Hello,
Sorry to ask this question but I am desperate. I installed ryans oclf one click lag fix and everything was fine. accidentally I clicked the kernel portion which I shouldnt have. After I did that, phone wouldnt go pass the reboot section so I decided to do the unbrick instructions using odin.
Everything is fine and finishes the flash but when it reboots, the tombile sign shows up and galaxy s and after awhile the screen would just turn dark but the keys below lights up. I followed the instructions and I donf know why I cant go back to stock.
Please help. Learned my lesson big time.

Im going to help you out on this one, you need to flash this PDA file with odin EUGENE373_SamsungS_Froyo_PDA along with the PIT 512 you should still have from the unbrick instruction odin forum then after you flash those files you need to let it do its thing it will prob take you to recovery just long press the power button and when it turns off put the usb back in the phone to get it into Download mode(just get back into download mode any way you know how) and then follow those instructions you did earlier with the unbrick instructions using odin.
Ok...i will try that right now. I really hope this work.

It should work man, the buttons prob won't work in recovery after you do the first flash so thats why I said to just hold that power down it will power the phone down then plug the usb back in then while holdin the volume up and down then hit power this should get you into download mode then just flash the stock vibrant rom for odin or you could use mini kies and get the Ji6 stock update from samsung

In this forum there is the stickied thread for beginners that links to AndroidCentral directions for a one click method.
I used that to get rooted without any issues.
Then I went to the devoper forum and used the How To guide for getting DL30. That worked with no issues too.
1. You need to upgrade (OTA if possible) to DL09 first.
2. Follow directions exactly as stated.
3. After root, install Titanium Backup. Its not mentioned in these directions but its very helpful and lets you back up specific apps. I only backed up my apps that have specific data or were actualy purchased. I redownloaded others, such as maps, etc.
4. Follow directions exactly as stated and be patient.
Now, the first time I had ran the one click, I got the same 'error'. no worries, just run it again. It took me two times for it to run properly.
Make sure you are following directions and have USB debugging and don't click the notification to start mass storage. Just turn on USB debugging and plug in the phone, then run Odin and files as directed.

Yes. It worked just fine. I think those that had errors maybe had DL09 from this dev site vs the OTA or simply didn't follow the directions perfectly.

ok.. thanks for clearing that up
I had an issue with the one click root.
The phone needed to be power cycled and unplugged from the computer during the first auto-reboot and i had to mount then un-mount the device. The mount and un-mount is on the phone after you plug it back in.
Also, I read somewhere on here that the OTA DL09 was pulled due to the emergency call issue. Not sure how true it is...
And, the froyo update was the first time I rooted and loaded a different OS.
So should I keep trying to root with the one click our should I update to DL09 then one click?

You could root with one click then use Odin to flash the stock DL09 that is here in the forums.
OR, just wait for Verizon to put out their fix and of course the latest update which could just be DL30 or a fixed DL09.
So I just updated my phone with EA28 does any one know what that one does?.....it s from verizon

Since its basically identical to DL09 but with the 911 bug fixed and I was able to one-click root on my DL09 without any issues, I'd say yes.
Just follow the directions in the stickied thread in this forum for "beginners". It links to Android Central. Just create a free account to see the files.

As soon as your phone reboots disconnect it from the USB. Wait for it to boot up then reconnect it to the USB.
That is what I had to do to get the one click to run on DL09.
Hi everyone,
I have a friend who owns a mytouch 4g and he did root the device using instructions on the forum, visionary and then terminal emulator...
Everything was working great.
Then he did something stupid which is follow a youtube video on how to overclock but he ignored the fact that this procedure required running a custom rom on your phone.
This is the youtube link he followed
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=amEwtRSH5ZQ
Now when attempting to turn his phone on it shows Mytouch 4G splash screen then reboots and it keeps doing the same thing over and over
I have a Samsung Vibrant and if something goes wrong I can always use Odin and place the phone in Download mode to bring it back to stock...
Is there such a procedure for the mytouch 4g and can someone provide step by step or point me in the right direction please or is there any other way to get this phone to boot up normally, or revert back to stock?!
I tried searching the forum but it seems to me that everything required the phone being able to boot up normally...
Thank you.
Have you tried taking the battery out for 30 seconds, i have a htc hd2 and how i get back to factory settings on my phone i turn the phone off and it comes back to wnd 2.6. I hope this helps
Isn't hd2 windows mobile?!

