[Q] odin help - not flashing back to stock

OK, I flashed to a new ROM and would now like to flash back to the stock ROM due to some issues with the new ROM, but whenever I do it, I wind right back where I started, with the flashed ROM, not the stock ROM (2.1). I may have deleted a file that is needed to get back to stock. Is there such a file? I follow all the instructionals and everything works well, it just doesn't flash back to stock?

We would need allot more details in order to pinpoint where you are going wrong.
My best guess is that you are not being recognized by odin, you are clicking start and nothing is happening. How long is the odin flash taking?

Im using Odin 3 v1.00. With the Captivate, I go into download mode and Odin recognizes it. I get the following
<ID:0/009> Added!!
Then I click start and the list expands to
<ID:0/009> Added!!
<ID:0/009> Odin v.3 engine (ID:9)..
<ID:0/009> File analysis..
<ID:0/009> Get PIT for mapping..
<ID:0/009> Firmware update start..
<ID:0/009> Removed!!
It says Reset up top, but when the phone reboots, it just reboots back to the Cognition 4.1.1 that I was running

I had this exact problem last night, I was trying to flash back to stock from a I9000 ROM I had installed and it wasn't running good for me. So I did what I had done in the past, I was using the Captivate ToolBox to flash back to stock, my phone would go into Download mode, but Odin never saw it. I thought that was odd, so I tried the regular Odin flash to stock as well, using the pulling the battery and holding down vol up and down and plugging in the USB. Still Odin didn't see my phone.... I then rebooted my computer, put my phone in download mode and plugged in into my computer and for some odd reason Windows said it was installing new drivers for my device. After it completed, Odin saw my phone and I was able to flash back to stock, so you could try that, it may help you.
EDIT...Oops, sorry not the same deal I had, sorry..

Try different usb port
Make sure odin is open first
Be aware of what build tourer phone is, located under battery something like 1008. If 1010 our higher don't use one click
If box in odin turns yellow and days "com#" then you are recognized if not you are not
Phone must be in dl mode
Correct drivers must be installed

Beowulf, you commented
YYou need to supply the firmware file to flash (click on the "PDA" button, and browse to where you downloaded it--you *did* download it, right?), and optionally the ".pit" file if you need to re-partition when you flash.
I think you are right, but what would I point to in order to flash back to stock? Where would I get it? I can find what to point to if I wanted to flash to Cognition 4.1.1 or one of the other custom ROM's, but I cant seem to find what file I can download/point to in order to restore to stock ROM.

I believe I installed the correct drivers (that allow me to connect to Odin) as I do get the yellow box and it says 0:[com9]. Phone is in download mode. Also, it says 1008 under the battery.

I wound up following teh lead that Beowulf gave me as I was using the full blown Odin and not the 1 click. When I watched videos on how to flash back to stock, I did wonder why teh version I was using looked different. I had assumed that it was just a slightly newer version.
To make a long story short. Once I used the 1 click Odin, I flashed back to stock easily. Thanks to all for your help. Much appreciated.

Help with Soft brick GALAXY S

Hey guys i have followed the guides , i was putting on a stock rom for my phone to be sent back as a replacement. it failed half way through the flash when i upgraded the phone to 2.2
<ID:0/006> Odin v.3 engine (ID:6)..
<ID:0/006> File analysis..
<ID:0/006> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/006> Initialzation..

<ID:0/006> factoryfs.rfs
<ID:0/006>
<ID:0/006> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
I can get back into recovery mode. I tried flashing it with the PIT PDA and CSC file. It fails constantly, i clicked re partition in one flash too it didnt work either. SO i am stuck. Any other suggestions?
Using odin 1.3 - It worked the multiple other times i flash it to different roms.

Maybe you're using Windows x64? try using another version of Odin, possibly 1.7 & make sure when you open it to go to the correct pit file & not the last one opened, also if the phone is going back do a wipe/factory rest too in recovery mode & then try reflashing with Odin, hope that helps.

