Wow I have to say that is beyond a thorough and very well explained guide I look forward to it here and you answered a lot of noobish questions to without freaking out lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Aali1011:
Boy am i glad to see you here. But yes droidstyle's guide is a good illustration of how odin is very much so integrated in conjunction with the phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] skeeterpro:
Chainfire has a Mobile Odin on Google Play. Used it on my 7.7 and ..wow! Way too cool. Got real familiar with ADB with the TF (necessity!) but you;re right...ODIN is slick! Not sure if Chainfire's Mobile Odin will work for the SGSII (getting mine from VZW next week) but if it does it'll be more than welcome!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] neyenlives:
Odin method is far better than the CWR (clockwork recovery) method. I never understood exactly why, but if you load your software using Odin, it will work really well every time assuming you don't mess up. Clockwork Recovery flashed roms tend to be a bit hit or miss, they tend to have more incomplete flashes....it just doesn't seem to do as thorough a job as Odin.

I always choose the Odin method given the choice. I will wait until I get around a pc to do this, would really rather not be sitting somewhere flashing in clockwork and get a bad flash and end up without a phone until I can get back to a pc with Odin to fix it.....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cujo6801:
I couldn't agree with more...

SENT FROM THE DOG POUND
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Aali1011:
I agree with this too but I don't think we are going to see many roms come in a Odin package. Regarding the Fascinate I think we mainly had stock system packages. In the beginning of development for the phone on a lot of the Touchwiz based roms we had Odin packages too IIRC. When it progressed to CM7 & CM9 it was all done through the phone. Its all up to our developers. That is my main concern for this phone. Time will only tell who we will see but from the looks of it thanks to Verizon's ploy to destroy unlimited data a lot of people seem to be hopping on the bandwagon.

With talks already of having developers from all carriers having a "Kitchen" of sorts where we can get roms and maybe kernels from say the AT&T version or Sprint version that work with our phones, things are looking good and I hope to have a repeat of the experience if not better then what I had with the Fascinate. The devs MADE that phone what it was and I thank them wholeheartedly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] e_droid:
This is very interesting (coming from rooting on a Droid X)

I was watching videos of people using Odin on Youtube and heard about that counter in the phones, got really nervous until I read that they can be reset. Very excited.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Pan Tralaliński:
so noone still has the verizon phone version ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] neyenlives:
Im not sure why you say that. Every rom and radio file that came out for the Charge was released as both....and they even provided you an "empty" CWR flashable file which you could use to flash anything you like.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] neyenlives:
They just started shipping out today.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Aali1011:
As I said before, that is how it was for the Fascinate and it will be up to our developers how they want to do things. We both can agree every phone is going to have its own unique way as far as development is concerned. We will have to wait and see what happens. I have my doubts due to what i have seen so far from other Samsung phones besides the Charge. I may very well be wrong but at this point idk idc and i just want my damn phone:D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] neyenlives:
I guess my point was we have the ability to use Odin to flash if we want to. It's not up to someone else, if you want to use Odin you can. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] silasrye:
So, as I understand it, to root this device we use Odin to flash an insecure kernel. Is there one available? Just got my device, loving it but sorely missing root.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kmoore11:
I'm looking forward to this. I've done a ton of rooting and flashing for my Incredible and some friends' HTC phones, but have very little experience with ODIN. I used it once to root my Galaxy Tab, butthat was all. Seemed pretty easy, but I thought the HTC method was a piece of cake too. I'm hoping to be pleasantly surprised.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] acetkbez:
Anyone know how to root this? I just got my phone today...Pebble blue 16gb
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] OnceAMatrixMan:
Thanks Aali. That helped, but as another Inc user I'm going to have to find the Odin thread and read up on it some more. Things sure are different over here. ;-)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DebianDog:
How about today. If this safe to use on VZ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] neyenlives:
I haven't seen any files to flash on the VZW device yet.....why don't you look here in the development section for yourself man....

Hi,

Where can I find a guide to use Odin for SGH-i897 bricked? Is this the proper tool to use with a bricked phone? I bought it bricked, cheap because it may just be a paperweight. No screen activity at all. I was told that it died during an upgrade attempt likely by another newbie such as myself. I can get it to show up in device manager as Samsung Modem, and Samsung composite device. I'm assuming Odin can somehow talk to the phone in this mode. I don't understand how to setup odin. I downloaded a firmware file UCKE3 and expanded it, but beyond that and loading the PIT file into odin, I'm unsure of the correct procedure. I looked at your guide, but don't have the requisite knowledge to know which guide is the right one for me or if this is the right tool.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] piiman:
Find the stock firmware for your phone. Fire up odin. Select pda and select the firmware you downloaded. If odin is communicating with the phone the top left com (I believe its com) will be colored in and the start button will be clickable. Click start and wait for it to finish. Its really very easy once you see it done once. Good luck

P's don't uncompress it unless it was zipped for the download
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobcov:
Hey, thanks much. I found the same information on my own, but I thank you for your reply nonetheless. I can now get into the phone through the incredibly nice, free MobilGo software from Wondershare. This confirms what one of the senior members here already told me and which me, the noobie who knows nothing, insisted wasn't true: The screen is dead. I have to assume the guy lied when he said the sreen died as a result of bricking. However, it is true that the phone absolutely did not respond on any USB ports when I first got it so somebody was doing something. Is there any possiblity of firmware causing the screen not to come on, but at the same time MobilGo shows a snapshot of the current state of the screen? I'm kind of doubting there's anymore I can do with firmware, but I'm open to suggestions. Since there are no cracks on the screen, I'm going to take the phone apart and look for hairline cracks somewhere... Regardless, the phone has played the role intended: Taught me a hell of a lot, especially doing all of this "blind" with no screen EDIT:Hah, surprise. The guy from Craigslist lied. Imagine that? Phone was not only bricked, but they ripped the ribbon cable off while apparently attempting to change out the screen. So, I have a phone that "works" but is blind. I'll hold on to it and see if I ever find a dead one with a good ribbon cable.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] _MetalHead_:
Check your app drawer for SuperSU. If it's there click it and see if you can update the binary. If you can, you're rooted. If you can't or if it's not there than you need to repeat the process until it works.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Znichols513:
Ok. It is there and it asked me to update, and that part worked. So... I guess I'm rooted then? I can move on to the bootloader unlocking then?

Yep, youre rooted. Now go and get that bootloader unlocked and flash CleanROM!

Okay so I rooted and unlocked BL. I also used fastboot to flash CWM, but when I try to boot into recovery, it just gets stuck on the "HTC Quietly Brilliant" page and a message in red text underneath.

I don't know any website with all the activity names, but I remember that it wasn't so hard to find it.

I could also help You finding the right line in AndroidManifest.xml if You had some problems or didn't know how to do that :)
