[Q] Am looking 4 stock "PHONE" file 4 Vibrant T959 - Vibrant General

Hello,
Do you know where I can get a PHONE file for Vibrant T959 to use with ODIN?? Please help...
A while back, in the process of installing a 2.3.3 ROM on my Vibrant T959, I used a Galaxy 9000 PHONE file (and PIT and PDA) via ODIN. Since then, at boot, splash says i9000 then 2nd splansh says Vibrant.
Phone works ok, but there are times when it thinks phone is an i9000 not an Vibrant - like using ROM Manager and downloading recovery.
I have looked everywhere but not found a stock PHONE file for Vibrant (only found 512 PIT and PDA files).
Please email or point me to one, if you have or know where.
Much appreciated

Hi eggnoodle,
I do not see PHONE file in the package..., only the PIT and PDA files.
Will this fix the GT i9000 splash screen and other issue? Let me know..
thx

Perhaps you misunderstood, but I was not looking for the TAR and PIT files. I am looking for the PHONE file.
Thx

If you're looking for stock rom then you can find it here

hopefully someone else with more experience can chime in...as I'm a newbie myself.

Thx anyway, but I am looking for the specific PHONE file to use with ODIN...

Hi seedofchaos,
I have flashed back to stock many a time, to install ROMS, etc. but this has not restored the Vibrant initial splashscreen. This first splash only changed after I used a GT i9000 PHONE file with ODIN.
If you can direct me to a PHONE file to use with ODIN, I would appreciate it.
I have read about the aoi toolbox but it is more than I was looking for at moment. I just need the PHONE file for the Vibrant T959, please.

Flashing the Samsung Vibrant to stock firmware does not require a PHONE file to be selected in Odin.
You might have heard that for some other phone, but for this phone all that is required is a .tar file and a .pit file which has already been linked to.
Edit: Seems like you might just have to flash a vibrant kernel. Look into flashing that.

No sir, I am not trying to flash back to stock. I am not trying to flash to stock. I know how to do that with TAR and PIT, but that is not what I am trying to do.
I need the PHONE file to restore the initial boot splash and to get the phone to stop identifying as a GT i9000 in some apps, which it does. This behavior started when I used a GT i9000 PHONE file in ODIN.
Sorry for the confusion this is causing, but if anyone has it, I need a PHONE file for Vibrant T959.
thanks

We understand what you are trying to do. You want to get the old boot splash back the only way to do that is to flash a stock rom. Jfd will do the trick. Otherwise you'll need to have a custom kernel like overstock flashed through clockworkmod.

Well, I have flashed JFD twice using ODIN, but no cigar.
I did so in the process of installing a new ROM.
Is there something I am missing? Current ROM is Simply Galaxy 3 rc2 based on 2.3.3
Thanks for all help

I think you need vibrant sbl.bin/boot.bin. Look here....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=756832&page=2
You can ask Jellette for bootloader.

It sounds to me like you flashed the i900 sbl and boot.bin in other words your phone has the i900 boot loader. You'll need to find the files to flash the t959 boot loader however be VERY VERY careful doing so as you have about a 50/50 chance of hard bricking your phone when doing so. The files aren't available on xda for that reason. You're only shot is finding a dev who has said files and is willing to help you out. Good luck!

[Q] Semi bricked Tab I Think

Ok, I used odin to first flash pit and jj4 firmware, the tab then rebooted and the logo was all messed up and fuzzy, I then put it in download mode and flashed jj5 firmware and rebooted. The tab did the same again.
The display is on but nothing being displayed.
How can I flash it to a working rom and where can I get all the files to do this?.
Any help would be great.
Thanks
Its sounds like you did it correctly. Try dowloading JJ4 from the net again and reflash that with odin. You can stil get to the yellow download screen right?

[Q] odin to froyo 2.2!??????

