[Q] How to save fw files during update?? - Bada Software and Hacking General

hi all
i want to modify a firmware but it is not released yet on samfirmware.com
i wrote on samfirmware twitter's page with no use...they didn't even say we are working on it
so what i want is to save the firmware files from kies during the update
how this could be done???
thanks in advance

Which Windows you use?
On XP you can see during Download 1 file... in Temp folder:
tmpAD.tmp something like that
If Kies is ready with Download, then it decrypt/decompress this file into:
tmpAD.tmp.zipfolder
Now, if you see on your Wave this Picture with handset... then you can copy files from Tempfolder.
About Win 7 I read this:
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Temp\
Best Regards

thanks adfree
another thing i can't make the update as i have a modified fw
how to change that
i played with the registry thing and kies finds the update but just after starting it kies say this device can't be updated

Post all infos, what Kies shows you or make Screenshot.
Then I can say something...
Best Regards

In new kies versions registry trick not work anymore
as new kies reload firmware version also during update process.
There was some time ago way to imitate kies, but now traffic between kies and update server are crypted.
here is thread about it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=834884&page=13
For galaxy are available tool "Kies registry pacther" which works also with new Kies.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835628
Probly best way is flash newest available full firmware for your region with multiloader and then update via kies

hello adfree
i managed to save the .tmp file only
how do i extract it
I contacted samfirmware but i didnt get any help
i googled and found nothing
my kies has suddenly stopped workin it just shows not respoding
reinstaling doesnt fix it , im on win 7 by the way
and i havnt been able to update firmware with kies so far becos something or the other would happen
my only hope is extracting that tmp file
please help

Copy .tmp file to desktop without closing kies. Then rename to .zip. You will then have access to all files inside update file.
Hope this helps.

After you flashed original firmware you must also reinstall pre-configutation to change product code.
If in preconfiguration already are XSG, change it some other and then back to XSG.

and after patching the registry it shows this
i read your way of changing product using PSAS but i couldn't do it as the drivers doesn't work for win 7 64-bit
seems that the product code won't be changed again
should i use 32-bit windows to change it adfree??
sorry for being late but i had to go to buy something

manged to solve it using Windows XP mode & qualcom driver
after fixing it the update showed up without patching registry
started the update and waiting it to complete download to take the files
using PSAS under XP mode was like a disaster on my weak old laptop
thanks to all of helped or tried to help

HELPPP
i tried renaming to .zip , rar , tar etc, but it doenst extract
i even installed XP today just for the sake of updating but still kies shows not responding... it was working fine few weeks ago, but then it suddenly stopped working... i thought it was because of windows 7 , but now i have XP and still it isnt working
please tell me how to extract the tmp file or at least how to get kies working

i am so sorry to tell you this but you don't extract that file by yourself or any program
kies shows during update a windows says in it decyrepting & decompressing binary files
then when you go to the temp folder you will find a folder contains all the files copy it and you will finish

Upgrading m5000 ROM to JASJAR_WWE_11353_137_10301.exe

I'm attempting to install iMate JasJar ROM on my SPV M5000 as detailed in the sticky topic "EXEC SUMMARY: TIPS n TRICKS to make your JasJar run well" in the Universal forum.
So far, it hasn't worked
Here's what I'm doing:
1) Downloaded https://www.clubimate.com/support/JASJAR/ROM/JASJAR_WWE_11353_137_10301.zip
2) Sync then reset the M5000
3) Left it plugged in, ran the JASJAR_WWE_11353_137_10301.exe
4) Click next, then it is "checking the information on your device"...
5) Then it says "Error 101: Connection Error" and have to exit.
I have tried this over and over, and on another PC with AS4.1 installed. Keep getting this error.
Any ideas?
off AS4.1
You have to try do not syncronize with AS,so, just click in setting conection in AS y keept disable conect with usb and COM.
Yeh, I've tried turning off connection options in ActiveSync. The little red cross shows on my tray icon, but getting "Error 101 Connection Error".
I've also had Error 120: Country ID Error.
I have tried running the update in bootloader mode. Still doesn't work so I reset out of that.
Thanks in advance!
Mat
You have to use MaUpgradeUt_NoID.exe to bypass the country error, since you're going from one manufacturer's ROM to another.
Hi there
Thanks for the advice... I tried downloading, unzipping, copying to PPC and installing MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe. It just gives error "This is not a valid PPC application" when you double-click it in the PPC file explorer.
Any ideas? Is this the right version of the file? Am I missing something?
No no u dont put the MayaNOID.exe on your ppc...
look in the folder of the jasjar rom you should see an executable romupgutt.exe (the only executable in the folder with a picture), simply copy the NO Id .exe into the rom folder and delete the rom upgrade utility executable thats already there.
Connect your M5000 via usb, kill activesync then launch the No ID upgrader. If it fails the first time, running it a second time usually does the trick
After you have applied the imate rom, is it possible to run all of the Orange cab files to re-apply the proper connection settings?

