I'm running VeNuM ICE 3.1.1 with FC22 Modem and Kernel. Apparently I used stock on the kernel during my last flash and lost my recovery. What's the easiest way to get it back since I'm already rooted and the Android System Recovery <3e> doesn't give me the option to flash anything?
Odin or mobile odin.

Cool, that's what I was thinking but i wasn't sure. Thanks!
I use mobile odin, it's easy. Download kernel tar to phone. In mobile odin press kernel, find the tar and hit go. It reboots the phone for you

I am a dummy and am in somewhat the same situation. I flashed aokp build 28 ics rom, right in the beginning of the thread it says 'dont flash from stock ics recovery' I had team rouge on ics rom, so I thought I was good. Now I just go to android system recovery.
Will the odin thing work for me too, or will I mess it up further. from what I have read, odin seems like what I am supposed to do.
sorry if I wasnt supposed to ask in this thread, but at least it shows I am searching!

i am rooted. I want to flash a different rom altogether, mainly because I don't know if a kernel I can flash that will let me boot into rouge or cwm.
the aokp that I flashed came with fc15 kernel and I wanted to flash to fc22 and that is when I realized I was only able to boot into android system recovery.

From what I've heard is not to mess with a Recovery while on ICS due to their being bricks... I'd suggest using the ODIN one click to EL29, then use autoroot package with option C, to install Rogue recovery and flash to a newer ICS ROM.

What id suggest is downloading chris41gs stock el26 recovery and use mobile odin to flash it. Then upon reboot go into recovery and flash whatever u want next. Then if u want to switch roms again or update, follow the same procedure.
thanks Febby & rsalinas1, I used sfhubs one click odin to stock, then installed FC24 with cwm and I am good to go. good (cheap) learning experience for me.
HELP!!! My brother heard me talking about rooting my phone and installing cool ROM’s so he gave it a shot.. He has a Samsung galaxy s2 epic 4g touch, he loaded some ICS rom that does not have WiFi working, it also does not have USB working? He also didn’t load any recovery making it hard to bring it back to stock.
So I have a Samsung galaxy s2 epic 4g touch with some weird ICS rom, the Wifi does not work, no SDCard access, it has NO USB support.. it does have Bluetooth working so I have been able to move files to it but the rom he installed is not rooted and I can’t install a recovery app…
I can boot into download mode but with no USB support oden will not see the phone
Any advice on how to root the phone or get a recovery app installed from the phone?
I can boot into the default recovery and I have the option to “Apply Update.zip from external storage” but the phone will not see an SD card, I also have an option to “apply update.zip from cache” then I see a lost+fount and recovery directory but I don’t know how to get my update.zip to this folder?
You can try downloading one of agat's ics kernels and flashing it through mobile Odin. You don't need USB for that. If that works then download a rom from xda not some random one you found on the internet, put it in the internal storage and flash from agat's recovery. May not work can't say 100%

Never mind my original post, I missed a sentence in the op..
it does require root access
i can boot into download mode, the OS installed has no USB support so oden does not see the phone.

Yeah, that's what confuses me. USB support in Odin Download mode of the phone, which I thought was driven by Kernel, not rom, leaves me to wonder if he flashed the international kernel.
Or I thought..
But it's odd you get the rom to boot and all of that is broke..

I wonder if you can get to the playstore and download supersu, if that wouldn't be a root method? Total shot in the dark since I haven't followed Chainfires SU thread that close. :edit: Doesn't look like it would work. :/
I for sure can not get access to the play store i can download APK files and move them to this phone via bluetooth but with out root access supersu will not work..
Hmm. So the only options in recovery is externel SD and cache? You may be sol. You can try downloading agats kernel in
Zip format and putting in the internal storage and pray it works. Unless one of the e4gt gurus knows another way

Unless you can push recoveries through the bootloader as an img like HTC phones but with recoveries tied to the kernel I doubt it unless its possible to unpack the kernel and just pull the recovery. But that's far beyond me.

what is "agats kernel" and i dont think there is away to flash it with the stick recovery?
Agat is a developer here for the e4gt. You can find his kernels in the kernel repository thread in the Android development sub forum

Lol. Happy new year! :beer:
Transmitted from another galaxy with a Jellybean infused P-5113 full of Unicorn porn.
First of all, to make it totally clear how noob Im at this... I dont even know if this post goes in this section, so feel free to move it wherever fits best.
Second, excuse my english, its not my first language so ill try my best to explain what I did
Last but not least, thanks to anyone who takes the time to read this post and tries to help me.
So, I finally felt courageous enough to try a non-stock ROM.
The first thing I did was search for a rooting guide for the Glide on the forums. And I found one that seemed pretty straight forward. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1378082). I downloaded Odin, the CarrierIQ free kernel, started the phone on download mode, started Odin, PDA the kernel file... and when the phne rebooted it got stuck on the samsung sign.
I think my problem is that the guide was old and for GB devices. I was running the stock ICS.
After that, I downloaded from samfirmware the ICS file (is it the kernel or the rom? <-yes, thats how of a noob i am). Tried to use odin with it, but it gets stuck after a couple of mins.
After searching for a while, I found on another forum that it says that I need to downgrade back to GB, and said to install CWM Recovery (I installed it -v5.0.2.7-). And now im downloading the inception ROM (the same post on that forum said to downgrade using that ROM). Since the download is really slow, Im writing here to see if someone knows what happened and how to fix it.
Thanks!

