I messed up... - Fascinate General

I forgot to wipe voodoo out before updating and now it's stuck in a loop of data not wiped. I'm now stuck in an endless loop of "wipe_data failed'. Any ideas?

Sorry about it being in the wrong section and thank you for the link, I will try it... okay it gets stuck at factoryfs.rfs, also the file I'm fairly sure I need is DI01package3.tar.md5 but Adryln's web host is down. Does anyone else have it?

[Q] Im completely lost

i've used the search, i've been on a bunch of forums. Im going crazy.
im new at this.
So im running a fascinate. I just rooted it. I have rom manager, but everytime i try and download a kernel or theme or rom it says E:cannot do something blah blah.
i've heard i have to flash with odin, but i have no idea what that is.
Im on DI01. HALP
You need to go to a thread on clockwork mod recovery. Read that and install the necessary parts then it will work.
Happy hunting

If you look up at the roll up sticky at the top, there's a link inside to clockwork recovery odin flash. that's what you need.
so i went to that thread and found the thread, but all the odin files are dead, so i cant download odin to be able to get into dl mode to flash via pda or whatever

Continuum stock rom image

Does a stock rom image for the continuum exist that can be flashed with Odin and not CWM? I dont think my phone is bricked cause I can get into the download and recovery screens. I just cant do anything from the recovery screen its stuck.
Im either gonna fix this or smash this phone to pieces. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Lol, chill... I'll go on my computer now and share the link with you xP
Sent from my SCH-I400 using XDA Premium App
Ok so I might not smash it but boy is this frustrating.
Thanks for your help lol =)))
Ive done some extensive searching and I havent found a single stock continuum rom for odin anywhere. So if you could create one or point me in the direction of where I could download one I would appreciate that.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=967165
Check that out.... Flash with Odin.. Then find (in the Continuum Android Development section) the DL17 update zip, and put that on your sdcard (named update.zip)...
Then you should be good to go...
However, i highly suggest you getting CWM working... Recovering is a lot easier with it... If you are having difficulty go log onto the IRC (http://webchat.freenode.net/) with the #Samsung-Continuum and i will help you out
You are my effin hero... All I needed was the kernel and it fired right up. Ill be keeping these files close cause Im sure Ill need them again.
Thank you!!!!
Justin
Lmao, no problem man.. haha.. Thank imnuts too for all of his development
BTW: If you stop by the IRC i will help you get cwm up and working.. Then you can flash themes, make backups, and flash my awesome Softkey Modifications
Any idea why I cant access data? Im on the phone with verizon but still no luck..
Also cant access the sd card from my pc and wifi on the phone will not connect..
Verizon is stumped they told me to take it back to the store for a replacement..
What a long day lol =)
Also voice service works I can make calls and send/receive text messages just no data. No 3g indicator.
Nevermind I got it figured out.. Everything is running normally with the DL17 clean rom.
Thanks again

Warning about ODIN Packages and Such

I have heard of a lot of reports from people that loose functionality of their radio and even more drastic problems after flashing some ODIN packages...
Now, i don't know which ODIN package is responsible, i know that bubby323 did make a faulty package, somewhere down the line..
ODIN is a last resort... Us here can get you up and working most of the time without even having to open up... ClockWorkRecovery is our friend
If you absolutely need to ODIN, What i suggest is going into the package with 7-zip, and checking whether or not there is a modem file... if there is, delete it... That's just my advise
Also, i have had a couple of reports of people getting fried from with CWM.... As of right now, i would tread lightly in there.... Backups and Restores should be fine, but don't do anything crazy in there If you do need to do anything does not require edify (3.0+) scripting, i suggest using the blue recovery...
This is all just my own personal opinions and such, do whatever you want
Thank you for the warning

Unlocked bootloader, 2.3.6, want to relock and go to stock, sbf?

I just wanted to know, I unlocked the bootloader on my atrix 4G on 2.3.6 but I'm having random restarts and I just wanna revert back to stock and see if that will fix it. Do I just find and flash the 2.3.6 sbf via rsd? Any help is greatly appreciated, I've spent hours looking for an answer but no one seems to know or want to help.

Flash a fruit cake if you can find a link for it since they are all dead and that will get you to stock but you will still be unlocked.

That's another problem, with all the links dead I can't find anything. Idc about being unlocked forever, as long as I can hopefully flash something to make this phone stop restarting by itself.

That's basically just flashing 2.3.6 sbf through rsd, if someone else can confirm that this works then I will give it a whirl.
Sent from my MB865 using xda premium
there's no known way to "relock" the bootloader,the only thing available is that you won't see the "unlocked" at the top,but bootloader still will be unlocked.
You could have just spent a couple of minutes and looked through the threads.

I've spent days looking for an answer but always failed to find exactly what I needed. so call me dumb or a noob, but everything I found had dead links. thanks a lot for the help though
Well, I can help you out finding things if links are broken. I was mainly commenting on the discussion of using RSD but if you are having issues with dead-end links I can look around as well. Can you be more specific in what you're needing? Did you want "Factory"-stock or stock as in just back to Blur? Have you tried a fruitcake?

I found the 2.3.6 stock sbf, I wanted to get as stock as possible to see if it would fix whatever was wrong with it. It hasn't restarted yet, so I just have my fingers crossed
Sent from my MB865 using xda premium
I did the same thing. I kept having Sleep Of Death and random reboots, so I flashed the 4.5.141 sbf. Everything was fine. If I do the unlock with pudding the SODs return. I don't like the stock ROM and Motoblur, but I can't flash anything via fastboot only after I do the unlock procedure, even if it says I'm already unlocked at the end. Any help would be appreciated.

I unlocked on 2.3.6 with the unlock tool, and yea those sleeps of death were a pain in the a**. Seems to have gone away after flashing the sbf, one question though, can I reflash cwm through ROM manager and try to install a different ROM still (since it should still be unlocked?)

When you do fastboot can you keep scrolling down to select android recovery? You have to press volume up upon seeing android recovery. Just wanna make sure, Idk your level of android savvy so don't take offense lol

the android with the exclamation mark is the stock recovery as far as i know
From what I have seen in the forums, when flashing the SBF you have to, at the very least, redo the fastboot commands for unlocking > "fastboot oem unlock". I have used RSD three times and I always just re-flashed pudding. Whether or not "pudding" is necessary to run the commands I have no idea.

Ask for help - I gave up that I really can't figure out how to update my ROM......

Dear bros, I am really frustrated since it's been months since I had this robot down error when I tried to upgrade my rom via OTA.
I am stil using the original 4.1.2 and every time I got OTA for 4.2.2, I had this error. I read many posts and I understand there's different ways to fix the problem but I didn't manage to success. Could someone read the attached error information and kindly let me know what should I do?
Really appreciate for the help in advance.

Unfortunately I don't think updating CWM will help, I suggest you try to install TWRP, flash the ROM, then re-install CWM if CWM is your favorite (or you have CWM backups) but yeah, TWRP is your best bet right now.

If you want to update to 4.3 get the images for your device from here https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images, uncompress and run the flash all scrip inside. Be sure to backup your d data as you will lose all of it (including internal sd).
This will update your hboot and radio to the latest version.
