mobile odin is version of odin you can use on your phone to flash tar files it is not a recovery stock roms are usually in a .tar format

Soo if I wanted tto go back to stock. Is using mobile Odin ideal? Stock meaning like no root, no rom, back to factory. I was looking at another thread. Someone was going back to stock to upgrade to jellybean, root it, nandroid, now they have a good fall back to fresh start

Mobile Odin will flash firmware directly from your phone and inject root

Depending what you want you can find it in the 1st or 2nd post:

Those are .exe files... They won't work on mobile odin right???

Mobile Odin says some exe files may work. There's an EG30 factory ROM available, use that and flash EL29. Check the wiki for EG30 Odin.

Then just install the CWM kernel and you are good to go!
Fyi - If you don't like the yellow triangle on boot I'd use Mobile Odin to flash the CWM.

Just an FYI, installing CWM via the Auto Root package in the development sticky also would not trigger the yellow triangle.
Only flashing a kernel/recovery not signed by Samsung using regular ODIN will trigger the yellow triangle.
But wut if I don't have a computer and just want to use mobile odin

What are you trying to accomplish? There's a factory EG30 Tar file for Mobile Odin. It's not rooted but will get you to factory and you can update to EL29 via OTA. If you want to Odin and keep root you'll have to find a rooted ROM tar in one of sfhub's threads. At worst, you'll have to extract individual packets from the exe files or find an individual file in the resource section.

Install EL29 rogue repack with mobile odin. Then flash calkulins rooted EL29 and EL29 modem from CWM.

Alternatively, couldn't he just install the EL29 rogue repack with mobile odin, then restore a GB nandroid if he has one? This would keep him from having to install another rom altogether, and get him back to previous setup

Sure, if there is a nandroid backup that would be quickest to restore rom and user data. Still need to flash the modem as above.

Isn't modem completely independent of ROM and kernel though, so that wouldn't be necessary, unless he really wanted everything back to EL29?

It just depends what you want to restore to. You can run an EL29 ROM with a different modem. If someone says they want to restore back to a previous version, unless they mention otherwise, I give them instructions to restore modem, kernel, and ROM.

[Q] restoring stock rom?

Short and sweet, I'm having trouble restoring the Stock ROM on my phone? I have installed the Ultimatum ROM but following multiple guides (even the one here on XDA that includes a full wipe) doesn't seem to remove it. Am I doing something wrong here?
Everything you need to know is in the first few threads in the Dev section

You need to flash through ODIN while phone is in download mode. You can get the stock .pit and .tar files from the development forums if you look. Then you can restore the stock software and start fresh.

In dev section under sticky..stock rom with root and no trip counter via odin
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
To vanilla stock no root flash stock w/root via Odin, use triangle away to reset binary counter(if tripped) then flash the official UCALG1 ROM via Odin and you should be good to go.

+1 to mobile Odin
Your issue could be one of two things (assuming you have the correct drivers) either the version of Odin you're trying to use is outdated or your usb cable/port may not be functioning properly.
Just to verify, you're powering your phone off, holding power and volume down to enter download mode and selecting the option to flash a custom binary correct?
If yes, try another cable if you have one, or another usb port on your PC to rule out those factors. The yellow com port should light up letting you know you're connected.
Also try a newer version of Odin if you're not already running it.
If all else fails, mobile Odin is definitely worth the money:thumbup::beer:

You use it flash a safe recovery tar file then use that recovery to flash your new ROM and stock kernel.

If you're looking for stock unrooted gb08 you can use the full Tar file, but if you want a rooted custom ROM you need to flash a zip

Odin stock recovery only?

Is there a way I can flash just the stock recovery through Odin without having to flash the entire firmware? I'm currently rooted on the latest firmware with a customer coverage and everytime I reset the counter and reboot it gets set back to tripped. So I want to flash the stock recovery without losing root so I can reset the counter and then flash the entire firmware through odin again so I can send the phone back for exchange.

Pull out recovery.img, TAR it, flash it.
Ok and just converting it to a tar makes it safe to flash? I'veflashed many times but have never created a file to flash

If you download that and get the donation version, it has an option to make tar files. Doesn't matter that the toolkit is for the nexus 10 as far as just making tar files. I've used it to make cwm tars for my S2 and S4.

[Q] Stock rom without a computer

Is there any way to unroot this phone or flash the stock rom, rooted or unrooted, without a computer. The mini usb does not function so anything involving a computer is not an option. I just bought this phone and it came rooted but I need to activate it on my account and the ## codes aren't working

2nd file. Flash with Mobile Odin
Flash the modem in cwm first. Mobile odin wont flash them.

Flashing the modem isn't necessary as the .tar contains the rom, kernel, and modem.

Using Mobile Odin will not flash the modem, that is why patrao said to flash the modem with CWM then use Mobile Odin to flash the tar.

Ah, that's what he meant. I was confused by his post.

Sorry but I haven't had an android phone in a while so I'm a little confused. There are two files when I click on the link do I flash just the tar file or both the exe and tar file? Also where do I find the modem file? Thanks for any replies I have managed to restore the phone to stock and get it working and I am still rooted as well
If you are going to use mobile odin then use the tar. The exe is for your computer. Thr modems can be found in rwilcos website just got to look.
