Hi!
Unfortunately, this thread is useless! When I saw it i thought it was an alternate fix.
There are several threads about restoring a frimware via ODIN. Please search before you post.
Also, you are kindly requested to read the Forum Rules.

I tried using the heimdall program to flash the ed02 files and it still gives this in recovery. Im at my wits end with this and really dont want to send it to sammy. Verizon will not honor the warranty due to the number being disconnected.
Can anyone help me with this so i dont have to send it in. Thanks
1. download heimdall. get it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=755265
2. download the stock verizon files. get them here: http://www.blackmugmedia.com/Android/GT/Mirror/Recovery/CDMA/Verizon/VZW Stock/
you need all four files.
3. download the drivers for the samsung sch-i800. find those here: http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/c...G_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1.3.350.0.exe
4. unzip heimdall. go into the drivers folder, and run zadig.exe. at the top, select 'list all devices'. go to the dropdown menu, and select Samsung Composite USB (i'm pretty sure that's what it was called.) click start, and let it run.
5. open the heimdall front end.
6. put system in system (if you're flashing to ec02, then put factory in system)
put cache into cache
put param into param
put the zimage into both the kernel and recovery slots.
7. turn your tab off, and plug it into the computer using USB. hold down the power and the volume down buttons until you see the little droid dude with a shovel.
8. click the start button on heimdall.
9. wait for the flash to complete (don't unplug your device, obviously, during the flashing.) once your phone reboots, it's okay to unplug it.
10. now, boot into the stock recovery, and wipe data and cache. reboot, and update to ec02.
11. enable usb debugging.
12. plug your phone back in to the computer.
13. now run superoneclick for root. get that here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682
14. either play with it in stock, or go find oldmacnut's excellent Better Than Life Rom, and follow the instructions to flash that.
15. enjoy your tab!

it's for the verizon CDMA tab. and you can post it, it's supposed to be helpful. i lurked on these boards for like, 2 months before i got brave enough to try doing stuff to my tab. having a step by step process really made me feel like i was flashing with at least a little bit of a safety net.

Ok i downloaded all the files and it is still looping on me. I went into the recovery and it is still giving me the same errors. Im at a loss here. I think it just may have to go to sammy. Im not that good with this. I really do appriciate all the help.
when you're in recovery, does it let you wipe cache and data? maybe try that, then reflash?
I tried with the updated version and e2 version of the software and anytime i go into the recovery its giving me that same line of errors. I think it might be a soft/hard brick. I may have to send it in to get serviced. Im just glad that if i do the stock software is flashed to it and they wont be able to tell the difference.
Edit:
Well after doing some digging it seems that the recovery partition cannot be loaded onto the disk. It looks like the internal sd card itself might be corrupt or fried. I have adb that i can try to do it with, but im just tempted to send it in. I am just hoping that they dont say that its no longer warranted.
Hi,
I was trying to upgrade to Gingerbread, and downloaded the FW files from samfirware.com. I used Odin to flash, everything turned out successful, except that my tab gets stuck at the Samsung logo screen. Any help would be appreciated?
Thanks
if you have a verizon tab, we don't have gingerbread yet. if you have a GSM tab, try booting into recovery, wiping cache, data, and dalvik, and rebooting. beyond that, since i don't have a GSM tab, i dunno what to tell you.

Well samsung has fixed it for me. they had to replace the entire control board. I guess i really did a number on it. Whats cool is that its not going to be a verizon tab anymore. They have the hardware for it but the rom is stock like it was bought off the shelf. I cant believe it would fry like that after just charging.
So, i rooted my original galaxy tab p1000 with odin3-v1.8, but when im in clockwork mod, and i want to install roms or WHATEVER thing i choose, i get an error similar to E: can't mount. Whether i try to clear cache or reset, it says this and i have no choice. It seems like a brick....ANYONE Help me, Much will be appreciated.
It seems like it was not rooted correctly. Did you run titanium backup after rooted?
Can u tell us what was the latest working firmware u had? FROYO,,GB? 2.2, 2.3.3, 2.3.6?
Anyways, Follow these steps carefully to fix almost all kind of softbrick:
1a. Download Fus Check Downloader 2.1 on your computer from url]http://fus.nanzen.se/[/url] , start it up and and downloaded a Firmware for your region. It will automatically decode the .enc2 file to.zip file
1b. Download this pitfile from following link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=631856&d=1308653969
1c. Download this dbdata from the following link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=631856&d=1308653969
2. Extract the .zip file generated from decoding file to a folder and I got tar.md 5 file.
3. Start Odin - put the .md5 to PDA
Put the pitfile from step 1b to the PIT
Check repartition. Leave everything else as is.
4. Go to download mode on the G-tab, connect to ur computer
and click start on Odin. It takes about 6 to 7 minutes to do the flashing.Once done flashing it will reboot but mostlikely you still have problems with your tab.
5. on your Odin, put the dbdata file from step 1c to PDA, leave everything else as is.
Reboot your tab to download mode, connect to computer, and click start on Odin.
6. Once done, reboot to recovery mode, do a factory reset wipe, and data cache wipe.
Reboot again, wait for about 5 minutes for the tab to boot, you should be all set.
Thx

