So, I used the Online Nandroid app, it detects the T599 as "codinatmo" and doesn't have a patch available.

Manually chose the "Samsung Galaxy S III mini GT-l8190" patch and installed.

Was able to back up boot.img and recovery.img, both 16MB.

You still be able to root by flashing cwm recovery with odin, then flash supersu zip in cwm.

I rooted my t599n with cydia impactor. took all of 30 sec :D then I used oden to flash cwm (heres where it goes wrong) used wrong cwm file I guess it didn't work reflashed using a different cwm file. boom it booted into cwm recovery. I then installed CM 10.1 - 2013925 said complete. reboot phone ...... now it reboots into cwm :( tried installing stock recovery to no avail. every file I try to install through CWM just says aborted. tried to connect using adb and oden phone no longer visable by either. can anyone point me in right direction to a useable phone?

Got Oden to recognize phone. able to flash stock recovery.tarmd5. Big ups to Unjustified Dev for providing file on thread. after push and reboot phone rebooted into recovery. rebooted phone from recovery .... phone rebooted into recovery :mad: removed battery rebooted ...... booted into CM10.1 so far all functions work. would greatly appreciate a stock image in tar format if available so I can restore to stock if cm 10 gives me probs. thanks to all devs for there continued support on phones that would suck with out there hard work..

Dear devs,

I'm recently self employed and have time to assist if that would be helpful. In not much of a coder but I'm proficient with windows and Linux and cab certainly help with writing instructions and such. I just purchased a T-Mobile SGH-t599 do I can also test most of the stuff made for that device and record the takes via screen cast out whatever method is most helpful.

Odin is not working, nor is manually copying files and trying to flash in stock, on the following:

Successful Recovery and Root procedure

Here is what worked for me:

1. I downloaded the recovery located here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=45599602&postcount=273

2. Power off the phone

3. Boot into ODIN download mode: Volume down, home, and power releasing as soon as it vibrates

4. Start Odin

5. Ensure that only Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time are checked

6. Click PDA and select the recovery from step 1

7. Click Start

!!!Warning It appears attempting to use things like ROM manager to reboot or Quickboot will stick you where you can only boot to recovery mode. !!!

To fix this I did the following:

From CWM Recovery, where I was stuck, I flashed this stock recovery:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=44944818&postcount=27

The phone then successfully rebooted. I then installed a root file explorer and have successfully deleted the T-Mobile bloatware we all enjoy so much. The summation would be that everything needed to root these phones is present on the boards just decentralized. Hopefully once the procedures are better known we can all pull together in one thread with the instructions detailed at the front.

Hello guys, I was wondering if you guys can guide me in reverting from CM10.1 to the Stock FW it came with out the box?

There are two ways to get back to stock ROM. One is to restore a nandroid backup of it but I take it you didn't make one before flashing a new ROM.

helpme need backup of efs fir repair imei null have samsun t599 tmobile
[Galaxy S III Mini General] :
Backup of efs would mean someone would be sharing their IMEI, and in some countries that's illegal and I"m not sure if it's permitted on xda.

Look into imei repair softwares for android on google, and fairly certain that in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2626212, there was a leaked IMEI software changer, perhaps you could use that in an attempt to fix your IMEI?
[Galaxy S III Mini General] tys0n:
Exothermic is right. I think it's against xda rules, and no one want his phone to get cloned by imei. It usually can be repaired with jtag box and maybe even within the factoryApp. Look for samsung codes for "secret settings".

Help

Hey guys

I been having a strange issue with this phone. Every time I power on the phone. Before it used to display "samsung galaxy exhibit sgh-t599n" on boot. Today all I see is a image that looks messed up. Like a corrupted image. I tried flashing through odin and did not fix the boot image. But the weird thing. Once it passes boot, the image goes back to normal and displays "samsung" and the rom boots up fine. I looked around online. And I came across something having to do with .lfs folder. How do I fix this?

Thanks

Looks like your bootloader is newer than the flash file, therefore you can't downgrade. You must use an equal or newer flash file than your currently loaded version.

Initial post so I can track this via the app. I'm getting the metro PCs version.

I have the kernel source downloaded and I'm downloading the dump

Haha you guys Samsung is open source the kernel is on their open source site. Easy to build cwm send me a boot.IMG. Im getting this device to dev like my name says plus its on sale:p

Also if you want a device tree start from the galaxy s3 mini its a good base oliverg96 has it set up nice thats what I will base mine from.

I will upload the kernel for you guys but try this adb pull proc/config.gz and if it exists post it please :)

This is from the kernel source CONFIG_ARCH_U8500=y so yes base it all from him I cant wait to get this phone

Compiling a kernel have no idea if you can use it maybe via odin thats you all defconfig I will upload the kernel for this phone later

[Galaxy S III Mini General] :
How exactly did you brick it? You may want to wait a while, as I think a stock firmware is being made soon. But in the mean time, download odin, and the stock recovery.img (search through these pages for the files). First enable usb debugging, by going to system, developer options and enable usb debugging. Then put your phone into download mode (turn your phone off, press the decrease volume button, home button and the power button, and then press volume up). Then open up Odin, put recovery.tar.md5 in pda. Make sure auto reboot and F.Reset are checked, then flash.

[MENTION=1476970]goldfingerfif[/MENTION], Could you also dd mmcblk0p16 and save as modem.bin?

Thats where it goes when updating baseband on i8190

Like this:

show_progress(0.100000, 0);
ui_print("GT-I8190 modem.bin update");
ui_print(" I8190XXAMG1 ");
assert(package_extract_file("modem.bin", "/tmp/modem.bin"),
show_progress(0.100000, 50);
write_raw_image("/tmp/modem.bin", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p16"),
delete("/tmp/modem.bin"));
show_progress(0.100000, 100);
ui_print("zip by tys0n");

Then I guess it gets extracted to "/modemfs" upon reboot.
