EZbase, is a fully deodexed and zipaligned pre rooted odin / heimdall image for people wanting to move from stock ROM's to custom ROM's. It used by a lot of people for a recovery image if it all goes wrong, simply flash this and you on a stock Samsung image with root and 2e recovery.
Still testing the new recovery & kernel so attached is a copy of EZbase with stock CWM Recovery, until the new recovery has been 100% tested!

This is a Step by Step guide how to flash EZbase to your Samsung Galaxy S.​
There are lots of different ways to flash ROMs to your Samsung Galaxy S, Personally I use heimdall but thats because I use *nix. I find this one to be easiest and fastest for windows users.
If you complete this guide there the worlds your oyster, simply copy different mods/ROMs to the SD Card and flash directly from there going back to your base at any time should you need to revert back.
If you have any issues what so ever, the best place to begin is a clean EZbase flash.
NOTE: No root or anything is required, you can simply do this on a stock Samsung ROM.

Android Debug Bridge (a.k.a. adb) - http://nfye.eu/EZbase/i9000/adb.zip
Download all the EZOdin, EZbase CSC, PDA, PHONE and PIT if you do not have Samsung Kies installed, The Samsung USB Drivers will be required to. For simplicity sake place all the files into a single directory e.g. c:\toolkit\ however they can be placed where you like, hopefully in the future I might get all the requirements into an installer.
If you do not have Samsung Kies installed please install the Samsung USB Drivers and make sure your device is recognised by the OS. Once all the pre requisites have been fulfilled, then please continue to Step One or Step Two. If Samsung Kies is used please make sure you kill all Samsung Kies related services that are running (kies, tray agent, etc.)
Check that your phone has sufficient power, unplug your phone if it is plugged into USB or wall charger. Type *#0228# in to the dialler and check Voltage is at least 3800(mV).
Flash EZbase
Repartition is not mandatory, but it does not hurt to repartition the phone.
Start Phone in Download Mode (No Cable Attached)
Open EZOdin.
- Check Re-Partition
- Select EZbase.pit as PIT
- Select EZbase-PDA-XWJS3.tar.md5 as PDA
- Select EZbase-PHONE-XXJVE.tar.md5 as PHONE
- Select EZbase-CSC-XXJV1.tar.md5 as CSC
Connect Phone with USB Cable - Once ID:COM is yellow you are safe to continue.
Select Start
Complete, now wait for your phone to fully start-up before you continue with anything.
Install Custom ROM
Copy the ROM onto the Internal SD Card. This can be done via adb or placing your phone in USB debug mode and mounting the USB as storage.
Reboot the phone in recovery mode
Select "Install ZIP File"
Select "choose zip from sdcard"
Select "insanity-0.x.x.zip"
Select "Yes - Install"
Wait a while it installs the new ROM.
Select "Reboot Phone"
NOTE: As this is a de-odex`d ROM, First boot will take some time.
Other Information
ADB - Android Debug Bridge
To use the Android Debug Bridge you need to enable Debugging Mode first. Once enabled you will be able to use ADB and do a number of things.
Enable Debugging Mode
Press "Menu"
Select "Settings"
Select "Applications"
Select "Development"
Check "USB debugging"
Select "Yes"
Connect the phone to the USB cable and plug the other end directly into the PC.
NOTE: The computer should start installing the necessary ADB drivers. A total of three devices will be installed (Samsung Android Composite ADB Interface, Samsung Android USB Modem, Samsung USB Composite Device.
You should also now see two icons in the notification area.
Mass Storage
It is possible to mount the internal SD and microSD card as storage on your local pc, this is useful if you do not wish to use adb to copy files around.
If you wish to use your device as Mass Storage:
Pull down the notification area
Select "USB connected"
Select "Connect USB storage"
You should now be able to see your device in explorer
You should always safely eject the storage
Select "Turn Off"

$ su (a superuser request will be displayed on the phone screen, accept it).
# dd if=/dev/block/bml1 of=/sdcard/bml1.dump
# exit
C:\adb pull /sdcard/bml1.dump
Open the bml1.dump file with XVI32.
- Search (in ASCII Mode) for OFNI.
If the block reads "[email protected]" just follow the tutorial below, as it is safe to fix.
NOTE: If it reads "x0" then STOP as this FiX will BRICK your phone if applied.
Open EZOdin

