Yep. Just use Odin

Ok, i got the latest official firmware from samfirmware.com
Files include
512 pit file
CODE_I9000XWJM8.tar.md5
MODEM_I9000XXJM4.tar.md5
where should the red files be put in odin ?
The options i have are PDA PHONE and CSC ???
Do i need any other files ?
I dont wanna mess this up

If you absolutely positively have the right firmware - the CODE is the, um.... actusally I don't know... anyone else?

I know that's definitely wrong!
Phone = Modem - I know that!
And where's your PDA?
There's plenty of guides on this forum for flashing with Odin - just have a look in the main Dev threads - there's an Uber thread in there that explains literally everything...

LOL, dont wasnt any help

Hi,
the CODE file should be put to PDA,
MODEM is Phone, pit file is obvious..
Also you should flash a CSC File (which you put to CSC ) depending on your country or any Multi-CSC! Just use the search.

i downloaded I9000UGJH2 FROM
http://www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-i9000.htm
AND THEN ALSO
Galaxy S / .PIT File: DOWNLOAD. (512) FROM THE SAME SITE
LOADED Odin3 v1.3
CHECKED RE-PARTITION
MOUNTED BY PIT
s1_odin_20100512.pit
MOUNTED BY PDA
I9000UGJH2-PDA-Kernel-Bootloader-CL490514-Low.tar
CLICKED START AND IT DID EVERYTHING ELSE
now my phone is stock and works just like new

thanks guys, worked a treat

S7 to stock questions. (warranty related, help!)

Gotta go back to to stock cause my samsung is having the search button issues and it has to go back for warranty. Odin 1 click isback to stock for AT&T phone, and the one for Rogers, is confusing me to all hell. [STOCK ROMS] i896 Rogers 2.1 and 2.2 Warranty ROM Remove ATT boot, no dbdata error!! - xda-developers
Can anyone clarify this for me, im a little lost, they said to go back to stock AT&T bootloaders, then to re-flash the Rogers stock rom?
Edit: i got most of it sorted out, but im looking for the 512 PIT file and cant find it. They said it came with ODIN, but i dont see it there in the file, (all it was a .exe file)

This is so well documented in here. Did you do a search or look through the Q&A subforum?

I did a quick search, but i admit, i didnt have alot of time when this happened this morning. Ive been searching more and more at work. Mainly i just use google though. I managed to find a 512 FILE that was in another captivate thread and emailed myself the link. Going back to stock seems to be quite a task when you havent done it before. Ive read the instructions on the site a few times. Gonna have to look over it again when i get home.
any advice when doing this?

Okay, so im attempting to do it in the next 10 -15 mins, i just want to clariify something.
This is the steps im about to take :
Unzip files to one location
Download "APN backup and restore" from market on Phone & Backup APN settings
Boot phone into download mode. (Powered OFF, hold VOL UP & DN, plug in USB)
Open Odin3 1.xx flashing utility (NOT ODIN3 ONE CLICK RESTORE TO STOCK)
Use the .tar file from the stock ROM .zip in PDA box of ODIN
Use the 512 .pit file that came with odin3 and check re-partition and check auto-reboot. PIT FILE IS A MUST IF YOU HAVE FLASHED ANY CM7 / MIUI Ginger ROM!!!!! If NO GINGER+, pit should be OPTIONAL.
Click start.
Download APN b & R and Restore APN settings
Now, im using S7, which is a 2.3 ROM, do i need to flash the bootloaders too? Thats the most confusing part for me. The rest is cake.

[Q] How to convert back to Stock rom??

Hey all
my device is SAMSUNG Galaxy S GT-I9000
so here it is, i had messed up my phone with loads of roms, tweaks, etc..
and at some time i flashed to ICS beta and that really screw my kernel up as i had to install a custom kernel "fugomod or such"
so i tried the ICS and didn't like it, i wanted to return to my stock rom and couldn't "because of the kernel and stuff" i tried hard to recover my phone till i found Cyanogen Mod! it was the only rom which installs it's own via recovery mod so i tried it, i liked it but get sick of it.. i really want my stock rom back!! SAMSUNG KIES can't even recognize my phone it only plugs with mass storage mode!!!
sooo... help??

