What one click are you referring to? If you are talking about odin one click, the only thing you should be using that for is going back to stock before flashing a rom. If a rom is flashable through clockwork than you would just put it on your internal sd card and follow the instructions for flashing through Rom Manager. If it is a rom that is supposed to be flashed with odin you would have to open up the zip file you downloaded and enter the appropriate files into odin.

WELL **** I flashed a rom now im stuck on congnition rom and i cant flash another one can u help
You need to be more descriptive if you want people to figure out a solution to your specific problem. Your post amounts to "I flashed a rom, I'm having problems, vague reference to rom manager, help guys".
Here's what we need:
1. What version of Android are you trying to flash?
2. What version are you currently running?
3. What modifications have you done?
4. What is the specific error you are getting?
5. What is the EXACT process you are using to try to flash the new rom?
READ READ READ READ READ, THEN READ SOME MORE!
you obviously have not read enough. there are 2 versions of ODIN we use for our phones:
One click ODIN which is simply a prepackaged version of the regular ODIN configured with the appropriate files that ODIN needs to flash our phones with it....they are packaged up by a developer named DesignGears. not every rom is going to have a one click odin....
there is also regular ODIN which requires you to have the appropriate files associated with your rom (kernel, pit file, modem, csc file, and rom), sometimes devs will package as much of that as possible into one or 2 files to flash in ODIN
you need to spend some time learning how to use these or just use the one click and go back to stock, then leave your phone alone. seriously, freaking out on a forum is not the right way to go about getting help for your phone.
calm down and give up the info that modest_mandroid has requested. none of us magically know what the heck you are talking about when you spout out random things like help, i flashed something and now i cant do anything else
Odin flash any Odin file from your phone!
The XDA god chainfire put this app together, and I helped him add the Captivate to the list of supported devices yesterday!
flash a whole, or part of: .tar, .tar.md5, modem, even flash the files from inside a ONE CLICK odin, FROM YOUR PHONE!

No, you'll still need to use a computer-based Odin/Heimdall to flash bootloaders.
(That's what the IBL/PBL items are that are greyed out in the application.)

well i have tried this it's flashing to jf6 using cezar flash like a breeze but problem flashing to jf6 the market cant find the mobile odin. and even you dl it on sd card it wont let you install on jf6 stock so i have tried installing the stock leak of kk4 while i was on a i9000 base rom now if you purchase this on market it allows you to automaticaly download the kernel needed to flash now problem here is if your build prop is not tweak to samsung-sgh-i897 build prop it will download the i9000 base kernel which will mess up your flashing and end up on a bootloop going to stock kk4 so still kinda fresh its a go and miss some times it work sometimes end a bootloop this also it does not flash the bootloader from the stock rom so i suggest before you go to stock gb rom flash a captivate base gb loader but got to admit chainfire is really a beast to make an odin on a phone so purchase the app to support him

GO READ THE FRIGGIN THREAD!
Good work Devs
Do you have a direct link or mirror for v1.20? Tried the version on the market and still getting not compatible.
link in the first post, links to his thread, and it has links to the app. also I think it checks compatibility by reading the build.prop, what's wrong are you running and have you messed with your build.prop
Running MIUI. No, not edited build.prop.
well miui is probably the answer, might want to let the Dev know so he can fix that, if possible.
Ok, will do. Thanks
Not compatible with teamhacksung ICS build 6 either.

team hacksung's ICS port uses the CM7 partitioning table, and Mobile odin doesnt support re-partitioning. so ya. of course it dont and wont ever work.
Hello all,
During my travels in China, I picked up a GT-I9228G galaxy note.
Back in the UK now, and hoping I could change the rom to the english varient of GT-N7000? I am assuming GT-I9228G and GT-N7000 is the same device, just different regional roms(?).
The boot screen is chinese. It has chinese apps on it which I cant remove and no app store amongst other things. Ideally, would like to make the phone all english. Is this possible?
Just a bit of background on me:
I used to own a HTC PDA which I swap roms from developers here and very familair with jail breaking on apple products. Andriod however is new to me. I am a quick learner, so any pointers would be great please guys/gals.

I guess you could... Lots of other people bought their galaxy note from Hong Kong and also from china and they all changed their ROM for a same reason of yours.
Does not the 9220 using a snapdragons and not exynos? I not sure but I thing I have read it somewhere so carefully before flashing.

