I have tried many 2.2's on the spica and i want to flash it to this version of the original firmware - I570EXXJH1
I have downloaded this from samfirmwares and after opening it i t contained 2 files, a eSER.tar file and a SS_DL.dll.
Also it said that the New .ops file is required is required,but the link does not work.
I also have odin 4.03 with some ops file in it,don't know wether it's old or new.
1.can anyone post the link to the New .ops file.
2.So what all should i select in odin ?
Guys, any one ? i Badly need the new ops file and the procedure as the phone is very unstable...
I would use the Samdroid forum, they should be able to help.
I have a Spica and it verty stable (and fast) using CM 8.3.2 and Yonip V12 kernel.

1. You need spica_jc3.ops- here is the correct one (if it downloads as .ops.txt just remove .txt)
2.Firmware file should be named i5700XXJH1.tar or in a similar manner.
SS_DL.dll must remain in the same directory where .tar firmware is located
a) put the phone to download mode and connect USB cable
b)start Odin and see if the phone is found- in top left field you should se COM port number. If there isn't- check in Device Manager if drivers are correctly installed
c) load spica_jc3.ops as OPS file and firmware as One Package file
d) select OnePackage option, leave other options as they are- Reset Timer, Protect Ops and Reset Timer (300) should be selected by default
e) click Start button, don't touch the phone and PC, sti back and wait
f) when flashing is done phone will reboot, you can safely unplug USB and close Odin
Hi everyone
I've got a few questions about flashing an Android phone. I've tried going through KIES but unfortunately they don't have any updates for the below mentioned model.
I've got an GT-I5800XXXMST (Belgium telecom model) that I want to flash using Odin. I want to use the following image: I5800XWJPE.tar
1. Do I need to remove the sbl.bin, boot.bin and logo.png to play it safe? In that in that case I always retain the ability to flash
2. Do I need to edit the OPS file and remove the above mentioned entries?
3. Which OPS file should/can I use? Are they all the same for the I5800? (apollo_0531.ops)
4. Which version of ODIN do I need to use? I currently have I5800_Odin_Multi_Downloader_v4.252.exe
5. Do I need to backup my EMEI?
6. Simple and plain backup tool for upping my current os?
7. Any tips?
Many thanks all,
Tempert