It was ready a while back, we was about to do it and then a new firware came out and it got put on the back burner
My phone was on 6.6 but as it needed testing I redid it as per the written instructions just so we knew it worked 100%
IF people follow the guide then they SHOULD get a 100% working insanity rom with no hassle.. (we live in hope )
TrOjAn

Thanks for this, it's a nice initiative. I've been doing the same, just with different files from samfirmwares + I've needed to install a kernel to get easy access to root + cwm so this lets me skip that part
One thing though, you might want to either put this in your guide, or alternatively modify the app, but that Odin you have is version 1.7.. which has given me trouble (Windows 7, 32bit) in the past. Odin 1.82 works fine so just as a tip for people who might have problems getting odin to work
Aside from that this is a great idea!

odin either not connecting or just standing there doing nothing, never found out why but after using 1.82 its worked fine so I never felt like going back
and your files work with the standard odin anyway so it's not a big deal

We try ROOT through this process and believe that you can try too. So I do not have these devices, and you must read a lot before making a decision. Before any procedure must have stock ROM or at least a backup of it.
BLU Dash 4.0 has [Chipset Qualcomm MSM8225 Snapdragon]. Furthermore, this procedure Super_Su did not work for with the original recovery BLU VIVO 4.3 ROM JB 4.1.1. With recovery original it says "Installation aborted".

What system you are using Win XP/Vista/7/8?
I'll pass the correct procedures to install the drivers:
On the computer:
Go to the Drivers folder and run "InstallDriver" (for the file I'm sending you).
On your device:
Connect the device to your computer, go to Settings, Options programmer, Activate and check "USB Debugging" and press OK.
On your computer:
1 - Go to device manager, click on unknown device or wrongly recognized (MT65XX Preloader);
2 - MT65XX Preloader updating drivers, click browse for driver software on this computer;
3 - Type of Device, click Show All, and then click Have Disk and browse to the folder "Driver\ADB" and select the file [android_winusb.inf];
See this image for [android_winusb.inf]:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38864558
4 - Select Android Composite ADB Interface;
5 - If message appears, requesting confirmation to install, confirm, appear to Windows Security box, asking if you want to install Google Inc, Select Always Trust and install;
6 - Now just do the procedure in SPFT to put only the recovery (CWMv6).
Remember that with Win7 installations should always be run as administrator!
Check this with @tanmay5 in mmxA110 #38 ------->>>> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2167244&page=4
For Win8 disable UAC:
3. open control panel in win8 the metro you one not classic one. I think u all might be knowing how to go there.
There click on general tab then click - advanced startup n press restart.
then go to troubleshoot option in press option 7 i.e disable driver signature. Thats the most Important step.
4. your pc will get restarted null enter in the in that option.
5. your UAC (User Account Control) must be enabled atleast to the recommended level/2nd one from the top.

This is something related to installing drivers. Another interesting case is USB plug behind the PC.
Check this for more drivers MT6577. Download your version for SO (W8/W7/Vista/XP )--> [TUT] Instructions MTK6577 USB VCOM Driver Installation
I read in other posts that you have Win8 and this is not good. But many friends managed. Read post # 10, disable UAC, see picture of correct installation and try again. See this for correct install drivers: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38864558
Another attempt is to use scatter file this on my forum [TUT] HOW TO INSTALL ROM 4.1.1 JB - BLU VIVO 4.3 D910i. Download the BLU_D910i_V06_GEN_T8113_20130322_CWM.rar, unzip. In SPFT, select only the option [RECOVERY].

You will need the adb driver... since BLU doesn't provide this anywhere you can install it via installing pdanet...

I first installed ADB, then I ran the root script and voila my BLU DASH 4.0 was rooted... took me a while to find this out.. searched everywhere for the correct adb driver...

ROOT in BLU VIVO 4.3 - JB 4.1.1 - without using SPFT
Hello I did otherwise the root device of people who do not know or do not want to use SPFT.
So read the instructions well and be happy. I researched other ways, but just found this one with Chinese software. Remember: It will install an application Chinese. But I made a tutorial that this app can be removed later.

I followed the above instructions, now my phone won't boot. Message was; Installation Aborted. So I re-boot it and got stuck to the "Blu Logo". Any help is greatly appreciated to go back to stock rom (ics).

You're writing in the wrong place. Furthermore, the update should be placed with the original recovery. If you have a BLU VIVO 4.3, then you should not fear anything. So many people make the direct download to phone. This is wrong!
First on the PC and then put the sdcard. It may be that the file you downloaded came with errors.
If you have CWMv6 and backup, is back to normal. If not, try again another update file. If not, put JB version 6 in forum [TUT] HOW TO INSTALL ROM 4.1.1 JB - BLU VIVO 4.3 D910i. Read all the posts and see how to put the JB version 7.
Do not write here again on other matters, that is not the issue ROOT!