Anybody can tell me how can i restore back to stock rom?

go to sammobile.com and get the latest firmware for your phone and flash it using odin..

Got it.
Can it use odin to flash other stock rom?

The roms on sammobile used to contain three files - Phone, CSC and PDA file.. you can download 512 pit file by searching .... I guess using these four files at the same time should solve your problem.. if it is a problem of bootloaders then search in forums of how to flash bootloaders

512 pit file by searching? what do u mean please where to find it? sorry i'm noob
and okay i'm downloading now from SAMFIRMWARE, hope it contains the three files
this thread was supposed to solve my problem but the links in it aren't working no more
so now all is need are the three files and the PIT and the Kernel of the rom JPJV6.

Download one from sammobile.com, or google it. Use your country specified ROM.
Then use Odin with 512 Pit file, and tick repartition.

i cant post links

[Q] How to restore a .tar file downloaded from sammobile.com?

Hi,
I'm wondering if anyone would happen to know how to restore a .tar file that I downloaded from sammobile.com/firmware/ . I got it in the hopes it would have a seperate PDA, CSC etc. files so I could restore using Odin put I have to admit I was stumped when I just got one .tar file. The file in question is Optus' 2.3.3 firmware and is called 'jvn_jv5_jv1.tar' if it's any help. The files inside the tar are:
-zImage
-param.lfs
-cache.rfs
-factoryfs.rfs
-boot.bin
-modem.bin
-Sbl.bin
Thanks.

Not 100% certain on this so perhaps wait for a confirmation but I think that if you only have one tar file you put it in the PDA and flash it.

Can totally confirm this!!
But if you want further confirmation there are instructions on sammobile.com
It's an easier way to flash as its only one file and less people can get the files mixed up. (It still has the kernal and modem inside it)
Edit: Just check and it seems to be missing dbdata.rfs Did you miss that out. If its not there then do another download and see if it is. If not then im sure it'll be fine..

Can somebody give me firmware with csc, pda, pit..

Can somebody give me firmware with csc, pda, pit..and the others files for flashing in odin? Is there such firmware ?

Umm, actually there is a 4 part firmware for Mini 2. It's S6500BVLD2, which is Orange branded Polish firmware, the same my phone came when I bought it. But when I tried to flash it, Odin was giving me errors. Maybe because there's no pit file?
It's here: https://hotfile.com/dl/159174614/d441535/GT-S6500_IDE_S6500BVLD2_S6500IDELC6_S6500BVLD1.zip.html

pit file is only needed when re-partitioning...

But why Odin gave me errors?
When I loaded all 4 files, the Odin got stuck at flashing the included Bootloader. It didn't do anything, as I've unplugged the phone, and no changes were made.
When I loaded the files without the Bootloader, it has FAIL! while flashing the modem I think.

Use official S 6500 (not D) firmware!

This is the S6500 firmware! It's the same as my phone shipped with! I wanted to make it as stock as possible after I've installed Peter's Rom, as I wasn't full satisfied by it, but the firmware simply wouldn't flash, so I've switched for now until CM 10 or official JB to S6500XXLK2 (CSC: DBL, german Debitel). It works fine, and the phone is successfully recognized by Kies.

It will give u nfc force closes till you delete nfc.apk and tag.apk
Sent from my GT-S6500D using xda app-developers app

And SmartcardService.apk! This is also an app dedicated for NFC! Not many people know that!

I'll try this - which 3 files do I need?

I loaded the files in ODIN but ODIN can't flash - just stops !

Don't bother with installing the 4 part firmware. I tried it too, and it can't be done. Plus, it's not for your device.
Flash a firmware (via PDA section) from here: http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-S6500D and you're be fine. You don't need a 4 part firmware to flash your phone, and restore it back to stock.

Did you saw my problem - even when I flash it with firmware i still can't get to the recovery..