Thank you for your help too,
Here is everything you need for a flawless upgrade from a 4.2.2 to 4.4.2 on the i537 hardware.
Step 0: Download this zip file. It has everything that we will need (except Odin3. Don't want my link/thread/post pulled).
Step 1 - Update from to 4.3.
Download and unzip the Stock ML2 4.3 image. Reboot your phone into Download Mode (Hold Volume Down while booting up, then press Volume Up when prompted). Don’t worry about current root, SafeStrap, etc - as it’s all going away soon.
Step 2 - Match up the file names to the four ‘Files’ sections in the lower right corner of Odin3. The individual filenames of the .tar.md5 files will be used as an identifier. Check “update bootloader” and click ‘Start’. Once it finishes and reboots into 4.3, enable USB debugging mode on the phone.
Step 2- Reboot into Download Mode. Apply Pwnedkernel 4.3 with Odin using the PDA File section.
Step3 - Now let the phone boot up. You will need USB Debugging enabled again, and ensure that you have USB ADB access.
Step 4 - Once ready, run Saferoot to the running pwned 4.3 image (install.bat for Windows, install.sh for Linux/Mac OS). Follow the terminal instructions until completion.
Reboot. Launch SuperSU and update the binary. Disable Knox with your new root access. Ignore any issues with Modems, etc.
Step 5 - Flash original 4.3 kernel back with Odin3 using the PDA File section.
Step 6 - Place your SafeStrap apk, PwnedKitKat, and SuperSU to your SD Card.
Step 7 - Install SafeStrap (make sure to launch it for the bootloader to install correctly)
Step 8 - Reboot into SafeStrap recovery. Flash PwnedKitKat.zip, followed by SuperSU.zip. Do not reboot in between, clear cache, or any other nonsense.
Step 9 - When finished, reboot back into DOWNLOAD MODE. Now flash the stock KitKat kernel using Odin3 (using the PDA File section).
Finished!

I hate to be a nit picker, but shouldn't this say "from 4.2 to 4.3"?
Thanks for a great post and the zip file! Makes it nice n easy for us. Can't wait to flash later!

Tell me how do you download your zip because after an hour of "downloading to my pc" I yet have to see any file in any of my download folders.
2nd of all I made the mega account, tried downloading through the account to my pc, then through the cloud, then through the sync & still am unable to physically see any download happening onto my pc hdd... Although I respect the owner, Kim Dotcom there is something wrong since you can't simply even download a file like it is normally available, (a standard) through your browser..
Please explain to me how do you get the 1.67gb file onto the pc because I tried everything I could think of and I am unable to & I am not a noob.
This is the first time i stumbled upon something weird like this..
when i update to Kitkat on safestrap it says "Checking MD5 File... Skipping MD5 Check: no MD5 File found." Should i be worried?

I do not understand which 4 files to put where
Match up the file names to the four ‘Files’ ... How do you MATCH them up. I only see one file to match up called CSC
What does the AP CL and CP and how do those match up to Bootloader PDA and PHONE ??
Display issues
As soon as I installed 442 kernel display issues popped up. The screen is brighter on the left than on the right with vertical lines running throughout.
Started whole process again... issues go away until 442 kernel is reapplied.
Any suggestions?
I was able to get Eclipse TW 4.02 SS ROM to boot and it looks very nice so far.. as close to AOSP as we will get. I started with the usual 4.3 > TR> SS 3.71 > NC9 Update >KK Kernel > SS3.73 upgrade path, then downloaded the newest eclipse 4.02 SS ROM and 4.4.2 i537 modules. I went ahead and inserted the modules into the eclipse ROM just to save an additional flash step, then flashed the new rom, wiped data,dalvik and cache then rebooted to download and flashed the KK i537 kernel on top. After a few minutes I'm at the setup screen.
So far the only issue I'm battling is the default camera FC, the Google camera app doesn't seem to work either
downloading issues?

