i tried restoring my image file from cwm and it just froze into the samsung screen, i tried clearing all the data,cache and dalvik and still wont work.
so i tried to flash odin files dj20 system and kernel and it worked for a while but when i restarted the phone it keeps going to the recovery screen, i do not know what else i can do. i tried so many searches on this forum and google and i cant find a way that works for me, so i am stuck at the recovery screen. please help.

yup and it wouldnt work, it kept telling me it failed, other people are telling me i have to repartition my phone and that i need a pit file but when i asked where do i get it they just told me to look for, i have been and i been at this for 4 hours now.

Did you re flash the old original recovery? Because there wouldn't be a failed error in the original one....

well i tried everything and somehow i got it to boot up again, but....no wifi or 3g network works, so im guessing the radio file got deleted, is there a way to fix that or am i screwed
hardware version i400.0.6
model number SHC-I400
Firmware version 2.1-update1
baseband version S:i400.0.6v.DL17
kernel version 2.6.29
SHC-I400.DJ20

Yup, that's normal... re flash the cwm recovery through imnuts guide, and restore your backup
If you don't have one, then flash the DL17 clean rom...
Your radio is fine, btw xD
Oh, and also btw, be honest... After you followed the magical guide to the T, was that what you thought got it to work, or did you try something else in between? if you did something else, then I'll add it to the magical fix post xD thanks in advance

i dont think my radio is fine anymore, i was too impatient that i flashed the dl09 radio.
well i did alot, i cant really tell you what i did in exact order because there was too much at 4 in the morning after working on this for 6 hours but here we go:
odin cwm recovery
used new update.zip from cwm forum
tried flashing adryns rom and imnuts kernel
tried flashing dj20 system and kernel
fixed permissions
tried nandroid restore
used "magical fix"
had to reinstall my drivers for samsung because of magical fix
repartition device via odin
reflashed dj20 system and kernel via odin
radio file not working so i flashed dl09(because i was too impatient and panicking)
turned on, set up phone, turn off, download mode,
odin cwm recovery with former update.zip
cwm flashed adrynalynes rom and peanutbutterjelly kernel
rebooted, then rebooted back to recovery,
restored nandroid backup
phone works once again
i do not know if that helps, well thats all i did, and i believe it was it that order

You officially just tbagged your self now when it comes to updates xP
I told you nothing was wrong with the modem
Yes, a fascinate modem might work on our phone, but Now if we get an update, your not going to be able to flash it xP lol...
if this doesn't bother you, that's okay xD but if it does, there might be something you can do (aka... Pm me xP)
Sent from my Continuum

I know! Ahhh! I read that right after I had already flashed the radio. It kind of does bother me so I, pm'd you
Sent from my mind

You'll be able to flash an update via Clockwork when a ROM is created so I wouldn't worry too much.

Not unless someone modifies the update xD all you would have to do though is delete the modem-delta file xD

So, there's no need to flash a GB Bootloader??

You need to flash GB bootloader if your using ics passion, or your gonna get rainbows.

I've only flash 3 Roms since January... but the process isn't very complex. Must be time to try something new

Thank you! Was looking for a way to flash ics without having to flashing bootloader. I don't mind the extra steps, and your video looks very easy to follow! Can not wait to try it all out, hopefully I can find time tomorrow after work.
Quick question on the no bootloader, do you see rainbows on reboot etc?

You have to odin back. Just follow all instructions when using odin and you will be fine. Its scary at first but so simple when you do it a few times.

Can't Get Into Recovery
Hello,
I watched the video and was trying out as per instructions but I have run into a problem. I'll list down the steps
1. I successfully installed CM7 after backup as per instructions.
2. Backed up CM7 in recovery mode and wiped the cache as per instructions
3. Selected the ICS zip that I had downloaded into the SD card.
Now the phone is in a loop that just shows Samsung vibrant initial screen. I can't even get into the recovery mode when I press the volume up/down and the power button.
I thought I could used ODIN but the phone isn't even getting into the download mode when connected to USB.
Can you please help? I'm totally stuck

Success!
Yess!! I did it.
Went to bed. Couldn't sleep. Had to have it.
Installed clockwork rom manager premium and tried from within that tool and it worked.
Some things I learned.
1. The procedure in the video did not work with stock Android 2.2. Had to go back to 2.1 using odin.
2. Invest in good tools like clockwork mod.
Have had this phone for 2 years. Hated it every day and was envious of iPhone users. Cursed Android. Came to this site many times and was scared away by the loads of text.
Then I saw this video that promised nirvana in 10 mins. Took me 5 hours but learned odin and all the good stuff to be able to flash the rom.
I feel great.
And you guys are amazing!

Yeah, good luck with that. Once you learn flashing you might get addicted with it.

Have anyone tried doing a restore from the CM7 nandroid backup file after flashing ICS? is it safe?

There should be no problem in doing that as long as you do a full wipe and format /system ....

