Hi there, im new to this forum and Im kind of a novice to flashing and rooting.
Firstly, my device is a Samsung Galaxy Tab Sprint version.
Secondly, when I bought this tab, I got fed up of the stock software so I decided to flash the rom. I researched allot on how to do this. Then I came across a custom rom called Modaco and flashed my galaxy tab using Clockwork Recovery.
Thirdly, I started to experience a particular problem - the AutoRotation broke. Whenever I rotated my tab portrait in a way that the homescreen, back buttons etc are in the normal position, the screen itself will be upside down making it difficult for me use the tablet conveniently.
Next, I started to develop another problem, i wasn't able to boot into recovery mode so i came accross another method to remove the modaco custom rom to install the stock rom. I used ODIN and download mode. This worked but the whole autorotation situation still persisted. I downloaded a file that would attemp fixing the autorotation problem but didnt work so I tried booting into recovery mode using ADB recovery and Clockwork Recovery but whenever it attempts to get there, it then shows me the samsung logo and remains frozen.
Lastly, I have come to a conclusion that I dont want to be using custom roms and I think it has to do with the Kernal. I want my tablet to be as I just bought it, untouched, not flashed etc.
If anyone can provide me with a solution, then I will be extremely greatful. Thanks

Hey I've been here already but that SW Update doesnt work. It tells me "Cannot open Binary file" can you tell me why?
See post #34 in that thread posted by cdguider.
download the : New File With Odin, Sprint_P100_Samsung_GALAXY_Tab_USB_Drivers, Installation Instructions
read and follow the .txt file that is included step by step and it will work....
I used it but the first time I was in a hurry and did not read the install txt, didn't work. I opened the imstructions and went step by step the next time and it worked no problems..
hope it works out for you.
I thought I knew what I was doing...
I've read and read and read. Thought I had all my ducks in a row. Thought I had everything figured out. But now I have a bricked phone.
I bought my Captivate refurbished from AT&T about 3 months ago. The mfg date is listed as 1011. It came with Froyo. By the third day I had it rooted and Cognition installed. Loved it. But lately it was starting to freeze up, lag, etc. so I decided to install Serendipity.
I followed the directions in the famous How-To thread here.
Odin reported success, but now my phone is stuck in bootloop. None of the tricks for getting it back into download mode worked.
I went to Radio Shack and bought some resisters and made a jig. Now, I can successfully get back to download mode now, so I'm still holding out hope!
I tried Odin again, but got the same result.
My warranty is up in 3 days. Called warranty place today and they won't do anything unless the phone can get to a recovery screen (probably their way of knowing when people have been doing what I've been doing!). Which it won't. I can put it in download mode with the jig. Otherwise, I just get the boot loop.
I have been stressing over this for the last 15 hours. I can't sleep. I've read countless forum posts. Now I find that Odin with Froyo and phones dated from 1008 and above is tricky. How did I miss that before? I've read so much, seen so many threads with people saying "do this" followed by "no don't do that" followed by "that's always worked for me" but it's not working for ME. At this point I'm confused and scared and just hope somebody can point me to instructions for getting a usable phone again.
EDIT: I see I misspelled "Odin" in the title of the thread... tried to edit it but I can't. Sorry.
That guide has not been updated for 2.3 roms. you should follow the instructions that were written by the rom maker, for the rom your trying to flash

Which Cognition were u on ? And which Odin did u use ?
And since u can still get into Download mode u can relax a little, cause that's a good thing.
Lol relax If the phone shows any signs of life, that means it can be fix (usually). Now if the phone after odin doesn't want to turn on THEN your bricked. Since your phone is a newer build and they have been known to not always like jf6 Odin I suggest you try this KB1 odin. Best of luck

Know that now! lol The instructions for Serendipity indicated I didn't have to go back to stock. But I just wasn't sure. So I figured I'd go ahead back to stock just to "be safe." That worked out well!

Which Cognition? Uhm... I don't recall. Whatever was the newest version when I installed it nearly 3 months ago.
I used the Odin One-Click. The filename is I897UCJF6-final-OCD-REV0. When I run it, the title bar says Odin3Execution_v1.0.