Hi, thanks for your reply.
I downloaded the Stock Kernel but cant seem to install it. Im using CWM and trying to install from SDCard, but it only shows me the internal memory from the phone, not my SD. I already formatted it in FAT32 format. Same results.
Can I do this via Odin? Any idea why my SD isnt showing?

Not sure about cwmr 5 but in ver 6 (touch) you can mount the internal memory, use your usb cable and transfer the zip to the phone with your pc. UN-mount and disconnect the cable and then you should be able to find the file to flash!

Do you have a link for it? The dropbox one I found isnt working... dont know if the CWM is specific for each device, i found others on google, but since they are on another devices forums, I dont know if it will work with my glide....
Thanks for the help....
The other thing you can do is download the leaked ics that it's a Odin one click file that will flash the kernel and boot loader, should get your phone booted back into stock ics where you can get a fresh start. I'd recommend going to Thegreatergood's LiteRom ver 4 or 5 afterwords. At least until Dman gets cm10 going!

Thanks! No, the link is not working (too much traffic for DropBox), so if you have it, i would really appreciate it.
Also, can you point me into the Odin compatible ROM... I downloaded the LiteRom and Kernel, but both are zips, and cant use them with Odin.
ok here is the CWMR v6 its in a zip file. just unzip to your desktop, the tar.md5 file is useable in the pda mode for odin. just follow the guide listed in the CWMR 6 thread.

I would also suggest making a backup if the /efs folder on your phone. that folder contains all the imei information that identifies you device to the networks. there is a thread in another forum that uses a tool to easily make a backup and gives the ability to restore! I have never had to use it to restore, but there have been reports on rare occasions where others have lost that information and the imei numbers turned to all "0's" I'm also not sure that you can use the tool until the phone is booted up. here is a link to that thread...

that's great, you might consider making a nand backup using the recovery and also once rooted, use titanium backup!
Well Im finally using the literom and its great. Cwm6 didnt read my sd card, but it allowed me to mount my phone as a drive on my pc, so i made a folder and copied the zips there, and installed from there.
I will try the backup thing later. Im so glad to have the keyboard backlight back!
I was really frustrated yesterday. I have a lot of experience with computers, but not that much with android phones. It was quite an experience.
Thanks again.

I am unfortunately stuck in the same position at the moment. I stupidly followed the root guide thinking it'd work for ICS and was horribly wrong.
My phone is now also stuck at the Samsung logo and is driving me crazy. Can you give me some instructions on what you did to restore back to GB? Thanks in advance.

Get in recovery and make a nandroid backup. You can also use Titanium Backup to backup all your apps and data. You'll have to made a copy of those files on your pc to get them back once your phone is back.
You'll have to reset the flash counter (while you're rooted), flash stock firmware with Odin (can be found in the Dev section) and factory reset in recovery.
Also, backup your pics and such (DCIM folder) to your pc if you wanna keep them.
Last thing, take time to search next time it has been covered quite a few times.

Hey thank you guys! I haven't started this yet but when i tried to use mobile odin to flash to stock, my phone would bootloop. Do you think that will happen again if i try this? Is it mobile odin or?
Depends really on several factors. Are you able to get into stock recovery and do a factory reset in there ? Sometimes helps after flashing stock in odin

Hednik is right. If you've accomplished a successful odin flash (no errors) go ahead and wipe data/cache in recovery. After flashing stock in odin, it is common for phones to bootloop or stick at the samsung logo. A wipe usually resolves this

When im in the bootloop I have no stock recovery! Like if i held my home and up volume it would do nothing but bootloop

If in a bootloop pull the battery and try to get into recovery. I guess I am confused...are you still on CM10 ? Have to flashed stock recovery yet ?
You said you microUSB port does work so getting download mode might be an issue but it you bootloop you should be able to get into stock recovery. Tell us that you have done already so far and where you are

Triangle away then unroot then delete any files that might suggest you've been modifying your device.

Hello I tried to flash pure stock then recovery per instructions and now my t999l is stuck on android system recovery can someone plz tell me if I have bricked my phone crying hard right now
In recovery, factory reset. Then reboot and it should work fine.
Stock recovery will wipe your internal sdcard.