Hi i used a windows XP machine with the same results. I did try 1.3 and 1.7.
is there another PIT file i can try? I downloaded a couple and neither worked.
I have no recovery anymore only download mode, the phone does not boot at all no phone -> computer icon.
Is the 512 PIT file the right one for the galaxy thought it was.

Have you tried redownloading the firmware? Or another source for the same firmware? Maybe its corrupt somehow. I know it is supposed to check the md5 but worth a shot. Or try an earlier version of your firmware, if it is for return they shouldn't care.
G

I have tried 3 - 4 different roms with all the same result, the phone was going back under a different issue (network related). It always fails at the same point from each rom.
Steps i have done.
1. pit file only (repartition)
2. pit pda and csc (512 pit , vodaAU stock rom, voda au csc)
3. standard stock rom (which worked) but doesnt now.
4. Darkys resurrection rom (failed same spot)
5. odin 1.3 and odin 1.7
6. windows 7 and windows XP
I am annoyed about this, the other times worked fine! Just went i went to send it back for replacement . boom failed.

I tried a more recent ginger rom, failed again act factory.rfs. It's almost like the internal SDcard is broken. This time it flashed modem.bin

Did you remember to turn off the lagfix before the first flash? If the file system is ext4 and you flash RFS then I think that you can have issues.
There is a way to fix it as I was on another thread today where that was the issue but I don't know if the error showed up in Odin for them.
Just another thought...
G
BTW I think in most cases odin will still flash OK even if SD card is cooked. We i9000m owners know way too much about that...
After google search you also might try 1) another odin or heimdall - personally I'd try heimdall at this point if I were you or EZ odin maybe? 2) You likely know not to have kies agent in the tray but hey worth mentioning 3)redownload drivers (which I'll guess that you've done too)

Hi mate ,
Yes i did disable lag fix before flash i kept the orig rfs file system did not convert to EXT4. I might try Heimdall.
After google search you also might try 1) another odin or heimdall - personally I'd try heimdall at this point if I were you or EZ odin maybe?
2) You likely know not to have kies agent in the tray but hey worth mentioning
All taskmanager escaped all the kies stuff, reinstalled kies as well.
3)redownload drivers (which I'll guess that you've done too)
Did this on two machines.

EZ odin fixed it. It booted i just put my providers CSC on it, im pretty sure they wont check the base band and rev number when they get it back.

Glad it worked!

Error when flashing Clockwork Recovery - Screenshots included

I was most recently running Andromeda 3 (Froyo 2.2) when I decided to upgrade to Gingerbread. I intended to go to Cognition 5 v2 (This tread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1127578). Step one was to be on Gingerbread and because I was running Froyo, I followed the link (This thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1127249) to flash Gingerbread stock.
Using odin3 v1.81 and the zImage-root.tar file, I put my phone into download mode, installed rebooted and then added the kernelKF1.tar file. The Cappy rebooted and I was running a rooted stock 2.3.3. This is where the main problem lies. Step two for Cognition was to use Clockworkmod Recovery to flash the new kernel – usually extremely easy but this time I received an error (see below). I believe the error is because I was upgraded to Android System Recovery <3e>, which produced an error anytime I try flashing clockwork recovery mode or using the update.zip method.
The error is “E: failed to verify whole-file signature. E:signature verification failed. Installation aborted”.
I tried to use the “2e recovery” method (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=804226) however, Odein3 v1.81 receives the error:

At this point, I’d be happy just to be able to go back to a Froyo cooked ROM but cannot.
Current:
Firmware version: 2.3.3
Baseband version: I897UCKF1
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-I897UCKF1-CL273832
Build number: GINGERBREAD.UCKF1

Step 2 ... use the Odin to flash the latest Cog Kernel (use the .tar kernel) then Step 3. Don't use the .zip kernel. Don't use Rom Manager.
And last, get a fire extinguisher, ... U should have posted this in Q & A. So u may get flamed.

I've encountered the same problem as you do too. It's due to "not sure why".
But, it's fixed by below:
Download, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1127249
It's Odin 1 Click to STOCK Gingerbread Captivate.
Turn ON the Odin 1st.
Make sure your phone haven't plug into the PC and make sure your phone is OFF.
After that, CLICK and HOLD the VOLUME UP + DOWN BUTTON. Then, plug in the USB that's connected to your PC.
Once you see the Odin recognize your phone, quickly click START! If you got too slow, you'll not able to flash. PLEASE BE FAST.