Thanks! I'm reading through the threads y'all linked to and I'm sure I'll be back with questions. This whole Odin thing, for one, has me confused. There's at least a dozen different versions available from samfirmware.com, there are different versions of the one-click (like the Designgears 2.2 one? Should I try that one?), then different "full" versions with different instructions ("only use the pda button," "use this pit file", "don't use a pit file", etc...) I'm trying my best to make sense of it all. I was in full-blown panic mode yesterday and trying to read through a dozen different threads at once. Maybe today I can slow down a bit, take a breath, and get this figured out.
The one click I linked should get you to stock. Atleast so you have a funtional phone. There is only one true odin with different versions (1.1 1.82 etc) one clicks r simplified odin that will only flash something specific like 2.1 jf6 or 2.3.3 kf1 to name a few. Samfirmware.com uses the actual odin as it supplies packages for it.

Ok, another sucky thing is I'm on satellite internet and already dangerously close to being FAP'd. I've got to run into town this evening and will try to find some free wifi so I can download those things. Until then... it's just reading threads.
One quick question... that's a one-click you linked to? Posts 33 and 34 say to use regular Odin, not one-click. They provide a link to download regular Odin. Is the I897UCKB1-homeBinary.tar file part of the package I download from the link in the first page? The one-clicks I've downloaded have just been an .exe file.

Because I'm a derp and didn't read it well. Regardless its the package files for stock KB1 use regular ODIN for it. Stick it in PDA. It doesn't have bootloaders so the possibilities of hard bricking are very low xD. My mistake for saying it was 1 click sorry xD
Ok, thanks. I'll post an update tonight after I get back home.
SUCCESS!!!
I now have a fully functional phone running what appears to be stock 2.2 firmware!!
THANK YOU!!!!
However... I can't seem to get into recovery mode. When I hold down all three buttons, it looks like I'm stuck in a boot loop again (ATT World Phone screen flashes). If I release the power button keeping the volume buttons held down, the phone just boots as normal. Is there a fix for this?
I still have all the folders for my old apps on the internal memory card. Can I delete these manually? I'd like it to be back to truly stock settings and start all over. Is that what the "Master Clear" in Odin is for? I didn't see that option in "regular" Odin.
I did get it rooted with Super-One-Click.
Ok, this is where I'm at.
Stock Foyo working phone.
Can't boot into recovery using volume & power buttons.
Rooted with Super One Click.
Installed Superuser.
Installed Rom Manager. At least now I can boot into Recovery Mode through the option in Rom Manager.
Flashed Clockworkmod using Rom Manager. Reported success, but Recovery Mode is still stock version 3e, not 2e. So, still can't install a new custom rom.
I'm a little nervous to try anything else at this point, but really want to be running Serendipity. Serendipity says DO NOT use Rom Manager to install it.
What to do from here? I'm researching, but any pointers would be helpful.
If I install Cognition again from Rom Manager (is that possible/safe at this point?), will that replace the Recovery Mode with 2e? Or is that not related at all?
not related at all.
you should really take the 30 seconds to search for that error you get when you try to reinstall packages from 3e recovery.....it would solve your problems.....
or do it the EASY way and just ODIN a freaking kernel on it that has built in CWM.
flash your rom of choice from CWM

You are in 3e recovery because you are running froyo. Flash to the stock 2.1 eclair and that will get you back to 2e. There are other ways but thats the most basic I feel.

There are more builds of 2.1 other than jf6...
Op look at the bottom of the first post of the odin one click thread by design gears there are 2 stock firmware packages the first one is an eclair build use the full version of odin (not one click) flash that and you're good.
Or search for the work around of 3e recovery, look in the sticky roll up at the to of the general section...it'll say "e: signature verification error"

Yes, I tend to rely to heavily on the search feature and overlook sticky threads. Thanks for the reminder.
The "Fixing 3e" methods listed in this thread don't seem to be working for me. First method (the script) gives me an error. Tried with Win 7 64bit, and 32bit (two different computers). Yes, phone drivers were installed. Second method (manual copying of the file) doesn't work. When using Terminal Emulator to execute the command I get the message "Operation not permitted." When using ES File Explorer with Mount file System as writable checked in the settings, I get no errors or complaints... but nothing has changed when I boot into recovery.
Still working on it. Thanks for the pointers.
why dont you try one of the ODIN KERNELS that will add CWM for you? why are you wasting your time running in circles for nothing?
put phone in download mode
open ODIN, add the kernel into the PDA slot
connect phone
flash kernel
now you have CWM and can flash any 2.2 rom you want