I have downloaded the file 3 times now (accidentally deleted it the first, then ineeded it on a laptop at a friends house. Downloaded flawlessly. Im FAARRR from a noob, but honestly, a 10 year old could do it. I did my sons active and mine. Try using a differrnt browser or something. Only took about 20 minutes total to download the whole file. I used IE every time. I dont know if thays the dame browser you used but if not, then try that. (I know this post is a little older, but for someone like me who just picked up a couple actives this week it came in mighty handy. Thanks for the tutorial. Does anyone know of any 4.4.2 touchwiz based rome that I can use now that I have safestrap (3.73) running? Or is this basically all we are going to get. Im ok with that but woild love a deodexed TW rom to use. Have trued deodexing mine several times now and while it says thay it worked and is complete, its still odexed after reboot from recovery??!?!
This is for those who tried to flash Tizen via Odin when you had Null rom installed like me.
If this sounds like you too, then follow this guide and you should be ok.
Very important to remember.
You had to have been Running Null ROM when you attempted to install Tizen through odin.
If not I am not sure how to fix the issue or if this guide will work for you or not.

Original Link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2767465
--------------------------------------------------------
Intructions (FOLLOW THEM!!!)
This is for those who have/had Null ROM and soft bricked their
galaxy gear one V700
It may work for any other kinds of issues but I only tested this
on my device.
I installed Null and tried to update to Tizen using Odin and the
update tar/md5. I ended up with a pain in the [email protected]#%[email protected]#^ soft brick.
Here we go!
(!!!)
Step 1 - Open odin from odin folder
Step 2 - Uncheck "Auto Reboot" from odin and select the pit button. Go into step one and select the pit 1 file.
Step 3 - Select the AP button and go into step 1 and open the
step 1 tar file.
Now your Device should be stuck on download mode if you are
having the same issues as I did.
If you are not in download mode then you will not be able to
follow this guide. If your device is just rebooting or something
other than stuck on download mode, then I would look somewhere
else for help. Sorry :/
Step 4 - Make sure you plug your device using the cradle, then
hit start.
Once it finishes, let it completely power on. it will look weird
and you may or may not think its back up and working and try
to stop reading my help guide here. DONT DO IT!!! JUST KEEP READING AND BE PATIENT!!!
Now AGAIN this guide was for those who had Null and tried flashing
Tizen via odin to update and failed like me.
I say this again because if you didnt have Null I am not sure you will be able to get ADB Debugging to work. If you do please post
it so we know you twig.
Step 5 - Open the Oopsiiieess Folder and open the file called
"CommandPrompt.bat"
That should open up command prompt. If not open command prompt
and the type "cd" without quotes, then hit the spacebar then go the where the folder "Null ROM To Tizen..." is and open that up. Then drag and drop the "Oopsiiieess" folder into command prompt and hit enter.
You can test that you did this right by typing:
adb devices
as long as you did this right you should now see your gear serial
and at the end of that it should say recovery.
As long as it does continue. If not Then you don't have access to
adb and you have done all of the following for nothing...Sorry good luck to you my friend!
Ouch mean!
Or check to make sure your device is properly connected.
Now
Step 6 - :
Type
adb reboot download
Step 7 - (as long as it rebooted to download)
hit the reset button in the button of the Odin app.
Then select the pit from part 2, then select AP and select the tar
from part 2.
Step 8 - Hit start on odin
When thats finished go ahead and let it reboot and do the same thing as step 6 again. Not step 7.
Once in download mode again....
Step 9 - Hit reset again in odin
- Hit the AP button, select the file from Step 3.
Hit start and wait for it to finish. This may take a way so go
use the bathroom, let the dogs out, or just sit there and wait...
I did, sit there and wait...My dogs did not like that...
um thats it. You should now have a working Tizen Gear One...
