Problems with 6.0.0.8

Now even I'm having problems with 6.0.0.8. Can't navigate to subdirectories beneath /emmc/ (the removable sdcard is "emmc"), like /emmc/roms/. When I copy a file to /emmc via adb shell, CWM quits with a mysterious message about being unable to find the device for /emmc.

Flashing files from /sdcard (internal storage) works fine. Very strange. /emmc is the removable sdcard, which is FAT formatted... I suppose it could be corrupt, as FAT often is.

Hmm...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] chen2008:
Did you install the zadig driver using correct USB device (serial device)? I had this error prior to doing that...see step by step instr. given couple of posts earlier..

---------- Post added at 03:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:02 PM ----------

When I did a backup of my device, it got stored to the internal sd-card 16GB, not the inserted micro-sd which is 32GB. I am wondering that the other option 'backup to internal sd' is, perhaps that would backup to the inserted micro-sd card..should try it out :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] motosuki:
yes.. but i don't find "Samsung USB Composite Device", instead i find "Samsung Mobile USB CDC Composite Device". When i try to install the driver, it failed. See the attachment.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] chen2008:
Do you see a Gadget serial item? Use that..

Also try running as administrator in case there are security issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] motosuki:
yes..after i uninstalled kies. i try again.. not working... maybe i'll wait the zip file :) thx anyway :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] giangp1:
The same in my PC (Win7, 64bit). Maybe Heimdall does not support win7 64bit.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] motosuki:
oya right... i use windows 8 64 bit... maybe that's the problem
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] pandamerah:
Happened to me too. If flashing from external sdcard, the file not found error will occur. I think it changed the name of the zip file somehow.

what happened:

1. i copied cm-9-20120719-UNOFFICIAL-p6200.zip into external sdcard

2. in cwm, it shows the file name as: emmc-cm-9-20120719-UNOFFICIAL-p6200.zip

3. there's an extra emmc on the filename

How to make *.tar.md5 from *.img to flash via Odin?

Please help me!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] chen2008:
I am also on 64bit, but could flash the recovery using same instructions...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] giangp1:
In heimdall suite, run drivers/zadig.exe, click Options, stick list all devices. Choose gadget serial, then winUSB....driver and Replace Driver. Heimdall will work good with no error.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Vivified:
Seeing the issues they're having it's probably best to stay on the CWM you're on. If you still want to change, I can make the tar.md5 for you.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] giangp1:
Thanks! I fixed drivers in my PC so I can flash CWM 5.5.0.4 via heimdall.

Anyway, thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] aorth:
Mobile Odin != Odin

First things first, Mobile Odin is different than Odin. Odin is an leaked tool from Samsung. Mobile Odin is an application someone wrote. I know they both have the word "Odin" in the name, but they are not related.

Second, Mobile Odin can flash the .img files just fine, but apparently you have the name the file "recovery.img" or else it won't see it. It seems to recognize any file which ends in ".md5" though. That's annoying.

Third, I don't know if the md5'd images are a requirement for Odin. Are they actually required to make "Odin" tarballs? Has anyone tried just tarring an image and flashing it? I tried to get Odin working in my Windows VM today and I got lost in drivers and ended up wanting to shoot myself in the face.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Dushaine:
It works ! Thanks Aorth ! :D

ClockworkMod 6.0.1.0

Looks like koush made a mistake with regards to /emmc (he forgot a trailing slash), and it should be fixed in CWM 6.0.1.0.

I'll upload builds when I get a chance...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] madkhaz:

Download links for ClockworkMod 6.0.1.0

Here are some download links for CWM 6.0.1.0, which has a few important fixes (including the weird emmc "missing slash" bug from 6.0.0.8):

P6200/P6201/P6200L: Mediafire (md5: 4554f940ac0064dba3e1c5e12469efd2)

P6210/P6211/P6210L: Mediafire (md5: e71feb63ee44a7e809b6c2e7ae6d6e7d)

Flash from Heimdall. I still suck at making Odin images, maybe Vivified can make (and test), then I'll mirror them.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Dushaine:
Just flashed with Mobile Odin and it seems to work pretty well.

Quick reminder : you need to rename the file as recovery.img

It works great. Was able to do a backup and restore. My thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] mobilx:
I couldn't get adb to work on cwm 6.0.1.0. Device registers as mtp and not as adb in Windows 7 64bit so I can't regularly install the driver.

It works fine In CWM 5.0.2.7.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] aorth:
Hmm, I can't remember if I have used adb on CWM 6.0.1.0. I'll try when I get home. :)

Edit: adb works fine in recovery for me. I use it quite often actually, to `adb push` files to /emmc/ before flashing, as well as `adb reboot download` etc. I wonder what's up with yours? I'm on Linux, for the record.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] hlb3:
No issues with Mobile Odin after renaming the file here either.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] mobilx:
Sorry, maybe it is just my windows or maybe it is with windows users in general. I think I tried all different combinations with no success. It would be great if someone else can check it.

Flashed latest version using heimdall in Windows 64, no issues. Thanks aorth..

Doing backup now..to inserted micro-sd. Which it calls 'internal sd'.

Much slower than earlier when it was to internal sd. I guess it has to do with the fact that mine is Class 4 micro-sd....?

[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] freak4dell:
Thank you for your post. It's kind of annoying when developers expect us to know everything. That being said, I don't think the OP can be faulted much, because it sounds like he doesn't have a Windows system. OP, maybe you could quote pandamerah's post in your first post, so that you don't have to deal with novices as much?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] ethanmars:
You helped me very well.. I thank you so much!