You're writing in the wrong place. Furthermore, the update should be placed with the original recovery. If you have a BLU VIVO 4.3, then you should not fear anything. So many people make the direct download to phone. This is wrong!

Great guide, well layout and easy to follow.

Does this method trip the 0x1 Knox flag? if yes, is there any known way to get root on KitKat without tripping the Knox flag?

If you flash a custom recovery, it will trip the Knox counter

^ So yes it will. However, T-Mobile doesn't care that much about it as some of us have found out.
TOTALLY understand if you're unsure about it, and should wait for a method that doesn't trip the knox when rooting. It won't happen tomorrow or the next day, so be patient.

Quick question does this 'Wipe' Your device (Data Partition)? I have used CF-Auto Root in the Past so my Warranty has been tripped, does this cause any issues?

sorry, i know this is going to come off sounding wrong, and really there is no way of asking without it sounding wrong.
Did you read anything on this forum at all?
I spent the better part of yesterday answering and making Q&A threads, and most of the other people have also. I mean seriously people, i'm seeing the same question asked 2 and 3 times on the same page. This how to guide was made because people are refusing to read, and then you guys are not even reading the whole guide. You want quality work, got it, you have questions, got it, and they are all valid questions. But the valid questions have been answered.
There's a update Q&A and update discussion thread in the T-Mobile Note 3 General Section. in the 15 pages each release put out yesterday, there are numerous answers to anything you can think of.
But please search before asking a question.

[HOW TO]Guideline / Install MTK drivers / How to Root / Flash a Rom / IMEI Restore

In this Thread i will explain how to set up MTK drivers and Flashtools.
Guideline:
Post #1 : Set up MTK drivers in Windows 8 / 8.1 / 10
Post #2 : Use Flashtools for MTK Devices
Post #3 : How to Flash Custom Roms / Roms download Guide / How to Root Stock Rom
Post #4 : Windows 10 MTK Drivers installation ( just in case post #1 dont work )
Post #5 : Lost IMEI Backup​
<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
How to Install MTK drivers in Windows 8 / 8.1 / 10
what we need:
MTK Vcom Preloader Driver 2.0
Download : https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24438995911977169
First thing we need is to Disable the Signed Driver verification on Windows :
To disable driver signature verification, we’re going to need to get into the Troubleshooting options from the boot manager.
The easiest way to bring this screen up is using this secret trick.
Hold down the SHIFT key while you click Restart.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Once your computer has rebooted you will be able to choose the Troubleshoot option.
Then head into Advanced options.
Then Startup Settings.
Since we are modifying boot time configuration settings, you will need to restart your Computer one last time.
After restarting your computer a second time,
choose Disable driver signature enforcement from the list by typing the number 7 on your keyboard.
That’s all there is to it. Your PC will then reboot and you will be able to install unsigned drivers.
<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
Now its Time to open SP_Driver_v2.0.zip and start the DriverInstall.exe
it will open the install prompt . Press okay and dont change the installation path
Code:
C: // program files / Mediatek / Driver Package
during the installation it will start the verification window security.
Click on Install this driver software anyway
There will be an Error Message . - We Ignore it !
-Now Open your Device Manager and leave it open.
-Power Off your Phone and connect it with your Pc.
-you will see Under ports ( COM & LPT ) a Preloader unknown device
right click on there and click on Driver update/installation.
-Choose manually search for drivers
-Browse to C:// program files / Mediatek / Driver Package and apply.
-If all went good you have successfully installed the MTK Vcom Drivers. :good:
<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>​

How to Use Flashtools
i use SP_Flash_Tool_Windows_v5.1520.00.000 and never had a problem with it.
Its for most all MTK Phones and for all Elephone Devices
Download Link: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24438995911977217
- Extract the Flashtool zip folder to your Desktop
- Click flash_tool.exe to open the Tool
- You will see two "folder buttons" Download agent and Scatter-loading
- Into Download agent place the MTK_AllInOne_DA.bin file .
its in your Flashtools folder
- Into Scatter-loading place the Scatter.txt
All Stock Roms / Custom Recoverys have one Scatter.txt in their Zip files.
- Make sure that every partition is checked
-IMPORTANT NOW, Flashing Part-
-Power Off your Device!
-Press on the Download Button!
-Connect your Device with PC and wait until all is flashed
-you will see a Green Mark when all is done
-Disconnect your Device and press Power button to Reboot.

