Post firmware guide please!

Ive seen people talking in complicated language about pit files and the like, but im new to Samsung flashing, so it all makes little sense.
Could someone please post a guide to flashing the tab, and the tools and resources needed!

its the same as flashing samsung galaxy s
but if you are very new to flashing i advice you to keep away from doing anything to the tab now as no firmware is perfectly flashing
i am trying to flash all firmwares available from one week but not able to get success in any firmware

I am new to Sammy flashing. What tools are you housing? Why are others succeeding?

here you can find all the necessary information about flashing and flashing tools
as i said before these are not working other than JHA and JID firmwares
if anyone has successfully flashed other firmwares please post how you did it

I beg to differ - samfirmwares is pretty criptic - they have 4 flashing toos, the filetypes and odin and everything else is not explained in any way.
If youve been flashing sammy stuff for ages it might be easy to plunge in, but for most people its way too arcane...

not to come off as a smartass, but phrases like "Remove the battery, then enter Device into Download Mode again as in step #3. then connect to the PC." really dont fill me with hope...
i would be more comfortable with one of our users posting a guide - its been done for many, many devices here at xda already

exactly what i'm thinking. im not a newbie at flashing and im no expert either but seeing how the tab is a fairly new product, there is not yet a definitive guide into flashing it. i'd probably give it a month or two before custom ROMs are available and the idea of flashing the tab to be more attractive.

I agree too that some kind soul here would post a stickie for us newbies on android. The video on samfirmware or the pdf is really deceiving and do not correspond well. I have been flasing my many Htc wm phones here on xda and have been succesful due to the pain and attention of the senior members guiding us with great step by step instructions including the dos and donts.
my first attemp on the tab failed miserably due to the unavailable information on pit files and reformat partion and this has given me a phobia to redo a second take after coming back with a reflased from samsung sevice centre. Sincerely hope someone can help us.

whats more i cant see myself removing the battery

Yeah... ftgg99... Tmo booklet says "You can not remove the battery."!
Also... I'm new to Android but getting all set to do what I need to do once someone figures out how to get a phone on the thing... thanks to all who are working so hard on that! Activate your paypal buttons!
So, since I'm new... I've been accumulating links and copy/pasting things..
Just next door in the Tab developers forum (p. 2) there is a post called
[HOW-TO] Flash.... (and it has two versions of firmware listed)...
It goes into a lot more detail...
Here's the link to that thread which is most helpful:

Download Mode on Nexus S

Hi ,
I turn on Download mode on my Nexus S .
Odin detected my phone , but I haven't Firmware to upload..
Maybe this method will be help to fast root Nexus S in future ?

The nexus s is already rooted.
And there is no reason to use this ever. (just install the rom through recovery)
unless I am missing something????

My objective when I bought the Nexus and sold my Galaxy S was to remove Odin/Kies from my life
I would like to never hear again these words

Ok , but in my opinion root as Odin is simply I look for Firmware with Polish language , but probably does not exist. In SGS I upload Firmware as Odin and I have Polish language. Now I have Nexus S from USA and it hasn't Polish.

You're not going to get a download mode on this device. I appreciate your dilemma, but 99.9% of us are overjoyed we don't have to deal with that methodology. The less Samsung this phone feels the better.
I would post in the Google forums and see if you can get a Google employee/dev to address your request.

Wrong forum.
Odin is really not that bad. Its a really easy way getting back to stock and makes the device practically not brickable.

The Nexus S is "practically not brickable" as well. Flash a new image via fastboot.
Fastboot just as easy to use as Odin, and in fact easier, since it can be used on any platform (Windows, Mac, Linux) and doesn't require Windows-based buggy software and drivers to talk to the phone.
As a Mac owner, I for one am glad to have no need for Odin any more...
To the original poster looking for Polish...the Nexus S is setup totally different than the SGS line of phones. You're not going to be able to push some currently available SGS Polish enabled ROM to the NS and get it to work.

LOL,
Really dude? Odin is pointless, and certainly isn't simple when you compare it with the mere 5-6 lines of terminal commands required to root your Nexus S. Not to mention there's already a 1-click rooting tool out, so unless ODIN can get you a zero-click root, this is just useless.

There's another thread about this right in this forum...it ends with a post from a guy with only one post on xda that says yes, you can get into DL mode. No one asked for more details there...
I tried a couple of known 3-button combos from other devices, and even a "su reboot download" from the terminal. None of them got me into DLM.

I use connector with resistor 301K to turn on Download Mode.

thanks!
yay! my old 301k is compatible
i had a hunch it had to be it
after all the SNS is part of the Galaxy S family

Odin detect 4 ports when you connect SNS.
Is possible move one file (Polish language pack) from SGS to Nexus S ?

I agree with everyone who dislikes Odin. It's almost a surefire way to brick your damn phone because the app is so unstable! I'm no n00b, but I bricked my Vibrant...twice. Never had an issue via fastboot with my N1 or NS. It's so easy, fast, cross-platform...it's darn near perfect.

Coming from vibrant and plenty of expirience ...Its impossible to brick with Odin and Odin is a no brainer easy to use and very quick to use to flash. But IMO no need for it on NS

Possible but its equally possible that they charge for repairs .No way Kies will install SGS1 firmware .
If OP cannot fix by the normal methods then its worth a shot at service centre .
jje

as I've read in another forum, this leads to a hardware problem, so even the battery is broken.
Samsung knows how bad kies is, so they do not control it in detail.
they try to flash a new rom and when this fails,they send you an new phone.
in worst case, they send you the phone back, not even more.