Just unlocked my ext_ROM using buzz's unlocker. Have copied the orange CAB files to desktop PC and will attempt to run them after rom upgrade. Will let you know how it went.

The JasJar rom I have is just a single executable to run on the desktop PC. There's no folder... should there be?
Maybe I don't have the right files?
I have
JASJAR_WWE_11353_137_10301.exe
ROMUpgradeUt.exe (downloaded randomly from somewhere)
MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe (downloaded from forum.xda-developers.com)
But yeh - the latter two ask for RUU.dll when I run them on the PC.
Should I have a folder full of other files, where do I get them?
The RUU.dll file is inside the JASJAR...exe file. Right-click on the executable and extract it to a folder using WinRAR or WinZip that is installed on your PC. Then, you can copy the MaUpgradeUt_NoID.exe to that folder and run it.

Hey BTT! Thanks for the advice.
Haha - I tried using Winzip and WinRar to extract the archive (it's self-executable right?)
Anyway - didn't work (error was that it could not be recognised by the app). So used filemon to determine what it was writing to and found it under docs and settings\username\local settings\temp.
Sorry I'm being a complete lamer. Just very scared I'm going to end up with brick!
So, I now have this screen. It shows a Magician! Can I use it for my Universal?
Why doesn't it have the update version information??! I'm scared!

Good - glad to know I'm not alone!
Anyway - anyone who's done this before - please come forward and confirm it's all going to be ok!
Thanks!
Bump!
ANYONE who has done a ROM upgrade before - please confirm that the screen I see above is okay for a Universal upgrade!
Don't mean to sound pushy - I really do appreciate all your help!
hi
can anyone with english m5000 post the rom on the ftp (if you cant dump the rom then maybe you can get it from the orange werbsite if its there)
and why do you want to put imate or other roms on your spv...are there any bugs? thanks

As far as I know, I don't think the ROM can be dumped. Nor have Orange released a ROM update and so it's not available anywhere!
Reason I want to put iMate ROM on is to test if there are any performance gains to be made. People seem to recommend updating to iMate ROM. Either way it's an experiment.
BUT - I'm still loathed to go through the process .... can someone who's done it post and confirm that it's ok to use the Magician update wizard AND that it's ok that the version info isn't shown in the update screen (see above)?
Thanks in advance.
Mat
i tried it on my spv m5000 using the files listed above. got past the magician screen. didn't work. just said that the rom didnt suit the machine because its from a different country. then the program ended.
still, I have recently been reading that the qtek rom is the one to go for.
here's the picture

Samsung i780 PDA ok PHONE not ok!?

Hello ,
Can anybody help i have i780 and there was WM6.5 23412 and i tried to update it to 23420 or 23071 but with both of these rom i got problem with flashing PHONE with mirage but failing in 50-70 % depending the size of rom..
I have had done it before to and no problems wasnt then ,and right know i have only pda functions and in the version button in settings there is only PDA number PHONE is blank,
using windows 7 and virtual windows xp!
Can anybody tell what may go wrong?
I have tried different things but neither on them working!
Sry my bad english!
Man, just realised what are you doing.
You are trying to flash PDA part to PHONE
All ROM's that are cooked are only PDA part!
PHONE part stills untouch!
You have now to reflash PDA and PHONE from offical samsung firmware.
After that you flash ONLY PDA part from any new version found here.
Good luck!
Just for case:I just say that with wm6.5 all was working probably. after ja try phone side was writing filed , last thing what i was tried was PDA side over flash in it worked! BUT PHONE side of mirage fail writing!

Ah thats simple. To flash phone part flasher changes usb state to cdma modem driver. So u need to install it first.