1) Yes removing boot.bin and sbl.bin would be safe.
2) No need to edit ops or anything.
3) Ops is same for all ROMS(i.e. apollo_0531.ops).
4) The ODIN version that you have mentioned is the correct version. Use that.
5) Yes. Backing up IMEI would be good. For tutorial click here.
6) Use titanium backup to backup apps.
1. yes, but you can download romfiles without those files in the forums
2. no, you just remove them from the tar archive
3. all the same
4. that's the one
5. better be safe, but I haven't had a problem with it
6. Alexgalaxy's backup script
7. read and search the forum
Go for jpn or jpm . Yes you have to remove the files to avoid hardbrick. Dont worry its been done by dharamg3
use this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125387
After downloading from the above thread thread
Just use apollo_0531.ops for flashing using the odin that you have
Yes it is recommended to backup your IMEI
Use this thread for backup and restore of IMEI
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=888193
The IMEI is stored in a partition called efs
And root your phone before you backup
Many thanks all!!
Verry clear answers
Running 2.2 happily
Yesss!
Any luck with the backup of your original firmware ? Could you share the factoryfs.rfs ?
I have tried to backup my phone with that Alexscript. Although It gave some errors about not finding some directories...
Will the factoryfs.rfs contain personal data?
No, it's your system partition; personal info is stored in the data partition. You have root and your sdcard is big enough for the backup (500MB free should do it) ?
But if you have already flashed another rom, there's obviously no need. I thought about having an original "Orange" rom for when I need to use warranty on my phone.
It's a Mobistar rom. I think I have it but the .tar file was only 200Mb big if I remember correctly. I will try an upload it if I have the time.
Hmm, yeah, I meant Mobistar obviously.
Sounds about right. You can zip it again to save a lot of space.
There's been quite a bit of discussion lately regarding modems and the Radio Interface Layer (RIL)
The usual modem CWM files install the modem.bin file and nothing else. Ideally your modem's RIL files should also be installed, as the modem and RIL should be fully compatible with each other in order for it to work optimally. If they are not matching, you may (emphasis on the "may"!!) not be getting the most out of your modem.
For this modem/RIL compatibility, other files that came bundled in official firmware for its particular modem are required.
The app GetRIL attempts to rectify this problem.
These modem-particular files are (and I'm still looking for more possibilities):
1. /system/lib/libril.so
2. /system/lib/libsec-ril.so
3. /system/lib/libsecril-client.so
4. /system/lib/libsecril-client-sap.so(4.0.4+)
5. /system/bin/drexe (thanks to E:V:A)
(Filenames containing "sec" means "Samsung Electronics Corporation" by the way)
The above RIL files can be obtained from official firmware .md5 file (or your custom ROM's zip file) and are particular to whichever verison of modem it was bundled with. So for example, if a firmware was bundled with XXLPX modem, the RIL files in the lib folder will be the files particular to the XXLPX modem (unless a ROM developer has put in a modem.bin in the installer zip that differs to that of the original firmware....be aware of this possibility.)
I assume all the modem CWM files that we have been installing in the past have been created by the general public who have downloaded firmware and posted up a convenient modem flash file, so I have now created a more complete modem flashable file that does Modem+RIL.
The scripts I've written install the modem as normal, but also install the system/lib files, thereby installing a modem with 100% correct RIL. The script also backs up the current RIL files to internal sd card under MyBackups folder.
What will a modem with matching RIL give me?
It almost certainly will not improve your signal strength. My findings are however suggesting you have an improved chance of obtaining better network connectivity (eg. E, G, 3G, H, H+). For example, I am now consistently getting a H+ connection where previously I would only be getting H at best. This will obviously improve your speeds during browsing, and my findings are also suggesting that the better the network connection, the more chance you have for Fast Dormancy to work as it should, thereby saving battery.
Only flash Modem/RIL taken from 4.1.2 onto 4.1.2. Do NOT flash these on previous versions as they will not work properly.
It is also recommended NOT to flash Modem/RIL taken from firmwares previous to 4.1.2 onto 4.1.2.
If you want to try older modems on 4.1.2, then flash MODEM ONLY WITHOUT RIL.
These Modem/RIL files have been extracted from official Samsung firmwares. Do not attempt to flash Modem/RIL files onto CM/AOSP/AOKP based ROMs as results cannot be guaranteed. You may end up with no network or baseband if you flash on anything other than Samsung based ROMs, so do so at your own risk!!!!

