I flashed some wrong files on to my SGS, the phone wouldn't boot up, and worst off all I couldn't deactivate the OCLagFix.
I now only have acces to the Download mode, please help me to fix this problem!
I would like to know if I could go ahead and flash a ROM without the update.zip method, because I don't have acces to the internal SD card.
Thanx in advance!

Do you have a link to JP7? It's what I'm running now but in case something goes wrong at least I can re-flash. Thank you so much!
I always download my roms from samfirmware, have a look on there.
Hello,
I just bought and received a tmobile 16 gb tab today off of ebay. Im not new to android. I have a droid pro and tmobile g2x. Both have cwm and able to replace factory recovery with cwm.
The tab is already rooted via superoneclick, chainfire's patch been applied.
I tried searching for cwm permanent for the tab but seem to not find a clear cut process to get a cwm recovery. Can anyone please point me in the right direction. My tab is currently running 2.2 foyo. I already know since the tab has different version and is available for many carriers, that roms are very different

If you have a gsm version, you can flash the overcome rom, it has cwm built in. Look at the overcome site or thread for instruction.
Yeah I just read through it.
So I can go ahead and load overcome via odin? Wheres stock 2.2 firmware just incase it soft bricks?
Its a gsm tab but I only use it over wifi
And should download jupiter nowipe or wipe version?

thank you very much, im downloading the stock safe v5 gingerbread from their site
what happens if i want to flash the cm7 testing rom or another rom in the forum? would cwm disappear?
or is it in essence perm. cwm even if i switch roms
so i followed instructions to the T and odin tool saying fail so i guess it has been bricked
im re-trying again
do i select re-partition?? because odin tool is doing nothing after retrying
have you checked your bootloader as tell in the tutorial ?
It fails at which step ? Is your bootloader locked or unlocked ? Did you put it in download mode ?
Thanks for the concerns, i ended up fixing the issue
Let it die and tested to see if it even charged when i connected it to power outlet. With stroke of luck, got it back to dl mode and now running overcome
If i flash a different rom will overcome kernel will still be on my tab? So i can keep cmw on it?
Sent from Galaxy Tab 7" W/ Overcome Rom
If you flash via cwm, you will still have cwm.
Cool thanks. So it will keep the kernel unless I flash a new one via odin
Ima try flash cm7 build via cwm
Sent from Galaxy Tab 7" W/ Overcome Rom
Beware not all zip files are flashable with cwm. If it's not specified, don't do it or you will brick your tab.

If you are going to try cm7 its best to flash stock safe gingerbread again, and flash cm7 through hiedmal rather than cwm

Okay I posted this thread because I didn't want to hijack someone elses anymore than I did.
I recently got a Samsung GT-I9000, I believe it's the international though I can't be 100% sure. I tried doing a few simple ROMS like CM7-9, Devil, Dmore, etc but nothing seems to work. I can use Odin and Heimdall just fine, but I can't seem to use adb to actually get into my device. I can get into download mode and CWM Recovery, but I can't seem to get any flashes to go through, any help?
I've managed to get it past the GT-I9000 stage and it goes into an android breaking out of concrete bootimage, but then it just loops. Also The GT-I9000 picture is perfect, but the bootimage color is all skewed, does this mean anything?

I am not sure what you are doing wrong. You need to install the correct kernal first and then the ROM. You may want to watch YouTube video of GT-I9000 rooting and flashing the ROM step by step video.

This seems to be a wrong kernal. Or try to take out the battery for a minute or so, then put it back and turn on the phone, this should help. If not check the kernal requirements and re install the ROM.

I just flashed a good stock kernal, and it's rebooted. It has the normal Galaxy S Bootimage and it's playing the music (first sound I've had from it) but never makes it past that, it waits there for about a minute and then reboots. I can get into the recovery (Android system recovery <3e>) but it's not CWM. When in recovery it says
-- Appling Multi-CSC...