Here is your problem. It needs to be an 301K resistor.

If it does not turn on at all there's no way they'll know how it died. Just send it for service replacement.

I ve read that the 301k resistance would not work with galaxy S II!
I am sure there is still a hope or solution for the latest samsung technology other than the JIG!!

And this is why you never use a pit or tick repartition.
Get a jig, get into download mode, put a sgs2 pit(repetition) and firmware in.
If the jig won't work, sent it back and hope they don't charge you.

Thanks so much.
I have did this manually and locally but didn't work on my Galaxy S 2!!
I am afraid when I buy this would also nit work!

The phone will be hard bricked with an incorrect PIT file. The good news is I am capable of fixing this if needed. I'm also much faster and simpler to work with than a Samsung Centre... . MOD's I'm simply trying to let the OP know an option if needed...
EDIT. Pm me if you need help...

Man, why don't you make a tutorial of how to do this instead of making bucks over other people's loss?

I think I briked the Galaxy tab 2

I was trying to root the device so i can get it updated from 2.2
I used Odin and tried recovery.tar file and now I'm getting a screen with a phone icon with a caution icon in the middle and a computer icon after it.
So I think I really messed it up
Any help
the thing is Odin is still connected
and no matter how much i try restarting whether in download mode or regularly same thing is still happening.
So if I can get some help would really appreciate it. I hope it can be restored

Does Odin still see the device? If it does, try to install the stock firmware. It may take some time to find it on the net. The first place I would try is here http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3 and scroll down the page, put in your info in the drop down boxes and submit.

Thanks, Odin is still recognizing it
the original firmware was the ATT one
this Tab 2 has the 3G version
when I checked there I didn't see any one that was similar

It is a soft brick and is recoverable. Go to here http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=752 and read all the stickies in the general and dev sections. Apparently, you will not find an at&t rom per se, but can flash a new rom and pit, there are some very good detailed instructions available, but first read, and read some more, and some more after that. Apparently, your type of tab had signed bootloader issues, so be careful which rom you load. Also, as I have suggested with my links, go to the correct forum. I'm pretty sure you have a sgh i987, (based on the fact you were running 2.2 on at&t), and not a tab2.

Previous link was to the wiki, this one is to the forum. Many links will be dead and you will have to likely download the euro rom from sammobile. There is also a sticky for radio issues.

Thanks appreciate all the help AMD o just realise I said this forum instead of this link that you had pointed to earlier. So again thank you.

Ok, as I suspectef, you have the galaxy tab, not the tab 2, hence this is the wrong forum. Go to the forum I linked to, there are some stickies about rooting, recovery soft brick, etc. My understanding is that overcome rom or p1000 should work, but you must follow whatever odin procedures, etc. they use. Chainfire has a great post up about recovering, however the file links no longer work. Go there and ask if someone has the file(s) you need. This guy lists the files he used from sammobile http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=996970 You will not find the files in this forum, this is the wrong forum for your device, this is for tab 2 models 31xx and 51xx, yours is a p1000 branded.

[Q] Galaxy S4 GT-i9505 hard brick

Hi Guys,
I havent used this site in years but recently I bought a Galaxy S4 outright from JBHIFI.
Before you guys give me alot of crap, I have a very bad feeling that I may have hard bricked it.
It doesnt turn on anymore, not even in recovery or download mode. I am very new to android as I was using an iPhone before and couldn't resist attempting to root my phone (stock program were killing my battery)
I hadn't even had the chance to flash a custom rom on there as far as i know i just grated root access.
Funny thing is it was doing the same thing the other day. But randomly it decided to charge and turn on. Now it is definitely not charging or turning on and i have no idea what to do... it just sucks cause i havent ever this phone for a month and its already useless! :crying:
I was using it for about a week after i rooted and now im just stuck with a brick.
Any help would greatly be appreciated, feel free to ask any questions.

sorry... is that just taking the battery out? LOL if so, yes ive tried it quite a few times.
at one stage it was turning on but only loading the splash screen... so i pulled the battery out. even if i tried to start it in recovery mode, it would only load the blue text at the top of the screen and then freeze.
i have a mate who also got an s4 so i was going to meet up with them and see if i could use their battery because it seems the phone has even lost its capability to charge.

No, you don't have to be in download mode. Install right driver, connect your phone to pc and run the program. Then it will be in download mode, so flash firmware with pit file

Hi just an update.
Took my phone to samsung because it was just completely screwed. They replaced the motherboard and camera but didnt find out that my phone was rooted which was good.
Thanks for your help everyone

My galaxy S4 is "hard bricked" as well after trying to flash OMEGA ROM onto the device. My guess is that somebody mislabeled the ROM and it was intended for the octal-core processors and not the US quad-core ones.
Does anyone have a link for the qualcomm drivers that are needed? I'm at a loss currently in regards of which direction to take.

i know... its just frustrating... i pretty much got it when it came out and convinced all my mates that it was the best phone out there at the moment (all the features are pretty nifty and its powerful ill admit)
funny thing was the camera was working perfectly before i took it in and didnt even think it needed replacing. the camera worked when i got it back the first time i opened the app but it had smearing (pink vertical lines on bright objects). after that it the app didnt open again and just has the "camera app failed" error.
as for the hardbrick guys i think the qualcomm drivers work but only if you can get your phone to turn on or enter d/l mode. mine was so fried out that it wouldnt show any signs of life even after getting the drivers.