After softbricking (is that the right term?) my phone with Odin, it makes me a little nervous. (Of course, I also recovered my phone with Odin, so maybe I shouldn't be nervous...).
This running around in circles...? We'll call it "education"!
Hi, everybody. I have a big problem with my Captivate I897. I bought it on ebay and it appears to be bricked. Just AT&T logo loop.
I have tried a lot of stuf - flashing with odin one click, installing different roms with odin, removing all data in recovery mode. Nothing helps.
Messages that have experienced:
After flashing to stock with odin-one-click: Data wipe failed
After installing custom rom (I897UCJI6-OCD-REV02-Low-designgears_1_.exe): Can't mount SDCARD: copy default media content failed
Removing data in recovery mode completes without errors but nothing changes.
This phone is locked to AT&T, maybe this is the trouble.
I can go to Download mode and recovery mode.
Maybe something wrong with internal sd card. Maybe i can do some hard format or something like that.
Could anybody help?
Thanks
Guys, anybody? i'll appreciate any hints. Please.
I would suggest trying to flash to stock with a non-One-Click Odin version. It's possible that the One-click version doesn't have the right instruction set to get around whatever is causing the issue on the phone (or maybe it just doesn't like the phone).
You could also try this Heimdall-based One-Click to get back to stock. It's possible that ODIN might be incompatible with your current setup.
If that still doesn't work, and you're not averse to trying your hand at soldering, you could give the Unbrickable Mod a try and see if you can go from there.
If you have any questions along the way, just post back here.
I would try flashing I897UCJF6_final_OCD_REV0.zip . That one works great for me every time and it is a one click. You'll find it in DG's stock rom thread in the development section.
I've helped a few people out with their Cappy's and I've noticed that some of the newer ones (model number 1010 and above) don't take too kindly to stock 2.1. You might want to check that. It's written behind the battery.
Have you tried i897UCKB1 (2.2) or maybe even i897UCKH3 (2.3.4)?
Thank all of you for advice. I will try out all that you advised me to.
I found model number it is 1007.
Cheers.
Guys, I'm new to the site but i have read nearly every xda forum post going for getting the Galaxy Tab P1000 with an ICS rom on it and im out now and cant find a thread relating to what i want to ask.
I have tried everything and even though it will install the tab simply refuses to boot, either get the black screen or stuck on the samsung logo, or boots then immediately reboots, ive tried everything from ODIN gingerbread roms to flashing cyna's and others custom ICS roms using their described methods, I can easily unbrick it now too! . ive tried different SD cards in different formats and buildign in the different zImage kernels to match my p1000.. what i cant seem to find is anyone that has successfully got a tab from Vodafone UK on ICS so any help on this would be beyond appreciative .
please!
Rich.
Quick question, for starters, you sure you have a P1000 and not some of the other ones (P1000N, P1000L...)?
If you do, try to explain the methods step by step you've been using for flashing ROMS.
When I started, I also bricked my Tab a few times before I got it right lol
(I actually bricked my tab flashing CM9 update just 10mins ago XD it's now booting again lol)
Hi Stilm, it says it is a P1000 on the back and on the box, no mention at all of an N or L as i noticed you need different kernels/zImage's for those too so can only presume its definitely just a p1000, i think in fact i did try one just to rule it out. it just seems weird that ive not seen a working UK Voda unit on anything but 2.2 but surely its only the rom thats different not the actual hardware.
first i tried cynagenmods instructions to get his CM9 on it including rooting it with oneclickroot to gain SU access, copy zip to SD Card and could boot to cynas menu to select the zip off the SD but, would say successful then brick it or would fail after a bit way through and say cant mount sd.
i tried a few other methods from other sites too but they all seem largely the same, i also tried renaming the cm9 file name to update.zip and using the update function on the original menu but this still bricked it lol.
About CM9, if it doesn't boot after flashing the ROM, flash a kernel (zImage).
the zImage is built in to the rom though, is it possible to flash just the zimage say through odin?.. because after it fails to boot the only way to get anything on it seems to be through odin or at best through the standard built in recovery?
You can use Heimdall, or tar it and use Odin. Or you can download a nightly.
would it recognise it if i tar it though i thought it had to be in a certain layout/format not just a tar container? i will give nightly a go too!
can anyone tell me why it always says CANT MOUNT /SDCARD/filename.zip installation aborted.?