This may sound like a very dumb question but i am just now getting into the different things i can do with my phone. One of which is i have rooted it and installed clock work manager. I have seen A LOT of people talking about odin and using it to install froyo 2.2 on their phone. I was just wondering how you actually go about getting odin on your phone, or is it something installed on your computer to transfer files to your phone? my main objective of all of this is just to have froyo 2.2 finally installed on my phoneso if anyone could please give me the run down on this and the info i need to install 2.2 on my phone, or a web page that shows you how to install it once i have odin, it would be greatly appreciated!!!
Odin is a program used to flash .tar files (modem, kernel, system) onto your phone while in download mode.
A little poking around here (I would link you but I'm at work) and you will find the Samsung Drivers, The Odin program itself, and recently someone posted Odin files for 2.2
If you have the .zip of 2.2 (or Superclean 2.4) all you will have to do is flash the eb01 modem in Odin, then install the .zip file through CWM.
Follow ALL instructions in the threads you find to the T or it will be a pain in the ass to get your phone back.
Remember: When using Odin NEVER USE THE PHONE BUTTON. We use the PDA button for the Fascinate.
PDA = Good
Phone = brick (that's bad)

If u get the eb01 sc Odin package...it comes with rom obviously so u don't flash anything in cwm. However... future roms you want will b flashed in cwm. All u do is boot into recovery,instal zip from sd cars, choose the zip from sd card....select it...and hit ok

Ok, easy way to get froyo... go in the fascinate develpment section of xda or droid forums and look for ODIN eb01 package. It will load you up froyo, new clockwork, and root your phone all in one shot. The directions are super easy, just follow them exactly. I did mine this way, you dont have to mess with clockwork at all, ten minutes total. Let us know how you make out.

I'm at a loss here with a bricked phone

Odin froze on me looking for pit something. I'm going from rooted only di18 to the new eb13. So I can get into download mode still. Do I just need to keep trying to flash the tar in the pda or do I need to do the pit instead? Thanks
Or should I try the samsung utility, I have that too.

If you are using the full system tar, you do not need the pit. The pit is used for flashing kernels and modems.
Since you can still get into download mode, I'd just use the samsung flash tool. Worked great for me, and I came from a rooted DK28 build. It takes care of everything for you, completely wipes the phone, no need to mess around with Odin. I know Odin can be temperamental at times.

I agree. Odin is not meant for consumers.
Okay, thanks will try the samsung utility then. Thanks. Will advise on how things turn out....
I can still do this even tho the phone doesn't boot up right? I get that phone and monitor picture. But i can get to download.
The file you need for flashing now, being in the download mode, for updating to EB13, is this: http://www.multiupload.com/F0JFA0487M. This file was posted by Whosdaman, in the Development thread. You won't need the PIT file. Use Odin's PDA box to flash this ROM.

what the heck im seriously confused lol. the reason why i wanted the pit is because i was having issues with dev block mounting in recovery so i used the .pit in odin and reflashed the older recovery pasterbenut posted in his thread but now all my phone does is boot into the bootloader and the weird thing is the samsung splash dosnt come up i tried reflashing the stock dl17 rom through odin and the same thing happens i can get into recovery if i install it but i still get the dev block error or whatever it is lol
That's because that is the PIT for EC07 stock.... Which one were you looking for? Either way, if you aren't getting the boot screen, you'll probably have to flash the EC07 stock, then flash DL17, with the appropriate PIT. So far as i know, EC07 stock is the only one with bootloaders on it.
Sorry bout that. I guess i should've asked which PIT you needed. Either way, grab EC07 real production.tar from the dev section, and flash it with that PIT and go from there.
txwolf can u please come to the irc ciscogee is helping me right now

[GUIDE] Upgrading and modding NTT DoCoMo SC-01C (Japanese P1000)