(T_) - GT-I9100T-specific modems
After flashing you should have a compatible Modem/RIL combination.
NOTE: As you would now be using Samsung's intended RIL files for your modem, if you run GetRIL after running a ModemRIL script and GetRIL reports a mis-match after flashing one of the ModemRIL scripts, then barring a mistake by Samsung themselves or the script's author by building RIL files from a different modem/firmware, then it is a problem with GetRIL's database and/or logic on how it decides if there is a mis-match.
Backup of RIL Files
If a ModemRIL installer has been created for the original modem that was bundled with your firmware, then dont worry at all about backup/restore. The appropriate ModemRIL file is the best method to get you back onto your firmware's intended setup. However you can still use the backup/restore scripts below if desired.
The intended method of backing up your RIL files is to keep a copy of your firmware's original RIL files. To achieve this, it is best to get into the habit of flashing RIL-Backup once you have flashed new firmware before you start playing about with different modems. This only becomes a necessity if a ModemRIL installer has not yet been created for the firmware's original modem. If one has been created, I wouldn't worry about it too much, but you may still want to run RIL-Backup as habit. RIL-Backup will remove any existing backup found and create a copy in /sdcard/MyBackups/BackupRIL. This way, you can always revert back to the intended RIL of your firmware if need be. As a safeguard, my ModemRIL scripts will also backup the current RIL files if no previous backup was found. If a backup is detected, then it will be skipped. Just remember if you rely on the backup created by ModemRIL scripts and do not use RIL-Backup after flashing a new ROM, then the restore may not necessarily be of the original RIL files that came with your new firmware.
RIL_Backup will force a backup of your current RIL files. Remember, best practice is to run this once directly after flashing new firmware/ROM, before installing different modems.
Restore RIL Files
If you need to restore back to your original/previous modem/RIL then simply run the ModemRIL script from this thread for that modem.
If a ModemRIL installer has not been created for the modem you need to revert back to, then you can run the RIL-Restore script. You will then need to flash the previous modem using a modem-only CWM flashable file.
RIL_Restore will attempt to restore the original RIL files backed up by RIL-Backup or by one of these scripts.
Note on possibe BootLoops
The modem.bin and all the RIL files contained in the ModemRIL scripts came from whichever firmware the modem was bundled within. Therefore it is possible that there could be issues if trying to install these on anything other than the firmware version that the modem/RIL originated from. This is why the originating firmware version is stated above. I can only test on my current ROM (NEAT LPI which is ICS 4.0.3). If after flashing there is incompatibility issues with your particular firmware version, the best course of action would be to flash the ModemRIL file for your firmware's original modem.
I only want to install the Modem without RIL
If you just want to install the modem only from any of the Modem+RIL files then:
1. Download the Modem_RIL.zip file you require
2. Create your Modem-only zip from this
This modem-only zip file can be created in one of two ways:
I already have a Modem-only zip file but for another modem
1. Rename this (or copy) to Modem_xxxxx.zip for the Modem you are wanting to flash
2. Open this zip file along with the Modem_RIL file you just downloaded with 7Zip
3. Ensure you can see a file called modem.bin in both archives
4. Drag the modem.bin file from the Modem_RIL file into the Modem_xxxxx.zip file
5. Save+exit
6. Flash Modem_xxxxx.zip through CWM
I don't have any Modem-only zip files
Simply remove the system folder from the Modem_RIL zip file:
1. Rename (or copy) ModemRIL_xxxxx.zip to Modem_xxxxx.zip
2. Open the zip with 7Zip
3. Right click the system folder and choose Delete
4. Exit 7Zip. You will now be good to go for a modem-only flash
5. Flash Modem_xxxxx.zip through CWM
However, for completeness you may want to also change the updater-script accordingly. To do this:
1. Get hold of an updater-script from an existing modem-only zip
2. If you don't have one, download updater_script_Modem_Only and rename this file to updater_script
3. Open your Modem_xxxxx.zip file and navigate to META-INF/com/google/android
4. Drag+drop updater-script into the zip
If you don't change the updater-script, then there is no harm done. No RIL will be installed (as its been removed from the zip), you will just see RIL-related messages in the installer which you can ignore.
How to make your own ModemRIL script
Step 1 - Get the files you need
You need to use the zip/tar/md5 file of the original ROM so that we know we have a RIL that is best suited to the modem it came bundled with. From this you can extract the modem.bin file, and also all the required RIL files listed above.
Extract files from a custom ROM (.zip)
You can very easily extract the necessary files from a custom ROM (Eg. Neat ROM)
1. Open the zip file by using 7Zip
2. Find modem.bin and drag it onto your desktop
3. Navigate to /system/lib and /system/bin
4. Drag the files mentioned above to your desktop
To get the required files from an official Samsung download (.tar.md5) file is a little more tricky:
Extract files from an official Samsung download (.tar.md5)
For this you will need the following installed on your PC:
Java Runtime, sgs2toext4.jar and Linux Reader from www.diskinternals.com.
It will be easier for later if you create a shortcut on your desktop to the DiskInternals Linux Reader
1. Open the md5 file, open it with 7Zip and extract modem.bin and factoryfs.img (ignore any no current record error)
2. Double click sgs2toext4.jar (you need to have java installed on your PC for this to work)
3. Drop the file factoryfs.img file inside sgs2toext4.jar This will generate factoryfs.ext4.img
4. Drop factoryfs.ext4.img onto your DiskInternals Linux Reader shortcut you created on your Desktop. This will open the app.
5. Double click Linux Ext Volume 1 (or similar)
6. Navigate to the /system/lib and /system/bin folders and look for the RIL files above. Android 4.0.4+ will have file (4.). Save these files to your PC.
At this point you should now have the neccessary files saved onto your PC. Ie:
modem.bin
/system/lib/libril.so
/system/lib/libsec-ril.so
/system/lib/libsecril-client.so
/system/lib/libsecril-client-sap.so (4.0.4+)
/system/bin/drexe
You can now use these files to create your own ModemRIL installer script:
Step 2 - Build the script
1. Download any one of the existing ModemRIL scripts and make a copy. For my personal template, use BVLP7.
2. Rename this copy to the ModemRIL you are going to build
3. Open the .zip file with 7Zip
4. At the root of the zip, drop your modem.bin file so that the existing version of this file is overwritten
5. Navigate into the system/lib folder
6. Remove all the existing (.so) files
7. Drop any lib files you saved into this folder.
8. Navigate into the system/bin folder
9. Remove all the existing files
10. Drop any bin files you saved into this folder.
The ModemRIL zip file is now done. The following steps are optional, but recommended for completeness and to avoid confusion when installing:
8. Go back up to the root folder and navigate to META-INF/com/google/android
9. Drag+drop the file called updater-script onto your desktop
10. Right click this file and edit this with Notepad++. Do not edit with Windows Notepad, as you will corrupt the carriage-return characters.
11. Edit the 4th line of this file to show the name of the modem/RIL you are building
12. Save the file in Notepad++
13. Drag the amended updater-script file back into your open zip archive, overwriting the existing script
You're done!