How to Install Custom Roms
You don't need to root your phone to use Custom Roms like
Eragon Rom
or
Nexus Rom
because within installation it will get root with SuperSU
P.s: if you run into a problem e.g Bootloop . (newest Rom dont work well with our Custom Roms , related to its Partition.Img)
You could Flash the Stock ROM 02150725 to solve it
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Place the Rom.Zip into your Internal or External Sdcard
2. If you are on Stock Rom just Flash a Custom Recovery
Best Recovery without any bug is Philz v2 but you can also use Twrp Recovery
3. Hold Vol+ and Power simultaneously
you will get into the Bootloader Menu
4. Navigate with Vol+ to Recovery and apply with Vol-
5. In Recovery perform a Fullwipe , wipe System , Data , Cache , Dalvik
(In Philz Recovery wipe "clean to install a new rom"
In TWRP Recovery Wipe /advanced Wipe /wipe System,Data,Cache,dalvik)
6. Install the Rom.Zip located in your Sdcard
7. Reboot

Windows 10 MTK VCOM USB Drivers for 32 & 64 bit + Driver install tutorial
To determine the version of Windows 10 that you have (32 bit or 64 bit):
- Right-click on Start then click on System
- In the System window that opens, in System section, you will find your version of Windows next to System type
To disable Windows 10 64 bit driver signature enforcement:
- On your 64 bit Windows 10 desktop click on Start then on Settings
- Click on Update & security then in the left pane click on Recovery
- Under Advanced startup click on Restart now button
- Click on Troubleshoot then on Advanced options
- Click on Startup Settings then on Restart button
- The computer will restart with the Startup Settings screen
- To disable the driver signature enforcement until next restart press on number key 7 or F7 on your keyboard.
- After restart you can proceed with the unsigned MTK drivers installation for your 64 bit Windows
- After you install the unsigned drivers, to use them again in the future, you have to repeat this procedure
To install the MTK VCOM USB Drivers on 32 & 64 bit Windows 10:
- Download the drivers *.zip archive and extract the folder from inside on to the desktop:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24269982087012126
Right-click on Start then click on Device Manager
In the Device Manager Window click on the first item – your computer name
Click on Action then Add legacy hardware
On the Welcome to the Add hardware Wizard window click on Next button
Select Install the hardware that I manually select from a list (Advanced) and then click on Next button
Click on Show All Devices then on Next button
In the Add Hardware window click on Have Disk… button
In the Install From Disk windows click on Browse… button
In the next window – Locate file – browse for the folder that you have extracted on the desktop at the beginning
Select the version of the driver according to your Windows 10 version – x64 for 64 bit and x86 for 32 bit and click Open button
Click the OK button to load the driver
From the list of drivers select MTK USB Port and click on Next button
If a red warning window will open, click on Install this driver software anyway
This action will add the following drivers in to the operating system:
- MediaTek DA USB VCOM Port
- MediaTek PreLoader USB VCOM Port – for transferring the firmware to your device
- MTK USB DEBUG Port
- MTK USB Modem Port
- MTK USB port – for transfering PreLoader to your device (and recovery in case of bad or corrupt firmware)
Now we need to remove the device that we have installed but leave the drivers in the operating system.
To do that, in the Device Manager window we expand Ports (COM & LPT) section
Right-click and click Uninstall on the MTK USB Port
- In the Confirm Device Uninstall window make sure that the box Delete the driver software for this device is empty
- You need to leave the drivers in the operating system and only remove the device that you added
- Click on the OK button to finalise
Now, when you will connect your turned off MTK device to the Windows 10 computer by USB, the device will be recognized either trough a MediaTek Preloader USB VCOM Port interface or as a MTK USB port if it is bricked or it has bad/corrupt firmware. The SP Flash Tool will be able to transfer the firmware to your device trough this interfaces. Make sure you connect the device after you press the Download button in SP Flash Tool, as the communication interface will only be alive for 2 seconds if no data is being sent.

