How can I flash a .tar file that contains font apk?
Should I use ODIN? (but where to put the file? CSC, MODEM or PHONE?
or can I just flash it though CWM?

hey guys where I get a .TAR file ? or convert a .zip to .tar.
I have my pit file just dont seem to know what to do with the .tar file.
Im used to restore.flashing my phone via .zip thats all.
Can I just take my .zip rom I want and convert to .tar
what is it that you wanted to do in the first place? samfirmware has copies of the regional firmwares (.tar files) if you want them.
.tar is another form of archive. You need to read this fully:

I also recommend you search Youtube for some videos of the process too. Odin flashing is not the same as a .zip update from SD Card, and honestly if you are unfamiliar with what a tar-ball is you may not be up for what using Odin entails. You have a very real risk of bricking your phone through a mistake.
Read, read again, be sure, flash!
i just flashed zimage.tar via odin s i can root my gingerbread rom JV6 but it seems nothing is happening. see below image. its been an hour already! pls help i cant use my fone. i need to root it so i can restore my apps using TB. my fone is still in dwnload mode the yellow android image
You don't have to flash the zimage file. Instead flash the .tar file which you get after you extract the downloaded .zip file. When extracting, don't select extract here instead select extract to folder -- the latter would get you .tar file while the former gets you not-for-flashing zimage file.
All the CWM files from the official website are *.img but odin3 is asking for a tar file.
there has to be some reason why all the files are IMG that its the right file (its the only thing available form their site...). Where can I find a tar file from CWM?
Additionally, do you have to root to flash CWM from stock?
Hi all!!! I have the Wind Mobile Canada M919V. I've downloaded the latest firmware from Sammobile in tar/md5 format. I've extracted the tar file and see the modem.bin, boot.img, recovery.img, etc. Which file is the kernel? How do I extract the kernel so I can flash it with odin after installing a custom rom through bootstrap? I've tried googling for the answer but couldn't come up with anything. Anyone? Thx!
Boot.img. If you're rooted use the flashify app. No need for Odin