So, potentially I could just change to the one below?
N7000XXKKA ## 2.3.6 2011 November N7000CPWKK3 United Kingdom (Carphone Warehouse) Download
The box says 1.4 + <insert chinese characters here>
From wiki -A dual-core 1.4Ghz Exynos processor or a 1.5 Ghz Snapdragon S3 processor (AT&T, SK Telecom, KT, LG U+)
So my guess is Exynos. Anyway to double check?
ok, so I have downloaded the above rom and Odin3 v1.83 from sammobile.
I have opened Odin3 and specified the PIT file (Q1_20110914_16GB)
I have also ticket re-partition, auto reboot and F.reset timer.
I have loaded the rom under PDA (N7000XXKKA_N7000CPWKK3_N7000XXKK5_HOME.tar), everything else is unticked.
I have the phone in download mode ready.
I just need to know if the above is ok or am I missing anything before I click START and brick my phone?
Thanks,
Chris.
well I tried anyway.
That didnt work.
Now the phone says "software update fail"
I can still get into download mode, buts thats about it.
tried with and without the PIT file.
Anyone know what I should do now please?
I'd say you'll have to find a rom for that model
maybe http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&t=1&o=1&m=GT-I9220&r=2#regiona
You might have bricked your phone by checking repartition in odin. You should not have. Now you probably need to find a pit file for your model.

If you could enter download mode then try these steps
1. Open Odin and flash Pit file only and Re-partition ticked. (do not attach any ROM)
2. After this again flash ROM without pit file and re-partition un-ticked
This should work.

The first part seemed to work ok, so then went onto flashing again without the PIT file. Failed
Back to square one (software update fail message).
Going to try the original ROM, but takes about 6 hours to download from china!.
Ideally, really dont want to use the original ROM though! I'm guessing the original ROM isnt going to work now anyway since ODIN3 has re-partitioned the device(?).

Any other suggestions before I head home from work and play later?
Oh, I forgot to mention. I read somewhere (forgot where) that I should root the device prior to changing the ROM. Is that true? If so, I dont think thats something I can do in current state

you can try flashing kernel with CWM in PC Odin, then flash any Custom ROM using CWM Recovery.

CWM is clockworkmod right? Dont I need a rooted phone in order to install it?
Or do I follow something like this? http://whatareandroidphones.net/root-samsung-galaxy-note.html
Yes... CWM recovery doesn't need root.
hello,
Didnt have the time to work out CWM, but was given a link to another rom which had three files for ODIN3 (http://hotfile.com/dl/149302861/1896440/N7000XXLA6_N7000XEULA1_XEU.rar.html).
So, loaded the above and the phone is back in action on a N7000 rom. Wohoo. Just glad it's working again more then anything else lol!
This rom is prerooted apparently too. know idea what I should be able to do now. What does one usually do when they have a rooted device?

Thread accidentaly revived :S
Hey fellas
So after dwelling on the decision to upgrade from GB to something higher (ICS), I have decided to go for it.
Only except now that I'm trying to do it, it all seems to complicated.
Im using :
Model Number: GT-I9000
Firmware Version: 2.3.3
Baseband Version: I9000SRJV1
Kernal Version: [email protected] #2
Buid Number: GINGERBREAD.XWJVN
I've tried rooting via this one-click thing: z4root.1.3.0
But everytime I open it on my phone it says: 'There is a problem parsing the package'
So I have researched it, and apparently this does not work with XWJVN P.S. (Have no idea what that code means)
But I need to root first, which, is the hard part; hence needing some guidance on how to root this phone
Thankyou very much!
Hey there,
Before I begin, the five letter code, XWJVN is like the identification for the firmware you're using.
So I'll make this brief and hopefully simple enough to understand:
1.) Download a stock firmware from http://www.sammobile.com under the "Firmware" section (in the search bar under Firmware just type in I9000 and a whole list should come up). For simplicity of rooting, find XXJW4 (its dead easy to root).
2.) In the I9000 development section somewhere there's a thread about something called CF-Root. Scroll down the thread to the second to last post. There should be a link for XXJW4 CF-Root. Download it.
3.) Also download a version of Odin from these forums somewhere
3) Unzip both the stock 2.3.6 you downloaded and CF-Root.
4.) Make sure the phone has at least 60% battery or so (to be on the safe side). Turn the phone off, and put it into Download mode by holding down Volume Down, Home and Power simultaneously.
5.) Open Odin on your PC. Connect your phone to the computer via USB cable.
6.) Check that the phone has successfully connected (a yellow box saying ID:COM and a number should appear).
7.) Select PDA in Odin and navigate to the stock rom your downloaded (it should be in a .tar file). Select it and DON'T TOUCH ANYTHING ELSE. Press Start.
8.) Wait for it to flash in. Let 2.3.6 boot up.
9.) Repeat steps 4 to 7, but this time navigate to the CF-Root file (again, .tar). Again, don;t touch anything else except Start. Wait for it to finish.
And done! You should be rooted, ready to flash any ICS rom.