On a side note Avoid using 1 clicks with bootloaders. With I897 GB bootloaders there isnt need to downgrade back to eclair bootloaders. So look around there are a ton of 1 clicks and firmware packages with out the bootloaders. It only flashes for a split second but might as well reduce the risk even more ^^ best of luck with cog 5

Make sure the connection is good. Make sure, if on desktop, you use a rear usb port. Last, this is something I do not sure if it helps or not, run Odin as Admin.

I was able to unbrick the cell using onc click unbrick method.. Now i can go to download mode by pressing volume up + down and connecting microusb cable..
If i Boot normally then it will show AT&T screen and will get stuck over ther
If i try to boot to recovery ( I had flashed clockworkmod recovery) then It will display AT&Screen for few seconds and goes off and again comes and goes of.. and this continues...
I am not able to use odin to download any image.. I dont know how to proceed now..
Is it possible to flash clockwordmod recovery from download mode ?
Thanks

Since u can get into dowload mode, u have gotta use an Odin or Heimdall Stock One Click or use other Stock Firmware through the regular Odin or Heimdall to get u back.

Hi, sorry for the late reply.. I was able to recover my device using
[AT&T][UCKB2]Heimdall One-Click -Total Stock
Now I am running stock Froyo .. So should i still install without bootloader Gingerbread KK4 image ???
Coz i guess right now i am having Froyo boot-loader if i am not wrong...
And second question.. right now in Froyo there is no option to install unknown sources.. That option is not there in application settings menu...

You probably just flashed froyo boots, so the GB ones would be necessary for GB.
And yes, stock froyo doesn't allow unknown sources.

Please who can help me.
many thanks

Ok, does it matter which stock rom. because i had the lky kernel.
1. I'm downloading now "N7000XXLPY_N7000XENLP1_XEN.zip" on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
is this a good one?

So long as its stock it shouldnt matter, You should try to get the original one your phone came with, Or as close as possible.
I believe the issue is the kernel, You could try to flash another one before going down the route of restoring to stock.
Give speedmod a try, if it fails to boot still, then flash stock GB

Ok, my note came with gb. And was updated by KIES.
And it has the lpy kernel. I believe this one was a unstable version.
In odin i get this:
<ID:0/004> Added!!
<ID:0/004> Odin v.3 engine (ID:4)..
<ID:0/004> File analysis..
<ID:0/004> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/004> Initialzation..
<ID:0/004> Get PIT for mapping..
<ID:0/004> Firmware update start..
<ID:0/004> zImage
and it hangs on zimage. doesn't more.
What now.

how long has it been stuck like that for ? if anything was to fail it would be datafs or factoryfs. Its weird that its sticking on the kernel.
Have you tried to flash stock kernel in ODIN, and then the firmware on top ?

the first time i used odin, downloaded abys kernel as it would be a safe kernel. It hung for 45 min.
the second time, i downloaded the N7000XXLPY_N7000XXLPT_N7000XENLP1_HOME.tar.md5. And it hung.
And if i'm right i cant put that file on de sd card and install from cwm.

close KIES and try again with pc odin.

i'm on a different computer without KIES. I installed samsung usb driver.

Ok,
i downloaded the stockrom.
Went to annother pc.
Started odin up.
Selected the downloaded tar file with the pda button.
did select only reboot & reset time.
hit start.
it went further now. But in the end. odin gave a red flashin fault.
Is it now bricked?

Could be a communication error with the device...
As mentioned Hard brick would usually hang on FactoryFS or Data..
Try rebooting your PC
Use an alternate USB port and retry..

Hi all,
Thanx all. I managed to get a gb xxkk5 running on the note.
I went to another computer.
And used odin.
selected:
- pit file (downloaded from here)
- stockrom (downloaded from sammobile)
removed sd card and sim card.
hit start.
Now he is in configure mode of a new samsung account.
Again, thanks.