As I posted in the modems thread: "Thanks for the BVLP7 composition but no H+ signal. Unless its only a matter of icon."
Flashed your BVLP7 combo but only getting H sing.. No H+ anymore.. Any ideas? Could it be a rom issue?
Thanks

Different modems work better for different regions/carriers.
I'm in the UK on Orange with BVLP7 and get H+ fine.
So it seems does ApriliaM3, who I believe is in Thailand.
As with all modems, its a case of trying to find out which one works best for you.
Matching the RIL is not a magic cure for all (if at all) but it will at least give the modem the best chance for it to work as intended.
Nice one Hawker old boy!
Whilst I cannot say that my signal has changed, and nor would I expect it to, but I am hoping that by having a compatible RIL I will have less wakelocks and thus improve my battery life.
Thanks for this thread and keep up the good work. :good:

Just tried your BVLPE combo and I now do get H+ icon as supposed to be. Will keep this for a few days and see how it goes as a modem..
Thanks!
Great thread Paul!...
about PBVLP7, I had the same problem with H instead H+ and after testing is not an icon problem, it dont work in H+.
The strange thing is that is from Orange and Android 4.0.3, the newer Android 4.0.4 comes with BVLPE, but this is for I9100 and not P variant so maybe we have to wait the 4.0.4 P variant
Another curious thing, I'm in Mexico a for Mexico in the last 4.0.4 there is the modem LPH+RIL, but this modem work much worse than BVLPE+RIL...

Cheers mate
I'm in the UK on Orange, but BVLP7 works great for me. I get H+ regularly!
When doing BVLP7 Fast Dormancy testing (*#0011#) I get correct drops from DCH to FACH to PCH, with an eventual drop to IDLE.
I tested BVLPE for FD, and it seems to go mostly from DCH directly down to IDLE. (this will probably be more battery friendly for users who hardly ever use the internet when outside of wifi range)
Apart from this, BVLP7 and BVLPE seem pretty much identical in terms of signal for me.
Here are the UHLPH (comes with lastest UHLPV firmware) and XXLPS using your script.

Interesting to see UHLPH also has a libsecril-client-sap.so file.
Only this and BVLPE has this file up to now.

Thanks I have know for the first time *#0011#, I have note this strang thing... when the phone is in H, RRC State goes to idle, when it change to H+
is remains stuck in DCH... strange...
DCH means it is currently in its highest volume data transfer rate.
"normal" FD behaviour should then downgrade states in the following manner:
DCH -> FACH -> PCH and then eventually to IDLE
Ideally it should remain at PCH for a while in case more data transfer is required.
Anyone got a good one for the 3 network UK?

Probably is a Getril bug, because that combination is that comes from the original firmware I9100OXALPS, the RIL Modem you flashed is correct
hawkerpaul
I think you should just add that:
ICS RIL (libsec-ril.so) will not work on GB rom (you will get no service), I think it's because libril.so is different
so if you include libril.so in you modem+ril zips then I think it will work but I don't know if it will cause problems or not.
also libril.so is maybe different on 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 but I did not check it.
do you see any difference in reception on the same modem with difference rills?