Yup.
The firmwares are coded by region as well, so XXJW4 is localised for the UK.
As for CF-Root, give me a moment to find the thread again.
EDIT: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108

The CF-Root you're looking for is on the second to last post on the first page, it says "XXJW4 2.3.6" build or something like that.

Now if I feel that I really don't like the ROM I have flashed, and would much rather revert back to GB. Could I just hook my phone back up to odin, and redo the steps you have laid out for me above? (i.e using the same thing I downloaded when I was flashing)

Which ROM do you use, dude? And what is what you dislike?
Usually, yes, reverting should work fine by using again Odin 1.82 and flashing again the ROM you liked more. GB roms can be easily rooted by Semaphore kernel, which features CWM and if I remember well even root, all-in. Just find the version compatible with your ROM.
Did you try CM10.2? Works great for me.

Yeah man, same steps, except don't flash CF-Root, and instead flash a file called dbsdata.rfs.tar (can be downloaded somewhere in these forums).
Really, after flashing the rom, all you have to do:
1.) The phone will display errors in red in the stock recovery saying it can't mount data, etc etc. Don't worry about it, its normal. Just take out the battery and put it back in.
2.) Get into Download mode, connect to the computer, open Odin. Same stuff as usual.
3.) Select PDA again and then navigate to dbsdata.rfs.tar and select it.

I was just under the impression that perhaps ICS would conserve more battery, not sure if it is?
The lock screen/unlock bit is kinda annoying with the buzz
The apps for Music are ugly and Gallery can't open GIFs, as opposed to the original ones I was using on GB.
What's CM10.2 like?
@Soryuu
I remember when I was flashing ICS I had to download gapps, do I need to do the same, or will those files get me through fine?

ICS does conserve more battery, its true. JB has hardware acceleration which does make things either super smooth or pretty laggy, because it does take a hell of a toll on the processor.
Still, CM10.2 is a major improvement over some of the 4.2.2 roms I've tried. Its quite smooth, and I'd say worth a shot. GPS is (reportedly) better, so is battery (it is, at least on the builds I've tried), things are much smoother. There are a few things that need to be fixed though, but for the most part its brilliant.
And if you're flashing ICS only to get to Jelly Bean, you don't need gapps, you can just go straight ahead. You only need gapps if you plan on using ICS as a daily driver.

For battery life people write different experiences....my own was:
ICS4.0x/cm9.1 good
JB4.2x/cm10.1x not so good
JB4.3/cm10.2 very good
I never used buzz, and of course it is matter of own taste
I love CM10.2,the ROM is still in development (it is a mirracle that developer pawitp still works on menawhile "old" i9000 and brings us android 4.3 where Samsung gave up with 2.3.6) I use nightly 20130828 and it works perfect on my i9000. Some other people report different bugs, though. So if you prefer to use only stable ROMs, wait until it gets at least RC

Did ROM backup, TiBu backup, EFS, APN, Contacts etc
Installed/Flashed:
ROM X-Bean1.1 base.zip
gapps-jb-2012101-signed.zip
Semaphore_jb_2.0.3c.zip
landscape_fix.zip
Phone booted up fine initially, would always revert to landscape view, back button was now the home button.
Could not find any of my backups. "UI" kept crapping out; "Unfortunately UI is not responding" Think that's what it said!
Had to click OK and it was back until i touched anything and kept happening...
Did Advanced Restore -> CWM Recovery of: System, Data, Cache, ext/sd
Phone rebooted.... Stuck on AT&T logo screen, charging pinwheel shows but doesn't move.
Cannot get into recovery.. managed to get into "dowload mode"
tried i897UCJF6-final-OCD-REVO.zip loaded on computer, phone connected in download mode,
loaded PIT file only as the zip had no PAD file....... NO SUCCESS
If I proceeded in a NOOB fashion, it's because I am so I'll take my licks Lol
Any help would be appreciated!
Figured it best to just get back to stock 2.2, maybe even earlier since I wouldn't have the 3e recovery
problem not being able to install from OTHER sources. Then TRY again after brushing up!!!!!!!!

Did you flash a I9000 ROM? If so, you need the I9000 bootloaders.
Also to downgrade android version, you have to use Odin (i suggest kk4 without bootloaders if you already have the gb ones, which can be found in the stickies).
Make sure you follow the full instructions next time to avoid issues like that.

Ahhh, fello Canadian i see!
You may be correct thinking i have I9000 "JB"? bootloaders!, in the original
thread : Aceofspades replied to a member question stating: "Port means that this
rom is originally made for i9000 and made it to work for captivate."
Should I assume I've flashed an I9000 Rom? and now have JB bootloader?
Thinking back, I did not wipe before going back and using recovery! Not sure that was the problem
but it was on reboot after restoring CWM/system. data. cache etc that the phone rebooted and ended up
in a continual cycling of the ATT logo screen!
Big question now is how do I do to remedy my situation!!
NOTE...I have made a JIG and can get into "download Mode" now
From this point on I'll document my every move in order to be able to provide
the exact procedure I went through... might be more helpful !!
I know I know... NOOB! Lol
PS, is an alternative to use Kies Mini and update to Gingerbread?

