(after a link back to this post)
I use debian not ubuntu but the idea is install the java5 package from the older version (keeping your java6 package) then use the alternatives command to switch between them.
If you primarily use java6 and don't want to be constantly switching the alternatives you can always in part of your build setup (just before running '. build/envsetup' add the java6 bin directory to the beginning of your path. (That or take a moment to allow java6 to work with froyo.. I'm not sure exactly what needs to happen but it ought not be that bad [edit: seems the same person has some instructions for java6: http://tech.ruimaninfo.com/?p=49 ])

First off. Did you run AIO as admin? Second your supposed to run Odin first (as admind mind you) and then connect the phone in download. You didnt show this so i dont know. As to the unbrick heimdall, Ive never used it so I dont know whats wrong there. Also since you used heimdall those drivers conflict for ODIN.

thank you man for the help its all fixed now but appreciate the help

what was it?

I had bad USB ports and it already helps to have USB 3.0 ports for extra power worked better with unbrickable mod

[Q] Odin help - please

I'm probably going to get flogged for posting such a dumb question but I need to because all my search results have given me a mine field of information and I'm still no further forward.
I've had the S2 for a little while now. I'm familiar with it - so now I want to get it rooted!
I seem to be falling at the first hurdle though. Thing is.............. when i try to open the .exe odin file - the odin box flashes up very quickly but then disappears! It's driving me mad!
Any help would be MASSIVELY appreciated.
Cheers
Tanya

First of all this is the SGS 1 forum.. not SGS2...
and about your odin problem. if you are on win 7 try opening it as administrator.

bugger! sorry, missed that one.
I'm still using windows xp!
I'll repost in the correct forum.
Thanks
Tanya

there are threads/posts containing links to the naked drivers, and also theres an awesome one tool (sorry i forget the devs name, i think its installed on my notebook) anyway - its mostly for unlock/root/soff etc. but it has a link to dl the drivers.
if you dont get it resolved by the time i find a link for the drivers you, i'll post em here.
Heres squabbi's AIO toolkit http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2364445 it is powerful, but it has a buton to install the drivers. idk if it will help much, but if i come across more, later, i'll put em here. Unlessyou solve it first. good luck!

[Q] 40yr old with little tech sense compared to you guys needs help

Hi all, I have searched and searched on here for what I need but just cant seem to find it. my GT-S5830 will go into dload mode but when i reboot it gives me the exclemation phone to pc sign. I have dloaded the "S5830XWKTR_S5830H3GKT4_S5830NEKT2_HOME.tar.md5" file and numerous versions of odin of which I now believe that "odin Multi_Downloader_v4.43" is the correct one for me. I think I am missing other files but am not sure. When I press start I get the message "unamed file not found" and in corner i get "killer timer"
I know this forum is designed for new users to learn for themselves and must use the search facility's etc to gain knowledge however I am an OLD new user and was wondering if anyone could help me sort this phone out. I recently rooted it (or at least I think i did) then tried to put new rom on it previous to getting the exclemation symbol. I now am trying to restore it to factory settings unrooted with my 3 carrier. maybe so that I can then root it and install new rom.... thats if I dont find getting my phone back to working condition to complicated..
Thanks in advance for any help and I am sorry admin if I am posting unhelpfully, I dont wish to clog the forum.
