would happily flash the stock rom mentioned above. However, Odin only accepts certain types of files such as .tar and .md5 files. Are there any websites that host stock roms ending in .tar or .md5?
Download stock rom from sammobile.com. The downloaded stock rom was compressed with winrar. Extract the downloaded file, you will get .md5 file. Put your phone into download mode connect your mobile to pc. open odin click pda select extracted .md5 file click start wait for 5 min after flashing complete odin will show pass. Unplug your mobile from pc. Goto recovery mode wipe data then reboot system. first boot will take 10 min.