First thing: don't use kies at all!
There are no JB bootloaders for the cappy, just eclair, froyo and GB. If the ROM is a port, you'll most likely have to flash the I9000 gb bootloaders but I'd suggest finding another ROM to start with (like CM). Playing with bootloaders is the only thing that will make your phone a paper weight if something goes wrong.
Also, bootloaders aren't included in roms for safety measures. That being said, you can run ICS and JB roms just fine with the GB bootloaders.
As for what comes next. Perhaps use Odin to flash stock kk4 without bootloaders, from there flash corn kernel (once again with Odin) and give CM a whirl following their full flashing instructions. (Which can be found both in their thread and website)

Understood... NO KIES
Sorry but a little confused still...
Do I Odin flash KK4 w/o bootloaders first -> flash corn kernal with Odin -> then flash a CM ROM using their procedure?
Where in the sequence is "flash I9000 bootloaders?
* No luck finding Odin w/o bootloaders yet, outdated download sites. Will search through xda again.
Noted! "There are no JB bootloaders for the cappy, just eclair, froyo and GB." (I was originally ATT captivate on FROYO 2.2)

I might be a little hazy on the order of your suggestions so thanks for the patience!
GREATLY APPRECIATING YOUR EFFORTS!!

For now, forget about the I9000 bootloaders.
Here's KK4: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18370912&postcount=3
During your flashing, did you ever flash the GB bootloaders? If not, get the version with bootloaders and make the the flashing isnt't interrupted.
And yeah, from there you got it right, corn kernel; and follow their full flashing instructions.

* I haven't knowingly flashed GB bootloaders.
* I've been all over the link you provided... no working downloads.
Hmmm, I did try "Odin" a couple of times to get the GingerBread update...After doing that my phone now
boots to the AT&T logo, goes black for a sec and a screen like a bad tv signal comes up! Also, the phone
is now charging and showing the big battery icon! I seem to recall reading somewhere that if that happens
it may be wrong bootloaders? Can't remember exactly what it said but am I correct thinking it was one of
your own replies to another member?
Anyway, done for the night Grrrr
Thanks so much!
Here is a post with a pic about the screen u r seeing. Pixelated screen means u don't have the GB bootloaders... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=33227557&postcount=2
And i am currently in the process of uploading my Odin and Heimdall Stock KK4 One Clicks. Gonna be using MediaFire. Will post when all uploads are done and new links attached to my post #3 in the Stock Rom stickied thread in the Development forum...
Fixin to crash for the nite. But will get it done asap.

Appreciate you taking the time to reply! The images you displayed are exactly what I am seeing..
Links aren't good forever, i realize that just hard to believe I hadn't found them ANYWHERE yet! Lol
PS ************
* Have since got GB Bootloaders and added thru Odin3 v1.70.. PDA.tar.md5
* Now able to get into recovery mode by 3-button, shows 3e recovery, have ability to install from sdcard,
wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition.
* I have an "update.zip" on there but can't remember what it's for so I didn't do it...
but still no UI coming up, just the AT&T logo which cycles ON/OFF
Am I still in the same boat... needing KK4 Odin flash, after doing that will i be able to copy
a KK4 ROM zip to my phone thru PC and flash from the phone?

KK4 is a one click Odin.
From there, you'll have to use Odin 1.85 or 1.87 to flash Corn kernel to be able to flash your way up to CM.

Hey there!
* 4-2ndtwin chimed in and said he would post when he uploaded them.
Been looking in the meantime.
* I have both Odin versions, now understand that I can use Odin to flash any file I choose, such as the Corn kernal, not just files it may come with.
* I downloaded a "Stocki897uckk4-zImage.tar, unzipping shows "zImage" file but I
haven't touched it.
Just hanging in for a working link for the Odin KK4 One-Click I guess...
Question!!!
For clarification..Odin KK4 One-Click is just bootloaders, kernal and maybe modem, right? It's not going to give me a working ROM...OR, is it ALSO an alternative way to flash a ROM when I can't add a ROM zip to my phone thru my PC to flash?
Lol... I'll get a handle on this, more of a visual type
As usual, appreciate the help!

Still browsing ROMS...
Should I be bothered rooting yet? Not sure if I'll just have to do it again after a ROM switch?
Any suggestions for a root utility?

I suggest you start with CM.
As for rooting, you can get it directly on the store now (was recently made legal). I believe it's by chainfire. But do you need it atm?
Also, all custom roms come pre-rooted.