Man you make me smiling! I wrote about this mistake before!
Look where you have to flash new ROM's - it"s PDA part (not PHONE)
So now phone part is wrong, because you have flash it with pda bin.
Make nwo next procedure:
Open in "PDA" : WM6.5.. ..bin
Open in "Phone": phone.bin (find download link below)
Flash! After first boot make hard reset.
Good luck
Phone part http://www.mediafire.com/file/mnzyd2mzdi5/PHONE.rar. Dont forget to upack phone.bin from rar
thank you! It worked ! I understand i before wanted to but pda to phone part!
but firstly when i got that mobile there was wm6.0 then i upgrade it to 6.1 and then with bin fail 6.5 but i remembered that i put both wm6.5 bin to pda and phone part and then it worked... or i might done something differently
anyway big thanks to you
Thank You
I had the same Problem i had already flashed Samsung Official rom at the end But fails to write the Phone with official .bin for phone..its giving error at Exactly 50%..
Let me try Your method..Hope it works for me too..
Thanks in Advance
hi mate
I have tried Your method of only flashing the Phone.bin (as per attached Pic)
I think there is some serious problem with the flashing part or the tool ...
may be the new version of Multi Downloader has any option to revive the Phone ..
Currently My phone has NO Network.
Can You help me...
Try some solutions:
1. download with phone part from (link I provided before).
2. There can be another trouble with CDMA drivers or USB. XP http://uk.samsungmobile.com/pmgmvst.do?visitgbn=10970107&coflag=0 Vista http://uk.samsungmobile.com/pmgmvst.do?visitgbn=10970109&coflag=0
Reinstall drivers. Connect USB to rear of PC not front. retry
3. download full upgrade (including upgadetool) XP http://uk.samsungmobile.com/pmgmvst.do?visitgbn=10970112&coflag=0 Vista http://uk.samsungmobile.com/pmgmvst.do?visitgbn=10970111&coflag=0
4. If doesnt help- try to flash on another PC with XP or Win7(use XP drivers).
Heineken78,
thanks for your help. I made the same mistake - flashed the phone part - and had a bit of trouble finding out how the solve the problem. Your solution is very easy to implement and very effective.
Thanks a lot!

New 2.1 Firmware (HK) ZSJH2

Just connect the phone to Kies and you will find the update if your phone is HK version.
Not sure what's the update about, given 2.2 will be officially released soon.
The good thing is, heard from forum that using KIES update will keep your existing setting and all apps are kept.
Does anyone know what's the update about? Is it going to fix the unstable issue with 3 in Hong Kong?

Could you please explain how can i decrypt the .ENC file if I just want to extract the MODEM rom inside the firmware package?
yes, how can i decrypt the .ENC file
Its not so trivial without a specific tool. During KIES install you can snitch the files out of temp directory anyway. The above info is handy for various people for various things, they do the work and you get the goods

Use the attached executable, I have written using the kies dlls to decode, provided you have the encrypt string , kies [ kies is installed means .NET is already install] installed on your machine.
I have tested it on Windows 7, let me know if if face any problem in running.
Usage:
Extract in any directory, run from command line with .enc file as first parameter and encrypt string as second parameter, the .zip file will be created in same directory.
Nice work Pramods
Worked well here. Thanks a lot pramods.

How exactly did you get the encryptstring?
Its returned to KIES from Samsung's FUS server, you can just monitor the packets to get the KIES transaction to and from the server.
Using a Windows hosts file entry its possible to install any FW on their server (JG4/JM1/JH1 etc) via KIES anytime with a few simple php files, so long as you have the CRC/ENCRYPTSTRING and file path.

Do you have Kies installed ?, the exception suggest that the COM InterOp dll was not found, that means FUSCrypt.dll not registered.

Yeah, KIES sends your current PDA/CSC/MODEM/CONTENTS versions to Samsungs FUS, which replies with XML which is either "bad luck no update for u!" or the updates URL, encrypt string, crc and other informations. You get this only when you provide to the FUS the information/versions it knows that are set to be allowed to update to a particular FW. So in the case of JPC/XX/XEU update, for a while FUS responded with that update from a generic JF3 request.