Lost IMEI Restore
A common problem many face in their phone is loss of IMEI no. This is results in no network detection by your phone. U can come to know you have lost your IMEI by checking Settings->About phone->Phone information. There under IMEI section you won’t be finding your mobile IMEI numbers displayed.
Don’t worry you can restore your IMEI’s. Just follow this guide and you will be able to restore your IMEI. I will split the tutorial into two parts.
BACKING IMEI :
-First step before performing all these things is that your phone should be rooted.
When your phone is in normal state with everything functioning install Root explorer and navigate to the below location
Code:
>ROOT>DATA>NVRAM>MD>NVRAM>NVD_IMEI>MP0B_001
-Now copy this MP0b_001 file to your SD card or PC whichever place you feel the file we be safer.
-Now download MTK Droid tools .
-Now extract the zip file and open the MTK droid tools exe file.
-Now in your phone turn on USB Debugging by going to Settings->About phone-> Developer options and there turn on USB debugging.
-Now connect your phone and MTK droid tools should be able to detect your phone. U should see a window like this appearing after your
phone has been detected.
-Now press the ROOT button present in lower right corner. When it asks Supersu grant in your mobile click allow. After MTK droid gets
access u should see a green colour box appearing in the lower left corner which means u have correctly granted access to MTK droid.
-Now click on the IMEI/Nvram tab. A window should open and click backup NVRAM and MTK droid tools would take a backup of NVram in
its folder.
RESTORING IMEI :
-Now when you lose IMEI first try this method. Now take the MPDB_001 file which you took backup at the first step and navigate through
Root explorer to this location ->ROOT->DATA->NVRAM->MD->NVRAM->NVD_IMEI.
-Now paste that file and replace the one present there. Set the permissions for that file as RWER-ER-E. Now reboot your phone and you
should be able to get your IMEI back.
If you still haven’t got IMEI open MTK droid tools and connect your phone and press ROOT again and give MTK droid tools root access.
-Now click on IMEI/Nvram tab and select Restore option and restore the NVram backup which you took earlier. Now reboot your phone and
you should be able to get your IMEI.
Extreme method :
-After performing all the above if you haven’t still got IMEI. Now switch off your phone and open SP Tools and connect your phone.
Click on format and format your whole phone. ( This wipes whole of the phone including NVram region ).
-Now flash stock ROM through SP Tools and after it completes start up your phone. ( Don’t be surprised. Your IMEI will still be in lost state
only ). Now root your phone.
-After successful rooting now connect your phone to MTK Droid tools and again press ROOT button and grant root access to MTK Droid
tools. Now click on IMEI/NVram tab.
-Now as you see in the image above you can see two boxes IMEI1 and IMEI 2. Now enter your device IMEI numbers manually in those two
boxes.( You can get your IMEI no’s from your phone box ). Now click replace IMEI. Now reboot your phone and you should be definitely able
to get your IMEI restored.

Thanks for this great work.
And for all the Linux Users out there. SPFlashtool also work perfekt with x86-64 Linux distros.
The most anoying point and greatest drawback is, that with newer Ubuntu based distros like Mint, since 14.04, the builtin modem-manager don't like Mediatek, so you have to blacklist Mediatek in the udev rules.
How this will done, is written in that great tutorial by Miss Montage.

Please note neither the name of the IMEI file nor its position seem to be constant, but may vary from one Stock ROM version to another.
In my case (Stock Rom version 20151203) it took me some time to find a file named "MP0B_001" within the following location:
/nvdata/md/NVRAM/NVD_IMEI
Maybe the easiest way to find the IMEI file is to search for the keyword "NVD_IMEI" within some root file manager as this does not seem to change.

@skeleton1911 I'm having problems with MTK DROID TOOLS, it won't detect my elephone p8000.
I was wondering can you help me with this?

you want to restore your imei?
do this: it just takes a minute
You can solve your imei problem with this "MTK Engineering Mode" from playstore.
You open the app and go to: MTK Settings, Connectivity, CDS Information, Radio Information, Phone 1.
Here you have at the top "AT+". here you complete to >>AT+EGMR=1,7,"123456789012345"<<, of course with your imei, which ist standing on the akku-cover.
Then, very important: You have to put in a space after "AT+", so it looks like >>AT+ EGMR=1,7,"123456789012345"<<
Click "SEND AT COMMAND". Thats it.
For the second imei do the same with >>AT+ EGMR=1,10,"123456789012345"<<

@skeleton1911
I believe that first post need a big refresh.
The new All-In-One Mediatek driver don't need to disable driver signing. and contain both USB ADB and USB preloader driver for Mediatek chips
For the Flashtool version (Windows/Linux) there is a specific thread where you can redirect all user to get latest version of Flashtool program.