I think you should just add that:
ICS RIL (libsec-ril.so) will not work on GB rom (you will get no service), I think it's because libril.so is different

Ok thanks mate. I'll amend the first post.
I don't think a matching modem/ril will mean a better reception, but there is a better chance of it operating more efficiently (hopefully fewer wakelocks so saving on battery). Some have noticed H+ reception where previously they got none etc.
Now added XXLQ6
great thread dude. as a chronic flasher of all things S2, will be following closely
I downloaded the latest firmware (so far) for the SM-G920F extracted the bootlader and modem files and converted them with this tool to .tar.md5 files to use with the latest odin.
You can use them to update to the latest firmware version without having to wipe your data or flash the official ROM.
Warning : I tested theese files on my phone (SM-G920F) and i had no problems , however i have no responsibilty if you do something wrong or end up bricking your phone!
Name of the firmware : G920FXXS4DPIJ_G920FOXX4DPH1_G920FXXS4DPIJ_HOME.tar.md5

I will tell you how to do it for the modem, but the same applies for the bootloader as well.
You download the program i linked you and extract it in a folder on you C drive (example C:\img2tar ).
You open the firmware you downloaded from sammobile with winrar or 7zip.
You extract the modem.bin from inside.
You place the modem.bim inside the program's folder (example img2tar) and run the batch.bat
A file named modem.tar.md5 has been created.Flash that file via odin.

Awrsome man, nice job.It's really slow to download the whole firmware so theese tars are handy .
I didn't downloaded it yet but from its name i saw that on bootloader you packed only the sboot.bin.
If you look at my release and open the allfiles.tar.md5 with 7zip or winrar you will see two files inside : sboot.bin and cm.bin.
Those two files are needed for the boot loader.
Now to make those two files a single .tar.md5 you need to copy them both inside the program directory (example C:\img2tar)
Then you run the batch.bat file like normal.
This time you go inside the created folder mame AllFiles and there you have the allfiles.tar.md5 witch is the complete bootloader with both files inside (you can open it with winrar or 7zip to be sure)
I kinda forgot to tell you the method above.By the way it would be a bad idea to renane the files.

I found a site with a tutorial on how to install Android 7.0 on P9 lite.On version VNS-L31C636B361 there are 3 files, and acording to them, you need to follow these steps:
Extract the contents of the zip files you downloaded from above.
Create a folder named “dload” in the root directory of your device’s SDcard.
Copy all the extracted contents of the zips into the dload folder.
Open the dialer app and dial *#*# 2846579#*# *
Select Project Menu > Software upgrade > SDcard upgrade > confirm the installation.
The firmware will begin installing and once that is done your device will reboot automatically.
But the problem is, if I extract all the contents from all 3 files, some of them have the same name and overwrite, and when I try to install by *#*# 2846579#*# *, it stops after 5% and gives me fail error.
What is the correct way to install and why are there 3 separate files ? (also, do I need to have some settings ? the phone should be connected to PC while installing ? )
Thank you very much!
What model you have?
Seems you have another oeminfo...
i have the same problem, it runs now on version vns-l31c432b161, if a want to install android 7 i get the same message as above

the omeinfo is 100% the same, otherwise if would have said its not compatible.The problem is there are 3 different files for this model to download, and if u extract them in the same folder, they overwrite ? What is the correct way to install them ?

EDIT: i tried again and it stucks on 5%, doesnt say anything.
Good to know!
If you are in MM 6.0 you can not go to Nougat 7.0 without some preparation until Huawei release official version.
I you are already in Nougat 7.0 (B3xx) you can go to B360-B361, directly with Sdcard upgrade or with three keys pressed method.
U dint answer my question though.Let me be more clear.
Here is a tutorial on how to install Android 7.0 on P9 Lite: http://www.droidviews.com/update-huawei-p9-lite-manually-official-android-7-0-nougat-emui-5-0/
On my model, there are 3 files:
4. VNS-L31C636B361
update.zip
update_data_full_VNS-L31_B360_hw_meafnaf.zip
update_data_full_VNS-L31_B361_hw_meafnaf.zip
and they say
Extract the contents of the zip files you downloaded from above.
Create a folder named “dload” in the root directory of your device’s SDcard.
Copy all the extracted contents of the zips into the dload folder.
But some of the files from these 3 .zips have the same name, and when I copy them in the same folder, they overwrite.
Is that tutorial sh1t ?