Load the PD15IMG on the sdacard and boot into HBoot for a 100% stock restore. Links can be found in the development section. Or flash a new ROM that will replace the kernel. Did he do a nandroid backup?

Thank you! I am doing it as I type this. Watching the progress bar now, at about 1/2 blue....
Hopefully it will work.
Thanks again!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
After it was done it asked if I want to run the update, didn't know what to select so I hit yes, and it seemed to do the same thing all over again but this time after the initial progress bar it actually said updating unzipping and whatever not in like 7 or 8 different steps and then it said press power to reboot.
Did this step revert to stock recovery or is the cwm recovery still intact somewhere?! How would I verify?!

Yup it certainly will. The pd15img file is auto extracting once u load ur bootloader...loading everything by default...so cwm will be gone on ur phone..

If you have a tmobile vibrant, you need to flash the original JDF firmware ... if you gonna flash the KB5 firmware after make sure "re-partition "is not checked off in odin ...You are getting that error cause you are missing some data files that are only in the original firmware...
ive gotten that screen when i flashed without disabling vodoo. i always use the "froyo that does not brick" flash through odin.
as they say!
power off phone
pull out battery
GRAB THIS STUFF : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1047087
turn on odin
attach phone to pc with usb cable
now while holding down both volume buttons put battery back in.
now you should be in download mode and go back to stock with odin from here!
make sure u put the proper .pit and .pda file in there proper places on odin and ur set to go.
Enjoy and also make sure u have the proper samsung drivers
U can buy or make a jig I made one easy and cheap gets in download mode everytime
Oh man, everytime I odin, that screens comes by, flash froyo that doesn't brick by eugene with re-partion check, then flash a stock odin rom with unticked repartition. And there you go, a clean phone. I had to odin last night.

Jig doesn't put the phone into download mode, neither does key combo+ usb+ battery insert. I think I'm screwed, unless there's a way to access a zip file from the external sdcard.

Hey, I'm helping another XDA member with the same exact problem and it took me a long time, but made good progress. He's running froyo now, but can't install apps. So I'll definitely be able to help you with this.

I totally understand. Unplug the battery, take out the sim card, and sd card....leave it alone. PM me so we can set up a time to work on it and I prefer skype because of screen share, it makes it easier for me to show someone what to do.
Hi to all. This is a very simple guide to revert back to the Stock rom that came with your phone.
Odin is not needed, also no special skills needed. All you need is a PC with Samsung Kies installed.
Kies is best to be updated to latest version. latest one is 08-01-2013
So, let's start. If you were rooted and the custom binary counter has increased, please use TriangleAway prior to this guide.
1-) Open up Kies with phone disconnected, but keep it powered up cause you will need it for the serial number.
2-)Navigate here (tools) (picture 1) and select the 3d option (software upgarade and preparation). you will get this Enter GT-N7100 press confirm.
3-) enter your phones serial number(picture 3) wich you can find either under the battery or by navigating to yout phone Settings- About device- Status- Serial
Number. Press confirm. after pressing confirm you will be presented with a dialog which lets you know that the device will be wiped. Press Confirm again.
4-) you will now be presented with the version (picture4, it is for my phone. you will have maybe other) that is the latest for your phone and your serial number. press confirm and wait for the first download (picture5). wait till it finishes.
5-)in the next screen (picture 6) read and select Agree. put your phone in download mode by pressing volume down+ home button+ power on. do not release the buttons till the phone is in the screen that tells about warning. press volume up.
connect phone to PC and press down at Start Update button.
this will take a while to download cause the update is about 1GB.
wait till it finishes and phone boot up.
Set up as usual.
Hope it helps.
Wow, thanks!
I hust have a question about this, for example, if i ever want to rollback to carrier stock ROM, i should follow the steps above? If we do this, are we going to enable OTA carrier updates as long as we don't root the phone, right?
Thanks!

Thanks... This is good to know. Question though... I live in Canada and my device was a UK version that I bought from a store here in Edmonton, Alberta. That being said... Will Kies be able to find my proper STOCK firmware given my location or does it find it based soley on the serial number?
It finds it base on serial number. If is is a UK device it will install the latest one for the specific serial number and UK.