How to Fix Almost Any Bricked Vibrant

I recently bircked my vibrant with a bad kernel flash, and it wouldn't get past the Vibrant Samsung screen. I fixed it, so I decided to post how I did it here, to hopefully help someone. I am not sure if this works on newer Vibrants. If you have one of the first batch then you should be fine.
Step 1
You need to get ODIN and the stock Samsung/T-Mo 2.2 rom. I am not allowed to post outside links, and the file is too big for an attachment, so you will have to search for it, try googling "Download Samsung Vibrant Stock Rom"
Download all the files and extract them somewhere where you can find them.
Step 2
Once you have those downloaded, start up ODIN, for pda, select the pda (.tar) file you downloaded. For the pit file (make sure you extract it, it should be .pit not .rar or .zip) select the pit file you downloaded.
Step 3
Now, pull the battery, and re-insert it. Make sure your phone is turned off, and hold down VOL+ and VOL-, then plug in the USB cable to your computer, then phone. (DO NOT press the power button on the phone) Wait a second, and the download screen should now show up. Simply press start on ODIN and wait for your phone to get the the unlock screen. All done!
If this worked, please reply and tell me!

I am not sure of any ROMs that still require odin, as CWM is a lot easier to use. I would reccomend going back to stock, rooting the phone, then installing CyanogenMod. If you're fast enough, you can get it done and have a working phone in about an hour.

Well the only mode I can get on the bricked phone is download mode with the jig.
After that ODIN works. I've never been able to get ADB to play well on this computer.
There is an ODIN version of stock 2.2 I may try if I don't find something newer. Thanks! I did find a guide on how to make an ODIN ROM but it is a bit late for me to do it...

No, your not "bricked". If you can get into download or recovery your fine, a bootloop just means you screwed something up and didnt flash correctly or correct roim maybe.
Start over, restock using overcome guide/pack, then flash the correct cm9 via recovery for your model/variant.

No way to avoid stock when "only" CWM recovery is "gone"
Hi all,
the last CW-9 nightly update finally did it... boot loop and CWM recovery can not be selected any more (Vol UP and Power). Download mode (Vol DOWN and Power) works, but I would really hate to restock, because my only nandroid backup and Titanium backups are on the internal SD and that would get formatted in the process.
I looked around for other phones and it seems as if they can simply load an image of CWM 6.xxx via ODIN (I tried fastboot but that did not find my device at all).
I could not find any CWM V6 image as a .tar file anywhere. Anyony have a link?
Does anyone know a simple and fast way to get back my nandroid state WITHOUT restock?
Thanks

Yesss Sir, I did read. But maybe you sent the wrong link, because your "answer" (not his) points a an open question. Or how do you read his last sentence "does anybody know how I can go about doing this?" -- As to the heimdall solution, I tried that, only to find that it was unable to write to my internal SD. So, i guess the partition scheme got messed up :crying::crying::crying:
Anyway, I gave up (this time) and restocked. Back to my last accessible data backup from May...:crying:
Should somebody still find a "real" answer, please do respond. Even if the answer should be a clear "it can't be done", so be it. Or ask St. :angel: CDESAI to please please make "our" version of CW Reboot.

I sent you the right link for those who messed up their kernel .
If your partition gone bad then no wonder it won't work.
Now you have restocked, you can always start from scratch.

[Q] How to go back to stock? (SPH-L720T)

I have already unrooted my phone but I've been getting these update notifications to update my phone and when it restarts the phone to update, it fails! Everytime. So i'm guessing I need to go back to stock using Odin and a Tar file but I havent found any for the SPH-L720T version just SPH-L720. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

You didn't search long or hard enough. The answer IS here - even for the T version.
I'll thow this out to you.
Reason you can't update is because you have a custom recovery/kernel.
To get/receive an update you have to be on FULL Stock recovery and kernel.
If you want to get back to full stock you can try this
Got to sammobile.com and login in (register if you have to) then download the latest .tar for the T model
Then extract (unzip) the firmware file (just to the .tar.md5 file)
Open Odin
Reboot phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons. Volume up next)
Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin
Add the firmware file to PDA slot (only file named .tar.md5)
Leave Autoreboot and F. Reset checked.
Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
Click the start button, sit back and wait a few minutes.
You phone will finish and should reboot.
1st boot takes a while (about 5 EARTH minutes) then you should get the 'activate' process.

It worked but after initial reboot I found that my wifi no longer works everytime I go to turn it on I get a security message any suggestions?

go into system settings>about phone and check your baseband (it's the modem/firmware) if it doesn't match (it should say NC6) the build version then you may have to re-flash.
Also have you made sure to upate your PRL AND Profile?
I have read a few posts abou this and it seems to actually be a Sprint issue.

Just ODIN back to stock NC6. That should do it.

Which one is NC6 again? The one the guy linked to up there ^ was the 4.4.2 and I was on 4.3 so yeah you guys were right I probably have different basebands. Is NC6 the 4.4.2? Im downloading the 4.3 as we speak but man those servers over there at samobile are bad right now :/

It is from Knox I found that out when I tried clearing cache/data on the security message and I even forced closed it then tried wi-fi and no luck.

go into stock recovery and factory reset.
Then after booting up shut down completely.
Then boot to recovery.
Reflash the .tar (follow previous proceedure)
And see if the baseband/modem is properly updated this time.
I read that some people, after taking the latest OTA (the same as the .tar) have had to go back to sprint to have them fix it - most likely just flashing the modem.
That being said since there are some (read many) people having this issue with NC6, you can always try to Odin the NAF .tar and see if all works.
Then if you want try and take the Sprint OTA (via system settings>more>updates and check there.

I think my Device is bricked now
I followed the method which leaderbuilder said and now I believe my phone is bricked. It won't boot into recovery anymore. When the phone is turned on it says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies & try again." But when I open kies it says my device is not supported. Someone help me please. :crying:
