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

oh thanks for the link. that looks like its going to work, but when i get to the little shovel triangle that says 'downloading do not turn off target'
my phone doesnt show up in odin
edit: phone showed up, but now its stuck halfway through the 'kernel' the first box in odin. know how long it should take?
It only took me like fifteen seconds...

Did you use CWMrecovery.tar with odin, or some other file?

I was able to get the phone into download mode. I assume there is something I am able to do with odin to get this working again, not sure what. Can I get some help?
You'll need to give little more information... What did you do prior to this? What build/baseband/ROM are you on? Details.

I'm currently on EB01 with superclean v2.3 nonvoodoo. I was trying to get bln working and I must have flashed the wrong kernel to the phone. I was under the assumption that the kernel worked on all phone models. I have found this link here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=867648 which is the stock.tar file. I assume pushing that to the phone using odin will return me to stock?
BLN support doesn't exist yet for 2.2 on the fascinate, since we don't have the kernel source to make custom kernels.
Can you boot into CWM? If so, you can just flash the eb01 kernel and that should fix it. Otherwise, flash back to stock and start over
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
That would explain where I went wrong.
I either can't boot to CWM or I am doing it wrong. I thought it was hold volume+ power and home.
Thanks for the help btw
So I was able to get it to boot to recovery. Does that mean I can use odin and just flash EB01?
You don't need to odin the whole package, just flash the kernel with cwm. That way you don't have to start from scratch, unless you want to

what exactly did u do? because my phone is doing the exact same thing and i keep trying different things but nothing....
I have dl30 installed, so the phone is rooted, at least theoretically. it also means I have clockwork installed. I'm trying to go to eb01, but odin won't flash the modem to my phone. it gets stuck at setup connection... any ideas?
There is a section especially for this. You should really search first. Its stickied at the top.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
no, there isn't a section for help with odin. I looked in the stickied thread, and found no odin help.
Try flashing adrynalyns di01 package, this should get you clean and back to stock. Then try the eb01

Jaden, Odin back to stock (look in the Noob guide by S14274N) it has everything you need, Once you are in stock , then root the phone (use superoneclick, it is easy), then download Rom manager, then you will go back into download hit update packages and it will be rooted, From there you can flash any rom you want. Your phone is ok, you need just to go into Download and Odin back to stock first.
You probably can just restart your phone, don't think any changes were even made...long press the power button until it restarts.
Hahaha no offense and not trying to troll but guys please ODIN before any flash of rom, kernel, mod,theme, anything. That way you dont flip out when **** goes wrong. I did,so do many other flashers, and so should you pr anybody else. Also, do a backup with recovery before flashing....

Yeah its not really necessary, I think the last time I used ODIN was before flashing the Nero beta. It will keep things fresh and mostly issue free, but if you know what you're doing you really shouldn't have to do it for every flash.
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

Lol, with Nandroid backup, it makes a compleeeete backup of everything.... Which means it backs up your email logins, facebook logins, GOOGLE logins, everything... Which means they could buy apps on the market using your account..... Not good, lol..

oh ok, well either way i did the cwm before i entered in my information on the phone, but i see what you mean..give me a break i just woke up..lol, but do you think flashing clean roms and kernels might help him?
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