You saved me from giving up. I googled here and there with keywords like "installing cwm using heimdall", "cwm heimdall p6200", and etc but I failed to find my answer. From my google-ing, I understood that heimdall could help users with automated ROM/kernel/etc flashing if it was packaged by the devs or etc.. img files can only be directed if u inserted the pit files.. And heimdall is open source and improving and works for galaxy series ad the latest version might have some problem so I downloaded the 1.3.1. What's worse is the official site for heimdall suite is down but i managed to find 1.3.1 anyways.

2 days later i found your post. I think your super clear step must be on any OP that encourages the use of heimdall. Maybe you can add "cd C:\heimdall" to make it fool proof.. My tab is now with cwm 6.0.1.0.. I felt so hopeless and stupid when i struggled to make heimdall work coz I used to have experience in ROM flashing/rooting/unrooting for i9000, i9100, p1000, z710e and n7000 using odin/revolutionary respectively.

thanks pandamerah and the devs who made all these (rooting/flashing/etc) possible. :good:

my tab would be lame without you guys.. :)

but there's 1 place i havent searched for: youtube.. :silly:
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] gigiviertola:
About brick

I don't know if I really understood, but i read in some forums that the reason of the brick is:

1. a firmaware bug of emmc

2. a kernel instruction (mmc_cap_erase) called from recovery (as well samsung stock) in factory reset.

I read that if a recovery doesn't call that instruction, is safe to make factory reset.:confused:

I've a galaxy tab p6200 with Austrian rom 4.0.4, with root permission got by temporary cwm.

If I flash ClockworkMod 6.0.1.0 over the stock one, do I solve this factory reset problem?

Hey mobilx,

I have the same problem trying to use ADB in v6.0.1.0 on my Windows 7 laptop. When I plugged in while booted into CWM, Windows did install an ADB driver, but I haven't really been able to issue any commands. adb devices lists the tablet as offline.

Does it have to do with the checkbox under CONNECT AS for Media device (MTP) in Settings>Storage? I can't seem to uncheck that setting in order to turn it off.

ADB seems to work OK while booted in CM9, but I can't seem to get su to work through adb shell using Windows or Ubuntu - "permission denied."

ADB works well in CWM v6.0.1.0 on my computer running Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit. I can also call su with adb shell successfully.

I can't remember if I ever tried using ADB with Windows 7 while booted into garyd9's CWM.

Is this behavior to be expected?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] mobilx:
Hey ;)

No, CWM has its own kernel and has nothing in common with the settings in the ROM. The ADB works well in garyd9's CWM both from windows and Linux. It's strange that in the CWM v6.0.1.0 does work in Linux but it doesn't in windows.

backup too small with CWM 6.0.1.0

I successfully installed the CWM 6.0.1.0, but when I do a backup while it measures only 16 MB.With CWM 5.8.1.8 is over 2 GB. you work regularly? Can anyone help me? :confused: thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] manxam:
The backups folder will only contain a very small backup, usually about 16-17Mb. There will be another directory called "blobs" which will contain the rest of the backup. From what I understand CWM is now doing differential backups and is only backing up things that have changed since the last nandroid backup. The blobs dir is the common and the backups is just the reference files.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] lillypad_33:
For some reason, no matter what I did, I couldn't get heimdall to work.

There was always a usb device error. I tried in different modes, and made sure that the debugging was on ( I tried it in different ways ).

I finally ended up flashing an older version of clockworkmod after using adb reboot recovery.

In the end, ClockworkMod wouldn't reckognize my external card, but I was able to get everything flashed ok.

The instructions at the beginning of this say to hold down the power plus down button.

When I do that, it says that it's going into recovery and I have the option to continue by pressing the up button, or cancel and boot the system by pressing the down button.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Awology:
i battled with installing via heimdall until, but once i installed the correct driver and used the command prompt line rather than the windows application which i could not get to load the file.

Command prompt seems like the easiest way to do this.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] samarth14feb:
U can use mobile Odin lite to flash it through your tablet itself (mobile Odin is different from PC Odin) , its the easiest way. Lite version is available for free.

Just download mobile odin lite

Download supporting software for ur mobile odin tablet

Download cmw 6.0.1.0 and rename it as recovery and place it in external or internal storage

Open mobile Odin and select flash recovery -select d renamed file recovery.img

All Done!

Use At your own risk. I did it using above steps, worked fine.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] samarth14feb:
Rooting ICS is easy. Just download temporary clock work mod (touch) version and install it through Samsung recovery. Next step is to install hc root.zip through temporary clock work mod. Once u restart, temporary cclock work mod will disappear.I got it d same way :) I will ask u go take caution as there is a brick bug affecting ICS devices.. so anything u do is at your own risk. :cool:

Tried it... doesn't work... at first I couldn't find the .zip then in CWM I mounted emmc, (the .zip is on my ext_SD btw) then install zip from internal SD and found the .zip, hit install and at first it starts, but after a few seconds I get the message can't mount emmc :confused:

I think I'll go bakc to stock ICS (without CWM) first and then give it another try. Or does anyone have any other suggestions?

Yes, and apparently with everyone else's also. Search this thread for "external" and you'll find several mentions of the problem. As far as I can tell, it's at least consistent.

[P6200] Flashable CWM 6.0.1.0

I couldn't get it to work using Heimdall or Odin.

After a lot of trial-and-error I stumbled upon an older (flashable) version from CWM here.

So, what I did is simply replace the "recovery.img" inside the "zip" file with the one from this thread (after renaming it obviously) and flashed it through recovery, and it worked!

Anyways, I thought I'd share what I did in case it helps someone else.
