Saw this post when trying to find my hard bricked solution. My phone is dead no lights nothing. When I put the battery in and connect I am getting Qualcomm as stated in all the posts 9008.
It is detected using QFIL but I do not have the correct files I believe. I need
rawprogram0.xml
patch0.xml
prog_emmc_firehose_xxxx.mbn
I am not sure what to do here. I have downloaded some files but I believe the wrong phone type.
Help...... please

On the same path

I am in a similar situation as you. What I found out is that the *.tar.md5 file can actually contain mbn files. I used winrar to extract them. It still did not do the trick for QFIL as it is missing the xml files.

Did you ever find the XML files?
I have the same exact problem and was going to extract the mbn from a stock rom, but that's pointless without them.

[Q] Only 3 files in I5800XXJPM.zip

HI I have downloaded the I5800XXJPM.zip firmware but it has only 3 files in it. Now i am confused how to flash it in Odin. I have flashed earlier using both the method like different files and one package but this file is different. I think i need to make a tar file before.
files that is under the zip file is: factoryfs.rfs, modem.bin and zImage.
Please suggest me the right way.
probably you open the tar file, those three files are inside the tar.

not its a zip file which has a size of 125 Mb. Previously I flashed my odin with both ways (one package and also with 4 different files) but both of those files were different. Can u give me a link so that I download the right file. Make sure its XXJPM coz i will then flash to Indroid 4.1, currently i m in XXJPF.

1% battery mod is working only with fugumod 2.4 kernals!!
what you want to know about themes../??
Just go to themes section download any theme you like..
read all the instructions..
generally there are two to three files which you have to replace with old files in system/framework folder.
some have themed apks also.
you have to replace them with old apks in system/app
that should be helpful!!
PS A thanks buttob do exist there if u dont know !!
The missing files were logo.png and cache.rfs.
I think that missing logo.png is not big deal, but I don't know what cahe.rfs is supposed to do.

make sure the radio is correct (phone.csc) since that contains the telephony device drivers and you must exersise extra care,
remember most SGY roms are built for GSM/Intl. Version,
try and asking anyone with a CDMA version if they have successfully flashed a custom rom with it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1777579
From the link above - there are several dump codes fro example system , recovery, modem etc.
I want to know
is PDA = SYSTEM ?
Modem = Modem ?
then Which dump to take as CSC ?

Samsung Galaxy On5 Pro Rom Port

Someone can give me a rom and boot dump of the Galaxy On5 Pro (the one with the Exynos 3475), possibly debloated?
Thanks in advance

Galaxy On5 system dump does not exist. Download the stock ROM from sammobile. Rename .tar.md5 to .tar, take system.img file inside .tar using winrar, then extract system.img with the tool called ImageExtractor (search in XDA). To extract system.img, just drag and drop img file to ImageExtractor.exe. ., you'll see the "system_" folder. . .
To deodex the system, use Lollipop Deodexer
The boot.img can be taken from .tar file.
Do you have Galaxy J2? Are you trying to port the ROM just for Theme Center? Porting ROM from device with the same SoC is possible

Yes, i know that procedure, but i asked here hoping that someone have already a dump ready :laugh:
For the images i use a tool called ext4explorer (i don't know if the name is correct, but is something similiar to this)
No, i'm not porting this rom to the j2, but to the S5 Mini, because it haven't already Marshmallow, even if it's capable to run in. I've done some researches and i found that the exynos3475 is very similiar to the one used in the S5 Mini (exynos 3470). The On5 Pro is the unique 3475 device that have a non-carrier bloated/locked ROM, so i'll work on it.
Thanks for the tricks:good:

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 never saw someone uploading a zip64 file as a rom, are you sure about what you're doing? ?
Anyway, try extracting it onto the pc hdd/ssd making sure you have enough space to do it, then put the rom on the phone's sd card via usb cable, that should do it :good:
Btw, what rom are you trying to flash?

I'm trying to flash nougat firmware, but cannot to extract the firmware, always stuck on 90% (can't read I/O device error). When I see the firmware info on winrar it seem that use zip64 archive format (zip64 library), because the content after extracting is 3gb, I think that's the problem while extracting. My laptop is low specification, also I'm trying to transfer to another pc using usb flashdisk but I got stuck while transferring, transfer failed. I never seem like this before , cannot to transfer unable to extract, wtf? Firmware corrupted? I think not.

The firmware is downloaded from samsung-firmware.org, region asia INS. I was download marshmallow firmware too and flash it to my phone but I don't see any problem while extracting the firmware, I'm using another pc with operating system window 10 64bit. I think the problem is my pc can't handle/read zip64 format even using winrar or 7-zip with latest version. The dialogue show error mssg "problem read file, I/O device error".

On the site you linked, every firmware is in zip format, so ready to flash. I can't find any zip64 archive.
If you still face the problem, try looking up the firmware on sammobile

I'm not sure is the firmware in zip format or zip64 format, but while repairing the firmware it detect as zip64, don't know. Maybe the firmware is brocken, damage, cause trying to extract many times. Anyway thanks for help.
Maybe the file is corrupt.Changing compression method won't help.You can't repair an archive.Just download it again.