Kind of a niche guide, but at least non-Japanese people owning an SC-01C have some sort of guidelines.
Before we begin
The SC-01C is the rebranded Japanese version of the P1000, locked exclusively to NTT DoCoMo. If you have this model and want to upgrade and/or flash custom ROMs with it, this guide may be able to help you.
Before beginning, you have to check your firmware version. What you'll have to download will depend on it. If you have Android 2.2 Froyo, read on, otherwise, if you're already running Android 2.3 Gingerbread skip to the Gingerbread Users section.
Also, based on experience, if you want to upgrade to other ROMs in the future you will have to keep your stock GB ROM file, your gt-p1000_mr.pit, the dbdata.tar and the entire Overcome kit (kernel and ROM). You will need all of them in the future because I've found that to install a new ROM you have to repeat the entire process of restocking to GB, then installing Overcome Kernel and ROM, then installing whatever ROM you want. It sucks, but it's the only way I've seen so far.
Froyo Users
If you're planning to install a custom ROM, you can't do it on Froyo straight away, at least not on a stock ROM with a protected bootloader. If you don't know if your bootloader is protected or not, the safest thing to do is to first upgrade your firmware to the stock Japanese Android 2.3 Gingerbread. Then you can follow the Gingerbread guide afterwards.
Froyo Users Will Need
Stock Japanese GB ROM (you can get it from here or from SamFirmware.com). The ROM is a .tar archive file, so you will also need 7-Zip or another file extracting utility to extract files from the tar file.
Odin 1.7 (higher versions will likely not hurt either)
Heimdall (in case Odin doesn't work or you aren't running Windows)
Upgrading to Gingerbread
Make sure your PC has the drivers for your Tab. If you've already connected your PC to the Tab before, you already have them. Otherwise, plug your Tab into your PC and let the drivers install automatically. This works even if you're in Download Mode. If they don't install automatically, you might need to download Samsung Kies or just the Samsung USB Driver for Mobile Phones to get the driver to install.
[FOR HEIMDALL USERS]
You will need to plug in your Tab and run zadig.exe for your drivers, which is found either in the same folder as your Heimdall.exe or in the Drivers folder in that same folder, depending on which version you have. From there, select Options -> List All Devices, then select Gadget Serial or Android USB Composite Interface, then click Install Driver.
After getting the drivers, unplug your Tab (you can keep the PC end plugged in). Turn off your Tab and plug your USB Interface cord into your PC (not the Tab just yet), then put your Tab into Download Mode. You can do this by either holding down the Power and Volume Down keys while the Tab is off, or simply holding down the Volume Down key while plugging in the cord to your Tab. If done correctly, you should see a screen with a yellow Android with a shovel, together with the words "DOWNLOAD MODE, DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!"
If you're running Windows and using Odin, extract the gt-p1000_mr.pit from the .tar archive into the same folder as the archive. Otherwise, if you're running Heimdall, extract the entire archive into the same folder as your Heimdall.exe.
Plug your Tab back in if you haven't already. The next step will vary for Odin and Heimdall users.
[FOR ODIN USERS]
Open Odin and check if there is a yellow box amongst all the white ones which says [COM4] or something like that, it doesn't matter as long as the box is yellow.
Click PIT and select the gt-p1000_mr.pit you extracted from the stock Japanese GB .tar file, then click Start. This will re-partition the device, and it is absolutely critical that this is done first, as missing this step can cause a brick.
After the PIT flashing is successful, click Reset, then click PDA and select the stock Japanese GB .tar file, and click Start. You will have to wait for a few minutes while the ROM flashes. Progress bars will appear both on the Tab screen and Odin.
NOTE: If after flashing you boot into Recovery Mode and you get the following error:
Code:
E: part(1) DATA Checksum Error
E: part(1) Checksum Error
Internal MMC checksum verify failed.
Then you will have to download and flash dbdata.tar as PDA (Google "P1000 dbdata.tar"; it's about 1.25MB or so). That should solve it.
[FOR HEIMDALL USERS]
Since you already extracted the contents of the stock Japanese GB .tar file into the same folder as your Heimdall.exe, all you have to do is run the following command from a Terminal window (or Command Prompt if you're running Windows):
Code:
heimdall flash --repartition --primary-boot boot.bin --cache cache.rfs --dbdata dbdata.rfs --factoryfs factoryfs.rfs --pit gt-p1000_mr.pit --modem modem.bin --param param.lfs --secondary-boot Sbl.bin --kernel zImage --verbose
Wait a few minutes while Heimdall flashes the ROM. It should inform you when the flashing is successful.
After the flashing is successful, you should now be running stock Android 2.3 Gingerbread. You can stop here or continue on to the Gingerbread Users section for flashing a custom ROM.
Gingerbread Users
Since you're already on Gingerbread, which is the latest stock Android version you have, you're probably reading this guide to find out how to install custom ROMs. Personally I've found, after bricking my Tab a couple of times, that trying to flash custom ROMs from the stock Japanese GB ROM doesn't work unless you flash the Overcome kernel and ROM first.
Hence, the first step to getting a custom ROM running on an SC-01C is to flash the Overcome kernel. For instructions on how to do this, go to the guide thread at the end of the paragraph. You can skip the restocking part, as you're already running stock GB. Instead, follow the instructions from Step 7 of the guide, found on Page 10. After following the instructions there and flashing the Overcome kernel and ROM, you should now be able to flash any other custom ROM you want, following the instructions for the regular P1000.
Getting the Overcome kernel and ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1881981
Questions, Answers and Possible Issues
My SC-01C is stuck at boot logo after trying (and failing) to flash custom ROM.
Solving this issue depends on your firmware version and whether or not you can still get into Download Mode. If you can, just follow the instructions in this guide exactly and the problem should be solved.
My SC-01C is stuck at phone-exclamation mark!-computer screen.
This is also likely because of a failed ROM flashing or firmware upgrade. In that case, you can use Heimdall OneClickUnbrick to fix it. A guide to do so can be found here.
My SC-01C isn't detected by Odin, and/or Heimdall produces a "Claiming interface failed" error.
Your drivers aren't being detected and either need to be installed or reinstalled. To force a driver reinstall on Windows, plug in your Tab, go to the System Tray, right-click Safely Remove Hardware and Eject Media, then select Open Devices and Printers. Find your Tab's device name from there, then right-click it and select Remove Device, then unplug your Tab and plug it in again. The drivers should reinstall automatically. If they still don't reinstall, download Samsung Kies or the Samsung USB Driver for Mobile Phones and try again.
For other possible questions or concerns, please reply to this thread.

