[Q] Odin flash stuck at MIBIB [SOLVED]

Hi,
Tried to flash a Galaxy Ace to the latest Stock ROM with odin. It did not get any further in odin than MIBIB..
Now it is not booting to OS anymore. Still needs to flash. Installed version was 2.3.3
What did I try:
- odin 4.38 and also higher odin version
- different stock roms (samfirmware.com)
- no sd card
- remove battery for 10 secs
- different PC, different OS
- No KIES, With Kies
- Different USB Cable
With google I found similar problems. But no solution.
Anybody with a possible solution?
Thanks

Use another stock rom and make sure you have the correct Cooper file in ODIN

Downloaded several cooper ops files. All the same!?
EDIT: found the problem: I renamed the ops file. Then odin just says (android). It must be named cooper_v1.0.ops
(at least with ODIN 4.42)
What is the correct one then?
Code:
0,mibib
1,qcsbl
2,oemsbl
3,amss
4,arm11boot
5,boot
6,recovery
7,system
8,data
9,csc
10,
Using other computer again. Now ODIN recognises my model (see picture). That is better.
Thanks

[Q] need (my files) app on captivate

does anyone know if there is a apk file or something so i could flash the my files app on my cappy that usually come on the cappy with the official firmwares? i just need some kind of file to do that because i dont like astro and es file manager, etc. even a link to somewere where this has been done before would help, thanks.

I don't have an answer for you, just a recommended alternative in case you cannot find My Files.
I put Dual File Manager on every rom I try.

View attachment MyFiles.apk
here is
I promise nothing

ok mabye not, i meant a .tar file so i can flash with odin3

sorry about that

Why did you just open a new thread for that???
Take this apk and follow any of the ways i described in that thread....and in the future DON'T OPEN NEW THREADS FORE THE SAME THING!

sorry, then how do i do that with the apk file? like how do i make that a tar file or something to flash it with odin

Check your other thread...i listed 3 options.

Don’t give me a fish, teach me how to fish.

I would like to help you fishing but I'M NOT RESPOSIBLE IF YOU ENDED BY CACHING A SHARK
I had downloaded a rom with removed bootloader from annson08 thread, by opening the .tar archive i noticed that he did just removed the arm11boot file from the package nothing else.
so maybe removing this file from your ROM and flashing it like usual will do the trick

Unpack rom..search bootanimation.zip.....replace with any other of ur choice

i know that he just removed arm11boot but when i did that with many method i didn't succed to add it to "odin multi downloader" it crashs every time when i add the new file without bootloader i think that is not just unpack,remove and repack there is something special to make odin fish a fish not a shark

He wrote it in his thread...
I believe the method requires linux (/cygwin)...

yeah i used cygwin too but i failed to make the output file work on odin!!!
i used this method from yagya:
Code:
cd firmware_directory
// Goes inside firmware directory
tar -cf firmware_name.tar amss mibib oemsbl qcsbl boot.img recovery.img system.rfs csc.rfs
// This will create a tar_file named firmware_name.tar containing all the files mentioned afterwards. You'll need to check if all files except arm11boot are included or not and add (or remove) to or from above list.
md5sum firmware_name.tar >> firmware_name.tar
// Checks md5sum of the tar file.
mv firmware_name.tar >> firmware_name.tar.md5
// Renames the firmware file. The outcome of this is your flashable zip file.
[optional] gzip firmware_name.tar.md5
//zips the firmware_name.tar.md5 file as gz format. It is easier while sharing the file since it reduces the file size by almost 50 %.

you did everything correct but the problem of Odin crashing is its a md5 file then you remove the arm11boot md5 of file changes which makes the Odin crash
steps to correct it:-
1. extract everything from package
2. delete arm11boot
3. then download a software which can create a tar package
4. with that software create an empty tar package
5. put all the files in that tar package
then then you are ready to flash

Dowload CWM from unbrick tutorial
On dev section and try again.
Verify zip, make sure if the file isnt corrupted. If is the right zip.
And, 'install zip from sd card' not :'install update.zip' if have both options.

Split it with Split2FUS take the pda rename it from tar.md5 to tar open it with wirar extract system.img you can open it with DiskInternals Linux reader.
Lockscreens are in android.policy.odex or android.policy.jar but you need to deodox it.
Why don't you just take the file android.policy.jar from a custom rom ? you can then extract it with backsmali.jar with the command java -jar baksmali.jar android.policy.jar -o nameofthefolder .

[Q] Trying to root and I'm stck, Odin can't see the .tar.md5 file

Hi guys, I'm trying to root by following this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2147852&highlight=root
So I downloaded everything from the links given there (Odin 3.04 and the cmw file. However when I'm on step 9
9- press the PDA button and select the unziped file from step (1)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I click on PDA and the cmw file doesn't show in the location I left it. I tried moving it to desktop but doesn't work either. Any ideas please?
Thanks a lot

The CWM file's extension is .img, isn't it?

Did you do unzip
Sent from my GT-I8190 using xda app-developers app

No, I hadn't, see here I'm confused. Step 1 says unzip, but Step 9 says select unzipped file, so which should it be?
To decide, I did a little research and found out Odin should open .tar and .tar.md5 files directly, so I figured it wasn't necessary to unzip.
Anyway it doesn't find it either way, I just tried unzipping but I can't find the .img file with Odin either =/ What am I doing wrong?

.rsrc folder
One more thing, when I try to open the Downloads folder where I left the .tar file, all I can see through Odin is this .rsrc folder that apears to be empty.

Try to download it again
And unzip it

Solved!
Thank you both, I figured it out! I know it's dumb...but I didn't realize you had to run everything in Administrator mode (apparently). I tried this and it worked, it seems I was running Odin as Admin but in a non-Admin account and the files were hidden or something...
Anyway, sorry to bother you with my dumb question, but I hope this can help another dumb noob like me!
I'm ridiculously happy with my brand new CM 11 now, time to play with it!