[Q] Samsung Apps Problem

Hello guys,
This is my problem: When I open Samsung Apps at my phone, it gives to loading screen and after that it crashes, it just goes back to the home screen.
I think this is because I updated Samung Apps at a 3G network, but the connection was lost, so it didn't finish the update...
I just dit a factory reset, but it still crashes...
And when I open Kies, it says there is an update for Samsung Apps. But when I click on `update` it says that the latest version is already installed.
Is there a way to reset samsung apps? To remove and re install it?
Much thanks, Thijmen.
Im having same problem. I recently updated my phone's firmware to Bada 2.0. Straight away i tried to go to Samsung apps, but it shouted it needed to be updates. Well, update it is... My phone anyway jammed during the installation of update. Well, i rebooted it, but afterwards samsung apps doesn't open up on my mobile. It just opens the Samsung apps splash screen and goes back to menu or desktop, where ever i try to open it up.
Things i've tried to resolve this problem:
1. Factory reset, did nothing
2. Hard reset, didn't help
3. Tried to remove folder Samsung Apps from mobile with TK file explorer and stune, didn't work out. Not sure if it was right directory tho. Was something like AppEx\SamsungApps
Is there a way to re-install Samsung apps app?
Any help will be appreciated
You must flash the ShpApp.app of your firmware with multiloader. Write *#1234# to know your firmware version, then download the firmware and use multiloader to flash lite the Shpapp only.
Thanks Aurex for your response. It's very informative.
ok, so im going to do this thing.... I am downloading the firmware, but im not fully sure which one i should grab...
PDA Bada CSC Country/Carrier
S8500XXLD2 2.0 S8500OXBLC1 Sweden
S8500XXLD2 2.0 S8500OXBLC1 Nordic countries
S8500XXLD2 2.0 S8500OXBLC1 Sweden
There's 3 firmwares with exact same sw/csc details. None of those say it's suitable for Finnish version though. Can i still use those for this purpose?
Is there some guide to flash this thing only or do i have to fiqure it out myself?
And does this small flashing lose my personal data?
You can use what you want of this 3 firmware, no problem Open multiloader and don't select full firmware and bootfiles and select only SHPAPP. Take your ShpApp and click on Port Search and Download. No data lose.
But...have you ever flash before?
To be honest, i haven't never even seen a multiloader I've always flashed my firmware the legal ways (kies). But it can't be that hard, can it?
Does it matter what version of multiloader i use?
Here Multiloader 5.67
First of all you must go in download mode, so, press at the same time:
1. Volume Down Button
2. End Call Button
3. Lock Button
This is the download mode:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Connect your wave on pc with usb.
Then open Multiloader and select LSI and click on SHPAPP. Select your ShpApp and then click on Port Search and Download:
Ok, now i got firmware and multiloader 5.65. Only thing i need to do on the app is insert ShpApp.app to it's place?
EDIT: you answered me faster than i could post... So im trying to follow your instructions, but i port search ain't working. It just goes grey for couple seconds and comes back, nothing happens. Can't press download button.

Ok, so: open Samsung Kies and go to "Tools" (I think ) and "errors in troubleshooting connections" (or something similar). You need drivers.
Well, i managed to handle it with another computer. Percentages started running, will see what happens...

You said "some overseas" ROM, then I think root is the way as it is region locked (as all new Samsung devices).
Got it connected it was something to do with PC as I was trying it with Windows 7 and works with no issues with XP
How do I do a clean install to flash stock rom as when i try it some files and folders are still present
Do hard reset before and after flashing.

Thanks will try that I am trying to put I9195XXUAMH2_I9195OXXAMH4_I9195XXUAMH2_HOME.tar Rom to it
Am I better with a custom kernel or ??
As when i use this post HERE for Rooting
I encounter an error like this : unknown volume for path (sd/ext)
Sometimes the PC doesnt copy files over which i think something is wrong with partition

Custom kernel is better with some custom ROMs.
I am using W7 Ultimate and no problems at all.
I would suggest you to uninstall all Samsung stuff, clear PC cache and restart. Reinstall drivers connect your phone and let install drivers. Don't install KIES. Unplug phone from PC and do hard reset (either via Menu or Home+Vol Up+Power).Then turn off your phone and reboot to download mode, connect to PC wait for driver installation and when Odin shows/recognized phone proceed with flashing. It takes about 5 min.
My CSC showing TSI (???) but flashed generic UK(BTU) and generic German (DBT) ROMs without any problems.
I have used this ( I9195XXUAMH2_I9195OXXAMH4_BTU) from Sammobile.
Not sure about Samsung's region lock, but I think its just 3 regions : EMEA, Asia and Americas.
