[Q] Odin type confirm?

Alright I'm trying to get my sisters phone working right with a new custom ROM and root and all but...Odin is killin me...I've downloaded it from two different sources and every time it opens it says something like Odin.int[][][][] then I click ok and it crashes every time. The Odin I have downloaded is V1.85 and I have an older Odin for my vibrant that works (v1 of odin3), can I use that? Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!

After u download odin click on download extract odin then start odin. Shouldnt crash. The whole odin package needs to be extracted to work. Learned that the hard way back then

I've used Odin slot for my vibrant so I've got that far but after I extract the file that Odin.into[][][][] is what it gives me...I just need to know if I can use an older version of Odin on the sgs2

[Q] Stock Rom in Zip Format

Hello,
Can someone help me find a link to a working stock unrooted rom in a zip format. I need to flash it and do not have access to a windows computer but all the files that I have found are no longer working links. I need this by tomorrow I have to take my phone to Sprint due to an issue with my hardware.
Thank you,

You said no access to Windows PC - how about ANY PC, including Mac/Linux? If so you can use Heimdall.
If not, how about this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459529&highlight=el29

mobile odin is what you are looking for. Check it out in the market. You can flash .tar files from your phone.

I do have a Mac and I have used heimdall to flash kernel many times but I have never used it to flash roms and I do not know how to do it. I will look into the mobile odin.

Is it safe to flash full rom tar files through mobile Odin?

Not sure. I don't think it is fire ics tars not that he's looking for one. I only flashed kernels using it

Hello guys, I am still having problems finding a stock eg30 or el29 in a zip format to flash in recovery. I tried using a windows computer to use the one click root but it stops working about 20 seconds in.
Thank you all in advance.

Can you provide any more information on the problem that you're having? Might also help to know what you're currently running and if there are any issues beyond the ODIN OC problems mentioned.

I am running a calkulin 1.0 because I was relying to find a rom that at least looks stock. I have tried Odin and all it does to my phone is leave a message to connect to Kies for recovery. I reflash a kernel and fix it but all it seems to take is flashing using recovery.

Did you try the stock rom in the link I provided before? You should be able to do that by CWM.

Use mobile Odin and flash the tar files here ....

That is the generic behavior if an ODIN flash does not complete.
What does the log say in ODIN OC?
That will give insight into why it is failing.
You can also take the ODIN OC files (or the individual .tar.md5 in the 2nd post of the ODIN OC threads) and feed them to Mobile ODIN (after unpacking the 7zip self extractors)

That link just seems to be modems not rooms.

Hello

So I have an att gs3 with Tmobile service. I have unlocked the phone my self. Where the problem lies is I can't get it to root. I've tried it on windows with Odin didn't work. I've tried it on my Mac with heimdall didn't work. My kies on my Mac will read the phone and let it connect but aft won't read. But heimdall does detect a device. It fails when it comes to debugging. Idk what to do. I want to root!!! Please help me!

what error were you getting on odin? what thread were you using as a guide? what firmware tar were you using and where did you get it?

I was following utube video and in odin it wouldnt do anything id click start and it would say failed.

I believe kies is to be uninstalled before using ODIN.

That's not correct. I use Odin everyday and certainly do not uninstall Kies first. OP, have you tried different ports on your pc? Try them all. Another thing I read, if you are on a 64 bit machine, try creating a 32 bit virtual and doing it from there(last resort). Try doing it from a Windows XP computer(if not already). And try to flash back completely to stock, unrooted, and start again. See if any of those help.

Are you trying to root in download mode or with the phone turned on?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 4

root
It is in download mode. I heard people had this problem before but found no real answer.

Your are using the *.tar? Or you unzipped it?
Also try reinstalling drivers. Connect it turned on, let the PC recognize it. Then do do the same in download mode. Then disconnect the phone, open Odin an try again.

When you're using Odin does it turn yellow showing your phone is connected?
Make sure all drivers are installed and you're using Odin 1.85.

@210euser Thanks ...drivers are good. Windows 8.1 can see the phone and odin also...
I will try Odin 1.85 but I used 3.07 when I rooted the phone after I bought it...?
I think I used Odin 3.07 a year ago...?

I'm having the same issue... I have SGH-i317m.
4.3 bootloader kept failing and my phone wouldn't boot anymore, so I used the same ODIN to revert back to the 4.1.2 bootloader..
So since, I reverted my phone back, I know the ODIN works and I have the necessary drivers installed.. any idea?
I've attached a screenshot of the situation right now.. I've already tried 5 times and they all failed.

I"m still trying myself... I think it s Win 8.1... no usb hub drivers for samsung even though I installed KIES

OK I uninstalled KIES... re installed it and selected also include universal driver and hub drivers are there . Then used Odin 1.85 and boot loader went threw

So you got the 4.3 bootloader to work? Could you perhaps upload the tar file that you used to flash?
I'm starting to think that my tar file is the issue... bc I tried installing the drivers with Kies as well, and still no luck..

Yes it worked...don't know why.. The file was from Miscoms stainless rom. but I don't see it there. The DN3 Ditto post has the file there.