Hey, froyo and ics are totally different system. It is hard enough to flash a froyo to gingerbread without going through some problems. From my experience flashing gingerbread on froyo, I had to get a new pit file flashed together with the rom using Odin, with repartition checked. Even after that I would get error msgs like E:failed to mount /data or /system etc. I had to push new dbdata.rfs to get it working right.
any luck with getting ICS on though? so many have and its doing my head in now... given im an IT Pro too youd think itd be done by now lol. youre right though about GB thats why im thinking if its down to the actual vendor supplied units, ive not heard yet if other UK Vodafone users have had any success or indeed failure?
I attempted to root my SGS (which had stock Gingerbread Value 2.3.6) using a guide on the Snappyguides blogspot page (the system won't let me, as a newbie, post the URL).
Odin did its thing and then the Samsung Galaxy screen came up (just the white lettering, not the multicoloured animated S) and then... nothing. It just stayed like that for about five seconds, then the white Samsung Galaxy S came up again, then the blank screen ad infinitum.
I can access the download screen and I can access the recovery screen (which does seem to indicate that ClockworkMod v2.5.1.0 has been installed). The trouble is that none of the options seem to do anything.
I have tried searching the forum for similar problems and have read the sticky. The only answers I seem to have been able to find so far suggest flashing a new Rom.
Before I go this far, is flashing a new Rom really necessary in this instance? I have never done this procedure before, so I'm wary of messing things up even further. But obviously if the phone is past the point of no return as far as the stock Rom is concerned, then that'll be what I have to do.
I'd appreciate some advice before doing anything else to my phone though.
I now seem to be able to get the recovery menu options to respond, so maybe all is not lost. Have set it to root and it's currently converting to EXT4 and is about halfway through that.
I'm hoping once that's done, it'll be bootable.
If not, what do I need to do to make the SGS boot again? Is there any way of getting back to stock or can I only flash a stock rom back on?
Nope, still not booting. It just keeps going to the Samsung I9000 white lettering, stays there for five seconds, goes blank for five seconds, then the white lettering goes back and on, off like that forever.
So... anyone willing to help?

Sorry for being a n00b but I can't find anything in there that helps me. All I see is a lot of jargon about various roms, kernels and something called Voodoo.
I had a working phone with Gingerbread 2.3.6 Value. I added Clockworkmod via Odin. Now I can't get the phone to boot beyond the splash screen. It doesn't even get as far as the animated S, all I get is the splash screen going on and off every few seconds.
All I want is to get my phone working again, I really couldn't care less about custom roms etc.
If anyone can help this poor n00b, I'd be very grateful!
Incidentally, I've downloaded what I understand to be the factory rom for JW4 from sammobile.com - this is a 171MB zip file with just two files inside - a tar file called JW4_JW5_JW4 and a dll file called SS_DL.dll. I'm not really sure what to do with these to restore my phone via Odin. This is the kind of thing I need help with - the threads I've read so far don't make much sense to a poor confused n00b I'm afraid.

OK, thanks for that. I'm supposed to be asleep right now, so I'll come back to this later but thanks for helping.
But just to clarify for now - this will restore the phone to a working version of 2.3.3 and from there I can get back to the latest stock rom (2.3.6) via Kies, yes? I need to get into Kies anyway to restore my contacts from backups (as I haven't yet seen a way of restoring the backups except via Kies).
Thanks once again.

Well, I did get it working again in the end by using a factory rom. Thanks for your help anyway, W1nst0n.
I do intend to attempt to root it again but this time I intend to do it properly.
Any suggestions on what may have caused the boot problem I had? Perhaps using a version of ClockworkMod that was incompatible with 2.3.6 Value?

Check in about phone for the kernel version. for example mine is 2.6.35.7-I9000TDVJV6-CL530973
The important part is the bold text.
search the link that i posted earlier for a odin version and flash as PDA
Good luck