You'll need to modify it further to get it to work with other providers. I'm personally not sure if it's a hardware or a software hack, because I paid someone to unlock my Tab back when I didn't know jack **** about modding. If it was already unlocked prior to being bricked, try to flash a new ROM over it. Either way, please hit back if you find the answer so I can add it to the FAQ section.
Hi! I just got the SC-01C & it was already loaded with a custom ICS firmware. Would it be ok to flash another custom firmware DIRECTLY? or Do I still need to flash the GB first?

how to root without change stock rom?
It is possible ?

finally found a thread that that covers japanese p1000.
I have a one it was given to me and still on android froyo 2.2 it is been unlocked by software and i don't know if its been rooted or not.
for the past days i've been looking over the net for this particular device to be upgrade to the latest jellybean rom.this will be very helpful for me since i dont know anything about flashing. been reading threads over and over bec i dont want to brick this device for i use it as a secondary phone
Will flashing to the original docomo GB 2.3... stock firmware make the tab in an locked state again? and is the new rom like the cyanogenmod 10.1 or 10.2 have a built in unlock?

No, 2,3 has an unlocked bootloader. Just follow the guide carefully step by step and you should be fine.

No problem, ask away. I made a lot of mistakes by experimenting on my own, so I made this guide to make the process easier for people with our model.

I am trying to install the stock rom using odin. I flash the pit then reboot go back to dl mode and flash the tar(stock) i think i hosed the device...Odin says it passed and it reset...but all i get is docommo screen then after the samsung galaxy screen and it keeps blinking ever few minutes like it cant reboot...I ALSO tried flashing the newer Stock 2.3? and the same issue...
I think I may have mucked up the software but can get into DL mode...any ideas?
I followed the directions but still no joy....Perhaps I am dense...
But basically
Flash pit
reboot
Flash stock
Blinking samsung
Odin says reset and no errors...

This happened to me as well, it's why I wrote this guide. Try the Overcome method that I posted in the guide, or search for it in this forum. Also, are you using the stock Japanese GB ROM or just a normal stock ROM? You need to use the stock Japanese Gingerbread ROM. I provided links in the guide.

Don't flash them all at once. Look at the Overcome guide carefully.
pls help
hi.. im new here and i have a problem with modding my sc01c tab. im already running on official gingerbread SC01COMKE2 firmware and im also rooted. i followed all the steps but always ended up with a soft brick. heres what i did.. i downloaded overcome files from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1881981 and followed step by step guide. i flashed Overcome_Kernel_v4.0.0.tar and boot into recovery mode.. then flashed Overcome_7_Series_v4.1.0_Wipe.. but it says cannot open BAD FILE. i redownload even the no wipe version but same happens. i tried to restock using GB-Stock-Safe-v5 but it failed in odin.. whats weird is that when i flashed my tab with official firmware it succeeded without a problem.. can you guys help me here? what did i miss or do wrong? pls dont hate me much im just a noob.