Post is difficult to decipher, but I take it that the stock recovery is overwriting his custom recovery... but then the rest of the post doesn't make any sense. Needs clarification.

Mr. Doc I so appreciate you!!! First time posting to thread and Im grateful of your timely response. Let me just tell you exactly whats going on
my phone is in the android system recovery what I am seeing is green android man with a red warning over top of it. it will not let me do anything and I see a message saying "MANUAL MODE" successfully applied multi CSC. It won't connect to ODIN OR Kies Im so scared that I have ruined my phone crying very hard
Odin doesn't work unless you're in download mode.
What happens when you reboot? If it takes you to recovery, boot into download mode (power+vol down+home) and flash a stock image.

Also this happened after I flashed the pure stock then I flashed the recovery and the phone automatically went to what I have explained in prior post
When the phone is recovery it doesn't let me do anything factory/reset or anything and when i put in download mode it doesn't connect to ODIN
What rom were you previously using? And you do have a T999L right? You won't be able odin flash any stock firmware because there isn't any.
Try again to get into download mode. If you can boot recovery you should be able to get there too I'd imagine.
Hold volume down and home while powering up.
If you can do this, odin flash either cwm from aerowinders sig, or twrp from mine. Then reflash whichever rom you were running before trying the pure stock rom.

Sorry bout that.
It sounds like he was on another rom and recovery and tried to flash back to stock.
Am I correct?

Hello I'm a she lol but what originally happened was I rooted phone through Odin. Then when I looked in Twrp and cwm it kept saying i had no recovery image. I went through thread on here and saw someone with same issue and follow Mr. Doc's instructions pertaining to the pure stock and recovery and this is where i landed. Im in download mode so yes i see my phone is not ruined lol I just need the file Mr. Doc is telling me about to reflash because im now connected to odin. I had to use another computer. I greatly appreciate all the time taken to help me get my phone back to working order. Since I am new I need to find the place where I can give a lot of Kudos to mr doc and his team now all i need is where to i go for mr doc file
In my signature, click Recoveries. Then in the twrp folder download version 2.5.0.0. Get the one that's a .tar.
Then once connected to odin, click the PDA button and select the tar file you just downloaded. Then click start.
Once done it should auto reboot. Now reboot into recovery and try doing a factory reset there.
If you still can't boot after that, flash the other, deodexed rom from my T999L thread.
I've got to go for a bit but will try to jump back on soon to see how you're doing.
Sorry bout the he/she thing!

I just want to thank Mr. Doc and all who are working very hard to create roms for t999L. I had att s3 on tmobile network and got my phone exactly the way i wanted it when my son comes in the house with a tmobile s3 and wanted to swtich with me because he didn't want the color he got (white lol i had red) however I didn't know this phone was very new and the only thing I could do is root lol. I'm waiting patiently because I really love the LIquidsmooth rom so on that note Mr. Doc and team again I thank you for all your hard work!

Mr. Doc what I was originally trying to accomplish was creating a recovery for the phone. I think my phone is only rooted and I have no recovery or so i think for the phone. Can you help me understand lol. I know cwm is not available yet at least it wasn't couple days ago.

Mr. Doc when I go into goo.im it tells me in order to flash roms i need an open recovery scrip compatible recovery then it says it can find one for me thats where im lost and getting confused about whether i have a recovery on the phone. but if im right that means i can't right?
Neither CWM or TWRP have added support yet, though it should be as simple as asking. Ill try to contract them in a bit.
You can manually install any of the latest recoveries for the T999 though. They have been confirmed working by several people.
Are you familiar with Odin? I suggest going to the Recoveries link in my sig and get TWRP version 2.5.0.0. The one you want has the .tar extension.
Then flash that in Odin.
If you aren't comfortable with Odin I can tell you another way using terminal emulator.
Your phone does currently have a recovery, but unless you've installed a custom one its still stock.
Also, you can flash any of the Roms posted for the T999. If the rom doesn't include a kernel, and it touchwiz based, you can flash one of the kernels in my T999L thread in development section. I'd try the MD5 kernel first so its matched with the Touchwiz rom you choose. (If you flash CM or AOSP based roms, do not use the kernels I just mentioned).
Hope that helps!

I used the Toolkit to flash mine: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746682
Choose Device option 62 and then Flash custom recovery. It will automate the ODIN install if you are not familiar.

I am familiar with Odin i used that to get me up and running again using the sig you just mentioned. If I'm understanding you correctly you're saying I can flash a t999 rom to my t999L but use a different kernel? Also am I flashing the rom using Odin and if so do I use the same method to flash kernel? I think Im getting a clear understanding because I thought I could only root thorugh odin but install roms through cwm and twrp lol and basically I can use Odin to do it all right? I want to make sure I don't have to bother you all the time lol I should have kept my darn att s3!! thanks again Mr. Doc you truly rock!!!!