Go to "ramad" thread and a rom from there and flash it with Odin (in PDA only)
that will restore your Phone or download "darky 10.1 resurrection rom" also flashed with Odin.
If u don't know how to flash with Odin then search Google writing "flash with Odin" there are utube video guides

Ramad's thread is where I got the ROM + Kernal + Pit. I tried searching for darky's rom, I can find the rom but no kernal. Any luck? All of the links are outdated
After I do the ROM from Ramad's I get the below, it reboots twice then I get the error about the CSC, then it reboots with the galaxy s boot with sound, stays there for a few then just reboots constantly, playing the boot with sound.

Bar goes a quarter of the way, phone reboots
Go to darkyrom.com and find this rom darky rom extreme 12.2 this link is up and working.it's jvq rom but that doesn't matter as long as the phone boots up.after that u can flash any rom from the phone cwm.
If this doesn't fix it,then try with pit.file and tick re-partition.
Get the pit-file from "ramad"
Are u trying to flash from 3'recovery on your phone?? This can not be done
U need to flash using ODIN,it's a samsung flashing tool.
Before u can flash from your phone,u need cwm recovery.
Go to cf-root kernel and find a kernel that matches your firmware and flash it with ODIN,then u have custom recovery.
First time flashing with odin, google "flash with odin" there is video guides,easy to follow
I can get CWM on my phone, and I've flashed using ODIN but still no luck getting it not to constantly loop

Hey Priyana, I got the same problem.
I can boot to download mod but cant boot recovery mod, and my device is also not recognized when connected to PC
Any suggestion?
Usually just have to keep trying for Odin to detect the device.
Failing that you need a fresh pc.

also in what state should my device be when to plug it etc ty again
follow my signature go get the GB-stock-safe-v5 and also the overcome guide.
Follow the page 7 instruction on how to use Odin.
The Odin needs to be version 1.7, like the one included in GB-stock-safe-v5
When driver is good, Odin detects your tab when it is in Download mode, and you can flash the GB-stock-safe-v5

I used to have a Samsung Fascinate, but we just left Verizon for Straight Talk. 2 years ago AT&T gave me a refurbed Captivate that we left in the box until now. It has Eclair but I am wanting to possibly upgrade it to Stock Gingerbread or a nice stable Rom. So if someone could give me some pointers (sounds vague) that would be great.:good:

Check out my thread titled JellyUI in the Captivate Dev section. Instructions on how to flash the rom are in the first post. Enjoy
I actually think this is not a bad place for the post although Q&A would be better. I recently tried to bring my old cappy from stock to ICS. I had gingerbread but when I tried to flash CM9, I must have had an old CWM that was not compatible and got into a bootloop where the only way out was to odin back to stock. Then I had a nearly impossible time finding all the files that would allow me to get to ICS. Designgear's and a number of other files referenced throughout the dev section for upgrading have bad links now. I am on an i9000 bootloader with 2 button recovery (since the easiest way to get back to GB was to flash S7v3 with Odin since all the referenced files are still there) but cannot figure out an easy way to get a 3 button CWM even after spending a few days looking for a way to do it just using Odin and CWM as I did in the past. After a lot of trial and error and even getting to a point where I could not get into download mode anymore, I did get CM9 flashed eventually but I will not try again until I figure out how to at least get a 3 button CWM. I went almost two years as a cappy flashaholic and never once had to use ADB or Heimdall, so would prefer not to if possible.
If someone could provide a list of valid links to all the files that are necessary to go from stock to being able to flash ICS or JB roms, I will archive the files so they won't be lost.

I tried the 1st part but my phone automatically booted into recovery mode after the 1st Odin Flash.
If that was after u flashed the GB Bootloaders, that is ok. Just pull battery, replace it, get back into download mode and then Odin flash the Speedmod kernel so u can get the CWM Recovery. Then u can flash ur Rom of choice from there.

So does the speedmod kernal have CWM Recovery on it? I don't need to add that?
Also do I need to do a wipe?
That is all that u r Odin flashing the Speedmod kernel for...just to get to the CWM Recovery.
Just like the Guide states---after u Odin flash the kernel use the Button combo to reboot into Recovery. That kernel is not there to boot ur phone up, only there for u to use cwm.
And usually the Rom u flash will do a full wipe. But u can do it in the recovery if u want before u flash ur rom.
